Chapter 593： Preliminary round

593 Preliminary

Countless Real Madrid fans are looking forward to one thing throughout the summer, that is, what will the team's premiere in the Santiago Bernabeu look like and what surprises will be brought to the fans, will Yang Cheng lead Real Madrid hit a hearty victory?

Yang Cheng's home win rate is very high. Although he has lost at home, it is very rare. Unlike Chelsea's Mourinho, he has been unbeaten at home for many years. However, purely in terms of win rate, Yang Cheng's home record To surpass Mourinho.

This also made many football fans with anticipation and packed the stands of the Bernabeu Stadium. They hoped to witness the moment when Caesar led the galactic warship to sail.

Yang Cheng also kept emphasizing before the game that the first game of the league is always particularly difficult. He hopes that all players can go all out and play the best state, but no one thought that the final game will be a piecemeal. The first game.

0: 0!

This is certainly not a worthy game. The most watched game in the whole game is Villarreal fighting back and Real Madrid making mistakes.

In the first 25 minutes of the opening, Real Madrid played a very amazing "yan", a bit like playing against the Royal Salt Lake City in the United States during the training session, and the first half of the Bernabeu Cup. The overall attack is very sharp and smooth, especially the back and forth of the attacking players It is even more addictive to pass on and cooperate with people.

The players showed "color", the ball "fans" were excited, the stands of the Bernabeu Stadium were so excited that they almost wanted to tear their throats, and even the TV commentators shouted, XX is too beautiful, XX The call of a certain pass is too creative, the whole Real Madrid's attack in the midfield is very smooth.

"It doesn't look like a team that has just been established for less than two months. It's like it has been a team for many years. The tacit understanding is so good. The offense is like mercury. The superstars like Zidane are here. Time is more gorgeous and more enjoyable. "

"The only imperfection is that Villa obviously played for the first time with so many" fans "paying attention, especially in the Bernabeu, the ability to seize the opportunity is slightly worse, missing Raul and Beckham respectively Two excellent scoring opportunities created for him, but according to the current momentum, Real Madrid will definitely be able to win this game, or even a big victory! "

Raul performed very well. His running and coping with "insertion" made Real Madrid's frontcourt offensive very smooth. Beckham's cross can always tear the opponent's defense time and time again. David? Elva's breakthrough and inward cut on the left also showed that he has the ability to replace Zidane.

Harvey Alonso and Mascherano's double midfielder completely suppressed Villarreal's midfield. Riquelme under Mascherano's care, there was no action at all. .

The back line formed by Aveloa, Cannavaro, Thuram and Salgado is very stable. Even in the first half hour, Villarreal did not even give a shot to the ball. For the "door" opportunity, the Casillas Cup commentator ridiculed that this game is likely to become a decoration.

It can be said that the Real Madrid watch in the first half hour is really "great" and too smooth!

However, after Pellegrini realized that the team gave Real Madrid too much space in the backcourt, Somoza came off the bench and formed a double back with Senna. Carney also retreated to participate in the defense. This made Villarreal's midfield immediately strong and restricted the space.

As Yang Cheng said before, Real Madrid has just been formed. After a long period of drills and training, they are already familiar with offensive routines and players, but it takes time to play a tacit understanding, especially at that high level. A tacit understanding in the intensity of the confrontation requires a long time of accumulation.

There is room for Real Madrid to play well, as if it was against the Royal Salt Lake City team and the first half against Anderlecht, but once they are oppressed by strong defense, the lack of understanding between Real Madrid players will be violent "Lu" has nothing left.

This is also the case in this game, Pellegrini's team is devoted to defensive attention, and even at the expense of their own offense, which made Real Madrid's offense immediately contained.

If the first 30 minutes were Real Madrid ’s gorgeous show, then it became a fighting arena for both sides, **** and brutal.

The result of 0: 0 makes Real Madrid ’s "fans" very unpleasant, but after the game, they still gave the team applause and encouragement. At least they are very clear. The gorgeous performance in the first half hour is enough to make people High hopes for Real Madrid's future.

At the post-match press conference at the end of this game, Yang Cheng spoke highly of Villarreal's defense.

"Pellegrini has trained a strong team that is very good. They have caused us a lot of difficulties in defense. Our start is good, but we do not have enough control over the rhythm. In the face of defensive oppression At that time, lack of self-confidence made us make too many mistakes when confronting Villarreal ’s tenacious defense, and the overall level dropped dramatically. "

"But I must say that Villa is a very, very good" shooter ", he has the instinct to score, missed two excellent scoring opportunities, I think this is understandable, because this is him In the first official game for Real Madrid, he told me that wearing Real Madrid's jersey is different from other teams' jerseys, and he is adapting to this difference. "

"Congratulations Villarreal scored 1 point away, but I still say that Real Madrid is still running in!"

On the second day after the game, the Marca newspaper also used a page to introduce the game. They also agreed with Yang Cheng's statement. At least they would not attribute this draw to Yang Cheng cleaning the superstar. Sequelae.

"We must see that some journalists and the media are making hype topics. Last year they desperately advocated cleaning the superstars, but now they are bombarding Yang Cheng, remembering the era of superstars, they have no principle and attitude Will only make their comments unconvincing. "

"Real Madrid's defense has indeed become very solid now. Villarreal only threatened Casillas' goal" goal "once in the game, and that was Nihart's goal in the second half. 』, But that did not pose a threat to Casillas, more often, we see Real Madrid ’s robust defensive system.”

"To be honest, after watching Real Madrid ’s football for so many years, since Capello left last century, we have never seen Real Madrid so defensively defensive. In almost every game in the past, our fragile back line It will make people feel "flesh" jump, but in this game, we see team battle! "

"Aveloa's defense is indeed very good. The card position is" precise "and the defense is sophisticated. We can see that his strength has improved rapidly, especially in the contribution of the defensive end. Yang Cheng is indeed called from the perspective of promoting players. In no way, even Carlos, the coach of Castilla, dared not reuse Aveloa, but he directly entrusted him with a heavy responsibility, and even hesitated to send away a superstar like Carlos, but Aveloa's performance was also enough. Yang Cheng returned! "

"Salgado is also based on defense in this game, and occasionally will step forward to attack, he looks really old, but from Yang Cheng did not even put Ramos into the big list, the outside world Yang Cheng did n’t like Ramos ’s remarks, which seemed true, but Salgado ’s satisfactory performance was enough to reassure us on the right. ”

"The first 30 minutes were Xavi Alonso ’s best 30 minutes after joining Real Madrid. Long passes, short passes, splits, over-the-top diagonal passes, threatening passes, controlling rhythm, etc., he almost completed It ’s impossible to be picky. Mascherano ’s protection and response beside him all let us see the rise of a stable pair of double waists. "

"And the offensive combination of four players in the frontcourt threatened Villarell's goal again and again. At least in the first half hour, Villarell was tortured by them without any ability to fight back. . "

"We can believe that Real Madrid in the first half hour is the best Real Madrid, but the cruel reality of the next 60 minutes tells us that we need to give more patience to see a mature Real Madrid. At least under this kind of high-intensity oppression, the tacit understanding of players is a huge test, which requires a longer period of accumulation and training. "

"If you want to say, what is most needed for this Real Madrid today, it must be patience, patience of the management, patience of the fans!"

Aspen ’s comments are also countering some media attacks. They believe that the media that said Real Madrid ’s creativity is low have ignored the nearly world-class performance of the team for the first half hour, whether it is David Silva or Beckham, even Harvey Alonso and Raúl, have made Real Madrid's offensive full of creativity.

"Yang Cheng is Caesar and the first head coach in the world. This is true, but he is not God. He cannot solve all problems at once, so he is optimistic that he will see the most after the winter break. Good Real Madrid, this is undoubtedly fighting for more time for the team. "

However, the Aspen newspaper also pointed out that if Real Madrid wants to win the league this season, they must get out of the low tide as soon as possible, adjust the state as soon as possible, at least they must ensure the efficiency of score points, otherwise it is difficult Catch up with Barcelona.

In fact, Barcelona's first round was very hard.

In the game that challenged Celta away, they trailed the home team 0: 1 in the first half, but with Eto'o and Messi scoring goals in the second half, they reversed Celta, but in the 65th minute, Lopez's goal helped Celta to equalize the score. Until the 88th minute, Good Johnson's goal saved Barcelona.

But in any case, Barcelona scored 3 points, which made them generally praised, especially when Real Madrid was "forced" by Villarreal at home (the latest chapter of the martial arts Qiankun www.81zw.com) Next, Barcelona's victory looks more worthy of a special book.

The most eye-catching team in the first round is Sevilla. This team defeated Levante 4-0 at home, ranking first in the La Liga standings and temporarily becoming the leader.

"What did the chairman say?"

At the Valdebebas training base, Redondo, Benitez and Paul Bayer, who were sitting in Yang Cheng's office, looked at Yang Cheng who came in after answering the phone and asked with concern.

"Nothing, just to clarify the outside rumors. He said that he had not received any interviews. He also said that regardless of the team's performance, he and the management have unconditionally supported me. As for the board members to be interviewed by the media, he will Propose it on the board of directors and advise! "

Yang Cheng smiled and said that he has no pressure at all, because if only the warm-up match and the first round of the league let him feel the pressure, Real Madrid will not "spend" so much time and "strength" to find him, is not ?

He knows his own mind, even if he is empty-handed in the first season, he will not be out of class because Florentino has put all his bets on him.

"That's good!" Redondo said with some confidence.

Yang Cheng smiled and patted the Argentine's shoulder and sat down near them.

In the middle of the crowd, there is a tactical picture, they are taking advantage of the players to report to the national team, so here to study the first round of the game's gains and losses and tactical leaks.

It should be said that in a game with real swords and real guns, there are a lot of problems in the "exposing". The gains are more than all the warm-up games combined. At least in the last 60 minutes, Real Madrid put a lot of them because their opponents are not strong enough The hidden problems are all exposed, especially in the offensive advancement.

The defense has improved because Yang Cheng organized the defense around the two players Cannavaro and Thuram. They were partners when they were in Juventus. They will not lose their understanding when they come to Real Madrid. They need to adapt to La Liga. Yang Cheng's style of play and referee's law enforcement standards, Yang Cheng built an Italian defense line based on them and let them play well.

This is only temporary, and this line of defense must be changed in the future, because defending the strong and attacking the weak is not what Yang Cheng wants!

"I think we have a big problem with this game's exposure. When we were under pressure, Xavi Alonso and Mascherano both recovered Under the circumstances (the latest chapter of Martial Universe www.81zw.com), our frontcourt does not have a full-time front waist, which makes the connection between the striker and the midfielder a problem. "

Benitez pointed out the biggest offensive problem of Real Madrid in the last hour of the game.

Yang Cheng ’s 4411 tactics, which is actually 442, although Raul and Villa can both retreat, but they are actually forwards, the position is very high, and the space between the forward and the waist is too large, Pellet Grigny hit the back of his midfielder with a single breath. He saw this and strangled to fight here. As a result, Real Madrid's attack was "chaotic".

"Actually, we didn't score at the start. It's very important that we always take the strike line to retreat and respond to the route. Before Villa had two chances, they retreated and then sprinted forward. The physical energy was consumed in an instant. It ’s easy for technical moves to go out of shape, which missed the opportunity, so I think this is a tactical issue. "

Retracting from the strike line means that the forward players must have more running, or directly rely on Beckham and Harvey Alonso to play long passes, but in order to ensure the efficiency of ball control, long passes have always been It is not the main passing method admired by the strong teams, but only the auxiliary means, which is too inefficient. This is why the long pass from England is pushed out of the historical stage.

"Later, you replaced Salgado with Soldado, and after stepping up the attack, Soldado topped the front, with Villa and Raul cruising around, where Raul retreated deeper, which was originally It was a good adjustment, but the physical fitness of Villa and Raul was already unsustainable, so the effect became less obvious. "

It seems that Yang Cheng has repeatedly stressed that the most offensive system is not actually how to score, who will score, but how to formulate a set of promotion routines, how to send the ball to the opponent ’s 32 meters Area, or even a restricted area.

Being able to create opportunities one after another, goals will naturally follow one after another.

"Let Raul retreat and hit the front waist?" Yang Cheng always frowned, proposing, "Let David Silva and Beckham press the position forward when they attack, and the formation becomes 4231."

"Theoretically feasible." Benitez and Paul Bayer both nodded.

Yang Cheng ’s original tactics were originally to take the double forwards retreat and take the route. Raul and Villa decided to withdraw their own strength according to the situation on the field. Now they just put the responsibility on Raul and make Villa closer to each other. The restricted area, because Villa has more speed and impact than Raul.

"But Raulken?" Paul Bayer asked.

After it is fixed, it means that Raul must first consider playing for Villa and serve his competitors, rather than thinking about how to score goals. This is really not an easy task for Raul. Accepted things.

If the other party is someone else, it ’s okay to say, but Villa is his rival in the national team and the media ’s adversary. If he does this, then the outside media will spread even more.

Yang Cheng thought for a while and nodded: "He will be willing, as long as he can win!"

Redondo also feels that, "As long as it is good for the team, you can let him play as a defender!"

"I will talk to Raul in person about this matter!" Yang Cheng made the decision decisively.

If Raul does not agree, Yang Cheng will consider using Aguero or another player to play the midfielder, and then let Villa concentrate on attacking the city in front.

After that, everyone discussed some league topics.

Yang Cheng didn't care about the first round of the draw, because the league was just beginning, but he still emphasized again and again that if he wanted to win the league title, he had to win as many games as possible and score 3 points, especially against some The weaker team.

As the so-called lean dead camel is bigger than the horse, Real Madrid is "chaotic", the overall strength advantage is enough to crush the weaker opponents, if even these games have to lose points, then Real Madrid really need not talk about winning the championship, Just admit defeat.

The weaker opponents that Yang Cheng said are undoubtedly the opponents of the next three rounds of the league. They challenged Levante away, faced the Royal Society at home, and challenged Betis.

There will be a UEFA Champions League group match in the middle of these three rounds, and then Real Madrid will usher in a derby against Atletico Madrid and Barcelona. It can be said that the schedule is not easy at all. A big test!
