super storm

Chapter 927 I'll pass it on, you run!
With a bang, the door to the locker room of the Bernabéu home team was pushed open forcefully.

Immediately afterwards, Real Madrid players filed in one by one. Everyone was panting and sweating, and went straight to their seats. Once they sat down, they never wanted to stand up again.

Tired, so tired!
Real Madrid dominated possession in the first half, which is the strength of La Liga teams, but Manchester United also showed tenaciousness.

Yang Yang, Xavi Alonso and others all know that Ferguson is different from other coaches. He is a coach who does not easily compromise. Let alone meeting Real Madrid in the semi-finals of the Champions League, it is estimated that even in the final of the Champions League, Manchester United will play very bravely.

Of course, the bravery here does not mean that we must fight against each other completely, but that we are not conservative.

Manchester United is nicknamed the Red Devils. In their genes, these two words are not conservative at all.

Not crazy, not live!

The peak period of Ferguson's team was in [-], and in that year, Manchester United's Triple Crown was won by a series of reversals, and each reversal was extremely classic and extremely dangerous.

The FA Cup final is a reversal, the Champions League semi-final against Juventus is a reversal, and the Champions League final against Bayern Munich is even more of a reversal.

For the Red Devils to achieve such results, the bloodiness that Ferguson injected into this team is crucial.

And this bloodiness is also doomed to Manchester United not being conservative.

Playing against a team like Manchester United is undoubtedly very hard. Even if you control the ball, it is still not easy.

They were attacked at the beginning, but not long afterwards, Real Madrid scored a goal, but Manchester United did not become conservative because of this, but patiently looked for opportunities, and they really waited for them.

A mistake in Real Madrid's defense was directly counterattacked by Manchester United.

Thinking of this, Yang Yang suddenly turned his head, looked at Vermaelen who was sitting beside him, and smiled wryly in his heart.

This guy is unlucky enough.

For Manchester United's goal, he became the background board again, which is completely predictable. He will definitely be criticized by the media and fans after the game, but in fact, everyone in the team knows that this goal has nothing to do with him.

Giggs went straight behind, Vermaelen turned his back to the goal, and Cristiano Ronaldo sprinted forward. With the Portuguese's start and sprint speed, it is almost impossible for Vermaelen to catch up with him.

It would be too much to criticize Vermaelen for this conceded goal.

Of course, he must be responsible.

During an avalanche, no snowflake is innocent.

If a goal is conceded, no one is without responsibility.

Yang Yang stretched out his right hand vigorously, and patted Vermaelen on the shoulder, feeling a little helpless for him.

But that's football.

Heroes and bears are sometimes really unclear.

……

Benitez also pushed open the door of the locker room and walked in with Yesterdan.

His complexion looked the same as usual, which is also his usual characteristic.

Even if the team lost in the first half, he still looked the same when he came in. He was always like a cold machine without any emotion, but he always gave people a confident look.

Benitez is not the kind of coach who can stir up players' emotions, but he is the kind of coach who can always remain calm and rational no matter what the situation is, and find out the opponent's weaknesses and shortcomings.

To play under such a head coach, the players' own mental strength must also be strong enough. Those who are more glassy or emotionally sensitive are often easy to think wildly.

Just like now, after he opened the door and came in, he glanced at the players, without saying a word, directly pulled the tactical board, and began to analyze the reasons for the conceded goal in the first half, and the responsibilities of several players.

This is his style, always going directly to the subject, regardless of whether others can accept it or not.

Then he began to analyze Manchester United's tactical play in the first half, as well as Ferguson's thinking, what might happen in the second half, and more importantly, the opportunities that exist in Real Madrid.

Manchester United's offense in the first half was mainly done from the left. During the offense, Evra advanced more aggressively, and even participated in the offense more actively than Park Ji-sung in front. This inevitably brought about a problem similar to Real Madrid's, that is, behind Evra.

Real Madrid's offense is dominated by Yang Yang on the left, facing Fabio, and Manchester United's defense is obviously more inclined to its own right, that is, freezing Yang Yang's side, but from the perspective of the first half, Manchester United's defensive effect is not very ideal.

Without a full-time defensive midfielder, it is difficult for Manchester United to freeze Real Madrid at the front of the penalty area.

But Ferguson is also very cunning, a bit deliberately directing Real Madrid's offense to the left, causing Real Madrid to somewhat ignore the attack on the right.

Benitez also pointed out that Manchester United's opening attack and pressing pressure have paid a lot of physical energy consumption, which will inevitably lead to physical problems in the second half, which will be Real Madrid's opportunity.

"I asked Paco to count. Among the counterattacks in the first half, most of Park Ji-sung did not retreat to support the defense. Even the time when Maicon picked the ball, Park Ji-sung did not come back. This is definitely not an accidental phenomenon."

Benitez pointed out a very interesting place.

It stands to reason that Park Ji-sung is based on Manchester United's capital. It is definitely not his offensive strength, but his tactical execution and physical fitness. Moreover, the Koreans have always been known for their dedication and fighting spirit, but they rarely returned to defense in the first half. This is definitely unreasonable, unless it comes from Ferguson's instruction.

There are many reasons why Ferguson gave such an instruction, except for Ferguson himself, Real Madrid can't guess at all.

But in this way, there will be a problem. There will be weaknesses on Evra's side. The French left back is notoriously keen on forward assists.

Benitez summed up the team's offensive thinking in the second half, and still insisted on attacking the front of Manchester United's penalty area, with the two flanks as important offensive channels. Yang Yang and Robben created threats on the two wings, and Kaka then inserted the attack.

"This is the first leg of the Champions League semi-final at the Bernabeu. It is extremely dangerous to give Manchester United an away goal. If it is a draw, then our trip to Old Trafford in a week's time will become extremely dangerous."

Benitez still used a very cold tone, speaking what should have been thrilling words.

I have to say that he is really not an expert in mobilizing players' emotions.

According to the usual practice, after the head coach finished speaking, it was the players' turn to speak.

The two captains Casillas and Ramos also stood up to encourage their teammates one after another. Yesterdan also tried his best to stir up the emotions of the players and encourage them to make persistent efforts. Everyone believed that the team could score another goal of Manchester United in the second half.

Yang Yang also stood up at the end. With the permission of Benitez, he came to the front of the tactical board, picked up a pen and drew a circle on the right side of the offensive penalty area, and then put the chess piece with Robben's jersey number in the circle.

"As long as Evra advances and has no time to return to the defense, when counterattacking, cross the center line and find a way to give the ball to me. I will pass this area, Arjan, you come and run!" After Yang Yang finished speaking, he looked deeply at Robben.

Everyone felt Yang Yang's strong self-confidence, even though they all knew that it was difficult.

Manchester United has been trying every means to cut the connection between Real Madrid's left and right flanks. Now Yang Yang wants to pass the ball to Robben, which may not be an easy task.

In the entire Real Madrid team, except for Yang Yang, no one dared to say that he could do it and let his teammates run.

What's interesting is that after Yang Yang finished speaking, no one in the locker room raised any objections, and Robben also reacted immediately, nodded heavily and promised, "I will definitely send it in when you send out the vacancy."

The Dutchman is still sure enough about his shot.

…………

…………

After changing sides and fighting again in the second half, Manchester United still adopted the tactical strategy of the first half, but made appropriate rectifications based on some problems exposed in the first half.

For example, Park Ji-sung is obviously more active in returning to defense, which should also be inspired by Ferguson.

The central defender combination of Ferdinand and Nemanja Vidic is very solid, which can be called a steel line of defense. At the beginning of the second half, they blocked Kaka and Harvey Alonso's long-range shots twice in a row.

Afterwards, Kaka sent a direct pass. After Maicon inserted at high speed along the right, he shot a long shot directly on the right edge of the penalty area, but failed to create a threat and was firmly saved by Van der Sar.

"After the start of the second half, Real Madrid still seemed somewhat anxious."

"Jarvey Alonso is constantly signaling his teammates to control the ball more and don't kick blindly."

"Benitez was also a little excited on the sidelines, and kept calling on the players to stabilize."

"It is true that the current situation is not good for Real Madrid, because the first leg of the Champions League semi-final gave Manchester United an away goal at home. If Real Madrid can't score another goal, it is too dangerous."

"It can even be said that even with a score of two to one, Real Madrid does not have much advantage at Old Trafford."

"Now we can see that both teams are fighting fiercely."

"Real Madrid passed to the penalty area, Ibrahimovic retreated to respond, and then passed back, Yang Yang appeared in the middle, waded through Carrick, and directly kicked the goal..."

"boom……"

"The column on the right has done a great job!"

"Looks like the lady of luck is not on Real Madrid tonight."

"Yang Yang looked very depressed. He raised his hands high and looked helpless. His shot was beautiful and tricky. He shot directly between Vidic and Evra. Van der Sar's line of sight was blocked by Vidic, but it turned out that the post saved Manchester United."

"It's a pity indeed."

"Zlatan Ibrahimovic is comforting Yang Yang. The cooperation between the Swedish center and Yang Yang is very tacit. The kick just now was very comfortable. After Yang Yang received the ball, he passed Carrick and hit the goal directly."

"Manchester United's current defense is still very well-organized, and they haven't given Real Madrid too many kicking opportunities."

"Look at Manchester United's attack, Van der Sar takes the goal kick..."
