Chapter 785 The Last Chance(1/2)

Tired, so fucking tired!

This is the biggest feeling Ibrahimovic feel at this moment.

His physical energy has been almost exhausted. Although it is only seventy minutes now, it is really exhausted.

But he still kept walking back and forth on the court, sometimes even running.

It’s not because he is diligent, but because he is worried that as soon as he stops, he will never run again.

Those damn legs trembled as soon as they tried hard. He really doubted how long he could last.

This is the first time he has played in the Champions League final in his life, and it is also the best Champions League season he has played in his career.

Juventus, who debuted in Malmö, Sweden, became famous in Ajax, the Netherlands, and rose to Italy, established his position as the world's number one center in Inter Milan. Later, he switched to Barcelona at an astonishing price, but was expelled from the Camp Nou after a season.

Ibrahimovic has won countless honors in his life, including league championships and cup championships, and he has almost won the money.

But the only thing is the Champions League, he passed by again and again.

As a Swedish international player, due to the national team, he was destined to miss the international competition in his life.

The World Cup, the European Cup, and the Federation Cup have nothing to do with him.

Therefore, he attaches great importance to the Champions League.

But ironically, everyone has always said that he is the soft-footed shrimp of the Champions League!

When I transferred from Ajax to Juventus, it was the last glorious period of the Serie A. The old woman was one of the strongest teams in Europe at that time. Ibrahimovic was eager to reach the top of Europe in Turin.

Who would have thought that two years later, the phone door broke out and Juventus was punished and demoted.

Ibrahimovic was unwilling to follow Juventus to sink into the Serie B, so he switched to Inter Milan.

The Nerazzurri was the team that Italy had the most hope to do a big game in the European arena at that time, and Morati also personally promised that Inter Milan would go for the European championship.

In fact, in those years, Inter Milan invested a lot and its overall strength was also very strong.

But it's still a little worse than the Champions League.

In the first year of Mourinho's arrival, the team continued to be invincible in the Serie A, but in the Champions League, he still failed to make any breakthroughs, stopped at the top 16, and lost to Manchester United.

This disappointed Ibrahimovic!

Because as he grows older and he is getting further and further away from his goal in the Champions League, he feels scared!

He has always been arrogant and confident, and is afraid that he will end his career with lifelong regret!

Just at this time, Barcelona, ​​who had just swept across Europe with an unprecedented huge advantage and won the triple crown, extended an olive branch to him, hoping to bring him to Camp Nou at an amazing sky-high price.

Guardiola promises that Ibrahimovic will succeed at the Camp Nou!

It should be much easier to win the Champions League in Barcelona than to Inter Milan?

Therefore, Ibrahimovic resolutely chose Spain!

But ironically, in his first season after leaving Inter Milan, Mourinho's team won the triple-champ, including Ibrahimovic's coveted European championship!

In contrast, Ibrahimovic encountered an unprecedented career crisis in Barcelona.

That was the lowest point in his career!

He really regretted that his intestines were blushed. He even wanted to slap himself a few times.

But in the world, where do you take regret medicine?

If you just regret it, that's fine, but more importantly, doubt.

As soon as Ibrahimovic left Inter Milan, Inter Milan won the Champions League title. As soon as he joined Barcelona, ​​Barcelona immediately experienced a tactical crisis. What does this mean?

It couldn't be simpler!

This Swedish center is a tactical cancer!

This statement has appeared in newspapers more than once, in the mouths of fans, and next to Ibrahimovic's ears.

He needs help, but at this time, Barcelona hopes that he will transfer, but Guardiola tells him, how can we continue?

I'll go on your mother's continued!

I won't play anymore!

AC Milan's Galliani wants to get Ibrahimovic, but his condition is to reduce transfer fees and reduce salary by a significant reduction!

But this obviously hurts Ibrahimovic's self-esteem!

At this moment, Southampton, which had just been acquired, came to the door with a close call. Master Huan went to Barcelona to discuss and was humiliated by Barcelona's management.

This made Ibrahimovic feel a strong sincerity!

More importantly, Young Master Huan promised to build a competitive team around Ibrahimovic and rise strongly in the next few years!

Ibrahimovic made a crazy decision and chose Southampton!

To everyone's eyes at that time, this was simply crazy!

The world's top three superstars, the number one center, actually joined a team in the third-level England league?

Isn't this crazy, what's it?

But four years have passed, and now, who else will question Ibrahimovic's decision that year?

As the team's number one star, he led Southampton from the League One, upgrading from the League One year to the Premier League. In his first season, he won the Premier League championship as a newly promoted team and successfully defended the league championship again in the second season.

With this report card, who dares to say that it is wrong for Ibrahimovic to join the Saints?

More importantly, when Southampton first participated in the Champions League, he miraculously reached the final of the Champions League!

This surprised Ibrahimovic like never before!

He is eager for a Champions League title, and he is almost going crazy!

So, in this game, he tried his best, and he ran without hesitation, and even let him retire on the spot after the game, and he didn't care.

Because he knew that this was his last chance!

He was so tired that he seemed to fall down anytime and anywhere, but whenever he turned his head and looked at the San Bolade Cup placed on the sidelines and at the exit of the player's passage, a force surged in his heart again.

Only this last regret remains in his career, and he longs to make up for it with his own hands!

But Atletico Madrid, a team that can reach the Champions League final, isn’t it a good idea to save money?

With Swedish center playing for so many years, Atletico Madrid's defensive tactics in this game are perfect.

Although there are few counterattack opportunities and few threatening attacks, they are indeed quite unique in defending Southampton's offense, and they have almost never given the Saints too many opportunities.

Even though the two sides changed their playing styles to a certain extent after changing two players, they still failed to break the deadlock.

After all, this is the Champions League final!

Ibrahimovic felt that he was about to lose his life!

But that Argentine dwarf, oh, by the way, the guy named Otamendi is still full of fighting spirit.

That guy is really a fighter, his fighting ability is amazing!

Even as an opponent, even if he is more than ten centimeters taller than him, Ibrahimovic still has no way to prevent him.

What's more, there is an experienced Godin behind him.

The two of them must have focused on studying Ibrahimovic, so the defense is very targeted.

This made the Swedish center admire and annoyed.

It’s my mother, I finally waited for a Champions League final, how could it be destroyed by them?

If you want to find a way, you must find a way to crack their defense!

How to break it?

After adjusting the team's tactics, Atletico Madrid's tactics look more like 4141.

The defense line still has not changed much. The midfielder is behind Crichoviak, and Isco and Cork are in front of him.

The two players are still there, which proves that Atletico Madrid's determination to counterattack and attack is still there!

The two sides are Griezmann and Tevez, who are more in front and more on the right, while Tevez is more inward between Southampton midfield and the back line.

Diego Costa plays as a single forward, but the position is also a bit on the right.

This probably has something to do with Atletico Madrid's counterattack often launching long diagonal passes to find the right.

David Alaba's side is under great defensive pressure and it is impossible to provide offensive support to Hazard ahead.

In contrast, Southampton is more like the 442 tactic.

The defense line remains unchanged, with two midfielders, Tony Kroos slightly behind, James Rodriguez is relatively ahead and the position is relatively free.

Hazard on the left, Sanchez on the right, Ibrahimovic as center, and Suarez cruised around him.

Although Southampton's midfielder was much thinner, the ball was still under Southampton's feet.

Therefore, the key question now is not how to grab the ball, but how to break the opponent's defense!

With Atletico Madrid's tactics, nine players often have defensive formations in the backcourt, leaving Diego Costa in front. Such defense is very layered and impeccable.
