Chapter 1317 Make Enrique vomit blood!

The two-week national team match day was a bit dull.

Although Yang Yang did not return to China to compete, the Chinese team is the runner-up of the World Cup. The strength and confidence of the players lies there. First, they beat Bhutan [-]-[-], and then defeated Hong Kong, China [-]-[-].

Wu Lei, who replaced Yang Yang, shined in both games and performed exceptionally well.

Wu Lei's performance in La Liga is also remarkable. In the Spaniard, he has completely established his foothold and played the main force. At the age of 24, he is beginning to usher in the golden period of his career. If he can work harder, he may not have the opportunity to play for a big team in the future. The key is to see his future development and progress.

Although Yang Yang did not return to China to compete, he is not idle in Madrid.

Apart from staying at home with his wife and children for two days a week, he spends the rest of the time in Valdebebas. In addition to training with Casemiro and other players who have no national team missions to keep in shape, he also holds meetings with Zidane and other first-team coaching staff to study Barcelona and deduce the upcoming derby of the century.

Pre-match preparation is very important, and deduction of various situations that may arise during the game is the key. Only in this way can you avoid being caught off guard by your opponent during the game.

In many cases, the team not only has to deduce that the team is leading, but also deduces that the team is behind, when it is behind, and how many goals are behind. These all need to be prepared in advance, and there are some common accidents in the game.

All in all, pre-match preparation is essential, but it is an extremely test of the skill of the coaching staff.

Almost all famous European coaches are good at pre-match preparation. Both Yang Yang and Zidane are stars with rich career experience. They have also experienced many top coaches, and naturally they have learned a lot.

……

After the two-week national team match day ended, Real Madrid players returned to Madrid one after another.

The farthest is the South American international. Not only did they travel long distances, but the games in November were all strong-to-strong dialogues.

On November [-]th, Argentina played against Brazil at home. This game ended in a [-]-[-] draw and shook hands. In the Real Madrid team, Mascherano and Di Maria both played the whole game on behalf of the Argentine national team.

Marcelo was not included in the Brazilian national team list due to injury. Although Danilo entered the list, he did not get a chance to play in this game. On the contrary, Barcelona's Alves and Neymar played the whole game.

On November 1, Brazil defeated Peru [-]-[-] at home. Alves and Neymar played the whole game again, but Danilo still didn't play for a minute; Colombia lost [-]-[-] at home to Brazil, Mascherano and Di Maria played the whole game again.

Among them, Colombian international James Rodriguez also played both games.

Although the game was finished on NO.17, the national team was not disbanded until NO.18, and then the players began to take their own flights to return to Europe. However, due to long-distance travel and other factors, Mascherano and Di Maria did not arrive in Madrid until the morning of NO.20. Although they returned to the team for training immediately, their status could not be guaranteed.

This situation is not just Real Madrid, almost all teams with South American internationals will be affected by this.

In Valdebebas, the first thing for all international players after returning to the team is a physical examination, and then they are inspected by the coaching staff during training. Both Zidane and Yang Yang want to see which players are in better condition and which ones need to be adjusted.

But time waits for no one, and the footsteps of the Century Derby are getting closer.

On the afternoon of the 18th, Luis Enrique held a pre-match press conference in Barcelona, ​​announcing the team's [-]-man roster for Madrid, and Messi was on the list.

Since he was injured in Las Palmas, this is the first time that Messi has appeared in Barcelona's lineup. Everyone is looking forward to his appearance in this game, and he will smash against Real Madrid to get his shame.

Messi himself is also eager to try and really wants to perform at the Bernabéu.

Luis Enrique is delighted with Messi's comeback. He has repeatedly emphasized that Messi is the most important player in Barcelona. It is very important for Barcelona to be able to come back before the crucial derby of the century.

But on the other hand, Luis Enrique is still ambiguous about whether Messi will start, and has not disclosed any accurate news.

Real Madrid can't guess how Luis Enrique will deal with it, so they can only make two-handed preparations.

Zidane also announced the 18-man roster for the Real Madrid Derby of the Century the day before the game. South American internationals including Mascherano, Di Maria and Suarez also appeared in the roster.

This also surprised many people, because in the first game after the national team competition in September and October in the past, all the South American internationals who participated in the national team competition did not play, so what about this time?

Although Real Madrid has a strong bench lineup, the international players such as Mascherano, Di Maria, James Rodriguez and Suarez are the important combat power of Real Madrid. It is okay to touch other teams, but they can play Barcelona...

In the past few years, every derby of the century has attracted the attention of the media and fans all over the world, especially this year.

This is the first derby of the century between Zidane and Yang Yang after coaching Real Madrid. Everyone wants to see whether the two rookie coaches can keep Real Madrid's performance advantage over Barcelona in the past few years?Will he be defeated in the derby of the century like Luis Enrique did back then?
And Barcelona seems to be quite worried that Real Madrid will play tricks before the game, so they did not come to Madrid in advance, but came to Madrid from Barcelona on the morning of the game.

When they walked out of the Madrid Capital Airport, every player had the belief of winning. When interviewed by the media, many players threatened to get their shame at the Bernabeu, beat Real Madrid and shorten the gap.

The media from all over the world also gathered in Madrid one after another, all scrambling to pay attention to this focus battle.

Everyone knows very well that this battle is bound to change the trend of the entire La Liga, because Real Madrid is already four points ahead of Barcelona. If Barcelona loses this battle, it will undoubtedly further widen the gap, which is quite unfavorable for Barcelona's next reversal.

Whether it is the media, fans, or the two participating teams, they all know very well that in La Liga, the result of the Century Derby often determines the La Liga champion.

Whoever can win the century derby will be the favorite to win the championship.

And this game attracted nearly 180 countries and regions to broadcast, and it is estimated that more than 700 million people will watch the live broadcast. More than [-] reporters from [-] media came to the Bernabéu Stadium to watch the game.

Madrid officials also attached great importance to this. More than 500 police officers, [-] security guards, [-] ambulances, and [-] Red Cross staff were dispatched. A quarantine area was set up outside the Bernabéu Stadium. Vehicles were banned in the center of Madrid that night. It can be said that the power of Spain was used.

Not only that, the Spanish royal family, headed by Juan Carlos I, all came to watch the scene. Prime Minister Rajoy also brought government officials to the scene to supervise the battle, and other Spanish and European political and business celebrities were even more extraordinary.

This is not just a duel between Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​but also a top-level feast for European football and fans all over the world.

…………

…………

When Yang Yang and his teammates finished the last warm-up training session before the match at the Bernabeu and returned to the locker room, they were immediately called to the coaches' rest area by Zidane.

Real Madrid finally got Barcelona's starting lineup.

Goalkeeper Bravo, Alba, Mathieu, Pique and Alves in the defense, Iniesta, Busquets and Rakitic in the midfield, and Neymar, Cristiano Ronaldo and Sergi Roberto in the frontcourt.

"Messi did not appear in the starting lineup." Zidane scratched his bare head and said.

This is not surprising, as Real Madrid has long been prepared for this.

"It can be seen that Luis Enrique has the same idea as ours. He always chooses the best player instead of the strongest player. He has finally begun to understand how to play the derby of the century." Yang Yang laughed.

If Luis Enrique still lets Messi start, Barcelona's cards will look very strong, but in fact, how much Messi's state can be restored is an unknown, and it is estimated that even Barcelona itself is not very sure.

If it is against other teams, it is no problem to let Messi play, but against Real Madrid and the Derby of the Century, Enrique must weigh whether he has such confidence.

The derby of the century has never been just three points, but also just the six-point gap that comes and goes. There is more significance behind it. Enrique obviously knows this, so he dare not take the risk on Messi.

"If I were Enrique, I would do the same thing. Messi won't start, but he will come off the bench. It should be around 10 minutes." Yang Yang guessed.

Sixty-ten minutes is a very common substitution time. The reason why Yang Yang guessed that Messi will play at this time is because it leaves Messi three-ten minutes of game time, which is neither too long nor too short.

Too long is not good, it is unfair to the starting players, too short is not conducive to Messi's integration into the game and his strength, three to 10 minutes is just right.

This is why many head coaches like to make substitutions on the 10th and [-]th minute.

"Then let's stay the same and use that trick against Barcelona!" Zidane said with a smirk.

If France Bald Qiang's smile is seen by the media and fans, it will definitely ruin his image completely, what a rogue.

"Blanco was already furious at you before, will Enrique vomit blood directly tonight?" David Bertoni had an expression of fearing that the world would not be chaotic.

Yang Yang and Zidane looked at each other, they both sensed the confidence in each other's eyes, and they all laughed in unison.

For this game, they are very confident and determined to win!
I just hope that Enrique doesn't really vomit blood.
