At half-time, Carlo Ancelotti set the tactics for Real Madrid for the second half.

"Pay attention to the defense in the second half, the goal of Liverpool in this game should be to win, they will continue to strengthen the attack in the second half, what we have to do is to stabilize the defense, especially pay attention to the marking of Jiang Chenxi."

Carlo Ancelotti wrote on the tactical board and told everyone what to do in the second half.

"Keep an eye on him, don't give him a chance to shoot!" Carlo Ancelotti said to Pepe, "Pepe, you were too slow to react in the first half. ”

"My responsibility." Pepe raised his hand, "I didn't expect him to move so quickly on his feet." ”

Ancelotti nodded and did not continue to criticize Pepe, this is an experienced veteran player, just mention it, they will adjust the game themselves.

……

"Varane, you need to be more vigilant." Carlo Ancelotti said to the other centre-back: "The Chinese's skills are better than expected, his explosiveness is amazing, you have to pay attention to your selection." ”

Varane nodded with a serious expression, Real Madrid's physiotherapist was massaging him, Varane can be said to be the most tired defender in Real Madrid in the first half, because he was fast enough, so Ancelotti arranged for him to keep an eye on Jiang Chenxi, let Pepe assist him, throughout the first half of the game, Varane can be said to have done his best to prevent Jiang Chenxi, the Chinese shooter has a lot of off-ball running, running ghosts, Varane has to run with Jiang Chenxi, his physical exertion is very great.

The thought of continuing to defend the cheerful rabbit-like Chinese in the second half made Varane a little distracted.

The Chinese's physical fitness surprised him, and he felt that if he maintained the same high intensity as the first half of the game to defend Jiang Chenxi, after 90 minutes of play, this game might be the hardest game he played.

"And Salah, the Egyptians and the Chinese have a very tacit understanding."

"Treat Salah, don't give him room to break through." Ancelotti said, "If you can't do it, you will foul!" ”

Hearing Ancelotti say this, Real Madrid's players all nodded, Jiang Chenxi's two goals in the first half came from Salah's assists, they can be regarded as seeing the tacit understanding of the former Basel twin stars, thinking that these two people made Barcelona suffer when they were in Basel last year, and even almost overturned in the gutter of the 2012/2013 Champions League quarterfinals.

……

"Intensify the scramble!"

"Run more!"

Carlo Ancelotti finally stressed the need for the team to run more.

In the 2013/2014 season, Carlo Ancelotti was faced with the challenge of maintaining a balance between attack and defence while integrating Bale into Real Madrid, and the Italian successfully solved the problem with Di Maria switching to left midfield. However, this season, Real Madrid's already formed tactical system was forced to make painful changes after the departure of Di Maria and Alonso, and the arrival of Kroos and Ronaldo, at the cost of Real Madrid's loss of the Spanish Super Cup and the loss of two games in the first three rounds of the league.

After Ancelotti refused Real Madrid's high-level instructions to let Bale play in the left midfield, the Italian coach did not passively confront, but made more fuss about the player's running, the purpose is to maximize the strength of Ronaldo, which is also the solution that Ancelotti found to solve the problem, as long as the Portuguese superstar inspires strength and can lead the team to continuous victory, Real Madrid can run in the continuous victory, which is the biggest benefit of a team having a superstar.

For example, in this game, Real Madrid changed from 433 to 442, Ancelotti is to maximize the threat of Ronaldo in this key battle, after strengthening the manpower of the midfield, Ronaldo's position is more flexible, and under the cover of Bale, the Portuguese striker almost became a free man in the front.

Finally, Carlo Ancelotti paid special tribute to Cristiano Ronaldo's outstanding performance in the first half and encouraged the Portuguese star to continue to work hard in the second half.

Real Madrid has Cristiano Ronaldo, Gareth Bale, Karim Benzema, James James. Rodriguez, Luka Modric, Kroos and Marcelo, Carlo Ancelotti is confident of winning the game and he has a lot of cards in his hand.

……

On Liverpool's side, Klopp asked the whole team to try their best to cooperate with Jiang Chenxi and create opportunities for him.

Klopp will continue to put the responsibility of the team to continue to score goals on Jiang Chenxi's shoulders, of course he knows that Real Madrid will definitely be able to guess Liverpool's approach, but Klopp is still the same, as long as Jiang Chenxi is in good shape, the whole team will attack around him, Liverpool will always be able to find a way to score, just as Klopp can also guess that Real Madrid will focus on Cristiano Ronaldo, but he can only deploy defense according to standard procedures, and there is no good way.

"Jiang, you can be more flexible in the second half of the game, don't always choose Varane's defensive zone, you can also go to Pepe and try more." Klopp said, "Don't think Varane is a bully and keep staring there. ”

There was a burst of laughter in the locker room, and it was true, although Jiang Chenxi's second goal in the first half was scored after breaking through Pepe, in fact, Jiang Chenxi chose to operate more in Varane's defensive area in the first half of the game, and Pepe was more attracted to fill in the position to help.

'It's not just in the box, it's outside the box, even on the wing, you can try it when you're running. Klopp continued, he asked Jiang Chenxi to appear more in the attack, run more actively, and be more diverse, so as to disrupt Real Madrid's defense to the greatest extent.

If it was when he was in Dortmund before, Klopp would definitely not ask Jiang Chenxi like this, because at that time, Jiang Chenxi's biggest threat was to grab points in the penalty area and give full play to the characteristics of grabbing points, but after introducing Jiang Chenxi from Dortmund to Liverpool, Klopp was pleasantly surprised to find that Jiang Chenxi has made a lot of progress, his current foot skills are better than before, and the explosive speed has also made gratifying progress, so Jiang Chenxi is more comprehensive and more threatening. The role is greater on the offensive end.

As long as he can play the greatest offensive threat, Liverpool's attacking strength will go to a higher level, don't forget, Liverpool also has Coutinho, Salah and other offensive players, this is how the effect of one plus one is greater than two is produced, which is also the situation that Klopp wants to see.

Of course, Klopp also knows that the current Liverpool team is really a top star at present, and only Jiang Chenxi can bring a huge threat to Real Madrid at any time, and he only has this one of the cards in his hand.
