Vol 4 Chapter 814: King Mark

On the evening of January 16, San Mames Stadium in Bilbao.
In the eighteenth round of La Liga, Real Madrid challenged Athletic Bilbao away.
When the referee Vazquez blew the whistle at the end of the game, the whole San Mames stadium sounded deafening cheers.
Forty thousand fans of Athletic Bilbao are cheering wildly, celebrating a difficult victory for the team they support, and there are also many people shouting the goal hero Fernando Llorente name.
One to zero, this is the final score of this game.
Real Madrid received the third defeat of the season, but also made the situation after Christmas again worse.
Yang Yang kicked the whole court, sweating and sweating. Before the whistle sounded, he was still struggling to win a chance, but when the whistle sounded, he seemed to be hollowed out.
Standing on an unfamiliar court, tilting his head, let his face sweat fall.
The Basque Lions are notoriously xenophobic, and they are also quite unfriendly to the visiting team. These difficult teams were all thought of before the game.
No one expected that the game would be so difficult.
Less than two minutes into the opening, Athletic Bilbao relied on the opportunity of a corner kick from Llorente header.
That's right, it's a corner kick again!
From Liverpool to Real Madrid, Benitez's team has been suffering from corner kicks.
The team's defensive problems are also constantly exposed and dig deep, especially after Christmas.
First, the team's post-holiday state fluctuates, and second, the team's defense problems are frequently used by opponents.
First, in the league draw with Osasuna, then in the King's Cup was eliminated by Santander Athletic, and now lost to Athletic Bilbao, such a report card is certainly unsatisfactory.
Athletic Bilbao also paid a painful price, they got eight yellow cards and one red card in the whole game.
Among them, Gu Peiji's red card was obtained by accumulating yellow cards in the final stage of the game.
At the end of the last few minutes, Athletic Bilbao has been procrastinating for a long time. After Isolas was yellow carded by the referee, they still did not converge.
Yang Yang has worked very hard throughout the game, but his recent condition is indeed not good, coupled with the team's overall poor performance, and insufficient support for him, resulting in his failure to score in this game.
In this game, he was out of control because of his anxiety, and he also received a yellow card.
It was during the final stage of the game, Yang Yang tried his best to chase a ball that was about to go out of the baseline, but was interrupted by the defender of Athletic Bilbao and failed to catch up, which made him a bit sad.
It was at this time that the fans of San Mames stadium raised an insult to Yang Yang, and the whole audience was boiling.
Throughout the game, the fans of the home team attacked Yang Yang with all his polarities, and even attacked him with some malicious words. These Yang Yang endured, but when the game was near the end, they sat in the front row Fans of Yang Yang, who chased the ball, almost screamed at his nose.
At that time, Yang Yang was already anxious, and his opponent has been deliberately delaying time. Now he is being cursed by the other party's nose. The distance between them is less than one meter, and there is a billboard across.
He grabbed the ball on the ground and was about to smash it over, scaring the fan back on the seat.
But at this very moment, he finally recovered his senses and quickly dunked the ball back, but all the fans of Athletic Bilbao also seemed to have reached a high / surge, cursing him more screaming and overwhelming.
Yang Yang was shown a yellow card by the head referee, believing that his move provoked the visiting team fans.
"Relax, I will write their attack on you in the match report." After the referee gave the yellow card, he comforted Yang Yang.
But in the end, Real Madrid still failed to beat Athletic Bilbao on the road.
Yang Yang stood in the stadium, the cheers on the scene were deafening.
He knew very well that this was a fan of the visiting team demonstrating to him, showing off towards him.
And he can also imagine that after tonight, he and Real Madrid will be more difficult.
…………
…………
Real Madrid lost 1-0 to Athletic Bilbao, but Barcelona beat Sevilla 4-0 at home.
Yang Yang's former teammate Escud scored an own goal, Pedro scored the second goal, Messi staged a score twice.
These two goals helped Messi to reverse Yang Yang with 15 goals and lead the La Liga scorer list.
The Barcelona ace star was very excited after the game. He repeatedly said that only 18 rounds have been played in La Liga. Scoring 15 goals is not enough to explain the problem. More importantly, after the round, Barcelona is still three points behind Real Madrid .
"I hope to help the team to reverse Real Madrid in the standings and win the championship!" Messi said with enthusiasm.
...
The advantage of shrinking in the standings, the scorer list was reversed by Messi, Yang Yang seemed to be knocked down to the ground from the legendary cloud of the three-time World Footballer, let him clearly realize the fierce competition.
Messi said that he wanted to defeat Yang Yang, which is certainly not an empty sentence.
What's more terrible is that Real Madrid is really in trouble now, and Yang Yang is not at his best.
The Marca newspaper analyzed Yang Yang ’s recent problems after the game and believed that the main reason was that the team gave him insufficient support and even thought Benitez ’s tactics were somewhat conservative.
You know, in the Premier League last season, Yang Yang scored 44 goals in 38 rounds, and in the previous season, Yang Yang scored 34 goals, but this season so far, 18 rounds Only scored fourteen goals. Although he has dedicated nine assists, this transcript is indeed inferior to the past.
The Marca newspaper also believes that Real Madrid ’s current problem is that the offensive end of the team has not fully activated the attack power of the tridents Yang Yang, Ibrahimovic and Robben, but at the same time the defensive end has exposed serious The problem, which led to the team entering January, continued to fight unfavorably, was eliminated from the King's Cup.
Not only the Marca newspaper, the Aspen newspaper also deeply analyzed Yang Yang's performance this season, thinking that it is much lower than the past two seasons.
"To comprehensively analyze the problems encountered by Real Madrid, one of the main reasons is that the team's tactics have not been fully shaped, especially the team's defensive tactical system. Both Santander and Athletic Bilbao are exposed In view of defensive issues, several superstars in the team have not yet fully integrated into the team, which will become a serious problem for the team. "
Aspen believes that it is not important to be eliminated from the King's Cup, because the cup itself is more tasteless, the real challenge is the February 16 Champions League knockout.
This time Real Madrid's opponent was Ligue 1 Lyon.
"Ligue 1 Lyon, dubbed as [Real Madrid Star] by the media, because in the past few years, Real Madrid have been divided into the same group with Lyon twice in the UEFA Champions League group stage. Real Madrid has two draws and two losses in four matches. Won a victory. "
"In the group stage of the 2005-2006 season, Real Madrid lost to Lyon 0-3 in the first round away. After returning to the home, they were drawn one-to-one. Then Lyon pressed Real Madrid to qualify from the top of the group. The identity of the second place unfortunately won the last Arsenal to reach the final, stopping at the quarterfinals. "
"A year later, still in the UEFA Champions League group stage, Real Madrid encountered Lyon again, or the first round away, the score was zero to two, and then returned to the home, Real Madrid tied Lyon two to two in the second draw, still failed to win the opponent, and finally bowed down Under Lyon, with the second qualifying in the group, Bayern Munich was drawn in the quarterfinals of the quarterfinals.
Aspen believes that Real Madrid was crowned with the embarrassing nickname of the UEFA Champions League. Lyon can be said to be the initiator. This team is known as Real Marks and has brought countless painful experiences to Real Madrid.
And this season, Benitez reorganized this galactic warship, a very important mission is to break out of the Champions League sixteen, just unexpectedly, once again met the dead enemy Lyon.
What's more terrible is that Real Madrid is now in a bleak situation. First, Kaka's serious injury surgery, then the team's defensive illness was exposed. Now the team is in a downturn, and Yang Yang is in a poor state. concern.
"Does it mean that the team will continue to stop at the quarterfinals this year?"
Obviously, this is a statement that will not be accepted by management and fans, even players and coaching staff anyway.
After investing huge amounts of money and bringing in so many superstars and world-class stars, the result is still in the top 16?
Does this make sense?
But since the team's performance since January, it is indeed unsatisfactory, which can't help but make the team's external public opinion boast, and even tabloid media has created momentum, thinking that the team should make a decision as soon as possible, let Benitez finish class.
The reason is simple. Benitez ’s football is not pleasing. Real Madrid prefers a hearty offense. At the same time, they also believe that Benitez cannot solve the current crisis and challenges faced by the team. To stimulate the team's vitality and fighting spirit.
"The most important thing is that we need a head coach who is good at training offense to activate Yang Yang. The team wants to break the spell of the top 16 and which goal is needed, such as picking the grass and the unstoppable Yang Yang!"
And inside the team, it's also a little different.
Real Madrid's locker room has never been good, some people even think that Real Madrid's locker room is the most complicated locker room in the world.
Before the team won the game nonstop, everything was okay, but now the team has lost the ball, although it still leads the standings, but for Real Madrid, it is nothing.
In the eyes of the media and fans, and even in the eyes of the management team, with Real Madrid's input and the team's current lineup strength, if they can't lead the standings, I am afraid that they have proposed to change coaches.
There was a lot of discussion outside, internal panic, internal and external difficulties, Benitez's Real Madrid encountered the first major crisis since coaching.
Yang Yang did not receive any criticism and criticism, but the team's poor performance, his number one superstar is also responsible, and Benitez's coaching crisis also makes him uneasy.
