Chapter 238 The point-control boss!The secret of defeating Barcelona [a big chapter with ten thousand words, please beg to subscribe]

Noon on August 9, Calderon Stadium, Madrid.

In the third round of La Liga, Atletico Madrid faced Barcelona at home.

At the beginning of the game, Barcelona turned the away game and launched a crazy attack.

Henry and Eto'o continued to take long shots about 20 meters away from the goal, but failed to break Cech's goal.

But in the 3rd minute, Van der Vaart was on the left side of the penalty area. After receiving a pass from Harvey, he deftly got rid of Baraja and sent a wonderful through ball with his left foot.

Like a scalpel, the football quickly cut through Atletico Madrid's defense and landed on the left side of the penalty area.

After Ronaldinho leaned on Lucio with his body, he turned his back to the baseline, cleverly raised the ball with his right foot, dropped it to his left, turned around deftly, and volleyed with his right foot.

Although Lucio flew to block it, he was still a step slow.

The entire Calderon stadium was filled with exclamations of surprise.

At the critical moment, Cech flew to block the ball.

But the ball was still in Atletico's penalty area.

Eto'o on the right forced Evra away with his body. After grabbing the ball, Evra pressed him step by step. After being forced to take him out of the penalty area, when he was about to take it back, he suddenly crossed the ball to the baseline. Suddenly he caught up with a lunge and passed the ball low with his right foot.

Evra reacted and chased after him, but it was too late to block it.

Just half a step away!
Henry and Pepe in the middle were fighting for it at the same time, but in the end Henry took the lead and sent the ball into Atletico Madrid's goal.

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"

"Henry!!Henry!!!"

"This is Henry's first official goal since joining Barcelona!!"

"From the French striker, Henry!"

"In just 3 minutes, Henry opened the door to victory for Barcelona!"

After the goal, Henry rushed out of the stadium excitedly, cheering all the way.

Eto'o, Ronaldinho and others also chased after him.

In front of the visiting team's coaching bench, Rijkaard and Tenkat cheered loudly, and the Dutch Black Swan even roared to the sky with excitement.

Finally scored Atletico Madrid's goal!

And the opening only lasts 3 minutes!

God!Lady Luck!
You finally see me! ! !

Rijkaard was so excited, even more excited than scoring the goal himself.

He has coached Barcelona for three years. Do you know how he has spent these three years?
Today, he will return all the resentment and hatred accumulated in the past three years to Yang Hao in this stadium!
He wants Yang Hao to let everyone know that from now on, La Liga no longer belongs to Atletico Madrid!

But it belongs to us Barcelona!

……

Yang Hao shook his head as he watched from the sidelines, turned around and walked back.

"Barcelona are so brave tonight!" Yang Hao smiled bitterly.

An obvious signal is that after taking the lead, Barcelona continued to attack.

Yang Hao now had to admit that Barcelona was really brave tonight.

"The partnership between Van der Vaart and Xavi, as you said before, is really good. We really may not be able to suppress them in possession of the ball." Juanma Lillo said.

Yang Hao's midfielders for this game are Kaká, Baraja and Xabi Alonso.

This is also for the sake of safety, because the combination of Ronaldinho, Henry and Eto'o is really quite luxurious.

In Yang Hao's words, there is almost nothing these three guys can do if they work together.

The only thing that is weaker is probably breaking through dense defenses.

But Ronaldinho had a fantastic free kick and Henry had a good free kick too.

The key is that the personal abilities of these three are also super strong.

But Yang Hao is not a coward like Mourinho. He will not adopt the defensive tactics. This is not his style.

Besides, with Atletico Madrid's current defensive level, they can't defend even if they set up an iron barrel formation.

Yang Hao was ready to lose the ball.

But the problem is, on the court, these gangsters from Atletico Madrid throw things away too hastily and without a sense of ceremony, right?
I'm not even ready yet, and you guys dropped the ball. Is that ridiculous?

"Harvey!"

Yang Hao walked to the sidelines and called Xavi Alonso.

When the latter looked over, he gestured towards Xabi Alonso.

Before the game, he had fully communicated with the players, and everyone knew how he wanted to play the game.

Before the game, when he saw Barcelona's roster, Yang Hao had already told them very clearly that they would play Oleg's side first tonight.

I just didn't expect that Barcelona would be the first to attack after the start.

Xabi Alonso quickly understood his manager's intentions.

In the past, when many teams played against Barcelona, ​​they would press Xavi, lock Ronaldinho, and beat Van Bronckhorst.

But since this season, Barcelona's entire tactics have been adjusted.

I can't hold Harvey down anymore.

Because Barcelona introduced Rosicky and Van der Vaart in one go, Xavi has an extra helper beside him.

Xavi's side is liberated, and Ronaldinho's side is also starting to break free of its shackles.

In this game, Yang Hao started with Baraja and still wanted to restrict Ronaldinho and Van der Vaart.

But things in this world always have two sides.

There are more superstars in the frontcourt, especially after the center has been revitalized, and the left wing has begun to use offense instead of defense, so there seems to be no big problem.

But if you press the gourd and the gourd floats, there will be a problem on the right side.

Barcelona's front trident basically does not participate in the return defense. The distance between Belletti on the right and Eto'o in the front court is a bit wide.

Belletti is good at attacking, but after he steps forward, he can never come back in time.

For example, in the game against Werder Bremen, his right wing was frequently beaten.

Even though the final score was 2-0, Barcelona won completely, but that was thanks to those forwards in the Bundesliga who stretched their hips. Otherwise, Barcelona might not be able to escape unscathed.

In this case, facing Atletico Madrid, Rijkaard made adjustments and replaced Belletti with Oleg, who had better defensive ability.

But then, the problem changed again.

Oleg is 1 meters tall. He is a central defender and can also play as a right back. However, he is not fast and his body is not flexible enough. If he plays on the wing, he will be easily exposed when he encounters players with excellent speed.

It can be said that he is a player with very obvious shortcomings.

Because of this, he didn't dare to press too hard. If Belletti couldn't come back, then he wouldn't be able to come back.

This caused the distance between Barcelona's right back and Eto'o in front to be a bit wide, or even out of touch.

One of the targeted tactics Yang Hao arranged before the game was to attack Oleg.

Of course, it would be better if Oleg dared to press forward.

The gesture he gave to Xabi Alonso just now was to remind Xavi Alonso not to forget the arrangements before the game.

……

Inside the stadium, the game is still going on and Barcelona is still attacking.

Barcelona's attack is mainly from the left.

When Van Bronckhorst lobbed the ball into the penalty area from a long pass, it was cleared with a header from Pepe and was pushed out.

Atletico Madrid also quickly adjusted and quickly launched an attack.

After Robben got rid of Mexican central defender Marcos on the right side of the front court, he hit a long shot with his left foot, which was saved by Valdes.

Despite conceding a goal at the beginning, Atletico Madrid quickly stabilized their position and gradually regained the situation.

Both teams played more open and faster.

And in the 17th minute, Eto'o saw that Oleg had not intervened and had to retreat to receive Xavi's pass.

But he didn't notice that Ribery was quietly coming from behind him.

Evra and Ribery fought back and forth, and Kaka cut off Eto'o's passing line to Xavi.

The three Atletico Madrid players formed a small double-team from the center line to the left side of their own half.

Evra stole the ball from Eto'o and passed it to Ribery.

When the Frenchman passed Eto'o and dribbled the ball laterally, Kaka near the center circle had already started sprinting.

Eto'o and Xavi caught up with Ribery at the same time and counterattacked nearby.

But Ribery reacted quickly enough. When dribbling the ball laterally, he saw Kaká's sprint route. Before Xavi and Eto'o could get closer, he quickly sent a through ball.

"Atletico Madrid's counterattack hit their left wing."

Kaka is moving forward quickly, while Barcelona's defense is constantly returning to defend, especially Oleg.

Eto'o chased after him desperately, but Kaka's every step was very big, giving people the feeling that the ball would lose control at any time.

Oleg ran all the way back. When he saw Eto'o chasing him and he was in front of Kaka, the Barcelona defender tried to rush over and force Kaka to slow down.

In fact, he couldn't help but think in his mind: This stupid Brazilian, in pursuit of speed, takes such a long step with every step, let me snatch the ball away and let him go to hell!

With such an idea, Oleg quickly changed his route and began to approach Kaka's route diagonally.

Especially after seeing Kaka take a kick, he immediately realized the opportunity and stretched his foot to steal the ball.

Even if it doesn't work, destroy the ball.

But when he was about to stretch his legs, he suddenly discovered that Kaka had accelerated.

Oleg was shocked.

It turns out that Kaka deliberately slowed down just now to lure him to grab the ball.

When he went to grab the ball, Kaka suddenly accelerated and caught up with the ball he had thrown out faster than before. He took the lead and stabbed the ball to the baseline, avoiding Oleg quickly.

The Barcelona defender was completely confused.

The moment he stepped out, his whole body slowed down, making him unable to catch up.

The entire Calderon Stadium was boiling.

All Atletico Madrid fans cheered.

This is Kaka!
Simple, direct and brutal!
He just used speed and rhythm changes to forcefully kill Oleg.

So cool!
After Kaka caught up with the ball passed by him on the left side of the penalty area, he saw Puyol chasing him. He immediately made another big kick and walked to the bottom line. He caught up to the bottom line as quickly as possible and grabbed the ball. Before Puyol, he crossed the center with his left foot.

He knew that Torres would be able to keep up with him!
This is a tacit understanding!
Kaka, on the other hand, couldn't hold back the momentum and rushed out, holding the billboard on the sidelines with both hands before stopping.

When Kaka turned his head, he saw Torres landing in the middle of the small penalty area, and the football was already in the goal line behind Valdes.

All the Atletico Madrid fans were cheering crazily!

beep!
The referee blows the whistle for a goal.

But Torres could no longer care about this, and he quickly rushed out of the stadium and rushed towards Kaká.

The two hugged each other on the sidelines.

"Atletico equalized the score!"

"In the 17th minute, Kaka sent a cross from the left, and Torres hit a header from the center of the penalty area, equalizing the score for Atletico Madrid, 1-1!"

"Now, both sides are back on the same starting line."

"Let's take a look at the goal."

"Kaka's sudden attack with the ball was very beautiful, especially the speed he used to eat Oleg alive."

"The Barcelona defender really made a big mistake. When he was able to catch up with Kaká, didn't he have doubts about why Kaká was so slow tonight?"

"Atletico Madrid's offensive cooperation tore apart Barcelona's defense, and it was from Oleg's side!"

Yang Hao also applauded his players vigorously on the sidelines.

Oleg has always been a player with very obvious advantages and disadvantages. I am afraid that many Barcelona fans will not deny that this kid does not look like a Barcelona player at all.

This is correct, because he himself is not from the Barcelona youth training. He only transferred from Gramnet in 01.

But this kid is very important among Barcelona fans.

This weight is not based on his performance on the field, but because he is a Catalan independent.

After his performance last season, when Spain was short of players on the right, the call for him to be selected for the national team was quite high.

But when the media asked him if he would consider joining the national team, his response was: "Out of respect for Aragones, I will make a statement when the time comes."

And everyone feels that he is likely to declare his refusal to play for the national team when he is called up.

Aragones didn't want to lose face, so he simply didn't recruit him.

In Yang Hao's previous life, Oleg was much better off the court than he was on the court. He was very active in participating in some independent activities in Catalonia. After retiring, he even became a candidate for the Catalan Parliament. List.

Therefore, despite Oleg's poor performance on the court, he is very popular among the Catalan media and fans.

Barcelona just kept him.

Of course, this is a matter of the next few years.

Oleg is doing pretty well now.

After the team equalized, Yang Hao's adjustment was to start implementing the plan deployed before the game.

……

After the 1-1 draw, the game returned to balance.

Both teams began to press aggressively, and at the same time they were constantly organizing and planning attacks.

After a slight adjustment, in the 25th minute, the two teams began to increase the pace again.

Barcelona took the lead. After Xavi stole the ball near the center line, he quickly passed the ball to Henry.

The French winger used his body to hold Lucio and then dribbled the ball forward.

But who is Lucio?
Henry couldn't get past him no matter how hard he tried, so he shot a long shot, but Cech caught the ball easily.

Atletico Madrid quickly counterattacked.

Just 2 minutes later, Xabi Alonso sent a long pass to the left side of the frontcourt.

After Ribery unloaded the ball, facing Oleg, he cut inside with the ball and suddenly kicked off on the left side of the penalty area.

The shot was also saved by Valdes.

But just 1 minute later, Ribery and Kaká cooperated again on the left. Ribery dribbled the ball and cut inward, and Kaká suddenly crossed the left. After the two completed a reverse run, Kaká was in The left corner of the penalty area received a backheel pass from Ribery.

Puyol followed up in time to fill the position and blocked Kaka's way.

The two formed a one-on-one situation in the left corner of the penalty area.

Kaka tried to cut inside, but suddenly turned around and went outside, running straight into the bottom line along the left side of the penalty area, trying to get into the penalty area from here.

But Puyol was very experienced and quickly turned around and stayed close to Kaká.

Kaka is very fast, but Puyol is not slow either.

Just as he was about to cross the baseline, Kaka made an emergency stop and smashed the ball with his left foot, trying to pass Puyol.

Facing a star of Kaká's level, Puyol must exert all his strength to barely keep up, whether he is accelerating or otherwise.

But once he exerted all his strength, he was very passive in the face of such a sudden emergency stop.

Calculating mentally but not intentionally, defensive players are always passive.

Therefore, when Puyol wanted to follow Kaka and make an emergency stop, his foot slipped and he fell into the penalty area.

But the Barcelona captain was also a thief. When he slipped, he saw Kaká trying to dunk the ball over him. He immediately stretched out his hands and did not touch the ball, but grabbed Kaká's jersey.

It looked like a panicked subconscious action, and Kaka was immediately grabbed to the ground.

But Kaká just stooped, and when he slipped and was about to get up to grab the football that was close at hand, Puyol made a move, quickly got up, and knocked the ball out of bounds with his feet.

"Handball! Handball!"

Kaka raised his hands high and gestured towards the referee.

But the referee was a little far away, and his line of sight was blocked by Puyol's body. He waved his hand towards Kaka, indicating that the game should continue.

……

The two teams just went back and forth like this, playing tit-for-tat.

The pace of the game was fast, and neither side played conservatively, but it was very intense, and no one was able to create any good opportunities.

In the 30th minute of Barcelona, ​​Oleg made a forward pass from the right and sent a good pass to Eto'o. The latter broke into the right side of the penalty area and kicked the goal, but was saved by Cech.

The Czech goalkeeper's current position selection is very precise.

Atletico Madrid also played offense.

Xabi Alonso once again made a long pass to the left. After Ribery got rid of Oleg with the ball, he passed it back to Torres.

Torres faced Xavi, stopped the ball, moved it horizontally, and fired another furious shot.

But the shot was blocked sideways by Marcos and hit the Mexican central defender.

As the game progressed, the struggle between the two teams became more and more stalemate, and there was even some inextricable momentum.

The ball possession rate is 53% vs. 47%, which is not a big difference.

The number of shots and attacks is about the same.

Barcelona's front three don't cooperate very well, but Henry was also very active in this game, obviously a change from before, and he cooperated much better with Eto'o and Ronaldinho. .

And in the 43rd minute, Atletico Madrid once again stole the ball near the midline.

After Xavi Alonso glanced ahead, he passed the ball long to the left again.

Throughout the first half, Atletico Madrid almost caught Oleg at this point.

Especially Ribery, who specifically targeted Oleg and kept hitting him.

At this time, Torres was at the front and Kaká was slightly behind, but the Spaniard chose to rush to the left and approached Ribery. Kaká understood the idea and turned in a direction, turning to the right rib, diagonally inserting the point. To the right of the ball point, he raised his right hand high and shouted, "Frank!"

When Ribery dribbled the ball to the left side of the penalty area, Oleg and Edmilson both flanked him at the same time, blocking Ribery's passing route.

But Evra stepped in from the left.

After Ribery blocked Oleg and Edmilson with the ball, he distributed the ball to the left.

Evra sent a diagonal cross with his left foot.

When the attention of defensive players such as Puyol and Marcos fell on Torres at the forward point, they could only watch as Evra's diagonal pass flew over their heads and landed in the small penalty area. Right.

At this time, Kaka rushed over, faced Evra's pass, and headed directly to the goal from the right side of the small penalty area. “GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!”

"In the 43th minute, Kaka scored another victory!"

"2 to 1!"

"Atletico Madrid reversed the score!"

"Kaká has scored in three consecutive games!"

The entire Calderon Stadium was filled with enthusiasm.

More than 5 Atletico Madrid fans rushed out crazily, cheering excitedly.

Kaka pointed his hands in the sky, prayed constantly, and then celebrated heartlessly towards the fans in the stands.

……

In Yang Hao's previous life, when he was coding and writing articles, he once wrote about Barcelona and read many related books.

Many of them have discussed one point, that is, Barcelona's ball control system is inherited from the Netherlands.

Their passing and receiving have a common feature, which is the triangle pass.

This is literally what it means, three players forming a triangle, constantly passing back and forth, adding another player at any time to form another, or even forming several triangles at the same time.

This makes Barcelona's passing and possession system like a dense net.

But later, Yang Hao discovered that many teams actually use the triangle pass. This is fundamental.

When any three people on the court cooperate, isn't it a triangle pass?

But why can't they play the kind of cooperation that Barcelona does?
Gradually, Yang Hao discovered a "secret".

This is a "secret" that belongs to Barcelona and that others cannot or are unwilling to learn.

As Yang Hao said before, the starting point of everything in Barcelona is to control the ball.

Passing is also about controlling the ball.

The same is true for triangular passes.

But what is the difference between Barcelona's triangle pass and other teams' triangle pass?

Because every move their players make is for better ball control.

In his previous life, Yang Hao had seen interviews with some famous European coaches. They had always believed that Barcelona had no so-called defensive system at all.

As long as their ball control system can be broken, the defense will fall apart.

At that time, Yang Hao felt very strange, why did Barcelona not have a defensive system?
Strictly speaking, it’s not that we don’t have it, but that we don’t pay attention to it.

At the end of the day, it’s about controlling the ball.

Barcelona regards possession of the ball as their life. Players run on the field to control the ball. They are almost always running around the ball, constantly forming various passing and controlling combinations. Three people are a triangle pass, and four people are two. A triangle transfer...

But there's a problem.

Take this game as an example. Suppose Harvey and Van der Vaart are missing one person, and Edmilson runs over to form a triangle.

OK, got the ball this time.

Generally speaking, after completion, as a defensive midfielder, Edmilson should return to his position, right?

But at this moment, Xavi and Eto'o on the right are also missing someone, and Atletico Madrid is pressing for this area.

If it were any other team, they definitely wouldn't be able to do it.

The midfielder must quickly go back to protect the defense.

But not Barcelona.

Edmilson should run over to join forces, form a triangle, and control the ball again.

Defensive midfielder?
It doesn't matter, as long as the ball is under our control and the midfielder is there or not, does it matter?

Found it?

Barcelona's tactical system exists for possession of the ball, and everything they do is for possession of the ball.

In this case, their players are running to control the ball and can even ignore the defensive order.

Why don't other teams learn from this?
Because the concepts are different, we can’t learn from each other.

Moreover, the risk of learning is too high, and it can easily turn into something different.

In the years before and after the century, the reason why Barcelona played like that was because of this kind of chaos.

In order to keep the ball, their players ignored the defensive order, resulting in a poor defense.

Think about it again, is Guardiola's team the same?
Is this what the so-called position blurring is?

In fact, Rijkaard's Barcelona is not the purest Barcelona yet.

Baptista couldn't fit into Barcelona last season, and that's where he came from.

He can't learn from Barcelona at all. His playing habits, consciousness and tactical literacy have been different since he was a child.

But Van der Vaart can.

Because he is from the Netherlands.

Of course, just now was an example, Edmilson couldn't really be running around.

Therefore, in Barcelona's tactical system, the 4th position is very important.

Everyone and all positions can be blurred. Even the central defender can be pulled to the wing at any time to serve as a full-back. Only the fourth position must always stay in that position.

That is the only order in Barcelona's entire chaotic defensive system.

This is why Guardiola would rather use Busquets than Yaya Toure.

Yang Hao feels that in Barcelona's tactical system, the No. 4 position is like an anchor point, holding back the Barcelona ship.

In Atletico Madrid's tactical system, position 4 is like a beacon, allowing everyone to quickly find their way back to defense after grabbing the ball and cooperating.

Yes, when Atletico Madrid switches from offense to defense, except for the players who are nearby to counterattack, everyone else needs to return to defense.

So, isn’t it very clear how to beat Barcelona?

……

During the halftime break, Yang Hao told the players that there were many things they didn't do well enough in the first half.

Including when players switch from defense to offense, they still don't play fast enough.

"In the second half, our offense after grabbing the ball had to be a little faster."

"Don't think about possession of the ball. We don't need those possessions. We have to play fast. As long as we are fast, we will have a chance."

"Also, Kaka, Frank."

Yang Hao looked at Ribery and Kaká, "In the second half it's up to you to attack Oleg."

"Boss, what will Barcelona do if they replace Belletti?" Kaká asked.

Yang Hao smiled slightly, shook his head and said: "I don't think Rijkaard will go up to Belletti. Although Belletti is faster, if he really goes up, it doesn't matter."

After a pause, Yang Hao looked at Ribery, "Frank, are you afraid of him?"

"I'll kill him!" Ribery replied without hesitation.

Everyone suddenly burst into laughter.

"Okay."

Yang Hao applauded vigorously.

"As I said before, we don't care about possession of the ball. Don't compete with them. If they like to possess the ball, let them possess it. We will set up in the midline area and apply pressure as soon as we come over and compete for it."

"Their formation will become loose when they are under pressure and want to ensure possession of the ball. Then after we steal the ball, we will quickly attack their weak links."

"any questions?"

"no!"

Before the game, everything that needs to be said has been said and everything that needs to be prepared has been prepared.

Before the players took the field, Yang Hao even had a private chat with Maicon and Baraja.

Both players were the most tired tonight.

Needless to say, Maicon didn't move forward the whole time tonight and was always on guard against Ronaldinho and Van Bronckhorst.

Baraja is also wary of Ronaldinho and Van der Vaart.

The pressure is on both players.

"If we work harder in the second half, we will definitely win!" Yang Hao encouraged.

……

After changing sides in the second half, Atletico Madrid took the lead from the start.

In the 47th minute, when Barcelona advanced to the midline, Atletico began to put pressure.

After Torres intercepted Edmilson's pass, he quickly passed to the left side of the penalty area.

Ribery used his speed to break through Oleg and broke into the left side of the penalty area. After receiving a pass from Torres, when he kicked the goal, he was blocked by Puyol who returned to defense in time.

corner kick.

Lucio's header hit the crossbar.

This attack shocked everyone in Barcelona into a cold sweat.

Rijkaard also immediately realized Yang Hao's midfield adjustments.

The rhythm is still very fast, but Atletico Madrid obviously no longer presses in the frontcourt, but concentrates more troops near the midline.

As soon as Barcelona got close, they grabbed the ball and immediately counterattacked after grabbing the ball.

This style of play is quite Atletico Madrid.

However, sometimes, Atletico will press forward.

In the 53rd minute, Torres even rushed to the Barcelona goal, forcing Valdes, who was receiving a pass from his teammate, to quickly hug the ball and lie down on the grass, holding the ball under him. .

2 minutes later, Rijkaard made his first substitution.

Giuly replaced Edmilson.

Yang Hao was slightly stunned, but he didn't expect Barcelona to have a hidden agenda.

After the substitutions, Giuly served as the right winger, Eto'o returned to the center, and Henry played on the left.

Ronaldinho appeared in the middle, Van der Vaart assisted Ronaldinho, and Xavi trailed behind.

Position [-], this is Harvey's specialty.

Yang Hao stood on the sidelines. He could clearly see that Ronaldinho and the Barcelona stars in the frontcourt were actually actively trying to attack, especially Ronaldinho, who had a strong desire to attack. .

He is competing with Adriano and Kaka for the Ballon d'Or.

He wanted to suppress Kaka in this direct dialogue.

What better opportunity to prove yourself and defeat your opponents than this?
How hard are Brazilians?
He even fouled Lucio during a counterattack in the frontcourt and received a yellow card.

Lucio didn't have a good temper, so he directly contradicted him.

Two teammates from the Brazilian national team had a few words, but luckily they didn't get into a fight.

You can see the tension and fierce atmosphere in the venue.

In the 59th minute, Ribery once again forced Oleg on the left, creating a very good opportunity, but the center failed to follow up in time.

Then Evra also received a pass from Ribery on the left and sent a cross.

Torres followed up in the middle and when his header hit the goal, it was slightly too high.

If the first half was still evenly matched, but the situation was relatively stalemate, then in the second half, Barcelona's ball possession rate improved significantly, but Atletico Madrid made more threatening attacks.

It's a bit like both sides are getting what they need.

And in the 65th minute, Van Bronckhorst moved forward to the left. When cooperating with Ronaldinho, Baraja, Maicon, and Xavi Alonso formed a defense outside the penalty area. When Ronaldinho passed the ball, Baraja made a tackle, successfully tackled the ball, and quickly passed it to Kaká.

Kaka doesn't even need to put it into gear, he starts directly and drives forward with the ball.

Harvey was in hot pursuit, but he couldn't stop Kaka.

After crossing the center line, Kaka quickly distributed the ball to the right.

Yes, Atletico Madrid, who had been playing on the left and attacking Oleg the whole game, suddenly played on the right this time.

Robben dribbled the ball to the right corner of Barcelona's penalty area at great speed. When facing Marcos one-on-one, when he was about to go to the baseline, he suddenly spiked the ball and cut inside. He suddenly threw away the Mexican defender and cut inside with the ball. He rushed to the right side of the top area and suddenly hit a curve ball that hit the upper left corner of the goal.

Valdez was beyond his reach.

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"

"In the 65th minute, Robben scored another victory!"

"3 to 1!"

"It was a quick counterattack from Atletico."

"Kaka's quick dribbling was so fast that Xavi couldn't catch up with him."

"There is also Robben's cut in from the right, a face-to-face, continuous small steps and body feints. After getting rid of Marcos, he cut in to the right rib and directly kicked the goal."

"A really wonderful counterattack."

"This is Atletico's attack."

"After the second half, we can see that Atletico Madrid plays more concisely, but also more threatening."

"This obviously comes from Yang Hao's midfield adjustment."

"3 to 1!"

"The current situation is very unfavorable for Barcelona."

"There are more than 20 minutes left. Let's see if Rijkaard will make any more adjustments?"

……

As it turned out, Rijkaard took no more chances.

Replacing Edmilson affected Barcelona's midfield and backcourt.

After losing the ball, Rijkaard made his second substitution in the 68th minute, replacing Henry with Rosicky.

This is more like a training exercise.

After Henry came down, Ronaldinho went to the left, and Rosicky, Van der Vaart and Xavi formed the midfield.

The midfield combination of three technical players is quite interesting.

But Yang Hao also made adjustments immediately.

Messi replaced Robben, who scored a goal, in the 70th minute.

The Argentinian youngster received a warm welcome from Atletico Madrid fans when he came on the field.

As his performance gets better and better, Atletico Madrid fans like him more and more.

Who doesn't love a young talent like this?
Especially their own youth training.

After Ronaldinho returned to the left, he used his personal ability more to dribble the ball.

He actually caused several fouls by Atletico Madrid players outside the penalty area and created free kicks for Barcelona in the frontcourt, but in the end he failed to score again.

After Messi came on the field, in the 78th minute, he once broke through with the ball on his right rib, threw away the defensive player, and sent a wonderful pass on the right side of the penalty area.

Torres made a diagonal pass to the right side of the penalty spot and hit the goal, but Valdes fought hard to save it.

After that, both teams made substitutions one after another, but in the end, no one scored again.

……

When the referee blew the whistle to end the game, more than 5 fans in the entire Calderon Stadium stood up and gave the players in the stadium the warmest applause.

Especially Kaka.

In the stands, many Atletico Madrid fans raised cards to form a huge Ballon d'Or Tifo, with Kaka's name engraved on it. This was a gift from Atletico Madrid fans to Kaka, and it was also a tribute to him. An encouragement.

Kaká and all his teammates, accompanied by captain Baraja, went to every stand to interact with the Atletico Madrid fans at the scene, thanking them for coming to the scene, and also thanking the fans for their support!

"Let's congratulate Atletico!"

"It was a great matchup, very tight."

"Atletico Madrid suffered a heavy setback at the beginning, but with the goals of Kaká, Torres and Robben, they reversed Barcelona 3-1 and scored 3 points again!"

"At the same time, we would also like to congratulate Kaká for winning the match against Ronaldinho, which was hailed as the Golden Ball Battle by countless fans."

"Tonight, Kaká's performance was really outstanding, showing us his desire to score goals and win."

"We also have reason to believe that Kaka is the number one favorite for this year's Ballon d'Or and World Footballer of the Year awards!"

Amid the cheers of the audience, Yang Hao slowly came to the visiting team's coaching bench and shook hands with Rijkaard and Tenkat.

But they didn't have a good relationship with each other, so after just a few simple greetings, Yang Hao turned around and left.

After winning this game, Atletico Madrid won 3 consecutive victories in the new season and continued to lead the La Liga standings.

Barcelona currently has one win, one draw and one loss, ranking 9th in La Liga.

Real Madrid defeated Espanyol 1-0 in an away game and scored 6 points, ranking fifth.

In this round, Barcelona is visiting Madrid and Real Madrid is visiting Barcelona.

As a result, both Madrid teams emerged victorious.

Yang Hao can completely guess what the news will be tomorrow.

Atletico Madrid is also the only team with three consecutive wins in La Liga this season.

But the real test has just begun.

The next fourth round of La Liga is in midweek. After the fifth round, Atletico Madrid will fly to London and visit Highbury Stadium to challenge Arsenal. This is another strong dialogue.

As Yang Hao told Kaka before, playing a strong dialogue is more convincing than playing 5 other games.

Therefore, if you really want to help Kaka hit the golden goal, you have to win Arsenal.

More importantly, the Gunners are Atletico Madrid's top rival in qualifying for first place in the Champions League group.

Although losing Henry and Ashley Cole, Wenger's team is still not weak.

Robin van Persie filled Thierry Henry's position, with Clichy replacing Ashley Cole on the left.

Wenger's every step was carefully calculated.

Yang Hao feels that Wenger is like a point-control boss, so every time after selling the captain, he can steadily control the team in the top four of the Premier League and the top 16 of the Champions League.

Such an opponent should never be careless.

 Regarding Garvey, I think Barcelona has more to blame, and the national team must also be scolded. Especially in recent years, Barcelona has really been a bit... how should I put it? towards these young players.Just like how Bayern squeezed Hargreaves so hard... It's really a bit outrageous. It's one thing to have no money to sign, but it can't be used like this. I even wonder if there will be some in football in the future. Youth Protection Act or something to avoid being like Barcelona...
