♂,

Guardiola's style of play against Atletico Madrid has properly adjusted the layout of the midfield, increasing the thickness of the midfield, which is beneficial to both offense and defense.

But in fact, anyone can think of such an arrangement!

If only increasing the thickness of the midfield can limit Atletico Madrid, then Atletico Madrid will not be the first in the league!

In this game, Wan Sheng didn't plan to win by luck. He just wanted to play against Barcelona and fight with Barcelona for frontcourt efficiency.

At the beginning of the season, Atlético de Madrid played against Barcelona, ​​but it was not a good choice. At that time, Atlético de Madrid was immature and some players were not familiar with tactics, but now it is different. The "B-TF" tactical system designed by Athletic has always focused on the whole and the speed, that is to say, Atletico Madrid's tactics are more offensive.

Simply increasing the thickness of the midfield, it is impossible to limit the offensive of Atletico Madrid, but it is likely to be penetrated by the rapid offensive of Atletico Madrid, and recently exposed the weakness of the weak defense defense. !

Guardiola thought he had a response, but he didn't realize at all that it was completely wrong to face Atletico Madrid in this way!

At the present season, Atletico Madrid has matured.

Wan Sheng doesn't mind letting Guardiola see what Atletico Madrid's offense looks like!

The above is a tactical analysis. In fact, Barcelona did well in the game.

Increasing the thickness of the midfield is just a matter of standing and running. Few teams will do as targeted as Barcelona.

Their constant rushing and oppression around the midfield makes it difficult for Atletico Madrid's offensive to break through the midfielder's defense. During Barcelona's attack, their continuous passing also makes Atletico Madrid often choose to passively withdraw, otherwise It is equivalent to giving Barcelona the opportunity to fight behind him.

Barcelona's full attack and defense are not as thorough as Atletico Madrid, but in fact, their tactics can also be ranked among the full attack and defense.

When defending, the three forwards Pedro, Messi and Villa all retreated to increase the defensive thickness of the midfield, constantly running to force up, forming the first line of defense of Barcelona.

In the midfield, Xavi, Busquets and Iniesta are three backs in defense. When attacking, they will suddenly become forwards. Barcelona's offensive ability and the '3' in the middle of the 433 formation It is inseparable, these three talents are the core driving force supporting Barcelona's overall play.

Alves, Puyol, Pique, and the young Adriano are all excellent defenders. Their main job is defense, but when attacking, the two full-backs will plug in support teammates, and Pique often Looking forward to find opportunities, only Puyol will serve as a pillar for stability and defense.

This is the overall lineup for Barcelona.

In Guardiola ’s layout, the defense of the center is the top priority. Atletico Madrid have Reyes and Aguero on the sidelines. In fact, they are not so prominent. Reyes enters The ball relies more on the forward penalty zone, and Ozil is more inward to create a threat. Their support for the middle is not very strong, so when appropriate, the side can choose to give up.

Midway is the most important!

Atlético Madrid has Aguero on the road, which is a team that must be restricted, and Morris, Raúl Garcia, and Ozil on the sidelines often make threats before the penalty area and watched a lot of Madrid. After the competitive game video, Guardiola knew that Atletico Madrid was the most active in the middle.

So while increasing the thickness of the midfield, Barcelona has also increased the blockade of the center.

In due course, even Messi and Villa can retreat to the front of the penalty zone to participate in the defense. By that time, the formation will be recovered, and the midfield and backcourt will gather together. Barcelona can also form an iron barrel formation.

Of course, that is very rare.

Barcelona usually doesn't play that much, it just pays more attention to the defense of the middle road. Guardiola especially confessed to Xavi, Iniesta and Pedro. They should pay attention to the middle road when defending.

This will limit Atlético de Madrid's offense.

Barcelona ’s defense is always secondary. They do n’t use defense to win. That is a shame for them. Even coach Guardiola thinks so, so Barcelona has more arrangements, but it ’s still On offense.

Barcelona ’s offensive is to advance, and the best is to find a chance to fight behind, and the personal abilities and cooperation of Xavi, Iniesta, Messi and Villa on the field needless to say, they They are the most powerful players.

In the layout for Atletico Madrid, Guardiola's emphasis on the position is on the left side of the middle road, which is the defensive space of teenager Rafael Varane.

A season is about to pass. Every weakness in Atletico Madrid's lineup is clear to everyone.

Needless to say in the frontcourt, Atletico Madrid are doing quite well, but there are problems with Atletico Madrid's defense. They have only one midfielder-Godin, Gore has excellent personal ability and has always been stable, but Atletico Madrid has only one Godin, there is no second, either Uyfalusi or Domingos, can not guarantee a stable play.

After Christmas, Wansheng started using teenager Rafael Varane.

Rafael Varane, who has just turned 18 and has only a professional contract with the A-Hellemmes club, has really not changed his name, but this season, Rafael Varane has also played a little fame because he is still dissatisfied. At the age of 18, he started for Atletico Madrid, and his performance was stable, which means that his future is bright.

So far, Rafael Varane has played 17 times for Atletico Madrid, with eight full games and six bench appearances.

This is Raphael-Varane's full resume.

Although the curriculum vitae content is very vague, in fact, any club knows that Raphael Varane will definitely become an excellent central defender in the future, because he can now stand on the stage of the top league.

Many people are jealous of Atlético Madrid having such a central defender genius, but Guardiola saw an opportunity in Rafael Varane.

Rafael Varane's performance is undoubtedly very good, but that is only compared to the identity of an 18-year-old teenager. Really speaking, Varane can only be regarded as a 'qualified central defender'. That's it. Qualification does not mean excellence. In teams with Barcelona, ​​Atletico Madrid and other levels of ability, Varane's performance and ability are a bit worse.

So Guardiola asked Barcelona to attack Raphael Varane's point.

"He is Atletico's weakness!"

Guardiola told all players.

So the reaction to the game is that Messi, Villa and other players continue to play from the left when attacking, keeping Raphael Varane's defense busy, and Godin's side is a bit idle, often His defensive players simply stayed where they were, as if the opponent ’s task was to attract his attention, but no doubt Barcelona ’s players are excellent on any field, and Godin knows that as long as he runs Mistakes are likely to bring opportunities to the opponent, he can only watch Rafael Varane's defense secretly anxious.

"This group of-bitch-child-raised bastards!"

Godin gritted his teeth!

On weekdays, Godin and Rafael Varane get along very well. He knows that Varane is a very good junior. The future is promising, but it is definitely not the present. If the opponent is just an ordinary La Liga team, Godin will not be in a hurry, but his opponent is Barcelona, ​​Europe and the world's most capable offensive team. There is not even one of them. The pressure that Varane will face can be imagined.

So ... can he survive it?

Godin was secretly worried.

Guardiola sitting on the coach seat was very pleased to see this scene. In the football game, he and Wan Sheng's ideas are similar. Targeted tactics and everything are for victory. He will not be because the other party is The young teenager showed mercy.

This is the case with professional games. If the opponent has weaknesses, it is necessary to play against the weaknesses.

This is the only way to win the game.

Rafael Varane is a promising central defender. Maybe he will belong to Barcelona in the future?

Who knows?

But now he is a member of Atlético de Madrid and is also an opponent for Barcelona to win the King's Cup.

As an opponent, there is no such thing as young and old!

As long as Barcelona has more hopes to win and play against a young player, what's the point?

————

Off the court Wan Sheng also saw Barcelona's targeted play.

I have to say ... very mean.

But Wan Sheng is not as worried as Gore, and no one knows his players better than he does.

Rafael Varane is still very young. In fact, in 10 days, he has just turned 18 years old. This age is a bit too young. There is no need to talk about experience. It must be that other players cannot compare. , Varane ’s room for improvement is still very large, but in fact, Varane ’s best is not his potential and strength, but ... mentality!

To say that a player who has just turned 18 has a good mentality, everyone feels a little surprised, but the fact is that, Varane ’s mental attributes are exceptionally high.

In the entire Atletico Madrid team, the player with the best mental attributes is Morris, followed by Aguero, and then Varane. Because of this, Morris has always been able to play steadily. Aguero It is a 'game player'. Whenever the official game, Aguero can always play well.

Varane ’s spiritual attributes are also very high, at least higher than those of Raúl Garcia, Ozil and others. The spiritual attributes are a comprehensive thing, not just representative of the state of mind, but can have a high overall ability and the state of mind is not too bad.

Although Varane was very young and had very little experience, there had never been any major problems in past games.

Therefore, Wansheng is not worried that Barcelona will play against Varane. If they want to make Varane panicky and make some mistakes in the near future, it is really a wrong calculation. Instead, they are worried that they will use technology to impact. Varane's ability and experience are not enough to take on a major role.

Fortunately, Barcelona didn't seem to think that way, or rather, it didn't mean to strike Valané's point brightly.

They felt that Varane was young and went to 'bully' him, and did not play technical cooperation, so that three consecutive times, Varane completed his defense very well, so Barcelona failed to return on three occasions.

"Keep doing this."

Wan Sheng smiled.

————

Barcelona's offense is unfavorable, but it does not mean that Atletico Madrid's offense is also unfavorable. In fact, Atletico Madrid has begun to threaten.

After a wave of offensive in Barcelona, ​​Atletico Madrid quickly took the ball and started the fast attack.

Godin made a direct pass to Raúl Garcia. The latter traversed and transferred to Özil. Özil dribbled the ball quickly and directly broke through Harvey's interception. Ozil then passed the ball to the middle.

Morris catches the ball and hits the goal!

Goalkeeper Valdés responded fairly quickly. He managed to save the ball and took it off the bottom line.

Atlético Madrid's corner kick failed to threaten. They quickly retreated to the backcourt to defend. It made people feel that Atlético Madrid seemed to have played a wave of counterattacks and went back without a chance.

The game will be the same afterwards.

Whenever the ball is received, Atletico Madrid will launch a very fast offensive, often from the backcourt to the frontcourt, which takes no more than half a minute, and is fast around the penalty area, especially in the frontcourt. , The speed is even faster, often Barcelona players have not yet reacted, Atletico Madrid players have completed the pass and catch.

In this quick cooperation, mistakes are inevitable.

But Atlético Madrid did not slow down. Every time he took the ball, he deliberately increased the passing speed, which made Barcelona a little confused. However, if he wants to defend well, he must keep up with the speed of Atletico Madrid. Their speed has also increased.

Guardiola frowned slightly off the court ~ www.novelmtl.com ~ He felt something was wrong.

On the court, Atlético Madrid seemed to play a defensive counterattack. Every attack was very fast, and there was no intention to control the ball. There was no positive and orderly advancement. However, this counterattack was different from the last game.

The last time the two teams met, Atletico Madrid was the real counterattack.

At the time, Atletico Madrid took the ball directly to the frontcourt, or quickly passed the ball to the frontcourt player, and then relied on the individual ability of the frontcourt to attack.

This is different.

A few times down, Atlético de Madrid ’s quick offensive did not rely on a single player from Aguero. On the contrary, Ozil, Reyes and the middle players had a lot of cooperation. Morris, Raúl Garcia and Argentina The cooperation between Guerrero is also very close, that seems to be ... to speed up the progress! ?

Guardiola was puzzled, he watched the game more carefully. (To be continued.)
