956 Threat from Real Madrid

The game started again, but Real Madrid seemed to be more morale and directly launched a pressing force against Barcelona in the middle and frontcourt, caught Barcelona off guard and soon robbed the ball again.

The second minute, David Silva passed to the left side of the 30-meter area and looked for Yang Yang.

Yang Yang pulled to the open space on the side and stopped the ball, facing Alves who came to defend him. After a bicycle was fake, he made a move and tried to cut in. He tricked the Brazilian right defender to block it and suddenly dunked over and rushed to the bottom line as fast as possible.

After breaking through a gap, Yang Yang quickly made a pass into the penalty area with his left foot.

Ibrahimovic followed up and headed the ball from close range, but was supported by goalkeeper Valdes with both hands and blocked the crossbar.

Although it failed to score, Real Madrid's offense still threatened.

Ibrahimovic gave Yang Yang a thumbs up, obviously very satisfied with Yang Yang's pass.

...

The first corner kick in the game failed to create a threat, and Barcelona quickly counterattacked and rushed directly to Real Madrid's hinterland.

Real Madrid retreated at full speed. When Marcelo faced Sanchez, he cooperated with Pepe, and stole the ball and quickly handed it to Xavi Alonso.

As soon as the Spanish midfielder stopped the ball, he turned around and passed it with a long diagonal pass, accurately sending it to the left side behind Barcelona's defense line.

Yang Yang and Alves competed with speed, and they rushed towards the ball at the same time.

During the sprint, Alves pulled Yang Yang's jersey several times and tried to stop him, but he couldn't stop him.

Seeing that the ball was about to go out of bounds, Yang Yang took the lead and hooked the ball back into the line with his left foot. He then snatched Alves and gently dribbled towards the bottom line.

The ball was extremely fast, even if you just took a walk, you almost got the ball out of the bottom line.

Alves tried to block Yang Yang on the left, and it would be best to let the ball go directly out of the baseline and turn it into Barcelona's goal.

But Yang Yang seized the initiative everywhere, first he made a fake move to make a pass directly, tricking Alves into blocking the ball, but in fact he suddenly dunked the ball back from the front of the bottom line.

When the Brazilian right back raised his foot, the ball was passed from Alves' crotch, forming a crotch penetration.

The Brazilian right defender turned around and pulled hard, pulling Yang Yang down directly from the left side of the penalty area.

The referee blew a whistle and signaled for a free kick, but did not give a card.

Yang Yang and Real Madrid players were not very satisfied with this penalty, because if Alves had not defeated Yang Yang at that time, he would have the ability to directly dribble into the penalty area. At this time, there is a high possibility that Real Madrid will score another goal.

But on the court, the referee is God. Since he doesn't think there is such a possibility, no one can tell.

...

In less than a minute, Real Madrid made a comeback again.

He sent it to Yang Yang's feet on the left side again, but this time Marcelo's forward insertion was even stronger, and he directly inserted from the left rib to the left side of the penalty area. After attracting Alves' attention, Yang Yang decisively passed the ball to the front of the penalty area.

Marcelo stopped the ball and turned around, made a powerful shot with his left foot, and slightly rubbed the post and went out of the baseline.

All the Barcelona players were in a cold sweat. Even Guardiola on the sidelines jumped up, walked to the sidelines in anger, shouted at the players on the field, signaling them to return to defense in time and block Marcelo.

"He inserted it too quickly and suddenly after this time, and it was too determined." Biranova shook her head and sighed.

This is indeed a very surprising move, because in the Benitez era, although Marcelo would also have forward insertion, the strength was not so strong, especially when Real Madrid adopted the tactical tactic of double midfielders, the two full-backs were still restricted from forward insertion, in order to ensure the stability of the defense line.

But now, Aveloa on the right is not good at attacking, but he often crosses the center line. Marcelo on the left is directly pressed to the front of Barcelona's penalty area this time and almost broke into the penalty area.

This strength can be said to be unprecedented, and it also surprised everyone in Barcelona.

Could it be that Ancelotti is really determined to play offensive football?

"This is a kind of suppression." Guardiola saw it more clearly.

Biranova soon understood, "What do you mean is to use attack instead of defense, and use left off attack to suppress our right?"

Guardiola nodded, it was indeed the case, otherwise, it would not be explained why Yang Yang was so active after the opening, and Real Madrid would directly hit the left side every time they counterattacked.

"Marcelo is so pressing up, aren't you afraid of our counterattack?" Biranova asked in confusion.

Guardiola shook his head, it was too simple for his assistant to consider the problem.

The premise of counterattack is to be able to grab the ball first, but when Real Madrid attacked the left side, Yang Yang, David Silva and Marcelo not only had an advantage in number, but also the three players had excellent skills at the feet. Yang Yang was even more famous for his focus. As long as he lost the ball, he would immediately go to counterattack and delay Barcelona's counterattack.

Even if Barcelona really makes a quick counterattack, there is still a side of Real Madrid, Xavi Alonso and Xavi Martinez, who dragged it to the end. As long as the counterattack line is compressed on the side, they can only cross it, and Pepe and Ramos in the middle will limit Messi.

Of course, this is also a kind of adventure, and what you bet on is the players' game investment and tactical execution.

At first glance, the tactics of Ancelotti and Benitez are a bit like a cross-border relationship, and they seem to be similar, but the Italians' offensive investment is greater, the requirements for passing and receiving balls are higher, and the tactical coordination routines are richer.

But these are all laymen. Guardiola clearly sees that there are essential differences between the two head coaches.

Ancelotti believes in the players, and Benitez believes in the system.

Benitez believes that with a strict system as the core, the best situation is that the players become robots and unswervingly implement his tactical requirements, so that he can win every game.

Of course, Ancelotti also attaches importance to the system, but he attaches more importance to people, so he is willing to adjust his tactical system for the sake of the players, because he believes that players are the protagonists of a team and a game, and should not be the tactical system.

From Benitez's perspective, it can bring integrity to the team, but it will inevitably limit the players' personal performance, just like Yang Yang's continuous individual singles after the opening game, which is rare during Benitez's coaching period.

To a certain extent, Benitez is conservative and imprisons the players' imagination and on-the-spot performance.

Ancelotti is more modest and wants to show the players' personal performance and creativity based on the overall stability of the team.

Therefore, these two coaches are essentially a world of difference.

Ancelotti looks more like a Spanish coach influenced by Italian football, while Benitez is more like a stereotypical Italian coach.

This is very interesting.

Guardiola himself was also influenced by Italian football and was guided by the madman Bielsa, so to some extent, he did not like Benítez, and he admired Ancelotti more.

But in this game, he suddenly felt disgusted and disliked Ancelotti.

Because Real Madrid put him under threat.

Just when Guardiola was wary, Real Madrid on the court once again made offensive cooperation.

...

Marcelo sprinted forward quickly along the left road.

Xavi Alonso sent the ball accurately to his front, allowing the Brazilian left back to catch up with the ball, and then took a big step forward without slowing down at all. He rushed across the center line and rushed directly to Barcelona's 30-meter area.

David Silva came to pick up the ball, and after receiving Marcelo's pass, he quickly knocked back, forming a two-pass and one-strike-to-wall cooperation.

Yang Yang has given up the entire left road and appeared on the left side of the front of the penalty area. This is the area he is best at and most confident. It is nicknamed by the media and fans as the Yangyang area.

After Marcelo caught up with David Silva's knockback, he wanted to use his speed to forcibly break through Alves' defense, but the Brazilian right back was also very flexible and fast, so he didn't give him such a chance.

On the left side of the penalty area, Marcelo suddenly stopped with an emergency and passed the ball across Yang Yang's feet with his left foot.

Since Barcelona's defensive attention was pulled away by Marcelo, Yang Yang deliberately ran to the unguarded area. So when he received the ball, he deliberately stopped with his right foot, and he quickly turned around, and after taking a step forward, he quickly shot a volley with his right foot.

The ball quickly flew out from Yang Yang's right foot like a shell, flew through the middle of Pique and Abidal who were trying to block it sideways, and hung directly at the upper right corner of the goal!

"World Wave!!!"

"God, it's only eleven minutes now!"

"Real Madrid once again broke Barcelona's goal in the 11th minute of the first half!"

"This is simply incredible!"

"Yang Yang was so active after the opening. He scored twice and helped Real Madrid take the lead 2-0!"

"After the start of this game, Real Madrid's offense was very sharp. Barcelona failed to create a threatening offensive. Instead, Real Madrid repeatedly broke through the goal and threatened the penalty area several times."

"This is simply unbelievable. Judging from the performance of the first ten minutes, Real Madrid has completely gained an advantage on the field. Even Barcelona's most proud pass and ball control, Real Madrid has taken an overwhelming lead."

...

Yang Yang was so excited that he rushed out of the stadium. Amid the cheers of Real Madrid fans, he rushed directly to the sidelines, slid to the front of the live broadcast camera, and kissed the live broadcast camera vigorously.

On the court, except goalkeeper Casillas, all Real Madrid players rushed to the sidelines frantically, surrounded Yang Yang and celebrated this wonderful goal with him.

From stopping the ball to jumping into a dead corner, this is a real world wave.

Yang Yang's condition in this game was indeed very good, which everyone had expected before, because he has always been the hardest-working player in Real Madrid.
