Chapter 1343 Consecutive Hat-Tricks
Real Madrid beat Atletico Madrid 4-0 in an away game and advanced to the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey with a total score of 4-0. This news quickly caused a sensation in Spanish football and sparked heated discussions, especially about Real Madrid's performance in this game.
The ups and downs and downturn since the winter break have made people worry about Real Madrid's performance in the second half, especially the recent two consecutive draws, which has made many media suspicious of Real Madrid.
Before Calderon's game, many media even concluded with certainty that Simeone's team would deal the worst blow to Real Madrid at home, but the result was unexpected. .
Marca commented on the game as soon as possible after the game, and believed that this game can be won, and the first credit for the players should be attributed to Yang Yang, who is stable and efficient, and Isco, who shined in this game.
"Yang Yang's stable performance is not surprising, with a hat-trick and an assist, he completely dominated the massacre of Real Madrid against Atletico Madrid, but Isco's sudden emergence is very surprising. This is almost the moment he joined Real Madrid. For more than two years, he played the best game, especially when he fully demonstrated his characteristics on the court."
The Marca newspaper believes that Isco has always been a very capable player and very distinctive, but after joining Real Madrid, he has never been able to meet the expectations of the outside world, even with the rise of De Bruyne this season. , he was slightly marginalized.
"In this game against Atletico Madrid, people saw another side of Isco, that is his outstanding dribbling."
"In Atletico Madrid's defensive formation, in the Wanma army, Isco's dribbling with the ball, although he will be chased and intercepted, but he can always keep the ball without losing it, which is enough for him to occupy a place in Real Madrid's formation. .”
In addition to the players, Marca also believes that head coach Zidane and assistant coach Yang Yang are also the key to Real Madrid's victory.
"According to the information we got, the reuse of Isco came from Yang Yang's strong suggestion, just like he suggested to Benitez and Ancelotti, this time he strongly suggested the reuse of Isco, and even defeated Real Madrid away. The burden of Atletico Madrid was gambled on Isco, and it paid off in the end."
"Some people may think that winning this kind of adventure is a fluke, somewhat lucky, but carefully observing the past, once or twice is luck, but again and again, can it be considered luck?"
...
Aspen newspaper published Zidane's answer at the post-match press conference.
The Real Madrid coach did not mention Yang Yang, which is a kind of tacit understanding between the two, because Yang Yang's position in the Real Madrid team is very detached, not only the number one star, but also the chief assistant coach of the coaching staff, so from this season At the beginning, Zidane rarely commented on Yang Yang in public.
Zidane publicly stated that Isco's performance in this game is impressive. He has proved his strength and value to the world through a game, and he has shown his most powerful side.
"I really saw the demeanor of the European golden boy back then, and I believe Isco can continue to maintain it."
Regarding the defeat of Atletico Madrid, Zidane said that the team won not be easy.
"They gave us a lot of problems in the two half-spaces, but defensively, we did a good job, Vermaelen and Varane's central defenders defended quite well, both of them are very mobile. Strong, left me a lot of deep impressions in the game."
Compared with Zidane touting his players, Simeone regretfully expressed his apology to the fans, regretted the team's zero-to-four home defeat, and took the initiative to take responsibility, but he did not think that Atletico Madrid players performed abnormally.
"Actually, I know they're trying their best."
"Sometimes, many things that happen on the pitch cannot be stopped by manpower, such as their first goal. I know Oblak has reached his limit, but Yang Yang's direct free kick still scored."
"And Isco, that's what I've seen, he's playing one of the best games, we always have to put two players on him, it's very bad for our defense, even A lot of times, we haven't been able to seal his passing lanes, which makes us very passive."
Simeone believes that this game looks like Real Madrid is dealing with Atletico Madrid with a broken team, but it actually shows Real Madrid's strong bench thickness, which is not available in other strong teams in European football.
"They used substitutes, but Isco, Varane, Vermaelen, Vazquez... which one of these players is not a player that other European teams want? So I don't think they are the so-called Remnants, on the contrary, I think this is the best Real Madrid team at the moment."
Simeone’s meaning is actually the same as Zidane’s, that is, Real Madrid does not have the so-called boundary between the main force and the substitute. Whoever is in good condition can play the main force. The difference is that Simeone does not want to admit that Atletico Madrid can’t play against the disabled team. Real Madrid, while Zidane is unwilling to discourage the enthusiasm of several players in the team.
...
Although Dela Morena, the gold medal host of Radio Searle, is a die-hard Atletico Madrid fan, he gave a very high evaluation of Real Madrid's formation in this game.
"When Simeone first landed in La Liga, when facing head coaches such as Ancelotti and Guardiola, he performed very immature in the first game, and failed to take advantage of tactics, process and results. After several years of experience, he has gradually revealed the sophistication of the world's top coaches on the spot command."
"But unlike many famous coaches, Zidane and Yang Yang coached for the first time. As a result, the two teamed up, but this season they showed a stability that is completely inconsistent with their resumes. Whether it is facing Paris Saint-Germain or Facing Barcelona, this game against Atletico Madrid, they have shown eye-catching tactics in every game."
"Before playing Atletico Madrid, most people were not optimistic about Real Madrid, because their state has been unstable since the winter break, and they had two consecutive draws before, but no one thought that they would activate Is in the game. Ke, this requires great courage and a strong ability to withstand pressure."
"After the game, we will cheer for their formation, but we should also think about how much pressure they will bear if they lose this game?"
"But that's what a manager, especially a Real Madrid manager, should carry."
"From playing Paris Saint-Germain and Barcelona in the first half to playing Atletico Madrid in the winter break, I have every reason to believe that Zidane and Yang Yang are leading Real Madrid to another peak dynasty. Meet the challenges of the second half."
"Perhaps, this season's Real Madrid will once again attack towards the Triple Crown."
...
The winner is the prince, the loser is the bandit.
When Real Madrid beat Atletico Madrid 4-0 and successfully advanced to the semi-finals, all the media around the world were full of praise.
After the quarter-finals, the other three teams entering the semi-finals are Barcelona, Valencia and Sevilla. According to the results of the previous draw, Real Madrid will face Sevilla in the semi-finals, and Barcelona will face Sevilla. Valencia.
