Chapter 784: Dying

"Damn, this guy should be a tortoise, right?"
Not to mention, after this guy puts on a straight suit, he is really a little bit of an Italian mafia leader, very like those bad guys in Hollywood.
I don't know why, anyway, in Luis Borini's opinion, this guy is not pleasing to the eye from top to bottom.
Thirty minutes in the first half, a sneak attack, if it weren't for Neuer's magical save, saved the Ipton, it is estimated that Atletico Madrid has taken the lead by this time.
But then?
This guy really belonged to a tortoise. Seeing that he couldn't succeed in a sneak attack, he immediately retracted into the tortoise shell, and refused to come out alive.
In the last ten minutes of the first half, Southampton made a desperate counterattack but failed to break the Atletico Madrid goal.
At the beginning of the second half, the Saints launched another wave of rush attacks, but it still failed.
This made Luis Borini on the sidelines a little bit unable to sit still.
If Simeone heard him at this time, he would nod with a smile and replied: "Yes, I am a tortoise. I have the ability. You bite me!"
Yes, this guy is so shameless and skinless!
"His defense is very meticulous, very organized and disciplined, it's worth our research!"
Compared to Luis Borini, who was a little uncomfortable, Bielsa was rather calm.
In his view, Southampton's offensive is not strong enough, nor is it completely unchanged, but Atletico Madrid's defense is indeed too tightly organized.
And this kind of rigor is not very tough, it is as rigorous as a wall, it is a combination of rigidity and softness.
It's like a mass of hard rubber. You punch it, and it dents a little bit. After losing your strength, it even bounces back.
More importantly, it is not clumsy, but because it moves a lot, this defensive system is very flexible and full of various changes.
Luis Bolini was aside, and after listening to Bielsa, he gave the boss angrily.
"Marcelo, now is not the time to tout our opponents, we should find a way to break their goals!"
But who knows, Bielsa shook his head after listening, "No, Louis, it's difficult."
"What do you mean?" Luis Bolini was a little strange.
Is it possible that Bielsa wanted to surrender with his hands up?
This is not like Bielsa's style at all!
Even, he could completely predict that if Bielsa really did this, then he must have been fired by Master Huan on the spot.
But he did misunderstand what Bielsa meant.
"When they are physically fit, it is not easy for us to break through their defense!"
When Luis Bolini heard this, he immediately understood what Bielsa meant.
Atletico Madrid has now recovered a lot of physical fitness after the intermission. Coupled with the morale of the team, it is like a batch of wild horses that have taken off their reins.
If Southampton wants to subdue this wild horse, there is no other way but to rely on grinding.
When this Mustang has the strongest character and the strongest strength, you can't fight him head-on, but you should slowly wear off his spirit and consume his strength.
In this case, the competition between the two sides is consumption, to see who consumes the other.
Of course, it is also possible that both parties will make a mistake in the process of consumption and be caught by the other party, causing a fatal blow.
For example, in the first half of more than 30 minutes, Southampton's defense was completely sparse, giving Atletico Madrid a chance to counterattack, and Tevez almost broke the goal and scored.
It can be said that if Tevez scored that goal, the game situation would completely change.
Not only did Southampton make mistakes, Atletico Madrid also had several mistakes, but the Sheets made up for it well, or Southampton failed to seize the opportunity and ultimately failed to score.
Therefore, now there is only one way for both sides to go, and that is to fight for consumption.
No matter how rigorous the tactical system, no matter how good the player is, the effect will be greatly reduced after the physical energy is consumed to a certain extent.
And Bielsa has confidence in his team. If it is really exhausted, the best chance of winning is still himself!
There is no other reason. Southampton beat Atletico Madrid in terms of the thickness of the bench!

"Fifty-five minutes, he doesn't seem to have any plans to adjust!"
Atletico Madrid assistant coach Boggs frowned and walked to Simeone's side.
Holding an Apple tablet in his hand, the application above is displaying various data of Atletico Madrid players in real time and analyzing the situation of the game.
Simeone glanced at the visiting coach's bench.
Southampton's coach Bielsa is still squatting on the sidelines, watching the game on the court, it seems that he is not in a hurry.
This made Simeone's brows frowned, "What an old fox!"
In the future, if anyone says Bielsa is not shrewd, Simeone is the first to be anxious with him.
This old guy's heart is bright!
The same is at consumption, but Atletico Madrid's tactical style makes the consumption of the players of the linen Legion even greater.
Because they need to actively run you to make up for weaknesses in technique and control.
Of course, Southampton's life is not easy. Under Atletico Madrid's tactics and pressure, their consumption is also quite large, but in general, it is a bit smaller than the Sheet Army.
"He was waiting for us to get down on the ground when we were tired before he came up to collect our bodies!" Simeone sneered.
Outside the game, he was full of respect for Bielsa.
But when he walked into the football field, the two sides were a life-and-death relationship, so in his words, he did not bring much respect.
"His calculation is shrewd!" Boggs also sneered.
But I have to say that they know their own faults and how long Atletico Madrid can survive. Simeone and Boggs knew in their hearts that they might not lose if they really had to work hard, but they were not very sure.
It can be said that up to now, it is difficult for the two sides to change much.
The key lies in the on-the-spot performance of the players on the court and the three substitution cards held by the head coaches of both sides.
Who to change? When to change? How to fight after changing?
This is the key!
"Do you think he is already considering overtime?" Simeone asked suddenly.
In the situation of Atletico Madrid, really playing overtime, the situation is very dangerous.
Because in ninety minutes, the players consume too much, and in overtime, it is simply terrible!
Boggs thought for a while, "It should be, but..."
Simeone didn't wait for him to finish, he chuckled, "But he is Bielsa!"
After speaking, the tough Argentine guy turned around and yelled at the bench, "Gilzegez, Antoine, you two hurry up to warm up, hurry, hurry, hurry!"
Two figures were quickly provoked on the bench, namely Krichowiak and Griezmann.
Obviously, they were already a little impatient in waiting. As soon as they heard Simeone's order, they immediately jumped up and hurried to the sidelines to warm up.
"Go to Krichowiak?" Boggs was surprised.
"Yes, yes!" Simeone was very sure.
"Entering overtime is a suicide for us!"
In the past season, Atletico Madrid has adopted this amazing high-intensity oppression tactic. The consumption of players is very large, and the suspense of the La Liga championship has always been maintained until the final round.
Under this circumstance, the players of the Sheets Corps will lag behind Southampton in terms of physical fitness.
Coupled with the disadvantages on the tactical level, Atletico Madrid simply cannot accept overtime.
Imagine that after 90 minutes, the players can no longer run. Playing overtime is not suicide. What is it?
"Then your thoughts..." Boggs asked.
"Use Criccioviak to replace Ilya Ramendi. The latter is already quite tired. Let Cork return to the center and liberate Isco. The team will play more long diagonal passes, find the right and let Diego Costa and Griezmann are going to grab it!"
This set of tactics, in the tactics of Atletico Madrid this season, has worked many times, and it can be regarded as one of the winners of the game by the Sheets.
It just so happened that the left back of Southampton in this game was David Alaba. The long pass was looking for the left, which happened to be used.
Bogston understood what Simeone meant, "Okay, I'll make arrangements right away!"
After using Griezmann, Atletico Madrid's tactics have changed from the original four-four-two to a four-three-three tactic.
In other words, the four one four one tactic is more appropriate.
But while Simeone and Boggs were busy arranging team adjustments and changes, Bielsa suddenly jumped from the ground and walked into the coaching bench.
Soon, there was a sudden movement on the coach and bench in Southampton.
Immediately afterwards, I saw two figures rushing out of the Southampton bench.
Amazingly, it was James Rodriguez and Sanchez.
Seeing this scene, Simeone and Boggs looked at each other and were a little surprised.
Could it be that Bielsa has to change two players to play at this time?
If so, who will he replace?
How will Southampton's tactics change?
"Interesting, this old guy is going to kill us!" Simeone suddenly laughed.
Boggs looked worried.
Bielsa is indeed dying. He did it because he has confidence in his team.
Should the substitution of Atletico Madrid continue?
Be safe, of course, wait for Southampton to change players first, observe for a while before adjusting.
But isn't this weakening the opponent in terms of momentum?
"Replacement as usual!" Simeone made a decisive decision, "Since he is going to kill him, then I will play with him to see who plays the game!"
At the end, the tough Argentine guy laughed again.
In his opinion, Atletico Madrid's ability to reach the Champions League final this season has already exceeded expectations and is considered a profit.
It's cool to be able to do a sharp job like Bielsa!
Even if he loses, he has no regrets!
If this is the case, don't think too much about it at all, go out and fight your opponents to death and death!
The somewhat contentious substitutions between the two famous coaches directly surprised the fans on the sidelines and the audience in front of the TV.
Did both sides choose to change consecutively in the early sixties?
And they all changed two in one breath, but they also kept one hand. This is obviously the rhythm of a big fight.
Ever since ~EbookFREE.me~ the fans on both sides of the stadium started to shout more happily.
The on-site commentator also shouted vigorously as if he had been beaten in blood.
"At the 63rd minute, Southampton took the lead in making substitution adjustments."
"Bielsa replaced the midfielder Modric with James Rodriguez and Kaka with Sanchez!"
"The two substitutions were both very aggressive and offensive substitutions. It was not surprising that Kaka was replaced, but Modric is replaced, is this to let Tony Cross sit in the midfield alone? ?"
"Is this too dangerous?"
"Atletico Madrid also made substitutions. Griezmann replaced captain Gaby, who was obviously already exhausted. In addition, Criccioviac replaced Ilya Ramendi, also in order to strengthen China. field."
"Both head coaches made adjustments and used up two substitutions. Let's see how the substitutions work now!"
