908 Tookgu and Defeat

"Group B can even be said to be the most 'dead' group ever. Four teams will be very, very difficult. Spain, Germany, Portugal and France are together. This is definitely the most difficult group to guess and will also be very difficult to play, because almost the best teams are here!"

This is after attending the lottery ceremony. When England coach Capello was interviewed by reporters, he smiled and joked about the group B group experience, believing that this death group can even be said to be the most terrifying time in history.

"However, I think everything should be viewed like this. No matter what team can stand out from the death group, it means they will encounter weaker opponents in the knockout round, so in essence, the schedule is very fair to them. The key is to see strength!"

French head coach Blanco participated in a photo of the four head coaches in Group B, and then accepted an interview with a reporter, crying, "Everyone agrees that this is the most difficult group, but we are still confident that we can stand out from this death group. The key is that the team must show enough strength and competitiveness."

But with a very objective data, it may well reflect how terrifying the death level of Group B is.

Many European bookmakers led by William Hill changed their odds as soon as they came out. Spain's championship odds remained the same. This team is still the number one favorite. The German team's odds dropped from the original second to the fourth place, and even fell behind Italy and the Netherlands. The optimistic level showed a small decline, but it was still among the favorites to win the championship.

The odds of Portugal have changed from 17.00 to 19.00, from 6th to 9th now. The French team is even worse, and the optimistic attitude towards winning the championship has changed from 7th to 11th now. It is obvious that these are all affected by the death group.

"This is my first time leading a team to participate in the European Cup. I know that there are only 16 teams in the European Cup, and their strength is closer. The quality is higher and the competition is more intense. Almost every European Cup will have a group of death, so I affirmed the draw of the German team, because the other three groups are not completely without suspense and competition."

When Yang Cheng was interviewed by UEFA official media, he generously expressed his support and affirmation of UEFA lottery draw. Although he knew very well, there must be some tricks in this, but it was more due to the needs of marketing and other aspects.

After so many years of lingering in the football field, Yang Cheng is very familiar with the rules in the football field. Because only by understanding these rules can you survive in this circle and achieve glory. So he will not criticize anything he dislikes when he first debuted. He thinks the draw and schedule are fair.

Why do you say so?

"Many people think that the death group is not good, but let's take a look. After the team in Group B qualifies, they encounter teams in Group A, Czech Republic, Greece, Russia and Poland. I dare to say offense that the team in Group B is the most promising team to advance to the semi-finals after qualifying in Group B. Of course, I'm not saying that the team in Group A has no hope."

I believe no one will oppose Yang Cheng's statement, because no matter which aspect it is, teams like Czech Republic, Greece and Russia cannot compete with the four strong teams in Group B for the time being. The teams in Group C and Group D have almost reached the semi-finals with one foot. On the other hand, the teams in Group C and Group D have to face strong dialogues and hard fighting after qualifying.

There is a saying that goes very well. Everything has its pros and cons. The key is how you view it.

"Mr. Yang Cheng, after learning the lottery results, are you worried about the German team qualifying?" The interviewer asked with a smile. Everyone knows that the German team led by Yang Cheng is the most popular team in the European Cup.

Yang Cheng shook his head and laughed, "I'm worried, but I'm never worried about qualifying, but whether my team can play their best in the game. I think this is the key to a team's outstanding results."

"But there are also many people who think that putting aside the firefighting in the South African World Cup, this is your first time leading a team to prepare for a tournament-based event. They are worried that you will not be able to adapt to the transition from club to national team. What do you think personally?"

"There must be a little bit, but it's just a little bit!" Yang Cheng knew that it was impossible for the whole world to be optimistic about you and support you, "But I think it's useless to say anything, and it's the most practical to use the game to speak."

"Take this opportunity, I want to tell all fans who like the German team and support the German team. We will qualify, we will advance, and we will definitely kill Spain and avenge our previous shame!"

The image of absolute confidence when Yang Cheng said the last sentence appeared on the front page of major European newspapers the next day. It was obvious that everyone was looking forward to seeing whether he could fulfill his promises and whether he could truly suppress the arrogant Spain and laugh to the end.

But from the evaluations of a series of experts, whether it is a bookmaker or an analyst, it is not difficult to see that Spain is definitely the most powerful top team in this European Cup. Everyone believes that Spain is much better than all other opponents in terms of strength, and it is not easy for any opponent to challenge Spain.

Boske smiled and fought back against Yang Cheng's provocation when he was interviewed by Ashes. "According to the schedule, we will play against the German team in the first game of the group. We look forward to giving our Caesar a European Cup opening black. It is best to let this dangerous team stop in the group stage directly, and we will lose a very strong opponent!"

Although it seems to be counterattacking, it can be seen that Boske has always attached great importance to Germany. He has stated more than once that the German team will be Spain's strongest competitor in the European Cup, especially the German team led by Yang Cheng, who definitely has the strength to challenge Spain.

But even so, most people are still not optimistic about Germany because this team has a big gap with Spain in terms of strength, and it can even be said to be a huge gap.

After completing this draw, the German national team's itinerary finally came to an end. All that remains is a warm-up match in February 2012, which was also the last training camp before the European Cup, and this training camp was completed. The team will wait until the league is fully over and gather the team for final preparations.

Yang Cheng attaches great importance to the training camp in February. This time he will call in more marginal international players for inspection, and then after the league ends in May, a training camp with up to 30 people will be summoned, and then 23 European Cup rosters will be selected from them.

If Yang Cheng had a certain degree of optimism about the European Cup before, then this time, he was pulled into the death group and his last bit of optimism no longer exists!

…………

…………

Returning to the La Liga, Yang Cheng led the team to challenge Valencia away.

Valencia and Atletico Madrid performed well this season. If we put aside Real Madrid, the Spanish Super League team, they are the two most powerful teams in La Liga, ranking second and third in the league respectively, while Barcelona fell to fourth place.

Real Madrid played Valencia away in the 13th round of the league, and at the 14th round of the home game, with an UEFA Champions League match in the middle, so Yang Cheng arranged many international players who did not participate in the national team competition or did not play the whole game.

The gap in strength allowed Real Madrid to quickly suppress the Bat Legion away, and Sarabia scored the first record for Real Madrid. After that, Canales and Mata each scored a goal, helping Real Madrid take the lead 3:0 smoothly.

However, in the second half, Valencia had the advantage in the field and launched a round of counterattack. Real Madrid was forced into a mess and retreated step by step. Even Soldado was sneak attacked and helped Valencia get back a goal. But in the end, Real Madrid took away a 3-1 victory from the away game.

Although he was scored, the defense line composed of Compani, Varane and Miguel Torres performed well. As the central defender, Compani performed well and had a good look, with a high-ranking style. Mvila, who played as a midfielder, was also eye-catching. She cooperated with Parejo and Granero very well.

Dynamo Zagreb was welcomed in the middle of the week, and he had already qualified as the first place in the group in advance. Real Madrid had no need to fight against the Croatians anymore. Yang Cheng continued to arrange for the group of substitutes and young players to start, and even the goalkeeper changed to Antonio Adan, and the captain's armband was worn on Delarede's arm.

As the captain of the field, Real Madrid's midfielder directed his teammates to frequently attack Dynamo Zagreb during the game. First, in the second minute, Parejo made a pass and assisted Villa to score a goal, opening the first record for Real Madrid.

Afterwards, Real Madrid was unstoppable and scored again in the 6th, 9th and 20th minutes respectively. The team established a 4-0 lead in the first half, making Real Madrid fans in the stands at the Bernabeu stadium all so happy that they couldn't find the direction.

After the two sides changed sides again in the second half, Real Madrid continued to chase and fight hard. With the goals of Sarabia and Morata, they defeated Dynamo Zagreb 6-0 at home, winning five consecutive victories in the Champions League group stage.

Back in La Liga, Real Madrid finally ushered in the long-awaited Madrid derby.

Although it was a derby, in fact, Madrid's derby did not have any tit-for-tat avenge or a bloody battle with swords and shadows. Even after Real Madrid killed Valencia in the last round, Atletico Madrid replaced him and became the second-place in La Liga, there was no ambition to compete for the championship in this derby.

To the Barcelona World Sports News, this is not a derby battle with thousands of people leaving the whole city completely boiling, but a quiet game where the strong ravage the weak, and fans of the Bedsheet Legion would not be willing to watch such a game.

In the past 12 years, Atletico Madrid has never beaten Real Madrid. Even though they have spent a lot of money this season and have introduced Falcao, who has excellent goal-scoring skills, under the shadow of Real Madrid's powerful cloud-like superstar, the lineup of the Bedsheet Legion is simply not available.

In terms of goals, Cristiano Ronaldo, Messi and Aguero all beat Atletico Madrid's number one scoring player Falcao in seconds. The top three are the top three in the European scorer list and are also the top three in the La Liga scorer list. Falcao can only rank fourth, and is tied with Soldoda who plays for Valencia and Negredo who plays for Sevilla.

In terms of defense, Real Madrid is the team with the least goals conceded in Europe, and Atletico Madrid conceded twice as many goals as Real Madrid.

It can be said that from the beginning, no one would be optimistic about Atletico Madrid, and even the fans of the Bedding Legion who came to the Bernabeu Stadium to watch this derby were less than four figures, only a few hundred people. This shows the attitude of Atletico Madrid fans towards this game. They obviously do not want to go to the Bernabeu Stadium to appreciate the opponent's ravage skills.

That's self-abuse!

Facts have proved that Real Madrid has more than one strength than Atletico Madrid.

In the 15th minute, Messi successfully passed the ball on the right. He passed it to Kaka, who passed it straight behind him. Aguero successfully counterattacked. After getting the ball, he flicked a shot and passed it back to Messi who was inserted in the back. The Argentine superstar shot low and hit the far corner!

After scoring the goal, Messi ran to Aguero immediately. Two Argentine compatriots celebrated excitedly in a corner of the stadium, and Ronaldo, Kaka and others rushed to the corner flagpole as soon as possible to congratulate Messi on his goal.

Competition is the eternal proposition of Real Madrid over the years and the key to Real Madrid maintaining its combat effectiveness. However, the biggest label of this Real Madrid team is unity!

Although Messi, Ronaldo and Aguero both compete for the number of goals, they always maintain a unity on the court, pulling each other against their teammates. Passing the ball to their teammates and assisting them is the reason why Real Madrid scored a lot of goals. The key reason is not that they have no selfish intentions and can choose to contribute selflessly, but because of Yang Cheng!

Yang Cheng set a principle for Real Madrid from the very beginning, that is, no one can surpass the team!

You can compete, but there is no problem with you competing for goals, but you have to pass the ball to me, and you have to run the ball to me, and you have to cooperate with me, and you have to do whatever you need. You must exert your strength on the basis of serving the team. Participate in the competition. This is the reason why Real Madrid maintains strong combat effectiveness.

Yang Cheng spent many years establishing the authority of this principle, which has become a hidden rule in Real Madrid's locker room. Anyone who violates this rule will be punished or even refrigerated. Therefore, although Messi and Iniesta are teams that have only joined this season, they are very familiar with this principle and implement it.

With this principle, there is nothing to be surprised about for the unity between Real Madrid and its superstars. After all, this has become a survival rule in Real Madrid's locker room.

After scoring the first goal, it is often not too difficult to score the following goal.

In the 24th minute, Ronaldo made a breakthrough cross at the edge of the penalty area on the left, and Aguero did not follow in the middle, causing the ball to be transferred to the right. Messi entered the penalty area, and after getting the ball, he sent the ball into Atletico's goal, 2:0!

The Argentine, who scored goals, looked very excited and rushed to the bottom of the Real Madrid fans' stands and waved his arms at the Real Madrid fans in the stands. This action immediately gave him cheers from Real Madrid fans.

Although Messi left Real Madrid with sadness and conceded goals before, now that he joined Real Madrid, he quickly conquered Real Madrid fans with his outstanding performance and continuous goals, and proved his value with goals and performance. Everyone even admitted that Messi's performance in Real Madrid is better than in Barcelona.

Perhaps, at Barcelona, ​​Messi is the core and soul, while at Real Madrid, he is more of a part of the team, and his importance has declined. However, at Real Madrid, he can get the opportunity to maximize his strength. Whether it is goals, passes, or retreats, Messi has become more like a fish in Real Madrid's tactical lineup.

Yang Cheng's use of players is widely praised, especially this season, the goal competition between Ronaldo, Messi and Aguero directly made Real Madrid's offense become very sharp. The team's goals have never been interrupted. The three players' goals have always been very close, and the competition is very fierce.

It seems that now, seeing Messi scored consecutive goals, Ronaldo and Aguero were not happy either. Both of them were angry and wanted to find an opportunity to score, so they performed harder, harder and more active on the court.

David Silva made a sharp pass in the 52nd minute and found Ronaldo accurately. The latter directly sent the ball into Atletico Madrid's goal, scoring Real Madrid's third goal in this game, 3:0!

In the 82nd minute, the Portuguese broke through continuously and passed the ball with a heel and found Aguero. However, Atletico defender Godin caught Ronaldo's sudden pass by a sudden pass, and he fouled Aguero in a hurry and was sent off with a red card. Aguero hit a penalty kick, 4:0!

The continuous goals made Real Madrid seem unstoppable, especially in terms of the team's morale and fighting spirit, which was even more popular.

After defeating Atletico Madrid 4-0, Real Madrid has won 13 consecutive La Liga this season, and Valencia and Barcelona both lost away in this game, so Real Madrid's lead has further expanded.

The schedule has just been 13 rounds, but Real Madrid's leading advantage is already very obvious. Even all media speculation about La Liga this season is no longer who can win the championship, but how far can Real Madrid, who lost to Dugu, expand its leading advantage and in which round it will win the championship. This is the biggest suspense of La Liga this season.

No one can stop Yang Cheng and his Real Madrid from ascending to the La Liga title this season, and even everyone believes that Real Madrid will create amazing and impressive results on all fronts this season.

There is no other reason. This is Yang Cheng’s last season in coaching the professional league. All the players are willing to fight for him and leave him a perfect season!

After playing the Madrid derby, Yang Cheng began to focus more on the century derby. Although Real Madrid is in good momentum this season and Barcelona is very embarrassed, Yang Cheng still dares not be careless.

It was just before the century-old derby that Yang Cheng received a great good news.!~!
