Football No. 10: God's Perspective

Chapter 185 Fierce battle against Atletico Madrid

Wang Po nodded, "Well, I know all of this, and I also know that you, the old man, don't enter the field. "Football's swingman" is like thunder."

Killing and punishing the heart, killing and punishing the heart!

Torres jumped his feet angrily when he heard this. If his teammates hadn't dragged him, he might have come up to do it.

But then again, if he really did it, would Wang Po be afraid of him?Muay Thai is not about flamboyant fists and embroidered legs. It is a vegetarian, and it is guaranteed that the Spaniards will come and go.

The game has not yet started, and the two teams are already on fire. This game is destined to be rich in content.

Even though the furious Torres had already entered the arena, he was still spitting trash at Wang Po.

"beep"

The referee whistled the whistle, and the first round of the UEFA Champions League 1/4 knockout round, Dortmund's home game against the visiting Madrid team officially started.

As soon as it came up, Atletico Madrid gave up control of the ball in the midfield, and the three lines shrank in the penalty area, waiting for an opportunity.

This was the first time Dortmund played against Atletico Madrid under Simeone. Even though they controlled the dominance of the ball, the team played very cautiously.

Wang Po, who appeared in the front midfielder, faced Torres and Griezmann's two Atletico Madrid strikers alternately, which was a little uncomfortable.

After all, it is extremely rare for a forward player to retreat so deep as soon as he comes up to help the defense.

As analyzed in the pre-match video, observing the movement and blockade of Madrid's players, they deliberately drove the ball holder to the wing.

Fortunately, Wang Po's ability to read the game is very good. Every time the opponent is about to double-team, he will pass the ball out.

Several defensive intentions have been seen by Wang Po, and Atletico Madrid is not in a hurry. They still block and defend step by step. They believe that with the passage of time, the decline in physical strength and concentration, Dortmund will definitely have loopholes that they will catch.

Standing in the middle of the confrontation with the two central defenders Godin and Savage of the Madrid Economic Team, the two strikers of the Dortmund team, Aubameyang and Ousmane Dembele, did not take advantage.

This is predictable. After all, although Aubameyang was born as a center forward, he is quicker and more spiritual. Not to mention Ousmane Dembele, the material of the winger, diving in and confronting the tall and big central defenders is to use his own shortcomings to attack the enemy's strengths, which is completely different.

Godin and Savage often confront top centers from various teams. In their eyes, Aubameyang and Ousmane Dembele are as weak as chickens. If they confront each other, the role of the fulcrum in the center will be greatly reduced.

Fortunately, in terms of offense, Tuchel still has a plan B. If you can’t get a bargain in the penalty area, let Aubameyang and Ousmane Dembele come to the side that is most adept at playing. This can increase the width of scheduling for Wang Po and help break Atletico Madrid’s chain defense. On the other hand, the space in the center is also given to Wang Po.

It's time for a personal show.

After receiving the pass from the left back, Wang Po non-stop puts the ball on Ousmane Dembele on the right.

Ousmane Dembele, who changed lanes and held the ball, was not in a hurry to try to attack. He was observing, waiting, and when Atletico Madrid's encirclement gathered in his direction, it was the time to pass the ball.

Before passing the ball, Wang Po had already thought of a point of response, that is, the space between the midfielder and the central defender.

When Atletico Madrid's encirclement was about to form, Ousmane Dembele didn't dare to be brave and passed the ball to Wang Po. The latter stood in the middle and acted as a card dealer. The ball was transferred to the feet of Aubameyang on the side without stopping, and he had a 1v1 chance with Atletico Madrid's full-back.

Without the protection of his teammates, Aubameyang boldly chose to pass the ball alone and break through to the penalty area.

Godin quickly filled his position, and the defense of the entire Atletico Madrid team began to move to Aubameyang's side. Unfortunately, no matter how fast people are, they are not as fast as the ball.

Aubameyang found the right time and swept the ball low and flat to the middle. Wang Po suddenly advanced forward, grabbing the area between the two central defenders, and scored with a shovel shot in front of the goal.

Although Oblak made a save, it was too close to prevent the ball from entering the net.

1:0.

At the end of the first half, Wang Po gave Dortmund the lead in the score.

Watching the team lose the ball, Simeone roared wildly on the sidelines, very dissatisfied with the player's performance.

"Torres, keep an eye on your man."

With his eyes wide open, Simeone's posture seemed to swallow Torres alive.

There are only two people in the world who can let a center forward stare at the opponent's core players. One is the "madman" Mourinho. Drogba's full-back back then made everyone dumbfounded. The other is the current head coach of Atletico Madrid, Simeone.

Cup matches have some chance, so no matter how strong the team is, they dare not rely on it, especially in the knockout stage, everything is based on stability.

This time away to Dortmund, for Simeone and his Atletico Madrid team, a draw is acceptable.

Therefore, in this game, Atletico Madrid's offense is not so important. Letting Torres return to mark the man also adds weight to the defense. From this point of view, it is also in line with Simeone's style.

The fans of Atlético de Madrid didn't buy Simeone's arrangement. They were top-notch on paper, so why did they play so cowardly? Just do it!

Atletico Madrid finally recovered after conceding the ball.

The offensive side began to press up.

After all, the overall strength is stronger. Once Atletico Madrid's midfielder exerts strength, Dortmund's midfielder can't occupy it immediately.

Fortunately, the team is currently leading the score, and it is the end of the first half.

However, everyone still underestimated the strength of Atletico Madrid's counterattack.

Saul made a pass in the midfield, Torres quickly started, grabbed the ball in front of Subotic, turned around and made it to Griezmann, who responded at the second point, and the latter shot from the far corner with his left foot and scored.

1:1.

Dortmund's lead was not maintained for 2 minutes before being equalized by the opponent in an instant.

This is the embodiment of hard power.

To make matters worse, Atletico Madrid scored a valuable away goal.

The situation suddenly became unfavorable for Dortmund, and Tuchel on the sidelines shook his head frequently. This is indeed the level of the top four in the Champions League, too strong!
As soon as he exerted his strength, his team couldn't stand it.

"Toot~!"

The ball came out, and the referee blew the whistle to end the first half.

Although Atletico Madrid equalized the score and scored a goal, Simeone was still dissatisfied with the team's performance and yelled at the players loudly, resounding through the entire player channel.
