Chapter 881 Crisis

Yang Yang's injury has dealt a huge blow to Real Madrid, especially in terms of the team's offense.

Losing one of the most important offensive firepower in the frontcourt and the team's best assist player, any team's offense will inevitably have to be readjusted, and this has seriously affected Real Madrid's game.

After losing at home to Osasuna, Real Madrid ushered in the first leg of the Champions League group stage with a five-point disadvantage and an away game against Eredivisie Twente.

The result was unfortunate. In the away game, although Kaka scored a goal for Real Madrid in the thirteenth and thirteenth minutes, Twente then pulled two goals in a row to reverse the score, and finally Zlatan Ibrahimovic in the fourth. Eleven minutes to tie the score.

In the end, Real Madrid away 2-2 Pinterest.

In the first game of the group stage, they failed to win the relatively weak Twente, and Real Madrid were not satisfied with the result of the game.

...

Back in La Liga, Real Madrid played away to Real Sociedad.

The first half of the game did not go well, but in the second half, Real Madrid changed its slump in the first half. First, David Silva passed the ball, Di Maria broke into the left side of the penalty area, and scored a volley with his right foot. , to break the deadlock on the field.

Then Real Sociedad pulled a game back, and Griezmann assisted Tamudo to tie the score, but Real Madrid quickly relied on a free kick opportunity in the frontcourt, and central defender Pepe scored with a header and the score was exceeded again.

In the end, Real Madrid defeated Real Sociedad 2-1 away.

But at the same time, Barcelona beat Atletico Madrid 2-1 away, with Messi scoring the opening goal.

...

In midweek, in the fourth round of La Liga, Real Madrid host Espanyol.

In the 28th minute of the first half, Real Madrid temporarily took the lead 1-0 thanks to Robben's goal.

But after changing sides and fighting again in the second half, Pepe fouled Callejon twice within five minutes, won consecutive cards, accumulated two yellow cards and was sent off with a red card. Lan was also sent off with a red card.

In the 78th minute, Real Madrid counterattacked, Kaka went straight to the left side of the penalty area, and Ibrahimovic scored from the left rib, extending the score to 2-0.

In the 89th minute, Xavi Alonso and Marcelo continued to hit the wall and crossed to the left. Higuain, who came off the bench, scored with a low shot to lock the score at 3-0. The Spaniard's player Fu Lin also protested after conceding the ball and was sent off after accumulating two yellow cards.

In the end, Real Madrid beat the Spaniard three-0 at home, but the three red cards caused a lot of controversy after the game.

In another game at the same time, Barcelona relied on Villa's lore goal to beat Sporting Gijon 1-0 at home and continued to maintain a five-point lead over Real Madrid.

...

This weekend, the fifth round of La Liga.

Barcelona beat 3-1 away with goals from Sedou Keita, Xavi and Busquets.

Real Madrid suffered a 0-0 draw away from Levante.

At the end of the five rounds, Barcelona won all five games and scored 15 points, but Real Madrid scored two wins, two draws and one loss, and only scored eight points, a full seven points behind.

After this round of games, Real Madrid coach Benitez encountered a crisis of the coaching position, especially Benitez's adjustment on the offensive end, which caused dissatisfaction from the outside world and fans.

Sitting on top European midfielders such as Ibrahimovic, Kaka, Robben, Di Maria, David Silva and Xavi Alonso, the result is that they perform on the offensive end Weakness, which is unreasonable in any case.

Benitez said at the post-match press conference after the draw with Levante that Yang Yang's absence had a huge impact on Real Madrid, but it could not quell the dissatisfaction of Real Madrid fans anyway.

The Real Madrid coach heard the voice of dismissal for the first time after taking charge of the team for more than a year.

...

Eight points behind Barcelona in La Liga, but back in the Champions League, Benitez's team soon ushered in a big victory.

With Ibrahimovic's hat-trick and Kaka's goal, Real Madrid beat Werder Bremen 4-0 at home, winning their first victory in the Champions League group stage this season, playing a game A hearty victory.

Benitez also relied on this game to once again confirm his reputation as the king of the cup. When he returned to the Champions League, Real Madrid immediately returned to his best offensive state and temporarily eased the coach's coaching crisis.

What's interesting is that, back in La Liga, Real Madrid ushered in Deportivo Deportivo at home.

Real Madrid, who had just won the Champions League by four goals, had nothing to do with Deportivo Deportivo, who was stubbornly defending at the Bernabeu Stadium. The two sides finally shook hands with zero to zero, and Real Madrid encountered another draw this season.

Two consecutive games of zero to zero, everyone can see that Benitez's team has indeed had some problems on the offensive end, especially in the face of a tightly defended team, losing Yang Yang's sharp weapon, Real Madrid The offensive threat is also greatly reduced.

However, due to the poor performance of Barcelona this round, they drew with Real Mallorca one-to-one at home, which made the media and fans more tolerant of Real Madrid's draw, but the doubts about Benitez were getting louder.

The focus is on the team's offense.

Sitting on the most luxurious offensive lineup in the world, but two consecutive 0-0, this is not justified by any means.

…………

…………

During the two-week national team game days, the Valdebebas training base in Madrid was empty, and only the medical department continued to work, especially the rehabilitation physiotherapy center.

On an instrument similar to a treadmill, Yang Yang grabbed the armrests on both sides and watched as the airbags wrapped below the waist rapidly inflated and expanded, and the body weight on his feet continued to drop.

This is a brand-new rehabilitation physiotherapy device called a microgravity stepper. As the name suggests, it can release upward wind force on the user's waist through the airbag, simulating the weightless state of astronauts in space, thereby reducing the burden on the legs. Weight can be reduced by up to 80 percent.

Yang Yang is now starting to practice stepping under this 20% gravity condition.

This is the first time he has started rehab 20 days after the injury.

The Real Madrid medical team attached great importance to this. Carlos Dias was with him the whole time, and Su Ye and Winston Bogard were also standing by, looking at Yang Yang on the stepper with great concern, watching him cautiously Every step is taken, kind of like a baby learning to walk.

Since coming to Madrid in mid-September, Su Ye has only returned to the United States halfway to deal with some things, and filmed the rest of the plot by the way. After that, she stayed in Madrid wholeheartedly to accompany Yang Yang to heal.

Winston Bogarde also flew directly from China to Madrid to take care of Yang Yang after his injury, and he is now an important member of Yang Yang's rehabilitation team, participating in Yang Yang's treatment and rehabilitation program throughout.

Don't look at the 20% gravity, but after walking for a while, Yang Yang was already sweating profusely.

Everyone has no doubt that if it is under normal gravity, let alone a long walk, even if it is just standing, it is estimated that Yang Yang will feel overwhelmed.

When the time was up, Su Ye immediately came over and wiped the sweat on Yang Yang's face in distress.

"How?" Winston Bogard asked with concern.

Yang Yang nodded, "It was a little stiff at first, but I didn't feel any pain."

He was talking about his right ankle.

"From the results of the filming, the recovery is very satisfactory, and the progress is faster than we thought before." Carlos Dias is also very happy with the progress of Yang Yang's injury, because as a doctor, especially Real Madrid fans, he hopes to see Yang Yang return to the game as soon as possible.

Losing Yang Yang was like a disaster for Real Madrid.

In the home draw with Deportivo Deportivo, the Bernabeu Stadium has been booed for dismissal, and it is obvious that the discerning Real Madrid fans are not satisfied with Benitez's coaching results this season.

Indeed, such a start doesn't look like it should be for a team aiming to defend its title.

Real Madrid is still the previous Real Madrid. At best, Sneijder has been replaced by David Silva and Kaka, but the performance of the team is very different, and it is Yang Yang who has caused the gap.

"Then can I come back early?" Yang Yang asked anxiously.

Carlos Dias and Winston Bogard looked at each other and both smiled bitterly.

Real Madrid, including the media and fans, are looking forward to Yang Yang's return as soon as possible, but Florentino and the management have given the medical team a death order, must take good care of the injury, no risk, no stay future trouble.

You know, how many talented players are injured in European football every year?

Florentino has even spoken, and even if Real Madrid is empty-handed this season, they will let Yang Yang take care of the injury.

This is in his mind the unshakable number one superstar in the Real Madrid team in the next five or even ten years.

However, Yang Yang's injury did bring a lot of variables to the team. For example, everyone on the team clearly realized that Benitez's training on offense was indeed worrying.

In the past, Yang Yang used his excellent performance to cover up the team's lack of attack, but when Yang Yang was injured and absent, Real Madrid's offensive firepower so far this season is really unsatisfactory.

The 4-0 win over Werder Bremen was in the Champions League, which is Benitez's home ground.

"Don't be in a hurry." Winston Bogard smiled and patted Yang Yang's shoulder, "Your most important task now is to recover from your injury, you don't have to think about anything. We initially estimate that you will have at least another half month. , even a month, can be regarded as a real recovery, and then you can participate in training, but you have to start from individual training."

"Yes, and your physical condition. You have gained weight recently and are overweight. You will definitely need to do some physical training for a while to find your condition." Carlos Dias also advised.

Rehabilitation is something that cannot be rushed, and it is easy to leave troubles if it is urgent.

Yang Yang also understands this, so he doesn't say anything more, and he doesn't want him to come back in a hurry, but leave a hidden danger of injury that may follow him for the rest of his life.
