Chapter 058 League Points Record, 103 Points!
"Beep~Beep~Beep~~"
With the referee on duty Atkinson blowing two short and one long whistles, the second leg of the last semi-final of the 2014-2015 Champions League season ended at the Bernabeu Stadium, and finally Real Madrid defeated Juventus 4:2 at home and advanced to the Champions League final at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin, Germany with an aggregate score of 5:4.
Interestingly, the team that qualified for the final last night was also from Spain, which means that the history of the Champions League has ushered in a new charter, first the two La Liga teams reached the Champions League final for the second consecutive season, and then the Spanish national derby was staged on the stage of the Champions League final for the first time.
At this time, the Spanish media is particularly proud, and they can unscrupulously call La Liga the highest level league in the world.
Real Madrid fans who arrived at the Santiago Bernabeu were excited like children, dancing with their hands, venting their joy at the desperate situation of their team to qualify.
After the whole game was blown, Tang Zheng felt a slight pain in his right thigh, so he immediately followed the team doctor Olmo back to the locker room and relieved the injury after simple treatment.
The on-site director captured Tang Zheng's early return to the locker room, and the Yang 5 commentator He Wei's voice changed, returning to normal from his excited mood: "Tang Zheng walked to the player tunnel in advance, which means that his injury is not completely healed, but the fans sitting in front of the TV don't have to worry too much, Real Madrid will not risk using Tang Zheng when they have won the league championship, the Champions League final is still 21 days away, and the Copa del Rey final is half a month away, and the recuperation during this period will definitely recover......"
At the same time, most of the commentators in the commentary panel focused on Real Madrid's comeback to reach the Champions League final, with Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo, who scored twice, becoming the targets of their boasting.
Especially Tang Zheng, because it was Tang Zheng who sounded the horn of counterattack from Real Madrid!
His assist set up Cristiano Ronaldo's equaliser, then scored a goal himself to put Real Madrid in the lead, before slotting home a stunning direct free-kick just before stoppage time.
Tang Zheng's substitute appearance is not only reflected in the offensive end, but also makes a lot of contributions on the defensive end, so it is well-deserved to be named the best in the game.
However, looking at the huge LCD screen hanging and erected at the Bernabeu stadium, Cristiano Ronaldo frowned, in his cognition, the biggest credit for Real Madrid's ability to reverse Juventus and advance to the Champions League final for three consecutive seasons must be himself!
It is undeniable that Tang Zheng has made a great contribution, but compared with himself, he is still a little behind.
As everyone knows, the change in mentality has made Cristiano Ronaldo have subtle changes in his view of people and things......
In the regular press conference after the game, the visiting coach Allegri took the responsibility for the team's comeback and relieved the pressure on his players.
It is true that the team was in the most difficult of times because he himself was a little poor in command, and if Carlo Ancelotti had made a targeted tactical change when he was in the line-up, perhaps Cristiano Ronaldo's equaliser might not have happened.
The football field is also a champion and a loser, and Juventus, who lost, rarely paid attention to it in other countries except for the Italian media.
In addition to the relatively conventional reversal, what is more interesting is Tang Zheng's injury and Tang Zheng's free kick rivalry between Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo.
Ancelotti is an old fritter in football, so naturally he will not be fooled by reporters, he said very calmly: "Players of their level (Tang Zheng, Cristiano Ronaldo) are under a lot of pressure, so they all want to stand up in the most difficult time for the team, this is the desire of professional players to win, this is just a normal ability performance on the field, and it will not affect their off-field relationship." ”
Captain Casillas, who was a milestone in the game, also nodded his head: "Carlo is very right, Don and Cristiano Ronaldo have a very good relationship, and they just hugged in the dressing room to celebrate the victory. ”
In fact?
Cristiano Ronaldo, who was pasting the locker room, did not have any communication with Tang Zheng, who was recovering from physical therapy, even a look.
However, in order for the team not to be affected by public opinion before the Champions League final, Casillas has no choice.
He is 34 years old this year, and his condition is not as good as when he was at his peak, and the Real Madrid management led by President Florentino seems to have the intention of sending him away, so he has to lie for the possibility of the last Champions League title of Real Madrid's career.
Of course, everyone is a professional player and an adult, and it is impossible to affect the friendship for a certain detail of the game, after all, life and the game are two different things, and he believes that the relationship between Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo as adults will get back together over time.
The next day, headlines in sports media around the world revolved around Real Madrid's reversal of Juventus to qualify for this season's Champions League final.
The Champions League final also makes Real Madrid the first team to qualify for the Champions League final for three consecutive seasons since the Champions League was restructured, and they and their opponent Barcelona also created a new history in the Champions League, and the two teams will stage the first Spanish national derby in the history of the Champions League final at the Olympic Stadium in Berlin!
There were also some smaller media outlets that went the other way, reporting that Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo had become delicate in their relationship over a direct free-kick at the end of the game.
But as Real Madrid officials, coach Carlo Ancelotti and other players refuted the rumors, not many fans paid attention.
Because the fans focus on the game itself, the players' problems are just the spice of life for after-dinner chat.
In addition, Real Madrid's qualification for the Champions League final has become a fact, and the attention of Real Madrid fans has also shifted, with the last two rounds of the 2014-2015 La Liga season remaining, Real Madrid has 97 points, three points short of La Liga's single-season points record.
Real Madrid's next league opponents, Espanyol and Getafe, are hopeless of relegation in Europe, and the league is impossible to fight with Real Madrid, which means that Real Madrid is likely to win at least one win and draw in the remaining two rounds of the league, and then set a single-season league points record in La Liga!
For glory and record, no one will say no, and the same is true for Real Madrid players.
Over the weekend, Real Madrid travelled to Catalonia to challenge the Spaniards.
Tang Zheng, who returned from injury in midweek, did not travel to Barcelona with the team, but stayed in Madrid for physical rehabilitation in preparation for the Copa del Rey and Champions League finals in Spain at the end of the season.
After all, the league championship has already settled, and there is no need for Real Madrid to risk using Tang Zheng for the sake of the so-called points record.
Although it is said that the Spaniards have no hope of relegation in Europe, the substitutes and young players will inevitably not go all out in order to increase their status in the eyes of the manager.
Obviously, the Copa del Rey and Champions League are more important than the so-called league points record!
Although in the 37th round of the 2014-2015 La Liga season at the Cornella El Prat Stadium, the visiting Real Madrid made a large number of changes.
Prior to that, the home team Espanyol lined up to welcome the new league champions, Real Madrid, as is customary in La Liga.
In the end, thanks to the goals of Isco and substitutes Cristiano Ronaldo and Benzema, they beat Espanyol 3-1 away.
With this victory, Real Madrid won 32 wins, 4 draws and 1 loss in the 37 rounds of La Liga in the 2014-2015 season, thus reaching an astonishing 100 points, thus equaling the single-season league points record held by Real Madrid and Barcelona in the 2011-2012 and 2012-2013 seasons.
Unlike Real Madrid itself and Barcelona's record of 100 points in the league, Real Madrid still has the last round of the league this season, and it is a home game, facing Getafe, who has already completed the task of relegation.
According to media predictions, Real Madrid's home win over Getafe is a sure thing.
Counting 10,000 steps back, even if it draws at home, Real Madrid can still get a point, thus creating a new league single-season points record!
※※※
The media and fans are concerned about whether Real Madrid will set a new single-season points record in La Liga, but Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti is in a certain amount of trouble, because the last thing he wants to see happens.
Since the end of the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals, Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo have not communicated with each other.
During this time, the media also speculated that Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo would often interact on Twitter since the end of the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals, but so far there has been no interaction.
Real Madrid fans are more worried about this, this season's Real Madrid can tie the La Liga single-season record in the past 37 rounds of the league is directly related to the concerted efforts of Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo, and even some professional football institutions speculate that if Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo did not have the unhappiness at the beginning of the season last season, Real Madrid is very likely to set a new single-season league points record last season and win the league championship last season.
If there is a conflict between Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo, it will be Real Madrid's results that will be affected first.
The league title is already in hand, but they are worried about the next two consecutive meetings with Barcelona - the Copa del Rey final and the Champions League final.
After a season of hard work, it would be a huge blow to anyone to miss out on the title at the last minute because of discord between the players.
In fact, Tang Zheng wanted to resume his previous nonsense with Cristiano Ronaldo, but he thought that Cristiano Ronaldo had reversed his word, and he was at fault first, and he should take the initiative to admit his mistake.
Cristiano Ronaldo is not very satisfied with Tang Zheng's attitude, he feels that he is the team's top scorer, the first star, and it is understandable for him to ask for a free kick, Tang Zheng should support himself instead of the right to take a free kick.
In addition, it has to be mentioned that the relationship between Modric and Toni Kroos and Cristiano Ronaldo was also affected by the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals, which is obviously a lot cooler than the relationship in the past.
However, Modric and Toni Kroos do not regret it, and aside from the private relationship, Tang Zheng, who is in his playing years, is more 'valuable'.
Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo are both adults, and their problems can only be solved by themselves.
Life needs to go on, and so does the game, with the final round of the 2014-2015 league season at the Santiago Bernabeu being a big fixture for fans around the world, with Real Madrid setting a new league single-season points record if they don't lose at home to Getafe.
Of course, the final round of the 2014-2015 La Liga season is not only whether Real Madrid can set a new single-season points record to attract the attention of fans, such as the Champions League, Europa League seats, and relegation are full of highlights.
Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are in early confirmation of their place in next season's Champions League, with the final play-off spot between Valencia and Sevilla set one point separating each other.
If the positions remain unchanged in the final round, it will be Valencia who will qualify for next season's Champions League play-offs, while Sevilla will play in the Europa League.
As for relegation, in addition to Córdoba's early relegation, Granada, Almeria, Íbara and Deportivo La Coruna all have relegation strikers, so the final round of the 2014-2015 La Liga season is full of highlights.
Almeria vs Valencia, Malaga vs Sevilla, Barcelona vs Deportivo La Coruna, Granada vs Atletico Madrid, Eibar vs Córdoba and Real Madrid vs Getafe.
After 90 minutes of fierce battle, Almeria lost 2-3 at home to Valencia, and while Valencia retained their qualification for next season's Champions League play-offs, the losing Almeria will become another directly relegated La Liga team.
Granada and Deportivo La Coruna drew with Atletico Madrid and Barcelona respectively and managed to stay in La Liga, even if Eibar beat early-relegated Cordoba 3-0 in the last round to tie Granada and Deportivo La Coruna in points, but they have to play an additional two-legged play-off against this season's La Liga promotion play-off team to determine whether they can stay in next season's La Liga.
The much-watched Real Madrid vs Getafe final round of the league ended up 7-3, with the home team Real Madrid winning a big victory, with Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo both scoring hat-tricks.
In the 2014-2015 La Liga season, Real Madrid's points in La Liga also went from 100 points to an astonishing 103 points, thus successfully setting a new single-season league points record!
The 2014-2015 Spanish Copa del Rey final was played seven days after the end of the 2014-2015 La Liga season, while the 2014-2015 Champions League final was played seven days after the Copa del Rey final.
Barcelona is worried, the recovering form of Tang Zheng has been reflected in the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals, and now that Benzema and Cristiano Ronaldo are in such good form, then the Copa del Rey final and the Champions League final are likely to face Real Madrid's most terrifying attacking group......
