The days of playing football with Da Luo

Chapter 507 Where is the end point
Real Madrid's state has gradually returned to normal, and Pellegrini has also returned to a bit of a famous coach.

He made two substitution adjustments in a row, Marcelo replaced Heinze to strengthen the offense, Van der Vaart replaced Gago, or strengthened the offense.

Liverpool are leading now, but Real Madrid are not without a chance.

The current total score is Liverpool leading 3:2, but Real Madrid already has 1 away goal. If they can score another goal, although the total score is a tie, they will also eliminate their opponents.

Therefore, Benitez was overwhelmed by this situation, thought for a long time, and finally made a conservative decision.He replaced the playmaker Harvey Alonso with the stronger defensive Lucas, and immediately replaced the captain Gerrard with a minor injury with the energetic teenager Spelling.

After the game, the media agreed that this was Benitez's biggest failure and a turning point in the game.

Not long after Gerrard left the field, Marcelo received a pass from Ricardo and tried to take the ball to the baseline. Spelling naturally followed, but Marcelo easily passed him.Marcelo changed his mind, cut inside suddenly and then crossed the ball to Ricciardo.

Ricardo faced the football, but he opened his legs, allowing the ball to slip past.Kaka understood and waited on the route. When the football arrived, he immediately raised his leg and shot.

"Kaka Goal!!! His brace helped Real Madrid back to life!" the commentator shouted excitedly.

This goal is really wonderful. Ricardo's omission is amazing. It was he who suddenly advanced, led Lucas to follow, and made Kaka unguarded; and Kaka's shot was also of excellent quality. picky.

"Real Madrid was like two different teams in the second half! If they could maintain this state, they wouldn't be forced into such a mess by Liverpool!"

Benitez woke up like a dream and began to direct the team to counterattack.But at this time, Real Madrid also retreated across the board. In the last 20 minutes of the game, they were united and made every attack of Liverpool come back without success.

3: 3!With 2 away goals, Real Madrid eliminated Liverpool and advanced to the top 8!
The media praised Kaka greatly, thinking that he will be a strong contender for the Golden Globe Award.

Kaka smiled and said: "If you are talking about these two goals, then you have completely ignored the role played by Ricardo in these two goals. I just put the ball into the net and it's done." The task I should do, Ricardo is in charge of threading the needle, he is the organizer of the attack. If you are talking about the number of goals in the whole season, then well, Ricardo has scored 40 goals in the league. With nine goals in the Champions League, I don't think anyone deserves the Ballon d'Or more than him."

Real Madrid have gone on a point frenzy ahead of their move into the next stage of the Champions League.

From the 27th to the 29th round of the league, they defeated Bilbao, Almeria and Malaga in two away games and one home game in a row. They scored 1 goals and only conceded 11 goal. The state is terrifying.

It is a pity that Barcelona also won all 3 games and continued to maintain a 5-point gap with Real Madrid.

Ronaldo also jumped at the chance, scoring a hat-trick against Athletic Bilbao to re-enter Pellegrini's radar.

But this has no effect on his future.Farah has helped him negotiate personal terms with Manchester United. Although he has not officially signed a contract, he is 99% likely to transfer to the Red Devils Manchester United after the end of the season.

On the evening of April 4th, Real Madrid ushered in their opponents in the quarter-finals of the Champions League, Chelsea, at home.

In the Champions League final last season, Real Madrid solved their opponents cleanly. Chelsea this season will undoubtedly want revenge.

Ronaldo returned to the starting lineup.

In the 6th minute of the opening, after Ricardo dribbled the ball in and cut in, he suddenly distributed the ball to the right, and Ramos who inserted it directly passed the ball to the center of the penalty area.

Chelsea's defenders hadn't gotten into shape yet, and Ronaldo easily ran out of space, throwing both Terry and Alex away, turned and volleyed unguarded, and broke through the goal guarded by Petr Cech.

Real Madrid got off to a fantastic start.

Leading Real Madrid played possession and Pellegrini was content with a 1-0 scoreline.

This season is different from last season. Last season, the team led the league all the way and there was no pressure.

But this season, the team is playing the role of a chaser in the league. They have to devote 100% in every game in order not to fall behind. The consumption of physical energy is obviously higher than that of last season. The core players Ricardo and Kaka are very exhausted.

So Pellegrini asked the team to slow down the pace, so as not to lose the chain due to exhaustion at the end of the game.

Chelsea has been onslaught, Drogba many chances, but did not grasp.

However, in the 79th minute, Real Madrid's physical fitness had problems, and the defense finally showed its flaws.

Ballack sent a wonderful through ball, tearing through Real Madrid's defense, Malouda made a high-speed pass, Drogba outflanked the defender, squeezed the defender away with his body, blasted the goal and equalized the score for Chelsea.

The score of 1:1 was also maintained until the end.

After the game, Pellegrini looked very helpless: "The boys tried their best. We didn't play well because everyone was very tired. I didn't make timely substitutions and adjustments. This is my responsibility. It is not the team's fault. I am very sorry Satisfied with the performance of the boys, really, I will let the players fully rest in the next league game, and strive to win Chelsea in the away game."

On April 4th, in the 11th round of La Liga, Real Madrid played against Valladolid at home.

Pellegrini fulfilled his promise, he let Ricardo, Kaka and others sit on the bench.

At this point, a choice must be made.Should I choose the league or the Champions League?

Pellegrini chose the Champions League.

Any ambitious coach would make that choice.

But the result is good.

In the final stage of the first half, Raúl received a cross from Higuain and gave Real Madrid the lead.

In the 82nd minute, Guti sent a precise long pass in a quick counterattack, and Robben relied on his speed to get rid of Bea and get a single chance.He didn't waste an opportunity and calmly slid the ball into the bottom right corner of the goal to seal the victory for Real Madrid.

Real Madrid did not fall behind, and Barcelona did not lose the chain. They defeated Huelva 2-0 at home and continued to lead the standings with a 5-point advantage.

With only the last 8 rounds left in the league, the chances of Real Madrid's counterattack are actually very small.

Barcelona is in great shape this season. The midfield triangle of Harvey, Busquez and Iniesta is rock-solid, and Messi, Eto'o and Pedro are invincible in the frontcourt.Especially Messi, who has been touted as the new core, has performed as outstandingly as Ricardo two seasons ago.

But this season's Ricardo is different.In the 29 league games he has participated in, he has scored 43 goals.

In the next 8 rounds of the league, every time he scores a goal, he is creating a new history.

People are guessing, where will his end point be?
