Chapter 404 Scoring 2 goals

[To be honest, I feel Chelsea still has some chances. Real Madrid's wing defense is not as strong as expected]

[The problem is that Chelsea's defense is also average. Real Madrid can run in both directions, but Chelsea can only play on the left. You can't expect Fabregas to run fast.]

[What's the point of running fast? You still have to look at the overall attack. Fabregas' overall coordination is still relatively strong, suitable for Xiao Jiang to be a wingman]

[Is running fast useless? Mourinho likes to counterattack so much, Chelsea must have an advantage if they run fast]

[Come on, come on, come on, Real Madrid! Come on, come on, come on, Jiang Yuan! ]

[Both sides are very strong. It depends on whether some players can perform unexpectedly. Ronaldo, Isco, Jiang Yuan and Hazard are crucial in this match.]

[It is not enough to rely on the stars, the team must be strong as a whole to win. On the surface, it is Real Madrid vs. Chelsea, but in fact it is Zidane vs. Mourinho]

[Okay, if it was the 0s, I would support Mourinho, but forget about the current Mourinho, he can’t even win the Premier League title this season]

[I can’t even win the Premier League title, is it easy to win the Premier League title? 】

As expected, the comment section of the football forum has started arguing again. There is nothing that can be done about it. After all, subjective factors account for a large part of football. When several fans with different positions start chatting together, it is only a matter of time before they start arguing.

Back to the game, Azpilicueta took a corner kick, Ronaldo jumped in the penalty area and successfully cleared the ball with a header, but Kroos, who had a keen sense of smell, successfully got the ball.

"Go, go, go, push forward, just push forward!"

Kroos and Modric are two card-dealing machines in Real Madrid. They need to use their broad vision to help the team find offensive opportunities.

At Kroos' roar, Real Madrid's players on both sides and in the middle pressed forward at the same time. Even Marcelo, who played as a full-back, went directly to the left sideline.

This is Marcelo's trust in Kroos. The German will not make mistakes at such a critical moment.

Snapped!
A transitional long pass was made, the ball rotated diagonally downward in the air, and finally came to Isco's feet. The ball was not very stable, but for Isco, it was very easy to handle the long pass in this situation.

ta!

A crisp sound was heard, and Isco unloaded the ball steadily in front of him. The first thing the Spaniard did after completing the control of the ball was to look towards the middle, preparing to kick a perfect 45-degree cross from his position to assist his teammates to score.

Unfortunately, this was a corner kick counterattack, and it was Cristiano Ronaldo, the fastest player in the team, who cleared the ball, so there were no Real Madrid players around the Chelsea penalty area at that time.

A moment's hesitation allowed Kante to seize the opportunity and move forward directly.

Isco is only about 1 meters tall, so it is not difficult for Kanter to defend Isco alone.

"Give it out directly!"

Zidane shouted outside the court, it would be really painful if such a good advancing opportunity was interrupted.

"Come!"

Benzema ran in front of Isco at some point, creating a nearly perfect angle for Isco to pass the ball. Isco gave the ball without hesitation, then ran to the left to the middle.

Snapped!
Benzema made a back pass from the left penalty area, and the ball returned to Isco's feet again.

"Real Madrid played a two-on-one combination on the right side, and Isco took the ball and ran towards the middle"

"Look up, Isco is looking for Ronaldo, Chelsea's defense needs to tighten up!"

"Isco! Don't give Chelsea a chance to react, just pass the ball straight to the goal!"

"It was a low pass, a perfect pass to Ronaldo, who was rushing towards the position where the ball was about to arrive."

Isco's through ball is as delicate as Kroos's, which means that the striker does not need to exert much effort to control the ball.

Seeing the ball flying past his feet, Pogba felt nervous and quickly turned around to ask Ake to stick to Ronaldo.

But as mentioned before, Isco's through ball was very accurate, just enough for Ronaldo to reach the position before Ake.

Done!

Ake thought something was wrong, but the next second the referee blew the whistle.

"Beep!"

"Hey, this is Ronaldo's offside!"

"What a pity, Real Madrid's attack had already started, but when Isco passed the ball, Ronaldo was already standing on the offside line"

"Foda-se!"

Ronaldo yelled angrily, while Mourinho in front of the bench just laughed.

Mourinho had previously coached Real Madrid, and he knew all of Ronaldo's strengths and weaknesses very well.

In today's game, he and defensive players such as Ake and Terry specifically emphasized that if they find it difficult to defend against Ronaldo, they should make him offside.

It wasn't Ake's intention to let Ronaldo be offside just now. It was just that Chelsea was lucky today.

Ibrahimovic's blessing to God before the game started to work!

"De lejos y de cerca～"

“Nos traes hasta aquí~~”

"I'm so happy~"

“Pegada al corazón~~”

After a brief scream, the stands of the Bernabeu Stadium were once again filled with the sound of fans singing the team song.

Chelsea fans were in pretty good shape today, singing Chelsea's music in the away team's stands.

Judging from the performance of both teams in the first five minutes, Chelsea is in good shape today. If Chelsea can remain unbeaten in away games, then they may have a chance to defeat Real Madrid at home in a week!

However, Chelsea always disappoints the fans this season. After the 10th minute of the game, Real Madrid, playing at home, took the initiative to speed up the pace of the game, making it difficult for Chelsea to react for a while.

This should be the tactic that Zidane set specifically for this game, to increase the game tempo to the maximum from the 10th minute to the 15th minute, and then return to the normal game tempo after 15 minutes.

This will consume a lot of players' physical strength, but it can also catch Chelsea off guard. Just because Real Madrid played for less than 5 minutes, Chelsea's sister group suddenly began to lose control.

In the Premier League, Chelsea has always been in control of the tempo of the game, but the role changes in the Champions League.

Apart from anything else, the feeling of having your artery pinched by your opponent is really uncomfortable.

After 15 minutes, Real Madrid played the same way as 10 minutes ago. The only difference was the strange period from 10 to 15 minutes.

Chelsea could easily deal with the Real Madrid 10 minutes ago, but it was difficult to deal with the new Real Madrid that played with the same tactics and rhythm 15 minutes later.

This is the charm of changing rhythm in high-level football matches!

"Relax, relax a little!"

Mourinho waved to the players on the field: "Remember your roles, do what you should do, there will be no problem, there will be no problem!"

"Paul, pay attention to the right! Do you see Ronaldo? Go up and stop him!"

As soon as Mourinho finished speaking, Modric made a pass with the outside of his foot in the backcourt, and the ball went around Ake and went straight to Ronaldo's feet. The Portuguese number 7 suddenly accelerated and rushed directly past Ake.

"Fuck!"

Seeing this scene, Ake was completely stunned.

He wanted to create an offside, but judging from the referee's lack of reaction in blowing the whistle, it seemed that this offside was a mistake!
"Real Madrid's chance!"

"Ake made some moves with his hands to block Ronaldo from entering the penalty area easily."

"The teammates are already in place. Ake's moves are getting bolder and bolder. He knocks Ronaldo down directly!"

Beep!
The long-awaited whistle finally came, but it was not for Ronaldo's offside, but for Ake's tactical foul.

Yellow Card: 6 Ake
The first yellow card of the game came from Chelsea's full-back Ake!
Real Madrid got a direct free kick opportunity outside the left penalty area because of Ake's foul. Benzema knocked the ball to Kroos who was running up from behind with his heel, and the latter picked up the ball with his toes.

"Do you want it?"

Kroos held the ball and looked at Ronaldo, who stood at the free kick spot and observed for a while.

It's relatively close to the goal, but just too far from the center line.

This is not a good direct free kick spot, but since Kroos asked, with Ronaldo's character he would definitely not refuse the opportunity that comes to him.

"give it to me"

Ronaldo took the ball, held it in his hands and pressed it hard twice.

"Be careful to hit the door directly!"

Terry whispered, and by the time Ronaldo put the ball on the white arc, the Chelsea captain had already taken a defensive position at the near end.

For this corner kick, Courtois chose to defend the near corner himself, and the far end was handed over to his teammates who were equally tall.

The camera turned to Ronaldo. The Portuguese took a deep breath, took three steps back, and then took another step to the left.

Terry put his right hand behind his butt with his thumb pointing up. This was his gesture to Courtois, meaning to shoot directly.

Although he has never been teammates with Ronaldo, as a veteran in football, Terry is familiar with the habits of various top shooters.

There is a 90% chance that Ronaldo's action is to shoot directly at the goal!

Terry pushed Casemiro away, lowered his head and said to Jiang Yuan: "When the ball comes out, just run forward."

Beep!
Referee Kasai blew the whistle and Ronaldo ran straight ahead.

Hit the door!

boom!
This was a standard curve ball, and the ball drew a reverse letter "C" in the air. It was obvious that Ronaldo wanted to use the curve ball to bypass the human wall and attack the far end where the goalkeeper was not defending.

The speed and angle of the ball were perfect, but unfortunately it hit the intersection of the crossbar and the post.

It's just a little bit short of 10 cents, but it's just that little bit short.

"Jesus!"

Mourinho was breathing heavily. If Ronaldo had scored from the first free kick, Chelsea wouldn't have to play the next game.

It turns out that God is on Chelsea's side today!

"Go!"

Seeing the ball bounce out, Terry pushed Jiang Yuan forward. At the same time, Hazard and Pogba ran towards the landing point of the ball. However, Modric was one step faster and shot the ball directly on Zouma. The ball bounced out again and was back under the control of Chelsea players.

Fabregas passed the ball to Pogba, who looked up and began to observe. Zidane must have specifically emphasized that when Pogba got the ball, Ronaldo immediately interfered with him, and the French midfielder of the Blues could only return the ball to Fabregas in a panic.

There were people around Fabregas at the moment of passing the ball, and there was no essential difference between Pogba's passing and passing the ball.

This was a test for Fabregas. Fortunately, Fabregas was experienced enough. He first used his body to push Ramos away, then took the initiative to run towards Pogba's position, and made a horizontal pass to Ake on the wing, successfully clearing the ball.

"Go forward!"

Fabregas really wanted to scold Pogba, but the ball was not dead yet, so he had to run and operate before thinking about other things.

"Ake, dribble the ball forward. Chelsea's formation has been completely broken up by Real Madrid. Ake now needs to take on the task of right winger. Fortunately, Ake is relatively fast, so it shouldn't be a big problem for him to play as a winger for the time being."

"C Ronaldo runs back, but he shouldn't be the main defensive player. Marcelo, Marcelo wants to pull someone to stop Chelsea's attack!"

"Ake, just give it to the left!"

"This is an arc pass, given to Jiang Yuan!"

Ake's pass was very purposeful, he wanted to find Jiang Yuan, and Jiang Yuan did not disappoint his teammates' expectations. He ran forward and stretched his feet, successfully controlling the ball under his feet.

Keep moving forward!

"Beep beep beep!!"

The stands were full of fake whistles. The home team fans hoped to disrupt Jiang Yuan in this way. Fortunately, Jiang Yuan himself was not the kind of player who was easily affected by external factors, and he dribbled the ball directly in front of Nacho.

This is the last defensive player in front of Jiang Yuan on the horizontal line. If Jiang Yuan can shake off Nacho before other Real Madrid players return to defense, he will find an opportunity to face Navas directly!

This is a possible one-on-one shot!
In the camera, Jiang Yuan is starting to approach Nacho. When facing such a one-on-one opportunity, the attacking players must not slow down. Especially for Jiang Yuan, his strength is speed, so he should make good use of it.

In the 1V1 with Nacho, Jiang Yuan didn't use any feints and chose to just force his way through, wanting to use his body to eat Nacho alive, but Nacho, as the old captain of Real Madrid, was no fool.

He knew that he couldn't catch up with Jiang Yuan, so when he saw Jiang Yuan rushing towards him, he just stepped forward and stepped right in front of Jiang Yuan.

At this time, Jiang Yuan only needed to take a step forward and Nacho could fall to the ground and commit a foul.

shit!

Cursing inwardly, Jiang Yuan knocked the ball back to his left foot with his right foot, preparing to walk to Nacho's left side.

As a result, Nacho seemed to have guessed that Jiang Yuan would do this. He moved sideways and blocked Jiang Yuan again.

"Jesus!"

The Chelsea players on the bench held their ears with their hands. Jiang Yuan was at a disadvantage in the one-on-one match, and his teammates on the bench looked like they had seen a ghost.

Two consecutive attempts to dribble past the defense were unsuccessful. Although the ball was still in Jiang Yuan's control, other defensive players of Real Madrid were already in place.

Jiang Yuan went to the left again, but was caught by Carvajal who was returning to defense. Carvajal was only a little over 1 meters tall, but he seized the moment when Jiang Yuan's center of gravity was unstable and pushed Jiang Yuan away with an iron mountain lean.

Through this wave of counterattack, Real Madrid once again regained the ball from Chelsea.

"What the hell are you doing? What bullshit!"

Mourinho was so angry on the sidelines that he wanted to go on the field and do it himself. In just 5 seconds, he was warned twice by the linesman not to step on the sideline. "Zlatan, can't you run faster?"

Damn, Jiang Yuan had been fighting one-on-one for 3 seconds outside the penalty area, and Ibrahimovic had not yet reached the position where he was supposed to be.

I know you can't run fast because you're old, but you can't run so slowly!

22 '
Real Madrid: 61%
Chelsea: 39%
The data company gave the data of both teams so far, Chelsea's ball possession rate hovered around 40%. Compared with Real Madrid, this ball possession rate seems to be rubbish, but it is not the case.

A team's ball possession rate is usually created by the midfielders and backcourt players, as well as wingers who like to protect the ball and dribble. Chelsea uses Fabregas as the right winger, and Pogba, who doesn't like to corner, as the defensive midfielder. Getting a 40% ball possession rate against Real Madrid is already a very good result.

At least Mourinho was quite satisfied with the ball possession rate.

The main problem is the shooting data. The game was just over 22 minutes old, but Real Madrid's shots on target were almost three times that of Chelsea.

Not only was the defense completely destroyed, but the offense hadn't even started yet. To be honest, if God hadn't been deliberately favoring Chelsea today, we wouldn't know what the score would be now.

The game lasted until the 35th minute, when Chelsea began to slowly regain their form. Pogba fired a world-class shot from 30 yards away from the goal in the middle. The speed and angle of the ball were extremely high, which scared Navas to death. Fortunately, the ball finally hit Ramos' calf, otherwise Chelsea might have been leading now!
"Wow, shit!"

"Clap clap clap!"

"good good!"

Mourinho gave Pogba a thumbs up on the field. Although this guy's discipline is very poor, his strength is unquestionable.

Pogba's shot in the 36th minute was Chelsea's best chance to score so far!

"Beep!"

Just two minutes after the long shot, Pogba was whistled by the referee for a foul in the backcourt, but the foul was minor, so Casse did not show Pogba a yellow card.

"It's ok, it's ok..."

Mourinho kept comforting himself.

Although Chelsea is obviously at a disadvantage in the situation, the score is still 0:0.

Neither side scored any goals, but considering that this is Real Madrid's home ground, Mourinho was still very happy.

Keep this score and don't score any goals before the end of the first half...

"Eh!"

Mourinho exclaimed as Kroos took a corner kick from the right.

Corner kicks and such don't really matter.

The main thing is that Ronaldo is currently in a state of being unguarded!

"Look to the left!"

Courtois shouted, but it was too late. Ronaldo jumped up and headed the ball, which went steadily into the net.

“Gooooooooooooooool!”

Courtois' heart broke when he saw the ball flying past him on the left and right.

"The ball goes in! Header from Ronaldo!"

"1:0, Real Madrid was the first to break Chelsea's goal!"

"Hey, this is what we said, a player like Ronaldo, his finishing ability is really exaggerated"

"Chelsea made a huge mistake here by ignoring Ronaldo in the corner"

In fact, it cannot be said that Chelsea ignored Ronaldo's presence. The main reason was that when the corner kick was taken just now, Ronaldo had been hiding far away from the penalty area, which gave the Chelsea defender the illusion that he did not want to participate in direct attack.

The fact is, illusions are illusions, and Chelsea players were deceived!

"Come here, everyone, come here!"

Ronaldo ran towards where Kroos was, and at the same time did not forget to greet the players around him.

C Ronaldo, Casemiro, and Benzema all slid on their knees on the field at the same time.

"VAMOS!!!!"

Bang bang bang bang!

RMA:CHE
1:0
"Crisitiano~"

“Crisitiano Ronaldo~~”

Ronaldo stood up and sat on the billboard with his arms folded across his chest. At the same time, Real Madrid fans in the stands sang Ronaldo's name.

That man still has to be that man!

"Why don't you go up?"

Courtois spread his hands to Zouma, who did the same, and pointed to the outside of the penalty area on the left: "He was in that position just now, how can I defend him? Should I leave the penalty area too?"

The player marking him ran out of the penalty area, and Zouma, as the key defender of corner kicks, absolutely could not leave the penalty area.

The most correct way to deal with this situation is to let a midfielder or a forward defend Ronaldo, but Chelsea lacks experience in this area, which allowed Real Madrid to take advantage of the opportunity.

If nothing unexpected happens, this tactic should be specially formulated by Zidane for today's match against Chelsea.

We are targeting you, the Blues!

“Pull up pull up!”

Terry kept waving his hands: "Don't worry, they are only leading temporarily, they are only one goal ahead of us, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter, we can catch up!"

Courtois was still angry with Zouma because of what happened just now, but Terry also knew that the problem was not just Zuma's, so he pulled Courtois aside to talk.

"It's just a loss of a ball, it doesn't matter, we won't lose the ball next time, we still have to score goals!"

It was almost 43 minutes after the kick-off. With a one-goal lead, the singing in the Bernabeu Stadium became louder and louder, so loud that Jiang Yuan, who was playing on the field, could clearly hear the Spanish words shouted by the fans.

Fabregas had taught him some of the words, so Jiang Yuan could still understand some of them.

"Forward, Madrid", the lyrics of the team song can be said to be perfectly in line with Real Madrid's current situation.

Taking advantage of the kick-off opportunity, Chelsea launched a fast break on the left. Jiang Yuan ran out without the ball. Because he did not have the ball at his feet, Modric, who was defending him alone, could not foul and could only follow Jiang Yuan's ass.

The problem is that it is still difficult for Modric to keep up with the breaking Jiang Yuan. The helpless Croatian can only hand over the task of defending Jiang Yuan to Carvajal behind him.

"go!"

Hazard shouted and made a straight pass, the ball passed Casemiro and came to Jiang Yuan's feet.

In order to avoid wasting time with Carvajal at the bottom line, Jiang Yuan cut directly into the middle and faced Real Madrid captain Nacho again.

At this time, Nacho rushed up. Seeing the opportunity, Jiang Yuan signaled Ibrahimovic to go into the penalty area, while he continued to run to the right. In just a few minutes, he had reached the right half of the field.

The timing was right, Jiang Yuan observed Ibrahimovic's position, and finally decided to rush into the penalty area himself. However, just one second before Jiang Yuan stepped on the penalty area line, Ramos headed the ball into Jiang Yuan's face.

"What the fuck?"

Jiang Yuan rolled on the ground twice, and the first thing he did after getting up was to rush up to find trouble with Ramos. Ramos, who had just committed a foul, looked down on everyone, and Jiang Yuan was so angry that he pushed Ramos away.

"Hey, Jiang, Jiang, there's no need, forget it!"

Casemiro ran over and hugged Jiang Yuan, while pushing him away from Ramos little by little: "Forget it, it's okay, I apologize to you on behalf of Sergio."

“This has nothing to do with you”

Jiang Yuan pulled Casemiro's hand away and was about to argue with Ramos, but Casemiro quickly pulled Jiang Yuan back and started talking to him in Portuguese: "You'll get a yellow card if you try to cause trouble for Sergio now. Forget it, there's no need to do that."

Casemiro was right. If Ramos received a yellow card, Real Madrid could immediately bring out a substitute central defender, but if Jiang Yuan received a yellow card, Chelsea would not be able to make a substitution.

If he gets a yellow card, Jiang Yuan will have to play cautiously in the rest of the game!
"Fuck!"

Jiang Yuan glared at Ramos, then turned and walked away.

"Chelsea has a direct free kick opportunity outside the penalty area. Real Madrid's direct free kick just now was a little short. Let's take a look at Chelsea's."

"Hey, the players on the field discussed it and decided not to let Jiang Yuan play."

"Yes, this is the right choice. Jiang Yuan was just pushed down and is very angry now. It would be better to let other players take over."

"I suggest that Chelsea treat this direct free kick as an indirect free kick. Let's see the result of the discussion within the Chelsea team. Should we give it to Azpilicueta?"

"Hey, let Kante play? Chelsea doesn't seem to be giving up this chance to shoot directly!"

If a direct free kick is kicked as an indirect free kick, wouldn't that be a huge loss? Chelsea players will not do such a loss-making business.

A direct free kick is a direct free kick!

"Kante, look at the quality of this free kick..."

boom!
Kante's violent volley hit Nacho's head, and the latter fell to the ground in pain. However, the referee did not blow the whistle in a hurry because the ball was still in the hands of Real Madrid, and Real Madrid was conducting a set-piece counterattack.

Casemiro passed the ball to Modric, who twisted his waist and kicked the ball with the outside of his foot, and the ball landed at Ronaldo's feet.

fuck!

Ake felt something was wrong and ran quickly to the backcourt, but Ronaldo accelerated and rushed past Ake. Ake wanted to reach out and pull Ronaldo down, but he already had a yellow card.

Just like that, in front of more than 8 fans at the scene, Ronaldo carried Ake's body, ran from the left sideline to the left side of the penalty area, swung his left leg and shot the ball straight into the dead corner of the goal.

47'NUMX ''
"Goal, Cristiano Ronaldo! Goal from Cristiano Ronaldo!"

“This is an absolute blind spot!”

“A near-perfect break!”

The screen focused on Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese superstar ran towards the left stands, his arms swinging back and forth in rhythm with his running.

Jump up and raise your hands.

When your feet land, stretch your arms out to the sides of your thighs.

"SIUUUUUUU!!!!"

"2:0! Real Madrid, playing at home, extended their lead to 2 goals"

"Beautiful, Ronnie!"

"Ronnie!"

Real Madrid players gathered together and gave hugs and kisses to Ronaldo who scored the goal.

Chelsea players stood there stupidly. The first half had not ended yet, but the score was already fixed at 2:0.

There are only 2 minutes of extra time, and it is almost the 3rd minute now, which means that the first half will be over as soon as Ibrahimovic kicks the ball.

Chelsea is destined to return to the locker room with a score of 2 goals behind!

Mourinho knows this problem, and the Portuguese is now silent.

Without mentioning a specific player, offensive line or defensive line, Chelsea lost to Real Madrid as a whole.

From player coordination to game tactics, everything was lost!
[Nima, it was still 40:0 at 0 minutes, how come it is 2:0 now? When did Real Madrid buy the cheat?]

[Invincible, I thought Chelsea would be able to escape unscathed today, but now it seems that this is not the case]

[Whoever went to Lingyin Temple to ask for a fortune yesterday told me that Chelsea can draw with Real Madrid away today? You f*cking stand up! ]

[It's over, it's all over! ]

[I give up. We were behind by 2 in the first half, so the final score must be 4 behind.]

[The only one who can save Chelsea now is Li Yi, Tiege, call Florentino quickly! ]

[I feel it's OK. Real Madrid's luck just got better in the last few minutes. If I must say, Chelsea also had a lot of chances. If Pogba had scored that long shot, the score would have been 2:1. I feel this score is more acceptable.]

[The problem is that Pogba’s long shot didn’t go in]

[What's wrong with Xiao Jiang? Why don't you try your best? This performance is not worthy of a net worth of 1.2 million.]

[Fuck you, your Xiao Jiang was almost killed by Ramos. Can Ibrahimovic's position not be so deep? As soon as Ibrahimovic walked inside, Ramos went to find Jiang Yuan. I am really convinced.]

【Chelsea fans believe in miracles! 】

“Let’s go!”

Kasai blew the whistle to end the first half of the game, and the score was unsurprisingly fixed at 2:0.

77% of fans are optimistic that Real Madrid can win today's game, and the actual situation is developing in the direction expected by most fans.

Mourinho is the most anxious person now. The next second after the whistle of the first half sounded, the Portuguese's back disappeared deep in the player tunnel of the Bernabeu Stadium.

The most disgusting thing is that someone turns against their team during the game. This time, Chelsea experienced God's betrayal.

Real Madrid players had no feeling for shooting in the first place, so what did it mean when they suddenly went berserk after 40 minutes?
Players from both sides have returned to their respective locker rooms, and the big screen at the top of the Bernabeu Stadium is still playing the highlights of the game.

It was either Ronaldo's wonderful attack or Ramos' violent defense, and the singing at the scene was endless.

15 minutes is the time for the players to rest, but the fans in the stands seemed to need no rest at all.
