841 Put on the sworn enemy's jersey

841 Wear the jersey of the mortal enemy

"Many people say that Real Madrid was at its peak in history last season!"

On August 14, the first leg of the Spanish Super Cup was held at Calderon Stadium. Yang Cheng attached great importance to the first game of the new season. Both him and Real Madrid players knew very well that they must win this game.

Real Madrid's warm-up match results are very good, but Atletico Madrid is also not bad. And what Yang Cheng is most worried about is the players' mentality, so he has to repeat the matter to remind players in almost every game to avoid being arrogant and impatient!

"But what I want to say is that the football world is moving forward. Looking back on history, the glory we created in the past is indeed worthy of everyone's recognition and recognition, and it is also worthy of your pride in this, but you must look carefully and clearly that our present is also on the road to creating history."

All the players in the locker room listened attentively and watched the head coach perform pre-match mobilization.

"In the history of Real Madrid and La Liga, there have been two five consecutive championships, and Real Madrid has also won five consecutive championships in the Champions League, but no team has ever been able to maintain a great record of winning consecutive championships on both La Liga and Champions League."

"Any great teams often create great results. If we want to prove our greatness, want our name to be engraved in football history for a longer time, and let later generations admire us and worship us more, then we cannot just be satisfied with the achievements of last season, but should continue to work hard and go further!"

Speaking of this, Yang Cheng swept over the players, "If we win the La Liga championship again this season, then we will have five consecutive championships. If we win the Champions League again, then we will have three consecutive championships. Five consecutive championships in the league plus three consecutive championships in the Champions League, this is an unprecedented feat in football history, and a great victory that shocks everyone after hearing this."

"We have created great feats, but we are not immortal yet. I can tell you clearly that I hope that our Real Madrid and I can become the first immortal team in football history. In the future, everyone will mention this Real Madrid and the players of this Real Madrid, even if they are enemies, they will have to give us a thumbs up and praise us, great!"

"I will not allow any player who is blocking the team's path forward, no matter who he is!"

The last sentence is somewhat of a bit of intimidation, but for this group of players who have been fighting side by side with Yang Cheng over the past four years and have reached the top level in the world under Yang Cheng's wings, this sentence is more of an open and honest exchange bottom line.

Yang Cheng’s bottom line is the team’s combat effectiveness. No one can damage the team’s combat effectiveness. Otherwise, no matter who it is, he will not show mercy. If the player has any requirements, he can make it.

The internal atmosphere of Real Madrid has always been very open, and Yang Cheng has never appeared as a tyrant-like manager.

…………

…………

The first leg match against Atletico Madrid attracted the attention of fans all over the world, because this is the first time Real Madrid made a formal appearance in a major game after winning the Grand Slam last season. (--.com.)

Many strong opponents have recruited their troops this season, whether it is Manchester United, Chelsea or Barcelona, ​​they all have made heavy signings, but only Real Madrid. One of the biggest things Real Madrid has done this summer is to renew the contract with the team's main midfielder Delarede in the competition for many giant teams for a period of six years. This Spanish midfielder will retire from Real Madrid.

However, media in Catalonia previously disclosed that Barcelona has recently fallen into a debt crisis, and many stars in the team are in panic, especially after several stars such as Ibrahimovic, Yaya Toure and other stars left one after another, the club's financial situation has not been reduced at all. If this continues, the possibility of selling the stars cannot be ruled out.

At the same time, Florentino smiled and expressed his interest in several Barcelona players in an annual pre-season interview with AS and Marca. Among them, he focused on two players, Iniesta and Messi. He believed that these two players were phenomenal players. If he could play for Real Madrid, it would definitely be the most wonderful thing in the world.

The newspaper in Catalonia analyzed that in the past two seasons, Real Madrid has not invested significantly in the transfer market. Real Madrid currently has a large fiscal surplus, which is said to exceed 200 million euros.

There are indeed many stars in Real Madrid and the salary burden is indeed very high. But the problem is that Real Madrid's income is also high, because the business operations planned by Florentino are actually based on stars. The more stars, the more resources available for operation and hype, and the higher the income.

The wool comes from the sheep, and Real Madrid holds portrait rights to the stars in the team, which allows them to pay high salaries to the stars, while also obtaining huge income from the stars.

With so much fiscal surplus, and this year, the renovation of the Bernabeu Stadium will be fully completed and is expected to be put into use next year. Real Madrid's finances will be more relaxed by then, so Florentino has also begun to learn from the President of the Bernabeu and invest in some projects with development value, such as land, commercial centers, etc.

The comments from the media in Catalonia are actually to make it clear that in today's football world, only Real Madrid has enough financial strength to gain Messi and Iniesta at the same time. And now Barcelona is in a debt crisis, and it is urgently needed someone to provide funds.

"If one day we see Messi or Iniesta wearing Real Madrid's jerseys and playing for this arch-rival team, we must not be surprised by this, because it must be the deal that the club and the players each need!"

This report caused an uproar in the Barcelona region. Barcelona and the players kept denying that they would sell the players to Real Madrid, but Rossell never found an effective solution to the club's debt crisis.

Yang Cheng was also inevitably asked by reporters at the press conference before the first leg of the Super Cup. He smiled and said, "Messi and Iniesta are both phenomenal players, and they are also players that all head coaches will not say no. I am very satisfied with the team's current staffing. We have a group of outstanding stars and youth team players."

"But no one thinks that there are many stars under their command, right?"

The latter's ambiguous statement once again made the whole thing fall into a whirlpool of hype. Many people have even helped Real Madrid with advice, believing that if Messi and Iniesta join Real Madrid, this Real Madrid will not be able to arrange so many superstars and will eventually fall apart due to the conflicts between superstars.

Yang Cheng did not respond to these hypes. In this game against Atletico Madrid, he arranged his strongest starting lineup. The goalkeeper was Casillas, the defense was Aveloa, Thiago Silva, Ramos and Macon, the double midfielders were Xavi Alonso and Delarede, the attacking forward was Ronaldo, Kaka and David Silva, and the single forward was Aguero.

The Argentine striker performed very well in the summer warm-up match. Villa suffered a little injury during training in the United States, so in this game, Yang Cheng did not bring Villa, but let Aguero start and Klose sit on the bench.

At the beginning of the game, Real Madrid turned away and took the lead in launching a fierce attack on Atletico Madrid's defense line, and obtained two consecutive corner kicks within 3 minutes. Unfortunately, although Real Madrid's corner kicks posed a threat, they did not achieve any effect.

But it can also be seen that after key crafting, Real Madrid's corner kick offense has improved greatly.

Aveloa and Maicon were arranged by Yang Cheng to defend in the backcourt, protecting the defense line at any time to prevent the opponent from counterattacking, because to be honest, the role of these two players in corner kick offense is not very obvious, and it can even be said to be very slim.

When the corner kick was taken, Real Madrid invested 6 players in the penalty area. Whether it was Thiago Silva, Ramos, Ronaldo or Kaka, they all looked for opportunities in the opponent's penalty area, while Drarede was standing outside the penalty area ambushed. David Silva was in a relatively back position, and he could participate in the attack forward and pull out of the penalty area to re-control the ball.

A different change from usual is Ronaldo, Thiago Silva, and Ramos, the three players with the best heading ability, have a clear division of labor and cooperation between each other, such as cross-swapping positions during free throws, pulling defensive attention for teammates, etc. These all reflect Real Madrid's cooperation routine when attacking corner kicks.

Not only corner kick attacks, but also the free throwers' control over the landing point is strictly required. When Xavi Alonso comes on the court, the corner kicks are given to Xavi Alonso. Yang Cheng has repeatedly practiced his tacit understanding with his teammates during training, requiring the opponent's landing point to the area where the opponent's defense is weak or lax.

If an effective score cannot be formed in the penalty area and the ball is cleared, then Drarede's long shot is the biggest threat. The second corner kick against Atletico Madrid was Drarede's long shot, hitting Atletico Madrid's crossbar and out of the baseline.

The shot was so powerful that the muffled sound made all the fans in the audience shock, which showed how powerful it was.

Although two consecutive corner kicks failed, Real Madrid quickly used their own stable control to grasp the situation on the scene in a favorable side, and launched an orderly attack on Atletico Madrid.

In the 21st minute, Maicon got the ball on the right and drove straight along the wing. When facing the defensive player, he dribbled the ball and broke to the baseline and passed a low ball. Aguero inserted it and grabbed the point about 8 meters in front of the goal, breaking the Atletico goal, opening the first record for Real Madrid, and scoring the first official goal of the season.

After taking the lead, Yang Cheng began to ask the players to stabilize the rhythm and consciously lead Atletico Madrid to play. Then Real Madrid patiently looked for opportunities to fight Atletico Madrid's counterattack.

In the 37th minute, Real Madrid intercepted the ball in the backcourt. Ramos stole it and handed it to Xavi Alonso. The latter passed the ball with a long diagonal pass and accurately sent the ball behind Atletico Madrid's defense line. Ronaldo used his speed to cross all the opponents, entered the left side of the Atletico penalty area to get the ball, shook the defender away, and hit the left side, Aguero inserted the ball and sent the ball into Atletico's goal again, 2:0!

Aguero, who scored twice, was very excited. The Argentine young player showed a very good competitive state in the new season, just like last season, but it would not be as ups and downs as last season and would lose the starting main position again, which would be unknown.

Back to the locker room with a 2:0 score, Yang Cheng was very satisfied with the team's performance in the first half, but at the same time, he also asked the players to be careful of Atletico Madrid's counterattack.

Sure enough, at the beginning of the second half, Frelos asked Atletico Madrid to directly press and create opportunities from the beginning. In the 57th minute, Fran scored a goal for Atletico Madrid and recovered the score to 1:2.

Yang Cheng was unmoved and did not make substitution adjustments. Instead, Atletico Madrid began to consciously strengthen the offense.

Frelos is not a conservative head coach, and he is obviously not satisfied with losing at home. Moreover, this is not just a first leg of the Super Cup, but also affects Atletico Madrid's morale and fighting spirit this season.

The schedule is very cruel for Atletico Madrid, because it will encounter Real Madrid three times in the early stage of the league, which is definitely something that all teams do not want to encounter. The strength of this mortal enemy in the city is too strong, so powerful that countless teams cannot develop a mentality of resistance, and they even lose without a fight.

Barcelona coach Bilanova has previously stated that many La Liga teams choose to admit defeat when encountering Real Madrid and adopt a policy of non-resistance. Then when encountering other teams, they try their best to grab points. He believes that this is the reason why Real Madrid can be unstoppable, and at the same time calls on more teams to resist Yang Cheng's Real Madrid.

Freros knew best, not that he would not resist, but that he could do nothing.

For many small teams, instead of fighting with Real Madrid and losing terrible in the end, it is better to just surrender and hold on to the team that is more confident in getting points. Isn’t that better?

In the professional league, to put it bluntly, it depends on the ranking and the results. No matter how good you play against Real Madrid, you will be relegated in the end. Is it meaningful?

In fact, it is not just for Real Madrid, but also for Barcelona, ​​but also many teams lose without fighting. Therefore, many people say that La Liga is the stage where two Spanish Super League teams ravaged 18 La Liga teams, which is not unreasonable. It’s just that Real Madrid has been too strong in recent years, and Barcelona has no way to deal with Real Madrid, so Bilanova will use this as an example.

In fact, even though Frelos adjusted the team's tactics in the second half, Real Madrid still defeated the tenacious Atletico Madrid 3-1 in the 73rd minute with Ronaldo's goal.

Throughout the game, Real Madrid showed its outstanding strength and overall combat effectiveness.

"Your team is stronger than last season!" Freros took the initiative to find Yang Cheng after the game.

Strong and weak things have a strong subjective consciousness, which is difficult to say accurately, but it can be seen from the game situation. Even when Atletico Madrid attacks and scores goals, Real Madrid controls the game very steadily and suppresses Atletico Madrid's counterattack in an orderly manner, which is enough to prove the maturity of this team.

Nowadays, Real Madrid has a temperament that is difficult to describe in words, but it does exist. It is like an elegant king who is used to any scene and always calm and composed. Everything from his opponent will be easily resolved by him.

"Thank you!" Yang Cheng smiled, "Your combat effectiveness this season is also strong!"

Atletico Madrid introduced Merida from Arsenal and Suarez from Mallorca this season, but the best signing was to introduce Philippe from La Coruña to the left side. This was the left back who performed very well in La Liga last season. These signings greatly strengthened Atletico Madrid's competitiveness.

Frelos smiled. He knew that his team's strength had been strengthened, but there was still a big gap compared to Real Madrid. It can be seen that this season's La Liga is still a duo of Real Madrid and Barcelona. However, can Barcelona, ​​which is deeply in a debt crisis, resist Real Madrid?

Flores is a little reserved for this.

…………

…………

He won Atletico Madrid away 3:1, and Real Madrid did not show any excessive surprises, because it was natural for them to win Atletico Madrid, and they had sufficient confidence to do this.

In the middle of the week, the Bernabeu held the Bernabeu Cup, and this time the opponent invited was Brazilian powerhouse Colin Xi'an.

This team is no longer the Brazilian champion team where Tevez and Mascherano were. Although Colin and Xi'an are not weak now, there is still a big gap compared to that year.

Yang Cheng arranged for a number of substitutes and youth team teenagers to play in this game, including Parejo, Canales, Ozil, Klose, Kompani and other players who got the opportunity to start.

Despite the changes in the player lineup and the team had some ups and downs in the opening stage and failed to control the game steadily under Corinthian's competition, Real Madrid still scored a goal quickly, which was Canales assisted Cloze.

After leading, the substitutes and young players began to calm down, and their control over the game became more calm, and they began to gradually exert their strength. Colin Xi'an consciously contracted the defense. The defensive ability of this Brazilian powerhouse performed well in the domestic league, and now it has effectively curbed Real Madrid's offense.

In the second half, Munia, who came on as a substitute, scored the second goal of the game and the last goal, helping Real Madrid finally defeat his opponent 2-0 at the Bernabeu and won the Bernabeu Cup in the new season.

Yang Cheng expressed satisfaction with this game, but what he was most satisfied with was the desire for victory by these players. At the same time, he also said that some players will play an increasingly important role in the new season.

He hopes to use competition to keep everyone in Real Madrid's first team under pressure and let them go all out in every game, whether he is a substitute or a superstar, he must do this.

Only in this way can Real Madrid become invincible!
