The outside world generally believes that Real Madrid is likely to do its best to fight the King ’s Cup final and try to keep the pressure on Barcelona in the league. The reason is also very simple. The league has won, and it still has to be two points behind Barcelona. In the end, can it win the championship? Depends on Barcelona's face, but the King's Cup final fight, that is a champion.
This is like a game, and the King's Cup is a relatively safe strategy for Real Madrid.
Real Madrid famous Ronaldo said in an interview with the media, "I believe that in a single game, Real Madrid can beat Barcelona, ​​especially in the King's Cup final, but it is very difficult to win two consecutive games."

Robert Carlos also believes that Real Madrid ’s safest strategy is to try its best to grab a game, but he thinks that the first game should be grabbed, because this will leave the pressure to Barcelona in the King ’s Cup final, but the risk is also very large, that is, once Try your best in the first game, and the second game will be very dangerous.
Figo is not willing to guess who will win. He believes that the current overall strength and performance of the two sides is five or five points. It is difficult to say who wins or loses, but he wants to win opponents in both games, whether Real Madrid or Barcelona. difficult.

…………
…………
On the evening of April 16, at 22:00, the Bernabéu Stadium in Madrid, Spain.
In the 32nd round of La Liga, Real Madrid played against Barcelona.
Benitez has a three-waist formation in this game, but this is not unexpected.
Everyone has been speculating that Real Madrid will either have a double back or a triple back, and the latter is obviously more confident.
The goalkeeper is Casillas, the back line is Marcelo, Fermalen, Ramos and Maicon, the three-back is Xavi Alonso, Javier Martinez and Mascherano, and The frontcourt is a combination of Yang Yang, Ibrahimovic and Di Maria.
When everyone saw this list, it was very clear that Benitez still had strength.
On the central defender, Pepe did not perform well this season, replaced by Fairmaren, and Robben on the front line was replaced by Di Maria, Kaka did not appear in the lineup, which is obviously to stay Work hard.
Barcelona still has four, three and three formations. The goalkeeper is Valdes. The back line is Adriano, Pique, Puyol and Alves. The midfielder is Busquets. Inez Tower and Harvey are centered, and the frontcourt is a trident combination of Villa, Messi and Pedro.
It should be said that this set of Barcelona is not surprising, this is also the main lineup of Barcelona this season.
Guardiola's football control is very strong, basically they are mainly based on themselves, so they often only need to line up their strongest lineup, play their own rhythm and style, and be able to win opponents steadily.
But Benitez and the Emperor immediately knew this kind of thinking and strategy for Barcelona.
After the game started, both sides seemed a little cautious. They tried each other for the first few minutes. However, after Real Madrid adopted a three-back midfielder, the overall formation remained relatively compact. Although it did not take the initiative to withdraw, it passed the Barcelona midfielder. The ball is actively suppressed, disrupting the opponent's pass and control and the rhythm of the game.
Real Madrid's defense was very successful, and the restrictions on Messi were also in place.
Since the Liverpool era, the team coached by Benitez has been the hardship of Barcelona. After coming to Real Madrid, it has basically continued this tradition. This makes it difficult for the Barcelona to organize an effective attack after the opening. Penetrating into the hinterland of Real Madrid, more can only fall on the periphery.
The first threatening offensive in the game occurred in the ninth minute. After Real Madrid's backcourt goal, Xavi Alonso quickly made a long diagonal pass and went directly to Di Maria on the right side of the penalty area.
The Argentine quickly plugged in, but was blocked by Barcelona's left defender Adriano. The referee gave Adriano a yellow card and gave Real Madrid a free kick 30 meters away, but Yang Yang took the penalty. He hit the goal, but was predicted by the goalkeeper Valdes in advance to accurately save the ball.
Since the opening, Barcelona has firmly controlled the situation and controlled the ball in his own hands. The ball control rate is more than 65%, but there are few really threatening attacks. Until the nineteenth minute, Barcelona An opportunity was created, Iniesta made a direct pass, Messi rushed into the penalty area from the right flank, but Cassillas picked off the shot and failed to create a threat.
Both sides played more cautiously, and Real Madrid's defense was also very tightly organized.
Javier Martinez ’s main game in the midfield is to delay the midfield. The main task is to protect the defense line. The position is not as flexible as that of Xavi Alonso and Mascherano, but they have performed very well and have a wide range of activities. Almost everywhere on the court.
Real Madrid ’s two central defenders Ramos and Fermalen also performed well. They have successfully completed the task of guarding Messi. Not only do they not lose speed, but they also have an advantage in physical confrontation. It was difficult for Messi to take advantage of the positive dialogue and had to retreat frequently.
Messi, who could retreat, fell into the defense of Javier Martinez, which almost suffocated the Argentines.
The defense of the three backs ensured the stability of the back line and the two ribs, making it difficult for Barcelona to open the situation. In the front field, it was frequently counterattacks to create opportunities. Especially from the 21st minute, Real Madrid won three consecutive corner kicks. In front of Barcelona, ​​there was a lot of noise.
Unfortunately, Benitez's corner tactics have always been criticized. Real Madrid hasn't benefited from corner tactics when the average height is dominant.
The presence of a three-back midfield stabilized the team's defense, and Real Madrid's offense began to become more active.
First, Yang Yang rushed into the penalty area from the left and missed the goal from a small angle. Then Marcelo made a direct pass, and Yang Yang broke into the penalty area and was promptly tackled by Alves. Marcelo then received Yang Yang to pass the ball and left shot , Blocked by Puyol.
Throughout the first half, Real Madrid seemed passive, but actually created the most threats, only to fail to break Barcelona's goal, and Barcelona has never been able to find an effective offensive way.
Until the 45th minute, the first half was about to enter stoppage time, Real Madrid launched an offensive on the left, Xavi Alonso suddenly turned to the right, Maicon inserted after the threat with Di Maria, Created a corner kick.
Di Maria took the corner and took it precisely to the front.
Tall players such as Ibrahimovic and Javier Martinez attracted attention, but Fairmaren made an accident at the front point, grabbed the first point, and flew the header to the back point.
Yang Yang has been ambushing in the back point, seeing the opportunity and suddenly approaching, jumping high, almost the entire person pressed onto Adriano, headed the ball from close range, and directly drove the ball into the goal of Barcelona !
"!!!!!!"
"Forty-fifth minutes, Yang Yang scored a header!"
"One to zero!"
"It's so unbelievable."
"The Real Madrid's possession rate in the half was only 34%, but it created most of the shooting opportunities, and it took the lead to break the Barcelona goal. This is unbelievable."
"From Fermalen's header ferry, we can see that the two former teammates in the Dutch League cooperated very well, and Fermalen felt as if he had long known that Yang Yang would respond later.
The entire Bernabeu stadium is also rejoicing.
More than 80,000 Real Madrid fans rushed out of their seats and shouted Yang Yang's name with a hoarse noise.
One to zero, Real Madrid broke the deadlock on the field and took the lead!
And everyone also believes that as long as Real Madrid continues to adopt the first half of the defensive strategy, there is no problem in defending this lead in the second half.
Because, Real Madrid's defense in the first half is almost perfect, leaving no chance for Barcelona.
But when everyone felt that way, maybe even Barcelona themselves thought so, not long before the second half, Real Madrid's rear line made a fatal mistake.
In a quick return, Fermalen handball in the penalty area and tripped Villa.
The head referee pointed to the penalty spot without hesitation and drew a red card.
