Super Marshal

Chapter 226 What a pity

The league has reached the twenty-second round.

In the earliest game, Real Madrid beat Celta Vigo 1-0 with Raul's lore goal.

Del Bosque even replaced three stars early in this game, including Zidane and Raul, obviously saving his strength for the second round of the Copa del Rey semi-final in the middle of the week.

Deportivo also carried out a rotation. With Ma Kai's goal, they beat Sevilla 1-0 in the away game.

Irueta also vowed that although he lost 0-2 at home, he is still determined to make a comeback away.

In this battle, it is not only necessary to counterattack and enter the Copa del Rey final, but also to overthrow the inherent impression of Deportivo in one fell swoop.

Atletico Madrid beat Villarreal 1-0 away.

Although it was also a small victory by one goal, the Sheets played more steadily and created more opportunities, but they didn't grasp them.

But no matter from which point of view, it is quite rare to maintain the winning streak in continuous two-line combat.

Alaves and Valencia have also won successively, among which the Bat Army has a small victory of 1 to 0.

Only Barcelona, ​​which has been plagued by scandals, was beaten by Malaga at the Nou Camp, and the team's performance was extremely sluggish.

This defeat also caused Barcelona's league ranking to drop to ninth in the league all of a sudden, and the anger of Camp Nou fans became even stronger.

But not only that, the Brazilian superstar Rivaldo also had a disagreement with the club. In order to transfer, there was a lot of trouble.

But at this fatal moment, the sworn enemy Real Madrid stepped forward to add insult to injury.

General manager Valdano said in an interview with the media that Real Madrid is very interested in introducing Rivaldo.

And this immediately aroused the indignation of the Catalan media and Barcelona fans. How can the Figo incident a year and a half ago be reproduced again?

For a while, the Catalan media and the Madrid media were arguing, and it was very lively.

It was amidst all the commotion that the second round of the Copa del Rey semi-final kicked off quietly.

Taking a two-goal lead and returning to their home court, Atletico Madrid still played very actively and launched a round of attack after the opening.

Although he failed to score a goal, this round of attack disrupted the rhythm of Deportivo and achieved the tactical goal that Gao Han wanted.

After that, the Sheets still played very patiently, while Deportivo looked more impatient. The two sides stalemate in Calderon for the entire first half.

But in the second half, Atletico Madrid suddenly launched an onslaught.

After the exquisite cooperation between Kaka and Deco in the middle, Deco made a wonderful pass to Torres in the penalty area. After throwing off Deportivo's South African defender Nebbitt, he calmly pushed and pierced the ball. Molina's goal.

It was also the only goal of the game.

In the end, Atletico Madrid eliminated Deportivo with a total score of 3-0 and successfully entered the final.

The other game, played a day later, was also played at the Bernabéu in Madrid.

Before the game, Florentino, Valdano and other core management successively issued orders to the team, asking Real Madrid to reverse Athletic Bilbao at home no matter what, and must win this game. Advance to the final.

Bosque also played a very aggressive 442 formation in this game.

It is worth mentioning that the substitute central defender Pavon rotated the veteran Hierro to start, partnering with Karanka.

Real Madrid is determined to win, and Athletic Bilbao is also aware of the opponent's mentality, so in the away game, Heynckes developed a counter-attack tactic, defending the team as solidly as possible throughout the first half, and did not give Real Madrid the slightest chance .

The fight between the two sides was in full swing. Real Madrid was getting more and more aggressive, and it was very risky to pounce, but Athletic Bilbao remained motionless. They played a defensive counterattack with peace of mind, but played more threateningly.

Seeing that the situation is gradually tilting in favor of Athletic Bilbao, at the critical moment, Athletic Bilbao's central defender Laleenza made a mistake at a critical moment and scored an own goal.

This goal completely rewrote the trend of the game.

Athletic Bilbao, who originally held the initiative, suddenly fell into a disadvantage.

Even if Heynckes was reluctant, he had to make adjustments at this time and began to counterattack.

But seven minutes later, Raúl's goal further extended Real Madrid's lead, and Guti's goal in the 75th minute completely pronounced the death sentence for Athletic Bilbao.

In the end, Real Madrid beat Athletic Bilbao 3-0 at home, and then eliminated their opponents with a total score of 4-2.

At this point, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid, the city rivals, will gather in the Copa del Rey final.

"Cough, what a pity!"

In the coach's office at the Majadaenda Sports City, after watching Real Madrid's match against Athletic Bilbao, the coaches of Atletico Madrid lamented the loss of Athletic Bilbao.

The sigh came from a young coach, Unai Emery, only 30 years old.

He has been playing in low-level leagues before, but he has taught himself coaching courses, and now he has obtained a coaching qualification certificate. Not long ago, he wrote to Gao Han, hoping to have the opportunity to study at Atletico Madrid.

During the team training during the winter break, Gao Han and the club arranged for several coaches including him to come and study. During this period of time, Unai Emery won the affirmation of the head coach Gao Han and was able to stay in Madrid sports.

For this reason, he even gave up his career early.

In his words, being able to learn from Gao Han at Atletico Madrid is more meaningful than anything else.

"In this game, Heynckes' formation and on-the-spot command were all impeccable, but La Leenza's own goal completely changed the situation on the field. This is a crime other than war."

Gao Han also felt sorry.

He has met the coach Heynckes a few times, and his impression is very good. He also has a deep understanding of football. He has his own set of ideas and ideas. More importantly, he does not have some veteran coaches to boss him around.

Judging from the two rounds, Heynckes has done quite well, but if the players make mistakes, what can the head coach do?

"In this way, our opponent in the final is Real Madrid." Cantarero said without worry.

After hearing this, everyone felt a little uneasy.

Don't look at Atletico Madrid's three wins against Real Madrid this season, but the next fourth and fifth consecutive games will be held at the Bernabeu Stadium, especially the fifth Copa del Rey final, Real Madrid must be determined to win .

This will be a big test for Atletico Madrid.

After listening to Gao Han, he saw everyone's reaction in his eyes, and he knew in his heart that Atletico Madrid's rise this season was too fast and too sudden, and the mentality of everyone in the team failed to keep up. There are also deep shadows.

This is not something that can be eliminated by three consecutive victories.

Perhaps, killing the opponent in the final of the King's Cup and winning the championship on the opponent's **** can be eliminated, but now...

"We should think in reverse, Real Madrid may not be more difficult than Athletic Bilbao."

Speaking of this, Gao Han pointed at the TV and smiled confidently, "If we really met this Athletic Bilbao team in the first half, I'm afraid it would be difficult for us to win the opponent with confidence. Ball fight..."

Everyone heard Gao Han's words, and after thinking about it again, it was true.

Athletic Bilbao was trained by Heynckes to be called an iron army. The style of play is relatively rough, but not rough. The offensive and defensive transition speed is very fast, which is different from other teams in La Liga. It left a very deep impression on people.

"I think Mr. Gao Han is right, playing Real Madrid, we have a psychological advantage." Emery echoed.

Gao Han nodded, and looked at Emery approvingly, and he could see this, this kid is a talent.

As a head coach, the potential is very high, and he will be a talent in the future.

However, for a thirty-year-old guy to learn from his twenty-five-year-old self, it always makes people feel a little...

"Two Champions League titles in three years, last season's league championship, the team's star-studded team, and the chaos of its arch-enemy Barcelona have given Real Madrid unprecedented self-confidence. That's why they are blindly arrogant enough to ask the Spanish Football Association to win the Copa del Rey. The final is scheduled to be held at the Bernabeu in advance."

When Gao Han said this, a stern look flashed in his eyes, "This in itself is very arrogant!"

Everyone nodded.

If not arrogant, who would dare to do this?

Doesn't this clearly tell the whole world that we are going to win this championship?

Booking the championship in advance before the game is played is tantamount to putting the whole team on fire.

"Think about it again. In the second half of the first half, the mentality of Real Madrid's players was a little out of control, and the fans at the Bernabéu Stadium couldn't sit still. This is only the semi-final, and it's really the final..."

Gao Han snorted twice, but didn't say anything, but the meaning was very clear.

In the final, their mentality will be worse and more aggressive.

When everyone heard Gao Han's analysis, they couldn't help but be amazed.

They really only considered Real Madrid's strong side and the advantage of playing at home before, but they didn't notice that, as Gao Han said, the bigger the game, the more obvious the advantage of playing at home , The greater the psychological pressure on Real Madrid.

On the contrary, it is the away game team. In the final of the Copa del Rey, the visiting team has no psychological pressure and is more relaxed.

In this situation of ebb and flow, I am afraid it is difficult to tell who is more dominant, right?

Gao Han saw that all the assistants had reacted one after another, and couldn't help but smiled again.

"Since Real Madrid dared to schedule the Copa del Rey final on the day of ****, it means that they made it clear that they don't take other La Liga competitors seriously."

At this point, Gao Han raised his right hand and smiled confidently: "Then we don't mind, represent other teams in La Liga, challenge our Galaxy Battleship, and try whether they are really as good as they imagined." Powerful, so invincible!"

Everyone deeply felt the strong self-confidence in Gao Han, especially Emery, who was full of admiration.
