Chapter 461: Death sentence
After this game, the whole of Spain was criticizing Real Madrid, and although Real Madrid won against Real Sociedad, the score of 4:3 was really unsatisfactory.
Especially against the backdrop of Barcelona's 4:0 score, in this round of the league, Barcelona ushered in the Barcelona derby, and as a result, people used a 4:0 to turn this derby into a massacre.
Mourinho has also been criticized by countless media in the line-up, not to mention Casillas being pressed on the bench, and even the main central defender Pepe, who has always been thunderous, was also pressed on the bench.
Varane, who had performed well before, made a number of mistakes in the last game, and even Real Madrid conceded two goals related to Varane.
Angry fans even blamed Mourinho for Lin Dong's problem, after all, the transfer right of Real Madrid was in the hands of Mourinho, and Lin Dong was introduced by him.
Fortunately, Mourinho is now desperate for Real Madrid, and the only motivation to support him to stay in Real Madrid is to win a championship, but he is Mourinho, how can he leave in disgrace.
The outside world can't interfere with Mourinho, and internal problems can't affect Mourinho, because Real Madrid's interior has been eroded, and no matter how hard he tries, it's useless.
The only thing that remains to keep Real Madrid moving forward is the professionalism of the players and the desire to win the game, and in this regard, whether it is Mourinho or Real Madrid.
In the blink of an eye, the second leg of the knockout round of 16 of the Copa del Rey was a must-play for Real Madrid, who lost the first leg.
The Spanish Copa del Rey did not appear in the starting line-up, and the game was still led by Cristiano Ronaldo's Portuguese gang.
In the last league game, Ronaldo will be suspended in the next round because of a yellow card, so Mourinho arranged this game purely Portuguese gang.
And Ronaldo did not disappoint Mourinho, using a hat trick to help Real Madrid complete the slaughter, and finally won the second leg with a score of 4:0, and advanced to the next round with a big score of 5:2 in the two legs.
Ronaldo's courage is a good thing for Real Madrid, and even more happy in the eyes of fans, because Lin Dong's performance was so good before, so good that the fans couldn't kick it.
This situation reached its peak in the nineteenth round of the league, and in this game, Lin Dong once again learned the wonder of Real Madrid, and even this wonder exceeded Lin Dong's expectations.
In the 19th round of the league, none of the midfielders Portugal helped to play, Callejon, Modric, Higuain, Lin Dong, Alonso, Khedira, and left-back Marcelo also officially returned, which is good news for Real Madrid or Lin Dong.
From the situation in the first half of the season, it can be seen that Marcelo is a big help to Lin Dong, and even Lin Dong was able to perform so well at the beginning, and Marcelo's support contributed to it.
However, when Mourinho sent the most favorable lineup to Lin Dong, Lin Dong dropped the chain himself, does Lin Dong drop the chain himself?
Of course, after all, luck is also part of strength, and in the nineteenth round of the league, luck is obviously not on Lin Dong's side.
In the seventh minute, Lin Dong ushered in a very good opportunity, and Marcelo announced his return with a forward attack from the back.
However, Lin Dong's header in the Osasuna box failed to help Real Madrid open the scoring, and Lin Dong's header hit the crossbar and flew off the bottom line.
This time's header has also become the epitome of Lin Dong in this game, and it can even be said to be the epitome of the entire Real Madrid.
The crossbar in the seventh minute was just the beginning, and in the eighteenth minute, Lin Dong received a diagonal plug from Modric outside the penalty area and blasted a beautiful curling ball into the corner.
But in the end, he couldn't really fly into the corner, but hit the post and bounced off the goalkeeper before being cleared by the Osasuna defender.
Before the end of the first half, Lin Dong hit the pillar for the third time, this time it was a point-grabbing cushion shot in the small penalty area, but when he shot the goal, he was touched by the opponent's central defender and laughed at his heel, and the cushion shot was big, and the ball flew to the crossbar again, and when it bounced back, it went directly into the goalkeeper's arms.
In addition to Lin Dong's repeated crossbar and goalposts, the rest of the Real Madrid players were not much better, with Callejon's wide shooter hitting the net.
Morata's first shot was directly confiscated by the goalkeeper, and the second attack was under the cover of Lin Dong, but the header was directly crooked, making Lin Dong's cover worthless.
In the entire first half, Real Madrid hit the goal with twelve feet, Lin Dong occupied five feet alone, and as a result, three feet were either on the crossbar or the goalpost, and the others did not gain anything.
For this situation, Mourinho also said that he was very helpless, if it wasn't for his bad luck, Lin Dong's five-foot shot would be enough to ensure Real Madrid's victory in this game, not to mention that Real Madrid had more than a dozen shots in the half, in fact, ten feet were within the range of the goal frame.
With such a clear advantage, Mourinho had no reason to make a substitution, however, Mourinho and Real Madrid never dreamed that their luck would be so bad.
Four minutes into the second half, Lin Dong hit the crossbar again, it was still a header, or Marcelo's high ball cross from the wing, Lin Dong hit the ball in the bag between two defenders.
The unwilling Lin Dong soon made a comeback, and three minutes later, Real Madrid attacked the heart of Osasuna again, and even launched the ghost, but the final shot hit the post.
One game, three crossbars, two goalposts, this is how bad luck it takes to be in a hurry to do such data, not to mention Lin Dong himself, even the well-informed Mourinho was stunned.
Lin Dong, who hit the post again, finally gave up his intention to score in this game, and it was obvious that this kind of luck was too rebellious.
However, the luck of the other players of Real Madrid is actually much better than Lin Dong, after Lin Dong began to create more space for his teammates, the shots of other players naturally increased, but even so, there was still no change in the game on the field.
In the end, when the referee blew the full game, the score of this game was still 0:0, Real Madrid, second in the standings, Osasuna, at the bottom of the standings.
Fortunately, Atletico Madrid's last league game was also a draw, so this draw has little impact on Real Madrid's position in the standings.
Of course, this is just a matter of position, but the points gap is even wider, and in this round of matches, Barcelona once again won the opponent, and the difference between the two teams has been extended to 11 points.
Such a gap has basically declared the death sentence of Real Madrid in the league this season.
