Mister Legend

Chapter 602 A New Record Is Born

Although in history, it is not very rare for the top two teams of the Western Super League to have a big score in the national derby. Let alone a three-goal victory, the gap between four goals or even five goals can be seen every three or four years. Back, not particularly unusual.

However, the result of this Spanish Super Cup has attracted the attention of the entire European football world, because the loser is Barcelona, ​​which just won the Champions League just over two months ago. This is still in their transfer window this summer. The bloody case that occurred under the premise of a lot of reinforcements, it can't help but make people feel a little incredible.

What makes the Catalans even more unacceptable than the score of 3-0 is that the process of the game is also very different from the previous national derby script. After forcibly poaching the local midfielder Sergi from Atletico Madrid at a high price After O. Gomez, Barcelona's overall strength is considered by the outside world to be no less than that of the dream three dynasties with six championships a year, because their ability to pass and control has already surpassed blue in the eyes of many experts.

As a result, in this high-profile strong dialogue at the Bernabéu, facing the Real Madrid midfield line composed of Ndidi, Marcos Llorente and Febas, the visiting team's highly anticipated pass-and-control tactics can only Our side has shown in the backcourt, and it is simply impossible to send the ball into the opponent's dangerous area.

The super sweeping ability of the captain of the Nigerian national team made Sergio Gomez and Arthur suffer a lot. Barcelona's central attack was forced to fail to cooperate well throughout the game. , you can only find space for activities from the two side roads.And this kind of attack method is like a tasteless existence for them who are not very capable of grabbing points in front of the goal. It is tantamount to wishful thinking to defeat a powerful mortal enemy with this method.

On the other hand, for Real Madrid, although Endidi's first starting temporarily put Ceballos on the bench, which inevitably had an impact on the team's midfield organization, but it also strengthened their determination to focus on counterattacks. Take advantage of the players' strengths in speed and long passing.

Moreover, Asensio and Mbappe in the frontcourt also have excellent pass organization awareness and footwork. Pellegri, the spokesperson of the world wave who poses a threat to the opponent's goal, the power of this set of tridents is definitely the top in today's world football.

The result was not surprising. In the first half, Real Madrid scored two goals through an extremely sharp and fast counterattack after only four goals in the first half. The goals were scored by Pellegri and Mbappe.Especially for the first goal, the Italian center scored a stunning volley near the penalty spot after receiving a quick cross from his teammate from the right, which made the whole stadium boil.

In the No.701 minute of the second half, Rodrigo, who came off the bench, took advantage of the opponent's defensive player's mistakes and directly steals the ball in front of the penalty area, forming a one-handed situation.After passing the attacking Ter Stegen, he easily pushed the ball into the empty goal and helped the team completely seal the victory.

Judging from the content shown in this game alone, the newly crowned champion of the Champions League did not choose to rest on his laurels after reaching a pinnacle, but dared to boldly carry out a new update. Although it is commendable, the actual effect is not It is far from reaching the ideal state of the club, which has attracted heated discussions from many European media.

It was only after Barcelona beat last season's Europa League champion Tottenham Hotspur 4-1 in the UEFA Super Cup four days later that people seemed surprised to see another possibility, that maybe it wasn't Catalan. The Neah giants have become weaker, but Real Madrid have made great progress compared to last year, which was already very strong, which is a bit too scary.

As soon as this kind of argument came out, it caused a lot of controversy in the entire European football world. On the basis of almost winning the Triple Crown last season, it has been greatly improved, and there is still not much change in the main lineup. , On the premise that only one defensive midfielder has been added, this does not seem to be something that can be explained with conventional football knowledge.

This is like a good student who was able to score 660 points in the mock exam and has a good chance of being accepted by the top domestic famous universities like Tsinghua University and Peking University. Without special circumstances, he suddenly raised his score to 740 points. It is a bit ridiculous to directly kill the level of all champions.

If this is admitted, wouldn't it mean that Real Madrid will be invincible in the upcoming new season.

Therefore, most people still think that the reason why Barcelona's performance in the two Super Cups was so different is that their own state has not adjusted well, so that the performance on the court within four days has been relatively different. big difference.

It's just that this cognition was completely overturned as the curtain of the new season of La Liga kicked off and Real Madrid achieved a series of dazzling results one after another.At that time, people, especially non-Galaxy battleship fans, will admit in desperation that Li Moody's team has indeed become different from last season. On the premise that the offensive firepower has been strengthened, the defensive ability It has also become the world's top existence, which makes other teams how to play!
On August 8th, the opening game of the league, Real Madrid, who was at home as the defending champion, ushered in the not weak Villarreal, and encountered a small challenge at the opening.

As a result, after 10 minutes, the score of 5 to 0 surprised everyone who predicted that this would be a hard fight. Even Mei Linger, who had always believed that all three points could be scored, would have guessed ahead of time. This victory will come so easily.

And two weeks later, when the Galaxy Battleship won all the previous three league games, scored a total of 14 goals and did not concede a goal, and firmly occupied the top position of the standings, European football smelled that something big was about to happen. The taste that emerges.

In the nearly 14-year history of La Liga, the situation of three consecutive victories at the beginning is naturally extremely common, but it is the first time that it can achieve 1987 goal difference while still conceding zero goals. In the 88-18 season, Real Madrid once scored 40 goals in one breath in the first three league games of the season, but also had a record of losing a goal.As for the crazier than the "Five Eagles", only Seville in ancient times. In the early 25s, the strong team from Andalusia scored 4 goals and [-] goals in the first three league games. The legendary record of conceding goals is difficult for future generations to match.

It is their seniors who are far away from Real Madrid's near-extreme performance on both ends of offense and defense this year. 68 years ago, the champions of the Champions League with many legendary masters such as Di Stefano, Gento, Real and Kepa once scored 11-0 goals and conceded in three rounds of the league, but they also failed to win. It was slightly inferior to the group of disciples led by Li Mudi.

As the schedule continued to advance, people were horrified to find that not only did Real Madrid's winning streak not show signs of stopping, but they still maintained an invincible posture after the Champions League and the King's Cup also joined their journey. It is even more terrifying than the Arsenal team three years ago.

On September 9th, the Galacticos who returned from the national team match day immediately ushered in a wave of extremely difficult schedules, but their performance was no different from two weeks ago, as if most of the players in the team As if he didn't experience the pain of running around, he continued the previous fiery state.

In San Mames, one of the team's least favorite stadiums in the past, Real Madrid, who put in all their strength, had already achieved a huge three-goal lead by the time the half-time break came.And scored another goal in the second half, conquering the rebellious Basque Lions with a disparity of 4 to 0, and broke a big upset.

The so-called unpopularity does not mean that everyone is surprised that they can win the away game, but that the four-goal difference is indeed beyond the expectations of too many people. Even the gaming companies do not think that the leader of La Liga can achieve good results in a game that has always been difficult. The away game won such a big victory, so the odds of 1 to 32 were offered. As a result, more than a dozen Real Madrid fans who were brave enough and lucky enough got a lot of money, which became an event at that time. hot event.

And this fiasco seems to have had a huge impact on the morale of Athletic Bilbao, causing a long-term trough in the state of the players, causing the team's performance to decline all the way. The sixth position in the standings fell into the relegation circle, which laid the groundwork for the subsequent tragedy.

But that's all for later. Let's bring the topic back to Real Madrid. They started the Champions League copy four days later, and in the first game of the group stage they beat the Red Wolves 5-1 at the Stadio Olimpico in Rome. Almost by virtue of the victory in this battle, it was declared that they had secured the top spot in the group, and their prestige made the whole of Europe tremble.

After returning to the league, Li Moody led his team to win Real Betis, Real Sociedad and Celta Vigo one after another, and still maintained an excellent record of zero goals in La Liga, becoming the focus of the world's sports world.

In the first week of October, the Galaxy Battleship first slaughtered Maccabi Haifa, the weakest Israeli team in the Champions League group, with seven goals at home, and then went to the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium in the weekend league. Scored four goals in a row, making Atletico Madrid ashamed and almost ashamed.

It is a pity that their record of not conceding a goal ended in this Madrid derby. Team captain Varane made a misjudgment shortly after the start of the second half, and the home team forward Antonio Marin made a penalty on him. .Andre Lunin, who has gradually surpassed Courtois this season and is expected to become Real Madrid's main goalkeeper, failed to judge the direction and conceded the team's first goal in the league since the start of the season two months ago, which made everyone The Meilingers are quite sorry.

However, Li Mudi and his disciples quickly used one victory after another to make everyone forget the pain of the record being terminated. After many years, what remains deep in the fans' memory is only incomparable pride and crazy joy.

On October 10th, against the depressed atmosphere of the Spanish national team losing two consecutive games, Real Madrid, with many players absent due to injuries, defeated the visiting rival Valencia with two goals at home, which made everyone worried about them. Under the influence of the FIFA virus, supporters who encountered unexpected events took a reassurance.

What made the outside world talk about it after the game was that they claimed in an interview with the media that they would let everyone re-recognize their team's old player Oyar Sabal in the first game back to the Bernabeu. Alvaro Fernandez's markings did nothing, and he could only be substituted early in the second half at No. 604 minutes.However, his substitute, Cesar Herabert, implemented a wonderful consecutive dribble with his excellent foot skills before the end of the midfield, and assisted Rodrigo to complete the goal, allowing more than 8 home teams on the scene The fans applauded for 1 minute without hesitation, in response to Oyar Sabal's previous remarks with a lot of resentment.

In the days after this month, Li Moody continued to deploy troops and generals, and through a large-scale rotation strategy, he ensured that the players' physical and competitive conditions were always at a relatively high level. After the Turkish powerhouses Fenerbahce, Sevilla and Malaga, they will extend their official game winning streak to 2025 games in the 26-14 season (including 10 La Liga games, 3 Champions League games and 1 Spanish Super Cup) , Created a new record in the club's history.

And soon, Real Madrid ushered in another day to reach a new milestone. On November 11, when they defeated Alaves, the dark horse of this season and No.2 in the standings, 3-1 at home, they officially surpassed the 5-game winning streak in La Liga two years ago. Barcelona regained the record for the best start to their national league to their name.

In the 1968-1969 season, Real Madrid, led by the club's legendary coach Miguel Munoz, played an excellent performance of nine consecutive victories at the beginning and became the holder of this record. It was not until 55 years later that Ha David's Barcelona took over.

But the pride of the Catalans did not last long, because Moody Lee came, and his goal seemed to be more than turning 10 into 11.Judging from Real Madrid's current state and subsequent schedule, perhaps after substantially breaking the record for the longest winning streak at the start of the Premier League during his previous coaching of Arsenal, the Chinese coach has also developed a strong interest in this La Liga record.

As a result, no accidents happened. After welcoming back many wounded, the strength of the Galaxy Battleship quickly returned to their peak level. The terminator is very regrettable, but in the next three domestic league games, it did not give any opponent an opportunity to take advantage of it, and achieved a record of 14 consecutive victories like cutting melons and vegetables.

Then, after defeating Maccabi for the second time and qualifying for the Champions League knockout two rounds ahead of schedule, Real Madrid ushered in the first round of the national derby in La Liga this season on the last day of November.

Although the venue is the Nou Camp Stadium, where they have been unable to win for five consecutive years, all members of the team have great confidence in being able to return home victorious.All Real Madrid people firmly believe that this away trip will be a moment for them to create a new history. No one can stop the Galacticos from marching towards invincibility, and Barcelona is naturally no exception.
