Chapter 4 The Core of the Past
Gago originally wanted to rely on his organizational ability to connect the team's midfield to fight against the world's top midfielder on the main side, but at halftime, he announced his failure without tacit cooperation.
However, no wonder he is a genius in this matter. No matter how talented he is, it cannot be solved in a short time. Zidane took half a year to integrate into the team at Real Madrid.
Although Gago feels that he is not bad, he does not have infinite space, such as a virtual space that makes people unlimitedly proficient. The unparalleled things that can command the entire team in one or two days are only present in Qidian Novels.
After thinking about this, Gago decided to go alone. Seeing that the main side was leading by three goals, the defense line was a little loose. He dribbled the ball forward directly, and Gago used his personal ability to pull the defense line apart after several forwards. So as soon as he saw him dribbled the ball again, several people in the midfield immediately started to take action.
Guti came forward. After several observations before, the Fourteenth Master knew that it was impossible to cut the ball from Gago's feet with his own ability, so he did not step down rashly. He just stood firmly at his position, clearly trying to pass the ball at will and break through, but there was no goal!
However, Gago did not feel any pressure on Guti's position. It turns out that no matter how hard the Fourteenth Master tried, his defense was still 5. He drove the ball forward and Gago directly ate it with speed. However, at this time, Gago's position had left the middle and moved closer to the left. Beckham saw Gago entering his defensive range, and just broke through Guti, the ball was a bit big, and he directly slipped to break the ball.
However, Gago showed his excellent ball control at this time. He dunked his right foot and pulled his arch back, avoiding Beckham's side tackle. Then he rushed into the penalty area along the left side near the middle. At this time, Robinho opened the gap for him well and took Ramos away from the front of the left side of the penalty area.
At this time, Emerson rushed up again, but now he is not in Rome and Juventus' period. The Jaguar, whose peak period has passed, was lightly stopped and changed direction and broke through.
At this time, Gago had already reached the left area of the front of the penalty area. Ramos, who was supposed to defend this area, was restrained by Robinho. Cannavaro immediately made up when he saw this. At the same time, Elgra stood in the position behind him to prevent Gago from crossing from the bottom.
Seeing the new World Footballer coming up, Gago observed the situation in the penalty area. Robinho and Higuain were entangled by Ramos and Carlos, and the chance of passing the ball was not very good. Casano was wandering around the top of the penalty area, and beside him was Emerson who came back to defend. In the rear, Marcelo had already rushed up at high speed and was ready to receive his pass.
Gago had no fear when facing Cannavaro, and directly broke through with his right foot on the penalty area line toward the bottom line. At this time, Robinho also came to pick up the ball, and it seemed that he was preparing to cooperate with two and one.
"It's indeed down."
As soon as Elgra saw Gago's actions, he knew that his judgment was correct, so he came forward directly. He prepared to close the door with Cannavaro and block Gago, so that this ignorant boy could know the power of the world's top central defender.
Seeing Gago enter the encirclement, Casano left his former teammate Emerson and made a breakthrough in the middle to prepare to respond to Gago's cross. Higuain was also preparing to occupy a strong position and prepare to encircle the first point.
However, at this moment, before Cannavaro and Elgra closed the door, Gago suddenly stopped. He did not continue to break forward, but cut in the middle along the penalty area line, and also observed Casillas's position. He found that in order to prevent Gago from shooting closer to the left, he stood closer to the left.
After Emerson was thrown away by Casano, he took the initiative to chase into the penalty area. This made the defense in the middle suddenly empty and could break into the penalty area at any time. Seeing Gago's inward cut, he secretly called out in his heart. He quickly turned around and prepared to block Gago's breakthrough.
However, unexpectedly, Gago did not continue to break through, but shot directly while running. This kick was made with his usual right foot, so the quality of the shot was very high, and he flew straight to the upper right corner of the goal. Although Cassie reacted quickly, the ball drifted out an arc, avoiding his left hand, and drilled into the dead corner between the pillar and the crossbar.
“Good.”
Seeing Gago's goal in, Higuain rushed over happily and hugged him. Then Casano and Robinho, who were close to each other, also gathered together to celebrate.
Cassie was helpless and picked up the ball from the goal for the first time, and kicked it hard towards the midfield with a depressed kick.
At this time, Capello on the sidelines was a little surprised. The decisive attack in the moment just now reminded him of Redondo.
In 1996, Capello made Real Madrid his first entry into Real Madrid. He set Redondo as the core of the midfield and used a 4-1-3-2 formation to allow the captain of Real Madrid to carry the banner of midfield offense and defense alone. Redondo did not disappoint his expectations, connecting Real Madrid's front and back courts alone, allowing Capello, who made the first move to Real Madrid, to lead the team to win the league championship and the King's Cup.
At that time, when Real Madrid was in a deadlock, Redondo dribbled the ball forward and broke through the opponent's defense line. At that time, the peak era of the Argentine prince began. In the next four years, Real Madrid, with Redondo as the core, won two league championships and two Champions League championships, allowing Real Madrid to win the title of "Best Club of the Twentieth Century" with an undisputed advantage.
After Capello's thoughts returned from his memories, he looked at Gago and rearranged the formation of next season in his notebook. At the same time, he also wrote Gago's name on the starting lineup for the next round.
At this time, the main team who was broken through the goal felt very angry and launched an attack again to win a game. Unfortunately, Gago's performance just now greatly boosted the morale of the substitute side. Diarra and Garcia were both famous defensive players, and used their whole body to start sweeping the midfield. It made it difficult for the main team to break through and pass the ball. If there is no advantage in the midfield, the forward naturally won't get any chance.
Gago's super predictive ability divides Guti, who is the most threatening pass, into the main formation. Every time the ball passed to him is either cut off by him in advance or destroyed. This time, no matter how Guti breaks through, he just won't let the ball pass. Guti is the front midfielder on the court, and the offense on the court is basically initiated by his pass. Once he is blocked, the contact between the entire midfield and the frontcourt of the main side is cut off.
Beckham's long pass efficiency alone was still too low. As a last resort, Raul retreated and began to replace Guti to get the ball more, and then shot himself or made a ball for Fanny in the penalty area. However, the defense target was obvious in this way, and neither side had any good opportunities in the next time.
After the assistant referee on the field blew the whistle at the end of the first half, Gago couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He took a bottle of water and drank it. At this time, Marcelo and Higuain surrounded him and began to talk about his goal just now.
"Feer, you're so beautiful just now. You've had three players in a row in the midfield. Your dribbling skills are no worse than those of the forward."
Marcelo praised Gago very exaggeratedly, but Higuain on the side felt a little embarrassed.
"Don't worry about watermelon, not every single shot can be scored."
Knowing that Higuain was blaming himself for wasting the wonderful story just now, Gago said without caring about it
"Yes, if you feel guilty, you'll score two goals in the second half to tie the score."
Marcelo comforted him very "kindly", but his words made Gago and Xiao Yangu's eyes turn white. Just based on the situation in the first half, it would be nice to score another goal. In the second half, it would definitely be necessary to strengthen the defense against Gago. With their team's lack of tacit cooperation, they may have to parry and not have the power to fight back.
At this time, Diyala and Robinho of their team came over, so Gago and the others naturally would not refuse. The five people talked about the tactics of the second half. Under Gago's deliberateness, the five people were already talking and laughing.
At this moment, Capello summoned everyone again and said something that broke the five of them.
"In the second half, Fair and Robbie, Diyala and Ferreira, David and Antonio exchanged!"
"Don't we were ruthlessly broken up and the tactics could not be implemented."
After hearing this, Xiao Ma cursed directly in Gago's ear. But he didn't dare to speak loudly. The iron-fisted coach Capello has a reputation and no good ending in confronting him. Even the aliens Ronaldo and Beckham were pressed tightly on the bench by him. With him, the unknown man, if he dares to say something more, he will be banned immediately indefinitely.
Gago didn't dare to say anything more, and changed into a yellow vest, and he began to stand on the court. After changing three people, the formation immediately changed. 4-2-3-1, which is Real Madrid's main formation this season, with two midfielders protecting the midfield, and three forwards and centers are responsible for scoring goals.
After the kickoff, Gago and Diyala were at least not unfamiliar with each other after half-game. Although Diyala, who is black and hard, is not very good at offensive ability, his defense is probably in the top three in the entire Real Madrid. He suddenly cut Casano's ball and passed it to Gago.
Gago is not sticking to the ball, after all, it is not a single-middle formation. He started to use passes to connect to the midfield. He knew that the biggest problem of Real Madrid this season was the chaos in the midfield. He bought him to sort out the midfield in order to replace Zidane. However, Gago is not as good as Qi Tuzi now. At that time, Boske sacrificed half a season to help Qi Tuzi integrate into the team.
Gago doesn't believe Capello will sacrifice the second half of the season for him. Not to mention that he is "Redondo II", even Redondo won the position of core midfielder two years later.
In the next half, Gago tried his best to organize Real Madrid's midfield, but it was the first time after all, and everyone was unfamiliar with him, and they made some mistakes in passing and receiving the ball. However, it doesn't matter if there are any mistakes. The most important thing is to adjust your style of play as soon as possible to integrate into Real Madrid's formation.
Capello on the sidelines saw Gago's performance and nodded slightly. Although after Gago came on the court, the midfield attack was not as smooth as Emerson's time, it was just a matter of cooperation. As long as there was more time, it would naturally be solved. Capello was satisfied that Real Madrid's midfielder was no longer so chaotic after Gago joined.
This season, due to Capello, Emerson, who had been chasing Real Madrid for two years, finally arrived at Real Madrid after his summons. However, it turns out that he is no longer the "Java" that Real Madrid fans have always expected. His slowness makes people feel that he is too old, and the booing to him at home has never stopped. Even the players on the court began to doubt his core position in the organization, resulting in various chaos in the midfield.
Now that Gago is here, although he can still see his immatureness, judging from the half-game just now, his talent is not questionable. Real Madrid's generals also hope that he can grow into the second "Redondo" and take over Zidane as the core position of Real Madrid's organization after replacing Zidane.
"Feer, don't worry, his talent doesn't need your worry."
Raul, in the frontcourt, saw the way Gago organized the dispatch, and vaguely saw the captain with long hair flying when he first joined the first team, sighed in his heart.
