Chapter 552: ,tough battle

The warm-up soon ended before the game, and players from both sides returned to their locker rooms, waiting for the final arrangement of the head coach.
In the home team's locker room, Simone repeatedly instructed Atletico Madrid's players: "In the last game we had a 0-0 away game. The result was very good. We did not lose away. And today this game is in us. At home, I ask you to use your home advantage to win Manchester United in one fell swoop! "
"But you have to be careful not to lose the ball easily. After all, this is our home court. If Manchester United can easily get away goals, we will not play well."
At this time in the visiting team's locker room, Kintag was also cheering on the players.
"I don't want to say more about our tactics in this game. I have repeated them many times in the past few days. I believe you must be very clear. Our goal today is one-offense! As long as we can get away goals, we I have a lot of confidence to qualify for the Champions League semi-finals! "
"We have now lost our chance to defend the Premier League title. If we are eliminated from the Champions League again, then we will have no hope at all! Guys, come on! Win Atletico Calderon and go home with victory!"
After the fifteen-minute break, both players ran out of the locker room. The main players waited in the aisle to play, and the substitute players waited for opportunities on the bench.
On the bench of Manchester United, Gintag whispered to a player.
"Robin, if you can't start the situation, I will send you out and you are ready."
"Dear viewers, everyone, this is BTSport. I'm your old friend Trick. Today I will explain the game with my old partner Norrie."
"Today we will explain to you the second game of the quarter-finals of the Champions League-Manchester United away against Atletico Madrid."
"Manchester United is still familiar with the 4-4-2 formation: the goalkeeper is Alisson and De Gea is still recovering; the defending line is a combination of Smolin and Vidic with the central defender, and Alonso on the left and right sides With Valencia, Rafael was suspended for one match because he had a red card in the previous game; Canter and Lampard were in the midfield, Mahrez and De Braune left and right; the striker was The combination of Levan and Griezmann. The seven substitutes are: Van Dyke, Jones, Carrick, Ashley Young, Stones, Marshall and Van Persie. "
"Since De Gea was injured, Manchester United has always allowed Alisson to start. Although Manchester United's record is not good during this time, it is not Alisson's fault. He has performed very well. If it was not his brilliant performance, then Manchester United is in the league. There will be at least two or three defeats. "
"Besides that, there is a player on the Manchester United bench who is very impressive today-Van Persie is back from injury! At the 2014 World Cup, Van Persie was severely fouled by his opponent and suffered a broken leg. He has been injured until now. We all thought it was possible that Van Persie would retire directly, but he paid miraculously, and Jintaige put him on the bench! Is it possible that Van Persie will be playing today? Let us wait and see! "
"And Atletico has sent almost all of their main players. Whether their forward combination Manjukic and Torres can break Manchester United's goal is also a major point of this game."
"A referee's whistle, the game has begun!"
"Manchester United were very open at the beginning, they were aggressive and launched a fierce attack on Atletico's goal!"
"A long shot from Lampard's penalty area! The ball was saved by Atletico goalkeeper Obrak!"
"Obraq still maintains an excellent condition. The last time he retired at Old Trafford, Obraque contributed a lot!"
"Manchester United's left attacked! Mahrez's continuous breakthrough, Alonso's assist came up, cross!"
"Levan topped the ball! Slightly missed the beam! Manchester United missed a chance to score a goal, which is a shame! If this goal is scored, then Manchester United will hold an away goal!"
"Just five minutes into the game, Manchester United has a very threatening shot with two feet!"
Simone next to the visiting team coach couldn't sit still. He had thought that the team could grab the opening and strive for a goal, but Manchester United's offensive was not so fierce. So Simone hurried to the sidelines and shouted at his player to remind him: "Pay attention to the formation! Strengthen the defense! Don't let the opponent kick!"
Jintaige, next to the home coach, was very excited. He watched the team's offensive and commanded loudly on the sideline: "Just kick! Keep going!"
The next time, Manchester United played more and more fiercely. They seemed to lose the last game to Chelsea's accumulated bad spirit, and vented all their brains to the opponents in front of them. At the command of Atletico Simeon, Atletico organized their defense To prevent Manchester United from easily threatening the ball.
In this way, the rhythm of the game between the two sides is very intense ~ EbookFREE.me ~ The fans in the stands unknowingly, the game has been going on for 30 minutes.
Following the team's expedition to Madrid, the president of the "King of Devil" Association Cook is organizing fans to shout in an orderly manner, wanting to stand out from the sound of tens of thousands of home fans; and fat Rodney is anxious: "After playing for half an hour, why haven't you scored? Atletico is so tenacious!"
Cook frowned. "It's a tough battle today."
Not only are the fans anxious, but the Jintaige crowd on the visiting team's coaching bench is also anxious. Manchester United is now thundering and the rain is small, and it seems that the offensive is very fierce, but the threat of the ball is not much, which makes the Manchester United players on the field a little impatient. At this time, Jin Taige shouted players on the sidelines, especially Captain Vidic, to let him pay attention to the defensive formation, do not let Atletico attack.
Vidic has experienced hundreds of battles. This game was very focused. He had a rotation in the last game, so his physical condition is very good today. Under his leadership, the Manchester United defense line is impermeable and leak-proof. Atlético's two counterattacks returned without success.
Seeing this situation, Simeone, for the sake of security, kept the midfield players in a good lineup, even if counterattacked, do not press on the whole line, so as to avoid stealing chickens and losing rice, and then being counterattacked by the opponent will be troublesome.
The first half of this game was almost the same as the previous game. Manchester United attacked the entire line, Atletico Madrid had a solid defense, and neither side had much success. Forty-five minutes later, the first half was over and neither side was able to rewrite the score. The players from both teams returned to the locker room with a 0-0 score.
The head coaches of the two teams returned to the locker room with their tactical boards. Jintaige and Simone understood that there must be some changes in the second half, and each of them had plans in mind and planned to make tactical adjustments during the intermission ... ...
