Chapter 221 Another narrow victory!

When Atletico Madrid defeated Valencia 3-0 at home, shocked Spain, the performance of the Galaxy Real Madrid also lived up to expectations, defeating La Coruña 3-1 at home.

In the first game of the New Year, Boske's team also played in excellent form.

Morientes, Zidane and Raul scored goals respectively, showing Real Madrid's excellent frontcourt attack power.

Zidane also proved his value as the world's number one superstar with his outstanding performance in recent times.

At the Camp Nou Stadium, Barcelona also defeated Zaragoza 2-0 with goals from Cruyvit and Saviola, and scored a valuable three-pointer.

These two games have proved something again. Although the situation in La Liga is now chaotic and the heroes are competing for hegemony, in fact, the strongest ones are still Real Madrid and Barcelona.

As for teams such as La Coruña, Valencia, Vigo Celta, etc., it is still okay to take advantage of the chaos of the two heroes, but the gap is still too huge if you really want to compete with the two heroes.

On the contrary, Atletico Madrid has been unanimously recognized by the media and fans so far this season, both the performance of the stadium and the individual strength of the players, especially in terms of player strength, many superb stars have emerged.

Needless to say, Torres and Villa are known as the backbone of Spain's forward line in the next decade. Kaka's performance is getting better and better, and has also received widespread attention and praise.

In addition, midfielders Deco, Xavi Alonso and Marcos Senna are also impressive, especially Xavi Alonso, who is increasingly showing the style of a general.

Not to mention the media's praise, even Guardiola has selected Xavi Alonso, praising the Basques for themselves, Spain's most promising organizational midfielder should be selected into the Spanish national team as soon as possible.

It can be said that with the current lineup strength and potential of Atletico Madrid, almost everyone agrees that the Bedding Legion has the ability to break the two heroes and revive the glory of the traditional third giant in La Liga.

After playing the 19th round of the league, Atletico Madrid immediately rushed to the away game to challenge Cordoba.

In this critical showdown, Gao Han boldly rotated the lineup and successfully defeated Cordoba 2-0 away and entered the semi-finals with one foot.

But after returning to Madrid, Malaga's tenacious sniper at home.

The two sides played hard to distinguish at Calderon Stadium. Atletico Madrid, who played at home, missed a lot of opportunities in the game, but in the 89th minute, he forced a breakthrough in the middle and created an opponent's foul in the penalty area.

The red card added a penalty, and the Brazilian midfielder took the penalty and scored one to zero.

With Kaka's goal, Atletico Madrid narrowly defeated Malaga 1-0 at home.

But at the post-match press conference, Malaga's head coach Joaquin Perro publicly accused Kaka of fake falls, believing that his players' defense did not foul, and awarded a red card and a penalty kick, but the rotating referee favored the home team and made a biased penalty to help Atletico Madrid win.

Gao Han refuted it in person, believing that the foul of the Malaga player was undoubtedly and that the referee's penalty was not a problem.

"Yes, there is no doubt that Kaka was not injured, which is a celebration. But it is not considered that giving a red card and penalty to a foul on a Malaga player is too heavy. It is definitely a malicious foul."

"I'm definitely willing to guarantee my personality. Kaka is the most upright player I've ever seen!"

Kaka also expressed gratitude for the support from the head coach in an interview with the media and reiterated that he did fall to the ground because of a foul rather than the so-called fake fall.

At the same time, after the game, many media, including Spanish National Television, also watched the game video, and finally agreed that Kaka was indeed fouled, and there was no dispute over red cards and penalty kicks.

But, in any case, the remarks about Atletico Madrid being favored by the referee spread wildly.

…………

Three days after playing Malaga, Atletico Madrid ushered in the second leg of the quarterfinals of the Copa REE.

In a row of double matches, Gao Han had to rotate the lineup again.

In the end, with Kiko's goal, he defeated Cordoba 1-0.

The total score of two rounds was 3-0, and Atletico Madrid reached the semi-finals with his head held high.

The other three teams entering the semi-finals are Real Madrid, La Coruna and Athletic Bilbao.

After the draw, Atletico Madrid was in a bad luck and won the stronger La Coruña.

Naturally, Real Madrid met Athletic Bilbao in Heinx.

The two rounds of competition are January 23 and 30 respectively.

…………

…………

January 20th, the 21st round of La Liga.

Atletico Madrid challenged Espanyol away. The game lasted for 80 minutes, and the score was still zero to zero.

The two games for a week after the winter break obviously affected Atletico Madrid's state. Although he took the initiative on the court with his own strength advantage, he was unable to break through the goal of Espanyol.

On the contrary, the home team waited for work and relied on more full rest and preparation, which made Atletico Madrid a headache.

In the last ten minutes, Gao Han had to give it a try again, replaced veteran Jiko, and played the three forward tactics.

Just like when fighting Malaga, all the skill cards were thrown out.

Finally, in the 88th minute, a retreat from Kiko took the ball and passed it behind him. Torres successfully counterattacked and pushed the ball calmly, scoring the winning goal for Atletico Madrid.

One to zero!

Another narrow victory!

He returned to Madrid from Barcelona overnight, disbanded the team, and returned home.

The soup is still simmering in the kitchen, it smells very fragrant and tastes delicious.

Gao Han knew that this must have been left for him by Lin Xia.

After drinking the soup and washing the pot by the way, Gao Han couldn't help but recall the game that had just ended.

Winning is very dangerous, even a little bit...

In recent times, Atletico Madrid's performance has indeed declined. At least on the court, it is no longer as dominant as in the first half and is as powerful as it is in the first half.

Many outside media believe that this is because Atletico Madrid's two-front battle has caused players to be exhausted.

But Gao Han knew that it was not.

The pre-season training method he bought in the coaching system store was indeed quite effective. At least until now, Atletico Madrid has adjusted it well and rotated it slightly, and there is no physical problem at all.

As for the injuries, there are no serious injuries, but there are some minor injuries.

Even an old patient like Kiko has not stopped playing so far this season.

Moreover, whether it is the physical test report given by the medical department or the physical fitness report of Buenaventura, they all told Gao Han that although the two-front battle is very strong, it is not the reason for the team's decline in performance.

The real reason is that from the second half, all La Liga teams have understood Atletico Madrid's tactical ideas and provided targeted containment tactics.

This is actually not surprising at all. After all, the head coaches of other teams are not just for a good meal.

Now it seems that Gao Han must give a substitute plan as soon as possible so that the team can effectively make changes and adjustments when the 4312 formation is curbed by the opponent.

Moreover, this bench plan must also be in line with the characteristics of Atletico Madrid.

In other words, the entire offensive and defensive system cannot change much, and high-level defense and mid- and backcourt ball control must be retained.

This is a bit difficult.

Gao Han leaned on the soft sofa, closed his eyes, and entered the coaching system store.

The tactics sold in the store are still dazzling and countless, and each one praises itself like a flower, and blows it as if it is invincible in the universe.

But Gao Han is no longer the young man who just came into contact with the coaching system. Now he is already very skilled in using this system. He quickly passed the store screening options and removed most tactical formations that were not suitable for him.

But even so, there are still dozens of different formations and styles of play.

Gao Han was not in a hurry. He slowly looked at each set and studied it slowly.

As early as a year ago, Gao Han realized that the tactical formations sold in the shops were quite clever. Some were the life-long essence of the predecessors, some were the coaching experiences of the current head coaches, and some were unprecedented and unheard of.

For example, there is a set of tactics in the store that is very similar to Michels's full attack and defense, and there is also a set of tactics that are very similar to the style of playing in the German Beckenbauer era.

There is also a set of tactical playing styles, which are exactly the same as Cooper's four, two, three, and one double low-rise formation style in Valencia. It was just a tall name and was utterly pissed.

There is even another style of playing, with 433 as the formation, focusing on high-level pressing and ball control. It is said that after practicing skillfully, he can maintain a ball control rate of more than 60% when facing any opponent, which is the strongest in the universe.

After understanding the preciousness of these tactical formations in the store, Gao Han naturally would not let it go easily. Whenever he had time, he would come in and take a look, study and think about it, and learn the strengths and advantages of various tactics.

Although I couldn't appreciate the essence of it if I didn't buy it, just observing and studying like this will benefit Gao Han a lot. His tactical literacy is no longer comparable to a year ago.

After a round of screening, Gao Han's target was finally locked on two sets of tactical formations, and both of them were very good at the name.

Super running and bombing! The strongest two ribs in history fly together!

This is a four-three-three formation. The front is mainly tactical fulcrum center, and the two wings are cut inward as an assist in the offensive scoring method.

It is still a high-level defense, and the midfield is also a three-middle midfielder. It has a weak ball control ability and is even better at pressing and pressing. In addition to organizing the midfielder, the left and right and left midfielders are mainly active running and defensive coverage to ensure the team's defense is stable.

To put it simply, this is a relatively rough set of fast whirlwind-type tactical styles.

Compared with Atletico Madrid's current 4312, this set of two ribs is like losing Kaka, a front midfielder, adding a Kiko-type center, and then pulling two forwards to the wing.

Another set of names is called Passing the Christmas Tree, which takes both home and away games!

The formation is 4321. Compared with Atletico Madrid's current 4312, it has won a forward and added a front midfielder to improve the midfield's ball control and support ability, and can also free the forward and Kaka, the front midfielder.

Both the two formations are similar to the four, three, one and two sets that Atletico Madrid are now familiar with. The team should be more skillful to use.

However, these two sets look pretty good and are quite necessary. How should I choose?
