[Chapter 127 has been reviewed. The editor has gone to bed at this time and will be out tomorrow morning! 】
It seems that the opponent is giving up the attack and relying on Real Madrid to score at least one point, which is the same as the last confrontation between the two teams!
Although Real Madrid knew the other party's intentions, they were powerless.
Their forwards all retreated to the midfield position, with no thought of counterattack. Full defense was the core of their tactics.
Even though Toni Kroos sent a few seconds passes and passed through countless defenders, which caused a lot of trouble to the opponent, there were many defenders coming to block every shot, and there was no angle at all.
Even a slugger like Ronaldo and a natural shooting machine can hardly find a perfect opportunity to score.
At 25 minutes into the game, there was still no progress between the two sides. Real Madrid was losing energy because 70% of the time they were holding the ball.
On the other hand, Sporting Gijon's players gathered together in the penalty area, their running distance was very limited, and they did not try to open up space, so their physical exertion was much easier than that of Real Madrid.
This can't go on like this!
Real Madrid's generals all expressed their helplessness during the delay in attacking to no avail. They remained silent and could only silently look for gaps in the opponent's iron wall.
During this period, Zidane was also worried. Real Madrid's offense had no problems, but they were good at counterattacks and extremely fast. In this kind of positional attack, they could not take advantage of it at all.
On the entire offensive end, we can only rely on Ronaldo and Modric's long-range shot attempts to have a chance to shoot.
Soon, time flew by, and Real Madrid was still in an embarrassing situation. The whole scene made no progress at all. It was a very dull game!
45 minutes passed, and the two sides were still 0-0, without a single goal.
Finally the referee blew the half-time whistle, and the players from both sides returned to the locker room to rest.
The opposing coach looked proud and applauded his boys.
"well done!"
"Well played!"
The players who greeted them one by one seemed to be great heroes!
Obviously they did not score a goal, but it is not easy to prevent Real Madrid's heavy attacks.
Zidane was not anxious or angry in the locker room. After all, Sporting Gijon, as a newly promoted team, must defend well. Their city is indestructible. Zidane understands the anxious psychology of the players.
“We had to switch formations in the second half.”
Zidane put his pockets in his pockets and entered the room without saying a word. He pulled over the tactical board and said, "At the same time, we need to make some personnel changes."
"Modric."
"Yeah." Modric nodded in response when Zidane called him.
"In the second half, you have to reduce the frequency of shooting. Don't be anxious after getting the ball. You are mainly responsible for supporting and organizing the defense after losing the ball."
"Tony, you need to rest for the second half."
"Bai Ran."
"You come on!"
Hearing this, everyone was shocked!
Even Bai Ran was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Zidane would let him go up and kick in halftime.
And this is not the icing on the cake, it is asking yourself to provide help in times of need! Open up the situation for Real Madrid!
Time is tight and the task is heavy!
Zidane really trusts him! Being able to send Bai Ran up at this juncture shows that he fully recognizes Bai Ran's personal abilities, otherwise he would not have made such a decision!
At the same time, Zidane also changed the entire tactical system. The defense line was pushed up to the top of the arc to provide support. The full-backs also stepped in to attack, leaving only two defensive players in the backcourt.
If they are not in a hurry, then we are even less in a hurry and will just fight positional warfare!
If you find a good opportunity, pass the threatening ball to me. If you can't find a good opportunity, then we will pass the ball and keep looking!
Because of this, the tactical change became like this, and Bai Ran's appearance became more meaningful.
Zidane has coached Bai Ran, and of course he understands Bai Ran's characteristics. This kid's passing ability is second to none, he has always been very strong, and his imagination is also very good.
And after these days of training, his vision ability, running ability, reaction ability, and even physical confrontation have been greatly improved.
The effect of these things on the offensive end of positional warfare will be very significant.
After the tactical arrangements were completed, ten minutes passed in a flash. In the second half, the game changed sides and the game continued!
When they saw the third referee on the sidelines saying that Real Madrid had made personnel adjustments, and No. 37 came on the field to replace Toni Kroos, everyone had different reactions!
"Damn it, isn't that Bai Ran! Do you still remember that Chinese guy?"
"Why don't you remember that the kid that Real Madrid recruited from Team B some time ago scored a goal in the last game?"
"It's 0-0 on the field and he comes up to replace Tony. Is that okay?"
Some fans looked full of doubts, feeling that Bai Ran could not lead their offensive line.
The other side showed a look of joy!
"Bai Ran is here!"
"The super newcomer will definitely bring a lot of energy to the team."
"Besides, Bai Ran is very strong. Now the opponent is miserable..."
"There will definitely be goals in the second half. With him on the field, the game will be lively!"
Bai Ran jumped high a few times, went on the court with his Real Madrid teammates, changed sides, and prepared for the start of the game.
Stepping into this stadium again, Bai Ran's heart was still very surging.
People on the sidelines were calling his name one after another, which made him a little nervous.
But he dare not forget the task Zidane gave him!
The referee blows the whistle and the game continues in the second half!
As soon as the game started, all members of Real Madrid moved a lot of positions to the opposite side, which made the opponent stunned for a moment.
So fierce! ?
It's a pity that you don't have the ability to penetrate our defenses!
Sporting Gijon's players were not that good at controlling the ball at their feet, and they knew it, so after losing the ball they quickly gathered in their own penalty area, preparing to defend against Real Madrid's indiscriminate bombardment.
Isco took the ball and broke through from the side and handed it to Bell who intervened. Bell was forced into a desperate situation and turned around and handed the ball to Bai Ran who came to respond!
Bai Ran waited and watched after receiving the ball. He didn't have a good chance to pass the ball back to Modric on the outside of the penalty area!
Snapped!
After Modric stopped the ball, the space in front of him was actually quite wide. Everyone on the other side quickly shouted: "Block it! Don't let him take a long shot!"
Modric's long hair swayed and his feet moved erratically.
Who's going to take the long shot?
Zidane had already told him in the midfield to try to minimize long-range shots and deliver the ball more to this Asian kid - Bai Ran!
Let Bai Ran create more opportunities. This is the best way for Real Madrid to score goals!
Modric first passed a defensive midfielder through a change of rhythm, and then quickly passed the ball to Bai Ran on the side.
Bai Ran's vision and passing are already among the best in the world, and he can see the open space in the distance at a glance!
A tall white figure is looking for an opportunity!
That was Ronaldo, Bai Ran could tell at a glance.
Using a secret gesture, Ronaldo found an opportunity to move, while Bai Ran was dribbling the ball horizontally.
Seeing this, the opponent's lower back immediately got into contact with the Asian!
In physical confrontation, Asians are obviously at a disadvantage. This is common sense. Asians have also logged in to La Liga, and they are quite experienced in this common sense.
The midfielder rushed straight towards Bai Ran, but Bai Ran held his breath and was not afraid at all!
Now his strength is 92. Who can beat him with this kind of physical fitness?
Unless he is a purely physical player!
boom!
The two of them collided hard!
Although Bai Ran doesn't weigh much, her core strength is very strong!
Once upon a time, he also followed Raul to conduct targeted training on his core strength every day. Now Bairan is not afraid of confrontation!
The opponent's back suddenly squeezed, but Bai Ran didn't lose his balance, let alone fall!
Sporting Gijon's defensive focus was all on Bai Ran, and Bai Ran was in a hard fight for a while.
Modric and Isco hurriedly stepped in to respond to Bai Ran.
"Here, Bai Ran!"
"Picked you up!"
The teammates rush forward in a rush, but the person at the far end is looking for an opportunity and suddenly accelerates forward!
He had been walking on the offside line since he exchanged glances with Bai Ran just now, just for this moment!
"Bai Ran!"
Hearing the call from the far end, Bai Ran raised his foot and pretended to pass a long pass, causing the opponent's players to try their best to block it. However, Bai Ran turned around with the ball and immediately found a large space in front of him!
It was so clever, so understated, so effortlessly able to get rid of the pressing defense in front of him!
Then, Bai Ran made a long pass. The ball crossed the opponent's entire defense line and landed accurately in front of Ronaldo!
Cristiano Ronaldo has been waiting for a long time. He sprints forward with all his strength. The goal is right in front of him. This ball is an excellent opportunity!
The ball bounced off the ground, and at this moment, Cristiano Ronaldo kicked up his foot and pumped!
boom--
The ball blasted into the opponent's net like a cannonball. The goalkeeper stood blankly in front of the goal and could only open his arms symbolically. There was no time for him to make any saves!
The ball went in!
In the 55th minute of the game, the balance on the field was finally broken!
Cristiano Ronaldo opened the scoring to help Real Madrid take the lead!
This ball was passed so well, mainly due to the ability to get rid of the ball in the midfield and attract firepower. It was almost perfect!
The stands on the sidelines burst into vigorous applause, cheering for the goal.
This goal is enough for them to sit back and relax!
If the opponent does not change their tactics, it will be difficult for them to equalize the score. The initiative is now in the hands of Real Madrid.
Sporting Gijon must catch up with all their strength...
Zidane also pumped his fist in celebration. As he expected, Bai Ran can give full play to the advantages of positional warfare on the court. His ability to pass and seize opportunities is so strong that he is not even weaker than these stars!
This is also his greatest shining point, he can drive Real Madrid's entire offensive end!
When the fans in China saw this goal, they all cheered!
"It's Bai Ran again! Bai Ran assists Ronaldo! The ball goes in!"
"Oh my god, it's unbelievable! Such a god-level performance, he is simply the best in the world!"
"Zidane looks very confident on the sidelines. Thanks to Bai Ran, his substitution adjustment is so crucial and insightful!!"
On the other hand, the opponent's players were like deflated balls. The hard work of defending for dozens of minutes was all wiped out the moment Ronaldo scored.
If you want to score, you can only change your tactics and start a counterattack.
Ronaldo showed a bright smile and hugged Bai Ran.
"Good ball! Beautiful pass!"
Teammates also sent encouragements. Some came over to hug them, some patted Bai Ran on the shoulder, and some high-fived Ronaldo. This goal restored the confidence of the entire team.
Their state also reached its peak at this moment.
After the celebration, players from both sides returned to the court again and the game continued.
The opponent's coach also noticed that after the situation was reversed, he could no longer defend blindly. If he lost one, he would still lose, and he still wouldn't get a point, so he had to attack.
So they changed their formation, and once again there were four defenders.
This also reduced the offensive pressure on Real Madrid. Faced with these players pouring in, Bai Ran actually had a headache.
But precisely because of this, Real Madrid must do a good job in midfield defense, which also puts some pressure on Modric.
Because Sporting Gijon involved several people in attacking, their backcourt defensive pressure increased and their movements became fierce. Otherwise, it would be difficult to stop them from scoring against Real Madrid's geniuses.
Benzema is conducting deep-laying organization in the midfield at this time. As an all-around forward, this is also the responsibility he must do.
He handed the ball to Isco in midfield. Isco was not in a hurry after holding the ball and just waited and watched.
Subsequently, Isco sent a pass in front of the penalty area. Benzema got the ball in the middle and was two steps away from breaking into the penalty area!
At this time, the midfielder from the side flew forward and fell to the ground directly to tackle Benzema!
This ball is not difficult for the referee at all! It's obviously a free kick!
At the same time, the ball flew from the side and fell to the ground for a tackle. Although it touched the ball first, the opponent's midfielder did not seem to close his feet when it touched Benzema.
Too dangerous!
Fortunately, Benzema was not injured!
The referee ran over, pulled away the players from both sides who were pushing each other, and then showed a yellow card to the opponent's defender!
Now both sides were honest. The referee's decision made them calm down instantly. They did not ask the referee for explanation, but just accepted it all silently.
A very good free kick from the outside of the penalty area! Let’s see what Real Madrid has planned…
Prior to this, free kicks in this position were usually taken by Cristiano Ronaldo, the team's top attacker and the best shooter.
This is also something that is commonplace.
So after Benzema got up, the first thing he did was to hug the ball and hand it to Ronaldo.
This ball is only a little over twenty meters away from the goal, and the angle is very right. It is a very good choice whether it is hitting the near corner or the far corner.
Ronaldo also took the ball from Benzema's hand, looked at the referee's guidance, and put it on the ground.
At this time, Zidane suddenly made a move on the sidelines.
Captain Ramos noticed this and communicated with Zidane.
"Huh? Substitute?"
"It's not a substitution, what? Change the free kick taker?"
"Who is going to take this free throw?"
Zidane was too far away from the sidelines, and the fans in the stands were shouting too loudly. The entire Bernabeu was so noisy that Zidane's voice was quickly drowned out.
But Ramos can see his movements clearly!
Zidane gestured with his hands for a free kick, and then gestured with 3 and 7!
37! ?
Bai Ran! ?
Ramos was shocked: "You want Bai Ran to take the penalty?"
Zidane instantly gave a thumbs up, nodded, and motioned Ramos to go talk to the players.
Ramos himself was shocked!
But he had to listen to the coach's wishes, so he came to the penalty spot and said to everyone: "Let Bai Ran take the penalty for this ball."
"What?"
Benz immediately stepped forward to pull Ramos and said: "Why? Cristiano Ronaldo is our number one penalty taker."
"Did the coach tell you this in private?"
"Or did you let it go?"
With that said, Benzema glanced sideways at Ronaldo.
The Portuguese looked very confused and looked at Ramos in confusion.
Obviously, Cristiano Ronaldo didn't know about the fact that Bai Ran was given the free kick, and he didn't give it up on his own initiative.
Even Bai Ran himself was stunned for a moment.
Could it be what the coach meant?
Ramos continued: "The coach just said this."
Cristiano Ronaldo shook his head and looked at Bai Ran. This kid did have good footwork, very high talent, and a deep understanding of football.
The assist he just sent to him can completely tell that he is different.
But when it comes to free kicks, Ronaldo never obeys anyone.
Is it okay to let this kid kick it?
But since it was the coach's wish, Ronaldo had no choice but to nuzzle and hand the ball to Bai Ran, while standing in the crowd.
"Zidane asked you to punish, come on!"
Bai Ran held the ball, feeling very excited!
Zidane actually gave himself such an opportunity, so he naturally did his part!
With a heavy responsibility, you must do your best to create scoring opportunities!
The coach believes in his own footwork too much. He still remembers that when he was playing in the Spanish Second Division B, free kicks were his specialty. In just half a season, he has already scored several beautiful free kicks!
In fact, his level and data in this area are not too high, but with the blessing of Beckham's skill card, it is still very useful in low-level leagues.
I don’t know if this can shine again in La Liga.
At this time, Bai Ran had already put the ball on the ground and took four steps back.
The audience in the stands stared at each other, a little confused!
what's the situation? Isn’t this goal a penalty from Ronaldo?
Does this kid still have free kick skills? Never heard of it before!
It seems...it was arranged by Zidane himself!
The commentator's eyes also lit up, he banged the table and said, "Dear viewers, standing in front of the penalty spot now is the 17-year-old young player Bai Ran!"
"Real Madrid's free kicks have changed! The famous free kickers in the team in the past did not take the kicks, but were handed over to this super newcomer!"
"This young Asian player just received an assist not long ago. That long pass was enough for people to see how beautiful his footwork is!"
"And as far as we know, when he was born in Castilla in Segunda B, he was famous for his free kicks!"
"Let's see if Bai Ran can surprise us with this ball!"
Everyone's eyes were focused on Bai Ran, and Bai Ran's eyes were fixed on the goal!
