Chapter 1285 successor
【Starting from coaching Real Madrid】【】
When Manchester City tried to pass the ball into the penalty area, above Harry Kane's head, the Dutch central defender De Ligt, who was originally stuck behind Harry Kane, quickly went around to the front of his former teammate, a brave He made a clearance with a header, pushed the ball out of the penalty area, and landed near the 30-meter area.
Bernardo Silva's back was turned to the attacking direction, and when he stopped the ball with his foot, Fernandinho had already rushed behind him.
The Portuguese made a skillful fake move. After deceiving Fernandinho, he turned and got rid of the Brazilian. He dribbled the ball forward and quickly sent a direct pass to the right side of the center circle.
Dembele grabbed the ball ahead of Benjamin Mendy, stopped the ball in the middle circle, and quickly moved the ball to the inside with his left foot. The whole person dribbled the ball inward and cut inward, and took a peek at an opportunity, and immediately passed the ball A diagonal pass to the left rib neutral.
In a hurry, Manchester City's defense left too much space behind them.
Mbappe went forward at breakneck speed, with Jerome Boateng chasing desperately behind him and Vardy a little behind.
Near the middle, Kompany and Stones also returned to defense immediately.
But Mbappe still caught up with Dembele's pass on the left side of the front of the penalty area.
But as soon as he stopped, Jerome Boateng was already in place.
Mbappe slowed down and dribbled into City's penalty area, closing in on Jerome Boateng.
Vardy ran to the middle, ready to receive Mbappe's pass at any time, which attracted the attention of Stones and Kompany.
Fernandinho has also chased back to the vicinity of the penalty area line.
When Mbappe rushed to the front of Boateng with the ball, he flicked the ball lightly with the instep of his right foot, and then made a gesture to hit the goal. This immediately deceived Boateng and let the German central defender play. blockage.
But Mbappe reacted very flexibly. After a fake move was made, it was a real volley immediately.
The ball flew out from Boateng's crotch.
"A quick counterattack from Leeds United."
"Mbappe cuts in from the left side of the penalty area, swaying Boateng, fakes, kicks and hits again!"
"Crotch shot!
!
"
"The ball is in!
!
"
"Two to zero!"
"Mbappe makes another move!"
"Leeds United will expand the score further."
"From the 67th minute, a wonderful shot by Mbappe, very stealthy and very tricky."
"Jerome Boateng was tricked by his initial stop fake action, thinking he was going to hit the goal and make a blocking action first. Unexpectedly, Mbappe then directly volleyed the ball and kicked the ball towards the goal. to the left of the goal."
"From the lens of the goal, it can be seen that this shot almost hit the goal against the left post."
"Goalkeeper Ederson can't do anything about shots like that."
"Another counterattack from Leeds United, piercing Manchester City's defense."
"After the start of the second half, Leeds United's counterattack did not achieve the desired effect, and then the game situation was gradually controlled by Manchester City, but when everyone thought that Manchester City would continue to play steadily and control the situation, Leeds United suddenly counterattacked. Break through Manchester City's defense again."

"This is the strength of a top team!"
"This is Mbappe!"
"Two goals!"
"Mbappe used two goals to give Leeds United the lead in this Champions League."
…
The entire Amazon Stadium was filled with cheers from Leeds United fans.
Not just on the pitch, but off the pitch as well.
The Leeds United players rushed to the sidelines, cheering wildly and celebrating.
Two to zero!
This lead is indeed not small.
"It's still playing in the gap between Manchester City's back line and the midfield line." Ferguson shook his head and sighed.
The game has progressed so far, unless Manchester City makes a big change, otherwise, the outcome is basically the same.
To put it bluntly, Leeds United can defend to the end even if they strictly guard against death.
The White Roses are not a fuel-efficient lamp, and their defensive ability is also very good.
"Manchester City's current problems are actually quite complicated, especially in the face of Leeds United's targeted tactics. There has been no good solution." Wenger also felt a headache.
Guardiola's tactical system is indeed very stable, but many problems are not easy to solve.
Efficient pressing and pressing, efficient and quick counterattack.
The goal of Leeds United just now reflects the second point.
Dembé moved out of the reach of Fernandinho, Kompany and Benjamin Mendy to receive a pass from Bernardo Silva, certainly not for nothing.
The Portuguese passed it here because they knew that either Vardy or Dembe would come, and someone must grab it.
After receiving the ball in this gap, the gap behind Manchester City was completely exposed.
It's just offense.
On the defensive end, Leeds United did not fight against Manchester City at all, but stopped the defensive formation, held the center, and let Manchester City get the ball on the wing, because whether it is Hazard or Gareth Bale, they actually need inside. Everything can play a threat.
But Leeds United's approach is to block your inline line and force you to go sideways.
If you go to the side, you need someone to support you in the middle.
But more often there is only Harry Kane alone. Under the joint confinement of Ruben Dias and De Ligt, Harry Kane basically does not get the slightest benefit.
This is equivalent to saying that Leeds United let go of the wing to let Manchester City attack, and shrink the defense to block the center and sides.
Guardiola went blind right away.
From the overall tactical point of view, Leeds United has obviously made full preparations early, especially after Manchester City adjusted back to the 433 formation, Leeds United immediately responded.
Now, Manchester City's passivity is basically a sequela of Guardiola's willful changes in the first half.
In such a crucial decisive battle, he lost the initiative and was always passive.
What's more, Guardiola's team has never been the kind of tough guy.
"Mbappe's 250 million euros is really worth it!" Ferguson repeatedly praised.
He is a man of knowledge.
Back then, after Manchester United sold Ronaldo to Real Madrid, Ferguson was very unhappy and felt that the sale was cheap.
What Ferguson basically meant was that it was too cheap for Ronaldo to only sell for 80 million pounds, it should be 150 million pounds.
The reason is that Real Madrid can afford the price.

【Starting from coaching Real Madrid】【】
The logic here actually makes sense.
Unborn talented players like Messi and Ronaldo are often luxuries that cannot be met.
Player transfers are like buying and selling.
You get what you pay for, you get two for one dollar, and you get three for ten dollars.
Ordinary people pursue what you get for what you get for what you pay for, and what you get is enough; the small rich will pursue something, and they want to pursue high-quality two-for-one products; three-point goods.
Teams like Real Madrid and Barcelona basically pursue three-pointers.
But the problem is also here.
Players are not industrial products and cannot be mass-produced.
Even for Gao Shen and Leeds United, it is impossible to mass-produce super talents such as Mbappe, Ronaldo, Neymar and Messi.
Yes, in terms of football talent, Ronaldo and Mbappe are slightly inferior to Messi and Neymar, but they both have amazing physical talents, that is, speed and explosive power.
Whether it is technical talent or physical talent, industrialization cannot be mass-produced and replicated.
Leeds United can only search for talented and potential rookies all over the world, and then work hard to train them into talents.
And this is doomed, these talented players will always be scarce.
This is Ferguson's logic.
As long as you continue to pursue the ultimate, only I can sell it to you, then I can offer you the highest price within your acceptable range.
In 2009, Ferguson thought it was £150m.
Now, 250 million euros, Ferguson thinks it is still cheap.
"This is the price of keeping Mbappe last year." Gao Shen said with a wry smile.
If you look at it by today's standards, it must be cheap.
If Leeds United plays the game and let Paris and Real Madrid grab it, it is estimated that they will be worth around 300 million euros.
The reason is simple, Ronaldo and Messi are both old, and Mbappe seems to be the most potential successor of the two.
Last year's World Cup champion and this season's Champions League champion, these two trophies are enough for Mbappe to succeed the crown prince.
…
After Guardiola lost the ball, he finally made a substitution adjustment.
He first replaced Jerome Boateng with Cancelo.
This move is intended to strengthen the team's offense, especially on the right.
Cancelo's offensive firepower on the right is still very fierce.
Leeds United was also prepared for this, replacing Dembey with Valverde.
As a result, the team immediately made adjustments and became a formation similar to 442. Mbappe and Vardy were at the forefront and continued to adopt defensive counterattack tactics.
Facing Manchester City's possession of the ball, Leeds United has already had a wealth of experience.
After 75 minutes, Guardiola saw that the team still hadn't opened up the situation, and immediately made a third substitution, replacing Fernandinho with Suarez.
This is already a desperate attempt, and he wants to fight Leeds United.
Pochettino also immediately made a second substitution, replacing Kimmich with Rodri. UU reading www.uukanshu.com
The team's formation was adjusted again, with Rodri lagging behind, Milinkovic and Valverde on both sides, forming a three midfielder, and Bernardo Silva advancing forward, forming a formation similar to 4312.

Not only that, the team's three lines all shrank, which immediately allowed Manchester City to have possession of the ball, but they were still unable to effectively pass the ball into Leeds United's penalty area, let alone pose a threat.
In the end, it even forced Manchester City to adopt the tactic of crossing from the wing.
It is conceivable that Manchester City really has no good way to take advantage of Leeds United's defense. It is like facing an iron plate, even using the wide cross that Guardiola most disdains to use.
Leeds United made the last substitution of the game in the 84th minute.
The teenager Harland replaced the old captain Vardy.
This is Leeds United's reward for Haaland scoring in five consecutive games!
The whole stadium also gave warm applause to Harland and Vardy.
After Harland came on the field, he formed a double forward with Mbappe.
At this moment, Gao Shen was sitting in the stands, and he was very pleased and excited to see it.
"Perhaps, after many, many years, people will miss tonight's game very much." Gao Shen said with a faint smile.
"Why?" Wenger wondered.
"Because, Haaland and Mbappe fought side by side, even though it may have been less than ten minutes, this is the Champions League final."
The meaning revealed by these words is obvious. Gao Shen is very optimistic about Harland and Mbappé.
