I am the head coach

Chapter 488
With the whistle of the referee, the game officially began.

Xue Yang is very clear that Real Madrid's biggest advantage lies in the midfield configuration.

Therefore, if Real Madrid wants to win, it must take advantage of this advantage.

With top strikers like Qin Zhen and Benzema, Real Madrid's offense will be very strong.

The first goal of the game came from Real Madrid, and Real Madrid pressed to the outside of Atletico Madrid's penalty area.

Right back Ashraf stepped in to catch the ball, but there was no good way to break through.

He noticed Modric in the middle and passed the ball to Modric.

After passing the ball directly to the penalty area, Ashraf's running position attracted Atletico Madrid's attention.

Luiz quickly defended, he was worried that Modric would pass back to Ashraf.

Before the game, Xue Yang asked the players to increase their running positions.

And Modric didn't mean to pass the ball, he chose to continue to pass to the middle.

The football passed to Odegaard near the top of the arc outside the penalty area, and Odegaard made some adjustments after receiving the pass.

Then he kicked a kick directly, and the football flew across an arc and flew towards the goal.

In fact, Odegaard's long shot is good in terms of ball speed and arc, but unfortunately the angle is not very good.

This is not difficult for the goalkeeper Oblak, Oblak flew to hold the football in his arms.

Because of the strong midfield configuration, Real Madrid occupies more possession of the ball.

Soon Real Madrid launched an attack again, and Real Madrid won a corner kick.

Modric took the corner and suddenly Benzema came up to Modric.

It gave the impression of a tactical corner kick, and Modric did make a direct pass to Benzema.

Atletico Madrid's attention instantly increased, but when the football came around Benzema, Benzema suddenly opened his legs.

The football got under his crotch and continued to roll towards the top of the arc outside the penalty area.

And Casemiro was nearby, without the slightest hesitation, Casemiro just raised his leg and shot from a long distance.

As a defensive midfielder, Casemiro has long-range shooting skills.

Not top notch, but surprisingly good.

This long-range shot Casemiro deliberately cut with his foot on the ground, and the football flew to the goal against the ground.

It's a pity that Atletico Madrid's goalkeeper Oblak is in very good form today, and he fell to the ground to make a save and put the football under him.

"Real Madrid is very active today. Not long after the game started, Real Madrid launched consecutive attacks." Liang Xiangyu explained attentively.

"It's just that Atletico Madrid's goalkeeper Oblak is in such a good state that he blocked all Real Madrid's attacks in front of the goal."

"And Real Madrid's two attacks today were all long-range shots."

"Actually, their two forwards are top-notch. If they can pass in, the threat may be even greater."

"But Atletico Madrid has a lot of people in the penalty area, and it is really difficult to pass into the penalty area."

Under Real Madrid's successive attacks, Atletico Madrid did not sit still.

Through continuous passing, they pressed to the outside of Real Madrid's penalty area.

Facing Real Madrid's pressing, Atletico Madrid passed tacitly and did not let Real Madrid steal.

Seeing that Qu Xuan had the ball, Casemiro posted it directly.

I hope that I can rely on physical confrontation to hinder Qu Xuan's dribbling.

But what Casemiro didn't expect was that Qu Xuan suddenly sent a through ball into the penalty area with a cold arrow.

The pass was so sudden that it actually penetrated Real Madrid's defense.

It turned out that Qu Xuan noticed Griezmann's running position, and he found Griezmann's direction.

Qu Xuan has also played in Atletico Madrid for a while, and there is some tacit understanding between him and his teammates.

Griezmann ran into the penalty area at the first time, and he was about to receive a pass.

However, Ruben Dias quickly realized Griezmann's running position. Although he was behind, he directly defended the past.

Ruben Dias's speed is not too slow, and he came behind Griezmann very quickly.

Ruben Dias and Griezmann had a little physical confrontation, which affected Griezmann somewhat.

However, Ruben Dias failed to touch the ball, and Griezmann still received the pass smoothly.

And Real Madrid's goalkeeper Navas was very decisive and rushed directly towards Griezmann.

Griezmann staggered slightly because of Ruben Dias' physical confrontation.

But he quickly recovered. Facing the junior Navas, Griezmann actually wanted to pass the goalkeeper Navas.

I saw him dunking the football with his right foot, trying to dunk the goalkeeper Keylor Navas.

And Navas fell to the ground decisively to save. He thought that Griezmann would hit the goal directly, hoping to save the football.

He didn't expect Griezmann to think about him, and Navas subconsciously reached out to the football.

Griezmann thought very well, but under the influence of Ruben Dias before, he made this buckle a bit weak.

Without dunking Navas well, Navas even took advantage of the opportunity to touch the football.

By the way, Griezmann was also brought down. After falling to the ground, Griezmann got up and protested to the referee.

He thought it was a foul and a penalty should be awarded.

At this moment, all Real Madrid fans held their breath, and everyone knew very well the importance of this game.

What excited them was that the referee didn't say anything, he signaled the game to continue.

This angered Atletico Madrid coach Simeone, who angrily yelled at the field.

As for Xue Yang, he calmed down a bit. In fact, he also breathed a sigh of relief.

It didn't take long for the game to start, and if Atletico Madrid got a penalty kick.

Then this game is dangerous. Atletico Madrid's defense is very good. Even Real Madrid can't say that they can definitely score.

"The referee said it was not a penalty, but it seemed that Griezmann had indeed fallen to the ground." Liang Xiangyu explained.

A slow-motion replay of the previous one was soon played, and it turned out that after Keylor touched the football, he didn't even touch Griezmann.

Griezmann turned out to be a flop, and the referee did not give him a yellow card, which is already good.

"It's not really a penalty, Navas didn't even touch Griezmann."

"The referee made the right call, but it was still very dangerous."

"Qu Xuan's pass was so quintessential that it directly tore apart Real Madrid's defense."

"After Qu Xuan came to La Liga, he has obviously improved."

"Now when I play football, I feel more and more."

Liang Xiangyu praised Qu Xuan. Liang Xiangyu commented on several Atletico Madrid games on this platform.

He is still very familiar with Qu Xuan, knowing that Qu Xuan is a very good midfielder.
