Chapter 236 A Last-Ditch Fight, a Determination to Die!

"Free man?"

Portuguese superstar Cristiano Ronaldo looked puzzled.

He didn't seem to have heard of this term. To him, everything was very strange.

"Coach, what is this?"

Tony Kroos, who had been sitting on the bench for 45 minutes, supported his chin with his hand, looking thoughtful.

When he heard Zidane say this word, his eyebrows suddenly raised.

"Free man tactics?"

"Is it the classic German free man tactics?"

Zidane pointed at Kroos and nodded: "Yes."

Modric had heard of this system, but he didn't know much about it. After all, this thing has disappeared in the football world for a long time. Isn't it a bit of a joke to bring it out at this time?

And this tactic had never been touched by anyone in Real Madrid before, and there was no practical basis, and it had never been practiced in any occasion. This was too rash!

"Coach, I've heard of this tactic. It was one of the famous tactics in the early days of football, but... it's too outdated now."

"Football is making progress."

Zidane said calmly: "Don't question it. I have made improvements to this system."

"If you want to win, do as I say."

"If you lose the game, it's my responsibility. Do you understand?"

"I don't have time to prove its feasibility to you. You just need to believe in me unconditionally. OK, understand?"

The Real Madrid players instantly quieted down and listened to Zidane's description of this new concept.

After the disappearance of this set of classic tactics, many Real Madrid players have not even officially entered the field of football.

This word is really too unfamiliar to them.

But after thinking about it, maybe this is also Zidane's last killer, and it is accompanied by many disadvantages and is very unstable, so he took it out to gamble in this situation.

This is also Zidane's desperate move.

Bai Ran pricked up his ears and listened. This concept was not the first time in his mind. Zidane had done a lot of targeted training for himself before. Maybe all the preparations were for today.

Zidane said: "In the second half, we change the formation to 1333."

"1333!?"

Everyone was shocked. Everyone was shocked by this thing. Is this formation really possible! ?

I have never heard of it!

However, no one interrupted Zidane's words.

Zidane said: "As a free man, Bai Ran can appear in any position from the front court to the back court. Whether it is offense or defense, the whole team must play around Bai Ran."

As he said, Zidane placed several magnets on the tactical board. All the magnets were white, but one of them was black.

Obviously, this represents Bai Ran!

"Pepe, you need to take a break in the second half, Kroos, you come on."

"Carvajal is off, and you, Varane, are the ones to replace him."

"The three defensive players in the backcourt are Marcelo, Ramos and Varane."

"When you pass and receive the ball, you must keep Bai Ran in your sight."

"He is always your first choice, understand?"

"There are two defensive midfielders in the midfield, Kroos is the core of the backcourt organization, you can pass the ball more and take on the responsibility of assisting defense, Casemiro is mainly responsible for stealing and intercepting, and the intercepted ball is also given to Bai Ran."

"Modric is a supporting midfielder in the frontcourt, and the players on the forward line will not move for now."

Afterwards, Zidane arranged specific tactical arrangements for the players. In just 15 minutes, their spirits did not rest at all, and they all listened attentively to Zidane's description of this new football concept.

"Three man-marking defenders are responsible for marking the opponent's forwards, and the space behind them is protected by the libero."

"Bale, Cristiano, you two wingers mark the opponent's full-backs who come in from behind."

"Kroos and Casemiro, two defensive midfielders, cover the area in front of the defense line and mark the players who enter their own area."

"Bai Ran, as a libero, you don't have the task of marking. Use your ability to read the game to fill in the gaps in the defense line!"

"The most important thing in our tactics is pressure! When switching from defense to offense, immediately interfere with the opponent's ball-holding players, and even use fouls to delay the opponent's attack. The defensive players use the time gained by pressure to quickly follow their man-marking targets, and the libero uses this time to retreat!"

After the division of tasks on the defensive end was clarified, all the players probably had a tactical template in their minds and understood what Zidane meant.

Next, Zidane talked about what they needed to pay attention to on the offensive end.

"Libero Bai Ran is usually the first initiator of the attack. He advances the ball to the midfield and then chooses to continue to attack or stay in the midfield to assist!"

"Marcelo, you may need to participate in the attack frequently."

"On the attacking line, you must frequently and flexibly cross positions. When attacking, someone must open up the width of the formation on the wing. Bale, this task is left to you."

"Our offense emphasizes the overall layering. The forwards, midfielders, and defenders are closely spaced. There will always be someone behind and beside the ball-carrying player to assist and protect him. Especially Bai Ran, he must have the support of the whole court to play his role."

"We frequently use forwards to retreat and midfielders to disrupt the opponent's defense."

"Benzema, you have the most balanced ability, you must do a good job of retreating to respond."

After fifteen minutes, Zidane's endless narration was about to end, and almost everyone had understood the task assigned by Zidane.

The same is true for Bai Ran.

This game is no longer a game between the Galaxy Battleship and the Southern Star.

Under this lineup, it has completely become a contest between Bayern Munich and the team composed of 11 Bai Ran.

Bai Ran is the heart of Real Madrid and the brain of Real Madrid.

At the San Siro Stadium in Milan, Italy, everyone will witness this historic moment.

With little time left, the players stepped onto the green field again.

This time Real Madrid fought to the death.

They stepped onto this arena with the determination to die.

The cheers on the sidelines were still high and warm, and their hearts were also filled with incomparable surging waves.

The fans welcomed the second half of the game with thunderous applause.

Hundreds of millions of fans in front of the TV, and the guest commentators in the studio.

Mendes, Alice, and various agents.

Players and coaches of each team, as well as Messi, Raul and other football legends in the stands.

They were all watching the changes in this game.

In the second half, Real Madrid took the lead.

"Okay, after fifteen minutes of adjustment, we moved the camera back to the field again. The game between Bayern Munich and Real Madrid is still going on."

The commentator has also taken his seat and continued to bring everyone this vivid game.

"In the first half, we can see that Bayern Munich's performance and state are very good today, especially Thomas Muller, who frequently contributed threatening balls today."

"It really put a lot of pressure on Real Madrid."

"Real Madrid also made substitutions in the second half. Pepe on the back line was replaced by German midfielder Toni Kroos."

"Hiss...eh? I wonder if Zidane's substitution is a tactical change? It should be like this."

"I believe that the fans are like me, and they are also looking forward to what they will bring us in the second half..."

"Ah?"

"What!?"

The commentator's voice has not fallen yet, and the director directly gave the shot of the goal, and the commentator was dumbfounded!

"The ball went in!? Which side scored?"

His expression was dull. How could a goal be scored just a few seconds after the second half started?

He originally planned to introduce the situation of both sides to everyone, and then comment on the game. He was looking at the current affairs materials in his hand to organize his words. This... didn't give him any chance!

The situation on the field changed suddenly, and he didn't know what happened, but all of this was seen by the audience on the scene!

Some viewers didn't even have time to see the ball go in!

"Dear viewers, we were still watching the preparations for the second half, but we didn't expect a goal to be scored!"

"I didn't even notice it!"

Thunderous applause and cheers had already sounded at the scene, and the earth-shaking shouts resounded throughout the San Siro Stadium. When I looked up, I saw a sea of ​​white!

The director played the camera again, and the commentator focused his attention.

"Real Madrid took the lead in the middle circle, no problem."

"Bai Ran took the ball and passed it to Bale on the wing."

"What formation is this? Bai Ran seems to be running around the field. Real Madrid has three forwards, midfielders and defenders. Bai Ran is the one who connects them. Is that what you mean?"

"Balel rushed to the wing and opened up a very large space."

"The formations of both sides were suddenly stretched to a very wide extent by Bale."

"During this gap, Bai Ran took advantage of the opportunity to connect. Bale was returned to Bai Ran. Bai Ran did not panic at all in the face of Boateng. He passed Boateng with a simple bicycle after his feet were full of wind, and then You can shoot now!"

"Oh? Bai Ran was not in a hurry, thinking that this position was not good enough! He was really patient!"

"He passed it to Benzema in the middle, who turned around after protecting the ball. His eyes seemed to be looking for something at any time. Finally, after seeing Bai Ran's running position, he seemed to have found the destination and passed the ball to Bai Ran. Bai Ran was facing the opponent's goalkeeper at this time, one-on-one!"

"Finally, he pushed the ball lightly... and the ball went in. "

"..."

"Oh my God, this series of smooth cooperation almost made me lose my breath!"

"What a wonderful goal!"

It seemed like they had one more person on the forward line!

"The score has been rewritten!"

"Real Madrid made great achievements at the beginning of the second half, scoring a goal, and the score is now 4-2! Bayern Munich is leading by two goals!"

After scoring the goal, Bai Ran was very excited. He jumped high while running wildly on the sidelines, waving his arms in great excitement, and finally ran quickly to the vicinity of the Real Madrid coaching bench, made an extremely domineering sliding kneeling action, and made a handsome salute with his hands!

Is this a response to Zidane's successful tactical execution!

So cool!

Zidane was also very excited. This was not only Real Madrid's self-redemption, but also the coach's great affirmation of his own tactics!

Before this, no one in Real Madrid had even heard of this term, but today, Zidane used this system with great courage!

They took the lead as soon as the game started, it was so beautiful!

Everyone played Zidane's tactics to the fullest, and their running positions were not like they had never been exposed to this lineup.

This proves that Zidane has actually subtly instilled this concept into the players' minds within half a season.

Although they have not experienced it personally, nor have they become part of this system.

But they have planted this seed in their usual training, confrontation and competition.

Now it is time for this tactical system to take root and sprout.

The fans on the sidelines kept shouting Bai Ran's name, and Bai Ran also stood up and patted his chest, giving great encouragement to the fans.

Of course, Zidane was also very proud in his heart.

In the studio, the famous commentator Wilson also shouted: "Good shot!"

"Good shot!"

"Bai Ran is a very talented player. You can see that he is crucial to the team's entire offensive line from midfield to frontcourt."

"This makes the entire Real Madrid offensive line feel more three-dimensional."

Gary Neville on the side said: "Well, Bai Ran is indeed very strong."

"But I feel that this is just Bayern's carelessness at the beginning, and they missed a goal."

"Look at this kind of ball, Boateng is completely like he hasn't woken up yet, and he didn't even step forward to steal the ball."

Looking at Neville's unconvinced look, Wilson laughed and shook his head.

The comments on the Internet were also blown up.

Real Madrid, who lost 4 goals in the first half, actually scored a goal at the beginning of the second half of the game. What does this goal mean?

Will this be the beginning of Real Madrid's Jedi counterattack?

The game on the field continued, and Bayern Munich started to serve in the middle circle.

The referee of this game is a world-famous referee, and the penalty standards for this game are also quite strict. Fortunately, there is no strong conflict between the two sides. Although the game is exciting, there are very few small actions and malicious fouls.

Both sides can be regarded as heroes who appreciate each other and have not made too many actions. Although the gunpowder smell is strong, football is their first goal.

Bayern still relies on the explosive points on the wing to attack. Because Real Madrid has three people on the back line, it is easier to be beaten on the wing.

What's more, Varane, who is now on the court, does not have a strong feeling. He has just come on the court and has ushered in a huge challenge. Ribery dribbles the ball at high speed on the wing, still the familiar corridor, still the familiar position.

And this time, Carvajal was replaced, and now standing in front of Ribery is Varane!

His height and strong physical advantages are gone. Under the system serving the free man, Varane voluntarily gave up all his advantages and became an ordinary chess piece.

He bent down and stared at Ribery's movements with full concentration, and Ribery's advancement speed also slowed down. His right foot slowly moved the ball. No one knew what his next move would be.

At this moment, he suddenly started the assault and pushed the ball to the outside of the penalty area. Ribery cut inside!

Varane immediately followed, his body close to Ribery!

Although his height advantage was not reflected, his arms were very long. During the running process, the battle-hardened Varane was also very experienced in the game. He directly used the swing of his upper limbs to affect Ribery's route.

At this moment, Thomas Muller, who was inserted in the middle, was waving for the ball. Ribery made a direct pass in the crisis, and the ball was passed directly to Thomas Muller.

It was this point again, and it was this flexible Muller again!

Will this German core midfielder shoot directly! ?

"Ramos!"

A voice broke through the air above the San Siro stadium, it was Bai Ran's shout!

Ramos was immediately shocked when he faced Muller. This scene was exactly the same as the goal in the first half. Ramos had tried his best to defend, but he still couldn't stop Muller's super performance.

At this moment, the scene in the first half seemed to be reproduced!

This feeling was very familiar, and it also made Ramos very frightened.

Muller and the opponent's forward line were right in front of him. If this ball went in again, it would be a huge challenge to his own confidence.

At this moment, Bai Ran's shouting seemed to call the Spanish captain back to reality from his meditation!

As if he came to his senses, Ramos instantly remembered what Zidane said, nodded to Bai Ran, and then went forward to press Muller, not allowing him any shooting space.

As long as Muller's shooting possibility was blocked, they didn't have to worry about Muller.

His strongest point was positioning and feints, creating greater chaos in the opponent's penalty area, because there were too many possibilities for him to come out.

However, even if Thomas Muller has 10,000 possibilities, as long as he blocks 9,999 of them, then even if he is a god, only that one possibility will work!

After Thomas Muller received Ribery's pass, he was like a fish in water in this position, and he could create a great threat.

But this time, when he looked up...

Ribery behind him was already being watched by Varane, and the path of his shot was also blocked by Ramos who rushed up.

On the other side, Douglas Costa was closely guarded by Marcelo, and it seemed that many routes were blocked!

Real Madrid's defense line has improved a lot compared to the first half!

Damn it...

Thomas Muller didn't know what to do for a moment, but the next second, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth!

With this level, you want to keep me in check?

He saw Lewandowski who was asking for the ball in front of him at a glance!

As long as the ball is passed to Lewandowski, he can stop the ball with his chest and turn around to volley!

Just pass it to him!

Thinking of this, Muller passed the ball without hesitation, and the ball came in front of Lewandowski!

However, at this moment, a white figure suddenly broke into everyone's field of vision...
