One Hundred and Six Champions Must Belong to Real Madrid!
On the evening of April 23rd, at the Bernabéu Stadium in Madrid.
When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, there were bursts of boos from the fans in the stadium again, and finally intensified. Almost the entire stadium, 75,000 Real Madrid fans were crazily booing the team.
The first thing to bear the brunt is the depth of the home team coach.
He stood on the sidelines throughout the game, without unnecessary movements, without the slightest expression, watching the court silently.
One to one!
This is the thirty-fourth round of La Liga, Real Madrid vs. Villarreal's final result.
The Yellow Submarines are the team that reached the semi-finals of the Champions League. They just beat Barcelona 0-0 at Camp Nou, and Real Madrid 1-1 at home. It is not a bad result by any means.
What's more, in the game against AC Milan, Real Madrid's players consumed a lot. Gao Shen has a large rotation tonight. None of the four superstars in the frontcourt played. The defense was also forced to use Pavengara because of Elguera's injury. The combination of Moss, let Woodgate rest.
With such a remnant formation, a one-to-one score against Villarreal at home is considered acceptable.
But not only Real Madrid fans, even Gao Shen himself was very dissatisfied.
Because, this afternoon, Barcelona drew with Sevilla 3-3 away.
Rijkaard's side struggled to score a third goal until the 91st minute.
Barcelona is tied again!
As long as Real Madrid wins Villarreal tonight, they will be able to reverse Barcelona to the top and become the leader of the La Liga standings.
This will greatly damage Barcelona's morale and fighting spirit in the next few games.
Judging from the current situation of La Liga and the Champions League, Barcelona is not only Real Madrid's number one competitor for the La Liga championship, but also the biggest obstacle for Real Madrid to hit the tenth Champions League.
If they counterattack tonight, it is entirely possible that Real Madrid will beat Barcelona in one go, successfully counterattack on both fronts in La Liga and the Champions League, and then win the double crown.
But at this critical moment, Real Madrid drew!
What really makes Gao Shen unacceptable is that if the team is not strong enough and is tied by Villarreal, then there is nothing to say.
The crux of the problem is that Real Madrid led for more than an hour and was not evened until the last minute of the game.
In the 88th minute, Forlan the Two-footed Monster sent a cross from the left, Riquelme missed the center, and the full-back Venta who inserted in the back threw away Raul Bravo and got the ball past Par Wen, when he kicked an angry shot, the ball hit the hands of Ramos who was desperately filling the position.
The Real Madrid central defender was sent off directly by showing a red card and gave Villarreal a penalty.
Diego Forlan calmly took the penalty and equalized the score.
Let me ask, is such a draw acceptable?
After Real Madrid sat at the top of the real-time standings for more than 60 minutes, they fell down again.
This is where the boos from the Bernabéu fans come from.
Gao Shen is also very depressed.
What an opportunity this is, so missed!
He even had the urge to scream up to the sky, to vent the depression and aggrievedness in his heart fiercely.
But after a few deep breaths, he held back!
...
"Good job!"
Gao Shen stretched out his hand to meet Guti who was leaving the stage.
Then there are Robinho, Negredo, Cassano, Baptista and others. Among them, Baptista is the hero of Real Madrid's goal tonight. His back is connected to Negredo's header. Ferry, knocked Villarreal's goal with a head hammer.
Guti is the core playmaker of the team tonight, and his performance is also remarkable.
This conceded goal looks like a handball by Ramos, but in fact, everyone knows that Ramos made a mistake because he was anxious, and he was anxious because Raul Bravo and Pavon were easily missed. The opponent swayed past.
If Ramos does not block in time, the opponent will kick directly in the penalty area, and it is still possible to score.
Therefore, whether it is a penalty kick or a red card, Ramos is actually not a big problem.
Both Pavon and Raul Bravo were very frustrated, their heads drooping, and they followed behind their teammates.
When they came in front of Gao Shen, the two dared not look up.
Especially Raul Bravo.
When Carlo was coaching before, he was still the team's main player, but during Gao Shen's coaching, he kept losing his position, and he was not even as good as Felipe Luis, who was promoted by the second team, which made him somewhat dissatisfied.
But now, Gao Shen gave him a chance, he couldn't grasp it, and made such a mistake, who can be blamed?
Both of them were even ready to bear the deep anger.
"It's okay, it's okay, raise your head, cheer up, and don't look listless." Gao Shen didn't scold, but smiled and encouraged.
Both Pavin and Raul Bravo were very surprised. Looking at Gao Shen again, they found that he had a smile on his face, and he looked calm, not angry. They were relieved a little.
"Everyone, don't pay too much attention to the result. The one-to-one score is pretty good, within our expectations." Gao Shen shouted with a smile.
Lucas and Buenaventura are standing behind Gao Shen. They have been paying attention to the changes in Gao Shen's expression since the penalty kick just now. No one knows Gao Shen's thoughts better than them.
On the surface, he looks calm and gentle, but his heart is bleeding.
But what can I do?
As the head coach of the team and the manager of the locker room, is it possible that he should be furious at this time and scold the responsible person or everyone? What can this make up for?
The ball has been conceded, the game has been leveled, it's pointless to say that now.
...
"Just now, I was really worried that you couldn't help it." After sending off the players, Lucas said with a wry smile.
Buenaventura also nodded, he was so worried.
"If you can't help it, you have to bear it. If you get angry but it has no effect, it is incompetent rage. Why bother?"
However, after this game, he really understood that many Real Madrid players no longer have the strength to play in Real Madrid, including Pavon, Mejia, and even Raul Bravo.
This group of players undoubtedly had strength and potential when they first debuted, but in the past few years in Real Madrid, they have not been given opportunities to exercise, and their strength has not improved with age. As a result, the overall strength now cannot meet the team's requirements.
Speaking of it, this can be regarded as hurting Zhongyong.
There is also Portillo on the front line, who is almost twenty-four years old, and in Gao Shen's hands, he can't get a minute of playing time.
Sometimes, professional football is just that cruel.
Gao Shen would be cruel to himself if he gave them a chance out of sympathy.
Like this draw tonight.
...
At the post-match press conference against Villarreal, Gao Shen rarely did not push the blame to the tool man Maqueda, but attended by himself.
He can also be regarded as completely feeling the ability of the Spanish trolls.
Media such as Aspen, Marca, and National are actually not bad, but some small newspapers with not particularly famous names, and rival media such as Daily Sports Daily and World Sports Daily, the problem is one sharper than one.
For example, the Daily Sports Daily directly asked Gao Shen, after the draw this round, Real Madrid has lost the best chance to catch up with Barcelona, can they surrender in advance? In their view, it is basically impossible for Barcelona to lose points in the last four rounds.
Home game against Cadiz, away game against Celta Vigo, home game against Espanyol, away game against Athletic Bilbao.
Judging from these four games, it may be difficult to pose a threat to Barcelona.
In contrast, Real Madrid's schedule is much more difficult.
After playing AC Milan, there are two consecutive away games against Osasuna and Racing Santander.
These two teams are also very difficult to deal with. Osasuna is currently ranked fourth in La Liga and aims to keep their qualifications for the Champions League.
Everyone knows that participating in the Champions League represents an income of over ten million euros. For a team like Osasuna, it is impossible to give up, so they will do everything possible to keep their fourth place in the league.
Racing Santander is a relegation team and will definitely do their best.
In these two games, Real Madrid must die.
Next is the home game against Malaga, which is a relegated team, and the difficulty is not very great.
But the last round is an away game against Sevilla. This team is currently competing with Osasuna for the fourth place in the league, and it will definitely smash Real Madrid in the game.
In other words, the three away games are all the most difficult games to play, and the opponents are stronger than the other.
Barcelona's recent consecutive loss of points, even in Osasuna, Racing Santander and Sevilla, are all away games.
This is equivalent to that Real Madrid will have to pass every hurdle that Barcelona has faced in the near future.
Even if they pass all the way, whether they can win the championship depends on Barcelona's face.
is it hard?
Disaster!
Very difficult!
As tyrannical as Barcelona, they all fell down on these teams.
But no matter how difficult it is, Real Madrid has to go through it!
When confronted with questions from reporters from the Daily Sports News, Gao Shen always kept a smile on his face and maintained his demeanor.
Gao Shen didn't answer until the other party had finished asking. The team's upcoming schedule is indeed difficult, and every game is difficult.
"However, what is easy in this world?" Gao Shen changed the topic and asked the media reporters on the scene, especially the Catalan journalists who were the first to bear the brunt.
"Is it easy for you? It's not easy for you for news, for sales, for pleasing readers, isn't it?"
"I don't think it's a problem. The opponents in the game are not easy to play, so let's play one game at a time, and go through one hurdle after another."
"I don't know, what qualifications do you have to say these things in front of me, are we inferior to Barcelona?" Gao Shen asked back.
"When I took over, we were 10 points behind Barcelona, but now? We almost came back from the lead, and you are here to tell me that we have no chance?"
Gao Shen didn't get angry, but his tone was very tough, firm and forceful.
The press conference scene also became completely silent, and everyone paid attention to Gao Shen, focusing on his every word, every expression, and every body movement.
He has become the focus of attention of the audience, and also the focus of fans in Spain, Europe, and even the whole world.
"We didn't despair when we were ten points behind, and we won't be now!"
"I can say one thing here right now, if Barcelona want to win the championship, then they have only one way, and win all the remaining four games, otherwise, the championship must belong to us Real Madrid!"
