Chapter 48 Real Madrid's counterattack(1/2)

Barcelona's group match was the next day. That night, Barcelona player Pique did not choose to go out and instead chose to watch the Champions League group stage in his hotel room, and Real Madrid challenged Arsenal away.

Real Madrid is his mortal enemy, while Arsenal has his best friend, so it is natural to pay attention to this game.

But his reason for watching this game was not that simple.

He also wanted to see how Chu Zhongtian lost to Fabregas.

If someone is most interested in the North London media name, Pique. He believed from the bottom of his heart that Chu Zhongtian could only be regarded as Fabregas' stand-in. This summer, when the media rumored that Real Madrid was pursuing Fabregas, he also sent a text message to tell Fabregas not to accept the invitation or go to Real Madrid, otherwise the whole of Barcelona would be disappointed.

In the end, Fabregas did not go to Real Madrid, and he was very happy. Chu Zhongtian joined Real Madrid, because it meant that he had at least two chances to defeat Chu Zhongtian every season and reported the revenge of the Champions League final.

After that final, if you want to talk about who is the most opinion on Hoffenheim and the worst opinion, it is Chu Zhongtian. Especially in the final stage of the penalty shootout, even Buzquez's venting shot was very shameless, Barcelona players thought it was a naked provocation.

It’s a pity that they couldn’t find a chance to take revenge until that game ended. If Chu Zhongtian continued to stay in Hoffenheim, who would know when he would meet him? Now, he transferred to Real Madrid by himself, and the chance to take revenge came.

Before the match between Real Madrid and Arsenal, Pique called Fabregas to cheer him up and make him be sure to defeat Real Madrid and suppress Chu Zhongtian. He is full of confidence in his good friends. He believes that besides Xavi, Xiao Fa is the best midfielder in the world.

Chu Zhongtian? He just performed well for a while.

But after watching the first half, his idea gradually changed.

Fabregas was always suppressed by Chu Zhongtian and had no performance. Arsenal's offense lacked changes in the first half and there was no threat, all because Fabregas could not play. On the contrary, the goal scored by Real Madrid was because Chu Zhongtian attracted the defensive attention of Arsenal's midfielder and then distributed the football to Ozil, which eventually led to a goal.

Everyone plays football, it is impossible to see such a thing. Chu Zhongtian's performance in this half is far less dazzling than in the Champions League final, but Pi Kui knows that his role is still important. It's just that because he has many outstanding teammates in Real Madrid, he often doesn't need to come forward in person and has retreated behind the scenes. It doesn't seem important, but in fact it's even more indispensable.

He suddenly had a trace of suspicion about his good friend.

※※The second half has begun.

Chu Zhongtian realized that Arsenal had made adjustments. In response to the isolation of Real Madrid midfielder against Fabregas, Arsenal's players were closer, so they could play various beautiful and fast short passes.

Such benefits are obvious.

Taking advantage of their kick-off, Arsenal launched an offensive at the beginning of the second half at the start of the second half.

As Mourinho said, Arsenal will definitely attack in the second half. And that time is also a chance for Real Madrid to score, because there will be more room for their defense.

Arsenal's offensive is very fierce.

Real Madrid was suppressed so much that they could only go out of the defensive.

Arsenal fans in the stands cheered and sang loudly to cheer for their team.

They seemed very depressed during the halftime break, but now they see hope of equalizing the score or even reversing.

Fabregas got the ball. When Chu Zhongtian was about to go up and press, he immediately passed the ball out. As the distance between the players was closer, his pass was faster than before, and the speed became faster, and the difficulty of grabbing the ball increased.

Chu Zhongtian only took a step forward and saw the football being passed by Fabregas, so he retreated and returned to his position.

※※※"Yes! That's it!" Looking at Arsenal on the TV, he teased Real Madrid with a quick kick, especially Chu Zhongtian. Pi Kui in front of the TV, swung his fists excitedly.

Arsenal football is somewhat similar to Barcelona football. Both are in control of the ball, emphasizing the coordination of interspersed running and passing and cutting.

However, Arsenal in the first half was restricted by Fabregas and did not show such characteristics. He relied more on Walcott's speed and Van Persie and Alshaven's personal skills to seek breakthroughs. Such individual combat poses too little threat to Real Madrid.

Once they play a whole cooperation, I believe that with Real Madrid's strength, they cannot stop it. Just like they could not stop Barcelona at the beginning!

※※※ Chu Zhongtian couldn't control Fabregas. If he robbed rashly, he would only be able to use the space behind him. So he simply changed his strategy and kept his defense. Anyway, no matter how Arsenal knocked the ball down, no matter how beautiful the pass was, they would have to hit the penalty area and return to the middle. As long as he stayed here, he would have a chance to destroy their attack.

At the same time, in order to prevent his teammates from being transferred by the opponent's continuous transmission, he waved and shouted: "Don't pounce too fiercely! Let them pass outside!"

Although he has been here for only three months, he has been able to command defense during the game.

When Arsenal fell down, the Real Madrid defensive player only put pressure on the opponent, but did not really rush out to press. He just made the opponent dare not approach easily. Arsenal could only fall down from the 30-meter area to find opportunities to come in.

Mourinho nodded when he saw Real Madrid change his defensive strategy off the court.

He saw Chu Zhongtian giving orders on the court, and of course he knew who made the decision.

This is true when dealing with a ball-controlled team. When Inter Milan faced Barcelona away, what should he do if he wanted to eliminate Barcelona without one person? The whole team retracted the penalty area and could not defend the ball, don’t have face, don’t have the scene, and you will have to end up. He defended until the end and eliminated Barcelona by a goal, reached the final and finally won the Champions League championship, which also made Inter Milan’s triple champion that season.

If I had rushed out with great energy to fight Barcelona at that time, I would probably have the degree of miserable death with my knees.

Now that Real Madrid is leading away, of course there is no need to push them out and play against Arsenal, who is also good at controlling the ball.

Anyway, this is away, so he doesn't have to worry about the negative and conservative football being booed by the picky Bernabeu fans.

As long as you can get three points, it is more important than anything else.

※※※Fabregas is indeed relaxed now because Chu Zhongtian is no longer by his side, but the expression on his face is even more serious.

Because he couldn't find too many attack paths. Real Madrid players were all huddled in the penalty area, with a large number of people and were not easily pulled out, so there were very few spaces to use.

If the other party doesn't come out, he will not be able to force the football into it.

There are three ways to use now, one is long shots, and the chance of success is too low. The second is set pieces, including free kicks and corner kicks, but Arsenal is not a team that is good at scoring with set pieces. Generally speaking, weak teams are better at scoring with set pieces because this is one of the few ways they can score. The third is to use personal skills and tacit understanding between several people, forcibly cooperate with breakthroughs in a small range, tear open the gap, and look for opportunities.

Fabregas has tried long shots before. To be honest, long shots are not a threat to goalkeepers of Casillas, especially if you clearly have to shoot long shots. Casillas has been prepared for a long shot. This kind of shot is no different from the shots in daily training.

Where is the set ball?

Real Madrid players are now very careful not to foul at the front of the penalty area, just to avoid giving Arsenal a free kick. As for corner kicks, Real Madrid's current defense is still very successful.

Then we can only use the tacit understanding developed by personal skills and Arsenal players to make small-scale breakthroughs.

Fabregas decided to take the lead and try it out once.

He received the ball about 35 meters away from the goal. Chu Zhongtian did not come up to press him, but watched him five meters away, paying attention to his movements at any time.

The situation of defending to the death is very obvious.

Fabregas was worried at first that Arsenal would attack with such a suppression, and would Real Madrid plan to counterattack again? You should know that Mourinho's Real Madrid team may be the best in the world in a fast counterattack.

But after pressing for a while, I didn't find any intention of Real Madrid to counterattack. Even Ozil, C. Ronaldo and Kaka returned to the front of the penalty area to help defend. It seems that they really plan to defend the lead with one goal.

After figuring this out, Fabregas was a little angry. Mourinho was too arrogant. Does he really think that with Real Madrid's defense line, he could defend Arsenal's 45-minute offensive at the Emirates Stadium without conceding the ball?

There is no such team in this world.

Seeing that Fabregas had been in possession for a while, Ozil came up to press. Fabregas passed the German midfielder who was very amateur in defense and then broke forward.

He rushed towards Chu Zhongtian and went, just to pull him out.

However, Chu Zhongtian did not pounce as he wished, but took a step back slightly.

Fabregas continued to lead, and Chu Zhongtian continued to retreat slightly.

Until Fabregas, the space was already very narrow. He had Chu Zhongtian in front, Khedira on the left, and Real Madrid's central defender behind these two midfielders. And what about him? He had already rushed to the front of the penalty area line, and he could continue to break through.

Fabregas didn't expect Chu Zhongtian to come up to grab the ball, so hesitated for a while and decided to continue to break in. As long as he entered the penalty area, neither Chu Zhongtian nor Khedira dared to do it again. He thought so and suddenly accelerated and rushed in.

At this moment, Chu Zhongtian also stuck it up suddenly, and did not stretch his foot to break the ball, because it could easily lead to a foul, but instead put his whole body on it, making Fabregas unable to speed up, and at the same time increasing the difficulty of his movements.

The moment Fabregas posted it on Chu Zhongtian, he once wanted to fall, but he thought it was too fake. If he was sentenced to fake fall, it would be too unpaid. This is a critical moment. If he could score a goal, why should he have to fake fall?

He endured Chu Zhongtian's close-fitting press, but he could not continue to dribble the ball in straight line. He had to be a little bit off.

If you are a little bit off, Chu Zhongtian will stick it up a little bit off. If you are a little bit off, you will stick it up a little bit. It is like a bone-attached cervix, and you can't even get rid of it.

When Fabregas found that something was wrong, he looked up and saw the bottom line not far away in front of him. He had already rushed here... It turned out that he wanted to shoot directly or seek cooperation with his teammates, but as a result, there were people everywhere in the penalty area, and he was forced by Chu Zhongtian, so he couldn't care about it... When Chu Zhongtian leaned forward, Fabregas had a strong sense of crisis. He didn't even care about anything else, and thought that he would not lose the ball. As a result, he got here.

After Chu Zhongtian forced Fabregas to a dead end, things became simple. He either forced a shot, but with such a small angle, Casillas blocked the shooting angle again, and the chance of directly shooting was very low. Fabregas is a smart man and should not choose this. Then there is only the passing.

Chu Zhongtian is in the inside line. If Fabregas wants to pass the ball, he can interfere.

In the end, Fabregas chose to pass the ball, and he passed the ball to the middle of the penalty area, but not in front of the goal, but in the back. The ball bypassed Chu Zhongtian, but was intercepted by Khedira, who had been waiting at this point for a long time.

Khedira, who intercepted the ball, did not directly kick off with her big feet, but passed the ball outside the penalty area. C. Ronaldo, who was still participating in the defense just now, immediately rushed forward through the football!

"Real Madrid's counterattack!!"

Fabregas looked back and saw C. Ronaldo's back dribbling the ball, and he felt so bad.

Isn't this the defensive counterattack that Real Madrid is best at?

Arsenal just now unknowingly pressed too far, and now there are all empty spaces in the future!

Wenger suddenly stood up from his seat, his fists tightly clenched and seemed very nervous. He knew what this meant, and Real Madrid was likely to take advantage of this opportunity to score another goal!

"Return to defense! Return to defense-!!" Amunia shouted in a long voice, waved to let his teammates come back.

All the Arsenal players were running back, and even Van Persie rushed back. They knew very well that if they fell behind two goals, it would be difficult to equalize the score against a team like Real Madrid.

"Ronaldo! Ronaldo is dribbling the ball!" The commentator also became excited.

Ronaldo rushed towards Arsenal's half with the ball.

After encountering obstacles, he did not continue to dribble the ball, but directly transferred the football to Kaka who followed up in the middle. At this time, Kaka and Ozil had completed the switch, Ozil changed to the side, and Kaka became the front midfielder.

When it is necessary to fight back, Kaka is more impactful than Ozil.

Chu Zhongtian also quickly threw Fabregas and rushed out.

His movements made Fabregas's return to defense slow down a little, because Chu Zhongtian, who actually didn't need to participate in the attack, ran faster than him, who needed to return to defense quickly... If this was the Real Madrid today, it would be terrible... Chu Zhongtian rushed up and did not help the team's attack. Because his speed would definitely not catch up with Kaka and C. Ronaldo.

The two of them were very fast and took the football to Arsenal's defense.

Kaka dribbled the ball, and Ronaldo rushed forward on the side. When Kaka encountered obstacles, he passed the ball to Ronaldo and then fucked into the penalty area. Ronaldo stepped on a bicycle, causing Sarnia to stagger, and then rushed forward, speeding up and driving the ball out.

Seeing Kaka raise his hand in the penalty area and ask for the ball, he quickly passed the football over.

Unfortunately, Kaka didn't catch up with the step, and the shot was a bit reluctant, and finally went out.

The Emirates Stadium made a huge scream. Arsenal fans had just turned their hearts to their throats, and now they were back to their original position, but they were still a little scared - if the ball was entered, the consequences would be unimaginable... In order to grab the shot, Kaka flew out, but he still didn't score. He got up from the ground and held his head with his hands, very annoyed.
To be continued...
