[football] walk side by side

At the beginning of the second half of the season, the odds placed by major European football companies have undergone considerable changes.Whether it is the La Liga champion or the Champions League champion, Real Madrid has completely replaced Barcelona and has become the number one odds.Especially in the Champions League, Barcelona fell directly from the first place to the fourth place, and the second and third places were Bayern Munich and Chelsea.

The reason for such earth-shaking changes, in the final analysis, is that Barcelona in the Spanish national derby lost so badly that even those who have confidence in Barcelona can no longer go against their will after watching that game. Say that Barcelona may still win the league or the Champions League.

In the first round of the league after the winter break, which is the No.19 round of La Liga, Real Madrid sits at the Bernabéu to face Getafe.Real Madrid at home once again played a beautiful 5:0, Di Maria, Benzema, Cristiano all scored goals, Cyril scored a long shot from outside the penalty area, and Ramos was about to end the game In the last 1 minute, he scored a header in the melee in the penalty area.

This undisputed game made many fans who were worried about Real Madrid's poor state in the second half of the season couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.Anyone with a discerning eye can see that after Real Madrid scored the first three goals, it was obvious that they wanted to keep their hands. The relationship between Getafe and Real Madrid has always been good, and there is no need to be arrogant and kill them all.

...Although, this 5:0 seems to be no different from not keeping a hand.

At the end of the game, when the players and fans of both sides left the field one after another, Mourinho, who was standing on the sidelines, also heaved a sigh of relief, with a relaxed smile on his lips.

At this point, Mourinho no longer doubts whether Real Madrid can win the league title this season—unlike the Champions League title, the former still needs a certain amount of luck, but the league is the most representative of a team. A stable championship, with Real Madrid's current strength, it should be no problem to win the league championship this season without any accidents.

Because of this, at this stage, for the first game of the second half of the season, Mourinho's request is very simple: win the game easily, and don't have any players injured.

In Mourinho's view, as long as the players are not injured and the main lineup is missing, with Real Madrid's current rotation system, there must be no problem in finishing the league.

On the second day after the game, the major La Liga media also talked about the game in their respective newspapers.

"It can be seen that after a winter break, the state of the Real Madrid players has not only declined, on the contrary, their physical and mental strength have been well rested, which made them very good in the game against Getafe. Much smoother."

"After the short stumbles at the beginning of the season, the cooperation of the Real Madrid players has become more and more tacit. This is reflected in every big score they have played now, and it is also reflected in the entire offensive process. Murray Neo's rotation system also saves the players' physical energy very well, as long as it can be maintained like this, this season may become the best time for the Galacticos to re-emerge."

It has to be said that the media is always a creature that adapts to the wind.So far, except for the Catalan media who still stubbornly insist on leaving the field, there are very few media who deliberately come to find fault with Real Madrid-God knows, they have suffered enough slaps in the face last season up.

In other words, after the first half of the season, when they were often slapped in the face, the media who have always been on the side of Real Madrid's opponents began to change their strategies: Since bad-mouthing will be slapped in the face, then I will blow it hard and give you Let's go to the sky, right?The best players are so proud and complacent, and after losing another game, maybe their mentality will collapse.

With such a malicious idea, the European football media began to praise Real Madrid in unison:

"There is no doubt that Real Madrid is the team most likely to win the Champions League and the league championship this season. Their team lineup is reasonable and strong. Afterwards, Mourinho also re-tuned and trained a strong offensive team. They are the only team in European football that still has a complete victory, and they are also the most valuable team. Watching Real Madrid's game is A treat."

"The era belonging to Barcelona is completely over, and the next European football belongs to the Galacticos. I dare say that this is the most powerful Real Madrid in recent years. For them, the long-awaited league and Champions League champions will be It’s no longer out of reach, their strength is already good enough, and what’s left now is just a matter of luck.”

In the face of the constant praise from the media, Mourinho did not show any modesty when he was interviewed. He said frankly: "Yes, I think every one of my players is in very good condition. He once said that a player can work with me in three ways: don't do what I want him to do, I ask him to do something, or do it when I don't ask for it. Now, every player in Real Madrid In the third stage, they can proactively fulfill every request I ask, and when necessary, they can even do some things that I didn't ask for."

"It is a pleasant thing to work with such a Real Madrid. Because my players are very smart, they can understand and implement my tactics as quickly as possible on the field, which makes me invisible when implementing my tactics. Saved a lot of hassle."

"The favorite to win the championship?" When asked such a question, Mourinho raised his eyebrows and said indifferently: "Do you mean the King's Cup, the League, or the European Champions Cup?" Without waiting for the media to answer, He said quickly again: "No, we are not the favorites to win the championship."

The reporters froze for a moment, and looked at the calm Mourinho in astonishment. Wait, is this still the Mourinho they are familiar with?What about arrogance?How can you pretend to be modest at a time like this?

Just when they are mentally prepared, Mourinho may say that other teams are also very good, and we need to face our opponents with caution, just listen to Mourinho say:

"We don't need any favourites, we will be the champions of the Copa del Rey, league and Champions League this season!"

Public media: "..."

Perhaps it is because of the proficiency accumulated in the interviews with Mourinho in the past, and now facing Mourinho's earth-shattering words, the reporters are not shocked at all. Rio's feeling.

Therefore, after listening to Mourinho's series of declarations that could not be more arrogant, the reporters looked surprised, but this did not affect their excitement!

Mourinho's meaning is very simple, Real Madrid will win the Triple Crown this season!

But it is a very difficult thing to actually implement this matter.There are very few teams that have achieved the Triple Crown in history. As of 2012, there are only Celtics in 1967, Ajax in 1972, Eindhoven in 1988, Manchester United in 1999, and Manchester United in 2004. Porto in 2009, Inter Milan in 2010, and Chelsea in 2011 have achieved this achievement.

In other words, as of now, Real Madrid has never won the Triple Crown.

With Real Madrid's current strength and state, it is not impossible to win the Triple Crown.What excites the reporter is not what Mourinho said about Real Madrid's goal this season, but what Mourinho said frankly that we want to win the Triple Crown.

The reason why the Triple Crown is difficult is not only because the three champions are relatively gold-rich champions.If you want to win the Triple Crown, strength is one aspect, luck is one aspect, and the team lineup and bench thickness are also a part that cannot be ignored.

Needless to say, the Champions League, the further you go, the most powerful teams from the top leagues are often facing each other.The league is also the game that best proves the strength of a team's dominance in its own league.Even the Copa del Rey, which has the lowest gold content among the three, is not so easy to get.

No matter how good Real Madrid is doing now, there will be so many people secretly trying to pull them down,

Among other things, even if it is the Copa del Rey, once a La Liga team that hates Real Madrid wants to attack Real Madrid, and Real Madrid is in the gap between the league and the Champions League at that time, how to deal with the Copa del Rey will be a big problem. problem.

If all the main players are sent, what about the league and the Champions League?But if only a substitute or half-substitute and half-main lineup is sent, when the opponent is determined to attack Real Madrid with a desperate attitude, it will not be easy for Real Madrid to ensure that the Copa del Rey will not be eliminated at this time.

Although Mourinho's move can greatly increase the morale of the players.But on the other hand, this is no less than sending the target in front of the opponent and allowing him to attack.If the situation is a little worse, then let alone the Triple Crown, it is impossible to win any of the three championships!

As soon as this extremely hateful sentence was uttered, the media who had originally made up their minds to praise and kill Real Madrid couldn't help it, and immediately threw the purpose of "carefully promoting and killing to prevent being slapped in the face" to the Java State. Continue to walk on the road of killing Mourinho and his Real Madrid.

Among them, the "Daily Sports Daily" even directly typed on the headline: "We will make you empty of all four!":

"It is undeniable that Real Madrid's current strength and performance are indeed worthy of their No. [-] ranking in odds, and they can also be called the favorites to win the championship. However, Mourinho is too proud to win the Triple Crown. Right? What does he think the Triple Crown is? Can you just copy the trophy at your fingertips?"

"Many people said that Mourinho's words are too proud, but what I want to say is, let him be so proud, Barcelona will prevent him from winning a championship!"
