880 Big Dangerous Game
Sarki and Capello once conducted an analysis on a TV show. These two gold medal coaches and tactical masters all jointly determined one thing, that is, to crack Real Madrid's tactics, there can only be two directions.
These two directions actually represent two extreme football concepts.
Real Madrid's football is running, fast, skill, control, and all attack and defense. To deal with Real Madrid, you must play faster than them and run more skillfully when your skills are on par with Real Madrid. Then, through this way of playing football, you can seize control of the game with Real Madrid to control the confrontation control.
Saki believes that if he wants to defeat Real Madrid openly, he can only use this method. He also said that Barcelona, Villarrell and other teams have tried to defeat Real Madrid with this tactic, but they all turned into a complete defeat because these teams cannot achieve all-round suppression.
Barcelona's skills are very delicate, and to some extent, they are even thinner than Real Madrid. After all, players are shorter on average and faster and faster. They can also cooperate with the ball with a tacit understanding, but their running without the ball is not as good as Real Madrid, because they run more on three points, but Real Madrid runs liquidly on the whole.
Let's put it this way, what Barcelona's no-ball run can do is to interact with each other, but what Real Madrid can do is to complement each other.
It should be said that the tactical systems of the two teams have been different from the day they were established. Barcelona is to ensure ball control, Real Madrid is to ensure effective control of games and offenses, so Barcelona's off-ball run tends to serve how to ensure the team's ball control rate, while Real Madrid is to serve its own tactical ideas.
Therefore, if Barcelona wanted to seize control with Real Madrid, they ended up in a crushing defeat. Even Barcelona was beaten to the point of being defeated by Real Madrid because this battle for control must be based on an unreserved attack. Once one side has a disadvantage, it will end in a crushing defeat like an avalanche.
There is another tactic that can restrain Real Madrid, which is another extreme, defend the enemy!
All teams that like offense and control have no choice but to trolley barrels. Why? Because there is no room for offense!
All offensive teams will not push the opponent too hard. One very important reason is that once the opponent is crushed to death, the opponent's defensive space will be completely compressed. It is equivalent to turning the opponent into an iron barrel formation, and then compressing its own offensive space, which will eventually become a fierce attack, but it will never work.
This kind of defense is mainly high pressure and high pressing, shrinking within the 32-meter area of the team, taking advantage of the advantage of defense within a narrow range. By orderly and targeted arrangement of players to defend against each other, the players' connections on the opponent's ball path are cut off, and the opponent's ball path is completely cut off, and the defense is finally guaranteed to be stable.
But the disadvantage of this kind of defense is that once this tactic is used, you must devote yourself to it, which will inevitably lead to a complete one-sided game. The defensive side will be at an absolute disadvantage and passive situation for most of the time, and will not be able to pose an effective threat to the opponent.
This tactic is undoubtedly led by Mourinho's Chelsea. It emphasizes pressing and oppression, disrupts the opponent's passing and control rhythm, and cuts the opponent's ball path out of the threatening area, causing the opponent to have a ball possession rate, but cannot get the chance to score.
So Sachi and Capello are both saying that if someone can restrain Real Madrid, the most likely one is Barcelona and Mourinho's Chelsea, but now, Barcelona is obviously going downhill. The only hope is Chelsea.

"It seems that Mourinho is here prepared!" Yang Cheng stood beside the coach's seat and watched Mourinho command the team to shrink the defense. "He must have focused on practicing this set of tactics before, ready to deal with us!"
Now Real Madrid has a very obvious advantage on the court. If he hadn't known the team in advance, he wouldn't have guessed that this was the Champions League final between Real Madrid and Chelsea, because teams that were originally at the same level or at similar levels have now become a one-sided situation. Chelsea was compressed by Real Madrid for a long time and beaten up in the penalty area.
"Be careful of Xavi? Alonso, Mourinho will definitely stare at him!" While watching the game, Raul was also analyzing the game, because he was preparing to consider problems with the head coach's thinking anytime and anywhere.
Yang Cheng nodded, "He must be prepared, but have you noticed that Xavi Alonso is very experienced. Once Chelsea players follow him, he will retreat deeply. Mourinho cannot completely disrupt the team's defensive arrangements in order to defend Xavi Alonso."
After hearing this, Raul frowned carefully and thought about it immediately.
If one person is to be arranged to defend Xavi Alonso, it means that Chelsea's defense will inevitably lose one strength, which will bring some unpredictable factors and risks to Mourinho's defense.
Real Madrid is an active attacker and the risks are controllable, but Chelsea responds passively. They dare not let themselves have a slight risk, so Mourinho's players dare not follow after Xavi Alonso retreats.
"Let them pay attention to the rhythm, don't be too radical!" Yang Cheng asked Raul to convey.
The current situation is very beneficial to Real Madrid. As long as we continue to maintain this momentum and continue to persevere, there is a high possibility that Real Madrid will win the game, because Chelsea players are not robots. They may be able to survive the suppression in a short period of time, but long-term suppression will inevitably be a mess. As long as they make mistakes, Real Madrid will have a chance.
After Raul conveyed Yang Cheng's request and instructions, the players on the court knew how to play.
Yang Cheng actually means that they are smarter, one fast and one slow, one fast and one slow, not just attacking hard, and finally blocking the attack space in front of Chelsea's 32-meter area. Wouldn't that fulfill Mourinho's wish?
He believes that Mourinho must now do everything possible to ask the players to lock the 32-meter area of his team, so Real Madrid is now going to seduce Chelsea players out of their position, and then suddenly make a quick interlude attack, grab Chelsea's loophole and attack, and then create a threat.
Of course, this is not an easy task. After all, it is easy to imagine how difficult it is to chisel a hole in Chelsea's iron-clad attack. But it requires patience and time.
It's like the duel between two peerless masters in martial arts novels. Before the fight, they stood opposite each other, focusing on observing each other's every move and breath. The whole process is full of temptation, seduction and illusion, which is to lure one side to take action first, then wait for an opportunity to move, and then hit it with one blow.
Therefore, the masters in martial arts novels often kill themselves with one blow. And this game is actually the same!

The more powerful the competition between opponents, the more it actually tests the team's integrity, patience and experience.
Experienced teams know how to maintain a peaceful mentality and patience when they maintain their advantages for a long time but cannot score goals. Teams with a slightly frizzy teams are often easily stimulated by the opponent and reveal their flaws.
Real Madrid and Chelsea are both top-notch teams. After being trained by Yang Cheng and Mourinho, both teams have rich game experience, especially their ability to fight tough battles is outstanding.
When the game reached this situation, both sides knew very clearly how to maintain it, and they patiently continued to implement the head coach's tactical arrangements and arrangements. For them, the head coach is God, at least before the game ends!
In the whole first half, Real Madrid had the advantage, with the ball possession time reaching 76.2%. It can be said that most of the time they were attacking and actively looking for opportunities, while Chelsea hurriedly and passively defended in front of the 32-meter area of its own. Neither side was willing to make a mistake, and neither side showed any flaws.
This situation was maintained at the half-time break, but at the beginning of the second half, the head coaches of both sides tacitly did not choose to adjust, but continued to adopt the same strategy and tactics, resulting in the game continuing to connect with the situation in the first half. There was no change at all.
"The game looks one-sided. There are no thrilling threatening shots, which seems a bit dull. But all the fans at Wembley Stadium, and even we believe, that all the audience in front of the TV can feel a kind of depression that is coming and a kind of tension before the storm."
The on-site commentator was analyzing the competition conscientiously. He was obviously attracted by the atmosphere on the scene. He felt like his heart was blocked by something, and he was so bored that he wanted to vent, but he didn't know when he could have some pleasure.
He also believed that all the audience was waiting like him, waiting for a refreshing vent.
Of course, it is also possible that this dullness will remain until the end, and eventually it will turn into a draw or even a penalty shootout, which is quite boring, and this game will become a big boring game.
Football matches are sometimes a movie, and the current situation is a bit like Lin Lingdong's [Prison Storm]. The whole movie is progressing in a dull and depressing way. If there is no last moment of explosion, perhaps this movie will become a bad movie, but with the final emotional explosion, this movie will become a classic.
The same is true in this final today. If there is an outbreak, no matter who scores the goal, this game will become a classic, but once there is no goal, everyone may criticize the mediocrity of the two teams.
But before the whistle of the game arrived, everyone was waiting for the moment of explosion!

As a player, Schweinsteiger feels more deeply about the current situation than anyone else.
He is a midfielder and a core organization, so he always pays attention to the two people, Xavi Alonso and De La Reid. He noticed that the two of them have a tacit understanding of their division of labor and are very skillful in cooperation. They always advance and retreat, and stand in front and back, always maintaining a kind of echo and cooperation.
The current situation is very depressing. Real Madrid has been attacking for such a long time, but has never found an effective way to break through Chelsea's defense. This is definitely a loss of morale to the team. But interestingly, Xavi Alonso and Delarede can effectively create opportunities for teammates to change the pace of the game, change the situation, and thus ensure that teammates focus on playing the game to the greatest extent.
This is true for everyone. If you always walk at the same pace, there will definitely be many people falling asleep, but it will be faster and slower, making it easier for people to focus, and the rhythm is controlled by the feet of Harvey Alonso and Delarede.
"Their control and game awareness are too strong and excellent!" Schweiingsteiger praised.
Often, only a very small action or a pass is needed, they can change the rhythm of the game and adjust the team's offensive direction. This ability can be achieved in today's football world, but Real Madrid has two at once, which shows how strong the team's control is.
If Xavi Alonso and Delarede are responsible for controlling the rhythm and pointing out the attack direction, then David Silva, Parejo and Kaka are responsible for delivering shells to Real Madrid's frontcourt. The ball path is pushed to their side, passing through their feet, and immediately becomes a sharp and fast arrow, thrusting straight into the opponent's vital points.
Chelsea were exhausted throughout the game. They were dealing with Real Madrid's constantly changing offensive direction throughout the game.
"If you continue like this, will the game turn into a draw?" Sven Bend said with concern that he is Yang Cheng's favorite player, and naturally he also hopes that his head coach can win.
Looking around, many people were also thinking the same, with worries. Especially young players including Tony Close, Bad Stuber, etc., were obviously full of worries, worried that Yang Cheng's team would be dragged to death by Chelsea.
There are countless cases in the football field. Every season, some top teams will be dragged to death by opponents who are inferior to their own strength on the court, and they will eventually be tied or suffered a tragic upset. In short, they will be very depressed.
"Don't worry, the boss must have a solution!" Desler was very confident in Yang Cheng and comforted his teammates with a smile.
Barack looked grim. "As time goes by, the game situation will become more and more serious, and the requirements for players will become more and more stringent, especially in the second half of the game, you must be more focused than the first half."
After hearing Barak's words, everyone couldn't help but look at him. Barak has the most experience in the team in the game.
"We can't feel it in the stands, but in the game, we can feel that atmosphere. Playing football under high-intensity pressure for a long time, the physical energy is lost particularly severely, and it is even easy to cause technical movements to deform. When physical energy disappears, if you don't invest more concentration, it often means that the risk of mistakes is increasing!"
Everyone plays football. After listening to Barak's words, they will naturally understand that because their physical fitness has declined. If they cannot control their body with willpower and concentration, in fact, the human body will unconsciously develop a kind of slackness. Once they are slack, the body's reaction will decrease, which will eventually lead to mistakes.
"Now is the time to really test the two teams!" Barack looked at the scoreboard and it was still 0:0, but time steadily jumped into 70 minutes, but neither Yang Cheng nor Mourinho made substitution adjustments.
Both of them are very clear about the current situation. No one is willing to easily change and break the current situation, and then give their opponents an opportunity to take advantage of it. Therefore, they have not made any substitution adjustments and are waiting for the opportunity.
The more this happens, the more people feel a sense of depression. It seems that something is about to explode, but it is suppressed desperately. This directly makes everyone look forward to the game and look forward to the arrival of the explosion moment.
"In fact, you should be able to find that we often encounter this kind of time, but whether it is Real Madrid or Chelsea, their players are obviously more mature and reasonable in dealing with this environment and situation, and it is worth learning from, especially their concentration and fighting spirit in the game!"
Barack is very clear about his responsibilities in this German national team, so he hopes to use his experience and consciousness to help his juniors in the national team, regardless of whether they listen or not, at least he does what he thinks he should do, that is enough.
"Michal is right. Now is the time to really test these two teams. It's heroes or bears. It depends on the last 20 minutes!" Kyle also spoke up to support Barack's statement.
The old players of the two teams said this, and everyone knew that it must be reasonable. They couldn't help but focus more on the game, especially some young players, who watched the game attentively.
After all, for any professional player, being able to watch this heavyweight showdown in person, especially feeling the atmosphere of the game at close range, is an experience and growth that cannot be ignored for them.
At least, watching such a game can give them a clear mind, what is the competition between the top teams? This personal experience is more effective than Yang Cheng said in a few hours.
It is because of this that Yang Cheng gave so many tickets. He hoped that the German Football Association would organize these international players to come to Wembley Stadium to watch the game in order to hope that they can experience the game in person.
After entering 70 minutes, time seems to be very slow. Everyone can feel that the air in the stadium seems to be condensed together and becomes very depressing. The entire stadium seems to have just been pulled out of the washing drum, which makes people feel a sense of depression that can't breathe and may suffocate at any time.
But the more this happens, everyone pays more attention to the game on the court, as if there is the only exit, and there is fresh air at the exit, which can breathe without any scruples.
Just as everyone's emotions were about to collapse, the situation on the court changed suddenly.
Sneider seized an opportunity and passed a high and half ball, giving it to Diego Milito in front of him. The Argentine striker pulled the gap. This time he successfully completed a chest stop, turned around and drove the ball forward.
On the other side, Etoo was quickly crossing Aveloa, waiting for an opportunity to launch a counterattack.
Chapter completed!
