Ace Young Marshal

Chapter 850 Second Half

A 1-0 victory is not enough to make the Red Army feel confident about advancing to the Champions League final.

Situ Yunbing was still dignified when he was interviewed after the match.

"As you can see, although we won the game, we did not gain a clear advantage. At the same time, Gareth Bell and Lewandowski were injured. I don't know the specifics of the injuries, but it seems It is very likely that we will not be able to play in the second round, which is a very important loss for us.

The clash at the Calderon Stadium in a week's time will be full of suspense. "

Regarding Atletico Madrid's performance, Situ Yunbing said: "In my football philosophy, I will not think that Atletico Madrid's conservatism is wrong, and I will not even criticize them as negative.

In the semi-finals of the Champions League, no team will be negative in terms of mentality. To say that is an insult to a team.

I can't expect Atlético Madrid to open up space to allow Liverpool to score goal after goal with ease, and I can't complain that they haven't.

In the eyes of neutral fans, this is a poor game to watch, but for Atletico Madrid and Liverpool, this is a war!
It's just that this war has not yet reached the final moment. I think there will be a decisive battle at the Calderon Stadium! "

At the level of the semi-finals, it is very common to be conservative. Just like in another semi-final, Manchester City and Real Madrid scored 0:0 at home, with a goalless draw.

No one expects to run out of bullets in the "first half" of a two-round match to decide the winner!

Simeone said after the game that he lost a small goal to Liverpool and said that the result was reasonable and Atletico Madrid could accept it.

Returning to the home court for at least the second round, Atletico Madrid has the advantage of the home court!

At the same time, Simeone will definitely pray that the two generals of Liverpool will miss the second round!

The European media generally did not comment highly on the first leg of the two semi-finals, because there were no goals, and there were not even many exciting scenes.

The game between Real Madrid and Manchester City was even more dull!

Situ Yunbing got a report from the team doctor 4 hours after the game.

Lewandowski and Gareth Bell need to rest for 4 weeks and 6 weeks respectively!
The news is the worst.

Not only does it mean that they will definitely miss the second round of the Champions League semi-finals, but there is also a high probability that they will miss all the remaining games of Liverpool this season!
Once Liverpool reach the Champions League final, they may not be able to play.

Liverpool, which has been relatively stable in terms of personnel throughout the season, suddenly burst into such a big crisis in the final stage of the season!

This makes the Red Army fans very worried!

Although Situ Yunbing has won the English League Cup and four consecutive Premier League titles, this season has been called a success, but who can not dream of epic glory?

The UEFA Champions League final and the FA Cup final are both within easy reach, and one step can reach the sky!
Liverpool was a guest at the weekend to challenge Swansea City. The latter has declared success in relegation in the league, so it can be said that there is no desire.

The outside world is guessing what kind of striker Liverpool will send to the Calderon Stadium.

Vardy is the favorite!
In this league, Situ Yunbing gave Vardy 65 minutes of game time, but his performance was average, and it was also related to Liverpool's overall unwillingness to over-consume, and his tactics were relatively conservative.

In the end, Liverpool played 0:0 with Swansea in the away game. Liverpool rarely scored in the league.

Liverpool concentrated on preparing for the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals, and Situ Yunbing also focused on Atletico Madrid's performance in La Liga after the end of the Premier League.

Atletico Madrid defeated Vallecano 1:0 at the Calderon Stadium, and continued to maintain the momentum of the championship with Barcelona on the same point. Real Madrid also gritted their teeth and beat Real Sociedad 1:0 in the away game, falling behind by 1 point To Barcelona and Atletico Madrid.

La Liga's championship suspense is the best in Europe!

The triwizard struggle for hegemony is very lively!

This may benefit Liverpool, at least Atletico Madrid will definitely not be able to give up the chance to fight for the La Liga championship!

Definitely going all out in the league.

Before the Calderon Stadium, Fleet Street is cheering for Liverpool!
They expect Liverpool to reach the Champions League final for three consecutive years!
And won three consecutive crowns!
So when the reporters from Fleet Street came to interview Situ Yunbing, their questions were very inductive.

"How will you take advantage of the 1:0 score in the second round?"

Situ Yunbing laughed and said, "Of course it's a defensive counterattack. We have the advantage. Even if Atletico Madrid scores first, the score will only be a tie. So we will undoubtedly play a defensive counterattack!"

"Will Vardy start? In such a crucial game, he seems to have never started before."

Situ Yunbing shook his head and said: "Although your statement is correct, it is not appropriate. Vardy has scored goals for Liverpool in many key games. His contribution to the team is unparalleled. From the current point of view, as long as he is in good condition The problem, he will definitely be our center forward, no one is more suitable than him."

After answering some questions from the reporters, Situ Yunbing ended the pre-match press conference happily.

Fleet Street gave him enough respect and support.

After all, at this stage, Liverpool is related to the image, value, honor and so on of the Premier League!

Fleet Street will naturally support Liverpool and Manchester City.

Even recently, "Guardiola failed to lead the team to the Champions League semi-finals, but Pellegrini led the team to the Champions League semi-finals" as a basis to support Pellegrini to stay in office!

But everyone also knows that the campaign on Fleet Street is just to cheer up Manchester City and unite Manchester City from top to bottom.

Once Pellegrini fails to lead his team to the Champions League final, or if he fails to win the championship even if he advances to the final, then Fleet Street will immediately take stock of Pellegrini's crimes and turn around to welcome them with flowers and applause Guardiola went to Manchester City to take up his new post.

In early May, Situ Yunbing led a team to visit Madrid.

On the night they stayed in the hotel, Atlético de Madrid fans tried to make noise outside the hotel to interfere with their rest. Situ Yunbing could only feel a little helpless and ridiculous about this.

Liverpool came to the Calderon Stadium in the evening the next day.

In this expedition, the Spanish media are highly optimistic about Atletico Madrid!
Because Atletico Madrid's record at home is not bad, and Liverpool is missing two generals, their strength will inevitably decline!
The Calderón was buzzing and Atlético Madrid fans will not easily forget what Liverpool did to them two years ago!
So they can be hostile to Liverpool for granted!

Situ Yunbing enjoyed booing in this stadium, but it was nothing special.

He is not surprised.

When he becomes the outstanding young coach in the history of European football, he will not always win the respect of everyone.

Simeone still looked as calm as in the first round, standing seriously in the command area of ​​the home team coach and waiting for the start of the game.

Situ Yunbing stood in the command area of ​​the coach of the visiting team and also waited for the arrival of the battle.

The starting players of the two teams entered the field, and the cheers at the Calderon Stadium could almost burst the eardrums!

"Good evening, viewers and friends, welcome to the UEFA Champions League semi-final second leg, Atletico Madrid at home against the defending champion Liverpool!

A week ago, Liverpool beat Atletico Madrid 1-0 at Anfield with Lewandowski's goal. Today, Atletico Madrid ushered in the second round of the Champions League semi-final against Liverpool at home!

Who of the two teams will be able to break into the Champions League final this season is still full of suspense!

But we believe that this game will be more exciting, intense and beautiful than the first round!

Let's take a look at the starting lineups of the two teams.

Atletico Madrid started 433 at home today.

Goalkeeper: Oblak.

Defenders: Juanfran, Godin, Lucas Hernandez, Felipe Luis.

Midfield: Gabi, Augusto Fernandes, Koke.

Forwards: Saul, Griezmann, Carrasco.

Although Atletico Madrid's starting lineup is somewhat offensive, I believe they will definitely take the initiative to strengthen defense during the game.

Therefore, this three-forward formation may eventually evolve into 442 or 451.
We knew before the game that Gareth Bell and Lewandowski would miss this crucial game, they were plagued by injuries.

Today in the away game Liverpool started 433.
Goalkeeper: Ter Stegen.

Defenders: Azpilicueta, Van Dijk, Koulibaly, Robertson.

Midfield: Kante, Eriksen, Casemiro.

Forwards: Mbappe, Vardy, Sane.

Situ Yunbing put Coutinho on the bench today, and continued to maintain the structure of the team's three forwards, with both wings flying together!

Let us see how this contest will evolve today.

Atletico Madrid want to knock out Liverpool and advance to the Champions League final, then they must score at home, score, score! "

Situ Yunbing did not play Coutinho today, which really made the Brazilian feel a little depressed.

This may once again reflect that he is not omnipotent and irreplaceable in Situ Yunbing's technical and tactical system!
And Situ Yunbing did not raise his status in the team.

This is not Situ Yunbing's prejudice against him, but today's game, he needs the speed of counterattack, Sane and Mbappe can bring better results than Coutinho.

He needs defensive hardness in the midfield, and Eriksen is better than Coutinho.

At least he doesn't need the creativity of positional warfare to control the scene. Coutinho's sitting on the bench is entirely out of the team's technical and tactical needs today.

As for how he would personally view this situation, Situ Yunbing really had no way to control it.

Although Liverpool put up a relatively aggressive lineup in the away game, after the start of the game, the team played a defensive counterattack honestly!

They handed over the initiative to Atletico Madrid to see how Atletico Madrid will break the game!
