Chapter 373
After the first Mid-Autumn Festival in a foreign country, although there is no lively atmosphere like in China, it is still a good time to spend with a group of friends.Although there were some things in the middle that made Yan Feng less emotional, after all, those things were beyond his consideration.
Yan Feng temporarily suppressed that thought, and turned all his mind to training.There are some things that you can’t change, so just be yourself and let yourself use better performance to help the team move forward as you expect.
A few days later, Granada ushered in a strong opponent at home.A team that makes Yan Feng want to win more than Real Madrid and Barcelona-Atletico Madrid.
Last season, at Granada's home court, Yan Feng and his teammates were beaten by Atletico Madrid.In that game, Yan Feng scored one goal, but the overall strength was not as good as they were scored three goals by Atletico Madrid.
In that game, Yan Feng worked hard, but he was still powerless.Yan Feng was very unwilling to lose to the Atletico Madrid team.Yan Feng always remembered this fiasco, and now it's time for revenge.
Another reason why Yan Feng wants to win is that Atletico Madrid ranked No.3 in La Liga last season.If you can't beat Atletico Madrid and want to challenge Real Madrid and Barcelona, it can only be a dream.Therefore, this competition is not just as simple as revenge.In Yan Feng's heart, it is a threshold that must be crossed before challenging the status of Real Madrid and Barcelona.
"Brothers, our test is here. Atletico Madrid, No.3 last season and still No.3, is the touchstone of our upper limit. Everyone must go all out. Beyond them, we will reach a higher sky. "Before the game, Yan Feng actively instilled in his teammates the belief that he wanted to win the game.
Regardless of the fact that Atletico Madrid has been the third in La Liga for the past few years, they were lucky enough to surpass Real Madrid and Barcelona to win the championship in the 13/14 season.
Therefore, Atletico Madrid has always been regarded by the outside world as the strongest team in La Liga except Real Madrid and Barcelona.To win Atletico Badri, the pressure is still quite high.
"It's not easy to win against Atletico Madrid. We lost to them at home last season. They don't show any signs of declining this year."
"They are no better than Real Madrid and Barcelona. To be honest, I am really not sure that I can beat them at home."
"Just try your best. It is estimated that the possibility of a draw will be higher."
"With the inertia that we often draw now, a draw is really more likely."
Compared with Yan Feng's eagerness to win Atletico Madrid, many teammates who experienced that defeat did not have so much confidence.
The teammates seem to lack confidence, which makes Yan Feng somewhat disappointed.However, he still does not give up the idea of revenge at home, he can only continue to encourage his teammates. "It's because we lost last time that we want revenge. We can't let the fans down."
"We have several draws, but we are unbeaten in seven or eight games. This shows that we will at least not lose. We are at our home court and we must strive for success. You have to believe in yourself, we can win. Granada Team, must win!"
"Well. Yan is right. We can't give up our belief in winning. We have won Real Madrid, how can we not win Atletico Madrid?" Sandor agreed with Yan Feng.
"Yes. It's totally possible to win Atletico Madrid."
After Sandel came out to support Yan Feng's views, other teammates also raised their determination to win the opponent at home.
Yan Feng and his teammates finally reached a unity of thought.With the unanimous desire to win, Yan Feng believes that they can achieve the victory they want.
Compared with the players' desire to win, Alcaraz, as the head coach, seemed more defensive in the next pre-match arrangements and speeches.There is no strong desire to win like Yan Feng.In terms of tactical arrangements, it is still the defensive counterattack that Alcaraz is good at and likes.
"In my own home court, I have to defend and counterattack. Doesn't this show that I lack confidence? This, no matter how you look at it, lacks the courage of a strong man." This is Yan Feng's thoughts on Alcaraz's strategic arrangement.However, it is hard for him to say anything. What a player can do is to fully cooperate with the head coach and earnestly implement the will of the head coach to create possible victories.
After an entrance ceremony, the game finally started with the referee's whistle under the cheers of the home fans.
The Granada team is still the usual 5231 formation.Although the formation itself is an offensive and defensive formation, it has become a defensive formation under the influence of Alcaraz's task requirements and tactical style for the players.
No matter how many thoughts he has before the game, in the official game, Yan Feng will abandon any redundant thoughts and devote himself to the game.He needs two hundred percent investment today.Facing Griezmann, who is known as one of the most contenders for the future Golden Globe Award after Ronaldo and Messi.Yan Feng, who is eager to win, can't be careless.
I don't know whether it was Yan Feng's encouragement to his teammates before the game, or Alcaraz's tactical arrangement was more correct. Since the start of the game, Granada has not lost to Atletico Madrid on the scene.
The Granada team, which uses defensive counterattack tactics, naturally appears relatively calm, while the Atletico Madrid team playing away is not aggressive.Therefore, in the first 10 minutes of the game, both sides were testing, and the rhythm of offense and defense was maintained.
Because the Granada team is no longer a weak team in the eyes of other teams, but a strong team that can compete for the European League qualification.This is also when Atletico Madrid came up, they were not as aggressive as before.
After a trial, Atletico Madrid began to exert their strength.Atlético Madrid became more confident after understanding Granada's defensive attitude.The opponent's weak behavior has unknowingly boosted their momentum.
"The Granada team is nothing more than that. They are not as strong as expected. Although they are stronger than when they played against each other last season, they are not strong enough. They are not our opponents yet."
The change of mentality began to continuously enhance the aggressiveness of Atletico Madrid players.Once they let their feet go and kick with confidence, their offensive power becomes extremely threatening.
Atlético Madrid's attack stepped up, putting more and more pressure on Granada's defense.Fortunately, the Granada team is now a team full of tenacity, they can withstand great pressure.Even in the face of a strong attack like Real Madrid, they are not afraid at all.
Yan Feng is working hard, and all his teammates are also working hard, which allows them to withstand the increasingly strong attacks of Atletico Madrid time and time again.
Of course, the Granada team is not without power to fight back.Is it a defensive counterattack after all?If you can't even counterattack, it's not a defensive counterattack, but being pressed to the ground and rubbed.When the Granada team withstood the attack of Atletico Madrid, they would attack resolutely when they had the opportunity.This effectively kept Atletico Madrid's attack at bay, preventing them from attacking with impunity.
Another 10 minutes passed, Atletico Madrid failed to break Granada's goal, and Granada's counterattack also failed to score.However, in terms of the overall number of shots, Atletico Madrid still has the advantage.
Yan Feng is constantly working hard to defend Griezmann, and occasionally goes forward to participate in the offense during the period.However, due to concerns about Atletico Madrid's strong offensive ability, Yan Feng always wants to keep Griezmann behind.
I don't know if Griezmann is not in good shape today, or Yan Feng is stronger now.Yan Feng felt that when he was dealing with Griezmann, he was no longer struggling like last time.
"Is it true that the transfer rumors have affected his state?" Yan Feng thinks it is possible, but he is still worried that Griezmann will suddenly explode.If Griezmann came suddenly and scored a goal, Yan Feng would absolutely not accept it.
But until the end of the first half, Griezmann did not show an unmatched level.This made Yan Feng really confirm that today's opponent is a little out of shape.
Griezmann, the core player of Atletico Madrid, is out of form, which is definitely great news.This made Yan Feng more confident in winning Atletico Madrid today.
0:0, the two sides shook hands and made a draw in the first half.
In the first half, both sides performed well and could play their own characteristics.Although there were no goals, it did not bore the spectators either.Whether it is Atletico Madrid's smooth offense or Grenada's increasing familiarity with pass control, fans appreciate it.
The second half became more anticipated.
The Granada team, which did not lose much in the first half, gave the home fans hope of winning.
"Compared to the loss last season, we performed much better today. In the first half, we didn't concede a goal. In the second half, I began to expect our storm to crush them."
Looking forward to the second half, which seems to be the label of the Granada team now.Since the Granada team basically used defensive counterattacks, they seldom scored strongly in the first half.Often in the second half, after everyone's physical fitness declines, the Granada team will suddenly launch a strong attack, and it often works and can be successful.
Although in recent times, it has often been tied, but this will not affect the confidence of the fans in scoring.
Soon, the two sides returned to the field.The second half began immediately.
After coming out of the locker room, Granada didn't change much.From the perspective of Alcaraz in the first half, his strategy was correct.
"Everyone must be patient. After the opponent drops, it is when we really counterattack."
That's what Alcaraz emphasized at halftime.In this regard, the players also agree.Because they have Yan Feng who can't run to death in their formation, but there is none in the opponent's formation.When everyone's physical fitness declines, and there is a guy on his side who can dash like the wind, the opponent will often become difficult to parry.This is where Alcaraz's confidence in defensive counterattacks lies.
Before the opponent's physical energy is consumed, the opponent cannot be given a chance.This is Alcaraz's strategic thinking.
On this point, Yan Feng agrees.It's just that Yan Feng feels too imposing about defending first and then counterattacking.Looking around the world, which team aspiring to be a champion adopts this tactic?
In the second half, Yan Feng and his teammates worked hard to consume, yes, they used various methods to consume their opponents.Finally, after 70 minutes of the entire game, the players on both sides suffered from varying degrees of physical decline.
By this time, the Granada team really started to unleash.
From too much defense before, it has been transformed into an active counterattack.Yan Feng began to cross with Costa to participate in the attack.
Costa's slow advance combined with Yan Feng's sudden surge, these two styles are constantly exchanging, making Atletico Madrid, who have adapted to the previous defensive counterattack, somewhat uncomfortable.
In the 76th minute, after Granada defended against an attack from Atletico Madrid, Yan Feng didn't ask for the ball and rushed forward silently.Griezmann's relatively average performance today allowed Yan Feng to step forward with all his strength.
Yan Feng stepped forward quietly, and Costa moved back to get the ball in coordination.After Costa took the ball, he gave it to Aslan on the wing, and then he chose to lean in the middle to fill the gap after Yan Feng went up.
After Aslan took the ball, he quickly split up Samper, who was in charge of organizing in the middle.Samper turned around with the ball, faced the defense, made a cross, and then sent the ball to Sandel who was behind him.
Sandel leans back against the guard and moves forward to catch the ball.When he got to the football, Sandel didn't take the ball, but hit the football directly with a horizontal blow.Then, he turned sharply again and ran around the goal.He doesn't need to see if he's going to be disappointed with the pass.He believed that Yan Feng would appear in that place.
Yan Feng did not disappoint Sandel, he appeared in time on the way Sandel crossed the ball.Yan Feng got the ball, but he faced the defender immediately.It seemed that the other party did not relax their vigilance against him from the beginning to the end.
However, it doesn't matter, Yan Feng didn't want to face the goal as soon as he got the ball.He also did not choose Qiangtu, because he was not fighting alone.
After Yan Feng dribbled the ball close to the opponent for a certain distance, he passed the ball diagonally.There was Sandor, who turned and detoured.
Sandor successfully got Yan Feng's pass.Sandor slanted towards the penalty area with the ball, and the defense of the defender prevented him from being single-handedly.Sandor doesn't have the speed of Yan Feng, so he can't use his speed to escape.However, he has good ball handling ability and is not easy to lose the ball.When Sandel was brought close to the front of the penalty area, he suddenly knocked the ball back with his heel.
Don't look at people, pass the ball with your heel.This isn't the first time Sandor has done this in a game.Will he succeed this time?
The answer is of course.Yan Feng's tacit understanding with him, as well as countless drills, have long been familiar with these possible cooperations.Yan Feng appeared at Sandor's destination again.
This is also Yan Feng's follow-up, but there is not much room for him to hit the goal.However, it doesn't matter.Because Yan Feng's purpose is not to hit the door by himself.It was another teammate, Aslan.
Yan Feng didn't stop the ball, ran forward and pushed the ball directly to the left corner of the top line of the penalty area.
"Aslan!"
Aslan did not disappoint Yan Feng.He shakes off the defender and runs quickly to the rolling football.One-handed!
Aslan led the football into the penalty area. Facing the goalkeeper who wanted to attack but didn't dare, Aslan shot the ball into the right corner with a light rubbing shot.
"GOAL!!!!!! Aslan."
1:0, Granada took the lead.
The whole stadium boiled up.Everyone has been waiting for this moment for a long time.Now finally a goal has been scored and victory is within sight.
After an excited celebration, the game started again.
"Everyone, don't be careless. We must withstand their counterattack." After being happy, Alcaraz calmly asked his teammates to strengthen their defense.
After being scored, the Atletico Madrid team made personnel adjustments in the coach, and then woke up like a dream.Especially Griezmann, who had been performing mediocre before, became active under the scolding of their coach.
Atletico Madrid began to fight back absolutely, and their offensive reached the highest point of the game.This made Yan Feng and his teammates feel great pressure.
No matter how great the pressure is, in order to win, they still have to grit their teeth and support.They withstood tenaciously withstood the onslaught of Atletico Madrid.
The Granada team tenaciously withstood the onslaught for about 10 minutes.During the period, they were not powerless to fight back.It's just that at the request of Alcaraz, most of them chose to waste time instead of converting it into an effective offense.
Even so, the time soon came to more than 80 minutes, and Atletico Madrid still failed to score.It appears that the game will be over for Granada to win.
In order not to give his opponent any chance of a comeback, Yan Feng followed Griezmann tightly.
Yan Feng did not make a mistake, but his physical fitness may not be as good as his teammates.Ingarson was facing the old 'golden boy' Torres. Due to his physical decline, he missed a step and was shot by Torres.The ball went straight into the dead corner and went in.
World wave!
Atletico Madrid equalized.
1:1. The two sides have returned to the same starting line.
"SHIT, is it a draw again?" Seeing that the game time was coming to an end, the soldiers of the Granada team were speechless.
"Hey, that's it again. Is the nearest Granada cursed by God?"
It seems that there will be another draw.
However, this is just wishful thinking of the Granada team.They were hit by this conceded goal, their morale plummeted, and they had no confidence in winning.In stoppage time, when the draw had been accepted, Atletico Madrid's attack did not seem too threatening, and the desire to attack was not very strong. Carrasco unexpectedly scored with a long shot. .
"SHIT! SHIT!"
lost!Granada turned out to be reversed.
"Losing?" When Yan Feng heard the referee blowing the whistle for the end of the game, his eyes became confused and turned into anger.
"I am super! Why is this happening?"
