Barcelona's left corner kick, Ramos's header from the penalty area was directly pushed out, and Real Madrid immediately launched a counterattack.
Yi Zhe got the ball in the backcourt, and it was only at this time that Barcelona's position changes could be seen - no one pressed up, and all three midfielders retreated to their own half.
"Real Madrid's counterattack! Haha! No Barcelona player came up to press Yi Zhe!"
The entire Bernabeu cheered like boos. Just based on Yi Zhe's reaction after taking the ball, Barcelona had already lost for a while.
"What is Luis Enrique doing? We should press forward! Instead of sitting here like a turtle! Does this guy understand the spirit of Barcelona? We are a great team!"
This scene directly caused Catalonia to break the defense. The scene of Barcelona overpowering Real Madrid has happened before. This is also the pride of all Barcelona fans. They can no longer remember who they need to be so cowardly.
But this is Enrique's tactic. When Yi Zhe gets the ball, he is faced with a defensive system of eight people waiting in the midfield. Even Alda Turan in the midfielder position has to retreat, except for Su Ya As well as Messi, who has defensive immunity, Enrique simply left Real Madrid with two complete defenses.
Yi Zhe took the ball and looked at Barcelona's position in front of him, and the rhythm at his feet also slowed down. No matter how capable he was, he would not be stupid enough to use a defensive system like frontal force. Moreover, there was no need, but he slightly raised the corner of his mouth. . Turn around and pass the ball short to Ramos.
】
Modric was still standing in the center circle waiting for Yi Zhe's pass when he suddenly heard Yi Zhe's shout.
"Luka, come back and control the ball!"
Now only short passes are needed, and there is no need to advance the ball to the midfield. If anyone in Real Madrid knows Barcelona best now, there is absolutely no second person except Yi Zhe. He has never seen Barcelona play like this. I have seen opponents put up this formation to face Barcelona.
Haha, Barcelona! Pass control?
Facing such an opponent, keeping the ball at your feet is the best option.
Barcelona never thought that Yi Zhe would deal with them like this. He controlled the ball in the backcourt for five minutes, and Su Ya was almost the only one actively counterattacking. But facing Real Madrid's complete defense, the harder he worked, the more he looked like he was climbing a tree. The monkey who picked peaches but never found them.
Su Ya did not give up. He seized the opportunity and tried to counterattack Yizhe from behind, but Yi Zhe turned 180 degrees the moment he took the shot, and the perfect Marseille spin ball passed by his side.
This time the pass suddenly accelerated the pace, and everyone thought Real Madrid was about to pick up speed, but Yi Zhe passed the ball back to Ramos.
"Yi showed perfect passing skills to trick Suarez. But..."
Medleno didn't know what to say. Real Madrid's ball possession rate soared to 72%, but Yi Zhe seemed to be waiting for the opponent to press forward. However, Barcelona's overall formation did not press forward for five minutes. Except for Su Ya, no one else The players are like spectators on the field.
Yi Zhe is indeed playing with Barcelona's mentality. A team that regards possession of the ball as its life, if it loses the ball, can it hold it back?
Yi Zhe is very confident, but the problem now is that the Bernabeu quit first. What about the passion you promised? What about the promised matchup between the ball kings? Ticket prices have increased, so why don’t you show us this?
There were already boos in the stands.
"Yi's choice is not wrong. It seems that today we need to compete with Barcelona for patience, but this is not Real Madrid's football."
But Yi Zhe was very confident. As expected, the first thing he couldn't hold back was Messi. He kept calling for his teammates to press on him. However, with Barcelona’s formation today, Alba was the first to respond to him. The wing-backs on both sides must be both offensive and defensive today.
Yi Zhe just happened to pass the ball to Carvajal. Seeing Barcelona's wing-back pressing on him, the Real Madrid defender directly took the ball and accelerated one step past Alba!
"Ouch——"
The sudden change of pace instantly revived the atmosphere at the Bernabeu.
"Cavajal starts to speed up!"
The Real Madrid full-back rushed and Alba was unable to stop him when he turned around, and Andre Gomez was obviously a step too slow to move laterally to cover, and was directly penetrated by Carvajal along the wing.
This is fatal. Enrique's arrangement seems to have temporarily prevented Yi Zhe from penetrating from the center, but it has made the wing an unsolvable Achilles' heel. Alba's offensive and defensive capabilities are among the best in Europe, but he cannot stand up to Carvajal and Bale. Two-on-one on the wing.
The Real Madrid full-back rushed to the frontcourt and shot the ball diagonally directly to Bell who crossed into the penalty area. Bell stopped the ball on his chest and volleyed in the face of Mascherano's block.
"Boom!"
The power was strong enough, but unfortunately the kick was not perfect and the angle was too right. Ter Stegen stretched out his arms like a volleyball player and lifted the ball over the crossbar with a blocking motion.
Real Madrid got the first corner kick of the opening, which was the first time they pressed forward with their formation, and Barcelona was also waiting for such an opportunity.
Modric took a corner kick, and Pique beat Benzema to push the ball out of the penalty area. Mascherano turned around and passed the ball directly to the frontcourt. Barcelona's formation quickly rebounded like a bullet, and at least four players began to rush into the frontcourt quickly.
This is Messi retreating to get the ball, and Marco Polo's kick is very accurate.
"Messi is getting the ball, Barcelona is counterattacking!"
Messi quickly passed the ball forward to Arda Turan and made the right decision in the first moment. Turan chose to pass directly into the penalty area to find Suarez, but Varane got stuck in a key position and made a clearance. The ball bounced to the outside. Messi had once again inserted it at high speed, and faced Real Madrid's already loose defense and chose to accelerate into the penalty area.
"Lao Messi——"
Everyone's focus was on Messi, and at this time, Yi Zhe had already quickly chased back and poked Messi with his foot when he was about to accelerate. This is because Messi's foot speed is far faster than that of ordinary players, otherwise Yi Zhe would have The foot can directly cause Messi to lose control of the ball.
But Yi Zhe's sudden appearance at the critical moment was enough to draw everyone's attention back.
"Yi! A crucial interception!"
"This is Yi Zhe fighting back from the frontcourt to the backcourt and completing an interception against Messi!"
But the ball was still within Messi's control. He quickly stepped sideways and stepped on the ball, while Yi Zhe put pressure behind him.
"Messi is still holding the ball, is he going to challenge Yi Zhe?"
"Yi Zai is marking Messi! This is a duel between two people!"
It seemed that only now did everyone remember what to expect from this game, but neither person on the court thought it was a one-on-one. Both of them were paying attention to the movements of their teammates around them from the corner of their eyes.
Messi saw from the corner of his eye that Su Ya broke away from Real Madrid's defense and crossed in front of the goal, sending a crotch pass with his heel.
Now this is Messi's way of playing, and perhaps everyone still misses his strength in reviewing the defense line single-handedly. But Messi has already completed the transformation, but it does not mean that his ability has become worse, just like Xavi will never be the most dazzling one in the spotlight.
So this time Messi is confident, he wants to wear Yizhe's gear!
However, the next second he discovered that the ball did not come behind Yi Zhe, but came to his side by accident. After Yi Zhe discovered Messi's little movement, he alertly stretched his legs to block it. The movement was so subtle that it could be ignored, but everyone could see the effect most intuitively. Messi's crotch piercing was seen through!
In an instant, the offense and defense changed. Yi Zhe shook off Messi and accelerated forward. When he got the ball, Messi couldn't hold him.
"Yi Zhe! Hahaha! If this is a duel that represents the times, it will be a historic scene. It may be so subtle that many people will not notice it, but the changes of the times are often in these details. No matter how great the legend is, There will be old age, and we may still be accustomed to equating Messi with the unrivaled winner, but the crown at the top of the pyramid will one day be handed over to a rising wave like Yi Zhe, and everything is happening before my eyes. "
He Wei's words are cruel, especially for Messi fans.
"Congratulations to the poet, don't use the sword of time to kill me!"
"In any case, Boss Mei doesn't need to prove it, and neither does Yi Zhe! But he really can't compare to Brother Zhe now. It can be seen just this time that he can't compare even with his arrogance."
"Yi Zhe: Can you still use the method I use to dominate others?"
Real Madrid's attack in the frontcourt was blocked again. Returning to the midfield, Modric once again put the ball at the feet of Yi Zhe.
Barcelona's defense was back to normal and Real Madrid started to control the ball again.
Zidane held his chin with interest on the sidelines. He was not in a hurry. He did not even regard this game as a national derby that he must win. He even looked forward to it. This was not the team's regular tactic, but he I want to see how Yi Zhe can control the situation today.
But Enrique on the other side began to frown. Of course he could see that this was his team's approach, but he also knew that there was no way to break the game. For a team with a strong midfield combination, it was not possible at all. It can be solved by pressing, but if you really do that, you will only be stripped of the defense by short passes, and you will lose completely layer by layer. This is the reason why he arranged the tactics like this today.
I just didn't expect that Real Madrid on the field was somewhat ungrateful and started to control the ball boringly again.
It's not that Yi Zhe had to do this. Both he and Modric tried to open up space in the middle, but Andre Gomez and Professor Bu covered too much. Modric's pass did not go through, but was almost turned back. fought back.
In the 20 minutes of the first half, Real Madrid's ball possession rate gave people a very unreal feeling, as high as 79%, but the momentum of the Bernabeu was much weaker than that of the opening game. After all, most of the team controls the ball in the backcourt. Although it is safe and risk-free, it is somewhat uninteresting.
Medlerano took a deep breath while sitting in the commentary box and smiled bitterly: "Forgive me for falling asleep. Real Madrid's pace of play is really hard to adapt to. Maybe Yi is wearing down Barcelona's patience, but we are very confident about the team." You have to have patience.”
He Wei looked at this scene and said to the fans: "Although the rhythm of the game is a bit dull, Real Madrid got 79% of the ball possession rate in front of Barcelona. This is an unprecedented situation. The rhythm is completely in Real Madrid's hands. , so I don’t recommend everyone to fall asleep now!”
This is definitely the new normal in El Clasico. Even if Barcelona's coach changes in the future, it may be difficult to stop Yi Zhe's control of the midfield.
It just tests the patience of the fans.
"What a boring game! I really want to sleep. Why should I watch Brother Zhe's game anyway? When I wake up, it's another victory. Go to sleep, brothers."
"Upstairs, what's the purpose of staying up late? Real Madrid winning is nothing new, but are you sure you're not afraid of missing any historic moments?"
"Ahhh! So I'm really confused. Why is my scumbag possessed by a dog?"
"Huh? What outrageous remarks are being made upstairs?"
…
As the game progressed, even if Enrique wanted to keep going, Su Ya's mood, which was actively running in the frontcourt, was already very wrong. More importantly, Real Madrid could accept a draw, but Barcelona couldn't afford it.
Enrique's expression was very complicated, and he found an opportunity to walk to the sidelines and shout to Alba.
"Press forward! Don't let Real Madrid get too comfortable in front of us!"
Barcelona's forward pressing has to start from the two wing-backs. The forward pressing of midfielder Gomez and Professor Bu is completely useless.
This time it was the right wing-back Digne who started to press forward, aiming directly at Marcelo, who had just returned from injury in this game. But when the Real Madrid teammate saw him pressing up, he quickly sent a pass forward and directly passed it to Yi Zhe. Then he stepped forward and gave a gesture. Yi Zhe's pass was once again passed into the open space in front. Marcelo instantly stretched his speed to the limit. Although his sprinting ability is not as good as his body's ability at its peak, the important thing is to bring up the rhythm. Another direct pass from the side.
And Marcelo also has an absolutely excellent passing ability. He saw Busquets running quickly from the midfield and stretched out his long legs towards him, glanced at the penalty area, and sent a long pass directly into the penalty area near the center line. , the arc was very high, but it passed Umtiti before Barcelona's defense line completely shrunk, and pointed directly at Benzema in the middle.
This pass is very lethal, because Barcelona's central defender is Mascherano, and Pony Ma's defensive ability in the lower three lanes is absolutely top-notch. Although his header ability is not bad, Benzema is almost It is to quickly reach the position and throw the whole body out with a charging posture to complete the competition for the top.
"Benzema!"
“Karim Benzema!
!
! "
Everyone thought this was an absolute chance. Benzema had completely taken the advantage, but the next second he fell in the penalty area.
"Penalty kick! Benzema fell!"
The entire Bernabeu thought it was a penalty kick, but the referee made a decision to raise his hands flat and refused to give it.
"Damn the penalty! Is Mr. Referee short-sighted?"
Medleno scolded him directly, but compared to him, He Wei's comments were much more exciting.
"Ah... ha! The referee thinks there is no penalty kick! Maybe the referee team is also a fan of Yi Zhe and does not allow Benzema to steal the show?"
I have to say that compared with the straightforwardness of Madrid's commentary, He Wei's questioning of the referee's penalty from a different angle was really a highly emotional act.
