Football: Starting from the Ronaldo Template

Chapter 204 Ronaldo’s tomahawk header, the flagrant foul on the court, Chu Feng’s God of War descending to earth!

“The following introduces you to the starting lineups of the two teams!”

"The one wearing the white jersey is Real Madrid. Zidane formed a 4-3-1-2 formation. The goalkeeper:."

"This is Real Madrid's most frequently used formation and it relies heavily on the performance of the overall players, especially the excellent form of the two full-backs."

"When the players are in poor condition, this formation not only lacks power, but also leads to an imbalance in the team."

“For example, in the Champions League group stage, Real Madrid went 1-3 against Tottenham, and their midfield and backcourt were riddled with holes by young opponents. They continued to slump in the second half of the league, and were once in a position where their qualification for the Champions League was in doubt. "

"But everything turned around in the Champions League 1/8 finals. Zidane began to reuse Asensio and Vazquez. Real Madrid won the PSG cleanly and achieved a soul-stirring victory in an extremely difficult situation. In one fell swoop, the team’s mental decline for more than half a season was reversed.”

Zhan Jun gave a brief introduction, and the bias in his words was obvious.

But he really cannot be absolutely neutral. After all, there is Chinese player Chu Feng in the Manchester United team, and what he said is true.

"The one wearing the red jersey is Manchester United. Mourinho picked up the 4-3-3 formation that he once abandoned. The goalkeeper:"

Two consecutive large swings, followed by a shoulder-sinking change of direction, suddenly started to break through from the outside!

So he decided to do it himself.

Zhan Jun couldn't help but feel a little happy.

"Of course, football is not only a tactical competition, but also a confrontation between players. Real Madrid undoubtedly has the advantage in personal ability. It depends on whether they can turn their advantage into goals."

With the referee's whistle.

"Coupled with Pogba, who has strong ability to push forward and escape, and Lukaku, who can pull wide and gradually improve his fulcrum ability, opponents will not know which of the two strong points in Manchester United's frontcourt should be blocked."

You must know that there are many long-range shooting experts in the Real Madrid team.

"On the right side, the focus is on defense. Both Lingard and Herrera have good mobility and can restrict Ronaldo and Marcelo."

In Mourinho's 4-3-3 system, the left wing is the absolute core of the offense. He must use his personal ability to open up the situation.

And Manchester United are rock solid.

"Smash the ball past Carvajal again!"

Want to know how strong Carvajal is?

Zhan Jun said a lot of words in one breath, seeming to convince himself that Manchester United had a chance.

Their goal before the game was to delay, drag the game into overtime as much as possible, and finally win through a penalty shootout.

Modric pounced fiercely.

The game officially begins!

Real Madrid did not rush forward after kick-off. After all, there is an old saying that goes, "There is no name in the finals since ancient times."

Cristiano Ronaldo, Isco, Toni Kroos, etc. can all threaten their own goal from a distance.

The game starts again.

But if he encounters a winger who is stronger than him, he will look more embarrassed.

They took their time controlling the midfield and frequently conducted probing attacks.

Although Modric looks thin, he actually has a strong confrontation ability, but no matter how strong he is, he cannot ignore the rules of physics.

"Beautiful! Chu Feng forced his way through!"

Facing wingers who are absolutely not technically explosive, his defensive fighting effect is very good.

Chu Feng also discovered this keenly and signaled Pogba to pass more passes behind him. He should use his strong speed to attack frequently and try to let Carvajal reveal his flaws as soon as possible.

Chu Feng received a pass from his teammate on the wing and found that Lukaku in front and Lingard on the far side were tightly guarded, and there was no passing route at all.

There are not many tests in the competition between masters.

He believes that the accuracy of vertical long passes is not inferior to anyone, including Pirlo and Modric.

Manchester United's frontcourt set kick was taken by Pogba. His thigh swung violently and sent the ball near the penalty spot.

Unconsciously, 17 minutes passed. During this period, the two teams made sporadic offensive and defensive transitions, but unfortunately they failed to create good opportunities.

He once defended Franck Ribery, who was competing for the Ballon d'Or, but his competitive form declined due to myocarditis and injuries at the beginning of this season.

"."

Pogba nodded.

But precisely because of this, Real Madrid will be more cautious.

"From the overall formation point of view, Manchester United is more targeted."

He is the commander of Real Madrid's midfield and backfield, and can be said to be an integrated offense and defense. The most commendable thing on the defensive end is position selection and interception.

However, the overall formation is not overly compressed, but remains in front and behind the midfield. As long as Real Madrid crosses the red line and immediately presses wildly, Real Madrid's offense is bound to be stifled outside the penalty area.

Of course there are exceptions, such as AC Milan's 4-0 victory over Barcelona, ​​the Miracle in Istanbul and Inzaghi's revenge blow in 07.

The camera shifts to the green field.

"Cavajal is not in a good state today!"

"Oh, Carvajal decisively chose to foul and dragged Chu Feng to the ground!"

"In the previous game between Manchester United and Manchester City, Mourinho started to use this lineup. The reason was that the wing attack was unbalanced. But as Xiao Chu's strength continues to increase, he has the ability to hold the ball and push hard, and he can win He keeps the ball and dares to risk passing threats later on, which increases the changes in Manchester United's frontcourt."

"I come!"

Ramos roared, suppressed Lukaku, shook his head and cleared the ball out of the penalty area.

"Come and see two o'clock!"

"Modric held Lingard! He got rid of it in the shortest time and moved the ball to the left side of the court!"

"World-class ability to switch from defense to offense!"

Zhan Jun looked at the screen nervously.

Toni Kroos made quick stops and quickly charged into the Manchester United half.

at the same time.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Benzema switched positions and penetrated behind Manchester United's defense, pulling Bailly and Smalling away.

Isco is half a step behind.

What seems to be causing a disjoint in the overall formation actually avoids Manchester United's key defensive areas.

Real Madrid's targeted counterattack is equally terrifying!

Toni Kroos did not delay the offensive rhythm and quickly passed the ball to Isco in the middle.

He serves as the core of the 4-3-1-2 attack.

He is very good at breaking up the opponent's defensive position by controlling the ball, causing a chaotic situation in the frontcourt, and then using his excellent passing to create mismatches.

After all, he is the golden boy who once led Malaga to the quarterfinals of the Champions League.

Compared with Gotze, who was also famous at a young age, Isco's career was smoother. At this time, he dribbled the ball directly towards Matic!

The left and right feet touch the ball continuously, looking for that fleeting space!

Suddenly!

Isco stepped forward and dunked again, out of the passing lane!

Then the left foot swings slightly!

With a crisp sound, the football was like a sharp scalpel, cutting through Manchester United's backcourt defense.

Tens of thousands of Real Madrid fans stared at the pure white No. 7 and let out deafening cheers.

Regardless of whether Cristiano Ronaldo leaves next season, his contribution to Real Madrid cannot be denied. Real Madrid was still the 16th player in the Champions League back then and was suppressed by Barcelona.

It was this man who came forward!

But there is someone at Manchester United who knows Ronaldo very well. He is Mourinho, who has coached Real Madrid.

The two had had irreconcilable conflicts in Real Madrid, and Ronaldo was even put on the cold bench. For Ronaldo, today is a battle of revenge.

He wants to silence Mourinho with goals!

There is no unnecessary adjustment. Stop the ball in front of the side and raise your right leg high!

The movements are so simple and full of power and beauty.

The Manchester United fans in the stands subconsciously thought of those glorious years.

boom!

The football flew to the right side of the goal like a cannonball.

At the critical moment!

De Gea stood up and blocked Ronaldo's shot just like he did 5 years ago!

"Piolion! De Gea!"

"He made a crucial save to keep Manchester United from losing!"

"This reminds me of the 12/13 finals of the UEFA Champions League in the 1-8 season. De Gea was still very young at that time. He faced Real Madrid's repeated bombardments, using high and low blocks like the Aegis of Aegis."

"De Gea has become stronger this season and has a group of trustworthy teammates!"

Zhan Jun roared excitedly.

De Gea clapped his hands vigorously and encouraged: "Don't give the opponent a chance to pass the ball, block the passing route as much as possible!"

Smallin and Bailly were shocked and nodded subconsciously.

They even maintained a high level of concentration, but Ronaldo still ran out of space. The Ballon d'Or winner's sense of space was simply unparalleled.

And that Benzema.

There is a very interesting saying in football, "When the wind is favorable, Benzema will be there; when the wind is against the wind, Bale will be there; in desperate situations, Ronaldo will be there!"

Real Madrid currently occupies the midfield advantage. Benzema's movement and passing pose a huge threat to Manchester United, even more powerful than Ronaldo.

Therefore, Manchester United's defense is a bit confused.

Mourinho stood in the coach's command area on the side of the court and shouted loudly towards the court: "Lingard, you are the first line of defense. I don't care what method you use to trap Marcelo! It's a foul." no problem!"

"Herrera, be decisive when attacking!"

"."

The coaching bench next door.

Zidane stroked his bald head, but he felt surprisingly calm, because everything was under his control.

When he first took office in 2016, everyone thought he was a firefighting coach and would be dismissed soon.

If anyone said that he would lead Real Madrid to achieve three consecutive Champions League titles, it would be regarded as a dream, but such an incredible dream is about to come true.

There is always a sound from the outside world.

That is, he only relies on metaphysics and his tactical level is not high. So what is the reality?

In a situation where the team's lineup is aging and mentally exhausted, he can integrate the locker room and let the heroes work together to fight for the last time in the Champions League.

When the main lineup can no longer take into account both control and speed, substitutions can be made at the right time to change the situation and defeat powerful enemies repeatedly.

He used substitute players and rotation policies to the extreme.

He knew that Manchester United would show its strength in about 60 minutes, and he also prepared a surprise gift.

But next season is indeed a problem. Not only is Cristiano Ronaldo leaving, it is a foregone conclusion. If Real Madrid wants to continue to succeed, it is bound to carry out all-round changes and replacements.

To be honest, he couldn't do this job.

So he decided to leave after this season and let whoever is willing to shoulder this burden come.

However, if he could buy Chu Feng, he could make tactical arrangements around him and go through the transition period as smoothly as possible.

Zidane bit his head to expel the thoughts from his mind.

It is difficult for a young player who is just 18 years old to bear such a big responsibility, let alone in a wealthy club like Real Madrid.

"Corner kicks are the main way to score for Real Madrid."

"For example, in the 2014 Champions League final, Ramos' header was absolutely level at 92 minutes and 48 seconds, otherwise Real Madrid would not have won that Champions League championship."

"And Ronaldo, as the player with the highest number of header goals in football, his height in the air reached an incredible 2.88 meters."

“Let’s see Real Madrid’s corner kick tactics!”

Isco made a gesture and then kicked the ball into the penalty area.

I saw Ramos, wearing the captain's armband, rushing out like the front of a mud truck, leaping high with the help of his forward momentum!

But the football passed over his head and went straight to the back of the penalty area.

The camera pans quickly.

The back of Real Madrid No. 7 appears on the screen!

Ronaldo seemed to have escaped gravity. The moment Bailly just took off, he was already half his body higher than Bailly!

He straightened his body, exerted force on his waist and abdomen, and dunked the header!

It's like a god descending to earth!

boom!

The football flew toward the goal in response, grazed De Gea's hand, and finally got into the goal!

1-0!

Tens of thousands of Real Madrid fans in the stands shouted excitedly.

They watched Ronaldo run wildly for a distance, then leap into the air, turn around when he reached the highest point, and wave his hands upward at the same time!

The moment Ronaldo was about to land, the same voice sounded at the Olympic Stadium.

"Siu!!!"

The world is colorful, but the ego is pure white!

In the era when the European Champions Cup was beginning to take shape, Di Stefano, Puskas and Gento made Real Madrid the king of Europe with five consecutive championships that had never been seen before!

Now decades have passed.

Real Madrid's juniors will create miracles again, even getting rid of the "never comer"!

The blood of "winners" flows in their bodies. No one can stop their progress, and any obstacle will be ruthlessly destroyed!

Real Madrid players rushed to join in the celebration.

Intentionally or unintentionally, they glanced at the sidelines, where there was a shining silver trophy, and they only had the last 70 minutes left to win the trophy again.

And they will not give up the offense easily and will continue to score goals until the mentality of the Manchester United players is broken. not far away.

The Manchester United players were somewhat depressed.

The last time Real Madrid and Manchester United met, Ronaldo scored a similar goal. However, Ronaldo did not choose to celebrate at that time and retained respect for his old club.

De Gea hammered the turf in frustration. He had not been able to save it before and he did not save it today.

Could it be that Manchester United may fall tragically in front of the Galaxy Battleship just like in the 12-13 season?

Chu Feng didn't say any words of comfort and silently picked up the football and walked towards the center circle.

No matter what other people's mentality is, he doesn't want to admit defeat easily.

The strange thing is that after the Manchester United players saw it, the tension in their hearts disappeared, just like what Chu Feng said before the game.

“Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes!”

Now they have no way out, they can only rely on themselves to fight for that glimmer of hope!

De Gea said viciously: "Don't let Ronaldo take off later. If you can't stop it, then interfere as much as possible!"

There was a fierce light in Smolin's eyes, he was not a good person.

The game soon resumed.

Under Zidane's meticulous command, Real Madrid's tactics have changed. They no longer stick to passing and cutting in the midfield, but have begun to strengthen their offensive on both wings.

He wants to restrict Chu Feng through side methods, which is similar to Klopp's use of offense instead of defense.

At this time, in the stand closest to the stadium, Maria asked nervously: "Dad, does Manchester United still have a chance?"

"Yes, there is. Manchester United's overall formation is quietly retreating, giving up space in the midfield. It is obvious that they are betting on a chance to counterattack."

"That is to counterattack quickly after stealing the ball, go directly through the midfield, find behind the Real Madrid defenders, and use speed to get opportunities."

Guardiola sighed and said objectively.

This is the only way for Manchester United to win. The midfield configurations of the two teams are too different. Pogba alone is of little use and cannot form enough connection points.

"I believe Chu, he can definitely seize the opportunity!"

Maria clenched her slender palms and spoke softly and confidently.

Guardiola curled his lips when he heard this, "Real Madrid's defense line up with Ramos and Varane, and Casemiro in front to protect it, even Leo can't get through it!"

"Dad, I told you a long time ago that you don't understand Chu. Just because Leo can't make it doesn't mean he can't make it, and Chu also has teammates! He's not playing football alone!"

Maria showed two cute dimples.

Guardiola really didn't expect that his daughter was a love brain and was so confident before the relationship was established. When he saw Marius and Valentina next to him, they had the same expression.

He could only hold his forehead helplessly.

As time continues to pass.

Real Madrid's offensive versatility was fully demonstrated.

Bayern's frontcourt pressure, Barcelona's intensive passing and control, and Manchester United's precise counterattack

We can see many shadows of wealthy clubs from Real Madrid, because Real Madrid has the best players in the world and they can quickly adapt to tactical changes.

Soon the game came to the 29th minute. Casemiro made a precise diagonal pass to the wing, and Carvajal quickly moved forward.

The latter started a speed contest with Chu Feng. In the end, under the interference of Chu Feng and Pogba, Carvajal sent a 45-degree cross.

"The quality of the cross was really poor. No matter how high Ronaldo jumped, he couldn't reach it. The football was pocketed by De Gea!"

"We have to throw the ball directly to counterattack!"

"Pogba!"

Manchester United's No. 6 leaned on Modric with his back, and as his right foot crossed over the football, his center of gravity also swung to the side.

The moment Modric steals!

Pogba uses his longer legs to hook back the football that is about to get out of control.

Typical Zidane escape!

The hairstylist who showed off his feet in the past disappeared and was replaced by a left midfielder with broad vision and clean handling of the ball.

The Champions League final of the 14-15 season has become an eternal pain for Pogba.

That year Juventus lacked a striker who could seize opportunities.

So he cherishes the opportunity this year and has an excellent partner!

Before Carvajal could catch up and steal the ball, he passed the ball. The football accurately passed Casemiro and rolled quickly to the left wing along the turf.

Chu Feng stopped and started to speed up, dribbling the ball towards the Real Madrid penalty area.

Varane decisively defended.

He is an academic master. While majoring in economics, he also minored in German and sociology, so he is more accustomed to analyzing opponents through data.

He has a folder on his computer containing players he may encounter during the game.

For example, Chu Feng is accustomed to shooting from the left side of the penalty area, prefers to go outside when passing people, and likes to go past the goalkeeper and shoot into the empty goal.

He is one of the fastest centre-backs in the world!

When facing Aubameyang at his peak, he was able to come back after being passed and destroy the ball out of bounds.

Therefore, there is no need to worry about Chu Feng's explosive power.

As the distance between the two gets closer and closer.

Chu Feng slowly slowed down and took a shot.

Varane decisively chose to step forward, using his body to block the shooting route while leaving three points of power.

as predicted.

Chu Feng moved the ball to the outside with his left foot, and his center of gravity had moved to the same side.

Varane used the remaining strength to change direction and stretched out his right foot like lightning.

Snapped!

Followed by.

Chu Feng suddenly pulled his right foot back, making a "V" trajectory, avoiding Varane's steal.

Before everyone could be surprised.

Ramos waited until Marcelo took over and then rushed towards Chu Feng from the side and front.

The two immediately became entangled.

As soon as Chu Feng found the space to break forward, he suddenly felt that he couldn't control his balance and his right hand was tightly clamped.

He immediately thought of Salah's tragic experience. Do you still want to use this trick on me?

After trying several times, he couldn't pull his arm away. He simply ignored the football, took the initiative to twist Ramos' arm in reverse, and used the inertia of his fall to slam him away!

Under the close attention of everyone.

Ramos' pupils were shaking. He didn't expect Chu Feng to be so cruel, and it was too late to withdraw his arm.

The two fell to the ground during the struggle.

The referee decisively blew the whistle to signal that the game was suspended. Ramos was seen sweating heavily on his forehead, covering his red and swollen wrists and kept wailing.

Chu Feng wasn't much better, his wrists were also red and swollen.

The Olympic Stadium fell into a brief silence, and then became extremely noisy.

Manchester United fans caught Ramos and scolded him for his 18th generation ancestors, wishing they could get off the field and punch him in person.

"Fuck, so far, Ramos has received 19 red cards in his career, which is almost half more than Ronaldo's 10 red cards!"

"He even set a record for the most red cards in the history of La Liga!"

"If Chu is injured and misses the next game, Real Madrid will be equivalent to abolishing our strongest offensive method and playing really damn dirty football!"

"There is no yellow card at all. Is the referee blind?"

"."

Most Real Madrid fans were also cursing, but they knew Ramos' style of play and seemed somewhat lacking in confidence.

Soon both of them came to the sidelines and received treatment from the team doctor.

"How's it going? Is there any big problem?"

Mourinho asked nervously.

"Excluding the possibility of fracture of the lower end of the radius, it should be just muscle and ligament strain, redness and swelling. The specific situation needs to be taken with X-rays to confirm!"

The Manchester United team doctor cursed secretly.

In this case, strenuous exercise is basically not allowed, and splints cannot be worn during competitions.

Mourinho shouted without hesitation: "Faria, go and prepare for substitutions!"

"Boss, I think I'm in pretty good shape."

Chu Feng stopped Mourinho and said while holding back the pain.

He didn't mean to be a hero, but he knew that he had an injury immunity module and could repair any damage caused by exercise.

There was a warm feeling on his wrist now.

"No, I am responsible for your future, it's just a Champions League game!"

Mourinho shows no sign of relenting.

If Chu Feng was irreversibly damaged because of a game and Chu Feng's career ended hastily, he would never be able to forgive himself for the rest of his life.

"Boss, I'm serious. If I can't play this game, I will really regret it."

Chu Feng looked into Mourinho's eyes, and the pain in his wrist had dissipated a lot.

Mourinho was silent for a few seconds and nodded with difficulty: "Don't hold back if you have problems!"

Take advantage of the dead ball time.

After the referee's inspection, Chu Feng returned to the court.

Upon seeing this, Ramos, the substitute next door, also rejected Zidane's request for a substitution. He is Real Madrid's toughest guy and most iron-blooded captain, and he wants to accompany Real Madrid through this journey.

After the game restarts.

The smell of gunpowder on the field reached its extreme level, and everyone's movements became larger and larger.

Maria in the stands had wet eyes and asked with some concern: "Dad, is nothing going to happen?"

Guardiola fell into silence, staring at the green field, paying attention to the dynamics of the two teams.

The 37th minute of the game.

Ashley Young knocked down Carvajal hard and quickly transferred the ball to the side.

Pogba didn't stop the ball at all. He thought about the position of each player in his mind, half-turned and suddenly started to pass the ball!

"Nice transfer! Straight past Real Madrid's midfield!"

"Lukaku!"

"He carried Casemiro hard and headed the ball to the side!"

"Chu Feng!!!"

"The injury to his wrist has not affected him at all, and he is still so fast!"

Manchester United's No. 7 was like a burning flame, diagonally inserted behind Casemiro.

The one standing in front of him is Ramos!

A simple sway, combined with realistic fake movements.

Chu Feng found room to move forward again!

Without any hesitation, he suddenly sprinted forward!

Seeing that Chu Feng was about to pass him, Ramos had no intention of closing his legs. Instead, he increased the range of his movements and gave a subtle push with both hands.

He wanted to use a foul to stop Chu Feng.

Chu Feng clearly knew that as long as he fell to the ground, he would get a free kick in the frontcourt.

But the goal rate from set kicks is too low.

He has wasted an opportunity and this time he wants to take control of his destiny.

Someone once said to him: "As long as you keep working hard, opportunities will definitely come your way."

But he doesn't think so. He understands that there are only one or two opportunities for success. If you don't seize it, you will face failure!

Those who can resist it, Chu Feng!

Chu Feng silently told himself in his heart, slid on the turf for a distance, and climbed up awkwardly with his hands on the ground.

Then he ran forward with his head held high.

Varane next to him turned around and chased back very quickly. Chu Feng had no chance to pick up speed again. He could only adjust his posture desperately!

Swinging arms, swinging legs, and hitting balls thousands of times, this set of actions has been engraved in my bones.

In the eyes of 67136 fans in the audience.

Manchester United's No. 7 player seems to exude the spirit of the wind, the elegance of the wind, and the wildness of the wind!

His core muscles seemed to be as tense as steel. He gathered all the strength in his body and raised his right leg high!

Next!

The right leg was like an axe, falling down with a violent sound of breaking through the air!

At this moment he was like a god of war!

The Olympic Stadium is completely silent!

next second.

boom!

There was a sound like breaking gold and cracking stone on the green field, and the violent force tore every piece of leather of the football!

The football didn't carry any spin, flying along a straight line, roaring towards the Real Madrid goal!

Navas' reaction speed is very fast!

When he touched the football, infinite ecstasy surged in his heart.

But then he felt the overwhelming force, his tight wrists struggled wildly with the football, and finally collapsed helplessly.

The football bent to the right in response, hit the goal post and bounced into the goal.

This heavy shot shattered the illusions of Real Madrid fans!

Just like Mourinho said before the game, if you want to create an unprecedented three consecutive fairy tales, you have to ask these villains if they agree!

1-1!
