Real Madrid has become the earliest team to advance to the Champions League this season, and it is also one of the teams with the strongest attacking force in the group stage.

Benitez once again defended his reputation as the king of the cup, while Yang Yang became the best player in the group stage with four goals and three assists.

At the same time, Barcelona is also sitting at the Camp Nou Stadium, with the goals of Pique and Pedro, beating Inter Milan 2-0, occupying the advantage in the battle for the top spot in the group.

Although the two giants in La Liga are facing very different situations, the two midweek matches are regarded as the outposts of the Derby of the Century, which basically represent the current situation of the two teams.

Real Madrid played Zurich, Benitez played as a substitute, including Yang Yang, Ibrahimovic, Kaka, Robben, Xavi Alonso, Mascherano, etc. Many players None of them played in the game, and some did not even enter the squad, which shows Benitez's determination.

Real Madrid is recharging its batteries and waiting for the next derby of the century.

And all the fans are also looking forward to this focus game, because in the thirty-fourth round of last season, Barcelona beat Real Madrid 6-2 at Real Madrid's Bernabeu Stadium, which made the Galaxy battleship all over the place. ashamed.

This summer, Real Madrid made a comeback and introduced a number of top stars such as Yang Yang. The strength of the team has soared. Everyone is looking forward to the team being able to avenge last season's revenge at Camp Nou.

The situation on Barcelona's side is not as good as that of Real Madrid. Although Guardiola has hidden the main core Messi in the game against Inter Milan, there are many core main players such as Xavi, Iniesta, Busquets, Keita, etc. Alves, Puyol, Pique and Abidal, the main line of defense this season, all played the full game.

Against Inter, it was a game that Barcelona couldn't afford to lose, so they went all out.

Guardiola took the initiative to show weakness after the game, praising Real Madrid's outstanding performance this season, and thinking that it is normal for the Galaxy Battleship to be ranked first in the La Liga standings.

"Benitez is a very good manager, although we have only played one game, before he led Liverpool to beat us in two rounds in the round of 16, and I was sitting in the stands. I think he's a very good manager and he has won at Camp Nou and it's a testament to his quality."

"And Yang Yang, who has always had a good performance against Barcelona so far, he will be a key factor in this game, of course, we also have Messi, both players are very good. "

Guardiola also said that the impression that Real Madrid is weaker than Barcelona is wrong, "Real Madrid is a very, very, very good team, they have a group of very, very, very good players, that's why they are the league leaders. s reason."

The Barcelona coach used a lot of words to describe Real Madrid's teams and players in one breath, which proves that he attaches great importance to Real Madrid.

Not only the head coach, but the captain Puyol also said in an interview with the media after playing Inter Milan that Real Madrid and Barcelona are evenly matched, and anyone can win at Camp Nou.

"Real Madrid is a very good team, and their attack is also full of threats, they have a group of high-level attacking players. We have to pay attention to marking Yang Yang, we must not relax our defense against him, and there are other players, It also needs attention.”

...

Compared with Barcelona's initiative to show weakness, Real Madrid responded without being humble or arrogant.

Casillas said that Barcelona is playing football that is pleasing to the eyes, "but we came to Camp Nou, not afraid of anyone, we are now No. 1 in La Liga or in the Champions League, we are confident that we can Play against any team, even Barcelona at the Camp Nou."

The World Sports Daily revealed that the famous Spanish wizard Pepe (same name as the Real Madrid star) is a Barcelona fan. He has placed a spell on Yang Yang in his apartment. He put two photos of Yang Yang in a pile of bones to form a composition. He set up a miniature altar to cast spells, hoping to prevent Yang Yang from appearing at Camp Nou.

During the casting, he even used incision to prove his spells and mana.

In this regard, Yang Yang smiled and said that he did not care when he was interviewed by the media after the match in Zurich.

"I am an atheist. I believe that in this world, if you want to get something, you have to work hard to get it with your own hands. I have never believed in so-called wizards and spells."

Yang Yang also denied that Real Madrid suffered from [Yang Yang Dependence Disorder], because the team ranked first in both the Champions League and La Liga, "This is not something I can do alone, it is the joint efforts of everyone in the team. the result of."

As for Barcelona, ​​Yang Yang's opinion is still the same as before. He thinks Barcelona's football is more beautiful and more dreamy, but from the results, Real Madrid is the best team in La Liga, "because we are currently ranked first, and the next We will continue to prove that in this game.”

"It will definitely be a pleasing and exciting game at the same time." Yang Yang looked forward to it with a smile, "I hope all great players can play and bring out the best in themselves and bring the fans to the table. Everything they wanted to see."

"And in the end, it must be Real Madrid who took the three points away from Camp Nou!" Yang Yang said confidently.

…………

…………

There is a lot of talk outside, but inside the team, Real Madrid is still very cautious about this Camp Nou battle.

Yang Yang and others have rested for a week and did not participate in the Champions League game in the middle of the week. The purpose is to recharge their batteries and play Barcelona.

The home team did not have such good luck. Because the game against Inter Milan was too important, in addition to Messi, the main stars, including Xavi and Iniesta, played all the games.

This is undoubtedly very beneficial to Real Madrid.

At noon the next day after playing Zurich, Benitez convened all the players and held the first intra-team tactical meeting, focusing on discussing the upcoming derby of the century.

how to spell?

This became the focus of everyone's attention.

Locker room bigwigs such as Raul and Guti have been reduced to substitutes this season. They played in the game against Zurich, which proves that they will definitely be substitutes when playing Barcelona, ​​or even be placed outside the squad.

Among other players, Yang Yang is undoubtedly the most powerful.

Benitez also obviously attaches the most importance to Yang Yang's opinion.

...

"I think, can we take advantage of the opening attack?" Yang Yang suggested, looking at Benitez and Yesterdam.

Opening attack?

Everyone in the conference room was stunned.

Real Madrid, this is a golden sign. For the people of this team, whether it is the high-ranking chairman or the unnamed fans, there is an indescribable sense of pride, and the players are no exception.

In the face of a deadly enemy like Barcelona, ​​everyone knows that it is a foolish choice to play against each other, but they are unwilling to be as tenacious as other teams.

The opening attack proposed by Yang Yang is undoubtedly in line with their ideas.

"Barcelona has a lot of problems this season. For example, they are generally slow to enter the state, and they have just fought Inter Milan, which is equivalent to giving us a huge advantage. If we can use the opening attack to lay a solid foundation. If there is an advantage, then the game will be easier to handle.”

If they can score a goal in the opening attack, Real Madrid can retreat properly, let Barcelona take the initiative to attack, and then slowly fight the opponent's counterattack. In this way, the fans and the media can't say anything, and the players themselves can accept it.

"We have also considered this idea, and there are opportunities and risks." Yesterdam took the initiative to take over the topic.

"Of course, there is no need to mention the opportunity. Our physical fitness has an advantage against Barcelona. The opening attack can catch the opponent by surprise. Even if they are prepared, they will definitely not be able to grab us."

Yesterdam changed his words, "But the risk is not small, we will definitely consume a lot of physical strength when we attack for a while, and we must adopt a double-back play method, so that once the attack is unfavorable, , to give the opponent a chance to counterattack, we will be very dangerous."

"And you must know that after the attack consumes a certain amount of physical strength, it will also be a big test for us in the second half."

Those present were the best in European football, and naturally they all understood what Yesterdam meant.

To put it bluntly, Real Madrid play Barcelona, ​​grab the ball and fight against each other, that is a certain death.

Even if they attack at the beginning, once Barcelona stabilizes their position, Real Madrid must immediately turn to defense. In the face of a team like Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid must be more active in running and pressing, which requires physical fitness.

Crisis crisis, crisis only opportunity.

"I think we can give it a try, we have a chance." Yang Yang still insisted on his own opinion.

Benitez looked at Yang Yang deeply, then turned to look at other players, and found that most of them, including Ibrahimovic, Kaka, Robben, Xavi Alonso, Law Er, Guti, Ramos, and others, all nodded in agreement, obviously preferring Yang Yang's attitude.

As Real Madrid, if you don't even dare to attack at the opening, it would be too useless.

"How sure are you?" Benitez asked Yang Yang.

Yang Yang thought about it for a while, and replied confidently: "I think it is at least much higher than a full-court counterattack."

Everyone nodded in unison.

As long as the opening goal can be grabbed, it is a huge benefit for Real Madrid.

This season's Real Madrid itself is known for its offensive ability, but it is defensive, full of mistakes and problems.

Benitez and Jesterdam glanced at each other and thought they could give it a try.

"Then we will study and study how to attack."
