Chapter 62: A Little Shock to the Bernabéu The security at Madrid City Hall is great. There was a "bomb" incident in 2004, and with so many teams coming to Madrid to compete every season, as well as the Madrid derby, the security personnel here have been "honed" to be extremely professional. It's a small matter to do something outside the game, but it's a big matter to cause someone to die. The Rome bus arrived at the hotel smoothly under the escort of two security vehicles. Gao Qi took out his cell phone from his backpack and found several more messages. All girls. The leader of the Huaguo team: "Gao Qi, I heard from my friends that Real Madrid is very strong, come on, come on, don't get hurt." Turin Sports Daily: "Perform well in the group stage and strive to be among the top candidates for the Golden Boy Award at the end of December. Slowly accumulate honors and your value, salary and endorsements will increase!" The little sister of the sworn enemy UEFA: "Blow up Real Madrid." Which one is more suitable for development? bah bah bah.

The war is imminent, how can you think about such things? There were boos as they walked onto the Bernabeu pitch. Real Madrid's extreme fans chased the Roma bus and shouted vulgar words, while fans on both sides of the road followed suit and booed. Gao Qi didn't care. My professional career has just begun and there will be many opportunities to play at the Bernabeu in the future. The days ahead are long, and these boos must be familiarized. Put on your headphones silently. During this period, he would wear headphones and listen to the recording of tens of thousands of people booing at the Bernabeu. Enrique's heart is stronger: every time the boos come like a wave, he will smile strangely. Ivan scratched his bald head and explained to everyone: "It's hard to explain what happened between him and Real Madrid. It happened more than ten years ago." Two days later. The Champions League group stage officially begins. The magnificent white temple of the Bernabeu exudes a terrifying aura of oppression. Tens of thousands of fans cheered in unison. Flags fluttered in the night breeze. Gao Qi and his teammates were warming up on the sidelines when all kinds of debris fell from the nearby stands. He was met with wild abuse and booing. De Rossi asked everyone to prepare well and not be affected. Totti ran to the stands and scolded the Real Madrid fans.

Ivan complained to the security personnel at the Bernabeu. The security chief had no choice but to ask the Roma team to warm up further away from the stands. "They are targeting Gao Qi from your team." "You can solve the problem by asking Gao Qi to hide in the locker room." Pre-match press conference. Enrique and Mourinho did not say hello. They met at Barcelona many years ago and became good friends. In those years when Mourinho had conflicts with the opposing coaching staff, Barcelona captain Enrique was always the first to rush forward. Time passes. Now their positions have changed. The Spanish media dug up many old accounts, and Enrique's eyes became more and more confused: "Have I done so many bad things?" "Fought with Zidane?" "Oh, now I remember. With his hot temper, can he become the sports director of Real Madrid? Then I hope he stays in that position for the rest of his life." VIP box. Zidane had a calm expression and said to the Real Madrid president: "The problems of the previous rounds of the league will not occur." "I have seen the Real Madrid coaching staff's preemptive arrangements, which are very targeted." Florentino nodded with satisfaction. He likes Zidane very much and trusts Zidane very much. The game is about to begin. The commentator waited for a long time. "Zhuangdianertai! Zhuangdianertai! Good evening, audience friends." "Now live for you is the 2012/13 UEFA Champions League group stage." "Real Madrid vs Roma!" "This is a highly anticipated matchup, and 43 countries and regions around the world will broadcast this match live simultaneously!" "The stands on all sides are like a white ocean, making the green field look like an isolated island!" "This is the first time Gao Qi has appeared on the Champions League stage in his career. We look forward to his wonderful performance!"

Player tunnel. Pepe wanted to pull Morata's hair, but his partner Ramos raised his hand to stop him. De Rossi immediately rushed forward and glared at the Real Madrid center back. Pepe said provocatively: "We were just joking with each other, what does it have to do with you? Right, little Alvaro, you used to..." Morata brushed his hair with his hands, with a serious face: "I am now wearing Roma's Champions League away jersey, not the Real Madrid youth team jersey. My identity is different now." "That's not what you said before." "That was before." "." The conflict immediately disappeared. De Rossi patted Morata's chest with satisfaction, and Ramos smiled. Pepe stopped talking. He is not an idiot, he just wanted to influence the mentality of the opponent's forward in various ways, but it didn't work on Morata. This Real Madrid central defender is a famous villain in football and is called: the monk. He would not show mercy just because his opponent was a product of Real Madrid's youth training system. An old friend from Porto was shot in the head by him as well. The queue moved slowly. Gao Qi looked at the exit in front of him and gradually became excited, as if the blood in his body was boiling. Bernabeu Stadium. The flag with the Champions League star pattern slowly withdrew from the field. The familiar BGM becomes more exciting. The referee team led the players from both teams out of the line, and the stands on all sides suddenly erupted in cheers like a landslide and tsunami. "The following introduces you to the starting lineups of both sides." "Real Madrid's formation is 4-3-3!" "Goalkeeper: Casillas." "Defenders: Marcelo, Ramos, Pepe, Arbeloa." "Midfield: Alonso, Modric, Khedira." "Forwards: Cristiano Ronaldo, Benzema, Di Maria." "It's not the familiar 4231, the new player Modric replaced Ozil in the starting position tonight!" Courtside.

The Roma coaching staff is still in a state of confusion. One hour before the game, the starting lineups for both teams were announced: Mourinho changed the formation from 4231 to surround Ozil. Ivan and the old men continued their discussion in anxious tones. Enrique put his hands in his pockets, still looking confident. "Roma's formation is 4-4-2!" "Goalkeeper: Stekelenburg." "Defenders: Florenzi, Kjaer, Castan, Balzaretti." "Midfield: Pjanic, De Rossi, Tahsidis, Lamela." "Forwards: Gao Qi, Morata." "They wore black Champions League away jerseys today, which formed a strong contrast with the white of the Bernabeu!" "A combination of one tall and one fast forward." "Yes, the height difference between the two players is only two or three centimeters, but Morata is very fast." "The camera showed Totti on the bench. I guess Enrique will bring him on in the 60th or 70th minute of the second half." Studio. The comment section is very lively. - [I hope Gao Qi can get out of the Bernabeu unscathed. ] - 【It’s okay to lose, just don’t get hurt. 】 - [It doesn’t matter if we lose by a large margin. Young people don’t need to be afraid of failure. ] - [The peak showdown, the opponent is Real Madrid! It's the Galacticos! As long as Gao Qi can score a goal, he will shine in Europe. ] - [Hey, hey, hey, didn't you watch the game this season? ] Accompanied by the referee's whistle. The game officially begins. Real Madrid has the ball. Benzema kicked the ball back to the backcourt. Instead of cautiously retreating, Roma launched a frantic high-pressure defense. "Seven Red Wolves players crossed the center circle!" "Like a mad dog. No, it's like a pack of wolves biting and tearing each other apart!" "Either you die or I live." Marcelo received the pass from Ramos on the left. He really wants to find teammates on the front line. The line was cut. Pjanic approached quickly. The Real Madrid full-back slowed down, twisted his hips, pretended to go inside, and turned to the outside. Successful breakthrough!

Marcelo during this period, although his defense was terrible, he had strong breakthrough and advancement abilities. The cheers at the Bernabeu grew louder. Courtside. Enrique put his hands in his pockets. Ivan saw Ronaldo preparing to retreat to the field to support the opponent. He immediately dropped the mineral water bottle. He madly ordered his disciples to strangle Alonso. The other side. Mourinho, who was on the Real Madrid coaching bench, smiled. Why Ronaldo retreated to contact Marcelo. Roma is going to gang up on Alonso? "Pretty!" "C Ronaldo helped Marcelo resolve Tahsidis's pressing!" "Small range, continuous and rapid delivery." "Continue to defuse the pressure." "C Ronaldo passes the ball back to Alonso who is running in!" "coming!" "Roma's dense pressure network in the frontcourt is about to be torn apart!" Alonso is a midfield maestro. At the age of 19, he became the captain of Real Sociedad, led a relegation team to win the second place in La Liga, and reached the round of of the Champions League the following year. He joined Liverpool at the age of 23 and became the leading man in Istanbul in his first season, winning the Champions League. But now he is 19 pounds thinner than his peak at the age of 18, and his speed, explosive power and physical confrontation have declined significantly. But his ability to read the game allowed him to launch an offensive before being surrounded by his opponents. Alonso made a long, inward-spinning pass surrounded by Roma players. The football flies very fast in the air. Straight into the right side of Roma's half! Di Maria is at lightning speed. “Excellent long pass skills.” "C Ronaldo attracted the Roma defense to tilt on the left, and then let Alonso make a weak side pass." "empty!"

"Roma's right half is almost empty!" "Only Gao Qi is left!" "Huh? Why is Gao Qi standing there in advance?" Courtside. Enrique looked nervous. Ivan fell to his knees and beat the turf. Why Ronaldo retreated to contact Marcelo. Roma is going to gang up on Alonso? Because Ronaldo retreats to connect with Marcelo, the two can pose a huge threat on the left, causing the Roma defense to gather on that side. But during this period, Ronaldo had already developed the ability to "shift the direction of attack". He won't dribble the ball mindlessly or shoot from half court like before. Instead, he will find the right time to pass the ball back to a better point behind him. In the end, Alonso made a precise long pass and hit Roma's weak side! Let me give you an example. Xiao Huang poked Xiao Luo's left chest with his finger. Ronaldinho raised his hands to block his left chest. Xiao Huang retracted his hand, and Xiao Luo wanted to hold his hand down. Too late. Xiao Huang suddenly poked Xiao Luo's right chest with his finger. The football traced a perfect parabolic trajectory and then fell rapidly. Di Maria looked at the tall man at the landing point, feeling helpless. Didn't go for the header. Don't engage in aerial confrontation with Gao Qi. Instead, he slowed down, stepped back sideways, and prepared to seize the opportunity for a static game. Double insurance. Static game victory: continue attacking after stealing the ball. Static game failure: being able to have close space to hinder Roma's transition attack rhythm. Correct. The core idea of ​​Roma's game must be to speed up the tempo. "Gao Qi stifled Real Madrid's weak-side attack!" "Use your physical advantage to intercept the football."

"Big centers like Gao Qi, Dzeko and Mandzukic can do this kind of work. They can make up for the high-altitude defense on the weak side in the off-ball phase!" "Why did he pass the ball back to the goalkeeper when Roma's counterattack came?" "Yes, yes, passing the ball back to the goalkeeper is the right thing to do at this time." Di Maria is a little confused. No chance for static game? Don't you want to seize the time to fight back? It's a waste of energy. I didn't gain any advantages after this trip. Mourinho has instilled an idea in Real Madrid players: whichever side consumes too much "ineffective" physical energy will gradually fall behind as the game progresses. In the football match. Assume that both teams have health bars. How to weaken each other's health bar? Through repeated attack and defense conversions, the opponent will consume "ineffective physical energy" and continuously lose blood, thereby accumulating advantages for your side. In recent years, the powerful European teams either have thick health bars, true damage, or inherited unique skills - blood-locking skills. VIP box. Zidane nodded with satisfaction: "Gao has a good attitude towards the game, and he fills in the weak side defense as a forward. He should watch the videos of Dzeko and Mandzukic more often." Florentino asked curiously: "Is this ability rare?" "It's not scarce. This is the trend of football development. It also depends on the freedom and task allocation given by the coaching staff. The players themselves must also have top-level game reading ability." Zidane shook his head and then gave a long list of tactical analysis. Hearing this, the Real Madrid president quickly waved his hands. Roma passes the ball from the backcourt. The football whizzed across the grass. There was a wave of boos at the Bernabeu. Real Madrid did not launch high pressure. The defense wasn’t in a low position either. Do not retreat to defend, do not advance to press forward. The overall formation is in the middle. 穆里尼奥新赛季也在试验战术：从低位防守转向中位防守，攻转守阶段阵型会变成4-5-1，守转攻阶段会变成2-4-4。 "Rome's attack is fierce!" "The whole army is pressing forward." "We need to seize the opening!" Pjanic dribbled the ball through the center circle, flicked the ball away from Benzema, and passed the ball to the wing.

Florenzi came on at the right time. He led the ball a few meters forward along the sideline. Roma has already deployed an attacking formation in the frontcourt. Morata and Lamela run on the left to attract the defense, while De Rossi and Tahsidis go straight to the middle. Snapped! The football stuck to the grass and rolled towards Gao Qi who ran out of the gap on the right rib. Marcelo reacted quickly and kicked the grass hard, trying to clear the ball. Gao Qi has relatively long legs. Open your body to increase the protection radius of the ball receiving point. Step out your left foot. Snapped. The football touched the back of his foot, jumped lightly and flew over Marcelo's shoulder. Gao Qi controlled his body that was about to fall on his back and turned around suddenly. One person, one ball. Passing by Marcelo on both sides. Poor Real Madrid full-back, there was no time to stop the inertia and "brake". When he turned around, he found that Gao Qi had already dribbled the ball towards the penalty area. The Bernabeu fell silent. The verbal abuse and booing stopped abruptly. That amazing way of getting rid of it was so cool and relaxed, like a hard slap in the face! “What kind of ball feeling is this?” "What kind of body control is this?" "I thought Ibrahimovic was invincible, but I didn't expect that" VIP box. Real Madrid's sports director, Zidane, touched his bald head in confusion. "His movement and body alignment when he catches the ball." "How can it be" Florentino raised his glasses, expressionless. The night breeze blew the hem of the black jersey. The abuse and booing at the Bernabeu grew louder and louder.

Gao Qi dribbled the ball to the right side of the penalty area. No extra adjustments. Left foot shot! Bah! The football flew off the ground. A sharp curve was made above the Real Madrid penalty area! The perfect combination of strength and arc! Bang! The football hit the crossbar heavily and flew out of the bottom line. The entire goal was shaking violently and trembling constantly. The hearts of Real Madrid fans are also trembling. It was as if I had been slapped hard in the face. Can Real Madrid's abandoned player on the football field actually threaten the goal of the Galacticos? "Blitze the Bernabeu!" “Almost.” "Not long after the game started, Roma launched a very threatening attack!" "Gao Qi brought a little shock to the Bernabeu!" "Hey? The gesture of his hand raising seems to be saying: Where are the boos? Where are the insults? Come on, louder!" Studio. The number of comments skyrocketed. - 【So handsome! 】 - [He received the ball with his back to the basket and then turned to get rid of it. His kicking style is very high-end.] - 【Gao Qi almost scored a goal! 】 - [Will this game be an upset? 】 - [How could there be an upset? Real Madrid can’t win. ] - [At the moment of receiving the ball, the player and the ball passed each other, was Zidane possessed? 】 - [Marcelo's defense is too weak. If Coentrao were to replace him, he would not rush forward that far. However, Coentrao does not have the abnormal offensive ability of Marcelo.] Courtside. Enrique applauded vigorously and said confidently: "My football philosophy was reflected in Gao Qi's attack this time." "Reduce the roundabout transitions in the midfield." "Just hand the ball over to the nine-and-a-half player." Ivan clenched his fists and said excitedly, "This time, Real Madrid targeted our other attacking points. I didn't expect Gao Qi to run directly to the right to receive the ball, stop and turn to get rid of Marcelo, seize the space and shoot directly!" The other side. Mourinho stood in the command area, seemingly unfazed, gesticulating slowly. Real Madrid goalkeeper Casillas did not complain about the defense. It was a bit sudden indeed. These Roma players don't think their team is at a disadvantage at all.

Pepe stared at Gao Qi with fierce eyes. He was just about to fill in the position and block the shot. Time passes minute by minute. The abuse and boos at the Bernabeu became less and less frequent. Local fans were a little reluctant to believe what was happening on the green field: white was eroded by black. The Galaxy Battleship was actually suppressed by the Red Wolf? What are you doing? How could the abandoned Real Madrid player who kicked the ball into the stands calmly serve as a passing fulcrum between the two lines? Go get him! Pepe tried very hard and kept talking trash. Unfortunately, Morata and Gao Qi rotated too frequently and he couldn't find an opportunity to attack. Fouling is also a technical job. The 22th minute of the game. The Real Madrid center back finally found his chance. Lamela's pass was misplaced. Gao Qi quickly adjusted his position and moved closer to the landing point that was over-deflected. Looking at the falling football. He pushed Khedira aside and prepared to nod to Morata. suddenly. Pepe kicked the grass hard and flew over. This guy has abnormal explosive power and short-distance displacement. When he runs, he looks like he is flying. While fighting for the ball. He kicked Gao Qi’s crotch hard with his right foot! One of the monk's famous skills is the kick that can cut off one's offspring! No one thought of it. Khedira, who was pushed away, had already adjusted his center of gravity. Taking advantage of the distance, he rushed towards Gao Qi first, trying to compete for the ball. The close-up sound equipment at the Bernabeu is very advanced. But the audience only heard a snap. Khedira knocked Gao Qi away. Pepe's kick hit nothing and he fell to the grass. Gao Qi staggered two steps, lost his balance, and fell on the Real Madrid center back. next moment.

The entire Bernabeu could hear Pepe's heart-wrenching screams of pain. Real Madrid fans angrily denounced and cursed Roma's number nine and a half as a devil and a murderer. The referee did not stop the game. He considered it a legitimate physical confrontation. "no problem!" "The three of them just collided with each other while fighting for the ball." "Keep attacking." At the top of the penalty area. Morata was very fast and stopped the out-of-control football in the first place. The fake tendency was to pretend a frontal breakthrough to attract the gathering of Real Madrid's defense. But he gently knocked the ball back with his heel. Pjanic made a timely run forward. One kick! Cut to the ground! Bah! Ramos turned around and took a long step forward, blocking the ball on the edge of the penalty area. The secondary offense did not stagnate. De Rossi unloaded the ball that bounced back. Kick again! Bah! Batistuta’s heavy artillery with 70% of his strength! The ball whizzed towards Real Madrid's goal! "Arbeloa!" "Blocked De Rossi's shot with his butt!" "According to statistics, since the 2012/13 season, the number of long-range shots in the five major leagues has increased significantly." Pepe struggled to turn over, raised his foot with difficulty, and kicked Gao Qi who had already climbed up. I didn't kick anything. Gao Qi kicked the grass and ran away happily! He didn't even know he was going to kick him? Pepe seemed to hear Mourinho's roar and quickly got up. The football bounced to the top of the penalty area again. Roma piled up players frantically in the frontcourt, not caring at all that the backcourt was empty. Trying to solve Real Madrid's counterattack storm from the root. It really solved it. In the melee.

The football inexplicably rolled to Morata's feet in the "open space". Pepe and Ramos once again demonstrated their powerful explosive power, one flew to fill the gap and the other interfered with the shot. Unlike Serie A defenders. The two central defenders of Real Madrid have very abnormal physical fitness, and their defensive style during this period is more inclined towards "active" and "filling in the gaps". It's not the kind of "I predicted the opponent's offensive trend in advance, and I deliberately blocked you there! Yes, I deliberately left an open space here, and in three seconds, he will die!" It's the kind of "Dig the hole? The ball is coming from here, don't worry, I'm quick and explosive, okay, done!" Morata felt like he was hallucinating. It was as if he had eyes on his back and could see Gao Qi running desperately behind him, trying to form a "diagonal" line with him. Snapped! Gently push your heel diagonally backwards! Ramos and Pepe didn't have time to explode again and looked nervous. Before the audience in front of the TV could react, they saw Gao Qi rushing out of the camera. VIP box. Zidane's hands unconsciously grasped the armrests of the chair. empty. It's really empty. Courtside. Enrique looked confused. Mourinho's hands were shaking slightly. "Gao Qi is slowing down to adjust and get going!" "How did you find that location?" "Just now he suddenly appeared in the camera." The commentator was only halfway through his words. Gao Qi has completed the adjustment. Towards football. Lean your body. Raise your arms. Get up! Bah! At this moment, it seemed as if the entire Bernabeu was shaking. The sound of the instep touching the football made the local Real Madrid fans feel stuffy in their chests.

The night wind blew the black jersey. The abandoned player of Real Madrid who was despised by everyone is still very powerful! The football is like a cannonball. Fierce and domineering. Unstoppable. It went straight through Real Madrid's goal. Smashed all the insults and boos. A thunder strike. 0:1! ! ! The Bernabeu was extremely quiet, as if a funeral was being held. (End of this chapter)
