The Real Madrid fans at the Bernabéu felt relieved after Robben put the ball into the goal. At the same time, they were rekindled with a long-lost passion!
It seemed that all their worries had vanished.
It seemed to be the same when they played against Liverpool last year. They fell behind first, and it was a two-goal deficit.
Now that they quickly equalized the score, it was a good sign.
Deafening cheers reverberated in the Bernabéu stadium. Robben laughed heartily and even did a sliding kneel in celebration.
"Real Madrid equalized the score with a wonderful teamwork! Qin Xiong, Guti, Snede, and Robben teamed up to break through Liverpool's defense. Even if Raúl did not touch the ball, his running position on the front line could not go unnoticed. He provided an important cover for Robben!
Real Madrid equalized the score. It is worth noting that Qin Xiong returned to the midfield during this attack, which shows his extremely high ball quotient. When Real Madrid lost momentum in the midfield, he immediately withdrew to reinforce and played to his dominant organizational talent!
After he attracted the majority of Liverpool's midfield strength, his pass to Guti was wonderful, and the situation suddenly became clear.
I don't know if Liverpool can learn a lesson from this defense. "
Benítez's face was cloudy and uncertain. Mistakes could not be made in a game of this level!
But Liverpool still made mistakes in this defense.
Both defensive midfielders made mistakes!
Alonso should not have chased after Qin Xiong, and Mascherano should not have rushed to snatch Guti in a panic, leaving the front of the penalty area unprotected.
This was because Real Madrid's offense showed an unexpected change.
The source of all this was Qin Xiong!
He disrupted Liverpool's established thinking in the midfield defense. In a split second, Qin Xiong's withdrawal and switch positions with Guti cracked Liverpool's defensive system in one fell swoop.
Mascherano and Alonso communicated before kickoff. They took this game very seriously and naturally would not throw it to the back of their minds after losing the ball.
After the game restarted, Liverpool continued to launch a fast attack. Gerard suddenly came to the right flank during the attack. He probably saw Marcelo's weakness in defense. Not to mention that it was difficult to defend against Kuyt, with Gerard, Marcelo could only raise his hands and surrender.
Sure enough, Gerard and Kuyt successfully pushed the attack into Real Madrid's penalty area after a series of one-two passes on the right flank in the front.
At this time, Real Madrid's defensive line immediately. Pepe and Cannavaro almost retreated into the penalty area, to mark Torres...
Guti and Diarra moved to block Gerard, fearing his shot.
Gerard suddenly diagonally passed the ball to the left flank in front of the penalty area.
Riera cut inside the penalty area to receive the ball without adjusting and directly shot a long shot!
The quality of the shot was extremely high and it went straight to the upper left corner of the goal. Casillas made a heroic play and made a world-class save. He used his right hand to lift the ball over the crossbar!
"Riera's wonderful long shot, Casillas's beautiful save!
The battle between Real Madrid and Liverpool is really going back and forth, and both sides are locked in battle! "
In the 40th minute of the game, Qin Xiong still wanted to repeat the same trick. He dragged back in the midfield to attract the opponent's defensive forces to lure the snake out of its hole.
But Liverpool did not fall for it this time.
If Qin Xiong kept the ball in place and did not push forward the attack, then Liverpool would retreat and form a dense defensive formation, allowing Real Madrid to fight an extremely difficult battle.
And if Qin Xiong played the ball, they would not blindly encircle Qin Xiong and expose the gaps in other defensive areas.
When the football was passed to Snede's feet, Snede saw Mascherano and Alonso guarding the key area in front of the penalty area and did not have enough space for him.
At this time, the weakness of Real Madrid's lack of manpower in the front line was exposed.
Snede had difficulty finding the point to play the ball. In the end, he could only pass the ball back to Qin Xiong, who plugged in from the back. In order to push forward the attack, Qin Xiong had to cooperate with Guti under Gerard's entanglement.
The two men combined to push the attack to the area forty yards away from the goal. Qin Xiong had to play the ball under Kuyt's pressure.
He knew that Mascherano and Alonso were waiting for him to make a mistake.
Unexpectedly, Qin Xiong directly passed the ball into the penalty area.
And he consciously passed the ball behind Agger.
Raúl rushed forward faster than Agger, but Carragher's movement was also very fast. Raúl could only receive the ball and directly jump before swinging his head to attack the goal.
He was unable to exert his strength and the football fell lightly into Reina's arms.
Real Madrid's attack did not pose a threat.
However, Qin Xiong's wonderful pass still won the applause of the fans.
Qin Xiong did not feel optimistic about the situation on the field.
The problem of Real Madrid's unbalanced lineup structure became the crux of the problem that could not be perfectly solved.
If he withdrew, the midfield could be stabilized, but the offensive points in the front line were insufficient.
If he did not withdraw, the midfield would collapse!
Liverpool launched a wave of aerial bombing offensive before the end of the first half.
Alonso made a long pass in the backfield and the football bounced in the Real Madrid defensive midfielder area. Guti and László Diarra were unable to rush to the landing point to control the football before it landed.
Before the football landed for the second time, Torres jumped diagonally in front of Pepe and used his chest to take the football away!
The agile and agile Torres followed closely after Cannavaro fell to the ground to slide the ball diagonally into the penalty area. Then he dodged Cannavaro's body and rushed into the penalty area like an assassin.
After he led the ball with his chest, he passed the ball!
The Holy Boy Torres had become a world-class striker in the last two years!
His strength and form were undeniably strong!
When Pepe returned to the penalty area to use a shovel to block Torres's shooting angle, Torres once again showed his calm side in a big game.
He used a feint to kick the ball back. Not only did he bypass Pepe, but he also widened his shooting angle.
At this time, Casillas had already abandoned the goal and ran in front of him. Torres used the outside of his foot to kick the ball to the far corner of the goal.
Because of the urgency of time, he did not have much time to swing his leg to exert force. He used skillfully!
The football slowly rolled past Casillas's side, and then it spun close to the ground and rolled towards the far corner of the goal.
The eyes of the Real Madrid fans in the Bernabéu stands were full of horror!
That ball was rolling towards the goal!
There was no need to take any chances!
Just as Torres was about to celebrate the goal, a figure slid over and shoveled the ball out of the sideline before it was about to roll into the goal!
Ramos, who stood up in front of the goal line, received applause from the fans in the stadium, and Casillas came over to hug his head and kiss him.
Real Madrid had a narrow escape!
But the fragile side of the defensive line was completely exposed!
