Chapter 38： Continue to attack me!

Before the game, the whole world knew that Real Madrid needed to attack, and that Wenger would definitely set up targeted tactics for Real Madrid's attack, and even arranged traps to make the Galaxy battleship fall at Highbury Stadium.

Facts have proved that Wenger has indeed adopted a more balanced, even defensive lineup and tactics.

And Real Madrid did take the initiative to attack, and adopted an offensive tactic from the very beginning.

But no one would have thought that Real Madrid would be so determined to attack.

From the very beginning, the Galaxy battleship adopted a kind of running coverage that spared no effort to press and press Arsenal.

Despite their preparations, the Gunners still felt it was difficult to fight against the menacing Real Madrid, especially after Raul's close header, everyone was frightened into a cold sweat.

If it wasn't for Lehmann's hard save, Real Madrid would have equalized.

Real Madrid continued to hold down Arsenal, making it almost difficult for the Gunners' football to pass through the midline.

The entire team, from front to back, from Negredo to Raul to Beckham to other players, even Zidane, who is tall and has never run much, fought hard in this game. He can be seen everywhere in the three lines from the center to the right.

Where the ball is, Zidane will be there.

This gives people a feeling, don't they plan to play the full court?

You know, a football match lasts for 90 minutes. Now that you are so desperate, what will you do in the second half and the closing stage?

But Real Madrid seemed to have no scruples, and frantically devoted themselves to pressing and pressing, showing a determination to break the boat.

At first, everyone thought that it was almost enough to press for five minutes, but after five minutes, Real Madrid were still running and pressing.

After ten minutes, everyone found that Real Madrid still showed no sign of stopping, and Arsenal were still pressed at half-time, struggling to defend and resisting stubbornly.

Fifteen minutes after the game, Real Madrid had already begun to show some signs of unsustainability, but they still did not retreat.

From the beginning until now, Gao Shen has been standing on the line of the coach's command area, motionless.

He is the head coach and cannot play. This is the only way to let the players know that he is with them.

Negredo made a big stop in the frontcourt, and when he returned the ball in a hurry, he passed the ball directly to Cesc Fabregas, who quickly dribbled the ball forward and passed it to Henry who was dropping back.

Henry Yigao was daring. After he got the ball from the left rib, he quickly got rid of De La Reid's entanglement. Before Ramos stepped forward, he quickly sent a straight pass to the back of Ramos.

Ljungberg moved forward at the fastest speed, before Elguera, and stabbed the ball into Real Madrid's penalty area. He also accelerated to catch up, forming a beautiful single-handed shot.

In an instant, the entire Highbury Stadium was boiling.

This is Arsenal's first threatening counterattack in this game.

The previous few times, all of them were strangled by Real Madrid in their own half.

And this time, Elgra's interception was obviously a beat slower, and Ljungberg broke through directly.

The Swedes quickly chased after the ball. Casillas had a hard time making a decision on the ball and did not dare to attack rashly.

At this critical moment, Ramos, who had just pounced on Henry, chased back all the way at a very fast speed, grabbed the moment Ljungberg rushed into the penalty area, directly stuck his body against Ljungberg, and forced him. It was squeezed away, and then the whole person was blocked between Ljungberg and the ball.

The Swedish star lost his balance, fell directly into the penalty area of ​​Real Madrid, and pulled Ramos to the ground.

Casillas dropped the goal and grabbed the ball first.

Highbury Stadium becomes silent!

Is it a penalty kick?

All eyes were on the referee Rubers from Slovenia.

I saw Lubos waved to Ljungberg, who fell to the ground, indicating that this was not a foul.

Immediately, there was an overwhelming boos at Highbury Stadium.

…

Gao Shen was on the sidelines, gritted his teeth secretly.

Don't look at how he seemed relaxed just now, but in his heart, he was still very nervous.

If a penalty kick is awarded, then Real Madrid's game is really over.

Sometimes football matches are like this. Even if you are fully prepared, when you actually get to the court, it depends on the players' on-the-spot performance, and even the decision at the moment when the referee makes a penalty.

Therefore, what the head coach can do is to maximize the team's room for mistakes.

Glancing at the home team's coaching bench, Gao Shen found that Wenger was very dissatisfied with the penalty and was protesting at the fourth official, which instantly made him secretly feel a burst of pride.

Wenger's actions at this moment prove that he and Real Madrid are a threat to him, making him feel the pressure.

Is there any stronger proof than this?

"Elgra still lacks self-confidence." Assistant coach Maguida came to Gao Shen's side and sighed.

Gao Shen nodded. He was a little hesitant for the defense just now.

In fact, this is also normal. From Hierro's departure to the present, Real Madrid's defenders have changed one after another, even if it is world-class Samuel and Woodgate, or the next World Footballer Cana Varro, don't all play in Real Madrid and lose confidence?

Not to mention homegrown youth players like Pavin, Raul Bravo, Ruben and Mejia.

Apart from Ramos with a big heart, which central defender has been an exception in Real Madrid in recent years?

If it's just one and a half, this can be explained by individual reasons, but so many people, especially players like Woodgate, Samuel and Cannavaro who left the team, all showed world-class performances again. Proof that the problem lies with Real Madrid.

So, can Gao Shen blame Elgra for not being confident?

"How about we take a break?" Maquida suggested.

He is very worried. If he continues to press and oppress like this, Arsenal will not collapse, but Real Madrid will collapse first.

But Gao Shen shook his head resolutely, walked to the sideline resolutely, shouted the names of the players, motioned them to keep pressing forward and pressing Arsenal, and at the same time asked Ramos to pay attention to his back and keep a distance from Elgra, At the same time, it also allows Beckham to retrace some appropriately.

All of this shows a lofty attitude.

Keep pressing, keep pressing, keep attacking me!

…

The victory or defeat is in this battle!

This is what Gao Shen has instilled in the Real Madrid players in the past few days, the mobilization before the game, and the adjustment during the game.

Everyone felt his determination and will, that is, to break the Arsenal goal in one go.

If we can't score Arsenal's goal, let Arsenal score our goal!

Real Madrid has no way out!

After losing 0-1 at home in the first leg, it was all doomed.

But Gao Shen also made adjustments.

In fact, Negredo did not take advantage of Senderos.

Don't look at the psychological shadow of Senderos being abused by African Andy Lau, but the central defender's physical quality and ability are still very strong, so he was entrusted by Wenger at a young age.

Negredo doesn't take much advantage of Senderos, which makes Real Madrid's tactical fulcrum relatively weak in the frontcourt.

Gao Shen made adjustments to make Zidane move forward.

Zidane is a very special player.

Fans all over the world should have the impression of him as a classic midfielder, but this is a label.

If you analyze Zidane carefully, it is not difficult to find that he is really not suitable for playing the front midfielder, because his 1.86-meter body is very strong, almost like an iron tower. Among top players, his physical quality is quite rare. .

The technique under his feet is very delicate, especially his ability to use his body to hold the ball with his back and turn around to get rid of him is the world's top-class. The ball-handling, dribbling and passing are also world-class. More importantly, his running ability Not weak, the tempering in Juventus has cultivated his excellent defensive awareness.

Former French national team coach Jacquet has said more than once that Zidane's potential has not been fully tapped at Real Madrid.

Behind this sentence is to say that Real Madrid only played Zidane's attack, but did not play his running and defense.

Such a comprehensive player, it seems that he should be placed on the front line and play a more important role, right?

So why is Zidane an attacking midfielder, not a striker?

The problem was precisely with his body.

Tall and strong body, although African descent gives him amazing flexibility, but it will inevitably lead to his high center of gravity, slow movement frequency, coupled with the weak speed and explosive force, making Zidane unsuitable to appear on the front line.

This has to be said to be a fly in the ointment.

But a tyrannical body, top-notch post-holding and turning away, delicate ball-handling skills... All of these have created a superstar who hardly loses the ball after getting the ball at his peak.

Even though Zidane is no longer at his peak, his ability is still there.

Gao Shen is pushing him up now, just to let him play to his advantage and make up for the lack of Real Madrid's points in the frontcourt after Negredo was contained.

This style of play was also practiced in yesterday's targeted training.

It can be said that in this style of play, Zidane gained absolute freedom. UU Reading

…

Twenty minutes into the time, Arsenal began to play with Real Madrid, and they began to cross the center line frequently.

But Real Madrid is still struggling.

As soon as he got an opportunity, he immediately formed a siege in the frontcourt, trying to block Arsenal in the half.

Arsenal also caught a defensive omission from Real Madrid and formed a shot that missed the baseline.

In the 22nd minute of the game, Felipe grabbed the ball with Hleb on the right, winning a throw-in opportunity for Real Madrid. The Brazilian left-back quickly threw the ball into the pitch.

After Negredo stopped the ball in his chest, he unloaded the ball with his back, and quickly passed it back to Gravesson to reorganize the back line.

After several passes, the ball went to the right and was handed over to the receding Beckham.

After receiving the ball on the right, the England midfielder glanced ahead and quickly made another long diagonal pass.

The ball crossed most of the pitch and landed precisely on the left side of Arsenal's penalty area.

I saw that Zidane did not know when he had appeared in this position, and he took the ball out of the air with a light foot. Facing the double double team of Eboue and Colo Toure, he just took the ball out. , and quickly returned to the front of the big penalty area.

Raul quickly plugged in, and when he was about to make a shot, Gilberto Silva stabbed him diagonally, tripping him with the ball in front of the top of the arc.

The referee Lubers blew the whistle decisively and gave Gilberto Silva a yellow card.

Deafening boos rang out from the entire Highbury Stadium again.

Real Madrid won a free kick in a very good position.

Zidane and Beckham both stood at the penalty spot.
