Football: After listening to the advice, I became the strongest free man.

Chapter 27 Zidane’s first reaction was Bai Ran

Because Bai Ran was distracted when Zidane was talking, so even now that Zidane has turned around and left, Bai Ran is still immersed in his own world.

He didn't notice at all that he had already entered the league's squad!

The teammates all looked at Bai Ran with surprise, but he was the only one with a confused face.

what's the situation?

It’s like a dream!

Although only three of the seven substitutes have a chance to play, I am very satisfied with this opportunity!

After learning the news, Bai Ran looked at Zidane's back from a distance.

So tall and majestic!

A fire lit up in his heart.

The players trained as usual the day before the game, but the training volume was lower than usual in order to preserve their physical strength during the game.

Soon came the second day of competition.

The opening game of the league is Real Madrid's second team Castilla playing against Ebro at home.

Ebro is a relegation team in Segunda B, not a strong team.

Even for Castilla, this is a weak team that has no power to fight back.

At the press conference before the game, Zidane accepted interviews from reporters as usual.

"What are your expectations for the new season?"

Zidane spoke eloquently when faced with questions.

"Our goal has always been to be number one. This is my way of doing things and it is also the tradition of Real Madrid."

"Obviously my players support that goal and I think they're ready for it."

Reporters admire Zidane's domineering attitude very much. This kind of attitude of giving up others has been undoubtedly revealed since the beginning of his playing career.

The reporter continued to ask: "Today's opponent is Ebro, whose overall strength is not as good as Castilla. In your eyes, can the game against a weak team be ignored?"

Upon hearing this question, Zidane's expression became serious and he shook his head.

"Every opponent deserves our respect and every game deserves our best effort."

"We don't take it lightly, football is round and anything can happen."

"Also, please don't call any team a weak team in the future."

"That's all I have to say, that's it for today."

Even though the reporters swarming behind him were still asking questions, Zidane had already turned around and left the press conference.

They also want to know if the new young player Bai Ran performed well in the friendly match and will see him today!

However, as reporters, they also know that 99% of questions about tactics like this will not be answered directly before the game...

From Zidane's conversation, it is not difficult to see his respect for his opponents.

This is why Real Madrid's second team is so strong and popular.

In the Di Stefano Stadium, most of the fans were already seated, waiting for the game to start.

The home stadium has a capacity of about 9,000 people, but the attendance rate today was so high.

In just one Segunda B league game, nearly 5,000 people came to watch the game.

Of course, most of them are local Madrid fans.

In the visiting team area, there were also hundreds of fanatical fans who came to cheer for Ebro.

They faced the mighty home team fans, and their momentum was not lost at all. There were still supporters carrying big flags and waving them in the air, showing the faith in their hearts.

Even a little-known team like Ebro has so many die-hard followers. This is the European football culture!

In comparison, how far can China's football culture reach?

There are so few football enthusiasts that the ratio is simply unsightly!

Just like that, more than half of them are champion fans.

If you win, then I am your fan. If you lose, then I will sneer at you more than anyone else. At worst, I will change my fans to another team!

Pirated jerseys are not expensive anyway!

Moreover, if a small township-level team like Ebro does not perform well in China, it will never have any supporters.

It is undeniable that in Europe, any small team will have fanatical fans to support it. The gap between China and China is obvious.

Soon, the player channel opened.

Players from both teams lined up to walk out of the stadium to the applause and cheers of the fans!

The atmosphere at the scene was very lively!

The referee team stood in the center of the court, and the players on the left and right sides had their hands behind their backs, adjusting their breathing and getting ready for the game.

After a while, the national anthem of the bullfighting country rang through the stadium. The solemn and sacred feeling made everyone couldn't help but hum along.

At this time, a well-known domestic commentator was also sitting in the studio, taking advantage of this moment to introduce the lineup of players for today's game.

By the time the introductions were completed, both sides had basically started their formations.

Ebro knew that he was not strong enough today, so he set up a 541 iron barrel array, which is also the legendary "arrangement of the bus".

The tactics are also very simple. All players defend, rush to the penalty area, and steal fiercely.

From the beginning, they were not trying to win the game!

A draw is the best result.

On the other hand, Real Madrid still used the classic 433 high-position press, with both wings flying together.

Rodriguez and Gomez formed a double wing on the wing, ready to go, and high center Gonzalez was placed in the middle.

As the referee blows his whistle, the game begins!

"Good goal! The ball was transferred to Real Madrid. Rodriguez broke through quickly and he went in!"

"Ah! It's a pity that the cross was pushed out by the densely positioned defensive players!"

"Gomez found space on the right and hit the wall with Hermoso. Beautiful!"

"Hit the door!"

"It hit the defensive player, and the referee indicated that it was a touchline ball!"

The tone of the commentary was very exciting and the scene was very exciting. The game was great to watch, but the only drawback was that there were no goals!

The fans on the sidelines cheered one after another.

Real Madrid launched an indiscriminate offensive from the beginning and took the absolute initiative.

It has to be said that Ebro's resilience is simply too strong.

Faced with this almost overwhelming advantage, they actually haven't conceded a goal yet.

In their 541 formation, almost "5" and "4" are in their own penalty area!

There is also a "1" running in the frontcourt, which is the remaining fire. After all, if the opponent makes a mistake and has the opportunity to score, they are still happy to accept it.

With this kind of tactic, anyone who comes can only watch the ball and sigh!

"Hermoso, try the long shot!"

"Shoot when you have the chance, don't be too delicate in the penalty area!"

Zidane was wearing a black suit, with one hand in his pocket and the other pointing at the court.

Obviously, halftime is about to end, and the score is still 0-0, which makes Real Madrid's second team coach Zidane a little anxious.

This situation cannot continue.

The opponent's defense is too tight, and this trend must mean that Castilla's side is losing energy faster.

The first half seemed to be a crushing and overpowering game.

But the further back you get in the second half, the harder it becomes to play!

When the attack is fruitless, the physical exertion is too serious, and mistakes will definitely occur. Even if the opponent is given a chance to seize it, the consequences will be unbearable.

Changes must be made immediately!

Thinking of this, Zidane's first reaction... was to look to the sidelines.

That Asian face, a kid from China.

Bai Ran!
