In Carrington and Ferguson's office, Manchester United's coaching staff were worried about the video of Cao's game. Mike Philan, who had just returned from Madrid, was explaining their discoveries during the game. "/"/

Real Madrid, a top powerhouse that has become the public enemy of the world's teams!

Ferguson's evaluation of Yang Cheng's team is that this team plays football on Mars, and all other teams are still on Earth, which shows how much he values ​​this team.

"With Real Madrid, they must not be able to control the game!" Mike Philanan analyzed very seriously, "This is the most control-oriented team I have ever seen. Not only in terms of ball control and rhythm, their control and occupation of space are also at the pinnacle. The players' awareness of playing football is very advanced!"

There are many teams that control the ball, such as Barcelona and Arsenal, and there are also many teams that control the rhythm. For example, Liverpool and there are also many teams that control space, such as Manchester United and Chelsea, but there are not many teams that can control two elements of the game at the same time.

Barcelona controls the rhythm by controlling the ball, so they can slow down for dozens of minutes and suddenly make a fast-paced attack to complete the rhythm change; Manchester United and Chelsea control the space through running, and then speed up during counterattacks to complete the rhythm change.

But Barcelona finds it difficult to control the space. The reason is very simple. If they want to ensure the ball, they need players to run around the ball, rather than occupying the space. Although 433 expands the space, it is difficult to achieve a balance between controlling the ball and controlling the space, because a player's control area is limited, and the wider the space, the weaker the control power.

Manchester United and Chelsea control the rhythm by controlling the space, but they have to run without any effort. In this case, it is difficult for players to control the ball, and the players of Premier League teams are still very different from La Liga in terms of technical details, so Manchester United and Chelsea are relatively weak in controlling the ball.

Many people wonder why Real Madrid's ball possession rate has increased over the years?

All professionals recognize this as a reflection of Real Madrid's huge progress!

If Real Madrid used to ensure a balance between ball control and space control, causing them to run too much and make too many mistakes, resulting in too little ball control time, then now they can improve the running quality, thereby reducing pass mistakes, and thus improving the team's ball control time, but relatively speaking, their effective ball control quality has not changed!

This means that Real Madrid's threat is constantly increasing!

For example, Real Madrid used to have a 40% possession rate, and they were able to score 20 shots, but now with a possession rate, they can ensure that the team has 25-30 shots, or even more, because this is a snowball superposition rather than a simple arithmetic problem.

Maybe some people will say, like Real Madrid, can runners bear it?

Real Madrid played 4231, and its control over the game area was relatively balanced. Moreover, Yang Cheng pressed the defense line very high, which indirectly shortened the control area of ​​Real Madrid players and reduced running. It is also important to know that the higher the control over the ball, space, and rhythm, the reward is that the less physical energy the players consume to complete all this.

Sakki even proposed that the physical energy consumption of Real Madrid players is actually not as large as the outside world seems to be, because they control everything in their hands and can attack, defend, or even be lazy on the court to support the battle.

For example, when Marcelo on the left runs forward, when Macon on the right wants to stay in the backcourt, he can rest. The same is true for players in other positions, but the opponent is afraid of Real Madrid's offensive power and must be exhausted from running defense, which leads to excessive physical energy consumption.

If this series of advantages is combined, it is why Real Madrid's offensive ability is so amazing this season!

Look at the players Mourinho introduced this season, Mota, Diego Milito, and Sneijder, are all practical players with the mainland style and technical skills. This means that although Mourinho is stubborn, he is actually following Yang Cheng's route and is still unswervingly!

Let’s look at Ferguson’s signings, Nani, Valencia, Benzema, and Berbatov, who are all technical. They all have a common goal, which is to further control the ball when they have already controlled the space, and then be able to play football similar to Real Madrid.

As for Barcelona, ​​in fact, the players introduced by Barcelona have one goal, that is, the occupation of space. From Yaya = Toure, Keita to Ibrahimovic, they all take the control of space route, because he also hopes to increase the occupation of space after controlling the ball, and then play football like Real Madrid.

No one knows how long this road will take, but everyone knows that this road is correct because Real Madrid has reached it!

But Real Madrid is really perfect?

Ferguson feels that there is no absolute perfection in this world, and so is Real Madrid. For example, they lack control over height, which is a big problem for Real Madrid, and it always exists. The second is that after advocating the offense, the risk of full-back being hit and counterattacked is very high, which is inevitable.

Opportunities and risks are like two sides of a coin, inseparable and unresolvable. There are risks when there are opportunities. That kind of opportunity without risks is impossible. However, now Yang Cheng has completed the pursuit of maximum opportunities in overall tactics, but has minimized the risks.

Ferguson has known Yang Cheng for so many years. It can be said that he has watched Yang Cheng transform from a young boy to a world-class coach today. This has brought pressure to him and brought him immeasurable progress and movement.

When the realm reaches their level, it is actually no longer important to win or lose. What is important is to achieve your pursuit and goals.

This is why Ferguson did not object after the Glazer family took over Manchester United, because the Glazer family could give him such an opportunity to fulfill his pursuit of football and achieve his goals.

Losing a game or losing a season is irrelevant for Ferguson and Mourinho now, because they are both people who have pursuits. They all know that losing can reveal more problems, but winning can easily make the team lose their feet, so they are not afraid of losing now.

But there is a little difference. Ferguson is not as brave as Mourinho. The Portuguese are crazy, but very courageous. After all, Ferguson is old and easily scrutinized when he arrives at the competition, without the enthusiasm of young people.

Of course, there is no difference between good and bad. It’s just that everyone will do this when they reach a certain age.

Unlike Yang Cheng who has a huge professional coaching team, although Ferguson's coaching team is also large and there are also technical analysis teams, there are actually not many people who can share his worries. After Queros left, he almost disappeared. Mike = Feilan is half. This caused everyone to look at Ferguson habitually and listen to his arrangements during the meeting.

Sometimes when I think about it, Ferguson really feels uncomfortable!

"In the next two days, we will pay attention to the tactical exercises of attack after the game in training!" Ferguson ordered.

As soon as he spoke, all the Manchester United coaching staff immediately noticed and wrote down on their notebooks.

"The main team, goalkeeper Van der Sar, Evra on the defense, Vis = Brown, Ferdinand and Gary = Neville, the midfielder is Giggs, Scholes and Fletcher, and Rooney, Berbatov and Benzema with Trident!

This season, Ferguson has used Giggs and Scholes, two veterans. Berbatov has certain control advantages, and his ability to retreat and take the ball and turn around is very threatening. Benzema has been in excellent form recently.

"The midfielder focuses on practicing fast defensive counterattacks. Giggs needs to increase the threat to Rooney on the left and serve as a booster. The frontcourt focuses on practicing the connection between Rooney and Berbatov, as well as Benzema's support after cutting into the penalty area."

Rooney is a superstar who is absolutely underestimated. He can play in the middle but can also play in the wing. Ferguson's use of Rooney this season is mostly on the wing. His ability to spike and break through the wing is very solid, and then pass the ball into the penalty area with a long diagonal pass is also a powerful weapon for Manchester United's attack.

Berbatov's role is to retreat, pull out the defensive players, and pass an effective strategic depth when holding the ball behind his back.

Let me put it this way, in the entire offensive promotion route, Ferguson practiced a second pass mainly relies on three people, Rooney, Berbatov and Scholes. These three people on the court at the same time, which can make Manchester United's offense very three-dimensional. Benzema's stopping and calm shooting ability, as well as his excellent explosive power, ensured the final score.

Don’t think that Ferguson is a fool. He let go of Tevez and introduced Benzema with a lot of money. In fact, what he values ​​is Benzema’s scoring ability, which Tevez does not have. The Argentine is too stubborn.

"The focus of the drill is to attack after the opening!" Ferguson's strategy and tactics are still very clear.

When playing against Real Madrid, it is to weaken Real Madrid's control. The more Real Madrid wants to control, the more Manchester United has to break free. If they break free, there will be a chance. Being controlled is equivalent to fish on the chopping board, and let Real Madrid's butcher knife slaughter!

When all the coaching staff members looked at Ferguson, they were a little awe, but they couldn't hide their surprise. This was indeed too risky!

It must be admitted that after Ferguson introduced Benzema, he made earth-shaking changes to Manchester United's entire offensive routine and was very successful. The trident composed of Rooney, Berbatov and Benzema has its attack power second only to Real Madrid and Barcelona in Europe, which is enough to prove Manchester United's strength.

But the problem is that now we are facing Real Madrid, the team with the strongest offense and strongest defense in Europe. Manchester United has suffered a loss once before, but this time it will come?

But no one dared to resist Ferguson's arrangement because they were all used to obeying!

Ferguson also has his own ideas. Yang Cheng, Wenger and Mourinho and other old bastards always say that he is conservative, and always say that he doesn't dare to fight when he reaches the competition. He looks down on others too fuckingly!

"I will fight you this time and catch you off guard!" Ferguson felt a little proud in his heart.

There is no unbreakable defense line in this world, and the attack takes the initiative. Ferguson believes that as long as the attack starts, it can effectively break through Real Madrid's defense line and curb Real Madrid's control, then Manchester United will have a chance in the game at the Bernabeu!

As for opportunities, they are not given by their opponents’ charity and mercy, but by themselves, they have to strive for it and take risks to get it!

Want to get something for nothing and want to get the pie that falls from the sky with steadily, be careful not to be smashed to death!

Yang Cheng really didn't know what Ferguson was thinking. He didn't notice that Mike = Philanthrone appeared in the stands of the Madrid Derby. The 80,000 fans of the Bernabeu were crowded with people in the stands. It was strange that he could recognize it.

He still said the same thing about playing Manchester United, with me as the main one, but he also expected that Ferguson would find a way to restrain Real Madrid. This is the game, restraint and anti-restraint. But he didn't know what specific cards Ferguson would play, so he couldn't say it, and could only predict and practice some targeted things.

The specific situation will not be known until the game is in progress.

Because there were two days off for the match against Manchester United and Atletico Madrid, Yang Cheng was a substitute in the Madrid derby and also conducted drills, but he tried his best to play against Manchester United.

The goalkeepers are Casillas and the defense are Marcelo, Thiago = Silva, Ramos and Macon, the double midfielder is Xavi = Alonso and Delarede, the attacking forward is Ronaldo, and Kaka and David = Silva single forward is Villa.

There are no injuries, this lineup is Real Madrid's strongest attacking lineup. However, in the forward position this season, the competition between Aguero and Villa is very fierce, and whoever is in good shape will be the best.

In fact, Yang Cheng also reminded the players to be careful of Manchester United's attack at the beginning of the game, because Ferguson used this move. Yang Cheng knew very well that he must be careful to avoid some unnecessary mistakes.

However, during the game, the development of the situation still exceeded Yang Cheng's expectations.

After the opening, Manchester United passed the ball back and forth, and after two kicks, Scholes passed the ball over the top and accurately found Bulgaria's Xiaosha Ge leaned against Thiago Silva with his body, preventing the Brazilian central defender from defending the forward and stopping the ball with his chest.

With a strong player, Berbatov suppressed Thiago Silva. His excellent skills allowed the ball to stop steadily at his feet. After stopping the ball, he turned around and passed the ball to Thiago Silva's side.

Benzema interspersed from the side, stopped the ball and entered the penalty area. Ramos hurriedly stepped forward to make up for the leak, but Benzema passed the ball horizontally to the left side of the penalty area. Rooney inserted it and shot it hard.

This shot was very powerful and very fast. Casillas couldn't save it at all and could only lift the ball out of the crossbar.

The 80,000 Real Madrid fans at the Bernabeu Stadium were scared and sweated. They only started 36 seconds. If Manchester United scored a goal, Real Madrid would undoubtedly have a very bad start.

Manchester United took a corner kick, and Ferdinand and other players rushed into the penalty area, especially Ferdinand. He grabbed a point in front of the goal and hit the ball slightly higher. However, he responded to the referee, thinking that Ramos was pulling his jersey, but the referee did not give a penalty. It was shown from slow motion that Ramos did pull.

But Manchester United did not retreat too far, but gathered heavy troops in the midfield and waited for Casillas to kick off.

Soon, the ball was re-controlled by Manchester United and launched another round of attack. This time, Benzema cut in and crossed the ball on the right, and Scholes inserted a long shot, slightly higher.

But in the 6th minute, Manchester United made a comeback again. After Giggs got the ball, Evra who was inserted into the back formed a cooperation. Rooney got the ball from the left at the front of the penalty area and passed the ball into the penalty area. Berbatov got the ball in the penalty area, but after his body was held back by Thiago Silva, the Brazilian central defender calmly tackled the ball and destroyed it to Casillas.

Although Berbatov fell to the ground, the referee was very careful and ignored the Bulgarian's move to ask for a penalty kick, but instead signaled the game to continue. But everyone could see that Manchester United's attack after the start of the game was very strong and very determined, which brought many threats to Real Madrid.

"It seems that this old guy is really willing to give up this time!" Yang Cheng stood on the sidelines, turned his head to look at Ferguson, and smiled slightly. The latter was sitting in the visiting team coach's seat chewing gum, watching the game leisurely, obviously very satisfied with the situation.

"It was indeed caught off guard!" Benitesto took the glasses on the bridge of the nose.

Before, Yang Cheng made a judgment with them, and they all felt that Ferguson challenged Real Madrid away. First, the strength was at a disadvantage, and second, Manchester United did not have enough control. This kind of life-threatening start was too risky, and Ferguson should not know how to use it. But unexpectedly, this old guy came up directly and was a hand-to-hand battle with bayonets.

That's right, the head coach is responsible for targeted tactics, but this does not mean that the head coach has the ability to predict the future. No one can clearly foresee every opponent's battle strategy. Moreover, Ferguson's abnormal pressure and fighting is still so resolute, which is indeed a bit surprising.

"Our defense line is dangerous!" Paul Baier reminded.

Manchester United's offensive impact is very strong. Rooney and Benzema are both scorers who are bright with a little sunshine. Real Madrid's defense line is greatly impacted by them.

"We can't shrink now!" Yang Cheng said, "Let Drared and Harvey Alonso come back a little, stand in place, straighten your waist, David Silva and Kaka come back a little, strangle Scholes, Giggs and the players in front!"

Yang Cheng's idea is to cut off the connection between Manchester United's midfield and frontcourt, causing them to be disconnected.

But man's calculations are not as good as God's calculations. Just after Yang Cheng's order, Manchester United got an offensive opportunity in the scene.

Fletcher returned to the front of his defense line, and used his body to squeeze Ronaldo. He cooperated with Gary Neville, and at the same time cut off the Portuguese's ball and passed it to Scholes. The latter kept passing the ball with one shot and gave it to Rooney.

After getting the ball, Rooney quickly advanced forward, while Berbatov and Benzema launched support from the middle and right, and soon advanced to the front of Real Madrid's penalty area.

Just when he saw Berbatov suddenly slow down and raise his hand to demand, Ramos had to follow him to defend himself, creating a gap in the penalty area, while Benzema threw away Thiago Silva and cut into the penalty area from the right.

Rooney made a pass from behind the penalty area, and the ball passed from behind Ramos to the penalty area, passing toward the right post, while Benzema was inserting at high speed, and Thiago Silva was chasing back.

Although Casillas moved to the right as soon as possible, it seemed that it was impossible to stop Benzema from scoring a goal close at hand!
Chapter completed!
