Chapter 373 Zidane's Substitution
...Heysel Stadium Stands...

Diego Simeone did not sit in the VIP stand. As the head coach of the "West Super League" Atletico Madrid, Diego Simeone has no aristocratic atmosphere.

Many people said that he was like a bandit leader, bringing out a large group of small bandits, the two most representative of which must be Diego Costa and Raul Garcia.

Diego Simeone likes to shout with the fans in the stands. Atletico Madrid fans know this...because Diego Simeone is often fined for violently protesting the referee's penalty on the field and even having physical conflicts with the referee Go to the stands.

Generally speaking, the coaches who are fined to the stands will choose to go to the VIP stands to signal to the assistant coaches on-the-spot transfer or transposition arrangements through the walkie-talkie.

And Diego Simeone is not going anywhere. After Diego Simeone is sent off, he will go to the stands behind the Atlético Madrid bench to continue to direct the game, and there he is like a musical conductor, encouraging the fans Cheering on his lads and motivating fans to put pressure on the referee by "booing".

This is the charm of Diego Simeone, he lives in the world, he is not the kind of person who lives in the sky, you can feel his charm, you can feel his temperament, you can even run to tell him: " Diego, let's take a photo together!" Diego will tell you very kindly: "Okay." Then he combs his iconic big back hair, showing a wicked smile and freezes in the photo with you .

Such a friendly and approachable head coach can always make fans more willing to be loyal to his team, just as Cerezo said: "As long as Diego is at the Calderon Stadium, then Atletico Madrid players will spend every Play a game like a final, Diego is our soul!"

Indeed, in order to keep Simeone, Atletico Madrid did not hesitate to offer a big contract, and it was a five-year big contract, in order to make Simeone the godfather of Atletico Madrid and Ferguson of Atletico Madrid.

Under the poaching of Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester City, Diego Simeone still chose to stay. Perhaps, his choice will also create his future "Atletico Madrid myth"! (Wait and see!!!)
In the stands of Heysel Stadium, Diego Simeone not only felt the enthusiasm of the Belgian audience, but also felt the subtlety of Cao Yu's tactical arrangements.

I have to say that Diego Simeone's tactics for Cao Yu really shined: This Chinese coach is really bold enough to think of "stealing" Real Madrid's goal at the beginning of the game. I have to say that this The tactics really worked!Moreover, after the battle was completed, he quickly set up the bus and set up the interception barrier in the midfield. This speed of change is enough to show that Cao Yu's understanding of tactics is high enough, and the players of the Fujixun team have high enough tactical literacy .

Generally speaking, the tactical quality of players is determined by their coaching ability. When changing formations, if a team can't do it very smoothly, or changes and changes formations, it immediately becomes messy. It's the head coach's lack of ability!
And a team that has done very smoothly in tactical execution, whether it is changing formations, changing positions, or transitioning offensively and defensively, is very comfortable, which proves that the head coach of this team has high tactical thinking and strong training ability. Tactics can be fully utilized.

In Diego Simeone's view, Cao Yu's team showed tactical quality in this game, which is even unmatched by some La Liga teams.

Although some coaches say that they are La Liga coaches, in fact, their so-called tactics would have become a mess if it weren't for the extraordinary ability of several core players in the team.

Tactics, everyone understands, the fans understand, who doesn't understand the 4-3-3 position?Who doesn't understand the offensive principle of 4-2-3-1?Anyone who has played Football Manager knows these basic tactical principles.

But understanding is understanding, understanding is understanding, but whether you can lead the team to implement the tactics and completely instill tactical ideas into the players' heads during the training session depends on the coach's command and training ability.

Even Diego Simeone, who cherishes talent, suddenly had a thought: Why not buy such an excellent coach into his coaching team? ? ?

But immediately, Diego Simeone gave up such an idea. It is very simple. Coaches like Cao Yu who are too strong in tactical execution are generally people with their own ideas. For the coaching team, it's more like luring a wolf into the house. It's like finding a time bomb for his coaching team every minute.

Therefore, it is destined that a coach with strong tactical execution ability like Cao Yu is still suitable as an opponent.

"Help me contact the club now. During the winter break, let the club arrange a warm-up match with the Fujixun team. Such an opponent is very good. Although going to China to play a warm-up match is mainly commercial, such an opponent can indeed serve us. The team brings a warm-up effect."

The "guest" assistant next to Diego Simeone, that is, the scout who discovered Li Yuming's extraordinary talent in the game against the Blue Cross of Fujixun, immediately nodded and called the club.

The club also gave Diego Simeone a temporary response: "No problem, as long as the Fujixun club is willing, Atletico Madrid can arrange the warm-up match in China during the winter break in Guangzhou."

This is how Atletico Madrid's top management supports Simeone. As long as what Simeone wants is within their capabilities, they will do everything possible to help Simeone get what he wants.

Perhaps, the rapid rise of Atletico Madrid is inseparable from this kind of well-cooperative relationship between high-level coaches? ? ?

On the contrary, some domestic club executives are not only incompetent, but also impeach meritorious coaches at every turn, or "tear each other" because of interest issues. Such a team is doomed to be unable to go well in each arena no matter how much money is spent. Farther away, therefore, club management is also an important knowledge!

After Diego Simeone's assistants by his side finished explaining to the club's top management, he also answered the phone and then talked to the top management about the excitement of the game.

It has to be said that Diego Simeone told Atletico Madrid's top management that the current score is that the Fujitsu team leads Real Madrid 1-0, which shocked the top management of the team.

As a sworn enemy in the same city, Atletico Madrid can be said to be the team that knows the strength of Real Madrid best. It can be said that from the day when Atletico Madrid established the team, they aimed to surpass Real Madrid. In the days of La Liga, Atletico Madrid did indeed They also overwhelmed Real Madrid and won several La Liga titles and Copa del Rey titles, but the total number of titles they won is still far behind Real Madrid.

This is like the gap between a wealthy family and a local rich man-the background!
Atlético de Madrid, who have worked so hard for so many years and still haven't surpassed Real Madrid in general, will definitely have to jump when they hear that Fujixun is currently leading Real Madrid 1-0. Of course, the possibility of being surprised is not ruled out.

You know, although the Fujixun team is a top team in Asia, in the eyes of a "Western Super League" team like Atletico Madrid, they are still the best of the best.

However, such a "star team" kicked Real Madrid 1-0. Although they have not yet won the game, being able to score ahead of Real Madrid is enough for Fujixun to return after the Club World Cup. The country has been proudly bragging for a while, even if they lose this game, it's okay-as an Asian team, Fujin team is not ashamed at all even if it loses to Real Madrid in the second half.

After Diego Simeone and the club's executives sighed a few words, the 15-minute intermission was basically over. At this time, some players slowly walked out of the player tunnel, which also made Diego Simeone quickly follow The executive said: "Let's do this first. We'll talk about the specifics later. The second half of the game is about to start. I have to keep watching."

Before the start of the second half, Real Madrid first made a substitution: Pepe replaced the midfielder Isco.

Such a substitution, as the rival Atletico Madrid coach Diego? Simeone immediately understood: Zidane is going to pull Ramos into the midfield!

This change was first discovered by Ancelotti last season, and it was discovered against Atletico Madrid. That game was the second round of the Champions League quarter-finals. In a La Liga match, Modric was injured and needed to be absent for 1 month. As a result, Ancelotti's midfielder position has also become stretched.

So, Ancelotti once again moved the idea of ​​mobilizing Ramos.

Ramos, who has been moved from the right back to the center back, played the role of a tactical midfielder for the first time in a Real Madrid game in that game!
And in that game, Ramos's performance really made Ancelotti's eyes shine: in the midfielder position, Ramos' offensive ability was completely released, and Ramos went back many times in the game. Threatened shots and even unexpected header attacks. Although he failed to open Atletico Madrid's goal, Ramos caused Arda Turan's red card around the 80th minute, which indirectly led to Atletico Madrid's chaos. In the end, Hernandez scored the lore goal.

Since then, Ancelotti will always make amazing changes to let Ramos play the midfielder in some important games.

Serving as a defensive midfielder, Ramos did not let Ancelotti and Real Madrid's top management down. Although he is not as good as Modric in terms of organizational skills, he still has the ability to intercept and fight in the midfield In terms of performance, Ramos is far better than Modric!

Despite discovering such a change of tactics, Ancelotti still failed to keep his coaching position. After the end of last season, the Italian was still driven away by Florentino and instead helped Real Madrid's B team Cass Tilia's head coach Zinedine Zidane took over as Real Madrid's head coach.
