Chapter 272 Just a little bleeding
Five minutes after Atletico scored, Juanfran made a run forward and passed the ball to Gabi in front of the penalty area, who then passed the ball to the side.
Thiago unloaded the ball steadily and tapped it lightly, and the ball suddenly came to Griezmann's feet.
Leandri opened his hands slightly, cautiously waiting for the Frenchman's next move.
Varane and Carvajal double-teamed him, but the young and smart Griezmann pulled sideways and passed the ball calmly to Siqueira who was making a forward run.
"Griezmann is double-teamed, can he get through? Beautiful, ghostly pass, Siqueira shoots--!"
Atletico Madrid's commentator was like a rooster with its neck strangled, and his originally high-pitched voice was suddenly silenced by external force.
"Why is Siqueira here? No one is guarding him!"
"Oh my god!!! Ryan! Ryan saves the day on the goal line!"
At the moment when Siqueira made a forward advance, Leandri's sight just caught him. Even though Griezmann was so close to him, he did not dare to be careless and leave an opponent in the backcourt who was not guarded by anyone.
Khedira failed to notice Siqueira's position. When the latter received the pass from Griezmann, he was a little confused, but he still subconsciously sent a high-quality shot without stopping the ball.
The speed is incredibly fast and the position is incredibly tricky. If this ball goes in, it will most likely be a world-class goal.
At the critical moment, Leandri quickly moved two steps sideways and jumped forward, grabbing the ball dangerously.
Cheers and sighs rang out at the same time, but before everyone could react, Leandri had already run to the penalty area line with the ball and suddenly kicked the ball!
Without looking for a defender to pass the ball or a midfielder to organize the game, Leandri connected directly with the forward line.
C Ronaldo at the front point was very excited. He had seen Atletico's frontcourt bombing in great shape, but Real Madrid was facing many difficulties in the midfield. Khedira and Isco were unable to fill the gap left by James Rodriguez and Modric. Kroos's defensive midfielder attribute had just been thought up by Ancelotti and had not been developed much. Xiao Kuan not only had to organize the attack but also had to frequently retreat to block Atletico's opponents who were in great form, which was really difficult.
Real Madrid only had the very expensive BBC combination in the frontcourt, but in fact these three people hardly touched the ball in the first 20 minutes of today's game, let alone effective shots.
Juanfran was trying hard to reverse, and this guy just seized the opportunity to participate in a very beautiful attack, but unfortunately it was fruitless, and he even gave Leandri a chance to counterattack.
In front of Ronaldo there were only Atletico Madrid's central defender Miranda and goalkeeper Moya, while Benzema and Bale helped to contain the other two defenders.
Running with the ball, Ronaldo used a series of feints on the wing and his speed to eat up his opponent. Seeing this, Godin could only leave Benzema behind and quickly go over to assist in defense.
Leandri saw that Benzema was already waving for the ball, and there were gaps in front of both of them. He didn't know what Ronaldo would choose. Would he pass the ball in front of the goal to play two against one just to be on the safe side?
Kick the ball and touch it!
SIUUUUUU!
After holding back for more than 20 minutes, Ronaldo finally let his iconic celebration resound throughout the stadium. Leandri, who had been feeling aggrieved for more than 20 minutes, couldn't help but rushed to Ronaldo and pounced on him.
"Cris, we scored a goal!"
Luo Ge was still excited as he carried the prince up the tree, "Give me the ball, I can score a goal!"
“We can score!”
Leandri looked at the Portuguese player with veins bulging out so close to him, and his leadership on the field was revealed at this moment. The courage of a single man standing against a thousand enemies was what Real Madrid, which was full of injured players, needed most at this moment.
He once worked hard to support the team when he was in Castilla and Leverkusen. When he returned to Real Madrid, he learned more from the mental attributes of the older players such as Casillas, Ramos and Ronaldo.
Hold on, stand up, and influence the people around you.
Real Madrid's morale recovered a little because of this goal, but as the opponent continued to attack, Real Madrid players were forced to lose the ball and always failed to chase back, and Leandri's goal was bombarded again.
Atletico Madrid is preparing to give Real Madrid a beating today with the idea that "thunder and rain are all grace from the king". Given Real Madrid's current condition, Simeone would feel sorry for the milk he drank in the morning if he doesn't take some points from him.
With a wave of his hand, Atletico Madrid launched another more fierce attack.
In the 25th minute, Mandzukic's shot from the penalty spot was blocked by Nacho.
In the 29th minute, Thiago received a pass from Godin and was about to launch a blitzkrieg but was spotted by Kroos, who has a keen sense of smell and high football IQ. The two used their bodies to block each other near the center circle. In the end, Xiao Kuan had no choice but to pull the man down with his hands.
Ding, the Yellow Sapphire God of War card!
Xiao Kuan, who was forced to be both a father and a mother in Madrid at a young age, sighed with difficulty, pulled the man up with great apology, and looked back at the handsome guy standing in front of the door.
The person standing there shining brightly is my boyfriend. The health bar of the introverted German guy has recovered a little.
In the 34th minute, Griezmann, who successfully broke through the offside trap, received a pass from the backcourt. The unguarded young striker kicked the ball in front of the penalty area, but the ball was predicted by Leandri and fell into his arms.
Griezmann tried to counter-attack, but Leandri passed right past him with another incredibly fast counterattack.
The ball flew over everyone's heads and went straight to Bale.
The Monkey King stepped on the auspicious clouds and took big strides forward to catch up. He was very fast and the pass seemed to come to him accurately according to his habit. When the ball began to fall, Bale just stretched out his foot and knocked the ball away with the outside of his foot.
His graceful ball-stopping skills seemed like something out of a fantasy movie.
After unloading the ball, Bale continued to run wildly. He used his speed to eat up Siqueira's blocking and shot at a small angle in front of the baseline.
The ball hit the goal post and flew out of the bottom line.
Leandri looked around in the backcourt and felt a little sorry to see that he returned empty-handed.
"We can see that Leandri is playing the Premier League's favorite long pass directly on the court, and the effect is pretty good so far."
"This is the most suitable for Real Madrid right now. Without a well-coordinated defense and a midfield that can't provide support, Real Madrid's luxurious offensive line will be useless. It would be better to let Leandri and Kroos, who are good at footwork, play long passes and lobs. As long as the ball is sent to the striker and BBC can have a flash of inspiration even once, Real Madrid will have a chance. We have seen hope from the two shots just now."
"Who would have thought that Real Madrid now has to rely on the goalkeeper to make such a long pass to bombard the goal? Under Atletico's fierce defense, even Kroos now has few opportunities to pass the ball. Fortunately, Leandri's footwork is really powerful."
"Although the score is now 1-1, Real Madrid is lagging behind in all the statistics on the field. The only thing higher than Atletico is the number of saves by the goalkeeper. Real Madrid is still in a very dangerous situation."
In the 43rd minute, the Croatian striker received a pass from Gabi and passed it back to Thiago, who continuously dribbled the ball and changed direction to avoid Khedira's defense and then passed the ball again.
The target was Mandzukic, who had already run to the front of the goal and was bullying Nacho by relying on his height!
High ball!
Mandzukic jumped high in the face of the incoming ball and put all his strength on his forehead.
Leandri immediately pushed the ground with his feet and rushed to the left side of the goal to save the ball, and grabbed the aggressive ball with both hands at the critical moment.
"Call the team doctor!" Nacho was the first to notice something was wrong.
It turned out that Leandri accidentally hit his forehead on the goalpost when he was falling to save the ball.
Fine red blood flowed down the bridge of the nose and eyes. The referee immediately suspended the game and asked the Real Madrid team doctor to come on the court.
Ancelotti on the sidelines immediately asked Casillas to warm up and prepare to go on the court.
There was a scratch on the eyebrow bone, and the team doctor checked it and gave a conclusion.
When Leandri heard that it was just a minor problem, he said, "It's not a big deal, just a little bleeding. Just help me stop the bleeding. I can hold on. It's not a serious injury."
Kroos felt a little distressed, but he couldn't do anything under the watchful eyes of everyone. He just squatted beside him and held Leandri's arm while the team doctor treated his wound. His tense muscles clearly told him that the pain was not as easy as it seemed.
[Don’t say that, although our Leandri looks sweet, he actually has a very unique personality. ]
[This is true. He has a sweet face, but a hot temper. He really goes to the field when something happens. He stretched out his hand to block Pepe and Ramos and pushed them to the back. They were all dumbfounded.]
[Ryan bleeds on the field several times, he really fought hard. I didn’t have much hope when playing against Atletico Madrid today, thinking that a small loss would be a win, but Ryan didn’t want to. He really risked his life to save the ball. Our prince really perfectly meets all the requirements of our Real Madrid successor. I am in tears]
[Praise Ryan. In order to praise Ryan, I unilaterally announce that I will marry him! ]
[Brother, if you have a grudge against Ryan, just tell me! ]
The game started again. A small piece of gauze did not affect Leandri's performance. He jumped up and stretched out his hand to take it. Leandri easily took off Gabi's long shot. The referee also blew the whistle for the first half of the game.
During the half-time break, the team doctor re-attended the wound that was bleeding, and others quickly massaged the players to relax their muscles. Our physical reserves were already insufficient, and today we faced a tough opponent like Atletico Madrid, so the second half will definitely be a tough battle.
At the beginning of the second half, Ancelotti replaced Khedira with Jesse. Jesse, who suffered a serious injury in the match against Schalke last year, returned to the team.
After the change of sides, within two minutes Leandri had roughly guessed what Simeone said to the players during the half-time break, and even people watching the game all over the world knew it.
To put it bluntly, Simeone's tactical arrangement is to attack you while you are weak. Your midfield is fragmented now, right? So I will attack your weakest point.
In the 49th minute, Aranda Turan pulled down Isco, cutting off Real Madrid's midfield connection which had finally improved.
In the 52nd minute, Raul Garcia also committed a tactical foul by pulling Kroos. Xiao Kuan was just following the head coach's request to make a long pass from the backcourt, but he was knocked down before the ball left his feet.
Real Madrid's rhythm was interrupted again and again.
After the free kick, Kroos did not give the ball directly to BBC but cooperated with Jesse, which also worked. All Atletico players were pulled by their own forward line. Jesse, who was unguarded, rushed towards Atletico's half with the ball, but was brought down by Godin when he was about to step into the penalty area.
In five minutes, Atletico Madrid received three consecutive yellow cards!
But such tactical fouls are indeed effective. The performances of Ronaldo and Leandri in the first half caused Real Madrid's morale, which had been hard-earned, to fall to the bottom again.
