i want to be king

Chapter 245 Isn't this plot too outrageous?
According to the consistent tradition, the entire Valencia team stopped training on Monday to rest, but Benitez specially took two days off in order to make the players more relaxed, so that everyone can adjust and rest.

Surprisingly, when Su Dong brought his personal trainer team to the Patna base for training, he found that his teammates arrived in Patna one after another, and they all consciously started training and preparing.

Everyone was tacit and didn't say anything. Anyway, when it's time to train, train and check. Everything is going on in an orderly manner as usual, as if the team has not stopped training.

But behind the calm, everyone in Valencia tensed up.

Against Real Madrid, it will be a decisive battle to determine the championship!

Not only the players came, but the coaching staff also went to work.

They were all surprised when they saw the players, because usually only a few players like Su Dong would come to train on the off-training day, but this time almost all of them came.

This also makes people see the determination and fighting spirit of the Valencia players.

If we say that all the staff are not there on Monday, then all will be in place on Tuesday.

The most gratifying thing is the return of Aimar and Pellegrino.

The former has already recovered from injury, but has not come back. This time against Real Madrid, Aimar will return from injury.

After Pellegrino suddenly fell into a coma against Malaga, after a period of observation, the doctor failed to find any problems. After a period of follow-up, it was determined that there was no serious problem, and he was given the green light to play.

Rufete also recovered, which also allowed Valencia to strengthen on the right.

Albelda suffered a sprained ankle and trained alone with Aurelio, but it did not affect his participation in the game against Real Madrid at the weekend.

It can be said that after the wave of injuries at the end of January and the beginning of February, Valencia is now basically fully staffed.

The next step is to adjust the state and go to face Real Madrid with the best posture.

……

The coaching staff is only responsible for training, but after training, the players will also arrange some team activities on their own.

For example, watch the live broadcast of Real Madrid vs. Sevilla in the second leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final on Wednesday night.

Saturday is the battle at the Bernabeu. Valencia players are very concerned about whether Real Madrid will do their best on Wednesday, as Queiroz said.

Judging from the starting lineup, there are actually not, but it's about the same.

All the superstars in the frontcourt played, only goalkeeper Iker Casillas rotated, and substitute goalkeeper Cesar started.

Beckham and Guti formed a double midfielder, which is also the main midfielder configuration of Real Madrid in recent times.

There are Zidane, Raul, Figo and Ronaldo in the frontcourt, and there is no suspense about this.

The back line is still Carlos, Raul Bravo, El Guerra and Salgado. Pavon is basically left in the cold palace, and his performance in the back line is really unreliable.

Sevilla just sold a general not long ago, that is, the left winger Reyes, who has performed very eye-catching this season, was bought by the Premier League Arsenal for a lot of money.

But Sevilla, who played at home, still surprised people from the beginning of the game.

In just 45 seconds of the opening, they launched an attack on the right. After Dario Silva got rid of Carlos, he crossed to the goal. Anthony didn't grab it. Instead, Antonio Lopez volleyed and scored.

This goal can be described as a blow to the head, a head start!

Leading in 45 seconds, this undoubtedly made Sevilla play more aggressively, even crazy.

The rhythm of the game was directly full, both sides played unconservatively, and Sevilla actively made articles from the wing, but the players who responded in the middle were a bit too wasteful of opportunities.

"Sevilla's top scorer this season is this Baptista, nicknamed the beast. He is a midfielder and is best at cutting in from the back. But from this, it can also be seen how bad Sevilla's forward line is."

Captain Albertini was not without regret when he saw Baptista frequently missed opportunities.

Although Baptista did score a lot, he wasted more opportunities.

The Brazilian midfielder was never a professional scorer.

Su Dong watched silently. Although he didn't express his opinion, he was sure. If it was him, not to mention all of them, but it was definitely possible to score one or two goals.

"Real Madrid's defense is still not solid. This set of double defensive midfielders has an advantage in possession of the ball, and the strength of the offensive players in the frontcourt is superior, but the problems in the midfield and backcourt are still very big, especially when facing the opponent's counterattack." Canizares also analyzed.

Everyone nodded.

It is an old problem of Real Madrid to focus on offense and neglect defense. It's just that with the transfer of Makelele this season, the shortage of midfielders has caused the defensive problem to be more obvious.

"Sevilla's flanks are still quite strong, that is, the center..." Aimar shook his head and sighed, "If the striker was replaced by Su, the total score would have been reversed long ago."

After hearing this, everyone nodded again.

Su Dong's scoring efficiency is still very high, at least much better than scorers like Sevilla.

On the contrary, Su Dong himself was a little embarrassed, because he really almost moved to Seville last summer.

"Real Madrid can't continue like this." Su Dong guessed.

But what I never expected was that during stoppage time in the first half, Zidane had a conflict with Sevilla defender Alfaro and hit the opponent.

All this happened under the nose of the referee, who immediately showed a red card without hesitation and directly sent off Zidane.

There was a wave of boos from the live TV, while Su Dong and others in front of the TV were dumbfounded.

This plot is too outrageous, right?
For no reason, why did Zidane do it all of a sudden?
"Wait, isn't he afraid? He doesn't want to meet us at the Bernabeu?" Vicente asked with a sudden smile.

After everyone heard this, they all laughed out loud, and only Su Dong was obviously stunned for a moment before he realized it.

is not that right?

Somewhat different from other countries' competition systems, Spain's suspension mechanism is a bit special.

In the Copa del Rey, if the game is suspended for accumulating yellow cards, it will not affect the league, only one Copa del Rey will be stopped; but if it is a direct red card, then one game of the league or Copa del Rey will be stopped directly.

In other words, after Zidane got this red card tonight, he will miss the weekend's top game.

Thinking of this, Su Dong was really surprised.

Is Zidane going to assist Valencia to break Real Madrid's golden stature at the Bernabeu and win the La Liga title?
The surrounding Valencia teammates are also very excited. After all, Zidane is the core of Real Madrid's offense. His absence is of great significance to Valencia.

But for Seville, it may not be so.

Zidane's red card woke up Real Madrid's stars.

At the beginning of the second half, Sevilla made a few threats and missed them, and then their defender Javi Navarro was also sent off by the referee after receiving a second yellow card.

The number returned to balance, but Real Madrid suddenly woke up.

Subsequently, Ronaldo almost scored twice, both of which were beautifully resolved by the goalkeeper.

In the end, Real Madrid lost [-]-[-] away, but successfully advanced to the Copa del Rey final with a total score of [-]-[-].

……

"The referee's second red card was a bit of a balance." Ayala sighed.

This is also a common thing.

"I think that Real Madrid has always taken advantage of the referee's enforcement, especially at the Bernabeu." Albelda felt aggrieved by this. "We have suffered a lot from the referee's enforcement in the past four Bernabeu games. If we suffer again this time, it will be the fifth consecutive time."

Su Dong has never experienced it, but many people, including Aimar, are aggrieved.

Obviously, for Valencia, this is a very painful memory.

"Since this is the case, why did the head coach specifically tell us not to discuss the referee before the game?" Su Dong was puzzled.

This is a request made by Benitez in the locker room before, prohibiting all players from discussing any topics related to the referee before the Bernabeu game.

Su Dong was very surprised by this. He didn't know it before. It turned out that Valencia had suffered a lot in the previous four visits to the Bernabeu.

"It's a silent protest, man!" said Albelda.

"Everyone knows that the best players in La Liga are in Real Madrid and Barcelona. A team like ours can only compete with them by fighting hard. Therefore, we always suffer from the referee's enforcement. This is most obvious in the Bernabeu and the Nou Camp."

Su Dong understood a little bit.

La Liga has always advocated beautiful offensive football, and is particularly obsessed with talented stars, so you can see a lot of geniuses in La Liga, and the referee's enforcement is often slightly biased towards those stars.

And I have to say that Real Madrid's influence in Spain is still very amazing. Not only the royal family, but even the prime minister is an open Real Madrid fan and often goes to the Bernabéu to watch games.

It is said that the prime minister and the royal family will also be present to watch the battle at the top of the list this time.

This is a special treatment that no other La Liga team can get.

"This time the situation is in our favor!" Su Dong said lightly.

Everyone looked at him and nodded.

On Wednesday, with one less player than the opponent, they fought hard for 10 and [-] minutes. Although they qualified for the Copa del Rey final, the consumption of Real Madrid stars will definitely be great.

Saturday is the top game, and Valencia is recharging their energy and waiting for work.

There is also Zidane's red card suspension, which has a great impact on Real Madrid's offense.

If you look at it this way, Valencia still has a certain advantage at the Bernabéu.

"Not to mention anything else, I think that since we can kill Real Madrid at the Mestagna Stadium, we can definitely beat them at the Bernabéu Stadium. As for the referee's law enforcement, we don't need to worry too much about it."

Su Dong's remarks were also recognized by his teammates.

"That's right, we're going to beat Real Madrid at the Bernabeu and win these three points!" Albelda's eyes were full of determination. He was a hardcore anti-Real Madrid member.

The same is true of other players in the Valencia team.

It can be said that Zidane's red card suspension made Valencia players more confident.
