Chapter 1385 Is Yang Yang Injured?
Last year's Asian trip made Real Madrid a lot of money, with an estimated income of more than 30 million euros, which made the entire European football world envious. But this summer, when Real Madrid made a summer training plan, they listened to the advice of Yang Yang and Zidane. It is suggested that instead of going to Asia, which has more lucrative income, I choose North America, which is closer.
Real Madrid's training location is located in Montreal, Canada. The three warm-up matches are Columbus in Canada, Ann Arbor in Michigan, and New Jersey. Their opponents are Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea and Bayern Munich. The three games are North American International Champions Cup warm-up matches .
According to preliminary estimates, Real Madrid's revenue this summer is expected to reach 20 million euros, which is a full 10 million euros less than last year, but the journey has been significantly shortened, avoiding the team's exhaustion.
Obviously, the club management still listened to the protests of Yang Yang and Zidane last season.
Since the international players who participated in the America's Cup and European Cup all returned to the team ahead of schedule, Real Madrid's training camp is fully staffed, and everyone is meticulous in training and dare not relax in the slightest.
Just like last year, Pintus' training intensity is very high, and the players' state is also greatly affected.
Especially Yang Yang.
The difference from previous years is that this year Yang Yang’s personal trainer, Winston Bogard, was allowed to accompany the team and be in charge of Yang Yang’s training throughout. This was specially approved by the club management, and Winston Bogard’s task was to provide Yang Yang lost weight.
For many professional players, gaining weight is a very painful thing, but what they don't know is that for a player like Yang Yang who is very strong, losing weight is far more painful than gaining weight.
All the Real Madrid players watched Yang Yang's weight loss training in the training camp. Not only did he have to participate in group training with the team, but he also had to train alone. The intensity was very high, which made Real Madrid even more afraid slack.
Let me ask, even Yang Yang, who is the number one star in the team and also the chief assistant coach, works so hard, why do they have any reason to be lazy? How dare they be careless?
As a result of the high-intensity training, the Real Madrid team was in a sluggish state. Yang Yang was seriously under-qualified in the first warm-up match and could not represent Real Madrid in the game. This made the outside world even speculate whether Yang Yang was injured?
In the first warm-up match against Paris Saint-Germain, Real Madrid performed poorly.
The Ligue 1 team is obviously in a better state than Real Madrid. In the first half, the main players played and scored three goals for Real Madrid with overhead kicks. It was not until the 44th minute that Real Madrid created a penalty kick by Isco. Selo made a penalty and regained his face.
In the second half, both teams replaced eleven players, but neither team scored again.
In the end, Real Madrid lost the warm-up match one to three.
For this result, the attitude of the media and fans is generally more tolerant.
They have seen the situation of last season, and naturally they all know that the reason for the poor performance in the warm-up match is that Real Madrid is gradually adjusting, and the real performance will not be known until the start of the new season.
As for Yang Yang, who all the media and fans are concerned about, Zidane did not disclose Yang Yang's weight loss plan, but told the media that Yang Yang is still adjusting his status and cannot meet the requirements for playing games for the time being.
"But I believe that he should be able to adjust quickly and return to the game as soon as possible."

July 30, Michigan Stadium.
In the second game of the North American International Champions Cup, Real Madrid played against Chelsea.
Compared with the first warm-up match, Real Madrid's state has improved significantly this time, but despite this, Real Madrid still played with a large number of substitutes and rotations.
The goalkeeper is Keylor Navas, the defense is Marcelo, Nacho, Varane and Carvajal, the midfielder is Kante, Isco and De Bruyne are in the middle, and the frontcourt is Asensio, The trident combination of Morata and Vazquez.
As a result, it was such a broken formation. In the first half, Real Madrid relied on Marcelo's outstanding performance and the flashes of Asensio and Morata to score three goals in a row and take a 3-0 lead. Among them, Asensio With two assists, Morata scored a world wave.
After changing sides in the second half, Hazard, who came off the bench, scored twice in the last ten minutes and finally helped Real Madrid beat Chelsea 5-0. Conte's team performed sluggishly throughout.
After the game, Real Madrid received unanimous praise and praise, especially the newly joined Kante, Asensio and Morata, all showed surprising strength and standards.
However, at the post-match press conference, Zidane was not very satisfied with the team's performance. He believed that the team still had many problems. He hoped that everyone could make persistent efforts and strive for another success in the new season.
What many people are concerned about is that Yang Yang was absent from this game again, and he didn't even make the squad.

Surprisingly, Real Madrid is still dominated by young players, including Odegaard, Asensio and other players who all started, but none of the main players played, which led to Real Madrid's passiveness on the scene, even in In the first half hour, I didn't even take a shot, which was very embarrassing.
But in the 79th minute, Odegao passed the ball, Danilo volleyed from the right, broke the goal of Bayern Munich, and won a victory for Real Madrid.
Kanter once again played the whole game and still performed bravely. He showed a very good competitive state in the early part of the season.
But it is worth mentioning that Zidane had to explain Yang Yang's absence to the media again after the game.
He said that Yang Yang is not injured, but still needs to adjust his state.
"Obviously he's eager to get back to the team but we need him to be more patient and he needs to stay calm and he's been training with the team and we've been monitoring his progress very closely."
"The only thing I can say is that it's not the best time for him to play yet."

Aspen, who is close to Real Madrid, disclosed to the outside world for the first time that Yang Yang is undergoing weight-loss training.
"This is a targeted training jointly developed by the Real Madrid team doctor, physical coach, Yang Yang's personal trainer, nutritionist and many authoritative figures. They all believe that Yang Yang needs to lose weight to 80 kilograms. It is a very difficult challenge for Yang Yang, but according to the information disclosed by Real Madrid, Yang Yang's weight has basically dropped."
"It can be said that in the past half a month, Yang Yang has been training harder than any other player in the team, which has deeply infected the whole Real Madrid team, and everyone is working hard with him as the goal. "

"It will take some time."
The news from Aspen was immediately reposted by the media all over the world, which attracted great attention from the media and fans all over the world. They were all very curious about Yang Yang’s training, but they also believed that after going through this difficult training, Yang Yang It does take more time than others to adjust and recover.
Real Madrid fitness coach Pintus also said in an interview with the media that he has never met a player like Yang Yang, "He is the most diligent, hardworking and hardworking player I have ever seen. We are very touched by completing the training tasks without any compromise."
"He will be 30 years old soon, but we absolutely believe that he is still the best superstar on the planet!"

After Real Madrid returned to Europe, it immediately ushered in a Bernabeu Cup warm-up match.
This is a traditional event, but sometimes it is not held, and this time Real Madrid is celebrating the re-opening of the stadium after the successful transformation of the team's Bernabéu stadium.
Including Real Madrid chairman Florentino, club legends Kepa and Gento, as well as the core management, all attended the opening ceremony after the renovation of the stadium. Yang Yang also appeared in the stadium for the first time after an absence of more than half a month. in front of the world media.

"I wish I could play longer, so I need to reduce the weight of my body. They think it can better stimulate my form and keep my vitality on the pitch."
"This kind of training doesn't seem to be very common, but I still try to give it a try because I don't want to retire early."
...
In the Bernabéu Cup, Real Madrid still did not play with the main lineup, because next Real Madrid will go to Norway to play in the European Super Cup, and then there will be two Spanish Super Cup games.
Therefore, Real Madrid does not intend to consume too much energy in such a warm-up match.
The strength of the opponent is not strong. Real Madrid finally defeated the Ligue 1 team Reims 5-2 with the goals of Nacho, Ramos, Morata, De Bruyne and Asensio. The game also went well No surprises.
