Today's game is the second home game of the season at Riazor Stadium, and the fans' mentality is completely different.
When facing Málaga in the first game, the fans had lingering fears. After all, the opponent was a Europa League team, and they were only a newly promoted team.
But since the 5-2 victory over Malaga and the 3-0 victory over Levante, Depor fans are full of confidence!
What about Malaga, what about Levante, we are not afraid!
We want to fuck Barcelona! Real Madrid! Atletico Madrid!
And in this game, their wish finally came true.
After the referee's whistle sounded, Depor players pressed forward aggressively and attacked Atletico Madrid's defense like crazy!
"Riquelme and Ronaldo passed each other, and Cai Huikang was protecting them."
"Gabby rushed towards Ronaldo! Ronaldo passed to Riquelme beside him, and the Argentinian made a long pass!"
"Wu Lei accelerated to respond! Godin collided with him! The referee signaled for the game to continue. This is not a foul!"
"Depor's attack is up again! This time it's Ronaldo's performance! He shook off Costa who was on the attack!"
"Pass the ball to Belleron! Belleron took two steps and went straight into the penalty area! Berbatov turned and shot! The ball slid out!"
Just five minutes into the game, Depor created two threatening ball opportunities, which shocked the visiting fans in the stands into a cold sweat.
The midfield position at this time is the key area for the confrontation between the two teams. Cai Huikang's defensive area is huge. When Atletico Madrid's four midfielders pass the ball, the fans in the stands always feel that Cai Huikang can be seen everywhere. In order to get around this guy, Atletico Madrid has been walking wide for the past few minutes, wanting to be farther away from the opponent's Hua Guo midfielder.
In Atletico Madrid's camp, Zhao Curi's performance was also very positive. From the beginning until now, except for Riquelme's pass to Wu Lei, basically Riquelme has not had many opportunities to pass the ball. Zhao Zhuri has perfectly implemented Simeone's request.
But Simeone discovered a problem.
Something is wrong with Depor today, it seems that Riquelme is not the core!
Now that the game has been played for more than 20 minutes, Simeone has already seen that Depor's technical core today is Belleron!
Riquelme is a cover!
Simone guessed it right, and it was true.
Zhao Zuri, who was responsible for defending Riquelme at this time, was also a little confused now.
It stands to reason that I have guarded Riquelme, and I have a certain advantage in the physical confrontation with him. During this period of time, he has basically not had a good chance to pass the ball. But why is Depor's offense still so fierce? Is their technical core not Riquelme at all?
While the Atletico Madrid general was pondering secretly, the Depor coaching staff on the sidelines were chatting easily and were very satisfied with the current situation.
Because of the current situation, they had expected it.
Before this game, Riquelme put forward his opinions to the coaching staff and teammates during the pre-war team training session.
"I had more opportunities to perform in the first two games. Now my opponents are paying special attention to me. In this game, I face Atletico Madrid. They are known as the best defensive team in La Liga. They will definitely keep a close eye on me. In this case , we need to form a dual-core complementary situation, and I suggest that Belleron become another technical core."
Hearing what Riquelme said in the tactics class, Yun Sheng frowned. He looked at Belleron and thought for a moment: "If a dual-core is formed, who will give control of the team's midfield? Or? Just the two of you improvising?"
Riquelme nodded: "Boss, you are right, I just want to perform on the spot. Whoever of the two of us is marked more lightly will be the helmsman of the team and the other will cover."
Belleron agreed with this view: "I think it makes sense. I can be a deputy core. If Riquelme controls the rhythm, I will move forward and act as a pure shadow forward, giving full play to my shortcomings." Passing and attacking ability; if Riquelme is restricted, then the number of troops they invest in me will be reduced. At that time, my position will be appropriately retreated, and then I will push Ronaldo forward and let him and Wu Lei and Berbatov continues to form a three-forward formation, with me organizing the attack."
Ronaldo nodded hard: "I can do this. I can adapt to all positions in the midfield and frontcourt."
Looking at the players discussing tactics, Yun Sheng on the side smiled: "The last classical master in international football and the outstanding midfield master in Spain. With the two of you in my team, I think I am a good head coach. Done, haha. In that case, I agree with your point of view, so let’s do it!”
The tactics have been discussed and this is how they will be executed in this game.
Now that the time has reached 30 minutes, Deportivo still has a large advantage.
Especially in the midfield and frontcourt, several consecutive offensive combinations are very threatening.
In the 35th minute of the game, Depor once again made a wonderful counterattack.
This time it was Atletico Madrid's tough attack. Falcao's powerful volley was blocked by Lucio with his body. Although the Brazilian center back is not as fast as before, his strong body is still the best in the world.
The ball fell at the feet of Felipe, who came forward to assist, and he quickly advanced with the ball!
Facing this guy who defeated Jiang Zhipeng in the competition and was called the top three left backs in the world by Atletico Madrid fans, Cai Huikang was decisive and put his foot down!
This front tackle is very beautiful!
Although Felipe fell to the ground, the referee did not say anything, and Atletico Madrid players also understood that this defense was not a foul.
Cai Huikang took the ball ahead of Rodriguez, and Riquelme received the ball accurately.
Zhao Zhuri came up again, followed closely by Riquelme!
The Argentinian frowned. This Chinese defensive midfielder is really difficult to deal with...
He didn't stick to the ball, but still passed forward briefly and handed Belleron.
The moment Belleron caught the ball, he turned around and knocked the ball with the instep of his outside foot. In just one move, he swayed away the oncoming Juanfran!
This is a great opportunity!
He took a few steps forward with the ball and pushed the ball forward in a straight line before the central defender could grab it!
Berba moved flexibly and blocked Miranda with his body!
Pull the ball to the outside and have a shooting angle!
Kicking and volleying into the near corner! The ball went in! ! !
In the 35th minute of the game, Depor, who had been attacking for more than half an hour, finally scored!
1 to 0! In the match against the defending champion, Depor opened the scoring and took the lead!
The home team fans in the stands cheered and shouted wildly!
They are so excited!
Although the team has won two consecutive games in the first two games, now when facing an opponent like Atletico Madrid, their team still controls the game and takes the lead!
At this time, the home team fans in the stands shouted loudly!
"Double Champion!"
"Double Champion!"
"Double Champion!"
The sound shook the Riazor Stadium, and countless Depor fans lit up the dark night sky of Depor!
