Chapter 145 Accident and tomorrow, no one knows which one will come first
Barcelona's counterattack was very sharp.
After stealing the ball, De Jong quickly moved forward.
Near the middle circle, Li Mingyu and De Jong made a two-for-one collision with the wall, and De Jong continued to dribble forward.
Li Mingyu pulled to the left, causing Atletico Madrid's defensive lineup to collapse in an instant.
Li Mingyu on the left, Messi on the right, and Griessmann in front.
De Jong's sudden dribble in, suddenly made Atletico Madrid's defensive players a little overwhelmed.
Last season, when De Jong was in the midfield, he cooperated very well with Li Mingyu in the frontcourt.
However, after the tactical adjustments this season, Li Mingyu moved from the position of the winger to the position of the midfielder in the middle, while De Jong was placed in the position of the midfielder by Koeman to enhance the team's defensive strength in the midfield.
In fact, the position that De Jong most hopes to play must be the midfielder, but he has no objection to the coach's arrangement.
Since De Jong came to the position of the midfielder, he has performed conscientiously, which has relieved a lot of pressure on Busquets.
And De Jong's heart is still eager to attack, so whenever he has a chance, he will quickly plug in, no matter whether he can touch the ball or not, he will also work tirelessly to make a trip.
Just like this time, Li Mingyu understood De Jong's thoughts very well, so he was willing to play a supporting role to help him open Atletico Madrid's defense so that he could continue to advance in the middle.
Atlético de Madrid's defense was a bit difficult to watch. De Jong dribbled the ball forward five or six meters, but none of the Atletico Madrid players came up to defend.
Simeone on the sidelines was so angry that he jumped and shouted "defense", and the midfielder Cork could only push up.
Cork's attack made Atletico Madrid's midfield completely out of touch.
De Jong did not continue to stick the ball, but passed the ball straight to Li Mingyu who had already run to the ribs of the frontcourt.
Li Mingyu received a pass from De Jong, felt the defensive position behind him with his body, turned around very quickly, and flicked the football to his side with his left foot.
The defensive players behind did not expect Li Mingyu to turn so resolutely, and immediately lost their defensive position. They could only watch helplessly as Li Mingyu turned halfway, faced the goal, and shot angrily. The football flew from between the two central defenders towards the goal.
Atletico Madrid's goalkeeper Oblak was very focused. When Li Mingyu received the pass, he was ready.
Seeing Li Mingyu's quick turn, although the central defender didn't expect it, Oblak had already noticed it.
Li Mingyu's shot angle was very tricky, and it hit Oblak's upper left hand corner.
Oblak quickly moved two steps to his left side, using his legs hard, like a big roc spreading its wings, completely stretched his body in the air, stretched out his left hand, and with a strong push, he blocked Li Mingyu's powerful and heavy shot.
Oblak, who was in the air, looked back at the goal, only to see that the football changed direction after being held up by himself, hit the upper edge of the goal crossbar fiercely, and bounced off the baseline.
There was a huge sound of breathing in the entire Wanda Metropolitano stadium.
All Atletico Madrid fans looked scared.
Li Mingyu's kick is really wonderful.
Of course, Oblak's save was even better.
After Li Mingyu saw that his shot was saved by Oblak, he hugged his head in disbelief.
Li Mingyu felt very good about the kick just now. The angle and strength were perfect. It was a must.
I didn't expect Oblak's performance to be so good that he could even save such a ball. He deserves to be the best goalkeeper in La Liga for many years.
After saving the ball, Oblak roared excitedly.
The two central defenders also rushed over with fear on their faces, and gave Oblak a high-five.
Thank you for saving my life!
A good goalkeeper is equivalent to half a team.
Nowadays, in the entire football world, excellent goalkeepers are scarce resources, and goalkeepers who can be called goalkeepers may be rare.
If a team can get a goalkeeper at the goalkeeper level, it is worth more than getting a top striker.
Oblak's save just now showed his quality as a top goalkeeper.
For so many years, Oblak has been working hard in Atletico Madrid. Many top teams want him, but Oblak is not tempted at all.
Generally speaking, the goalkeeper position, especially the main goalkeeper, is rarely transferred.
With a face full of regret, Li Mingyu came to the corner flag area, ready to take the corner kick.
Li Mingyu's high-quality curve ball flew directly to the back of the small penalty area, where the tall Pique overwhelmed the opponent's defender and scored with a powerful header. Oblak, who was in full form, directly pressed the ball under him.
The two consecutive must-goals were all resolved by Oblak, which made Barcelona's morale a little low.
But the morale of Atletico Madrid was ignited by Oblak's wonderful performance.
Although Atletico Madrid's offense still returned in vain, after falling into positional defense, Atletico Madrid's defensive toughness has obviously strengthened.
In the rest of the first half, Barcelona did not get a better chance again.
With the whistle of the referee, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid ended the first half with a score of 1:1.
When Li Mingyu returned to the locker room, he saw Oblak outside the player tunnel.
Looking at the 29-year-old Slovenian goalkeeper, Li Mingyu couldn't help frowning.
Today, Oblak's state is really good. Barcelona's several shots, whether Messi or Griezmann, can't break through the goal guarded by Oblak.
Moreover, this high-quality shot made Oblak's condition better and better.
I don't know if Oblak can continue his wonderful performance in the first half in the second half.
During the intermission, Koeman redeployed the tactical arrangements for the second half, especially telling the midfielder to be careful of the opponent's sudden attack.
In Atletico Madrid's locker room, Ibrahimovic sat on a chair, leaning against the back of the chair, put a towel on his face, and quietly listened to the deployment of coach Simeone.
In the first half of the game, Ibrahimovic did not consume too much energy.
After all, in the two consecutive duels with Li Mingyu, Ibrahimovic was replaced due to lack of energy at the last moment, so he could only sit on the bench and watch Li Mingyu kill his team twice.
That sense of powerlessness made Ibrahimovic very upset.
Therefore, in today's game, Ibrahimovic was saving his energy for the second half in a lot of the first half.
Because, this time, Ibrahimovic wants to take revenge on Li Mingyu, and tells Li Mingyu with his own goal, boy, you are too young!
In the stands outside, the fans of both sides were also fighting wildly. For a long time, the enemy of Atletico Madrid is not Barcelona, but the rival Real Madrid in the same city.
The previous Atletico Madrid was to Real Madrid, just like the Spaniard is to Barcelona, and they were not taken seriously by these two powerful giants at all.
But over the years, Atletico Madrid has quietly followed up while Real Madrid and Barcelona exchanged blood, repeatedly threatening the dominance of the two teams over La Liga.
Last season was the closest Atletico Madrid came to the championship in the past few years. As a result, it was taken away by Barcelona at the last moment. From that moment on, Barcelona has also become one of Atletico Madrid's most hated teams.
In this game, before the game, not only were the players and head coaches of the two teams fighting against each other crazily, but even the fans were crazily facing each other.
In today's Wanda Metropolitano Stadium, there are already hundreds of security personnel, for fear of any conflict between the two teams.
Due to the previous fan conflict, Chelsea was directly punished by UEFA for vomiting blood. Therefore, many teams are now paying attention to security measures.
When the players of both sides finished their break and came out of the player channel, the entire stadium was once again cheered by the fans of both sides.
During the intermission, the two sides did not adjust their lineups.
Sure enough, as Koeman expected, at the beginning of the second half, Atletico Madrid launched a quick counterattack.
At the kick-off, Ibrahimovic knocked the ball back to Llorente, and then Atletico Madrid's formation began to press towards Barcelona's half.
Ibrahimovic and Suarez are like two swords, straight into the heart of Barcelona.
However, fortunately, the Barcelona players listened to Koeman's words, and did not relax their vigilance at the beginning of the second half. The double interception of De Jong and Busquets' midfielders made Suarez not stop the ball comfortably.
Seeing that the sudden attack had no effect, Atletico Madrid's players did not make a high press in Barcelona's backcourt, but retreated like a tide.
Suarez's desire to attack is very strong today, and he is pressing crazily in the frontcourt alone.
Ibrahimovic also pressed up in a timely manner, making Barcelona's backcourt pass not so arbitrary.
However, Li Mingyu's retreat to catch the ball made the pressing of Suarez and Ibrahimovic useless.
Two consecutive quick passes made Suarez finally give up chasing and slowly retreated to the vicinity of the midfield.
However, the high-speed running for more than ten seconds exhausted Suarez's physical strength, which was not worth the candle.
Ibrahimovic is still smart, for this kind of meaningless frontcourt press, he just made a show.
Li Mingyu pushed forward with the ball.
Barcelona's formation slowly moved forward.
The two teams are too familiar, so it is basically difficult for Barcelona to take advantage of the offensive position.
However, Barcelona's current offensive tactics are very similar to the "cosmic team" back then. They use frequent passes to control the ball, allowing the opponent's defensive players to run back and forth with the ball, luring them out to steal, or by pulling, making the defensive players feel uncomfortable.
The sound of tiki-taka passing the ball, like hypnosis, made the defensive players relax their vigilance and formed a certain inertial thinking in Barcelona's non-stop passing.
This is why Barcelona's games were criticized as very boring, but they were always able to win the game.
In the first 10 minutes of the second half, Atletico Madrid's defense was able to keep up with Barcelona's rhythm.
But as time went on, Atletico Madrid's players kept following the ball and making "ineffective" runs.
This kind of running is very energy-consuming, and this energy consumption is a very passive energy consumption of the players, and the huge defensive pressure makes their hearts even more stressed, so that their physical energy consumption is even greater.
In less than 10 minutes, many Atletico Madrid players were unable to run.
It's not that their physical strength is unqualified, but because of continuous and ineffective running, they have unknowingly exhausted their physical strength.
Normal professional players will pay great attention to their physical strength distribution during the game.
But in the face of Barcelona's suffocating pass and control tactics, it is difficult for the defensive players to allocate their physical strength.
Because the rhythm of the game is at the feet of Barcelona. If they want you to slow down, you can slow down. If they want you to go fast, you have to speed up.
When facing many teams, Barcelona's possession rate can reach 7%, or even 8%.
Such a large difference in ball possession ratio is also the biggest magic weapon for Barcelona's victory.
Allowing the opponent to play in their own game rhythm is a tactical success.
As long as Barcelona's offensive success rate is not low in this kind of game, they can definitely win the game smoothly.
But, tomorrow or the accident, you never know which will come first.
Li Mingyu's very concealed through ball created a huge gap in Atletico Madrid's defense.
When the central defender was defending, he suddenly made a man-marking error. Griesmann circled a blind spot of the opponent's two defenders, quickly circled a semicircle from the offside position, and retreated to a safe position. At this time, Li Mingyu's pass arrived.
Griesmann started again, completely offside.
After receiving the ball, Griesmann has appeared near the penalty spot.
One-handed ball!
Facing Oblak's attack, Griesmann wanted to make a clever move, using the arch of his foot to kick the ball directly between Oblak's legs.
However, Oblak, who was in excellent form, immediately discovered Griesmann's intentions. With both legs together, the football was blocked by Oblak's left foot and bounced high.
Griesmann didn't care about his annoyance, and hurried forward, ready to make a header.
But the football was too close to Oblak, and Oblak directly took the football into his arms with a diving leap.
Griessmann put his head in his hands, with regret on his face.
But after Oblak landed, he rushed forward, threw the ball with a strong hand, and threw the football fiercely towards the midfield.
Ibrahimovic is already there!
