Chapter 415 The Battle Begins
Amidst all kinds of talk and topic hype, the match between Granada and Real Madrid has arrived.
Thanks to these topics before the game, this game has received great attention from the entire football world.The level of attention in this game is not even lost to the Spanish national derby between Real Madrid and Barcelona.
On match day, Granada fans packed the entire Granada Stadium.This is a rare hot ball market for the Granada team.However, these tens of thousands of people are like a drop in the ocean compared with another data.
According to post-match statistics, this game has been watched by more than 1 million fans around the world.Of course, more than half of the late-night fans came from China.
A team with two Chinese players is going to challenge Real Madrid. For Chinese fans, its importance is no less than that of the Chinese team in the World Cup.Seeing one's own players play against the world's top stars in the world's top leagues is something no true Chinese fan would want to miss.
Before the game officially started, all football-themed bars in the country were packed with fans wearing Granada jerseys.A large number of private rooms in various hotels have also been booked out.As for the fans sitting in front of the TV and computer, there are countless more.
Although this is just a game from La Liga.But for Chinese fans, it is no less than a festival.
Regarding the level of attention this game has received, the happiest person is Jiang Lizhang, the owner of the Granada team.Just for this game alone, the advertising effect he got made him want to laugh.
Others who are very happy about this situation are the marketing department of La Liga.Because this situation is exactly what they want, and these topics that will appear before this game are also fueled by them.To be able to stir up another topic comparable to the National Derby means a small amount of money in vain.You know, the whole world wants to make money now, isn't it China?
For this game, La Liga has made a lot of preparations before the game.The major media also invested a lot of manpower and material resources to pay attention to this game.It is said that the major media in Europe sent their best teams to broadcast the game.Many media have chosen the protagonist of the live broadcast as this game.
The Barcelona team, another protagonist of La Liga, because their opponent in this round is the Eibar team.That game received many times less attention.For the first time in Barcelona's history, people are not paying attention.For the first time, they experienced what it means to be ignored by the media.
Back at the Granada Stadium, in the media area, journalist teams from major media aimed all kinds of guns and short cannons at the stadium.The most powerful host and commentary team in every media are desperately explaining to the camera.
"Welcome to XXX, I'm XXX, behind me is the Granada Stadium. The match between Granada and Real Madrid is about to start here, now..."
Under the cameras of the media, players from Granada and Real Madrid walked into the stadium one after another and started warming up before the game.
Although the two teams had a fierce verbal battle before the game, some acquaintances would still have a chat and say hello on the field.
First of all, it is also the most concerned person on both sides. The head coaches of both sides walked to the middle of the court for the first time and greeted and hugged and shook hands in a cordial and friendly manner.
"meet again."
"Yeah. This is the first time we've played since we were players."
"It's also the first time we've faced each other as coaches. I'm glad we're rivals again."
"Me too."
Pirlo and Zidane both smiled and shook hands and looked at each other.If someone observes carefully, it seems that they can see something called sympathy in the eyes of the two.
"The first confrontation between the two midfield masters in their coaching careers will be a scene worth remembering in history." The scene of Pirlo and Zidane shaking hands in suits was faithfully recorded by the camera.And was so emotionally said by many hosts and commentators.
In addition to the scene where the young head coaches of the two sides meet, there is also a meeting between the core of the two sides that has attracted much attention.
Yan Feng and Ronaldo also had a friendly greeting near the midfield.Although Yan Feng and Ronaldo have no friendship, the two have played against each other several times.Yan Feng once left a very deep impression on Ronaldo, and only he, the captain of the Granada team, is qualified to be valued by Ronaldo.
"Ronaldo." "Yan."
"We meet again."
"Welcome to Granada."
Yan Feng smiled and shook hands with Ronaldo who was also smiling.It is amazing that Yan Feng at this moment was not affected by the verbal battle between the two teams before the game.He greeted Ronaldo with calm and respect.
The same is true for Ronaldo on the opposite side. Ronaldo's face also does not see the smell of gunpowder that the outside world thinks, it is more respect for the opponent.
"Last time, you stole the fruits of victory from us. This time, I'm here to take it back." Ronaldo said confidently.
"Who is eligible to enjoy the fruits of victory, you have to play on the field to know. Are you ready? Come on, let's see who of us is capable of enjoying the victory." Yan Feng also returned a confident smile.
"Okay. However, I believe that the victory must be ours." Ronaldo raised his head and said a little domineeringly.
"We will win!" Yan Feng looked at Ronaldo with unabated momentum.
The two looked at each other for a while, both of them smiled and turned to leave.
Next, Yan Feng shook hands with Bell and talked.
"I'm in the best condition today, are you ready? Yan." Bell is equally confident.
"My condition is also very good. Maybe we can have a [-]-meter trapeze competition today." Yan Feng said with a smile.
"The [-]-meter flying race? Haha, I am looking forward to it. I really want to know who was the fastest person on the field before us."
"Me too."
After talking with Bell for a while, Yan Feng walked back to his teammates.As for the other people in the Real Madrid team, to be honest, Yan Fengfeng didn't have any contacts. Cristiano Ronaldo and Bell can also be regarded as opponents who have directly competed, and it is normal to have a verbal confrontation before the game.Next, both sides devoted themselves to the warm-up.
Players on both sides of the court are working hard to warm up.Sufficient warm-up before the game is also part of the game and a prerequisite for giving full play to your full strength.
The players are warming up, and the host commentators of various media are also busy.However, when introducing the players and characteristics of both sides, it is still the preparation of the two teams.They also made another prediction for this game.
"The starting rosters of both sides have been released. It can be seen from the rosters that this time both sides are all the main players."
"Real Madrid has sent the strongest lineup, and it seems that it is bound to win. From the perspective of the strength of the formations of both sides, Real Madrid will have a higher chance of winning. The 433 formation is the formation that they can best play offensive firepower. Can Granada hold up?"
"Formation 4231, unexpectedly, the Granada team chose this relatively balanced formation, instead of adopting a defensive formation of 541 as expected before the game. Formation 4231, the Granada team is too confident in itself, Are they convinced that they can withstand Real Madrid's offense? Will Pirlo be too high on his team?"
From the starting lists reported by the two sides before the game, the media can easily understand the plans of both sides.Many of the host commentators were surprised.In the eyes of the outside world, Pirlo's best strategy for this game should be to line up the iron barrel.
Use a solid defense to consume Real Madrid first, and then go looking for a chance to win.This is the most common method used by the Granada team in the past when facing strong opponents, and it is still the best.
"Granada wanting to go head-to-head with Real Madrid? It's not a wise thing to do."
The media expressed their predictions for the game when the players returned to the locker room after warming up.
"For the tactical arrangement of this game, we have been preparing for this period of time. I don't need to say more now. What I want to say now is, believe in yourself. We have to believe in ourselves. We can beat them, just Just like we defeated them last time." In the locker room, Pirlo did not explain any tactics, but carried out a pre-match mobilization again.
"To defeat them, the Granada team will win!" Yan Feng raised his fist and shouted at the right time.
"Beat them, Granada will win!"
"We must win!..." Others also shouted.The excitement on his face also rose.
At the same time, in the visiting dressing room, Real Madrid's players, led by Zidane, chanted similar chants. "Real Madrid must win!..."
After a while, players from both sides left the locker room full of desire for victory.When they came to the player tunnel and lined up, the two sides who were not far away looked at each other enthusiastically, with provocative eyes and expressions on their faces.
In the eye-to-eye battle, players from both sides slowly walked out of the player tunnel and onto the field.
"Granada must win! Come on! Granada team!~~~" The sound of cheering sounded like a tsunami but uniform.
The shouts of tens of thousands made the hearts of Yan Feng and other Granada players flutter, a kind of excitement was beating, and there was power in it.Here, they are not eleven people fighting, but tens of thousands of people face the enemy together.
This is the advantage brought by home games.Be it psychologically or emotionally.
The players of Real Madrid did not seem to be affected by this away atmosphere much.In other words, as a team that attracts the attention of the whole world, which away game does not face such a situation?They have long been used to it.The only difference from the home court is that they lack the support of tens of thousands of people.
The two teams that performed the entrance ceremony seemed to be full of confidence.The Granada team is confident of winning at home and in the previous match.And Real Madrid has the self-confidence of a super giant team.
Seeing his opponents calm and confident under the cheers of tens of thousands of people, to be honest, Yan Feng was quite envious. "This is the confidence of a strong team, and this is the goal we are working hard for. I believe that we will do the same in the future!"
After the entrance ceremony is held and the side and the ball are selected by tossing a coin, the players of both sides return to their respective half-court positions.
With a whistle in his mouth, the referee on duty looked down at the watch on his wrist.After a while, the whistle sounded a "beep".
The game has officially begun.A big war broke out.
It really exploded, and the game exploded after the referee blew his whistle.
In this game, Yan Feng, as the representative, chose to choose the side and gave the ball to Real Madrid.It is the most beneficial to give full play to the advantages on the sidelines.
Real Madrid, who got the right to serve, launched an onslaught immediately after the kick-off.Today Zidane sent Ronaldo, Benzema and Bell on the striker trident.
This trio is the strongest combination on Real Madrid's front line.This is a striker combination that combines technology, strength and speed.Once this combination is in good shape, it will be the nightmare of any opponent's central defender.
Facing this combination, even the Granada team with a very strong defense must deal with it with all their strength.
Although the Granada team has a 4231 formation, in fact, their defensive force input is well adjusted.In order to deal with Real Madrid's offensive combination, Granada directly invested in 4 defenders plus [-] midfielders.
That's right, even Lin Fan, who is a midfielder, had to put himself into defense.If it was Samper in the past, because his physical fitness and speed were not so good, doing so would affect the counterattack later.But Lin Fan, who had better physical fitness, did not have this problem.This is why Pirlo dared to line up 4231 formations in this game.
Real Madrid's Trident immediately turned around and ran forward at the kick-off, while Modric, who was holding the ball behind, made a precise long pass and quickly found Ronaldo who had just landed.
After Ronaldo got the ball, he quickly faced Bezo's defense. Ronaldo wanted to attack Bezo's defense zone, but Yan Feng's timely assistance in the defense made him dispel this idea.
Ronaldo chose to pass back to Kroos behind, and Kroos passed it to Modric.After Modric dribbled a few steps, he transferred to Bale.
Bell took the ball and soon encountered the defense of McTuckee and Costa.Bell didn't do it alone, but kicked his foot and kicked Benzema at the front of the middle.
Benzema ran to catch up, but didn't get the ball. He knocked it and turned around to rush forward.
"Benzema responds to the knockback, and Casemiro just goes in behind, an exquisite cooperation. The opportunity has come..." Benzema's pass was quickly explained by the hosts of the game praise.
Real Madrid's series of passing transfers looks like a lot, but in fact they are passed very quickly, and the time spent is very little.Benzema's kick was really good, and it happened to be given to Casemiro who came in behind.
After Casemiro catches the ball, he will have many choices.You can hit the goal directly, you can split the ball, or you can directly pass it to Benzema who is turning around and charging forward.
This is indeed an opportunity for Real Madrid.If it was the previous Granada team, even when Sandor was still there, this would be a crisis for the Granada team.
However, this time, Lin Fan quickly rushed to Casemiro's side and interfered with him before he had time to choose a proper way to deal with it.
Lin Fan's timely defense against Casemiro made the latter miss the first chance to hit the goal with a long shot or pick a pass to the front.However, Casemiro still relied on Zifeng's strong physical ability to protect the football, and then insisted on hitting the goal with Lin Fan's entanglement.
Due to Lin Fan's interference, Casemiro failed to achieve results, but missed the goal slightly.
This was Real Madrid's first goal of the game.Although there was no goal, it didn't even hit the goal frame.But this 20-second offense just announced their strength in this game.
The computer hasn't been repaired yet, and it's already ten o'clock in the evening after finishing coding on the company's computer.I can finally go home from get off work.Thank you for your support!
