Chapter 36: Use his spear to attack his shield!
At 7 o'clock in the evening, with the referee's whistle, the game officially began!
Antonini, a commentator at the Spanish Sports Channel, said loudly: "The Christmas dinner is here, and the first national derby of the season has begun! Barcelona, wearing blue and black jerseys, kicked off the ball first, and Real Madrid players wearing dark blue jerseys quickly pressed!"
"This is a game that is most critical to the La Liga championship competition this season. If Real Madrid wins, they will get rid of Barcelona with a 13-point advantage and rush towards the La Liga championship. If Barcelona wins at home, they still have hope of competing for La Liga."
From the beginning of the game, Barcelona has firmly controlled the football under their feet through excellent ball control skills. Real Madrid faithfully implemented Schuster's defensive tactics in the middle and backcourts, and used their body to fight Barcelona. Schuster's defensive tactics quickly received good results, and Barcelona's transfer was not as smooth as usual.
The game was in a stalemate from the beginning, and it was not until the ninth minute that the first shot of the game appeared - Iniesta shot a long shot outside the penalty area and the football missed the goal.
RSPN said: "Real Madrid midfielder put down his figure and used his body to fight Barcelona. Judging from the effect of the first ten minutes, it is still good. Barcelona's transfer is not as smooth as usual, and Etoo's speed has not yet been played. As for Real Madrid's offense, it seems effective and impatient. The long-distance pass in the backcourt lost its sight on the slippery turf. It is difficult for Don and Henry to get the ball, let alone score a beautiful attack."
ESPN is right, the heavy snow made the field more slippery and made the far pass lose its usual sight. On the contrary, Barcelona's short pass was easy to play, and Tang Jue and Henry could only sigh at the ball.
In the VIP seat, Blatt said in Platini's ear: "The current problems of both teams are in the offense. Barcelona is difficult to obtain offensive space under Real Madrid's pressing, and Real Madrid's offense is too simple, and it is difficult for the forward to get the ball."
Platini nodded and said, "The problems that arise in Barcelona are easy to understand. Their physical confrontation is not good at all. As for Real Madrid, they still have a way to solve them."
Shuster, who was standing in the command area, had a slightly frown of golden eyebrows. He remembered what Tang Jue said before the opening. The slippery field was good for Barcelona, but Real Madrid could also play wonderful short passes and cooperate. Should we change the tactics?
If the tactics are changed, what will the players think?
Schuster began to struggle.
...
In the 17th minute of the first half, Xavi suddenly made a straight pass in front of the center circle. The football flew towards Real Madrid in front of the penalty area. This straight pass suddenly changed the rhythm, and was a signal that Barcelona sent out an attack. Etoho took a step forward, did not stop the ball, but directly passed the football horizontally, passing the football horizontally to Ronaldinho on the right.
Ronaldinho did not stop the ball and made a straight pass. He stuffed the ball into Real Madrid's penalty area. Etoo chased the ball like a sharp arrow!
Sky TV spoke very fast: "Good ball! Barcelona tear opens Real Madrid's defense with beautiful and fast short passes! Casillas attacked... Etoo...shot!"
"Oh, the football flew out of the bottom line... Casillas made a great save and resolved Etoo's single shot!"
"However, from the cooperation this time, Barcelona has gradually gotten on the right track, and their short passes are gradually starting to show their power!"
In the stands, Barcelona fans began to cheer loudly at their players after regretting, and they received warm applause for the wonderful performances of the players on both sides.
Shuster, standing in the command area, was furious and sweated. He shouted at his guards, asking them to cheer up and focus more.
Rijkaard on the other side kept nodding, applauding, and expressing his approval.
Etoo covered his face in pain, and he lost an excellent opportunity to change the score. Ronaldinho slapped his head in annoyance. Tang Jue, who was standing near the middle circle, looked solemn. He thought for a moment, quickly returned to his half, and said a few words in Guti's ear.
Guti nodded, and the two discussed a few words. The two of them quickly separated and conveyed new tactics to their teammates. Shuster, who was standing on the sidelines, frowned and looked at his players. He knew that he had lost the opportunity. However, he did not regret that bowing to the players was not his personality. Even if the player was correct, even if the player was the star of Real Madrid, he would never bow to the players.
Sky TV said loudly: "Don and Guti are discussing what during the dead ball. It seems that Real Madrid players have to change their tactics themselves. If this is true, those rumors are true. Schuster has lost control of the team and Real Madrid players are on the road of rebellion."
After the efforts of Guti and Tang Jue, Real Madrid players all understood that when they attack, they had to change their tactics, abandon long-distance passes, and launch an attack through short passes.
...
Barcelona's corner kick tactics are not to directly kick the football into the penalty area, but to cooperate on the wings to find opportunities. Real Madrid's pressing through the middle and backcourt did not give Barcelona too much offensive space. However, Barcelona's players are not in a hurry. They patiently transferred the ball and their strong midfield strength were shown at this moment, and the football has been firmly controlled by them.
Yaya Toure, who participated in the Spanish national derby for the first time, was still a little nervous at the beginning. After nearly twenty minutes of the game, he had gradually entered the role. This young midfielder with both offense and defense snatched the ball from Dirk's feet in the 19th minute of the first half.
Real Madrid turned defense to offense, and Yaya Toure quickly advanced into Barcelona's half with football. Barcelona retreated quickly, and the blue and red wave quickly retreated back to his half.
Real Madrid need to defend and counterattack quickly!
Yaya Toure passes the ball to Sneider on the right!
Sneider, Guti and others transferred the football to the front of Barcelona's penalty area through quick short passes!
Henry did not stop the ball, and directly passed the ball to Tang Jue on the left and penetrated into the penalty area!
Cross and straight into two and one!
The word "passing the ball in front of the penalty area" is "fast!". If it is slower, even a few seconds later, the defense will lose copper and disappear immediately. Tang Jue did not hesitate. After many battles, he understood this truth and leaned against Little Milito behind him. He directly passed the football into Barcelona's penalty area!
Tang Jue's pass tore open Barcelona's defense!
Danger appears!
The Lion King Puyol is extremely experienced. He started to start the moment Henry penetrated directly. When Tang Jue passed the ball, his center of gravity dropped, his right leg was against the turf, and he quickly headed towards the football!
Seeing that he could not get the football, Henry gave up. Puyol shoveled the football out of the sideline, resolving Real Madrid's threatening attack this time. Antonini, a commentator at the Spanish Sports Station, shouted: "Pyoll made a great tackle. He destroyed Don's diagonal pass!"
ESPN said: "From this offense, Real Madrid has changed its offensive strategy. Unlike previous long passes, it is an attack through short passes. This is a change, and from the perspective of effect, it is still good."
Sky Sports Station said loudly: "Real Madrid has indeed changed its offensive strategy. When we think back to the scene that happened two minutes ago, we can definitely draw a conclusion - Real Madrid players are really rebelling!"
"This is a rare thing in history. Players change their tactics without the instructions of the head coach. God, the discord between Real Madrid and the generals has been revealed to the world! The rebellious Tang began to dominate Real Madrid's tactics!"
Johnson on the sidelines had a slightly raised mouth and a proud look appeared in his eyes. No matter whether he won this game, he had the handle to criticize Tang Jue.
"Wait for our attack, damn guy!" Johnson looked at Tang Jue on the field and said comfortably in his heart.
The nobles in the VIP seat were talking, and Brati nodded and said: "Real Madrid's attack this time is a bit savory, like Barcelona."
Platini beside him said: "It's really good. If Puyol hadn't reacted quickly enough, Henry would have had a chance to finish the shot."
Calderon said to the general manager Bardano beside him: "The quality of the attack this time is good. If we continue to fight like this, we will still have a chance."
Bardano is a player and has different perspectives on the football. He has the same view as Sky Sports Station. Tang Jue has led Real Madrid players to a rebellious path.
"This offense is really good, but the locker room won't be so calm." Bardano expressed his concerns.
Calderon looked at the general manager beside him in confusion. What does this have to do with the locker room? Next, Bardano told Calderon everything he saw and heard. Calderon's face slowly sank. The beginning of the season, the atmosphere in the locker room was very good. He knew that the conflict between Shuster and Tang Jue started from the first game of the Champions League.
Calderon thought that after time, the relationship between the two should be eased again. If we look at the results alone, this view is still correct. Real Madrid stands out in La Liga, and has an unbeaten record in the Champions League group stage, and has qualified from the group two rounds ahead of schedule.
But after Bardano's analysis, he felt a crisis. This is a time bomb that could explode at any time. How should the game end at that time? So, how will it play in the next game this season?
In this case, can Real Madrid compete for the Champions League?
Calderon thought about countermeasures with a gloomy face, and he must not let this situation continue.
...
Real Madrid players saw hope in this offense. In the following game, they penetrated through short passes and frequently threatened Barcelona's defense line. In the 33rd minute of the first half, Sneider, Ribery, Henry, and Tang Jue, four offensive players made dazzling short pass cooperation in front of Barcelona's penalty area!
Ribery passed the ball across the penalty area to Tang Jue three meters on the right!
Tang Jue leaned on Deke and raised his right foot and was about to shoot!
The Lion King Puyol took a quick step forward, raised his right foot, and wanted to block it!
The Lion King blocked Tang Jue's shooting route!
Tang Jue quickly approached the football's right foot, and his speed suddenly slowed down. He should kick it, and the football rolled to his right side!
Fake kick and real kick!
Tang Jue moved one step to the right, flashed out the shooting space, raised his right foot to shoot!
Iniesta, two meters behind his right side, dropped his center of gravity and wanted to tackle!
The next moment, Tang Jue and Iniesta's feet were almost at the same time. The football drew a strange curve among the snowflakes and flew towards the upper right corner of the goal!
Wherever football passes, snowflakes are flying in horror. From a distance, it looks like a strange dragon showing sharp teeth!
Valdes kicked the ground on the outside of his left foot and flew towards the football!
The air in Camp Nou suddenly became tense!
Barcelona fans think football is just a sharp dagger that penetrates into their hearts, making it so cold!
At this moment, Camp Nou suddenly became quiet, and almost everyone's eyes were staring at the football!
Chapter completed!
