1368 The Good Show

"All fans in front of the TV, welcome to San Siro Stadium!"

"This is the scene of the Champions League final. What I will bring to you is the final of the 2015-2016 European Champions League, two teams from Madrid, Spain, the peak showdown between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid."

"The players of both teams have already walked out of the court one after another under the leadership of England referee Clattenberg."

"This is the second time that Madrid's two giants have competed for the European crown in the past three years. It is also Real Madrid's three consecutive years to reach the Champions League final and won the Champions League championship in the first two years."

"What is more noteworthy is that in the past seven years, Real Madrid has reached the Champions League finals in a total of six times and won all six times, including the previous three consecutive championships, while the remaining one was stopped in the semi-finals, and Barcelona won the championship at that time."

"It can be said that this is a top giant with extremely rich experience in the Champions League final."

"This is the head coach of the two teams, shaking hands on the sidelines. Zidane and Simeone were both legendary celebrities of Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid. It is worth mentioning that now, the leading superstar Yang Yang of Real Madrid is Zidane's number one assistant, and he is the chief assistant coach of Real Madrid, making great contributions to Real Madrid's outstanding results this season."

"Zidane once won the Champions League for Real Madrid as a professional player. If he leads Real Madrid tonight, he will become the seventh person in the history of world football to win the Champions League. All the six before are legends in the world football world. Now Zidane is working hard to make himself the seventh."

"Simone is striving to become the first Argentine head coach in Argentina football history to win the Champions League championship. Argentine Cooper had led Valencia to the Champions League final twice, but unfortunately, he failed to win in the final twice. Interestingly, in the 2000 Champions League final, Cooper's Valencia lost to Real Madrid led by the firefighting coach Boske at the time."

"It depends on whether Simeone can break the fate of Argentina football and avenge the Champions League final two years ago."

"Now, let's look at the lineup of the two teams."

"Real Madrid's lineup has made some adjustments tonight, and Zidane seems to have adopted the 442 tactic."

"The goalkeeper is Navas, the defense is Marcelo, Xavi Martinez, Ramos and Carvajal, the midfield is Hazard, Casemiro, Modric and Di Maria, and the double strikers are Yang Yang and Suarez."

"This lineup is a bit surprising because the main midfielder Tony Cross did not sit on the bench and replaced by Di Maria, which is a noteworthy change."

"If any fans who have watched Real Madrid games this season must know that the Real Madrid team coached by Yang Yang and Zidane can be said to have inherited the advantages of Benitez and Ancelotti's era. The tactical style is varied and very balanced and comprehensive. They always adopt different styles of play based on different opponents and different tactical needs."

"I believe Real Madrid will still bring us some freshness tonight."

"Atlético Madrid's lineup is also four and four two."

"The goalkeeper is Oblak, the defense is Felipe, Godin, Savage and Juan Fran, the midfield is Cork, Augusto, Gabi and Saul, and the double strikers are Griezmann and Torres."

"What is worth noting about Atletico Madrid is that this is his first Champions League final, and Augusto, Coke and Saul are both Atletico Madrid youth training players who have performed very well this season. Saul scored a world wave in the semi-finals against Bayern Munich, making great contributions to Atletico Madrid's finals."

"Atlanta Madrid has another player worth noting, that is Carrasco. Simeone is very important to Carrasco. He played against Real Madrid before and performed well, but later he was hidden by Simeone several times and placed on the bench. He will perform well every time he plays on the court."

"I believe that if there is really a surprise player in Atletico Madrid tonight, it must be Carrasco. Let's wait and see when Simeone will arrange Carrasco to play, and how much role he can play."

“The race will begin soon.”

"Ramos and Gabi are guessing the side, and Atletico Madrid are the first to kick off."

"The atmosphere of the game on site is quite strong, and there are also celebrities in the stands. This is the finale of the European League this season. With all the leagues finished, this Champions League final is undoubtedly the focus battle that attracted the most attention of fans around the world before the start of the European Cup."

"I believe that the two teams tonight will bring us a wonderful football feast!"

…………

…………

With the referee's whistle, Atletico Madrid forward Torres quickly kicked the ball to Griezmann, who immediately passed it back and directly passed it to the midfield and backcourt to find captain Gabi.

The moment Yang Yang and Suarez sounded, they quickly shot towards Atletico Madrid's backcourt like two sharp arrows.

Suarez was heading towards Gabi at the first time. He rushed towards Atletico Madrid from the right direction, which forced Gabi to turn around and pass the ball directly to the right center back Savic.

Savage stopped the ball on the left side of the court, and Yang Yang rushed to him.

Atletico Madrid's right center back wanted to kick the ball directly and pass the ball to the frontcourt, but Yang Yang was already chasing him very close and directly raised his foot to block it.

The ball kicked at Yang Yang's feet and flew towards Atletico Madrid.

This immediately shocked Atletico Madrid players. Juan Fran and Savage both turned around and returned to defense at the same time, and Suarez's quick forward in the middle also scared Gabi and Godin.

But this time, the ball bounced out of bounds and became Atletico Madrid's outbound ball.

Although it was a surprise, Atletico Madrid was still a little surprised.

Real Madrid showed aggressive momentum at the beginning. Is this trying to strengthen the pressing and oppression in the midfield?

This is Atletico Madrid's specialty.

...

Juan Fran quickly threw the outbound ball and threw it directly through the midfield. Torres pulled to the side and pushed the ball to the middle.

Casemiro rushed to the position immediately and wanted to clear the ball with one kick, but Atletico's midfielder Cork directly kicked it, knocking Casemiro to the ground with one shot, and the Real Madrid fans booed.

The referee Clattenberg seriously warned Cork, obviously he was quite dissatisfied with Atletico Madrid's midfielder's foul. Next time, he would have to pay the cards.

This is also thanks to Cork's solemn lifting his foot up this time, and he didn't show his foot, so he could not see any intention of hurting people. Otherwise, it would be a warning.

Yang Yang ran back from the front, and after crossing the center line, he raised his right hand high.

After everyone saw his gesture, he didn't need to say anything more. Everyone knew what he meant.

Real Madrid quickly and quickly made a free kick. Xavi Martinez sent a long pass in the backcourt. Yang Yang headed the ball to the left. Hazard drove straight along the left side and went down to Atletico Madrid's bottom line and passed horizontally into the penalty area.

Savic got a very timely position this time. Before Suarez, he cleared the ball and his big foot out of the penalty area.

Failed to create a threat!

...

Atletico Madrid quickly changed its color, strengthening the pressing against Real Madrid in the midfield.

From the second minute, Atletico Madrid pushed the entire team, and even pushed the defense line across the center line and entered Real Madrid's half-court, especially Torres and Griezmann in front, who pressed against Real Madrid's defense line step by step.

In the third minute, Real Madrid was forced to the penalty area near the backcourt and it was difficult to get the ball. Marcelo made a mistake in passing the penalty area on the left. The ball was too slow and Torres rushed forward quickly. At the critical moment, Xavi Martinez directly cleared the ball with a big foot, but he was knocked to the ground by Torres who was running towards him.

Everyone was shocked and sweated!

If Torres snatched this ball, Real Madrid's goal would be in danger.

...

Although Real Madrid was the first to break into Atletico Madrid's penalty area at the beginning, Atletico Madrid suppressed Real Madrid on the court from the second minute.

Three tricks at the beginning, Atletico Madrid's high-level oppression and local pressing have always been their specialty. Real Madrid has been prepared for this and is not careless.

Especially after Marcelo made a mistake in passing, Yang Yang and Zidane also warned the players on and off the court.

Atletico Madrid attacked Real Madrid's left and obtained out-of-bounds balls in succession. The free throw point also advanced from the center line toward Real Madrid's penalty area, and in the fourth minute, he got an out-of-bounds ball on the left side of Real Madrid's penalty area.

Juan Fran quickly threw the outbound ball and passed it quickly to Griezmann, who flexibly got rid of Marcelo and passed it to the middle of the penalty area. Cork, who was inserted in the back row, was blocked by Casemiro in the middle and barely got a chance to kick, but failed to play the force and the ball was confiscated by Navas.

This is also the first shot in the game!

The two teams entered a fierce competition from the beginning, the game was very fast and the ball rights were switched back and forth.

It seems that Atletico Madrid has a certain advantage, and except for the fast attack at the beginning, Real Madrid basically defended in the halftime the rest of the time, and it is difficult to get another chance.

But this time, after Navas hugged the ball, he quickly ran to the right side of the penalty area, and quickly threw the ball to Kavajal.

Real Madrid's right back got the ball and took a big step forward.

Atletico Madrid returned to defense very quickly, and Cork was reluctant to leave. Carvajal could only pass the ball to Di Maria, who was close to the right line.

The Argentine got the ball, but had no chance to move forward, so she was forced to pass it across to Modric who ran over to receive it. She rushed forward quickly. Modric understood and passed the ball to his front, forming a two-pass one.

After Di Maria quickly caught up with the ball, she passed it forward again.

Yang Yang didn't know when he pulled to the right to pick up the ball. After stopping the ball with his back, he pushed the ball to the front of Di Maria.

The Argentine winger was very fast and rushed all the way. After getting the ball this time, he rushed directly to Felipe, and suddenly splashed in the right side of Atletico Madrid's penalty area, trying to get away with Felipe.

But at the moment when Di Maria cut inward, Gabi, who was in defense in time, decisively fouled and knocked Di Maria down on the right side.

Obviously, Atletico Madrid has learned from previous lessons. Since it cannot stop Di Maria, it will not give Real Madrid a direct free kick opportunity at the front of the penalty area if it is beaten to death.
