Chapter 968

October 2, at the Cornea Stadium in Barcelona.

In the seventh round of La Liga, Real Madrid challenged Espanyol away.

Although it was an away game, Real Madrid played a strong offensive at the beginning, and in the 17th minute, in a counterattack, Yang Yang took David Silva straight, and dribbled the ball from the left to force a breakthrough and then pass diagonally. Ibrahimovic scored in front of the goal, opening the scoring for Real Madrid.

The Spaniard then strengthened his defense, especially in terms of physical confrontation.

Although they and Barcelona are mortal enemies in the same city, they still have the same attitude when facing the great enemy of Real Madrid.

Real Madrid did not score again until the second half. After Maicon received a pass from Robben on the right, he dribbled the ball to the outside of the penalty area and made a direct pass. Ibrahimovic volleyed the far corner from the right side of the penalty area and entered the net, 2-0.

Yang Yang was closely guarded by the Spaniard throughout the game, but he used his pulling to attract defensive attention and create more chances for his teammates.

In the 82nd minute, Yang Yang took the ball from the left and faced the defender Flynn one-on-one. After a light fake action, he suddenly spiked the ball and forced a breakthrough. Flynn couldn't stop it at all. Seeing Yang Yang dribbling the ball into the penalty area , a low pass to the back point, and Robben who followed up easily pushed the shot from the near corner, three to zero.

In the 89th minute, after the Spaniard made a steal in the penalty area, he was pressed by Real Madrid under high pressure, and there was a mistake in the return pass.

In the end, Real Madrid beat Espanyol 4-0 with Ibrahimovic's hat-trick.

...

When Real Madrid expedition to Espanyol, Barcelona also went out to challenge Sporting Gijon away.

The final result was that in the 11th minute, Barcelona scored the only goal from left-back Adriano, but the price paid was the injury of Abidal, who had performed well in the central defender position recently.

This is Barcelona's sixth casualty in recent times.

After the game, neither the Catalan media nor the media close to Real Madrid said anything about the game process, but focused on the injury crisis faced by Barcelona.

Abidal's injury is a strained biceps femoris in his right leg. It is expected that he will be out of action for a week or ten days. This is not serious, but he is the seventh injured in Barcelona so far this season, and he is also the seventh injured in the past two years. The fifth casualty in 13 days.

But these are not problems. The key to the problem is that the injuries of these injured people in Barcelona all come from the same kind of injury, that is, muscle strain.

The winger Sanchez, who has just joined Barcelona, ​​has a strained right biceps femoral muscle and has been out of action for eight weeks; Iniesta has a left biceps femoral strain and has been out of action for four weeks; Afele has ruptured the anterior cruciate ligament of his left knee during training , out for six months; Cesc Fabregas strained his right biceps femoris in training and was out for three weeks.

Now, add an Abidal.

Everyone knows that most of the muscle injuries come from fatigue operations, and Barcelona is aiming to fight in the third line this season, and the task of the game is very heavy, but Guardiola's first-team lineup is not ample.

The ability of Barcelona's team doctor Pruna has been questioned, but he defended himself by saying, "In a club with such a heavy task as Barcelona, ​​the current injury situation is absolutely within the normal range."

Pruna appealed to everyone not to make a fuss and said that the work of the team's medical team has been carried out very well.

Outside media speculated that Barcelona's large-scale injuries were related to the team's summer training. Pruna denied it, but he did not come up with a convincing statement. Barcelona President Roselle also said that injuries themselves are part of football. It also denied that the team's summer training affected the players, which in turn caused widespread injuries.

Pruna also specifically took out UEFA research data showing that each team has 20 to 25 injuries every season, half of which are related to bicep injuries. within the normal range.

But soon, the Catalan media asked back, six cases in two months may not be outrageous, but four cases in 23 days in a row have caused the first team to be urgently employed. Is this not enough to attract attention?

Another very interesting phenomenon is that several players who were absent from the team's summer training did not suffer injuries. For example, Messi, he is the most vulnerable to being violated by opponents, but this time he successfully blocked the injury. tide.

Barcelona's large-scale injury did not bring any substantial benefits to Real Madrid, but if you look at the overall situation, if the opponent encounters such a large-scale injury, it will undoubtedly make Barcelona make mistakes in the next schedule. Maybe even drop points in a row, that's Real Madrid's best chance.

The problems that occurred in Barcelona's summer training are also worthy of Real Madrid's vigilance.

…………

After the seventh round of La Liga, the national team's two-week match day ushered in.

Yang Yang bid farewell to his wife and children and returned to China alone.

On October 6, the national team ushered in a warm-up match. China defeated the UAE 2-1, with Sun Xiang and Gao Lin scoring a goal each.

Five days later, the Chinese team ushered in the third opponent of the World Cup qualifiers at home, and successfully defeated Iraq 1-0. Yang Yang scored a goal at a critical moment, helping the Chinese team to achieve three consecutive victories in the group.

It can be said that after winning Iraq, the Chinese team basically stepped into the top ten with one foot.

...

On the evening of October 15th, the Bernabeu Stadium.

In the eighth round of La Liga, Real Madrid host Real Betis.

Due to the long journey, Yang Yang did not appear in the starting lineup for this game, but in the first half, Real Madrid still had no points and played very difficult.

This is also a problem faced by many international teams. Real Betis has been recharged after two weeks, but Real Madrid's internationals are running back and forth, and some even travel thousands of kilometers.

At halftime, the Real Madrid fans in the stands were already shouting Yang Yang's name.

At the beginning of the second half, Ancelotti replaced Yang Yang.

As a result, thirty-six seconds later, Marcelo made a long pass, Yang Yang plugged in at a high speed, broke into the penalty area and made a cross from the left rib. Ibrahimovic easily pushed the empty goal from the edge of the small penalty area and succeeded, 1-0.

In the fifty-ninth minute, Yang Yang took the ball from the left again. One-on-two, he just used his personal ability. Under the double-team of two defenders, he took the ball out from the sideline and successfully passed it low to the middle. Twisted shot near the ball point to score, 2-0.

In the 69th minute, Real Madrid made a long pass to the penalty area. The Real Betis defender made a header to make a clearance. Yang Yang broke into the penalty area. Facing the double-team of three defenders, he decisively chose a cross. Robben scored a volley from 12 meters. Three to zero.

Although no goal was scored, the entire Bernabeu stadium was shouting Yang Yang's name.

As the most football-savvy fans in the world, Real Madrid fans know better than anyone the contribution Yang Yang has brought to this team.

They can't even imagine what Real Madrid would be like without Yang Yang?

Will Real Madrid still be Real Madrid?

Subsequently, Ibrahimovic received assists from Robben in the 70th and 73rd minutes and scored two consecutive goals to help Real Madrid expand the score to 5-0, and the Swedish center also staged a hat in two consecutive games. Trick, the number of goals surpassed Yang Yang.

Ibrahimovic is also very clear in his heart that Yang Yang is deliberately creating him.

Because this season, he has been negotiating a contract extension with Real Madrid, but it has never been reached, and the continuous goals can undoubtedly greatly enhance his negotiating chips.

...

In the stands of the Real Madrid president, Florentino, Manuel Redondo and Valdano were also watching the game.

Zidane served as an assistant to Ancelotti and appeared in the coaching bench of the home team, but it seemed that he was not a master of his own accord. From time to time, he would walk out of the coaching bench and shout something towards the players on the pitch.

This makes Florentino and others very happy, because Real Madrid is very clear that Zidane will become Real Madrid's head coach sooner or later. This is the long-cherished wish of Real Madrid's president. The players are all star teams of superstars, Zidane is the head coach he personally selected, and Yang Yang is his humerus core.

"Ibrahimovic has two hat-tricks in a row, and Yang Yang has assisted five times in the last two games." Florentino said this and couldn't help but smile, "He now has more assists than goals. ."

Manuel Redondo nodded and said: "Eight goals and nine assists. The Champions League is a pass and a shot."

"He's helping his good brother." Florentino laughed.

He has no objection to Yang Yang's approach, and even appreciates it, because it means that Yang Yang is a person who attaches great importance to feelings. Such a superstar is undoubtedly the most reassuring, as long as you treat him well and treat him sincerely He, then he will pay you back a thousandfold and fight for you unconditionally.

The next stage of the Real Madrid coaching seat belongs to Zidane, and maybe one day in the future, it will belong to Yang Yang.

"It is estimated that it is not only a factor in this regard." Valdano took over, "You found out, Messi scored twice in this game. He has scored ten goals so far, but There were few assists, and Yang Yang, on the other hand, scored eight goals and assisted nine times."

How smart people Florentino and Redondo are, I understand it as soon as they hear it.

"You mean, the two are competing?" Florentino asked with a laugh.

"Eight and nine are inseparable. Last season, Messi had more assists and fewer goals, while Yang Yang, on the contrary, scored more goals but less assists, so this season they turned the other way, Yang Yang began to focus on assists, and Messi It's about scoring goals." Valdano couldn't help laughing.

It is really a blessing to be able to see two such top superstars competing at the same time.

Yang Yang and Messi, the unparalleled pair of arrogances, are even more exciting than Cruyff fighting Beckenbauer, because Yang Yang and Messi are both attackers, and although Beckenbauer is all-around, it is not a score. hand.

Compared with goals and assists, both Yang Yang and Messi are the kind of people who don't accept failure. They both have the genes of competitiveness in their bones. It is estimated that the two of them still have both!

Just Ibrahimovic...
