ball at foot

After the signings, Real Madrid also started a new game schedule after a short winter break.

This schedule is not too much trouble: After the devil's schedule before Christmas, Real Madrid and Barcelona returned to the same starting line. At this time, what everyone has to do is to maintain stability in the next game.

As for the other teams... Although they may not admit it, they have to say that after half a season, according to Real Madrid and Barcelona's style of play, their other teams will be soy sauce.If these two guys go on like this, the hope of other teams is to fight for No.3.

And in the second half of the season, before the start of the Champions League, it is also a period of time when the team needs to guarantee the results most.After all, this period of time is basically a single-line battle. The stability of the team determines the specific performance of the team, and its success has a lot to do with the games during this period.

And the game was easier and simpler than they imagined. In the league game, Real Madrid's first game against Mallorca, Zhao Yaning, Ibrahimovic and Ribery scored a goal alone, scoring for Real Madrid. A big win. [

But at this time, there was another problem, which began to be placed in front of Real Madrid.

The Copa del Rey match has now begun.Although Real Madrid, as a seeded team, does not need to play in the first three rounds, but at this time, they also need to enter the battle.

"Didn't we say, don't care about the King's Cup?" Zhao Yaning was a little puzzled about this question.

From the time he first arrived at Real Madrid, he was told: Real Madrid doesn't care about the Copa del Rey game at all, it doesn't matter whether the Copa del Rey is played well or not.But now, Ancelotti told him that the Copa del Rey game must be won, which made him feel a little strange.

"I really don't want to care about it, but Mr. Florentino thinks that there is no harm in getting one more trophy." Ancelotti shrugged, "So, we should devote some energy to the King's Cup game gone."

Real Madrid didn't play well in the Copa del Rey game last season, but this season, they can no longer give up blindly: Florentino's ambition is obviously not small, what he hopes is to get more More awards, instead of just playing the league and the Champions League blindly.

After all, Real Madrid has already won two consecutive league titles, and in the Champions League, no one dares to say that Real Madrid must be the one to win.That being the case, then Real Madrid must have some fresh champions to show Florentino's extraordinaryness. Therefore, he also instructed Ancelotti to play the King's Cup well.

Ancelotti is a good coach in other things, but his biggest problem is that he is too easy-going.He will not refuse such a request from the "chairman" of the team.Moreover, although Real Madrid said they were going to fight on the third line, after all, Real Madrid's thickness is good. Ancelotti felt that it was not impossible to play on the third line.

After all, the Copa del Rey schedule is very interesting: it is almost all concentrated in December and January, and in February and March, there are only two semi-final games left, and throughout April, there is no king Cup competition, and in May, there will be a final.

Even if it is calculated according to the most schedule, Real Madrid reached the final, at least, the Copa del Rey schedule does not have much conflict with the Champions League.Except for the second semi-final in March, which is only a week away from the Champions League match with Lyon, other matches will not affect the European war.Of course, if he enters the Champions League final, the combined schedule of the Champions League final, the league and the Copa del Rey may be tighter, but Ancelotti is thinking, if he really has such good luck and can hit the treble, then Even if you are a little tired, what's the big deal?

In fact, it is only this month that really needs more work.As long as this month changes from one game a week to two games a week, one more trophy can be won.But even so, the Real Madrid players are still very unhappy.

"It's really meaningless." Regarding this, Casillas' view is quite straightforward, "I have never won the King's Cup, nor have I played the King's Cup seriously, but I don't feel too regretful, it's no big deal .”

"Didn't you enter the finals in 04?" Zhao Yaning asked back.

"In that year's Copa del Rey, a substitute goalkeeper was used, and I didn't even play." Cassie replied, "This kind of game is originally a placebo, so what's so important?"

"But Florentino obviously decided that there are no meaningful championships, only championships that can't be won-so he asked us to fight for the King's Cup." Guti snorted from the side, "Who is responsible for the exhaustion of physical strength? ? If any championship is important, will it be an honor if we win the Bernabeu next time? Should we parade to celebrate after winning the Bernabeu?"

Guti doesn't like the Copa del Rey. After all, he still has the idea of ​​a Real Madrid player: the Champions League and the league are the most important things for Real Madrid. What is the Copa del Rey or something?

Raul patted Guti and stopped him from talking, and Ancelotti also changed the subject in time to stop him from criticizing Florentino, "Our luck in this year's Copa del Rey is still quite good , Our division is very good. Basically all the strong teams are in the other half of the division. On our side, at most we can touch Barcelona and it will be over. Sevilla, Valencia, Athletic Bilbao, Billy Arreal, both in the other half. And our opponent in this game is... Royal Federation. It's not difficult for us, is it?"

The schedule of the King's Cup is set from the beginning, and it can be roughly calculated in which round they will meet those teams.It is precisely because of this that there are fewer talents in the Copa del Rey: after all, seeing your opponent and knowing who you are going to face early on is easy to discourage people.

"Why do the words royal and federation sound so awkward when you put them together?" Zhao Yaning muttered. [

Speaking of the game, this season, Real Madrid's Copa del Rey is indeed a bit confident: After all, Real Madrid has a deep bench, and the Copa del Rey can naturally work hard.

In fact, Zhao Yaning didn’t say much about it: Anyway, on the bench, there are Ruud van Nistelrooy, Higuain, Mata, Martinez, Guti, Flamini and a group of substitute stars. any problem.Even when it comes to Real Madrid's defensive line that has been criticized, there are Heinze, Metzelder and other stars on the bench. They are here, and Real Madrid's defense will not cause any problems-such a deep bench , Pulling out alone, they can compete for a place in the European war in La Liga. It should not be a big problem to let them play in the King's Cup.Ancelotti mentioned this matter just to remind everyone that if they really meet Barcelona, ​​then the main players will still play.

And before meeting Barcelona... Although Ruud van Nistelrooy can no longer play the main position in Real Madrid, he is still a god-killer when playing other teams in Spain.

They are no longer needed to play teams like the Royal Federation now.In the Copa del Rey match, Ruud van Nistelrooy and Higuain played extremely brilliantly. Relying on Higuaing's goal and Ruud van Nistelrooy's almost perfect performance, Real Madrid almost didn't encounter any problems and went directly to the next round The game against Real Betis.

After all, these games are not the focus. The most important thing for Real Madrid is the league game.In the league match against Osasuna, Raul scored twice, Zhao Yaning free kick to expand the score, a 3-0, Real Madrid won again.

"The competition between the two teams is becoming more and more fierce, and it is becoming more and more inseparable."

While Real Madrid won, Barcelona also won again and again.They did not have the problem of physical exhaustion. Obviously, the slow pace and low-intensity oppression allowed them to save a lot of physical energy.Guardiola is a very smart coach. Although in terms of tactical details, he still has some problems because of his youth and idealization, but in terms of the overall situation, he is very "excellent": he knows how to focus on the overall situation and use tactics. Make up for the lack of combat effectiveness and maintain long-term competitiveness.This makes the struggle between Real Madrid and Barcelona has become a protracted battle.

Because Real Madrid is in the death group in the Champions League, the game requires two-line combat, which requires a lot of effort. In the first half of the season, they did not have an advantage when playing football. Although they defeated Barcelona, ​​​​the points are still the same.In the second half of the season, seeing how they swept the league, if they want to decide the winner, it is estimated that they will have to wait until after the start of the Champions League match.

After this game, Real Madrid sent Zhao Yaning to the field again in the Copa del Rey match against Real Betis.And Zhao Yaning scored three goals in a row in the game, and while winning a victory, he also completed a hat-trick.

"This is Zhao Yaning's first hat-trick this season, and it is also Zhao Yaning's first appearance in the King's Cup. Obviously he has proved that he is an extremely good player no matter which field he is in."

And then, Real Madrid defeated Deportivo in the game. Zhao Yaning first scored a free kick in this game, and then assisted Ribery to score a goal. Relying on his outstanding performance, Real Madrid won Down another victory.

And because Real Madrid had already won a big victory against Real Betis, so in the next Copa del Rey schedule, Real Madrid did not use the main force again, but they still entered the next round smoothly.

Numancia, who followed closely behind, failed to cause any trouble for Real Madrid. Real Madrid even made a rotation in this game. With Bu's goal and a header from Ivanovic who went forward, Real Madrid still won.

And the reason why Zhao Yaning was rotated was not without reason. Soon, Zhao Yaning appeared again in the King’s Cup against Magala.In order to keep Zhao Yaning in a better state, strive for a game to determine the outcome.

After all, winning Malaga means that Real Madrid has entered the semi-finals. At that time, Real Madrid will need to compete with Barcelona on the two fronts of the Copa del Rey and the league.

In this game, Real Madrid won a big victory here.Ruud van Nistelrooy scored twice, Guti and Higuain both scored. Although Zhao Yaning didn't score, he played a very beautiful game and was named the best player in the game after the game.

But these are not important things.The most important thing is: After Real Madrid won this game, Real Madrid will also face Barcelona again in the Copa del Rey.

And this is also the time to verify the tactics Ancelotti arranged for himself.
