Chapter 411 The Brazilian’s outbreak!

When Manchester City's counterattack began, Casemiro was behind Zhao Jinge, so the Manchester City center knocked back with understanding and found De Bruyne who came to take over again.

Teacher Ding had already freed his hands at this time. He glanced ahead and found that Mane in front was already in place.

De Bruyne made a long pass without thinking.

Almost at the moment when Mr. Ding passed the long pass, Mane seized the opportunity and used his excellent acceleration ability and technical skills to force past Marcelo from the left wing and move forward.

"After the chaos in the midfield, Manchester City seized an opportunity and the Senegalese quickly counterattacked!"

"He's too fast!"

"Oh my God, Mane is charging!"

When Mane rushed behind Real Madrid's defense, there was no one in the entire Real Madrid half.

There was only a lone Navas standing guard in front.

The Senegalese didn't hesitate at all. He could see Marcelo, Varane and Ramos chasing back quickly, but they were not as fast as him!

Mane is still very confident about his speed. After rushing up at the fastest speed, he slowed down at the outside of the right corner of Real Madrid's penalty area. When the football landed, he waded forward and suddenly accelerated to catch up. .

Just when Mane was about to pass the ball into the penalty area, Varane had already chased back to the line of the penalty area in time.

But just when Varane was about to take a step, he suddenly found that Mane had accelerated again, pulled the ball directly to the right, and entered the penalty area of Real Madrid. His whole body rushed forward like an arrow, and because of The problem with Mane's cutting angle was that Varane was unable to commit a foul.

Mane dribbled the ball into the right side of Real Madrid's penalty area and caught up with the ball in his best area. Facing the attacking Navas, he calmly kicked a low shot.

The ball passed Navas and hit the right side of the goal.

"GOAL!!!!!" "Mane!!"

"Two to zero!"

"Oh my god, Manchester City scored two goals in less than 25 minutes!"

"Mane used a very sharp kick, which was like a lightning-quick anti-offside kick, and single-handedly scored Real Madrid's goal."

"Both Manchester City's wingers are very fast. We must admit that Manchester City's several counterattacks tonight were very decisive and sharp, making Real Madrid unable to defend them."

"More importantly, Real Madrid's defense pressed too high, exposing a large gap behind them."

After Zidane saw Mane successfully countering offside, he already had an ominous premonition.

Seeing that Varane failed to catch up, he knew that the ball was most likely going to be bad.

Sure enough, Mane shot from the right side of the penalty area, where he is best.

At that moment, Zidane raised his head and felt a pain in his heart.

The tactical system he designed for Real Madrid is nothing to say. On the surface, it is passing and controlling the ball in the middle and breaking through from the side, but in fact it is an overall pressing and pressing.

Everyone knows that in addition to offense, tactics must also include defense.

But Real Madrid's style of play is too forward. The advantage of this is obvious, that is, the passing area is as close to the opponent's goal as possible. This is Real Madrid's advantage, because they both have the best in the world. The midfielder!

But when the area that presses the pass moves forward, the defense must also press forward.

When Toni Kroos, Modric and others are passing the ball near the opponent's 30-meter area, the central defender and defense line are basically near the center line.

Then the question arises, once the ball is intercepted and beaten behind, what should you do?

When encountering speedy players like Mane and Zhao Jinge, there is basically no solution.

It doesn't even need to be at their level, as long as it's a slightly faster forward, there's no way.

In this regard, Zidane adopted a pressure in the midfield and frontcourt, which was almost suffocating.

This is a tactical concept from Van Gaal. After losing the ball, you must get the ball back in the shortest possible time.

Of course, this is unrealistic.

But the purpose of this concept itself is not to seize the ball 100%, but to allow all midfielders and frontfield players to actively engage in counterattacks on the spot.

Only by actively counterattacking on the spot can the team ensure that the team puts enough pressure on the opponent in the frontcourt so that the opponent cannot launch an effective counterattack and buy time for the team's defensive positioning. This requires every player in the midfield and frontcourt. Every player has to burn himself and work hard!

But now, Real Madrid has a problem in this link.

Especially the second goal conceded just now was hit directly behind him.

How did De Bruyne get the chance to pass the long ball?

You know, long passes are different from short passes. Long passes require time and space.

But he just passed it, which proves that Real Madrid's frontcourt pressure was not in place. Some players were affected by conceding the ball or for other reasons. In short, they did not achieve the perfection of their abilities!

At this moment, Zidane really felt depressed.

He has no doubt that his team has encountered some problems that even he himself cannot solve.

That is, when this group of successful core players begins to no longer devote 120% and begins to no longer actively and focused on executing his tactics, what can he do?

The answer is, there is nothing he can do.

Fire them?

Putting aside personal relationships, this is impossible even from the club's standpoint.

Whoever wants to fire them, Real Madrid fans will fire this person first. Which of those players is not a superstar? !

Zidane has spoken to them many times, and the players have constantly reassured them that they will work hard.

But sometimes, laziness is something that occurs unconsciously and does not depend on human will.

Just like that time just now.

Although there is still a long time, but after conceding two goals in the first 20 minutes, how can this game be played?

However, in the good Real Madrid team, most of the players are still extremely motivated, such as the two wingers they rely on the most, Bale and Neymar!

Bale wanted to win out of the competition with Neymar, but instead of going to Paris, Neymar, who chose Real Madrid, just wanted to become the world's next football king!

Both of them are desperately trying to prove that they are capable enough to lead Real Madrid back to glory!

After the game restarted, Neymar reached out for the ball.

His teammates trusted Neymar's ability and immediately passed the ball to him when he saw him asking for the ball.

Unsurprisingly, in the face of Neymar's all-out efforts, Manchester City reacted quickly. The three forwards in the frontcourt began to retreat, and Zhao Jinge and Mahrez began to surround Neymar! Zhao Jinge appeared in front of Neymar. The Brazilian winger was not careless this time. Although the opponent was not a dedicated defensive player, judging from his previous defense, Zhao Jinge's defensive ability was not bad.

The Brazilian made a fake move and shifted his center of gravity to the right. At the same time, he leaned forward and kept raising and lowering his right foot holding the ball, ready to break through at any time.

Seeing Neymar's move, Zhao Jinge immediately became vigilant.

coming!

The dilemma faced by defensive players when facing Neymar!

Ignore his fake moves, and he will turn them into real ones and then break through. If you follow his fake moves, he will adjust with faster speed and pass by.

In short, no matter which choice you make, it seems to be wrong!

Zhao Jinge often uses this move in one-on-one situations, and the effect is very good. The success rate in one-on-one situations is extremely high.

Knowing the power of this move does not mean that Zhao Jinge can prevent it!

After all, he is not Neymar, so he doesn’t know what the other party will choose.

When he uses this method to pass people, he makes the final decision based on the defensive player's choice.

Seeing that Zhao Jinge had not made a choice, Neymar immediately took advantage of the situation and completed the breakthrough from his right side.

Zhao Jinge turned around a step slower, and when he turned around to chase after him, it was already too late.

Mahrez saw Zhao Jinge being passed and immediately came up to intercept.

Neymar passed the ball to Carvajal, who came for reinforcements, and Carvajal went down the wing.

Manchester City full-back Clichy rushed forward, but Neymar followed closely. He received Carvajal's back pass and immediately cut inside towards Manchester City's penalty area.

Stones immediately stepped forward to intercept and block, denying Neymar the space to shoot and break inside.

Neymar once again passed the ball out, and Modric did not know when he had already penetrated to the front of the penalty area.

After receiving Neymar's pass, he passed to the left side of the penalty area. There is currently no one here, but Modric, who has a high football intelligence, knows that Neymar will definitely run here.

Sure enough, Neymar did not watch how Modric handled the ball after passing the ball. He chose to believe in the tacit understanding between his teammates and him.

If Neymar runs directly to the open space on the left side of Manchester City's penalty area, Manchester City's defenders may be more vigilant.

But Neymar was smart. He took a step back after passing the ball and made a reverse run.

This confused Manchester City's defenders and prevented them from keeping up with Neymar when he ran back, giving Neymar space to receive the ball!

For a player like Neymar, giving him such space is definitely a fatal mistake!

When people arrive, the ball arrives!

Neymar just ran into the open space on the left, and Modric's pass came as promised.

The rest was simple. After Neymar stopped the ball with his chest, he sent the ball into Manchester City's goal with a sweep.

Manchester City's defenders raised their hands and thought it was an offside goal.

However, the linesman did not raise his flag and the referee ruled that the goal was valid.

The slow-motion replay of the scene showed that the ball was indeed within a few millimeters.

When Neymar was running back, Manchester City's defender just moved forward, causing the ball to look like it was offside.

If Neymar's start speed had been half a second faster, or if Manchester City's defenders had moved the defense forward faster, then the ball would have really been offside.

In the 29th minute of the game, with Neymar's goal, Real Madrid got a goal back!

Real Madrid fans at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff can finally breathe a sigh of relief and celebrate after a long absence!

Neymar, the hero of the goal, celebrated the goal by kneeling down and shooting.

For this showdown between Manchester City and Real Madrid, the outside world believes that the biggest highlight is the direct dialogue between Neymar and Zhao Jinge.

Neymar became famous the earliest and has won many honors. Before he came to Barcelona, he was already a well-known genius boy in the football kingdom of Brazil. At that time, Zhao Jinge was still an unknown young man from a small German town.

But before the game, all outside media were more optimistic about Zhao Jinge, and it was Zhao Jinge who scored the first goal in the game.

This also made Neymar feel a lot of pressure and willingness. In the past, the two monsters Messi and Ronaldo were on top of me. How could I let Zhao Jinge, who is so much younger than me, completely compete with him now!

Well now, he finally scored a goal, and finally he will no longer be compared with this guy!

It's strange to say that no matter how much the outside world hypes his fight with Messi, some people even say that he will leave Barcelona because of Messi, although this is also true.

But for his good friend Messi, Neymar's mentality has always been relatively peaceful.

He does not regard Messi as his real opponent in his heart, and he does not care much about such hype.

But Zhao Jinge is different!

From the first day he saw Zhao Jinge play, Neymar realized that this guy would become his biggest competitor!

He has been following Zhao Jinge for almost two seasons. During this period, he even gained some insights from Zhao Jinge's skills and methods of playing football, and used Zhao Jinge as a mirror to improve his own strength.

Although he has never admitted it in public, in Neymar's heart, he has long regarded Zhao Jinge as his biggest opponent!

Therefore, he cares more about this Champions League final than outsiders think!

In his mind, if he can win this game, it means that he will reach the ranks of Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Zhao Jinge, represent this year's Golden Globe Award, and represent the number one person in the world!

Therefore, Neymar today is extremely eager to score goals and win!

Seeing Neymar's goal, Zhao Jinge was a little helpless.

It's really not easy to guard Neymar, but I shouldn't have hesitated just now.

You should make a decisive move and take a gamble to see who can react faster. The main reason why he and Neymar are difficult to guard against in this way is that they move faster with their feet and can react after the opponent makes a choice. , strike later.

Of course, even if the two of them move equally fast, the initiative is still in Neymar's hands, and he is in a disadvantageous position of passive defense.

Therefore, in such a confrontation, I am afraid that I will win less and lose more.

Is there any way to limit Neymar?

Zhao Jinge fell into deep thought.
