Chapter 231 Boiling Frogs in Warm Water

After scoring the goal, Griezmann was very happy and ran over to hug Gao Zheng.

Although he did not score as many goals as he did in Real Sociedad last season after moving to Atletico Madrid, so that some media complained about him, thinking that his transfer to Atletico Madrid might not be a good choice, and he can only live in Under Gao Zheng's shadow.

But Griezmann himself had no such thoughts.

He even felt that it was his honor to be able to fight side by side with Gao Zheng.

Although he has only joined the team for one season, he has already admired Gao Zheng's five-body cast.

It's like every player who joins Barcelona is proud to be able to play with Messi, and even some players transfer to Barcelona because they can get close to Messi.

Who said that stars can't follow stars?

Of course, Griezmann didn't have this idea before joining Atletico Madrid. After he came to Atletico Madrid, he gradually realized Gao Zheng's strength through training and competitions with Gao Zheng, and he fell at his feet. .

Being able to partner with Gao Zheng and play for Gao Zheng, even if the number of goals is much less than when he was at Real Sociedad, it is nothing to be ashamed of.

After all, he was helping someone like Gao Zheng.

Because of his admiration for Gao Zheng, Griezmann even rented his house in the same neighborhood as Gao Zheng.

Holding Gao Zheng now, he smiled happily - this was his first goal in the league this season!

He believed that with Gao Zheng's ability, even if he shot the ball directly, the chances of scoring a goal were very high. But Gao Zheng selflessly gave him the chance to score.

Atletico Madrid's morale recovered after Griezmann equalized, but there was not much time left for them to counterattack in the first half. It didn't take long for the first half to end, and the score was still 1:1.

Although a goal was conceded, the Catalan commentator was not worried about the outcome of the game.

In his opinion, this is Atletico Madrid's home court, and it is almost impossible for Barcelona not to concede a goal here, especially Atletico Madrid and Gao Zheng. Since the goal must be conceded, it is obviously better to concede the goal before the end of the first half than at the beginning of the second half.

Because the morale and state of Atlético Madrid will be interrupted by the next fifteen minutes of intermission.

If Atletico Madrid scored at the start of the second half, Barcelona would be in danger.

At that time, facing Atletico Madrid's counterattack, Barcelona does not know whether it can withstand it in the next game.

Since Diego Simeone coached Atletico Madrid, this team has become particularly bloody. Once it becomes crazy, it is simply "God blocks and kills God, Buddha blocks and kills Buddha". So it is very important not to let them fight their momentum.

The 15-minute intermission now solves this problem very well.

What Atletico Madrid coach Simeone had to do at halftime was to continue the feeling of the players. For this reason, he continued to cheer the players up, telling them that although they conceded a goal in the first half, the whole team performed well. , As long as they continue to play like this, it is not difficult to score again.

"In the end, you have to remember that this is us at our home court! If we are confident of winning at our home court, then we don't deserve to win!"

After the start of the second half, Atletico Madrid continued the momentum after scoring in the first half, while Barcelona avoided the edge and chose to play steadily, using superb ball control skills and teamwork to slow down Atletico Madrid's rhythm. Enrique's instructions to the Barcelona players.

He guessed what Diego Simeone was going to do, and now that Atlético had equalized and morale was on the rise, he was sure to fan the flames and keep the momentum going in the second half.

And now that you know what the other party will do and how you should respond, it will naturally be very clear.

Barcelona are the best at controlling the ball.

Relying on possession of the ball kills Atletico Madrid's fighting spirit. When Atletico Madrid's morale drops and the rhythm slows down, Barcelona suddenly accelerates and relies on Messi to hit a fatal blow to kill Atletico Madrid.

It's like hypnosis. The hypnotized subject is completely under the control of the hypnotist and has no resistance.

I have to say that from the actual game point of view, Barcelona's style of play is indeed quite effective.

The second half of the game had just started, and Atletico Madrid could still use that tone to rush and fight for a while, but when the football fell into the control of the Barcelona players, the game turned into a "ring game". The Barcelona players passed the football back and forth. Go, Atletico Madrid can only run after the football, but it is difficult to grab it.

Especially in Barcelona's backcourt, Griezmann tried very hard to press down on Barcelona's players, but it was useless.

Like Gao Zheng, he didn't waste his energy at all. He knew what the opponent wanted to do. What he did was to waste the physical energy of the Atletico Madrid players, and then make the Atletico Madrid players become impatient. When it is admitted, that is the opportunity for Barcelona to launch a counterattack.

So when Griezmann went up to press, Gao Zheng did not help, but retreated, making Griezmann the front man, and he was more like a shadow striker.

Griezmann is not stupid. After chasing him a few times, he found that he couldn't catch up, and he was no longer the "monkey" being played.

Simeone did not wave his hands to let the players press up and continue to press, but pressed his hands down and made a gesture to keep the players calm.

Of course he knows that this will make the game fall into the rhythm that Barcelona likes and is good at, but compared with this, if he is hit behind by Barcelona and loses the ball because of the pressure, that is what makes Simeone even more unwilling to accept...

Barcelona was not surprised to see that Atletico Madrid did not continue to press up and press down. The opponent's reaction was within their expectations. They don't worry that they won't have more chances after Atletico Madrid shrinks their defense. They will always encounter opponents who can't defend, so the Barcelona players are used to it. They believe that if they continue to deal with it patiently, they will definitely find Atletico Madrid. loophole.

After all, this is Atletico Madrid's home court. Barcelona may be able to accept a draw, but Atletico Madrid will never accept it. At that time, they will definitely press the whole team and rush to attack, so that there will be space behind them again.

This is like boiling a frog in warm water. At the beginning, the frog will not find the problem. When the frog finds the problem, it is too late, and it will no longer be able to jump out.

Barcelona's slow pace is like this. Some people call their football drowsy, but they don't know that many opponents are killed in this drowsiness.

Didn't you see Gao Zheng not fighting in the frontcourt? He took the lead in not pressing, and Griezmann and the others followed suit.

In fact, for Barcelona, ​​pressing or not does not affect their results, because the results are the same. After pressing, there will be free time to use. If you don't press, it will slowly grind you to death.
