Chapter 233 Filling of Space (Daily Transition)

“The changes in tactical tendencies in recent years have been too complicated.”

"As a result, the proportion of late adjustments in the competition among the five major leagues is increasing."

"Especially Mainz coach Tuchel, who took the lead in starting this trend two years ago."

“During the game, the coaching staff and players have to think about how to solve the problem.”

"Formation structure, width and depth, rotation tendency, etc."

Coach Zhang sighed.

Football cartoons and films are not deceiving. The protagonists often need to burst out with energy or use divergent thinking to resolve adversity.

The Etihad Stadium tonight.

Gao Qi is the big devil.

James Rodriguez is the poor protagonist who suffers a lot and must find a way out.

time flies.

The lagging Galaxy Battleship is still "not in a hurry or slow".

Modric and Kroos worked hard to solve the problem of passing the ball in the midfield and backcourt, and tried their best to help Real Madrid launch a progressive offensive chain.

But once the ball comes to James' feet.

The entire offensive rhythm suddenly slowed down.

Zidane on the sidelines was so angry that he crushed a mineral water bottle.

Real Madrid's assistant coaches also wanted to protest: James Rodriguez has achieved excellent statistics of 10 goals and 8 assists in the La Liga so far, but most of these data were obtained in games where he abused weak teams.

If we still play like this against Manchester City now, how can we play?

Ancelotti was unmoved.

He has his own ideas.

Continuing with the tactics used in the first leg will not defeat this Manchester City team!
In positional attack, James Rodriguez's way of slowing down the pace was not a mistake.

Studio.
-
[Is Real Madrid not good at independent attacking? Gao Qi almost scored a goal again during this period. ]
-
[James Rodriguez lost the ball five times and Real Madrid's defense was beaten by Gao Qi to the point of losing their spirit! ]
-
【We were three goals behind in the total score and couldn’t play in the low post.】
-
[This Real Madrid team wants to solve the problem of independent attack, and there are two ways: when Isco is on the field, the Spanish Messi will explode head-on; when James Rodriguez is on the field, he will organize the attack. ]
-
[Why don't you replace James Rodriguez? It makes me so anxious. ]
-
[I think Ancelotti's idea is very simple: Kroos and Modric are organizers, and James is the creator. ]
-
[I don't agree with this view. Khedira is no longer good. Real Madrid does not have a top defensive midfielder and cannot unleash the creativity of Kroos and Modric.]

The 30th minute of the game.

Varane blocked De Bruyne's pass in time, and was secretly frightened when he saw the approaching Manchester City striker.

It was almost over.

Gao Qi turned around and gave De Bruyne a thumbs up.

De Bruyne waved his hands, indicating that his passing and running ideas were not unified.

Kompany and Benzema were also chatting.

"You ask James to pass the ball to you, don't think too much, that guy plays like a commander."

"None of my business!"

Dead ball phase.

Assistant coach Zidane called James Rodriguez to him and said seriously:

"Watch Modric's movement."

"It develops more towards the right rib."

"Seize the opportunity and pass the ball to Ronaldo!"

His face was anxious and his tone was gentle.

At this moment, Zidane is more like an audience member who wants to jump into the movie and give guidance to the frustrated protagonist.

There's no time to go into detail.

He hopes that the Columbia geniuses can understand the meaning of these three sentences, so as to break the impasse and solve the problem.

Why some problems can never be solved? Because the people who solve them are also the ones who create them.

James Rodriguez had a complicated expression and nodded vigorously.

The game resumes.

Carvajal throws the ball in.

Modric turned around and used the outside of his foot to pass the ball, easily getting rid of Aguero.

He started advancing with the ball again.

"James Rodríguez's thinking was very clear. He took the initiative to move to the right and expand the width of the attack."

"How simple, Marcelo is also on the left, so we can change the formation to 352."

"This time, it may be Modric who decides the tempo of the attack."

The Croatian advanced with the ball diagonally.

The entire Galaxy Battleship's defense line finally dared to move forward boldly.

It was unclear what Varane and Gao Qi were talking about, and they were a little slow in pressing forward.

Forty-meter area.

Modric and Carvajal played a one-two on the right.

Keep going.

James Rodriguez quickly left the right and turned to the middle to fill the space.

Snapped!
"Modric's cross!"

"J Luo!"

"What a great opportunity! You can pass the ball to Ronaldo or Ben."

Bah!
The Colombian genius chose to shoot himself!

The ball penetrated Manchester City's defense.

Joe Hart moved sideways and held the ball steadily!

There was thunderous applause from the stands on all sides.

"A very intimidating kick!"

"Real Madrid's attack is gaining momentum."

"James has found a way out."

"A genius commander will not let the Galaxy Battleship sit and wait for death!"

James Rodriguez raised his arms vigorously, signaling that the cheers from the away stands should be louder!
Everything is under control.

There is still a lot of time in the game, all that remains is to break the deadlock and reverse the situation!

Courtside.

Manchester City's assistant coaches were terrified and quickly started a discussion.

Pellegrini looked calm.

"James Rodriguez was outstanding and had a clear idea of ​​how to break through the game."

"But we have the more talented Gao!"

Gao Qi cannot solve Manchester City's defensive problems.

But he can solve Real Madrid's defensive problems.

The other side.

Ancelotti hunched over and applauded.

Zidane touched his bald head with satisfaction.

There is hope.

Real Madrid fans in the away stands chanted "Hala Madrid".

Rebuild your confidence and there is still hope!
The morale of the entire Real Madrid team has risen.

Only Varane had mixed feelings.

During this period, he and Gao Qi talked about everything from Hegel to Hayek and finally the tactical changes of the game.

It is normal for players from both sides to chat on the field.

But Gao Qi didn't say a single word of trash talk, which had already broken the heart of the French talented central defender.
Varane regretted it very much. Why did he talk about tactics with this guy?
Especially Gao Qi’s words, “You’d better not fill the midfield space.”

It almost made him lose touch with the midfield.

A few minutes later.

Manchester City struggled to establish a pass in the backcourt.

David Silva did not fight with Modric, and passed the ball to the Chinese star as soon as possible.

"Yup!"

“Don’t think so much!”

"Pass the ball well, do a good job of delivering the ammunition, and let the top strikers solve the problem!"

Gao Qi received the ball on both lines at Real Madrid.

Use your body to support Khedira.

Pull the ball to avoid Kroos's kick.

Snapped!
The football flew off the ground, drawing a "∩" arc.

“Nice lob pass!”

"Aguero!"

"Single sword!"

The 1.7-meter-tall Argentine striker nimbly slipped through the gap between Ramos and Varane like a loach.

next moment.

He showed the style of a top scorer.

Facing the falling football.

Swing your legs.

Volley!

The football seemed to be equipped with rocket boosters.

Flying towards Real Madrid’s goal!

Navas subconsciously stepped back but it was too late.

Real Madrid's goal was penetrated.

2:0! ! !

"Killer Nature!"

"Aguero, the super striker who came out of the slums of South America."

"Gao Qi's exquisite assists are the top fulcrum in European football."

"Manchester City has expanded their lead!"

"The Galaxy Battleship is four goals behind in the aggregate score and is in a desperate situation!"

Aguero rushed to the corner flag area and slid on his knees to celebrate.

The blue ocean at the Etihad Stadium continued to churn.

Real Madrid fans felt lost.

I couldn't believe what I saw.

Navas thumped the turf in pain.

Varane was confused.

C Luo clenched his fists unwillingly.

Studio.
-
[Is it that easy? Another goal! ]
-
[I thought James Rodriguez was going to show off his power, but he was blocked by Gao Qiping? ]
-
[The two-round match system is so cruel. If you fall behind in the first round of the knockout match, your tactical choices in the second round will be very passive. ]
-
[Impossible! There is no way any club can slaughter Real Madrid! ]
-
【Ah? Last week, Atletico Madrid beat Real Madrid 4-0. 】
-
[How can this Manchester City team have the defensive toughness of Atletico Madrid? 】
-
[The game is not over yet, I still say the same thing: everyone wait patiently for 60 minutes, Bale will come on as a substitute to harvest the remaining blood. ]

time flies.

50 minutes.

Ancelotti made a substitution. The fourth official raised the LED number board.

"Bale replaces James Rodriguez!"

"The Galaxy Battleship has made adjustments!"

James Rodriguez walked dejectedly towards the nearest sideline.

Bale bent down and adjusted his shin pads with a determined look in his eyes.

Zidane kept giving instructions in his ear.

The Welsh superstar nodded, trotted onto the field, and made a few gestures to his teammates.

"BBC team all show up at Etihad!"

"Can Bale, who is full of energy, turn the tide? Let's wait and see!"

Ancelotti hugged James Rodriguez as he walked to the bench.

Comforted: "Good kid, it's not your fault, there is a problem with the coaching staff's deployment."

The Italian coach's coaching journey has been full of ups and downs.

It is not uncommon for the first mover to be exploded.

James Rodriguez nodded, sighed, returned to his seat, and looked at the green field with red eyes.

The game resumes.

Bale is a top student who debuted in Southampton's youth training camp.

Strong tactical awareness.

While sitting on the bench, he kept thinking about how to break Manchester City's flat rhythm.

James Rodriguez's previous running tendency gave the Welsh superstar inspiration.

"Bale's movement is essential."

"Seeing that Varane and Carvajal did not follow Modric's diagonal pull and press forward, he tried to stay parallel to the midfield line."

"This can not only make up for the local numerical disadvantage, but also allow us to have sufficient space for sprinting in depth."

“The ball is lost!”

"Bale, without the ball, prioritizes squeezing Manchester City's offensive space on the wing."

"Pretty!"

Coach Zhang doesn't want to brag.

But Bale, who was originally a full-back, provides too great an offensive and defensive advantage to the Galacticos.

There is no time to describe too many changes in the scene.

The ball changed hands again.

The BBC has caught a breakthrough on Manchester City's right flank.

Quickly pass back and cut back.

"Ah! The double defensive midfielder combination of Yaya Toure and Fernandinho was blown up!"

"There's no way to stop the BBC."

"Wow."

"Cristiano Ronaldo!"

"A determined look!"

"Nuclear explosion!"

"The ball is in!"

"The game isn't over yet! The Galaxy Battleship hasn't given up the game!"

"The unyielding will is spreading wildly!"

No Siu~siusiusiu!

Ronaldo did not celebrate.

The BBC combination rushed towards the net almost at the same time, picked up the football and ran towards the center circle.

The score is still behind.

You must hurry up!

Pellegrini on the sidelines thought the game was over and was planning to replace Gao Qi to let the Chinese superstar rest.

At this moment, he quickly stopped the teaching assistant who was about to hand over the exchange quota.

“This game is not that easy.”

"Real Madrid's physical advantage is coming out."

Zidane called Varane over this time.

Anxiously speaking in French.

Fortunately, Varane is a talented French central defender and has no language barriers.

"Stop chatting with Gao. Do you want to butt your forehead against his chest? Don't care what he says!"

"Gao Gao didn't talk trash to me."

Gao Qi did not extend his hands to his teammates in the backcourt.

Instead, he made speed-up gestures to the Blue Moon offensive players.

The damage-average rhythm and positional defense cannot limit the complete form of BBC.

Next.

Continue the attack!

Accompanied by the cheers that rose and fell like waves at the Etihad Stadium.

The scene became more and more intense.

The ball passed back and forth.

The Blue Moon and the Galacticos significantly reduced the transition in the midfield and attacked each other's penalty area frantically!

The 68th minute of the game.

Aguero got rid of Khedira who turned a little slower like a loach.

Deliver a sharp and exquisite oblique pass.

Zabaleta took one touch.

The football flew sideways towards the penalty area.

Gao Qi took a big step forward to push Varane aside and made a diving header!

The football brushed Navas' armpit and flew into the Real Madrid net.

3:1! ! !

"Two goals!"

"Ittihad's hero!"

"Unstoppable Gao Qi!"

"He forcibly suppressed the momentum of the Galaxy Battleship!"

Studio.
-
[In this case, how many goals does Real Madrid need to score to reverse the situation and advance? 】
-
[Don’t calculate it, it’s too complicated! ]
-
[The rhythm suddenly quickened]
-
[A few years ago, Varane and Gao Qi were known as the "two heroes of the front and back courts". But tonight they kept making stupid mistakes and were beaten. ]

The 78th minute of the game.

Demichelis made a long pass from Manchester City's backcourt, and the ball bounced off Kroos' calf.

Benzema fought with all his might, retreating towards the out-of-control ball.

Bale also burst out with terrifying speed, running diagonally and standing at the forefront of Real Madrid's formation.

Ronaldo made a fake run and then stopped suddenly to fool Kompany.

BBC, without the ball, once again took advantage of the gap in Manchester City's defense.

"here we go again!"

"Benzema back heel!"

"Bale faked a shot and dunked it, the movement was very large, but he still managed to pass the ball to Ronaldo!"

"Small restricted area!"

"Twelve-digit nuclear explosion!"

Bah!
Ronaldo's thighs, full of explosive muscles, are like a taut rubber band.

A hard slap.

The football turned into a black shadow and blasted open Manchester City's goal!

3:2! ! !

Another person scored twice!

Happy Beans players and neutral fans from all over the world couldn't help but shout along.

It's so enjoyable.

Gao Qi and Cristiano Ronaldo, two top shooters, competed with each other for goals.

They complement each other.

The scene became more intense.

Players from both sides ran like crazy, regardless of their physical strength, as if they had forgotten the total score.

The cheers intensified.

The flags are flying.

Pellegrini and Ancelotti were shouting excitedly in the command area like young boys.

Zidane wished he could take off his suit and play himself.

BBC wants to score more goals.

The best way for Blue Moon to resist BBC is to score more goals than them!
Fight until the last minute of injury time.

Kompany took advantage of the slowdown in Real Madrid's pressure and decisively kicked the ball in the backcourt.

The football flew towards the center circle.

He jumped high and headed the ball.

De Bruyne came in from behind and touched the ball.

A small rainbow close to the ground reappears at Etihad!

Khedira's movements were distorted and he was unable to stop the agile Aguero.

"Danger!"

"Ramos stood up and blocked the Argentine striker!"

"The ball hasn't been lost yet?"

"It's a chaotic fight!"

"The football rolled to Gao Qi's feet again."

"Heavy artillery!"

"The rainbow penetrates the sun!"

"Ittihad God of War, Gao Qi!"

4:2! ! !

Varane was in tears.

There were bursts of crying from the away stands.

In the eyes of Real Madrid fans: the star-studded protagonists of the Galaxy tried their best but still fell at the feet of the evil villain Gao Qi.

finally.

The referee blew the whistle to end the game.

Manchester City total score 8:4 Real Madrid!
The Blue Moon of the Gao Qi era advanced to the quarterfinals of the Champions League!
