Chapter 430 The Last Counterattack

In fact, when Simeone was about to tell the players on the field about his adjustments, the Atletico Madrid players on the field made their own choices-they began to recycle and were preparing for the next overtime.

This is a natural choice. After all, the game has been played to this point, and there is still no goal. Instead, the opponent seized their opportunity to press the attack and almost scored a goal.

Any normal player will make moves to avoid disadvantages and avoid losing the ball at the last moment.

This is also a mature performance of the team.

Watching Atletico Madrid recover, Real Madrid, who had just threatened their goal with Cristiano Ronaldo, wanted to attack before the end of the game.

What if it can beat Atletico Madrid?

The reason why the Real Madrid players have such an idea cannot be said that they are immature. They are actually very clear that their physical fitness has problems. If they play overtime, they probably will not take advantage of it.

At that time, it might collapse faster...

It was like a repeat of the final two years ago, only this time Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid had to swap places.

So Real Madrid mustered their last strength and launched an attack on Atletico Madrid's goal.

This is not a decision made by Zidane, it is also a spontaneous decision of the players on the field. But Zidane saw it, but did not stop them.

Because he is very aware of the team's physical condition, playing overtime is not good for Real Madrid. If the battle can be ended within 90 minutes, that is of course the best.

※※※

Real Madrid's offensive is up, and the Real Madrid fans in the stands seem to be resurrected. They cheer for their team loudly.

After all, they also hope that the game can end within 90 minutes, because everyone can see that Real Madrid's physical fitness has declined rapidly.

Even a player known for his physical fitness like Cristiano Ronaldo would put his hands on his knees during the breaks, leaning over and gasping for air.

Of course they hope that the team can beat Atletico Madrid in 90 minutes, so as to avoid the bad luck of collapsing in extra time.

Real Madrid has been pressed and beaten by Atletico Madrid before, which can be regarded as accumulating some physical strength, but now they have released all their physical strength, which has indeed created a lot of pressure on Atletico Madrid.

Everyone at Atletico Madrid retreated to their own half.

Upon seeing this, Simeone decided not to remind the players, obviously they are already aware of this.

He just stood on the sidelines, showing support for the team, to show that he was with them.

※※※

Facing Real Madrid's last wave of crazy offensive, Atletico Madrid fans thought it was better to play overtime. At least entering overtime, my team still has a physical advantage. If the opponent kills the game before the end of the game, then I really have to relive the pain and despair of two years ago...

So seeing Atletico Madrid's recovery of defense, Atletico Madrid fans didn't say anything.

As long as they can beat their rivals in the same city in the Champions League final, they don't care what method it is, and they don't care whether it is in 90 minutes or 120 minutes.

In the 88th minute, the attack launched by Real Madrid hit the goal of Atletico Madrid,

Bell made a cross from the wing, and Cristiano Ronaldo, who had switched to the center to play the center forward, leaped high and shook his head to attack the goal!

"Ronaldo——!!"

He grabbed the header in front of Godin, and then a lion shook his head and headed the football towards the goal!

Oblak made a wonderful save and blocked the football with a single palm!

"Oblak! He made a key save again! Beautiful!" He Ping cheered for Atletico Madrid's goalkeeper. What he saved was not only Atletico Madrid's goal, but also Atletico Madrid's hope of winning the Champions League!

But Atletico Madrid's crisis has not yet been touched.

Oblak's save was actually quite reluctant, and Cristiano Ronaldo's header was so powerful that it was not easy for him to block it. He couldn't lift the football out of the crossbar or hit it farther. go.

So the football blocked by him fell into Atletico Madrid's penalty area, causing chaos!

In the chaos, Savage kicked the football out first.

But his clearance was not far away, the ball neither flew into Real Madrid's half, nor flew out of the touchline.

The football fell to Modric's feet.

Modric tries to find Marcelo in a split.

But his passing intention was seen through by Saul.

The moment he passed the ball, Saul suddenly advanced and killed the passing route.

At the same time, Gao Zheng, who was at the front, saw this scene, turned around and ran forward without saying a word.

Ramos next to him froze for a moment, but immediately chased after him.

When catching up, he was still rejoicing that he was not the last line of defense, and there was Pepe behind him.

This is a master of one-on-one defense.

Even if Atlético de Madrid wanted to fight back, they would be chasing after him and Pepe would intercept him. The two of them defended against Gao Zheng alone, and I believe it would be enough to keep him.

※※※

Gao Zheng's sudden advance, except for Ramos and Pepe, basically no one noticed.

Everyone's focus is on Atletico Madrid's penalty area.

Modric plays the ball wide, trying to pass it to Marcelo.

But his ball was intercepted by Saul halfway.

Marcelo and Modric rushed to Saul, trying to break his ball, and at the same time prevent Atletico Madrid from counterattacking.

Saul actually looked up to observe the situation before stealing the ball, so he saw Gao Zheng turn around and go forward resolutely. He now knows what he should do.

Without any hesitation, he kicked the football forward with one big foot!

"Saul's long pass—Gao Zheng!!" He Ping shouted excitedly.

"This is Atletico Madrid's chance!" Xu Yang was also very excited.

All the fans in the stands, whether they were from Atletico Madrid or Real Madrid, stood up from their seats. This was a chance for Atletico Madrid to counterattack after defending for a few minutes. The game time is so sensitive. If Gao Zheng can score a goal , it could very well kill the game.

But if you can't make it, the game may be dragged into overtime...

So for Atletico Madrid, this counterattack is not very important, the most important thing is not to lose the ball. Therefore, when Gao Zheng sprinted forward, no other Atletico Madrid players even followed him to meet him and help him.

Maybe he couldn't run anymore, maybe he didn't want to destroy the integrity of the defense.

Anyway, now Gao Zheng is fighting alone.

※※※

Gao Zheng's speed wasn't too slow, but he rarely sprinted at full speed against him before, so it gave people the illusion that he was slow.

Now when Ramos was chasing after Gao Zheng, he realized that his previous impression of Gao Zheng's speed was all wrong-this bastard was not slow at all!

He had to grit his teeth so as not to lose track.

But what he didn't know was that Gao Zheng had to grit his teeth in order not to be caught up by Ramos.

Gao Zheng's speed is indeed not slow, but his physical fitness is not very good either. It is really difficult for him to sprint with all his strength until the last moment of the game.

He felt as if his lungs were burning.

But this tone cannot be relaxed in any case.

Because he doesn't want to play overtime...

If you can kill your opponent in regular time, why not?

In front of him, there was another stumbling block, blocking his only path.

There are chasing soldiers at the back, if he hesitates a little bit, or adjusts, he may fall into the defense of double-teaming.

It's no wonder that other Atletico Madrid players didn't come up to meet him. Such a counterattack is obviously unlikely to threaten Real Madrid's goal.

Gao Zheng's best result is to use his own skills to control the football, preventing the opponent from grabbing the ball in a short time and delaying it a little longer.

It would be even better if Real Madrid's players could be lured into fouls. If they lie on the ground for a few more minutes, then the free kick in the frontcourt might end the game.

As for whether this free kick can pose a threat, it is not something Atletico Madrid considers at all...
