Chapter 1442
Real Madrid beat Atletico Madrid 3-0 at home and Juventus beat Monaco 2-0 away.
After the first leg of the Champions League semi-final, the situation has become very clear.
Everyone can basically determine that the two teams that will eventually enter the final will be Real Madrid and Juventus.
The number one favorite to win the title will be Real Madrid.
This is not only because of Real Madrid's overall strength that tops European football and their impressive record in the Champions League in the past, but also because of Yang Yang's outstanding state recently, and his 1% performance in the Champions League final. The winning rate is 100, so among the odds offered by the bookmaker, Real Madrid completely overwhelmed Juventus.
But whether it was Yang Yang or Zidane, when interviewed by the media after the game, they never mentioned the Champions League final, but focused on the second round of the semi-final, because they both knew very well that it was not easy to challenge Atletico Madrid away. If you are not careful, you may be turned on your back.
Therefore, three days after playing Atletico Madrid, in the thirty-sixth round of La Liga, Real Madrid once again replaced all eleven starting players, played away with all substitutes and rotations, and challenged Granada.
Although it was an away game and played with all substitutes, Real Madrid still showed their best form. Vazquez assisted Morata to score a goal in just three minutes of the opening, and then De Bruyne made another victory.
Morata scored two consecutive goals in the 30th and 35th minutes and staged a hat-trick.
In the end, Real Madrid defeated Granada 4-0 in the away game, successfully defeated their opponents, and scored another three points.
Atletico Madrid did not have the thickness of Real Madrid's bench, but they also carried out a proper rotation. In the end, with Saul's goal, they beat Eibar 1-0.
…………
…………
On the evening of May 10th, at the Calderon Stadium in Madrid.
In the second leg of the Champions League semi-final, Real Madrid challenged Atletico Madrid away.
The away game was zero to three in the first round, leaving Simeone and his Atletico Madrid with no choice. If they want to make a comeback, they must score goals at home as soon as possible, so they actively launched an attack at the beginning.
Real Madrid also knew the opponent's intentions, so they tried to patiently control the rhythm of the game and the possession of the ball after the opening.
In the first ten minutes, Real Madrid patiently controlled the situation and stabilized the defense. Atletico Madrid actively launched an offensive. Neither team could create a good chance, but in the twelfth minute, Atletico Madrid got a corner kick.
Cork took a corner kick, Saul headed forward and scored, Navas missed the save, 1-0!
For a time, the entire Calderon Stadium was boiling!
And this goal also made Atletico Madrid madly attack Real Madrid like a shark smelling blood.
Only four minutes later, Carrasco took the ball and passed forward. Torres got the ball and broke into the right side of the penalty area. Using his rich experience in the game, Varane, who was defending him, made a blind foul and was finally tripped in the penalty area. .
The referee awarded a penalty kick without hesitation, and Griezmann made a penalty kick, 2-0!
Conceding two goals in a row, this is the result that no one expected. The total score was quickly drawn from the original 3-0 lead to 3-2. This is undoubtedly like a nightmare for Real Madrid, even if each of them He has rich experience, but he was still overwhelmed by the momentum shown by Atletico Madrid after the opening game.
This iron-blooded army is really desperate!
If they didn't feel Paris Saint-Germain's feelings when they had a four-to-zero advantage at the Camp Nou before, but were beaten by Barcelona, then now, they really feel it.
They are starting to panic!
Yang Yang was the one who felt this kind of emotion most deeply, because he also had this kind of strangeness in his heart, but he quickly suppressed it, but he couldn't guarantee it for other people.
And what he can conclude is that Atletico Madrid will definitely have stronger morale and will launch further attacks.
From zero to three to two to three, there is only one step away from equalizing the score. At this time, Atletico Madrid is the most terrifying.
Thinking of this, Yang Yang clapped his hands vigorously, signaling the surrounding teammates to move closer.
Real Madrid players quickly gathered towards Yang Yang.
At this moment, whether it is the live TV footage or the eyes of the fans on the scene, it must be on the Atletico Madrid players who are celebrating wildly. No one will notice the movement of the Real Madrid players.
...
"What's the matter with us?"
When everyone gathered around him, Yang Yang asked loudly.
"Do you want to be like Paris Saint-Germain?"
Faced with Yang Yang's questioning, Real Madrid's players were more or less sober.
Who said no?
If you continue to be affected by this negative emotion and continue to be suppressed by Atletico Madrid on the scene, it will be a matter of time before Real Madrid is defeated. Once the score is equalized by Atletico Madrid, the possibility of Real Madrid winning will be greatly reduced. become very small.
"For the next half hour, we must hold on, no matter what, we must hold on, otherwise we will become the laughing stock of the whole world!"
Yang Yang's stern warning cheered up the Real Madrid players.
Maybe they were a little overbearing before the game, maybe they were a little lax in their mentality during the game, maybe they looked down on Atletico Madrid, but at this moment, Atletico Madrid used two goals to teach Real Madrid a lesson.
And now, Real Madrid needs to show their dignity!
The dignity of the strong, the winner!
"Luka, your position is moving forward." Yang Yang scolded unceremoniously.
Modric was a little guilty, and nodded after hearing it, "I see."
"And you, Tony, have to run, you're being stared at, you know?"
Tony Cross nodded heavily, "Don't worry, I won't."
"There are other people too, cheer me up, be active, rush when it should be rushed, pass when it should be passed, control when it should be controlled, how we played in the first round, and how we played in the second round, Understand?"
"Understood!"
Yang Yang reprimanded the two midfielders, Toni Kroos and Modric, which can be described as shocking. Everyone in the team also felt his dissatisfaction, and at the same time, they all understood that he was indeed paralyzed.
Sometimes, this kind of emotion is unconscious, because the 3-0 lead in the first round is really too big, so big that they have some illusions, thinking that they can easily control the game and beat their opponents easily.
Unexpectedly, Atletico Madrid scored two goals in the opening game, which caught Real Madrid by surprise.
...
When the Atletico Madrid players returned to the field after celebrating the goal, none of them felt the changes in the Real Madrid players.
But after the game restarted, they realized something was wrong.
Just now they played very smoothly, no matter how they played, but now they seem to be unable to do so.
Toni Kroos started running, Modric got closer to the line of defense, coupled with Casemiro who stood firmly in position, Real Madrid's three midfielders became an unbreakable barrier in front of the line of defense again.
Isco was active again. Coupled with Yang Yang and Suarez in front, Real Madrid tried to create a threat with the personal abilities of the midfielders while stabilizing the midfield.
In the eyes of outsiders, it seems that the two goals of Atletico Madrid have awakened the Real Madrid players.
Real Madrid began to have more possession of the ball and began to stabilize their position, while Atletico Madrid began to win cards one after another.
In the 26th minute, Savage defended Yang Yang for a foul and got a yellow card.
In the 34th minute, Godin received a yellow card for defending Suarez.
In the 37th minute, Gabi got a yellow card for defending Isco.
Unknowingly, the three central axis players in Atletico Madrid's backcourt all received yellow cards.
This also made Simeone's face on the sidelines more and more ugly, because he knew that if this continues, sooner or later there will be problems, because for defensive players, yellow cards will make them restrained. When facing Real Madrid players with outstanding personal abilities, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not leak.
In the 41st minute, Real Madrid's attack from the left got a chance for a frontcourt throw-in.
Marcelo ran to the sidelines, picked up the ball, and quickly threw it to the left baseline.
Yang Yang quickly slashed diagonally from the front of the penalty area to the bottom line on the left, and stopped the ball before Savage.
Savage and Godin double-teamed towards Yang Yang at the same time, but Yang Yang dribbled the ball skillfully. After an emergency stop, he suddenly threw off Savage and dribbled the ball towards the baseline.
The two central defenders of Atletico Madrid entangled Yang Yang every step of the way, but they did not dare to foul, because they all had yellow cards on their bodies. Even Gabi, who returned to the penalty area in time behind him, also had a yellow card on his back.
On the bottom line, Yang Yang dribbled the ball to face Savage directly, with Godin on his side and Gabi behind Savage, caught in heavy siege, but just when everyone thought Yang Yang's attack with the ball had failed , At most, when he earned a corner kick, Yang Yang suddenly stabbed the ball behind Gabi, and he went around the court and sprinted forward quickly.
"A beautiful one-ball pass!"
"Yang Yang broke through the double-teaming of Atletico Madrid's three defenders and brought the ball out with a man-ball from the bottom line when it was almost impossible."
"beautiful!"
"How will Yang Yang deal with it?"
"Pass it back to Suarez!"
"Suarez hit the goal directly!"
"Oblak saved the ball..."
"Isco shoots!"
"The ball went in!!!"
"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"
"One to two, Real Madrid pulled back a round!"
"The total score is back to four to two!"
After Isco scored the goal, he rushed to Yang Yang immediately, jumped on Yang Yang's back, and celebrated the goal.
The Calderon Stadium was full of boos. Obviously, Atletico Madrid fans did not want to see Yang Yang's surprising performance.
...
After pulling back a round, Atletico Madrid's morale was hit hard.
Because after giving Real Madrid an away goal, they need to score three goals next, and more importantly, they saw Real Madrid regain their confidence and regain their fighting spirit.
After changing sides and fighting again in the second half, Atletico Madrid failed to organize an effective offensive. On the contrary, in the 68th minute, Modric volleyed from the outside of the penalty area and failed to hit the right position. The penalty area rebounded and landed on the left side of the goal, but Yang Yang reacted the fastest and beat Savage into the goal with his foot.
Two to two!
In the end, relying on the goals of Yang Yang and Isco, Real Madrid drew 2-2 with Atletico Madrid in the away game. With a total score of 5-2, Real Madrid eliminated their rivals in the same city and advanced to the Champions League!
But Yang Yang soon encountered a big trouble.
