On the afternoon of April 15, Real Madrid challenged Sporting Gijon in the 32nd round of La Liga.
Just away from Bayern Munich, Zidane sent off the bench for this game and rotated ten players at a stretch. Only captain Ramos continued to play with Nacho as the central defender.
But even so, Real Madrid still played very tenaciously on the road.
In the fourth minute of the first half, Sporting Gijon scored the first goal, but after three minutes, Vazquez passed the ball, Isco dipped the ball in the penalty area and passed the other two players. Equalize the score.
In the 50th minute of the second half, Sporting Gijon used a free kick to create chaos and broke Real Madrid's goal again. This time Real Madrid took a longer time to equalize the score. It took nine minutes. Danilo crossed from the right and Morata The header from the small penalty area hit, helping the team to equalize the score again.
Then, until the ninetieth minute, Marcelo came off the bench and sent an assist. Isco scored a low shot from the front of the penalty area and scored twice, using a lore goal to help Real Madrid score three points away. .
...
After rotating ten players and fighting on the road, they were still able to win the opponent. Despite losing two goals, Real Madrid's strength, especially in the thickness of the bench, surprised the entire La Liga. .
In contrast, Barcelona does not have the thickness of a bench like Real Madrid, still playing in the main lineup, but Neymar, who performed poorly in the Champions League, was excluded from the list.
But even so, Barcelona played a very dangerous game against the Royal Society in the main scene. In the case of two-time lead, they were evenly scored by the opponent twice, and were even reversed by the opponent in the second half.
In the end, Messi had two shots and one pass to help Barcelona beat the Royal Society three to two at home.
After the end of the battle, the Catalan media also compared Real Madrid, thinking that Barcelona's biggest problem is the team's midfield and backcourt defense, and the lack of thickness on the bench.
"Real Madrid have rotated ten players, but they can still easily compete in La Liga. In contrast, we have tried our best and still played dangerously. This is the gap between the two teams."
Many analysts also believe that Barcelona's current problem is not a player or a coach's problem at all, but is caused by the failure of the management transfer strategy in the past few years and the blind accumulation of superstars in the frontcourt.
Nowadays, the midfield and backcourt are full of holes, the thickness of the bench is thin, and the young players have to be promoted frequently. As a result, they cannot stand on their feet. The bench lineup has led to the team's lack of success on multiple fronts.
"Today, the gap between Barcelona and Real Madrid on the court is a reflection of the gap in the level of club management."
…………
…………
On the evening of April 18, the Bernabéu Stadium in Madrid.
In the second round of the UEFA Champions League knockout round, Real Madrid played at home against Bayern Munich.
This is the first time Ancelotti has left Real Madrid before returning to Bernabeu.
Despite being an opponent, it may have been influenced by the favorable score of the first round. The fans of Bernabeu still gave a warm applause to Ancelotti, and countless fans shouted his name.
Robben and Xavi Alonso have been treated the same. Both former Real Madrid players have made contributions to the team, and so far they have been talked about by fans, especially Xavi Alonso, He is about to retire this season and will return to Madrid in the summer.
Unlike the first round, Lewandowski came back and replaced Thomas Mueller as the center. Bernat replaced Hummells as the central defender and partnered with Boateng. The rest of the players basically maintained the first round of the lineup. .
Real Madrid rotated ten players in the weekend's league, the purpose is to want to be at ease in this game.
The team still looks like four or four, but in fact it is different. Hazard ’s position is more like a front waist, ambushing behind Yang Yang and Suarez, Tony Cross, Casemiro and Modric served as the third midfielder.
After learning the lessons of the first round, Real Madrid still attaches great importance to the defense of the two wings, but because the first round of four to one lead, grabbed a favorable opportunity, so Real Madrid did not worry after the opening.
On the contrary, Bayern Munich, after grabbing the right to serve, Robben just kicked the ball to Lewandowski, Ribery was like a lightning, quickly inserted into Real Madrid's right side.
Lewandowski returned to Xavi Alonso, who made a long pass and sent the ball directly to Real Madrid's 30-meter area.
Ribery pressed Carvajal, turned his back to the offensive direction, headed the ball, and flew to the back. Robben inserted the left side of the penalty area at the fastest speed, caught up with Ribery's ferry ball, tried Cross from the left side of Real Madrid's penalty area.
Lewandowski has also quickly moved into the penalty zone at this time, ready to accept the cross from the left.
Ramos was very experienced and pinched the inside precisely, without giving Robben a chance to kick.
The Dutch winger had no choice but to bring out the penalty area and chose to pass back to Alabah. Under Modric's pressure, Alabah passed the ball back to the midfield and reorganized the attack.
The attack made the Bernabeu stadium shocked with cold sweat.
The two old guys, who are already 67 years old combined, still have such excellent fighting power, and the speed is still very fast, and the long pass of the 35-year-old Harvey Alonso is also quite skillful. People have to be in awe.
...
For this start, Real Madrid is psychologically prepared.
As if Barcelona had reversed the match of Paris Saint-Germain six to one, if Bayern Munich wanted to reverse, then they must grab the start. This is a must. Otherwise, Real Madrid can control the ball and rhythm It was dead, so Ancelotti's opening attack was not hard to guess at all.
The real suspense lies in Real Madrid's response.
Yang Yang and Zidane are very clear, Barcelona or Bayern Munich, the strength has reached this level, the opponent ’s contraction is equivalent to chronic suicide, so Real Madrid ’s strategy is to guard the first wave of the opening, the overall pressure forward, strengthen The frontcourt forced to oppress, especially Xavi Alonso.
This is why Yang Yang and Zidane put Hazard to the front waist.
And after stabilizing the opening, Real Madrid completed the goal in the frontcourt in just two minutes.
Hazard was replaced in advance by Zidane in the first leg. Obviously, he clearly knew the reason. After the game, both Yang Yang and Zidane told him that he hoped to strengthen the defensive investment on the court.
For players of this level, proper beating is still very meaningful, at least Hazard did this game.
Tiago's return to Harvey Alonso was preempted by Hazard.
The Belgian counterattacked the ball and grabbed the ball to the left of the penalty area before Harvey Alonso caught him.
The most dangerous part of the midfield and frontcourt is here. Often, with just one pass, they can directly threaten the opponent's goal.
Yang Yang stopped the ball on the left side, before Ram approached, he immediately pulled the ball laterally, avoiding Bayern's right defender, and took another step forward, creating a gap from the top defender Boateng , The right foot hit a curve ball.
What is Yangyang area?
That is in this area, Yang Yang knows where the goal is with his eyes closed!
The ball came into the upper right corner of the Bayern Munich goal with a beautiful arc.
Neuer was caught off guard.
"Goallllllllllllllllllllllllll !!!!!!"
"In the opening two minutes, Real Madrid took the lead in breaking the goal of Bayern Munich!"
"Yang Yang! Yang Yang!"
"Critical moment, Yang Yang in the familiar [Yang Yang area], with a deadly arc, penetrated the goal of Bayern Munich to help the team lead one by one, the total score is five to one."
The entire Bernabeu stadium is shouting Yang Yang's name, and he is flying along the stadium.
Thirty-three-year-old Ribery and Robben are still able to play. Thirty-five-year-old Harvey Alonso can also play a core role in Bayern Munich, while Yang Yang is only thirty years old. When it's too old to kick.
All Real Madrid fans are celebrating with joy, and Zidane is also very excited. On the contrary, Ancelotti looks very lonely, because he knows that Yang Yang and Zidane will not make mistakes easily.
…………
…………
After leading, Real Madrid still played steadily, mainly on defense, but never shrunk, but actively adopted the tactics of forcing and pressing in the midfield and frontcourt, and slowly retreated according to the situation on the court.
Both Yang Yang and Zidane know Real Madrid's advantage, that is, young.
Compared with Bayern Munich in their early thirties, Real Madrid's age advantage is obvious, and their physical fitness is more abundant.
In this case, Real Madrid is willing to invest more in the frontcourt and disrupt Bayern Munich from the start.
More importantly, the midfield and frontcourt not only can get defensive stability, but also can actively create counter-attack opportunities.
After being scored by Real Madrid, Bayern Munich not only did not become cautious, but invested more in the offense.
The German team is very clear that they have no way to go, and the score is too far behind. If they can't score, it is meaningless for them to drop another ball.
Successive offenses do create opportunities, but Real Madrid ’s defense is not a fuel-efficient lamp, especially when Tony Cross and Modric put more energy on the wing defense.
As in the first round, Vidal is still very active, frequently plugged in, but this time Real Madrid has already been prepared.
In the thirty-fifth minute, Casemiro took the lead and gave the ball to Modric on the right side in a fight with Vidal.
After the Croatian midfielder stopped the ball, he quickly sent a long overpass and sent the ball precisely behind Bayern Munich's defense.
Suarez got rid of Bernat, quickly drew the ball and plugged it in, driving straight into Bayern's goal and went straight to the goal of Bayern, forming a two-on-one with Yang Yang on the left.
When attacking into the penalty area, Suarez gently sent a cross-footed, Boateng fell directly to the shovel, trying to intercept the ball, but it was almost behind, Yang Yang, who was following, easily pushed the lower left corner. , Two to zero!
This time, Bayern Munich is completely desperate!
