Chapter 718: Overtime caution

According to the current UEFA rules, in the Champions League knockout, if two teams have the same big score in the two rounds and the same number of away goals, they will directly enter the overtime game and decide Out the final winner.
Among them, what fans need to know is that in the overtime game, there is still an away goal advantage.
In other words, unless the two sides did not score a goal in overtime and a 0-0 draw in overtime, only then will it enter the final penalty shootout.
And if a goal breaks out in overtime, then it is destined to end up after overtime, and there will be a win or lose.
The away goal system in the overtime period can be said to be compensation for the team in the away game in the second round. After all, compared to the 90-minute game of the two rounds, the home team has the home field advantage in 30 minutes of overtime. , And the visiting team used the threat of away goals to make up for this disadvantage.
In other words, although Liverpool played away in Atletico Madrid's Wanda Metropolitan Stadium in the second leg of the knockout round.
It seems that Atletico has at least 30 minutes of home advantage over Liverpool.
But in the case of still having the advantage of away goals, as long as Liverpool's attack is scored once, Atletico Madrid may directly explode in place.
Before the start of overtime, Klopp, as the coach, was constantly learning about the physical conditions of the players to make some changes in the rankings.
Klopp also has two substitutions in his hands, and he can directly replace players who are physically overdrawn at any time to ensure the vitality of the team.
However, with the opening of the first half of the overtime game, Atletico Madrid has given priority to its defense.
Facing Liverpool’s possession of the ball, Atletico’s defense did not press high positions anymore, but instead used the overall forward movement of the defensive line to slowly compress Liverpool’s attacking space, passing space, and giving Liverpool players control. The ball keeps creating pressure.
After allowing Liverpool to complete the offense quickly, Atletico then relied on defense to obtain the ball to fight Liverpool's counterattack.
However, Atletico may have taken into account Liverpool's ability to counterattack, the investment in the offensive end, but still continued the second half of the regular time of the second half of the offensive investment criteria.
The team's offense almost only relies on the 5 or 6 people in the midfield. After a small range of offensive cooperation and the development of individual abilities, the offensive end is completed.
Like Liverpool’s offense, lack of sufficient number of offensive support, Atletico Madrid’s offense is also unable to give opponents a close line of defense and pose a real big threat.
However, with the cheering of tens of thousands of fans at the scene, Atletico's offensive is still much better than Liverpool.
At least the team’s players’ personal abilities can help Atletico Madrid complete a good personal offense with a small range of team cooperation, to create a certain amount of pressure on Liverpool’s defense.
Atletico's offense, in addition to the display of personal ability, has almost given up the offense in the middle, but mainly uses two wing lanes as the starting point for the team's offense.
Looking for opportunities in a small area, taking advantage of the players' understanding of space, and taking advantage of speed, Atletico Madrid also began to play a very Spanish-style pass and cut cooperation.
Juan Fran suddenly jumped forward, holding the ball on the right, looking for Liverpool's defensive loopholes.
Suddenly, Juan Fran crossed the ball diagonally across the two Liverpool defenders and completed the pass. The one who received the ball was Cork who quickly passed diagonally from the center.
After receiving the ball from the bottom line, Cork faced Milner's follow-up defense. He chose to hold the ball behind his back and take it to the outside to further look for opportunities.
Milner's defensive follow is very good, but it is not easy to defend Cork's personal offense. In the process of dribbling the ball to the outside, Cork suddenly swung the ball out of his feet and moved the ball diagonally into the penalty area. Milner's defense is also unable to keep up.
Juan Fran inserted diagonally into Liverpool's penalty area in a timely manner, received the ball and completed the escape, which is an extremely wonderful offensive cooperation. Juan Fran can get a pass or hit the goal within the penalty area. .
It's just that Yang Feng's defense was too fast. In Moreno's obvious loss of defensive position, Yang Feng used his own defense this time to directly stretch his foot to clear the ball.
To be on the safe side, in order to avoid any accidents when the ball hits the opponent's player, Yang Feng's clearance ball directly took advantage of the trend and quickly kicked the bottom line without giving the opponent a second chance.
Atletico Madrid's first corner kick in overtime.
For Yang Feng, from the beginning of the second half, Atletico Madrid's corner kick has been found, never once looked for Godin's head.
But there is no way, Yang Feng can't give up the defense of Godin. After all, Godin will seize every opportunity to complete the offensive score when it comes to the key game. It is the Atletico team, in the battle of positions, the easiest to break the deadlock. Players.
Cork's corner kick was passed. This time, after hitting the front and back points many times, he chose to pass the ball to the goal and find his high point.
It's just that instead of looking for Godin, the pass is looking for Ximenez.
Skrtel's defense is constantly putting pressure on Jimenez, but with little effect.
Jimenez used his running position ~EbookFREE.me~ to directly beat Scotter, and completed a head-shaking attack in the middle of the door.
Because the ball is too close, for the goalkeeper, the reaction speed is very limited.
Fortunately, this time the header shot, although the opportunity was created, was extremely threatening, but Jimenez's header shot was still slightly higher than the crossbar, and did not shoot the goal, allowing Liverpool to escape. Robbery.
After the game entered overtime, it was a huge test for the physical stamina of the players on the field, especially the players who O'Shea was actively running from the beginning of the game and went all out in the game.
Atletico Madrid’s offense is already very dependent on the players’ running performance, and players need to rely on running to create opportunities. Therefore, at this time, the physical fitness of Atletico Madrid players is a big problem. Can they be effective? The offense is an unknown.
From the game scene, it can also be seen that the defensive end of the game between the two sides of the game, the players of the two teams, there is no good way to complete the offense to end the game.
During the 15 minutes of the first half of overtime, except for the 94th minute Atletico’s wing attack, which created a corner kick opportunity, the two teams did not even complete another shot, even on the outside. There is no chance for a long shot.
Considering defeat before winning, the two teams made a rather conservative tactical choice on the court with poor physical fitness.
Through the establishment of layers of defense, it continuously creates pressure on the opponent's offense and forces the opponent to give up the offense.
After a rather tedious first half of overtime, the score was still 0-0. In the first 15 minutes of overtime, there was not much offensive performance. The decisive victory can only be seen in the second half of overtime or the final The penalty kick is out.
