"Robben! It was Arjen Robben who scored the goal! A very beautiful solo pass!" Since the red-blue battle between Chelsea and Barcelona was more gimmick and more eye-catching, Sky TV did not include it this time. The ace pairing of Andy Gray and Martin Taylor were sent over to commentate on the game between Tottenham and Real Madrid, but instead they invited Redknapp Jr. and Pat Jennings to commentate together, "It's really unexpected. situation! Congratulations to Tottenham! Now they are leading Real Madrid 1-0 at the Bernabeu Stadium! "
Robben's goal was like a powerful sedative, making the originally bustling Bernabeu Stadium suddenly extremely quiet. Only more than 5,000 Tottenham fans who traveled with the team to Madrid gathered in a corner of the stands and celebrated the goal ecstatically!
At the same time, Tottenham's bench was also in a state of excitement. Everyone was celebrating on the sidelines, as if they had forgotten that the game was far from over!
"It doesn't matter, Real Madrid is only one goal behind now. There is still a lot of game time. As long as Zidane and the others can take it seriously, they still have great hope of winning this game." Looking at the excitement in the stands of the Bernabeu Stadium, Only Tottenham fans beat gongs and drums to show their excitement. Real Madrid's commentator's words were full of bitterness and could only say some comforting words to cheer up himself and Real Madrid's supporters. But soon, his attention was diverted by the scene on the court, "Wait a minute, something is not right... Why hasn't Salgado stood up yet? Could it be that when he defended Robben just now? At that time, his old knee injury recurred?!"
You know, this is not impossible. Because Salgado played with injuries in this game. His old knee injury and previous thigh strain did not heal well. Just now, Robben used his speed to hit him forcefully. The Spaniard, who used all his strength in desperation, is very likely to suffer a recurrence of the injury!
Thinking of this possibility, the hairs on the commentator's body suddenly stood up in shock - although Real Madrid is known as the Galactic Battleship and the team's lineup can be said to be star-studded, when it comes to the depth of the bench, Florentino has insisted on it over the years. Real Madrid, which proposed the "Zidane + Pavin" policy and ignored the accumulation of reserves of blue-collar and role players, simply cannot compare with when they won the Big Ears Cup in Glasgow two years ago!
This means that if Salgado leaves the field early due to injury, then Real Madrid's right-side defense will inevitably have a huge vacuum!
Seeing Salgado lying on the turf unable to get up, with a painful expression on his face, Luxenberg couldn't help but secretly screamed that something was wrong. Obviously, the Brazilian coach also knows very well that once Salgado really leaves the game early due to injury, it will be a heavy blow to Real Madrid's already extremely fragile defense!
Although Rosenborg kept praying that things would not go in the worst direction, unfortunately, after some emergency treatment but found no effect, the Real Madrid team doctor still signaled to the Brazilian that Salgado could no longer continue. Keep playing!
"What the hell!" Seeing the diagnosis result of his team doctor, Luxenberg cursed secretly, and then replaced Salgado with teenager Raul Bravo. However, it is really difficult to predict what effect Luxenberg's substitution adjustment will have. You know, although Raul Bravo is a versatile backcourt player who can play almost any position in the midfield and backcourt, the terrible thing is that he is deeply influenced by Carlos and has a very obvious tendency to focus on offense and light defense. , defensive ability and enthusiasm are quite average. With Bravo's ability, it is difficult to resist the attacks of Robben and others!
However, this is also Luxenberg's helpless move - who made Salgado have an accident now, and Raul Garcia is the only substitute in this vote? If not, Rosenborg would not dare to replace a defender like Bravo, who is only the main player of the La Liga relegation team, in a key battle related to qualification for the Champions League quarter-finals.
Sure enough, after the game restarted, Raul Bravo's performance was as disastrous as a disaster - under Robben's impact and Alonso's deliberate targeting, his defensive ability was neither satisfactory nor Salgado's. Bravo, who has the spirit of "Desperate Saburo", cannot defend his defense zone at all, and can only let Robben gallop in front of him, or use fouls to prevent the opponent from going further!
It has to be said that although he has never coached in European football and his character has been questioned due to scandals such as tax evasion and bribery, Luxenberg's skills as a head coach are still quite good. After seeing that the right wing guarded by Bravo was riddled with holes by Tottenham, the Brazilian coach did not consider how to make up for the defensive holes on the right wing. Instead, he waved the flag and ordered the players to attack across the board!
In Luxenberg's view, there is really no need to save Real Madrid's defense, which is leaking like a rag. Instead of spending a lot of energy on the defensive end that may not be effective, it is better to maximize your strengths and avoid weaknesses, give full play to your own advantages, and devote all the remaining energy to the offense!
The power Real Madrid can exert when they devote themselves to attacking is extremely terrifying. Although Zidane, Figo and others are already old and their physical fitness and physical fitness are far from their peak, don't forget that this was the Real Madrid team in their previous life. In the second Spanish El Clasico of the 04-05 season, Defeated the heyday of Barcelona 4-2!
Although Tottenham's overall strength is not inferior to any top giants, no matter how talented they are, Tottenham's players are always far behind Real Madrid's superstars in terms of game experience. Therefore, in the face of Real Madrid's fierce offensive, Ledley King and others still showed an immature side - they were worried that their door would be breached by Real Madrid and concentrated on defense, but involuntarily ignored the frontcourt. The support of Robben and Ronaldo!
The result of their doing this was that Tottenham, which had the upper hand in terms of physical strength and score, was actually given the initiative by Real Madrid!
In the 41st minute of the game, Zidane sent a through ball to the left rib of the penalty area. Carlos took advantage of his advantage and passed the low ball in front of Stephen Karl. Vidic fell to the ground five meters in front of the goal and shot with his left foot!
However, it seems that the sluggish competitive state has affected the feeling of shooting. Although the "Lord of the Rings" goalkeeper shot was powerful and fast, and was only five meters away from the goal, the ball did not fly into the door guarded by Cech, but bounced after hitting the crossbar. Come back!
If it weren't for Ronaldo's follow-up shot in the penalty area, which tied the score at one to one, then Raul, who missed this scoring opportunity, would probably be sprayed with blood by the picky Real Madrid fans!
