Chapter 881 Crisis
Yang Yang's injury hit Real Madrid very hard, especially in terms of the team's offense.

Losing one of the most important offensive firepower points in the frontcourt and the team's best assister, any team's offense will inevitably have to be readjusted, and this has seriously affected Real Madrid's game.

After losing at home to Osasuna, Real Madrid ushered in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League group stage with a five-point disadvantage and challenged Twente in the Eredivisie League away.

Unfortunately, in the away game, although Kaka scored a goal for Real Madrid in No. 133 minutes, Twente then scored two goals in a row to reverse the score. In the end, Ibrahimovic equalized the score in No. 401 minutes.

In the end, Real Madrid played two games away to Pintwinter.

In the first game of the group stage, they failed to win the relatively weak Twente, and Real Madrid was not satisfied with the result of the game.

……

Back in La Liga, Real Madrid challenged Real Sociedad away.

The first half of the game was not going well, but in the second half, Real Madrid reversed the first half. First, David Silva passed the ball, Di Maria broke into the left side of the penalty area, and volleyed the ball with his right foot to break the deadlock on the field.

Then Real Sociedad pulled back a game, and Griezmann assisted Tamudo to equalize the score, but Real Madrid soon took advantage of a free kick in the frontcourt, and central defender Pepe scored with a header to surpass the score again.

In the end, Real Madrid beat Real Sociedad [-]-[-] away.

But at the same time, Barcelona beat Atletico Madrid [-]-[-] away, Messi scored the opening goal.

……

In the middle of the week, in the fourth round of La Liga, Real Madrid played against the Espanyol at home.

In the No.208 minute of the first half, Real Madrid temporarily took the lead [-]-[-] with Robben's goal.

But after changing sides in the second half, Pepe fouled Callejon twice within 5 minutes and got consecutive cards. He accumulated two yellow cards and was sent off by a red card. Real Madrid had one player less than their opponents, but soon, the Spaniard's Garland was also sent off directly by a red card.

No. 708 minutes, Real Madrid counterattacked, Kaka went straight to the left side of the penalty area, Ibrahimovic pushed from the left rib and scored, expanding the score to [-]-[-].

In the 809th minute, Xavi Alonso and Marcelo hit the wall continuously and passed diagonally to the left. Higuain, who came off the bench, scored with a low shot and locked the score at [-]-[-]. The Spaniard's player Flynn also protested after conceding a goal and was sent off after accumulating two yellow cards.

In the end, Real Madrid defeated the Spaniard [-]-[-] at home, but the three red cards caused a lot of controversy after the game.

In another game at the same time, Barcelona relied on Villa's lore goal to beat Sporting Gijon [-]-[-] at home, and continued to maintain a five-point lead over Real Madrid.

……

On the weekend, the fifth round of La Liga.

Barcelona were beaten [-]-[-] away with goals from Seydoux Keita, Xavi and Busquets.

Real Madrid suffered a [-]-[-] draw with Levante in the away game.

After five rounds, Barcelona won all five games and got [-] points, while Real Madrid got two wins, two draws and one loss, only got eight points, a full seven points behind.

After this round of competition, Real Madrid coach Benitez encountered a coaching crisis, especially Benitez's training on the offensive end, which caused dissatisfaction from the outside world and fans.

Sitting on top European midfielders such as Ibrahimovic, Kaka, Arjen Robben, Di Maria, David Silva and Harvey Alonso, the result is a sluggish offensive performance, which is unreasonable anyway.

Benitez said at the post-match press conference after the draw with Levante that Yang Yang's absence had a huge impact on Real Madrid, but in any case it could not calm the dissatisfaction of Real Madrid fans.

The Real Madrid coach heard the dismissal for the first time after more than a year in charge of the team.

……

Eight points behind Barcelona in La Liga, but back in the Champions League, Benitez's team quickly ushered in a big victory.

Relying on Zlatan Ibrahimovic's hat-trick and Kaka's goal, Real Madrid defeated Werder Bremen [-]-[-] at home and won their first victory in the UEFA Champions League group stage this season, playing a hearty victory.

Benitez also relied on this game to once again confirm his reputation as the king of the cup. When he returned to the Champions League, Real Madrid immediately recovered their best offensive state and temporarily eased the crisis of the head coach.

Interestingly, back in La Liga, Real Madrid ushered in Deportivo at home.

Real Madrid, who had just won four goals in the Champions League, had nothing to do with Deportivo, who defended tenaciously at the Bernabéu. The two sides finally shook hands and made a [-]-[-] draw. Real Madrid encountered another draw this season.

With two consecutive zero-to-zero games, everyone can see that Benitez's team does have some problems on the offensive end, especially in the face of a tightly defended team. Without Yang Yang, a sharp weapon, Real Madrid's offensive threat is also greatly reduced.

However, due to Barcelona's poor performance in this round, they drew Real Mallorca [-]-[-] at home, which made the media and fans more tolerant of Real Madrid's draw, but doubts about Benitez became louder.

The focus is on the team's offense.

Sitting on the most luxurious offensive lineup in the world, but two consecutive rounds of zero to zero, this is not justified anyway.

…………

…………

During the two-week national team match day, the Valdebebas training base in Madrid was empty. Only the medical department continued to work, especially the rehabilitation physiotherapy center.

On an instrument similar to a treadmill, Yang Yang firmly grasped the armrests on both sides, watching the airbags wrapped around his waist rapidly inflate and continue to expand, while the body weight on his feet also continued to decrease.

This is a brand-new rehabilitation physiotherapy instrument called a microgravity stepper. As the name suggests, it can release upward wind force on the user's waist through the airbag, simulating the state of astronauts' weightlessness in space, and then reduce their own weight on the legs, which can be reduced by up to 80.00%.

Yang Yang is now practicing stepping in this 20.00% gravity situation.

This is the first time he has started rehab after 20 days of injury.

The Real Madrid medical team attached great importance to this. Carlos Dias accompanied him throughout the process. Su Ye and Winston Bogard also stood aside, looking at Yang Yang on the stepper with great concern, watching him take every step carefully, a bit like a baby learning to walk.

Since arriving in Madrid in mid-September, Su Ye only made a trip back to the United States halfway to deal with some matters, and filmed the rest of the plot by the way. After that, she stayed in Madrid wholeheartedly, accompanying Yang Yang to heal his injuries.

Winston Bogard also flew directly from China to Madrid to take care of Yang Yang after he was injured, and he is now also an important member of Yang Yang's rehabilitation team, participating in Yang Yang's treatment and rehabilitation plan throughout.

Although the gravity is only 20.00%, after walking for a while, Yang Yang is already dripping with sweat.

Everyone has no doubt that if it is under normal gravity, let alone walking for a long time, even just standing, it is estimated that Yang Yang will feel overwhelmed.

When the time came, Su Ye immediately came over and wiped the sweat off Yang Yang's head and face with distress.

"How is it?" asked Winston Bogard with concern.

Yang Yang nodded, "It was a little stiff at first, but I didn't feel any pain."

He was talking about his right ankle.

"Judging from the results of the filming, the recovery is very satisfactory, and the progress is faster than we thought before." Carlos Diaz is also very happy with the progress of Yang Yang's injury, because as a doctor, especially a fan of Real Madrid, he hopes to see Yang Yang return to the game as soon as possible.

Losing Yang Yang is like a disaster for Real Madrid.

In the home draw with Deportivo, the Bernabéu stadium has already sounded the booing of getting out of class. Obviously critical Real Madrid fans are not satisfied with Benitez's coaching performance this season.

Indeed, such a start does not look like a team that aspires to defend the championship should perform.

Real Madrid is still the previous Real Madrid, at best, Sneijder was replaced by David Silva and Kaka, but the performance of the team is very different, and the gap is caused by Yang Yang.

"Then can I come back early?" Yang Yang asked anxiously.

Carlos Dias and Winston Bogarde looked at each other, and both smiled wryly at the same time.

Everyone at Real Madrid, including the media and fans, is looking forward to Yang Yang's return as soon as possible, but Florentino and the management have given the medical team a death order, and the injury must be healed.

You know, how many talented players in European football fall to injuries every year?
Florentino even said that even if Real Madrid is empty-handed this season, they will let Yang Yang recover from his injury.

This is the unshakable number one superstar in the Real Madrid team in his mind for the next five years, or even ten years.

However, Yang Yang's injury did bring many variables to the team. For example, everyone on the team clearly realized that Benitez's offensive training was indeed worrying.

In the past, Yang Yang used his outstanding performance to cover up the team's weak attack, but when Yang Yang was injured and absent, Real Madrid's offensive firepower so far this season is really unsatisfactory.

The [-]-[-] victory over Werder Bremen was in the Champions League, which is Benitez's home court.

"Don't worry too much." Winston Bogard patted Yang Yang's shoulder with a smile, "Your most important task right now is to heal your injuries. You don't have to think about anything. Our preliminary estimate is that you will have to wait at least half a month, or even a month, before you can truly recover, and then you can participate in training, but you have to start training alone."

"That's right, there is also your physical condition. You have gained weight recently and are overweight. Then you must have some physical training to find your condition." Carlos Diaz also persuaded.

There is no rush to heal an injury, as it will easily cause future troubles.

Yang Yang also understood this point, so he didn't say anything more, and he didn't want to come back in a hurry, but left a hidden danger of injury that might follow him for the rest of his life.
