Chapter 1051 The Fifth Crown

On the evening of August 31st, the Stade Louis II in Monaco.

UEFA Super Cup, Real Madrid vs. Atletico Madrid.

Since they have not lost to Atletico Madrid for many years, Real Madrid has a more relaxed mentality in this game.

Ancelotti still has a four-three-three formation, with Valdes as the goalkeeper, Arbeloa, Pepe, Ramos and Carvajal in the defense, David Silva, Mascherano and Modric in the midfield, and Hazard, Yang Yang and Robben in the frontcourt.

There are two obvious changes in Real Madrid in this game. One is that the teenager Carvajal won the start for the first time, and it was still in a game like the UEFA Super Cup. This is obviously also a consideration of Ancelotti, because Real Madrid has always played double games in one week in the past two weeks, and the pressure of the game is very high.

The other is that Modric started instead of Xavi Alonso, which is also a positive sign for the team to strengthen midfield possession.

When Real Madrid plays Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid has control over the ball. The key lies in how to convert possession into goals. Modric's first start means that Real Madrid will play more aggressively.

Of course, to a certain extent, this also means that there may be unstable factors in the defense, especially the teenager Carvajal starting instead of Azpilicueta.

With Marcelo on the left, Real Madrid's wing attack needs the right, and Carvajal has a stronger offensive ability, which is the main reason why Ancelotti uses him.

...

After the game started, Real Madrid successfully controlled the situation on the field as everyone expected.

Simeone's Atlético Madrid are not good at holding the ball at all, and they don't know how to control the ball. On the contrary, this team is playing more and more rough and committing more and more fouls, which makes Real Madrid suffer a lot in the game.

If it is said that Simeone was fighting the fire in the middle of last season, then this season is his first full season officially coaching Atletico Madrid. After the summer training, this team is obviously more consistent with his technical and tactical intentions and ideas.

Atletico Madrid's tactics are very simple and practical, that is, to play fast counterattacks without any sloppy, counterattack when they catch the opportunity, and never hesitate to kick. On the contrary, Real Madrid, under Atletico Madrid's frequent fouls, although the possession rate is very high, it is difficult for the ball to pass the midfield smoothly.

In the past, Marcelo on the wing would play such a role, but tonight Arbeloa is mainly defending. Therefore, Ancelotti frequently signaled Carvajal to actively move forward from the sidelines, participate in the front offense, and play wide.

But the young Madrid player looked like he was a bit restrained and hadn't fully adapted to the rhythm of the game.

This caused Real Madrid's frontcourt offense to be delayed and Yang Yang had to frequently expand his range of activities. However, Atletico Madrid's defense did a good job of cutting Real Madrid players from each other, and it was difficult to connect them.

In the 31st minute, the Real Madrid midfielder passed the ball. Diego Costa retreated to defend and pushed Modric down.

This is a very bad start!

…………

…………

"Hey Daniel, go on, go on, be brave!"

Ancelotti shouted excitedly from the sidelines.

Atletico Madrid's defense is indeed very good, the press is very good, but the main reason is that after Marcelo's rotation, Real Madrid's offense is difficult to play wide, and it is too concentrated in the middle, which makes it easier for Atletico Madrid to defend.

Twenty-year-old Carvajal heard Ancelotti's shout, turned his head, raised his right hand towards the coach on the sidelines, indicating that he heard it, and then turned to look at the center circle.

Yang Yang is preparing to kick off with Robben in the middle circle.

On the scoreboard, the original zero-to-zero score has become zero-to-one, and Atletico Madrid is ahead.

Real Madrid has not lost to Atletico Madrid for many, many years, is it going to lose tonight?

Carvajal was born in Leganes, which is a satellite city in the south of the Madrid region. It is somewhat similar to Getafe. He joined the Real Madrid youth training echelon at the age of ten, and he was promoted all the way. In 2010, he entered Castilla.

It can be said that he is a standard direct descendant of Real Madrid's youth training.

As a direct descendant of the team's youth training, his affection and loyalty to Real Madrid is beyond doubt. He has always been eager to wear this Real Madrid jersey and play for Real Madrid, but in the past, it was difficult for him to get such an opportunity.

Brazilian right back Maicon is like an insurmountable mountain, blocking all the right backs in the youth academy.

This summer, Carvajal's agent persuaded him to leave the team because many teams were interested in him, some from La Liga and some from the Bundesliga. Among them, Leverkusen was the most sincere and even promised to give him the main position.

But Ancelotti and Zidane persuaded him to stay because the team sold Maicon.

Arbeloa is known for his defense, and the newly introduced Azpilicueta is also not good at offense. Both Ancelotti and Zidane clearly told Carvajal that he will definitely get opportunities in the new season, provided that he must be able to grasp these opportunities.

He still clearly remembered that on the first day of the pre-season training camp, Yang Yang said a word to Raul in front of him.

"You are all leaders in the youth training camp. You have been saying that Real Madrid's first team didn't give you a chance. Now, the team sent away four stars in one go. This is your best chance. If you can't grasp it, then it's no longer Real Madrid's problem, but you have to find the reason yourself."

Carvajal worked very hard during the pre-season training camp, but Arbeloa also performed very well in the European Cup. In addition, Azpilicueta is a new aid and needs to be inspected, so he did not get a chance in the first few games of the season.

But tonight, facing Atletico Madrid, the team gave him a chance to start.

This is something he has been dreaming of for ten years, but why does he seem to not know how to play?

"Hey, everyone, don't be nervous, we play as we usually do, believe in us, believe in ourselves!"

Yang Yang's shouts came from the front, and Ramos and Casillas were also cheering for the team non-stop.

Only one goal behind, Real Madrid still have a chance.

After hearing Yang Yang's call, Carvajal took deep breaths one after another, trying to calm himself down.

Yes, you can play as you usually do.

What Marcelo does on the left, I do on the right.

...

In the 36th minute, only five minutes had passed since Atletico Madrid scored.

Real Madrid controlled the ball outside the 30-meter zone of Atletico Madrid. As soon as Modric got the ball, he saw a white figure on the right rushing in and calling him for the ball.

Modric passed it without thinking, and he was worried that he couldn't find the way to get the ball.

After receiving the ball, Carvajal continued to rush forward and rushed directly to Atletico Madrid's 30-meter zone.

Robben moved very flexibly, and quickly pulled to the side, sticking to the right line to respond, allowing Carvajal to avoid Adrian's entanglement, and quickly knocked back behind Adrian, forming a two-to-one hit-the-wall coordination on the side.

Carvajal knowingly cuts inside, catches the ball before everyone else, and strides forward.

At the front of the penalty area, Yang Yang suddenly retreated, and quickly came to the right. After receiving a cross from Carvajal, he did not turn around, and directly knocked his heel behind him, and the ball rolled directly to the penalty area.

Carvajal didn't have time to be surprised at all. He instinctively rushed into the penalty area very quickly. After grabbing the ball, he took advantage of the situation and waded past Courtois who was attacking. Then he shot low with his right foot and sent the ball into the empty goal.

One to one!

Real Madrid equalized!

Carvajal was stunned.

Until Yang Yang rushed over, grabbed his neck tightly, and shouted at him loudly: "Your kid finally got the hang of it, you should kick like this, you should kick like this, understand?"

Carvajal might not even understand what Yang Yang was shouting. He only heard the roar of the scene, as if many fans were shouting his name, but how did they know him?

Soon, teammates all around came running to celebrate Carvajal's goal.

"Calm down, boy, the game has just begun." Yang Yang patted Carvajal's face gently.

The Real Madrid right back then grinned and nodded.

...

Sometimes football is just like that.

I feel the kicking, and I feel smooth no matter how I kick it.

When the wing is active, Real Madrid's entire offense is also active.

In the forty-fifth minute, Atletico Madrid got a free kick in the frontcourt. Arbeloa fouled, but the Sheets did not send it directly into the penalty area, but played tactical cooperation.

Carvajal was very courageous this time. He rushed out of the penalty area before everyone else, blocked the ball with his body when Gabi passed the ball, rebounded to the front, and accelerated to catch up. He received the ball before Mario Suarez and continued to move forward with his own speed.

The sudden change caught Atlético Madrid by surprise. Carvajal and Yang Yang quickly formed a two-on-two frontcourt. Real Madrid's right back made a cross near the penalty area. Yang Yang calmly pushed and hit, scoring a reverse goal for Real Madrid.

In the second half, they changed sides and fought again. Real Madrid continued to control the situation on the field and frequently planned attacks.

In the fifty-seventh minute, David Silva sent a direct pass to the frontcourt. After Hazard got the ball, he accelerated the cut and crossed it to Yang Yang. When Yang Yang stopped the ball, he passed Godin, hit a curve ball with his left foot, and hit the lower left corner of Atletico Madrid's goal, 3 to 1!

In the 68th minute, after Modric got the ball at the front of the penalty area, he suddenly split the ball to the right. Carvajal stepped in and made a pass from the right side of the penalty area to the goal. Robben made a low shot and was blocked by goalkeeper Courtois.

Yang Yang quickly judged where the ball landed, and took the first step to head the ball into the goal of Atletico Madrid, which was almost empty, expanding the score to 4 to 1!

The momentum is overwhelming!

After Carvajal was revitalized on the right, Real Madrid's offensive began to become more vigorous, and Atletico Madrid had to retreat again and again, without the vigor of the first half.

In the end, Real Madrid also relied on Yang Yang's hat-trick and Carvajal's goal to win Atletico Madrid 4-1.

This is Real Madrid's fifth championship trophy in 2012!
