After Christmas, Real Madrid began to regroup and immediately rushed to Dubai in the Middle East for training.

In Dubai, Real Madrid played a warm-up match, but the main players, including Yang Yang and Suarez, did not play, and finally lost to AC Milan 2-4, ending the final game of 2014 with a loss.

But everyone knows that Real Madrid doesn't pay attention to this game at all, purely for the three million euros.

In the second half of the next season, Real Madrid's competition pressure is still very high, first the Copa del Rey and the league, then the Champions League rekindled, and there is a league postponed because of the Club World Cup, which makes Real Madrid's schedule extremely dense, so the short-term training camp during the winter break has become very important.

In such an important, even race-by-time training camp, how could Carlo Ancelotti do his best to play a warm-up match?

Not only does Real Madrid not pay attention to it, but neither does the media and fans.

On the contrary, at the end of 2014, major media outlets have launched the 2014 annual awards, which have successfully attracted the attention of media and fans around the world.

First up was the final issue of 2014 from World Football, a long-established British football magazine, which voted for Player of the Year, Team of the Year and Manager of the Year.

The selection process is to invite 100 authoritative journalists from all over the world to select the top 10 of the year in their minds, and then give a ranking, from first to tenth, respectively, giving 10 to 1 points.

Yang Yang won the Player of the Year with an absolute advantage, and his total points reached an astonishing 996 points, that is to say, among the 100 authoritative reporters, only four people did not award the first place to Yang Yang, and the other 96 people, without exception, put Yang Yang in the first place.

This is an absolutely dominant scoring statistic, and it also made [World Football] say in the final comment that Yang Yang is the Person of the Year in World Football in 2014 and one of the greatest players in the history of world football.

But unfortunately, in the Player of the Year and Manager of the Year, Real Madrid and the Chinese national team both lost to Germany, and Ancelotti also lost to Loew in the managerial competition.

In addition to [World Football], the Spanish Marca newspaper is also conducting an annual selection, Yang Yang won a number of awards, among which the most important person of the year was also included in Yang Yang's bag, Marca commented, Yang Yang is at the peak of his career, and no one in today's football can beat him.

In addition to Marca, Spain's Ace, El País, France's team, Germany's Bild, and the British Times...... At the end of each year, major media outlets throughout Europe and around the world select the Player of the Year.

If in previous years, Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo were more or less able to pose some threats and challenges to Yang Yang, then this year, such threats and challenges are almost zero.

Almost everyone believes that Yang Yang is the best and most outstanding player in the whole of 2014.

There are many awards from all over the world, and Yang Yang cannot participate in them all, and not even all the awards can come to Madrid to present awards to Yang Yang, and only authoritative media from various countries can apply for such an opportunity.

Among them, Yang Yang attaches great importance to the authoritative media from the motherland and the authoritative media from other Asian countries, because Asia is his base camp, especially the motherland.

When accepting the award from the authoritative domestic media, he said that he regretted that he could not return to China to receive the award, and he also regretted that he could not return to China to participate in the Asian Cup, and he hoped that the Chinese team could work hard to play their level in the next Asian Cup competition.

A number of authoritative media from the United States flew directly to Dubai to present awards to Yang Yang as early as when Real Madrid was training in Dubai, which will undoubtedly further enhance Yang Yang's influence in North America.

…………

Time has passed 2014 and entered 2015.

After Real Madrid returned to Madrid, they immediately ushered in the 17th round of La Liga, away to Valencia.

Although Real Madrid scored a goal in the 14th minute to give Real Madrid the lead, the performance of Real Madrid throughout the game was unsatisfactory and seriously out of form.

The reason is also very simple, many main players, including Yang Yang, did not appear in this game.

In the end, in the second half, Valencia first equalized the score with a goal from Barragán, and in the 65th minute, Otamendi scored with a header from a corner kick to put the score back again.

It's hard to accept that both of Valencia's goals came from the planning and assists of former Real Madrid player Parejo.

1-2, Real Madrid finally returned away from home, and the winning streak was completely ended.

But Real Madrid simply didn't have time to pause and reflect, as the first leg of the Copa del Rey last-16 knockout rounds followed.

Real Madrid's luck has obviously worsened, and they met their arch-rival, Atletico Madrid, early in the knockout round of 16.

…………

…………

On the evening of January 7, 211 and 13.

Calderón Stadium in Madrid, Copa del Rey knockout round, Atletico Madrid hosts Real Madrid.

In the thirteenth minute of the game, Real Madrid won a free-kick on the left side of the field, which was created by Hazard forcing a breakthrough with the ball.

Atletico Madrid has a lot of experience in fouling, and they are also very good at capturing the referee's psychology and law enforcement, and they are also very afraid of Yang Yang's free kicks, so when they foul, they often choose a relatively remote area.

This time it was like that, on the edge of the box on the left, not far away, but it was difficult to penalize.

Usually this kind of ball is a direct cross for teammates in the box to grab.

David Silva stood on the edge of the penalty spot, and Yang Yang was the same as him.

No one knew who was going to take the ball, and even the Real Madrid players on the pitch didn't understand.

Because Yang Yang should not have stood at the penalty spot, but should have been ambushed in the penalty area and grabbed the front point, but he suddenly decided to come to the penalty spot, which surprised everyone.

The reason for Yang Yang's temporary change of mind is that in the thirteen minutes since the opening, Real Madrid has had two corner kicks and one set-piece in front, but they have failed to create a threat.

"This time the punishment is estimated to be the same." Yang Yang said softly to David Silva in front of him.

How smart is the Spanish midfielder, "You want to play directly? ”

"If you're surprised, give it a try." Yang Yang said.

As long as he makes a decision, all the players on the Real Madrid field will obey and cooperate unconditionally, because Yang Yang is the number one attacking firepower in the Real Madrid team, he has unlimited right to fire, anytime and anywhere, even in his own penalty area, as long as he wants, he can play directly.

What's more, over the years, Yang Yang has already conquered his teammates bit by bit with his performance.

"Okay, I'll cover for you later." David Silva said without hesitation.

The implication of his words is that he ran first, pretending to go to the cross to find the penalty area, but then Yang Yang personally hit the goal.

But after Yang Yang heard this, he shook his head, "I'll fight first!" ”

"You hit first?" David Silva was stunned for a moment, but soon understood what Yang Yang meant.

Since it's a surprise, it's best to surprise to the end, don't even use cover, just hit the door.

But even so, David Silva still pretended to gesture towards his team-mates in the box, as if he was sending a signal like he usually did when he took a free-kick.

The distance is a little farther, but the angle is indeed too far away to hit the goal directly, so everyone in the penalty area is basically guessing that David Silva will cross, and then his teammates in the penalty area will fight for the top, Yang Yang is just a false shot.

But with the referee's whistle, Yang Yang rushed out quickly.

This seems to confirm the speculation of the outside world, and the first ones to run out are often covered.

But what was really surprising was that Yang Yang rushed in front of the ball, but instead of running over to cover David Silva as they expected, he directly stood up and quickly kicked out with his right foot.

The scene only heard a loud bang, and saw the ball fly out quickly, climbed at a very fast speed, and then fell quickly, and after making an elegant arc, it went directly into the right side of Atletico Madrid's goal, almost grazing the post and crashing into the side netting.

1 to 0!

Goalkeeper Oblak just flew sideways, but he was a step late, and the whole body was so angry that he kept slapping the grass.

……

With a direct free kick from Yang Yang, Real Madrid took the lead, but in the subsequent game, Real Madrid still did not play well, which is also a problem that Real Madrid is facing now.

In the first half, Real Madrid was very good at what happened, but a pause in the winter break interrupted Real Madrid's form, and then the team began to prepare for the second half, and now it is in the adjustment phase, and the form is not ideal.

Not only is the condition of other players not ideal, but even Yang Yang himself feels that he is not in the best condition.

On the contrary, Atletico Madrid, since December, has played fewer games than Real Madrid, and this game is at home, Simeone's team is indeed in better form than Real Madrid.

But in the 52nd minute, Real Madrid used a quick counterattack, Marcelo passed diagonally to the back of the penalty area on the left side, Suarez inserted, and the ball was crossed from mid-air to the front of the goal at the edge of the small penalty area.

But just six minutes later, after Ramos brought down Raul Garcia in the box during a corner, the referee awarded a red card and a penalty, and Keylor Navas did not save the penalty again this time, and Atletico pulled one back.

In the 76th minute, Gabi took a corner kick and Gimenez headed home from inside the box.

Two to two!

Both times they fell to corners, and Real Madrid's stubborn illness looked a bit like it had turned into a dead end.
