Chapter 1097: The Guardian Demon at the Press Conference
Messi's goal silenced the originally boiling Madrid, and many Real Madrid fans in front of the TV watched Messi celebrate wildly there with some unwillingness, and some even bit their gums to bleed.
The TV camera is very interesting, at this time, instead of filming Messi's celebratory expression, the camera is pushed to the Real Madrid players, as if they intended to see how the Real Madrid players will react when facing the end of the loss.
The vast majority of Real Madrid players looked helpless at this time, and the expression on their faces was mostly painful and unacceptable, which seems to be easy to understand, after all, it has been so long since they lost, and it is really a bit unacceptable to suddenly lose to their own feud.
"We can see that on the faces of the Real Madrid players, I thought they were crazy people who never knew about disappointment." Seeing such an expression, the narrator couldn't help but express his innermost thoughts.
This season, Real Madrid have not known what defeat tastes like in the league and Champions League for so long that it has given people the illusion that this team is an invincible team that will never be defeated, and now it seems that this is not the case.
In front of the TV, Simeone had a look of joy on his face, and on the sidelines, Klopp also clenched his fists tightly, as if he saw hope.
……
Seeing his team concede a goal at the last moment, Zidane was also a burst of regret and helplessness, this is the Champions League semi-finals, a loss. Maybe it will affect the whole ending.
Although the two legs of the Champions League semi-finals should actually be a 180-minute duel. Now Real Madrid has lost 1:2 from the away side, which is actually psychologically acceptable. However, Zidane is not worried about this, he is worried about whether the mentality of Real Madrid players will change if this game is lost.
The consecutive victories have given this team absolute self-confidence and a strong will to fight, but losing at this time, will it be like a basin of cold water to pour them through the cold and completely lose this self-confidence?
Your own team needs to be confident, because your own team is the strongest team in Europe at the moment, if you lose your confidence. He didn't know what was going to happen, maybe it was scary.
Zidane was not surprised by such an ending, but he was very worried, which is his most tangled psychological situation at present.
The reason why he is not surprised is because Barcelona has indeed become stronger under Klopp's tutelage this season, and this time there is home advantage, even if it wins, it is not impossible.
Still, he's proud of his players. Even at the Camp Nou, they still conceded a goal at the last minute, and they played very well before, even suppressing Barcelona. The goal conceded in the final period can only be said to be too bad luck, but it does not affect the overall situation. As long as the players' psychology is not affected, there will be no problems. And that's all he's really worried about. As for the score, he believes that as long as the team returns to the home stadium, it must be possible to reverse the promotion, after all, with an away goal, as long as the home team can win 1:0, it is enough, which is really not too difficult for Real Madrid.
……
To Zidane's relief, he saw the players gritting their teeth and fighting back.
In the face of Barcelona's last-minute goal, Real Madrid's players did not give up hope, let alone the next leg, even in this game, they did not completely give up hope.
With four minutes of stoppage time, they were still looking for a goal.
Zidane did not make substitutions, he felt that there was no need to make substitutions in a game like today, the morale of the players was very high, just keep it up.
Barcelona didn't dare to defend it, they also wanted to expand the score, after all, the 2:1 score was too unsafe, and the opponent still had an away goal, so maybe in the end, because of this away goal, their team would be eliminated.
In the final four minutes of stoppage time, the two sides still did not give up the attack, which made the game extremely interesting, Lin Yu and Messi competed in the game to be on camera, just to fight for a better situation for their own team.
If Real Madrid had scored in stoppage time, the score would have become 2-2, and two away goals would have been a huge advantage for Real Madrid.
However, Barcelona is not a lamb to be slaughtered, they played very well today, at least on par with Real Madrid, so the score did not change much until the end.
Barcelona were unable to extend their scores, while Real Madrid were unable to equalise.
Barcelona got a win at home, while Real Madrid got an away goal, and in a sense, this game can actually be considered a draw.
……
After the game, the media paid the most attention to Lin Yu's goals and Real Madrid's defeat, and the media wanted to know what Real Madrid's players would feel.
Regarding the number of goals, the media was somewhat playful and sarcastic, and they asked Lin Yu: "You once said that you would score 30 goals in the Champions League, but now it seems that you are far away from this goal, what do you think?" ”
Looking at the reporter's unbeaten face, Lin Yu just smiled and said, "How many goals did I score?" ”
"Twenty-one."
"And how many goals did your favorite Messi goals score?"
"Seventeen ......"
"I said that this journalist from Catalonia, when he wants to satirize people in the future, it is better to find a suitable reason to use the goal to satirize me, it is too pediatric." Lin Yu sneered: "Your Messi didn't even reach twenty goals, you still dare to sarcastically mock me, don't you think I dare to be sarcastic?" And you'd better listen to me, I did say I was going to score 30 goals in the Champions League, but never said it was this season. I'm still young and there's still time. If I can't accomplish this goal by the time I retire, it's not too late for you to mock me. I'll let you have a good time when the time comes. ”
The reason why Lin Yu provoked Messi at this time, of course, is not only because this annoying reporter is from Catalonia, but also because he lost to Barcelona in this game, he is unhappy, and now he has planted a seed, maybe he will be able to reap the fruits in the second leg.
Although Messi is very low-key, he is also very self-respecting and proud, listening to Lin Yu's words. There will definitely be changes, maybe the next round of the duel will become a solitary force because of Lin Yu's words.
Taking 10,000 steps back, it doesn't matter if this seed can't take root and sprout, Lin Yu will be all angry.
He will not provoke a person for no reason, who makes Messi his biggest opponent and enemy at this stage, then it is really unbearable.
After he finished speaking, he turned and left, leaving behind an angry Catalan journalist.
……
At the post-match press conference. Lin Yu reappeared, this time Zidane specially brought him to participate, Zidane's idea was very simple, he knew that after the team lost. There will definitely be some bad remarks, especially from some people, who may even directly ask him some embarrassing topics. With Lin Yu present, these people would be much more restrained. After all, everyone knew how terrifying Lin Yu's mouth was.
Sure enough, many reporters originally wanted to take this opportunity to satirize Zidane. But seeing Lin Yu sitting there, he swallowed all the words he originally wanted to say, and it really wouldn't have any good results if he made trouble with that demon king.
So the reporters changed their minds and replaced them with some relatively normal questions to ask, such as why Real Madrid lost this game and what to do after losing.
Zidane was satisfied with the question, and he smiled: "The reason why we lost is because the opponent is strong, not because our players are not good. ”
"Does that mean you're going to give up the Champions League?"
"How is that possible! It's not a Champions League final, it's a semi-final, we still have 90 minutes to change that result, we have an away goal and our players are very demoralised and want to get revenge in the second leg, so I think if you give up, it's the opponent who should give up, not us! ”
Zidane said confidently.
The main reason why he dared to say this was because after the game he found that his players were not desperate or demoralized because of the defeat, but were more motivated, which was definitely a good sign and made him very happy.
"You look confident, but if we say something you don't want to hear, Jurgen Klopp is really better than you, aren't you worried about what he's going to do against your team next?"
"Worry about the fart!" Lin Yu suddenly spoke: "What qualifications do you have to say that, I have played under Klopp, and I have also played under Zidane, discussing their coaching level, I am the most qualified." I can tell you clearly that Klopp is very strong and capable, I used to call him Daddy, but now, Zidane is no worse than him! ”
In his opinion, an excellent head coach is first of all to make the players unite and play more energetically, which Zidane did, if Zidane still had many deficiencies last season, then this season has made great progress, coupled with Zidane's former player career, which makes him better understand the psychological feelings of the players, Klopp is inferior to him in this regard, Klopp can't compare with Zidane when he was a player.
So these two people seem to have their own strengths and weaknesses at present, Lin Yu said that they are equal in strength, and it is not an insult to Klopp's prestige.
Hearing Lin Yu's words, many reporters were stunned, thinking that this product was really a trouble, it would be good if they weren't at the press conference, and they didn't dare to mention some questions now.
However, they were also a little surprised, obviously lost, but they couldn't see the slightest disappointment from this product, as if everything was under his control, really speaking, Lin Yu's matchup with Messi in this game, it was a loss of a goal.
The press conference ended in a hurry, and Real Madrid's signal to the media was that there was only one "Santiago Bernabeu Stadium will definitely kill Barcelona." ”
In fact, if there is such a signal, then there is no problem, and such a signal can be combined with the whimsical thinking of the media, and a lot of wonderful stories can be fabricated.
……
The next day, when many media reported on Real Madrid's away loss to Barcelona, they expressed a kind of confidence in Barcelona, and now time flies quickly, the former universe team has become the hero of the earth, and a galaxy battleship of the former earth alliance has now become a space battleship and an opponent that countless people want to defeat.
So the media supports Barcelona beating Real Madrid, which is also something that everyone wants to see, after all, Real Madrid is too strong, and everyone doesn't really want them to dominate Europe all the time.
These media think that Zidane and Lin Yu's speeches at the press conference are just expressions of lust and inwardness, but in fact, they are very afraid of losing, so they will do everything possible to say that they are not afraid. (To be continued......)
