    As the superstars of the "Galactic Battleships" who have created a new dynasty in the past three years, it is not that they have never encountered teams with tight defenses, but those teams are generally just ordinary mid-to-lower players.  It's just a team. With their ability, even if they face the opponent's iron barrel formation, there is nothing they can do. With their technology and offensive ability, although it is a little troublesome, it is not that difficult to score a few goals.  It's a matter of fact, and it's hard for those wealthy clubs similar to Real Madrid to be shameless enough to defend with such a compact iron barrel formation, but today

    The opponents they face are also national players from various countries. For example, Lucio is Ronaldo's teammate in the Brazilian national team, Makelele is also a teammate of Zidane in the French national team, and the others are basically stars who are about to reach superstar level.  Even if there is a gap in strength between them, the gap is extremely small. And now, these stars who are not inferior to them in terms of worth and strength are entangled with them with this kind of iron barrel formation that completely ignores their status.  !

    What¡¯s even more terrible is that this is Newcastle¡¯s home stadium, St James¡¯ Park!  Even if the Newcastle players make a bigger move, the referee will not be too demanding. This is the home field advantage!

    Under such tenacious defense, it is increasingly difficult for Real Madrid's superstars to attack. Yes, they are superstars and have better abilities than ordinary professional players, but they are still human beings and are not gods of football.  , nor is it the protagonist in -< Piaotian Literature registered members recommend this work > - who can defeat a team of monsters by himself, you know.  In modern football, the gap between individual players is no longer as big as it was in the 1950s and 1960s. Even the best superstars need space to display their abilities.

    Short pass penetration?  Sorry, that requires space, a cross after a breakthrough from the wing?  That's not bad, but Real Madrid not only doesn't have a center forward who is good at heading the ball.  Not even on the bench, Morientes has been sent to Monaco.  Draw back to induce the opponent's defense to move forward?  They have done it, but Newcastle has put on a rogue attitude of "a manly man, if you can't say it, don't say it", long shot?  This is a good idea. No matter what Newcastle does, it is impossible for the Real Madrid players to have no time to even take long-range shots. But even the best long-range player in the world cannot score every long-range shot, let alone  Every foot.  A player who can score a world-beating shot from any long-range shot can be regarded as the best long-range shot player in the world!

    Space, space, Real Madrid needs space, but Newcastle did not give them any space. They had very little time on the ball and were passively beaten most of the time, but they compressed the space in their half to the extreme.  On the contrary, in Real Madrid's half, there is a large area of ??space for Newcastle's frontcourt players to gallop.

    In the 17th minute, Newcastle organized another fast break after stealing the ball. This time Real Madrid's defense was timely. Beckham blocked Nie Fei's breakthrough in the midfield, and then Real Madrid's players quickly returned to defense.  A heavy defensive formation was set up in front of the goal.

    Seeing that Real Madrid¡¯s players had returned to defense, Nie Fei gave up the idea of ??playing the ball quickly and began to control the ball freely in the midfield. Newcastle controlled the ball and passed it back and forth in Real Madrid¡¯s half.

    The ball hit Stewart on the left. The young England winger did not make any brilliant fake move. Instead, he poked the ball behind Salgado, and then immediately rushed forward with his speed!

    Stewart successfully passed Salgado, and then passed the ball into the penalty area in front of the opponent. Ibrahimovic jumped high in the middle.  Beat Pavon with a header!

    Casillas made a wonderful save.  He lifted the ball over the crossbar with one palm!

    "Saint Casillas is indeed the most trustworthy person in Real Madrid's defense. It's a pity. How many times can you save Real Madrid by yourself?" Mourinho smiled slightly.

    Nie Fei took a corner kick, and it was Ibrahimovic who attracted the defense of Real Madrid's two central defenders at the front point and then headed the ball to the penalty spot. Dyer did not stop the ball and directly volleyed sideways!

    "Oh! Dyer hit the ball high! What a pity. If this goal could have been scored, it would have been extremely exciting!" Williams shouted regretfully. Indeed, Newcastle's series of attacks just now were very beautiful.  , two consecutive shots almost scored. Unfortunately, Casillas' miraculous performance saved them in the first time, and in the second time, Dyer was eager to shoot. If he could control the shot again, he would score.  The odds of the ball will be much greater.

    Mourinho, who had been watching the game nervously, was about to open his arms and cheer, but then he quickly put his hands down, waved them downward vigorously, and turned around with a regretful look on his face.  He was still mumbling and seemed very dissatisfied.?look.

    Queiroz gritted his teeth. Real Madrid had an absolute advantage in possession, but failed to create any good shooting opportunities at all. Although Newcastle's offense was less, it became more threatening every time. How can they still fight like this?

    "Don't be anxious They can't defend at this level for too long. Such large-scale running is a great drain on their physical fitness. As long as they can persist through the first half, they can continue to provide support to their defenders."  If we put pressure on them, they will definitely not have the physical strength to maintain this level of defense in the second half. We will have the advantage then! Don¡¯t panic, they won¡¯t last long.¡±

    It has to be said that although he has been working as an assistant coach for Ferguson, Queiroz still retains some vision as a coach, although his role at Real Madrid is to arrange training and then send superstars to play such a "head coach"  " role, but his vision still exists, otherwise Ferguson would not have let him serve as an assistant coach by his side for such a long time, and Florentino would not have let a completely incompetent person serve as the head coach of the Galacticos.  coach!

    Indeed, no team can defend for too long with this level of defense. After all, each of their players has to run much farther than usual, so that Real Madrid's superstars can't find any way to attack.  route, but players are not robots after all, how can they maintain such huge physical exertion forever?

    ¡°Let you be arrogant now, wait until the second half, it¡¯s time for us to fight back!  In such a game, the physical exertion of Newcastle players is much higher than ours!

    Therefore, although Newcastle's counterattack was extremely sharp, Queiroz did not make any move to ask Real Madrid players not to press too hard. The first is that he believed that Real Madrid should be able to score goals with its offensive strength. The second is that only in this way  Under the huge pressure, the physical energy of the Newcastle players will continue to be lost while running - if the pressure is reduced, the physical energy of the Newcastle players will not be consumed too much, and then there will only be a stalemate in the second half.  The situation is very unfavorable for Real Madrid, which is already one goal behind.

    And if Queiroz thinks about it, any team will definitely pay more attention to defense after gaining a lead against Real Madrid!

    But what Queiroz didn¡¯t know was that Mourinho had no intention of using this tactic throughout the game. What he wanted was to decide the outcome in the first half and gain a huge lead in the first half!

    The decision to decide the outcome in the first half was very arrogant, even a very irrational decision, especially when the opponent was Real Madrid, which has dominated almost all of Europe in the past few years and is recognized as the best football club in the 20th century!

    If this sentence were spread before the game, I'm afraid how many people would laugh out loud, and Mourinho's arrogant reputation would immediately spread throughout Europe - however, Mourinho is very arrogant, but  He made this decision, but it cannot be explained by arrogance alone.

    He does have a lot of confidence. In addition to the four advantages he mentioned to Pei Wei before the game, there is also a very important point, that is, the tactic adopted by Newcastle is an all-or-nothing tactic!

    It¡¯s just that other teams¡¯ all-or-nothing tactics usually appear in the second half. The so-called desperate tactics don¡¯t come at the most critical moment, so how can anyone use desperate tactics?

    But Mourinho put the decisive time in the first half, because at the beginning of the game, Newcastle players were able to maximize their physical advantages, that is to say, in the first half  They released their energy without reservation. If they couldn't solve the opponent in the first half, they couldn't solve it in another 45 minutes.

    If enough advantage can be established in the first half, then just use ordinary tactics to fight against the opponent in the second half. After all, no matter how good Newcastle's players are in physical fitness, they cannot run like this throughout the game - except for 02  Who among the Koreans in the 2018 World Cup could make almost all the players sprint through the entire game?

    And the so-called "huge advantage" is not just the lead now!  So when Newcastle scored the first goal, Mourinho did not celebrate too excitedly, but after Dyer missed that good opportunity, Mourinho showed great regret!

    "Damn it, don't you know we don't have much time?" Mourinho thought silently.

    One side is leading, the other is lagging behind, but the expressions of the head coaches of both sides are surprisingly similar. They are both biting their lips unconsciously, and the camera faithfully recorded this scene.
