With the end of the match between Chelsea and Liverpool, fans will turn their attention to Spain and Camp Nou, where a battle will begin. Is Barcelona winning at home to lay the foundation for advancing to the final, or is Real Madrid continuing to hold high the banner of victory and advance towards the third championship trophy?

Fans are looking forward to it!

Etoo once again made a bold statement: "We will win Real Madrid three-to-zero at Camp Nou and firmly advance to the Champions League final!"

Tang Jue was not willing to fall behind and said loudly: "Victory belongs to Real Madrid!"

Rijkald said cautiously: "Our goal tonight is to win. As for the score, I think it's enough to be 1-0."

Shuster said proudly: "No one can stop our determination to advance to the finals, and no one can stop our ambition to win the three-header!"

Major media sent reporters to Camp Nou to report the game in all aspects. According to statistics, a total of 700 teams of reporters came to Barcelona. Members of the "Anti-Tang League" also gathered together again. They held the last meeting of the season, with the purpose of determining how to absolutely fight against Tang.

They have formulated various detailed plans, such as Barcelona's home victory, how to report, Barcelona's home defeat, and how to report. Barcelona eliminates Real Madrid, advances to the finals, how to criticize Tang Jue, etc.

The meeting was very successful, and everyone agreed that a season was about to end, and blocking Real Madrid from winning the Champions League was the biggest task. They did not hesitate to use various resources to criticize Tang Jue. For example, Real Madrid eliminated Barcelona and advanced to the finals, so they had to use his lawsuit with tve to distract fans' attention.

In their opinion, TVE is very likely to win the case. After all, Tang Jue's breakup of the contract first caused TVE to suffer a great economic loss. Reporting the lawsuit can not only distract fans' attention, but also disrupt Tang Jue's heart.

...

The Champions League semi-finals are about to begin, the air inside Real Madrid has become tense, and the young players seem very nervous. Cannavaro played the role of his old players at this time. He found those players who seem nervous to communicate and used his experience to relieve his teammates' excessive tension.

Yaya Toure, who entered the Champions League semi-finals for the first time, is his first choice. In Cannavaro's view, this new Côte d'Ivoire star has become a major member of Real Madrid's midfielder. Offense and defense balance is the main member of the team's offense and defense ability, and his performance has a great impact on the team's victory or defeat.

For Cannavaro personally, the Champions League is a dream that has never been realized. Neither at Juventus or Real Madrid, he has tasted the taste of the Champions League championship. His age is increasing day by day. His condition is also declining. He is no longer the stabilizer of Juventus and Italy.

If he cannot win the Champions League title now, he may regret his life and will never be able to stand on the highest podium in the Champions League. Cannavaro's desire for the Champions League is not smaller than Henry's.

In addition to resolving the tension of young players in the team, he is also working hard to improve his form, hoping to perform well in the game and help the team.

As for Tang Jue, he has no previous high fighting spirit. After each training, he has to practice free kicks. In his opinion, as his fame increases, the opponent's defense against him will become closer and closer. He dribbles and breaks through, causing the opponent's foul, and then uses a direct free kick to break through the opponent's goal. He wants to design a new goal mode for himself.

As long as his free kick skills are so sophisticated, the opponent's defender will be afraid when he fouls, which will also bring him more opportunities to break through.

Real Madrid players were preparing for this battle in full swing, and Barcelona did not stop. Rijkaard specially held a team meeting in the locker room after training on the morning of the 22nd. He wanted to unify the team's thoughts and formulate the correct tactics.

The defeat in the Cup of del Rey tells him a truth: if he wants to defeat Real Madrid and put most of his troops into the offense, this is a wrong view. In the game of efficient and sharp counterattacks, he must not focus all his energy on the offense. Apart from the balance of offense and defense, he cannot find a second way to defeat his opponent.

But as soon as his point was expressed, he was opposed by Etoo. The Cameroonian star believed that offense was the only way out. He even used the second leg match between Milan and Bayern last season as an example.

"At that time, there was a problem with Milan's defense. Ancelotti listened to the advice of Ronnie and others, played offensive football at the Allianz Stadium, and finally scored 7-7, thus eliminating the opponent. We had no problem with the defense, and this was our home court. If we didn't make a big attack and led the score, it would be difficult to win in the second round!"

This is not the first time Etoo opposes Rijkald's tactics in the locker room, and the air in the locker room becomes tense. Rijkald shook his head and said, "We are not Milan, we don't have those sharp attack power. The lessons from the Copa del Rey are enough, and I don't want to lose again."

Etoo was unhappy. What does it mean to have less sharp attack power than Milan? This obviously looks down on people.

"Coach, our attack power is no worse than Milan at that time!"

"As long as we have reasonable tactics, we will immediately counterattack after we lose the ball in the frontcourt, delaying their offensive speed, and their quick counterattack will not be able to hit. We can win a big score!"

As the leader and captain of the locker room, Puyol felt it was time to speak: "The defensive tactics Etoo said are feasible. We must delay their counterattack speed. Front court players should pay attention to Guti's defense. He is the first point for Real Madrid to launch a fast counterattack. His long passes in the backcourt are a powerful weapon for Real Madrid to counterattack. By limiting his long passes, Don't have the speed of counterattack."

"As for positional warfare, we have the confidence to curb him!"

Etoo nodded happily. Puyor was the leader of the Barcelona locker room and was praised by the leader. Of course he was happy, as if he had won a battle.

Rijkald frowned. What does this mean? Is it to support Etoo? Supporting Etoo means opposing him.

"As for the offensive and defensive balance that the coach mentioned, I think it is also correct. In addition to Don, Real Madrid's attack points, there are Henry and Ribery, who are often underestimated. If we think that to contain Don, we can curb Real Madrid's attack, that would be wrong."

"I value Henry so much, and some people may disagree with me. Maybe they say, did he not score goals last time at Camp Nou? He also didn't score in the Copa del Rey a week ago."

"Real Madrid has one less player in the Cup of Rey, and Henry took the initiative to retreat to the midfield. Together with Sneijder, he took on the heavy responsibility of midfield defense. He sacrificed himself and fulfilled Don. I think everyone knows his attack power. Two seasons ago, Arsenal was a visit to the Bernabeu, and Henry started from the midfield. Henry passed five players in a row and scored the football into the goal."

"That scene is still vivid in my mind. We can't underestimate him. As for Ribery, he performed well at Camp Nou last season. One goal and one assist helped Real Madrid get out of the way."

"These two are ignored under the halo of Tang. If we make a big attack and focus our main defensive energy on Tang, then these two will have a chance to break through our goal."

"So, we need to balance off offense and defense, and we need to pay attention to defense in addition to offense."

After Puyor finished speaking, the Barcelona locker room became quiet. Rijkald thought for a while, then looked at Xavi and asked, "What do you think?"

Harvey thought for a while and said, "The offensive problem is not very big. We are confident of breaking the opponent's goal. As for defense, I still have concerns. We must formulate a detailed defensive plan. For example, Ribery breaks through the side, how should we defend on the side? How should we defend in the middle? How to curb Don's ball? For example, the frontcourt failed to stop Guti's long pass, how should we defend, etc."

"I suggest that the group discussion be discussed first, the offensive players are divided into one group, and discuss how to counterattack on the spot if they attack and concede the ball in the frontcourt. The defensive players are divided into one group, and discuss how to do a good job in defense in various situations and if they participate in the offense."

"After the group discusses, they will gather together for a meeting, combine the opinions of both parties, and finally the coach will arrange them overall."

Harvey's view was supported by many players. Rijkaard finally said: "Okay, then follow Harvey's advice. After the training this afternoon, we will divide into two groups to discuss. After the training tomorrow morning, we will gather together to develop the final tactics together!"

...

If he cannot achieve results in the Champions League, Barcelona will be in nothing. Real Madrid holds the King's Cup and La Liga championships. If he advances to the Champions League final, Rijkaard can only resign.

He doesn't want to leave Barcelona in this way. You should know that after the failure of the Copa del Rey, Barcelona Chairman Laporta has already talked to him. Barcelona Chairman gave him a death order and must eliminate Real Madrid and advance to the Champions League final. Although Laporta did not say the consequences of Barcelona's failure, he understood.

If the three-time champions battle fails in a complete victory, he will not have the face to stay in the position of Barcelona's head coach. The Champions League has become his life-saving straw, and he chose to gather everyone's wisdom to achieve the goals of the Champions League. Doing so will allow players to more clearly understand the game tactics, and on the other hand, it can also alleviate the contradictions in the locker room.

After he proposed the strategy of balanced offense and defense today, didn’t Etoo start to object? If this happened in the pre-match meeting, then Barcelona would be done.

In the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, Real Madrid was tied 1-1 by Manchester United at home. At that time, many people thought that Manchester United would eliminate Real Madrid and advance to the semi-finals. Schuster summoned the locker room leaders to discuss countermeasures, and from the results, the effect was very good. At this time, Rijkaard almost used the same method, but his range was larger, and he summoned all players to discuss countermeasures.

There are many big names in the world. These big names are usually proud and have their own opinions. Sometimes they will stick to their own opinions and stir up the storm in the team.

If a head coach cannot balance the locker room, he is doomed to fail. Even a coach like Ferguson, who has the highest authority in the locker room, sometimes needs to balance the locker room opinions.

The same is true for Ancelotti. He was able to win the Champions League again and won three Champions League championships within four years and became a legendary coach of the Champions League. He also balanced the locker room and listened to more opinions. Some people say that the reason why Ancelotti was successful was that in addition to being a master of tactics, balancing the locker room was another weapon for his success.
