After beating Villarreal 2-0 and winning the league opener, Capello finally got some praise.

"Ka Shuai has finally built the Galaxy Battleship into shape, and Real Madrid's defensive line, which has been repeatedly criticized in previous years, has gradually improved."

"A typical Kashi victory, although the process was not pretty, but Capello's team did control the rhythm from start to finish."

Of course, there were also discordant voices, mainly accusing Capello's team of being too unspectatory, playing ugly and not fully bringing out the abilities of those talented attackers.

Villarreal are not weak, having beaten defending champions Inter Milan in the Champions League last season and finished seventh in the league, so this game is a tough one.

In this hard-fought battle, Real Madrid had the last laugh and increased their confidence.

After this game, it was time for the national team break.

The first phase of Dunga's Brazilian team has finally been formed.

The so-called once a son of heaven and a courtier, generally when the new coach takes office, he will promote some newcomers, and these newcomers will also be grateful to the coach and become his descendants.

Dunga is no exception.

In this Brazilian team, Cafu, Robert. Carlos and other veterans were all defeated, and Dunga bluntly told the media: "My purpose in coaching this team is to prepare for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, and everything is for the World Cup, so I want to make this team younger." ”

Several players who have never had international team experience were selected, and some players on the fringes of the national team were also called up.

And players like Ricardo and Kaka, who are both young and famous, have no grudges against Dunga, and of course will not be excluded.

The assembled national team played two games, beating Argentina 4:0, and then swept Wales 5:0, although the opponents were all newly formed teams and did not use their full strength, but it was enough for the Brazilian domestic media to praise Dunga.

Ricardo's goal against Argentina and his brace against Wales brought his country's total to 40 and reached the milestone again.

Although the record of catching up with Ronaldo and Pele is still far away, he has set a new record: the record for the most goals scored by the national team among Brazilian players under the age of 20.

Even the football kings Pele and Ronaldo don't have so many national team goals at his age.

Before the national team was disbanded, Dunga came to Ricardo's hotel room and had a one-on-one conversation.

The opening line starts with "I appreciate your performance, you're great, better than the legend."

After a few humble words from Ricardo, Dunga said, "I already know something about you. I won't call you up again for the rest of the friendly this year, I'm going to give the other players some chances. ”

"I understand," said Ricardo with a nod, "I won't mind." "He just wanted to put a little more effort into the club. As for breaking Ronaldo's and Pele's goal records, he is in no hurry at all. He has a long, long career ahead of him.

"Protect yourself and don't get hurt, injuries are the enemy of athletes. Keep it up," Dunga's serious face showed a loving expression, "the future of Brazil depends on you young people. ”

After this conversation, Ricardo flew back to Madrid with Kaka and Ciciño.

After participating in the team's joint practice, Ricardo found himself in the left winger position again when training in groups, with Kaka playing as a central midfielder and Cassano as the lone arrow.

The adjustment of players and positions will definitely involve a change in the whole tactic.

Unlike the traditional No. 9 Van Nistelrooy, Cassano is positioned further down, playing a false No. 9 to create more opportunities for Licardo and Kaka behind him.

However, Cassano's body is relatively thin, and he suffers a lot in the confrontation, and the effectiveness of this style of play in actual combat still needs to be tested.

The opponent in the second round of the league is promoted Ma Levante, and Real Madrid will have no problem winning away from home, which is a good time to test the new tactics.

When Cassano scored Real Madrid's second goal in the 25th minute and ran wildly to celebrate, Capello did not hesitate to give applause and nodded secretly.

At least from the first 25 minutes of the game, this set of tactics is still very useful.

Capello actually prefers to use tall, strong, and capable strikers, such as Trezeguet and Ibrahimovic at Juventus, and less likely to use Piero.

However, Cassano was his favourite in Rome and he knows how to use this type of striker.

It's never a bad thing for a team to have more than two sets of plays, and it can be targeted according to different opponents.

Capello would never just use a tall and strong striker just because he likes to use a tall and strong striker. No matter what kind of player is used, it is for the sake of victory, as long as it can win, let him use the striker.

That's his philosophy.

It's not just one formation, it's not just one type of player.

Whatever ingredients you have in your hand, you can cook what you want, and you are a good chef.

If you have any players under your command, you can develop tactics that suit them, and you are a smart manager.

Capello looks down on Pereira's kind of coach who clings to a 442.

Real Madrid's goalscoring show continues. In the 55th minute, Ricardo scored twice with a free kick to help Real Madrid lead by three goals; In the 91st minute, Ricardo took advantage of a corner kick opportunity to kick in the chaos in the penalty area, successfully scored a hat, and also drew a perfect end to Real Madrid's victory.

4 goals to win! In the standings, Real Madrid is also temporarily at the top of the table.

On September 17, in the third round of La Liga, Real Madrid, sitting at the Bernabeu, changed a new lineup and a new starter.

The team played 442 this time, with Licardo and Ruud van Nistelrooy playing as a double striker, Reyes on the left as a wing-back, David Beckham on the right, and Ciciño also got a chance to start.

Despite the differences in line-up and tactics, Real Madrid won 3-0 as they wished.

Reyes and David Beckham scored separately, with Kaka, who came on late as a substitute, latching on David Beckham's pass to score the icing on the cake.

Ricardo didn't score or assist, but Capello was still pleased with his performance, believing that his dribbling, his pace, drew much of the attention of the opposition defence; His aggressive running, his threading of the needle, set the stage for the team's victory.

And Xiaobei, who has made a contribution, is still not appreciated by Capello. Capello felt that Beckham and his tactics were a bit out of place, and that the team might have won more easily if Beckham had not been on the field.
