From 1:0 to 1:2, the Real Madrid fans in the stands undoubtedly clearly saw the gap in strength between the team they love and the sworn enemy Barcelona, whether it is individual strength or overall strength, Real Madrid is not as good as Barcelona.

Conceding two goals in a row and being reversed, they seemed to see the same as the previous derby of the century, Real Madrid will be defeated and will be ruthlessly slaughtered by Barcelona, they don't know what kind of reaction they should give, and they are silent.

The stands at the Bernabeu Stadium are quiet compared to the rest of the stadiums, especially those in the Premier League, and one of the most famous things here is that after a football match, the staff hardly need to pick up the paper and debris from the stands, as the fans pack up and take it with them.

Nowadays, the stands of the quiet Bernabeu Stadium are even quieter!

However, unlike before when they would boo Queiroz, Lusenborg and others, they would not boo Yang Cheng, because they knew that this was the only head coach they could rely on now, if even Yang Cheng couldn't do it, then who else could?

There were no stormy waves, some were just calm, even when you walked into the dressing room, all you could hear was the wheezing of breath, because for some people, the first half was too tiring.

Passive and controlled by others, this is undoubtedly a double test of physical fitness and will for Real Madrid players!

But after Yang Cheng walked into the locker room, he suddenly laughed, applauded vigorously, and walked to the front while applauding.

The players who passed by along the way all raised their heads and looked at this manager who behaved strangely, and I believe that a few people must have thought in their hearts, is this fool crazy? We were reversed, and he still applauded and laughed?

"I'm really happy!" Yang Cheng walked to the front of the tactical board, turned around, and praised with a smile: "Because your performance in the first half was really good, really, I never lie, I said, your performance in the first half was really great!" ”

"Yes, we are behind, but I don't think there is any shame in this, the score is behind, the strength is behind, and even we lost the championship in the end, these are not terrible, the terrible thing is that we lost here!" He poked himself in the temple, apparently reminding his players that they can't lose themselves if they lose anything.

"I like players with character because in my opinion, any successful player has to be strong and brave, he has to have the right attitude in every game, even if the end result may be bad and bad, but he can leave the pitch with his head held high because he gave his best."

"No one rules which team will be invincible, any team will lose, but we have to let the opponent understand that we can lose everything, but we can't even lose our souls, because that is our minimum dignity, if we even lose our dignity, let the opponent trample under the soles of our feet, then even we will look down on ourselves, and what qualifications do we have to let our opponents look down on us?"

"I said that if I want to win against Barcelona, I have to win the way Real Madrid does, nobody believes it, but you see, in the first half we were half an hour ahead, Barcelona are not scary, they are not invincible!"

"That's why I said, you guys did a great job, it's great, I'm very satisfied with you, we still have to attack in the second half, keep attacking, don't give me even a step back, even if the opponent scores 2 goals in our goal, score 3 goals, even they can score 10 goals, we don't retreat, aim at their goal, attack!"

When he said this, Yang Cheng smiled, walked over, came to the middle of the players, came to Cannavaro and Thuram, squatted down, looked at the two players, smiled and asked: "Fabio, Lilian, in Istanbul in 2005, at halftime, were you celebrating?" ”

The two former Juventus players were a little embarrassed and didn't answer directly, but the newspapers had already announced it all, and there were indeed a lot of people celebrating in advance at the time.

"Do you know what the Liverpool players were doing at the time?" Yang Cheng asked.

It's hard for the outside world to dig up clues from Liverpool's mouths about these things, because Yang Cheng doesn't like anyone to discuss anything going on in the dressing room, so the outside world only vaguely knows some clues. "A lot of players were arguing, almost everyone gave up, the scene was a mess, Drogba took off his shirt, he looked a little unplaying, he was wearing a T-shirt for Gerrard, he said he didn't need it, but I threw the T-shirt to him and told him, wear it, we still need it!" ”

"I told them......" Yang Cheng slowly stood up, "we have to respect our opponents, but we should never be afraid of our opponents, because we can be stronger than them, and as a result, you have all seen it." ”

All the players in the dressing room looked up at him and listened to him say things that no one had ever said before.

"Now, I give you this sentence, we have to respect Barcelona, respect their football, respect their quality, but we should never be afraid of them, on the contrary, we must firmly believe that we have enough quality to beat them!"

The players listened silently, and no one said anything.

"I knew long before the game, if I lost this game, the whole world would call me an idiot, they would laugh at me, think I was stupid, why give up the targeted tactics that are more pragmatic and more certain, and at the same time I am better at it, and choose to compete with Barcelona in terms of technology and offensive power?"

"I don't know what it means to play to your strengths and avoid your weaknesses? I don't know what targeted tactics are? Yang Cheng shook his head, "No, I know better and know better than those in the outside world who are waiting to criticize me, but I still have to do this, because I want you to clearly see two things, first, the strength gap between us and Barcelona, and second, the other party is not invincible, today we can make them bleed, tomorrow we can defeat them!" ”

Everyone wants to win, and Yang Cheng doesn't want to lose, but sometimes, losing a game is to be able to win more in the future.

In Yang Cheng's previous life, Carlo Ancelotti defeated Deportivo La Coruna 4-1 at home in the Champions League in April 2004, but lost 0-4 away to the opponent and was eliminated, he said in an interview with a reporter, he said that this fiasco can make us know how to win better in the next three years.

Now Yang Cheng also hopes that Real Madrid can do the same, understand themselves more clearly in this game, improve themselves, and Real Madrid and AC Milan are still in a very different situation, at least, Real Madrid is playing at home, not necessarily losing!

"Michelle!" Yang Cheng walked in front of Salgado, looked at the panting old courtier, smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "You did a great job in the first half, rest in the second half, do a good job, and the next game continues!" ”

Salgado was stunned for a moment, but nodded quickly, he knew that the head coach was leaving himself face and steps.

Yang Cheng turned to look at Thuram, "Lilian, in the second half, you are on the right, can you get used to the old position, can you watch Ronaldinho?" ”

Thuram first looked at Cannavaro, then at the rest of his teammates, and nodded, "He'll be like Messi in the second half!" ”

Many people in the locker room suddenly laughed, Arbeloa scratched the back of his head a little shyly, his defense of Messi in the first half was indeed very successful, and the Argentine youngster did not even have a bright spot, which has to be said to be Arbeloa's success.

"Alvaro, good job, but in the second half you have to continue to be careful with Messi, and at the same time help your teammates to organize the defense, understand?" Yang Cheng pointed to Arbeloa and explained solemnly.

Yang Cheng looked at Cannavaro, nodded, and didn't say anything, but the latter knew in his heart, because he was the core of the Real Madrid backline and the leader.

After explaining the defensive line, Yang Cheng pointed out some problems in Barcelona's defense to the attacking players, such as Belletti on the right side likes to press when the team holds the ball, such as Barcelona's defensive awareness of the two ribs is not strong, etc., he wants the offensive players to use it.

"Álvaro, you're on in the second half!" Yang Cheng pointed at Negredo and said.

This suddenly surprised everyone in the locker room, Yang Cheng actually replaced Salgado and replaced Negredo!

"I'm still the same sentence, in the second half we will continue to attack, don't retreat, press me up, attack!"

…………

…………

"Oh my God!!"

After the on-site commentator saw the Real Madrid players coming out, he shouted in amazement, "Is Yang Cheng crazy?" "In the face of Barcelona, he chose to replace a defender and replace a striker, should we say that he is bold?" Or is he not self-sufficient? ”

If it weren't for Yang Cheng's signboard being too loud in the past few years, it is estimated that the people who scolded his mother on the spot would have come out.

'He's absolutely insane, didn't he see how sharp Barcelona were in attack in the final stages of the first half? Is he really as the outside world says, that is, he wants to attack desperately, even if he is slaughtered by Barcelona to the end? ”

"He has obviously lost his mind, he must still think that the Real Madrid team he is leading now is still Liverpool last season, even Liverpool, they would not dare to choose a back three to face Barcelona's attack in this situation."

In addition to the exclamations of the on-site commentators, the stands at the Bernabeu Stadium were also fried, and they couldn't understand why Yang Cheng was doing this, did he really want to give up this game?

But gradually, as the game unfolded, as Real Madrid started the second half, using its own kick-off advantage to play a round of strong attacks again, especially in the 47th, 48th, and 51st minutes, three consecutive attacks entered Barcelona's penalty area, but never scored a goal, and the enthusiasm of Real Madrid fans was rekindled.

Real Madrid's formation in the second half looks like 343, but it is actually 3133, among them, the coverage area of the back three is around the penalty area, Mascherano plays a single back, but he is mainly deployed at the front of the penalty area, these four defenders are basically just involved in the transition and combing, not directly involved in the attack.

Harvey? Alonso, David? Silva and David Beckham lined up ahead of Mascherano, and when they defended, they were responsible for the deployment of the 32-metre area, that is, mainly against Xavi and Iniesta's crosses in front of the 32-metre zone, and they and Mascherano worked together to limit Barcelona's midfield.

Villa played in a flexible position, with his area on the left and right flanks, while Raul roamed around Negredo in search of opportunities, who was at the front of Real Madrid's attack, using his physical advantage and impact, as well as his physical advantage, to ram the Barcelona defence.

In the offensive, although there is Xavi? Alonso and David Beckham are the two big transfer masters, but Real Madrid doesn't rely too much, David? Silva can be pressed in the attacking position and directly involved in the attack, which makes Real Madrid a little more delicate when attacking.

For example, in the 48th minute, it was Mascherano who intercepted and handed it to Xavi? Alonso, who crossed Beckham, the Englishman knocked back Raul without stopping, who passed to David? Silva.

Silva faced the goal and played a straight ball to Villa on the left, who broke through on the left and passed to the middle, where Negredo's cushioned shot from inside the box was saved by Valdés and a good chance to score.

This set of tactics is actually a test of defense, but because Barcelona emphasizes inward cutting when attacking, Messi and Ronaldinho are both backfooted, and Eto'o in the middle is under the restriction of Cannavaro, and the effect of crosses from the side is not obvious, and he is forced to play in the middle, while Real Madrid is to concentrate defensive resources in the middle.

Through this substitution, Yang Cheng made everyone understand his determination to attack, making the team's attack more resolute, but at the same time, it also reminded all the frontcourt players that they must actively participate in the on-the-spot counter-robbery and delaying tactics, otherwise, Barcelona will play directly and Real Madrid's backline will be dangerous.

This instead made the team from front to back, the defensive enthusiasm has been mobilized, as soon as they concede the ball, they immediately put into the spot counter-attack, as soon as they grab the ball, the first time to play a counterattack, the first time to threaten Barcelona's defense.

On the other hand, Barcelona, Samuel Eto'o, Messi and Ronaldinho are basically not involved in defense, the latter generally defends with his eyes, and as the game deepens, his physical fitness declines rapidly, and his running begins to become negative, which makes Barcelona's midfield limited by Real Madrid.

So there was a situation on the field, the two teams attacked each other, but Barcelona's attack was not as threatening as in the final stage of the first half, while Real Madrid played frequently, but it was not too threatening, only more attacks.

The most obvious point is that Barcelona's possession rate has dropped. ..., as Yang Cheng said before, once the ball is lost in the 32-meter area of the penalty area, Barcelona's attack will be chaotic, and it will be paralyzed under the oppression and pressing of the opponent.

Realizing this, Rijkaard made a substitution, he replaced the defender Marcos with Giuli, and let the Frenchman play on the right side, hoping to continue to make a fuss on the wing, but Messi was pulled to the middle by him, hoping to connect the connection between the trident and Xavi and Iniesta through Messi's retreat and forward insertion in the middle.

In this way, Barcelona's attack has improved again.

In the 59th minute, Iniesta made a direct pass, Ronaldinho took the ball on the left side, made a gesture to break through the bottom cross, deceived Thuram, suddenly stopped, passed the ball diagonally to the middle, Messi got rid of Mascherano, in the case of Eto'o interfering with Cannavaro, after getting the ball, he entered the penalty area and shot directly with his feet.

Casillas made a crucial save to deflect Messi's shot off the line and deflect one of Barcelona's most dangerous shots since the second half.

But just two minutes later, Abidal passed the ball down the left, Ronaldinho easily took the ball past Thuram and passed to the middle, where Iniesta cut in and hit a ball that grazed the left post and went off the line.

In the 64th minute, Messi retreated to receive Xavi's pass, and Iniesta formed a one-two combination, after getting rid of Mascherano, picked up the penalty area, Eto'o volleyed, and the ball was lifted off the crossbar by Casillas.

"Barcelona has been reactivated in the midfield after making adjustments, and frequently creates threats in Real Madrid's penalty area, if it weren't for Casillas's excellent performance in front of goal, I believe Real Madrid would have been continuously penetrated by Barcelona."

"Yang Cheng must adjust the team's tactics as soon as possible, although the substitution at the beginning did make a great improvement on the field, but after Barcelona's midfield re-stabilized the situation, it will be difficult for Real Madrid to create a threat, especially Messi, who performed badly in the first half, after returning to the middle, he performed very eye-catching, and the tandem effect on the team's midfield is very large."

Just as the on-site commentator was talking, Belletti on the right suddenly interjected, and after receiving the ball on the right side, he couldn't form a breakthrough, and after winning the ball, he passed a 45-degree diagonal pass into the penalty area, and Ronaldinho once again got rid of Thuram's marking, faced the incoming ball in front of the goal, and fired a half-volley.

With a bang, Ronaldinho's volley hit the crossbar of the Real Madrid goal, and it seemed to hit the hearts of all Real Madrid fans and players, scaring them one by one.

If this goal is scored, it will be a bit like Zidane's kick in the Champions League final.

"Barcelona is in full swing, and there is a lot of noise in front of Real Madrid's goal, but it seems that Yang Cheng has no choice, does he plan to continue to let Barcelona continue to create threats in his own half?"

"We can all vaguely hear the impatient voice of Real Madrid fans from the stands at the Bernabeu Stadium, many Real Madrid fans are shouting for substitutions, hoping that Real Madrid can stabilize the situation through substitutions, but Yang Cheng still has no movement, what is he thinking? Don't you see that the current situation of the team is already precarious? ”

Just when everyone thought that Yang Cheng stubbornly wanted to stick to the current tactics, Yang Cheng finally made the second substitution adjustment in this game.
