1116 He is the best in the world
At the Bernabeu post-match press conference, what awaits Pellegrini is a storm of public opinion trial.
Madrid media and Spanish media want to "break Pellegrini into pieces"!
To describe it in private discussions by reporters: Pellegrini watched Real Madrid brutally slaughtered by the Red Army!
When Pellegrini appeared at the press conference, the reporters in the audience raised their hands to ask questions.
A reporter from Marca asked bluntly: "How did Real Madrid prepare for this game? Did you completely treat yourself as a spectator in the game? Is this what you should do as a head coach?"
Pellegrini defended with pale and powerless words: "In the early part of the game, we lost one goal and two goals, in order to reverse the opponent, we can only strengthen the offense. Liverpool played very smart today. They set up a defensive counterattack. With the strength of Liverpool's team, if they play defensive counterattacks, this will cause trouble for any team in the world. I feel lost when losing the game with a big score and the team was eliminated. The emotions of the players fell to the bottom, and everyone seemed to have suffered huge trauma. I have a great responsibility and I will not escape, but we still have to look forward and not be immersed in this major loss. It will not help Real Madrid's future."
The reporters did not buy it, and the team newspaper Ashes criticized it even more fiercely.
"Before the game, you swear that Real Madrid is ready and is confident of turning the tables at home. But in the game, we can't see Real Madrid making careful preparations. The game is not even under the control of Real Madrid for a minute. Where is your work performance? Does Real Madrid only think that the field of the game will be changed from Anfield to Bernabeu, and Real Madrid's combat effectiveness will be greatly improved invisibly, and Liverpool's combat effectiveness will decline a lot?"
Pellegrini admitted the reality in embarrassment.
"I have to say that Liverpool performs better, the tactics used by Liverpool and the overall team swing. Including the mentality of the players, they are better than Real Madrid, so they won. As for Real Madrid not being able to control the trend of the game, I think the bigger reason is because we are under too much pressure."
"You might as well just say when you will quit!"
A Spanish journalist said the depressed words in everyone's heart with an impatient tone.
Real Madrid needs someone to bear this responsibility in the Champions League 3:10. There is no doubt that head coach Pellegrini will take the brunt.
The press conference turned into a collective media bombardment of Pellegrini and "accountability". Pellegrini was not good at dealing with such scenes. He also did not expect that his situation would end up being "betrayal to everyone" after the match with the Red Army.
He just went to the locker room to appease the Real Madrid players, but no player was willing to talk to him. He sensitively noticed that even the players began to distrust him. Perhaps he felt that his ability could not control the team's locker room, and at the same time he could not lead Real Madrid to glory, especially in the face of tough battles and key battles, it was difficult for Real Madrid to show convincing performance, which was naturally directly linked to the coach's ability.
Koeman was in a red face when he attended the post-match press conference.
Fleet Street is waiting for the Dutch coach to arrive, after Koeman sat down. Times reporter Howard asked: "Liverpool beat Real Madrid in 10:3 in two, at the Bernabeu, Liverpool's performance is even better than at Anfield. What is the secret to Liverpool's victory?"
Koeman said calmly and proudly: "Unity! Liverpool shows a unity of 11 players in a whole! I don't agree with you. We performed well at Anfield. It is difficult for Real Madrid to not allow opponents to score goals. I can only say that Real Madrid has declined a lot today than the previous game because they look like they are a mess. They do show their determination and will to turn the tables. But their execution is not necessarily better than the previous game."
"What's the reason? After all, it's the Bernabeu, why did Real Madrid's performance decline?"
Koeman shrugged and said: "We have always known that Real Madrid is a team that has been tragic under pressure. Maybe it was because the team was too brilliant in the past, or maybe it was because the team invested heavily. They have the most luxurious lineup in the world, and people's expectations for Real Madrid have always been champions, champions, champions, and if Real Madrid cannot win the championship, it will fail. This is an important source of pressure Real Madrid is under pressure. Because of this, at the Bernabeu, they are more stressed. Such pressure will make them more anxious and panic, especially after we scored goals, Real Madrid's performance is getting worse and worse."
Daily Telegraph reporter Toms asked: "Today Liverpool arranged an asymmetric 442 formation. Before the game, it weakened the offense, but the offensive effect became better. What kind of thinking is this formation designed based on?"
Koeman was quite proud of this and smiled: "We established a 5:3 lead in the joint venture. When we come to the Bernabeu, we will definitely bear the more fierce attack of Real Madrid. So we must first stabilize the defense. So today I adopted the two defensive midfielders of Lucas + Mascherano. At the same time, I think only Qin Xiong and Torres are enough in the offense, because Real Madrid's defense will definitely have flaws under the huge offensive investment. We will not lack opportunities. The facts prove that my idea is right. I want to thank the players, who seized the opportunity again and again and gave Real Madrid a heavy blow."
"Comment on Qin Xiong's performance."
"I have nothing to say. The most wonderful praise in the world has been given to him. He is the strongest and best player in the world. Thank God, he is a member of Liverpool. He played another wonderful game. I can only say that now is the best time for the fans. They can appreciate Qin Xiong's performance on the court. This is the happiest thing, and for Liverpool, we are also happy."
Not only Koeman, but many Liverpool players interviewed after the game praised Qin Xiong and publicly praised Qin Xiong as the best player in the world.
While looking forward to the quarterfinals of the Champions League, Koeman became low-key again.
"We don't have weak teams to choose opponents. All we have to do is adjust our mindset, take it seriously one game after another, and strive for victory, and then let's see what will happen." (To be continued.)
