Chapter 1495 Boxer's Team
On the morning of May 26, all major media in the world were paying attention to the Champions League final.

Known as the mouthpiece of Real Madrid, the front page cover of Aspen newspaper published a column written by editor-in-chief Alfredo, with Yang Yang as the cover character and title, full of expectations for the Champions League final.

Alfredo said that he agrees with what Klopp said in the pre-match press conference. The importance of Yang Yang to Real Madrid has been seriously underestimated. "Only when we lose him, will we find out that he is so important to us!"

But Alfredo also said that losing Yang Yang is a matter of time, and the choice of Real Madrid management is also understandable, because the future Real Madrid must belong to Hazard and the era of Mbappe, and Yang Yang will become a thing of the past sooner or later.

The editor-in-chief of AS Daily also revealed that the reason why Yang Yang played in a very good state in the second half is that he hopes to leave his most precious legacy for Real Madrid, which is the five consecutive Champions League titles, which will become a historic moment.

"Maybe tonight will be the last time he wears a Real Madrid jersey!"

This is also the first time AS reported that Yang Yang might leave Real Madrid.

……

Marca also wrote an article to introduce Yang Yang.

In the article, Marca believes that Yang Yang has successively changed his playing style and position in the past few years, which allowed him to retain the attack power of his peak period to the greatest extent.

"Although he is 31 years old, he is still full of efficiency and is still the most dangerous attacker on the planet!"

……

The British media are also focusing on the Champions League final.

The Liverpool Echo also wrote an article to introduce Yang Yang, saying that the former Liverpool legend will be Liverpool's number one enemy in the Champions League final tonight. Whether Yang Yang can be frozen will be the key to Liverpool's victory.

The famous Carragher revealed in an interview that the most important thing to defend Yang Yang is to reduce his chances of getting the ball, but this is very difficult.

"His running range is very wide, which makes it difficult for defensive players to completely freeze him, and he is very comprehensive, proficient in both feet, and he can create threats in any position in the frontcourt."

Carragher revealed that if he was asked to choose an opponent he was least willing to meet, it would definitely be Yang Yang.

"How to freeze Yang Yang will become the biggest challenge for Van Dijk and Lovren in the Champions League final."

Former captain Gerrard also said that as long as Liverpool can defend Yang Yang, half of the championship will be won.

"He is the most terrifying opponent in the world. Any team will feel a headache when they meet him. This is football."

"I hope that Liverpool's defensive players can pay 12 points of attention in the game, especially not even the slightest slack on Yang Yang, no matter where he is on the court."

"I know him very well, I have been with him for three years, we are very good friends, so I know how scary he is."

……

German Bild reported that if Yang Yang can lead Real Madrid to win the Champions League final tonight and achieve five consecutive championships, then he will become the greatest player in history, and he will undoubtedly be No.1.

Bild believes that five consecutive Champions League titles are not without, but Real Madrid in Di Stefano's era was obviously not as good as it is now, whether it is the intensity of the game, the intensity of competition, or the level of skills and tactics.

More importantly, under the leadership of Yang Yang, Real Madrid has won four Grand Slams in the past five seasons, and has won the La Liga and Copa del Rey championships this season. It is only the last game away from the Triple Crown.

"They are only one step away from becoming the greatest team in history!"

L'Equipe also stated that five consecutive championships is undoubtedly the most difficult and challenging task in the history of world football.

"The Champions League in the 50s only needed to play seven games to win the championship. At that time, the Champions League was just created, and Real Madrid was the only one. But now, if a team wants to win the Champions League, it needs to play at least [-] games. This is very cruel."

"What's more, in the modern world, professional footballers are attracted to sensuality, it's very difficult to keep their attention, and after Real Madrid won back-to-back titles, every team wants to beat them, which puts a lot of pressure on them."

"It's not so much that Real Madrid's opponent is Liverpool tonight, it's better to say that it's Real Madrid itself!"

…………

…………

When the media around the world are scrambling to report and predict this Champions League final, Yang Yang, the coaching staff of Real Madrid, and all the players of the first team met in the conference room of the hotel, focusing on tonight's Champions League final.

Zidane focused on the team's current pressure, but he believes that if you want to achieve a great cause, you must be able to overcome your own pressure and the disturbances caused by the outside world. He firmly believes that as long as the team follows its original rhythm and plays normally, it will not be a big problem to win Liverpool.

Yang Yang still plays the role of tactical analyst, which is also the most played image in his team. On the contrary, analyst David Bertoni often loses his position, but everyone has to be convinced, because Yang Yang will present the opponent's strengths and weaknesses in almost every pre-match preparation, so that they can be prepared.

For Liverpool, Real Madrid's pre-match preparations have been well done.

For example, Klopp's opening attack is the norm for Liverpool.

The German boxer's team is very similar to when he coached the Hornets. They launched waves of offense after the opening, threatened the opponent again and again, and pressed and impacted the opponent through that kind of wide-ranging pressing and running. However, there are very obvious differences between the two teams.

"Let's not care about what the outside world says. I hope everyone must keep in mind that Liverpool is not a weak team. In a decisive final, this team has the strength to compete with any team in European football, and it will not even fall behind."

Yang Yang reminded all Real Madrid players very seriously, because he was very worried that Real Madrid players would underestimate the enemy.

It is very similar to the Hornets coached by Klopp before. Against Liverpool, the opening is very important. They cannot be allowed to run with the rhythm, and at the same time they cannot be confused under their pressing pressure, otherwise it will be self-destruction.

"Coutinho's transfer to Barcelona has dealt a big blow to Liverpool. The team's front trident Mane, Firmino and Salah are all very good, and their tactical execution is very high. When they are full of energy in the first half, they will repeatedly attack the opponent's defense line, and at the same time adopt crazy presses."

"We can see that so far, Liverpool's front three goals have been very impressive and average. If we look back, we only look at the group stage. Coutinho scored five goals, which is also very good, relying on their explosive power and impact in the frontcourt."

"The three of them are not very skilled, but their bodies and explosive power give them a terrible impact. Once they pick up the ball and attack, it is difficult for any defense line to effectively block it. This kind of impact is almost unreasonable. At the same time, it can often create confusion in the defense zone."

Speaking of this, Yang Yang took out a video of Liverpool playing Manchester City in the Champions League knockout match as an example, mainly the forward pressure of the full-back.

Yang Yang believes that the two full-backs Arnold and Robertson are the key to Liverpool's achievements this season, and they often press forward.

"Take this video as an example. Salah retreats to get the ball. At this time, does Manchester City's left back follow?"

Marcelo is the left back, he thought for a while, nodded and said: "I still have to follow, I have the confidence to follow him."

The state of the Brazilian left-back in the second half was red and purple, very good.

"No, Salah won't be easily entangled by you. After he pulls you out, what about the left central defender? Should he also follow? At this time, Firmino can slant into this area. Mane's speed on the left is also very fast, his body is very good, and he has great impact. Coupled with Wijnaldum's back thrust, the entire offensive threat is played out."

When Yang Yang said this, Marcelo hesitated a little.

This is a deduction, but in fact, in the game, all this will happen in the blink of an eye, but they can imagine the threat after many battles, because the speed and impact of these Liverpool players are indeed very fast.

"This is his retreat. If he gets the ball and leans towards the middle, Arnold can also create a threat by plugging in from the back."

"In addition to Salah, there is also Firmino. He is also very good at retreating, pulling out the defensive gap, and then using Salah and Mane to attract defensive attention, allowing the full-backs on both sides to quickly jump in and create offensive threats."

When everyone saw this, they clearly realized why Yang Yang paid so much attention to it.

If there is no adequate preparation before the game, Real Madrid may be very passive and may even capsize in the gutter if they are hit by Liverpool this round.

"Because of this, our midfield must be extremely focused, especially the protection of the back line, which will be the key to our success in this game." Yang Yang said the key point.

Liverpool's offense is a bit like the Red Devils Manchester United back then. At that time, the front trident composed of Cristiano Ronaldo, Carlos Tevez and Rooney was also the same routine, and it eventually allowed Manchester United to win the Champions League.

As the saying goes, everything changes, no matter how football tactics change, many things will not be divorced from the essence.

Klopp combined his own tactical style with the characteristics of the Premier League and Liverpool to create this Liverpool team.

It seems that the cards are not big, and there are not even top stars, but in fact, this team is full of competitiveness.

What's more, this Red Army is like a boxer. As soon as you enter the stadium, it doesn't matter who you are, no matter what you are, just throw your fists and do it!
This is a very Klopp-style team!

If Real Madrid is head-to-head, they will definitely suffer physically, and their impact will not be good. This is what the Premier League teams are best at.

Therefore, the best choice is to arrange tactics in a targeted manner to contain Liverpool's offense, and then target Liverpool's weaknesses and play Real Madrid's characteristics.
