Chapter 303 Famous Scene: A killer counterattack?
"aoaoaoooooo—"

Arsenal created consecutive chances to score, and the Arsenal fans at the San Siro were so inspired that they burst into deafening cheers.

Real Madrid coach Zidane realizes that blindly strengthening the offense may lead to goals instead of goals.

Arsenal did play passively at the beginning of the second half, but under Martin's command, the overall performance became better and better, leaving no good offensive space for the team.

Instead, he made full use of Martin's accurate passing characteristics in the limited offensive opportunities to create murderous opportunities one after another.

If Giroud or Sanchez had been better, Arsenal would have scored again.

Therefore, Real Madrid's next attack will be gradual, making full use of the strong overall force to slowly penetrate forward.

Although Martin is very strong, and his many appearances in key positions also reflect his keen sense of danger index, and his physical fitness is sufficient, but the football game is a team sport, and other Arsenal players' long-term and wide-area running will inevitably cause significant damage. Consumes physical energy, resulting in lack of concentration.

When the time comes, it’s your chance!

Real Madrid once again took control of the game with its strong team, and Arsenal players had to retreat to the 30-meter zone defense.

Martin is still the busiest one on the court. In addition to filling the fleeting gaps in the defense, he also has to direct the entire defense through body movements.

However, the game is very fierce and the stadium atmosphere is fanatical. In many cases, teammates simply don't have the extra thought to capture the gestures, which results in Martin having to appear in the most dangerous areas with a very high arrival rate.

The game came to 10 and 1 minutes, and the scoreboard still showed the score 1:[-].

Real Madrid greatly reduced their physical energy consumption by taking advantage of controlling the game. Arsenal players' physical fitness declined rapidly after being on the defensive for a long time.

Gnabry, who was very defensively motivated in this game, has gradually shown signs of physical exhaustion.

Wenger, who was standing in the technical area where the home team coach directed the game, saw it and was very satisfied with Gnabry's performance.

Gnabry was able to start, and his consideration was not more about offense, but defensive enthusiasm.

Theo Walcott, Chamberlain, and Welbeck are often not active enough in defense. This situation rarely occurs with the young Gnabry, so Wenger boldly used it in the Champions League final.

In the one-hour game he played, Gnabry performed well, sparing no effort on the defensive end, and was able to actively advance forward when switching from defense to offense, which also enriched the team's three-dimensional offense.

It is precisely because of this that Gnabry was a little physically exhausted just one hour into the game.

In the 62nd minute, Martin fell to the ground on the right and shoveled the ball out of the sideline from Marcelo's high-speed pass.

The referee Kaushoy noticed the fourth official's reminder and faced the technical area on the sidelines.

The on-site director switched the camera, first to Walcott in the technical area, and then quickly to Gnabry back on the court.

Gnabry, who originally felt that his calf muscles were stiff, saw that he was about to be replaced and felt that he was going to cramp, so he bent down and used his hands to break off the soles of his forefoot.

Martin, who was nearby, leaned over and whispered: "Lie down."

Gnabry was very smart and understood immediately. He sat down, raised his legs, pointed at his calf, and exaggeratedly shouted: "It's coming, it's going to come! Ah~"

Martin quickly asked Giroud to come over with him, put his palms on the soles of Gnabry's feet, and pressed down hard.

Cristiano Ronaldo was just next to him, and he heard clearly what Martin said while covering his mouth, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

Hold the grass!

Don't talk about martial arts!
Zidane was very depressed as he watched the team get going. As a professional player, he naturally knew that Gnabry was most likely faking it, but the referee didn't care about it. The player fell to the ground in cramps and pain and had to agree to the Arsenal doctor's entry according to the rules.

He spread his hands helplessly, his depression palpable.

He had a strong premonition of scoring goals in the previous consecutive attacks, but now that the rhythm is interrupted, he really doesn't know if the team can get back that feeling.

More than half a minute passed before Gnabry limped toward the sideline with the support of the team doctor to complete the substitution handover ceremony.

"Arsenal took the lead in making substitution adjustments. Walcott replaced Gnabry, who was physically weak. The 20-year-old German youngster performed well and completed the defensive tasks assigned by head coach Arsene Wenger very well in the hour he played. …”

Central 5 commentator He Wei saw the substitution electronic sign held high by the fourth official and said loudly.

"Papapapapaaa——"

At the same time, thunderous applause erupted over the Meazza stadium.

Although Gnabry did not perform well on the offensive end, everyone saw his enthusiasm on the defensive end, so they applauded this young player who only gradually gained opportunities at the end of the season.

Walcott entered the stadium and the director showed the camera to Zidane.

The meaning you want to express is relatively clear.

Wenger made adjustments first, will Zidane follow suit?
The lineup sent by Zidane is currently the strongest, and the ability and reputation of the players on the bench cannot shake the starting players.

Unless his physical fitness deteriorates, he does not plan to make substitutions.

Marcelo threw a frontcourt throw-in near the center line. Modric and Kroos organized the attack based on their personal control of the rhythm of the field to see if they could create a decent scoring opportunity.

Cristiano Ronaldo worked very hard. He dropped back to participate in the offensive organization as always when the opportunity was not good.

Although he was not continuously marked by Martin, his connection with his teammates on the ground was very stuck, and it was difficult to perfectly control the football in the air without physical contact.

Time passed by second by second, and soon it was seven and ten minutes.

Neither side created any decent opportunities during this period, and there were naturally very few shots that threatened the opponent's goal.

In addition, as half of the second half passed, the physical fitness of Real Madrid's starting players also declined, and the offensive rhythm began to slow down, allowing everyone to take a break.

Martin has a strong ability to capture opportunities. When he realized that Real Madrid was going to slow down, he deliberately increased the speed.

Gaining the opportunity to switch from defense to attack in positional battles, he no longer made quick decisions like before, but instead increased vertical passing.

The player receiving the ball does not need to make a complicated turn to meet the ball. Ramsey, Sanchez, Walcott or Giroud can actively respond and return the ball to Martin.

The reason for this is to force Real Madrid players to defend closely and create opportunities for teammates to join the attack.

In the 73rd minute of the game, Martin passed the football played by Walcott on the right side of the attack directly to the left side of the attack.

The wide range of non-stop ball transfers are extremely accurate. Monreal, who rarely advanced forward to participate in the attack in this game, advanced along the left sideline at high speed. He passed Martin's well-timed long pass in the direction of travel while running. By the way, he adjusted his steps and chose to cross quickly without giving Carvajal a chance to get closer.

Pepe, who was at the front, pushed the ball out of the baseline just to be on the safe side.

The quality of the corner kick taken by Sanchez was not good, and it went directly from the other side of the goal.

2 minutes later, Carvajal received an accurate transfer from Kroos on the right, made a slight adjustment and directly passed the ball to the back point.

Ronaldo's header from the back post went over the crossbar.

In the 77th minute, Martin got the ball in the middle and suddenly accelerated to break through Kroos and Modric, and then shot angrily before Casemiro was in place.

The kicked football was powerful and heavy, like a disemboweled cannonball.

Goalkeeper Navas reacted very quickly, but still did not touch the football.

Just when the Real Madrid fans' hearts were in their throats, a crisp 'bang' sound suddenly resounded throughout the audience.

"Fuck!"

The football hit the intersection between the right goal post and the crossbar and bounced out. Martin couldn't help but uttered the quintessence of Chinese culture.

Ramos, who was facing the goal, reacted very quickly. He headed the ball back and then defended Marcelo who came to the edge of the penalty area on the right and kicked the ball out of the sideline.

"Gatepost!"

He Wei, the CCTV commentator in the commentary box, said impassionedly: "Martin's outside shot hit the goal post. What a pity!"

"wowoowowooooo——"

The Arsenal fans' exclamations suddenly rang out over the stadium.

Wenger naturally raised his hands to hold his head, his face full of disbelief.

If a goal is scored at this juncture, it will greatly increase the team's possibility of winning the Champions League!
What a pity!

At the other end, Zidane took a deep breath and said decisively to his assistant Bettoni: "David, call Isco over."

The on-site director took advantage of Bellerin's opportunity to throw the throw-in before he could throw the ball in, and restored the highlights.

I saw Martin receiving a pass from Coquelin and taking advantage of the change in rhythm to suddenly accelerate, making consecutive stops.

Neither Kroos nor Modric reacted.

Take a long shot from the attacking right rib about 34 meters away from the goal.

The football flying into the air did not rotate at all. The five-star logo of the Champions League was clearly visible. The angle and strength were excellent. Navas in the picture stretched his body to the extreme and failed to touch the football.

The football hit the intersection between the crossbar and the right goal post, and the crisp muffled sound made the Real Madrid fans in front of the TV still feel in shock.

The trembling goal is still vivid in my mind.

One minute later, Real Madrid made adjustments.

Isco replaced Cross, whose physical decline affected defense.

In Zidane's view, Modric can do a lot of Kroos's tasks, but Modric's tasks are difficult for Kroos to do.

Replacing Isco was naturally not for defense.

In the final analysis, it is still offense.

Isco's dribbling ability can be said to be the best in the team.

Perhaps, it can bring a huge threat to Arsenal's defense at the end of the game.

……

It has to be said that Zidane's adjustment has some immediate effects.Isco, who consciously avoided Martin when dribbling, can be said to be prosperous, as if he was in no one's land.

In the 80th minute, his dribbling caused Coquelin to receive a yellow card, and also helped Real Madrid get a very crucial direct free kick about two meters on the right side of the top of the penalty area.

"In my position, both Cristiano Ronaldo and Bale can play."

Central 5 commentator He Wei said solemnly: "But I personally feel that there is a high probability that Real Madrid's number one star Cristiano Ronaldo will take the penalty."

Martin patted Coquelin on the shoulder and said in a loud voice: "It's okay, don't worry about it, Cristiano Ronaldo won't score anyway."

Cristiano Ronaldo, who came to the scene of the incident, heard clearly and felt a few crows flying over his head at high speed. He couldn't help but rolled his eyes at Martin and thought to himself, "Can't you just keep your voice down?"

Martin said this in front of Ronaldo. In addition to creating psychological pressure on the other party, the main reason is the serious consequences of the lockdown two years ago.

In the spring of 2014, Cristiano Ronaldo suffered a serious knee injury, but at that time, Real Madrid wanted to compete for the league championship and the Champions League championship, and there was a World Cup in the summer, so they chose the extreme method of closing down the team when they had no other choice.

Since then, his explosiveness has disappeared, and his knee injury has almost ruined his career. Fortunately, the transformation was successful.

In addition, his famous elevator free kick relies on the strength of his knee muscles, so elevator free kick goals after 2014 are rare.

Not long after, Cech arranged a human wall.

Cristiano Ronaldo stands on the left rear of the football like a compass, and Bale stands on the right rear of the football.

"beep~"

As Kaushoy blew the whistle, Bell took the lead, followed by Cristiano Ronaldo.

But Bell ran two steps and stopped in place. Ronaldo's right shoelace hit the middle of the football slightly lower.

Boom~
The muffled sound was crisp and clear, and the kick was powerful, but the flying height was not well controlled.

The football passed over the Arsenal wall at high speed and then continued to rise, far above the crossbar and flying out of the bottom line...

"hahahhaaaaaa——"

Ronaldo listened to the roar of laughter, pursed his lips and shook his head, looking with affectionate eyes, it was the second leg of the Champions League semi-final against Arsenal in the 2008-2009 season.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but shook his head.

He looked down at his right knee and sighed again.

Coquelin received a yellow card and was affected by a decline in physical fitness. He was replaced by Flamini in the 85th minute.

2 minutes later, Real Madrid made passive adjustments.

Carvajal was suspected of having a recurrence of an old injury. After being tested by the team doctor, he was replaced by Danilo.

“Both sides of the game made two adjustments.”

Central 5 commentator He Wei said loudly: "There are less than 3 minutes left in regular time. If we score a goal at this time, I think... it will definitely be a winner!"

It was getting closer and closer to the end of 10 and [-] minutes of regular time. Real Madrid, who had gained possession of the ball, played very carefully.

After receiving the ball, Isco originally wanted to break through, but from the corner of his eye he saw Martin staring at him eagerly. Instead of forcing a breakthrough, he chose to hand the ball to Modric.

After more than a dozen passes in a row, Danilo, who came on as a substitute, failed to pass the ball well due to pressure from Sanchez's defense. The ball was picked up by Cech in the small penalty area.

Benzema, who was grabbing the spot, had no time to brake and hit Cech.

The referee Kaushoy sounded the whistle, signaling Benzema to rush the goalkeeper.

When the time came to the 89th minute, Martin's offensive organization became extremely cautious.

He does still have plenty of physical fitness, but his teammates are stretched thin, and sometimes his passing and receiving without understanding the intention will lead to passing errors.

Real Madrid's quick counterattack is very successful. Once a mistake is made, it is equivalent to wasting the entire season's efforts.

"aoaoaooooooo—"

The fanatical atmosphere at San Siro became even crazier as the game came to the end of regular time, and huge chants continued like a tsunami.

Both Wenger and Zidane stood in their respective coaching technical areas, staring at the court with furrowed brows, for fear that the team would make a mistake at this stage.

Arsenal organized the attack in an orderly manner to see if they could create scoring opportunities.

While running in a wide area, Martin constantly signaled his teammates to pass the ball steadily, but in this level of competition and at critical moments, a tense situation eventually emerged.

Ramsey took one more step to adjust after receiving the ball, and the football was broken by Modric, who was at the peak of his career.

Flamini stepped forward immediately, and Modric quickly handed the ball to Casemiro. The latter had already shown his ability to switch from defense to offense quickly and accurately. He passed the ball directly to I Sco.

Martin knew that pushing forward at this time would be tantamount to handing over a large space behind him, so he quickly retreated to cope with all changes by remaining unchanged.

Isco saw that Martin didn't take the ball, so he didn't delay the opportunity and quickly moved to the right.

"Bell!"

The screen switched. Central 5 commentator He Wei looked at the Real Madrid player with the white No. 11 jersey who appeared on the camera, and his voice couldn't help but raise an octave.

Bale, who was near the midline, was waiting for this moment. Regardless of how many meters away Monreal was, he moved the football passed by Isco forward for more than [-] meters, and then went around to the outside of the sideline to overtake.

"Pass it to yourself three seconds later!"

Monreal knew that he was not as fast as Bale. When he turned around hastily, he made an obvious impact and tried to knock Bale down.

But Bale's speed had already fully increased, and his body was very strong. He knocked Monreal away abruptly, staggered a few steps, adjusted his center of gravity, and pounced on the football without losing speed.

The referee Kaushoy held the whistle in his mouth and saw the staggering Bell approaching the football at high speed. He ran quickly while raising his hands flat, indicating that it was favorable for the offensive game to continue.

Left center back Koscielny did not expect Bell to adjust his steps so quickly. As he got closer and closer to the football, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and use his huge inertia to shovel the football that was rolling toward the baseline along the right sideline.

Bell, who was full of speed, was like white lightning passing by the sideline. He took the lead and poked the ball out with the toes of his left foot, and then took off to avoid Koscielny's two consecutive kicks in the air.

Martin, who returned to defense at high speed, shouted: "Pell! Gogogo!"

Mertesacker decisively stepped forward and got stuck in the path of Bell's cutback, leaving Martin to defend in the middle.

"aoaooaoaoooo—"

The Real Madrid fans in the audience became excited.

Arsenal fans' hearts were in their throats.

"Three hit three!"

Sky commentator Andy Gray's voice rose an octave.

At the same time, the fourth official held up the electronic sign indicating three minutes of injury time.

But no one noticed this.

Because everyone in the world was holding their breath and watching Real Madrid's quick counterattack.

Bell, who caught up with the football again, was about 30 meters away from the baseline. He took a small step towards the inside line and passed the football with his left foot to Benzema in the middle.

Martin, who wanted to go up and commit a foul, suddenly had an idea and felt that it was a scam.

as predicted!

Benzema, who seemed to be catching the ball, passed the ball over, switched positions, and ran from the center to the left rib. Ronaldo, who was originally on the left rib, stopped and walked in.

Martin gave up his plan to defend, and retreated while fighting, maintaining a safe distance.

With Ronaldo's consciousness, he will definitely pass the ball when he steps forward, and there will really be nothing he can do at that time.

Moreover, he had a wide field of vision and consciously leaned to the left. From the corner of his eye, he had already caught Bell diagonally inserting in, preventing Ronaldo from passing the ball to Bell in advance.

However, many times the plan may not come true, and what awaits is... another kind of death.

Ronaldo, who had lost his explosive power, had no confidence to break through Martin. He took a step and quickly passed the ball into the space behind Martin and Mertesacker according to the counterattack tactics formulated before the game.

"Oops!"

Martin's heart skipped a beat when he saw Ronaldo passing the ball.

Bell, who had previously sent a pass, accelerated towards the ribs. Mertesacker, who was 1.9 meters tall, turned around at the same speed as a 60-year-old grandfather. He could only watch helplessly as the opponent used his speed to forcefully rush past the inside line. .

Martin worked very hard and ran at full speed. He was very anxious, thinking that he might still be able to catch up.

Unfortunately, Bell felt very good in handling the ball with his first kick. He stopped and stepped, adjusted his steps, and did not give Martin, who was getting closer, a chance to get closer. He directly completed a very high-quality kick on the right side of the top of the arc in the penalty area. Low shot.

The kicked football was close to the ground, the ball was very fast, and went straight to the lower left corner of the goal.

Martin, who was looking at the goal, watched the fast-rolling football pass by even faster than Cech's diving save, and his beautiful eyes were instantly replaced by despair.

"Goooooooooooooooal—"

"Real Madrid classic counterattack!"

"Gareth Bale! Real Madrid hero!"

"Oh My God!"

"Lore!!"

……

The football hit the snow-white net, and the commentators in the on-site commentary box became extremely crazy.
