Chapter 308: The drizzle fights Real Madrid
Puyol is really a brick of the revolution, where it needs to be moved. Coffee and Ade were both unavailable due to minor injuries, and Pep Guardiola did not want to risk the second-team youngsters, with the Barcelona captain starting at left wing-back today.
This is Aunt Pu's 100th Champions League game, in fact, it is not very worthy of boasting. As the top two in the Spanish Super League, Barcelona basically occupies the Champions Cup place in La Liga every year, and the 33-year-old Aunt Pu has been in the first team for 12 years, and on average, she looks like a player every year.
There are only six games in the group stage, and the Champions Cup has not been reformed since Aunt Pu played the main force in the first few years, and there are six games in the second stage of the group stage. Let's look at Zhuo Yang, today is his 61st Champions League game, and he has only played at the top for seven years, and there are still two seasons in those seven years that he did not participate in the Champions League because of team relations.
This also shows that Barcelona's results in the previous Champions Cup are most of the time inconsistent with their status as giants, and only one Champions League trophy in history is also telling, and Zhuo Yang has three.
In 06 and 09, Barcelona reached the Champions League final twice, and was twice beaten by Zhuo Yang, if he hadn't been born, Barcelona would never have been so shabby in this honor. Their arch-rivals, Real Madrid, have won nine Champions League trophies so far, ranking first in the world.
Even if you put aside the five consecutive championships in ancient times, the other four can throw Barcelona so that you can't even see the taillights. Therefore, no matter how much Real Madrid is defeated in the league, Barcelona will not dare to talk about the Champions Cup with Real Madrid, so as not to rub his face on the ground.
The two teams met in the semi-finals of the Champions League this season, and Barcelona took the lead in the first leg with the prestige of the domestic double triple title, and it was a hell of a genius to let Real Madrid escape at the Camp Nou.
In this game, Barcelona except for Mascherano who played at central defender and Pique partnered, Puyol went to the left back, and the other positions were full of main players, Zomehuhabaibu, Dan Erye and Valdés.
In addition to the manpower shortage of the backline, Barcelona's biggest hidden danger in this game is the goalkeeper. Pinto Sr. suspended UEFA from the tournament and the 22-year-old Ruben Mino, who was brought up to be the only substitute behind Valdés.
Although Ruben Mino's is called 'Little Valdés', in fact, this is his own family's self-congratulatory name, his comprehensive strength is mediocre, not to mention the Champions Cup experience, La Liga experience is not available, Valdés has to have a mistake, it is really hanging.
Real Madrid are even more miserable, as their manager Jose Mourinho was sent off in his last game and can only stay in the hotel and watch TV. It's not that UEFA won't let him come to the stage, and Mu Madman himself won't come.
I can't help when I come, I have to listen to the boos at Camp Nou, and if I am eliminated, I have to endure watching the smug faces of the Barcelona people, and I only come after eating too much.
With Sergio Ramos tired, Pepe and Khedira with a leg injury, and a big score down, Real Madrid lined up 4-2-3-1 today. The two midfielders Detu and Alonso, in front of them are lined up with Cristiano Ronaldo, Mesut Ozil and Di Maria, and in front of them is Gonzalo Higuain, who has returned from injury.
Marcelo was sad, and the last defeat of Real Madrid started when he was easily shaken down by Afella. Although the assist ability is getting stronger and stronger, Marcelo's clumsy and easily out of position defense is driving Mourinho more and more.
According to well-informed sources, after the 2-0 defeat to Barcelona at the Bernabeu in the last game, manager Jose Mourinho had a confidential conversation with president Florentino. The exact content of the conversation is unknown, but the next day Galeries Lafayette reaffirmed his trust in Mu Shuai in the media.
Not only did Mourinho have no worries about next season, but Lafayette also personally contacted the Portuguese club Benfica to inquire about the transfer possibility of 22-year-old left-back Fabio Coentrão.
Coentrão was selected as one of the top 10 rising stars in last year's World Cup, and is a rare pearl in the defender market of more than Wolves in the past two years, and he and Mourinho and Cristiano Ronaldo are all customers under Mendes, and Lafayette's move is clearly out of Mourinho's wishes.
There's no way, Real Madrid has tossed a basket of famous coaches over the years, and in seven years, a full ten, like a marquee, and then opened Mourinho, looking at the universe, who else dares to take over immediately? And Lafayette also ate the losses of the head coach over the years, so he simply gave Mu Shuai another year.
As for what Mu Shuai promised and asked Lafayette in private, outsiders are not clear.
Belgian referee Debrekri blew the whistle and the second leg of the Champions League semi-final between Barcelona and Real Madrid kicked off in the drizzle at Camp Nou.
Barcelona is a sunny city, the rain is relatively scarce, and the Barcelona players are naturally not as 100% adapted to playing on sunny days, except for Zhuo Yang, Milan has more rainy days than Barcelona in those three years.
Real Madrid may be even more uncomfortable, because of all the big cities in Spain, Madrid ranks first with 310 sunny days/year, and they are more afraid of rain than Barcelona.
Of course, modern professional clubs can imitate various scenes under various turf during training, and water-soaked turf is nothing, but the face is rainy, the nose and mouth are full of water, which is not easy to imitate in advance.
Before the first five minutes, the drizzle gradually turned into a light rain, the rain turned into raindrops, and a small amount of water began to appear on the course. Carvalho's tackle was completely uncontrollable, and after hanging Zhuo Yang, he also rushed out of the field in a water truck.
Returning from the sidelines, he was greeted with the first yellow card of the game.
In the 11th minute, the brave and tenacious Carvalho overturned Boss Mei in the midfield, and Zhuo Yang excitedly commanded the referee: "Yellow him, yellow him!" Two yellows turn into one red. ”
Angry that Carvalho drank the rain, Mr. de Breclery frowned and ignored Zhuo Yang.
The referee is also under great pressure, and Real Madrid denounced the referee's unfairness in the media on a large scale after the last game, and UEFA was screaming all over the world. There was a red card at the beginning today, and Mr. Blakery was afraid that he would not be able to hold it after the game.
So, in the 18th minute, Zhuo Yang took a bow in the rain, and the ball hit Carvalho's open arm, outside the penalty area. The referee Breckle still did not give a yellow card, but only gave Barcelona a free kick.
In the 43rd minute, Carvalho tackled Zhuo Yang again, but he was still pardoned by the referee, and the person who vomited in anger became Zhuo Yang.
The first half was not spectacular, with Barcelona dominating and scoring seven shots, while Real Madrid did not have one. Of Barcelona's seven shots on goal, Zhuo 3, 2 Dan, 1 white 1, Messi, like Ronaldo, did not shoot on goal.
Ronaldo has no goal to shoot, and Boss Mei doesn't shoot when he has a goal, and passes the ball to Zhuo Yang wholeheartedly, serving him like an ancestor.
The last 20 minutes of the last game against Real Sociedad were like that, and with these 45 minutes, by this point, smart people can already see some clues.
