Chapter 861: Tough away game


After the difficult away draw with Valencia, Real Madrid is also very tired, but they still have to continue to fight.
The next opponent, for Real Madrid, is the mid-strength Villarreal.
The performance of the yellow submarine Villarreal over the years has begun to show a significant recovery.
Last season, Villarreal played well and successfully stood out from the rest of the teams. After Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid and Atletico, he grabbed the fourth place in the league and successfully entered the Champions League this season. During the game.
Although Villarreal's league record was not ideal because of his distraction in the Champions League halfway through this year's schedule, he was ranked sixth in La Liga.
And Villarreal's home record is very good.
In the 12 league home games this season, Villarreal has 7 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses. The home record is quite outstanding. For Real Madrid, this game is definitely not an easy game to win.
Among the nearly 6 encounters between the two teams, Real Madrid has not won the game 3 times. It can be said that Villarreal is definitely one of Real Madrid's sufferers.
Like most teams, in the La Liga with distinct factions, the Spaniard’s main task outside of relegation is to play well in the home and away derby with Barcelona.
These two games.
In the game against Barcelona, ​​the Spaniard will always change the previous style of play, playing very tough in the game, not giving Barcelona too good offensive opportunities.
Compared to the fierce confrontation with Barcelona, ​​the Spaniards face Real Madrid more of a so-called symbolic battle, playing far less fierce than the same city Derby.
For Real Madrid, this game is a rotation battle after the fierce Champions League match. Zidane will not let all the main players come and go for a "weaker" opponent like the Spaniard.
For this game against the Spaniard, Zidane continued to continue his rotation policy.
In this game, Zidane not only placed the main players on the bench, but even on the squad before the game, Real Madrid clearly demonstrated that this game will undergo a fairly large-scale rotation.
The starting goalkeeper Navas in the previous game, the defender's backbone Ramos, midfielder Modric and Benzema on the front line, none of the four starting generals in the last game were included in the big list.
Although Real Madrid has retired four main players, there is still good news for Real Madrid to return, that is, Bell, who was injured for 88 days, can finally return to the game. He has entered the team's roster and has the opportunity to play for Real Madrid.
In the starting list reported 2 hours before the game, Zidane will rotate to the end.
The 433 lineup commonly used by Real Madrid this season is discharged. The starting goalkeeper is Casilla, and the defensive veteran Pepe partner Yang Feng has become Real Madrid's double center back. Pepe is also the captain of Real Madrid in this game.
On the right, Carvajal, the left back is not Marcelo, and the starting player of the left back is Real Madrid’s defender, Nacho.
Although Marcelo was on the big list in this game, Zidane put him on the bench as a backup, which is also a proper rotation.
If the offensive situation on the court is unfavorable, Zidane may replace Marcelo for a left-wing breakthrough. If the situation goes well, Marcelo should also be given a chance to rest in this game.
In the midfield, it is Kovacic, Kroos and Isco who form the three midfielders of Real Madrid. Casemiro, who also performed well in the Champions League, is also on the big list in this game, but sits Waiting for an opportunity on the bench.
On the front line, the offensive trident sent in this game is Vazquez, Ronaldo and Morata who replaced Benzema.
Real Madrid’s lineup, although as many as six players were taken in rotation compared to the previous game, but it also has super strong offensive strength and can compete with the Spaniards.
.
Real Madrid dare to carry out such a large-scale rotation, on the one hand, the Spaniards are not strong, and Real Madrid is still sitting at home, with the absolute advantage of the right time and place.
On the other hand, Real Madrid has the belief that such a "little brother" has a handle on the Spaniard.
And in the past 20 matches between the two teams, Real Madrid have remained unbeaten. In recent years, Real Madrid has even double-killed the Spaniards in the league.
With the further enhancement of Real Madrid's overall strength this season, in this game, even though Real Madrid has carried out a considerable rotation, the outside world also agrees that in the Bernabeu’s home stadium, Real Madrid will never have any possibility of overturning.
.
However, at the beginning of the game, Real Madrid did not get a good chance. Instead, the Spaniards who played away played were quite active in the start.
In today's game, the Spaniard did not completely give the rhythm to Real Madrid at the beginning, but used his running ability to give play to his physical advantage on the field, and used running to create obstacles to Real Madrid's offense.
The two teams are more fighting between the midfields, and Real Madrid did not, as everyone imagined, firmly grasped the initiative on the field at the beginning and obtained better opportunities.
Real Madrid’s first attacking opportunity to create a real threat was in the 12th minute of the first half of the corner kick. The veteran Pepe who played this game, after Ronaldo and Yang Feng all rushed forward to attract a large number of defensive players. At the back point, the opponent's defense is weak and seize the opportunity to complete a head shake.
Pepe, who has been in the battle for a long time, has grabbed the spot 6 meters from the back point this time, but there is a certain problem in the control of the header.
Peppa's top ball went off the post and did not score the first time for Real Madrid. Peppa also covered his face with both hands after seeing the ball fly out of the baseline, which seemed a bit disappointed in the wasted opportunity.
After all, it was from behind the small penalty area to point the header at such close range. This time Peppa still seemed to have a chance to deflect the ball with enough reaction time.
If this goal is really Cristiano Ronaldo, or a good header like Yang Feng, if you get this opportunity at the back point, the probability of scoring may be greater.
.
However, this time the corner kick tactics can be regarded as a prelude to Real Madrid's offensive.
After spending the first ten minutes with the Spaniard's midfield fight, Real Madrid gradually began to return to the game state, and began to control the initiative during the game, constantly creating opportunities.
In the 19th minute of the game, Isco created a left corner kick.
Then in the corner kick tactic, Isco made a beautiful tactical corner kick and Tony Cross completed a long shot from the periphery of the center.
It’s just that Tony Kroos made a high-quality long shot this time, but it was a pity that Diego Lopez, who was familiar with him, made a wonderful save and did not score a goal.
.
Immediately after three minutes, Ronaldo completed a beautiful breakthrough through the crotch at the left bottom line, successfully breaking through David Lopez.
It's just a pity that Ronaldo's inverted triangle pass was first rushed to complete the clearance by the Spanish defender.
. Shih Tzu Literature
People always say that Ronaldo’s ability at the feet is not as good as Messi, but you must know that when Ronaldo was at Manchester United, he was also a chasing teenager with excellent feet ability. His wing breakthrough ability and foot skills are also very good. Gorgeous.
It's just that in Real Madrid, with the gradual adaptation to Real Madrid's tactical style, Ronaldo transformed into a pure shooter. After Ronaldo began to increase the physical strength of the confrontation, it inevitably caused some decline in flexibility, but some fancy Cristiano Ronaldo still has the foundation of football. This time, the light wear of the crotch to get rid of it reproduces the style of Ronaldo in the Manchester United era.
And Real Madrid's continuous offensive cooperation finally scored in the 33rd minute of the game.
Taking advantage of an opportunity for a sideline kick, Carvajal quickly sent a sideline ball and found Isco in the frontcourt. After the Spaniard had returned to defense, he played 4 against 8, but the Real Madrid players were still very attacking.
Isco chose to be on the right, and after receiving the ball, he knocked it across to Cristiano Ronaldo, who was in the middle.
Ronaldo attracted a number of Spanish defensive players in the center after receiving the ball, and then passed the ball back to Isco again.
Isco's excellent technical ability at his feet made the Spaniard's defensive players dare not go too far, but could only hold on to their position to prevent Isco from dribbling through.
However, Isco suddenly passed the ball from outside the penalty area, and the ball was arced to the back point without the defensive player's attention.
At the back point on the left, Morata followed quickly.
Morata carried two, using his height advantage to carry two defensive players, and after using running to throw his body out, he completed a header rush.
The height of the two Spanish defensive players is a huge weakness, and the confrontation ability is not strong, allowing Morata to get a full take-off opportunity. 1 to 0!
Morata scored a header and broke the deadlock for Real Madrid.
This is also Real Madrid's 42 consecutive official games scored, also tied the best record in team history
.
Real Madrid's terrifying offensive firepower once again established a lead for the team in the first half
.
After taking the lead, Real Madrid did not relax in the game, but continued to strengthen their offense.
Two minutes later, in the opportunity of a free kick in the front court, Tony Cross chose to hang the ball directly into the penalty area.
It was Morata again, who rushed forward to grab a shot ten meters in front of the goal, but it was a pity that Morata shot the ball high this time, and the ball flew out of the baseline against the crossbar, and did not score.
Before the end of the first half, Real Madrid once again missed an excellent opportunity. Ronaldo quickly broke through from the right side of the penalty area, and then chose to pass the ball to the goal.
Cristiano Ronaldo’s quick pass successfully crossed Diego Lopez’s defensive range, but Morata, who was at the back of the ball, did not touch the ball this time because he was a step slower in forward.
Once again missed a chance to score a goal for the team.
Real Madrid entered the intermission with a 1:0 lead.
For Real Madrid, what is needed is to continue to maintain the suppressive power of the first half in the second half, to strive for another goal to get a two-goal lead, then you can sit back and relax at home.
As soon as the second half of the game began, Bell got instructions from Zidane to warm up on the sidelines.
This is also the first time that Bell has recovered from injury for Real Madrid after 88 days.
However, the first to be replaced by Zidane was midfielder Casemiro. In the 60th minute of the game, Casemiro appeared on the field and replaced Kovacic.
The appearance of Casemiro began to further strengthen Real Madrid's defense in the midfield to ensure the team's defense and try not to put down a big mistake.
In the second half of the game, Real Madrid wanted more to launch their own efficient counterattacks on the field, but facing the Spaniard is not a full-scale attack, Real Madrid did not have too many opportunities to further rewrite the score.
However, the Spaniard has no way to threaten Real Madrid's door. The score of 1:0 between the two teams is actually enough for Real Madrid to win the game.
However, after all, a score of 1 to 0 is the most dangerous lead. Real Madrid is still looking forward to another goal and expand the lead.
In the 71st minute, Zidane sent Bell, which was also the first time Bell returned to the court after 88 days.
Bale replaced Morata to further strengthen the team’s ability to counterattack in the frontcourt. After all, if there is a Bale, it will be more convenient for Real Madrid to pass the ball quickly in the backcourt. Just pass the ball and let Bale chase it. All right
.
Facts have proved that this time Zidane's substitution has received the desired effect.
Between 70 and 80 minutes of the game, Real Madrid missed consecutive opportunities. First, Tony Cross made a cross. Ronaldo’s header at six meters in front of the goal was higher than the crossbar, a little too close. You can rewrite the score.
Immediately after two minutes, Vazquez attacked the goal from a small angle on the right rib of the penalty area, but it was a pity that he hit the post and hit the bottom line.
In the 80th minute of the game, Tony Cross again passed a free kick from the front court. In the penalty area, Pepe again shook his head in front of the goal, which was slightly wide.
.
Today, the Spaniard’s defense of Cristiano Ronaldo and Yang Feng is quite targeted. In the set-piece, it is entirely to limit the performance of the two men and ignore Pepe’s point, but Pepe still plays less this season. .
Although he may still be able to use his veteran experience in defensive state, he is obviously not as tough as he was in offensive state.
Fortunately, ~EbookFREE.me~ In the 83rd minute of the match, Real Madrid finally extended its lead.
.
In the face of a free kick in the Spaniard, Real Madrid all retired, after all, only one goal lead, Real Madrid dare not make too many mistakes.
However, this time after the Spaniards all pressed on, the free kick passed directly to the penalty area was first cleared by Yang Feng, and the ball was shot outside the penalty area. It was Ronaldo who received the ball.
Cristiano Ronaldo chose to take two steps forward. When confronted by the opponent's frontcourt, Cristiano Ronaldo quickly completed the pass and found Isco near the midfield.
Isco dribbled the ball to the left to contain the opponent's defense, while Bell used his own speed from the center to rush forward.
Under the pressure of the opponent's defense, Isco still sent a precise through ball, directly behind the Spanish defender.
Bell fully released his speed, completed the overtaking, got the ball before the big penalty area, and directly faced Diego Lopez single-handedly.
