Chapter 1660 The Battle of the Young Marshals
With a [-]-[-] victory over Barcelona at home, Yang Yang's team caused an earthquake in the entire European football world.

They beat Barcelona in two games. Whether facing domestic opponents like Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, or facing European powerhouses like Paris Saint-Germain and Dortmund, Real Madrid has shown a strong overall strength and is very stable.

After the game, the Catalan media attacked Setien one after another, believing that his poor coaching was the main reason for Barcelona's disastrous defeat in the two rounds, especially the poor formation when facing Yang Yang.

"Abandoning the traditional four-three-three and giving up the advantages of passing and possession is tantamount to suicide!"

"The main reason why Barcelona chose Setien is that he is good at passing and controlling the ball, but when facing Real Madrid, he chose to be conservative, which made him suffer a great shame in the away game!"

On the contrary, the media such as Marca and Aspen, which are close to Real Madrid, sang praises to Yang Yang's Real Madrid, thinking that the team's performance throughout the season was very stable, just like Yang Yang's playing style.

"Real Madrid coached by Yang Yang is like him when he was playing football. He is always reliable at critical moments!"

"He never disappoints!"

In Europe, German Bild, L'Equipe and Gazzetta dello Sport were also surprised by Real Madrid's performance this season. They said that after the Bernabeu's [-]-[-] victory over Barcelona, ​​there is no suspense about the title of La Liga this season, and Real Madrid has won the championship ahead of schedule.

"Real Madrid is the best, Barcelona is far behind, and Atletico Madrid is ranked sixth in the league. At least from the current point of view, no team has the strength to challenge Real Madrid. The La Liga championship has firmly fallen into the hands of Yang Yang."

Not only La Liga, the British Times analyzed that Real Madrid is facing a very interesting situation this season.

With La Liga gaining an early advantage, the Copa del Rey is basically in Yang Yang's pocket.

Because among the four teams that have reached the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey, there is no suspense that Real Madrid defeated Mirandez to enter the final. It is difficult for the winners of Athletic Bilbao and Granada to challenge Real Madrid. Therefore, the Copa del Rey has actually almost fallen into the hands of Yang Yang.

"That is to say, this season has just entered March, but Real Madrid has already won the La Liga and Copa del Rey championships ahead of schedule!"

This made The Times amazed by Yang Yang's coaching. They believed that it was not just luck, but more importantly, Yang Yang's integrated team strength and Real Madrid's generous investment.

"But you must know that among the players that Real Madrid spent a lot of money to introduce, Frankie De Jong, Militao, Jovic and De Ligt, who are currently making outstanding contributions to the first team, were all trained by Yang Yang."

The Times believes that Yang Yang is now facing an excellent god-sent opportunity, and that is the Triple Crown!
"Zidane won the Triple Crown in his first season of coaching, but everyone knows that it was based on the foundation of the dynasty created by Benitez and Ancelotti. However, Yang Yang helped Ajax create a miraculous Triple Crown in the first two seasons of coaching. If he is ordered to win the Triple Crown this season, he will become the most legendary coach in the history of world football!"

But the Times also reminded Yang Yang and Real Madrid that it is not easy for them to win the Champions League.

"Manchester City has been punished by UEFA this season and will miss European competitions in the next two seasons. This makes Guardiola and his team have to give it a go this season and do their best to compete for the Champions League."

"There are also teams such as Bayern Munich, Juventus and Liverpool that have performed well this season, all of which are fully equipped to compete with Real Madrid. As long as Yang Yang and Real Madrid are a little careless, they may miss great opportunities!"

But at the end of the article, The Times still expressed its affirmation of Yang Yang, believing that Yang Yang never disappoints people at critical moments.

Sure enough, Yang Yang proved this again in the subsequent second round of the Copa del Rey semi-final.
