Chapter 836 The Devil's Schedule (First Update, Please Subscribe!)
On April 14, Real Madrid challenged Tottenham Hotspur away for the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals.
In this game, Tottenham performed better at home. They also created many offensive opportunities, but they still failed to gain anything in 90 minutes.
However, they have already received several yellow cards in this game, threatening Real Madrid's goal.
However, in the 31st and 71st minutes, Suker and Kaka scored goals respectively. In the end, Real Madrid defeated Tottenham Hotspur 5:0 in two rounds and successfully advanced to the Champions League semi-finals.
"This is the end of the game. Although Tottenham played a good game, they failed to score against Real Madrid. As Mourinho said, he once again created the best team in the world. Defense line!”
In this game, Tottenham failed to threaten Real Madrid at multiple points.
Srna, Khedira and Ramos worked together to suppress Bell again.
At the end of the game, the Real Madrid players were also very happy.
After all, they successfully advanced to the Champions League semi-finals.
However, the next game will become more difficult.
“Everyone played well”
Florentino appeared in the Real Madrid dressing room, which surprised the players.
After all, this is considered a divine dragon. Except for Suker and Casillas, ordinary players will not see him once a season.
They would understand if Florentino appeared in the Champions League final.
Unexpectedly, he actually came over to watch the game.
Of course, this is not because Florentino is idle. It's just that after Mourinho submitted a transfer application for Bell, Florentino also developed a strong interest in Bell, and then came to North London. , intending to negotiate the transfer with Tottenham.
When the leader speaks, he naturally pretends to listen. Real Madrid players know these things very well.
In his speech, Florentino also focused on praising Suker and other outstanding players, and presented some rewards to reward the players.
In the evening, Real Madrid players took a plane back to Spain, but Florentino stayed.
The next day, as soon as Su Ke crawled out of bed, Zolanqi walked in furiously.
"Something big happened!"
Zolanci looked nervous.
He looked at the sleepy Suker and frowned; "Real Madrid is contacting Bale!"
Suk tilted his head.
Zolanci continued; "They are contacting Bell. They are creating opponents for you!"
Suk blinked: "So?"
Zolanci said seriously: "Hey! Don't you understand? Bell's talent is capable of threatening you!"
Suk nodded, yawned, pointed to the sofa and said, "Sit down first, do you want some coffee?"
"Can you still drink it?" Zolanqi was dissatisfied: "I want ice!"
Suk rolled his eyes, brewed an iced coffee and handed it over.
Zolanqi cheered directly.
"Okay, can we talk now?" Zolanqi said seriously; "What exactly do you think?"
Su Ke: "Who do you think has better talent, Bale or Kaká?"
"Kaka!" Zolanqi said without even thinking.
Suk shrugged: "I can suppress Kaka, but not Bell?"
"But Bale is young! He is only 21 years old now!"
Zolanci emphasized; "How long do you think you can last at your peak?"
Suk smiled; "Don't worry, my peak period will be long!"
I worked hard to accumulate attribute points just to prolong my peak period.
He will not lose to others in continuing his peak period.
Phew~~~
Suk breathed out, stretched and said, "I know what you are worried about. It's just that Bell is very talented, and I'm afraid that he will threaten my position. But if you think about it differently, if you don't have talent, why should you be my helper? "
"In the process of climbing up, I can't be alone. I also need some help. Kaka is like this, Benzema is like this, and others are like this."
"I can't abandon someone just because they are too talented, fearing that they will threaten my position! In this way, I will only become a loner."
"I want to climb higher, which not only requires my own performance, but also the help of the entire team. I am confident in suppressing Bell, and I am also confident that he can be a help to me."
“Sometimes, if you want to get results, you have to take some risks.”
Su Ke smiled: "The bigger the wind and waves, the more expensive the fish!"
"But..." Zolanqi wanted to continue talking.
Su Ke waved his hand: "Don't worry, I won't do anything I'm not sure about."
At this point, Su Ke changed the subject and said, "You can talk about this kind of thing on the phone without having to come to Madrid in person, right?"
Hearing this, Zolanqi sighed. He glanced at Su Ke and said, "Actually, I want to discuss something with you."
"whats the matter?"
Zoranci: "Some time ago, didn't I say that Dinamo Zaragb signed two new young players?"
Suker nodded: "Brozovic and Kovacic?"
Zuolanqi asked in surprise: "Do you know them?"
Su Ke said casually; "I have watched their game!"
Hearing this, Zolanci came over excitedly and said: "Brozovic, I plan to introduce him to Serie A and let him play in Serie A."
"But Kovacic is more talented, and I don't want to waste this talent, so I wonder if there is a chance for him to join Real Madrid!"
After hearing this, Suk was surprised; "Ah?"
Zoranqi grinned: "I know it's a bit whimsical, but it's not impossible. As long as you help, he can still get one or two games."
Suk's eyes turned and suddenly said: "How old is he?"
"Seventeen years old this year!"
Suk held his forehead; "You want to hype his value, right?"
This is just like ordinary people joining a company, you need a good resume.
Zoranqi plans to get Kovacic out of Dinamo Zagreb and let him experience Real Madrid for a while. Even if he can't play a few games, at least he has the label of "Real Madrid product", which can help him quickly gain a foothold in other teams.
Of course, this is only a concept. In actual operation, it is difficult to achieve the desired effect.
The most important thing is that Zoranqi is not a player, and he doesn't understand how much demand there is for the game at the age of 17.
Since he came into contact with commercialization, his head was full of all kinds of hype and operations, but he forgot the basics.
"I can help, but I want to say, don't do this, you will ruin him!" Suk added; "At the age of 17, he is still growing up. He doesn't need a good resume. Playing one more game is better than this."
"If I were at this age, a substitute for Real Madrid and a main player for an ordinary team in the top five leagues, I would choose the latter without hesitation."
Suk said; "Besides me, does anyone know about this?"
"No!" Zoranqi said with some regret.
Suk; "Then hold it in your stomach and don't say it out. This will make you a laughing stock in the entire football world. Find time to get in touch with more professional football knowledge. I know that commercialization is very popular now. According to your operation, you can bring a lot of attention to Kovacic in a short time, but it will also accelerate his fall."
"Without sufficient strength, he can't handle all this attention!"
"That's fine." Zoranqi sighed.
Suk asked, "Why did you suddenly come up with this idea?"
In response, Zoranqi grinned and said, "Do you know Neymar?"
"The Brazilian genius?"
Zoranqi nodded; "He is 19 years old this year, but he has been in hot competition with many European giants. Many people say that he will be able to join the top European giants in the next two days, and he has already won the position of the main force!"
Suk grinned; "So, you are greedy for this wave of traffic, and want Kovacic to eat this traffic before Neymar?"
"That's right!" Zoranqi nodded.
Suk sighed.
This guy takes it for granted.
This operation is too idealistic.
First of all, Kovacic's performance itself is not enough to compare with Neymar. Even if he joins Real Madrid, public opinion may not necessarily praise him, and may even develop in the direction of "backdoor", "forced", and "parallel genius".
At that time, at the age of 17, he can't stand such slander and ridicule at all, and may directly ruin his career.
Secondly, even if everything went smoothly and he joined Real Madrid, the outside world praised him a lot, but first, he couldn't play in Real Madrid. Second, his talent was not enough to make him grow so quickly.
If you want to help the seedlings grow, you have to choose the right seedlings.
If you pick a seedling at random, it may be directly ruined.
Suker still has great expectations for Kovacic.
After all, by the 2018 World Cup, by then, the Croatian national team must have completed a new round of reorganization.
This is a very realistic problem.
Most people such as Srna, Vukojevic, and Planic will find it difficult to persist until the 2018 World Cup.
Suker's current goal is to win the World Cup.
But his ambition is not just one World Cup.
For this reason, if he can accelerate their growth, Suker will be willing to help for himself.
But these little guys cannot be ruined for this reason.
Creak!
The door opened and Srna and Kaka walked in.
Suker looked up at the watch.
It's half past six, these two guys are really active in eating for free!
Suk waved to Zoranj, indicating that they would discuss these things in detail later, and then walked into the kitchen to make breakfast.
"Why are you here?"
Srna sat opposite Zoranj and asked.
Zoranj made up a random excuse to deal with it.
Srna nodded, without further investigation.
"The devil's schedule is coming!"
Srna suddenly sighed.
Kaka on the side also sighed: "Playing three games with Barcelona in two weeks, is this really possible!"
Barcelona is always very difficult, not to mention playing three games in two weeks.
April 24, the 33rd round of the La Liga, Real Madrid will play against Barcelona at home.
April 28, the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals, Barcelona will play against Real Madrid at home.
May 4, the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals, Real Madrid will play against Barcelona at home.
This schedule is simply terrible!
Just thinking about the schedule, I feel like vomiting.
The current top four teams in the Champions League.
The La Liga civil war in the upper half.
Real Madrid VS Barcelona.
The lower half is Manchester United vs Schalke 04.
But compared to the lower half, the match between Real Madrid and Barcelona is the highlight.
A direct conversation between two super clubs.
If you include these two Champions League games, Real Madrid and Barcelona have played a total of six games this season, not including the Copa del Rey final.
But for fans, this schedule is simply exciting.
After all, every meeting between Real Madrid and Barcelona is a crucial battle, not to mention the consecutive games, which are simply exciting.
Everyone complained while eating breakfast.
After eating, they took a bus to the training base. After entering the locker room, they saw the players talking about this matter.
"Playing three games against Barcelona in two weeks? This is a rhythm that will make you vomit!"
"I'm already starting to feel sick!"
“This is going to be our toughest two weeks!”
"Can't you apply to the Football Association? Change the schedule. I think Barcelona doesn't want to play three games in a row with us, right?"
"How to change? It's not the middle of the season. The schedule has basically been determined. If it is changed now, it will be unfair to other teams."
While everyone was talking, Mourinho led the coaching staff into the locker room.
Everyone was silent.
Mourinho looked around and said loudly: "I know how difficult the next schedule is. This may be the biggest obstacle we face this season, but the road to the championship is always accompanied by various hardships and thorns. Only the victors can move on.”
"We will not fail here, so winning each game solidly and winning the final victory is more important than anything else!"
"Everyone change clothes and get ready for training!"
Mourinho named these two weeks 'marathon week', which means that these two weeks of competition are like a marathon and will be a difficult and fierce battle.
The schedule is set and there is no possibility of change.
Whoever shows cowardice first will lose.
Therefore, we must ensure our state and fighting spirit, and we must also have the confidence to win.
The beginning is very important. Fortunately, the game on April 24 is at home, and Real Madrid has a certain home field advantage.
But even so, they need to take it seriously.
Barcelona is also preparing intensively.
Faced with such a broken schedule, they were full of complaints.
Real Madrid feels sick when they play Barcelona continuously.
This is even more true for Barcelona, who have already lost five direct meetings.
Although there are three opportunities for revenge, the problem is that the pressure is too much.
Losing the direct dialogue on April 24 means that they will completely lose the possibility of competing for the La Liga championship.
At the time, they could only watch helplessly as Real Madrid raced all the way to the La Liga championship.
There are also two Champions League games, which are also important games leading directly to the Champions League finals.
It can be said that in these three games, Real Madrid and Barcelona will be ready to fight hard.
Two super clubs fight to the death!
The happiest people are undoubtedly Manchester United and Ferguson.
They are very satisfied with this schedule.
Although Schalke 04 is considered a dark horse in the Champions League and performed very well, it is very difficult to defeat them and advance to the final.
For Manchester United, they just need to kill Schalke 04.
Then on the final stage, just wait for the devastated Real Madrid or Barcelona!
The European media is also planning this grouping and competition.
Three consecutive direct conversations in two weeks, for these melon-eating fans, it is so exciting.
Everyone has been waiting for this day since the schedule was announced.
Germany's "Kicker": "La Liga infighting! Will Ferguson have the last laugh?"
Italy's "L'Equipe": "This is a continuous tug-of-war. Two super clubs play three games in two weeks. This is not only a physical test, but also a mental test."
Spain's "Marca": "The worst grouping. This will not only cause infighting in La Liga, but will also greatly damage the vitality of the promoted teams!"
Spain's "Catalunya": "Whether it is Real Madrid or Barcelona, we can foresee that they will not be able to enter the Champions League finals with full strength and full strength!"
The game hasn't started yet, but the buzz has already begun.
After reaching the semi-finals of the Champions League, the trend has become heated.
What's more, it's a direct dialogue between Barcelona and Real Madrid. This confrontation lasts for three games, which is so exciting.
On April 23, the entire Barcelona team arrived in Madrid.
Although it is a league match, they still came here early to prepare to face Real Madrid.
For Barcelona, the pressure is even greater.
After all, losing this game is equivalent to losing the league championship, so the game must be won.
At the same time, they also want to take revenge on themselves.
Although they understand that beating Real Madrid at the Bernabeu will be very difficult, they still have to try.
The arrival of Barcelona also brought a large number of Barcelona fans into Madrid.
They have a fierce battle with Real Madrid fans in this city.
Just like the Spanish El Clasico in the first half of the season, conflicts between the fans of the two teams continued.
For this reason, in this short period of time, teams of riot police appeared on the streets of Madrid, and they were on alert at all times.
Once a fan makes trouble, no matter who the other party is, they will be pulled directly into the police station to eradicate the conflict.
But even so, conflicts still continue to occur.
This means that this is not a conflict organized by a certain fan or team, but a hatred and confrontational mentality from the heart of the fans.
The chaotic day is over.
The weekend is here, but it was supposed to be a pleasant weekend, but now it is full of gunpowder.
Especially around the Bernabeu Stadium, Real Madrid fans relied on their large numbers to constantly provoke Barcelona fans.
The latter was not to be outdone, and the two sides cursed at each other from a distance, which was very lively.
Riot police and isolation nets have been arranged.
But across these police and isolation fences, fans from both sides are still throwing debris in their hands.
Looking from a distance, you can see all kinds of debris flying in the air.
Paper shells, hamburgers, water cups, ice cubes, rag dolls
Some people even threw their own dogs over and let the dogs bite those opponents.
The scene was chaotic and the atmosphere was extremely hot!
