Crystal Palace has a strong sense of defensive layering, and Mourinho's team doesn't have many good solutions.

In the 6th minute, Ronaldo dribbled the ball from the left, changed directions two or three times and got rid of Marjo. Melo blocked the goal and started a long shot with more than 30 meters away from the goal. There was no threat and the ball missed the goal.

When Ronaldo was in Manchester United's early days, his footwork was very delicate and his breakthrough ability was very strong, but his style has changed over the years. It is really true that fans gave him the nickname "shotman". If he chose to break through the wing, he had no problem. The key is that he is not like this now. He basically dribbles inward and cuts in when he has the chance. He will definitely shoot at the bottom of the wing. He uses fewer and fewer tricks at the bottom of the wing.

Another thing to guard against him is running position. After passing the ball, he has a very strong ability to move in the penalty area. Because the center can cover him, he can often use his super explosive power and shooting skills to make his opponent helpless.

This shot was Ronaldo's first shot in this game. It didn't look very outstanding, and he shook his head dissatisfiedly.

"Stay on him! Hold on to him! Don't let him shoot!" Wensheng stood on the sidelines and shouted loudly, expressing dissatisfaction with Melo and the others.

If Ronaldo said that his skills are certainly not as good as Messi, but Wensheng never thought that Ronaldo was easier to deal with than Messi. He always said that Ronaldo and Messi are of the same level, which is a complete truth.

To some extent, Ronaldo is more difficult to deal with than Messi, because this guy is just a pure shot, and the area within 40 meters is basically his territory, with shooting in the penalty area and shooting outside the penalty area as well.

In Real Madrid, Ronaldo no longer has any assist tasks. Under Mourinho, he only has one task - just score a goal, and his teammates do the things he can create opportunities.

Marking him is a very troublesome thing for any team, because he may not be able to do anything now, and it is difficult for defensive players to keep enough attention to holding the ball without the ball in the changing situation.

On the other hand, Messi still undertakes extremely strong breakthrough tasks and opportunities creation tasks, and sometimes he stays away from the penalty area.

Messi can suppress it with a crazy bus. Data shows that Messi scored much less goals in the Champions League knockout stage than Ronaldo. Why is this happening? Because teams in the knockout stage will pay more attention to defense, and the bus will be very effective against players who are good at defending for breakthroughs.

For players like Ronaldo, who have excellent shooting distances and jumping well, it is of course useful to play a bus, but the effect is definitely not as easy as defending Messi.

No matter what others think, Wen Sheng has studied Messi and defended Messi, so he thinks that.

So when he saw Ronaldo break through to Marjora and Melo completed a long shot, he quickly reminded his players to pay attention.

The game continues.

In the 10th minute, Crystal Palace got a good counterattack opportunity.

Tarabut held the ball on the right and ran wildly. His technical ability was indeed quite good. Not only did he pass Coentrane, but he also passed Khedira, who is in good shape now. But sometimes this kid's head is twisted and he is dead!

Finally, when Ramos came up, he became timid again and fired an empty cannon outside the penalty area like Ronaldo!

Wen Sheng couldn't stop shaking his head.

Mkhitaryan has a strong team awareness compared to Tarabut, but the reason why Wensheng does not use Mkhitaryan is that it is difficult for Vardy to play a good fulcrum role in the frontcourt. Pepe and Ramos are both aggressive central defenders. It is undoubtedly quite difficult for Vardy to get the ball from behind under their defense.

Tarabut's breakthrough ability and explosive power are stronger than Mkhitaryan. The team does not need Mkhitaryan's organization to choose to fight back, but also needs a single man like Tarabut to disrupt the situation.

The game between the two sides was not very intense, mainly because Crystal Palace's tactical style of play was more focused on the word "slow". The midfielder always controlled the ball as much as possible instead of blindly giving up the ball. After playing for more than 20 minutes, Real Madrid had an open advantage, but they actually only completed 4 shots. Crystal Palace's two central defenders Benatia and McCarthy had excellent defense, and their cross defense was very good, while Melo gave enough protection in the penalty area.

"It's this attack that is so good..." Wen Sheng couldn't describe it.

Crystal Palace actually has many opportunities to control the ball forward, but there are too few people invested in the key attack, with many breakthrough mistakes and forward passes, resulting in Crystal Palace only completing two shots in total during this period.

Mourinho has never played against Wensheng, and Real Madrid has never played against Crystal Palace.

After the tests over the past period of time, Mourinho has realized that the Crystal Palace, which lacks De Bruyne, is still quite difficult to deal with.

He even had no doubt that if De Bruyne existed, Crystal Palace would have dared to fight against Real Madrid.

"Crystal Palace has a good defense, and the players' ability to control the ball is still very strong, but they are playing too badly in the offense. Maybe they shouldn't hold on to the idea of ​​counterattacking!" In the live broadcast room, Leinker was not very satisfied with Crystal Palace's offensive organization during this period.

The defense is calm. Except for Taivo's poor form, Callejon and Aberoa have completed crosses from this side many times, the defensive players in other positions in Crystal Palace are not bad, and relying on the joint defense mode to make Real Madrid's offense unsuccessful.

But this is the home court of Crystal Palace. In Leinker's opinion, Crystal Palace should have to determine a certain advantage at home, otherwise it may be very difficult to get to the Bernabeu.

"Daniel is indeed a bit conservative!" Ian Wright didn't say anything good about Wen Sheng.

"It's really okay to play defense, but they have a certain amount of control in the midfield and should not play like this. They need to put pressure on their opponents at the right time. With such a way of playing, it's hard to ensure that the team's defense will not go wrong!" Ian Wright analyzed.

......

"The competition is so boring!" Ren Xing shouted in the group, "Shushan Guest, your little Ding Ding may really not be able to save it!"

"You are anxious! This period of time has been a test! Do you understand the test?! When my emperor finds his feelings, he will definitely attack it!" Zhang Liang, a slut in Shushan, replied.

"It's no chance to attack! Kaka's condition is so bad!" Some netizens sighed.

"That's right, Kaka didn't make much breakthrough! The ball under his feet was cut by Kante and Melo several times! If De Bruyne had probably made a few beautiful counterattacks!" The netizen agreed.

"Haha, the key is that De Bruyne is not here!" Zhang Liang slapped a smile on his face.

"Don't be proud. The team also has Stroman and Benatia, they can all play long passes!" another netizen said.

If we follow the trajectory of our previous life, Benatia is also a super strong player. It is not his strength to launch an attack from the back line at all, but since Wensheng introduced him, he has been encouraging him to pass long in the back court. This kind of attacking in the back court is simply a magic weapon for teams that care about their heads and ignore their butts. The standard configuration on the front line of Crystal Palace is fast speed.

Because Benatia actually has a certain ability to pass long and can directly hit the front line, of course, this offensive mode still requires timing, which is a richness of the team's offensive tactics.

"By the way, with the strength of Crystal Palace, it may be difficult to achieve great success in the Champions League. This game will consume too much energy. I think it's better to give up and focus on the league!" Zhang Liang said in his heart.

This sentence won the approval of many netizens in the group. When they first drew Real Madrid, they were wailing. Now the team's core de Bruyne is still injured, and everyone is even more worried about Wen Sheng.
