Legendary godfather of green grass

531: Mr. Simeone's thorough preparations

The wind and the clouds will meet, and the mountains and rains are about to come!

On the evening of May 2016, 5, the San Siro stadium in Milan, Italy was overcrowded.

Many fans from all over the world have gathered here, and they are all looking forward to the start of this season's UEFA Champions League final.

Today it is more like a grand festival venue.

Of course, there are also tens of thousands of fans from both sides gathered here. The two camps are very spectacular when viewed from the aerial camera.

The scandal at the scene was also very hot, and all the fans cheered and screamed excitedly.

"Friends of the audience, friends of the fans, hello! This is BBC Sports, and I am the Mortensen you are familiar with!" The commentator of BBC Sports Mortensen is now sitting in the commentary booth of the San Siro Stadium in Milan. They are Explain the game live.

More importantly, not only they appear here, but also the on-site commentary board team from 100 to [-] national teams and TV stations from all over the world appear here. This game will be played by more than [-] national team regional TV stations live streaming.

And not far from Mortensen's right hand are the live commentators of China National Sports Channel.

The influence of this game can be seen.

"Friends of the audience, friends of the fans, hello! I am Shearer, and Mortensen and I will explain the game for you today." Shearer also came to the scene as a guest commentator, and Mortensen partner.

"Today we bring you the final of the 2015-2016 UEFA Champions League, against Atletico Madrid from Spain and Crystal Palace from England," Mortensen said.

"At present, the players of the two teams have not come to the scene, but the atmosphere of the scene is already very hot." Mortensen said.

What Mortensen said is that not being on the field is not not being on the court. Players from both sides have already arrived at the San Siro Stadium, and they have all warmed up and returned to the locker room to make final preparations.They have to wait until the time when the game will start, and they will follow the pace of the referee team into the scene.

Today's referee team is from Hungary, and the referee for this game is Kassai!

This is indeed UEFA's main referee this season, and even such an important game as the final is allowed to enforce the law.

To be honest, the referee in England's media is not bad.Because the last time they enforced the Crystal Palace game, Crystal Palace won. This is the lucky star of Crystal Palace. In this game, Crystal Palace should be able to easily win.

At this time, the players from both sides were in the locker room doing their final preparations before the match.

In the dressing room of Atletico Madrid, Simeone, who was wearing a black suit, stood among the players like a handsome bodyguard, and he glanced at all the players.

Then, he said: "Our opponent is very strong today, you should be very clear, right?"

Atlético de Madrid players nodded, expressing their understanding.

Because there are enough players like them who have played under Tong Yi, one is Griezmann and the other is Torres. These two played under Tong Yi in two different periods. Everyone came to Atletico Madrid to play.

These two are also guards of honor for Atlético de Madrid's Xi'an Ai!

These two determine the upper limit of Atletico Madrid.Simeone also attaches great importance to these two forwards. Today they can win this game depends on these two forwards.

These two people have already told you the characteristics of Tong Yi's team and the Crystal Palace's gauntlet in detail. At this time, the Crystal Palace players will naturally know.

Simeone was very satisfied, nodded immediately and said: "Just know!"

Then he continued: "This is a team with a very strong robbery ability, and the offensive and defensive transition is very fast. Often use the offensive and defensive transition to score goals! So, in this game, we have to pay attention to this, defending Pay attention especially when playing. It is best to be able to let them hit a quick counterattack. After the ball is intercepted, you have to organize counterattacks and interceptions as soon as possible. Don’t let them launch a quick counterattack in the first place. Even fouls are not hesitating!"

Yes, Simeone is very afraid of the offensive and defensive transition of the Crystal Palace, which is also a key point he raised to the Atletico Madrid players.

The Atlético de Madrid players listened very carefully and nodded excitedly, expressing that they understood.

Simeone continued: "We don't have to pay attention to the rhythm of Crystal Palace in this game. We still have to play according to our Atlético Madrid rhythm and familiar way. Those who press and defend must be tougher and move bigger. It’s okay to be dirty, as long as you can win this game, you can say anything, understand?”

Atletico Madrid players immediately shouted in unison: "Got it!"

Atletico Madrid's tactics are still mainly defensive, and they are still known for being fierce and iron-blooded. The inevitable defensive moves are a bit big and dangerous, which is also a way for them to deter opponents.Especially against those teams that pass the ball very well, it is simply a nemesis type.

Therefore, their performance in La Liga this season is also very good.

When it comes to defense, Simeone is really not afraid of any opponent.He felt that the victory over Crystal Palace should be easy, and they have an advantage.

Simeone also said: "When defending, you especially have to pay attention to two people!"

Augusto immediately asked: "Boss, which two people?"

Simeone said bluntly: "One is De Bruyne, the core midfielder of Crystal Palace. Most of Crystal Palace's offenses and counterattacks are initiated from him. This season, this guy has scored more than 20 goals. More than 30 assists, so you should be able to understand the tactical low position of this guy in Crystal Palace, right?"

Hiss, the Atlético de Madrid players took a breath!

This De Bruyne is indeed the best player of the season in the Premier League!

From these data, it can be seen that most of Crystal Palace's offenses are concentrated at De Bruyne's feet.As long as De Bruyne is restricted, the threat of Crystal Palace will be reduced to a minimum.

Therefore, Simeone will ask them to pay attention to De Bruyne.

Atlético de Madrid players nodded one after another, expressing their understanding.

Simeone also said: "This De Bruyne is a guy with excellent skills at his feet, who can pass, shoot and organize. He feels the core. And this guy's speed is not slow. You should pay attention when defending, don't take it lightly. The opponent used the speed to get rid of it, understand?"

Atletico Madrid players nodded solemnly: "Understood!"

Simeone was very satisfied and kept nodding.

Then he continued: "The second is Kanter. Don't underestimate this Kanter, he is another indispensable existence of Crystal Palace. He is not only the defensive gate of Crystal Palace, but also the starting point of Crystal Palace's counterattack. Do you understand? This tactical position is no worse than that of De Bruyne!"

Atlético de Madrid players took a breath!

Simeone continued: "Kante is the player who has completed successful tackles in the Premier League throughout the season. He has contributed 188 times in the Premier League this season, averaging 4.97 times per game, which is higher than the No.2 Gay. That's 45 times more; and Peters, who has the third most successful tackles in the Premier League, only has 115 times. You should be able to see how big the difference is!"

hiss!

The Atlético Madrid fans stared wide-eyed in disbelief, how is this possible?

An average of 5 tackles per game?I'm afraid it's not a monster, is it?Anyway, Atletico Madrid's players were stunned by Kanter's amazing statistics.There is no such person in their Atletico Madrid team, and their Atletico Madrid team is still a very strong defensive team, and there are no such exaggerated statistics!

This Kanter is simply not human!

Simeone looked at the crowd, and then said: "And Kanter is also the player who has completed the most successful steals in the Premier League this season. He has completed 175 steals this season, averaging 4.6 times per game; No. No. 2 Gay has only 141 times, and No. 3 Koscielny has only 126 times."

Kanter averaged nearly 10 midfield shovels and interceptions per game. This is simply a wall in front of the Crystal Palace's back line. It is difficult for his opponents to easily get through Kanter's midfield.No wonder Crystal Palace only conceded 27 goals in the Premier League this season. This Crystal Palace is really good.

And Kanter's partner Casemiro's statistics are not as good as Kanter's, but his successful tackles are also very powerful. He can rank in the top eight in the Premier League. With these two people, Crystal Palace's defense will naturally be strong. It's impenetrable.

And once Kanter and the others completed a tackle or a steal in the midfield, he immediately sent the football to De Bruyne's feet, and then quickly launched a counterattack, making the opponent hard to defend!

Crystal Palace's super fast offensive and defensive transitions come from their defense and pressing.

And the top priority is Kanter.

Therefore, Kanter's tactical status may not be much worse than that of De Bruyne.

If you want to get stuck in Crystal Palace, you have to stare at De Bruyne and Kanter.

Atlético de Madrid's players all looked very serious after hearing this. They knew that Crystal Palace was difficult to deal with, but they didn't expect it to be so difficult to deal with.Torres told them before that De Bruyne and Kanter are the most powerful in Crystal Palace, but they are not as obvious and direct as they are now.

The Atlético Madrid players immediately became serious.

Simeone continued: "So, our opponents are really strong. You have all paid attention to me, don't underestimate your opponents. We are challengers in this game, and we will show you [-]% Work hard and fight hard, fight against opponents, understand?"

Atlético de Madrid's players chanted in unison: "Understood, boss!"

Simeone also said: "I still say the same thing, let me be more aggressive in defense. It is best to be able to directly give them to the pillars and scare them, so that we have a chance, understand?"

"Understood!" Atletico Madrid players said loudly.

Simeone was very satisfied, and then said: "Of course, everyone should pay attention to other players. Don't just stare at these two and forget to defend others! Every player in the Crystal Palace team is not weak. Yeah, you can't let go of any one player, understand?"

Atlético Madrid players yelled again: "Understood!"

Only then did Simeone wave his hand in satisfaction, and said, "Okay, since this is the case, let's go!"

Atletico Madrid players filed out and flooded into the stadium!

The final of this season's UEFA Champions League is about to begin!
