Real Madrid's bus was smashed again!

Barcelona fans are making trouble outside the hotel again!

This is the news Yang Yang got from the club staff after he woke up on the morning of the match day.

That unlucky bus was smashed once last year, but I didn't expect that it still failed to escape the bad luck this year.

Last year, the night before the game, Barcelona fans also made noise outside the hotel all night, trying to affect the rest of the Real Madrid players, but this year Real Madrid has already prepared for this, and naturally it will not be affected again.

Unlike last year, more Real Madrid fans picked up at the airport this year, with more than 3,000 fans.

It can be seen that with the improvement of Real Madrid's overall strength and performance, it has attracted more and more fans. Even at the home court of its rival Barcelona, ​​there are still a group of die-hard fans.

...

"Pep Guardiola led the team to a closed training session at Camp Nou last night at Blackjack, refusing all fans and the media. No one knows what he practiced at Camp Nou. Barcelona's explanation for this is , There are too many people gathered in Gamper Sports City, Guardiola wants to prepare quietly."

"This morning's news, this year's derby of the century, there will be nearly 100 movie theaters in Spain that will broadcast live broadcasts in high-definition and surround sound, which can accommodate nearly 50,000 fans. It is said that the movie tickets have been sold out and are very popular. In addition More than 50 community theaters will also broadcast the game live."

"The Spanish professional league revealed that today's derby of the century will attract more than 700 million fans around the world, and nearly half of them are from Asia and East Asia. According to estimates, this number is expected to exceed one billion in the future. It is a very astonishing astronomical figure."

"The derby of the century is approaching, and the famous players of both teams have come forward. The former Barcelona star and Bulgarian star Stoichkov incited Barcelona fans before the game. He thinks you will receive the rudest treatment in the Nou Camp game. Scolding."

"Arab Al Jazeera revealed that their game tonight will attract more than 150 million fans to watch the live broadcast of this game. This is the most watched sports game in the history of Al Jazeera, surpassing the World Cup and the Champions League. "

"A lot of Argentine media started to promote Messi a week ago, and the Ole newspaper even used the front page headlines for a week to call on fans to support Messi and Barcelona. They all hope to see Messi win in the derby of the century. .”

"The Gazzetta dello Sport published today is also the headline on the front page looking forward to this world-renowned focus match. The Italian media are very envious, thinking that this is a truly sensational game around the world, and it is also an unprecedented show."

"Martin Einstein of ESPN revealed that more than 30 million people in the United States will watch this focus match, which will be the highest-rated football match outside of the US national team game, even surpassing the World Cup final and the Champions League. For this reason, ESPN specially arranged 20 people to report on the game, and invited Kempes and other well-known football critics to explain the game on the spot."

"In remote Oslo, Norway, a business has installed a giant TV screen and will broadcast the game live to attract fans to watch the game."

...

When Yang Yang was training in the gym, fitness coach Francisco de Michele was watching the news on the iPad that Yang Yang gave him. Yang Yang shared.

This also saves Yang Yang the time to read the newspaper in the morning.

After De Michel finished watching the news, Yang Yang also finished his extra training in the morning profusely, panting beside him.

"To be honest, Francisco, your voice is really not magnetic." Yang Yang complained in disgust, shook his head and left with a sigh, leaving Demichel over there, full of depression.

It's too much, I'll be your newspaper reader for free, don't you think so?

However, he also knew that Yang Yang was deliberately joking with him.

Tonight's game will attract the attention of the whole world. This is a stage that countless players dream of. It may make an unknown player become famous overnight, or it may make a famous star be questioned all at once.

In the end is Real Madrid better? Or Barcelona's perfect revenge?

De Michel himself was very disturbed.

…………

It is a habit of Benitez to hold a tactical meeting on the morning of the match day.

He will not announce the starting lineup of the game at the tactical meeting, or anything else, these will be left until before the game.

In other words, the players and the outside world know the starting list at the same time.

The most important task of the tactical meeting is to instill the tactical intentions of the upcoming game with the players by the coaching staff, as well as possible situations that may arise during the game, and give countermeasures.

For tonight's derby of the century, Benitez and the coaching staff also attach great importance to it.

The outside world has been rumored that Real Madrid is currently 10 points behind Barcelona and has basically missed the La Liga competition this season. If Benitez loses the Century Derby again, then he will take the blame and resign and will not survive the winter break.

This rumor is true or false. Yang Yang knows that the management has indeed made a request that they can no longer lose the Century Derby, but the away draw is also within the acceptable range. As for what will happen if they lose, it probably depends on the loss. What has become.

Both Benitez and the coaching staff were under pressure, but they clearly did not bring this pressure to the dressing room.

In the tactical meeting, Benitez first put forward the key to playing Barcelona, ​​defensive counterattack.

After a season of training and polishing, Real Madrid players are basically familiar with Benitez's zone-marking defense system. They are very clear about how to run, how to press, and how to counterattack on the field.

Benitez's defensive gist is only one, that is to control the space on the football field, cut off the opponent's ball line, launch a counterattack immediately after the interception, and threaten the opponent's goal as quickly as possible.

Real Madrid and Barcelona played two games last season, using two different styles of play.

The first match was also on the road. Real Madrid played more bravely and took more risks. The team scored a goal at the beginning, and then succeeded in continuous counterattacks. In the end, they defeated Barcelona 5-0.

This seemed like a big victory, but it was actually very dangerous. Therefore, in the second round of the game, Benitez made adjustments and used three midfielders to deal with Barcelona. In the end, he defeated the opponent at his home court. Double kill Barcelona.

Benitez analyzed and summarized the two games at the tactical meeting. He said that he had repeatedly studied many times and kept deliberating on various possibilities. He finally came to the conclusion that the first game was too big. Too risky, the second game is too conservative.

"Barcelona is characterized by stability, very stability, and it can even be said that it is a very ordinary kind of stability. It is too risky to play such a team, and it is too conservative." Benitez made a comment on the past two matchups. Summarize.

Yang Yang agrees with Benitez's judgment very much.

When playing against Barcelona, ​​taking risks is suicide, and being conservative is slow suicide. Neither of these two methods can win the game.

There were two duels last season, the luckiest match was the first match, and it was very dangerous to win the second match, but sometimes, luck will not follow you all the time, it is very stupid to always pin the initiative on luck of.

Liverpool's previous strategy against Barcelona was the best. It was neither conservative nor risky. It faced Barcelona with a stable and orderly high-position press, trying to turn every steal into a sharp counterattack.

This requires all players on the court, including the stars in the frontcourt, to be able to actively engage in pressing and pressing.

In Benítez's words, "I hope you're all cramping in seventy minutes!"

Cramping at 70 minutes is tantamount to asking every player to run more and harder than usual.

The more Real Madrid's players run, the greater their physical consumption. The players on the opposite side of Barcelona may be slightly better, but the situation will not be much better.

Strictly speaking, this is a tactic of exchange of [one thousand damage to oneself, eight hundred damage to the enemy].

Benitez told everyone clearly that in the second half when Barcelona's ability to control the ball declined, it would be the key to the team's turnaround.

Including Yang Yang, when everyone heard this, they had clearly realized that Benitez still wanted to substitute Yang Yang for this game, but they didn't know whether it was due to the request of the medical team or the coaching staff. intentional arrangement.

After all, this is only Yang Yang's second game after returning from injury.

Yang Yang also figured out what Benitez meant, that is to use the players in the frontcourt to compete with the Barcelona defenders, and then let Yang Yang go up and try to score a goal when the timing is right in the second half.

Of course, if the front can counterattack and score, it will undoubtedly be a better situation.

Later, Benitez mentioned many details, such as after stealing, he must be able to hold the ball under the opponent's high pressure, especially the midfielder of his own team.

Benitez even believes that whether his midfielder can hold the ball under the high-intensity press after Barcelona loses the ball will be the key to this game. This is obviously the result of his two duels last season, and Lessons learned from Barcelona's semi-final two-leg loss to Inter Milan.

As long as they can hold the ball after stealing the ball and pass it to the frontcourt to find Ibrahimovic, Real Madrid's counterattack can be played well.

Didn't Inter Milan use this style of play to eliminate Barcelona?

It's just that the Nerazzurri is Diego Milito, while Real Madrid has a more dominant Ibrahimovic.

The details arranged by Benitez are even accurate to the training time before the game. He hopes that the team can enter the Camp Nou training in advance, because he wants to get the whole team excited and enter the state directly from the very beginning.

"Because we cannot guarantee whether Barcelona will launch an attack at the beginning of this game."

As for whether he will continue to use the three-back play, Benitez did not give a clear answer.

This is also his usual style, because there will be a tactical meeting in the afternoon.

Surprisingly, after the Real Madrid players finished their lunch, it began to rain lightly outside.

God is not beautiful!
