It will soon be the 25th, which is also the second day of the Toto Cup final. Atletico Madrid will face Dortmund at its own home court.

"In the last game, Atletico Madrid tied with Dortmund at home. Now Dortmund has come to Calderon Stadium. I believe that they have lost the cheers of the home fans and will not cause any storm." The commentator also boosted morale before the game. [bsp;    "Young men, today will be the most important game of your season. Although the new season has not started for others, it has already begun for us Atletico Madrid, and it has also reached the time for the final battle. Now this game is related to whether we can enter the League Cup qualification. This is an honor that Atletico Madrid has not felt since relegation. What we have to do now is to prevent our opponents from scoring goals at our home court. I understand whether we have understood." Ferlando is now starting to boost the morale of the team before the game. He is also implementing the team's current tactical ideas and defense.

"I know, sir." All the players now yelled and rushed out of the locker room, because they had been waiting for nearly half a month just to prepare for this match against Atletico Madrid.

Now Dortmund's players are also rushing out with high morale. The players of both sides are now appearing in the player channel together to prepare for the appearance.

"I will definitely beat you in this game," Kyle said to Mark now.

"Oh..." Mark didn't know what he meant. If Kyle spoke Spanish now, maybe Mark could understand a rough idea, but Mark had never learned a word in German. He would only say hello.

Now that Kyle saw Mark's expression, he suddenly understood it. He realized that Mark couldn't hear German clearly, so he said everything just now in vain because Mark didn't know what it meant.

Now it seems that Kyle can indeed be described in one word, that is "囧". He wanted to show Mark his determination just now, but he didn't expect that he did not know Mark's language skills as well. Now he had to stand there awkwardly because there is still a while to open the ceremony.

"Is this kid sick?" Mark thought to himself now. He didn't know what Kyle said to him just now, but Mark's expression at that time shouldn't be bad. However, Mark was not sure what he meant, so he didn't say anything randomly. If he seemed very enthusiastic now, he wouldn't it look a bit fake.

However, players from both sides soon entered the court, and the game officially began after the referee's whistle sounded.

In this game, Dortmund sent all the main lineups. Didi, who was sent off by a red card in the last game, was replaced by Jensen and did not make any other changes after appearing.

Atletico Madrid's lineup has not changed much. Except for Van der Fate who took leave, who did not play, Musampa replaced him, all the other players were in the lineup against Dortmund in the last away game.

"Let's cheer for the Athletics, this is a game about European qualifications, and the League Cup is also a game we need." Atletico Madrid now has several leading fans shouting.

These fans are mainly concentrated in the South stand, because the South stand at Calderon Stadium is a place where Atletico Madrid's absolute hardcore fans watch the game. In fact, many clubs have such stands.

After the opening, Atletico Madrid also placed the main forces in the midfield according to the arrangement of the head coach, and then tried to recover the defense line and did not give Dortmund a chance to counterattack. Dortmund's lineup now does not have the ability to counterattack. Eveton has been completely limited, while Jankoler is in good condition now. It is probably half a month of rest and adjustment that makes Jankoler full of energy now.

Now Jankolo continues to rage in Atletico Madrid's penalty area, but Baboro obviously learned from the lessons of the previous game and began to seriously study Jankolo's defense. Baboro's defense is not as difficult as the previous game.

However, the current situation is that when the two defenses are fighting for physical strength, it depends on who can't stand the other party first, that is, the other party wins.

The most important thing now is naturally Mark's defense of Dortmund's front midfielder Rosici. After the opening, Rosici is no longer limited to organizing the offense in the middle. He is more likely to pull to the side to participate in the attack. Now Mark's head coach has not told Mark to keep all his strength at the control of Rosici, so Mark does not do Dorosici to press in close proximity.

Now, Rosici has shown his superb offensive organizational ability without Mark's full-game press. Rosici is now constantly cooperating with his teammates on his left and then breaking through and crossing.

Atletico Madrid's right-side defense is obviously under great pressure, and the current situation on the field seems to be slightly tilting in a direction that is favorable to Dortmund.

Although Mark's current position is very good, he still cannot move around after all, because the current head coach of Ferlando specifically told Mark that he must stay in his position, so Mark now only needs to watch his defense on the wing, and there is no way to do so. As Mark's partner, Simeone has now gone to make up for the position.

As an experienced midfielder, Simeone is still very good in terms of strength, so now he has tried his best to delay Rosici's offensive rhythm after he has passed.

But Simeone is very old after all, so his current defensive ability can no longer completely limit the young Rosicky. Rosicky's speed is not slow now, and his movements and frequency are very fast.

Simeone is also very ineffective in keeping with Rosici now.

And now it is not only Rosici player, but also Eveton cooperates with Rosici. Atletico Madrid's penalty area is simply in panic, but even so, Atletico Madrid's goal was not broken. Franco now showed his outstanding form and made world-class defenses continuously, saving the football from the baseline.

"Wow, Atletico Madrid seems to be in danger now. Their current offense seems to have been completely suppressed by Dortmund. Is this a question of the experience of the European League?" The commentator also said worriedly. He is indeed very worried about Atletico Madrid's situation.

"After all, you still have no experience in European competitions, and most of these players have not played European competitions. At the most critical moments, sometimes you still need experience to win," Van Marvik said now. He is indeed a little proud, because now his team has indeed many players not only participated in the League Cup, but also participated in the Champions League.

Van Marvik also led the team at Feyenoord for many years, and he almost always led the team to participate in European competitions every year, so I don’t know how much better the Dortmund team’s experience is than Atletico Madrid.

But can you win by just experience? This is definitely not possible. First of all, the strength of the two teams cannot be too different. However, although Dortmund has not introduced many players this season, their best scorer Amoruso went to Spain and the team's strength has been weakened to a certain extent. However, the main players on all lines are still there, and Eveton has been able to replace Amoruso's position in Dortmund.

Van Marvik believes that the reason why he lost to Atletico Madrid in the last game was entirely because his team was too tired. Now, after half a month of adjustment, the team's physical fitness is in good condition. It is basically impossible to have a physical overdrawn situation like the previous game.

So now Van Marvik believes that he must be the one who won the game in the end, and Mark will regret his mistakes, because Mark rejected Dortmund's initial offer. Although Van Marvik does not understand what the inside story is, Van Marvik is now stubborn that if Mark joined Dortmund from the beginning, many Tmund's board of directors could bring Mark in directly.

Instead of making a plan to give up the introduction of Mark in the middle, if Dortmund now has Mark, then in the midfield, he would be Mark Gakele's combination, so that Van Marvik could command the offense calmly, because Dortmund had surpassed all Bundesliga teams in the midfield defense.

Unfortunately, Mark has not come now, and Van Marvik has turned Mark's love into hatred. In fact, sometimes people are so strange. Originally, Mark was Van Marvik's favorite player, and he really wanted Mark to coach Mark under his hands. But after not having this opportunity, Van Marvik became like finding an opportunity to teach Mark a lesson.

So now Dortmund avoided Mark's defense and moved the offensive direction to the flank, which is also the tactics Van Marvik had arranged before the game. Before the game, Van Marvik considered the role Mark played in the midfield.

Moreover, Van Marvik thought that Mark is the most important part of Atletico Madrid's tactical link, so he must have Mark defended Rosici. Maybe he thought that Mark would focus on Rosici in the last game.

If that were the case, Van Marvik would be another way of playing, but what makes Van Marvik happy now is that Mark still stayed in the middle and did not come out to defend. Perhaps the head coach of Atletico Madrid is worried about the defensive loophole in the middle.

"This is great. Just look at our wing attack. Atletico Madrid, you must not have imagined that our wing attack is powerful." Van Marvik was also very proud of the situation on the field. He felt that his tactics were very successful. As long as the team can stick to their tactical style, he would definitely win the game.

"Defend, defend him, now you have to defend him and don't let him pass the ball easily." Ferlando shouted on the sidelines again. He felt that his pre-game arrangement seemed to have failed, and Dortmund did not attack as he expected before the game.

Originally, according to Ferlando's expectations, Dortmund would definitely attack through the two wings, and as long as they kill their passes on both wings and the giant center Jankoler who defends Dortmund, it would definitely be able to resolve Dortmund's attack. Moreover, Mark's defense in the middle just restrained Rosici, but the current situation was not what he expected.

Rosici is now more free on the court, and he often runs to the wings to break through and organizes, so Dortmund's players have to organize his attacks with fouls. Now, in only ten minutes of the game, Dortmund has already won three free kicks.

Things are not very good now, so the threat on the Atletico Madrid defense line of Dortmund can be said to be very huge. Ferlando thinks it is not a good idea now, so he must adjust his tactics by himself.

"Mark, you go and guard Rosici, let Diego return to the middle to defend." Ferlando has made tactical adjustments now, and there is no way to do so. Now he let Simeone return to the middle and then let Mark defend Rosici. As the head coach, he wants to change on the spot. Obviously, Ferlando has made the right choice now that he thinks he has made.

An interpreter shouted Ferlando's words to Mark on the sidelines. Now Mark did know the change that the current head coach required. Mark nodded and expressed his understanding. Then he took advantage of the opportunity to replace Simeone with the position of the dead ball and ran to his right side to assist his teammates in defense. Of course, his main task is to defend Rossica.

"Come on, you are a slutty man," Mark came to Rosici and said.

"What does it mean?" Rosici doesn't know what Mark means now. This is a language barrier, so he basically doesn't understand what Mark says now. Rosici's performance on the court is also very dedicated, so since he can't understand Mark's words, he won't think about it, and he also began to concentrate on starting the game.

"Thomas, you know how to do it." Now Van Marvik saw Mark start defending Rosici and he began to prepare to change his tactics.

Rosici now nodded at Van Marvik and understood that after Mark defended Rosici, the current Dortmund offensive system changed suddenly. Rosici basically stopped receiving the ball and did not participate in the offense.

"It seems that Dortmund is ready to play with Atletico Madrid," the commentator looked at Dortmund's tactical arrangement on the field and said to the audience in front of the TV.

The current situation on the court is indeed as the commentator said. Dortmund's offensive players have indeed deliberately ignored Rosici, as if Rosici was not a core of the offensive organization.

"What does this mean?" Mark now also thought to himself that he watched the attacks of Dortmund's current players not pass by Rosici. Rosici basically rarely touches the ball now, as if he was a spectator on the court. Sometimes at most it was just a mid-pass station to touch the ball, but it was rare in this case.

"When doing well, now we will limit the players with the best defensive mobility, and then we can continue to attack." Van Marvik now thought proudly in his heart.

This is another tactical arrangement before the game, that is, if Mark is marking Rosici against Rosici throughout the game, Rosici will start to reduce the touches and then let the rest of the players attack. In this way, although the team lacks Rosici's organizational offense, the current Dortmund players will definitely be better in cooperation than Atletico Madrid, which is still running-in.

Eveton on the left and Ricken on the right are also constantly rushing to Atletico Madrid's defense line, making the current Atletico Madrid players' defense line recycled again and again. The current Atletico Madrid players have all retreated to their half-time, leaving only one Torres as a striker waiting for the attack in front.

However, Atletico Madrid now has no chance to hold football, so Torres seems very lonely in the frontcourt, and he doesn't have many opportunities to get the ball. Moreover, since Dortmund has two players double-teaming him, Torres doesn't have many opportunities now.

"Oh, hold on..." Ferlando saw that there was no better way to perform on the court. Now he could only pray that the team could hold on, preferably until the end of the half. If he could still hold on to such a score in the second half, Dortmund would definitely be a little impatient, and at that time Dortmund's offense would become more panicked.

As a very cautious coach, Ferlando still dares not gamble. At least he now believes that the team still has the strength to defend these attacks.

Now Eveton once again broke through on the left and came to the penalty area. The right back of Atletico Madrid has been passed by him. He can now shoot directly, but he did not choose to shoot, but continued to break into the penalty area.

Mark is now seeing Eveton's current situation and is also hurried to make up for the position. Because the two central defenders at Atletico Madrid are not in good positions, so Mark will definitely not allow Eveton to score.

At this time, Atletico Madrid's central defender Peña also ran over, but it was obvious that he was not Eveton's opponent. Eveton passed Penia in just a few strokes. Eveton is now preparing to shoot.
Chapter completed!
