Chapter 366 The King's Cup Game

Winning the league with Deportivo has made some worried Atletico Madrid fans feel at ease.

The team's substitute players are still very strong, and the quality of the players introduced by Gao Bo this season is quite good.

After this game, the time for the fifth round of the Copa del Rey has also been determined.

Atletico Madrid will first challenge Barcelona on December 20th, and then return to their home court on January 7th before playing against Barcelona in the second round.

In fact, when the results of the draw came out, the voice of "revenge" began to emerge from Barcelona.

In the league, Atletico Madrid beat Barcelona at home four to two, which obviously made the Catalan giants quite dissatisfied.

They sighed and waited for the league home to give Atletico Madrid a lesson.

After all, in these two or three seasons, Barcelona’s achievements have also made their mentality unprecedentedly expanded. The outside world calls Barcelona the Universe team, and Barcelona’s players also believe that their team is the world’s strongest team. Atletico Madrid has risen this season. I'm afraid it's still a long way from taking the scepter of Barcelona!

"We will go all out at home. Atletico Madrid has improved a lot this season, so we will face them!" Alves said in an interview.

"We will prove ourselves at home!" Pique is also a figure who likes to show up in the media.

The other Barcelona players did not speak out, but the words of Pique and Alves basically represent the position of the Barcelona players.

Although it is not stated clearly, everyone knows that Barcelona is waiting for revenge at home!

Can they succeed in revenge?

This will not be known until more than a week after boarding.

Before that, La Liga has to play another round of league.

On December 19th, in the sixteenth round of the league, Atletico Madrid challenged Málaga away.

The final result of the game was two to zero, and Atletico Madrid won away.

In this game Atletico Madrid adopted a 442 formation. Gao Bo let Diego Costa and Mane partner the striker. Diego Costa was at the forefront, Mane was behind him, and Griezmann returned to the midfield. The attacking hand inserted behind the name.

And Diego Costa is acting as a support center, creating opportunities for Mane and Griezmann.

This is when Gao Bo tried more offensive methods for the team. In the end, Mane and Griezmann also performed well. Griezmann scored a goal. Mane also dribbled the ball after the ball in the penalty area and hit the bottom line. Assist Modric scored.

After this game, Atletico Madrid's next game is the round of 16 of the Copa del Rey!

If it is a normal opponent, perhaps Gao Bo will consider rotation or something, but the opponent in this game is Barcelona, ​​and the time of the Copa del Rey is on December 22. After this game, The team will enter a short winter break, with about 13 days of rest adjustment time.

Therefore, whether it is the opponent of this game or the time of this game, Atletico Madrid can confidently send in the main lineup to play.

In this game, Aguero has not fully recovered from his injury, and Gao Bo does not intend to let him play. Therefore, Aguero has not entered the list of this game.

Reyes is on the big list, but Gao Bo does not intend to start Reyes, who has just recovered from injury. After all, he has not played for nearly two weeks and his state is not too stable.

In this game Gao Bo made a little change to the team's formation.

Griezman and Diego Costa continued to start, and Griezman went to the center, behind Diego Costa, as a ninth and a half player.

In midfield, Kanter and Mario Suarez's two defensive midfielders are stuck in the middle, while Modric and Raul Garcia are on the wings.

On the away game against Barcelona, ​​Gao Bo had to make some changes in the midfield. If he continues to follow the pattern of the previous game, Guardiola may not let Atletico Madrid retreat so easily in the Nou Camp.

Football matches change rapidly, and so does the tactics of the game.

Due to the different composition of the current personnel, Mane is very talented, but he is still a long way from Reyes. The characteristics of Diego Costa are also different from Aguero. Gao Bo naturally has to play a little bit in the game. Changed.

The tactics of the last game can be referred to, but the opponent is constantly changing, so Gao Bo is also seeking changes.

Modric looks thin, but his defensive hardness is also good, Raul Garcia can also provide enough defensive hardness, not to mention Kanter, Mario Suarea is also a muscle Players used in midfield.

Technically, facing the trio of Barcelona Xavi, Iniesta and Busquez, Atletico Madrid’s midfielders may be technically at a disadvantage at their feet, so Gao Bo intends to use two defensive midfielders to deal with Xavi and Iniesta's technical midfielder is combined.

In an away game, it is normal for Gao Bo to be cautious. Barcelona's weakness, Gao Bo, is very clear. Since Mourinho can use a muscular midfielder to deal with Xavi and Iniesta, why is Gao Bo not?

Moreover, Atletico Madrid's rapid offensive and defensive conversion is also very huge in terms of counterattack threats.

Atletico Madrid was originally playing oppressive football. Their frontcourt press and their fast passing were all to oppress the opponent and create space.

So Gao Bo is not at all worried that the team will not adapt to the fine-tuning of the tactics.

......

The match day soon arrived, when Guardiola pressed to Atletico Madrid's starting list, Guardiola immediately frowned.

Before, Catalan media said that Gao Bo was an imitator of tike-taka, but now it seems to be a complete joke.

This Gao Bo is not the same as Jose Mourinho.

Mourinho is utilitarian, but his tactical thinking is consistent.

And this Gao Bo looks a bit impermanent.

Before that, Atletico Madrid has always played a good-looking technical offensive football. Of course, Guardiola also summed up the match that Barcelona lost to Atletico Madrid in the league. Of course, Atletico Madrid also has weaknesses. Guardiola knows very well. This point, and when he was preparing to deal with Atletico Madrid at home against the weaknesses exposed by Atletico Madrid, Atletico Madrid actually changed at this time.

When Guardiola saw Kanter and Mario Suarez play, he knew that Atletico Madrid would not be easy to deal with.

In the visiting team locker room at Camp Nou~lightnovelpub.net~ Gao Bo also got Barcelona's starter.

Compared to Atletico Madrid, which has made many changes, Barcelona is still a complete and fixed lineup.

Goalkeeper Valdes.

The back line is Alves, Pique, Puyol, Maxwell.

Midfielder Booth, Xavi, Iniesta.

Strikers Messi, Villa, Pedro.

Despite being the same lineup, Barcelona's tactics are actually very flexible.

On the basis of overall ball possession, Barcelona will certainly have many changes.

Their penetration in the center, the breakthrough on both sides, and even the offense of the full back.

The methods are very diverse.

Facing this team at the Nou Camp is stressful for any team.
