Chapter 459 Become famous with one goal? What a shame!
Pellegrini's ambitions evaporated less than 10 minutes into the game at Elland Road.
His eyes were solemn and his heart was in turmoil.
The gap between the two teams was clear at a glance.
Leeds United's midfielder can suppress Real Madrid in all aspects of organization, defense and creativity.
He who wins the midfield wins the world.
The efficiency and quality of midfield operations determine the environment in which the forwards perform and how much strength the forwards can exert.
Real Madrid has Ronaldo, Benzema and Higuain.
However, if they are reluctant to connect with their teammates and are unable to accelerate and explode on the basis of smooth forward movement to directly form impact and lethality, then their threat will naturally be greatly reduced.
Not to mention that it is difficult to form a more varied and smooth cooperation with teammates in a state of chasing ducks.
Ultimately, Real Madrid does not have a technical and tactical system for top-level competitions.
Alonso can switch offense and defense, but Granero cannot bring speed and threatening ball delivery, so the pressure will be on the wing.
Ronaldo can respond, but he wants to go from receiving to advancing, to creating a threat, and even finishing.
He is not an unknown person, and Leeds United will not give him such loose space.
Higuain can't be counted on even more on the right wing.
There is currently no particularly outstanding chemical reaction between the front three.
The technical and tactical style of free coordination of forwards like South America does not appear in Real Madrid's forwards.
They still rely on the midfield and backfield team system to deliver cannonballs.
Once the midfield and backfield are suppressed, the forward line will be cut off and become isolated and helpless.
Playing against a weak team, Real Madrid cannot find these problems.
Real Madrid lost to Barcelona in the league more than three months ago.
This means it will be forgotten, and it will also make people wishful thinking that the team will grow in more than three months.
Until I met Leeds United.
Only then did Pellegrini realize that he was helpless in the face of this adversity in the overall situation!
Whether coaching Villarreal or Real Madrid, which seems to be full of talent.
There seemed to be no difference in front of Leeds United.
Ronaldo was a little anxious on the court.
He couldn't help but be impatient.
In the Premier League, they can't beat Leeds United.
Until he left, he could not escape the shadow of "there is only one Ronaldo in the Premier League".
Now that alien Ronaldo is 33 years old, he still seems to be suppressed in direct conversations.
The 23-year-old Ronaldo needs to be able to score goals single-handedly on the field to make the world look at him differently.
But Ronaldo, who is 33 years old and already famous, doesn't need it anymore. He just needs to score goals, no matter how he uses them.
His popularity in this era is historic.
As long as he can score goals, people will cheer for him and give him high praise.
Is it fair?
Nothing unfair.
Because Ronaldo's popularity was also accumulated during his previous career.
At this age, it is normal to rest on your laurels when your sword and gun are about to be put into storage.
But for Ronaldo, if he wants to become the MVP in a direct dialogue with Leeds United, it is not just as simple as scoring goals, but also winning and leading Real Madrid to win!
When Cristiano Ronaldo was controlling the ball in the frontcourt, he suddenly hit the ball hard and broke through Belletti. Although he succeeded, he was promptly assisted by Thiago Silva before catching up with the ball and destroyed the ball out of the sideline. outside.
Ronaldo waved to his teammates with an anxious look on his face, hoping to have more support points around him.
Real Madrid's offense shifted from the left to the right, and after Arbeloa reached the frontcourt and completed a pass, the offense ended.
Benzema's grab was in vain when Neuer attacked and confiscated the ball.
Cristiano Ronaldo, who was responding from afar, looked disappointed.
When the ball was transferred to Leeds United, Real Madrid felt a little uncomfortable.
This discomfort stems from the pressure caused by Leeds United's pressing offense and defense, and Leeds United's ability to attack more frequently. As a result, Real Madrid is far inferior to Leeds United in terms of offensive frequency and quality.
But their defense still had to face the stormy impact of Leeds United.
Modric and Kaka's high-level impact in the middle left Diarra and Alonso unable to defend.
The wings were exposed to Leeds United's attacks and were frequently beaten!
Van Bronckhorst and Belletti continued to provide support from the side, and Leeds United's offensive rhythm suddenly accelerated further on the already fast basis!
Deisler took the lead in receiving a pass from Belletti in the front and right area of the penalty area. After stopping the ball, Deisler fired a low and long shot.
The football flew straight to the far corner of the goal.
Casillas made a flying save and blocked the ball with one palm.
The flying football was subconsciously stopped by Ramos. Gareth Bale's counterattack made Ramos dare not control the ball anymore and directly cleared the ball to the wing.
Leeds United took a side kick from the left side of the frontcourt.
Kaka took the initiative and cooperated with Gareth Bale after hitting the wall and then headed towards the left rib area of the penalty area.
When Ramos pressed, Kaka sent the ball short to the center of the penalty area.
Ronaldo took the initiative, and Albiol and Diarra launched a flanking attack.
Ronaldo decisively passed the ball diagonally back.
But Modric reached the top of the penalty area and kicked the ball.
Casillas continues to save.
boom!
The sound of the football hitting the crossbar made his head buzz.
The football that flew outside the penalty area after rebounding in the penalty area was controlled by Deisler.
Deisler dribbled forward and was pressed by Alonso. He passed the ball across and then moved forward.
Modric gave him support, and Deisler broke into the right rib area of the penalty area and fired furiously!
Casillas made his third save in a short period of time!
This time he was in a hurry. If he was well prepared, he could hold the ball.
But now he makes a save!
The football that bounced towards the left rib of the penalty area was stabbed into the goal in the next second!
Ramos looked up to the sky and sighed, regretting it beyond measure.
One second he was still watching Kaka, but Kaka retreated.
But it was Gareth Bale who took the supplementary shot!
Gareth Bale himself was full of surprises. He didn't expect a God-given opportunity to score a goal in front of him.
He got it!
"Gareth Bale! This Welsh boy unexpectedly became the protagonist of this battle between the giants with his pass-and-shoot performance!"
"I believe that after tonight, Gareth Bale's name will be known to more fans!"
"I have to say that the onslaught of pressure after Leeds United's attack accelerated was terrifying!"
"Real Madrid are two goals behind at Elland Road and their promotion situation is worrying!"
Gareth Bale rushed to the sidelines to celebrate in excitement. Although the way of scoring was ordinary, the meaning of the goal was extraordinary.
He scored the goal of Real Madrid!
Perhaps this is something he has never dared to think about since his career debut.
But the man who said three years ago that he would transform him into a forward allowed him to play against Real Madrid today and score a goal!
This is simply the fantasy of becoming famous with one goal turned into reality!
Shen Hao also stood up and applauded Gareth Bale's goal.
It was obvious that he was genuinely happy.
Leeds United fans also cheered heartily for Gareth Bale.
Although neither Gareth Bale nor Royce can be a perfect replacement for Ronaldinho.
But at least Leeds United are not stretched in terms of personnel after losing a golden ball player in the winter transfer window.
There is hope for a successor.
Meanwhile in Madrid.
Florentino chose to watch the game in the office.
Only half of the first half of the game was played, and Real Madrid was already two goals behind.
This performance made Florentino look gloomy.
His assistant, Real Madrid general manager Valdano, consoled him: "Pellegrini needs to be given more time. If you want to complete a revival in the European arena, you can't just buy a few players and do it in a short time. "
Florentino glanced at him sharply.
"When Figo and Zidane came to Real Madrid, they could do it!"
Valdano remained silent, lamenting in his heart.
Of course, Florentino can't forget the glory of the time when he first built the Galactico.
But today is different from the past.
Times have changed.
Elland Road Stadium.
Pellegrini was at a loss.
The Real Madrid players on the field also showed signs of irritability under pressure.
As the game continues, Leeds United's advantage will not change.
This forced Real Madrid to resort to frequent fouls in defense.
Leeds United took the lead in reaching full status, and at the same time, they were also full of confidence due to their two-goal lead.
The performance of some players is unexpected and continues to strengthen!
When Gareth Bale forced Arbeloa with two consecutive dribbles from the left, he was directly knocked to the ground by Ramos, who was intercepted and rushed out of the penalty area.
Ramos turned yellow because of this.
Although Gareth Bale was rolling on the ground in pain, he was extremely excited inside.
Being able to force Real Madrid's defense to become so embarrassed is naturally an affirmation of his personal ability.
If he wasn't such a big threat, his opponents wouldn't risk taking cards on him.
Gareth Bale in the frontcourt, and Kanter in the midfield and backfield are constantly shining!
Granero was completely dazed by Kante's crazy steal and could hardly control the ball!
Kante, who looks crazy, can even help defend the wing, whether it is Higuain or Ronaldo, anyway, this little black egg is like a black whirlwind, disrupting the opponent's offense wherever it passes.
Although it can only firmly defend Granero, it can bring great support to the defensive sweep of other local areas.
Whether it's forcing the opponent to dribble and speed up, or actively seeking cooperation, it will be easier for the teammates behind Kanter to defend.
Ronaldo was kicking himself to the point of crying.
Benzema still needs to grow, and Higuain is not on the right track with him.
Granero is dead!
Alonso is doing dispatching work in the backcourt again.
Only Marcelo's assists and support could help him, but after Deisler's counterattack almost led to another victory, Marcelo obediently tightened the fence in the backcourt.
Ronaldo will be trapped in a fight if he dribbles and breaks through by himself. When cooperating with his teammates, it is impossible to pass or cut more than three passes without making a mistake or being intercepted.
Occasionally shooting from a distance is more like venting anger.
Let Neuer easily brush up his save data.
Most people can see it clearly too.
Ronaldo has no problem with most options on the ball.
But he understood that kicking the ball by himself was not enough!
In team sports, not to mention that only when all members perform at their best can the ball be played beautifully, wonderfully and efficiently.
But the faults in Real Madrid's offensive system are too serious.
The midfield relied almost exclusively on Alonso, who was a deep-lying organization, and the full-backs were suppressed and did not dare to move.
The frontline trident cannot be said to be in disarray, but it can also be seen that there is no response from the left and right sides.
The depth and height of Leeds United's technical and tactical strength in pressing, cutting, blocking, and encircling each other are far beyond what Real Madrid can compare with.
Pellegrini stood on the sidelines already looking a little helpless.
Just before the end of the half, Ronaldo countered an offside move, and Benzema was pressed in the middle and passed the ball back.
As long as Granero can send an overhead pass at this time, Ronaldo will have the opportunity to counter offside and successfully form a single shot.
As a result, after Granero saw Kanter, he subconsciously spiked the ball and changed its direction. His feet were obviously soft, and Kanter directly stretched his legs to destroy the ball!
Granero turned around and formed a physical confrontation with Kanter, but he, who was taller than Kanter, fell to the ground.
Ronaldo braked suddenly while running and jumped helplessly, with despair written on his face!
Modric took possession of the ball and sent a diagonal pass to the ground.
Deisler moved to the right side of the frontcourt to successfully receive the ball. He quickly advanced the ball and turned into an inward track and immediately sent a short diagonal pass.
Alonso turned back to defend and saw Ronaldo taking the initiative to kick the ball. The ball rolled back to the left front of the top arc of the penalty area.
Diarra tried to destroy the ball, but Kaká took the ball away first and completed the breakthrough against Diarra.
Kaká, who entered the penalty area with the ball, faced Ramos and crossed him back and forth during Ronaldo's diagonal movement. Ronaldo formed a cover and containment for him, which not only distracted Ramos' defensive attention, but also allowed Albi to Orr's defensive focus moved to the center.
Kaka dribbled the ball for a while, then speeded up and changed the direction of the ball. He swung out of front of Albiol at an angle and drew an arrow. When Albiol turned around and raised his leg to block, the football was already like a ball. The stream of light flew past my eyes!
He looked back, and what caught his eye was Casillas making a heroic save in mid-air, but unfortunately... the ball had already flown into the upper right corner of the goal!
The cheers at Elland Road were deafening!
Leeds United fans chanted Kaka's name.
Kaka showed a charming smile and ran towards the sideline with his hands pointing in the sky.
Real Madrid fans are heartbroken.
Meanwhile in Madrid.
boom!
Florentino picked up the landline phone on the table in the office and threw it to the floor!
Valdano remained silent, not daring to say a word.
Florentino's eyes were wide open as he stared at the Leeds United players celebrating on the TV.
His chest heaved and he gritted his teeth.
"What a shame! It's a shame to be defeated in the Champions League by this country bumpkin team for four consecutive years!"
