Chapter 267 The Magic Bird in the Corner (Second)
ps: First code two chapters and send them up. I made a calculation error. The rest will be coded after watching the match between Chelsea and Manchester City.It will probably be late, Wangtian, by the way, please ask for a recommended ticket on Monday, and a monthly pass.

Originally, according to Makelele's idea, when Gago shrank in his own half, he should focus his defensive attention on Robben, his former teammate.After all, in terms of fame, Sneijder, a junior of the Dutch national team, is not at the same level as Robben.

But just after he got his wish and Ashley Cole suppressed Robben, Sneijder on the left started his performance without marking.Long shots and quick shots are one of his strengths. In the past, he has been under the shadow of Gago, and he can only play as an engineer.Now that the first and second cores of Real Madrid's offense have stalled, he naturally took over this task.

At this time, the fans discovered that this short Dutchman was also an outstanding talent. Although he was still a little behind Gago, it was still possible to occupy a main position in Real Madrid.

No.404 minutes, Sneijder kicked the goal quickly after getting out of the way of Ivanovic.You must know that in terms of his positioning skills, he can be comparable to Beckham within a range of 25 meters.With balanced left and right feet, he can kick a beautiful arc anytime and anywhere.

Again, without Gago, he wouldn't be able to play as a substitute in some unnecessary games in Real Madrid.

The starting Sneijder in every game is cherished, because he knows that it may determine his status in this giant.What's more, this time may be the Champions League final that he may not necessarily have in his life.

Sneijder's long shot was blocked by Terry with his body, but he did not give up and swept the ball into the penalty area before Carvalho.But Cech's timely attack made Van Nistelrooy, who was going to come over and shoot, return without success.But as the boss of the Dutch gang in Real Madrid, Van Nistelrooy still gave Sneijder a thumbs up.

All of this made Sneijder's confidence soar. He knew that his strength could play a role in front of a strong team like Chelsea.

In the following time, Sneijder ran more actively, and Ivanovic had no way to face him.His long-range shots and points kept threatening Chelsea's goal. If it weren't for Terry's life-saving blocking, coupled with Carvalho's continuous filling, and Cech's high-end and low-end, Real Madrid is likely to be injured. Another goal in stoppage time.

Chelsea's players breathed a sigh of relief when referee Michelle blew the half-time whistle.They don't know how long they haven't felt this way, feeling that the goal will miss the next moment.

"It really deserves to be the team with the most goals in Europe this year!"

When Terry left the field, he looked at the players of Real Madrid and thought that since the score in the first half was a tie, the faces of both sides were not easy.Real Madrid was equalized because of the lead, while Chelsea was still panting by Real Madrid's continuous offense at the last moment.

"This is just a little-known Sneijder. He can make the team's defense so tight. If Gago, who is still above him in the name, can put him on the bench, then what is the point?" What will happen?"

As the head coach, Grant thinks more. He is thinking about the tactics of the second half during the midfield.To be honest, defensive counterattack is the best and most suitable for them, but after watching the offensive and defensive battle between the two teams in stoppage time, Grant began to feel a little worried about his team's defense.

"Frank, in the second half, you step back and defend the Dutchman. Don't let him easily organize Real Madrid's attack. Can you do it?"

Grant wanted to be on the safe side, and at the same time, Gago's silence in the first half also confused him, making him take it for granted that Ballack alone could defend against Real Madrid's real core.

Although Lampard felt that something was wrong, this was the order of the head coach, and he did not object, so he nodded and agreed.

But in Real Madrid's locker room, Schuster smiled and praised the team's performance in the first half, especially Sneijder.However, when arranging tactics, it still takes Gago as the core.

"In the second half, the opponent will definitely pay more attention to Wesley's defense. It is very likely that Lampard will retreat. If Grant really arranges it like this, then the team's organization will be transferred to Fair again!"

After Schuster finished speaking, Sneijder's face became stiff for a while, but he still nodded in agreement.What the German meant was to let him try his best to attract the opponent's defensive force, and let the opponent look away from raising their bets on Gago.

Originally thought that his excellent performance in the first half and Gago's silence would allow him to have more privileges in the second half, but who knew he would still play as Gago's wingman, which was a challenge for Sneijder who had just gained confidence hit.But he also sees Gago's performance this year. Although he thinks he can do it, after all, his status in the locker room cannot be compared with Gago, who has played the team's savior many times.Agreeing was his only option, and Sneijder believed that if he refused, there would never be a single player on his side in the locker room, not even Robben and Ruud van Nistelrooy, both Dutchmen.

"Fell, if only Ballack defended you in the second half, it should be easy for you."

Schuster was very satisfied with Sneijder's answer, and then asked Gago on the other side with a cheerful face.

"No problem, the reason why I seldom got in in the first half is to solve the battle in the second half."

For what Gago said, all Real Madrid players do not feel arrogant, they take it for granted.Real Madrid eliminated Roma all the way, captured the Red Devils, and defeated Barcelona. It can be said that Gago alone accounted for more than half of the credit. After two consecutive seasons of outstanding performance, everyone knows that this young man's strength is already at the superstar level up.Compared with Kaka of the same era, what he lacks is a Champions League trophy.

……

"Friends in the audience, welcome to watch the final of this year's Champions League, the peak match between Real Madrid and Chelsea. At the end of the first half, the score of the two teams was 1:1. The captain Raul scored a goal for Real Madrid. , and it was the team's 'magic lamp' Lampard who helped Chelsea equalize the score."

"It is worth mentioning that in the first half, Gago, the core of Real Madrid, was relatively quiet. Chelsea defended the Argentine prince very well. Ballack and Lampard in the frontcourt and Makelele in the back. , basically suppressing Gago's forward attack."

"However, the focus on Gago's transition made them lack defensive strength against the teenager Wesley Sneijder. The performance of this teenager at the end of the first half was particularly amazing, even more conspicuous than the core Gago."

After the start of the second half, the two sides switched sides and Real Madrid kicked off. After Gago received a return pass from Robben, he saw that Lampard had withdrawn to guard Sneijder, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"That idiot Grant!"

In a hidden stand on the pitch, a handsome middle-aged man couldn't help cursing after seeing Chelsea's change in the second half.

"Jose, keep your voice down, you don't want to be noticed!"

A baby-faced assistant gave the middle-aged man a hand and told him to pay attention.

If the scene camera captures this corner, I'm afraid they will turn around immediately.Because this handsome middle-aged man who yelled at him was the former coach of Chelsea, Jose Mourinho, known as "the biggest one under God".And the baby-faced assistant next to him is naturally Boas, his junior and assistant.

"While I was surprised to get Chelsea to the final, that's where Grant's achievements end."

Mourinho said very disdainfully, of course he lowered his voice. Now he is wearing a large windbreaker, with a high raised collar covering half of his face, and a hat on top of his head. Very local hat.If you don't stand in front of him, I'm afraid no one will recognize that this is the extremely arrogant magic bird.

"Why do you say that, Jose?"

As a good boy who loves to learn, Boas curiously raised his inner doubts. He thought that what Grant did was right.Withdrawing a Lampard to suppress Sneijder may give Gago room to move, but relative to the overall situation, it still has no effect.After all, Ballack's defensive ability is also good, and behind him there is a midfield barrier of Makelele.

"Do you really think a Ballack can guard Gago?"

Mourinho asked back, and the expression on Boas's face showed him that he knew that he had overestimated the insight of this junior.

"Isn't it possible?"

Instead, Mourinho, who was asked back by Boas, showed a helpless look, and then briefly explained it.

"Don't be fooled by that Argentine. Do you really think he was completely suppressed under Frank's defense in the first half? You take it for granted. Although looking at the statistics of the entire first half, he only inserted I attacked once, but it was that time that Real Madrid scored a goal. Although Raul scored the goal in the end, it was him who broke through Chelsea's defense. If he broke into the penalty area and disrupted the team's defense, let Cech do it. If there is a save, it is hard to say whether Real Madrid can score a goal."

When Mourinho said this, Boas had a thoughtful face, and the madman continued. This kind of preaching that shows his ability to be superior to others feels really good.

"I don't know if you noticed it throughout the first half. Although the Argentine was forced to go forward by Frank and Michael, his dispatching organization in the backcourt was flawless. The success rate of passing the ball was close to 100%. You haven't seen him concede the ball yet."

After Mourinho finished speaking, Boas suddenly realized that the next words did not need to be said by Magic Bird, he had already taken them.

"In the first half, it wasn't that Gago couldn't go forward, but if he went forward, under the pressure of the three of Frank, the turnovers would increase and he would be easily counterattacked. That's why he has been calmly dispatching the ball in the backcourt to control the offense. Robben and Sneijder are given the task. After all, the two of them are not so strong defensively, and they are not easy to make mistakes. And their position is higher, even if they lose the ball, they are not easy to be counterattacked."
