Chapter 202 Launch an impact on the great cause of the Triple Crown!
Guardiola's Manchester City shattered the dream of the Madrid duo meeting in the final.
After Manchester City defeated Atletico Madrid [-]-[-] in an away game and advanced to the Champions League final, the British media first reported the game, and the Guardian published a post-match commentary with such a headline.
In the comments, a reporter from the Guardian analyzed that Calderon’s battle has attracted worldwide attention, but it is quite different from what everyone expected. Atletico Madrid still failed to withstand the pressure brought by Manchester City at the critical moment of the game. huge stress.
Apart from a good opening period, Atletico Madrid has hardly gained any advantage.
The Guardian analyzed the game and believed that Atletico Madrid's formation was questionable.
Saul was placed in the midfield position by Simeone most of the time, which prevented him from playing his full strength in the game, and Griezmann's role in the second forward position was not as good as in the first round .
If Simeone's tactics are still the same as the first round, with a four-five-one formation, will it be more competitive to let Saul return to the wing.
In addition, the Guardian also believes that this game has completely exposed the disadvantages of Atletico Madrid's midfield.
When Atletico Madrid's midfielders were subject to the same strict restrictions, their engineering midfielders could hardly play the ball.
Saul and Carrasco, after Simeone's transformation and their own integration, have long lost the spirituality and creativity they had when they first joined.
Not only the Guardian, but the Times also pointed the finger at Simeone in their post-match comments.
There is nothing wrong with Manchester City's advancement!
The Times publicly supported Manchester City in the headline, believing that Simeone made a serious mistake in the game.
Griezmann was not excited enough, Juanfran was too nervous to perform at the level facing Zhao Jinge, and Torres was not excited at all.
"Atletico Madrid seriously underestimated the difficulty of the overall game, and they overestimated themselves, especially in the midfield and attacking line.
They thought they could tie the score by relying on the onslaught after the opening, but the facts tell us that this is a wrong and outrageous idea. "
The Times believes that Simeone's tactical thinking is to press the offense after the opening, disrupting Manchester City's rhythm and deployment, but the deployment of four engineer players in the midfield cannot support the team's tactics.
"Simeone is very contradictory. His team is not good at playing creative active attacks, but he has to attack. This painful feeling casts a shadow on Atletico Madrid's failure."
"But on the other hand, he actively pressed the attack and played vigorously in the opening stage, but when Manchester City started to counterattack, this caused Atletico Madrid's entire midfield to fall into a passive situation, which in turn made the whole situation into a passive and beaten situation. .”
A goal in the first half has actually sentenced Atletico Madrid to death.
"Guardiola has shown a very high level in terms of starting tactical deployment and on-the-spot command.
And the Manchester City team he brought out has left us an extremely deep impression in terms of overall technical and tactical level, tactical thinking, and game style. "
"Man City deserved a win, they deserved to qualify for the Champions League final."
The Times believes that both Atletico Madrid and Simeone need to reflect on this game, especially for Atletico Madrid's lineup and tactical style. They have fallen short in the Champions League for many years in a row. Perhaps it is time for Atletico Madrid to seek a change.
As for the Champions League final, The Times, which has always been rigorous, stated that Real Madrid should have more advantages in lineup and configuration. There are superstars such as Ronaldo, Benzema, Bale and Toni Kroos, and the overall pass and control tactics are also extremely skilled.
Manchester City's lineup configuration is also quite good. On top of the already luxurious lineup, they spent more than 5 million euros, plus Guardiola's meticulous work for a season, and now they have reached great success. Compared with their superstar lineup, Manchester City still looks a little immature.
But in terms of the head coach, Guardiola, who participated in the Champions League final for the third time, is obviously more experienced and experienced than the rookie coach Zidane who took over the fire this season. This is Manchester City's biggest advantage.
"I believe Guardiola's rich experience will be a major factor in Manchester City's Champions League final.
We are also looking forward to what kind of brilliant performance Zhao Jinge, who has scored 19 goals in the Champions League this season and surpassed Ronaldo to become the top scorer in the history of the Champions League in a single season, will bring us. "
On the night when the Champions League semi-final ended, the Manchester City team stayed overnight in Madrid and spent an unforgettable night happily. However, early the next morning, after necessary physical therapy, Manchester City hurriedly returned to Manchester.
After playing the second round of the Champions League semi-finals, the team will usher in the No.30 seventh round of the Premier League on the weekend. Manchester City will host Arsenal, which is currently ranked second in the league.
Although Manchester City has won the league championship, there are still two games left. For the unbeaten record of the season, they cannot be too underestimated.
And after this game, they will win the Premier League championship trophy at home. If they overturn on Arsenal at such a festive time, it will ruin the atmosphere a bit.
You know, Arsenal has been impatient to see that Manchester City is about to break their own exclusive record. Preventing Manchester City from winning the championship undefeated is their last mission this season.
Guardiola knows better than anyone else that a person who travels a hundred miles is half-ninety, and the closer to this critical moment, the more stable he must be.
Therefore, at the regular meeting of the coaches the next morning, Guardiola asked everyone on the coaching staff to cheer up, be more focused and devoted than ever before, and at the same time pay attention to the emotional changes of the players. Arrogance and impetuosity.
Guardiola said that the team's discipline will be stricter than ever before, and everyone must pay attention.
Prior to this, Guardiola had talked with the core players headed by Kompany and Zhao Jinge on the plane back to Manchester.
After doing the ideological work of the players, the club will also do everything in its power to ensure the team's preparations in the next three weeks.
From the first day of returning to Manchester, the preparation plan for the Champions League final was implemented.
Mr. arranges assistant coaches to help the players recover as soon as possible, especially the two injured David Silva and Kompany. They only suffered a little injury. It definitely has an unusual meaning.
Guardiola himself has to arrange effective targeted training for the team based on Real Madrid's tactical play. The team doctor, masseuse and everyone else have their own responsibilities and jobs.
In daily training, Guardiola also gave his own requirements.
"The daily training must be strictly implemented, especially the counter-attack training after losing the ball."
Guardiola said with a serious face.
This training is to ensure that the team can quickly organize a counterattack on the spot after losing the ball at the feet of a team with an extremely sharp counterattack like Real Madrid, so that the door will not be opened wide by the opponent's rush.
Manchester City faced Atletico Madrid and Bayern. Such things often happened, and awareness in this regard needs to be further improved.
To put it bluntly, the players have not yet reached the point of proficiency in grasping the timing of offensive and defensive transitions. In various defensive links, their performance is not tacit enough, and it is a bit rough.
Every team has its own genes and its own unique style.
Manchester City's style has never been strictly defensive. No matter in terms of age or experience, Guardiola does not think that it is a good idea to adopt defensive tactics when facing Real Madrid in the final.
Let alone whether Manchester City players will make mistakes under high pressure, whether the players can adapt is a big problem.
On the contrary, physical fitness and running are Manchester City's advantages, and their ability to pass and cut the ball is also good. This makes Guardiola believe that Manchester City can fight Real Madrid for real.
Guardiola is not afraid of Real Madrid's positional warfare. The only thing he is afraid of is being hit by Real Madrid's counterattack. Therefore, targeted defensive training is still necessary.
Not relying on defense and conservative tactics to win, but having a solid line of defense is definitely the basis for the team to win.
At least, when you don't want to lose, you can drag the game to penalties.
Besides, Real Madrid is indeed very strong and has a star-studded team, but it is not completely without loopholes, and Manchester City may not have no chance at all.
Guardiola's arrangement, the members of the coaching staff and the players who participated in the meeting all understood what he meant.
After all, none of them has Guardiola's experience in how to play in the Champions League final, and Guardiola is very familiar with Real Madrid, a former opponent, which the rest of them do not have.
In this case, Guardiola's choice is the best choice.
"Everyone!"
After Guardiola explained everything, he looked at his players and mobilized.
"Now, I believe everyone knows the situation the team is facing. First of all, I would like to thank everyone for their hard work and dedication in the past year. The team can get to where it is today, and each of you has contributed a lot."
Every player looked at Guardiola with great spirits. Manchester City's achievements are also their achievements, and they will be an indelible brilliance in their careers.
"We have worked hard and prepared for a year. Now, we have finally ushered in such an unprecedented and bright prospect. I am very excited and full of expectations like every one of you."
"But the more this is the case, the more we have to be cautious, the more we have to step by step, we have to make good use of every training session, we have to play every game well, we have to do everything well, we have to use the best mental outlook, To meet every next game and every challenge."
"I believe that in the end, we will be able to achieve a result that satisfies everyone!"
Guardiola didn't say what the result was, but everyone knew it.
The league championship has been won, and the League Cup championship has also been won.
Manchester City's next biggest challenge is the Champions League final.
Once they win the championship, they will be the treble champions of this season. Although the League Cup is not as good as the FA Cup, it is also a veritable triple crown!
Manchester City want to achieve the treble!
To achieve the Triple Crown, you must beat Real Madrid in the Champions League final!
Defeat that team, in Zhao Jinge's previous life, the epoch-making super strong team, the Real Madrid team that created three consecutive Champions League titles!
On the evening of May 5, at the Etihad Stadium, Guardiola once again resorted to a big rotation move, playing against Arsenal with a half-substitute lineup.
Wenger sent an all-main lineup to face Manchester City, but moreover formed a strong attacking lineup of four, three and three, aiming to prevent Manchester City from becoming the second unbeaten Premier League team to win the championship.
But only 4 minutes into the game, after Zhao Jinge received a pass from his teammate on the left, he threw off the defensive player and cut in to the left side of the top area of the arc, and hit the goal with his right foot, opening the scoring for Manchester City, [-]-[-]!
After getting off to a good start, Manchester City continued to pursue Arsenal, creating opportunities continuously.
No. 17 minutes, after Mane cut in from the right, he suddenly split sides. After that, Gundogan crossed to the middle of the penalty area. Zhao Jinge scored a header from close range and made another victory for Manchester City, [-]-[-]!
Under the powerful attack of Manchester City, Arsenal pulled back a goal in No. 301 minutes.
Ramsey made a diagonal pass in the counterattack, and Otamendi, under the interference of his opponent, did not go far when he cleared the header. Giroud seized the opportunity and headed the far corner to win a round for Arsenal.
After changing sides to fight again in the second half, Manchester City still launched a fierce attack.
No. 407 minutes, Fernandinho shot a cold arrow from 26 meters away, shot a long shot, pierced Arsenal's goal, and expanded the score again, [-] to [-]!
At this moment, the game can be said to have been decided.
But Manchester City continued to attack Arsenal fiercely, creating chances non-stop.
In 9 minutes, it was Mane's cross from the right. Zhao Jinge pushed a shot from close range. As a result, the football hit the side of the post and bounced out of the penalty area. Sterling's supplementary shot was saved by the goalkeeper.
One minute later, Zabaleta made a cross from the right and sent the ball to the right of the penalty spot. Mane volleyed and hit the crossbar.
After 10 minutes, Guardiola saw that the overall situation was settled, and began to make substitutions, trying to stabilize the advantage.
Arsenal also knew very well that they were powerless to resist.
Although Wenger wanted to change the situation through substitutions, he was ultimately powerless.
Manchester City defeated Arsenal [-]-[-] at home and continued their unbeaten record.
The game went on without any risk, and Manchester City also showed the strength to steadily overwhelm their opponents, which made the whole of England look forward to Manchester City's Champions League final.
Manchester City fans even chanted the treble in the stands of the Etihad Stadium at the championship award ceremony after the team's victory!
