1078 Turn the tide

In the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals, Liverpool and Real Madrid have been on a fast pace. This peak match came to 35 minutes of the first half. After two consecutive adjustments, Liverpool finally launched a continuous attack against Real Madrid.

The first adjustment was to liberate Arnold from participating in the frontcourt offense, allowing Mbappe to get more support.

The second adjustment was that after Casemiro scored, the team was asked to shoot more long shots. The overall mid-front offensive system was creating a better long shot environment for teammates, and at the same time, it would also form a closer joint defense and counter-attack system.

In the 37th minute of the game, Mbappe dribbled the ball and moved towards the bottom line after receiving the right from the frontcourt. When Marcelo and Kroos helped defend and returned to the back of the penalty area, Mbappe knocked the ball back to Arnold in the rear. The latter hit the ball across before Ronaldo interfered. Casemiro passed the ball too far and wide to the left in front of the penalty area.

Modric immediately rushed to defend Sane, but the German winger made a cross-bow. Eriksen pulled the ball in the middle of the penalty area and changed direction and completed the adjustment and then shot a long shot!

After all, Khdira's retreat was too deep. Real Madrid was afraid of Liverpool's pass and cut cooperation to break through their defense, so retreating to the penalty area became the norm in this game.

But this leads to the lack of protection in the front of the penalty area once the other two central defenders are restrained!

Although Eriksen's shot was blocked by Navas, the football blocked the wing was first controlled by Mbappe. Mbappe immediately cooperated with Arnold, started the inward cut and rushed past Marcelo and successfully received the baseline. Seeing Varane rushing up to press, Mbappe decisively swept the ball to the front of the goal.

Lewandowski had already blocked Ramos when he rushed to the goal to encircle, but Khedira returned to the front area to clear the ball!

Real Madrid fans were relieved, but the football that was cleared was still controlled by Kante near the center circle. Benzema immediately counterattacked, Kante passed the ball back, Van Dijk controlled the ball, and Liverpool continued to take the initiative in the offensive.

Zidane saw that the first half was about to enter the end of the game, and Liverpool's offensive was so fierce that he decisively gestured to the team to strengthen their defense.

This adjustment is actually not very meaningful. Real Madrid has played very conservatively today. How can they be conservative?

Will Asensio, Benzema, and Ronaldo all retreat to the front of the penalty area?

In the 39th minute of the game, Liverpool launched a fast attack from the left. Sane took the ball in front of Carvajal and then swayed and cut across. When Carvajal quickly recovered into the penalty area, Sane passed the ball straight to the front of the bottom line.

Robertson quickly went down the bottom and turned around the outside line and then made a cross in front of the bottom line!

The football flew to the back point of the penalty area, Varane and Ramos attacked Lewandowski. Mbappe at the back point cut inside and then headed the ball back to the middle.

This time Valane made a contribution!

Instead of blindly blocking Mbappe, he blocked Lewandowski, got stuck in the position and headed the ball to clear the ball!

Khedira rushed outward and headed Erikson to the header and headed the ball forward to try to find Benzema.

But the football was controlled by Casemiro halfway through, and the latter immediately collided with Kante and quickly stepped forward after taking the ball.

When Casemiro took the ball to the right in front of the penalty area, Real Madrid's defense was obviously very nervous because they were afraid that Casemiro would have another long shot!

When Kroos rushed towards him, Khedira also ran towards him for angle blockade and joint defense.

Casemiro looked stupid, but in fact he was very clear-headed and always calm in the game. He saw Khdira rushing towards him and knew that Real Madrid had to take the top defense to sweep the front of the penalty area because he was afraid of Liverpool's long-range shot threat.

This is exactly the purpose of Liverpool's adjustment of tactics.

So he passed the ball shortly to the left side in front of the penalty area. Eriksen saw Modric coming to his front when he stopped the ball. Eriksen knocked the ball to his left foot, and then passed the ball diagonally to the front of the left foot. After getting the ball, he quickly stepped forward!

Modric turned around and looked at it, quickly ran to Sane, who cut inside, and passed the ball to Eriksen's running line in front of the penalty area line.

Ramos immediately took the defense, Varane guarded Lewandowski in close contact, Eriksen watched the fire, and passed the ball with his left foot arch. The football rolled 5 yards in front of Varane to the right rib of the penalty area!

Varane turned his head and looked at it. The picture that caught his eyes decisively made the action of shoveling and blocking, but it was too late!

Mbappe came in a strong position, and without making any adjustments, he directly shot and shot!

The football flew straight to the top of the near corner of the goal like a cannonball, and the upper right corner of the goal!

Even Navas made a lightning save when he moved to the near corner of the goal, but he still couldn't touch the football.

It's so fast!

The moment the football flew into the goal, the fans of the home team of the Bernabeu Stadium were silent in the stands!

The Red Army fans seemed to be in a crazy carnival!

Mbappe turned around and rushed to the sidelines, spreading his arms to look up at the Reds fans in the stands!

The feeling of scoring at the Bernabeu is always special.

The expressions of Real Madrid's generals became a little ugly, and Ronaldo couldn't hide his disappointment, but he rubbed his face and walked to the center circle to prepare for the kickoff.

Zidane frowned even deeper.

"Mbappe scored a goal! Liverpool equalized the score!

After continuous long shots in front of the penalty area to create threats, Liverpool finally forced Real Madrid to adjust their defensive strategy, but just as Real Madrid adjusted, they immediately penetrated and passed through Real Madrid's penalty area!

Eriksen made a wonderful pass in front of the penalty area and passed directly. Mbappe made an inward cut in the run and followed up and sent the ball into Real Madrid's goal!

Real Madrid's two-goal lead is gone!

And they now give Liverpool a away goal advantage!

Defending champion Liverpool is still the king of Europe after all!

Now the game is starting to become difficult against Real Madrid, and Liverpool has a good advantage. Even if they turn to defensive counterattack now, Real Madrid can only bite the bullet and attack!

The score became 2:2.

There are less than 5 minutes left before the end of the first half."

After Mbappe scored, Situ Yunbing punched into the air and roared into the field!

Liverpool is absolutely stable after this goal is made!

At least he has already got the most basic result he wants in this game!

As long as Real Madrid is restricted from scoring, Liverpool can definitely accept taking away a draw!

After the Red Army generals celebrated, Situ Yunbing made a gesture to them to tighten their formation and strengthen their defense.

He doesn't want another accident before the end of the first half, at least Liverpool must not concede the goal!

Real Madrid was obviously a little anxious after kicking off. When Asensio made a 45-degree cross from the wing, Benzema and Ronaldo were not in the penalty area!

Seeing that the situation was stable, Van Dijk missed the ball and let the ball bounce from the left rib of the penalty area and flew out of the baseline.

Liverpool took the initiative to slow down, and then organized an offensive slowly to consume Real Madrid.

Before the end of the first half, Liverpool launched a fast break, and Sane quickly dribbled the ball from the left, and when he collided with Eriksen to break through Kavajal, he was raised and hit the chin and fell to the ground.

The referee awarded Kavajal the foul and showed him a yellow card.

Kavajal explained that he did not deliberately stop Sane, but just ran and turned around and turned unintentionally, but the referee did not listen.

Sane personally took the free kick. He passed the ball outside the penalty area near the baseline area and hurled it to the back point of the penalty area, causing Arnold, who unexpectedly appeared in the football landing point.

Arnold volleyed directly to the ball, but the ball was flawed!

The football flew into the stands.

At the same time, the referee blew the whistle to the end of the first half.

Situ Yunbing turned around and walked towards the player channel as usual, but Zidane looked solemn.

Real Madrid fans in the stands showed worries. Liverpool and Real Madrid played good goals in half of the first half, but Liverpool scored away goals, which was a very fatal blow to Real Madrid!

Can we re-establish the lead in the second half?

They don't know!

Looking at Zidane's performance in coaching Real Madrid in the past three years, it seems that he has never performed a comeback in adversity, which will undoubtedly make Real Madrid fans even more worried.

After Situ Yunbing returned to the locker room, he clapped the Liverpool generals. After attracting their attention, Situ Yunbing began to make adjustments on the tactical board.

He wants to make a fuss based on the yellow card on Kavajal in the last moment of the first half.

Everyone should remember the history of Carvajal giving away points in the penalty area in the Champions League final that year. Perhaps from the perspective of strength, Carvajal is definitely the top ten full-back in the world football world, but his mentality control seems not ideal, and it is easy to explode on the court.

Whether it is his frivolous behavior when he first debuted, or his sometimes almost out of control when facing Liverpool, he is ultimately another hidden danger on Real Madrid's defense line.

Originally, Situ Yunbing thought that Ramos might be easier to explode, but today's first half Ramos' performance was top-notch, and his meritorious performance with at least two clearances would definitely add a lot of points to him.

The Red Army generals listened carefully to Situ Yunbing's arrangement of tactics for the second half.

In addition to offense, certain adjustments have been made in defense.
