The green devil

The Spaniard was a little confused by Griezmann's goal.

The opponent played too fast, half a beat faster than the Spaniard's players every time. It seemed that it was a pass without much threat, but it was half a beat faster, and it immediately had an unexpected effect.

When they were fans before, Zhao Yang and his classmates scolded Atletico Madrid for playing football too rough and without technical content.

In today's fight with real swords and guns, Zhao Yang discovered that Atletico Madrid's roughness must be rough, but it definitely has technical content.

Not to mention the defensive position, just this time the goal, a few passes, running positions and getting rid of are all very exciting.

Griezmann's final shot was the finishing touch.

The shooting technique is exquisite and the imagination is rich, even the Brazilian may not be better than Griezmann.

Atletico Madrid's first goal is a huge challenge for the Spaniard.

As we all know, Atletico Madrid started out by relying on defensive counterattacks.

Being scored first by Atletico Madrid cannot be said to be "sentenced to death", but it is certain to enter the difficult mode.

The Spaniard's head coach Sergio looked helpless. The ball cannot be blamed on the players, the defense did not lose its position, and the timing of the attack was not a big problem. It's just that the Spaniard and Atletico Madrid are not in the same rhythm of the game.

There is no way to do this, but to let the players quickly adapt to the rhythm of the game, and not to be scored by Atletico Madrid.

With Atletico Madrid's defensive ability, let Atletico Madrid score again, even if Real Madrid and Barcelona come, they can only wait to lose.

After the middle circle kick-off, the game continued.

Atletico Madrid did not slow down because of the score, they continued to press high, forcing the Spaniard's players to make mistakes.

The Western Super League is the Western Super League, and their game rhythm is indeed different from that of the mid-range teams in La Liga.

This fast-paced, strong confrontation, and high-pressure pressing style of play made it difficult for the Spaniard players to adapt.

The Spaniard just kicked off the ball in the middle circle, and before passing the ball a few times, he was forced to drive forward.

There was Caicedo in front of the Spaniard, and Caicedo hadn't won with a header. He simply couldn't snatch the wolf-like Godin and Jimenez.

After Atletico Madrid steals the ball, they basically don't make short passes, but almost always make long passes to the frontcourt, directly attacking the Spaniard's defense.

Atletico Madrid's long pass is accurate and the frontcourt is coordinated smoothly. Under Atletico Madrid's continuous attack, the Spaniard's defense is like a small boat in the sea, which may capsize at any time.

Zhao Yang took control of the ball for the first time in the 10th minute.

It's not that the Spaniard's players don't pass the ball to Zhao Yang. It's that Atletico Madrid's defense is too fierce and decisive. As long as they pass the ball to Zhao Yang, no matter how far away, they will immediately shovel.

I would rather foul and give a set kick than let Zhao Yang get the ball.

Zhao Yang was also a little confused at the beginning, and often gave up taking the ball himself, asking for a throw-in or a set kick, or letting his teammates get the ball.

And that's exactly what Atletico Madrid players want to see.

In the Espanyol team, Zhao Yang and Asensio are the most threatening to hold the ball, and they are also the engines of the Espanyol's offense.

Zhao Yang made a good breakthrough and Asensio made a good pass.

In response to these two points, the tactics adopted by Atletico Madrid are to prevent Zhao Yang and Asensio from touching the ball, and let other players of the Spaniard handle the ball.

Zhao Yang reacted quickly, he was vaguely aware of his opponent's intentions, if he continued to play like this, maybe he would have nothing to do in the whole game.

You must face the opponent's fierce defense directly, and you must have the courage to be shoveled and let the opponent take the card.

This time Zhao Yang swayed away Thiago with a change of direction. After receiving the ball, he boldly smashed the ball and avoided Saul's flying tackle.

In the first 10 minutes, the Espanyol team was under pressure from Atletico Madrid, and there was almost no chance to attack. Zhao Yang's two escapes were beautiful, and the Espanyol fans in the stands immediately gave applause and encouragement.

After throwing away two defenders in a row, Zhao Yang finally gained some space. He immediately took the ball forward and rushed towards the 30-meter area.

In the 30-meter area, Zhao Yang has a lot of options to choose from.

It can break through and shoot from a distance.

In this position, he is not afraid of the opponent's foul. Zhao Yang now has two free kick skills. If there is a free kick opportunity, Zhao Yang does not mind giving the opponent a little color.

Central defender Jimenez quickly greeted him, and Saul also followed closely from behind.

Zhao Yang approached Jimenez, stepped on a bicycle, quickly changed direction, and went straight to the upper left corner of the penalty area.

Zhao Yang didn't want to break through, he just wanted to make a kicking gap.

However, Zhao Yang still thought too much, Jimenez simply ran towards the foul, Zhao Yang changed direction, and Jimenez shoveled across.

Jimenez wasn't reckless either. His horizontal shovel had a wide range. Even if Zhao Yang dodged it, he would have wasted time, and Saul would definitely have time to make up for it.

If Zhao Yang can't dodge, then give him a free kick, it's not enough to get a yellow card.

As for Zhao Yang's free kick, Atletico Madrid's players were not afraid. Their goalkeeper Oblak was not a vegetarian.

Zhao Yang didn't dodge, he wanted to smash the ball and let Jimenez's body slide over, but was brought down by Jimenez's arm.

beep!

The referee blew his whistle, pointed to the place of the foul, and awarded a free kick.

Zhao Yang didn't wait for others, and stood in front of the ball by himself.

He had just signed in and obtained the "S-shaped free kick" stunt, and was about to see how the effect would be, so naturally he would not let Asensio do his part.

Asensio didn't mind either. He walked up to Zhao Yang and reminded him, "Oblak's reaction was quick. I'm afraid your "Falling Leaf Slash" won't fool him that easily."

Zhao Yang nodded to show that he understood, and then began to measure the pace, ready to take the penalty.

Goalkeeper Oblak had four players form a wall to block the near corner and he blocked the far corner himself.

The referee saw that the wall was lined up, the goalkeeper and Zhao Yang who took the free kick were all ready, so he blew his whistle to indicate that Zhao Yang could take the kick.

Zhao Yang made a small run-up and vigorously pumped the ball towards the goal.

After the ball crossed the wall, it seemed that it was going to fly to the near corner. Oblak moved quickly in this direction, ready to save the ball after it fell quickly.

Oblak did not underestimate Zhao Yang's free kick technique, and made serious preparations before the game.

But after Oblak moved two steps, the ball suddenly changed direction in the air, and the ball turned and flew to the far corner of the goal.

Not Fallen Leaf Chop!Oblak was caught off guard and exclaimed, but it was too late to go back, he could only watch the ball draw a completely opposite S-shaped trajectory and fly into the gate.

1:1

In the 11th minute of the game, Zhao Yang took his first shot and used a weird S-shaped free kick to break through Oblak's ten fingers.
