Before playing against Valencia, Zidane made a decision that made Lin Yu a little unhappy, that is, to put Lin Yu on the bench, not only him, but also many main players in the previous game with Liverpool, such as Cristiano. Ronaldo, Modric, Xavi. Alonso and so on.

The reason given by Zidane is that in that game with Liverpool, although Real Madrid won a big victory, the players' physical strength has been greatly consumed, and it is better to use the main force on the field at this time than to let the substitutes play this game.

For this reason, Lin Yu basically agreed, but this is only limited to other main forces, it is not suitable for him, he knows his physical strength best, although that game did consume a lot, but there is no problem in participating in the game continuously, there is no need to rest at all.

But it's hard to say about this matter, he can only know that he has a ball king cultivator, and he must not tell the second person, and even his girlfriend Qu Hong He never said it.

Helpless, he still chose to accept Zidane's request, anyway, it's not that he can't play, it's just that he was placed on the bench, if the team is really in trouble, he can still play to fight the fire, and it doesn't hurt to rest.

Messing with the manager over this?

Lin Yu is not naïve enough to that extent, not to mention that in essence, people are also for his good, so he can't be good or bad.

What's more, after the match with Valencia, it will be the final of the Copa del Rey, although this champion Lin Yu is not particularly attractive now. But you also have to see who the opponent is, but the opponent is Barcelona. I'm going to destroy it anyway.

Thinking of this, he felt a lot more comfortable. I don't feel so uncomfortable.

……

Klopp, who has been following Real Madrid, couldn't help but smile bitterly after getting the news.

He originally thought that Zidane would focus on the league, and the Copa del Rey could be put aside, but he never expected that Zidane would dare to be so bold and choose a big rotation when he was one point behind in the league, what courage it must be.

Klopp knows very well that today's Copa del Rey final will be a tough battle again, and he knows best how terrifying his disciple Lin Yu is, although now Barcelona is much better than the last big defeat to Real Madrid. But who can guarantee that Lin Yu's crazy frenzy can be stopped?

Speaking of which, it is not easy for Zidane to make this decision, in case the league loses to Valencia, then it is very likely to open a four-point gap with Barcelona, and the later it is in the season, the more difficult it is to make up for this gap, even if Real Madrid kills Barcelona again, there is still a one-point gap, and if it is not good, this point will become a decisive factor in the final championship between the two teams.

But he did it anyway. Because he knows that his team can't lose to Barcelona, and once he loses to Barcelona, it will be a very serious blow to the team's morale. It will be implicated in the next Champions League or even league games.

So in order to be able to play consistently, he has to let the main team rest. Embattled.

What's more, his substitute lineup is not casually going to lose to Valencia, so there's no need to be too nervous.

……

Although sitting on the bench. However, Lin Yu is still the star who appears the most in the footage of this game, and almost as long as there is any change on the field. The camera will immediately focus on him.

When Real Madrid are behind, you can see his gloomy face, and when Real Madrid equalizes, you can see him celebrating ecstatically.

In fact, you don't need to look at the stadium in this game, as long as you look at Lin Yu's expression, you can know what the score on the field is.

I have to say that Zidane really miscalculated in this game.

Zidane's idea is very good, he intends to rest the main players, which is understandable in itself, but he forgets that Valencia is a dignified team, even if it can't keep up with the rhythm of the top three, but after all, it is also the fourth team.

In this game, Real Madrid did not play the main team, did not go to Lin Yu, which was considered a huge shame and humiliation by Valencia, and they felt that they were underestimated, so they could only play eighty percent of their strength, but today they can play twelve percent, which is not easy to deal with.

As a result, Valencia broke the deadlock at the beginning by Little Pea Hernandez, and then Real Madrid struggled to equalize, but the field has been very uncomfortable.

Lin Yu heard the ridicule and abuse of him in the stands, but he didn't care, he couldn't sit still on the bench, so he stood up, he stood on the sidelines, and shouted at the field: "Don't forget, you are Real Madrid, you must be worthy of the team emblem on your chest!" ”

He didn't know where he got a flag with the Real Madrid crest painted on it, and then he just stood there, holding the flag, and he didn't even put his hand down from the beginning of the second half of the game until the end of the game.

And his hard work is not without effect, maybe it was originally a draw, maybe it will be a loss, but because of his move, the Real Madrid players on the field seem to be playing chicken blood and become excited.

In the end, Benzema helped the team complete the stunner away from home! Got a rare victory!

In fact, when the game was more than 70 minutes into the game, Zidane was already planning to let Lin Yu play, and he was also worried that the game would be lost or drawn in the end, but seeing Lin Yu waving the flag and standing there, a certain string in his heart was touched, so he didn't do that, he felt that he should also believe in his players, even if it was a substitute, Real Madrid should be the strongest!

……

As soon as the game ended, Lin Yu rushed into the court, and then his teammates on the field raised him together, and the flag was still showing off on the court.

There was a scolding from Valencia fans in the stands, but they were just envious and jealous, any team with a player like Lin Yu. All are worthy of admiration, all worthy of envy and envy.

'We didn't lose the game. Instead, he lost to Lin Yu! This is what Valencia manager Manuel Pellegrino said in the post-match interview.

Actually, his words. Many people agree, including the media present, that if there is no Lin Yu in this game, Real Madrid will definitely lose or draw in the end, and it is absolutely impossible to win.

Even sitting on the bench can give the team a huge amount of motivation, such a person is terrible, unless he is made to disappear, it will be really difficult to beat Real Madrid.

"Well done. Guys! But unlike other people's thoughts, Lin Yu didn't feel that he had any credit, the only thing he did was to wave the team flag and shout a few times on the sidelines, it was still those people who played the ball on the field, the ball was won by them, and it was immoral to grab this credit by himself.

After this game, Zidane deliberately found Lin Yu and praised his performance on the bench: "You did a good job in this game. ”

"Boss, you think too highly of me. In fact, everything is in your hands in this game, right? Lin Yu said with a smile.

"Haha, who knows." Zidane also smiled.

It can be seen that Zidane has gradually grasped the position of coach very well. The reason why he arranged Lin Yu on the bench and put a team flag next to Lin Yu's seat before the game intentionally or unintentionally was a seemingly unintentional move. In fact, it can only be done after understanding Lin Yu's character.

He didn't leave Lin Yu in Madrid, but brought him here to sit on the bench. It's also about getting ready for second-hand.

Once things don't go according to his imagination, then he still has Lin Yu to send him on the field to score points.

So don't underestimate the wisdom of a superstar who has been in the limelight for more than a decade. Don't underestimate the coaching skills he has learned in so many games.

In order to become a professional coach, Zidane is willing to become someone else's green leaf, sitting next to others to learn to coach, this perseverance and tenacity, not everyone can do.

There is a saying in China that "the drum has to be hammered", a good team, a group of good players, must have a good coach, a high-grade coach, otherwise the results will not be good.

Zidane at the beginning of this season may not really meet this requirement, but as the season deepens, his progress can be described as huge, whether it is in the arrangement of personnel or the adjustment of tactics, he has his own unique style, not just according to the things in Lippi's little book.

Suffice it to say, he was already able to throw away the reference answers.

……

Although Real Madrid won one away from home, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid also won the next few La Liga games, so the current situation is still Barcelona first, Real Madrid is second, Atletico Madrid is third, and the difference in points is only one or two points.

However, Zidane does not seem to be worried, and in his opinion, the penultimate game against Barcelona in the league is his scorer, and as long as they can beat Barcelona in that game, they will still win the title.

In fact, the odds of winning La Liga are still ranked first, with odds of only 2.5, while Barcelona's odds of winning the championship have reached 5.00, and Atletico Madrid's odds of winning the championship have reached 10.22.

Obviously, although Atletico Madrid has been strong in recent seasons, it is still not favored by bookmakers in terms of winning the title.

In fact, in Europe, the odds offered by bookmakers are even more informative than some of the analytical data.

Now, Zidane is more concerned about the Copa del Rey final, and he will be focusing all his energy on this game and winning his first title of the season.

The UEFA Super Cup and Club World Cup won before can only be counted as last season, so they don't count.

The Copa del Rey is the first title that Real Madrid will win this season, and if it can be won, it will be regarded as a good win, and it may be easier to play in the league and Champions League after that.

……

With a week to go until the Copa del Rey final, the media has been hyping up all the time.

Although this is only the Copa del Rey, obviously not as good as the league, let alone the Champions League, but this is the Spanish national derby, no matter how many times, the Spanish national derby will always be the most exciting game in La Liga, even if Barcelona is not as good as Real Madrid today, but it is still equally attractive, many people think that after Klopp coaches Barcelona, he will be able to change this team.

The two teams have met twice this season, losing to Barcelona in the Super Cup at home, and Lin Yu helped the team beat Barcelona in the first leg of the league matchup.

What will be the outcome of the Copa del Rey this time, it is very worth guessing and playing.

Lin Yu has undoubtedly once again become the focus of media attention, and after a break in the previous league, he is undoubtedly full of energy, so will Lin Yu, who scored five goals in the first league matchup, continue to perform miracles in this game?

Will there be another big score like in the league?

Not to mention that the media and fans paid special attention to this game, Barcelona coach Jurgen Klopp also paid special attention to it, and he even wrote down the main points in the form of notes to help the team defend Lin Yu, and sent them to the defenders to read. (To be continued......)
