Football: start copying peak Messi attributes

Chapter 513 Ronaldo’s locker room speech!

"Great job guys, I'm so proud of you!"

Guardiola was very satisfied with the result of the first half. Although Real Madrid scored a goal, it was harmless.

As long as they still hold the lead, the initiative in the second half will still be in their hands.

Guardiola prepared several sets of tactics before the game to target different situations.

Now that they are leading, their tactics in the second half must focus on controlling the situation and consolidating their existing advantages.

On the other side, Real Madrid's tactical choices are completely different.

After returning to the locker room, Zidane's expression was very serious.

He raised his hand to signal the noisy players to quiet down:

"Hurry up and take a good rest. Don't waste your energy. Listen to me next!"

After saying that, he quickly took out the tactical board, found a position facing all the players, and then began to draw on the tactical board.

"Our offense didn't work in the first half, and there were some problems with the midfield connection. Modric, Isco, you two have to step up and share the worries for the team!"

Hearing that he was called out, Isco's heart suddenly jumped and he immediately became nervous.

"Yes, boss!"

Zidane nodded, then drew Real Madrid's offensive line in the midfield and asked him to play according to this routine.

Real Madrid's lack of offensive firepower in the first half had a lot to do with Isco's abnormal performance.

To solve this problem, he must be moved and cannot be completely stared at by the opponent.

If he can't successfully dribble the ball and make threatening passes on the court, it's better to replace him with someone more suitable.

Real Madrid has Ronaldo on the bench. If Isco's performance still fails to improve in the second half, Zidane will have to play this card.

As for Modric, with his football intelligence, Zidane only made some demands and didn’t emphasize the rest too much. With the opponent’s football intelligence, even if he didn’t say it, Modric would definitely be able to think of it. .

In addition to Modric and Isco, the two midfielders who bear offensive responsibilities, Zidane also made some demands on Casemiro.

Let him take advantage of his good physical fitness and large coverage, assist his teammates when defending, and completely target the two most threatening points in Manchester City's midfield - De Bruyne and Lin Quan!

Yes, with Zidane, he positioned Lin Quan as a midfielder.

Because in the last match between Manchester City and Atletico Madrid, he had seen Lin Quan's organizational skills on the wing, so he did not simply treat Lin Quan as a winger.

If this guy really dribbles the ball towards the goal, he will naturally need a defender to defend him, but if he plays the role of an organizer, then Real Madrid's midfielder cannot hesitate and must stand up!

After explaining the midfield, Zidane glanced at his own defense with a headache.

The performance of the pair of Ramos and Pepe can be said to be quite bad today, especially the second goal conceded, which was simply a low-level mistake.

"Ramos, Pepe, forget the failure in the first half, cheer me up, show full energy, and play the second half well, can you do it?"

Ramos and Pepe both lowered their heads, thinking they were going to be scolded by the head coach with a hair dryer, but to their surprise, the head coach did not reprimand them.

This surprised them very much: "Don't worry, boss, I promise I won't let that kid succeed again!"

Pepe was instantly resurrected with full health, as if what happened before had never happened.

This Peking Opera-style change of face made his teammates look at him one after another. Isn't this guy too shameless?

"Lin is very strong. Don't try to fight him one-on-one. Your task is to stop him and prevent him from shooting. Remember, don't blindly grab the ball again!"

Zidane originally didn't plan to say anything, but when he heard Pepe's words, he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth a few times, and gave a few more worried words.

"Ramos, when kicking off, don't rush to kick. We have to control the ball at our feet and make the most of every offensive opportunity!"

After Real Madrid fell behind in the first half, the players were in a hurry. On several occasions, after successful defense, they were anxious to launch a counterattack and went directly to find the striker.

But the success rate of this tactic is very low. Most of their attempts failed and the ball was returned to Manchester City, allowing Manchester City to gain more offensive opportunities.

Now that Manchester City is leading, if nothing unexpected happens in the second half, Manchester City may try to control the rhythm of the game, keep the ball at their feet as much as possible, and not give Real Madrid too many offensive opportunities.

In this case, Real Madrid must improve their offensive efficiency.

After giving instructions to all the players in the midfield and backcourt, Zidane turned his attention to the three players in the frontcourt.

Bale, Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo are all famous attackers in football.

However, in the first half of the game, the performance of the three was not particularly impressive.

This is of course due to insufficient support from teammates, but it is also related to their own poor condition.

"Our offense needs to be more sophisticated in the second half..."

Zidane talked about offensive tactics for five minutes before giving up.

"Do you all understand your responsibilities?"

"Understood!"

"Okay, then rest peacefully!"

Zidane has finished speaking. He is actually not the kind of coach who is very good at boosting morale and saying impassioned words.

Even if he were asked to continue talking, he would probably only be able to say something like 'come on' and 'work hard'.

But he actually needs to say something at this time, because Real Madrid's morale is obviously a bit low, and someone needs to stand up to boost morale.

Since Zidane has not taken on this responsibility, someone has to do it.

Ronaldo, who was lying down to rest, suddenly stood up and looked at his teammates.

"Listen, I have to remind you one thing. We are only 45 minutes away from making history!"

Ronaldo's sudden statement surprised all the Real Madrid players.

They stopped their private conversation and looked at Ronaldo.

Cristiano Ronaldo was not afraid of the eyes of everyone. He faced these eyes and continued his speech:

"We must do our best in the next 45 minutes, use all our abilities and squeeze out all our potential!

It’s not just that we wear Real Madrid jerseys and represent this great team with a long history.

It's because we are the best players on the planet and we have the ability to do this. "

Ronaldo's speech had a good effect, and the fighting spirit of many Real Madrid players was successfully inspired by him.

"I know that many of us have never been to the Champions League final and have not experienced the test of such an exciting and exciting game, but it doesn't matter, I have such experience, and I will lead us all to victory!"

It was the first time for the vast majority of Real Madrid players to reach the Champions League final, and nervousness filled everyone's heart.

Ronaldo's words just now were like a beacon in the dark night, dispersing the fog, illuminating the direction of their prospects and allowing them to find support.

Some players, especially young players, began to applaud enthusiastically.

This is the first time that they regard Ronaldo as a true team leader, not just a high-priced, capable superstar. Seeing this scene, Bell's face looked a little lonely.

He knows that he has completely failed in the competition with Ronaldo. As long as Ronaldo does not leave, he will never be able to replace Ronaldo's position in the Real Madrid team.

Ronaldo was very satisfied with the effect of his speech, so he continued:

"For many of us, this may be our only opportunity in this life. If we miss this opportunity, we will regret it for the rest of our lives!"

"So, let's risk everything we have and fight with all our strength!"

"fighting!"

"fighting"

"fighting!"

The morale of the Real Madrid players had been completely boosted. They were all waving their arms and shouting, completely forgetting Zidane's previous instructions for them to take a good rest and conserve their energy.

……

The sound insulation effect of the visiting team's locker room is not good, and Manchester City can hear the noise made by Real Madrid very clearly.

"It seems that they have not been defeated. The battle in the second half may be more intense than we imagined!"

Hearing the noise from the locker room next door, Guardiola, who had finished explaining his tactical arrangements, joked.

"Haha, then let's beat them until they are convinced and help them recognize the reality!"

The morale of Manchester City's soldiers is also high, and they don't even need to boost their morale.

The fifteen-minute break ended quickly, and both sides quickly returned to the field.

Before kick-off, Lin Quan felt someone on the other side looking at him.

Looking up, he found Ronaldo looking at him with a challenging look.

That look seemed to be saying: Let's have a good competition next!

Lin Quan raised his eyebrows and smiled: Why not?

beep!

With a long whistle, the second half of the Champions League final between Manchester City and Real Madrid officially begins!

The two sides completed the change of sides and Real Madrid kicked off.

Ronaldo kicked the ball to Benzema, who passed it back to Isco and quickly rushed forward.

At the same time, Ronaldo, Bale and others also pressed hard at the same time.

Not just them, Real Madrid's midfielders and even the backcourt players began to press hard!

At the beginning of the second half, Real Madrid launched a massive attack on Manchester City.

coming!

The fans at the scene and in front of the TV felt refreshed, and everyone was looking forward to seeing this round of Real Madrid's attack.

"This scene feels a bit familiar!"

On the Manchester City coaching bench, Guardiola and the assistant coaches felt that they had seen this scene before. At the beginning of the first half, Real Madrid seemed to have played like this.

Is this to seize the opening, take advantage of the opportunity at the beginning of the game when the players have not fully adapted to the rhythm of the game, and catch Manchester City off guard?

The tactic of grabbing the opening is not a new thing. Teams often use this tactic in games. If the opponent is not focused enough and the players are busy entering the state, they may be caught off guard.

For example, the fastest goal in the midfield league was when Jiangsu Sainty grabbed the opening and caught Guangzhou Evergrande off guard. Before most of the Evergrande players had time to react, they sent the ball into Evergrande with just a few passes. Big goal.

Real Madrid obviously wants to achieve such an effect, but the actual effect does not seem to be ideal.

Although Isco successfully handed the ball to Benzema, Benzema was about to pass it to the forward Ronaldo.

But at this moment, the experienced Cross directly made a tackle and brought down Benzema with the ball.

Manchester City ruined Real Madrid's attempt with a tactical foul.

However, Cross also received a yellow card for the foul just now. For a defensive midfielder, the price of this yellow card is actually quite high.

Fortunately, it was Cross who took the card, not Kanter.

Cross's defensive tasks in the midfield and backfield are not heavy, and the probability of being expelled after receiving a second yellow card is low.

The location of Manchester City's foul was still far away from the goal. After discussing with each other, the Real Madrid players decided that Ronaldo would take the penalty.

Ronaldo took several steps back, stood there with his legs spread wide, and looked at the goal resolutely.

This iconic move caused bursts of cheers at the scene, and some Real Madrid fans began to shout loudly:

"Enter one!"

"Enter one!"

Ronaldo's free kick threat is still great, and he has used free kicks to score goals many times.

Among them, his iconic elevator ball can be said to make many goalkeepers change their colors after hearing it.

Navas is well aware of Ronaldo's free kick capabilities, so he is very serious when directing his teammates to line up the wall, trying to block all Ronaldo's shooting angles.

Lin Quan and Aguero were relatively short, so they became the first human wall, standing not far from Ronaldo, as a symbolic interference.

Ronaldo withdrew his gaze towards the goal, and his eyes stayed on Lin Quan for half a second.

Cristiano Ronaldo knows that the guy opposite him is also a master of free kicks. He even defeated his Real Madrid team at the Bernabeu with an S-shaped free kick that shocked everyone.

That game and Lin Quan's free kick can be said to be deeply engraved in Ronaldo's heart and will never be forgotten in his life.

Thinking of this, Cristiano Ronaldo planned to show off his skills to the opponent and let the opponent know that you are not the only one who can do free kicks, I can also do it, and I am even better than you!

He looked away from Lin Quan, took a deep breath, and after calming down, Ronaldo started to run!

One step, two steps, three steps...

The frequency of his steps is getting faster and faster, and he is getting closer and closer to the football.

When he got close to the football, Ronaldo had already completed all the shooting movements including swinging his arms and raising his legs!

There was a loud bang, and the football roared over the heads of Lin Quan and Aguero.

The two made a symbolic jump and had no chance of touching the ball.

Both of them subconsciously turned their heads and looked behind them in mid-air. At this time, the football had already jumped over the second wall.

Even the higher second wall did not block the ball.

And the height of the ball is still rising!

Could it be said that it was too high?

Seeing the ever-increasing height of football, many people have this idea in mind.

However, the next second, they changed their minds!
