The Glory of the Godfather

The 13th round of La Liga in the 2008/2009 season is all over, and the standings are also out.

1. Ibiza, 35 points;

2. Barcelona, ​​29 points;

3. Villarreal, 27 points;

4. Valencia, 24 points;

5. Sevilla, 24 points;

6. Real Madrid, 23 points.

Yes, the front page of Marca uses the picture of the standings ranking, and connects the sixth-placed Real Madrid and the leader Ibiza with a bold red arrow, accompanied by the line: God, Warmly congratulate us 12 points behind the newly promoted!

What a frightening headline for Real Madrid fans.

Although everyone knows that Ibiza cannot be judged by the newly promoted body, this title still brings great shock to people.

The Real Madrid club criticized the Marca alarmist.

However, Marca has a tough attitude:

Is Ibiza a newly promoted?

yes!

So, is there something wrong with this title?

No!

Marca pointed the finger at Real Madrid chairman Calderon, calling on Calderon to take the blame and resign.

Indeed, Schuster has his shortcomings. The German madman is slow to respond on the spot, the tactical system is relatively monotonous, and he has lost the right to speak in the locker room. However, it is obviously not objective to place the responsibility for Real Madrid's sluggish record this season on Schuster. At least the extensive injuries are beyond the control of the Germans. What's more, Real Madrid executives failed to even bring Schuster the player he needed, and the German had no say in the transfer plan.

At the beginning of taking charge of Real Madrid, Schuster asked high-level executives to introduce Ballack and Diego, but Calderon and Mijatovic did not consider the candidates he recommended at all. This summer, Schuster asked the top management to introduce a young center forward, but Calderon only favored his beloved Ronaldo, which indirectly forced away Robinho, who Schuster relied on the most. Especially, Schuster didn't know that the Dutchman had become his disciple until after he reported. Real Madrid's downturn this season is due to the overall mistake of the high-level team building concept. Therefore, Marca believes that if the culprit is to be investigated, the leadership team headed by Calderon is obviously more qualified than Schuster .

Schuster's predecessor, Fabio Capello, brought the long-lost discipline and team spirit to Real Madrid. The Italians were expected to create a dynasty belonging to the Bernabeu. But Calderon felt that Capello's cards were too big and difficult to control. The chairman of Real Madrid dismissed Capello hastily and activated the unknown Schuster. Schuster did not have any innovations in tactics, but his temper was no smaller than Capello's. It was only a matter of time before the Germans parted ways with Calderon. In this case, Real Madrid's tactical system and personnel composition can only be rebuilt again and again, which is obviously not good for the team's growth. Maybe what Real Madrid really need is an excellent president who respects the laws of football

This time, for the first time, Marca publicly called out the name that Real Madrid fans missed: Florentino!

...

Aspen continued to support Calderon, the newspaper continued to bombard Schuster, that the coach should be held accountable.

The newspaper's point of view is that although Calderon is not the best, it is definitely not the worst. The worst one is Schuster.

The Catalan media, which is not too serious to watch the excitement, made in-depth reports on this. Mundo Deportivo believes that the 15th round of La Liga on December 13 when Real Madrid will challenge Barcelona's Spanish national derby will decide Shun. Stell's fate.

However, Daily Sports believes that the time will be earlier. The newspaper believes that the Real Madrid member meeting on December 7 is the critical moment. Daily Sports analyzes that before the general meeting, Calderon needs to have Schuster as a scapegoat for him, and the chairman of Real Madrid will not fire the German in advance. And once Calderon defeated the opposition at the general meeting, the first thing he wanted to win was Schuster in order to save this tragic season.

At this time, the Catalan media became Schuster's sympathizers. They said that, from a certain point of view, Schuster became a victim of Real Madrid's high-level struggle. Although the Germans blamed Calderon for a long time without any complaints, he will still be kicked out of the Bernabeu by the Real Madrid chairman after losing his use value.

At this time, Barcelona Chairman Laporta also came out to add insult to injury. He said that Barcelona had lost two championships before, but, It was not Real Madrid who won these two championships, but Barcelona who lost the championship. In terms of personnel mix or tactical system, Barcelona were above Real Madrid in the first two seasons, and the degeneration of the Red and Blues was only due to internal problems.

Objectively speaking, when Real Madrid is in trouble, it is the Barcelona people who care about them the most. Conversely, when the Barcelona people are having a hard time, the Madrid people also care about Barcelona the most.

Love and kill each other for a hundred years, and sincerely pray for each other's unhappiness, this is a precious persistence.

On December 1, 2008, the system drew a lottery at the end of the month, and Fang Jue got the [Yellow Bad Luck Card] for the second consecutive month.

Seeing that the number of [yellow bad luck cards] in the system locker changed from 2 to 3, Fang Jue was thinking. He always felt a little strange. The system allowed him to draw bad luck cards for two consecutive months. Simple, there should be no deep meaning.

Three days later, Ibiza played at home against Belgian giants Club Brugge.

In this game, as long as Ibiza draws, they will be able to lock in the group qualifying places. In addition, because Saint-Etienne, which has finished three consecutive rounds before, has a bye in this round, so as long as Ibiza wins this game, the ranking will be high. Able to jump to the first place in the group.

In the end, with central defender Koscielny's header succeeded, Ibiza beat Bruges 1-0 at home and got three points as they wished.

After winning this game, the points situation in Group G of the UEFA Cup group stage has changed. Ibiza won all three games and ranked first with 9 points. Saint-Etienne ranked second with 7 points after two wins and one tie. , Brugge ranked third with 2 points and 2 draws, and Rosenborg ranked 4th with 2 draws and 2 losses. This Norwegian Super League team has played four group matches and is sure to miss the group stage. The Danish League team Copenhagen ranked fifth with one draw and two losses and one point.

From this ranking, we can see a very interesting situation, that is, Copenhagen, which is currently ranked last in the group and only scored one point in three games, still has the possibility of competing for the third place in the group and the right to qualify for the group. , The opportunity is in their own hands. In the last round, Copenhagen will be a guest in Belgium and directly face Brugge, who is now third in the group. As long as Copenhagen wins away, they can rise to third in the group and qualify.

It can be seen from this that there are five teams in this group stage, and the schedule for three teams to qualify is really not a problem for many teams with slightly stronger strength.

...

Two days later, in the fourteenth round of La Liga, the match between Ibiza and Deportivo was the earliest match of this round. This schedule also made Fang feel very uncomfortable. They just played in Spain local time on Thursday night. Played the UEFA Cup game, and then ushered in the league on Saturday night, with only two days off in between.

The Ibiza club had previously proposed to La Liga to postpone this round of the league by one day, but it was rejected by La Liga. The reason?

Their opponents in this round, Deportivo, disagree.

Obviously, Deportivo's calculation is very simple. Ibiza is very tired now, and this is a good opportunity for them to steal chickens.

December 6th, La Coruña, Riazor Stadium.

Ninety minutes of the game was over, and the Riazor Stadium was booed.

The scoreboard of the stadium shows dazzlingly: Real Deportivo 0:4 Ibiza.

Mata opened the scoring for Ibiza, Lewandowski expanded the score for Ibiza, and Aubameyang scored twice to completely seal the victory.

On the second day after the game, the headline in the Sunday Telegraph read: Ibiza with 'wake up spirit' can't be messed with.

The Sunday Telegraph interviewed Ibiza's young star Juan Mata, who said he struggled to get out of bed this morning because he was so tired, and then before the game, the team coach Fang Jue said to them In a word, Go, the opposite is Deportivo who does not agree to let you have an extra day off.

...

Fang Jue felt that it was necessary for him to send a letter of thanks to the Getafe club.

In the ensuing match of this round, Getafe held a tenacious 3-3 draw with their opponents at Villarreal's Estadio de la Velodrome. After blocking Real Madrid in the last round of the league, this round blocked the 'Yellow Submarine' again. '.

However, then, Barcelona beat Valencia 4-0 at home at Camp Nou, continuing to catch up with Ibiza in the standings.

The good news always came last, and it seemed so pleasantly surprised. Real Madrid lost 3-4 to Sevilla at the Bernabéu Stadium. The game was ups and downs. Nut scored successively, and Higuain and Gago also scored two goals to tie again. However, Robben needlessly complained that the referee was sent off for accumulating two yellow cards, and Sevilla scored a header from Renato to beat Real Madrid.

This is Real Madrid's third defeat in the last four rounds of the league.

I’m sorry I was wrong and misunderstood you—Fang Jue felt that he had to say sorry to Sevilla. This team was generally eliminated by Barcelona in the last round of dough, not because they were too incompetent, but because they were accumulating strength Beat Real Madrid.

However, if possible, Fang Jue still hopes that the next blocking hero team can target Barcelona instead of bullying Real Madrid, which has internal and external troubles.

Because Fang Jue was worried that Schuster would not be able to hold on.

...

After this campaign, in the La Liga standings, Ibiza leads with 38 points. Barcelona is 6 points behind Ibiza and ranks second in the league with 32 points. Villarreal ranks third with 28 points. , Sevilla ranked fourth in the league with 27 points, Valencia ranked fifth in the league with 24 points, and Real Madrid ranked sixth in the league with 23 points.

Yes, after Galacticos Real Madrid lost this game, the points have fallen behind Ibiza by as many as 15 points!

Marca launched the most violent bombardment against Real Madrid chairman Calderon. The newspaper's chief columnist David Antonio Havis even bluntly said that if he were Calderon, he would be 15 points behind the newly promoted team. Just shit yourself and eat shit and kill yourself.

Marca believes that Real Madrid has fallen into such a pitiful situation, and Calderon is the most directly responsible person. The chairman has a big mouth, lies, brags, and does nothing. Everyone can punish him.

However, what is interesting is that the Aspen, which criticized Real Madrid coach Schuster and shouted that Schuster was fired, suddenly defended Schuster in such a bad situation.

Aspen listed Real Madrid's current injury situation. In the past two and a half months, Real Madrid has suffered 23 injuries of varying degrees. In fact, in the past two weeks, Real Madrid has three main players. Players are unable to play due to injuries, they are Van Nistelrooy, Cannavaro and Higuain who just sprained his ankle in the game.

The statistical results of Aspen show that Real Madrid has suffered a total of 23 injuries this season, which is much higher than other teams in La Liga. The teams ranked 2 to 7 are Sevilla (17) , Barcelona (13), Athletic Bilbao (12), Valencia (10) and Villarreal (6), Ibiza (5).

The statistical object is expanded to Europe, and only Chelsea in the Premier League has more injuries than Real Madrid, reaching 26, but at the same time, the number of first-line squads of the British team (26) is 3 more than Real Madrid.

Aspen pointed out that this is related to the bad turf at the Bernabeu, but Daily Sports found through careful research that such a conclusion is not objective. First of all, Real Madrid just spent 2 million euros to re-lay the turf in October this year. Secondly, apart from Real Madrid, the probability of the visiting team being injured at the Bernabeu is not high, especially when Ibiza is a guest at the Bernabeu. Hurry up.

Aspen's point of view is that the players are injured so frequently, which completely exceeded the club's expectations. Objectively, this also affected Schuster's record. Therefore, Schuster can be forgiven. factor.

Why did Aspen suddenly defend Schuster again?

Quite simply, the pro-Calderon Aspen suddenly discovered that under such a bad situation, Schuster might not be able to survive the Real Madrid member meeting a day later, so they immediately began to support Schuster. In defense, since Schuster is justifiable, the responsibility of Calderon as the chairman will be much lighter.
