Chapter 1475 La Liga Good Brother
Reversing Barcelona to the top of the standings made the atmosphere in the entire Valdebebas even more enthusiastic.
Real Madrid has ignited the flames of hope, and they all hope that the team can stabilize their position in the future, further establish a leading advantage, and then they can go hand in hand in the Champions League and La Liga.
The team was full of joy, but the coaching staff didn't dare to be careless at all.
After playing Real Sociedad, Real Madrid quickly started preparing for the knockout round of the UEFA Champions League in the middle of the week.
...
"Judging from the current team's performance, Marcelo's state has recovered very quickly. It can be said that when playing against Paris Saint-Germain, his left side will still become our most important offensive weapon."
David Bertoni is basically satisfied with the current situation of the team. Except for the injured, the status of other players has also improved significantly compared to January, which makes the team more confident.
"Thanks to Yang Yang." Zidane looked at Yang Yang with a smile, "If you hadn't come forward to say that and stimulated Marcelo, I guess he would not be so desperate, and his state would not be able to recover. It went so well."
Yang Yang responded with a smile, but he didn't take it seriously at all.
The work of the coaches is of course important for the recovery of the players, but the players themselves are the key.
He has a very good relationship with Marcelo, so he understands Marcelo's character and the temper of the Brazilian left-back, so he can follow Marcelo's temper to guide him, stimulate him, and then stimulate his state.
On the contrary, Modric, who looks stable now, seems to be deliberately maintaining a stable state.
Regarding Zidane's compliment to Yang Yang, the rest of the coaching staff also admitted that Pintus even smiled and patted Yang Yang on the shoulder to show his appreciation and approval. They are all very aware of Yang Yang's contribution, so they naturally know that Zidane Words are not too much.
"Paris Saint-Germain has been a bit too active recently, are we going to give some counterattacks before the game?" Zidane asked.
David Bertoni and others remained silent, because they all knew that what Zidane most wanted to hear was Yang Yang's opinion.
The remarks before the game are related to psychological warfare, and Yang Yang is a good player.
Whether pointing out Barcelona's fatigue before or stimulating Marcelo, Yang Yang's psychological tactics have played a vital role.
Even to a certain extent, Yang Yang contributed a lot to Barcelona's recent consecutive draws.
Sometimes, the state of the team is like this. Yang Yang pointed out the exhaustion of Barcelona. Although Barcelona players will resist, they will inevitably associate exhaustion. The emotion of exhaustion is like an infectious disease. The more you think about it, the worse it becomes. .
But Real Madrid's current number one opponent is not Barcelona, but Paris Saint-Germain.
Recently, Paris Saint-Germain's players have indeed been a little too active.
Neymar said in a high-profile interview with the media before that the era belonging to Yang Yang is over.
Just this past weekend, Di Maria first came forward to remind Real Madrid that Paris Saint-Germain was stronger than last season, and everyone in Real Madrid should be more careful.
Of course, Di Maria said it more politely, and he also admitted that Real Madrid is a great team.
But Neymar is not so tactful.
The Brazilian superstar once again made a high-profile statement in an interview with the Daily Mirror on the weekend that Real Madrid's fiery state in La Liga does not explain any problems, because in the Champions League, Real Madrid's opponents will be even stronger.
"Although in La Liga, they are at the top of the table, their position is not solid. I played in La Liga, so I know that in La Liga, Real Madrid and Barcelona are the two most special teams. It's hard to shake them, but in the Champions League we have what it takes to challenge them."
As for this season's Champions League, Neymar believes that there are two teams that are the favorites to win the championship, that is, Paris Saint-Germain and Manchester City.
"Teams like Real Madrid, Barcelona and Bayern Munich are big favorites every season, but this season, we and Manchester City are the teams to be reckoned with and we will prove that at the Bernabeu soon."
First provoking Yang Yang, and then provoking Real Madrid, Neymar can be said to be very active.
His intention is obvious, that is to suppress Real Madrid first, fight a war of words, and boost the morale of Paris Saint-Germain.
...
Yang Yang has seen Neymar's report, but he doesn't take it seriously.
"I don't think it is necessary to ignore them. On the contrary, I think we should be more low-key."
Zidane frowned, "What do you mean?"
"You should all have studied Ligue 1. So far this season, Ligue 1 has played 25 rounds. Paris Saint-Germain leads the second-placed Monaco by as much as 12 points. It can be said that the Ligue 1 champion has been locked in advance."
Everyone nodded. As the Champions League opponents, it is naturally impossible for Real Madrid not to collect information on Paris Saint-Germain.
"Paris Saint-Germain has never encountered any decent challenges in Ligue 1. Their opponents are almost vulnerable to Paris Saint-Germain. In the last three rounds, Paris Saint-Germain has not conceded a goal. The average The ball possession rate exceeds 70%, which shows how watery Paris Saint-Germain's games in Ligue 1 are."
Many of Zidane's coaching staff are from France, so they are very familiar with Ligue 1. It is somewhat embarrassing for Yang Yang's comments on Ligue 1, but I have to admit that this is the truth.
Besides Paris Saint-Germain in Ligue 1 today, are there other teams that can do it?
Monaco reached the semi-finals last season, but that was also related to their failure to meet a real strong team. In terms of strength, they did not have the strength to enter the semi-finals, so they sold a lot of players this season. After 2 players, Monaco was directly at the bottom of the group, without a win, and was directly eliminated.
"Paris played so smoothly in Ligue 1 that they may be a little blind to their own strength, and we have to know that once the team gets used to playing in this environment, it is often difficult to change and it is difficult to jump out of themselves. comfort zone."
At this moment, everyone present immediately understood what Yang Yang meant.
Indeed, Paris Saint-Germain's strength has skyrocketed this season, but that is at the offensive level, not necessarily at the defensive level.
"I think we should follow Paris Saint-Germain's intentions, show weakness to the enemy, and let them continue to make a high profile." Yang Yang followed his own meaning and continued, "I have watched a few games in Paris, and I think they The central midfield defense was a problem, which was exposed after Matuidi left the team, but few teams in Ligue 1 have been able to take advantage of this."
"Bayern Munich and Lyon have used it once. As a result, they beat Paris 3-1 and 2-1, but no other team has the strength to make a fuss about the weakness of Paris Saint-Germain. .”
Sometimes football games are like this. Even if the opponent's weakness is obvious, it still depends on whether the opponent has strength or not.
"This season, Neymar and Di Maria have been introduced, as well as Alves on the right. The two wings of Paris are indeed very strong. If we continue to fight with them, we will end up losing both sides. Can get a bargain."
Yang Yang knew very well in his heart that today's Real Madrid seems to be flying on both wings, but in fact they still rely more on the full-backs. The front wing is not good. waist position.
Mbappe, Asensio and Vazquez can all play out wide, "but I hope they are in the second half!"
Zidane immediately understood Yang Yang's meaning, "You want to spend the first half and decide the outcome in the second half."
"That's right, but we have to learn from Barcelona's experience and lessons from last season, and we can't let Paris Saint-Germain play the rhythm we are familiar with, so I think we have to grab a wave at the beginning, not for goals, just want to play. Disrupt their rhythm, and at the same time strengthen the press and pressure in the midfield to curb their passing and possession."
Real Madrid's midfield press is very skillful and the effect is obvious. Once the ball is grabbed, the personal ability of the Real Madrid star may create a threat at any time. This is something that any team must be afraid of.
"When the midfield is pressing, Suarez and I can press their central defenders, and the full-backs move forward to contain the two wings. In this way, the front of the penalty area will definitely be exposed. This is the weakness of Paris Saint-Germain, Lyon and Bayern. This is how Munich fights." Yang Yang said with a confident smile.
In Lyon's 2-1 victory over Paris Saint-Germain, Fekir, who was inserted in the middle of the midfield, passed and shot, and was elected as the best player of the game. The waist player Tolisso scored twice, and James Rodriguez also played well. These are not accidental.
After Matuidi left the team, the combination of Verratti, Rabiot and Lo Celso made Paris Saint-Germain's pass and control play more organized. , had the upper hand, but behind it was their defense, especially the interception in the midfield and the serious lack of protection for the defense.
It's a question of trade-offs.
In this world, it is difficult to have the kind of player who can provide the team with delicate passing and organization, and at the same time can defend desperately and protect the defense line. This is why Harvey Alonso was able to The reason for playing the main midfielder in Bayern Munich.
"I understand what you mean." Zidane nodded again and again, "Then listen to you and let them be proud for a while."
After a pause, Zidane let out a heavy breath, "The face that Barcelona lost at the Parc des Princes last season, we will get it back for them this season!"
After hearing this, Yang Yang couldn't help laughing, "Who told us to be good brothers in La Liga?"
When everyone heard the two of them singing together, they all laughed at the same time.
Sometimes, it is difficult for them to keep up with the thinking of Yang Yang and Zidane. These two guys are the top superstars in the world. Their tactical thinking and understanding of football are too advanced and out of touch. Even if they are It is also difficult for professional coaches to keep up with their rhythm and logic of thinking.
It was only after the game was over that they replayed the video and data that they suddenly realized.
Perhaps, this is the biggest difference between superstars and them.
