Chapter 80
"Mourinho's team seems to really attack today."

Zhan Jun's commentary voice sounded:
"I don't know if it was affected by the war of words before the game?"

"At the press conference, my country's coach Pan Yi also rarely mocked Mourinho's defensive counterattack style. Is this really effective?"

"We all know that Mourinho is a man of temperament. Maybe Pan Yi just wants to take advantage of this and let Mourinho fight him?"

"And according to our understanding of coach Pan Yi, once the opponent falls into his trap, it may not be too easy..."

On the current field, Real Madrid seems to have controlled the initiative of the game.

Their players are very active in running, especially the few stars in the midfield, even pressing in Milan's half, pressing and pressing Milan's midfield and defenders in the frontcourt.

However, the Milan players did not seem to panic.

They pass the ball deftly.

Not just horizontally, but more vertically.

When Real Madrid's striker is approaching, Milan's central defender will pass the ball diagonally to the other side, which is an area where Real Madrid's defense is relatively weak.

At this time, Milan's midfielder will start to cooperate with the winger, and then wait for an opportunity to attack.

There is only one exception.

Cantor.

He doesn't seem to be fixed in his position of dragging the midfielder today, but has transformed himself into a ball-grabbing machine.

He ran tirelessly in midfield, cutting off the passing lanes of Real Madrid players and pressing close to players with the ball.

Especially for the opponent's No. 8 midfielder Kaka.

Whenever Kaka gets the ball, Kanter will block forward immediately, making Kaka very uncomfortable, and it is difficult to turn around and pass the ball, let alone create space for himself to advance-this is originally Kaka's goal. What cards do best.

"Why do I always feel that we seem to be controlling the game, but in fact Milan want us to do so?"

On the sidelines, Real Madrid's assistant coach said a little worriedly.

"Let's wait and see." Mourinho also frowned.

Of course, he can see that although Real Madrid currently has a higher ball possession rate, the coordination is a bit fragmented when it comes to the frontcourt, and it is difficult to play an effective offense.

The main reason is that the connection between the front midfielder and the winger has been completely cut off.

According to Mourinho's vision, the defensive system against Milan has developed supporting tactics around specific players Kaka.

When the winger holds the ball on the wing, the midfielder Kaka will advance to the parallel height of the center forward, forming a fulcrum for the double forwards. At the same time, they will tilt to the side with the ball, destroying the lateral balance of the opponent's defense.

At this time, center Benzema retreated to the midfielder's wing position to respond, taking the weak-side central defender who was marking behind him out of position, and at the same time opened up the space between him and the weak-side full-back.

Then Kaka's forward penetration from the side will take the center back on the ball side further away from the side, causing a certain degree of horizontal compression and overlap between the center back and the full back on the side with the ball.

After the winger completes the triangular pass with the corresponding center forward and defensive midfielder, he quickly cuts in and advances to the open area between the two central defenders of the opponent, or the open area behind the weak side central defender, and then receives a through ball or an overhead ball from the defensive midfielder. attack.

But the problem now is that when Kaka is holding the ball or even running without the ball, there is a dog skin plaster next to him that keeps sticking to him, making it impossible for Kaka to complete the tactical instructions correctly. There is no way to talk about it.

At this time, Real Madrid finally took a chance.

In the midfield, after Khedira stole the ball, the frontcourt quickly counterattacked.

Taking advantage of Kanter's absence, Kaka suddenly started after taking the ball, and after walking for more than ten meters, he distributed the ball to the right.

Cristiano Ronaldo took the ball to face Zambrotta, made a feint of stepping on a bicycle, then suddenly accelerated to the bottom line, crossed the ball and sent it into the penalty area.

Benzema in the middle scored a header and was caught by Edson with a side throw.

There was applause in the San Siro stadium, of course it was dedicated to the Milan goalkeeper.

"It would be great if this goal was scored." Mourinho breathed a sigh of relief.

Indeed, now that Real Madrid has the upper hand, if they can advance by one goal, they can better control the situation in their own hands.

The assistant coach nodded.

But he dared not say a word.

That is: this offensive opportunity was instead the result of their best counterattack.

It is because Milan was in an offensive state before. Although Kanter has been defending Kaka, he will also adjust his position according to the direction of the ball's movement.

At this time, Milan was suddenly intercepted, and Kanter was unable to return to his position in time for a while.

It was by taking advantage of this gap that Kaka comfortably held the ball and organized an effective attack.

It's just that the assistant coach now knows that Mourinho is all about using offense to defeat Milan tonight, so if he suggests defense or something, it is obviously a bit out of date.

It is even possible to cause Mourinho's fury-this temperamental coach is really likely to lose his temper with his coach and even the team doctor on the field.

Moreover, he is only an assistant coach after all. Although he is a little worried, he still believes in Mourinho's judgment, that is, Real Madrid will eventually get a chance to score with such an offensive tactic.

……

The game went on quickly for 20 minutes.

During this period of time, although the two sides seemed to be attacking each other, the shots showed more fighting in the midfield, and neither of them created absolute scoring opportunities.

"We can consider storming Ronaldo's side." Pan Yi suddenly said to Allegri.

Allegri squinted at the situation on the court and nodded.

Now Real Madrid's midfielder Kaka is completely restricted by Kanter, which makes it difficult for Ronaldo to get a comfortable through pass from Kaka.

And Milan's defenders looked at Ronaldo's bottom pass very badly, which also made Ronaldo's kick very unsatisfactory.

After trying several times to break through the sideways and failed, Ronaldo began to consciously move closer to the ribs and the center to catch the ball.

And after he leaned over here, Real Madrid's right back Arveiroa also moved inward to seek cooperation with Ronaldo.

This caused Real Madrid's entire right corridor to appear a bit empty.

With Allegri's instruction, Pan Yi stood up.

Taking advantage of a throw-in, he conveyed the instructions of the coaching staff to the field.

In the 25th minute, Ronaldo got the ball in the middle.

He moved the ball in the opposite direction, approaching Milan's penalty area diagonally.

This is also his special skill, which is to shoot directly after cutting inside.

But Gattuso was prepared, stuck in Ronaldo's path, and stretched out his feet to intercept the ball.

As soon as Real Madrid lost the ball, all players quickly switched to defensive mode and settled down one after another.

But Ronaldo and Arbeloa are a little far away from their defense at this time.

Gattuso passed the ball to the left winger Mane without hesitation.

Mane dribbled the ball forward, and it turned out to be straight to the corner of Real Madrid's penalty area.

Real Madrid defender Ramos hurried over to defend, but it was a bit late.

Mane had already taken a few steps horizontally, and then shot directly!
