Starting with Real Madrid

In the 30th round of La Liga, Barcelona played away to Malaga.

Although Barcelona had excellent luck in the draw for the Champions League quarter-finals and drew the weakest Portuguese Super League, Benfica, Rijkaard still did not dare to be careless. In the match against Málaga, a large rotation was carried out.

Ronaldinho, Deco, Xavi, Puyol and others all rested and played in Málaga with almost all substitutes.

Among the regular starters, only Eto'o and Giuli, who became the main force after Messi's season was scrapped, started.

Unexpectedly, at the Rose Garden Stadium, Barcelona encountered a tenacious sniper from Malaga.

Without Ronaldinho, Xavi, Deco and Iniesta, Barcelona's frontcourt attack was seriously lacking in creativity, and it was more through the cooperation between Eto'o, Larsen and Giuli. Create opportunities.

But it's hard to knock down Malaga's defenses.

Giuly was very active on the right and completely dominated Barcelona's attack.

In stoppage time, it was Giuli's free kick on the right, Larson headed the ball and Eto'o followed up and scored.

However, the Malaga players protested the handball foul by Larsen during the header, which caused a strong reaction from the scene.

The referee ruled that the goal was invalid on the pitch, but according to the slow-motion replay of the live TV footage, Larson actually did not commit a handball foul. This was an obvious misjudgment.

Failed to score in the first half, and after changing sides in the second half, Barcelona's offense still did not improve.

And what is puzzling is that Rijkaard replaced Giuli, who was the most active, at 60 minutes.

Although it didn't take long for Iniesta to come on as a substitute, Barcelona's midfield organization improved, but in the end, it was unable to break Malaga's goal again, and the two sides shook hands zero to zero.

Twenty-two shots, ten shots on target, and none of them scored. Barcelona returned from the Rose Garden.

……

Real Madrid's game is a day later than Barcelona's.

Both Gao Shen and the coaching staff watched the live broadcast of the Barcelona game in Valdebebas. The result of zero to zero was unexpected. Because Malaga is currently ranked bottom in La Liga, relegation is basically a sure thing.

The top spot in La Liga is tied at the bottom of La Liga, which is an unpopular one.

Even Rijkaard dared to make such a strong rotation because he felt that he could easily win Malaga, but who would have thought that the Rose Garden would be so difficult.

The unpopularity was caused by many factors, including the referee's misjudgment, but this has not changed.

The actual situation now is that Barcelona has lost points again.

After watching the live broadcast, the coach's office was very quiet.

Gao Shen was thinking about a very tempting question.

Do you want to take the opportunity to shorten the points gap?

According to Gao Shen's original plan, the game against Deportivo Deportivo at home on the weekend will also be heavily rotated. The purpose is also very simple, that is, to better prepare to go to Turin to challenge Juventus next Wednesday.

How tough Capello's team is, just look at their lineup and think about Capello's style.

Not to mention Real Madrid, which is now old, weak and sick. Even if Real Madrid was in its peak state back then, it would have to be quite a bit dreadful when it came to Juventus. Gao Shen had to recharge and go all out.

But now Bass is level.

What does this represent?

After Barcelona drew with Málaga, the points with Real Madrid increased to eight points, but Real Madrid had one less game.

If Real Madrid can beat Deportivo Deportivo at home tomorrow night, the gap will be reduced to five points.

From ten points to five points, Real Madrid will have more confidence and fighting spirit for next weekend's national derby.

But this will inevitably affect the Champions League next Wednesday.

Facing Benfica, Rijkaard chose to make a big rotation, but Facing Capello's Juventus.

The Champions League is tempting, but so is the league.

"What do you think?" Gao Shen asked.

Everyone knew what Gao Shen was asking.

"There is a chance, but... it's too risky." Maqueda said cautiously.

Gao Shen didn't say anything, he nodded encouragingly and motioned him to continue.

"We all know how strong Juventus is, and this team is very stable. Even if we concentrate all the elites and go to the Alp Stadium in the best state, we may not be able to take advantage of it. If we are distracted by the league. ,I am afraid……"

Everyone nodded.

As a traveler, Gao Shen knew in his heart that Serie A was about to encounter the telephone door incident, and then quickly declined.

But before the telephone door, how strong Serie A was, it is difficult for the latecomers to understand and appreciate.

In particular, Capello's Juventus is too strong.

There are the best players in the world in almost every position. With a lineup formed in this way, coupled with Capello, who is as stable as an old dog, one can imagine how difficult it is for Juventus to play.

"It's true to say so, but now Barcelona has made a mistake again, the opportunity is in front of us, don't we want it?" Lucas put forward a different opinion.

He now understands Gao Shen's behavior. As long as Gao Shen proposes a discussion, everyone will express their opinions together.

"We are chasing Barcelona hard. Now we grit our teeth and try to win La Coruna in the league. The gap between points will be shortened. In the Champions League, we will stick to the road and return to the home court to decide the winner."

As soon as Lucas finished speaking, Maqueda said: "This is too risky, and it is ideal, but in fact, we may not be able to leave Turin whole, once we lose the ball, Capello's team is will not give us any chance."

Capello believes in the one-to-zero doctrine, which, as the name suggests, is to score one more goal than the opponent.

From this point of view, it is not difficult to see how good the team he coached is defensively.

Of course, Gao Shen has also been dubbed Capello II recently, because his Real Madrid is also playing 1-0 and is very conservative.

"I still insist on my opinion. It is now the 30th round, and the league is about to come to an end. If we can't shorten the gap as soon as possible, the pressure will increase and we will have to give up the league in the end, but the Champions League..."

Lucas didn't finish his sentence, but the meaning was very clear. Real Madrid's situation in the Champions League is not much better than La Liga.

Gao knows Lucas deeply. He wants to fight, and feels that the team can fight for opportunities in both La Liga and the Champions League at the same time.

Maqueda's idea is also very reasonable, because after playing Deportivo, he will play Juventus in the middle of the week and Barcelona on the weekend. He will play three games in a row. This pressure is not ordinary. No team in 2018 could do it, so Rijkaard had to rotate and be taken advantage of by Malaga.

The original strategy of the Real Madrid coaching staff was to fight Juventus and Barcelona.

Gao Shen turned to look at Buenaventura, "Lorenzo, what do you think?"

Buenaventura has just arrived at the team, but he has been deeply and deeply used. He has been entrusted with important tasks since the beginning. He must listen to his opinions in every game, and now is no exception.

"Both opinions are justified, it depends on whether you should be proactive or more prudent."

After a pause, Buenaventura looked at the people around him again, and suggested, "Actually, several Brazilian players in the team are in good health and their physical fitness is also good. Is it possible..."

"It's not yet time, this matter is not discussed." Gao Shen interrupted Buenaventura before he could finish speaking.

Buenaventura was stunned for a moment, but he did not expect Gao Shen to be so determined.

Looking at the others, I immediately understood why no one raised this opinion.

"That's it for the time being. Everyone think about it, and I will think about it. Let's talk about it tomorrow morning."

In fact, Gao Shen also knew in his heart that several members of the Brazilian Gang would be a great help now.

Ronaldo, Baptista, Carlos, Robinho and Cicinho, if these five players can participate in the game, it will be a great help to Real Madrid.

But he can't just focus on the present, but consider the overall situation.

During his tenure at Real Madrid, he has been suppressing the Brazilian gang, just to make them submissive and obedient.

As long as they are soft and obedient, then Gao Shen will use them smoothly, they will obey the team's overall tactical discipline, and they will work **** the court, and Real Madrid will be able to work together as a whole.

Now, the time is not ripe, especially when Gao Shen took the initiative to let the Brazilians play. After that, will the Brazilians have to be more arrogant? Isn't everything that Gao Shen has done before?

Judging from Ronaldo's remarks, he can't help it anymore, it's just a little bit.

These Brazilian players must all want to participate in the World Cup in Germany, and they will definitely be resigned.

It's not worth it to give up now.

……

Leaving Valdebebas~www.wuxiax.com~ Gao Shen stepped on his bicycle and returned to the Odalesa district.

Along the way, he was weighing and considering this matter.

In fact, this is never about right and wrong, but about trade-offs and trade-offs.

In the field of professional sports, if you win, it's fragrant to give a fart, and whatever you do is right. If you lose, no matter how much you have a righteous reason, it's an excuse.

Especially the head coach.

Therefore, some people say that the manager is the most risky profession in European football, and the risk is higher than that of the players.

At the very least, the team's performance is poor. The first thing to do is to use the head coach instead of the players.

Gao Shen came home, and after washing up, he lay in the bed and directly entered the tactical library.

During this time, he spent time in the library, continued to study Benitez's books, and at the same time read the works of others, such as Ferguson, Wenger, Ranieri and so on.

Before each game, he would also carefully read the books of the opponent's coach to learn about the opponent's tactical concepts, game ideas and some commanding styles, which was of great benefit to him.

It can be said that in the past period, Real Madrid's consecutive victories were inseparable from Gao Shen's promotion in the library.

In recent days, Gao Shen has been reading the books of Juventus' two former head coaches, Silver Fox Lippi and Capello, to find a way to deal with Juventus.

The books of these two tactical masters can be described as extensive and profound, especially the understanding and practice of some tactical theories, which makes Gao Shen mesmerized, not only giving him a deeper understanding of Italian football, but also an understanding of Italian football. The essence of football tactics has a further understanding.

For example, what makes a great team?
