Chapter 878 Mourinho, Who Studies the Art of War (7K Tickets for Votes)
Suarez's goal gave Aston Villa a 1-0 lead.
What Fang Jue is thinking now is, is 1-0 in the first half acceptable? Play it safe and do a good job of defense?
Or make persistent efforts to continue to score goals to expand the score?
In the end, Fang Jue made the decision to be more stable and not to waver.
In this game, the best result Fang Jue imagined is to win Real Madrid at home, and at the same time try not to let Real Madrid score away goals.
Let's put it this way, two to one and one to zero, Fang Jue naturally chose one to zero.
This is a two-round match, and the home team can win without conceding a goal. The second round is a guest at the Bernabeu, and it will be Real Madrid who will be uncomfortable.
Fang Jue walked to the sidelines and called Captain Clement's name loudly. After the opponent looked over, Fang Jue made a gesture.
Clemente nodded, indicating that he had received it.
Following Fang Jue's order, Aston Villa's offensive on the field slowed down and began to focus on strengthening the defense.
Even Suarez's position was appropriately withdrawn, leaving only a fast and powerful Abanglaho in front to fight back.
...
Seeing this adjustment of Aston Villa, Mourinho scolded in contempt: coward.
He himself started with defensive counterattack tactics. Naturally, he knows that Fang Jue's choice is the most suitable, but it is also the most uncomfortable for Real Madrid.
Now, Fang Jue has made a move, and the choice is handed back to Mourinho.
Is it forced to accept a zero-to-one score, and Real Madrid also focuses on safety, and puts the hope of a comeback on the Bernabeu home in the next round, or strives to score a goal, tie the score, and score an away goal at the same time?
"Does Fang Jue think that I can accept a small loss?" Mourinho asked his assistant Karaka.
"I guess he should think so." Caraka thought for a while and said, "He has been promoting our national derby against Barcelona at the weekend, knowing that we have to reserve strength for this game."
"Do you like to read?" Mourinho asked Caraka.
Karaka was taken aback, not understanding why Mourinho asked this.
Mourinho didn't wait for Caraka to answer either. He walked back to the sidelines and shouted Alonso's name. When the Spanish midfielder looked over, Mourinho made a gesture, which means: press out attack!
Mourinho is a very learning person and loves to think about things.
In order to prepare for the match against Aston Villa, he studied Aston Villa's tactics and Fang Jue.
For this reason, he even bought some books related to Chinese culture to study.
His friend and also his agent Mendes recommended some books to him, among which Mourinho is most interested in "Thirty-Six Strategies".
The more I look at it, the more I am amazed. I didn't expect the Chinese to have such a profound strategy in such a long time.
Mourinho feels that some of these strategies can be used on the football field.
What he chooses now is; playing hard to get.
He knew that Aston Villa wanted to defend against Real Madrid's counterattack.
In this case, Mourinho asked the team to press out, the purpose is to attract Aston Villa to press out and fight back, and Real Madrid can take the opportunity to fight Aston Villa's counterattack.
Of course, there is one thing to pay attention to, that is, when Real Madrid presses out, the defense must be stable and no more goals can be lost.
If Aston Villa took the opportunity to sneak attack and get another one, it would be a waste of money.
...
Ronaldo dribbled the ball and accelerated to change direction and passed Kyle Walker. In desperation, the latter could only reach out and pull Ronaldo's jersey.
The Belgian referee Blüch whistled Kyle Walker for a foul, but he didn't play a card, he just verbally warned Kyle Walker.
This caused Mourinho's strong dissatisfaction. The Portuguese opened his arms excitedly, shouted and protested on the sidelines.
Fang Jue was applauding, praising the referee's 'clear insight'.
This made Mourinho so angry, this is an open field in the past, and such a tactical foul is not given a yellow card?
In the second round match between Aston Villa and Barcelona, Aston Villa was obviously favored by the referee Eriksen from Sweden. Mourinho watched the game in front of the TV and saw A Barcelona that took advantage of it suffered from the referee's loss, and Mourinho was very happy.
Of course, Aston Villa was a guest at Camp Nou in the first round, and they also suffered a lot from the referee, and Mourinho also enjoyed it.
However, at this moment, Mourinho can't wait to point at Fang Jue and Aston Villa's noses and curse: Platini's godson!
Real Madrid's free kick.
Er Dayan took a free kick into the penalty area, and Ronaldo headed the goal, which was quite threatening, and the football was only slightly higher than the crossbar.
Fang Jue frowned, and Real Madrid's momentum rose.
This made Fang Jue start to reflect. Is his strategy of arranging the team to defend and counterattack a little too conservative?
Mourinho applauded from the sidelines, cheering for the team's good performance.
...
"Beautiful! Beautiful shots and wonderful saves."
Aston Villa, who was a little passive in the scene, played a counterattack. After Mane cut in from the wing, he was about to go down, but suddenly he shot.
The football was blocked by Ramos with his body.
Suarez swept the ball to Bale before Pepe.
The Welsh star bent his bow and set his arrow, and the football flew straight to the lower left corner of the goal like a fired shell.
That is to say, Casillas was highly focused and reacted very quickly. He subconsciously stretched his legs and blocked the football, otherwise the ball would very likely get into the bottom corner of the goal.
After the football was blocked by Casillas, Abanglaho tried to make a supplementary shot, and Coentrao swept the football out first.
"Counterattack, Real Madrid's chance to counterattack."
"Aston Villa is retreating quickly, and the midfielders are resisting steadily, deploying defenses layer by layer." Zhang Lu said.
Khedira was dribbling the ball, and in the face of Modric's pressing, he chose to pass the ball to Alonso.
As soon as Alonso took the ball, he was pressed by Clement.
It seems that Alonso has no choice but to dribble the ball back by Clemente. This will be another successful defense by Clemente.
At this moment, Alonso, who was dribbling the ball back, suddenly twisted his waist, turned around halfway, and sent the football out.
...
"Beautiful! Under Clemente's marking, Alonso successfully launched an attack."
Alonso's pass was very sudden and very difficult. Rao Clemente, already known as the top defensive midfielder in football, did not expect Alonso to make such a move.
Er Dayan took the ball in the frontcourt, and he sent the football out.
Benzema stopped the ball, turned around, got rid of it, passed Kyle Walker, and then dribbled the ball directly into the penalty area.
This time, Strowman completed a successful defense, and he stuck tightly to Benzema's advancing route.
At this time, Kyle Walker, who had just been passed by Benzema, also came back. Under the double-teaming of two people, Benzema could only choose to continue dribbling the ball to the bottom line.
The more space there is, the smaller the space. In the end, the football was blocked by Strowman from the bottom line.
Real Madrid wins a corner.
"Although there was no shot, Real Madrid's attack was successful." Howe commented.
"Kyle Walker was attacked by Cristiano Ronaldo and Benzema in turn here, and he couldn't stand it anymore." Zhang Lu said.
Fang Jue stood up from his seat. Of course he could see that Mourinho was focusing Real Madrid's offense on Kyle Walker's side.
Compared with Milner on the other side, Kyle Walker seems to be better at forming a gap here.
However, Fang Jue was not dissatisfied with Kyle Walker. Take the defense just now as an example. Although Kyle Walker was passed by Benzema in the first pass, he quickly chased back and fought against Benzema with Strowman. A siege was formed, and in the end, Benzema did not let Benzema form a shot or pass.
As a full-back, Kyle Walker's biggest feature is his speed. You can pass him, but it is difficult to get rid of him completely. As long as there are teammates behind him who can restrain him, Kyle Walker can make up for it.
In addition, in addition to speed, Kyle Walker also has a certain hardness in defense. It is not so easy to break through and get rid of him completely.
Of course, compared to defense, Kyle Walker still has a lot of room for improvement on the offensive end: Whether it is headers, passing, or shooting, Kyle Walker's abilities are relatively average.
However, he can run.
When the assist went up, he ran with a whistling wind, and looked quite imposing.
Closer to home, what makes Fang Jue satisfied is the joint defense cooperation between Stroman and Kyle Walker.
Compared with the discomfort and easy loss of position in the opening stage, Strowman played well during this period and looked like a real central defender defending.
...
Thirty-five minutes into the first half, Aston Villa led Real Madrid 1-0.
The game was very intense, but the feet of the players on both sides were fairly clean, and the referee hadn't played a card yet.
At this moment, Mane, who broke through with the ball in the frontcourt, encountered a serious foul by Real Madrid defender Ramos.
Mane screamed and fell to the ground, looking in pain, while Ramos spread his hands and looked innocent, indicating that he had done nothing.
"This is a foul! It's definitely a foul! A very bad foul!" commentator John Mortensen exclaimed from the commentary booth, "Ramos is like a high-speed forklift, directly shoveling Mane over On the ground... This foul is very fierce, Mane is lying on the ground, it seems that the situation is not good, he may be injured..."
"Cao Nima!" Fang Jue, who was on the sidelines, immediately jumped up from his seat and rushed to the sidelines, staring at the inside of the court, watching Mane's situation nervously.
As for the accusation of this bad foul, it was handed over to assistant coach Ceballos.
Now the Aston Villa coaching staff has had communication and division of labor within the coaching staff. Fang Jue tried to do as little as possible to protest and get angry with the referee, and handed it over to the assistant coaches. Being sent to the stands, Fang Jue is too important to Aston Villa.
Suarez was the closest, and he rushed directly to Ramos, looking for this person to settle accounts.
Then Pepe rushed over diagonally, directly separating Suarez and Ramos.
Ramos didn't need Pepe's protection. He pointed at Suarez and cursed, probably meaning: What's the matter? Want to bite me? !
