The days of playing football with Da Luo

Chapter 470 Real Madrid's Most Indispensable Player

In his post-match press conference, Pellegrini did not admit that the team was cornered.He said: "The boys played very well in this game. We have been firmly in control of the initiative on the field. We are fully prepared for the opponent's strength and have responded very well on the field. This game Winning won't be easy, but it's a given."

"I am very happy that Ronnie is back to form, his double is very important for the team. He always contributes to the team and I am very satisfied with his performance. As you can see, the relationship between me and him There is no conflict between them. Sometimes he is not played because of the team's tactical needs. When the team needs him and his physical condition is fine, I will not hesitate to let him play. Only a madman will put him on the field. Such a good player has been on the bench."

"Today we all saw an omnipotent Ricciardo, he provided two assists and scored a goal himself. I believe he is the core of Real Madrid, from now until 10 years later he will be. He He is the most indispensable player of Real Madrid, two Ballon d'Ors, two World Player of the Year awards have proved his worth, I don't need to say more."

"With such a good group of players, our aim is to reach the Champions League final. Not reaching the final would be a failed season for us and I have zero tolerance for failure."

Some reporters also said that even Roma has caused you so much trouble, how can you have the confidence to reach the final?That's not what the original words said, but that's what it means.

Pellegrini smiled slightly, but did not answer directly.

Instead, it was Spalletti who got pissed off by the question.When it was his turn to speak, he said blankly: "The lads played well, we tried our best, but luck was not on our side. Real Madrid is a strong team, they have too many good players, Even some of the best players in the world. Yet we played as a unit and what we lacked in technique we made up for with run and will and I'm so proud of the lads."

"Our original goal was to reach the last four, but now we have no choice but to fall outside the last eight, which is a pity. We played very well this season and I think we deserved a title or two. Next season we We will continue to work hard, we want to prove to the world that we are not a team that can be easily beaten, we can cause enough trouble for any team in the world."

The Romans left Madrid sadly.

Before they left, Riccardo invited Totti and Cicinho to have a small gathering.When Ricardo played in Serie A, he didn't have much friendship with Totti, but he admired Totti very much and exchanged jerseys.

With his current status in the arena, Totti would definitely give him some face if he extended the invitation, not to mention being flattered.

Ricardo did not take them to a nightclub, but found a restaurant with relatively late opening hours, found a secluded corner, ate some traditional Spanish food, and drank drinks.

Cicinho congratulated Ricardo, wished Real Madrid can enter the final, and expressed regret that they could no longer fight side by side.

"You are very capable." Ricardo also mentioned him with regret, "That injury hit you too hard."

Cicinho showed a gloomy expression. "Yes, injuries are the enemy of athletes. Ronnie is not as good as before. Although he scored two goals in today's game, it was because you created great opportunities for him. In the past, there was no He doesn't need you, he can solve the battle by himself."

"Yes, Ronaldo is the player I admire the most," echoed Totti, "but he is not what he used to be. Time, injuries, the greatest athlete is no match for these two enemies. Lika You have to protect yourself. It is very wise for you to choose to go to La Liga. The defensive strength of La Liga is far inferior to that of Serie A. As long as your luck is not too bad, you can have a longer football career playing in La Liga.”

Ricardo also felt sorry for him.He feels the deepest about Ronaldo's changes.Ronaldo's 0.4-meter speed increased by at least [-] seconds, and his starting speed, explosive power, and confrontation ability were also much worse.

With Ronaldo now, it is absolutely impossible for him to run halfway alone and score goals with 4 or 5 players in a row.

The alien who used to be invincible on the field is no longer there.The rest is just a slightly old lion.The minions are still there, but they are no longer sharp.

The quarter-finals of the Champions League will not start until April, and the rest of March leaves Real Madrid with nothing but league responsibilities.

This is a good time for them to grab points.

On March 3, they played against the Spaniard at home.In the 9th minute, the Spaniard took the lead, and Baldo opened the scoring with a header.

Then Ricardo's cross was pushed into the opponent's goal by Raul, equalizing the score.

The Spaniard played very tenaciously. Although it was an away game, he did not lose at all in terms of momentum. Every goal must be contested.

Until the end of the game, Higuain, who came off the bench, sent a direct pass. Ricardo scored a go-ahead goal for Real Madrid and took all 3 points with difficulty.

After the game, Marca commented that after the exhausting Champions League match, the entire Real Madrid team was out of shape, and only Ricardo maintained the level of a champion player.

In the middle of the week, the draw ceremony for the Champions League quarter-finals and semi-finals was held.Real Madrid will face Manchester United, and if they advance to the next round, they will face the winner of Barcelona and Schalke 04.

This is really not a good draw. There are teams like Schalke 04, Fenerbahce, and Arsenal outside, but the team has drawn one of the strongest opponents.

This season, Manchester United is invincible in the Premier League. The 23-year-old Ronaldo has matured day by day, getting rid of the label of "fancy and flashy" and becoming Manchester United's new thigh.Rooney is still sharp, Carlos Tevez played well, midfielders Scholes, Hargreaves, Carrick are all powerful stars, central defenders Ferdinand and Vidic form the best defense in the Premier League .

This opponent is by no means comparable to a team like Roma, which is strong outside but capable in the middle.

In the 28th round of the league, Real Madrid was a guest at Deportivo, and the offense continued to be weak. Pepe's own goal made Real Madrid lose by one goal.

Real Madrid has not won at the Riazor Stadium for 17 consecutive years. In the last 4 games played at this stadium, Real Madrid lost all.It seems that this record will be extended.Deportivo is simply the nemesis of Real Madrid.

After this round of defeat, Real Madrid's lead was reduced to 4 points, which gave Sevilla and Atletico Madrid the hope of catching up.
