v4 Chapter 887： God helps Barcelona!

The vast majority of media, ball critics and fans will always only care about the big picture, but they always ignore the details.

In fact, it is often the details that determine the outcome of a football match.

For example, the first century derby last season, Yang Yang's direct free kick.

It was a very inconspicuous foul. If there is no direct free kick, it is estimated that no one will care about that foul at all, but it is such an inadvertent detail that led to Yang Yang getting a direct free kick The chance, in turn, led to Real Madrid's advanced goal, and then Barcelona consecutively conceded the ball into a defeat.

Conversely, if Yang Yang cannot score a free kick without that foul, can Real Madrid still win?

The answer will never be known, but Yang Yang guessed that it should be half to half.

In fact, Real Madrid's opening attack tactics had failed at the time, but Barcelona's attack had the advantage. With the near-attack situation at that time, who can guarantee that Real Madrid's weak defense will not make mistakes?

So, sometimes, football games are like this, it is made up of a lot of obscure details.

It's like tonight, when walking into the Camp Nou stadium, in the sky of boos, Yang Yang stepped on the turf of the Camp Nou stadium, the first reaction was slippery, then, he followed Beni on the sidelines Tes and Yesterdam shook their heads.

The Real Madrid coaching staff also came forward to try Nou Camp's turf, which was wet, which was very bad for Real Madrid.

The slippery turf will cause more errors on both sides, but at the same time it will make the short pass to the floor pass faster, which is very beneficial for Barcelona, ​​who is good at passing the ball.

For example, many fans are talking about it. When Mourinho coached Chelsea, in order to play Barcelona in the Champions League, deliberately spread sand at Stamford Bridge Stadium. Why?

Very simple, because the amount of sand increases, it will affect the ball speed, which will affect the success rate of short pass to the ground.

Of course, in that game Barcelona beat Chelsea 2-1, so this thing looks more like a joke, but in fact, in almost all football games, the home team will try their best to make a fuss.

If there is no such rain, Barcelona will also sprinkle water before the game, but the degree will not be as good as rain.

It's really that God is helping Barcelona!

Real Madrid entered training 20 minutes earlier than Barcelona.

The content of pre-match training is generally no big deal, basically some warm-up events.

An hour before the game, the two sides officially announced the big list.

Barcelona still adopts the four three three formation that they are good at.

The goalkeeper is Valdas, the back line is Abidal, Pique, Puyol and Alves, the midfield is behind Busquets, Iniesta and Xavi are in the middle, the frontcourt is Villa, The combination of Messi and Pedro.

This is a set without a front. Messi is centered and can either advance or retreat. This season in Barcelona has played a very good way. Messi ’s position is erratic and he can go down the middle of the road. Can also be pulled to the side, and the Argentine superstar's ability to run without the ball is also a must, quite a headache.

Of course, generally speaking, the use of a frontless team basically means that Barcelona still has to continue to play its own set of pass-and-control ground penetration. This is Barcelona's best.

Real Madrid also uses Benitez's best double back formation, the goalkeeper is Casillas, the back line is Maxwell, Pepe, Ramos and Maicon, and the double back is Mascherano. With Harvey Alonso, Kaka is in the center, and David Silva, Ibrahimovic and Robben are in the frontcourt.

One of the very big changes is that David Silva appeared in the lineup, which caused a lot of surprises inside Real Madrid, mainly because of what role David Silva will play on the court.

Benitez hopes he can return to a position closer to the midfield to provide the team with more opportunities to take and take the ball. In Valencia, he is playing the left front midfielder in this area. He is the best.

Real Madrid ’s intentions are also very clear. When counterattacking, he quickly passed through the midfield and went directly to Ibrahimovic to play Robben ’s speed. Kaka played the role of the second echelon of the attacker.

More importantly, David Silva's retracement can effectively protect Maxwell behind him and share the defensive pressure from Alves for him.

Replacing Marcelo with Maxwell, what Benitez wants, is naturally a more robust defense.

In fact, Benitez once wanted to use Aveloa to play on the left, but considering Messi was in the middle, Pedro was still good at running without the ball, and the degree of intimidation was far worse than kicking. Messi on the right, but Alves' role is getting bigger and bigger, almost becoming the most powerful starting point for Barcelona's attack.

Therefore, Benitez chose Maxwell with his left foot.

…………

…………

It's raining again!

Yang Yang was sitting on the bench, wearing a long-sleeved jacket, watching the two teams on the field, Barcelona still wearing their home jerseys, and Real Madrid was wearing a white jersey.

The referee of this game Iturald is a 43-year-old international referee with extensive experience in law enforcement.

After a whistle, the game officially started.

Boos and cheers intertwine, flooding the entire Camp Nou stadium.

Real Madrid took the lead and kicked back to the back.

Soon, Ramos of Real Madrid's backcourt directly sent a long pass and sent the ball to the frontcourt.

Ibrahimović grabbed the first goal and headed to the right.

Robben threw Abidal from the right and passed back to the middle. Kaka took a beautiful fake before receiving the ball. After tricking Busquets, he sent the ball back to Robben's feet.

The Dutch ran out of neutral and passed behind to find Ibrahimovic, but he was tripped over by Abidal.

Ibrahimovic failed to grab the ball from Puyol and Pique's left and right shots, but the referee whistle to signal Abidal foul, then the game went to the tenth second.

Abidal was warned that Real Madrid had a chance to set the ball on the right. After the quick insertion by Maicon, Ibrahimovic made the first shot of the game, but it was a bit outrageous. .

...

With the start of the game, Yang Yang is gradually observing the formation of platoons against the two sides.

Guardiola obviously also knows that Real Madrid will still be mainly defensive counterattacks tonight, so he decisively took the defensive front pressure and hoarded heavy soldiers in the midfield. The main battlefield of the two sides is still placed in the half of Real Madrid. piece.

Barcelona seems to be four, three, three, but in fact, Alves' position is very advanced, more like a full-back, or even a winger, which makes David Silva have to retreat to participate in defense. .

Yang Yang also began to understand Benitez ’s calculations. Although he could n’t make it, Di Maria was fast enough, but he was not as willing to force the oppression and retreat as David Silva, and David Silva Under pressure, he has a strong ability to take and take balls.

Busquets still serves as the core of the team's organization. Messi actively withdraws. Barcelona's ball control is basically based on these two people, with Harvey and Iniesta on both sides, forming a pass and control ball. phalanx.

When Messi retraces, Pedro on the right will take the initiative to move forward, directly suppressing Real Madrid's back line, facing Pepe and Maxwell, then Alves will definitely go forward and occupy Pedro The left winger area.

Real Madrid is clearly aware of this, Benitez let David Silva actively guard, otherwise, Alves can quickly cooperate with Pedro and Messi in this piece, creating an advantage in numbers and playing Neutral.

In order to curb Barcelona's attack on the right and right ribs, Real Madrid's defense also had to lean to his left, and Yang Yang noticed at this time that Villa's position has always been in the left rib area at the front of the penalty area. Waiting for opportunities.

Iniesta is behind, but also in this area.

Obviously, as long as the ball passes from the right to the left, the two can quickly form a match.

However, Real Madrid also left Maicon and Harvey Alonso on this side, plus Barcelona is more inclined to attack the ribs, but the left defender Abidal's wing offense is not good, and needs Robben is very fast, so defensive pressure is not great.

The pair of double midfielders of Mascherano and Xavi Alonso is reflected when Barcelona passes the ball. They will shift their position with the area where the ball is located to maximize Protect the defense line and strengthen the defense against the ribs.

In the second game last season, Real Madrid used a three-waist play, which had a very obvious defensive effect on the ribs.

After one and a half years of polishing and training, Real Madrid ’s regional mark-to-point defensive system has taken shape. Real Madrid ’s defense can effectively contain the space and not easily give opponents opportunities, regardless of how Barcelona transfers and cooperates and how to cross-transpose.

Barcelona seems to be in control of the ball, but in fact it has very few chances of shooting from the ground. Obviously, Real Madrid ’s oppression is very unsuitable, especially in the fifteenth minute, after Real Madrid broke the ball, it was handed over Maikong on the right.

Brazil's right-back defended the ball all the way forward and advanced to the front of the penalty area. He hit Pique with a volley, then Kaka volleyed with a goal and was saved by goalkeeper Valdes.

Barcelona's first foot shot occurred in the eighteenth minute. It was a corner kick. Pickley pressed Pepe to head the goal, but failed to make a threat and missed slightly.

Barcelona nearly 20 minutes ahead, the ball control rate is as high as 70%, Real Madrid is only about 30%, but the number of shots is three to one, Real Madrid's defense still looks more rigorous.

Benitez's training in the past year and a half, especially on the defensive end, has been quite successful.

Although Yang Yang was sitting on the sidelines, he was fortunate to witness the fighting power between the two top famous coaches in the world. He felt greatly benefited and admired at the same time.

Both teams have a strong fault tolerance rate. Barcelona relies on the team's strong pass and control ability and high pressure to suppress. Real Madrid relies on a team of players with a strict overall defense system.

And all this is based on a large-scale running.

This should be why Benitez said before the game that the players had to fight for their cramps after 70 minutes.
