Soccer Super Marksman

Cui Zhen had a serious expression on his face, and looked solemnly at every Real Madrid player who passed by in front of him. Probably due to the internal turmoil in Real Madrid, the players were stingy with responding to the outside world, as if everyone was sullen and just wanted to shape There was a state of fighting spirit.

With the whistle of the referee, the first half of the game began.

Real Madrid took the lead to kick off, and Manchester United's overall formation did not press forward. It seemed to be stable, but it was ready to shrink at any time.

To challenge Real Madrid in an away game, Manchester United will naturally play anti-counterattack, and it is more conservative than the general anti-counterattack. Maureen's protection.

Bell, who has been famous for a long time, has an offensive tendency similar to Lukaku: left/leaning!
Therefore, this side must strengthen the defense, otherwise the consequences will be disastrous.

Real Madrid did not launch an aggressive offensive at the beginning, passing the ball back and forth steadily to control the scene.The technical advantages of La Liga teams are unmatched by other leagues, let alone the giants Real Madrid.

It's time to test Manchester United's defensive center mentality!They maintained absolute calm and would never rush forward, compressing the defensive space and waiting for Real Madrid's offensive impact.

In the 3rd minute of the game, Real Madrid's right forward Modric instigated an offensive. However, Ronaldo, who had begun to decline significantly, did not grab a point on the front line, or even to grab a point. After all, if the high-altitude ball cannot bypass As a defender, grabbing headers is not something Ronaldo is very happy to do. He is better at attacking with the ball at his feet.

Manchester United had just finished a defense and thought it was time to counterattack. Unexpectedly, the football that was cleared by Bayi was intercepted by the brave midfielder Casemiro. After stealing the ball, Casemiro immediately passed the ball to Bale.

Bell moved forward with the ball, and Cui Zhen predicted the direction of Bell's breakthrough in the defense, and he guessed it right!
However, Cui Zhen was really surprised by Bell's sudden stop and spike in the process of passing the ball, and then breaking through from the other side.

Bell's realm no longer needs to deceive the opponent's center of gravity, but even if the opponent's prediction is correct, he can immediately change the direction of the dribbling. Football and his whole person seem to be one.

Cui Zhen, who failed to defend, was not discouraged, he was facing a master of today's football!

Cui Zhen immediately retreated to the penalty area to protect the back waistline.Sure enough, Bell moved forward along the left, and Mata immediately lined up with Smalling to defend Bell.

Isco got the chance to cross the bottom on the wing. Because he was too close to the bottom line, even though Ronaldo wanted to grab a point in front of the goal, Baiyi and Damian defended him very well. Isco did not make a pass. Instead, he dribbled the ball outside and wanted to swing out of an angle to shoot himself.

Just as he took a step outside, Lingard poked the ball out of the baseline in front of him.

Real Madrid won a corner kick, and Manchester United once again disrupted Real Madrid's offensive.

It wasn't until this corner kick was taken and was cleared by Damian's header that Manchester United got an offensive opportunity!
The soccer ball landed at Lukaku's feet after a clearance. He didn't turn forward, but looked backward. The distribution of Manchester United players rushing out from the penalty area was reasonable. Lukaku immediately chose to pass the ball after seeing Cui Zhen. To Cui Zhen.

When the football rolled in front of Cui Zhen, Ramos, the defender from diagonally behind, tried to intercept and press directly. He obviously underestimated Cui Zhen. Cui Zhen would deliberately change his speed in running and dribbling.

At the moment of touching the ball, Cui Zhen stepped forward and accelerated significantly.

This led to a deviation in Ramos's attack on Cui Zhen, and it was impossible for him to speed up the chase immediately, because he had to adjust the direction slightly.

And Cui Zhen took advantage of this opportunity to get rid of him. Casemiro had just retreated two steps, but found that Cui Zhen was dribbling forward too fast, so he immediately moved laterally to defend Cui Zhen.

Just as he was moving horizontally from the front right of Cui Zhen to the front of Cui Zhen, Cui Zhen suddenly turned the ball to the front right, just passing behind Casemiro diagonally.

At this time, he had reached the center line of the midfield, and there were Real Madrid players chasing and intercepting Cui Zhen from all directions. Under the tight siege, Cui Zhen passed the ball to the left side of the frontcourt with a long pass over the top.

Pogba entered the Real Madrid half without marking. Modric went to take a corner kick. At this time, the far water could not save the near fire. In the back middle position, he just went to defend Cui Zhen directly, and his defense zone was completely blank.

Cui Zhen's pass made Manchester United's counterattack very simple in the frontcourt.

2 on 2!

After Pogba successfully responded from the wing, he immediately dribbled the ball towards Real Madrid's penalty area.

Kroos took the lead in returning to the defensive position of the central defender in the middle, and then stepped out to defend Pogba one-on-one when Pogba had a tendency to cut inside.

Pogba decisively sent a through ball to Lukaku, and the person who followed Lukaku's shadow was the full-back Varane.

Pogba's through ball was a bit deep. When Lukaku rushed forward, he found it difficult to shoot directly. Varane's speed was not slow, and he consciously blocked Lukaku's sprint speed.

Navas abandoned the goal and rushed to the football.

When Lukaku took the lead to touch the ball, Varane directly blocked Lukaku's shooting angle with a sliding shovel. Lukaku had to stop the ball and pass Varane, but in this short period of time, Navas had already Came to a position less than 2 meters in front of Lukaku. When Lukaku swiped the ball to the right to avoid Varane who passed by with a slide tackle, Navas, who made a choice in the last step, calmly moved laterally, and then moved closer After passing Lukaku, Lukaku tried to shoot directly by surprise. Anyway, as long as he can pass the ball through Navas, he is absolutely sure that the goal will be scored!
But Navas fell to the ground decisively to block Lukaku's shot, and held the football firmly in his arms.

Lukaku looked at Navas who blocked his shot in front of him, with a trace of unwillingness in his eyes!
Maybe a lob would be better?Think these are useless!
Navas' save caused thunderous applause from the Bernabeu.

In the Bernabeu Stadium, in front of Real Madrid's goal, the tall and stalwart figure of Keylor Navas stands there.

Unable to succeed in one blow, Manchester United was not discouraged. The formation immediately shrank and firmly implemented anti-counterattack tactics.

Real Madrid also continued to stage a crazy offensive, which is a trait that can never be changed in the noble genes of Real Madrid, attack!Not only to win, but also to win gorgeousness, to win the worship of thousands of people!
In the 12th minute of the game, Bell tried a long shot from outside the penalty area and hit the goal. Unfortunately, the angle was not tricky enough. De Gea blocked the ball, creating a crisis.

C Ronaldo seems to have a chance to make a supplementary shot in the penalty area. According to his level, after the supplementary shot, the unsuspecting De Gea is bound to be helpless, but when the key burst, Bayi, who was one shot behind, took the lead. The ball goes out.

Obviously, Ronaldo is no longer as brave as he used to be.

Real Madrid's offense is still very threatening, but only exists on the periphery, they have very little threat in the penalty area, and Ronaldo's poor form is the key factor.

When Isco is on the left, he is often squeezed out because of Bell's left/leaning offensive tendency.

Manchester United once again staged a threatening counterattack in the 18th minute of the game.After Cui Zhen cooperated with Lingard in the middle, he broke through Casemiro's defense line, because Mata on the right could not provide more help for the wing attack.Manchester United's counterattack space is limited by itself.

Cui Zhen faced Kroos after breaking through Casemiro's defense. At this time, Pogba cut into the inside from the left. Cui Zhen also moved the ball towards him. When he was about to meet Kroos, Cui Zhen took the ball Passed to Pogba on the left front, and then he ran to the place behind Pogba.

Pogba's running drove Marcelo closer to the middle, and Cross also switched defensive targets to intercept Pogba.

Pogba stepped on the ball after receiving the ball and pulled it behind him.Kroos' interception failed, and while Marcelo and Cui Zhen passed by, the football also returned to Cui Zhen's feet.

At this time, Cui Zhen took a step forward, and Ramos actively intercepted him.Ramos is still a little frizzy, he always wants to go directly to intercept the ball at the opponent's feet, and rarely pays attention to the cooperation of zone defense.

At this moment, when he stepped forward to break the ball under Cui Zhen's feet, Cui Zhen directly got rid of the change of direction in front of him. Ramos rushed too hard, and was wiped by Cui Zhen all at once!

After Cui Zhen wiped Ramos, he took a decisive shot!
He aimed at the lower left corner of the goal and suddenly blasted a heavy cannon.

Cui Zhen is very confident that this goal will definitely be scored!
But when the goalkeeper Navas moved like a rabbit, he calmly moved two steps sideways and then flew out to block the ball with a single palm, which changed the trajectory of the football and caused the football to rub against the goal post and roll out of the baseline.

Cui Zhen also looked up to the sky and let out a long sigh.

Goalkeeper Navas is indeed the top three world-class goalkeepers in today's football!
No, door god!

"Goalkeeper Keylor Navas has made another contribution! Real Madrid's defense is simply too bad. If this situation continues, it seems that Real Madrid has an advantage in the home game, but in terms of the most critical shooting threat, Manchester United's shooting is even more powerful. Lethality! Do you rely on goalkeeper Keylor Navas every time?"

Due to Manchester United's fear of Real Madrid's offensive speed, the opponent here has a passer like Modric who is extremely accurate in the middle and long passes, and there is also a player like Isco who advances from the side with a speed that explodes. Therefore, even if it is a corner kick attack, Manchester United The investment rate is not very high.

Pogba's corner kick was eventually cleared by defender Carvajal with a header, and then Real Madrid also wanted to launch a counterattack, but turned their heads and looked forward, and found that Manchester United's overall defense speed was not only fast, but its own defensive flaws were almost invisible .

Real Madrid's offense has become a bit difficult, because the previous offense did not play well. The core midfielder Bell seems to use other methods to threaten Manchester United's goal, but his changes did not allow his teammates to keep up with the rhythm immediately.
