Chapter 1000 The Spanish National Derby, worth 1.2 billion
The Real Madrid office received a fax from the La Liga Disciplinary Committee.
The content of the fax was simple: Dong Fangzhuo was warned by the disciplinary committee that if Dong Fangzhuo continued to make irresponsible remarks, then he would be financially punished because of his radical views in front of the media.
Such penalties are generally in the range of several thousand to tens of thousands of euros, which is not a large amount. Later, the "As" newspaper also broke the news, "Chinese Dong was shocking, bombarding the referee, and the Western Football Association asked Chinese Dong to keep the news silent!" Failure to do so will result in appropriate penalties. ”
Dong Fangzhuo naturally saw the fax, but he didn't plan to be silent, but posted a text on his Twitter: You can't tell the truth these days, that referee just has a problem, don't you believe everyone will wait and see in the national derby?
He didn't worry about being punished, just that money......
Dong Fangzhuo just finished singing, and the Real Madrid coach also followed up with the performance, this time, he was interviewed by Portugal's RTP TV, and first supported Dong Fangzhuo.
"Dong and I are both people who like to tell the truth, but obviously a lot of people don't like us to tell the truth." The first sentence was a slap in the face of the La Liga Football Association.
"They always want us to be bullied like good kids, but we can't do that. Of course, I think it's better for the manager to step in on these things. ”
Commenting on the weekend's Spanish derby, Mourinho said he felt good about coming home: "If I enjoyed bringing Chelsea or Inter back to Camp Nou, I'm even happier now taking Real Madrid to play against Barcelona. Speaking of which, the Portuguese coach had some smug smiles on his face.
Barcelona have won a lot of honours in recent years, but Mourinho quipped: "Barcelona have won everything, but they have never won the final of the Champions League at the Bernabeu at Real Madrid, maybe they have a chance to do it between now and the next 30 or 40 years." Mourinho said this, not only pointing out that he helped Real Madrid avoid the embarrassment of Barcelona lifting the Champions League trophy at his home stadium, but also emphasized that if Barcelona wants to "bully" Real Madrid in the future, he must first ask him if he agrees.
Then former Real Madrid player Guti couldn't help but jump out and make some controversial remarks. He praised Jose Mourinho, and he also belittled Real Madrid before him as nothing to flatter the greatness of Jose Mourinho. Guti said: "It's much harder to coach Real Madrid than to coach Barcelona. Now Barça's manager is Catalan, and Mourinho's club used to be a brothel, but now the team plays the way he wants it and the fans love him and his football. ”
"I watched every game of Real Madrid. I like Jose Mourinho's ability to direct on the pitch and how he coaches the players and manages the team is also something I am interested in. ”
"It's not easy to put together players from different countries and leagues in such a short period of time, but it's also happened to Inter, and the Italian has been waiting for the Champions League for 50 years. As long as the fans are patient enough and with Mourinho in the presence, Real Madrid will not be far from the title, especially the Champions Cup. ”
"I think Pep Guardiola has a more mature tactical team, a championship team that takes it all; Real Madrid have been at a disadvantage in recent encounters, but getting Jose Mourinho means that Real Madrid have all the conditions to beat Barcelona. All Real Madrid players are willing to do anything for their coach, so Mourinho has a chance to win this game. ”
Then, his fire was aimed at Barcelona: "I don't know what Barcelona has to brag about, they just have to look at the standings to know, 3 points, they are 3 points less than Real Madrid, they say they are the best team in the world all day long, but how can the best team in the world be 3 points less than Real Madrid?" Can anyone tell me a reason? ”
Former defender Elguera also said: "Barcelona like to control the ball, and for Real Madrid, sometimes it doesn't matter if you control the ball or not. I think Real Madrid's counter-attack will cause a lot of damage to Barça because Real Madrid have players who are fast and have a very high level and they can kill Barça in an instant. Jose Mourinho has injected something new into Real Madrid, and it is clearly no accident that he always wins. Real Madrid and Barcelona have all settled their opponents with ease and are in good form, but I believe Real Madrid will win 2-1. ”
Defender Carlos also said: "There will be a very deep and fast Real Madrid team at Camp Nou, a team that has a strong ability to possess the ball and use space. Real Madrid can pose a big threat to Barcelona with their speed. The game will be evenly matched, but I believe Real Madrid will win 3-1. ”
Real Madrid is arguing, and Barcelona is naturally not far behind.
Cruyff was the first to jump out and cheer for Barcelona: "We don't care what Real Madrid does, the most important thing is what Barcelona achieves. Barcelona fans would do well to keep their eyes on the talented and versatile Pep Guardiola's team, which is also making the best start in the club's history. The radiant victory over Almeria proved that Barca's form is on full swing, Messi is at the peak of his career and the national derby could not have come at the right time. As long as Barcelona insist on playing like this, the trophy will not escape the palm of their hands, and the game against Real Madrid will have to prove it. Barcelona's eight goals against Almeria are a very effective "stimulant" for Barcelona, and such a big victory is enough to make Chinese Dong and his Real Madrid teammates tremble. Jose Mourinho's side are indeed strong, but Pep Guardiola's side are playing better at the moment, with Real Madrid scoring five goals and Barcelona scoring eight. ”
Then, as soon as Cruyff changed his words, he began to spray Mourinho: "To be a good football coach, it is not enough to have honor and some tactical knowledge. The coach needs to do more than just line-up and command on the field, he also has to manage the dressing room and bring the players together to work towards a common goal. Coaches also need to have an additional quality, which is to convey values to their players. Pep Guardiola stands for hard work, humility, nurturing and respect, and is an example for people. Mourinho has a great record as a coach and I have a lot of respect for him. But I don't like his style of football and the way he behaves, and if I were the owner of the club, I would never hire him as the head coach. ”
Cruyff's words were a bit extreme, but his first protégé Stojkov also stood up to show his support: "I think Pep Guardiola is leading a team built on tradition in a very smart way. I feel good about him, he's nice and nicely cultured. However, I also know that Guardiola is driving a car built by someone else. Jose Mourinho, on the other hand, can build a super-strong team from scratch, he is a natural winner, better than Pep Guardiola in this regard. It's just that his character is too problematic! ”
Dutch striker Kluivert is particularly bullish on Neymar: "It's the best Real Madrid I've ever seen, but I'm sure Barcelona will win 2-1. It's Neymar's first year at Barça, form is important for a striker, it's hard to be a striker for Barça, but I'm sure he can score goals and after the Super Cup at the start of the season, I think Neymar has grown again and he's definitely going to prove himself again in the game. Of course, Suarez and Villa are both good, and in terms of strikers, Barcelona are absolutely dominant. ”
Such arguments are all too normal for the national derby, and at the same time, the media is building momentum for the national derby.
The headline of the newspaper Marca is "The first national derby worth a total of 1.2 billion euros in history".
"There is no doubt that this is the first time in history that a national derby with a total value of 1.2 billion euros is even more than last season's restructured national derby of 300 million euros. The two giants' red-hot form is the closest in the last 13 years: 33 goals have been scored in 12 league games, the best result of the two teams in the past 13 years. In the last 10 years, the two teams have only held the top two positions in the table three times before the first leg of the national derby, and the gap between the other pursuers is so large (seven points). Rather than saying that La Liga is the world of Real Madrid and Barcelona, it is better to say that this season's La Liga only exists for these two national derbyes. In the past 10 years, there has not been a national derby that has been hyped up like this one in full swing two weeks ago. Fans have been almost stunned for years by the battle of the century that is truly evenly matched: this is the best Chinese Dong, the best Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi, this is the best Real Madrid and Barcelona. ”
Last season's national derby set a 13-year high in Spanish soil, but that number is set to climb next week, surpassing Barca's classic 3-2 win over Real Madrid in 1997/98. Because it will be the most expensive Spanish derby in history: Real Madrid players are worth 700 million euros and Barcelona are worth 500 million euros, which is even more than the combined value of the World Cup final. At this time last year, the combined value of the Galaxy Fleet and the reigning Champions League champions was only 947 million euros.
Contrary to the last 10 seasons when the two teams were almost always in good form, Real Madrid and Barcelona have been biting tightly from the first round this season, leaving the other contenders far behind. For the first time, the Spanish national derby is being played out between two giants with the best start in history: Real Madrid and Barcelona both broke La Liga's top points up to round 12, but next Monday, the record will be held by only one team.
This season, there is no league like La Liga, where it is just a rivalry between two teams. Serie A and the Premier League three sides aside, the Bundesliga Dortmund is in the dust, and the French league is even more chaotic, it seems that people can only find this kind of complete monopoly in the lower level of the Soviet Super League.
You know, the season has not yet reached 1/3, and it is very likely that the other 18 teams in La Liga will play another league in the remaining 2/3 of the schedule - because Real Madrid and Barcelona are no longer part of them.
