Chapter 159 Boy, if You Go to Barcelona, ​​I Will Always Be Able to Beat You [Please Subscribe! ]

Because the explosive news before the game was indirectly confirmed by Guardiola's social media statement, Barcelona is the traffic king of this round of La Liga.

Well-known media in various European countries are sending a large number of reporters to Barcelona in an attempt to get some first-hand exclusive news.

On the day of the game, the Barcelona club and Camp Nou were surrounded by reporters carrying "long guns and short cannons".

Barcelona fans were almost angry about the interviews.

At the beginning, some fans asked the media to help convey their reluctance and retention to Guardiola.

After all, in the eyes of the fans, their voice power can only be expanded rapidly with the help of the media.

But later, I saw that these media reports on the Internet were almost all about the tension within the Barcelona fan group, or the guilt of the Barcelona club for refusing all interviews.

Barcelona fans know that it is wishful thinking to expect these media who only want to eat the big news of Barcelona's disintegration to speak fairly.

So some hot-tempered fans saw reporters seeking interviewees on the street and simply pointed at the other party's nose and cursed.

A conflict between fans and reporters quickly intensified in the streets and alleys of Barcelona.

At the critical moment, Guardiola stood up to stabilize the situation.

Guardiola, who did not show up at the pre-match press conference yesterday, still responsibly released a live video of himself leading the team to the battle.

Guardiola's mental outlook in the video looked quite relaxed, not anxious at all, and he also patiently appeased Barcelona fans and called on them to support Barcelona together.

Just think of it as the last time to support his coaching game in Barcelona!

Li Ang, who was watching the excitement, also gave Guardiola a thumbs up from the bottom of his heart.

This is called responsibility.

Those Barcelona executives who are still hiding behind the spotlight, not daring to come forward to appease the fans, and not daring to disclose the real communication between the two parties, should really learn from it!

After giving up the idea of ​​continuing to watch the fun, Li Ang did not discuss this topic with his teammates.

In any case, this Dream Three Barcelona has been a strong opponent that has spurred Real Madrid to keep tightening its nerves and seek progress in the past two seasons.

Li Ang is of course happy to see Barcelona fail.

But not in such a ridiculous way.

Even if he knows that Guardiola will sooner or later break up with the current Barcelona.

But even if Guardiola leaves after the end of this season?

In that case, they can at least compete with Dream Three Barcelona for another full season.

No matter who wins or loses, at least in this case, the players on both sides of Real Madrid should not have too many regrets.

It can only be said that Dream Three Guardiola Barcelona and Mourinho Real Madrid can no longer complete the second half of the league.

It is a pity for the entire La Liga, and even the entire world football.

"How outrageous are the top management of Barcelona? Can't they even lie? They can actually make Guardiola go crazy. They are just pig-brains."

Sitting on the bus and hearing Ramos' complaints behind him, Li Ang silently smiled meaningfully.

Outrageous?

This is just the beginning. There will be many more times when the top management of Barcelona is outrageous in the future~

※※※

After 7 o'clock that night, the players of Real Madrid and Malaga were doing the final warm-up before the game in the Rose Garden Stadium.

During the water replenishment period, Li Ang and Isco high-fived and "greeted" each other.

However, Isco didn't seem to be in a particularly good mood today, but Li Ang didn't even think about it and said, "Barcelona is going to be turbulent."

Good guy, this kind of action of rubbing salt into the wound made Isco roll his eyes directly.

"Messi and the others are still here, Barcelona won't be in chaos for too long."

"But Guardiola is leaving."

"Barcelona will find a suitable new coach during the Christmas holiday!"

"But Guardiola is leaving."

"Barcelona's top management promised to give the new coach the maximum support for the winter transfer window!"

"But Guardiola is leaving."

"."

Li Ang's parroting behavior broke Isco's defense.

Seeing Isco stretching out his hands and jumping up to strangle his neck, Li Ang quickly smiled and waved his hands to apologize.

Fortunately, the water replenishment time was only a few minutes. Isco knew that he couldn't talk Li Ang, and finally left Li Ang with a look that said "wait for you in the game", and ran away with his short legs.

Li Ang smiled and didn't say anything more. He took the time to warm up with his teammates.

Malaga is still very popular in La Liga now.

Not only is it currently in the top four of La Liga, it has also qualified as the group leader in the Champions League, just like Real Madrid and Barcelona.

No matter how "weak" the group it is in is, at least Malaga has managed to beat Milan and break through with an unbeaten record.

Another La Liga team that also made it to the knockout stage, Valencia, has now dived to eleventh in La Liga.

As a mid-level team, Malaga can maintain stability on both fronts. This comparison highlights the healthy and reasonable operation of the Malaga team.

Pellegrini, who had previously led Real Madrid for a year, once again proved his coaching achievements.

Pellegrini's coaching style of spending little money to achieve great things and advocating offensive football is still quite popular in European football.

As the winter window approaches, the transfer rumors surrounding Malaga's outstanding players and Pellegrini are increasing day by day.

Originally, when Manchester City was eliminated from the bottom of the Champions League group stage and Mancini's odds of being fired soared, the British media reported that Manchester City's top management intended to change coaches, and the target was Pellegrini.

At that time, the Spanish media were also spreading similar rumors.

But now with the big news from Barcelona, ​​the Spanish media suddenly changed the topic and began to link Barcelona and Pellegrini together.

Even though Pellegrini had already come out to refute the rumors and made it clear that he would not leave Malaga in the winter window.

But these media just like to link Pellegrini with many European powerhouses that are changing coaches.

It can only be said that once the team's performance is good and the reputation is rising, the media will automatically rush to pay attention and create rumors like digging into the bottom of things.

Before the game, Mourinho could only smile and comfort Pellegrini when he heard Pellegrini's helpless complaints.

With Pellegrini's temperament, it seems that he is really not suitable to work for a big club.

He is too honest and too focused on football itself. He does not have much psychological resistance to media interference.

If you want to work in a big club, you don't have enough pressure resistance and can't do the occasional angry media thing, then it's really not possible.

However, Mourinho is absolutely convinced of Pellegrini's level of leading a mid-level team.

Whether it was the previous Villarreal or the current Malaga, as long as the club gives Pellegrini power, he can indeed create a league team that can play stably in European wars in just two seasons.

Today, Malaga is a top four team in La Liga with perfect tactical coordination and a virtuous cycle of development.

Of course, Mourinho's evaluation is limited, that is, at present, in the first 16 rounds of La Liga.

After all, the depth of the bench is still needed in the second half of the league, and Malaga has gone far enough in the Champions League this year.

This is a good thing, but it is also a bad thing, because it consumes too much physical condition of Malaga's main players.

If the team adjusts well later and can survive two rounds of the quarter-finals or even two rounds of the quarter-finals.

Then the rising Malaga may really be able to stay in the top four in the league.

But if it doesn't survive, it will be easy to have an avalanche of results.

Mourinho has seen too many such examples over the years.

However, Malaga is still not worried about this kind of results at the moment, and their morale is boosted because they have entered the knockout stage of the Champions League.

Therefore, Mourinho also put Malaga at the same level of threat as Atletico Madrid to prepare for the game.

It just so happened that several main players in the team could not start today, so Mourinho simply adopted a more stable tactic of defending the middle line at the beginning, just like the last time against Atletico Madrid.

Therefore, at 8 o'clock that night at the Rose Garden Stadium, the game started on time.

The two teams that seemed to play the same 4-2-3-1 starting formation adopted completely different starting tactics.

On the Real Madrid defense line, Essien started as a right back again today.

The double defensive midfielder combination was partnered by Li Ang and Matuidi.

Among them, Li Ang played the position that Alonso played in the past, dragged back to organize the front interception, and Matuidi covered and swept.

Modric took the responsibility of advancing the ball and organizing the offense in the frontcourt.

Of course, when defending, he also needed to retreat to his own defensive third zone to assist Li Ang.

Callejon started in place of Di Maria and was able to retreat to a very deep position on the defensive end.

At the beginning of the game, Ronaldo was almost the only one on Real Madrid's side who went to the front, while Benzema retreated to the midfield to assist and press.

As for Callejon, he was used as a sweeping midfielder at the beginning.

He was on the right side of the midfield, and Matuidi was on the left. Today, the two did what Li Ang used to do.

In addition to Modric and Benzema who actively entangled Malaga's ball holders in the middle, Malaga's opening attack test was difficult.

It was Saviola and Joaquin on the front line who frequently retreated, using their technical advantages to cooperate with Isco to open up the situation little by little.

Malaga's advancement was not smooth, but at this moment, they occupied the initiative on the field and found some good opportunities in the struggle with Real Madrid's midfield.

However, this short-lived joy of seeing hope did not last long in the hearts of Malaga players and their fans on the scene.

In the seventh minute of the first half, Isco, who received the ball for the first time and broke into the 30-meter area of ​​Real Madrid, faced Li Ang's explosive chase and side tackle, but still lost the ball!

The key is that Leon's defense this time is not simply to disrupt Malaga's offense.

After he successfully tackled the ball sideways, he protected the ball with his arch and pulled it forward, and then he stood up and started to move forward!

This shovel-to-ball technique is used because he has cut his hair short now, otherwise many fans would really mistakenly think that they are watching an old-school Italian defender defending!

After advancing the ball for seven or eight meters, Li Ang also decisively sent a long pass behind the Malaga defense line while observing!

Still with the characteristics of Long Ge's long pass, Li Ang still left enough room for sprinting.

Callejon rushed past Monreal without the ball, and finally caught up with the ball and sent a long arc pass before Malaga midfielder Portillo pressed!

It's a pity that Ronaldo, who was advancing this time, was blocked by Malaga right back Gamez and failed to get to the landing area of ​​the football in time.

Benzema finally headed the ball a little off under the defense of Demichelis.

It was a pity that the ball was not scored, but the essence of Real Madrid's opening tactics was already played out. Mourinho stood on the sidelines and applauded his disciples.

The fans at the Malaga scene exclaimed in unison and patted their chests in relief.

Then they almost all looked at Li Ang who had launched the attack before.

Movistar's La Liga commentator said bluntly that Li Ang once again suppressed Isco in a direct confrontation!

Li Ang's variation speed was very smooth and smooth, completely catching Malaga off guard.

In other words, his current long pass ability is indeed far behind Alonso.

Otherwise, if he had been more confident in looking for Ronaldo in the ball just now, Ronaldo might have been able to tear open Malaga's defense line in the first place.

However, the flaws do not hide the merits. Li Ang's ability to organize variations is already quite outstanding. One attack and defense conversion can make Malaga fans feel his great threat firsthand!

In the following games, Malaga still had to face Leon, the defensive "nail".

Because no matter how Isco tried, he could pass Modric and Matuidi, but he just couldn't open a gap in the one-on-one with Leon.

There was no better way except passing the ball, but after passing the ball, the Real Madrid players who returned to defense could force back Malaga's offensive attempts.

Leon stayed back today to focus on frontal interception and organization, highlighting stability and strength.

During this period, Real Madrid's counterattack has not stopped much, and the initiative that Malaga grabbed at the beginning of the game seemed to have become a poisonous apple.

If you don't eat it, it looks tempting, but if you eat it, it will be a slow death.

Mourinho is just tempting Malaga to eat this poisonous apple. He would rather not have the initiative in the entire first half and lower his posture to play defense and counterattack.

And the facts have proved that it is really unacceptable to let Real Madrid's forward line frequently attack their own defense line on the counterattack end.

Demichelis has performed quite well this season, but his adventurous spirit still makes him make rash defensive mistakes from time to time.

In the 31st minute of the first half, facing Real Madrid's long pass counterattack again, Demichelis saw Benzema's tendency to retreat, and subconsciously chose to go out to fight for a little.

This is similar to the front defense in basketball.

As long as the position is blocked first, the defender will destroy the attacking side's ball possession, and even take this opportunity to counterattack successfully.

But Demichelis was wrong in his defensive prediction.

He thought Benzema wanted to fight for a little header into the penalty area and directly create opportunities for Ronaldo.

That is indeed very difficult, and he has a high probability of successfully destroying Real Madrid's attack this time.

But Benzema's final choice is to head the ball back!

It cannot be said that this kind of ball is not difficult, but compared with the header back swing, the difficulty is much smaller!

Demichelis' defensive mistake allowed Modric, who was advancing with the ball, to calmly make the most correct choice!

A straight pass to the right side of Malaga's penalty area made Demichelis's offensive defense quite funny and deadly!

Ronaldo's running position on the left side of the penalty area firmly tied up the defensive attention of Malaga's other central defender Sanchez and midfielder Ignacio Camacho.

Callejon's diagonal running position was very beautiful, and his connection with the ball in the empty area was even more beautiful!

A low shot at the near corner that deceived Malaga goalkeeper Caballero!

When the ball crossed the line, Li Ang, who was looking at the backcourt, cheered with his teammates!

This ball was still a long counterattack initiated by Li Ang. He did not gain any personal data, but this did not prevent him from having a full sense of accomplishment in his heart!

While being happy, Li Ang did not forget to continue to tease Isco, who stood beside him with his hands on his hips and shook his head.

"Look, kid, this is Real Madrid now! If you go to Barcelona, ​​I will always beat you!"
