Real Madrid's bus slowly drove towards the Rose Garden Stadium.

Wait for the bus to stop.

The first to walk out of the door was Real Madrid manager Jose Mourinho.

Facing the camera and the microphone, Mourinho showed his trademark inscrutable smile and walked all the way into the stadium.

Behind him.

The Real Madrid players also look quite relaxed.

In fact, this game is the advantage of Real Madrid from any point of view - after a war of attrition between Malaga and Barcelona, this game did not even dare to rotate, and Real Madrid had a rotation of five players.

It's the end of the season.

It's all about physical fitness!

Cristiano. Ronaldo is smiling, always full of confidence.

"Ronaldo, now Yelo has scored 39 league goals and you have only scored 31 goals, what do you think about that?"

A reporter asked in a loud voice.

Cristiano. Ronaldo froze and looked at the provocative reporter, his face became gloomy.

By the time he got into the locker room.

All Real Madrid players felt Cristiano. Ronaldo's anger.

Jose Mourinho walked in.

"Beating them head-on is the best way to win!"

He said.

Cristiano. Ronaldo raised his head: "I'll crush their 1"

"Good!"

Mourinho smiled.

It's a little incredible, though.

But he also has to admit that Malaga is indeed a title contender this season.

this game.

Yes, it's a final!

But what Mourinho is best at is playing key battles!

When the players on both sides come out to warm up.

The sports channel of Longguo National Television has already started to broadcast live.

The current time is 0:30 a.m. BJ.

There is still one hour left before the start of the game.

It stands to reason.

The advertising fee of Dragon Country National Television is so expensive, and it is rare for a game to have this treatment - the live broadcast starts an hour before the game, and then some guests and experts start to talk nonsense.

After all, not many people like to watch this.

But the backstage ratings are realistic, and there are indeed many fans who are turning on the TV to watch the warm-up an hour before the game.

This battle of Tianwang Mountain is related to the key battle of whether Malaga can win the championship - although it is said that if you win this game, Malaga may not necessarily be able to win the championship, but at least, the initiative to win the championship is in your own hands.

And if you lose this game.

Then Maraga will probably miss out on the title - Mourinho's side will not be able to capsize in the gutter against the underdogs in the final rounds of the league and give Malaga a chance to catch up.

Not to mention.

Even one game capsizing in the gutter isn't enough.

If Malaga loses, they are five points behind Real Madrid!

With a five-point difference, it will take at least two games to catch up - Real Madrid will need to lose two of their remaining five games and Malaga will win all to recover.

It's almost impossible.

Therefore, there is no way back for Malaga.

Not even a draw – the draw was still Real Madrid's lead.

So in this game, even if the game time is not friendly to the audience in the Dragon Country, there are also a large number of viewers in the Dragon Country in front of various screens, cheering for Ye Luo.

In fact, it started at half past one in the morning, and it was already La Liga that took care of the audience in the Dragon Country - many La Liga games started at half past three in the morning, or even five in the morning - it's okay at five in the morning, sleep and get up early to watch the game, go to work/school after watching, and die at half past three in the morning. ‘

Speaking of which.

Real Madrid are already on a three-game losing streak against Malaga – and if they lose this game, it's four in a row.

So although the last time the Madrid media was hyping "no team has ever sent Real Madrid to three consecutive defeats", this thing was slapped in the face.

But this time, there are still many Madrid media from a metaphysical point of view, Real Madrid should not lose four in a row, right?

Home team dressing room.

When the players warmed up and returned, the windows and doors were closed.

The hustle and bustle of the stadium seemed to be cut off, except for a few sounds that seemed to come from afar.

Málaga coach Manuel Pellegrini makes the final pre-match mobilization.

"Fifteen minutes to go, the game is about to start. The importance of this game does not need to be said, everyone knows it very well, I will not fool myself and say that this is an ordinary league or something, this is a crucial battle related to the league title race! If we lose, or even just draw, the championship is very far away from us! This season we have come to this point beyond a lot of people's expectations, and to be honest, beyond my expectations, this is La Liga, and Malaga used to be just a lift in Spanish professional football, La Liga, La Liga, and even La B B. We're just small guys, we're playing against a giant team, but we've beaten them three times in a row. ”

Pellegrini held out three fingers.

"Three times!"

He said.

"So, it's not us who should be afraid, it's them! They've lost three in a row against us, and two more have come on their home turf! Doesn't that mean anything? ”

"We're just one last step away from winning the championship! As long as we grit our teeth and fight for this last stretch of the schedule, we can make history for this team and create unprecedented glory!! ”

"Now the thing is simple, beat them! Only then can we win the championship!! Use these 90 minutes to prove to everyone that we are not the runners of the league, we are not some small team that dares to covet the La Liga title, we are the champions! We have the strength of a champion!! ”

Pellegrini's speech has obviously been prepared for a long time.

The manuscript is memorized very well.

Stir up a group of players to boil, snorting their feet, like wild horses about to break free, ready to trample the enemies in front of them to the ground and step on thousands of feet.

Meanwhile.

In the dressing room of Real Madrid.

It's different from being confident on the outside.

Mourinho's face was solemn.

"I know that the comments in the media these days are very optimistic about us, yes, we are two points ahead, we are four points ahead of Barcelona, we are still at the top of the table even if we draw, it's really good, it doesn't seem like there is much to worry about."

Jose Mourinho looks at his players.

"Right? Tell me, are these statements correct? ”

No one answered.

"It seems that no one thinks that these statements are right, and that's good. Forget about these things, forget about being two points ahead, forget about draws. I tell you, in the arena, there is only victory, or defeat, there are only two options! If you can't win, you lose! If you come to this game with the mentality of playing a draw, you will definitely lose! Remember! We have only one goal. That's on their home turf, beat them!! ”

The Real Madrid players are also excited.

Real Madrid haven't won La Liga for three seasons.

These three seasons.

These three years.

Real Madrid was overwhelmed by Barcelona.

In the past three years, Barcelona has won two Champions League titles, won three consecutive league championships, and has become an unprecedented six-time champion!

These three years have been the era of Barcelona.

Mourinho joined Real Madrid to break Barcelona's rule!

Now it seems that he has done a good job, at least in the past two seasons of Barcelona's encounter, Real Madrid has not fallen behind against Barcelona, and this season he also beat Barcelona at home, four points ahead of Barcelona!

Although this season there was a sudden appearance of Malaga - it was an unexpected surprise.

However, just beat Malaga in this game.

This accident didn't make any waves.

Beating Malaga is basically the same as winning La Liga!

this game.

Real Madrid's players are definitely going to give it their all!

When the players from both teams show up on the pitch.

The televised footage gave a close-up of almost every key player.

In the end, the camera stayed on Yelo and Ronaldo for the longest time.

The number one star of both teams, the superstar, and the scorer king who is quite explosive in scoring ability, is also very likely to be the master of this game.

"The players on both sides are already on the pitch! The race is about to begin! ”

Duan Xuan's voice seemed a little excited.

In the commentary seat at the scene, Andres also took a deep breath: "The game is about to start, this is a key battle for the La Liga title, and this may even be a preview of the Champions League final!" ”

Andres made a little joke, as if trying to reduce the tension of the match.

However, his words soon made him scolded by Barcelona fans and became a Spanish Internet hit.

After all, the Champions League semi-finals aren't over yet.

"The importance of this game is self-evident, Cazorla started on Malaga's comeback, and although Real Madrid made a rotation, their rotation players are also top players, the strength is self-evident, on the bench, Real Madrid is also full of elite soldiers! From the point of view of book strength, Real Madrid has an advantage, but football is not a game of chess, the players' performance on the field is the most important!! And, of course, more importantly, Malaga has Yelo! This is their greatest confidence! ”

Duan Xuan said loudly.

The voice just fell.

The referee blew the whistle for the start of the game.

It was Malaga who kicked off first.

Baptista kicked the ball towards the back.

Cazorla, who had returned from injury, received the ball and then passed it in.

This choice of pass is an indication of the mentality of both sides in this game.

Caution!

Neither side dared to act too rashly.

The battle of Tianwang Mountain that people are looking forward to should be extremely hot, enthusiastic, with a fast pace of attack and defense, and players on both sides engaged in fierce offensive battles.

But it's a pity.

This only exists in people's imaginations.

As a matter of fact.

Both Malaga and Real Madrid played cautiously in the opening stages.

There is no good opportunity, and I would rather return the pass.

This is also normal, the final is nameless.

In such an important game, no one wants to make mistakes, and it is natural to be conservative and cautious.

The two sides chose to maneuver and probe.

Seven or eight minutes passed.

Neither team had a shot on goal.

This shows how cautious the two teams are.

And it also fully shows that these two teams are actually very mature.

There is a lot of excitement in the dressing room, and when you get on the pitch, you can calm down immediately.

On the football field, it's not okay to be hot-headed.

Emotions can win one or two games.

But the league is a marathon.

Winning by playing chicken blood lasted too short.

Both Real Madrid and Malaga have won nine in a row this season.

To be able to win nine games in a row is not something that can be sustained by playing chicken blood.

What is needed is a mature system and a mature mentality.

The team that can compete for the championship in the league must be a team with a very stable mentality - this may be the so-called championship mentality.

A championship team, in addition to being superior in skills and tactics, must also be superior in the adjustment of psychological state.

Cristiano. Ronaldo is one of the easier players to pick up.

But now he can hold back seven or eight minutes without shooting, patiently interspersing, running.

10th minute of the game.

The game scene is finally starting to make waves!

Shaheen received the ball in front of him and slid it into the left side of the box.

Shaheen moved to Real Madrid from Borussia Dortmund this season.

As the heart of Borussia Dortmund's midfield, there is no doubt that Shaheen has a strong individual quality.

But after coming to Real Madrid, Shaheen was a little uncomfortable.

He didn't get much of a chance.

He was able to get the chance to start in this crucial battle entirely because Kaka was injured, and the evil beggar had some calf muscle tightness and was now sitting on the bench.

Shahin, who got the chance to start, naturally worked hard and wanted to impress Mourinho.

There are already rumours that Shaheen will be sold by Real Madrid once Isco's transfer to Real Madrid is completed.

He came to Real Madrid from Borussia Dortmund against all odds.

Sold off after a season, Shahin's self-esteem was hit hundreds of times over.

For Shahin, there is not much time left for him.

He was convinced.

If he fails to show what it takes to satisfy Jose Mourinho, the beggars will take his place in the second half.

This through ball shows Shaheen's ability to deliver the ball threateningly!

The ball passed through the crowd and was accurately caught in the fleeting space in the ribs of the penalty area.

And right now.

A white figure rushed into the forbidden area!

"Cristiano. Ronaldo!! He received the ball in the ribs of the box!! ”

Narrator Andres exclaimed.

In the stands.

The Real Madrid fans burst into cheers, but the next moment they were silenced by the boos of the Malaga fans.

Ronaldo, who entered the penalty area, made a left-footed direct shot, and after Demichelis made a blocking action, he buckled the ball to his right with his heel, cut to the middle, and raised his foot to shoot!!

Moment of truth.

Tulalang almost desperately jumped and blocked Ronaldo's burst shot out of the bottom line with his head!

"Ahh!!h Ronaldo!! Ronaldo!! Ahh On the commentary seat, the Madrid commentator held his head in his hands and almost jumped up from the commentary seat.

"Cristiano. Ronaldo!! Closely!! Tulalang's defense is too crucial!! Real Madrid were the first to attack!! Andres exclaimed.

Duan Xuan was also almost scared out of a cold sweat by this ball.

"It's dangerous!! Real Madrid suddenly made a force, and Malaga's defense was unprepared, allowing Ronaldo to get a chance, but fortunately, it was Tulalang's even if he came back to block and resolve the crisis!! ”

Cristiano Ronaldo was almost beating his chest when he stood in the penalty area.

He roared and stared at the Malaga goal, swearing in his heart that he would get the ball into the damn goal.

And his shot also opened the key to the next stage of this game.

Tentative phase, over!

The race is starting to get on track!

Cristiano Ronaldo had just threatened Malaga's goal with a blast.

Back in time, Malaga has to be in color!

Ye Luo received the ball on the left side, cut inside and made a shot, so that Real Madrid's defenders immediately pounced to block, and in this process, Real Madrid's defense also had a hole, Ye Luo faked a real pass, and sent the ball to the left side of the penalty area!

Isco plugged in at high speed, received the ball on the left side of the penalty area and wiped it inward!

"Isco!!"

The commentators chanted.

Another highlight of this game is Isco.

He is very likely to be a Real Madrid player next season, and if he personally takes away Real Madrid's hope of winning La Liga, it will look good when he arrives at Real Madrid next season

How will he deal with his new teammates?

Isco doesn't think about that right now.

He slowed down in the face of Coentrão's defence and then looked at Yelo's position for the first time.

Pass the ball to Yelo at the first time.

This is the first choice for many Malaga players.

At this time, he did see Ye Luo who was inserting into the forbidden area.

It stands to reason.

He can just hand the ball to Yelo now.

Although Ye Luo has Longtan Tiger's Den in front of him, Ye Luo can create a threat as long as he gets the ball in the penalty area.

However, Isco has his own ideas, and now passing the ball, the probability of scoring is not very high.

After he made a passing feint, a Xu Huang, turned around, and forced Coentrão!

Coentrão was shaken, but he reacted quickly, and immediately turned around and gave chase!

Anyway, Isco's absolute speed is not too fast, and there is not much space in front of him.

The more Isco dribbles the ball to the baseline, the less chance he has.

Coentrão quickly chased back and put enough pressure on Isco.

In the face of Coentrão's defense, Isco made a sharp stop, changed direction, and got rid of!

Changing direction again, he was out of Coentrão's defense at once, but just when everyone thought Isco was going to shoot, he suddenly stopped, one foot dangling in the air, the other foot kept jumping forward, his expression was painful, and finally he sat down on the ground.

Coentrand was stunned, and he subconsciously held the ball and was about to launch a counterattack.

Ye Luo slid the ball off the sideline, then hurriedly got up and shouted to the referee.

"Our people are hurt!"

He hurried to Isco.

"What's wrong?"

Isco looked pained.

"It's like. Muscle strain. ”

"Cao!"

Ye Luo scolded in a low voice.

It's also unlucky.

If you strain your muscles in such a critical battle, you basically can't hold on.

Málaga not only has one less main player, but also has to waste a substitution.

He also knew why Isco was injured.

He must have been influenced by public opinion.

He wants to prove his professionalism through his performance.

But. I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry.

The media coverage still had an impact on Malaga.

The team doctor quickly came up and said, "Isco, Isco, you can't play this game."

The team doctor made a substitution gesture to the sidelines.

"Damn it!"

When Pellegrini saw it, he couldn't help but curse.

However, he still asked assistant coach Maroska to inform substitute Bonotna to warm up.
