Chapter 59: The Devil's Schedule's Coping Strategy!
Real Madrid's form was sluggish after the winter break, with just two draws and one win in their first three games, and Barcelona took the opportunity to close the gap on points. As the most valuable Tang Jue in the team, he was bombarded by the Catalan region and the British media. Johansen took the opportunity to poke out the fact that Tang Jue was a billionaire, and the media talked about it. These put a lot of pressure on Tang Juedu.
After the pressure, he almost got into a big fight with Garcia. Thankfully, he calmed down in time to release the pressure with a hat-trick in just four minutes, before he began to explode and score a staggering six goals.
The world's major media resounded with praise.
Marca reported the surprise and Tang Jue to find his form, they said: The Champions League knockout round is coming, and the timing of Tang's recovery is just right, which brings hope for Real Madrid to advance. Real Madrid fans saw a hearty win at the Bernabeu last night and they were happy to finally wait for the team and the players to recover.
Real Madrid were not only strong in attack last night, but also very well defensively, with Casillas being the most idle player on the pitch last night, making no saves as the opposition did not have a single shot on goal. Valladolid set another La Liga record last night - without a shot on goal in the whole game!
"In the first half of the game, Tang scored six goals, and the powerful and invincible striker came back. He was never an elegant player, but a fighter on the pitch, and in front of god-like stats, Don swept away his previous frustration after scoring a goal, yelling at UltrasSur boss Diani and Johansen respectively to vent his emotions. β
"UltrasSur boss Diani unfurls a banner at the Bernabeu to stimulate Don. Johansen was the most powerful journalist who attacked Don some time ago. Don didn't let them go after scoring a goal, he was like a 'grudge' kid. We shouldn't comment too much on this kind of behavior, but a player, we need to focus on his performance on the pitch and not off the pitch. β
The headline of the team newspaper reads: Six goals in the half, Don returns strongly, slaughters Valladolid!
They thought this game was a slaughter, "Don had too much negativity to accumulate before this game. Sluggish state, billionaire, energy shift, etc., these words were used by some media critics a few days ago. Last night. The Real Madrid boss did not put him in the starting line-up. This made him very uncomfortable, and he sat on the bench with a blank face for the first half.
The many disadvantages are like a balloon full of gas, once the critical point is crossed. The balloon will burst. Don came off the bench in the second half. Shortly after playing. He failed to find the back of the net with two shots in a row. Garcia saw this as a good opportunity for provocation, and in the face of provocation, Don's emotions spiraled out of control. Stuck in Garcia's neck.
The referee each played 50 boards, and each person had a yellow card. It's a very common thing for a football game, but for Don, the balloon that was full of air, burst at that moment, and he exploded. Next, Garcia realizes how terrible the Don outburst is.
Six goals in the half, that's the stats Don gave people. He wants to use this godly data to tell those who try to provoke and provoke him - I am a lion, do not provoke me, and the result of provoking me is that there are no bones left!
Real Madrid scored nothing in the first half and completed the slaughter in the second half, winning 8-0.
The slaughter of Valladolid was not a very difficult task for Real Madrid, given the limited strength of their opponents. But Real Madrid is happy that their number one star is back! The next week will be a busy one for Real Madrid, with three games to play in eight days, two La Liga and one Champions League.
The season has officially entered the devil's schedule, and the saddest day for the giants is coming. If they want to make a difference, they must arrange the playing time of the players in the devil's schedule so that the team can always maintain the fighting power. Real Madrid shouted at the beginning of the season to win La Liga and the Champions League, and now the time has really come to test them!
Again, this is the time to test Don, and he must be in the best shape to crush the voices that question him! β
The headline of the German newspaper Bild read: Don returns strongly, six goals in the half, eight goals in the half of the game, eight goals in the half, slaughtering the opponent!
The Catalan and British media were silent, unable to criticize his performance on the pitch in the face of his stunning stats.
Johansen kept his promise and published a signed article in World Sports, praising Tang Jue: The ball bully returned strongly last night, scoring six goals in the half, leading Real Madrid to create the biggest point difference in nearly three seasons. Eight goals in the half, which also set a record for the most goals scored in a half game in the history of La Liga since its establishment.
The Telegraph of England did not want to concede defeat and questioned the referee's decision, arguing that Don Garcia deserved a red card instead of a yellow card for his neck.
Their views did not attract attention, though.
β¦β¦
Slaughtering Valladolid and scoring six goals, Tang Jue finally vented the negative emotions that had accumulated in his heart. That night, he invited the whole team to a bar for a drink, and everyone got drunk.
Winning a big victory, the royal horses were very happy, as if they had finally survived the coldest winter. A happy CalderΓ³n stood up and spoke: "I said a long time ago, Don's slump is temporary, he is the greatest star in football today, last night he scored six wonderful goals, told us that he is back!" β
'Real Madrid made a full comeback last night, with the same good performance at the back and not allowing the opposition to complete a single shot. The Devil's schedule is about to begin, and this big win has come at a high time, and I'm sure they will surprise the fans with more! β
β¦β¦
On 17 February, the first match of the Devil's schedule begins, with Real Madrid away to Real Betis. After this game, they will play the knockout round of the Champions League, and on the 20th, they will play the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals at the Olympic Stadium in Rome, away to Roma.
After the match against Roma, we will return to the Bernabeu, 24th. They are going to face Getafe.
It was Schuster's first Champions League knockout game and he appeared to be a little lacking in confidence, bringing together several dressing room leaders to discuss what to do before the Devil's schedule began.
Dressing room leaders spoke freely, with Casillas believing that substitutes should be used in the two La Liga games to give the main players plenty of rest to be fit for the more important Champions League games. This view is supported by almost everyone.
Although Tang Jue agreed with Casillas, he said that he had no physical problems and could participate in all three games. A big win. Unable to vent all his emotions. He's going to tell Johansen - I'm back, just wait for my wrath!
What he didn't expect was that he didn't wait for anyone's praise, but instead ushered in criticism.
The criticism came first and foremost from his closest comrade-in-arms, Henry. "This is a radical mistake. You can't just look at these three games. I'm sure you can be in these three games. Energetic game. But what's next? Falling back into the doldrums, bombarded by the media? β
'After those three games, we have a week off. This was followed by another devil's schedule, with three games played in nine days. Is it that in more than half a month, you have to participate in six races? β
"If we play well, there will be a couple of devilish games ahead. Do you have to participate in all the competitions? Today we have to not only focus on the devilish schedule we are facing at the moment, but also set the tone for the next games. β
Guti nodded and said: "That's right, we have to face the facts, there is still a certain gap between our strength and other strong teams." If you want to make a difference in the Champions League, you have to rotate. β
He looked at Tang Jue and said, "I know your physical fitness is very good, but the recovery of people's mental strength is very slow. If you spend most of your energy in La Liga, what will happen to the Champions League? β
Tang never expected that his words would be "bombarded" so much, and last season in Milan, he played almost all the games in Milan. Tang Jue knew that this was the love of his teammates, but he was a warmonger and didn't want to miss any games.
He looked at his "angry" teammates and said flatteringly: "Why don't we discuss whether I can start in La Liga and let me play in the second half?" β
The crowd looked at each other, then at Schuster, waiting for his decision. After pondering for a moment, Schuster looked up at the others and asked, "What do you guys think?" β
After more than half a season, the Real Madrid coach has changed a lot. Two serious arguments broke out with Tang Jue, and Schuster did not get any favors. Club President CalderΓ³n has said many times that this team is formed with Tang Jue as the core.
Schuster is not stupid, and more importantly, he also wants to leave his name in Real Madrid's illustrious history. If he can lead Real Madrid to defend the title in La Liga this season, it will set a new record - leading the team to the La Liga title in his first year as coach, and he is the defending champion.
Defending the title is more difficult than fighting for the title. All teams will have a higher fighting spirit when they play against last season's champions.
In order to achieve good results, he has changed a lot of practices, such as now, he clearly knows what the players mean and asks him to make the final decision, but he wants the players to open their mouths and say what they want to say. This is a manifestation of his democracy.
Casillas said: "I don't think his request is too much, and I can agree to it. β
Guti also nodded and said: "In La Liga games, his playing time should be controlled within twenty minutes!" β
Tang Jue's brows jumped slightly, this was too ruthless, it was only twenty minutes. Hey, it's better than not playing.
Henry looked at Schuster and said, "Yes, let him play in the last twenty minutes of the second half. β
The Real Madrid boss looked at everyone and said: "Since everyone agrees with this approach, then we will settle it like this." β
Guti and the others breathed a sigh of relief, and Henry slapped Tang Jue hard and said, "Damn, you got your way." But your hard days are coming, and I'll cheer you on from the sidelines! β
Tang Jue raised his head and said loudly to Schuster: "Coach, in fact, Henry's physical fitness is also very good, he should enjoy the same treatment as me." β
The crowd laughed!
The meeting went well, the atmosphere was harmonious, and in the end everyone agreed: Casillas should play all the games without injury, Tang will play the whole game in the Champions League, and La Liga will play in the last 20 minutes. The availability of other players will be determined on a case-by-case basis.
In the lead-up to the Champions League, the whole team reunited and laid a solid foundation for them to achieve good results.
The pace of time firmly stepped into the twenty-seventh, and the first game of the devil's schedule is coming! (To be continued......)
