Chapter 1312 Real Madrid is a dog!

Laurent Blanc, the former captain of the French national team, is the core of the defense that won the World Cup in [-].

One that Ferguson can't forget, even at the age of 35, he will be brought from Inter Milan to Manchester United, and he will be entrusted with important tasks, hoping that he can take over Stam's vacancy and provoke Manchester United's defense.

After retiring, he first coached Bordeaux. In the first season, he took the team to the runner-up position of Ligue [-], almost defeating the traditional overlord Lyon. In the second season, he directly led the team to win the Ligue [-] and the French League Cup.

After the World Cup in South Africa, Laurent Blanco replaced Domenech as the head coach of the national team. In the [-] European Cup, he stopped in the quarter-finals and lost to the unstoppable Spanish team at the time. Later, Blanco also left the national team coach to take charge of the Ligue [-] upstart Paris Saint-Germain.

Under the coaching of Blanco, Paris Saint-Germain has achieved a qualitative change in France's domestic performance in the past three seasons, winning three Ligue [-] titles in a row, achieving three consecutive championships, and has always been stable in the top eight in the Champions League.

It can be said that just for one thing, Blanco's coaching performance in the past eight years can be said to be brilliant, which makes people have to look at him with admiration.

And this season, Paris Saint-Germain has established an early advantage in the Ligue [-]. After ten rounds of the league, they have already led their opponents by five points. They have won eight out of ten games and two draws to remain unbeaten, but such results have long been taken for granted.

Whether it is the management of Paris Saint-Germain or Laurent Blanc, they are very eager to make a breakthrough in this year's Champions League, at least to break through the quarter-finals and reach the semi-finals.

But no one thought that in the group stage, Paris Saint-Germain's opponent would be Real Madrid.

Last season, Paris Saint-Germain encountered Barcelona in the group stage. They also defeated Barcelona [-]-[-] at home.

Faced with Real Madrid this season, Blanco is naturally ambitious and wants to kill his opponent at home.

Unexpectedly, the master midfielder Zidane and the top scorer Yang Yang are co-coached. So far this season, Real Madrid, which has won La Liga and the Champions League so far, is on the offensive.

Real Madrid actually fell for it!

…………

…………

Blanco has been standing on the sidelines since the opening and never sat down.

The Frenchman in a neat suit looked a little nervous. From time to time, he walked to the sidelines, shouted at the players on the field, and used gestures to instruct them to adjust the team's tactics. But more often, he stood there, habitually scratching his chin, observing the changes in the situation on the field.

His brows were tightly furrowed all the time, like those icebergs in the North Pole that would never melt.

At the beginning of the game, he noticed that Real Madrid's tactics were a bit strange, but he didn't think much about it.

The goalkeeper is Keylor Navas, the defense is Marcelo, Vermaelen, Ramos and Carvajal, the midfield is lined up with David Silva, Toni Kroos, Mascherano and Di Maria, and the double forwards are Yang Yang and Suarez.

The four-four-two formation is not surprising. Real Madrid often played this formation last season, but the difference in the game is that Real Madrid played a little negatively. From the beginning, they did not show the momentum of being sure to win and taking the initiative to attack.

So far this season, Real Madrid can be said to be on the offensive, the offense is very sharp, and the defense is also very good, which makes everyone talk about it. They think that Real Madrid under the co-coach of Zidane and Yang Yang is playing beautiful offensive football.

Blanco himself thought so too, but what he didn't expect was that tonight Real Madrid adopted a balanced, even conservative tactical strategy, instead of taking the initiative to attack, but focused on restraining Paris Saint-Germain's offense.

……

Paris Saint-Germain's attack relies heavily on Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

There has been an obvious change in the Swedish center forward this season, that is, when the team switches from defense to offense, he will actively withdraw and look more like a midfielder. The purpose is to respond to the ball from the backcourt and organize and plan the overall offensive trend.

Verratti and Motta are fast forwards, especially Motta. They will often be in the same position as Ibrahimovic.

In this case, Lavezzi's Aurier behind him is Paris Saint-Germain's weapon to open up the two sides.

To a certain extent, this style of play has absorbed the tactics of Barcelona in the Champions League final. At that time, Messi's retreat was impressive, and his ball and ball were also very interesting. Blanco wanted Ibrahimovic to play this role.

In the frontcourt, Paris Saint-Germain also has a high center forward Cavani, so there is no need to worry about offense.

This style of play can be described as unstoppable in Ligue [-]. Ibrahimovic and other players in the team have also benefited from the successive victories. The Swedish center can also accept this role change, because his post-up will also become an important part of the team's offense.

Unexpectedly, Real Madrid adopted a four-four-two balanced formation tonight, ready to fight.

From the beginning to the present, there have been several times when Paris Saint-Germain grabbed the ball and passed it to Zlatan Ibrahimovic. Instead of following the Swedish center immediately, the Real Madrid central defender retreated into the 30-meter zone at the fastest speed. The midfielder also retreated immediately without any entanglement.

The intention is very clear, you like to have the ball, so you do it.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic is characterized by fine technique, but his kicking rhythm is slow and sticky to the ball, so every time he catches the ball, he finds that Real Madrid's defense retreats immediately, and the counterattack fails. After a moment of hesitation, even the midfielder retreats.

Paris Saint-Germain then began to gain possession near the halfway line, but were unable to penetrate forward.

If that's all there is to it, that's fine.

With the ball in hand, control and control, the midfielder is overwhelmed, and opportunities will still come out.

But how could Real Madrid make it so easy for their opponents?
Whenever the midfield is in place and the defensive formation is formed, Toni Kroos will push forward immediately, forming pressure on players such as Ibrahimovic, Verratti and Motta, forcing them to pass the ball back or split the side, unable to advance.

Yang Yang and Suarez will also form an oppression in the frontcourt, and the purpose is also very clear, that is, to force the ball to the side.

Once the ball reaches the wing, Real Madrid will immediately invest in defense. David Silva and Di Maria are both very defensive players, which makes it easy for Real Madrid to strangle Paris Saint-Germain's players on the wing.

Once the ball was in hand, Real Madrid immediately passed forward and played a quick counterattack.

It's a good thing if it works, but if it doesn't work, Real Madrid will never love to fight.

……

"Shouldn't be!"

Blanc kept shaking his head, he couldn't understand, Real Madrid this season obviously didn't have this style, why did they suddenly become conservative?The key is to be so thorough.

"What is our possession rate?" Blanco asked the assistant beside him.

"60.00% five."

The French cursed angrily, is this like Real Madrid's style?

This team is the strongest team in European football, with the most offensive firepower in the world. In terms of passing and possession, they may not necessarily lose to Barcelona and Bayern Munich, but they played like this?

If Real Madrid now has 60.00% possession of the ball, Blanco will not be surprised at all, and may even be a little happy, because this is the script he is familiar with.

But now, it's obvious that Zidane and Yang Yang, the two big rookies, don't respect the screenwriter at all and change the script randomly.

What's even more frightening is that the situation is somewhat out of Blanco's control.

Real Madrid is struggling, Paris Saint-Germain has the advantage on the field, and they are playing at home, so they will inevitably want to move forward, but in case there is an omission in the defense...

"Who the hell came up with Real Madrid's defensive tactics?" Blanco cursed angrily.

But soon, he realized it himself.

From Benitez to Ancelotti, the head coach of Real Madrid has always been the top tactical master in Europe, and the defense is not bad at all. The only difference is that in the past, Real Madrid only showed their defensive accomplishments when they played against a few teams such as Barcelona, ​​but now, they even adopt this style of play against Paris Saint-Germain.

"Should I be happy?" Blanco smiled wryly.

But soon, he couldn't help cursing angrily again, so fucking happy!

If he can't win the game, he should cry!

He was happy to be restrained like this by two big rookies?
In case of losing, Zidane and Yang Yang will definitely be accused of being conservative by the critical media after the game, but the key is that they got the three-pointer.

Between the three-pointer and the image, everyone knows how to choose.

Thinking of this, Blanco still felt uneasy.

Real Madrid is too doggy, like a dormant lion, ready to jump out and eat people at any time.

Paris Saint-Germain must be careful.

So, the Frenchman walked to the sidelines and waved to the players again.

"Be careful, cheer up, and return to defense faster after losing the ball!" Blanco shouted excitedly from the sidelines.

……

Just when Blanco finished yelling and just turned around to go back, there was a burst of exclamation in the stadium, which scared the head coach of Paris Saint-Germain and turned around in horror.

I saw Toni Kroos pushing forward again, putting pressure on Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

The Swedish center passed back to Verratti, and Toni Kroos overtook the Italian for the first time.

Divided to the left, trying to find Ravitch.

As soon as the Argentine stopped the ball, Di Maria and Carvajal formed a double team.

The ball is broken!

Real Madrid counterattack quickly!
