On the evening of April 20th, at the Bernabéu Stadium in Madrid.
In the thirty-fourth round of La Liga, Real Madrid played against Villarreal at home.
A week of double matches, followed by the Champions League semi-finals, Zidane made preparations in advance, and the team rotated.
Yang Yang did not appear in the starting lineup for this game, but sat on the bench, but he frequently walked to the sidelines to discuss and study tactics with Zidane.
In this battle, Real Madrid has the advantage in ball possession, but Villarreal is not a fuel-efficient lamp. In addition, Real Madrid's rotation did not do their best. The two sides fought hard for more than 40 minutes before Real Madrid was led by Eden Hazard. After passing from the left side of the penalty area, Suarez scored with a header in front of the goal, opening the scoring for Real Madrid.
In the second half, after changing sides and fighting again, Vazquez and Suarez broke into the penalty area and scored a low shot from the right side after a two-to-one cooperation, expanding the score for Real Madrid, 2-0.
In the 76th minute, Suarez sent a direct pass, Danilo quickly made a cross from the right, and Modric made a shovel shot from the back row, 3-0.
In the end, Real Madrid beat Villarreal with three goals.
...
Real Madrid have zero opponents in three consecutive games, without conceding a goal, and scored 15 goals, which can be described as triumphant progress.
Everyone can see that after entering March, Real Madrid's state is getting better and better. No matter how the team rotates, with a strong bench thickness, Real Madrid can always beat their opponents.
Many media reporters and fans who criticized and accused Real Madrid during the winter break have now come to their senses and begun to understand how beneficial Yang Yang and Zidane's persistence was to Real Madrid in the second half of the game .
At least after entering March and April, Real Madrid's condition is getting better and better, and the physical fitness of the players is also very abundant, but other teams are getting worse.
After Barcelona was knocked out of the Champions League by Atletico Madrid, the only thing they can compete for so far this season is the Copa del Rey final, but the fiasco in La Liga and the Champions League has hit Barcelona so hard that after losing to Atletico Madrid, Returning to the league, there was a 1-2 loss to Valencia at the Nou Camp.
And this round, Barcelona came back to life, beating Deportivo 8-0 in the away game, Cristiano Ronaldo staged a big four, Messi made two passes and one shot, Neymar also scored a goal, Trident can be described as a brave play.
But it's useless, neither the media nor the fans buy it.
The reason is simple, everyone began to question the ability of this Barcelona team to fight tough battles.
Why didn't this Barcelona team perform like it does now when they played Atletico Madrid, Valencia, or even Real Madrid?
Why is the trident's ability to fight tough battles in the frontcourt so poor?
This is definitely not a question of player strength!

On the afternoon of April 23rd, at the Bernabéu Stadium in Madrid.
In the thirty-fifth round of La Liga, Real Madrid played against Eibar.
Only five minutes into the game, Real Madrid quickly counterattacked after stealing the ball. The frontcourt quickly formed a three-on-two.
Yang Yang personally took a direct free kick and scored the first goal for Real Madrid, 1-0.
In the 18th minute, Yang Yang quickly dribbled the ball into the left side of the penalty area and then knocked back. Di Maria, who followed in the back row, easily pushed and scored.
One minute later, Jesse sent a cross in the counterattack, and Yang Yang easily pushed and hit, 3-0.
Scored twice!
In the thirty-ninth minute, there was another quick counterattack. Yang Yang returned the favor and sent a cross. Jesse easily pushed the empty goal and succeeded, sealing the victory for Real Madrid, 4-0!
Due to the Champions League match in the middle of the week, Real Madrid began to stay focused and slowed down the pace, especially in the second half, Zidane began to make substitutions and adjustments, preparing for the Champions League semi-final against Manchester City at home in the middle of the week.

On the evening of April 26th, at the Bernabeu Stadium in Madrid.
Real Madrid host Manchester City in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final.
Manchester City has a three-back lineup for this game, with Fernando, Yaya Toure and Fernandinho forming the midfield.
These three strong men appeared in the starting lineup at the same time, obviously to restrain Real Madrid's midfielder.
The frontcourt is supplemented by an offensive combination of Sterling, Aguero and Navas.
Anyone can see from the starting list of the midfielder and frontcourt that Manchester City's away game strategy is to focus on stability.
Real Madrid has won consecutive victories in the past few games and is unstoppable. Since the 6-0 victory over Wolfsburg in the Champions League, they have scored 19 goals without conceding a goal in the past four games .
With such a defensive ability and such an offensive firepower, Pellegrini would not dare to underestimate him at the Bernabéu.
Real Madrid's formation tonight is also somewhat surprising.
The team still played with a four-four-two double forward lineup, but the two midfielders Casemiro and Mascherano did not start, and were replaced by the double-skilled midfielder of Toni Kroos and Modric. The combination of the waist, Hazard on the left, Di Maria on the right, and the combination of Yang Yang and Suarez in the frontcourt.
Obviously, Zidane is going to storm Manchester City at his home court.
...
"Real Madrid take the lead."
"Manchester City are aggressively going forward, and the three players in the midfield are like three iron gates."
"Toni Kroos sent a through ball to try to find Yang Yang, but Kompany headed it back quickly."
"Manchester City hold the ball at the back, Real Madrid are slowly retreating."
"Kompani took the ball forward and planned the attack, look at Manchester City's attack this time, suddenly shifted to the left, but..."
"Di Maria intercepted the ball!"
"Beautiful interception in the middle, look at Di Maria's attack this time, and launch a counterattack directly."
"A diagonal pass with the left foot that falls behind City's defence."
"Yang Yang plugged in quickly..."
"Beautiful stop, very solid, the ball is like glued to the foot."
"Yang Yang's stop of the ball is absolutely master-level, so wonderful."
"The ball hits the perimeter of the penalty area, let's see how Yang Yang handles it."
"Cross pass to Suarez, and then pass back to the penalty area..."
"Yang Yang inserted into the restricted area, single-handedly..."
"The ball went in!!!!!!"
"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"
"In less than two minutes, Real Madrid took the lead in knocking on Manchester City's goal, one to zero!"
"The exquisite cooperation between Yang Yang and Suarez. At the front of Manchester City's penalty area, the two played a very tacit cooperation. Look at this slow-motion replay. Yang Yang's stop is really very beautiful, which makes Manchester City's defensive players very happy. Difficult to block."
"Suarez and Yang Yang cooperated very well. When he saw Yang Yang pass, he knew how his teammates would move. He directly pushed a ball behind him, so that Yang Yang would be very comfortable to insert behind, and he would directly form a one-handed game."
"Very good start!"
"In just over a minute, Real Madrid took the lead at the Bernabéu Stadium!"
"Recently, Real Madrid's morale is indeed very good, and the player's game dedication and state are also amazing, which makes the whole team full of dominance."
...
After scoring a goal in the opening game, Real Madrid began to take advantage of their skillful pass and control, coupled with their home court advantage, and the momentum of the first strike, firmly occupying an absolute advantage on the field and suppressing Manchester City in the half.
The Premier League team is quite passive. Although there are three midfielders in charge, they still cannot guarantee the defense of their own team and the safety of the goal. This makes Pellegrini very nervous on the sidelines, constantly directing and adjusting the ball. Team, I hope the team can stabilize the situation as soon as possible, and don't mess around.
But in the 17th minute, Carvajal from the right sent a diagonal pass to the center of the penalty area. Yang Yang quickly ran up and sprinted, leaped high, and under the attack of Kompany and Otamendi, he grabbed the ball. At the first point, he directly shook his head and sent the ball into the goal that was close at hand, two to zero!
Scored twice!
Yang Yang excitedly rushed out of Manchester City's penalty area, and ran all the way amidst the cheers of Real Madrid fans at the Bernabéu.
"What an amazing start!"
"Before the game, we all knew that Manchester City is a Premier League championship team with the strength of the top European teams, but no matter what, we never thought that Real Madrid's start at the Bernabéu Stadium would be so smooth!"
"It's just unbelievable."
"Maybe, Real Madrid's starting lineup is really bold, but I have to say, very targeted."
"What is even more surprising is that from the beginning to now, Real Madrid has not even given a shot to Manchester City. The Premier League teams have not even played a threatening attack so far. What a terrible dominance. ?”
"If Real Madrid continue to play at their own pace, maybe after the first round of the Champions League semi-final, the two rounds will have completely lost suspense."
The Real Madrid fans in the audience were cheering wildly, and standing in front of the coach of the home team, Zidane was also inexplicably excited, cheering for Yang Yang's goal, but he couldn't help but think of what Yang Yang told him before the game words.
"Fortunately, we are not opponents!" Zidane murmured happily.
