Chapter 45 Fighting Barcelona

On November 11th, Real Madrid will usher in one of the most important games of the season-the 28th round of La Liga, and they will play away against Barcelona.

Real Madrid and Barcelona are one of the most famous rivals in the football world. There are at least two matches every year. From the fact that the battle between these two teams is called the national derby or even the century derby, it can be seen that the two teams are in Soccer matters.

And the so-called mortal enemy is the legendary "with you without me" - I can lose any game this season, except you.

The reason why Real Madrid and Barcelona have become mortal enemies is a bit complicated, and more or less related to politics-the Barcelona area wants to seek independence, and sometimes residents even publicly declare that they are Barcelona rather than Spaniards, and Real Madrid is The team in Madrid, the capital of Spain, is the most aristocratic and most popular team in Spain. Under such a political background, it is only natural that Real Madrid and Barcelona become sworn enemies.

Of course, in football, the word mortal enemy does not mean that two teams can be said to be mortal enemies if they dislike each other. There is another very important factor-the strength of the teams needs to be evenly matched, just like La Liga Real Madrid and Barcelona in the Premier League, Manchester United and Liverpool in the Premier League, Inter Milan and AC Milan in Serie A, this is why Real Madrid and Barcelona are called sworn enemies and Atletico Madrid and Barcelona are not said that, because Atletico Madrid's performance in recent years is really good. Can't compete with Barcelona.

Real Madrid's opening results this season are quite good, and it can even be said to be amazing-12 league games with 11 wins and 1 draw to remain unbeaten. If you count the Champions League and the King's Cup, Real Madrid has remained unbeaten in 17 consecutive games; The Cup and the Champions League have passed all the way to advance, and the league also topped the list with 34 points, followed by Barcelona. Their record is 10 wins and 2 draws, and the points are two points less than Real Madrid. Not being able to lose this duel between bitter rivals adds another reason - if they lose, they will lose the top spot.

This kind of achievement has made the Meilingers who have been waiting for many years hopeful. Real Madrid has declined badly in the past few years, and they have not tried this feeling of waiting for a long time. It's amazing, except for Meilinger, the outside world is not optimistic about Real Madrid's frontier in this game-Barcelona is now in the midst of the so-called dream three, and it is even so strong that the entire football world is for this team Go study Tiki-taka football tactics.

Tiki-taka's football tactics are actually football tactics evolved from "all-round football", that is, the so-called total football. It can be traced back to Barcelona between 1988 and 1996. Passing the ball and cooperating to disrupt the opponent's lineup and finally score a goal is actually to maximize the pass and control tactics.In the tiki-taka system, you often see this situation: the ball keeps passing around the field, and finally almost inexplicably ends up in the goal.

The advantages of TIki-taka are very prominent, and it once reached the point where there is no solution in football, but the disadvantages are also prominent-Tiki-taka requires a very high degree of tacit understanding between players, so almost all Barcelona players come from the same line Most of them enter the first team from the youth training, which makes it difficult to promote this tactic in football, and also has high requirements for players' personal abilities, talents, and dexterity. It takes a lot of geniuses to reach such a height. When this generation gets old and Barcelona is out of reach, the effect of Tiki-taka will be greatly reduced; Tiki-taka also requires players to run very high, so physical exertion is also very high. Big, to put it simply, when there is only one shot point around a person, the ball can only be played hastily and the possibility of being accurately intercepted by the opponent is very high. When there are four or five shot points around a person , he can choose and play the ball calmly, and it is difficult for the opponent to judge the route of your pass; and the most criticized point is that the rate of useless passes caused by the Tiki-taka tactic is also very high, which makes this tactic look good. Going up is inefficient.

Now Tiki-taka tactics are not unsolvable. Chelsea once led by Mourinho cracked this set of tactics of Barcelona and counterattacked with an extremely streamlined defense. Of course, if you want to say that the bus is placed in front of the goal It's okay - don't you like to control the ball, okay, I will retreat and hand over the field to you to control the ball. When you press up enough and play impatiently and the rear is empty, I will counterattack you. I don't Need extra ball possession, just one shot kills.

Mourinho has always been pragmatic. He doesn't need players to play smoothly and beautifully, as long as the players can win the game, do not violate the rules or violate sportsmanship, and play as they like.

A group of Real Madrid arrived in Barcelona by car. After entering the urban area of ​​Barcelona, ​​Yuntian held his chin and admired the city—this was his first time in this city.

Barcelona is indeed a world-renowned art palace. The urban construction is unique and the ancient buildings are well preserved. It looks really pleasing to the eye.Looking at it, Yuntian's thinking unconsciously turned to one side, remembering that Yun Ruo told him on the phone that many female fans in China think that Barcelona is a relatively barbaric and backward small city, because Barcelona's The players all look "short and poor", which is in stark contrast to the "tall, rich and handsome" Real Madrid.

Thinking of this, Yuntian couldn't help laughing, "short and poor" or something, because tactics require a lot of players' flexibility, and the height of Barcelona's players is really flawed, basically below 175. Except for the goalkeeper and Pique, there seems to be no more than 180.

While he was in a daze, a black shadow suddenly flashed in front of his eyes, Yun Tian turned his head reflexively, looked over in shock, and saw a tomato was smashed on the car window, and the bright red pulp and jam was slowly sliding down the glass .

Ramos, who was sitting in the back row, acted like an old senior, patted Yun Tian on the shoulder and said, "Young man, you are still a little tender, and you are scared by such a trivial matter?"

The corner of Yuntian's mouth twitched, and he looked out the window, only to find that the Real Madrid bus was already surrounded by lanes, and the fans of Barcelona were furious. If it wasn't for the police to stop them, they would have rushed up and smashed the bus with them. It's a mess.

It is said that the British fans are passionate, and it seems that the Spanish fans are not bad. The confrontation between the rivals is no worse than Manchester United and Liverpool.

"Fortunately, Madrid and Barcelona are so close that we can go back and forth in the same day, otherwise we won't have to sleep if we want to spend the night here," Marcelo also came over, "Barcelona fans don't have our Meilinger. So talented, I heard that in order to lower the state of the visiting team, they would beat gongs and drums around the hotel in the middle of the night and not let the visiting team rest."

Yun Tian didn't speak, but he thought that Mourinho was the most hated coach in Barcelona, ​​and he also coached the most hated team in Barcelona. There are extreme fans sneaking into the hotel to kill them.

"It's about Inter Milan, but it's not the same as losing if all the tricks are calculated," Ronaldo curled his lips, "Men should fight on the field, those who use these small tricks are self-provoking, and it's fine if they win , and finally lost the game, making people laugh for nothing."

"They can't do anything to win the game, even on the court. Their acting skills are so good that they could win an Oscar." Ramos was also a little resentful. As a defender, he has also suffered from many movie stars.

"In any case, their strength is worthy of our attention," Casillas said calmly, "Real Madrid's record against Barcelona in recent years has not been good, and it can even be said to be very bad. This year we are in good form. It’s time to take down the opponent in one go.”

"Don't worry Igor, we will definitely win this game!" Ramos responded forcefully.

Sitting at the front, Mourinho, who closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep, listened to the conversation, and the corner of his mouth curled up in a small, almost invisible arc. The players were very confident and morale. This is what a head coach would most like to see It's over.

All the way to the stadium in Barcelona amid the sound of swearing, everyone in Real Madrid listened to Mourinho's pre-war training while changing clothes. The tactical arrangements have already been made, and this routine training is just to boost morale.

"I think you all know that this is a game that can only be won. The gap between us and Barcelona is only two points. If we lose this game, we will give up the top position." Mourinho glanced After looking at the people in the locker room, he said without haste. This speed of speech made his words more like a rational analysis and more convincing.

"Although the schedule is one-third of the way, even if we fall behind, we still have the hope of continuing to catch up, but the difference between passively catching up and taking the initiative to score points, I don't think I need you to understand."

"Taking a step back, even if we can recover the points, what will the outside world think of us? We can't win against opponents of comparable strength, and we can only get points from some small teams. Cowards who bully the weak and fear the strong!"

"I'm very happy to be the most hated coach in Barcelona, ​​and I'm very happy to receive such a warm 'welcome' when I come to Barcelona, ​​because it shows that they dare not ignore me, or even fear me, because they are in my hands. There is almost nothing to gain, and to be honest, if it is not for the help of the referee, they will not get any benefit at all."

"This is my confidence and your confidence. We have made sufficient preparations for this game. As long as you perform well on the court, you can tell the world that Real Madrid is still the invincible Real Madrid that makes people fearful. The best football club in the world, the best football club in the 20th century is the glory of Real Madrid and will become the tradition of Real Madrid!"
