readx;

In Madrid's street newsstands, passers-by are constantly leaning down to put their change aside, then picking up a newspaper and reading it as they go. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info others simply stood by the newsstand and couldn't wait to open the newspaper.

It's Monday morning, ten hours after yesterday's thrilling national derby, and the Spaniards, who have a later schedule than other European countries, are heading out for work.

In Madrid, the capital of Spain, people talk about yesterday's game, and you can see it in the newspapers in their hands.

On the subway, on the bus, in the taxi, in the hands of pedestrians. Everyone is holding such a newspaper, and the headline on the front page of the newspaper is a photo of Chu Zhongtian volleying in the game, the photos are all similar, but the headlines are different, and the headlines of various styles show the excitement of these capital media.

Real Madrid beats Barcelona! 》

The beginning of the end of the dynasty! 》

"A Legend - Chu! 》

Hat-trick at Camp Nou! 》

Perfect Revenge! 》

Dragons at Camp Nou! 》

…… In addition to print media such as newspapers, radio and television stations are also broadcasting news about the game.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Good morning, listeners. It's a pleasure to be able to meet you again at this time...... I'm sure a lot of people go to work today with a smile on their faces and a happy mood. Did you watch yesterday's game? It was a thrilling game, and we won! Ha! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Last night, at Barcelona's home stadium at the Camp Nou, Real Madrid defeated Barcelona 4-2 after 90 minutes of fierce battle. With the victory in this game, Real Madrid shook off Barcelona by three points in the standings! The league title is just around the corner! ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Chu was shining brightly in yesterday's game! He beat Barcelona alone again! Let us see that it is definitely no accident that he beat Barcelona in the Champions League final! Such a player only cost Florentino 70 million euros, which is too cheap......"

"There was only one protagonist at Camp Nou yesterday, and that was Chu! He was the one who made the whole Camp Nou fall silent...... It was he who shattered the dream of Guardiola and his disciples to win four consecutive league titles! He destroyed a dynasty with his own hands, and at the same time built a whole new dynasty with his own hands......"

β€œβ€¦β€¦ How long has it been since we saw a Real Madrid player score a hat-trick in a national derby since Zamorano? How long has it been since we've seen a Real Madrid player score a hat-trick at Camp Nou since Puskas? Today, Chu did it! Not only did he score a hat-trick in the national derby, but he also achieved it at the Camp Nou! He silenced the whole Camp Nou! Congratulations, Chu! You become a legend! ”

"Let's take a look at the goal, it's beautiful...... Volley! The movement is very stretched, very beautiful, and it is almost a shooting action that can be written into the general norms of a textbook...... ValdΓ©s can't do anything in the face of a shot like this, and we can't blame him, because it's not that he didn't play well enough, it's that Chu played too well......"

On the street, in the company, at school, on the bus, on the subway, the first thing everyone said after meeting was: "Did you watch yesterday's game?" It's so exciting, haha!! They all had expressions of happiness and joy on their faces.

That's how the city of Madrid looks this morning.

The past three seasons have clearly belonged to their arch-rivals Barcelona, who have monopolized the title again and again, trampling Real Madrid under their feet time and time again. Even in the national team, it is also based on Barcelona, after clinking cups in the World Cup in South Africa, Barcelona's players played the regional flag of Catalonia, but did not drape the Spanish flag, which itself has made Madrid fans very unhappy, plus the media always preach that this is the Spanish national team is almost equal to Barcelona, and the implication is obviously that the World Cup champion belongs to Barcelona, and Real Madrid has not contributed much...... Barcelona's strength sets off the decline of Real Madrid.

No matter how many managers Real Madrid has changed, no matter how many stars they have bought, they will always be suppressed by Barcelona.

This breath has been held in the hearts of every Real Madrid fan for too long, and it was finally swept away last night, and it was vented in the shouts for Chu Zhongtian's hat trick.

No matter how many seasons Chu Zhongtian will stay with Real Madrid in the future, just with his hat trick in yesterday's game, he is enough to be remembered by Real Madrid fans forever, and he is also qualified to engrave his name on Real Madrid's wall of honor forever and be recorded in Real Madrid's team history.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Yesterday's game can be said to be a one-man game, because Real Madrid scored four goals, he was involved in all of them, the first goal was he assisted Ronaldo, and then in the unfavorable situation of the team's down, he stepped up and scored a hat-trick. Three goals, one assist. He now has fourteen goals and seventeen assists in La Liga. And that's just the list of achievements in his first season in La Liga...... The speed with which he adapted to La Liga was amazing. We have every reason to expect that in the next two episodes, he will deliver an even better palmares than this one...... Although the season is not over yet, we can already declare that the best foreign player in La Liga this season belongs to Chu from China! ”

This is the evaluation of Chu Zhongtian's performance after the game by the "Marca" newspaper.

Chu Zhongtian's hat-trick convinced everyone, and even the Catalan media lamented after the game why Barcelona always met this Chinese at their peak, and why did Chu join Barcelona's sworn rival Real Madrid instead of Barcelona? They firmly believe that if Barcelona take it seriously and win Chu Zhongtian last summer, this team is fully capable of dominating European football for another five years, even if Xavi is old.

But now, the dynastic era of the Dream Team is so short...... The league has not won four consecutive championships, and the next time there is a chance to win four consecutive championships, I don't know when it will go.

Chu Zhongtian's performance yesterday was too perfect, since May 22, 2005, Diego. It's been seven years since Forlan scored a hat-trick here and no one has been able to score a hat-trick against Camp Nou.

Therefore, in the face of Chu Zhongtian, who scored a hat-trick, the Catalan media unanimously lost their voices, and they even began to criticize Barcelona, believing that Rusell only cared about repaying debts after taking office, and did not actively find ways to strengthen the team.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It is not feasible to try to rely on Xavi, Iniesta, Messi, Villa and other players to play the world, Barcelona must inject fresh blood! Compared to Real Madrid, our bench depth is too weak...... No matter how good Pep Guardiola is, he can't fight against Real Madrid, which is built with money! ”

Madridians gloat at the mourning on the side of Barcelona.

Of course, not all of the Catalan media are wailing, some have quickly moved on from the defeat and are eyeing the Champions League final.

The 1:2 away loss to Manchester United did not affect the morale and confidence of the Barcelona people, who believe that with Barcelona's strong strength, coupled with playing at home, Barcelona can always get a large combat bonus at Camp Nou, so it should not be difficult to eliminate Manchester United at Camp Nou.

Breaking into the Champions League final like this is definitely another fight with Real Madrid. Real Madrid's elimination of Celtic is not in suspense.

"Revenge! Revenge! We want revenge! "There are Catalan media outlets with such headlines.

"Beating them in the Champions League final is revenge at its best! We've won three league titles in a row and it's not a big deal to give them one, but in the Champions League final, if we can prevent them from winning their tenth Champions League trophy, it's more than enough to snatch the league title away from them! ”

'The defeat at Camp Nou is no big deal, Pep Guardiola and his disciples have to free themselves from this inconsequential defeat and focus on the Champions League......

In order to encourage the players, the Catalan media did not hesitate to downplay the defeat of this game as "irrelevant" without hesitating their conscience, which shows how eager they are for revenge...... β€»β€»β€» After the fierce battle of Real Madrid, according to the custom, even if there is a Champions League semi-final in midweek, Guardiola should give the players a half-day off, after all, the second leg semi-final is played on their own home stadium, and they do not have to go back and forth.

But Pep Guardiola announced that he would train normally the next morning.

It seems that he has also shifted his focus to the Champions League. It is almost impossible to reverse Real Madrid in the league, and it is only a matter of time before Real Madrid win the championship. All they can do in the league is try to delay Real Madrid's title as long as possible.

In the Champions League, however, they have a lot to do.

As long as they beat Manchester United in the semi-finals, they will be able to meet Real Madrid again in the final. In this encounter, Pep Guardiola vowed to completely defeat Real Madrid and wash away the shame of the league in the Champions League!

Before training began, Pep Guardiola told his players, who were still a little frustrated: "I know you're still haunted by losing at home, so I want to ask you: Are you willing? Are you willing to lose the game, to lose the league title? ”

Piqua was the first to reply: "No one is willing! ”

"Yes, no one is willing to lose to them, coach! We are Barcelona and it was definitely not a happy thing to lose to Real Madrid......"

Everyone also replied.

Guardiola nodded: "That's good. That's why I'm asking you to train this morning as well – three days before the semi-finals, and in those three days we have to train hard to improve ourselves. Beating Manchester United and reaching the final is our top priority for the next step. But that's not the end goal. The ultimate goal is to beat Real Madrid in the final! Beat them! Give them a taste of what we have now! ”

β€»β€»β€» While Pep Guardiola was mobilizing, there was a relaxed atmosphere in the Real Madrid team.

Mourinho, like Pep Guardiola, did not give his team-mates half a day off after the game, but everyone was relaxed, so the training was like a holiday.

From the moment Chu Zhongtian appeared in the locker room, he continued to receive congratulations from everyone. On the training ground, he also received congratulations from his coaches.

It is certainly worth being happy to score a hat-trick, but this is not the first hat-trick of Chu Zhongtian's career, and he didn't take it too seriously at first. But later in an interview with reporters, he learned that he was the first person to score a hat-trick at Camp Nou in seven years, the first Real Madrid player to score a hat-trick in a national derby in 17 years, and the first Real Madrid player to score a hat-trick at Camp Nou in 49 years.

With this series of figures, he can fully understand why those pro-Real Madrid journalists were so excited and excited when they interviewed him yesterday...... Naturally, I also understand better why I was treated in training today.

Every old Real Madrid knows how difficult it is to score a hat-trick at Camp Nou, which is why Chu Zhongtian's hat-trick makes them so excited.

Chu Zhongtian didn't see that when he volleyed the football into the Barcelona goal for the third time, in the stands and in front of the TV, how many gray-haired old Real Madrid fans were wiping their eyes.

Real Madrid's relaxed atmosphere was not only due to Chu Zhongtian's hat-trick, but also because they had almost already won the league title after beating Barcelona at Camp Nou. In the last three rounds of the league, even if Mourinho played with a substitute lineup, the league championship had no choice but to run.

Real Madrid's bench is just as strong...... Coupled with the fact that the Champions League semi-finals defeated Celtic 4-0 in the first leg, which directly made the second leg of Celtic's home game meaningless, Mourinho actually intends to use a rotating lineup to play the second leg.

Real Madrid will have no problem qualifying for the final.

For the Real Madrid players, there is really only one game left for the whole season, and that is the Champions League final!

Although United beat Barcelona 2-1 at home in the first leg, Real Madrid players are confident that Barcelona have the ability to knock Manchester United out at home and reach the final. After all, there is still a gap in the strength of the two teams. Add to that the fact that Barcelona will be more fighting on their own home turf. The Real Madrid players have just experienced this. If it weren't for Chu Zhongtian's hat trick, it would be really hard to say who would have killed the deer.

Although they are mortal enemies, they have to admit that Barcelona is very strong.

Therefore, this Champions League final will be even more interesting if Barcelona reach the final - Real Madrid and Barcelona's third national derby of the season turned out to be the final of the Champions League.

No matter how Real Madrid beat Barcelona twice in the previous two times, they are not as important as the last one. Although Real Madrid broke Barcelona's dream of four consecutive league titles, for Real Madrid, the league is not important, the important thing is the Champions League. Real Madrid have won nine Champions League trophies so far, and they are one short of 10 titles. It's just that this championship has made them wait for ten years and still haven't got it.

In the past ten years, Real Madrid's president has changed three times, the head coach has changed eleven, and the players have come and gone, but they have never been able to get a championship trophy in the Champions League, and there is even a "scandal" that stopped in the quarterfinals for six consecutive years, which is ridiculed as the "dream eight", which means that they dream of entering the quarterfinals.

As a team with an honourable tradition in the Champions League, having won the European Cup five times in a row and producing the leading scorer in Champions League history to date, it is hard to endure such a humiliation.

Fiorentino spent a lot of money to poach Mourinho, definitely not so that he could lead the team to the league title, Capello and Schuster are enough to do the task. But to win the Champions League, you need someone like Jose Mourinho. Jose Mourinho led Inter Milan to victory over Bayern Munich at the Bernabeu to lift the Champions League trophy, which stimulated Fiorentino and strengthened his determination to bring in Mourinho.

Therefore, he brought in Mourinho completely for the Champions League, a manager who can lead two teams to win the Champions League at a young age, must have his uniqueness in the Champions League.

Real Madrid must achieve a breakthrough in the Champions League, otherwise the transfer deal will fail.

Now that the league title and the Copa del Rey have been won, and the team is in such good shape, there is no reason not to win the Champions League...... Therefore, for Real Madrid, the final battle is undoubtedly the Champions League final.

If Real Madrid lose to Barcelona in the Champions League final, the humiliation of Barcelona at the Camp Nou will be quickly forgotten and even seen as part of Barcelona's braggathing – they will chant for Barcelona's perfect revenge, beating Real Madrid in the most important game, and then chalking up the league title and the Copa del Rey triumph. Just like they did after Real Madrid won the Copa del Rey.

People often don't pay attention to the process, just look at the end result.

And the Champions League final, for the grudge between Real Madrid and Barcelona, is the final battle.

Barcelona's dynasty has not been completely ended, although they have encountered some difficulties that have left them looking shaky. But the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, and this dynasty still has the ability and opportunity to save itself. The Champions League final is a crucial battle for their future. If they can beat Real Madrid in the Champions League final, they will be able to reverse their previous decline and regain their grip on Real Madrid.

If they lose the final...... Then don't say anything and announce the arrival of a new era.

It will be a more intense game than this league, and it should even be called "miserable".
