Once, Ferguson commented on Da Inzaghi, saying that he was a player born on the offside line.

It means to describe the Italian striker's outstanding ability to run without the ball.

In recent years, with the aging of Da Inzaji, all media reporters and fans often think of Yang Yang when evaluating the off-ball runs of active players.

Many people even believe that Yang Yang's ability to run without the ball is his magic weapon for scoring continuously.

Yang Yang also has a very deep understanding of this because he knows that for an offensive player, running without the ball is crucial, and it can even be said to be the key to the success or failure of a team's offense.

It's like this opening of the Champions League final.

When the ball was in Valdes' hands and Yang Yang retreated, he was facing Barcelona's goal. Not only did he pay close attention to Valdes' movements with his eyes, but he was also observing every move around him with the God's vision in the super training ground.

He was the first to judge that Valdes would throw the ball with his hand to look for Alves, so he rushed towards Alves immediately.

Yang Yang pounced very quickly, and Alves retreated deeply at that time, so Yang Yang concluded that Alves had only two options, either to kick forward with big feet, but this might lose the ball, or to pass the goalkeeper Valdes back.

To a certain extent, Yang Yang hoped that he would send it back, so he deliberately kept one move.

The Brazilian right-back really chose to pass the goalkeeper back because this is the Barcelona football philosophy and he will never hand over the ball easily.

When he saw Alves pass the goalkeeper back, Yang Yang had just rushed to the corner of the penalty area and immediately changed direction, returned to the penalty area, and headed straight to Valdes. Because such a return pass was impossible for Valdes to catch it with his hands.

And as long as you stop the ball with your feet, there will definitely be a chance.

Ibrahimovic knew Yang Yang's thoughts very well, so he immediately put pressure on the two central defenders of Barcelona.

Valdes faced the back pass, and there was also a Yang Yang who rushed over quickly. He had almost no time to think. His first reaction was to pass the ball out to give it the closest to him. At the same time, he should be considered the safest player, Pique.

As soon as Pique received the ball, Ibrahimovic entangled him, which made Barcelona central defender have no extra time to think about it. In addition, the Swedish center forward was forcing him from behind, forcing him to pass in the direction in front of him, that is, on the right.

So, Pique passed it back to Alves on the right without thinking, but Alves was still thinking about supporting Valdes, and the position was still far behind. Pique passed it to him. There was nothing wrong with this, but no one could have thought that Marcelo would suddenly come out from the slanting stalker.

...

When Yang Yang forced Valdes to pass the ball to Pique, he ran back quickly.

Because he wants to put himself in a position that is not offside.

This has become his instinct as an offensive player.

No matter how good his position is or how favorable the situation on the court, as long as you are offside, everything will be useless, and even if you score the goal, it will still be blown away.

Yang Yang retreated to a position that was even further back than Alves, so that he would not be offside. At this moment, Marcelo intercepted the ball in the middle and quickly passed it back into the penalty area before Alves approached.

With his back to the attack direction, Yang Yang was startled by the sudden pass. When he realized that the ball had already arrived in front of him. As soon as he stopped, Alves and Pique had already rushed towards him and attacked left and right.

Yang Yang had no time to think about it at all. He immediately determined that he had no chance to face the goal, so he chose to take a step outside the penalty area, quickly output the ball, and passed it back to Kaka outside.

Brazil's front midfielder stopped the ball, and Busquets appeared in front of him immediately.

Kaka made a move and wanted to kick the ball directly, so he tricked Busquets into blocking it sideways. Kaka suddenly took a step to the right and passed it to the penalty area.

In the penalty area, Ibrahimovic blocked Puyor with his body.

The Barcelona captain was blocked by the Swedish center and could not resist at all, but he was not a good-for-nothing lamp. He held back tightly and refused to retreat, leaving the Swedish center without any chance to play, so he could only use his head to grab the ball.

It is a bit far away from the goal, and there is little chance of heading the ball, and Pique has already forced it over. If Ibrahimovic wants to stop the ball with his head, there is basically no possibility of creating a threat.

But the Swedish center still suppressed Puyol tightly, not giving the opponent a chance to resist. Facing the incoming ball, he headed the ball and directly pushed the ball to the left of the penalty spot.

Yang Yang ran out of the gap here, and Pique ran to attack Ibrahimovic. Alves behind him was approaching, and he could get a chance, but Ibrahimovic's header was relatively high. His best choice was to stop first and then kick, but in this way, he would be blocked by Pique and Alves.

In the face of a fleeting opportunity, Yang Yang suddenly had a flash of inspiration and ran to the position. After standing on his left foot, he saw the coming of the ball. He turned around, flew up with his right foot, and shot directly sideways.

At that moment, Yang Yang could clearly feel the feeling of pulling the football in the air with his right foot in the back of his right foot. It was very stable, exactly the same as he had expected, and the football flew to the upper right corner of the goal at an extremely fast speed.

Valdes hurriedly wanted to block the near corner, but missed the far corner. Yang Yang turned around and volleyed in the air, but deliberately hit the far corner.

The ball hit Barcelona's goal without any obstacles.

One to zero!

...

"goallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll!!!!"

"Just three minutes into the game, Real Madrid took the lead in breaking Barcelona's goal!"

"From Yang Yang, he turned around and volleyed in the air!"

"Oh my God, this is Real Madrid's second shot in this game. Yang Yang made an amazing volley."

"This is the superstar! This is Yang Yang!"

"At the critical moment, Yang Yang was able to seize the opportunity created by his teammates and hit it with one blow!"

...

In order to make this volley, Yang Yang's whole body fell backwards. After the shot was made, he almost fell to the ground. However, he stood firm as soon as possible and saw the ball entering the net, he turned around and rushed out of the court and ran wildly.

The entire Wembley Stadium burst into overwhelming cheers and exclamations.

The cheers came from Real Madrid fans, while the exclamation came from Barcelona fans.

No one expected that the goal of this game would come so quickly and suddenly.

The game has just begun, and even Barcelona's decent attack has not been organized yet, and Real Madrid scored a goal.

Yang Yang quickly rushed to the bottom of the stands where Real Madrid fans were, slid excitedly and rushed to the camera on the sidelines.

On the big screen of the stadium, Yang Yang laughed and celebrated the goal on all the TVs around the world watching the game live. Then he was seen being knocked to the ground by Real Madrid teammates who rushed out.

Even Casillas in front of the goal jumped up quickly, slapped the crossbar of the goal, and kept shouting.

...

"It was a really, really unexpected goal."

"It is not difficult to see from the slow-motion replay that Yang Yang's running position is very smart and did not put himself in an offside position. The last volley was also very beautiful, and it was also very sudden. The Barcelona players didn't even have time to react, and Valdes even watched the football enter the net."

"This is the combat power that superstars burst out at critical moments. They are able to seize some inconspicuous opportunities and turn them into goals."

"The game has just begun, and Barcelona still has a chance, but it is behind at the beginning. This is obviously a very unfavorable thing, and it also hurts morale a lot. I hope Guardiola and his team can adjust as soon as possible."

…………

…………

Guardiola stood on the sidelines in a daze, his ears filled with cheers, and his eyes saw the stupid Barcelona players and the Real Madrid players running wildly throughout the game. He was a little overwhelmed.

Is this a goal conceding?

Barcelona had not even organized an offensive opportunity, but Real Madrid broke the goal.

Guardiola knew very well that this was Real Madrid's attack after the opening game, and it caught Barcelona off guard.

Whether it is Yang Yang's pressing step by step, Ibrahimovic's suppression of the central defender, or Kaka's back insertion, these are all offensive routines that Real Madrid deliberately arranged before the game, and are all targeting Barcelona's weaknesses and shortcomings.

But the most critical factor is Yang Yang.

In the situation just now, the most likely thing that would be offside was, but Yang Yang not only did not offside, but also ran out of opportunities.

This is the gap and it is also a reflection of Yang Yang's strength.

"Three midfielders, starting the game, this fat man's wishful thinking starts." Biranova said angrily.

Benitez's tactics made Barcelona feel uncomfortable and disgusting, but there was nothing disgraceful. At best, he could only be said to be conservative. Now, Yang Yang's goal has undoubtedly further boosted Real Madrid's confidence.

Can Barcelona break through Real Madrid's three-middle defense system?

In fact, Barcelona now has few bargaining chips that can change the situation on the field, especially when Real Madrid retreats across the board.

This is why Barcelona has not grabbed a single point in the past two seasons and ended with five consecutive losses. In the final analysis, Barcelona cannot find a way to break through Benitez's defensive formation.

Not only Barcelona, ​​but looking at European football, no team has ever truly broken through Real Madrid's defense.

Guardiola was very dissatisfied with Benitez's tactical style and Real Madrid's defense, because these were contrary to the football philosophy he had accepted since childhood, but now, he had to admit that he really couldn't come up with an effective way to break through the opponent's defense.

So, he could only wait.

Waiting for Barcelona players to have a flash of inspiration on the court, waiting for Real Madrid players to make mistakes.

This made the Barcelona coach feel a sense of weakness.
