There is a belief called football

Chapter 486 Battle Horse Atletico ([-])

After the game started, Simeone pointed here and then there. If he didn't look at his black suit, he would have thought it was Klopp who was berating Fang Qiu!

Klopp, who was wearing a tracksuit beside him, had a smile on his face and a calm expression. Neither team's style of play is ball-handling, which also causes the ball to run faster, and the offensive and defensive rounds of the two teams will be faster.

Such a game is enjoyable and exciting for the fans, but for the head coach, the heart load will be heavy.

Atletico Madrid's starting lineup for today is:

Goalkeeper - Oblak

Defenders - Felipe Luis, Gimenez, Godin, Juanfran

Midfielders - Fernandes, Gabi, Koke, Saul Niggs
Forwards - Carrasco, Griezmann

After the opening, it was true that Atletico Madrid frequently kicked the ball from the wing and did not fight Dortmund in the midfield. Atletico Madrid wanted to take advantage of Weidenfeller's slow attack and win in chaos, but what they didn't expect was that after several passes, the ball was either cleared by Zhou Dun and Hummels, or shot out of the penalty area by Weidenfeller. In short, the situation that Atletico Madrid expected did not appear.

Although "Griezmann" is only 1 meters, he seems to be an atypical center, but in fact Griezmann has a strong ability to grab points, and he once staged a barb to score a goal. He is now the most important striker of the French national team.

After Atletico Madrid's midfield pass was blocked, they themselves began to change. The ball was first given to the small penalty area, then to the penalty spot, and finally to the line of the large penalty area.

But the problem is that in this position, you don't have much threat to hold the ball.

is it?

Maybe for most, but obviously for Griezmann, no.

When "Koke" passed the ball to the arc of the penalty area, Griezmann jumped back and threw a barb into the air.

Barb outside the restricted area? ?
Do you think you are the Mex of AC Milan?But Mex was also French.

Griezmann's movement is extremely chic, but the ball is high, that's it, this kick also won the applause of the audience, especially even Klopp applauded, because people with poor skills can easily hurt themselves by doing such movements.

But after 5 minutes, the Dortmund fans knew what was wonderful. After Royce broke through "Juanfran" from the side, he sent a half-high ball to the penalty area. Li Qiao detoured from the side to the center. The pass was not good.

But for Li Qiao, a failed pass became an opportunity to show off his skills. Li Qiao half-turned and raised his legs to draw the football. It was similar to Zidane's technique in the past. It was also very chic, but the ball was also a little higher.

Simeone used to be an Argentine international. He knew that this kick was very difficult, and Simeone also applauded as a good sign.

After the two teams showed their exquisite footwork in the first 10 minutes, the two sides were completely warmed up. Klopp doesn't like the coach who puts the bus, and neither does Simeone, so let's do it! !

*****
Gabi turned around in the midfield, wiped away Wang Kong, and kicked the ball to the side. The ball was passed to "Fernandez".

Fernandez glanced and saw "Carrasco" go forward. He pushed flat and gave it to "Carrasco". Griezmann moved in the penalty area again.

Before the game, Klopp arranged for "Hummels" to mark "Griezmann", but what he didn't expect was that the Frenchman was very thieves. He moved erratically in the penalty area, going to Zhou Dun's side for a while, and leaving the penalty area for a while.

Facing such a striker, it is very difficult to defend.

Carrasco was still watching, as if he was waiting for something, the experienced Hummels understood that this kid was waiting for "Griezmann" to give him a signal.

Sure enough, "Griezmann" pointed in front of Zhou Dun, and Hummels shouted: "Zhou Dun, in front of you".

Carrasco kicked the ball low and sent it to the forward point. Griezmann bypassed Zhou Dun, as if running in a "U" shape. This was too sudden, so Zhou Dun's reaction was still a bit slow.

Griezmann pushed lightly from the front point, and the ball got into the near corner of the goal, 1-0, Atletico Madrid took the lead.

When Atletico Madrid scored 15 minutes into the first half, the goal stunned the Dortmund fans.

Zhou Dun was even more at a loss, because there was only one Atletico Madrid striker in the penalty area, and he thought it would be enough to defend the opponent's cross, but what he didn't expect was that the two central defenders were taken advantage of by Griezmann!

Zhou Dun ran to Hummels and asked, "Why didn't you follow?"

"I was afraid that Griezmann would take both of us to the front and then the ball would go to the back".

It can only be said that Griezmann is too thief, which is a bit like Bayern's Muller, with average speed and physical confrontation, but he is too thief and difficult to defend.

"Either way, let's not divide the labor, can Griezmann leave it to me alone," Zhou Dun said.

Hummels was stunned. Most people would shirk their responsibilities. This week Dun was good. Not only did he not shirk his responsibilities, but he also took the initiative to hold them in his arms.

This made Hummels embarrassed, "Okay then."

What I didn't expect was that the hero saw the same thing, and then Klopp's instructions came, "You take out one man to mark the man, don't let Griezmann take advantage of the loophole."

Hummels chuckled, turned around and said OK to Uncle Zha.

Just as Klopp was setting up, a black shadow flashed in front of his eyes. It turned out that Simeone was over excited and rushed to Klopp's coaching area.

Simeone is also the kind of coach who likes to celebrate passionately after scoring a goal, but this time he was obviously too excited. Klopp quit, go crazy on your own side, Klopp grabbed Simeone's suit.

This pull almost caused Simeone to fall backwards. Simeone was very hot-tempered.

This time Klopp was angry, and you, Xiaoyan, still pushed me. Klopp stretched out five fingers and pressed Simeone's face, pushing the latter away.

Simeone pointed at Klopp and refused to give up. The two men were on the verge of breaking out, and they might fight at any time. Fortunately, the top coaches were still there. Klopp and Simeone separated after meeting each other for a while.

But this small conflict immediately raised the atmosphere of the stadium. Without steaming buns to fight for breath, the players all held back their energy to vent their anger on the coach.

*****
At 25 minutes into the game, Li Qiao took the ball from the wing, and Felipe tackled the ball from behind.

This ball Felipe is a generational experience, his action is not big, but the referee keenly felt that the atmosphere on the scene was not right, so he issued a yellow card to suppress it.

Simeone felt that he was at a disadvantage again, and applauded Klopp, meaning: "Not bad, you pretended well."

Simeone is not just looking for trouble, he knows that facing Li Qiao, Felipe only needs to get a yellow card, and then he is probably not far from getting a red card.

"Control, control", Simeone kept gesturing to his midfielder, as if he felt the rhythm was a little too fast.

But the midfield style of play does not just change, it needs a process of changing speed, and this process is an opportunity that Dortmund can take advantage of.

Wang Kong tried his best to steal the ball from "Koke". When "Koke" fell to the ground and raised his hand to complain about the opponent's foul, Wang Kong had already launched an attack. Mkhitaryan dribbled the ball and rushed forward.

Mkhitaryan gave the ball to Royce. Juanfran stepped forward. The bearded man was a ruthless character. Royce flicked the instep and returned it to Mkhitaryan.

Felipe, who followed him like a shadow, immediately followed, and after Li Qiao got the ball, he had an idea to rush him!Li Qiao understood that Felipe would not dare to stretch his feet again unless he wanted to.

Sure enough, Li Qiao accelerated forward, but Felipe withdrew his foot halfway. He hesitated. In other words, he didn't want to be sent off. If it was the last critical moment, then he would go down. It doesn't matter. The problem is not now.

Felipe gave up the resistance, and the central defender "Jimenez" behind him was in a bad situation. Facing the full-speed Li Qiao, Jimenez had no time to change direction. It was easy and simple, and Li Qiao passed the "Jimenez" who was like a big log.

The atmosphere in the audience reached a boiling point, Li Qiao, Li Qiao, Li Qiao! !

Facing the goalkeeper "Oblak", Li Qiao poked the ball into the far corner with his toe, and the ball was pushed very accurately. Oblak made a split, but the ball still passed his toe.

The ball is in.

The live DJ shouted Goooooooooooooal! !
"Who scored the goal"?
"Li Qiao".

Klopp is a person who "holds vengeance". He punched Simeone with a combination of punches.

As soon as Dortmund equalized, both sides slowed down the pace. After 35 minutes in the first half, the physical bottleneck was a problem. The two sides played offensive football in the first half. By this time, they also need to take a breather.

Simeone turned around and let Torres warm up. As soon as the Spanish golden boy came out, there was a burst of boos at the scene. It turned out that Torres and the Germans still had a relationship. In the 2008 European Cup final, it was Torres who beat the German team and snatched the "Delaunay Cup".

After so many years, it is clear that the German fans have not forgotten that scene back then. Torres did not respond. He lowered his head and did a switchback run with great intensity. It seems that he will play at the beginning of the second half. Now he hastened to stretch his core muscles.

Klopp looked at Torres, but what he looked at would inevitably meet Simeone's eyes, "Why does he look so annoying".

If Uncle Zha knew an old Chinese saying, he would suddenly see the light, that is, "If you are born Yu, then you will be born bright".
