Chapter 223 Champions League: vs. Juventus (V)
The first half of the game had completely fallen into a tense state, with both sides now relying entirely on their own bodies to pull back and forth on the left and right lines.
Eggsy was sweating profusely. As he was returning to defense, he retreated while pulling off his loose rubber band with both hands and biting it on his mouth, while he was also smoothing his hair with both hands.
Eggsy tied his dark, shiny and smooth hair into a high ponytail and tied it up smoothly. Eggsy had no idea that the purple No. 14 jersey was sticking to him, outlining his figure to the fullest!
Especially today, Real Madrid played away, so everyone was wearing purple jerseys. To be honest, when this color came out, it really made everyone feel powerless to complain!
Moreover, this jersey also adopts the latest sweat-absorbing technology. As soon as you sweat, the jersey will stick to your body and absorb your sweat, while keeping you warm.
It sounds good, but imagine how you feel when you are covered in sweat and your clothes are sticking to your body? Anyway, by the end, it is no wonder that the eyes of the female fans in the stadium were all bright. The female fans on the sidelines were looking at those long and thin white legs, plus the round and perky buttocks, and the most fatal thing was Eggsy's thin and flexible waist.
Moreover, Eggsy, who had just tied his hair, found that his jersey was stuck to his body. He subconsciously pulled his jersey, revealing his wasp waist. His white jade skin and distinct mermaid lines really made all the female and male fans in the audience gasp!
Kroos on the side quickly came over and pulled down the hem of Eggsy's shirt, which was lifted up to fan the wind! The beautiful spring light immediately disappeared under the purple jersey~
"Tsk~"
One by one, the fans in the stands began to express their dissatisfaction with Kroos, and there were even a few old perverts who started booing him!
Cross didn't care about the boos from the fans at all. He just reminded Eggsy: "Don't lift up your clothes casually." After that, he left, leaving Eggsy, who had just had his clothes pulled off, still thinking.
Why is he pulling my jersey? Can I catch a cold? Although Eggsy didn't quite understand, he still pulled his shirt hem obediently and ran back to his seat, not noticing that the eyes of other fans were glued to him!
As Eggsy retreated backwards, he was still looking at the positions of his players. His movements of three steps back and one step back on both sides were exactly the same as Kroos's.
Wow, the movements of these two people are synchronized, which shows that Real Madrid’s training of players is really quite powerful. Because synchronized training can synchronize the overall offense and keep up with the tacit understanding, so you often see players doing the same movements at the same time on the court, it is because they have undergone such special training.
At this time, Eggsy and Cross were responsible for organizing the offense and defense of the entire team, so the two of them had already entered a synchronized state. They only needed a glance to understand each other's eyes and be able to make coordinated actions.
So the two of them blocked all kinds of attacks from Juventus and tried their best to fight back. It seemed that Eggsy and Kroos really didn't think about anything else. They had to maintain the 1-point advantage in the first half at all costs, and the whole team played defensive counterattacks.
But to be honest, even Juventus' coach was wondering, why is Real Madrid so persistent in letting them kick the ball to the back line of defense before they start to rebound? Aren't they afraid that they will really double-team from left and right, and completely destroy the 1-point advantage that Real Madrid just got?
Why must they attack the back line? Of course it was Zidane's idea.
In the pre-match meeting before the game started, Zidane specifically told them not to worry about the defense line. The two defenders for their defense this time were the two with the best physical strength that he specially found from the bench.
And speaking of physical strength, we have to thank Antonio Pintus, Real Madrid's physical fitness coach. If it weren't for him, the physical fitness of the entire Real Madrid might not be as good as it is now. Pintus was specially found by Zidane when he organized the coaching team, with only one purpose: to make the physical fitness of all the main players of Real Madrid soar!
Because only with such sufficient physical strength can Real Madrid be able to play all the tactics they want.
In terms of physical strength, Zidane used a ruthless trick on Juventus today, that is, kite flying. Every attack of Juventus went deep into the most densely defended part of Real Madrid's lineup, and Zidane not only let the defenders intercept, but also midfielders Eggesi and Kroos had the task of trying their best to entangle all Juventus players who came with the ball.
Other defensive midfielders and attacking midfielders also had the task of blocking, which increased Juventus's consumption in Real Madrid's half. Moreover, when dribbling and attacking, it was like being stuck in a quagmire, and sometimes even reached a dilemma.
This is really... difficult.
But their attack was still swift and fierce. At least the defenders and midfielders of Real Madrid were soaked. Eggsy even took off his gloves. Otherwise, the sweat on his body would always make the black gloves slide down, which was very uncomfortable.
Eggsy took a deep breath as he watched Juventus's upcoming attack. Kroos was also panting at this time, but their faces were still full of energy, and they were still forming a new blocking pattern with other teammates.
On the other hand, Juventus' attack speed had dropped significantly in the 39th minute of the first half. It was not that they had no physical strength, but that they could not keep up with the speed and frequency of their attack. Compared with the Real Madrid players who could still run frequently, they were obviously tired.
Higuain was still unwilling to give up the attack. Even though he could no longer cut into the middle, he continued to threaten Real Madrid's goal with several of his wingers.
Although Real Madrid played with ease, their performance was extremely dangerous, especially when Juventus attacked on both flanks. If Navas had not taken the initiative several times, the balls would have slipped through as the defenders struggled under the bombardment.
It was because it seemed that Juventus still had the offensive advantage that the head coach of Juventus did not change the lineup and continued to play strong offense. He actually saw that his players could not keep up with the speed, but he felt that this was not a big problem. It would be halftime soon, and they could hold on for a while and then win back in the second half!
Soon the halftime break that everyone had been looking forward to arrived. Eggsy and Kroos looked at each other. They and the defenders behind them were almost the same, and each of them looked like they had been fished out of the water.
Eggsy's hair was covered in sweat, so he grabbed the corner of his clothes and wiped his face.
The little guy didn't notice at all that he had completely exposed his abdomen. Looking at his fair skin like jade and his flexible waist wrapped in beautiful abdominal muscles, Eggsy pulled up his jersey and touched his face, then started to jog towards the rest area.
At this moment, he was still thinking about the tactics for the second half and the situation he was seeing now. He was thinking about how to deploy the tactics for the second half and he didn't notice the flashing lights exploding on the sidelines, which had already exploded into a sea.
Eggsy came running back, and Zidane was almost gritting his teeth! But in the end, he still didn't scold Eggsy, because Eggsy covered his mouth, pulled Zidane behind him, and began to talk about the problems he had found.
This incident directly suppressed Zidane's subsequent anger. Zidane also knew that now was definitely not the time to vent his anger on Eggsy, so he simply listened to what Eggsy had discovered. After hearing this, Zidane immediately reacted and turned around and asked everyone to return to the locker room.
In the locker room, Eggsy and Kroos immediately took off their jerseys and wiped off their sweat with towels. They didn't dare to take a shower at this time. The temperature was not warm, and they would be more likely to get sick if the cold wind blew over their sweaty bodies.
So just wipe it dry with a towel. After Eggsy and other teammates changed their jerseys and came out, they looked at Zidane looking at the tactical board as if he was thinking about something.
At the beginning of the second half, the players on both sides recovered a little bit, but it was nothing. It was just that Zidane secretly laughed in his heart when he saw that Juventus's position had not changed.
However, he immediately reminded himself not to be too happy, because the positioning does not represent tactics. What if Juventus changed the tactics because they saw that they were exhausted in the first half?
The second half started with Real Madrid's attack. The starting point of Real Madrid's attack was definitely Eggsy. At this time, after looking at Bale and Ronaldo on the field, he immediately started serving the ball.
When this ball came out, everyone in the stadium felt something was wrong!
So fast!!
Eggsy started from the midfield, broke through the first defense, and then reached the second Juventus player who intercepted him. It took less than 5 seconds in total. Then he accelerated and passed the ball to the right in less than 10 seconds in total!
15 seconds! Ronaldo and Bale were running the whole time, and some of the Juventus players didn’t react in time—it was too fast!!!
In just 20 seconds, Real Madrid had launched an all-out attack, leaving Juventus with no chance to breathe or react before they were at the gates.
Ronaldo received the ball from Eggsy without any hesitation and volleyed the ball directly from the air.
"Ball! Goal!!!"
"34 seconds into the second half! Eggsy passes the ball to Ronaldo, who makes a beautiful volley from the left! Buffon fails to save the ball - Real Madrid leads 2:0!!"
