Compared with Elland Road Stadium, the configuration and modernization of Hampton Park Stadium is slightly inferior, but its comfortable dressing room makes every player fall in love with it involuntarily.

At the moment, the players of Leeds United are also relaxing. If there is no accident, Real Madrid will send their best 4-4-2 lineup in this game, or 4-1-3-2. Relying on this lineup, Real Madrid has killed the Quartet all the way in the Champions League, and their comprehensive tactics have made them hard to defend.

In contrast, Leeds United, which has a very obvious offensive routine, adopted a 4-2-1-3 formation. Under the arrangement of coach O'Reilly, Viduka, Kenny and Keane served as the strikers together. Combination, and behind them is Alan Smith as the midfielder to provide more support for the three.This is undoubtedly an extremely bold move. You must know that Smith did not have much experience in this position before, but Bowyer's injury forced Leeds United, which has uneven midfielders, to make changes. On balance, O'Reilly boldly placed Smith in this position.

The front midfielder seems to be only responsible for delivering offensive shells for the forwards, organizing the second attack, and organizing the first defensive line in the midfield, but players who are capable of playing the front midfielder are often also the core of the team, and the organizers of passing and cooperating , a veritable midfield commander.

So this will be a major test for Alan Smith. You must know that he will be facing the famous Frenchman Zidane on the field!As the double winner of the European Ballon d'Or and World Player of the Year, Zidane is undoubtedly one of the best players in the world after winning the World Cup. Therefore, it is not only Alan Smith who needs to be able to withstand the pressure he brings What we are facing is also a problem that the entire Leeds United team must pay attention to.

You must know that Zidane's ball-handling ability is superb, the ball is excellent, he can pass and shoot, if you have to say that Zidane is not the most perfect superstar, then it is only because of his too introverted personality. The appeal of leading the team is far less than his skills.But this is not the reason that can limit Real Madrid's powerful midfield in this final.

Although the two defensive midfielders Dacourt and Batty can give Leeds United great support in defense, for Alan Smith himself, if he can carry it through, then the experience of playing against top players will make him in the game. In the days that followed, I benefited immensely.An attacking midfielder needs to have good ball control skills, wide vision and excellent overall situation view, and Alan Smith's continuous transformation from forward to now is exactly what O'Reilly wants to see.

Different from Ferguson's transformation of Alan Smith into Roy Keane's successor in history, O'Reilly already has a mature idea in his heart at this time, that is, to train him and Bowyer into a future The dual core that has benefited Leeds United endlessly, not just a fearsome defensive player.

O'Reilly believes that Alan Smith's creativity will not disappoint him, and this game will be the most important step Alan Smith has taken.

For such an arrangement, the players of Leeds United have no opinion at all. After all, if they still have doubts about the ability of their comrades, then they will not be able to make it this far!

On the defensive line, O'Reilly is still arranged as usual. Ferdinand and Woodgate, the youngest and most talented central defender combination in the Premier League, start together again. At the same time, Mateo, who is also not weak, is always on the bench standby.In a high-intensity game like this, if there are no two players on the bench who can hold the field, O'Reilly really has no idea.

But to be honest, except for Fowler who can't play because he transferred to Leeds United in the middle of the season, the central defender is the only Leeds United who can start and get shots from the bench. Ferdinand, Woodgate and Mateo The configuration is simply something that only wealthy families can have.On the other hand, Gary Kelly and Hart are guarding the two wings together. After a season of observation, the two are considered very safe, although they have not reached the height expected by the outside world.
Finally, in the goalkeeper position, starting goalkeeper Martin has no suspense.

As we all know, a detailed game plan is a very large aspect, including the organization and integration of all the main technical, tactical, physical and psychological aspects that can play a decisive role in the game, and at the same time, it must be able to realize these influencing factors Methods.Usually in football, tactical and mental abilities are the most effective and decisive.

For each team, there is a basic plan for the game, and this time O'Reilly made a targeted breakthrough in the counterattack, using the advantage of speed on both sides to win as much as possible from the set ball to attack.

Although Leeds United are not the first team to adopt such a tactic against Real Madrid, they have something that the previous team did not have, that is, Kenny's strength on the left wing. It is the top priority of Leeds United's offense, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the core.

At this time, while the players are relaxing and preparing, O'Reilly is also constantly admonishing the players the goal of the game in as short and clear language as possible, and putting forward some key factors based on their own advantages and the opponent's disadvantages, so that Players strengthen memory and have a deep impression.

At the same time, O'Reilly also told the players the team's plan B, that is, when the set-piece tactics fail repeatedly, change the formation immediately to prevent the previously formulated tactics from being invalid and let the players enter an endless loop.O'Reilly has short and clear arrangements for each player and each area, and hopes to win the game in regular time. After all, if it is dragged into overtime, the physical strength of the players will definitely drop crazily. When the bench is not at all comparable, this situation is simply hell for Leeds United.

"Smith, you look a little nervous, are you okay!"

Kenny, who has a heavy responsibility in this game, is leisurely leaning on the bench and sorting his socks. Compared with the cold seats at Elland Road Stadium, although he knows the importance of his game, he also knows that he will be a Real Madrid player. Strictly guarding against the target, but before the game was about to start, Kenny was surprisingly calm, without the slightest nervousness.

As for why Kenny didn't know, but he didn't bother to think about it, because it was obviously a good thing.
