Chapter 938 Real Madrid, Must Win!

"I wonder if you noticed it just now?"

Before the Champions League final, Real Madrid coach Benitez was asking Real Madrid's players in a deep voice in the head coach's bench at Wembley Stadium.

"The winner's stairway to the Royal Box podium at Wembley Stadium."

In the dressing room, many players nodded in unison. This is the symbol of Wembley Stadium, and they naturally noticed it. There are a total of 107 steps leading directly to the podium. It is also the two teams tonight. The stage everyone aspires to be on.

"There is a saying in the UK that winning at Wembley is unparalleled beauty, but losing is like living in hell, because there are 107 steps to the podium, for the winner In terms of it, this is a wonderful enjoyment, and it will be cheered and applauded by the fans in the audience, but for the loser, it will be a disaster. Every step will be extremely heavy and painful, and you can't wait to walk directly back to the locker room. "

Yang Yang, Xavi Alonso, Mascherano and others all nodded in unison, and they had all heard of such rumors.

But a lot of people on the team had never heard of it, so they were all surprised.

Wembley Stadium is the stage of the Champions League final, and it is also the hall in the hearts of all professional players, but only the winner can enjoy the glory of the 107 steps, and the loser is more of a shame.

This is professional football!

It's cruel, but it's fair!

"If we don't want to be a painful loser, then we have to win Barcelona tonight." Benitez was making his last mobilization before the game. Just now, he had arranged the whole game tonight. Race all things.

"We have this quality, because in the past two years, we have beaten our opponents five times in a row, I believe, tonight will be the sixth time and also the fourth time this season, we will leave Barcelona An everlasting shadow."

Speaking of this, Benitez's tone and demeanor were filled with pride.

He is the most die-hard Real Madrid fan, and he is proud of being able to form such an overwhelming advantage over Barcelona.

Benitez is really not a speaker. If his remarks were normal, it would not be exciting enough, but at Wembley, before the Champions League final, everyone at Real Madrid heard him. When he spoke, he couldn't help but get excited, as if his whole body was set on fire.

Especially when the bell of the Hungarian referee Viktor Kashoy rang in the locker room to remind him to enter the field, everyone stood up from their seats in unison, and under the gesture of captain Casillas, they tacitly surrounded themselves. In a group, they handed out each other's hands and overlapped each other, and everyone shouted their hearts out.

"Real Madrid, must win!"

…………

When the Real Madrid players walked to the exit of the player tunnel and waited, the Barcelona players had already prepared here.

They lined up and greeted Real Madrid players with grace.

Killing people on the court turned their backs, but on the court, there is still a certain demeanor.

It's just that when they saw Yang Yang at the end of the Real Madrid team, every Barcelona player's eyes revealed wariness, and even a little bit of fear, because Yang Yang was their biggest opponent tonight.

He debuted in Ajax, moved to Liverpool and then came to Real Madrid. Yang Yang has had an eight-year career so far. He has encountered Barcelona several times, and he left the stadium as a winner, which is almost a legend.

In today's world of football, no player can do that.

So for Yang Yang, Barcelona players have a deep-seated fear, even fear.

And Yang Yang will definitely be the most terrifying opponent that Barcelona's defensive players will face tonight. In the words of head coach Guardiola, if Yang Yang is frozen, most of the game will be won.

But if you want to freeze him, how easy is it to say?

Many Barcelona players have also noticed the arrangement of Real Madrid's starting players.

Benitez has always been good at winning by surprise, and once again a surprise tonight, that is, Robben did not play.

Yang Yang, Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Robben have always been the iron triangle of Real Madrid's frontcourt. Yang Yang and Robben play on both flanks. If one of them fails, Di Maria will be used instead.

But tonight, not only did Robben not show up, but Di Maria did not show up either.

Instead, it's Kaka.

The goalkeeper is Casillas, the defense is Marcelo, Pepe, Ramos and Maicon, and the three midfielders are Xavi Alonso, Javier Martinez and Mascherano.

There is no suspense in Real Madrid's midfield and backcourt. Benitez really adopted a more stable three-back play style, but the problem lies in the frontcourt. Without Robben and Di Maria, how can Real Madrid play on the wing? ?

Is to let Kaka play right winger? Or let Kaka play the attacking midfielder and Yang Yang and Ibrahimovic play the double striker?

If it's the former, why not go to Robben or Di Maria, but Kaka?

If it's the latter, what about Real Madrid's wing?

Barcelona spent a lot of effort before the game to curb the attack of Real Madrid's frontcourt trident, but as a result, Benitez took the initiative to fold his wings and won Robben and Di Maria, but these two players were both. on the bench.

This situation is a bit like the situation in which Benitez hid Yang Yang in the first century derby of the season.

...

Barcelona is watching Real Madrid, and Real Madrid players are also watching Barcelona.

Yang Yang noticed that Guardiola's starting lineup has not changed much.

The goalkeeper is Valdes, the defense is Adriano, Pique, Puyol and Alves, the midfield is Busquets, Xavi and Iniesta are in the middle, and the front is Villa, May West and Pedro.

Guardiola still has not adjusted the team's starting lineup, and it is estimated that the tactics will not change much.

This is a very important problem for Barcelona this season. The shortcomings of the bench lineup are obvious. Even if Guardiola wants to adjust the lineup, he will not have to change it.

Unless he is willing to trust players like Bojan, Afele, Sedou Keita.

Guardiola believes in actively controlled football, so he doesn't need to think about how the opponent will arrange it at all. He is more concerned about whether the team can play its due combat effectiveness and play its own style and characteristics.

Therefore, regardless of Barcelona's uniform starting lineup, Guardiola's on-the-spot command is not very good, but there are only a handful of teams that can contain or even defeat Barcelona, ​​looking at the entire world football.

But unfortunately, Real Madrid is one of them.

And it's the strongest one!

He was guessed again! Yang Yang thought to himself.

Benitez's targeted tactics are really powerful, and Yang Yang is also convinced by this.

In response to this, Benitez also made targeted arrangements.

…………

…………

Before the game, UEFA arranged a concise opening ceremony.

This is also the norm in every Champions League final.

Real Madrid were drawn to the home team, wearing a white jersey, while Barcelona also wore their red and blue jerseys.

When Yang Yang and Ibrahimovic stood in the middle circle, they immediately became the focus of the audience and even the whole world.

After two years of partnering at Real Madrid, plus the year at Ajax, Yang Yang and Ibrahimovic had a tacit understanding. They didn’t need any words at all. Just a look at each other could tell what the other was thinking. .

And when the referee Kashoy blew the whistle, Ibrahimovic quickly kicked the ball to Yang Yang.

The audience burst into thunderous cheers.

...

"National TV, National TV!"

"Audience friends, this is the capital of England, London's Wembley Stadium."

"What we're broadcasting for you now is the Champions League final of the 2010-11 season, Real Madrid vs. Barcelona, ​​and now the first kick-off is Real Madrid in the white jersey."

"We saw Real Madrid's No. 11 player, this is a player from our China, the number one player in the world today, Yang Yang."

"This is Yang Yang's fifth Champions League final in his career. The previous one was for Ajax and the other two were for Liverpool. Last season, Real Madrid had already reached the Champions League final once and won the championship. If Yang Yang can win the championship tonight. Help Real Madrid beat Barcelona again, then they will become the first team to successfully defend the Champions League in the 20 years since the reform of the Champions League."

"The game started very fast, and we saw that Real Madrid had reached the front."

"We will find an opportunity next to introduce the starting lineups of the two sides to everyone. Now look at Real Madrid's attack and leave it to Yang Yang."

"Yang Yang took the ball and rushed forward, Alves was defending, but Yang Yang crossed to the front of the penalty area."

"Kaka follow and hit the door directly!"

...

Kaka's long-range shot was firmly blocked by Valdes and failed to pose a threat.

Valdes quickly got up from the ground, holding the ball in both hands, but Real did not retreat quickly.

Yang Yang and Zlatan Ibrahimovic both pushed to the outside of the penalty area and let Valdes tee off.

The game strategy formulated by Benitez before the game. He studied Barcelona's recent games and found that the team was always slow to enter the state in the first ten minutes, so he hoped that the team could start the game and try to get ahead. ball.

Yang Yang faced Valdez and slowly stepped back.

When he saw Valdes rushing out of the small penalty area, he clearly judged the Barcelona goalkeeper's intentions.

Hand toss, to the right.

Yang Yang quickly sprinted to the left, that is, Barcelona's right, and pushed directly towards Alves.

The Brazilian right back just stopped the ball, and before he could move forward, he saw that Yang Yang had already killed him.

Just in case, Alves immediately chose to return the goalkeeper.

Yang Yang just rushed close to Alves, quickly changed direction, rushed directly into the penalty area, and rushed towards Valdes.

Marcelo also moved forward quickly to fill the gap on the left after Yang Yang rushed into the penalty area, while also watching out for Alves.

Valdes stopped the ball and moved forward, without waiting for Yang Yang to approach, and immediately passed it to Pique. Under the interference of Ibrahimovic, Pique chose to pass to the unguarded Alves on the right.

The Brazilian right-back is the source of Barcelona's attack, and it is one of Barcelona's usual routines to dribble the ball forward.

But this time, a Marcelo was killed halfway.

The Brazilian left back was originally just to keep an eye on Alves, but he didn't expect Pique to suddenly pass such a ball. He directly accelerated and grabbed the ball before Alves.
