Chapter 1004 It's Disgusting!
Sometimes things in this world are just so bizarre.
When the media and fans all over the world were amazed by Real Madrid and Barcelona's three consecutive century derbies, the Spanish Copa del Rey also came to join in the fun, and it was still a big hit.
The Spanish Football Association announced that the final of the Copa del Rey was scheduled to be held at the Calderon Stadium in Atlético de Madrid.
This is undoubtedly a bit surprising.
This year is the year of major competitions, and the European Cup will usher in June, so the leagues of various countries have compressed their schedules, including the Champions League final.
But Real Madrid and Barcelona actually have to play four consecutive games in just two weeks, and there are two Champions League semi-finals, a La Liga without much suspense, and a Copa del Rey final. This is undoubtedly a very strange schedule.
But fans all over the world are still looking forward to it.
Because they really want to know whether Real Madrid can win on all three fronts.
...
After the quarterfinals of the Champions League, the thirty-second round of La Liga.
Real Madrid began to prepare for the next Champions League semi-finals and Copa del Rey finals. Ancelotti and the coaching staff began to arrange players to rest, which led to the team playing in the league with a half-main half-substitute lineup.
As a result, in this round, Real Madrid suffered a 0-0 draw with Valencia at their home court.
Yang Yang, Ibrahimovic and Robben did not start this game.
Barcelona relied on Messi's brace to reverse Zaragoza 4-1 away.
With this round of scoring twice, Messi scored 42 goals, but he was still behind Yang Yang's 44 goals. The contest between the two superstars still had no winner.
...
In the middle of the week, the thirty-third round of La Liga.
Barcelona played against Getafe at Camp Nou, Sanchez scored twice, Messi and Pedro each scored a goal, Barcelona beat Getafe 4-0 at home, and finally reported their revenge for a 0-1 away loss.
In this game, Real Madrid ushered in the same city derby and challenged Atletico Madrid away.
Yang Yang opened the scoring for Real Madrid in the 24th minute, but in the 55th minute of the second half, Falcao equalized the score for the Sheets, and the two sides returned to the same starting line.
In the 67th minute, Yang Yang scored another victory to overtake the score again, and scored a goal in the 82nd minute, performing a hat-trick. In the 87th minute, Di Maria's goal locked the score at 4-1.
In the end, Real Madrid beat Atletico Madrid 4-1 with Yang Yang's hat-trick.
After this round of the game, the Catalan media was wailing again.
In the last round, they managed to catch up with only two goals, but now Yang Yang staged a hat-trick, Messi only scored one goal, and the gap widened to four goals. How easy is it to catch up with Yang Yang?
...
On the weekend, the thirty-fourth round of La Liga.
Real Madrid played against Sporting Gijon at home, but in the 30th minute of the first half, Pepe fouled in the penalty area, gave Sporting a penalty and made the penalty, 0-1.
Then Yang Yang assisted Robben to score a goal in the 37th minute to equalize the score, and Yang Yang also exceeded the score in the 74th minute of the second half.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored the final goal in the 82nd minute.
In the end, Real Madrid reversed Sporting Gijon 3-1 at home.
In another matchup at the same time, Barcelona also played very hard. They conceded a penalty in the opening 23 minutes, and then Messi scored twice to help Barcelona reverse. In the end, they reversed Levante 2-1 away.
After the end of this round of competition, the four consecutive century derby also officially kicked off.
…………
…………
On the evening of April 18th, the Bernabéu Stadium.
Two hours before the game, the Barcelona team arrived at the Bernabeu early.
As a result, when they changed their training uniforms in the locker room, the whole team walked out of the player tunnel and came to the Bernabéu Stadium where fans had already entered the stadium. They just stepped on the turf of the stadium, and everyone's faces changed immediately.
water!
All Barcelona players stepped on the turf of the Bernabeu for the first time, and the first reaction was water.
How can there be so much water?
Soon, I walked further, only to find that there was a lot of water in the field, and almost every foot was covered with water.
How is this going?
As the top luxury stadium in Europe and even in the world, the Bernabéu's drainage system is very advanced. There is no reason why there will be so much water. Besides, it hasn't rained at all these days, okay?
In other words, the water was sprinkled by Real Madrid.
"MD, what the hell are they doing?"
"With so much water, how do we play the game?"
"No way? Did you come up with such a disgusting out-of-the-box trick?"
"My God, are Real Madrid crazy to win?"
The Barcelona players are already preoccupied and under a lot of pressure, but now they are stimulated by the stagnant water in the Bernabéu stadium, and they immediately become angry.
It's been three years. In the past three years, Barcelona has never defeated Real Madrid, but now Real Madrid still uses such off-court tricks. Isn't this too much?
As we all know, Barcelona's style of play is to pass and control the ball, and they pay attention to the cooperation of passing and cutting. Before wanting to restrain Barcelona, many teams used the method of pouring sand into the stadium, or did not sprinkle water to let the field dry up. In this way, Barcelona's passing is restricted.
Therefore, before every game of Barcelona, they will remind the home team to remember to sprinkle water before the game, but usually this kind of advice is to prevent the opponent from not watering, but now Real Madrid has adopted another extreme, which is to sprinkle more water desperately, resulting in serious water accumulation in the field, which is also very terrible.
As the name suggests, keep the field slippery to a certain extent, which will speed up the ball, but if it is too wet, or if there is serious accumulation of water, it will also affect the success rate of Barcelona's passing and receiving cooperation, especially if the football is soaked in too much water, it will become difficult to control.
Is this a conspiracy?
No, this is a conspiracy!
Real Madrid told Barcelona very clearly, anyway, I can't control the ball to grab you, so the ball will be given to you, and you can control it as you like, but don't make mistakes.
...
"Who the hell did this trick?"
On the sidelines, Vilanova almost cried, such a slippery field is not good for Barcelona.
Guardiola also had a stern expression on his face, and he replied flatly, "Who else, it must be that cunning Italian, he is the only one who would do such a disrespectful thing."
He began to miss the former Benitez a little bit. Although Benitez's tactics were annoying, at least Benitez was a kind and honest person, and he would not make such disgusting off-the-box tricks.
Of course, he also knew that he hated Benitez very much at the beginning.
There are no express regulations on such things as outside the game, and it is even considered by UEFA to be part of the home factor, so when Mourinho poured sand into the stadium, UEFA couldn't control it.
Now, Real Madrid is pouring water into the stadium, and UEFA can't control it even more.
What's more, Guardiola clearly remembers that in the morning he specifically told the Barcelona team leader that when meeting with Real Madrid representatives, the referee team and UEFA representatives, he must let Real Madrid water them.
How did he know that Real Madrid would not only water, but also water so much?
Ma Dan, this is too disgusting!
Guardiola secretly swore in his heart that if Ancelotti appeared in front of him at this time, he would definitely beat the fat Italian to vent his anger.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Real Madrid players walked out of the player tunnel one by one, but Ancelotti followed behind the team, also walked out with a smile on his face, stood at the entrance of the player tunnel, looked around for a while, and walked straight towards Guardiola.
Seeing Ancelotti's smile, Guardiola really wanted to beat him, and he was even worried that he would not be able to bear it, so he kept rubbing the back of his right hand with his left hand, as if reminding himself not to be impulsive, not impulsive.
"Sorry, I just heard from the groundskeeper that the water was already sprinkled once, but after you requested it, they sprinkled it again, causing some water to accumulate on the field, but it doesn't matter, I believe it will disappear soon."
Ancelotti smiled honestly and kindly, but he said something that made Guardiola and Vilanova almost spit fire.
The Barcelona coach and deputy coach looked at each other, and they all used their eyes to remind each other, don't be fooled, this is a psychological warfare!
If it wasn't for psychological warfare, I would fight him!
"It's okay, your drainage system is good, I believe you should be able to deal with it before the game." Guardiola suppressed the anger in his heart, squeezed out a smile, and replied.
In fact, he didn't expect the other party to give any sincere answer at all.
Unexpectedly, Ancelotti on the opposite side really put on a sincere and good-hearted look, nodded and said: "Yes, I have already told them, no matter what, they must deal with this matter for me before the game. We will not give up the ball easily in tonight's game. There is too much water in the field, which is not good for us."
Yeah?
Guardiola's eyes almost spit fire.
Nimi, at your level, grab the ball with us?
You really don't even blink when you lie, and you don't draft drafts when you brag!
It's so disgusting!
Fortunately, just when Guardiola was about to go berserk, Ancelotti also accepted it as soon as he saw it, said a few good things quickly, turned around and left.
Guardiola looked at the back of this fat Italian man in a suit and leather shoes. He vaguely saw Ancelotti's sly smile secretly smiling, and the hatred in his heart made him grit his teeth.
But neither he nor Barcelona can do anything about it.
Every team will make their home court the most suitable environment for them to play. For example, Barcelona will properly sprinkle water before playing any opponent at the Camp Nou to keep the court wet and slippery, because it is beneficial for them to pass and control the ball.
At this time, Barcelona will never consider the interests of their opponents, unless their brains are broken.
Therefore, at this moment, facing Real Madrid, they also have nothing to do.
The only thing I can do is to try my best to play with my own style and strength and beat Real Madrid away. This is the most powerful counterattack against Real Madrid.
Let's see if you can still laugh, Ancelotti!
Guardiola thought through gritted teeth.
