Chapter 22 It's Not Chen Yingying's Superman
~~While there are more and more topics about the game where Argentina was finally reversed, Gago and Messi, the two people who were talked about the most, boarded the plane that night to Spain.
As a national player, the dilemma of loyalty and filial piety is their lifelong problem. After playing four qualifiers in more than half a month, Gago returned to Madrid to train again. Originally, he didn't feel it while playing the game, but as soon as he returned to Real Madrid, Gago felt his body exhausted.
It makes sense that something like fifa virus exists. In the team's training match, Gago felt that he was unable to do so for the first time. You should know that even if his physical fitness is not as good as a beast like Ramos, he is still a strong man in the whole team. However, just ordinary training makes him feel sore and soft. You can imagine how tired Gago is.
"Sure enough, I'm not a superman like Chen Yingxiong!"
Seeing this state in Gago's training game, Schuster is the most troublesome person, and the opponents in the next league are difficult to deal with. Espanyol is the second only to Barcelona in the Catalonia region. Due to the tension between Castia and Catalonia, this is destined to be a tough battle.
After playing this league, Real Madrid will usher in the third Champions League group stage at home in three days. Currently, Olympiacos, who is second only to them in Group C, will be a harder game than Espanyol. Schuster cannot give up in this game. In addition to this home court, there is another reason that as long as he wins this game, Real Madrid can basically ensure that they qualify in the group and have more energy to deal with their opponents in the league.
You should know that after playing Olympiacos at home, Real Madrid's next three opponents were more ruthless than the other, and they were the three teams in La Liga that were second only to their arch rivals Barcelona.
A Coruna, Valencia, Sevilla!
"Super Laco" has declined. For Real Madrid, this is a relatively easy opponent to deal with, but Valencia and Sevilla are just tough players who can bite a big piece of meat on Real Madrid if they are not careful. Valencia has been the victim of Real Madrid since the era of Coober. As one of the few La Liga powerhouses who use defensive counterattacks as traditional powerhouses, Valencia has the most experience in dealing with the top-heavy Real Madrid.
Sevilla has reached its peak since the founding of the club in recent seasons, with two consecutive championships in the League Cup. Last season, it was still a double champion. Sevilla's performance in recent years can be said to be able to break Real Madrid out.
After playing against these three opponents, Real Madrid will go away to challenge Olympiacos.
In other words, in the next two weeks, Real Madrid will play five games. Even more tragic than a weekly double game, Real Madrid will encounter it. However, there is no way, because the national team's league was suspended for three weeks, and now it will be made up for it in a short period of time. The same ending will be the same sooner or later.
Before the winter break ended, Real Madrid had always had such a situation in double games for a week. Gago almost fainted when he saw this schedule.
"The only breathing space I can expect now is the winter break. La Liga is so good. There is a winter break. I really don't know how the beasts in the Premier League survived."
Gago secretly felt glad that he was in La Liga. Countless Premier League players were crying.
Although Schuster gave Gago a two-day holiday after returning from the national team, the sequelae left behind by intensive games was not so easy to remove, and Gago's condition can only be said to have recovered halfway.
The team commander's downturn caused Real Madrid to suffer its first defeat this season. They were defeated 2:1 by Espanyol away. Since Real Madrid's players are basically an indispensable part of the national team, they basically played all the games.
Real Madrid's performance in this game was collectively sluggish. In the first half, Espanyol scored two goals using set pieces and counterattacks. Real Madrid's form recovered in the second half. They began to bombard the Spaniard who had retracted and defended the dead, but there was no consequence.
Seeing this scene, Schuster decisively gave up the game. He replaced the three players Gago, Fanny and Guti one after another to retain their strength for the next Champions League.
I have to say that Shuster is still bold in making decisions, retaining several core physical fitness and making way for important games. After all, their advantage in the league is still quite big, and it’s no big deal to lose one game.
However, in the 90th minute, after Gago and the other three left the court, Real Madrid still moved back a goal. With a corner kick opportunity, Sneider drove to the far point, and Ramos pushed the ball in with his strong body. However, this goal could not save Real Madrid, and the White Army finally lost.
After this game, the media almost cried with emotion. Finally, they lost. If you don’t lose, our newspapers will not be sold.
The news that Real Madrid won has always been bored with watching it. Although the media likes to distort the facts, they are not so bold that they call a victory game a failure. After Real Madrid was tied by the newly promoted Valladolid last time, their newspaper sales rose sharply to a small step. From then on, they have been looking forward to the stars and the moon, begging Real Madrid to lose.
The devout prayer of the journalists of the media was finally known by God and the old man. The national team match day was arranged, allowing the players from the wealthy families to play in the qualifiers where the club head coach gritted their teeth. The players who came back were all tired and even had minor injuries. They had to miss ten days and half a month without luck.
Sure enough, the sales of newspapers recording the news of Real Madrid's loss the next day rose to a big step.
Some experts jumped out, saying that Real Madrid's sluggish state will last at least half a month, so who made the White Army a main member of the national team even if it was a substitute? A World Cup qualifier made all the head coaches of the wealthy club jump and scold their mother.
However, what makes Real Madrid fans feel at ease is that Barcelona also lost. At this time, the wealthy families around the world are collectively in trouble.
Barcelona was defeated 3-1 by Pellegrini's finished Villarrell at the Love Song Stadium. Puyol scored a goal to save face for Barcelona at the last time.
The two teams are still different~~The online starter is updated~~Two points, ranking first and second in the standings!
Real Madrid players did not pay attention to the outside world's discussion of this defeat. At the request of Schuster, they devoted themselves to training and prepared to adjust their sluggish state to welcome the arrival of Olympiacos.
Originally, Group C was generally considered to be the back garden of Real Madrid because there were basically no strong opponents. In addition to the media's belief that Real Madrid had a qualifying spot, the other place was either Lazio or Werder Bremen, but he didn't expect that until now, the second place was Olympiacos, who was considered to be the bottom of the Champions League.
Real Madrid is not in their best condition in this game, but Olympiacos is waiting for it and may be able to overthrow the White Army away.
There is no way. Real Madrid is too strong this season, so that anyone who is not Real Madrid fans hopes to come out with a hero to stop him.
The last game of Real Madrid's defeat in Espanyol made everyone see hope. They placed their hopes on Olympiacos, who was not inferior to their strength, and asked them to test whether the White Army is really in a weak period. If Real Madrid fails again in this game, then their three opponents will mercilessly defeat the White Army to show their merits.
In a way, Real Madrid cannot lose in this game, and Schuster understands this truth very well.
"We must win this game. There are 50,000 fans outside. They are not here to see us fail. We lost the last game, and we can still use accidents as excuses, but if we still lose in this game, it is not accidental. We are Real Madrid, the best club of the 20th century, and countless enemies are looking forward to us falling. However, we have to fight back with a big victory and tell the enemy that we are a wealthy family! This is, Bernabeu!"
Schuster rarely uses psychological means to stimulate the players' condition, but this method will be effective for the first time. In this game, Real Madrid players all show their own condition. After all, a player who has always been used to winning suddenly gives him a defeat, which will make them very angry and feel that they are humiliated.
Nowadays, Real Madrid players are so mentally. They were angry by the failure of the last game. When they came to their senses, they needed a target to vent, so at this time Olympiacos bumped into them.
In this game, Schuster once again sent the strongest lineup in his hands. The forward line sent a combination of Raul and Fanny's attacking team, who scored 113 goals in the Champions League. The midfield was organized by Gago and Guti, and Robinho and Sneida flew on both wings. Robben, who had a fragile system, was injured again and had to hang out of the battle card.
Such a midfield and frontcourt combination completely broke Olympiacos' defense. Two minutes into the game, Guti helped Raul start the first record with an accurate pass.
But five minutes later, Olympiacos used a counterattack opportunity to equalize the score. Without Diyala's interception in the midfield, Gago was a little reluctant to make a move. After the opponent used the advantage of the number of players, he passed the ball into the penalty area. Galetti inserted the ball into the middle to receive the shot with his left foot. Many Real Madrid players came forward to siege and did not tackle the ball. The ball was heavily hit into the lower left corner of the net.
However, this goal made Real Madrid players' anger even more intense. Gago, who was very upset, dribbled the ball from the backcourt and did not block the two midfielders, and then kicked the ball thirty meters away from the goal. This powerful shot was not at any angle, but relied on strength and speed, and smashed into the upper right corner of the goal before the opponent's goalkeeper.
This is not over. Before the end of the first half, Robinho used his dazzling skills to enter the penalty area and scored the top corner, scoring the third goal for Real Madrid.
After the start of the second half, Real Madrid's anger was not fully vented, and they vented again at Olympiacos. Robinho scored twice, and Van Nie also received a diagonal pass from Gago in the penalty area and scored another goal. Finally, in the third minute of injury time, Soldado, who came on the bench, used a set piece goal to push the goal.
In the end, Real Madrid slaughtered Olympiacos, the second in the group, 5:1 at home, and declared his unshakable dominance! (To be continued) ~~
