Real Madrid narrowly beat Levante 3-2 away to get three points.

At the end of the eighth round of the league, Real Madrid was six wins, one draw and one loss, with 19 points, and is still ranked third in La Liga.

The top two are still Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, both teams have won all since the beginning of the league, and they have performed very well, they both have 24 points, and they are already five points ahead of Real Madrid, which is still a big advantage.

At this time, the Spanish media are looking down on Real Madrid, and they believe that Real Madrid has basically no league title this season.

Journalists in the media believe that Real Madrid are now weak, and their players are not very eager to win in the new season, and it seems that the brilliant achievements of last season have addicted Real Madrid's players.

Media reporters pointed out that no player can just win the Grand Slam, and still have the initial passion, this season, Real Madrid's players are difficult to have last year's passion and performance, this season Real Madrid is destined to be weak, which is why there is no defending team in the Champions League.

Even Spain's Marca newspaper is a little unoptimistic about Real Madrid, who believe that Real Madrid is likely to lose the league title this season.

Marca reminds Real Madrid's players to take care of themselves, otherwise this season will really be the end of Real Madrid.

At this time, there are more media reports in foreign media that are not optimistic about Real Madrid, and they do not think that Real Madrid still has the same momentum as last year.

Moreover, this season, the state of Barcelona and Atletico Madrid is very hot, and the strength has increased greatly, so Real Madrid has no chance.

However, there are also many people who are still optimistic about Real Madrid, in fact, the beginning of this season is similar to the start of the league last season, at the beginning of last season, Real Madrid's performance is still not very good, and Barcelona and Atletico Madrid are also so hot, performing very well, but in the end it was Real Madrid who won the league championship!

Therefore, these people still think that Real Madrid will definitely be the champion of this season, and Real Madrid is now accumulating, waiting for the opportunity, and when the time comes, it will definitely soar to 90,000 miles.

And Real Madrid is really not so optimistic inside, Benitez is a small summary of Real Madrid's players.

After the eighth round of the league without round, the international break is coming again, and the players will leave the club to return to their respective national teams.

La Liga will be suspended for half a month during this time period, and at this time, Benitez gave Real Madrid a small conclusion.

Benitez said at the meeting that Real Madrid's performance at this stage is actually not ideal, although Real Madrid now have such and such problems, but this is not a reason.

After all, Barcelona's problem is bigger than that of Real Madrid, but they have been changing managers continuously, and they can all have such performances, which shows that Real Madrid people are not doing enough at this stage.

Of course, in this meeting, Benitez did not criticize anyone, it is a problem for the whole team, and he himself has to take responsibility.

The purpose of Benitez's meeting is not to hold them accountable, but to remind the Real Madrid players that after the Real Madrid players come back from the national team, they must have a correct attitude, play well, get back what they lost as soon as possible, and then surpass Barcelona and Atletico Madrid.

The Real Madrid players said at the meeting that they would give their all when they returned, and they called for a better chance of overtaking Barcelona.

Dongfang Chen is full of expectations for this season, and he firmly believes that they can win the final championship this season. Although Real Madrid seem to be a little behind at the moment, the season has only just begun, and they still have a chance.

Dongfang Chen knows very well that it is impossible for Barcelona and Atletico Madrid not to make mistakes, and he is now waiting for the opportunity for Barcelona and Atletico Madrid to make mistakes.

After this meeting, the Real Madrid players went their separate ways.

Real Madrid's players are almost all internationals, and when the national team break arrives, there is hardly anyone training on the club's training grounds.

At this time, Dongfang Chen did not fly back to China, but went directly to Barcelona.

Because the Chinese men's football team came to Barcelona, Spain, because during this international break, the Chinese men's football team only had one warm-up match, and the opponent of this warm-up match was the Spanish national team.

The head coach of the Chinese men's football team, Gao Hongbo, arranged the match, which is preparing for next year's World Cup.

Moreover, in the Confederations Cup, the Chinese men's football team played against the Spanish national team, and in the end, the Chinese men's football team defeated the Spanish national team on penalties.

The reason why the Chinese men's football team only has one game on this national team match day is that now the domestic Chinese Super League has reached the most critical moment, and in this national team match day, the Chinese Super League still has games to play.

In order to break away from the Chinese Super League, the Chinese men's football team only arranged one game in this international competition.

But the strength of the opponent in this game is not weak at all.

Gao Hongbo attaches great importance to this game, since they can beat the Spanish national team once, why can't they win the second time?

Gao Hongbo hopes that the Chinese men's football team will be more confident and will not be afraid when facing strong teams in Europe. Gao Hongbo wants to make it normal for the Chinese men's football team to face the world's strongest teams, and after experiencing more such games, the players of the Chinese men's football team will grow.

Not all of the 32 teams in the World Cup are now being produced, but they are coming soon.

The draw for next year's World Cup group will be held in December this year, and it is now just October, with two months to go.

At this time, most of the teams that have qualified for the World Cup have been selected, but there are still a small number of teams that have not been produced, and this national team break is the last and most intense time in the competition for World Cup places.

The Asian race was over on the last day of the national team break.

The teams in Asia are now in the round of 32 for the World Cup, with Iran, South Korea, China and Japan taking the final half of the spots.

Australia will compete for half of the South American spot to qualify for the last 32 of the World Cup.

At this time, the competition for the South American zone has not yet become clear, so it is not clear who Australia will meet.

But a lot of Asian media are sweating for Australia, after all, the strength of South American teams is not very weak, if Australia's luck is a little worse, if it meets a strong team, Australia will almost have no chance to go to the World Cup.

The Chinese team got the World Cup quota very early, and now they are bound to relax, and their main thing now is to prepare for the World Cup.

This is also the second time that the Chinese men's football team has reached the World Cup, and the domestic demand for the Chinese men's football team is unprecedentedly high, after all, the Chinese men's football team has just created a miracle in the Confederations Cup and won the Confederations Cup. This makes many Chinese fans lost, many people think that the Chinese men's football team is now a world-class powerhouse, and the Chinese men's football team has the ability to compete for the World Cup.

The Chinese media is even more crazy, they seem to be talking about the Chinese men's football team as a seeded team, and in their opinion, the Chinese men's football team is the favorite to win the World Cup.

Yes, even little Japan dared to shout that they would win the World Cup, why couldn't the Chinese team shout?

Yes, at this time, the Japanese media are claiming that they will win the World Cup. And Keisuke Honda, the number one star of the Japanese national team, is clamoring in front of various media that their Japanese team will win the World Cup in Brazil.

The Japanese national team has achieved good results in recent years, and its strength is also very good, but it is not strong enough to do so. And in the past two years, the results of the Japanese national football team are not as good as the results of the Chinese men's football team. We're the winners of the Confederations Cup!

Yes, a Confederations Cup winner has driven China's media people crazy.

When facing the Spanish national team again this time, the Chinese media are very confident, and they all firmly believe that the Chinese men's football team will easily defeat the Spanish national team and win again.

In China, the hype is very hot, but Gao Hongbo is very calm, he knows what the situation of the team is now? He didn't pay attention to the reporters, and now he is all focused on coaching the team.

Facing the Spanish national team this time is still a very big challenge for the Chinese men's football team.

Although the Chinese men's football team has just defeated the Spanish national team not long ago, there is a lot of luck in it, which does not represent the strength of the two teams. Gao Hongbo is aware of the gap between the Chinese men's football team and the Spanish national team.

After coming to Spain, Gao Hongbo has been emphasizing to the players of the Chinese men's football team that they must not despise their opponents, let alone look down on themselves. They want the players of the Chinese men's football team to find their own position, and they are still the same Chinese team.

Of course, this is difficult, Gao Hongbo is a sentence or two that does not wake up the players of the Chinese men's football team.

In the current Chinese men's football team, some players are a little floating, thinking that they are the champions of the Confederation Cup, Gao Hongbo is in his eyes and anxious in his heart.

According to the current psychological state of the Chinese men's football players, if they go to play the game, there is only one result, lose! There is no doubt about losing.

Now this is Gao Hongbo's most important job now, to adjust the mentality of Chinese men's football players.

After coming to Spain, the players of the Chinese men's football team have devoted themselves to training, and they still know that the Spanish team is very strong. They don't think they can easily beat Spain, but they just won against Spain not long ago, and the players of the Chinese men's football team did not pay much attention to it.

As soon as Dongfang Chen came to this team, he found out about the problems of this team, his brows furrowed slightly, he really didn't expect the Chinese men's football team to be in such a situation now?
