Vol 4 Chapter 845: How to stare at Messi?

In the 30th round of La Liga, Real Madrid challenged Santander away.
Because he just fought Manchester United in the middle of the week, Benitez made a rotation adjustment to the lineup.
When the game reached the 23rd minute, Yang Yang dribble the ball into the penalty area from the left, creating a penalty opportunity.
Surprisingly, Yang Yang did not personally take the penalty, but gave it to Sneijder.
Only the Dutch midfielder knew what was going on in his heart, so he did not politely and calmly took a penalty to the goal of Santander, one to zero.
Real Madrid's promising teenager Canales played tonight, and performed very well.
Athletic Santander also played very tenaciously without giving Real Madrid too much chance.
Until the second half, Raul replaced Sneijder, and Guti, who came off the bench for Granero, put in a through ball and sent it into the penalty area. Ibrahimovic turned back after receiving the ball against the defending player Break the goal with one pole, two to zero.
Only four minutes later, after Ibrahimovic pulled to the left to catch the ball and picked the pass, Yang Yang, who was unguarded, pushed the goal on the edge of the small penalty area and scored three to zero.
In the end, Real Madrid beat Santander 3-0 away.
...
In another stadium, the teenager Bo Yang staged a scored twice, Messi scored a goal, helping Barcelona beat Athletic Bilbao 4-1 at home and continue to maintain pressure on Real Madrid.
After the La Liga 30 rounds, Real Madrid continued to lead with a five-point lead, followed by Barcelona.
Both teams are already far ahead of other La Liga teams. Barcelona even has 21 points more than Valencia in third place and 29 points more than Sevilla in fourth place. Minute.
It can be said that the performances of Real Madrid and Barcelona are too eye-catching this season. No one will doubt the dominance of these two giants in La Liga, but everyone is also clear, whether it is Valencia or Sevelli Asia, it is impossible to shake the of the Western Super League doubles in La Liga.
More importantly, Valencia, currently ranked third in La Liga, is about to fall apart this summer. Many players on the team are facing transfer choices, which will inevitably lead to a further tear in the overall pattern of La Liga.
In the shooter list, Yang Yang took a lead with 34 goals, and he was far ahead, and he also had twenty-two assists. One person created 56 goals, accounting for more than half of Real Madrid ’s goals this season. Represents his importance to this Real Madrid.
Messi, who is ranked second in the shooter list, currently has 27 goals. Although the performance is also quite outstanding, there is still some gap from Yang Yang. Almost everyone thinks that as long as the current performance continues, Yang Yang scored this season. It is still very possible that the number breaks forty again.
Messi was followed by players such as Ibrahimovic, Villa, Fran and Soldado.
And after playing the 30th round of La Liga, everyone also turned their attention to the century derby one week later.
...
"I believe that we can win the Century Derby and then win the league title."
After the game against Santander, Yang Yang expressed his confidence in the upcoming game in an interview with the media, "Because the game at the Camp Nou, let us know how to win Barcelona also convinced us that we can beat Barcelona. "
What Yang Yang said is undoubtedly the five-to-zero away victory. This is a classic battle that has been recognized by countless media and Real Madrid fans and will be recorded in the club's history.
For his performance in La Liga this season, Yang Yang said he was very satisfied and very happy.
"I have a group of very good teammates, they are very supportive of me, and I am very happy to be part of Real Madrid, I will always hold my head high and greet a victory. We have the strength to win, we will It ’s the consensus of everyone in our dressing room to work hard all the time.

Yang Yang's position undoubtedly proves the unity and determination of Real Madrid's dressing room.
He also mentioned that the breakthrough in the Champions League results has brought tremendous confidence to the team, so that everyone began to believe in their own strength, which is also a great help for La Liga.
"This is the source of our confidence in winning the championship!" Yang Yang laughed confidently.
For his own number of shots in La Liga this season, only 99, four times less than Messi, but the number of goals is 34 goals, seven goals more than Messi, the efficiency is very amazing, Yang Yang said I still need to continue to work hard.
"In fact, my teammates have created a lot of opportunities for me. They are willing to give me the ball, which represents their trust in me, so I will take every shot seriously, and I am also happy to take Pass the ball to a teammate with a better position. "
The media also affirmed Yang Yang's remarks, because his assists reached 22 goals, and relatively speaking, Messi's assists are only nine goals, which is quite a gap.
Regarding what the media said, he supported the face of Real Madrid's high-priced legion. Yang Yang denied that he repeatedly emphasized that the team's ability to go to today is entirely dependent on the joint efforts of the team's players.
"There is only one Yang Yang, Real Madrid will definitely not go today, we need everyone to work together to win the game."
Yang Yang expressed his affirmation that the team has been getting better and better since the winter break.
"We have solved some of the problems that have occurred before, and our attitude towards each game is also more positive. I think this is the key factor for the team to perform well and insist on going to today."
For the next century derby, Yang Yang said that no one is a big hit.
"Both teams are clearly at their best. I think it is very appropriate for the Century Derby to arrive at this time, because there is no Champions League this week, we will focus more on the game, and I can 100% Definitely, our team will complete a wonderful matchup and will defeat Barcelona! "
...
Yang Yang interviewed after the Santander Athletic match, encouraged the team up and down, and made all Real Madrid fans around the world feel excited, because they are eager to see Real Madrid double play Barcelona.
This will be something that fans have longed for in the past years, but it has never been possible.
More importantly, after defeating Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid will basically lock the La Liga championship.
What the outsiders did not know is that, after playing Santander the next day, after the team returned to Valdebebas, Benitez once again convened a tactical meeting and gave this meeting Set a theme.
"How to stare at Messi?"
Before the discussion began, Benitez let everyone watch the video of the game of Barcelona vs. Arsenal.
In this game, Messi staged his senior year and performed very well.
In a competition level such as the Champions League quarter-finals, the big four is staged. This can be said to be quite an amazing thing, and it can also be seen how good Messi is at this moment.
How to restrict Messi?
How to suppress Barcelona's midfield pass and control?
Real Madrid players discussed this issue. Many players mentioned their defensive strategy when they met Messi in the past.
Aveloya offered to take the initiative and felt confident that he would restrict Messi.
"I played a few games with him, so far he hasn't taken a fraction of the advantage from me." The Real Madrid's youth training team said with a fist.
Whether it is in Liverpool or Real Madrid, Aveloja defense Messi can be said to be very successful.
If you can, Benitez will definitely choose.
In the first round of the century derby, Aveloya played the left back, but this time it may not work.
Pepe missed the season early due to injury. In the center position, except for Fermalen and Ramos, there is only one Metzelder, but the problem is that Benitez does not trust Metzelder.
He believes that the tall German central defender is very disadvantaged in the face of the small and cheerful Barcelona.
When there is no one on the right, letting Aveloa play on the left will cause the right to be empty.
Rasdiala put forward another idea, he felt that he could be qualified for the right back position, because he had played in this position.
But in this way, the four positions in the back line have changed two positions at the same time, which is very risky.
In particular, consider that Barcelona's left Pedro and Henry are also strong.
It should also be noted that this season, Guardiola's use of Messi is very different from before. He often puts him in the middle of the road and adopts a forward tactic. This is undoubtedly Real Madrid needs to pay attention to.
The reason why Benitez does not consider Metseld is because he is worried about Messi appearing in the middle.
Real Madrid has also made sufficient preparations for Messi's situation in the middle, such as how the team should limit Messi's range of activities and space, reduce his contact with his teammates, and prevent the Barcelona passer from passing the ball to Messi's feet.
As long as Messi couldn't get the ball, he would be useless no matter how brave he was.
It can be said that limiting Messi is the top priority of Real Madrid's defense against Barcelona.
The same way, I believe that at this moment, Barcelona must also be working hard to formulate a strategy to limit Yang Yang.
Yang Yang and Messi, the top stars of Real Madrid and Barcelona respectively, as long as they are frozen, the attack power of both teams will be greatly affected.
The difference is that Barcelona ’s overall transmission and control system is better, and the players ’overall cooperative combat capabilities are stronger. This requires Real Madrid ’s defensive players to maintain concentration, ensure defensive presence, ensure defensive strength, and also in defensive Try to avoid making mistakes and keep the three lines in a compact and orderly position.
Benitez also mentioned another problem, that is, he must not lose the ball in his own half.
"As soon as the ball is grabbed and kicked forward, the goal is Ibrahimovic!"
The Swedish giant is Real Madrid's fulcrum in the frontcourt. As long as he can grab the ball, Real Madrid's counterattack will fall.
Therefore, to a certain extent, Real Madrid's real test against Barcelona in this century derby is defense.
As long as he can hold it, with the strength of Yang Yang and Ibrahimovic, the offense can certainly create a threat.
