Chapter 487 Fighting Real Madrid Again
In the away locker room at the Bernabeu, Vincent frowned and thought for a long time, and then slowly said, "This game may be just a game against Real Madrid for us, but for Real Madrid this game It’s not as simple as that.”

Fan Shang took out a pen and wrote a few lines on the whiteboard, "First, they lost to us by four goals in the last game. In this game, they must play well at home. Second, this year is Real Madrid. They don’t want to lose the club’s centennial celebration, this kind of home game where there is a strong dialogue.” Vincent glanced around, and then slowly said, “Not to mention the other things, it’s for these two purposes. First of all, Real Madrid’s own It will definitely show its full strength, then the fans will build momentum, and finally if they are not satisfied, the referee may take care of Real Madrid today. Do you understand?"

What Fan Shang said is very reasonable. For such an important game, Real Madrid has definitely made full preparations both on and off the field. They don't want to lose a big away game and then lose to Valencia at home. But it's hard to face, and it's even more disgraceful to this year's centennial celebration.

When the game time came and the players were about to play, Fan Shang emphasized again, "Control your temper, and you must pay attention to today's referee's penalty scale!" Fan Shang was really afraid that the situation at Inter Milan would reappear. The referee embarrasses the team.

Fan Shang entered the Bernabeu with an uneasy mood. This is not the first time Fan Shang has come to the Bernabeu. He did not feel the shock of the first time. Similarly, he is in a bad mood today, and he has no mood to watch these things.

After shaking hands with Bosque, Fan Shang honestly sat back on his seat. Fan Shang kept staring at the referee, but Fan Shang was disappointed. After guessing the side, Fan Shang didn't notice what the referee had said. Similarly, the referee's penalty in the opening 10 minutes was also very fair, so Fan Shang let go of half of the big stone in his heart.

In this game against Valencia's high-post press, Bosque used a defensive counterattack. Vincent looked at Zidane on the field and wanted to laugh. When he was in Bordeaux, Zidane didn't want to be in Vincent's defensive counterattack. In the system, he moved to Juventus, but when he arrived at Juventus, Juventus is an expert in defensive counterattacks. After switching to Real Madrid again, Del Bosque often engages in defensive counterattacks in some important games. In the French national team, it is also a defensive counterattack.

Both teams are doing their best today. Real Madrid's formation is 442, goalkeeper Iker Casillas, four defenders, Salgado, Hierro, Elguera and Roberto Carlos, four midfielders, Filipino. Go, Makelele, Solari and Zidane, strikers Raúl and Morientes.

Valencia is still the 361 that played smoothly this year. Goalkeeper Canizares, three defenders Ayala, Lucio and Djukic, double midfielders Albelda and Baraja, double midfielders Aimar and Belleron, two wingers Angulo and Mendieta, striker Tony.

The lineups of the two teams are actually similar to those of the first round, only one or two candidates have changed, and other aspects are exactly the same.

In this game, Bosque has learned the lesson of the last game. Although the lineup is the same, the distance between the three lines is more reasonable this time. Zidane's position is compressed very much. But the effect of standing in front of Makelele and standing in the middle circle is not the same.

And Real Madrid is also very careful when defending. Although Makelele is the only one protecting the penalty area, the two wingers are very good at defending. Although the two wingers Figo and Solari are not good at defending themselves, But still actively participate.

"It's the centennial celebration, they ran quite a lot today!" Fan Shang said to the assistant coach beside him.

"That's right, they are much more active than last year, probably because their bonuses have increased." Deschamps said with a smile.

Fan Shang frowned and watched for a long time, and found a problem. This Real Madrid is playing defensive counterattack, but Raul and Morientes are not sprinters. Midfielder Figo, Zidane and Sola Li is also good at technology, how do they fight back in this situation?
Anyway, more than ten minutes into the game, Vincent didn't see any counterattack from Real Madrid. Their offense still relied on this positional battle, but Valencia made three attacks, while Real Madrid just organized one.

Since the two flanks were severely restricted by Real Madrid, Valencia's attacking focus in the center, Belleron and Aimar, and Albelda sometimes participated.

In the 18th minute, Albelda dribbled the ball, Zidane stood there like a stake, and stretched his legs symbolically, Albelda showed the meticulousness of the Spanish players, and passed Zidane one by one. , and then continue to take the ball forward.

Now Makelele is quite passive, facing three offensive players alone.Seeing this, Fan Shang shook his head. After half a season, Makelele's situation has not changed at all, and he wiped the ass of the stars.

Makelele didn't dare to attack Albelda directly, and watched the three players while stepping back. At this time, he wished that someone would come to help him, but the two people in the back line would rather stare at one Tony than do anything to him. to help.

Several people in Valencia have long been accustomed to the situation of playing more and playing less. Several passes between the three made Makelele only make his final decision in front of the penalty area and shovel towards Albert who dribbled the ball. Even though Makelele knew that he was a fly to the fire, he had no choice but to do so when he was in this position.

Albelda easily made a pass to the side, and it was passed to Aimar's feet. At this time, Aimar had already stepped on the penalty area line. He could shoot, or continue to dribble or pass the ball. Aimar took a step forward , and then Elguera, who was originally marking Tony, stepped forward to defend Aimar, and Aimar crossed to Belleron who entered the penalty area at the same time as him.

Belleron, like Aimar just now, has ample opportunities to choose, can shoot, pass, and take. Elguera pounces on Belleron here again, and Belleron crosses to Aimar again.Valencia felt like no one was inside Real Madrid's penalty area.

At this time, Hierro couldn't stand it anymore. Originally, he was a grumpy person. Now that the restricted area he guarded was so humiliated, he couldn't bear it.
