Kyiv Dynamo did not expect to be breached by their opponents in less than 10 minutes after the start of the match!
For them, having strong opponents like Real Madrid and Lyon in the same group was already difficult enough. They did not expect to lose 1: 4 to Steaua Bucharest at home in the first game. They would have to play back-to-back games with Lyon in the third and fourth rounds.
The second game against Real Madrid was crucial.
But looking at the current situation, they were nervous and could not adapt to the atmosphere at Bernabéu. Instead, they were even more nervous and shocked!
Especially Qin Xiong, who ran to the sidelines with his arms open to welcome the cheers of the fans like a king. This made Kyiv Dynamo feel extremely troubled!
"Real Madrid opens the scoring! No one thought that the goal would come so quickly.
Qin Xiong, who came to Bernabéu to make a name for himself, has become Real Madrid's most important player step by step through diligent and low-key efforts.
In every game since he joined Real Madrid, he has performed very well. Goals and assists come easily!
Look at this goal, it's another wonderful performance.
He knocked the ball from behind on the left side of the front field and changed direction to break through Yusuf. Then, he and Raúl ran into the wall in the middle. Raúl's coordination was very good and formed a tacit understanding with Qin Xiong's positioning. Qin Xiong was only one step away from catching up with Qin Xiong. Unfortunately, in the blink of an eye, Qin Xiong broke through Kyiv Dynamo's midfield defense. Then, after the rhythm paused to confuse Kyiv Dynamo's two center backs, Qin Xiong boldly and decisively dribbled the ball directly into the penalty area and completed a beautiful goal! "
After the goal celebration, Qin Xiong and his teammates high-fived each other and walked back to the midfield.
After the restart of the match, Kyiv Dynamo tried to organize an effective offense, but they were frantically pressed by Real Madrid in the midfield.
Emerson and Diarra had no problems defending. The defensive ability of this pair of defensive midfielders was very strong. Kyiv Dynamo could not directly advance their offense from the flanks to the front line. When they turned to look for support in the middle, the ball would be intercepted by Real Madrid.
In the 12th minute of the game, Qin Xiong once again came to the left side of the front field. This time, he faced Yusuf and directly turned the ball into the inside line. Then, he sent out a straight shot of a scalpel that shocked everyone.
The football passed diagonally between the midfielders, Berković and Corea, and out of the reach of Sabrić, who was on the full back line, the football rolled behind Nasmagini.
The spectator stands were in an uproar.
Because after Reyes moved from the outside to the inside line, he controlled the football in front of the end line in the penalty area.
Qin Xiong stuck close to the ground and penetrated through two defensive lines to find his teammates!
It was so shocking!
Reyes took two steps toward the goal steering wheel from the end line in the penalty area and sent out a cross pass. Van Nistelrooy immediately rushed to the front of the goal to try to shoot. Unfortunately, the angle left for him was too small. His shot was blocked by the goalkeeper with his body!
There was a sigh in the Bernabéu stands, and then a thunderous applause sounded.
Real Madrid's offense let the fans see gorgeous colors!
Taking advantage of the opponent's unsteady footing, Real Madrid's offense today worked wonders.
What was more important to the Kyiv Dynamo team was the stimulation of psychological pressure!
They were obviously not playing normally, and the players were too nervous.
In the 15th minute of the game, Ramos, who was unwilling to be left out, rushed up from the backfield. Reyes was cooperating with Qin Xiong on the front waist line. Qin Xiong suddenly kicked a pass to the empty space in the side of the penalty area. Ramos cut into the penalty area and captured the space. Unfortunately, he was too fussy with handling the ball. He took an extra step to avoid Sabrić and narrowed the angle of his shot. Then, he barely managed to shoot and the football flew out of the end line.
Real Madrid's offense was aggressive.
This made Capello fall into deep thought on the sidelines.
Was this kind of aggressive and oppressive offense the tactic that Real Madrid should implement?
He began to have a little doubt about his tactical thinking, but he quickly denied it in his heart.
Kyiv Dynamo was not a strong team in European football after all.
He always believed that if they were to encounter a strong Italian team that was good at defensive counterattack, Real Madrid's aggressive offense would be digging their own grave.
He still thought that Real Madrid should focus on strengthening their defense. Only by building a fence could they attack the city on the basis of keeping the enemy at bay for thousands of miles.
In the 21st minute of the game, Kyiv Dynamo's offense in the front field ended at the feet of Diarra. Milevskiy tried to break through Diarra, but Diarra overbearingly closed in and intercepted the ball.
After Diarra intercepted the ball, he diagonally passed the ball to Emerson nearby. Emerson looked up and observed the front. He was a little afraid to stick to the ball.
Not only were the Real Madrid fans dissatisfied with his sluggish way of handling the ball, but Capello also repeatedly ordered him to reduce the time he had the ball.
He had to be more decisive!
So, after he observed his teammates in the front field, he immediately sent out a rolling ball.
He saw Qin Xiong.
But his pass was really not very good.
A ball under his feet would make Qin Xiong stand in place and wait, or take the initiative to retreat in the direction of the rolling football. In any case, it had the negative effect of delaying the attack.
Corea followed behind Qin Xiong like a shadow. Qin Xiong faced the rolling football with his back to Kyiv Dynamo's penalty area. He looked back before he touched the ball. After he roughly understood the situation behind him, he immediately made a decision in his heart.
He used his body to block the position, his right foot facing the incoming ball gently kicked the ball. The football bounced in place in front of him. He then slightly turned his body and kicked the ball hard behind him with the heel of his right foot.
Corea barely saw Qin Xiong's movements. He only felt a gust of wind in his ear and the football flew past his head.
Wow!
The fans in the stands of Bernabéu were boiling with excitement after seeing Qin Xiong's heel pass.
Because the pass was beyond imagination!
A kick with the heel!
The football passed over the head of the center back, Gavrancic, and the position where it fell was where the Real Madrid player, Raúl, cut in!
Raúl rushed past Gusev and charged into the penalty area diagonally. When the football fell, he unloaded the ball with his chest. Then, after a slight adjustment, he faced the attacking goalkeeper, Shovkovski, and chose a safe push shot!
The football flew past Shovkovski's side into the bottom right corner of the goal.
Raúl suddenly laughed heartily after the goal. He turned his head to look at Qin Xiong with an excited expression. He pointed his finger at Qin Xiong and praised the other party's wonderful pass.
Qin Xiong was also very happy, for Raúl's goal. He was happy that his flash of inspiration could be understood by his teammates.
In fact, Qin Xiong could only play to his best ability when he cooperated with a top player.
Because cooperation always went both ways.
At the beginning of the season, his teammates did not understand Qin Xiong's specific strength and did not know how to cooperate with Qin Xiong. Now, they really regarded Qin Xiong as an important partner, were full of confidence in Qin Xiong, and paid attention to Qin Xiong's thinking and habits in football during training. They now understood.
How could Reyes receive Qin Xiong's direct pass with the scalpel?
How could Raúl run diagonally when Qin Xiong's back was facing the penalty area?
It did not appear out of thin air!
This was true teamwork, built on the foundation of trust!
