235 Snow Battle
After the game began, the situation was moving towards an unfavorable aspect of Atletico Madrid.
After the opening, Dynamo Kiev made the advantage at home. With the cheering of more than 10,000 fans on the scene, he launched a fierce attack on Atletico Madrid's penalty area.
In this game, Dynamo Kiev sent a formation that was almost the same as Atletico Madrid, and the lineup they lined up was also a formation between 532 and 532.
However, the Dynamo Kiev team is more bold and aggressive in the offense. Their strong bodies have a certain advantage in this snowy weather.
Most of the players in Dynamo Kiev are Ukrainian players, while a few foreign players are also Eastern European players. Although they are not very good at technical aspects, they are definitely good at physical matters.
In fact, it is also very interesting to say. Originally, Dynamo Kiev should be a very technical team in former Soviet football. In the past, they were the only teams that could pass the ball at low altitudes, but it may be because of economic reasons. Dynamo Kiev has never had much money, so naturally they cannot introduce high-level foreign players.
Although there are several players from Brazil in their team, they are all third-rate players and have never been selected for the Brazilian national team.
But even so, these foreign players have helped their team a lot. Only with such technical players can Dynamo Kiev can the Dynamo Kiev launch their technical football.
In fact, the situation of Dynamo Kiev this season is not very good. Although they are old strong teams in the Ukrainian league, their status has also been strongly challenged by the Donesque Miners. Dynamo Kiev in the league this season has fallen behind.
So they can only hope to make a breakthrough in the European game. You should know that Dynamo Kiev has always monopolized the Ukrainian league championship, but suddenly a team broke the rule of Dynamo, which is something that Dynamo fans don't want to accept.
The fans are so realistic. When it is coherent, it is natural to say that if they cannot win the championship, the fans will naturally vent all their resentment on the club.
Mark's right is mainly two players who defended Dynamo Kiev, one is their attacking full-back Moroccan Kaduri, and the other is their forward Verpakovsky.
Especially Verpakovsky, the striker from the small football country Latvia is not tall, about 1.75 meters away.
But his movements are quite flexible, and if Mark can defend him in this game, he often runs to the right to organize the offense.
Verpakovsky is a hero who can reach the finals of the European Cup in 2004. The most "unforgettable" name for Verpakovsky is the Turkish. In this European Cup qualifiers play-off, Latvia defeated the third place in the World Cup 3:2. It was Verpakovsky who scored two of them. The swipe in the game against the Czech team will become a classic in the history of Latvian football.
Although the league he plays in may not be very famous, this player is obviously a representative of practical players, and Mark has to pay more attention to this flexible striker.
But the bad weather made Mark feel very uncomfortable. Mark has not found a good state in the first ten minutes of the game.
Maybe the weather is really too cold. Although the players have done sufficient warm-up movements before the game begins, it is still very awkward to be on the court.
After all, what technical teams fear the most is the impact of the season. This damn weather is really not suitable for playing football. People like Mark who have lived in Northeast China since childhood also feel a little uncomfortable, let alone others.
Atletico Madrid had only passively beaten in the first half, and finally had the opportunity to counterattack, and would be easily interrupted by Dynamo Kiev due to cooperation issues.
Otherwise, the players of Dynamo Kiev used their strong bodies to compete with Atletico Madrid. Anyway, the result was not that Atletico Madrid lost the ball, or that Dynamo Kiev made a foul.
However, the players of Dynamo Kiev obviously don't care about fouls. Often, this time it just finished the foul, and the next time it will be another foul.
The players of Atletico Madrid have a headache. This has destroyed the continuity of Atletico Madrid's defense and offense, and completely interrupted the state of Atletico Madrid. If the team is not in good shape, even if they have good skills, it will be useless.
In the 30th minute of the first half, Atletico Madrid pushed the ball out of the penalty area, Van der Fate turned around to catch the ball, and then Mark quickly inserted on the wing to prepare for the ball.
Dynamo Kiev's Brazilian midfielder Lincon shoveled Van der Fate to the ground like cutting a tree. Van der Fate was rolling on the ground with his legs in his arms.
Players' muscles are in a tight state when they are too cold. In such a situation, confrontation is easy to be injured, while Van der Fate's own health is not good.
Van der Fate had an injury before, so after this time Mark's heart skipped a beat, "It's broken, you won't be hurt anymore, right?" Mark thought in his heart.
"You beast, are you playing football?" Mark immediately ran over and pushed Lin Kong.
Lin Kong didn't seem to be very radical. He did not push Mark away very roughly. He just walked into the half of Dynamo Kiev.
"Are you guilty? Little Dwarf?" Mark said to Linkon behind him.
However, Mark spoke Spanish, Lincon, and he might not be able to understand it, because Lincon is Brazilian, and Brazilians speak Portuguese.
"How about brother?" Mark asked around Vanderfart with concern at this time.
"Not really good, I feel that this game cannot continue," Van der Fate moaned on the ground while holding his legs and moaning.
Soon the Atletico Madrid team doctor came to the stadium, and the team doctor asked Van der Fate a few words and made a substitution gesture to the bench.
"No, Jorge, please prepare." Cooper saw that the team doctor had already made a substitution gesture and had to replace Van der Fate with Jorge.
In fact, Cooper originally wanted to replace a midfielder. He knew that the players of Atletico Madrid today seemed to be in shape, but Cooper still wanted to have one person in the midfield to be able to hold the ball when counterattacking, so Jorge appeared on the court.
This sudden incident also made Jorge unprepared for a while, because Jorge did not make much preparation time. Although Jorge also did a warm-up move, it didn't take long after all.
However, Cooper's substitution has been made, and Jorge can only seize the time to move his body as much as possible on the sidelines. He knows that these players on the court are not that easy to deal with, and he will definitely become the target of the opponent's focus of pressing after he comes on the court.
Jorge has lost his main position this season. If he wants to have more opportunities to play, he must seize any opportunities. His performance on the court will satisfy head coach Cooper.
So even if Jorge's warm-up was not completed, he had to pretend to be confident, because this would give head coach Cooper a good impression.
After Cooper selected Jorge, Corsa, a midfielder, seemed a little unnatural. Corsa's mouth moved. He seemed to have something to say, but for some reason, Corsa did not speak. Perhaps he felt that head coach Cooper didn't want to hear different opinions.
In fact, Colsa is also a tragic figure of this season. Before, when Mark played as a midfielder, Colsa has always been a substitute. Finally, Colsa hopes that Mark will play as a full-back, and he can finally play as the starting position.
But the head coach has been replaced, Cooper takes office, and he also brings his Argentine fellow villager Mascherano. Although Mascherano's strength is much better than Corsa, after all, Corsa misses his previous main position, rather than the substitute player at this time.
The referee gave Lin Kong a verbal warning after Van der Fate got out of the court, and he didn't even come up with a yellow card. This is the tone of this game.
It seems that the referee will be very light on the fouls for physical contact in this game, which is very beneficial to the Dynamo players, because they are players who rely on their bodies to make a living.
"Okay, aren't you not giving yellow cards to physical confrontation? Then I understand." After Mark saw the referee's actions, he thought to himself.
Atletico Madrid won a free kick in the backcourt, but after Dynamo Kiev's players had retreated, Atletico Madrid obviously had no chance.
Mark dribbled the ball on the side and slowly moved forward. As the snow was still falling at this time, the snow fell on the field, making the turf of the court very slippery, which made it even worse at controlling football.
Mark's ability to control the ball is still very average, so Mark lost the football without taking a few moves, and soon got the chance to Dynamo Kiev.
Dynamo Kiev mainly relies on their two sides to make passes and attack, and then find Shaskih to compete for the header at the front point in front of them.
At the same time, their midfielders were in time to compete for the second landing point and then got a long shot. The goalkeeper was even more difficult to control when the football was slippery, especially Atletico Madrid's substitute goalkeeper Martin was not very experienced.
So Dynamo Kiev wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to score early, and Martin really cooperated with Dynamo Kiev, and he didn't dare to catch the ball at all. Every time Dynamo Kiev's long shot, he hits the ball out of the goal.
If Martin receives the ball, he will definitely be a loser. If Barboro had not kept the guard of Shaskich firmly in the penalty area, Atletico Madrid might have lost points.
In the fifth minute after Van der Fate left the court, Dynamo Kiev found it was not easy to open the situation on the right side defended by Mark, so they also put the main pass point on their right side, which is Atletico Madrid's left side to attack.
Although Lopez is a good full-back, all the players who have made him suffer from repeated impacts against Dynamo Kiev.
Because Lopez does not have the speed of Mark's start, and he is very uncomfortable with the weather in Ukraine. Even if he is already a member of the Spanish national team, he has never played games on behalf of the Spanish national team in such a cold place, so his defense is very difficult.
Dynamo Kiev made another cross from the right, and Baboro and Shaskih headed the ball for the header. Baboro resisted Shaskih's position, but Shaskih's position this time was good. He grabbed the football directly and headed the ball back to the midfielder Lin Kong.
The header this time was very strange. Perhaps because of the slippery relationship, he bounced on the ground. Atletico Madrid's midfielder Lu Xin did not intercept the football this time.
Originally this should be in Lusin's area. Lusin and Mascherano should be in charge of the middle, but this time he did not get football, which gave Lin Kong a very good opportunity to shoot a long shot against the goal.
After seeing the football flew over, Lin Kong directly raised his feet and prepared to shoot from a long time, but he suddenly felt a red figure flashing over, and then he felt a huge pain hitting his feet. Lin Kong fell to the ground and then rolled on the ground in pain with his legs in his arms.
This expression is 90% similar to the previous Van der Fate. If I didn't watch the team uniform, I would have thought it was the replay just now.
"You bastard, what are you doing?" The Dynamo Kiev players also ran over and rushed towards Mark.
When Mark saw this situation, he couldn't help but smile in his heart. It was a little similar to Mark's reaction just now. Although Mark couldn't understand what they were talking about, Mark could clearly feel the anger of these players.
"Shh!!!" The fans of Dynamo Kiev, who were in the stands, booed in protest, which was their dissatisfaction with Mark.
"You can foul, can't I foul?" Mark muttered.
However, the players on both sides quickly separated them, and the referee also ran to Mark. This time the referee showed Mark a yellow card warning.
"Pay attention to the movements under your feet, and don't fouls for the purpose of hurting the players!!" The referee said to Mark very sternly.
"I'm unfair, I'm going for the ball." Mark didn't care after seeing the referee give him a yellow card to warn him, and was still talking to the referee with a grievance and saying the foul he just now.
In fact, Mark just did it on purpose. Mark had never found a good opportunity to help Van der Fate take revenge. This time Mark should have found a good opportunity.
Although Mark knew that this foul would give Dynamo Kiev a free kick, Mark also felt that it didn't matter.
Because Mark doesn't know what kind of free kick masters Dynamo Kiev will have, even if they give them a free kick chance, they may not be able to score the football.
"You go!!" Lin Kong was also carried off the stadium by the Dynamo Kiev team doctor, and Mark also said with a wicked smile.
Of course, Mark's words were not heard by the referee. If the referee heard Mark's words, he would not know what kind of punishment he would give him.
In fact, Cooper told the team before the game that they should try to give Dynamo Kiev as little as possible free kicks, because in Dynamo Kiev, they had two black men with excellent free kick levels.
One is their central defender Gavlancic, and the other is their midfielder Belkevich.
Although these two players are unknown compared to other players of Seihei, their free kicks are also inherited from their seniors of Seihei and they can both send free kicks of good quality.
Moreover, because the football is slippery, it is easy for the goalkeeper to lose his hand. If Martin really loses his hand, the melee in the penalty area must be something Dynamo Kiev hopes to see.
Soon, this free kick will be taken by Belkevich. Belkevich of Dynamo Kiev is not the Israeli who once played for Manchester City. He is a Serbia player.
Belvic directly shot, and the football crossed the wall and then flew towards the player. Martin's reaction was very clever, so he flew directly to the football.
However, because the football is relatively slippery, he was able to get the football, and the players on both sides in the penalty area started to intercept chaoticly.
Gavlancic, who is 1.91 meters tall and 86 kilograms tall, is definitely an air dominant figure. He inserted into the back row of Atletico Madrid's penalty area and jumped up to grab the spot and find the bargain.
The football flew directly into Atletico Madrid's goal, and Atletico Madrid actually fell behind in the score at the last moment of the first half.
After scoring the goal, Gavlancic was also extremely excited because this was his first goal this season. Although Gavlancic is a central defender, he can score goals every season, and the goal this season has not arrived for a long time. Unexpectedly, his first goal was actually in such an important game.
So after scoring the goal, Gavlancic celebrated with the fans of Dynamo Kiev who cheered at home, as if this goal could help Dynamo Kiev win.
