Atletico Madrid, who scored the first goal, did not celebrate too much and prepared for the game again.

The entire team has been under a lot of pressure recently, and even scoring goals cannot fully stimulate them.

Of course, except for a few "heartless" people.

Seeing this scene, Flores breathed a sigh of relief. If he set up a 343 formation, he would not be able to score the first goal.

Then this game will be difficult to win.

For Flores, getting into formation was a desperate move.

Since it is impossible to defend, the only option is to risk one's life.

Even if I can't defend well, I will make you afraid of my attack.

For Manzano, this goal was expected.

His expression was indifferent. As a professor of psychology, he would naturally not let outsiders see his true inner thoughts.

He clapped his hands and shouted loudly to get the players to focus.

The goal conceded just now was partly due to La Nunez.

But more importantly, it is the overall lack of concentration of the defense line.

The game continues to start.

After this head-on blow from Mallorca, the overall formation became more revitalized.

All the players were concentrated in front of the penalty area. Atletico Madrid players felt as if they were playing against Lyon.

Intensive defense!

But even so, Atletico Madrid's offense continued to press forward, like one wave after another.

Even Lindy tried two long-range shots, but they all missed the goal.

Thiago and Forlan even had many long-range shots, but unfortunately they failed to score.

All Atletico Madrid players know that once they are on the defensive side, problems on the defensive line will be quickly exposed.

Flores's arrangement before the game is: half-time offensive and defensive drills!

At this moment, Flores merges with the shadow of Coach Xie 12 years later, as if shouting the famous saying: Just press and hit!

But if you don't make achievements for a long time, the players will naturally become tired.

The 29th minute of the game.

After Atletico Madrid bombarded them for nearly half an hour, the players were a little tired.

And Mallorca is like a long-awaited red wolf, finally showing its sharp claws.

After Diego Costa's header was confiscated by goalkeeper Avat, the entire Mallorca team seemed to have received some signal at the same time.

The collective launched a counterattack, and full-back Josemi received the ball and rushed wildly from the wing.

When encountering Raul Garcia's defense, he passed the ball directly to the open space behind Raul Garcia without any delay.

This is the wide vulnerability brought by the three defenders.

Fernando Varela quickly broke in and received the ball in the Atletico backcourt.

Upon seeing this, Lindy hurriedly went up to cover the defense. His biggest task in this game was to make up for the loopholes in the defense.

However, Mallorca's attack seems to have been rehearsed countless times.

The ball directly crossed to the center. Julio Alvarez received the football in front of the penalty area and was about to hit the goal.

Young Domingos was directly deceived by him.

I saw him make a Spanish dunk with his right foot, lead forward with his left foot, and directly enter the penalty area.

Before Ibáñez, who was on defense, could get close, Alvarez struck with his right foot again.

Adulis, who followed behind, fired a shot into the far corner.

The Iberia Star Stadium instantly turned into a sea of ​​joy.

After being beaten for nearly 30 minutes, his team finally equalized the score.

Looking at the celebrating Mallorca players, Lindy felt helpless.

The opponent's counterattack was fast and efficient, obviously after long-term cooperation training.

When I was covering the wing just now, the center back retreated too quickly, and the other players retreated too slowly.

Flores felt like he had a few more gray hairs. Although he knew something like this would happen, he still couldn't avoid it.

The game continues.

But the next game was completely different from what Flores and Atletico Madrid players imagined.

"The problem with Atletico Madrid's defense is too obvious. We saw that Mallorca continuously broke through on the wing and created opportunities."

"They completely bypassed Lindy, but Atletico's sides were empty."

"If nothing changes, maybe..."

"Tuni, he broke into the penalty area from the side!"

"Shoot!"

"Oh oh oh ~ own goal! It's actually an own goal?"

"Atletico Madrid's defense has problems again, and Ibañez still cannot control the entire defense."

"There was no tacit understanding between him and Dominguez. The two pounced on the same position, and as a result, the football bounced off their legs and went into the net."

"De Gea looked helpless. It's not his fault."

2 to 1

Mallorca took the lead at home!

Before Atletico Madrid's players could get over the shadow of the own goal, they suffered another heavy blow.

The game lasted 45 minutes, just when everyone was preparing for the halftime break.

Mallorca midfielder Borja Valero retreated to the backcourt to receive the ball. While back-and-forth, he suddenly made a long pass from a long distance.

The football crossed the midfield in the air, and three figures were chasing it below.

At the forefront is Mallorca striker Adulis!

Ibáñez and Domingos raised their hands to indicate offside, but the referee was completely indifferent.

Adulis successfully countered offside!

He rushed directly into the penalty area, faced the attacking De Gea, and easily shot into the net.

3 to 1

Atletico Madrid was completely stunned. When they returned to the locker room, everyone had their heads hanging down.

During halftime, everyone was silent, even Flores.

It was just a simple adjustment to the layout, replacing Diego Costa with Paul Assuncao.

Although the latter was a little dissatisfied, there was nothing he could do about it.

Lindy looked at the tired people and had no choice for the moment.

He can't change his character, and the recent continuous high-pressure games have made the entire team feel depressed.

The Copa del Rey is about to usher in the second leg of the semi-finals, and the Champions League draw is about to take place.

Injuries make rotation impossible, and excessive fatigue can lead to injuries.

Atletico Madrid has been trapped in this endless cycle.

It would be difficult for non-rich teams to stand out in such a schedule, let alone Atletico Madrid.

The game started again in the second half.

"Okay, welcome back. The second half of the game has begun. We saw that Atletico Madrid was the first to make changes. After all, the result in the first half was really bad."

"A defensive midfielder was added and a forward was replaced. As a result, Atletico Madrid's lineup was adjusted from 343 to 352."

"It strengthens the defense in the middle and frees Lindy to support the wings."

"Let's see what happens."

Seeing Atletico Madrid's change of formation, Manzano was a little nervous at first, but as the game progressed.

He completely relaxed. In the second half of the game, he still arranged for the team to shrink its defense and wait for opportunities to counterattack.

Atletico Madrid, which was missing one offensive player, tried hard to equalize the score in the second half, but the configuration of three midfielders greatly weakened Atletico Madrid's offensive capabilities.

For Atletico Madrid, short passing penetration and cooperation cannot break Mallorca's defense at all.

At the end of the 90-minute game, the bright red 3-2 on the scoreboard meant that Atletico Madrid had lost three games in a row.

In the 45 minutes of the second half, Atletico Madrid only relied on Lindy's casual long shot to regain a point.
