Vol 4 Chapter 1012: Four kill Barcelona

In the 35th round of La Liga, Century Derby, Real Madrid challenged Barcelona away.
As the third Century Derby in a short period of time, the two sides can say that they played all the cards they could play before.
Real Madrid came to the Camp Nou with a total score of 8-0 in the two rounds of the UEFA Champions League semi-finals, and Barcelona was highly hoped by all fans, hoping to rebound at the bottom of the home, even if it is just a game that has not hindered the overall situation. If you really can beat Real Madrid, it is also a good thing to celebrate.
But it turned out that Barcelona did not return to life.
Real Madrid played in a rotation in this game, Ancelotti discharged a four, three, three formation, the goalkeeper is Casillas, the back line is a combination of Maxwell, Pepe, Varane and Aveloya, ha After Vimartinez dragged, Herrera and Modric partnered in the midfield, and Yang Yang, Ibrahimović and Di Maria partnered with the Trident.
Ancelotti's platoon formation is very obvious, that is, midfield suppression, using the characteristics of Martinez, Herrera and Modric's midfield attack and defense to suppress Barcelona's midfield.
Guardiola also made a proper rotation in this game, the goalkeeper is Valdes, the back line is Adriano, Pique, Puyol and Alves, the midfield is after Busquets dragging, Tiago Centering with Harvey, the frontcourt is a trident combination of Tello, Messi and Iniesta.
This is definitely a very courageous choice.
Before the game, many media broke the news that Guardiola lost its locker room support. One of the most important points is his use of several young players such as Tiago, Tello and Cuenca, because the people in the locker room believe that Guardiola should trust players like Pedro and Fabregas more.
But this battle, Guardiola arranged Tiago and Tello, showing the determination to gamble in the end.
At the beginning of the game, Real Madrid took the lead in creating a threat. Ibrahimovic made a direct pass. Yang Yang formed a single-handed but fell into Barcelona's offside trap.
Subsequently, Yang Yang forced a breakthrough on the left to get a corner kick, which allowed Real Madrid to get three corners in a row, but failed to create a threat, which also allowed Barcelona to gradually stabilize the position.
Although Real Madrid do not have control of the ball, they have created more threats and offensive opportunities. This is the same as the previous few games. Barcelona still has no chance to score, and it is difficult to create threats on both sides.
Iniesta's game appeared on the right, but he had more control of the ball in the face of Maxwell, but his ability to open the situation was insufficient, and Tello on the left played even more against Aveello Oops, arguably the most slack point in the Barcelona team.
The other is Tiago in the midfield. This player is obviously not on the same channel as Harvey and Busquets.
Or, this is the result of a series of problems within Barcelona.
In the first fifteen minutes, Real Madrid was almost always creating threats. Barcelona did not pass Messi until the fourteenth minute. Iniesta's heel shot missed the goal and completed the first shot.
But only two minutes later, Real Madrid was on the left, Yang Yang led the ball to break, Busquets fouled and won the free kick in the frontcourt, but this time Yang Yang chose to send fast, Modric scored to the right, Dima Leah shot from the right side of the penalty area with a left foot to form a corner kick.
Di Maria took a corner kick, Pepe nodded the header and was barely saved by Valdes, but Puyol did not respond in time, the first time to make a clearance, Harvey Martinez shoveled and broke the goal. zero!
...
One goal behind, another home game, Barcelona started to attack, Real Madrid was steadily back to counterattack.
The two sides have come and gone, and have not given opponents too good opportunities.
It wasn't until the 70th minute in the second half that Real Madrid created a chance to break again.
When countering, Ibrahimovic forced the ball and attracted the defensive attention of the two central defenders, then passed it to Yang Yang. Yang Yang pushed the left rib of the penalty area and was blocked by Valdes with his leg. Al kicked in from the outside of the penalty area, hit Puyol and rebounded to the right of the penalty spot. Di Maria followed to calmly push and broke the goal.
Two to zero!
Only three minutes later, Modric received Di Maria's pass on the right and found Yang Yang behind Puyol. Yang Yang scored with a single pass and expanded the score to three to zero again.
Then the two sides made substitutions, but they never failed to break through each other's goal.
In the end, Real Madrid defeated Barcelona three to zero by virtue of successive goals scored by Harvey Martinez, Di Maria and Yang Yang.
...
After the game, the Spanish domestic media was in an uproar again.
Three consecutive centuries of derby, Barcelona did not score a goal, but swallowed 11 goals, which can be described as defeated, even can be said to be the most shameful battle in Barcelona's 100-year history.
Even the Catalan media couldn't help but criticize Guardiola's hiring after the game, thinking that Tello was the worst player in the game, but Guardiola tolerated him to play for 80 minutes.
"There is also Tiago, this teenager has a positive performance, but the quality of the pass is not high, and the turnovers are frequent. This is a well-known thing, but Guardiola would rather replace Xavi than Tia. Ge, this has to make people wonder whether he has been influenced by his emotions and preferences? "
The Catalan media also specially analyzed the expression of Xavi when he was replaced and said that when Xavi was replaced in the 69th minute, he did not even hug Guardiola, but just greeted at random, full Unhappy face.
"And one minute after Harvey's end, Tiago obviously couldn't control the midfield. Real Madrid took advantage of Barcelona's chance to change and scored two goals in three minutes, hitting Barcelona by surprise and further expanding the score."
The Catalan media believes that Guardiola's formation is questionable, especially his preference for young players.
"If, after three days, at the Calderon stadium, he still works hard, if he goes all alone, then it will be difficult for Barcelona to reap satisfactory results." The media asserted.
…………
…………
Three days later, Madrid Calderon Stadium.
In the final of the Spanish Kings Cup, Real Madrid face Barcelona.
Maybe it's because Guardiola repented, or maybe he realized he had to leave something, or it was pressure from management and fans ...
All in all, Guardiola compromised.
In the final of the King's Cup, Guardiola still ranked four, three and three formations, but this time there is not even a young player in the lineup, all are the main stars of the year.
Goalkeeper Valdes, with Adriano, Puyol, Pique and Alves in the back, Busquets with a single midfielder, Xavi and Iniesta in front, Pedro, Messi and Sanchez Attack the Trident in the frontcourt.
This should be the strongest lineup that Barcelona can currently discharge, and it is also the list that the outside world has been calling for Guardiola to develop, but at Calderon Stadium, this lineup still can't save Barcelona.
In just three minutes of the opening, Yang Yang received a straight pass from David Silva on the left side of the penalty area. He scored with a single-handed shot from near corner and succeeded in opening the record for Real Madrid.
Barcelona's morale is sluggish, and many players are obviously not in the best form, especially in the midfield and under the pressure of Real Madrid, there are frequent mistakes.
In the twenty-fifth minute, a long pass from Xavi Alonso, and Yang Yang's anti-offside success, volleyed directly at the front of the penalty area without stopping the ball and took the ball over the goalkeeper Valdes, who scored the score Expand to two to zero.
Barcelona still controls the ball, but it has never played an impressive offensive.
In the intermission, Guardiola made two substitutions in one breath, one was to replace Xavi with Tiago, and the other was to replace Pedro with Fabregas.
It was obvious that Guardiola was dissatisfied with the team's performance in the first half, but it was still unable to save the team's performance in the second half.
Fortunately, Real Madrid did not increase its offensive force in the second half of the game. Eventually, Yang Yang scored twice and defeated Barcelona 2-0 to win the King's Cup.
...
When the game ended, the emperor immediately rushed into the stadium, and the entire Calderon stadium burst into thunderous cheers.
Although this is the home of the rivals Atletico Madrid, but tonight is a stage for Real Madrid fans to celebrate.
Ancelotti, Zidane and others are also excited and inexplicable. The double crown is handed over. As long as they defeat Chelsea in the Champions League final half a month later, Real Madrid will undoubtedly achieve the triple crown.
This is the first time in the history of Spanish football that a team has achieved the Triple Crown!
The entire Calderon stadium was filled with cheers from Real Madrid players and fans, deafening.
In front of Barcelona's coach seat, Guardiola looked at the Barcelona player with a lonely face on the court. He wanted to go up and told them not to be disappointed. They all looked up, but he didn't walk over in the end. .
Because he knew that at this time, no matter what he said, it would only make this group of players even more disappointed.
More importantly, he couldn't convince himself to walk over, because he was also completely disappointed at this moment.
From the eighth year in charge of this team to the present, in four years, he has experienced a lot, gained a lot, but also lost a lot.
Until now, he really began to understand the words that Master Cruyff once told him.
In today ’s world of professional football, Ferguson is an alternative. It ’s unique. The ideal time for any head coach on a team is three years, but it ca n’t exceed four years at most, because when you are fresh, when you are no longer When you have passion, you will find that the job that was originally vowed to love your life has become a torture.
Guardiola happened to be four years old. He deeply understood and understood these words.
Before the game, he tried very hard to leave something for Barcelona, ​​but now, he feels unnecessary.
...
When Real Madrid was still celebrating the team's winning the King's Cup in the locker room of Calderon Stadium, at the post-match press conference, Guardiola made it clear for the first time that he would not renew the contract with Barcelona.
"Now, it is indeed time to say goodbye!" Guardiola said with red eyes.
