Back to Europe.

On 14 August, a shocking news broke that Madrid TV replaced TVE as the authorized broadcaster of the Champions League in Spain. As soon as the news broke, TVE's stock fell 12 percent, while Madrid TV's stock rose 7 percent on the day.

This is a big event, and this is the first time that a local television station has replaced national television as the broadcaster of the Champions League. The Spanish media, after being shocked, commented one after another. Marca believes that this has something to do with the lawsuit between TVE and Tang Jue last season.

The World Sports Newspaper said more directly, "There are people on the ball boss, and Madrid TV has a stake in the ball boss, so after he had a bad relationship with TVE, the ball boss was bent on snatching the Champions League broadcast rights from TVE, and he succeeded." ”

The newspaper Allude alludes to the fact that this is related to the Juan family, because the Juan family has invested a lot of money in Madrid TV and is already the largest shareholder of Madrid TV. A Champions League broadcast right will make the TV station earn a lot of money as well as fame.

After the Champions League broadcast rights changed hands, the TVE sports channel was earthquaked, and Antonini, the most famous football broadcaster in Spain, subsequently announced the termination of his contract with TVE and joined Madrid TV. He was joined by TV directors, producers, and technicians of sports channels. TVE's sports channel is in a semi-paralyzed state.

The Daily Sports newspaper commented: "This time the ball boss is going to laugh, and before last season's Champions League final, the lawsuit between him and TVE caused a sensation throughout Europe. Months passed. He used other means to make TVE suffer heavy losses, and the entire sports channel was almost paralyzed. ”

"The ball is a good and sharp means, this is the bottom of the kettle."

Tang Jue shook his head after hearing the news, he did these things, he wanted to do them, and he didn't have the time to do them. However, he was still very happy about the news. He had no good impression of TVE, broadcasting the racist remarks of UltrasSur boss Diani and then suing him.

He knew it was supposed to be Alice's brother López's big deal. Of course, there are many things that he didn't expect. Florentino has reached out to López. Prepare to oust Calderón from power. They are still waiting for their moment, waiting for Calderón to make another mistake.

Ahead of France's match with Spain, Real Madrid announced the resignation of German Schuster without explaining why. Let Tang be bombarded by the Spanish, British, and German media. Tang Jue fought back strongly in front of the media. Make it clear that this matter has nothing to do with you. It was entirely Calderón's decision.

The two took advantage of the matter. Spreading news among Real Madrid members, Calderón had a rift in his relationship with Tang Jue and criticized him for the interests of the Spanish Football Federation. Betraying the interests of Real Madrid. This sin is a big one, the president of Real Madrid does not consider the interests of the club, is such a person still worthy of being the president of Real Madrid?

As a result, there was a dark current among Real Madrid's members to oust Calderón from power. Florentino didn't take advantage of this dark tide to attack immediately, he knew that the time was not yet ripe, after all, Real Madrid had achieved an unprecedented treble in the season that had just ended.

Calderón has not explained the reason for Schuster's resignation until now, and the former Real Madrid president sees this as an opportunity, and he understands Tang's character. Real Madrid's number one star is at odds with the president, and the number one star is in his prime with a bright future and plenty of time to impress La Liga and the Champions League.

Especially in the Champions League, the number one star has dominated the Champions League best player and top scorer for three consecutive years, and no club can sell such a star. Florentino knew the reason why Tang Jue was still at Real Madrid, and that was that he wanted to fulfill his promise to Real Madrid's famous Di Stefano.

Sooner or later, Real Madrid's number one star will have a conflict with Calderón, and it was Florentino's judgment that when that day came, his chance came.

……

On the 16th, Real Madrid and his entourage flew to the United States, but this trip to the United States was not good for Real Madrid. They have played a total of three games with only two draws and one win. Real Madrid's luxurious midfield is lackluster, Tang Jue has not shown the level of the European Championship, and Kaka has not integrated into Real Madrid's attacking system.

Real Madrid's performance has been criticised by the media, including in the Madrid region, with Carlo Ancelotti bearing the brunt of the criticism, with Marca newspaper believing that he did not allow the combination of Kaka, Franck Ribery and Tang Jue to play as well as they should. World Sports News believes that Tang Jue is still on vacation, scoring only one goal and two assists in three games, and he seems to be sleepwalking on the field.

Ace believes that Real Madrid's midfield is a big problem, with Kaka and Sneijder overlapping positions, and the two have not organised Real Madrid's attack well.

On the 22nd, Real Madrid returned to Madrid to prepare for the first leg of the Spanish Super Cup, which began on the 24th. The Spanish Super Cup is a traditional cup competition in Spanish football, which is held annually by the Spanish Primera Liga winner against the Spanish Copa del Rey winner as the opening match before the start of the season. If the same team wins La Liga and the Copa del Rey, the Copa del Rey runners-up will be replaced.

Since Real Madrid won both La Liga and the Copa del Rey last season, their opponent in the Spanish Super Cup is Copa del Rey runners-up Barcelona. Barcelona's pre-match warm-up results were good, with two wins and one draw, so the media is more optimistic about Barcelona winning the Spanish Super Cup.

World Sports News yelled before the game: Barcelona wants to stop Real Madrid's six crowns!

The Daily Sports newspaper believes that this game is a preview before the La Liga title this season. Ace newspaper cheers for Real Madrid: The Spanish Super Cup is the first appearance of the two new managers. Carlo Ancelotti is more experienced, while Pep Guardiola has yet to coach in the first team, and although the results in the warm-up matches are good, it does not mean that the results in official competitions are inconsistent.

Marca newspaper still does not report hope for Real Madrid, believing that the so-called six crowns are just a dream, too unreal. With a chaotic midfield and a sluggish striker, what did Real Madrid rely on to win against Barcelona? Relying on Ancelotti's experience? Or by Ancelotti's fame?

Although Real Madrid fans are very hopeful that the team can win the fourth championship this year, they are not very optimistic about Real Madrid, after all, the team is not in good shape in the United States. Barcelona fans are full of confidence and expect Pep Guardiola to make a beautiful start in his first official game in charge of Barcelona, defeating Real Madrid at the Bernabeu and laying a solid foundation for the second leg. So that Barcelona can get the Super Cup trophy.

On the evening of the 22nd, Tang Jue said in an interview with Madrid TV: "This is the first game I played with Kaka again, and it was also the first game that Mr. Ancelotti led me again, so I will not allow myself to fail." ”

"I've said a long time ago that whoever stands in our way to winning the championship will run over us. No one can stop us from winning the championship, not before, and not in the future! ”

Tang Jue's words were still domineering, and Johansen wrote an article ridiculing him: "Three warm-up games, one goal, the ball boss continued to speak wildly. He said something funny, 'No one can stop us from winning the championship, not before, not in the future!' He has indeed won all the finals he has participated in before, but who can guarantee that he will be able to win all the finals in the future. ”

"Even God would not dare to say such a thing, and he is now arrogant to the extreme. Having won the World Cup and the European Championship in a row, the French star has been arrogant enough to take no one seriously. There are many accidents in this world, and the football stadium is a place full of accidents, and no one can win all the finals! ”

Not to be outdone, Daily Sports ridiculed: "On the night of the 24th, the football tyrant understood how ridiculous his arrogance was, and the Barcelona soldiers would give him a slap in the face to make him sober." ”

Obviously, not all the media is ridiculing Tang Jue. Winning the European Championship helped France regain its glory eight years ago, and the French media was so confident in Tang that they were blind. "Don is a man who does what he says, he wants to help Carlo Ancelotti and Kaka win their first title at Real Madrid. ”

"Despite Real Madrid's poor results in the warm-up and Don's sluggish form, he is a superstar born for the big scene. He is a proud man who wants to set a new record. Winning the Spanish Super Cup, he helped Real Madrid win four trophies and keep the chance of competing for a six-time crown. It's a must-win game for him! ”

"This game has another meaning, as Barcelona will have to overcome their biggest rivals if they want to get out of the slump of the previous two seasons, and this game is a starting point. And if Real Madrid wants to continue to maintain its advantage over Barcelona, it must win this game and give Barcelona a blow to the head. ”

"The outcome of this game will affect the morale of both teams at the start of the season, and as two teams with big ambitions, neither wants to start the season behind. Perhaps this match will give a glimpse of who will win La Liga this season. ”

Barcelona star Samuel Eto'o said in an interview with the media before the game: "The so-called boom and bust, Real Madrid has won three titles, and this championship belongs to Barcelona. ”

Kaka countered: "Real Madrid can't go up and down, I hope that the first official game for Real Madrid will end in victory. ”

Ramos said: "Three titles are not the end of the road for Real Madrid, we are aiming for six. We have not yet reached the apex of glory, and there is no such thing as prosperity and decline. ”

Compared with the positive statements of the players on both sides, the two new managers appear to be very low-key. Guardiola said: "I hope this game will allow the fans to see a different Barca. As for the final win, of course I want to win, but it's not the main thing, it's playing our new style. ”

Carlo Ancelotti said: "This is my first competitive game in charge of Real Madrid and I hope the fans will give more support and understanding. The team is not at its best and Barcelona are a super team, so whether the final game is won or lost, I want the fans to give us understanding. ”

The three major European gambling companies are offering odds for this Spanish Super Cup: Real Madrid to win 1.45 and Barcelona to win 1.40. In terms of odds, there is not much difference, and they are slightly bullish on Barcelona. (To be continued......)
