The Strongest Demon Front

In the 6th minute of the game, Betis midfielder Fabian Ruiz succeeded in the confrontation with Danilo. He returned the header and gave the ball to Sejudo outside the penalty area. Saiyudo volleyed and shot a very amazing world wave.

Navas is beyond reach.

The football went straight into the corner.

1:0.

The home team Betis took the lead.

This is the first time Zidane has fallen behind in a game since he took office.

The opening goal gave the already imposing Betis another shot in the arm. The lead in the score led to the improvement of their game state and defensive hardness.

On the defensive end, Betis played very tough in this game, and their moves were generally too big, and the ball that could be shoveled would never be easily let go.

Real Madrid did not encounter much difficulty in the previous two games. Betis' gambling-like defense made Real Madrid's players a little uncomfortable in this game.

On the offensive end, neither James nor Danilo has taken on Bell's task. Ronaldo and Benzema were forced to complete the work of the three, coupled with Betis' tough defense, made Real Madrid's offensive organization in this game fragmented.

Chu Ge sat on the bench and carefully observed the game.

The accumulation of football game experience, the ability to read the game, sometimes does not need to play the game. Off the court, carefully analyzing the changes in the situation, and then confirming it on the court, this is also a learning process.

Chu Ge mainly observes the right side where James and Danilo are.

It is also the position where he may appear.

Danilo's performance in this game was a bit pitted.

His offensive investment is good, and he can go up almost every time the team attacks, but he has two problems after rushing up.

The first is that his crosses are unreliable.

Because Betis defensive players pay great attention to the protection of the middle of the penalty area, and Danilo's crossing point is basically random, resulting in his crossing efficiency is very low.

I didn't see him pass a reliable cross in the first half.

Of course,

Marcelo's cross in this game was also very unreliable, which covered up Danilo's cross flaws to some extent.

But Marcelo can come back after the assist, and Danilo is basically undefended after the assist. This problem is a bit big.

This is the second problem of Danilo's game.

Of course, this is not entirely Danilo's fault.

When Marcelo stepped forward to assist, Isco and Kroos would consciously approach him to protect his back.

When Danilo assisted, except for Modric who would pay more attention to defensive positions, James basically ran into the penalty area, using himself as a midfielder or forward. And once Danilo loses the ball, James will not speed up the chase like Isco. In this way, the team's defensive system will have omissions.

Almost all of Betis' threatening attacks in this game came from their left, which was Danilo's wing.

Under the impact of the Betis players, Danilo seemed a little overwhelmed and embarrassed. Even with the full-back on his side, Varane is also constantly fighting the fire, very busy.

The pressure on the right side was so high that Modric had to spend most of his energy on returning to defense.

His position is too far back, coupled with Kroos's habit of standing in the midfielder position, it has caused Real Madrid's midfielder to be almost in a state of disjoint.

Benzema and Ronaldo, two forwards, rarely get the ball in the frontcourt.

In order to improve this situation, Zidane asked both Ronaldo and Benzema to increase their retracement.

The advantage of this is that it increases the connection between the striker and the midfielder, but the disadvantage is that the retracement of the two forwards, coupled with the adduction of Isco and James, leads to the inability to open the court space, which is more beneficial in a sense. Betis defended in less space.

Some things are really clear to the outside world.

When Chu Ge jumped out of the game and looked at the game from a third-party perspective, the game situation he could analyze was very different from the situation when he was playing on the field.

Chu Ge could tell that James didn't play very well in this game.

James' characteristics are very different from Bale's.

He can't provide Bell's impact on the right side, and neither his speed nor explosiveness is James' strong point. When Ronaldo and Benzema are forced to retreat, James can't help the team open up the game space. It is not conducive to the team's offense, and it also makes him always surrounded by defenders.

Not to mention defense.

James is a player who doesn't like to participate in defense.

Every player has his own technical style and game characteristics. James is used to moving in the middle and needs his teammates to help him open up space, and his recent state is really not good. In other words, since Benitez took office, the following style of play has been a little bit outside of Real Madrid as a whole.

Chu Ge didn't know whose problem it was, but he knew that this was his opportunity.

The first half was over quickly.

The score is still 0:1.

Real Madrid are behind.

During the intermission, Zidane encouraged James, hoping that he could do better.

After the game resumed, Real Madrid did not make substitution adjustments.

However, Zidane fine-tuned the tactics.

He asked Marcelo to increase his assists, and at the same time asked Benzema to retreat moderately and Ronaldo to press forward to maintain the pressure on Betis.

This adjustment will help the game to a certain extent.

Compared with the first half, Real Madrid's offensive has improved slightly.

Ronaldo even hit the goal after getting rid of a defender in the penalty area.

However, it's a pity that his shot didn't hit the right spot, and with a push with his left foot, he kicked the football out of the baseline.

The score is still behind.

Betis continued their fierce defense in the first half, with a score of 1:0, giving them enough capital to give up offense and concentrate on defensive counterattacks.

Real Madrid's game is still difficult.

At the 60th minute, Zidane finally made the first adjustment.

He replaced Danilo with Carvajal.

Carvajal's playing helped the team stabilize the defense on the right, but on the offensive end, it is difficult for him alone to provide sufficient support like Marcelo.

On the offensive end, Real Madrid still can't open the situation.

The score is behind, the time is decreasing, and the offensive threat is not great, which is definitely what Real Madrid does not want to see.

If this game loses, the point gap between them and Barcelona and Atletico Madrid is likely to widen further. Moreover, the team's previous two-game winning streak will also encounter a lot of setbacks.

This will not only damage the morale of the team, but also damage the confidence of players and fans in coach Zidane.

The loss of a game will certainly not affect Zidane's coaching position.

However, winning can solve the problem, while losing will bury hidden dangers.

Zidane's new coach takes office. He needs one victory after another to establish his authority and boost the team's confidence.

Chu Ge looked at Zidane.

He feels that he can help the team change the situation at hand.
