Vol 4 Chapter 860: Road to the handsome

The Bernabeu Stadium, the visiting team's locker room.
This is the first time Real Madrid has used the visiting team's locker room in recent years.
In order to give players a better preparation environment, Real Madrid also specially modified the visiting team's locker room before the game, and also arranged more staff in the game to provide full service for the players.
This is the advantage of home battle.
Temporarily behind in the first half made Real Madrid players feel depressed, and the opponent's strict defense, so that the team was very stumped, but also no good strategy, so that after returning to the locker room, everyone was silent.
Yang Yang was sitting paralyzed in front of the closet, his head was raised, his face was covered with a wrung towel, and a club masseur was squatting in front of him. He was massaging the muscles of his legs. , But Yang Yang did not respond.
He is thinking about something.
The other players in the locker room were also thinking about things dumbly, so that no one spoke, and the atmosphere seemed a bit stiff.
The goal of Diego Milito hit Real Madrid so much, especially on the psychological level that everyone now knows that changes must be made in the second half, but no one knows how to change.
In other words, no one can see the hope of winning.
Mourinho's Inter Milan is really desperate on the defensive level.
...
Benitez walked into the locker room, and the look on his and Jesterdan's faces was dignified.
Obviously, they also realized the difficulty of the second half of the game.
In the face of Inter Milan, any team can only attack one way.
The problem for Real Madrid is that it must score at least one goal in the 45 minutes of the second half.
Benitez actually couldn't come up with a very effective solution, because this time he faced a wall of copper and iron. More emphasis was placed on speeding up and transferring, but there were not many specific details.
Today's Real Madrid is like Barcelona in the semi-finals. It really can't come up with an effective offensive strategy.
The players clearly felt this, and all of them were empty and deflated.
Questioning Benitez is not enough, but it must be somewhat disappointing.
Casillas is also aware of this, as the team's captain on the field, Raul is the only captain after leaving the team, the Real Madrid goalkeeper stands up to encourage his teammates, hoping that everyone can continue to inspire and strive for momentum in the second half To create more opportunities.
But such a slogan doesn't make much sense, because the Real Madrid has already performed well enough in the first half.
At this time, what the team needs is an effective, targeted strategy.
Players need to see hope!
As long as there is hope, they will have enough confidence and confidence!
In terms of player strength, Real Madrid's lineup can be said to be the best in the world. As long as they have enough confidence, they are not afraid of any team.
Casillas was also aware of the lack of interest in his teammates. Obviously, he was still unable to persuade his teammates. Looking around the locker room, he looked at Yang Yang and Ramos, hoping that they could stand up and say Order something.
Ramos lost his face and was frustrated with the goal in the final half of the first half.
Even if he doesn't have much responsibility.
Yang Yang looked at Casillas and then to Benitez and Yesterdam, their eyes full of encouragement.
At this time, Real Madrid really needs him to stand up and say a few words to boost morale. Even if he calls a few empty words, it is better than letting the team take this mentality to the court.
To really play like this, the second half will definitely crash.
Under the watch of all the team, Yang Yang slowly stood up.
Ibrahimovic, who was sitting next to him, was originally the tallest in the team, but at this moment, I don't know if it was because he was sitting that Yang Yang felt unusually tall.
Yang Yang got up from his seat, first glanced at his teammates around, then looked at Benitez, but he secretly made a decision, because he remembered what Zidane told him not long ago. The remarks.
If he wants to be the leader of the team, then he must show the courage that the leader should have and bravely express his own ideas.
"I think we need to make a change." Yang Yang said in a calm but affirmative tone.
When hearing this sentence, no one was surprised, because this is what they thought.
The question is not whether to change, but how to change?
Does Yang Yang have an idea?
Everyone looked forward to Yang Yang with expectation. Benitez and Yesterdam also looked at each other, and they were aware of the confusion in each other's eyes. Does Yang Yang have any good ideas?
...
In the world of professional football, there are generally two ways to become a head coach. One is academy. After training in system theory and having accumulated enough rich experience, this type of successful head coach includes Mourinho Ao, Benitez, Wenger, etc. are all head coaches who have a very mediocre career but a brilliant coaching experience.
There is also another way to play and to teach, from an excellent professional player to a coach. The most famous ones are Ferguson, Guardiola, Mancini, Capello and Ancelotti, etc. Rich professional experience and outstanding career, and then after a certain theoretical training, began to be the head coach.
Whether academicism is better or experienceism is better is a long-term controversial point, or it should be said that each has its own advantages. Academicism often believes that it is not reliable to command a team based on experience and intuition. There must be a systematic theory. Players only need to implement the techniques and tactics of the head coach on the field. The most typical is Benitez and Bielsa, both of whom use players as robots.
Empiricists often have extremely rich experience. They know what the players are thinking and how to communicate with the players. Even big names such as Guardiola can easily control the locker room superstars. When they emerged, they were able to personally In the end, teach the players how to play football.
And the top players tend to have a deeper understanding of football, which leads them to have some angles or even creative thinking in terms of the technical and tactical aspects of football games that the academic school does not have.
For example, Ancelotti put Pirlo back, Rijkaard and Guardiola created the Barcelona transmission control system and so on.
Whether it is academy or experience is good. This is a long-standing old question, but one thing is certain, that is, the understanding of football by top players, and the thinking of the game is definitely different from other people. of.
Does Yang Yang have any unique ideas now?
Everyone was watching him, including Benitez and Yesterdam.
...
"There is no perfect tactics in this world, and there can be no indestructible defense."
Yang Yang directly expressed his opinion and was nodded by everyone in the dressing room.
"We see Inter Milan's defense as a wall, it looks indestructible, but in fact, this wall is not without gaps, it is composed of four backs and three backs, between players and players , There will inevitably be gaps, and if there are gaps, there will be loopholes. "
This is a very basic thing. Yang Yang said it straightforwardly, and everyone understands it.
The reason why Inter Milan can be indestructible is because they are very tacit, and the execution is very strong. Players and players always try to fill each other's loopholes and gaps, maintaining a tight distance and keeping the defensive position meticulous.
This made Real Madrid unable to find an effective breakthrough and could not directly threaten the goal.
It should be said that what Yang Yang said is not a profound truth. Everyone present understands it, and some people even think that he is talking about meaningless nonsense and want to say a few words.
But at this time, Yang Yang really got to the point.
"All of us also know that the pulling of the offensive side will inevitably lead to the movement of the defending side, and as long as it moves, it will definitely reveal more gaps and flaws, so the boss just said, let us fight fast and transfer, through transfer To pull the opponent and force the defensive players to move to create flaws. "
"Then the question is coming, Inter Milan is obviously not afraid of our style of play in the first half, why?"
Everyone was a little disappointed when they heard this, they thought that Yang Yang was going to say something profound, and as a result ...
"It's very simple, because they have better control and preemption of space." Ramos said directly.
Others also nodded one after another. Inter Milan has done a good job in controlling and seizing space. It can even be said to be leak-proof, which makes it difficult for Real Madrid to create opportunities in front of their defense.
Yang Yang nodded, "Yes, but things are often two-sided. We can say that the first half cannot be worn because Inter Milan has better control of the space, but it can also be said that it is our pull and transfer Not enough. "
When everyone heard this, they were a little confused. Only Benitez and Harvey Alonso, a few two or three people, all showed their thoughts. Obviously, they understood Yang Yang's meaning.
"The ball will always be faster than people. As long as we move fast enough, as long as we move long enough, Inter Milan have to invest more to control the space. They may not even be able to completely cover them. "
There is a limit to manpower, which is limited by speed and physical fitness, so it is impossible for a team to completely cover all areas.
Why should Inter Milan shrink in the half, even in the 30m area?
It is because they can only guarantee that they cover so much.
But in fact, even within 30 meters, they can't guarantee that they can control all the space under any circumstances.
Yang Yang also said more and more excited, this is the first time he outlined the sidelines in his mind, elaborated in front of the head coach and teammates, he said a little chaotic, there may even be many people Can't keep up with his thinking, but it doesn't matter. What's important is that he wants to say what he wants to say.
Even excited, he went directly to the tactical board and took a pen to draw directly on it.
"When attacking in the frontcourt, the longest transfer is from one side to the other!"
