"Tottenham?"

'We can beat them for a real time, if it's Chelsea or Manchester United, we can be a little bit tougher. We can really think about the semi-final against Barcelona. ”

Real Madrid fans are very optimistic, after the draw results, everyone is excited, and they are even more excited when they think that there is a good chance of playing Barcelona in the semi-finals.

'It's nice to have Barcelona again at the end of the season, we'll leave them with nothing.'

This year, Real Madrid played Barcelona, and Real Madrid fans are quite calm, much calmer than Real Madrid players.

Psychological superiority is at work.

However, Barcelona fans expressed their concerns about the draw with Real Madrid in the bottom half, and some rational fans said:

'It doesn't look like there's anything stopping Barcelona and Real Madrid from meeting in the semi-finals, it's not a good result, I'd rather Barcelona appear in the top half and challenge the two teams in the Premier League so that they meet Real Madrid in the final.'

"It's not a good thing to meet Real Madrid too early, but if you meet in the final, it seems to be ......"

Their mood is ambivalent and they are afraid of losing.

All things considered, Real Madrid and Barcelona could meet four more times this season. One Copa del Rey final, one league final, two Champions Leagues.

Whether the two teams can advance to the final depends on whether they can defeat their respective opponents in the semi-finals.

Spain's best four teams gathered in the Copa del Rey semi-finals, with Real Madrid and Barcelona also reporting for Valencia and Sevilla.

The matchup situation has been determined in advance as early as the qualification, that is, Barcelona vs Valencia, Real Madrid vs Sevilla.

Coincidentally, both teams were away and then home, with Real Madrid away to Sevilla and Barcelona away to Valencia.

After returning from the Champions League, Mourinho immediately gave his team a day and a half off to prepare for this semi-final.

This is his first season at Real Madrid and he doesn't want to miss a chance to compete for the title, and the Copa del Rey is no exception.

Although the team only got three days of rest, he still put most of the main players in the starting list that day, including Dong Fangzhuo.

The last time the two sides met in the Copa del Rey was in the semi-finals of the 2003/04 season, when Real Madrid lost away to Sevilla FC on aggregate. Real Madrid, on the other hand, have won only one of their last nine visits to Pizjuan, losing the league game the other day.

So this time, Mourinho didn't dare to take it lightly, and he was afraid of snake bites for ten years.

It was no surprise to the Sevillans to know that Jose Mourinho was playing with his main players, and the team's ace Fabiano mocked before the game: "Real Madrid are afraid of us, they are scared every time they play with us, they send all their main players every time, but even so, they can't take advantage of anything at the Estadio Pizjuan, and this time it's the same, we're going to give them a defeat." ”

He then continued to taunt Mourinho: "I enjoyed the victory at the Pizjuan Stadium, Mourinho will cry again. ”

Talking about Dong Fangzhuo's return, Fabiano restrained his ridicule, and then said very seriously: "Dong is the best striker at the moment, but I still have to say that football is a whole, not a one-person sport." There have been many great strikers in the history of Brazilian football, and Ronaldo is not afraid to say that he can win the World Cup every time, and this was the case in 2006. Real Madrid are the luxury of course, but I'm sure we're going to play better. ”

The remarks also reached Real Madrid's press conference before the game, and reporters also asked Mourinho and Dong Fangzhuo what they thought about the remarks.

Mourinho said bluntly: "History is in the past, we are not afraid of failures, this time they may have laughed too early, and what Fabiano doesn't know is that Ronaldo's peak is not 2006, and 1994/1998 and 2002 are the best Ronaldo, he has brought almost everything to Brazil, and what Fabiano doesn't know is that Dong is at the top, he doesn't know where the real gap between him and Dong is, and the answer is in the next game." ”

Dong Fangzhuo did not answer this question directly, but told the media that he couldn't wait to start the game.

He still has itchy feet......

Both teams are actually in the main lineup.

Sevilla line-up (4-4-2): goalkeeper Palop; defenders Sergio Sanchez, Escude, Alexis, Navarro; midfielders Keylor Navas, Jokola, Romarik, Perottti; Forwards Canute, Fabiano

Real Madrid's side changed formation again, and the back three were thrown out by Mourinho again. Goalkeeper Casillas, defenders Carvajal, Ramos, Pepe, Marcelo, defenders Alonso, Modric, Khedira, forwards Ozil and Dong Fangzhuo, striker Cristiano Ronaldo.

Compared to the Champions League lineup, Benzema and Di Maria sat on the bench. Real Madrid didn't lose many games this season, just one, and this one was given by the Sevillas, so Mourinho also became low-key, playing back to the back three, and could only sacrifice the forward players. This game doesn't have to be won, but it's better not to lose......

Seeing this starting lineup, Morientes, who has always been anti-Mourinho, despised it in the live broadcast room before the opening, "I finally played a beautiful victory at home, and Mourinho shrank again." He's like this, shouting to attack when he encounters a weak team, shrinking up when he encounters a strong team, obviously Sevilla has made him feel unprecedented pressure, otherwise he wouldn't have sacrificed a three-back formation, this game will definitely be another dull game, we will see a Real Madrid aimed at defense again. ”

Morientes is right, after the game started, Real Madrid did play a little ugly, they were really not in a hurry to attack, but based on defense, and Sevilla's 442 parallel position is really balanced, and they are not at all behind in the confrontation with Real Madrid.

In the first 20 minutes, the two sides were not able to form an effective shot on goal! It's all too rare. And Dong Fangzhuo and Ronaldo were continuously brought down by Sevilla players in the midfield, and they were not given a chance to move forward with the ball at all.

"These guys are so dirty." Ronaldo and Dong Fangzhuo muttered, "Last time they won us by these means." ”

"Phew, this time they're doing it again."

Cristiano Ronaldo is still haunted by the last defeat to Sevilla.

Dong Fangzhuo comforted:

"Old man, calm down,"

"The more you are like this, the happier they are."

"We can't fall into their trap and we need to be more patient than they do."

"We have time to spend with them."

……

Yes, the tempo wasn't fast, and it was probably the result of a midweek game against Lyon, but Morientes wasn't satisfied:

'Real Madrid are a little tired, but that's not an excuse to play mediocre, Mourinho could have had more rotation and he didn't.

After that, Sevilla seemed to see hope and they intensified their attack, especially on the two wings, and they picked up the pace. In the 23rd minute, Carvajal had to kick Navas on the wing, which then sparked a controversy between the two teams, and the two teams mixed up and almost broke into a fight.

Ronaldo also ran over, but was stopped by Dong Fangzhuo.

Dong Fangzhuo found that his teammates have been a little irritable recently, and their tempers can easily catch fire. It's not as strong as the midweek game against Leon, and it's not exciting at all.

In the end, it was Sevilla's set-piece, Romaric crossed from a free-kick from the wing, and Alexis headed wide of Ramos from the edge of the six-yard box.

Then the game fell into a lull again, Real Madrid's back three effectively intercepted Sevilla's attack, but Real Madrid was a little impatient on the counter-attack, and Ronaldo fell into the offside trap in succession. During this time, Dong Fangzhuo passed two good balls to Ronaldo in a row, but they were both judged offside.

In the 30th minute, Real Madrid was in danger again, Fabiano's pressing in the penalty area caused Khedira to clear the error, Canute followed up with the shot was blocked by Pepe, the former complained that the Real Madrid defender's handball foul was ignored, and it was still only awarded a corner kick to Sevilla.

The corner went to the far post, Fabiano pressed from the edge of the six-yard box and Khedira headed wide.

The Real Madrid fans who came to watch the game were a little dissatisfied.

"What's going on?"

"Wilting again?"

"I feel like Sevilla is Real Madrid, and do Real Madrid players have the shot put under their feet?"

'Sevilla also played in the Europa League in midweek.

"It seems that only Dong is desperate?"

In the eyes of Real Madrid players, they only saw Dong Fangzhuo running up and down on the field. Perhaps this is also the reason why Mourinho has to change back to a back three, this team is really tired, and Dong Fangzhuo has just returned to the field, and his performance is of course different from other teammates.

Five minutes later, Carvajal brought down Romaric on the edge of the box, and this time he finally did not escape the yellow card.

Romaric took the set-piece himself, a free-kick from the right that went straight at a tight angle, but the ball was deflected over the crossbar by Casillasto.

The lethargic Real Madrid still did not wake up at this time, and there was a feeling of being pressed against the turf by Sevilla.

Casillas, as captain, only frowned and didn't say anything to his teammates.

Mourinho shouted from time to time off the pitch, but it didn't seem to have any effect.

In the 38th minute, Ozil, who disappeared from the half-game, finally had a flash of inspiration and stuffed a beautiful diagonal pass to Dong Fangzhuo, Dong Fangzhuo scored from the left side, but Navas resolutely kept Dong Fangzhuo at the cost of a yellow card.

That position was not good, but Ronaldo took the initiative to ask for help, but he kicked the ball against the wall, which was not threatening at all, but allowed Sevilla to play a quick counterattack!

This time, it's pretty fast. Two kicks hit Real Madrid's half, Fabiano leaned on Ramos and passed the ball to Navas on the field, Navas couldn't wait to shoot directly from the right side of the penalty area, the ball was blocked by Pepe's outstretched leg.

Khedira got the ball and immediately handed it to Ozil in front, who tried to miss the ball over his opponent's head, but failed!

The ball ghost has fallen at the feet of Sevilla player Canute again!

Canute immediately passed through and Fabiano knew how to cut in from the middle to the right and get the ball before Pepe!

"Single-handed!"

"Whew-"

This was the most thrilling situation of the whole game for the first time.

Casillas's attention was quite focused and he immediately rushed out of the box, and the calm Brazilian continued to the right and actually passed Casillas.

The door is empty!

syllable

Fabiano fired a right-footed shot into the far corner, and Ramos came back quickly to slide and make a sliding tackle in front of the goal line, but the ball still rolled slowly towards the goal line.

Syllable!

It was Pepe, and it was he who kicked the ball out in the end.

"Ahh

"Ahhhh

At this time, both Real Madrid fans and Sevilla fans were screaming in horror.

Did the ball go in?

In fact, everyone didn't see it, and everyone's eyes were on the referee.

The referee also seemed hesitant, but his eyes turned to the linesman, who waved the flag to signal that the ball had not been scored, and then the referee refused to award the goal as valid.

"Bastard!"

"Did you see it clearly?"

The Sevilla players immediately rushed to the referee in protest, but the referee was unmoved and blew the whistle in quick succession to eject them.

There was no way, the Sevilla players could only throw the boundary ball, but the alert Marcelo rushed to Canute like a civet cat at this time and cleverly cut the ball!

"Good shot!"

"Marcelo! He cut off the ball at Carut's feet. ”

Well, he pushed diagonally to Luka Modric in the middle.

Modric directly passed to Ronaldo, and Ronaldo knocked back to Dong Fangzhuo.

The process is so fast that it feels like a smooth flow.

"Seville is in danger."

I saw that Dong Fangzhuo quickly took the ball and rushed to the front of Sevilla's penalty area, continued to pedal on the bicycle and shake, and then immediately changed to the middle to get up.

But the block of the Sevilla central defender was quite timely, Dong Fangzhuo did not flash the space, there was no way, Dong Fangzhuo knocked the ball back to Ozil with a heel.

Mesut Ozil split the flanks again, and Marcelo, who had already rushed up, hoisted the ball directly into Sevilla's back post, Cristiano Ronaldo and Alexis jumped at the same time, but the goalkeeper blasted a punch into their heads to knock the ball away first.

The ball didn't fly far and Ozil got the ball in the middle again!

He handed the ball to Dong Fangzhuo again, Dong Fangzhuo and he hit the wall continuously, and suddenly Dong Fangzhuo changed the rhythm and pulled the ball into the left side of the penalty area.

Still facing Navarro, with a false left foot, smash the ball!

Escud pounced, Dong Fangzhuo shook again, and then buckled! Rushed to the line of the small penalty area!

Smack-

Taking advantage of the Serbian goalkeeper's sight to see his dribbling movements clearly, Dong Fangzhuo immediately pushed the far corner with his left foot.

"The ball is in!"

"The ball is in!"

"Dong Fangzhuo!"

"It's Dong Fangzhuo's first record again!"

"That's the difference between Fabiano and Dong Fangzhuo, the difference between a star and a superstar."

"The same push into the far corner, Fabiano's ball will be cleared, but Dong Fangzhuo's shot will not. Because when Dong Fangzhuo was shooting, he had cleared all the threats......"
