    "Southampton also fought hard in this game!" In the visiting team's coaching bench at the Glory Stadium, Real Madrid assistant coach David Bettoni said with a wry smile.  He and Zidane were close friends when they were young. As early as when Zidane was just starting out and playing for Cannes, they were very good friends and comrades on the court.  This kind of friendship that we met at a young age is undoubtedly more precious.  So, later on, even though Bettoni's career was very mediocre, Zidane rose to fame and became the world's top superstar, but the friendship between the two of them has always remained very close.  When Zidane accepted Florentino's invitation to return to Real Madrid, he wanted to find an assistant for himself. The first person that came to mind was David Bettoni, and even though the latter did not have a coaching certificate at all, he still  Or take him to the Bernabeu.  From the youth team to the first team, Bettoni has always been Zidane¡¯s most trusted right-hand man.  This is why, although he does not have the title of assistant coach at Real Madrid, he is fulfilling the role of assistant coach.  Zidane listened to his friend's words and nodded slightly, "Ancelotti is very familiar with us." This is indeed a headache.  As the former coach of Real Madrid, the lineup of Real Madrid during Carlo Ancelotti¡¯s era did not change much compared to the current Real Madrid, except that Lewandowski replaced Benzema and one player left.  Cristiano Ronaldo, a big supporter of Gareth Bale.  But overall, the changes in Real Madrid are not obvious.  This brings Zidane a very passive dilemma, that is, every move he makes seems to be figured out by the opponent.  He tried to ask for change, but where could he change?  Strictly speaking, the superstar lineup that Real Madrid has brought in over the past few years is a double-edged sword.  If you want to bring out the strengths of superstars such as Gareth Bale and Cristiano Ronaldo, the team must develop tactics that can take advantage of their strengths.  But for this kind of impact-oriented players, the tactical flexibility is too small. They need space to display their characteristics. This makes Real Madrid's entire tactics lack of change and too monotonous.  And when the team plays from front to back around a few superstars in the frontcourt, it severely limits the players' thoughts on the field. The reason is very simple. Passing the ball to the superstars in the frontcourt is enough.  It's done.     What?  Free play?  Nimi, aren¡¯t you stealing the show from the frontcourt superstars?  Why are there many supporting actors who clearly performed brilliantly, but ultimately failed to win the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor?  Just because you stole the show!  The same is true in a team. The supporting role must be able to set off the protagonist, be willing to be a green leaf, and not steal the show.  To put it simply, you are more confident if you hit the ball yourself, but you have to pass it to me.  Why?  Because you are a supporting role!  With such a division of labor, Real Madrid players will definitely be restricted in their ideas of playing football and will not be able to express themselves freely.  As a professional player, with a salary from Real Madrid, the player's idea is very simple. Since your team has decided to do this, then I will do my duty. I will play how you arrange it.  This has resulted in Real Madrid players lacking creativity in playing football and the team lacking vitality.  Looking back at Southampton, the team does not have to rely on any one player. The front three are all superstars, but they also have to invest in counterattacks and defense. Di Maria and Pogba in the midfield, and even Tony  Cross can also actively participate in the offense and bring out his own characteristics and advantages.  Southampton¡¯s entire team has three lines, keeping it compact and coordinated, but at the same time there is no clear division of labor and cooperation. Whoever seizes the opportunity will go forward. Such a team and such tactics are so dynamic.  ??And Ancelotti is too familiar with Real Madrid.  The Italians¡¯ tactics in this game were very clear. They pressed out from the start and pressed from a high position. Moreover, they pressed and pressed in a very targeted and purposeful manner.  That¡¯s pinching Modric!  It should be said that as a midfield star imported by Real Madrid with a lot of money, Modric is the only player in Real Madrid's midfield who has creativity and the ability to sort out the midfield.  Ancelotti focused on pinching Modric, and his intention was obvious.  I mess up your midfield. No matter how many stars you have in the frontcourt, they are just decorations.  Zidane naturally watches it tooBecause of this, he frowned.  ¡°Do you want to make some adjustments and bring James Rodriguez back?¡± Bettoni asked.  James Rodriguez can play on the wing or in the midfield. If he retreats, he can share Modric's defensive pressure to a certain extent and control the midfielder.  "Ancelotti is eager for us to do this." Zidane also has his own worries.  "Why?" Bertoni didn't understand.  Zidane smiled coldly, "With James Rodriguez back, our advancement route from the midfield to the frontcourt is interrupted. We can only make long passes to find Lewandowski and Gareth Bale."  "When he said this, Bertoni understood immediately.  With James Rodriguez back, Ancelotti will definitely have a way to restrain himself.  It should even be said that he has already prepared a routine, and it is no problem to pinch Modric and James Rodriguez at the same time, forcing the Real Madrid midfielder to find it difficult to play the ball. Even if he can barely play the ball, how can he get to the frontcourt?  We can only rely on long passes.  But everyone knows that long passes and crosses from the side are not very efficient at all when faced with this rigorous defensive system.  "This old fox!" Bertoni snorted twice, but he was helpless.  He is a qualified supporting actor, but he does not have much in-depth understanding of football.  Therefore, even if you know what the problem is, you can't do anything but look at Zidane beside you.  The Real Madrid coach frowned and stared at the court. Southampton's players fought hard and fiercely, picking up the pace from the beginning. Real Madrid was simply unable to cope.  In this case, Southampton has an overwhelming advantage.  But Real Madrid is not completely without opportunities. The Saints' defense is very high. As long as they can pass the ball and create counterattack opportunities on the wing, with the abilities of Gareth Bale and Lewandowski,  Completely capable of creating threats.  Zidane knows very well that this is a gamble.  If the bet is right, Real Madrid scores a goal and the game becomes easy to play.  If the bet is lost, if the Saints score the first goal, Real Madrid's game may be over.  With Real Madrid always being impatient and easily agitated, once the away goal is conceded first, the game, or even both rounds, may be over.  But sometimes, the head coach just needs to have such a gambling streak!  Zidane gritted his teeth, he bet on this card!  ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­ ¡°He will definitely bet!¡± Ancelotti was sitting in the home team¡¯s coaching bench, looking at Zidane in the visiting team¡¯s coaching bench with a smile, and said with a smile.  His tone was so firm that it was hard not to believe him.  "Why?" Xiao An asked with concern from the side.  He doesn¡¯t understand. He¡¯s obviously been beaten by Southampton. The situation is so dangerous, but Zidane still won¡¯t retreat?  "I know him, I know his character. If you take a gamble at this time, you may not have a chance, but if you don't take this gamble, then he may not even have a chance." Ancelotti said this, hehe smiled, very  It smells like the slam dunk coach Anzai.  "There is too much pressure on Zidane, but Real Madrid's overall strength has not met the expectations of the management and fans, so it is very difficult for him. If he wants to prove himself urgently, he has to produce some results. Defeating Southampton is undoubtedly  A battle can establish his position, so he will definitely bet!" After hearing this, Xiao An couldn't help but suddenly realized.  "Let me tell you, if the outcome of a football match is based on overall strength, then targeted tactics are based on people's hearts. As long as you capture the opponent's mind, you will be invincible!" Ancelo  When Di said this, a cold look flashed in his eyes.  This is really rare for Fatty An, who has always been gentle.  ¡°Obviously, he wants to prove himself, and he wants to prove himself with Real Madrid.  ¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­ As the game just started, Southampton pressed hard, and Real Madrid was very passive on the scene.  But at this juncture, as the head coach, Zidane made no adjustments or changes. Even when he walked to the sidelines, he just called on the players to press out more and pass the ball forward.  Southampton¡¯s high press gave Real Madrid a crushing advantage. The Galacticos had to enter a defensive state from the beginning because they found that the opponent¡¯s press and pressureNot just ruthless, but extremely ruthless.  The Saints¡¯ ruthlessness is reflected in their investment and pertinence.  That is the key point to pinch Modric.  As soon as the Croatian gets the ball, there must be Southampton players around him. As long as he hesitates a little, even if the ball is stopped a little too much, or a teammate who is waiting to receive the ball is immediately close to him or even steals the ball.  This has caused huge trouble for Modric.  He tried to get rid of it, but as soon as the ball was released slowly, the surrounding Southampton players immediately formed a double-team, making it difficult for him to have any direction or chance to release the ball.  Through such a very high-intensity press and pressure, Real Madrid's entire offense was in trouble.  Once all players receive the ball, their priority is no longer how to pass the ball forward, but how to ensure that the ball is not lost.  As for passing the ball, it still relies more on long passes.  But how much threat can such a blind long pass create?  The answer is, almost zero!  In turn, when Southampton was attacking with the ball, Di Maria and Pogba actively pressed forward and pulled them to the wings, creating a numerical advantage for the two wings. It also provided opportunities for Messi and Arsenal to attack.  Zale and Suarez created opportunities to face the Real Madrid central defender directly.  To put it simply, Di Maria and Pogba are like two baits, luring Casemiro and Modric out of the center, and then allowing teammates such as Messi, Hazard and Suarez to move to the center to create threats.  Judging from the course of the game, Southampton¡¯s opening tactics were very effective.  Not only did they speed up the pace of the game from the beginning, making Real Madrid exhausted, but the players' investment in the game was also very high, very active, strong in tactical execution, and cooperative and tacit, making Southampton not only occupy an overwhelming position.  Advantages, but also frequently create threats.  Almost from the beginning of the game, Real Madrid's entire defense was under tremendous offensive pressure, especially the two central defenders, Ramos and Pepe, who were exhausted.  But even so, Real Madrid's penalty area is still full of dangers, and there is a turmoil in front of the goal.  But head coach Zidane still has not made adjustments.  ?Perhaps he is still betting, or perhaps he feels that it is a bit unreasonable to adjust tactics after only a few minutes of the game.  But no matter what, Real Madrid finally showed its flaws!  Mobile phone users please visit http://m.piaotia.net
