Tired, **** tired!

This is Ibrahimovic's biggest feeling at this moment.

His stamina has been almost exhausted, although it is only seventy minutes now, it is really almost exhausted.

But he still kept walking back and forth on the court, sometimes even running.

Not because he was hardworking, but because he was worried that as long as he stopped, he would never be able to run again.

Those **** legs trembled as long as they tried hard. He really doubted how long he could hold on.

This is the first time in his life he has played in the Champions League final, and it is also the best Champions League season in his career.

He debuted in Malmö, Sweden, became famous in Ajax, The Netherlands, and Juventus, rising in Italy. He established his position as the world's number one center in Inter Milan, and then switched to Barcelona at an amazing price, but after a season, he was dingy Was expelled from the Nou Camp.

Ibrahimović has won countless honors in his life, league championships, cup championships, he almost got soft.

But it is the Champions League alone, he has passed by again and again.

As a Swedish national and limited by the national team, he is destined to miss the international competition in his life.

The World Cup, the European Cup, and the Confederations Cup have nothing to do with him.

Therefore, he attaches great importance to the Champions League.

Ironically, everyone has always said that he is the soft-footed shrimp of the Champions League!

The transfer from Ajax to Juventus was in the last glorious period of Serie A. The old women were one of the strongest teams in Europe at the time. Ibrahimovic was eager to play in Turin. Go to the top of Europe.

Who would have thought that two years later, when the phone broke out, Juventus was fined and downgraded.

Ibrahimovic was unwilling to follow Juventus and sink into Serie B, so he switched to Inter Milan.

The Nerazzurri were the team that Italy had the most hope of making a big game in Europe at the time, and Moratti also promised himself that Inter Milan would go for the European championship.

In fact, in those few years, Inter Milan's investment was quite large and the overall strength was also very strong.

But from the Champions League, it is still a bit worse.

In Mourinho's first year, the team continued to be invincible in Serie A, but in the Champions League, it still failed to make a breakthrough. It stopped in the round of 16 and was completely defeated by Manchester United.

This disappointed Ibrahimović!

Because as he grows older year after year, he is getting farther and farther away from the goal of the Champions League, he feels scared!

Always arrogant and confident, he is afraid that he will end his career with a lifelong regret!

At this time, just in the European arena, with an unprecedented huge advantage, Barcelona, ​​who swept the entire Europa and won the Triple Crown, extended an olive branch to him, hoping to bring him to the Nou Camp at an amazing price.

Guardiola promised that Ibrahimovic will be successful in the Nou Camp!

It should be easier to win the Champions League in Barcelona than in Inter Milan, right?

Therefore, Ibrahimović resolutely chose Spain!

Ironically, in the first season after he left Inter Milan, Mourinho's team won the triple crown, including Ibrahimovic's dream of European championship!

In contrast, Ibrahimovic encountered an unprecedented professional crisis in Barcelona.

That was the lowest point of his career!

He was so regretful that his intestines were green, and he even wanted to slap himself a few times.

But in the world, where is the regret medicine to take?

If you just regret it, that's it, and more importantly, question it.

As soon as Ibrahimovic left Inter Milan, Inter Milan won the Champions League. As soon as he joined Barcelona, ​​Barcelona immediately experienced a tactical crisis. What does this mean?

It couldn't be easier!

This Swedish center is a tactical cancer!

This statement appeared in newspapers more than once, in the mouths of fans, and in the ears of Ibrahimovic.

He needs help, but at this time, Barcelona wanted him to transfer, but Guardiola told him, how can we continue?

I'm going to your mother to continue!

I'm not playing anymore!

Galliani of Milan wants to get Ibrahimovic, but his condition is to suppress the transfer fee and cut his salary significantly!

But this obviously hurts Ibrahimovic's self-esteem too much!

At this time, Southampton, who had just been acquired, came to the door. Young Master Huan went to Barcelona to talk in person and was humiliated by the Barcelona management.

This makes Ibrahimovic feel a strong sincerity!

More importantly, Young Master Huan promised to build a competitive team around Ibrahimovic, and it will rise strongly in the next few years!

Ibrahimovic made a crazy decision, he chose Southampton!

In the eyes of everyone at the time, it was crazy!

The world's top three superstars, the number one center, have joined an England third division team?

Isn't this crazy?

But four years have passed. Now, who would question Ibrahimovic's decision back then?

As the number one star in the team, he led Southampton all the way from the League of Legends, promoted every year and entered the Premier League. In the first season, he won the Premier League championship as a promoted horse, and in the second season Successfully defended the league championship again.

With this report card, who would dare to say that Ibrahimovic was wrong to join the Saints?

More importantly, when Southampton participated in the Champions League for the first time, it miraculously reached the Champions League final!

This surprised Ibrahimovic as never before!

He is eager to win the Champions League, he is almost crazy!

Therefore, in this game, he tried his best, he did not hesitate to run, and even let him retire on the spot after the game, it doesn't matter.

Because he knows that this is his last chance!

He was so tired that he seemed to fall down anytime and anywhere, but whenever he turned his head and looked at the Saint-Bolade Cup on the sidelines at the exit of the player channel, his heart gushed out again. A force.

This last regret is left in his career, and he is eager to make up for it by himself!

But Atletico Madrid, the team that can reach the Champions League final, is it a fuel-efficient lamp?

Playing as a Swedish center for so many years, Atletico Madrid's defensive tactics in this game are perfect.

Although there are few counterattacks and few threatening offenses, they are indeed quite unique in defending Southampton's offense, and they hardly give the Saints too many opportunities.

Even if the two players changed their two players, their play styles were adjusted to some extent, but they still failed to break the deadlock.

After all, this is the Champions League final!

Ibrahimović felt that he was going to die!

However, that Argentine dwarf, oh, yes, the guy named Otamendi is still fighting spirit.

That guy is really a fighter, and his fighting ability is amazing!

Even as an opponent, even if his height is more than ten centimeters higher than him, Ibrahimovic still has no way to guard against him.

What's more, there is an experienced Godin behind him.

The two of them must have focused on Ibrahimovic, so the defense is very targeted.

This makes the Swedish center admire and resent.

Niangxipi, I finally hoped for a Champions League final. How could they be ruined by them?

Think of a way, you must find a way to crack their defense!

How to break it?

After adjusting the team's tactics, Atletico Madrid's tactics look more like four one four one.

The defensive line has not changed much. The midfielder is behind Krichoviak, and Isco and Cork are in front of him.

The presence of these two players proves that Atletico Madrid's determination to strike back and attack is still there!

The two wings are Griezmann and Tevez. Griezmann is more forward and leaning to the right, while Tevez is more in-cut in the Southampton midfield and defense line. between.

Diego Costa plays a single forward, but his position is a bit to the right.

This is estimated to have a certain relationship with the Atletico Madrid counterattack often launching a long diagonal pass to find the right.

David Alaba is under great defensive pressure on this side, and it is impossible to provide offensive support to Hazard in front.

On the other hand, Southampton is more like a four-two tactic.

The defensive line is also the same, with two midfield players, Tonic Ross is slightly behind, and James Rodriguez is more forward, and the position is more free.

Hazard on the left, Sanchez on the right, Ibrahimovic as the center, Suarez cruising around him.

Although the Southampton midfield is much thinner, the ball is still controlled at the feet of Southampton.

Therefore, the key question now is not how to get the ball back, but how to break the opponent's defense!

With this tactic of Atletico Madrid, there will often be a defensive formation of nine players in the backcourt, with Diego Costa in front. This defense is very hierarchical and solid.

If you want to break, you must disrupt their defense!

Chaos is a chance!

Thinking of this, Ibrahimovic immediately made a decision.

"Louis!" The Swedish center called Suarez.

When the Uruguayan came over, he made a gesture.

The latter immediately understood, nodded and said: "Understood!" Then he ran away.

The Swedish center also squinted at Tonikros in the distance and signaled that he would withdraw.

The German midfielder also immediately understood, and informed James Rodriguez and his teammates in the back line.

Soon, Southampton knew about it, and Ibrahimovic decided to expand the scope of his activities and withdrew to catch the ball.

Now it seems that both teams are playing single midfielders, one is Criccioviak and the other is Tonick Ross.

But the tactics of the two teams are completely different.

It is difficult for Atletico Madrid to take the forward retracement route ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Because Diego Costa retreats, Southampton's double central defenders can follow one up.

In fact, Varane often followed Diego Costa's retracement and pressed forward.

This makes it difficult for Diego Costa to make a difference.

But Southampton is different.

Ibrahimovic withdrew, Suarez immediately pushed forward.

And the two are very close.

Just like this time, Ibrahimovic saw the backcourt find an effective opportunity to advance, and immediately retreated and raised his hand for the ball.

His route was biased to the left, trying to avoid Krichowiak’s defense zone.

So, Suarez was very smart and immediately went up to the center, and his position happened to be at the intersection of the opponent's two central defenders and the midfielder.

At this moment, Atletico Madrid players have a headache, how to fix it?

With Suarez's personal ability, one-on-one, plus a Sanchez who is always killing from the right, two-on-two, Atletico Madrid is definitely at a disadvantage, nothing said!

So, in the end, Atletico Madrid made a decisive decision. Krichoviak went to look at Ibrahimovic. The two central defenders did not dare to move, and maintained a tight formation with Felipe, always paying attention to the attacking direction of the Saints.

After the ball passed back and forth in the backcourt, seeing no chance, it passed back to goalkeeper Neuer.

Neuer raised his head, just in time to see Ibrahimovic withdraw and raise his hand for the ball.

Therefore, the German goalkeeper did not hesitate to pass the ball to the front court with a big foot.

This looks more like a way out of nowhere.

But the problem is that when the ball reaches the frontcourt, the situation is different!
