Chapter 258: Lack of Strength? (Guaranteed second update)

In the 24th round of the league, Valencia will go to challenge Real Madrid away. {Please search in Baidu, read the full text for the first time}

It was a clash between the first and second place in the league.

But neither Valencia nor Real Madrid see this as the game that decides the league title this season.

Because it's too early.

If you're in the last eight league games, you might be able to say the same.

It's a little early.

Even if either side loses the game, it doesn't mean that the winning team wins the league title.

They still have fourteen league games left to make up for the mistakes made in this game.

Although this is not a tournament that can determine the eventual champion, the winner is still the team that wins away from home to Real Madrid.

Because it's not about the championship, it's about revenge.

In the first meeting between the two sides this season, Valencia beat Real Madrid 2-0 at their own home.

This time, if Real Madrid want to get revenge, it will always be a good chance on their home turf.

And it's really a good opportunity.

Because Valencia has been hit by injuries, the squad has not been complete during this time.

Originally, the number of first-team lineups of 23 people was just right, but who knew that this season had suffered a wave of injuries, many players were injured, and there were often a number of good and injured batches, since the first day of this season, Chang Sheng's men have not put together a first-team squad to train together.

The last time we lost 0:2 to Valencia, it can be considered that Valencia was still physically fit at that time.

Now they have held on to 23 league games, six Copa del Rey and six Champions League games with a crippled squad. Their fitness must be bad.

It's away again, and Valencia may be more than lucky this time!

But the reality surprised many people.

※※※

Valencia, who appeared at the Bernabeu, was not tired at all, or not as tired as one might think.

They continued their "mad dog tactics", running and pressing from the very beginning of the game.

Fifteen minutes into the game, commentator Morn kept repeating the phrase: "Valencia is playing like this, they may not be able to maintain their physical fitness to keep the whole game......"

Twenty-five minutes, thirty-five minutes, forty-five minutes passed.

Valencia spent the entire first half tangling with Real Madrid for 45 minutes, and although they did not score, they did not concede a goal.

Queiroz was in no hurry, he waited for the fatal blow in the second half.

It was normal for Valencia to show no signs of physical breakdown in the first half, and if this team could not hold on to even half the game, they would not be able to level the points with Real Madrid and top the table on goal difference.

At half-time, Queiroz asked his players to keep up the good work and the victory would surely be for Real Madrid.

After the start of the second half, Queiroz and everyone waited for Valencia to collapse due to physical exhaustion.

But they waited ten minutes, twenty minutes.

Seventy-five minutes later, Valencia showed no signs of collapsing.

Not only that, but they also scored in the 76th minute! Break the deadlock on the field!

"Ronaldinho!! Ronaldinho !! The Brazilian blasted Real Madrid open the net with a direct free-kick! ”

Ronaldinho looked excited after the goal, he ran to the corner flag and danced the samba, not minding the boos and curses of the Real Madrid fans on stage.

Queiroz stood up from his seat and looked in amazement at the Valencia players celebrating their goal. He couldn't figure out why Valencia's players were still so good at running after 75 minutes!

It stands to reason that the seventy-fifth minute of a game is a hurdle.

Basically, the players will run out of energy at this time and enter a very exhausting period.

Even Real Madrid's players are showing signs of fatigue, their movement is noticeably less than before, and their pace and tempo have slowed down.

But Valencia's mad dogs still didn't mean to slow down the tempo, their passes were very fast, the ball was dazzling, and the eyes were a little hard to keep up......

Queiroz is a little incredible. He believes Valencia's performance defies common sense.

Valencia's tactics are very physically demanding, they rely heavily on fitness, and their fitness condition has a direct impact on their performance and results.

It stands to reason that Valencia will play on three fronts this season, and with many injuries, their fitness should not be as good as before.

But why is it that the league has been mentioned in February, and Valencia's fitness has not shown a significant decline?

Not only was Queiroz puzzled, but Valencia's own players also found it incredible.

It stands to reason that they should be very tired, and they all feel this way during training, and they feel physically tired.

But when it comes to the competition, they will feel so full of physical strength as if they don't know what "tired" is.

They don't know why, but they don't have to go into it. As long as they still have the stamina to run.

After the resumption of the game, Valencia showed no signs of physical exhaustion.

However, Real Madrid's players were impatient after conceding the goal, and the loss of their already limited fitness accelerated even more.

The contrast between the two sides was stark.

Valencia's Mad Dog tactical quality has not dropped significantly, and they are still passing and passing.

And what about Real Madrid? In the end, he could only shrink into his own 30-meter area, hoping to hold on to the goal.

But even so, they were still dazzled by Valencia's continuous passing and running, and eventually there was a big gap in the backline.

With a through shot from Ronaldinho, Villa appeared where he should be and scored.

"David Villa! Easy scoring! It wasn't a spectacular shot, but before that, Valencia's performance was a classic! They tore through a series of uninterrupted passing runs, a total of seventeen feet, to tear apart Real Madrid's defence. In the face of such an attack, Real Madrid has no choice! ”

"A flawless team goal performance! This is football in Valencia! ”

As he cheered for Valencia, Moen had completely forgotten what he had said, "If you continue to play like this, Valencia will definitely not hold out until the end of the game".

But he still has to say: "Valencia's fitness is amazing! Are they really the team that has been holding out for six months with this set of remnants? ”

When Villa scored the second goal, there was a wave of boos at the Bernabeu. But the boos were not directed at Valencia, but at the Real Madrid players, at Real Madrid president Florentino.

With so many superstars, they can't even win against Valencia, making them double against Real Madrid this season. Real Madrid fans can't accept it anyway.

They believe that Real Madrid's superstars lack fighting spirit on the pitch, and some of the balls can be grabbed but they don't run. There are only a few defenders who really work hard, but what role can they play? Even if they manage to keep a clean sheet against Valencia and keep them from scoring any more goals, they are already two goals behind.

Makelele worked hard, but his attacking performance was really not flattering.

When he got the ball, Valencia saw that no one was up to him, to interfere with him, and he couldn't pass the lethal ball - that's not what he did at all!

There was also a boo for Florentino.

After he became president of Real Madrid, Real Madrid quickly became the most profitable football team in the world, despite achieving unprecedented commercial success, shaking off huge debts in one fell swoop. However, this does not hide the team's failure in competition.

Since he became president of Real Madrid, the century-old club has won only one league title and one Champions League title, and the rest of the time, although they are famous and star-studded, they have not won any honors.

When Beckham joined the team, he was nicknamed "Galaxy Battleship", and at that time, he was envious and in awe of Real Madrid's ability to recruit so many superstars.

And now, the mention of the title "Galactic Battleship" is more like a mockery.

For the fans, the team's failures at the competitive level are Florentino's failures.

He's piled up too many stars, but it's useless. These superstars didn't exert the power of "=2".

There are even fans who think that Florentino brings so many superstars that it is better to bring a perennial win.

In the face of Valencia, they have no wins!

This is all brought to them by the Chinese coach called Chang Sheng.

Amid the boos, the Real Madrid players were even less motivated.

Real Madrid fans waving white handkerchiefs began to appear on the stage.

In Spanish sports, waving a white handkerchief has two meanings. In the case of bullfighting, waving a white handkerchief means praise and reward for the matador.

But in football, that's not a good idea.

Waving a white handkerchief is often a sign of irony and rebellion against the team you support, and it is usually a move that the home team's fans will only make when they are angry and disappointed.

Valencia played Barcelona away last season, and the final score of that game was 4:, and Valencia won the opponent completely. In the final moments of the game, the Camp Nou was filled with waving white handkerchiefs and boos as Barcelona fans protested against their team's incompetence.

After that game, Van Gaal, who "entered the palace for the second time", was disgraced.

And in this game, the white handkerchief of Real Madrid fans was not waved to coach Queiroz, but to Florentino.

Chang Sheng couldn't help but laugh when he saw this scene.

He felt he might be able to make Real Madrid's end-of-season collapse happen sooner...... (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to register as a member to recommend this work, your support is my biggest motivation. )
