Chapter 184 Torres' Provocation
From a macro point of view, Simeone's defensive system has an old-fashioned Italian chain-type reinforced concrete defensive DNA in it. The three lines are kept at a considerable distance, regional cooperation, and cooperative defense.
Simeone's team likes opponents to work on the wing most, so that they can use the sideline to achieve a small-scale area blockade.
Full-backs, central midfielders, defensive midfielders, central defenders, and full-backs must participate in every area of double-teaming.
This kind of defense suffocates and oppresses, which makes the ball holder very uncomfortable.
Simeone is more determined than Mourinho in terms of cutting and utilizing his own space.
Under Simeone's defensive system, countless challengers have suffered a lot. Even if they pass through the danger, they will lose their skin if they don't die.
Due to too much energy invested in defense, the establishment of an offensive system is a bit rough compared to this one.
Of course, this roughness is compared horizontally to the first-tier European clubs.
In terms of offense, no matter how the team changes, Simeone will have a center in front.
In the offense, the center is the team's bridgehead and battering ram. When the situation cannot be opened, the center will play a key role.
The existence of high-quality centers does not require too many complicated offensive tactics. As long as the ball is hit to the opponent's defensive third area, the center will always have a chance to score.
For example, the team's current center, Diego Costa, known as the "beauty of the prosperous age".
The height of 1 meters is not disadvantageous against the defender who is 88 meters taller. His ability to protect the ball is extremely strong. He can stably control the passing of his teammates in the backcourt and wait for the support of his teammates in the back row. Of course, his personal ability is also super strong.
As for the team's midfield defense, once Atletico Madrid attacks, the midfielders on both sides will retract into the middle, not entangled with the opponent's full-backs, and prefer to wander around the opponent's back line and mid-length line.
Such an offensive system has created the current Atletico Madrid team, which relies on the two-point attack of the center forward and the shadow forward without focusing on possession of the ball.
This also created the existence of a superstar: Griezmann.
Under Simeone's system, the French star played well and attracted the attention of the world, and even the Golden Globe Award also offered him an olive branch.
Facing such a team, Dortmund dare not take it lightly.
When Wang Po brought the scouting report and video analysis made by his private team, the staff of the entire club were stunned. This was much more detailed than what they had done, and some of the information was not even available to them.
Facing such a team, first of all, don't be impatient, and be more patient and meticulous than the opponent in both offense and defense.
In addition, Tuchel emphasized more on the transfer of the ball.
This requires the ball holder to have an excellent ability to read the game on the field, pass the ball before the opponent's encirclement circle is formed, and not give the opponent the opportunity to compress the ball holder.
Whether it is Tuchel's tactical preparations or Wang Po's personal opinion, the center is regarded as the key point to defeat Atletico Madrid.
In the first round of the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League, Borussia Dortmund will face the challenge of Atletico Madrid at home at the Weiss Stadium.
At the pre-match press conference, when asked by reporters how to limit Dortmund’s core player Wang Po, Atletico Madrid’s head coach Simeone seemed confident and confident. “In La Liga, we often face ceiling-level players like Ronaldo and Messi. Our defensive players can limit them very well.”
The implication is that I, Ronaldo and Messi can defend, what else can you, the core of a second-tier European team, make?
Regarding his defensive tactics, Simeone is quite conceited.
……
game day.
A large number of Borussia Dortmund fans entered the stadium. In this game, they held the team scarf exclusive to Wang Po 11 to cheer for the team, which shows Wang Po's influence among the fan groups.
In terms of starting list.
Atletico Madrid has Torres in the frontcourt, Griezmann's pair of golden guns, Saul, Gabi, Cork, Carrasco in the midfield, Savage and Godin in the center back, and Oblak in the goal. (The less hair you have, the stronger you are)
The formation is still the same 442 for a hundred years.
Tuchel of the Dortmund team arranged the team's strongest immediate combat power. The team's absolute core Wang Po started the game, and the formation defense line chose 4312.
On the front line is Aubameyang and Ousmane Dembele's partner. Wang Po returns to the midfield this time. The difference is that Tuchel's position is a midfielder that is rarely seen in modern football. Moreover, his defensive task in this game is not that big.
According to the established tactics, whether it is Ousmane Dembele or Aubameyang, there must be one person to catch the ball outside the penalty area. This arrangement can bring out the opponent's central defender and expand the space in the penalty area.
Of course, the cooperation in this game is still in the midfield behind Wang Po. They need to provide more support points for Wang Po and widen the field width.
Inside the player tunnel.
Torres took the initiative to come over, his eyebrows twitched slightly, pointed at Wang Po and said provocatively, "I know you, the core player of the Dortmund team, I will stare at you in this game."
It is a consensus in the industry that the Dortmund team will be paralyzed if the king is locked, but even if it is a consensus, so what?Which team is down again?At least so far, no!
Sensing Torres' hostility, Wang Po shrugged noncommittally, nodded lightly and said, "I see."
"You..." Torres was suddenly furious, Wang Po's performance was too arrogant in his opinion.
"Why? Are you in a hurry?" Wang Po grinned and said, "It seems that you took the initiative to provoke me, so why are you so anxious?"
As soon as this remark came out, many teammates laughed at Torres.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense, and Atletico Madrid players rushed forward.
"Boy, don't be complacent, I will greet you later." The old captain Godin stood between Wang Po and Torres, squinting at Wang Po and said.
"I heard that you are one of the strongest lines of defense in Europe, but I have never believed it." Wang Posi said without fear, neither humble nor overbearing.
"Wait and see."
After speaking, Godin took Torres and other teammates back to their original positions.
"I have the World Cup, the Champions League, what do you have? Compare with me?" Torres' anger obviously has not subsided, and he turned around cursing as he walked.
