Chapter 949: Complete Grand Paris
In fact, not only the opponent was surprised, but even Lin Dong's teammates were a little surprised, and outsiders would speculate whether Lin Dong was injured or something, but as teammates, the Atletico Madrid players knew very well that Lin Dong was not only not injured, but also in very good condition, and scored five goals in training.
Although he was puzzled, he could know from Lin Dong's indifferent expression that Lin Dong had long known that he would not start in the next game.
No one asks, and at this time Atletico players know that their focus should be on the upcoming game, not on who starts.
"Replacing Lin Dong is Torres, Torres and Mandzukic form the front line of Atletico Madrid in this game" When the players from both sides came on the field, the live camera faced Lin Dong who walked to the bench.
In addition to the changes in the front, there are changes in the midfield, Raul Garcia starts and Gabi is partnered, there is no change on both sides, and in the backline, Gamez, who has a better defense, replaces Siqueira, and the goalkeeper is still Oblak.
As for Juventus, Thiago Silva was beaten by David Luiz due to an injury sustained in the last meeting, and there were no other changes, with four players in midfield, Matuidi and Cabaye in the middle, Pastore and Verratti on both sides, and Ibrahimovic and Cavani in the front.
"Oh oh oh ~~~ What's the situation, Ibrahimovic actually walked to the sidelines of the Atletico Madrid bench, he is provoking Lin Dong?" Provocation? It should be a provocation, because Lin Dong could see it from Ibrahimovic's eyes.
Seriously, Ibrahimovic lost the game four years ago, and this time he was able to meet Lin Dong again, and the Swede was happy because he wanted revenge, and he wanted to prove that Ibrahimovic is still the best striker today.
Unfortunately, Kujpels' red card made him miss the first leg, and in this case, the Swede can only hope for the second leg, even if his team is now at an absolute disadvantage, but for Ibrahimovic, this score does not mean anything, he has absolutely himself to change the team's disadvantage with his own performance.
And the current disadvantage is more challenging for Ibrahimovic, Da Bongxian has never been a man of peace, he is eager to challenge, eager to be the hero of the team, let alone the hero after defeating Lin Dong.
But now? Lin Dong, who he regarded as an enemy, actually sat on the bench and punched cotton, and Ibrahimovic was so depressed that he was about to vomit blood.
Ibrahimovic's provocation did not last long, because the game was about to start and the opening ball belonged to Paris Saint-Germain, so the big Paris soon had the first shot of the game.
Matuidi combined with Pastore to burst into the heart of Atletico, and then Matuidi drew the defence and sent a through ball, Ibrahimovic rushed into the box and chased the ball to complete the first shot of the game.
Oblak was very stable and focused, and Ibrahimovic's push in the box was quite good, but it was directly confiscated by Oblak.
Atletico counter-attack, Oblak quickly kicked the goal, Raul Garcia headed the ball to Gabi, Atletico captain split the side, Juanfran told to insert, down to cross.
Mandzukic, Atletico Madrid's center won the top of the penalty area against David Luiz, heading the goal, although Mandzukic defeated David Luiz, but he wanted to attack the goal easily but couldn't, and the header was high over the crossbar.
From the opening situation, the two sides were evenly matched, and the situation continued from the previous game, Paris Saint-Germain attacked, and Atletico Madrid was based on defense, waiting for an opportunity to counterattack.
But soon, the situation on the pitch changed, and let's not forget that PSG's squad was incomplete in the first leg, and they were missing the most important piece, the team's tactical core Ibrahimovic.
What type of striker is Daebongseon? With the physical fitness of a center forward and the foot skills of a wide player, he and Lin Dong can be said to be completely two types of strikers.
Lin Dong likes to rush forward, hoping to be in the front, even to the opponent's penalty area, waiting for his teammates to pass, even though Lin Dong has extremely good foot skills, but he just doesn't like to control the ball at his feet, although he has worked hard to change, but so far it is still the same.
And what about Ibrahimovic? He likes to drop back, he likes to do some good technical moves, he prefers to keep the ball at his feet and control the rhythm of the team's goals.
Lin Dong is a finishing striker, even if he has the ability to organize, Ibrahimovic is a playmaking striker, no, it should be a controlling striker, but he also has the ability to finish games.
PSG are the real PSG only when the ball is at the feet of Ibrahimovic, and that was proven in the following games.
In the fifth minute, Ibrahimovic retreated to get the ball and attacked the Atletico penalty area, Godin followed to try to stop it, but was deceived by the Swede's feint.
Gabi was added and the Atletico captain had been keeping an eye on Ibrahimovic's situation, but Gabi's arrival could not stop the Swede, who made a wall link with Cavani and then burst into the net.
"Shoot ~~~ Ibrahimovic ~~~ No~~~ Oblak, the Atletico Madrid goalkeeper did a great job, he blocked Ibrahimovic's shot again."
Two minutes later, PSG came back with the ball in Ibrahimovic, but this time it wasn't Daebon's own shot that was passed to Cavani, who fired a powerful shot that was again denied by Oblak.
Paris Saint-Germain won a corner and Cabaye sent the ball into the box, David Luiz headed the ball, but David Luiz's header was not threatening and flew straight out of the box.
In the next ten minutes, Paris Saint-Germain frequently threatened Atletico Madrid's goal under the control of Ibrahimovic, but Atletico Madrid's counterattack seemed to have completely lost its previous threat.
If it weren't for Oblak's outstanding performance, perhaps Atletico's goal would have been broken a long time ago, in fact, even without Oblak, Atletico Madrid would not have been able to withstand too bad time.
In the twentieth minute of the game, Paris Saint-Germain attacked the heart of Atletico Madrid again, and Ibrahimovic received a cross from Pastore's side.
This time, Godin learned to be obedient and did not grab it, but firmly stuck in the main position, not giving Ibrahimovic room to break through, but soon, Godin found that the opponent did not want to break through at all.
