Football Giants

"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

In an instant, the entire Glory Stadium changed from the smooth, mirror-like surface of the lake to the turbulent ocean.

It is difficult for people who are not on the scene to imagine the shock. Tens of thousands of fans all made their voices. The momentum was almost like lifting the roof of the stadium.

The enthusiastic Atletico Madrid fans rushed out of their seats in excitement, screaming and cheering for the team.

The scoring hero Isco quickly rushed out of the penalty area and rushed below the stands of Atletico Madrid fans to celebrate the team's opening scoring, while Atletico Madrid players rushed over to celebrate one by one.

Even Courtois, who was standing in front of the goal, rushed to most of the court and ran over to hug Isco.

Goal!

Finally scored!

Atletico Madrid's head coach Diego Simeone clenched his fists to celebrate on the sidelines, yelling with excitement.

His elaborate tactics before the game finally worked, and Atletico Madrid finally broke the Southampton goal!

Everyone knows that in this critical final, whoever scores the first goal has the initiative in the game.

On the Southampton side, Neuer angrily kicked the ball back into the half after losing the ball, while Tony Cross pulled his head straight and looked guilty.

Because he didn't return to where he should appear in time!

Right back Danilo even raised his right hand and apologized to his teammates. He missed Isco!

"This goal basically reflects Southampton's problems. Simeone has a very good vision. Not only did he catch it, but he also organized the opening specifically for this problem..."

This game between Pochettino and Bielsa was temporarily pulled by Yang Huan as a commentator, sitting behind Young Master Huan and others.

From the beginning of the game, he saw the doorway and made his judgment very accurate. It can be seen that this Argentine is indeed in the stomach.

"Is a famous coach a famous coach? I'm not as good as Simeone's ability!"

Hearing Pochettino's sigh, Bielsa smiled slightly, "This is not enough. Simeone has undergone many years of the Champions League baptism. In recent years, he has made considerable progress. Moreover, he has a strong learning ability and is rough on the surface, but But his mind is very clear."

The UEFA Champions League, as the world's highest tactical football competition, is a huge test for every coach.

Playing in the Champions League is not only to achieve better results, but also to be able to get in touch with the most advanced tactical concepts and ideas at any time, to compete with various opponents, and to learn from their strengths.

Once out of the Champions League for a long time, they are often out of touch with advanced tactics. This is why many strong coaches are more inclined to choose teams that can participate in the Champions League.

"Simeone is very familiar with and understands Southampton, so the targeted tactics are very adequate. As soon as it came up, Atletico Madrid contained Southampton's offense, especially the two wings."

Pochettino paused, and then continued: "There was a time when William crossed Cork to the right, and Cork suddenly shot from a long distance. That was a warning, but I didn’t expect that so fast, Atletico Madrid It came for the second time, and it hit directly. Obviously, Simeone focused on rehearsing before the game."

After Bielsa listened, he couldn't help nodding, "Yes, when the three midfielders in Southampton are in possession of the ball, the two full-backs usually press on, which increases the midfield's control advantage. Come a question, and there will be a gap behind you."

"Atletico Madrid's tactics are very targeted and very clear. I press high and press, and as soon as I intercept the ball in the frontcourt, I will hit behind your full back, which is a direct threat!"

After Yang Huan listened, he couldn't help but nodded again and again.

In the world of football, no set of tactics is always undefeated, and there are bound to be loopholes of this kind.

As long as there is a loophole and is caught by the opponent, it is possible to be scored.

But the problem is that Southampton's tactical system is very stable, and the overall strength is very strong. Even if there are loopholes, it can be covered by its own strong strength. Even if the opponent knows it, it may not be able to catch it.

With the strength of Southampton, the opponent dared to press and fight. Before they seized the loopholes of the Saints, the Saints had already defeated them.

But Atletico Madrid is different, this team is very balanced offense and defense.

The players in front of Griezmann, William, Isco, Cork and Krichowiak are basically the kind of players with outstanding running ability, offensive and defensive, and very high tactical execution.

Coupled with Simeone's best tactics of pressing and oppression, the overall strength of Atletico Madrid is quite outstanding.

Put in the Champions League, the strength of the semi-final level.

With a small overall strength gap and Simeone’s starting tactics worked, the short loophole behind the Southampton full-back was directly caught by Atletico Madrid and scored a goal.

"There is a problem!" Prince William frowned.

He now represents the British royal family, and here is the territory of the United Kingdom. Of course he hopes Southampton will win.

"Could it be that the saints can't help it?"

After hearing this question from Prince William, Bielsa and Pochettino looked at each other and smiled slightly.

"Of course not!" Bielsa replied, "Where is the perfect tactic in this world?"

"The reason why Atletico Madrid's starting tactics can be effective is that they have to disrupt the Saints' ball control system and the rhythm of the game, and they will guide the game."

Everyone suddenly realized that Simeone was desperately forced to rob and oppress as soon as the game opened.

"Theoretically, in a football match, if you want to score a goal, you have to create a local advantage. If you want to get a local advantage, you can only achieve it in two ways, the overall tactics, or better than the opponent. Individual ability."

Pochettino took Bielsa's words, combined with the situation on the court to explain the current situation.

"In terms of personal ability, Atletico Madrid, apart from the player Isco, even Kok and Griezman, are compared with players such as Messi, Hazard, Suarez, Pogba and Di Maria. They are all inferior, so if they want to win, they can only rely on the whole."

"But here is the problem. Southampton's overall tactics are also very good. The Saints only need to run their overall tactics smoothly, then the super personal ability of the star will naturally be transformed into a local advantage on the court."

"It was the same in Barcelona, ​​then Bayern Munich, and now Southampton."

"This gives the opponent a very embarrassing choice. On the one hand, you have to beware of the opponent's personally superior players, and you have to undermine the opponent's overall tactics. The problem is that you also have to play integrally."

"This is not something that any team can do. Once any link is not handled well, it is impossible to contain the Saints' offense. Even if you do it, it is difficult for you to create an offense yourself. Threatened."

"This is where Atletico Madrid and Simeone started this match most impressively."

Pochettino's remarks were simple and easy to understand, so many people around him could understand them all at once.

"Is there a way for the Saints to resolve the blockade of Atletico Madrid?" Prince William asked again.

Pochettino nodded and smiled, "Of course!"

"But why doesn't Ancelotti adjust quickly?" The future King of England was a little anxious.

Pochettino smiled again and shook his head: "Don't worry."

Seeing Prince William’s face incomprehensible, the Argentine explained: “It’s only ten minutes now. The football game is ninety minutes. There is still time.”

Speaking of this, Pochettino pointed to the stadium, "Look, Messi and Hazard now often retreat, but they are not fixed on the wing, they often change positions, and are active in the middle area."

"Once they retreat, Atletico Madrid's entire backcourt defensive formation will shrink and it will be tense, because they know very well that if any player of Hazard or Messi gets the ball, they can't stop it, as long as they get the ball. , It's a threat!"

"These two players are now tossing the midfield of Atletico Madrid. They only need to run at a constant speed and see where there are loopholes. Whether there is anyone passing the ball or not, they will run wherever they go. Forcing Atletico Madrid's defensive formation to follow. Move and change."

"No? Humph, as long as they get the ball, they are a threat. No one dares to take this risk!"

Letting Hazard and Messi take the ball in the critical area is indeed quite dangerous, because as soon as they get the ball, not to mention their personal abilities, just say that they hold the ball, Southampton's offense will immediately survive.

Atletico Madrid now seems to be holding down Southampton, but it is like holding down a strong spring. As long as you let go, not only the spring will rebound, maybe you will be injured.

"The 90-minute game is not only a contest of tactics and players, but also a contest of physical energy consumption."

"This is also a paradox. Atletico Madrid has to adopt this kind of high-pressure tactic to suppress the Saints. But the problem is that this kind of high-pressure tactic consumes physical energy. It is impossible to predict when, in which area, the players Sudden mistakes will occur due to excessive consumption."

"Moreover, as the game time goes by and the consumption of players intensifies, Atletico Madrid's high-pressure tactics will definitely relax. At that time, Southampton's tactical operation will gradually become smoother, especially the high-position press-press tactics, and the back line will press up. Once the tactics of Southampton are put into operation, the pressure on Atletico Madrid will increase and may even become overwhelming."

This should be considered Diaosi's fate.

In theory, a football match is like a game.

It's not just a test of people~www.novelmtl.com~, it also tests luck.

At least, there is a bit of luck in every goal, right?

In the process of Pochettino's analysis, Bielsa never spoke, as if thinking about some problems.

After Pochettino finished speaking, Bielsa frowned and shook his head.

"Atletico Madrid's high-position press and pressure in the front field are very well organized, but there is a problem in the backcourt.

"Something's wrong?" Yang Huan was a little surprised.

Simeone is confident about his tactics and lineup. How could there be any problems?

But Bielsa is very determined, "It may not be a problem against other teams, but in the face of a super combination of Hazard, Suarez and Messi, there is a problem. The defensive pressure is too great, plus the Saints Trident. With the agility of the halberds and frequent shifts, Atletico Madrid's defense is a bit out of touch with the midfield."

When Yang Huan heard this, he immediately understood.

is not that right?

Facing superstar combinations such as Hazard, Suarez and Messi, and facing offensive combinations of other teams, these are two completely different situations. There are even many problems that suddenly occurred during the game. I never thought of it before.

Now the midfield is suppressing the opponent, but the back line cannot prevent the Saints' super offensive combination.

Although Atletico Madrid is doing everything possible to prevent the Saints from getting the ball in the front court, how can they not get the ball?

As long as these three players take the ball randomly, it is not a question of whether anyone will mark him.

Rather, how many people are watching him!
