1116 He is the best in the world
At the post-match press conference at the Bernabeu, what awaits Pellegrini is a stormy trial of public opinion.
The Madrid media and the Spanish media are eager to "break Pellegrini's body into pieces"!
To put it in the words of a private discussion among journalists: Pellegrini watched Real Madrid be slaughtered by the Red Army!
When Manuel Pellegrini appeared at the press conference, the reporters in the audience raised their hands to ask questions.
The journalist from Marca newspaper unceremoniously asked: "How exactly did Real Madrid prepare for this game?" Did you completely see yourself as a spectator at the game? Watching Real Madrid get beaten to the ground by Liverpool is what you should do as a manager? ”
Pellegrini defended weakly: "In the early stages of the game we conceded a goal, after two goals, we had to strengthen the attack in order to turn the opponent around, Liverpool played very smart today, they put on a defensive counter-attacking position, with the strength of the Liverpool team, if you play a defensive counter-attack, it will cause problems for any team in the world." I feel lost by a big score, the team is eliminated, the players' emotions are at rock bottom, everyone seems to have suffered a huge trauma, I have a lot of responsibility, I will not run away, but we still have to look forward and not be able to dwell on this big defeat, it will not help the future of Real Madrid. ”
Journalists didn't buy it, and the team's newspaper, As, lashed out even more fiercely.
"You swore before the game that Real Madrid were ready and confident of coming back at home, but in the game. We don't see Real Madrid preparing so well. Not even a minute of the game was under Real Madrid's control. Where is your track record? Does Real Madrid just think that if the venue is changed from Anfield to the Bernabeu, Real Madrid's combat effectiveness will be greatly improved, while Liverpool's combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced? ”
Pellegrini was embarrassed to admit the reality.
'I have to say that Liverpool were better, the tactics they used, the overall performance of the team, including the mentality of the players, were better than Real Madrid, so they won. As for Real Madrid's lack of control of the game, I think the bigger reason is because we are under too much pressure. ”
"Just say when you're going to quit!"
A Spanish reporter said in an impatient tone that was depressed in everyone's hearts.
Knocked out of the Champions League 3-10, Real Madrid need someone to take on the responsibility, and there is no doubt that manager Manuel Pellegrini will bear the brunt.
The press conference turned into a media collective bombardment of Pellegrini and "accountability", Pellegrini was not good at dealing with such a scene, and he could not imagine that his situation would end up in "rebellion" after the match against the Reds.
He had just returned to the dressing room to appease the Real Madrid players, but no player wanted to talk to him, and he was sensitive to the fact that even the players were beginning to distrust him, probably because they felt that his ability could not control the team's dressing room. At the same time, they were unable to lead Real Madrid to glory, especially in tough battles. In the face of key battles, it is difficult for Real Madrid to produce a convincing performance, which is naturally directly related to the ability of the manager
Koeman's post-match press conference was full of red light.
Fleet Street awaited the arrival of the Dutch coach, and after Coman sat down, The Times' Howard asked: "Liverpool beat Real Madrid 10-3 over two legs, Liverpool performed even better at the Bernabeu than at Anfield, what is the secret of Liverpool's victory?" ”
Koeman calmly and proudly said: "Unity! Liverpool showed the unity of an 11-man unit! I don't agree with you, we also performed very well at Anfield, it is very difficult for an opponent of Real Madrid's level not to let the opponent score, I can only say that Real Madrid's performance today has dropped a lot compared to the last game, because they look like a mess, they did show the determination and will to turn the game around, but in terms of execution, it is not necessarily better than the last game. ”
"Why? It's the Bernabeu after all, so why is Real Madrid's performance declining? ”
Coman shrugged his shoulders and said: "We have always known that Real Madrid is a team that has been ravaged by pressure, maybe the team has been too brilliant in the past, maybe the team has invested a lot, they have the most luxurious squad in the world, and the expectation of Real Madrid has always been the champion, the champion, the champion, if Real Madrid can't win the title, it is a failure, this is a big source of pressure for Real Madrid, because of this, at the Bernabeu, they are more stressed, and this pressure will make them more anxious and flustered." , especially after we scored, Real Madrid's performance was getting worse and worse. ”
The Telegraph's Thomas asked: "Today Liverpool put out an asymmetrical 442 formation, which was weakened before the game, but the attacking effect became better, what kind of thinking is this based on?" ”
Koeman was quite proud of this, and said with a smile: "We established a 5:3 lead in the first leg, and when we come to the Bernabeu, we will definitely withstand Real Madrid's more fierce attack, so we must first defend solidly, so today I used the formation of Lucas + Mascherano with two defensive backs, and I think that only Qin Xiong and Torres are enough in the attack, because Real Madrid's defense will definitely be flawed under the huge investment in attack, and we will not lack opportunities, and it turns out that my idea is right." I would like to thank the players, who have taken their chances again and again and dealt them a painful blow to Real Madrid. ”
"Let's comment on Qin Xiong's performance."
"I have nothing to say, the best compliments in the world have been given to him, he is the best player in the world, the best player in the world, thank God, he is part of Liverpool, he played another good game, I can only say that it is the best time for the fans, they can appreciate Qin Xiong's performance on the pitch, this is the happiest thing, and for Liverpool, we are also happy."
Not only Koeman, but many Liverpool players interviewed after the game were full of praise for Qin Xiong, publicly admiring Qin Xiong as the best player in the world.
Looking ahead to the quarter-finals of the Champions League, Koeman has become low-key again.
'There are no underdogs to get to the quarter-finals, we don't pick and choose, all we have to do is adjust our mentality, take it seriously game by game, try to win, and then let's see what happens.' (To be continued.) )
