All-around center

The hot Allianz Arena, the fanatical fans, and the strong football atmosphere.

Those waving flags, the loud cheers, and the loud singing, all together constitute the music of the Champions League semi-finals.

In the Champions League semi-finals, which is the super showdown between Bayern Munich and Real Madrid, the overall atmosphere has reached its peak without any hype.

All fans, even if they are far away on the other side of the ocean, will get up at night to watch this game.

They are also looking forward to a wonderful game and are attracted by this "revenge battle".

In the 2012/2013 season, Bayern Munich eliminated Real Madrid in the semi-finals and won the Champions League trophy in one fell swoop.

A season has passed, and Real Madrid is ready to stand in front of Bayern Munich again.

As the seasons go by, the Champions League champions in the previous two years are now challengers.

They are going to challenge Bayern Munich, the defending champion of the Champions League, in the Champions League!

And their attitude and performance are also more "modest", and this humility is reflected in the surprising tactical configuration.

"4-3-1-2!!!"

"Oh my god!! Real Madrid suddenly came up with this retro tactical system after playing the 4-3-3 formation for a whole season! This is something we didn't expect."

"But Ancelotti is worthy of it. The tactical master's tactical reserves are still so sufficient. I believe Real Madrid will not rashly use this style of play. They must have gone through certain verifications and running-in."

"And finally being able to appear on the court means that this set of tactical play may be more suitable for this game!"

"The emergence of this tactic may be like a blow to the head, making Bayern Munich and Guardiola feel extremely uncomfortable!"

This is indeed the case. When the camera turned to Guardiola, he frowned, touched his chin with one hand, and kept rubbing his stubble, looking a little anxious.

Before the game, he paid a lot of attention to Suker's news and analyzed the tactical components of Real Madrid.

But he didn't expect Ancelotti to play such an old thing.

Today's 4-3-1-2 formation is still popular in Serie A, but in other leagues, this tactic is no longer common.

The reason is very simple, that is, this tactic is very, very, very lineup-dependent!

Especially the No. 10 position, which can be said to be the core of the core.

"Let's take a brief look at this tactic. 4-3-1-2 originated in Argentina, and it was also Argentina that promoted it."

"Argentina used this tactic in the 1966 World Cup."

"4-3-1-2 formation, midfielder is the core, in a diamond-shaped position."

"The base of the diamond is a back-half, and there are two shuttles on both sides of the base. The shuttle-type midfielder has a different range of activities than the wingers, more like two side-by-side central midfielders, and the player at the top of the diamond is the one who exerts imagination and creativity."

"Argentina has a name for this position called 'hook', but there is also a more elegant name ' Classical attacking midfielder'. "

"This formation requires the striker to have excellent running awareness, the shuttle midfielder to pull the side, and the full-back to assist, to fully create the width of the field. This is a formation with a strong offensive desire. If it works, it will be invincible, but when the system does not work well, various problems will arise. "

"Either there is a lack of width in the attack, or mistakes are made in order to create width. Therefore, if this formation wants to succeed, the players need to have extremely high personal abilities, and this is true for all positions. "

"The most classic team of this formation is AC Milan in 2007. The prismatic base is Pirlo, two The shuttles are Gattuso and Seedorf, and the player at the top of the prism, who represents the most creativity, imagination and offensive firepower, is Suker! "

"It can be said that Suker is not unfamiliar with this position, and many people also said that it was from this time that he began to move towards the title of "problem of the century." "

"In that era when Suker was invincible, AC Milan fully utilized the energy of this super player, and now Suker, his playing style is slightly different from the early days! "

"If it is Suker in 2007, it is a crazy and unstoppable super No. 10, he can create goals with his own personal ability . "

"He cannot be restricted, which determines that AC Milan will always have an inexhaustible imagination. "

"And now, after completing the transformation, Suker has become more team-oriented. "

"We can clearly see from the data that Suker's assists this season are unprecedented, and sometimes even sacrifice some goals. "

"Many people say that Suker is no longer a pure shooter. Here, I want to say that he has never been a pure shooter. Compared with shooters, he has always been the strongest No. 10!"

The Spanish commentator Gonzalez said a lot excitedly.

He was really excited.

Since the tactical mode changed and the rhythm gradually accelerated, the game has become more intense and hot.

But the tactical elements are no longer so brilliant.

There is no previous exciting feeling of the two coaches fighting against each other, you one move and I one move, and breaking each other's moves.

But tonight, in this game, Real Madrid added a color to the unchanging Champions League tactics, making it more vivid and clever.

No matter what the result is, Gonzalez is in favor of this behavior.

He believes that football should be like this. Winning or losing is important, but a rich and eye-catching tactical system is equally important.

"Let's take a good look. Oh my God, I can't wait!"

Gonzalez said excitedly, rubbing his palms.

The starting lineups of both sides are as follows:

Bayern Munich (4-2-3-1):

Goalkeeper: Neuer.

Defenders: Rafinha, Boateng, Dante, Alaba.

Midfielders: Robben, Lahm, Muller, Schweinsteiger, Ronaldo.

Forward: Mandzukic.

Real Madrid (4-3-1-2):

Goalkeeper: Casillas.

Defenders: Srna, Ramos, Pepe, Marcelo.

Midfielders: Casemiro, Kaka, Kroos.

Forwards: Bale, Suker, Benzema.

The camera is also very interesting. When he was taking a close-up of Suker, he suddenly turned to the coaching bench of Real Madrid.

Zidane was also watching the game there.

Undoubtedly, as the closest midfielder to the modern era and a classic attacking midfielder, Zidane has the most say in this position.

At this time, the faint smile on Zidane's mouth seemed to be full of confidence in this tactic and this style of play.

This is indeed the case. Real Madrid has experimented with this style of play since the beginning of the season.

It is a consensus that Suker can be competent in the midfield in addition to playing on the wing.

And this attacking midfielder position can be said to be the core of the core of the team's tactics.

Once it is contained, the entire tactic will not work.

But it is precisely this position that Suker, the Suker who is known as the century's problem.

Therefore, this set of tactics is feasible in Real Madrid, because Suker will not be contained, and Real Madrid can make full use of Suker's imagination and creativity to attack.

At the same time, Benzema, Bale, including the two shuttle midfielders and two full-backs, will also be fully mobilized in their offensive capabilities.

As for Suker's position, it is very free.

In addition to no defensive pressure, he can go wherever he wants.

In the diamond base, that is, the position of the back midfielder, Ancelotti chose Kaka instead of Kroos.

It's not that Kroos can't play this position, but Kaka is more familiar with it.

After all, Kaka has worked with Pirlo before, and he is more familiar with the rotation of this tactic. He has also experienced Pirlo's playing style as a teammate in the game. Even when Kaka was transforming, he also used Pirlo as a template.

Therefore, from any angle, Kaka is more suitable for this position.

Real Madrid's retro formation fights against modern fast-paced pressing. This kind of play gives people a feeling of facing up to the challenge. After all, this tactic has been somewhat understood.

But Ancelotti dares to take it out, and he must have his reasons.

"Fuck! How long has the attacking midfielder been abandoned? Suddenly, this lineup is used now. Is this disgusting to us?" Ribery couldn't help complaining. He pulled the scar on his cheek while speaking, which made him look even more ferocious: "What's frustrating is that Suker is the attacking midfielder. It's really disgusting!"

The other substitutes of Bayern Munich didn't speak, but they had the same idea as Ribery.

Everyone knows that this tactic requires restricting the attacking midfielder, but the attacking midfielder is Suker, and Suker can't be restricted.

So this tactic is fucking unsolvable!

Even a strong team like Bayern Munich is a bit troubled at this time.

They studied the 4-3-3 system for a whole season and prepared various means to fight against it. Real Madrid turned around and took out a 4-3-1-2. Isn't this purely disgusting?

Of course, this is also because Real Madrid has a rich tactical reserve.

Guardiola always feels that Ancelotti will not be so comfortable. As a tactical master who has created many formations, it is an insult to him not to play some tactical tricks.

However, he didn't expect Ancelotti to be so restrained that he didn't use this trick until the semi-finals.

Or, this tactic was specially prepared for them.

"Do you think they have any other preparations besides this tactic?" Zidane turned his head and asked.

With Suker's versatility and Real Madrid's lineup configuration, they can digest too many tactics.

"What other positions has Suker played?"

"Center forward? Full-back?"

"Full-back is impossible!" Guardiola touched his chin; "Center forward?"

At this time, the whistle in the stadium suddenly sounded.     Guardiola shook his head to get rid of the complicated thoughts, and now he still has to focus on the game.

He wants to see if Real Madrid's tactics can play out!

Bayern Munich took the lead in the first half.

Real Madrid also rushed up quickly. The traditional 4-3-1-2 tactics would not be equipped with such fierce pressing, so this is the result of Ancelotti's improvement.

This also tells Bayern Munich's players that they cannot combine this tactic with the style of play they remember.

"Hold steady! Test it out!"

Schweinsteiger shouted to his teammates after passing the ball.

Real Madrid doesn't know what's going on now, so they don't dare to attack rashly.

Once they are counterattacked, it's unknown what kind of game will develop.

Out of a cautious attitude, they played more steadily.

"Pass it to Robben and let him test it!"

"Mueller runs forward and confuses their defense. Let's see what these guys want to do!"

Bastian Schweinsteiger gave orders, but he remained calm.

The ball was also successfully passed to Robben's feet.

Frontcourt players Cristiano Ronaldo, Muller, Mandzukic and Robben, Robben has the best ball-holding ability.

It's not that Ronaldo can't hold the ball, but he is a pure shooter. Holding the ball too much will easily attract firepower and prevent him from running out of space.

Therefore, tactically, Ronaldo will only complete the last shot.

As for Muller, let alone that. His technique is really rough, but his awareness and positioning are the best among the best.

"They are coming! Withstand the first wave of attacks!"

Kaka also commanded loudly.

From his position, the field of vision is wider and he can observe the movements on both sides.

At the same time, he also greeted Ramos, always reminding him of his position.

He was afraid that his attention would be diverted to one side, causing him to neglect the other side.

In the fierce confrontation, Robben found that it was difficult for Real Madrid's defense to pass through at once, so he thought about moving sideways.

But just when he turned sideways and planned to pass the ball to his teammates, his eyes suddenly widened.

He saw that Suk actually took the initiative to stick to the position next to Ram.

Robben:? ? ?

What are you doing!

Brother!

You are the midfielder!

The front waist is farting!

Suk also looked at Robben, and he understood the meaning from his eyes.

Suk feels this stereotype is bad.

I play as an attacking midfielder, but since when have I been called ‘classical’?

With the evolution of modern football tactics, eleven players have to share the defensive task. If one person does not defend, the hole in the defense will be opened wider.

And the tactics also need to change accordingly!

There is indeed no place for the classical attacking midfielder to survive in modern football, and the reason is very simple. This type of player has a gorgeous style of play and outstanding skills, but poor defensive ability.

Therefore, it is difficult to achieve results in systematic defense, and it is gradually eliminated by mainstream tactics.

Real Madrid does play a 4-3-1-2 formation.

Su Ke is indeed also a midfielder.

However, his attacking midfielder is not classical, but very modern!

He plays a modern attacking midfielder style!

He can grab, he can fight, he can make sudden moves, he can pass and he can shoot!

Highlight the versatile attributes of a hexagon!

Robben's momentary brilliance caused him to miss a good opportunity to pass the ball, and the ball was stabbed forward by Kroos, who had quick eyes and quick feet.

After Cross poked the ball, he continued to advance diagonally.

Seeing such an opportunity, Su Ke leaned back suddenly, and then started to catch the ball again.

After Ram was hit, he failed to start smoothly and naturally fell about two positions behind Su Ke.

At this time, Ram not only had to be wary of Suk, but also of Cross who was diagonally advancing from the side.

Once he stands too close to Suker, Suker can pass the ball to Cross.

The two played a one-two match.

For this reason, Ram gritted his teeth and would rather be a few positions behind. He also wanted to ensure a central position that could take care of both sides.

But at this moment, Suk actually slowed down slightly.

His right foot moved forward to stop the ball, and he looked up in the far direction.

When Ram saw this scene, he felt that it was an opportunity, and Suk seemed to have neglected it.

After making up his mind, he immediately rushed over.

"careful!"

Cross reminded loudly from the side.

But Su Ke was unmoved.

"Good opportunity!"

Ram's eyes lit up and he quickened his pace again.

Just when he is about to get close to Su Ke, once Su Ke stops the ball, he can still pass it back even if he cannot press.

Moreover, Su Ke cannot pass the ball in this posture.

Just when Ram thought he had figured it out, Suk gently raised his right heel and missed the ball. At the same time, he turned around and stamped on the ground to chase the ball.

The whole movement is smooth and flowing, as quiet as a virgin and as moving as a rabbit in disgrace.

This was definitely something I had thought about in advance!

"What?"

Ram was startled, but Suk's turning speed was too fast, and his body was facing forward, and he was unable to turn around quickly due to the thrust.

He twisted his whole body and crawled on all fours, then he could barely turn around and start.

At this time, Su Ke had already rushed to the front of the ball.

"Be careful left"

Before he finished speaking, Su Ke raised his right foot again and rubbed the ball hard with the instep of his outer foot.

The ball formed a huge arc on the ground, bypassing the entire back line and rolling toward the neutral area on the right.

"Oh~~~~~~!!! It's coming! It's coming! It's coming! Rainbow pass!!"

"Suk's specialty!"

As Gonzalez cheered, Bell on the right also rushed slowly.

But central defender Dante was one step faster, clearing the ball in advance and kicking it out of the sideline.

When Bell saw that he failed to shoot first, he could only shake his head helplessly, and immediately looked at Suker at the far end.

He originally planned to signal that he was starting slowly, but Su Ke raised his hand first and made a gesture.

‘I’ve spread the word! ’

Bell was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to respond.

And Su Ke felt a little embarrassed.

Although he is the nominal founder of the 'rainbow pass', he has been very good at playing this kind of pass since coming to Real Madrid.

I haven't played for a long time, so I feel a little rusty.

The arc was not well-rounded, and this pass was indeed his own fault, as it was a bit too far.

Even so, this still made the Bayern Munich fans at the scene gasp and their hearts pounded.

As for the Real Madrid fans, they cheered together at this time.

Gonzalez was also excited; "It's been a long time since I saw Suker pass this kind of ball. The rainbow pass is Suker's specialty, presenting a huge arc on the ground. This is a spectacular pass that is comparable to the Belles arc!"

"In today's football world, players such as Kaka and Srna have also used this pass, but it most frequently appears at the feet of Belgian player Kevin De Bruyne of Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga."

"He also said that he was crazy about Suker's pass and kept training to achieve today's results."

"It can be said that the 'rainbow pass' has become a benchmark for testing the passing skills and vision of midfielders, and it is also a way to show off skills."

"Unfortunately, many people in the football world are imitating the rainbow pass, but Suker, the creator, no longer kicks this pass, but every time he draws a rainbow on the court, it is still so gorgeous!"
