1140 Who Is the Next Opponent?

The 27th round of La Liga started with an upset.

At the Soriano Stadium, Barcelona lost 0-1 away to the quasi-relegation team Valladolid after taking advantage of the scene, which caused a shock to the entire Spanish football world.

Just the day before the game, at the press conference in the Gamper Sports City, Barcelona coach Martino had just made a sonorous promise, "In order to take our destiny into our own hands, we must win the next one. Every league game down!"

But who would have thought that a day later, Barcelona lost a league game at the home court of the quasi-relegation team Valladolid.

Although after the game, Martino repeatedly emphasized that there was nothing wrong with the attitude of the players, but almost everyone pointed their fingers at this group of Barcelona stars whose attitudes were already lax.

"Barcelona played a shameless game without football, without stars!" This is the headline of Spain's largest newspaper El País.

This media, which has always been relatively neutral, believes that Barcelona's loss to the quasi-relegation team is a great shame.

Especially in this negative way right now.

Even the daily sports newspaper close to Barcelona satirized after the game: "Barcelona is trying to push the championship to Real Madrid!"

Barcelona's mouthpiece described Barcelona's performance as "destroyed", thinking that they did not show even the slightest bit of determination and fighting spirit to win.

Just after the game, after the team returned to Barcelona, ​​Barcelona held an impromptu high-level meeting.

Chairman Bartomeu, vice-chairman Mestre who is in charge of sports, head coach Martino and technical director Subisareta sat down together to study various plans for this summer.

According to the daily sports newspaper, although Martino's contract with the team will not expire until 2015, Martino clearly informed the Barcelona management at the meeting that he will leave after the end of this season.

As for Barcelona, ​​Martino gave a well-intentioned suggestion that at least six players must be introduced.

Goalkeeper, centre-back, midfielder and centre-forward.

In other words, Barcelona's entire central axis needs signings.

Daily Sports Daily revealed that Barcelona is eyeing German goalkeeper Ter Stegen in the goalkeeper position. For central defenders, Barcelona is eyeing Paris Saint-Germain's Thiago Silva, and Porto's Mangala is also Barcelona's. One of the target candidates, but neither player is easy to bring in. "

Needless to say, Thiago Silva, Paris has already said harsh words before, if Barcelona dare to seduce Thiago Silva, then they will dig Messi at all costs.

As for Mangala, the central defender performed well in the Portuguese Super League, but last summer, Porto had already marked him with a sky-high price of 50 million euros, scaring away many potential buyers. After one season, Porto's The asking price will only get higher than that.

The midfielder and center forward still haven't found suitable candidates.

"Martino suggested to introduce a player with strong running ability and impact, as well as excellent passing ability. Vidal, who plays for Bayern Munich, is a good candidate. Coutinho of Leeds United is also in the Premier League. Within the scope of Barcelona's consideration."

As for the center forward, there isn't even a specific target yet.

But as we all know, Barcelona has no money at all, so in order to draw lots, Barcelona must clean up the existing players.

Sanchez can be sold for a good price, and players such as Alexander Song, Cuenca, and Afeilai will be washed out of the team.

"Bartomeu promised this reporter that this will be a hopeful change!"

...

Gao Shen couldn't empathize with Barcelona's misfortune.

Because in the ensuing league, Real Madrid beat Levante 4-0 at home and won a clean victory.

Simeone's Atletico Madrid defeated Celta Vigo 2-0 away.

Interestingly, former Barcelona player Villa scored twice.

This caused many Catalan media to reflect, after all, they sent Villa away at the price of cabbage.

Simeone overtook Barcelona with a smile and became the current No. 2 in La Liga.

As for the league championship, Simeone said that the gap is a bit behind.

The implication is that the championship belongs to Real Madrid.

Gao Shen is not very interested in Barcelona's metabolic plan, because he knows that the people Barcelona wants to buy now are not realistic, and in the end they have to make do with it.

For example, the central defender, Thiago Silva did not dare to dig, and if he digs again, I am afraid that Paris will be in a hurry.

It really angered the Qataris, and Neymar's termination fee may happen ahead of schedule.

As for Mangala, if you don't have 50 million euros, you won't be able to take it away.

Speaking of which, Gao Shen was also to blame.

Coulibaly's transfer to Chelsea cost the Blues 45 million euros, which is a bit high in itself.

Porto saw that a young boy like Coulibaly could sell at this price, so he called out Mangala for at least 50 million euros.

As a result, no one cares.

Coulibaly is at least trained in the Premier League, what about Mangala?

Porto said that our Mangala has at least played in the Champions League. What has Coulibaly played? And that Marchinhos, why sell for 40 million euros?

The two boys from Leeds United can sell at this price, and our Mangala must be higher.

Up to now, Porto's asking price is 60 million euros, and there is no discount.

In Gao Shen’s previous life, when Mangala transferred from Porto to Manchester City, he announced that the transfer fee was 40 million euros, but it has been reported that his real transfer fee was actually more than 55 million euros. There are third-party ownership companies that own shares in Mangala.

Now it seems that it must be higher.

However, for Gao Shen, he didn't take it too seriously.

Just imagine, Mangala costs 60 million euros, so what about De Vrij?

In Gao Shen's previous life, De Vrij's contract with Feyenoord had only one year left, so after his success in the World Cup, he was sold to Lazio at a low price, but not anymore.

After a season of outstanding performance in the Premier League, if he shines in the World Cup again, Mangala can ask for 60 million euros, how much will De Vrij sell?

Therefore, Gao Shen still hopes that Porto will shout higher. It is best to stir up the value of the central defender in the transfer market. That will be a good thing for Leeds United.

...

A week later, in the 28th round of La Liga, Real Madrid challenged Malaga away.

After the opening, Real Madrid's crazy attack brought huge troubles to Malaga.

Especially Gao Shen put up the trident of Ronaldo, Benzema and Di Maria in the frontcourt tonight, with Insko sitting behind him, and Toni Kroos and Modric formed a double midfielder.

This crazy offensive formation created a steady stream of offensive firepower for Real Madrid's frontcourt.

In the 22nd minute, Di Maria dribbled the ball from the right and passed the ball inward. Ronaldo stopped the ball on the left rib and threw off the defender, then cut inward and shot, breaking Malaga's goal.

After changing sides in the second half and fighting again, in the 50th minute, it was Di Maria's wonderful performance. After passing three opponents, he sent a wonderful pass.

In the 73rd minute, Di Maria assisted again. Ronaldo scored twice with a close-range shot, and the Argentine scored a hat-trick of assists.

In the end, Real Madrid beat Malaga 3-0 away.

Atletico Madrid relied on Diego Costa's goal to beat the Espanyol 1-0 at home.

Barcelona relied on Messi's hat-trick at home to beat Osasuna 7-0.

...

Three days later, in the second round of the knockout round of the Champions League round of 16, Real Madrid played against Galatasaray at home.

Since the team's overall situation has been determined, Gao Shen did not try his best in this game, but played with rotation and substitute lineup.

Galatasaray obviously also wants to take advantage of Real Madrid's winning mentality to reverse the situation in the away game and strive for a wave of upsets.

In fact, everyone knows that with a 0-7 defeat at home, the possibility of a comeback at the Bernabeu is extremely low, and the Turkish team just wants to ask for a decent face.

In the end, the two sides fought hard for 90 minutes.

Real Madrid advanced a goal and Morata opened the scoring for the team, but Galatasaray quickly equalized the score with Brut.

This ball is an assist from Drogba.

After that, Jesse made a pass and shot, and Pogba scored a goal. In the end, Real Madrid defeated Galatasaray 4-1.

The total score was eleven to one, and Real Madrid entered the quarter-finals with an amazing advantage.

...

Some are happy and some are sad.

Here Real Madrid successfully broke through with an astonishingly large score and advanced to the quarter-finals, while many teams over there were eliminated and cried.

For example, Manchester United, which is in the same group as Real Madrid in the group stage.

Today's Red Devils are showing strength in the Premier League, and the Champions League is also suffering.

Since they only got the second place in the group, Manchester United drew the group's first Serie A Naples in the draw.

As a result, the team coached by Sarri was at Old Trafford in the first leg, drawing Manchester United 2-2 and giving Moyes two loud slaps.

After returning to the home court, Sarri's team defeated Manchester United 3-1 again, sending the Red Devils home with a total score of 5-3.

At the same time, teams such as AC Milan and Arsenal also fell in the knockout round of the sixteenth round.

What made Moyes even more embarrassing was that at the moment when Manchester United was eliminated, the British Daily Mirror suddenly broke the news.

Although it is only March and the World Cup has not yet settled, the famous Dutch coach Hiddink has already formed a team of assistants in advance because he will take over the Dutch national team after the World Cup.

It didn't seem to have anything to do with Manchester United either, but soon it did.

Now the head coach of the Dutch national team is Van Gaal, how can Hiddink take over?

Van Gaal is leaving.

Where will Van Gaal go after leaving the team?

When the Daily Mirror posed the question to Van Gaal, the Dutchman was cornered and had to admit that he would be managing a top Premier League team after the World Cup.

"I haven't experienced the atmosphere of English football. I want to win the league in a fourth country."

Isn't this the obvious thing?

The Daily Mirror concluded that the management of Manchester United had already started the coaching change process and reached a consensus with Van Gaal early on. That's why Van Gaal had a showdown with the Dutch Football Association and wanted to leave the team after the World Cup. That's why the Dutch Football Association delineated Guus Hiddink early. .

But Moyes doesn't seem to know all this.

In any case, almost the whole world has concluded that Moyes is definitely out of get out of class!

Gao Shen was not surprised by this, because Moyes' grades were not good, and it was inevitable that he would be dismissed from get out of class.

Instead, he is more concerned about Real Madrid's draw in the quarterfinals.

Who is the next opponent?
