Chapter 1243 A Hurdle

Ramos gets another red card!

After Real Madrid eliminated Barcelona and successfully reached the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey, the media focused more on Ramos, especially his behavior towards the referee during the intermission. Many people found it difficult to understand. .

"This time a very stupid foul!" Aspen even criticized mercilessly.

Indeed, such an appeal is unnecessary at all, because the referee cannot overturn the previous penalty and the first half is over. Lost my sanity and got a red card, which is terrible.

Alfredo also accused Ramos in his column, thinking that Real Madrid almost paid for his stupidity!

The editor-in-chief of AS Daily believes that as early as last summer, when Real Madrid appointed the team captain, many people had doubts about Ramos, because he was never a good guy, and now such a scene finally appeared again.

"If it weren't for Yang Yang, it would be hard for us to imagine how Real Madrid, with one less player in the second half, would win against Barcelona."

In addition to the two media close to Real Madrid, other Spanish media and even European media have criticized Ramos' behavior, believing that as the captain of the team, he has set a very bad example.

Many Real Madrid fans even posted messages on Real Madrid's official website, calling on the club to replace the captain.

"We can't be sure, when will he make such a mistake again next time!"

In the past, Ramos could be described as young, hot-blooded, and impulsive, but now he is 28 years old and will soon be 29 years old. Such a player should calm himself down instead of being so impulse.

Even Real Madrid coach Ancelotti felt very helpless when he was asked by the media at the post-match press conference and talked about the red card, "This red card is not necessary, but it makes us have to fight hard. Fortunately, our defensive organization is very solid, and Yang Yang stepped forward again at the critical moment."

If it is said that Ramos has received overwhelming accusations, then Yang Yang has received overwhelming praise.

Especially the crucial goal in the second half, when the two defensive players, Piqué and Mathieu, pulled and dragged, Yang Yang insisted on making a bloody way, and steadily sent the ball into the Barcelona goal, opening the road to victory for Real Madrid. Door.

No one can deny that it was Yang Yang who led Real Madrid out of the predicament.

And on the second day after playing Barcelona, ​​Spanish TV 6 News reported that Real Madrid will temporarily put aside the contract renewal negotiations with Ramos. There are two reasons. One is that Real Madrid is not very satisfied with Ramos' performance. The other is that Ramos' salary requirements are too high, so Real Madrid must reconsider.

As early as the past period of time, the renewal of Ramos has always been a topic of concern to Real Madrid, because he is the captain of the team, and during the winter break, there were even rumors that Manchester United wanted to introduce Ramos.

At that time, many Real Madrid fans even ran to Valdebebas to pull a banner, calling on the club to renew Ramos as soon as possible.

But with the red card against Barcelona, ​​such calls have obviously weakened a lot.

Ramos's current salary is about 6 million after tax, but when the Spanish central defender hopes to renew his contract, his salary can be doubled on this basis, which is about 12 million euros, which is far beyond Real Madrid's bottom line.

In the current Real Madrid team, Yang Yang's salary is one of the best, and it can even be said to be special among special ones.

Long before Yang Yang renewed his contract, some Spanish tabloid media questioned whether Yang Yang was worthy of such a high salary, but Jose Sanchez, head of Real Madrid's business department at the time, personally clarified that Yang Yang's salary was not more, but less.

At that time, Jose Sanchez said a word, "If any player can create as high commercial value as Yang Yang for Real Madrid, oh no, only need to create half of Yang Yang's commercial value, we will do everything for him. A sky-high contract and a huge annual salary."

At the press conference to renew the contract with Yang Yang, Florentino also said personally that Yang Yang is an unprecedented miracle in the history of professional football, not only on the field, but also in the commercial field, and he has created extraordinary value.

Later, UEFA President Michel Platini also mentioned in an exclusive interview after the Ballon d'Or that Yang Yang has greatly expanded the boundaries of professional football, not only at the competitive level, but also at the commercial level. He has the strongest spending power. America's most influential superstar.

All kinds of things show that Yang Yang is a unique special case, and no one can compare with him.

Ramos has never thought of competing with Yang Yang. The annual salary he hopes to get is to become the leader of the second echelon of Real Madrid's annual salary structure after becoming Yang Yang, that is, an annual salary of more than 10 million euros after tax.

This is obviously also the strategy given by the agent, because when Barcelona renewed the contracts of Harvey and Iniesta, they both gave an annual salary of over 10 million euros after tax. Since they can, as the captain of Real Madrid, Ramos, why not Woolen cloth?

This was supposed to be a negotiation and negotiation between the Ramos team and Real Madrid, but with the red card against Barcelona, ​​it was quickly poked out by the media and quickly ignited the anger of Real Madrid fans.

Real Madrid members and fans continue to leave messages on the official website, or write letters to the club, thinking that Ramos is not worthy of such a high annual salary based on his performance, and should even be deprived of his captaincy.

The outside media also seemed to be sharks that smelled blood, swarming up one after another, biting Ramos and not letting go.

Obviously, this is a topic that is very easy to arouse fans' discussions. On the one hand, it is a red card, and at the same time, it is a huge annual salary. What could be more exciting than this?

Sensing the turbulent public opinion from the outside world, Real Madrid officials remained silent and did not respond.

This is also a strategy of the club. Although it did not hit Ramos, it is also using public opinion to put pressure on Ramos, hoping to take more initiative in contract renewal negotiations.

In the current Real Madrid team, an annual salary of 10 million euros has always been a hurdle.

As early as 2009, except for a few players such as Yang Yang and Zlatan Ibrahimovic, basically no one in the team could get an annual salary of more than 10 million euros. There is only Yang Yang alone.

It was rumored before that Real Madrid wanted to renew Suarez's contract, and his annual salary would definitely exceed 10 million.

In addition to Suarez, Hazard, Di Maria, Modric and other players are also facing contract renewals.

In other words, after this round of contract renewals, Real Madrid's overall salary will have a very obvious and substantial increase.

Compared with Real Madrid's annual income, the salary expenditure pressure is not great, but if it is not properly controlled, once it is left unchecked, it may become uncontrollable at any time.

This also has a lot to do with the external environment.

Paris Saint-Germain, Manchester City, Barcelona and other teams are very willing to give money in terms of poaching and signings, especially in terms of annual salary. The annual salary expenditure of these teams is very high, especially Barcelona, ​​​​almost reaching the club's financial More than 70% of the income, this is quite a scary figure.

It is Florentino's bottom line to draw a red line on the annual salary. Because of this, Real Madrid is very haggard when negotiating with players, so that the fans called on the club to raise Ramos' salary before.

After this round of hype from the outside media, both Real Madrid and the Ramos team also adopted a cold treatment, temporarily shelving negotiations, and Real Madrid turned to open a contract renewal negotiation channel with other players.

…………

On the afternoon of January 31st, at the Bernabeu Stadium in Madrid.

In the twenty-first round of La Liga, Real Madrid played against Real Sociedad at home.

The game was played in sleet, the field conditions were terrible, and Real Madrid had bad luck.

Only thirty-six seconds into the game, Real Sociedad created a corner kick in their first attack, and the result was a direct corner kick and a missed player caused by a defensive error. This has become a common problem for Real Madrid.

But fortunately, this time Real Madrid came to their senses very quickly. In just three minutes, Real Madrid equalized the score. Yang Yang cut in from the left, and after colliding with Hazard, he scored a curve ball into the far corner. Once again scored in the Yang Yang area.

In the 37th minute, Marcelo made a diagonal pass from the left. Yang Yang stopped the ball and hit the goal directly, but was saved by the goalkeeper. Ramos followed up and made up for it.

The Real Madrid captain, who had just received a red card in the Copa del Rey, performed redemption on his home court.

Everyone in Real Madrid also ran to Ramos immediately after scoring the goal to congratulate him on the goal, which also showed the outside world the unity atmosphere within Real Madrid.

The outside media can hype wantonly regardless of the consequences, but Real Madrid can't do it inside.

What's more, Ramos has always been like this. Leaving aside this point, he is definitely the top central defender in world football. If he can't even tolerate such a player, where else can Real Madrid find a central defender?

After changing sides in the second half and fighting again, only six minutes later, Yang Yang once again cooperated with Hazard on the left. With a burst shot in front of the goal, he broke through the Real Sociedad goal again and scored twice.

Three to one!

In the 77th minute of the game, Marcelo made a pass from the left, and James Rodriguez, who came off the bench, scored a header nine meters in front of the goal and knocked on the goal of Real Sociedad again, four to one. !

In the end, Real Madrid reversed Real Sociedad 4-1 at home, and the visiting team did not get a good chance.

Illararamendi played the whole game and his performance was quite satisfactory. Although he was not as eye-catching as Mascherano, he was still relatively stable and did not make serious mistakes.

Obviously, Ancelotti is still giving him opportunities, hoping to help him integrate into Real Madrid.

Both the coaching staff and the management still hope that Illarramendi can stay in Real Madrid and take over Mascherano's class.

After playing Real Sociedad, Real Madrid also ushered in the first hurdle after the winter break.
