Chapter 670: Fighting for Honor

When the dust settled for the quarter-finals of the Champions League, the Spanish Rental Association also decided to adjust the time of the Copa del Rey final, because both Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid are very likely to enter the semi-finals of the Champions League.eulogy

The domestic cup final was originally scheduled for Saturday, April 4, but considering that the first round of the semi-finals on the 19nd and 22rd will start, in order to allow about a week of rest, it was finally decided to advance to Wednesday, 23th.

At the same time, the 34th league round of the two teams that week will be scheduled to be completed on May 5. All in all, everything is for better results in the Champions League.

At present, Real Madrid has no intention of considering these things. They are about to usher in the 29th round of the century derby in La Liga, and they will play against Barcelona at home.

Although winning this contest is not obvious for the Catalan team to compete for the championship, the more they do this, the more they need to win, otherwise they will not be able to explain to the fans and the club's senior management.

According to media reports, the newly appointed Barcelona chairman Bartomeu has issued a death order to coach Martino and must win the game!

Unlike Laporta or Rosell, who hides his sword behind his smile, Bartomeu has shown a stronger performance. He has been in charge of the club and has done many major things arbitrarily since he took charge of the club, including the transformation of the youth training camp, signing plans and so on.

Rijkaard, the former AC Milan superstar and former Barcelona coach who just announced his retirement, expressed his deep sympathy. "Sitting in the Barcelona coach at the moment is like dancing on a sword. I understand Herardo's feelings very well."

The Dutch made a lot of achievements as a player, and he led the team to the semi-finals when he coached the Dutch national team when he was just a fledgling.

Entering Barcelona allowed him to reach the pinnacle of his coaching career. He won two La Liga titles in 04 and 05, and reached the Champions League final in 06. Unfortunately, he met Inter Milan led by Wang Feng.

Since then, the Chinese superstar has become a nightmare of his life, almost destroying Barcelona's "Dream Second Dynasty" almost by himself, and Rijkaard's coaching journey has also come to an end.

After that, he moved to Galatasaray and the Saudi national team, both of which were dismissed due to poor performance, and he never lost the magical record of the year.

At the retirement briefing, Rijkaard admitted frankly that he once resented Wang Feng, and also complained about unfair fate and bad luck, but now he has let go of it.

"Wang's greatness surpasses everything. Even though he is unwilling to be reconciled as an opponent and a loser, he can still leave his name in history. From this point of view, my coaching is not useless."

.........eulogy

The Barcelona group who stayed in the hotel near the Bernabéu Stadium felt very complicated. The noise of the home fans once hindered the rest seems to have become history.

The quiet environment couldn't calm everyone down, but it was more like a silent mockery, mocking them for easily losing to their sworn enemies without using off-the-chart tricks.

The players tossed and turned, and the coaching staff discussed the tactical arrangements overnight, insisted on their own deep play, or continued the old way of passing and controlling?Martino is difficult to make a decision, he only knows that the abyss is in front of him, and if he is not careful, he will be lost forever.

"There is no way to slow down the pass!" the assistant coach complained: "The outside world always feels that we have abandoned the tradition and changed Barcelona beyond recognition, but have they ever thought that Xavi and Iniesta are getting old and their state is not good enough?" Falling with the sun?"

The Argentine coach closed his eyes in pain: "No, they didn't expect it. They are consciously ignoring the fact that Barcelona is in decline, and the Spanish national team based on it still maintains a strong posture. The glory of defending the European Cup has not dissipated."

"Maybe only after this year's World Cup will everyone realize it. I'm sure Spain won't be far behind!"

Martino knows that there is no problem with seeking change. The biggest crux is that Messi is not used to the long pass, direct pass and rushing style of play. He prefers to slowly penetrate the organization.eulogy

After discussing for a long time, a good solution was still not reached. To be safe, Martino decided to put the Argentine star in his most comfortable center, with Suarez and Neymar acting as the two wings.

This can not only increase Messi's room for movement, but also strengthen the side impact and offensive firepower. It can be regarded as an excessive tactic between pass control and depth.

.........

"Friends from the audience, the world-renowned Clasico was staged at the Bernabeu. Real Madrid defeated Barcelona twice this season, and overwhelmed them to win the Spanish Super Cup and the top spot in the league."

"If they win this round of the game, they will be able to achieve the achievement of killing the season and completely trample the deadly enemy under their feet. This is what Barcelona fans don't want to see anyway, so we can foresee how exciting the contest will be."

"After the start of the game, the visiting team quickly took control of the ball. They seem to have returned to the era when they fully controlled the situation, and the home team stepped up their efforts to counter-grab."

"Real Madrid's tactical strategy is not to blindly shrink the defense and wait for the counterattack. It looks more active. The center and front will form a partial press, and limit the enemy by reducing the space for movement."

"This is a test of the Barcelona players' ability to handle and pass the ball, oh? Look at this attack!"

Mascherano passed it to Busquets from the backcourt, and the latter passed it to Iniesta accurately under the attack of Higuain and Wang Feng. .

The Brazilian striker and Messi formed a collision with the wall to kill near the penalty area, and then kicked the ball back. Suarez, who followed up, jumped up and slammed the ball with a header. The ball went straight to the upper left dead corner.

"The goal has been scored! Just in the 7th minute of the game, the Uruguayan striker opened the scoring for Barcelona!"

"A wonderful pass and penetration, and finally Neymar found Suarez, who headed the ball from close range quickly and urgently. Casillas could barely make a save, but could not prevent the ball from entering the net!"

"Starting from the backcourt, the visiting team's consecutive passes are quite threatening. This is also the hidden danger brought by the Galaxy Battleship's choice of active pressing tactics. The interception of penetrating passes is greatly reduced."

"Suarez's sense of grabbing points and physical fitness are very good, and he stuck Ramos in a perfect position to head the ball perfectly."

"Today, the three players on Barcelona's forward line were very active. Messi's flexibility has been greatly improved after returning to the familiar center. It is his support that gives Neymar a chance to pass."

After scoring the goal, the Uruguayan striker quickly ran to the stands and yelled at the Bernabéu fans. Although he has not joined the Catalan team for a long time, he deeply felt the tremendous pressure brought by Real Madrid.

Barcelona will fight for honor in this game!

His behavior naturally caused great dissatisfaction among the fans of the home team. Everyone responded with boos, and many people called Wang Feng's name.

Conceding the ball so early is indeed somewhat beyond the expectations of the fans, but they have become very patient over the years. The players on the field will not give up until the last moment, so why should they be discouraged early.

Therefore, Suarez's idea of ​​attacking the arrogance of the home team failed, but instead further aroused the unyielding will in his heart, and the momentum of cheering and cheering was even worse.

The Bernabéu never surrenders!eulogy
