    "This is Southampton's Glory Stadium. Welcome to watch the final of the 2015-2016 UEFA Champions League that we are broadcasting live for everyone." "The two sides facing each other are the home teams from the Premier League, Saints Southampton.  "Before the game, the organizers held a brief opening ceremony at the Glory Stadium."  It can be seen that the much-anticipated Saint-Bride Cup has been placed at the exit of the players' tunnel, and the players from both teams are also lined up in the tunnel, ready to play at any time." "There are also celebrities gathering in the stands of the Glory Stadium.  , FIFA President Infantino, UEFA President Platini, as well as representatives from the English Football Association, the Premier League and the Spanish Football Federation, they are all sitting in the presidential stand. "What is also eye-catching is that.  There are representatives of the British royal family, Prince William and Princess Kate, British Prime Minister Cameron, Spanish King Felipe, Spanish Prime Minister Rajoy" "We can see that the players of the two teams have walked out under the leadership of the referee.  Player tunnel. "We have got the starting lineups of the two teams." "Southampton's starting lineup is goalkeeper Neuer, defense line, David Alaba, Nastasic, Varane and.  Danilo, the three players in the midfield are Di Maria, Toni Kroos and Pogba, and the front trident is Hazard, Suarez and Messi. "This game of the Saints can be said to be a success.  Stars gathered, all the main players were on the field, and more importantly, Southampton won the Premier League championship early and won the FA Cup a few days ago, and they are in excellent form." "Atletico Madrid is in great shape.  The starting lineup for a game is also the main lineup. The goalkeeper is Courtois, the defense is Jose Gaya, Jimenez, Otamendi and Montoya, and the midfielder is Illarramen.  Di, the front four midfielders are Isco, Krychowiak, Koke and William, and the lone forward is Griezmann. ""This is also Atletico Madrid's strongest lineup this season, but Simeone's.  The team's playing style is changeable this season. Although it looks like 4-1-4-1 from the formation diagram, in fact, they will change to 4-2-3-1 or even 4-4-2 at any time according to the situation on the field.  "It's hard to predict." "However, judging from the starting lineup in this game, Atletico Madrid should still decide to focus on defense at the Glory Stadium." "After all, this is Southampton's home court, and the Saints have the most offensive power in Europe.  As a strong team, Atletico Madrid is still at a disadvantage. Taking a defensive position and then planning a counterattack is a good choice. " When everyone got the starting lineups of both sides, their first reaction was,  Atletico Madrid wants to defend and counterattack.  ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????:  Secondly, Atletico Madrid's defense is quite good. It can even be said that Simeone's team itself is famous for its defense. The style of play in the first two years was also relatively rough, and they played defensive counterattacks, which played to their strengths.  And from the fact that Simeone has arranged Griezmann's lone forward, it is not difficult to see that he really wants to defend against counterattacks.  But what surprised everyone was that when the referee blew the whistle to start the game and the fans in the audience let out deafening cheers, kicking off the Champions League final, Atletico Madrid actually chose to press  .  "Onetwothree" "Oh my God, Atletico Madrid adopted a forward pressing tactic from the beginning. Six players went to the front to press and press. They invested a considerable amount of troops. Look,  It doesn¡¯t sound conservative at all!¡± Judging from the game footage, Southampton passed the ball all the way back, but Atletico Madrid pressed all the way.  When Nastasic got the ball at the front of the penalty area, Griezmann had even pressed into this area, and Atletico Madrid's entire midfield also followed.  Nastasic had no choice but to pass the ball to goalkeeper Neuer.  After the German goalkeeper got the ball, he took it outside the penalty area and passed it to Varane who was pulled to the right.  But at this time, Atletico Madrid's pressing formation had formed, forcing Varane to pass back again.  In this kind of pass from the backcourt, after Atletico Madrid's overall formation came up, it was difficult for Southampton to get the ball, and they had to try to pass diagonally to find Hazard on the left side of the frontcourt.  It is said to be the frontcourt, but in fact, Hazard has retreated to the front of the thirty-meter area in his own half.  Montoya seems to have been prepared?Suddenly grabbed the ball and headed the ball passed to Hazard to the right. William retreated to catch the ball and Atletico Madrid got the ball.  At this time, the game had just started for less than a minute!  ¡­¡­¡­¡­ ¡­¡­¡­¡­ After seeing the team successfully snatch the ball away from Southampton in less than a minute, Simeone, who was standing on the sidelines, couldn¡¯t help but smile slightly.  meaning.  He is still very satisfied with the performance of Atletico Madrid players on the court.  ??At least, in terms of tactical execution, the players did a good job and grabbed the ball in one breath.  But this is only the first step in his opening tactics.  Simeone has high hopes for this game. He wants to avert the humiliation of losing to Southampton in the Champions League final two years ago. He wants to lead Atletico Madrid to win the Champions League and create a triple crown.  Therefore, he was quite well prepared for this battle. Even at the beginning of the game, he had clearly laid out how the team was going to play and how to deal with Southampton.  This group of players at Atletico Madrid is definitely not as good as Southampton in terms of personal abilities, but in terms of tactical execution, Simeone has absolute confidence.  On the court, after Atletico Madrid players grabbed the ball, they still did not retreat. Instead, they continued to press in Southampton's half, trapping the Saints in the half, which surprised everyone.  It doesn¡¯t make sense, doesn¡¯t it?  You know, with Southampton's offensive capabilities, as long as they seize one opportunity, Atletico Madrid will be finished.  But in Simeone¡¯s view, this is not a problem.  The reason is simple. As long as the team's frontcourt pressure can be effective, the players' execution is in place, and Southampton's passing and receiving lines are cut off, the Saints' offensive can be contained.  In Southampton¡¯s entire tactics, the two full-backs play a very important role. By actively pressing forward, they help the three midfielders to form a five-man passing and controlling square, thereby creating an advantage on the field.  However, Atletico Madrid has now invested six players in the frontcourt. Through a uniform pressing and pressing formation, and through tacit running, it can form a local numerical advantage, thereby suppressing Southampton's passing and control.  This is why Atletico Madrid was able to snatch the ball back from Southampton in less than a minute of the opening game.  Simone stood on the sidelines, his eyes slightly squinted, staring at the situation on the court, feeling quite proud.  It has been two years. In order to restrain Southampton, he has been preparing for two years!  Although the Saints' head coach has changed from Bielsa to Ancelotti, although the Saints have also made progress and improved their tactics in the past two years, they have never changed from their roots.  Although Ancelotti¡¯s team is more balanced, more reasonable, and more controlled, in the final analysis, the core things are still inherited from the Bielsa era.  This is not surprising, because in just one year, how could Ancelotti overturn the rigorous tactical system that Bielsa spent five years building?  Grabbing the ball and dampening the Saints' spirit is the first step.  By pressing and pressing in the frontcourt, cutting off the Saints' passing lines and containing the Saints' offense, this is the second step.  Then the third step is easy.  Because your two full-backs actively participate in the midfield attack, it is logical that your full-backs will naturally leave a gap behind them.  As long as you give me a chance to steal the ball in the frontcourt and pass the ball, I will hit you behind the two full-backs!  But tactics are tactics, they only exist on paper, but to be reflected on the football field, it takes time and a bit of luck.  There is a saying that goes well: Wealth can be found in danger, but if you are reluctant to give up your children, you will not be able to trap the wolf.  Simeone is confident that he has rehearsed this set of tactics many times. As soon as the opportunity arises, the players will surely seize it!  With Atl¨¦tico de Madrid¡¯s heavy investment and the players running and pressing without hesitation, Southampton¡¯s midfield and backcourt play was curbed, and Messi and Hazard in the frontcourt had to actively retreat to the midfield.  But Atletico Madrid was well prepared. As soon as Messi and Hazard retreated, the two full-backs Jose Gaya and Montoya also pressed forward, following these two players at every step.  In addition, Atl¨¦tico Madrid knows very well that in terms of skills, they cannot match the Saints, so they actively use fouls when defending, but do not use aggressive tactics, which makes it difficult for the ball at the feet of the Saints to move smoothly.  &nbspThe ball changed hands back and forth between the Saints and Atletico Madrid, and no one was able to create a chance.  Until the fourth minute, Atletico Madrid seized an opportunity.  After Krychowiak stole the ball, he quickly handed it to Isco.  After Isco dribbled the ball past the defensive player, he passed a diagonal pass to the right corner of the penalty area.  Although David Alaba had already returned to defense in time when William received the ball, William passed the ball to Koke, and Koke directly hit a very high-quality long shot from the front of the penalty area.  Neuer flew over and lifted the ball over the crossbar. Only then did he keep the goal!  But Atletico Madrid¡¯s shot and attack made people break out in a cold sweat.  With the stimulation of this wave of attacks, Simeone and his sheet army were like sharks smelling the smell of blood. Their eyes became red and they began to frequently launch counterattacks towards Southampton.  The Saints' midfield and backfield have been under considerable pressure, but they have never been able to find an effective way to move the ball to the frontcourt.  It can only be said that Atletico Madrid's starting tactics are too targeted, and the players' execution ability is too high.  There is a saying that goes well, a wise man will make a mistake every time he thinks.  The Saints were restrained by Atletico Madrid, allowing the game to unfold within their own half. Atletico Madrid's sharp counterattack was always a serious concern, and problems would arise sooner or later.  And the problem lies in the eleventh minute.  Southampton wanted to pass the ball to Hazard, who was retreating to cover, but Montoya successfully intercepted the ball and quickly passed the ball to Illarramendi.  As soon as the Spanish midfielder got the ball, without any hesitation, he directly made a long pass and passed the ball in the direction of the right corner flagpole.  After Montoya stole the ball, William immediately chose to rush forward. As soon as Illarramendi's ball came out, he threw away the defensive player and went straight behind him.  The distance between the back line and the bottom line is very short, but Illarramendi's pass came to William just in time, and the Brazilian player stopped the ball directly.  Nastasic returned to the right side of the penalty area in time, and in the penalty area, Varane followed Griezmann to the front point.  But as soon as William received the ball and faced Nastasic, he made a simple and practical emergency stop and accelerated. After getting rid of Nastasic by one position, he suddenly made a pass.  But this cross ball did not go to Griezmann in front of the goal, but fell to the penalty spot.  Immediately afterwards, Isco rushed up from behind and shot a volley without waiting for the ball to hit the ground.  Neuer stood on the right side and was helpless against the powerful shot aimed at the lower left corner of the goal.  The ball is scored!  Mobile phone users please visit http://m.piaotia.net
