The first team training ground at the Barcelona training base.

The Barcelona stars are working on a small area of attack and defence, and their training feels very relaxed, as if it is a bit of a game, and the players on the attacking side do not run much, but only constantly pass the ball, and only when there are very good opportunities, can they come to the next wave of sprints.

This.

Messi strolled as if he was shopping, and after receiving a pass on the edge of the penalty area, he accelerated violently to shake off the defense and kicked the ball into the goal.

"Well done, Leo!"

"This ball is great!"

"The change of direction just now accelerated, and I didn't react at all......"

Teammates applauded.

Messi smiled as he looked at the football in the goal, but he quickly restrained his smile, his expression became serious again, and he continued to devote himself to training and confrontation.

He felt the pressure.

The Spanish national derby is coming, and Messi is not concerned about Real Madrid, but about the two stars of the opposing team-

Zhen Shaolong.

C-Ronaldo.

Barcelona and Newcastle United met three times last season and were almost crushed by each other, and they didn't have a good way to do it at all, because Zhen Shaolong was too good and dominated the game with goals.

Zhen Shaolong has become a boulder in Messi's heart, he has been constantly trying to catch up with the other party, but whenever he thinks of the other party's amazing performance, Messi has a feeling of 'unable to do it'.

In the current La Liga arena, will the opponent appear in the squad of Real Madrid, will they still perform so amazingly?

Messi doesn't know.

The other is Cristiano Ronaldo.

Compared with Zhen Shaolong, C-Ronaldo is still in the 'understandable' category, the media likes to compare C-Ronaldo and Messi together, because the performance of the two gives people the same feeling, but Messi feels that the other party should not be able to catch up with him, not only because of his personal ability, but also because the other party has just transferred to Real Madrid, the new season has just begun, and it will take time to run in if you want to have a good performance.

In addition to the opposing team's two stars, Messi will also consider the overall win.

"Beat Real Madrid twice last season, can you still win now?" Messi is full of uncertainty in his heart, and the other Barcelona players have similar ideas, they are a little at a loss for the game, the most important thing is that Zhen Shaolong has brought them too much pressure, and the opponent is still performing amazingly in La Liga, scoring eight goals in three rounds of league games, looking at the data feels incredible.

Meantime.

Barcelona coach Pep Guardiola was standing on the sidelines, watching the players play against each other, writing and drawing in a notebook with a frowning brow proving that he was thinking seriously and that he was pondering his strategy with Real Madrid.

In fact, Barcelona does not have to think carefully about the issue of tactical play.

Barcelona have a well-developed tactical system, and the manager's responsibility to deal with the game is more to arrange the squad and remind the players to pay attention to some details, but unlike the Real Madrid game, Barcelona must face opponents who have left a shadow on the team.

Zhen Shaolong!

Pep Guardiola has a headache at the thought of the name, and he has to do some extra tactical work against Real Madrid.

He's thinking about defense.

Real Madrid's squad is really strong.

Although the Catalan media says that it is 'not weaker than Barcelona', Real Madrid, which has Zhen Shaolong, C-Ronaldo and Kaka, must have more squad strength than Barcelona, and a Zhen Shaolong can top the two strikers of Barcelona, and the efficiency is even much higher.

Real Madrid's weaknesses are also obvious, which lies in the somewhat chaotic tactical system and the coordination problems caused by the team's major changes.

The large number of top stars is also a problem.

Guardiola carefully watched Real Madrid's warm-up matches and the previous leagues, and found that Zhen Shaolong, Kaka and C-Ronaldo have no tacit understanding with each other at all, and even subconsciously compete for the ball in the frontcourt, and they can't give full play to the power of stars and stars at all.

The Madrid media have been preaching that "Zhen Shaolong, Kaka and Cristiano Ronaldo will become the most terrifying trident." ”

In fact.

So far, let alone a 'trident', not even a 'two-pentent' can be formed, and the cooperation between them is a tragedy.

"This is a place where you can take advantage of it."

"C-Ronaldo and Zhen Shaolong have no tacit understanding, what they need to focus on is the pass from the middle and the left side."

"As long as Zhen Shaolong's point can be blocked, the threat brought by Real Madrid's frontcourt will be greatly reduced, and their defense line is ......" Guardiola still knows the Real Madrid defense and is very confident that Barcelona will complete the goal.

The last time Barcelona played Real Madrid was at the Santiago Bernabeu in early May, where Barcelona scored six goals to beat Real Madrid 6-2.

Ninety minutes, six goals.

This is a testament to Barcelona's attacking prowess, and to some extent illustrates Real Madrid's defensive problems, which did not make major changes to the defensive line in the summer transfer.

So breaking down shouldn't be a problem.

Pep Guardiola took a deep breath and continued to frown and think, knowing that the key to the game was the constraints of the opposing team's top stars.

Zhen Shaolong.

C-Ronaldo.

These two top stars do not cooperate and have a tacit understanding, which is where they can be used, "Maybe you can give Cristiano Ronaldo more space to play, and the extra defense can be placed in front of the goal." ”

Guardiola didn't consider Kaka because Kaka has been injured, three league games and one Champions League at the beginning of the season, Kaka only had one appearance, and his physical condition has obviously not recovered, even if he plays, it is difficult to make a difference.

Kaka has recovered.

After the third round of La Liga, Kaka returned to the team for training the next day, and his state was still recovering.

Manuel Pellegrini spoke to Kaka individually and hoped that he would slowly adjust to his condition and find the position that suits him best.

In fact.

The coaching staff had some headaches with Kaka's arrangement.

In the latest 4231 formation, Kaka has a good position, but the partnership with C-Ronaldo is a problem, without C-Ronaldo, you can consider letting Kaka play the real core forward, otherwise it is difficult to guarantee the effect of the two playing together.

In the 442 formation, Kaka's position is awkward.

Kaka can play as a second striker or as a midfielder, but the two positions are a little different from his positioning, and the same position is very competitive, such as Raul, Higuain on the front line, and even C-Ronaldo is also considering playing as a striker, and there are more suitable Guti, Alonso and others in the forward.

Even if Kaka is the third most expensive player in the team and one of the world's top superstars, he will have to rely on performance to compete for a position.

Real Madrid's training is still intense.

Most of the newcomers see the game as a 'vs. Barcelona' match, but the veterans, especially those from the Spanish league, know that the game is very important.

Real Madrid lost twice to Barcelona last season, and the second 2-6 defeat became a historical shame - Barcelona have never scored six goals at the Bernabeu in the 100-year history of the Spanish national derby!

Although Real Madrid also scored two, just four goals, it will always be Barcelona who scored six goals at the Bernabeu, not what the difference was in the game.

So Real Madrid must win against Barcelona.

The significance of the Spanish national derby is not only the duel of the giants, in fact, most of the hot derbies in the world have historical sources and other influences, the competition between Real Madrid and Barcelona is not only the victory or defeat of a football match, but also covers many complex factors such as nationality and culture, and the short 90-minute game integrates too many factors outside of football and even sports.

As Spain's largest port city and the capital of Catalonia, Barcelona has deep contradictions with the Spanish authorities on many political issues, and the victory over the capital Madrid has become an urgent psychological need for many Catalans. Every collision between the two teams has become a precious memory in the hearts of fans.

In the history of the Spanish national derby, two teams have won and lost each other, and each other has won by a large score, but it is rare that the victory has been monopolized by one team for a long time, especially in the past thirty or forty years, even if one team has a slightly worse result, there will be no suspense in the game.

There seemed to be signs of Barcelona dominating the win at the start of last season, as there was no suspense in the two games against Real Madrid.

This is unacceptable to Real Madrid.

Now that the 'Galaxy Phase II' has restarted, Real Madrid, including the club, the fans and even the supporting media, want Real Madrid to beat Barcelona and re-maintain the majesty of football in the Spanish capital.

Real Madrid also had all kinds of pressure.

The pressure on manager Manuel Pellegrini was the greatest, with president Florentino giving only a few words of 'order' for the game, "Must win!" ”

It's a game that is about the club's honours, and winning the game makes everything smooth, and losing the game makes everything difficult, and even the position becomes very precarious.

Manuel Pellegrini, like Pep Guardiola, is under a lot of pressure, with Pep Guardiola's pressure on Real Madrid's top superstars and Pellegrini on Barcelona as a whole.

Now that the two sides are playing, it seems that Real Madrid have the advantage in terms of squad strength, but Pellegrini knows that it will be very difficult for Real Madrid to win.

The problem for Real Madrid is tactical coordination.

Real Madrid does not yet have a mature tactical system, and in the matchup of top giants, a mature tactical system is more important than the ability of the stars.

To put it simply, the whole is higher than the individual.

In fact, you can use the game as an auxiliary explanation, such as playing the more popular "Glory of Kings" mobile game, the low-end game god can play at will, with super personal skills, the probability of leading the team to win is very large.

This is the supremacy of the individual over the whole.

Even if the other teammates are out of the sky, as long as there is a god who shows off the operation, he can still achieve the final victory.

Opposite.

When it comes to the top high-end game, the individual advantage is greatly weakened, and every player in each professional team is a god, but they need a tactical coach to arrange tactics for the whole.

At this time, the advantages of individuals are greatly weakened, and even if a single player has an excellent level, it is difficult to beat two opponents at a time.

The importance of tactics has been raised to a higher level.

Real Madrid's disadvantage lies in the tactical coordination, in the absence of a mature tactical system, relying on simple tactics and star play, it is difficult to beat the overall strong Barcelona.

Even if the star of the team can rely on his individual ability to score one or two goals, it may be easier for the opponent to score.

Pellegrini was so sad that he even walked to the sidelines to watch the training ground carefully, and when he found that C-Ronaldo gave Zhen Shaolong very few passes, he also said to C-Ronaldo seriously, "When Zhen has a gap, you must pass the ball as soon as possible." ”

"You have to keep an eye on Zhen's position at all times!"

"You need to work more fluently, and it's better to develop some tacit ......"

C-Ronaldo's reaction was--

Cold hum!

Turn around and walk away!

It is definitely wrong for a player to give the coach a face, and C-Ronaldo also knows that he shouldn't do it, but he is very disgusted with Pellegrini's statement, he has no contradiction with Zhen Shaolong, but he has his own pride in his heart.

For example, the opportunity just now.

C-Ronaldo broke through the opponent's defense with the ball, and the opponent sent someone in the middle to defend, Zhen Shaolong's space was not very good, and the pass was likely to be stealed by the opponent in the past, and he could completely break through individually and look for opportunities to complete the shot.

"Passing?"

"What if I get snatched up?"

"And I think I'm more likely to dribble the ball myself and score goals on my own. That's my habit, my style! ”

"Zhen is indeed very good, but I'm not bad either, I'm not his vassal, I don't need to take the initiative to make balls for him!"

"When it came to the competition, I still insisted on ......"

Other teammates also understand C-Ronaldo, Granero, Diarra are a minority after all, in addition, in the case just now, passing to Zhen Shaolong may not be able to catch up with the ball himself, the tacit understanding is not enforced, but playing together for a long time, and there is enough understanding between each other to produce it step by step.

"It's just that in the game, will C-Ronaldo deliberately not pass the ball to Zhen Shaolong?"

Pellegrini reflected on the requirements for C-Ronaldo, and knew that he was a little too anxious, but C-Ronaldo's attitude was not a good phenomenon, especially before the Spanish national derby, because the mentality affected the game was not good.

He was a little worried.

The rest of the coaching staff was a little worried.

Zhen Shaolong doesn't care whether C-Ronaldo passes the ball, he is used to being the kind of role that 'disappears' on the field, and he scores the ball when he finds a good opportunity to play, and he doesn't need his teammates to play the ball for a long time.

But the system seems to care.

"Hint: A new system task is triggered.

Many people think that your chemistry with Cristiano Ronaldo will be a key factor in the game, and you need to show your understanding with Cristiano Ronaldo in the game and lead Real Madrid to beat Barcelona.

(During the mission, the designated teammate C-Ronaldo gains the 'Attached' effect.)

C-Ronaldo will be your minion, and his ball will have the following effects -

1. Take the initiative to pass the ball to you, and get the correction of "Best Route of the Target" by 10 degrees, and the correction of "Best Power" by 50%.

2. When the ball hits the opposing player and the goal frame, the rebound will be corrected 30 degrees in your direction.

3. When the ball is played without a specified target, the football will force a correction of 10 degrees to your position. ）

Mission Objectives: 1, C-Ronaldo assists to score two or more goals.

2. Lead Real Madrid to defeat Barcelona by three or more goals.

Reward: Increases STR by a bit. ”
