Chapter 195 Coming out on top

Zidane stood on the sidelines in a suit and leather shoes, with a calm face.

In fact, the pressure on the Real Madrid manager is very high. In other words, there is no Real Madrid manager who is not too stressed.

With eight points behind rivals in the league, even Zinedine Zidane's prestige is feeling the pressure from the media and fans.

Casemiro made a tackle on Antoine Griezmann, and then Real Madrid counter-attacked, and finally Ronaldo's shot grazed the post and cleared the line.

Zidane pulled his hand out of his trouser pocket and applauded the Real Madrid player's attack this time.

The TV camera replayed Casemiro's precise tackle in position, and then showed the camera to James Rodriguez on the bench.

This Mr. 80 million is perhaps the most tragic Real Madrid superstar in history.

J Ronaldo, who was beautiful in the World Cup, was bought from Monaco by Real Madrid for 80 million, and soon Real Madrid's position changed, as soon as Zidane took office, he firmly pressed this 80 million Mr. on the bench, and in his place as a starter, it was the little-known Casemiro.

That's what Zidane can do. Among so many big coaches in the world, perhaps Zidane's playing career is the most brilliant, and more importantly, Zidane's prestige in Real Madrid is so great that he dares to do so.

Facts have also proved that Zidane's practice of pressing Ronaldo on the bench has not encountered much hindrance, especially as Casemiro is becoming more and more comfortable in the defensive midfield position, and James Rodlis, who has just arrived at Real Madrid for less than a season, has to rethink his future at Real Madrid at this moment.

With Casemiro on the pitch, Real Madrid's tactical counterattack can be more efficient - if the defense line is penetrated by the opponent, how can it be counterattacked. That's why Zidane is adamant about putting Casemiro on the pitch.

Although they know that Real Madrid will be resolute in defending away from home, Atletico Madrid will not slow down their attack because of this.

It's on your home turf, and if you don't get a good result at home, it's even harder to play away from home.

Under the cheers of the fans at the scene, Atletico Madrid's offensive was like a tide, hitting Real Madrid's defense again and again.

Atletico Madrid took control of the football and then pushed forward, organised and layered attacks, wave after wave.

Zidane can't be calm at the moment, and it is difficult for anyone to be calm in the face of such an offensive. In the face of such a continuous attack, the nerves of the defending side are highly tense, and who knows if a player will suddenly make a mistake and the football will be scored.

Football is a thing, sometimes luck can also determine a goal, the besieged Real Madrid is like a dancer dancing on the tip of a knife, you must concentrate and concentrate all your attention, otherwise once you don't mark people tightly, or make mistakes in your defense under pressure, you will be stabbed immediately!

Li Qingshan received the ball on the line of the penalty area, and then first carried a Varane who followed him, and then leaned on his shoulder slightly, and knocked Ramos away from the defense, but even if he carried away two defenders, Li Qingshan could not find the space to turn around and seek to shoot. Because Casemiro and Tony Rose are also eyeing him at the moment.

As a center forward, the first choice is always to seek shots, and in the absence of a chance to shoot, Li Qingshan defended the ball and passed it to Antoine Griezmann, who ran into the open space.

Casemiro quickly pounced again, as a midfield defender, a wide range of sweeping and supplemental defense is the meaning of his existence in the team.

Of course, he didn't forget to look at Li Qingshan's position.

The player who poses the greatest threat to Real Madrid is still Li Qingshan, so even Casemiro, who is responsible for sweeping in the midfield, must pay attention to Li Qingshan's position at all times.

After Griezmann received the ball, he didn't have a chance to continue to dribble forward, so he distributed the ball to the wing.

After Koke got the ball, he directly crossed it, and Li Qingshan, who was following him, completed a header in the middle, but unfortunately under the interference of many defenders of Real Madrid, the ball did not have the power to top and was easily embraced by Casillas.

"Atletico Madrid showed a very aggressive attack from the very beginning of the game, and in those minutes, except for the opening moments, it was Atletico Madrid who had the ball and attacked. Real Madrid's defensive pressure is very high! ”

The Atletico Madrid fans in the stands watched with great excitement: "Attack, attack!! Crush them!! Oh oh oh !!!!!! ”

With the clamor of the fans, Casillas was in no hurry to throw the ball out of his hands. This is always the case when playing away from home, especially a team with a very strong attack like Atletico Madrid, who will definitely use the power of the home side to attack in the opening stages.

As an experienced goalkeeper, Casillas knows what kind of rhythm is good for Real Madrid right now.

The so-called one blow, then decline, three and exhaustion.

Casillas must not have watched "The Controversy of Cao Di", but this is the truth.

What Real Madrid have to do is to slow down the tempo during this period of time, wear off the sharpness of Atletico Madrid first, and then look for a counterattack.

"Force, rob, rob!"

After Casillas threw the ball to Ramos, Li Qingshan immediately rushed up, and at the same time commanded other teammates to press up from both sides and control Real Madrid's other contact points.

Real Madrid want to slow down the tempo, and Atletico Madrid will naturally not let them go. Pressing the opposition high and forcing Real Madrid to rush the ball, it is best to let them make mistakes in the pass, and Atletico Madrid pressed very aggressively.

Ramos glanced up and saw that every Real Madrid player in front of him was followed by an Atletico player, in which case it would be too risky to pass the ball past, so he had to pass the ball back to the goalkeeper Casillas.

Li Qingshan persevered and continued to chase the ball, forcing Casillas to clear the siege in a hurry.

After Atletico Madrid won the ball at the back, continue to organize the attack!

Real Madrid's passivity during this period of time made Real Madrid fans very nervous. Under the pressure of Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid quickly lost the ball, and then had to withstand a wave of Atletico Madrid's attack.

In the 11th minute, Griezmann forced Casillas to make a save with a long-range shot from outside the box, and then Li Qingshan followed up to make a follow-up shot, which was cleared by the recovered Marcelo.

However, Marcelo was in a hurry and was cut off by Mario Suarez before he could play half of the ball, and Atletico Madrid's offensive continued.

In between this back and forth, some Real Madrid players are ready to press and grab the ball, while some Real Madrid players stay in place and stand in position to defend, so that there is a gap in the direction of Real Madrid, which has not had much hole.

After winning the ball, Mario Suarez directly played the ball into the Real Madrid penalty area.

This kind of chasing ball is the most deadly, and the defensive pressure around Li Qingshan has dropped suddenly, which makes him handle the ball more calmly.

He relied on Varane to retreat all the way, and Varane used both hands and feet, but he couldn't stop Li Qingshan.

Then Li Qingshan observed the running position of his teammates and gently moved the ball to the left.

On the left side of the penalty area, Real Madrid were unguarded, and there was left-back Siqueira – a position that Atletico Madrid had even pressed to the back.

There was no defender around Siqueira, and in the face of Li Qingshan's big gift, he did not hesitate to meet the ball directly with a burst shot.

The ball whistled over Casillas' head and then crashed into the top of the net!

1 to 0!

In the thirteenth minute, Atletico Madrid, who was playing at home, took the lead!
