Chapter 92: Real Madrid's counterattack

"Godin !!" When Duan Xuan saw the football fly into the goal, he jumped up from the commentary seat, raised his arms and shouted!

"Atletico Madrid took the lead! In the thirty-seventh minute of the game! Atletico Madrid found the back of the net with a tactical combination of a corner. Atletico Madrid leads Real Madrid 1-0! ”

The entire Stadium of Light was filled with cheers from Atletico Madrid fans. In Madrid, the Plaza de Poseidon became a sea of joy, with fans waving the Atletico Madrid flag and cheering for the team's goal.

After the goal, Godin ran to the corner flag area and listened to the cheers of the Atletico fans with open arms.

The Uruguayan, who was the first to score in a Champions League final, slapped the Atletico Madrid emblem on his chest at the Atletico Madrid fans in the stands. Other excited Atletico Madrid players rushed up to celebrate the goal with him.

The televised broadcast began to replay Godin's goal.

When Gabi's corner kick bypassed Real Madrid's defense in front and in the middle to the back point, it was Li Qingshan who responded at the back point. Seeing this, Casillas naturally blocked the near corner of the back point - everyone knows how threatening Li Qingshan's header is.

But when Li Qingshan headed the ball a little and ferried the ball to the middle, Casillas hurriedly rushed to the middle, however, the experienced Casillas made a mistake at this time, he slipped under his feet, and almost fell to the ground, and by the time he reacted, Godin, who was also excellent in header skills, had already completed the header against Khedira. Despite the slow speed of the header and a noticeable parabola under Khedira's interference, Casillas was unable to prevent the ball from going into the net.

Since Casillas was abandoned by Mourinho last season, although Mourinho left Real Madrid and Casillas has re-established himself as the goalkeeper of Real Madrid, Casillas's form has not been at his peak.

This cannot but make people sigh, maybe after next season, the veteran goalkeeper who has been in the goalkeeping for Real Madrid for more than a decade will have a hard time appearing on the goalline of Real Madrid - Real Madrid are now already looking for a replacement for Casillas, and Manchester United goalkeeper David De Gea is Real Madrid's number one target.

Now, Casillas could only slowly get up from the ground, and the Real Madrid captain personally scooped the ball from the inside of the Real Madrid goal and threw it into the center circle.

As the captain, Casillas did not say a word, after all, he was responsible for the goal conceded. Ramos, who was vice-captain, was not welcome, and he yelled at Khedira, who failed to stop Godin's header, accusing Khedira of defending poorly.

Khedira ignored Ramos's accusations with a blank face, as a German, his presence in the Real Madrid dressing room was low, and he did not have the guts to confront the Spanish boss in front of him. It's just that Khedira's accusation against Ramos in his heart is still very aggrieved - he is already as close to Godin as possible, and under the circumstances at that time, don't all the players of Real Madrid think that Li Qingshan will directly head the goal........

Ramos snarled at his teammates, but it still looked like it was working.

When the game resumed, Real Madrid began to fight back in full swing.

Real Madrid's offensive firepower is among the best in the world, and when Real Madrid is attacking at full strength, Atletico's defense is not comfortable. Moreover, Real Madrid's players are very good at their individual ability, and they can often use the individual ability of their stars to create a big threat in some places.

Especially when Bale on the flanks began to exert his power, the rumors began to rise in front of Atletico Madrid's goal.

In the 39th minute, Bale took the ball and accelerated directly past Felipe and dribbled towards Atletico Madrid's penalty area. It's what Bell does best. His pace scares all defenders.

Cristiano Ronaldo intervened on the other side, and Benzema responded in the middle. However, Bale didn't seem to see Ronaldo and Benzema in the penalty area, and after taking the ball into the penalty area, he shot directly with his right foot at a small angle!

Courtois, who blocked the near corner, did not dare to be careless in the face of this shot and blocked the ball off the line.

Benzema didn't care about continuing to prepare for corner kicks, while Ronaldo on the other side was very angry about Bale's choice, he was dancing alone on the other side, and he was chanting words in his mouth, which seemed very atmospheric.

Bale also regretted his head after his shot was saved, but he also ignored Ronaldo's reaction, and as for what Ronaldo was saying, he didn't care - he didn't understand Portuguese anyway.

Don't speak Portuguese, Bell still doesn't know Spanish. He is a "maverick" player in the Real Madrid team. The Real Madrid team is organized according to nationality, and as a Welshman, he has no compatriots in the Real Madrid team, and he has no intention of learning Spanish. As a result, Bale has always been a loner at Real Madrid, and he has basically no personal relationships with his teammates at Real Madrid.

Real Madrid's corner kick was pushed out of the box by Atletico's defence, and the second point was then controlled by Real Madrid.

Luka Modric controlled Real Madrid's tempo in midfield. In the absence of Xavi Alonso, the onus of Real Madrid's midfield commander fell on the Croatian player.

He actually agreed with Bale's choice - because Real Madrid's attack relied on passing and did not pose a great threat before, since Bale worked well alone, it was better to try a few more times.

So once again he distributed the ball to the right and handed it to Bale.

Bale took the ball at a different pace than other Real Madrid players, he even stopped, overtook from the outside lane after the ball was divided, and once again Felipe was left behind!

He then drove the ball straight in, and before Miranda could step up to block, he had another shot that had already bypassed Courtois's fingertips and grazed the post at the other end.

No matter how unhappy Real Madrid's other two strikers were, this is the second time Bale has threatened Atletico Madrid's goal in the same way!

Simeone, naturally, could not ignore Bale's threat. Felipe struggled a bit against Bale alone, especially after leaving too much space behind him for Bale to sprint. So he quickly made an adjustment to let Ardaturan continue to retreat a little, compressing the space on that side and keeping Bale's sprint speed from getting up.

After such an adjustment, the threat on Bell's side was contained. However, pressing the hoist to float the scoop, the threat on this side weakened, and the rest of Real Madrid's attacking points began to unsettle Atletico again.

Di Maria and Cristiano Ronaldo's threat on the left is starting again.

Di Maria drove the ball forward on the left flank, and he quickly advanced to the edge of Atletico's penalty area before handing the ball to Cristiano Ronaldo in the ribs.

Cristiano Ronaldo took the ball, and Atletico Madrid's defenders were even more careless.

This is a two-time Ballon d'Or winner, and this season alone, Ronaldo has scored a suffocating sixteen goals in the Champions League. In the face of such a player, no defender in this world dares to take it lightly.

Juanfran and Thiago blocked Ronaldo's prospects, with Godin and Koke behind them. Within the confines of this small part, Atletico Madrid gathered four defenders.

However, it was in this situation that Ronaldo found a way to shoot, and after a slight adjustment, he started to shoot, and the ball passed between the four Atletico defenders and headed straight for the Atletico goal.

Courtois didn't dare to pick up the ball with his hands in the face of this powerful shot, but instead knocked the ball out of the box with both fists.

On the outskirts of the spot, Luka Modric picked up his thigh and fired a direct volley, and the ball went just over the crossbar.

"Real Madrid launched successive attacks in the final stages of the first half and Atletico Madrid's defense looked a little chaotic!" Duan Xuan said with some concern, "Fortunately, the first half of the game is coming to an end at this time!" ”

Simeone stood on the sidelines, his expression was a little serious, during this time, Real Madrid's counterattack did make Atletico Madrid's defensive pressure very high, especially the threat of Real Madrid's two wings, and the individual ability of the two wingers of Real Madrid, who is worth 200 million euros, is really strong. He was really worried that Real Madrid would score during this period of time - being equalised by their opponents in the final stages of the first half, which was too much of a blow to the team's morale!

Fortunately, after Modric's shot, the first half of the game was almost over.

By the time Courtois had the ball stumbling through, the referee on duty blew the whistle for the end of the first half.
