"Chu's direct pass! Beautiful! penetrates Atletico Madrid's defense!! Ronaldo - he received the ball, single shot! single shot! gooooooooooooooool!!!"

"The ball is in! The ball is in! The 31st minute! Real Madrid finally broke the deadlock!!"

"Cristiano Ronaldo! He scored his ninth goal in the Cup of del Rey this season! He is the top scorer in the Cup of del Rey this year!"

"The huge gap in strength between the two sides has finally been reflected. No matter how exquisite Flores' arrangements before the game, or what impact Alonso's absence has brought to Real Madrid, the fact is that facing such a Real Madrid that almost played in a rotational lineup, Atletico Madrid is still behind with one goal!"

Compared with now, the commentator Xi Zhen just now can be regarded as "silent".

When the football flew into the goal, Flores slapped in anger. His man did a good job in defending Ozil, but he didn't expect Chu Zhongtian to solve the problem with a 30-meter long pass. In this way, it seemed that he had someone to guard Ozil as if he had made way for Chu Zhongtian to open up the way.

Ronaldo seemed very excited after scoring the goal. He ran to the sidelines and shouted.

Other Real Madrid players flocked to him, hugging him and celebrating the goal with him.

Real Madrid players were celebrating the goals, while Atletico Madrid players' league was not so good... They prepared for the final for two weeks and also filmed videos to cheer for the momentum. The tactics were also right. They did contain Ozil, but they didn't expect Chu Zhongtian to stand up again... They thought Alonso's absence would calm Chu Zhongtian for a while, but he was not affected by his midfield partner's absence. Instead, he became more active. In terms of defense, he gave Aguero a headache, and in terms of offense... He just assisted C. Ronaldo to score a goal.

※※※ Chu Zhongtian is very happy. This goal is not just about letting Real Madrid lead them with one goal. He believes that it will also shake Atletico Madrid's morale and fighting spirit.

After all, Atletico Madrid is behind Real Madrid in the history of fighting. They are unable to win in the last twenty-two league games. The past results may not affect people today, because those more than twenty games are not all of them. But every time the two sides fight, the media will ignorantly show the historical records of both sides, especially the record that makes them feel embarrassed, which is like constantly reminding them, "Since entering the new century, you have not defeated them!" "You have not won them in more than twenty league games!" "You are no longer the same level as Real Madrid!" "This may be the same city derby with the greatest difference in strength!"

These voices kept lingering in their ears, reminding them of the unbearable past.

In fact, it has invisibly laid a psychological shadow on them.

Chu Zhongtian is a Chinese, a Chinese player, and a Chinese fan, so he knows very well how powerful this media’s unintentional psychological hint is. There is a saying in China that is like this - "The fear of South Korea is called out by the media, and I was not afraid of it at first, and I asked them to say they are afraid of South Korea every day, but in the end I am really afraid of South Korea..."

This is what the so-called "three people become tigers".

Chu Zhongtian believes that this lead can make the next game easier, and Atletico Madrid will only be more impatient because they are eager to get rid of this hat that is unbeatable for Real Madrid in more than 20 games.

There are many opportunities to fight back then.

※※※ Chu Zhongtian’s idea is correct.

When the game started again, Atletico Madrid passed the football forward as soon as it kicked off, and did not patiently pass it back to organize it. They directly passed the football to the side and went to find Reyes.

Such an impatient offensive method was simply unthreatening, and Ramos intercepted the football before Reyes.

Not long afterwards, when Atletico Madrid got another offensive opportunity, Aguero chose to drive the ball forward by himself, ignoring other teammates who raised their hands to ask for the ball.

He rushed to Chu Zhongtian alone and was stopped.

Chu Zhongtian didn't eat his upper body at all, and he poked the football out directly.

Seeing this scene, the commentator shook his head and said, "If you continue playing like this, although there is still half a game before the end of the game, I think Atletico Madrid has already lost..."

Before the end of the first half, Atletico Madrid was in this state, constantly hastily ending the attacking opportunities they had finally obtained. They were eager to score goals, so they kept shooting, regardless of whether the situation was suitable for the shot.

Until the end of the first half, they were not able to equalize the score - this was taken for granted.

The Real Madrid players trotted all the way back to the locker room with a relaxed mood, while the Atletico Madrid players lowered their heads and walked back to the locker room in a little frustrated manner.

In the locker room, Flores got furious and scolded everyone because they played so badly. This bad thing is not that they were badly behind in the first half, but that they performed very badly after conceding the ball.

"It's like a piece of shit!" Flores swears. "What are you anxious about? We still have half a game, we are only one ball behind, which is not a natural barrier that cannot be crossed! Your impatientness has squandered all the hard-earned offensive opportunities! A team that wastes opportunities in the game will be retribution!"

After venting his anger, Flores calmed down: "Now, let's think about how to deal with them..."

※※※On the other side, Mourinho praised his players for their performance.

"I'm quite satisfied with your performance in the first half!"

In fact, he did not expect that the goal would still come from Chu Zhongtian's assist. His original plan was to let Ozil as the organizer be responsible for the last pass. Unexpectedly, Ozil's body could not resist completely under Atletico Madrid's targeted defensive strategy, but instead became a bait, allowing Chu Zhongtian to use it. Mourinho once again realized that Chu Zhongtian was a completely different player from other players. He was really playing football with his brain, and it was definitely not the kind of superficial playing football with his brain.

"Three days ago, I asked you, what are you looking forward to? Now, I think you already have the answer in your heart, right? So very good, just keep playing like this! Use the way you are best at defeating your opponent and winning our first championship trophy this season! Remember!" He raised his index finger, "Remember, this is the first, definitely not the last one!"

※※※In the second half, Atletico Madrid continued to strengthen its offensive, and at the same time they also strengthened their special care for Chu Zhongtian.

After the first half, Flores understood, but whether this Chinese man was in the front midfielder or in the back midfielder, whether he was in the front or not, whether he was in the double midfielder or single midfielder, this was a person that must not be underestimated.

The loss of the goal in the first half was because he underestimated Chu Zhongtian.

As soon as Chu Zhongtian got the ball in the second half, at least two Atletico Madrid players would appear around him, including Aguero and Fran, who were involved in his defense.

Basically around him is a circle of three to five Atletico Madrid players. This circle has two purposes: one is to cut off the connection between Chu Zhongtian and other Real Madrid players, and the other is to wait for an opportunity to cut off the ball and then fight back.

Since Real Madrid only has one midfielder, once Chu Zhongtian, the midfielder, loses the ball, the Atletico Madrid players can directly face Real Madrid's back line, which is just a layer of window paper from the goal.

Flores was quite proud of his adjustment, both defensive and offensive.

But if he used it to deal with Chu Zhongtian two seasons ago, it might be a little useful, but now... it will be difficult.

Don't think that using someone to surround him is just cutting off the contact.

Chu Zhongtian didn't need to observe the positional relationship between himself and his teammates, and these were already in his mind.

As long as his teammates can deliver the football to his feet, he can pass it out. It may be a bit difficult for Atletico Madrid to cut off their connection.

Moreover, Chu Zhongtian has a very strong running ability. He never stays in a fixed position. If he wants to intercept him, he has to run with him. First of all, not to mention whether the Atletico players participating in the encirclement have the physical strength. Even if they have the physical strength, they cannot do this because they will lose their position.

The football field is so big, the consequences of losing your position are very serious.

Of course, if he just surrounded him like this, he would not be able to deal with Chu Zhongtian. Flores knew this, so he asked someone to press it in close proximity to interfere with Chu Zhongtian. In short, he would never let him get the ball easily.

Pressing and surrounding, this is Flores' double insurance.

In addition, Ozil's defense has not been reduced, and it is still the same physical contact-style defense.

The people in front of him restrain Chu Zhongtian, while the people on the back line defended Ozil.

Flores believes that in this way, Real Madrid's attack will be no threat, and he can only rely on Di Maria or C. Ronal to cause trouble, so he is not afraid of this.

※※Murinho saw the changes in Atletico Madrid on the sidelines, and it was obvious that there were more Atletico Madrid players around Chu Zhongtian.

Real Madrid's offense has indeed been affected.

Although the second half had just begun, he made a decisive decision - substitution!

After five minutes of warm-up, Khedira replaced Adebayo and played as a midfielder, then asked C. Ronaldo to play center.

And within these five minutes, Real Madrid is temporarily on the defensive.

Although he encountered trouble in offense, Chu Zhongtian was still very comfortable in defense.

When Khdira came on the court, the score was still 1:0, and Real Madrid led the way.

As soon as Khedira came on the court, she pulled Chu Zhongtian to the front to teach her the opportunity.

"The head coach asked you to move forward a little and play against the forward and get closer to Ozil." Khdira said to Chu Zhongtian.

Chu Zhongtian looked down at Mourinho on the side of the coach's seat.

Mourinho had no expression on his face.

He knew what Mourinho meant.

It is now obvious that Flores uses both ends to intercept himself and Ozil separately. For him, he is a forward and midfielder, while for Ozil, he uses defenders and midfielders. Therefore, both sides can take care of him and will not lose sight of one or the other.

But what if he and Ozil get closer? The situation changes. First of all, he and Ozil strengthen their connection, and both can get support from each other and become more active. Secondly, after the position is close, Atletico Madrid's defense will be difficult to arrange - the forwards cannot retreat to the front of their penalty area to surround Chu Zhongtian. If they really do this, it's OK. At least Real Madrid's defense line will rest easy, so Chu Zhongtian will get more space and opportunities at that time, and Atletico Madrid's defense line will face such multiple-choice questions: Should we defend Chu Zhongtian or defend Ozil? These two are dangerous people. No matter who we defend, they will reduce their defense against another person.

In this way, Real Madrid's offense will open up again.

Although he was replaced with a defensive midfielder, the adjustment was not defense, but offense. Chu Zhongtian felt that such substitutions were much more sophisticated than those who replaced the forward in order to strengthen the attack and the defender in order to strengthen the defense.

It can strengthen defense and attack. There are only three substitutions in formal football matches. Try to use each substitution to do more things. If a substitution opportunity can complete several tasks at the same time, it is a clever and effective substitution.

※※※Flores did not know the conversation between Khedira and Chu Zhongtian. He only saw Khedira appearing on the court and felt that Mourinho was strengthening his defense and supporting Chu Zhongtian's substitution.

But after the game started again, he found that this was not the case.

Chu Zhongtian did not continue to stay in the position of the back midfielder, so he ran forward, positioning the premise, and Ozil's position retreated a little.

One person went forward and one person came back, and the two people moved closer.

And what about Khedira? Be his engineer behind.

It turned out that it was not Chu Zhongtian and Khedira's partner, but Chu Zhongtian and Ozil!

Khdira, Chu Zhongtian and Ozil formed a central axis.

How can his players stop Chu Zhongtian and Ozil now? Let Aguero and Fran withdraw and continue to form an encirclement of Chu Zhongtian?

Don't joke! How can you attack if you do this?

You can only rely on existing personnel to defend, who can you guard against?

Flores suddenly raised his head and hurt.

※※※Atlético Madrid found that they could not continue to attack because they had to make sure they would not continue to concede the ball.

If you fall behind 0:2, this game will be even more difficult.

Chu Zhongtian and Ozil are very active now.

After the two of them got closer, even if they were just working together, it would be enough to make Atletico Madrid feel a headache.

"Chu's ball... He passed it to Ozil, and Ozil quickly passed the ball back to him! Two passes and one hit the wall to cooperate!"

"After attracting three opponent's defensive players, Ozil suddenly distributed the football to Chu! Chu's long shot - so dangerous! It's off..."

"Uyifalusi knocked Ozil away, and he poked the ball out... But the football fell to Chu's feet, and Real Madrid started to control the ball again..."

... These can explain the situation very well.
To be continued...
