As the former derby of the century, the national match between Real Madrid and Barcelona has always been the focus of the world.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi have brought the attention of fans all over the world to La Liga.

With the disintegration of Barcelona's MSN and the departure of Cristiano Ronaldo to the Apennines, the stars of the national derby began to fade.

In order to find a partner for Messi, Barcelona has spent hundreds of millions of euros to bring in potential new stars such as Dembele, Coutinho and Griezmann.

However, the three did not play their best, and Griezmann, who was once regarded as the third in the world, performed mediocre after joining Barcelona and fell out of the top five in the world.

Starting with the Galaxy Battleship, Real Madrid has been a local tycoon who has spent a lot of money in the transfer market.

I thought that after losing the star of the house, Real Madrid President Florentino would buy a lot to make up for the lost star.

However, Real Madrid has only made a transfer of more than 100 million in the past three summer transfer windows, which is the introduction of Rossi from Bayern Munich.

And this alone has made the club make a lot of money in commercial income.

The addition of Rossi also made the Spanish national derby, which had been silent for a year, once again attract global attention.

In this Western Super Cup final, the organizers predict that about 250 million fans will watch the game.

But according to the current data, it has exceeded 500 million.

Although it could not break the 2016 Spanish national derby, it maintained the highest number of viewers at 650 million.

But when it comes to being a commercial competition, this rating is far beyond the highest rating of the event.

The intensity of today's game between the two sides is also worthy of all the fans who watched the game.

The scores of the two sides returned to the same running line again.

Although Barcelona led twice, Real Madrid has been chasing closely, which will invisibly increase their psychological burden.

As the game entered the last 15 minutes, the substitutions and adjustments of the coaches of both sides were particularly crucial.

Real Madrid, who took the initiative to attack, made another substitution.

Ernesto Valverde replaced Luka Modric and continued to strengthen the midfield.

Koeman and the assistant coach are in full swing to discuss the next steps for the team.

Is it to make alignment adjustments and maintain the current situation?

Or take some positive misses on the offensive end?

Real Madrid took the lead after the adjustments.

Isco took the ball from midfield and easily passed it into the box.

Rossi headed the ball to the back post after taking out Lenglet's defence as he dropped back to receive the ball.

Asensio, who cut forward, followed up with a low shot that grazed the outside edge of the far post and rolled off the line.

Seeing that the defence was so easily penetrated by the opponent, Koeman immediately began to adjust, removing Dembele and replacing him with Fati.

This substitution is part of a pre-planned strategy, allowing Dembele to wear down the opponent first, and then sending on a young Fati to strengthen the impact up front.

However, Zidane seems to have foreseen it, reducing Marcelo's forward attack and concentrating on defense, making Dembele's diversion on one side not obvious enough.

Less than a minute after Fati came on, he won the ball on the right flank and forced it to the bottom line, and then reversed the triangle back to the goal.

Messi reappeared at the receiving spot and fired a left-footed shot into the near corner.

Courtois fully extended his body and his arms straightened, like a wall, across the goal.

The ball grazed the post and went out of the bottom line, and it was only a fraction of a millimeter away from the goal, which caused a burst of regret from the fans.

Just as the ball flew out of the bottom line, Messi immediately raised his hand to signal that the ball was saved by the goalkeeper.

Every ball counts.

This reflects Messi's eagerness to win.

The referee did not waver and gave Real Madrid a goal kick.

Meanwhile, Barcelona continued to make substitutions.

Defender Mingueza replaces Lenglet.

Koeman is more defensive than attacking at this time.

Half of the credit for Real Madrid's two goals was due to the negligence of their own defenders.

Lenglet was repeatedly taken out of defense by Rossi, resulting in frequent blows in the gaps behind him.

As a drag-back centre-back, it was a fatal mistake.

Although Alba's defense often fails to return to his position in time, his role in the offensive end can drive Barcelona's speed and sharpness in the frontcourt.

If he didn't, his mistake with Rossi would be reason enough to be substituted by Koeman.

Minguza, who graduated from the La Masia Academy, in addition to having good physical fitness and tackles, also inherited the traditional characteristics of Barcelona in passing, and was expected by coach Koeman.

The centre-back combination of him and Araujo could be a guarantee for the Barça defence for the next decade.

Real Madrid continued to attack, and their pass was still easily passed through the Barcelona half.

Not only that, but in the pursuit of Barcelona, not only in the score, but also in every attack.

Every time Barcelona made a threatening attack, Real Madrid immediately responded in the next leg and never delayed until the second leg.

This kind of pressing chase will make the Barcelona players gradually anxious in their mentality.

In the 85th minute, Barcelona continued to make substitutions.

Pjanic replaces Pedri.

The substitution adjustment in this time period shows that Barcelona is most prepared for extra time.

And most importantly, it is to limit Real Madrid's long balls.

Koeman's all-attacking and all-defensive tactics require the players to have plenty of physical strength to support them.

But Koeman, who has only been in office for half a season, will not be able to improve the physical reserves of Barcelona players in a short period of time.

The high-intensity rhythm of the game made the players often pull their hips in the last ten minutes of the game.

In the past, against some mid-to-lower players, they were able to rely on passing to stabilize their rhythm.

However, the opponent is Real Madrid, and the trend of serious decline in physical fitness is even more obvious.

Before Pjanic could settle into the game, Real Madrid scored from a set-piece through Rossi.

Although it was ruled offside by the referee, the goal was invalidated.

But Barcelona is sleepwalking in the defense just now.

Koeman roared with rage and was unhappy with his players' performance.

Barcelona, who escaped, quickly instigated an attack by Messi after the kick-off, and he completed the shot.

As the captain of Barcelona, Messi hopes to inspire his teammates and lead the team to victory in this way.

As everyone knows, his teammates rely too much on his personal ability, which makes Barcelona lose its strong desire to persist in fighting when facing difficulties.

Messi can't do it, how can we do it.

The Barcelona players were ready for extra time, but Real Madrid still refused to give up any attacking opportunities.

In the 89th minute, Isco won the ball on the left rib and was immediately caught by three Barcelona defenders.

At this time, Barcelona's defense has fully retreated, and even Griezmann has returned to the outside of the penalty area to participate in the defense.

Isco couldn't break through the three-man Barcelona head-on and quickly passed the ball to Rossi on the left side of the box.

In the face of the interception of many Barcelona players, Rossi had no room to pass the ball at all, so he could only bring back first and look for opportunities.

Araujo didn't immediately step forward to interfere because he saw that his retreating teammate Antoine Griezmann was next to Rossi.

As long as Rossi's passing lane is blocked, he can only pass the ball back behind him.

Obviously, Griezmann thinks the same way.

There is another reason why he does not dare to grab, that is, he is afraid that he will lose to the defensive position if he makes a reckless grab.

Facing a somewhat loose defence, Rossi pulled the ball back with his left foot, and after making a slight adjustment of his body, he pumped his right foot to the bottom of the ball.

Bang!

A "cloud-piercing arrow" pierced the air and went straight to the upper corner of the far goalpost.

what？

Everyone, including the Real Madrid players, didn't expect that Rossi actually shot at goal.

Or in the case of multiple defenders in the box.

Normally, Rossi rarely shoots directly at this position.

If you don't rob it, then I'll be on it.

Ter Schgent gasped even more, and his face turned pale.

Rossi's leg swing when he shot was very subtle, leaving him with a delay in his judgment.

And when he flew to the ball, he knew it was too late.

While!

The ball hit the underside of the crossbar and bounced to the ground, before being cleared by the oncoming Mingueza kick.

Benzema was the closest to the goal, raising his hand and cheering when the ball bounced to the ground.

But after Mingueza cleared the siege, he immediately raised his right hand and kept shaking it to signal that the goal had not been scored.

The dispute between the two sides broke out again.

[Oh, there was a controversy on the field! 】

[Real Madrid players think the goal has been scored!] 】

[But Barcelona didn't think it went in!] 】

[The referee's decision is very crucial! 】

[This is a lore ball!] 】

[Although goal-line technology has long been introduced in the game!] 】

[The watch worn by the referee can receive the results of system analysis!] 】

[But the final decision is announced by the referee.] 】

It is precisely because of this that the players on both sides are so excited and surround the referee.

De Burgos Benguechea, as the referee of the match, looked a little complicated after taking a look at the surface of his hand.

As the referee of the national derby, there is a lot of pressure in itself.

Now facing a crucial decision, no matter what choice is made, there will be unprovoked attacks from fans on the other side after the game.

To be on the safe side, he decided to start VAR.

He ran to the screen on the sidelines and asked the system room to bring up the goal screen and confirm it repeatedly.

The fans in the stadium are waiting with bated breath for the result.

This penalty will directly affect the outcome of the game and the ownership of the championship.

After a moment, Benguechea's eyes were determined, his hands drew a box, and finally his right hand pointed to the middle circle.

The goal works!

Real Madrid reversed!
