Although Real Madrid launched such a fierce attack at the beginning of the game, it was unexpected for many people, but George and his players were obviously not among this group. After all, there are no one knows how many teams want to score first through a strong attack at the beginning, thereby gaining a score advantage, forcing Tottenham to take the initiative in the following time, unable to use their best and most threatening tactics. Defensive counterattack tactics. Therefore, Tottenham players were not surprised by Real Madrid's actions. Under the command of Ledley King, everyone quickly organized the defense line and prepared to deal with Real Madrid's first wave of offensive after the opening!
Maicon pressed forward immediately and blocked Carlos, using his strong body to force his Brazilian compatriot to be unable to continue dribbling the ball. Facing Maicon's close pressing, Carlos behaved in a very embarrassed manner. Not only was he unable to use his signature speed to forcefully break through the opponent's defense, but he was also forced to the sideline by Maicon and could not move. Real Madrid's attack also came to a standstill because Carlos was forced into a dead corner by Maicon!
Single-handedly covering the entire left wing, he was able to perform at the top level on both offense and defense. Carlos at his peak was indeed worthy of the title of the world's number one left back. Now, although the 32-year-old Carlos is still very threatening on the offensive end, his aging and declining physical fitness have made his performance no longer so stable. Especially when Carlos's desire to participate in the offense has not diminished at all, Real Madrid's left defense often becomes an area where opponents can roam because of his relationship!
This time, Carlos, who couldn't get rid of Maicon's defense, tried to break through the gap between the sideline and Maicon. However, he lost his balance due to the physical confrontation and was outflanked by Gerrard. Taking the opportunity to steal the ball. After successfully completing a steal, Gerrard immediately passed the ball to Alonso in the middle and counterattacked!
Alonso once again showed his excellent long passing skills in front of people. With a precise overhead pass, the ball instantly spanned half the field and flew straight towards Robben, who successfully countered offside and was advancing at high speed along the left wing!
If Robben receives Alonso's pass and cuts inside, Tottenham's counterattack will become a one-on-one goal. With Robben's strength, it is absolutely impossible for him to miss such an excellent scoring opportunity!
At this critical moment, Helguera stepped forward, and saw the central defender knocking the ball out of the sideline before Robben, which brought Tottenham's quick counterattack to an abrupt end and perfectly resolved this defensive crisis!
Seeing Helguera successfully disrupting Tottenham's attack, the stands at the Bernabeu Stadium burst into cheers - you know, just now, when Real Madrid fans saw Alonso's long pass fly accurately to Robben At that time, their hearts had gone through a big test, so they had reason to celebrate at this time.
Although Helguera is not well-known in the Real Madrid team, and his form cannot be compared with when he won the La Liga championship with the team two years ago, the Spanish international is the most stable and best player in Real Madrid's current defense. Indispensable players - Salgado and Carlos are more and more strong in offense and weak in defense due to their age. Although Ramos is young and energetic, he is prone to being out of position defensively. Compared with them, Helgra, who still has eight goals in his peak period and mainly focuses on defense, is obviously more trustworthy and reliable!
Of course, this stability is only relative. As a central defender transformed from a defensive midfielder, Helguera is best at this kind of interception, especially high-altitude balls, so he can destroy Tottenham's attack in such a timely manner - if Alonso passes If it is a long pass like Rui Costa or Miku, then Helgra will be blinded!
While Real Madrid breathed a sigh of relief, Robben expressed strong dissatisfaction to Merck - he believed that Helguera's defense was suspected of fouling, and the referee should have awarded Tottenham a free frontcourt. ball!
In response to Robben's complaint, Merck just smiled and shook his finger, signaling the Dutch Peter Pan to go to the sideline to serve a throw-in - the Germans saw it clearly. Although Helguera knocked over Robben when making a clearance, the Spaniard hit the ball first and then knocked the latter down due to inertia. This was not intentional and did not cause any serious consequences. There is absolutely no need to impose additional penalties on him.
"Okay, Alger, calm down!" Seeing that Merck ignored his complaint, Robben suddenly felt a rush of blood rushing to his forehead. Just as he was about to step forward to continue arguing with the opponent, he was hit by the quick-eyed Drogba. Pull him and drag him away, "This is not the place for you to lose your temper! Isn't it just that a counterattack failed? Next time, wouldn't it be better to seize the opportunity and prevent them from destroying it in advance? If you play against a team like Real Madrid, you Do you think we will lack such opportunities?"
"You're right, Didier. I was too impulsive." Drogba's words entered Robben's heart and stabilized Peter Pan's originally impatient mood, allowing him to regain his composure. " Indeed, the game has just begun. I don’t believe that Real Madrid’s broken defense can perform so well throughout the game!”
Seeing Drogba's move, George nodded with satisfaction. Unlike Robben and other talented players who have always had a smooth career and rarely suffered setbacks, Drogba, who has been with mid-to-lower teams for many years, obviously understands how to deal with people better and will not provoke referees for the slightest disagreement.
However, I don’t know whether it was God or the old man who suddenly appeared, or whether the goddess of luck favored the Galaxy Battleship today. Before Robben could turn their bold words into reality, Real Madrid took the lead in knocking on Tottenham's goal - in the 12th minute of the game, Beckham received a ball from Dela Red at 45 degrees. From the corner pass, Ronaldo succeeded with a header five meters in front of the goal, which he was not good at, and scored the first point for the Galacticos!
Ronaldo's goal is a boost for Real Madrid. In the previous ten minutes, although the Galacticos had maintained a very fierce offensive, Tottenham's sharp counterattacks and long-term offensive situation continued to consume their momentum. Now seeing that their efforts have finally paid off, this kind of mental encouragement is enough to make them forget about their physical fatigue!
So, after the game restarted, the morale-boosted Real Madrid players immediately launched a fierce attack on Tottenham's goal, and five minutes after Ronaldo opened the scoring for Real Madrid, they once again relied on the inspiration of the team's superstars to let everyone The gate was lost - this time to Roberto Carlos' powerful free-kick from thirty meters out. The ball fired by the Brazilian drew an extremely obvious arc in the air and flew into the goal guarded by Cech under the stunned gaze!
Two to zero! Less than twenty minutes into the game, Real Madrid, playing at home, unexpectedly took a two-goal lead over Tottenham Hotspur, the defending champion and one of the favorites to win the Champions League this season!
