Chapter 1109 If you have money, you can be willful!

At 28 o'clock in the evening on September 22th, at the Bernabéu Stadium in Madrid.

In the seventh round of La Liga, Real Madrid played against Atletico Madrid at home.

This is the third game between the two teams this season. The first two games were the Spanish Super Cup. Real Madrid won the Super Cup without a win and a draw. Now it is the third game.

The two teams started with six consecutive victories, neck and neck, which is extremely rare in the history of La Liga, which also made this Madrid derby attract the attention of the whole city. The Bernabéu stadium was packed, and there were also a large number of fans of the two teams gathered outside the stadium.

It can be said that the streets of Madrid are empty tonight.

Ancelotti rarely returned to the double midfielder tactics in this game. The goalkeeper is Casillas, the defense is Marcelo, Vermaelen, Ramos and Carvajal, and the double midfielders are Mascherano and Modric. Harvey Alonso has not yet recovered.

The first three midfielders are Hazard, Isco and Di Maria, and the single striker is Yang Yang.

Real Madrid's starting lineup has been rotated, but it is not surprising.

Compared with Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid can be said to be stronger and stronger, especially with a thick bench.

The sheet army is the unshakable [-], the goalkeeper is Courtois, the defense is Felipe, Godin, Miranda and Juanfran, the midfielder is Turan, Gabi, Mario Suarez and Cork, and the striker is a double striker combination of Villa and Diego Costa.

In fact, Simeone's team has not changed much. The previous two Super Cup games used this set of play, and now the old trick is repeated, but Raul Garcia, who has performed well this season, sits on the bench.

Whenever the team wants to strengthen the midfield, especially when they attack from the back, Raul Garcia will play, so he has scored a lot of goals, which is a major scoring point for Atletico Madrid after Diego Costa this season.

But in the face of Real Madrid, Simeone obviously didn't dare to make a big deal.

……

The game started with an attack from Real Madrid.

When the ball advanced to the front of Atletico Madrid's penalty area, Isco and Di Maria formed a cooperation on the right side. Both kicked the goal continuously on the right side of the penalty area, but they were either blocked by the defender or saved by the goalkeeper, failing to pose a threat.

Atlético Madrid didn't get a chance until the 11th minute. After stealing the ball from Di Maria, Cork made a direct pass, and Diego Costa threw away Ramos. When he was about to form a single shot, Vermaelen made a diagonal stab and shoveled on the ground, knocking Diego Costa into Real Madrid's penalty area with the ball.

Although Diego Costa was slumped in the penalty area, the referee still accurately awarded the corner kick instead of a foul.

Vermaelen's shovel this time was very bold, but also very dangerous, but considering that Diego Costa was close to kicking at that time, it would be quite dangerous if Vermaelen didn't kick again.

Subsequently, the game is still under the control of Real Madrid.

In this game, Real Madrid adopted a double midfielder style of play, as if they had returned to the past, but changed Harvey Alonso into Modric, but there was a very obvious difference, that is, Hazard, Isco and Di Maria in front of them all got more opportunities to get the ball, and they all dared to try to break through with the ball.

Simeone has been standing on the sidelines since the beginning, and he quickly saw the clues.

……

"They want a free kick!" Simeone gritted his teeth.

"Free kick?" Assistant Boggs frowned.

In the past few years, all teams facing Real Madrid know that they must minimize fouls in the 30-meter area, especially at the front of the penalty area, because the Real Madrid team has an extremely BT guy who can take free kicks as penalties.

"I just reminded them in the locker room," Boggs said.

Simeone shook his head, "It's useless, they will keep creating opportunities."

He was still thinking just now, Hazard, Isco, Di Maria, and even Yang Yang, do they have too many opportunities to hold and dribble the ball?Didn't you always actively seek cooperation before?

But gradually, he understood that Ancelotti did it on purpose.

Using the personal ability of the players to create Atletico Madrid's fouls, as long as the fouls are in the frontcourt, especially around the perimeter of the penalty area, for Real Madrid, who has Yang Yang, a free kick master, it is simply an excellent scoring opportunity.

"Then let's quickly let the players press out, it is best to press near the center line." Boggs suggested nervously.

As opponents, they are more aware of the horror of Yang Yang's free kick than anyone else, so they are naturally extremely afraid.

Simeone smiled wryly and shook his head, "Once the defense line presses forward, it will be difficult for us to maintain a meticulous defensive position. Moreover, Yang Yang's starting speed is too fast and his explosive power is very strong. It is difficult for Godin and Miranda to stop him. If our defense line presses out, they will immediately adopt a strategy of attacking behind and let Yang Yang rush."

"Then reduce fouls..." Boggs immediately realized the problem again.

This summer, too many people have paid attention to Barcelona, ​​Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Neymar and Sanchez, etc., but many people have overlooked one thing, that is, Real Madrid's players are not bad, and they are not even lost to Barcelona.

Needless to say, Yang Yang, Robben and Di Maria, they have all proved themselves. Hazard also proved his strength last season, and after the setback in the Champions League last season, this season has clearly improved.

There is also Isco. Since joining Real Madrid, this guy has played in an incredible state, and even suppressed David Silva. It can be seen how amazing his state is. More importantly, he, like Hazard, is extremely good at dribbling breakthroughs.

It is conceivable that if Atletico Madrid's defensive players are afraid of fouls, they will definitely be restrained. Can they still stop Real Madrid's offensive players?

Don't forget, there is Yang Yang in front, Di Maria on the right, Modric in the back, Marcelo and Carvajal on the wings...

Suddenly, Simeone wanted to cry.

He felt the scheme from Ancelotti, an aboveboard scheme!

"What the hell, you can be willful if you are rich!" Simeone cursed angrily.

Players like Hazard and Isco, if other teams can get one, they are all very popular. Only super giants like Real Madrid and Barcelona can have such a luxury.

But what is even more frightening is that Real Madrid has Yang Yang.

This is a heaven-defying attacker, so comprehensive that there are almost no flaws, and more importantly, he also has an amazing free kick.

Yang Yang is like a sword of Damocles hanging over Atletico Madrid's head, which may be cut off at any time.

This feeling is so uncomfortable!

This doesn't work, that doesn't work either, Boggs can't sit still, restless.

At this moment, in the No. 203 minute of the game, Hazard dribbled the ball away from Juanfran from the left, and when he cut in laterally, he was tripped to the ground by Mario Suarez who rushed over.

The referee's whistle suddenly sounded, foul, free kick!

In an instant, Simeone couldn't bear to look directly and patted his forehead hard, then turned and walked back.

The fans at the Bernabéu stadium cheered crazily as if they saw hope.

…………

…………

Courtois stood in front of the goal line, looked down at the turf, trying to calm himself down.

He is about to face directly Yang Yang, the most terrifying attacker in the world.

Yang Yang not only has the leading scoring ability, but also his free kick accomplishment is recognized as the world's number one.

But Courtois quickly looked up and let out a deep breath.

He is confident to save Yang Yang's free kick.

Commanding the defensive wall, Courtois kept observing the surrounding situation.

This is a direct free kick opportunity on the left side of the arc top of the penalty area. The distance is about 20 meters. The position itself is very good. Yang Yang’s direct free kick skill is also worth mentioning. Courtois needs to use the wall to make up for some shortcomings.

He is very clear that he is not falling fast. After all, he is close to two meters tall and extremely burly. He is known as the best height template for a goalkeeper, and his physical fitness is very good. This gives him a very good range of control, but it will definitely bring some disadvantages, such as his speed of falling to the ground is not fast enough.

He needs the human wall to seal the near corner for him to prevent Yang Yang from hitting the goal directly.

After the human wall was arranged, Courtois observed it carefully again, and finally confirmed that there was no problem, so he signaled to his teammates that it was okay, and he stood in a position slightly to the left of the center.

He is sure that if Yang Yang hits the far corner, he can save it.

The premise is that it cannot be a dead end.

The reason why a dead angle is called a dead angle is because it cannot be sealed at all.

But for most players, it is as difficult as buying a lottery ticket to try their luck.

Courtois bent slightly, looking directly at Yang Yang on the opposite side of the human wall.

Seeing that Yang Yang had already set up the ball, he took three steps back slowly, and adjusted his emotions after standing still.

After the referee set up the penalty area, he quickly exited and whistled to signal that the penalty could be taken.

Hearing the whistle, everyone in the audience, including the more than 8 Real Madrid fans in the stands, raised their hearts to their throats. They all focused on Yang Yang's every move on the pitch, and the live TV cameras were all aimed at Yang Yang.

They simply wished they could have a panoramic view of everything that happened to Yang Yang in detail.

I only saw Yang Yang running forward quickly, stepping on a familiar pace, approaching the ball, standing still with his left foot, leaning his body, kicking out his right foot quickly, and directly hitting the stationary ball.

Everyone at the scene only heard a muffled bang, and saw the ball fly out quickly, climbed at an extremely fast speed that could not be seen by the naked eye, crossed the high jumping wall, and quickly fell to the right side of the goal.

Courtois quickly judged it, and quickly moved a step to the right, judging the ball's fall.

Taller!

The Belgian goalkeeper judged it immediately. He realized that the ball was a little high in order to bypass the wall.

If there was no problem with his judgment, the ball should have hit the crossbar and flew out.

But what happened next made him pale with shock.

The ball fell rapidly!
