Chapter 978

At 22 o'clock on the evening of December 10, the focus of the sixteenth round of La Liga, the world-renowned Derby of the Century will be held at the Bernabeu Stadium, and Real Madrid will play against the visiting Barcelona at home.

In the past two and a half years, Real Madrid has been beating Barcelona. Whether in terms of team honor or in terms of competition results, Real Madrid has taken the lead, which makes Barcelona very passive.

At the beginning of the season, the two teams played two Spanish Super Cups. As a result, Real Madrid won the championship with one win and one draw. However, Barcelona won the first draw in more than two years, which still made all Barcelona fans very excited. Looking forward to this match at the Bernabeu Stadium.

The last game was a draw, so will this game be able to beat the opponent?

...

Guardiola came out of the tunnel just moments before the game.

At this time, the players of both teams had already finished guessing, and each stood in their own half. Cesc Fabregas and Messi stood on both sides of the center circle and were ready to kick off. Obviously, Barcelona got the right to serve. It is also a favorable factor for Barcelona.

As long as you hold your ground at the start and hold on to the ball, the situation will move in Barcelona's favor.

But Guardiola's face still looked very dignified.

Ancelotti had been standing at the entrance of the player tunnel, and when he saw Guardiola coming out, he immediately walked up to him, smiled and shook hands with Guardiola, but the Italian fat man wrapped in a thick black Adidas down jacket let him go. Guardiola didn't like it, because the old fox's starting tactics hit Guardiola unexpectedly.

Not three backs, but double backs!

Goalkeeper Iker Casillas, Marcelo, Pepe, Ramos and Maicon in the back line, Mascherano and Xavi Alonso in the double midfield, Kaka at the top, Yang Yang, Iraq Blahimovic and Robben occupy the flanks.

This is the strongest offensive lineup from Real Madrid at present, and it is full of superstars.

Guardiola got the squad an hour before the game, he was a little surprised, but considering that Kaka had played the position of the midfielder before, he was still lucky and wondered if Ancelotti would let him. Kaka hit the back?

But he didn't like luck and luck, so he was always uncomfortable.

At this time, seeing the smiling Ancelotti again, Guardiola really had the urge to splash the hot cup of black coffee on his face, but fortunately he resisted it.

"Damn it, just went to Real Madrid and learned it badly!" Guardiola said angrily, looking at Ancelotti's back on the back of the home team's coaching bench, but quickly turned to the stadium again, full of mind and heart in the stadium , holding up the coffee in his right hand, wanting to take a sip to warm his body.

Just then, the referee from Andalusia, David Fernandez Bobalan, blew the whistle to start the game.

In the middle circle, Cesc Fabregas kicked the ball to Messi, who quickly returned the ball and passed it directly to the trailing midfielder Busquets.

Real Madrid players rushed forward at the moment the whistle sounded. Yang Yang, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Robben's frontcourt tridents pressed forward and pressed forward, not to mention Kaka. The front sprint appeared to be very determined.

This made Guardiola on the sidelines realize that something was not right.

Not the third waist!

And Ancelotti made it clear that he wanted to attack at the opening!

This damn Italian is indeed a sly old fox!

Before Guardiola's cup of coffee could reach his lips, Busquets had just stopped the ball when Ibrahimovic rushed forward, forcing him to choose to pass back to Puyol.

Ibrahimovic turned around and pounced towards Puyol.

Yang Yang on the left also approached Alves at the same time, so Puyol chose to pass the football back to the middle of the penalty area, at the foot of Pique at the front of the top of the arc, but Puyol passed the grounder.

The advantage of ground ball is that it is stable, but the disadvantage is that it is slow.

Ibrahimovic and Robben were like two sharks that smelled blood, chasing after Pique in unison.

Pique chose to turn around and pass back to the goalkeeper without hesitation. Zlatan Ibrahimovic did not reduce his speed and rushed directly to the penalty area all the way. Robben deliberately fell behind Ibrahimovic to ambush behind Pique.

Valdez is also a smart person. Where would he pass to Pique and Abidal on the left, he immediately passed the ball to Puyol on the right side of the front of the penalty area, and the choice was still a safe grounder.

Yang Yang approached Puyol from the direction of Alves, and Ibrahimovic also turned around and ran towards Puyol, forcing the Barcelona central defender to pass the ball back to the goalkeeper again.

At this time, Kaka had followed Busquets back to the 30-meter area of ​​Barcelona, ​​Pique was pulled to the right side of the penalty area, and Abidal also appeared on the outer right corner of the penalty area, ready to respond to Valdes' pass. line.

Real Madrid's frontcourt pressing was very decisive and resolute. The first four players were all pressed inside and outside the penalty area. What's more terrible is that Barcelona chose a safe ground ball from beginning to end, and refused to pass the ball to the ball as soon as possible. frontcourt.

Obviously, they all know that as long as the ball is passed to the frontcourt, it is equivalent to giving up the ball.

Facing Puyol's return pass, Valdez had no choice but to use his feet to stop, but Zlatan Ibrahimovic turned in the middle of the game for the first time and fell back to the goalkeeper, forcing Valdés. Can't stop the ball, but choose to pass the ball at the first time.

Pique was close to the bottom line, so Valdes chose to pull Abidal to the left corner of the penalty area. Because he glanced at the ball before stopping the ball, there was no defender in that position, so he didn’t stop the ball and just kicked Out the ball, to Abidal.

But as soon as the ball came out, Valdes regretted it and realized he had made a stupid mistake.

Robben's speed was too fast, and the Dutch Flying Man suddenly started, rushing from the right side of the top of the arc to the pass line, but Valdes, like all Barcelona's passes just now, used ground balls. It was stopped midway.

I saw Robben intercepted the ball with his left foot, turned around and immediately formed a counterattack.

Pique and Abidal also reacted immediately and rushed towards Robben quickly. Barcelona's defender responded very quickly. When they saw that Ibrahimovic was still near the small penalty area, they immediately chose to press forward.

At this time, as long as Robben passes the ball, Ibrahimovic falls into the offside trap.

So, the Swedish center raised his hand, but Robben didn't pass the ball because he had a better option.

After intercepting the ball with his left foot, Robben turned around and took the ball to the middle. He quickly sent his left foot laterally and sent the ball to the left side of the top of the arc at the front of the penalty area. Yang Yang, who had just pressed Puyol, was the fastest. His speed caught up, facing Robben's pass, his right foot stopped in the middle, just stopped the ball past Puyol, and then caught up with his right foot and pumped vigorously.

"A chance for Real Madrid!"

"Yang Yang just kicked up and hit the door!!"

"The ball is in!!!!"

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"

"In the 18th second, only 18 seconds into the opening, Real Madrid hit the goal with a clean right-footed curve ball from Yang Yang at the top of the penalty area, directly hitting the upper right corner of Barcelona's goal."

"Valdez made a very stupid mistake. He should not have chosen to pass to Abidal, he should have chosen to pass to the unmarked Pique, but now there is no regret medicine."

After Yang Yang scored, he quickly turned around and rushed out of the stadium, ran all the way, slipped and kneeled under the south stand of the Bernabeu Stadium, and was immediately surrounded by Real Madrid players.

...

At the side of the pitch, the coffee in Guardiola's hand just came to his mouth at this time, he accidentally took a sip, the whole person hissed, his mouth was scalded by the hot coffee, and Yang Yang suddenly came on the pitch. The goal shocked him, and in a fit of rage, he threw the coffee in his hand to the ground.

"what happened?"

"Ah? How could such a pass occur?"

Guardiola, with his arms outstretched, roared at the pitch in shock, incomprehensible.

Barcelona is obsessed with possession, but between possession and conceding, everyone knows how to choose.

At that time, there were so many players and so many passes, they should have a choice, but so many people chose the worst and worst option invariably. He couldn't understand, really couldn't understand.

You conceded the ball in the opening 18 seconds, how can you play this game?

Guardiola walked back to the visiting team's coaching bench in frustration, sat in the far corner, and sighed heavily.

"Their psychological pressure is too much, and Real Madrid's opening press is too hard." Vilanova looked at Guardiola with a bit of reproach in his eyes, because he felt strange from the beginning, why Guardiola La is so certain that Ancelotti will not attack?

But the result was good, Ancelotti really attacked, and he was still very, very determined.

After the opening, the entire defense line was directly pressed over the center line. The four players in the frontcourt approached the front of the Barcelona penalty area. This is no longer a double midfielder, this is four two four.

In this case, four grabs five, Barcelona is unexpected, and it is normal to be caught off guard and make mistakes.

Of course, the choice of the players must be wrong. Whether it is Puyol, Pique or Valdes, who has two choices, they are all blindly supportive, and they did not move the crisis out of Barcelona's penalty area in the first time.

It's like playing with fire and accidentally getting burned.

Eighteen seconds to lose the ball, this game is not easy to play.

Vilanova looked at Guardiola, who was full of disappointment and frustration. He wanted to say something. If you listened to me, maybe it wouldn't be like this now, but he couldn't say it, and he didn't dare to say it.

In the Barcelona team, no one dared to challenge the authority of Guardiola, including Messi.

But as an assistant, Vilanova is very clear that Guardiola's starting tactics guessed wrong.

Of course, no one in this world is always right, and it is normal to guess wrong. The key is how to adjust it next?

According to Ancelotti's posture, he will definitely not give up until his goal is achieved, and he will never just be willing to score only one goal.
