Chapter 50 What are you thankful for?

During the halftime break, the commentators and guests of various TV stations believed that although Real Madrid conceded the ball, they had the upper hand. They almost defeated Atletico Madrid. Some experts suggested that Real Madrid players should pay attention to the efficiency of seizing opportunities, so that Real Madrid is likely to beat Atletico Madrid in the second half.

"...It's difficult to curb Real Madrid, because Cristiano is in good shape today. He performed very actively in the first half. Basically, Real Madrid's threatening offense is caused by him... If Atletico Madrid wants to reverse this passively beaten situation, he has to strengthen his defense against Cristiano..."

Someone also talked about Gao Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo. Although not many people knew about Gao Zheng’s challenge to Ronaldo, everyone would still compare them together.

"...Hao and Cristiano Ronaldo both scored one goal in the first half, but in terms of performance activity, the Portuguese is better than the Chinese. Apart from the goal higher than that, the first half basically disappeared..." The guest of the TV station talked, but his words were refuted by another guest.

"No, he has another foul, and he was also taken care of by the broadcast camera close-up!" The guest said seriously.

This made everyone laugh, and the last serious guest couldn't hold back and laughed: "Okay, this is no different from disappearing..."

"Gao, Simeone said you did a good job. He hopes you can continue to be patient in the second half." In the visiting team's locker room, assistant coach Boggs was talking to the players with his cell phone. On the phone was a message sent to him by Simeone about the arrangements for the second half.

"It's not just high, everyone must be patient. In this game, our tactics are defensive counterattacks, and even if the score is equalized, it's defensive counterattacks. Because this is Real Madrid's home court, they are eager to win, not us. So even if it's 1:1, we won't be anxious in the end..."

"As long as we can ensure that we don't lose the ball, there will be some games. So we must defend with all our might in the second half, strive to not lose the ball, and as long as we don't lose the ball, it can hit the opponent's morale. Gabi and Thiago, you should pay attention to protecting the area in front of the central defender. As for Cork and Garcia on both sides, you have to work harder and connect more..."

He arranged tactics one by one according to the instructions left by Simeone.

At the same time, in the home team's locker room, Ancelotti is also arranging the team's tactics in the second half.

He just praised Cristiano Ronaldo for his performance and reiterated his strategy of continuing to attack with Ronaldo as the core in the second half.

The rest of the team is required to cooperate with Ronaldo.

At the end of the halftime break and everyone was about to play, Ronaldo was the first to jump out of his seat. He slapped hard and encouraged his teammates loudly: "Come on, guys! This is our home court, and the one we should be afraid of is Atletico Madrid! We can definitely beat them here!"

"Chris is right, we can definitely beat them!" Captain Casillas expressed his support for Cristiano Ronaldo.

"Let's take revenge and settle the Spanish Super Cup account with them here!" Sergio Ramos also echoed loudly.

Other Real Madrid players stood up and expressed their confidence through roars.

When Ancelotti saw this scene, she showed a gratified smile on her face.

Morale is available.

At the beginning of the second half, neither side made a substitution and retained the lineup for the first half.

Real Madrid also continued their performance in the first half. Ronaldo is still the most active person. Atletico Madrid has to send more players to defend Cristiano Ronaldo, but even so, it is difficult for them to defend him, and it has also led to insufficient defensive forces in other places.

The second half was just two minutes old. In the 47th minute, Ronaldo sent a pass. Jameel Rodriguez received the ball twenty-five meters away from the goal, and then took a kick, but his shot was above the crossbar.

"James once again wasted the opportunities created by Ronaldo. He got several opportunities in this game, but none of them seized... To be honest, this midfielder star who spent 75 million to buy from Monaco was disappointing. The same money cost at least two league goals..." Goltv's commentator Ray Hudson criticized without mercy. He is famous for his various tricks to praise the players, but he is also a very strict commentator. If the players perform poorly, he will not save any face when commenting.

In the 51st minute, Aveloa passed the ball and Pepe missed the long shot.

Even the central defender pushed up and shot from a long time, which shows what the current situation of Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid are like.

Facing Real Madrid's offense, Atletico Madrid can only shrink its defense at all levels.

Next, Gabi fouled Cristiano Ronaldo, who was active in defense, and received a yellow card.

"Ronaldo really put a huge pressure on Atletico Madrid's defense line, and Gabi got a yellow card on him. I think if the game continues like this, Atletico Madrid will probably have more defenders taking cards on him, which is not a good thing..." Jose Maria's words made Atletico Madrid fans worried.

Originally, they took the lead ten minutes into the game, which should be a great start. After Gao Zheng scored a goal, they were thinking about how Atletico Madrid would do everything in the future and completely kill the suspense of the game away.

Unexpectedly, since then, Atletico Madrid has not gained any decent opportunities. Basically, it is all Real Madrid's offense. Even if Atletico Madrid has some offensive opportunities occasionally, it is difficult to threaten Real Madrid's goal.

In the Spanish Super Cup, they once defeated Real Madrid, drew 1-1 at home, and returned to home to defeat the opponent. In addition, in the league last season, Atletico Madrid completed a double-kill against Real Madrid. Every Atletico Madrid fan took it for granted that their team finally had the ability to lift Real Madrid off the position of Madrid's boss.

Therefore, the first Madrid City Derby in the new season gave high expectations for Atletico Madrid fans.

Everyone hopes that their team can beat Real Madrid again away, although Atletico Madrid has never done this before...

But now it seems that this is probably the real strength of Real Madrid at home. Even if they concede one goal first, they can still quickly stabilize their position, equalize the score, and constantly threaten Atletico Madrid's goal.

Seeing Gabi complaining for his yellow card, Gao Zheng shook his head gently.

This is not his first Madrid derby. He has participated in three Madrid derbys recently, but this game impressed him.

This is the excellence of the new UEFA Champions League title...

He turned his sight to Cristiano Ronaldo who had climbed up from the ground. In terms of performance, he was indeed much more active than himself.

However, Gao Zheng did not feel depressed or sad at all.

Even he is what he wants to see.

Otherwise, why would he come to Spain specifically from Italy?

Isn’t it just to be on such a stage and face such a powerful enemy?

very nice!

Thinking of this, Gao Zheng couldn't help laughing.

Sergio Ramos was focusing on Gao Zheng when his teammates besieged Atletico Madrid.

Since being humiliated by Gao Zheng in the Spanish Super Cup, he has vowed not to let Gao Zheng score.

As a result, just ten minutes into the game, Gao Zheng scored a goal, and it was under his nose.

This made Ramos angry, so he and Gao Zheng got into this game. In the previous game, Atletico Madrid had some counterattacks, and when they came to Gao Zheng, they were destroyed by Ramos using his physical strength advantage.

Gao Zheng did not gain any advantage in Ramos, which is also one of the main reasons why Atletico Madrid can only be beaten passively.

Ramos, whose eyes were all the way to Gao Zheng, noticed that Gao Zheng was actually smiling!

He was actually laughing when his team was pressed to the ground and rubbed!

Ramos stared at Gao Zheng with wide eyes, feeling that this kid's mind was soaked. How could he still laugh?

Standing beside Gao Zheng, he asked in surprise: "Why are you laughing at?!"

Gao Zheng heard his questioning and turned his head to look at him, with a smile on his face and said to him: "Thank you."

Thank you for being so powerful that my victory is more valuable.

Ramos still understood the Spanish "thank you" but he didn't understand why Gao Zheng said thank you at all.

What are you thanking for?

We are fighting with you!

You kid are actually our undercover agent, right? You joined Atletico Madrid to help us win, right?

Ramos had some random thoughts for a moment, and he really couldn't keep up with the Chinese boy's ideas.
Chapter completed!
