Chapter 1318 A good show

"Get Real Madrid's starting lineup."

In the Bernabéu away locker room, Barcelona assistant coach Robert Moreno grabbed a freshly released starting lineup list and walked into Barcelona's coach rest area. All the coaches, including coach Enrique, immediately watched over.

"The goalkeeper is Courtois, the defense is Marcelo, Javi Martinez, Ramos and Danilo, the midfield is Toni Kroos, Casemiro and Modric, and the frontcourt is Eden Hazard, Suarez and Yang Yang."

After Robert Moreno finished reading Real Madrid's starting list, the Barcelona coaching staff also fell into contemplation.

Including Enrique, everyone is guessing about the thoughts of Zidane and Yang Yang in this battle.

Four three three against four three three, what are they going to do tonight?
But it is not difficult to see from this starting lineup list that Yang Yang and Zidane's ideas are still traceable.

"Danilo did not play two national team games. Vermaelen, Varane and Ramos all played two games, but it seems that Ramos is in better condition. Marcelo has been recovering from injuries in Madrid recently."

"In the midfield, Mascherano was replaced by Casemiro. The latter also recharged his batteries. Kroos and Modric started. David Silva and James Rodriguez were put on the bench. Di Maria in the frontcourt did not start. It is not difficult to see that Yang Yang and Zidane are also very sophisticated in their use of troops."

The more critical the moment is, the more stability is required.

Although adventure and surprise soldiers can catch people by surprise and achieve miraculous effects, they are often very risky. It is okay to use them once in a while, but they will not work if used frequently.

Often walking by the river, how can there not be wet shoes?
Always blindly use odds, and sooner or later there will be times when the ship capsizes from the gutter, so Yang Yang and Zidane have always used troops relatively steadily.

Real Madrid has an advantage in strength, and the steady use of troops is in line with Real Madrid's current situation.

Of course, many media and fans will accuse them of being conservative at critical moments, and this is for laymen.

There is no name in the finals, but no one will take risks easily in any crucial decisive battle.

"What do you think?" Enrique looked at his assistant Robert Moreno.

This assistant is Luis Enrique's right-hand man. He has followed him for many years. Although he has been behind the scenes, he is a leader in Spain in terms of scouting, data analysis, video research, and intelligence collection.

"From the point of view of the formation, it is still relatively stable. This is not surprising. It is estimated that they will not take risks easily, because they should be a little unpredictable. Whether we will play Messi or not, that's why we did it."

Whether to play Messi, not to mention Real Madrid, even Barcelona, ​​and even Messi himself didn't know until he came to Madrid in the morning, because the Barcelona coaching staff wanted to observe Messi's state.

And everyone knows that with or without Messi, Barcelona play differently.

"I think we should still stick to the original style of play, let Sergi Roberto play the right winger, assist Alves and Rakitic to contain Real Madrid's left, and from the starting lineup we can see that Marcelo and Hazard are both starting."

All the teams that have played against Real Madrid are full of fear of Real Madrid's wings.

There are Marcelo and Hazard on the left, and Carvajal and Di Maria on the right. This kind of wing combination must be dealt with carefully by any team, and a mistake may be sieved at any time.

And tonight, Di Maria did not start because of his long journey and two full matches in the national team, but both Yang Yang and Suarez may appear on the right, and Danilo's offensive ability is also very strong.

Of course, Barcelona's left side is also unambiguous. The left side attack composed of Neymar, Alba and Iniesta is enough to penetrate any defense line in the world. This will be the most reliable offensive line for Barcelona tonight.

Sergi Roberto replaced Messi in the starting lineup for the purpose of defense, Rakitic's starting lineup was to stabilize the midfield, and Neymar and Alba on the left were the team's offensive channels.

"Neymar, Iniesta and Cristiano Ronaldo are all top left-sided players in the world. As long as the ball reaches our left, with our personal ability on the left, we can completely tear apart Real Madrid's defense."

Moreno analyzed the current situation in Barcelona, ​​"Unlike in the past, our left-wing offensive channel has been formed, and the players are also very understanding with each other. I believe that tonight, our left-wing is capable of breaking through Real Madrid's right-wing defense."

Enrique frowned, but kept nodding to express his approval of Moreno's analysis.

There are [-] players in the starting lineup, who will be selected and who will not be selected. This has been carefully considered by the coaching staff.

If Messi can play, then Barcelona will adopt another style of play, but now that Messi can't play, Barcelona needs Iniesta and Busquets to pass and control the ball.

In the past, Barcelona had the golden iron triangle in the midfield, but everyone focused on Xavi and Iniesta. However, as everyone knows, Guardiola abandoned Yaya Touré and chose Busquets who had just debuted.

More importantly, although Busquets' defense is not very good, he has a very special ability, or it comes from the inheritance of Barcelona's traditional fourth position. He can make Barcelona's entire system run more smoothly and smoothly.

It can be said that after seeing the starting lineup of Real Madrid and after some analysis, Enrique can basically confirm that this is a continuation of the competition between Barcelona and Real Madrid in the past few years.

According to the old script for many years, Barcelona should control the ball, and Real Madrid patiently planned the defensive counterattack.

But tonight, Enrique made an impromptu revision of the script, he made an adjustment because his most important player, Messi, did not start, but will play in the second half.

This is not his trump card, but his double insurance!
"Okay, everyone, get ready to play!" Luis Enrique clapped his hands vigorously, encouraging his assistants.

"According to the script we wrote before, perform a good show at the Bernabéu tonight and kill them!"

…………

…………

At the beginning of the game, Barcelona took the lead in taking advantage of the serve, seized the opportunity and controlled the ball.

Real Madrid showed more patience, mainly deploying their defenses in the center line.

After a few opening attempts, the game became intense, and Barcelona began to play their own intentions and threats, especially on the left side of Barcelona.

In the 7th minute, Iniesta had just dribbled the ball across the center line. Modric wanted to come over to intercept him immediately, but the Barcelona midfielder reacted quickly and directly kicked a pass and sent the ball to the left.

Alba quickly plugged in, and continued to move forward without slowing down after stopping the ball.

Neymar and Cristiano Ronaldo were both in the penalty area, and the two went forward quickly one after the other.

Danilo went up for the first time, but Alba suddenly dunked the ball inside. After taking a step inside with the ball, he suddenly sent a diagonal pass and went directly to the goal.

Cristiano Ronaldo sprinted forward quickly, throwing Ramos away, and when he was about to catch up with the ball, Courtois suddenly abandoned the goal and the tall and long-handed Belgian goalkeeper fell to the ground first and saved the ball.

Barcelona missed an opportunity to attack and failed to pose a threat.

……

Enrique was very satisfied with the player's attack and applauded vigorously on the sidelines.

"Good job! That's the way to kick it!"

"Left, left, left, pay more attention!"

"You can put more pressure on them!"

Soon, in another attack on the left side planned by Barcelona, ​​Modric returned all the way to the penalty area before successfully intercepting the pass to Iniesta, but the attack planned afterwards failed to create a threat.

But Enrique still reminded the players on the sidelines to control the ball, control the game, and continue to resolutely play on the left.

In the 10th minute, goalkeeper Bravo sent a goal kick and it fell to the frontcourt.

When Cristiano Ronaldo was competing with Real Madrid player Ramos, he suppressed Ramos, causing Ramos to lose his balance, but neither of them grabbed the ball. Instead, Neymar, who ran all the way from the left, caught up first.

After Neymar got the ball, he quickly dribbled the ball along the right side of the penalty area to the bottom line. Danilo followed from the left all the way, closely marking and entangled Neymar, while Xavi Martinez quickly blocked Cristiano Ronaldo.

In the one-on-one contest, Neymar relied on his tyrannical personal ability to forcibly break through Danilo and cross the bottom to the goal. Under the interference of Xavi Martinez, Cristiano Ronaldo grabbed a point in front of the goal and wanted to hit the far corner, but slipped out and failed to score.

Portugal was so angry that he shook his hand hard, obviously dissatisfied with himself for missing such an opportunity.

Real Madrid was also frightened up and down, and there was a burst of boos at the Bernabéu Stadium.

"Closer! Very close!"

Enrique became excited on the sidelines, "I can already smell the goal, it's getting closer!"

The Barcelona coach is now full of excitement.

After the opening, Barcelona not only controlled nearly [-]% of the ball, but also almost suppressed Real Madrid.

Facts have proved that the starting tactics of the two rookie coaches of Real Madrid are still conservative. They did not have any decent midfield pressing and pressing, but let Barcelona pass the ball very easily in the midfield.

Everyone knows that Barcelona is good at passing and controlling, and Real Madrid does not apply pressure in the midfield. Doesn't this mean giving Barcelona a chance?

"Continue to attack me!"

"Keep it up! Keep it up, as long as you score one goal, there will be more in the future!"

This is the Bernabéu stadium, as long as Barcelona scores a goal, Real Madrid must be impatient.

Confrontation?

Especially when Real Madrid is in a hurry to attack, this is definitely the scene Barcelona wants to see the most.

So far, the game has lasted for 10 minutes, and it has been acting according to Enrique's script.

The head coach of Barcelona also began to stabilize on the sidelines, with his arms around his chest, pointing and pointing from time to time, admiring the good show he personally directed.
