Chapter 618 Everyone Wants to Be the Protagonist
For example, this time, Lin Dong did it. When Ramos rushed past, Lin Dong decisively moved forward, directly cutting off Ramos' desire to compete with him.
After Lin Dong moved one step forward, if Ramos was in front of Lin Dong, no matter how defiantly he bounced, he would not be able to hit the ball, and he would be riding a tiger. In this case, Ramos would not be able to retreat even if he wanted to.
On the other side, Costa's position is already empty, that is to say, as long as Lin Kin can pass the ball to Costa, then Costa is almost single-handed.
Things will be so smooth?Of course it is impossible. At this moment, the tacit understanding between Pepe and Ramos is undoubtedly revealed, and the level of today's top central defenders is even more vivid.
When Lin Dong stepped forward to block Ramos' route, Pepe, who had been entangled with Lin Dong, retreated, and the retreat was quite fast. When Lin Dong knocked the ball to Costa, Pepe was already in the penalty area and became the last line of defense against Costa.
But Atletico Madrid's offense didn't stop there. When Costa faced Pepe, Lin Dong who landed also attacked Real Madrid's penalty area. Although Ramos chased back desperately, he was still slower than Lin Dong in terms of speed.
"Pass the ball~~~" yelled, but unfortunately, Lin Dong's yell did not get Costa's pass.
Then the ball drew a beautiful arc, um~~~ For Real Madrid, the ball was much higher than the goal and flew to the goal-side stands.
"God~~~ Atletico Madrid wasted a great almost, Costa, if he passed the ball to Lin Dong instead of forcing the shot himself, maybe Atletico Madrid would have taken the lead."
Originally, Costa's single-handedly fell through because of Pepe's retreat, but Lin Dong had already rushed forward, and he also threw away Ramos. If Costa passed the ball at the last moment, Lin Dong would be replaced by single-handedly.
However, there are no ifs in the world of football. Costa has already shot, and the ball has already flown into the stands. The Atletico Madrid striker also looks annoyed at this moment.
On the sidelines, Simeone waved his hand with a gloomy expression. When Lin Dong turned around and rushed towards the Real Madrid goal, Simeone also rushed to the sidelines, but what was waiting for him was Costa's forced air begging.
After being depressed, Simeone didn't return to his position. He hugged his hands and stared at the retreating Costa, with a trace of doubt and incomprehension in his eyes.
From the beginning of the league to the present, Costa has been partnering with Lin Dong, and the tacit understanding between them has also been initially established. Lin Dong even played for Costa many times.
Thinking of this, Simeone shook his head directly, and then expelled these things that shouldn't be thought in his mind. Now it's the Madrid derby, and he has to focus all his direct attention on the game.
On the court, Real Madrid is already attacking the hinterland of Atletico Madrid, and Isco is holding the ball. In this game, Isco can be said to be the only mistake in Simeone's prediction of Real Madrid's starting lineup.
No matter how you look at it, Modric sitting on the bench is more suitable than Isco, no matter in terms of technical tactics or personal ability, but Ancelotti chose Isco in the end.
In fact, Ancelotti's choice is not difficult to guess. Modric was introduced by Mourinho last season. Mourinho wanted to bring Modric to Chelsea this summer, but he failed.
Isco is a new transfer to Real Madrid this season. He is young, has a shallow foundation, and is a native Spanish player. Such a player is most suitable to be cultivated as a confidant.
Although going to Isco was a bit unexpected, Simeone will not take it lightly. After all, he is also a super genius in La Liga. He is well-known throughout Europe, and Isco was also one of the best players in Real Madrid in the previous rounds.
At this moment, Isco, who is holding the ball, also showed why he can occupy the starting lineup in the Madrid derby. Facing Thiago, Isco used an extremely beautiful continuous change of direction to deceive him.
Then he cooperated with Illia Lamendi to hit the wall, entered the hinterland of Atletico Madrid, and soon came to the outside of the penalty area, and still hit the wall. Benzema covered him, entered the Atletico Madrid penalty area smoothly, and completed his first shot in this game.
However, Isco's shot was directly confiscated by Courtois, and after catching the ball, Courtois rushed out quickly, deliberately passing by Isco, his eyes full of provocation.
Speaking of the grievances between the two, we have to talk about the selection of the Golden Boy Award a year ago. With his outstanding performance, Courtois almost set a record and became the first Golden Boy goalkeeper. But in the end, because of his natural weak position, he could only watch Isco win the award.
Well, the small grievances between the two are actually just a small episode in this game. Although Isco soon broke into the Atletico Madrid hinterland again, and his second shot in the game, it did not affect the score on the field.
As for Atletico Madrid's offense, Real Madrid's defense is actually quite successful, especially Ancelotti's arrangement of Khedira and Illarramendi's defensive midfielders, in order to target Atletico Madrid's offense and limit Lin Dong's role in the front.
Pepe and Ramos worked together to limit Lin Dong, while Khedira and Irjaramendi retreated at any time to make up for it. After Lin Dong still pushed the ball to the point where he almost created a single shot, Khedira and Irjaramendi did not dare to go too far.
I have to say that the fate of the two protagonists is really similar today. Atletico Madrid has also been very successful in defending against Ronaldo. In addition, they are strictly restricted. In order to restrict Ronaldo, Cork even gave up attacking.
So during the opening period, the real protagonists were the other players of the two teams. You must know that the confrontation between Lin Dong and Ronaldo was the biggest highlight of this derby.
After all, the grievances between the two are no longer a secret. The biggest reason why Lin Dong can't stay in Real Madrid is because of Ronaldo. The two who are extremely similar in some aspects are destined not to coexist peacefully.
Some people even robbed the show very successfully. Costa from Atletico Madrid was the only focus of Costa's derby at 23 minutes of the game.
It was still Isco, the success ahead made him a little carried away, but when he attacked Atletico Madrid with the ball again, the ball was broken.
Atletico Madrid's captain Gabi, when Isco was about to eat Thiago alone, the Atletico Madrid captain saw the right time, sprinted out from the side, and shoveled the ball away with a flying shovel.
Counterattack, Atletico Madrid's best offensive method, the ball that was tackled and flew fell at the feet of Felipe, who immediately gave it to Turan.
A direct pass, a long-distance direct pass, since the opening, Atletico Madrid is the first time to walk on the ground instead of in the air. It is conceivable what will happen to Real Madrid when Turan sends this direct pass to Real Madrid.
