Super Marshal
Chapter 228: What a pity
The league progressed to the 22nd round.
In the first game, Real Madrid defeated Celta Vigo with a one-to-zero victory with Raúl's lore.
Bosque even replaced three stars including Zidane and Raul early in this game, which was obviously to stay for the second round of the Copa del Rey semi-final in midweek.
Deportivo also carried out a rotation, relying on Ma Kai's goal away, a one-to-zero victory over Sevilla.
Irueta also vowed to say that although he lost zero to two at home, he is still determined to come back on the road.
This battle not only has to counterattack to enter the Copa del Rey final, but also overthrow the inherent impression of Deportivo’s away game in one fell swoop.
Atletico Madrid beat Villarreal one-to-zero away.
Although it was also a small win, the Bedsheets Corps played more steadily and created more opportunities, but they didn't grasp it.
But no matter from which point of view, continuous two-line combat can maintain the momentum of winning streak, it is quite rare.
Alaves and Valencia also won successively, among which the Bat Corps was a one-to-zero victory.
Only Barcelona, which has been plagued by scandals, was beaten by the Malaga team with a goal at the Nou Camp, and the team performed extremely poorly.
This defeat also dropped Barcelona's league ranking to ninth in the league. The anger of Camp Nou fans became even more intense.
But not only that, but Brazilian superstar Rivaldo also had a disagreement with the club. In order to transfer, it was a mess.
But at this terrible moment, the mortal enemy Real Madrid stood up and fell into trouble.
General Manager Valdano said in an interview with the media that Real Madrid is very interested in introducing Rivaldo.
This also immediately aroused the indignation of the Catalan media and Barcelona fans. How can the Figo incident a year and a half ago be repeated?
For a time, the Catalan media and the Madrid media were quarreling, and it was so lively.
It was in this disturbance that the second round of the Copa del Rey semi-finals began quietly.
With a two-goal lead and returning to his home court, Atletico Madrid still played very aggressively, launching a round of steals after the opening.
Although he failed to score a goal, this round of attack disrupted Deportivo's rhythm and achieved the tactical goal Alpine wanted.
After that, the Sheets still played very patiently, and Deportivo looked more impatient. The two sides held a stalemate in Calderon for the entire first half.
But in the second half, Atletico Madrid suddenly launched a fierce attack.
After Kaka and Deco's ingenious cooperation in the middle, Deco passed to Torres in the penalty area. The latter shook off Deco Ruña’s South African defender Naibit and then made a calm push and penetrated. Molina's goal.
This was also the only goal in the game.
In the end, Atletico Madrid eliminated Deportivo de La Coruña with a total score of three to zero and entered the final smoothly.
Another match played the other day was also held at the Bernabéu Stadium in Madrid.
Before the game, the core management team such as Florentino and Valdano successively gave orders to the team, asking Real Madrid to reverse Athletic Bilbao at home anyway, and must win this game smoothly. Advance to the finals.
Bosque also produced a very aggressive four-four-two formation in this game.
It is worth mentioning that the substitute center back Pavin replaced the veteran Hierro starting, partnered with Kalanka.
Real Madrid is determined to win, and Athletic Bilbao also knows the mentality of the opponents, so in the away game, Heynckes developed a steady counterattack tactics. The whole first half kept the team as solid as gold, and did not give Real Madrid a chance. .
The two sides were playing in full swing, Real Madrid was more and more fierce in the war, and it was very risky, but Athletic Bilbao was still unmoved, reassuringly played a defensive counterattack, but played more threateningly.
Seeing that the situation is gradually leaning towards the favourable side of Athletic Bilbao, at a critical moment, Athletic Bilbao's defender Laleenza made a mistake at the critical moment and scored an own goal.
This goal completely rewritten the trend of the game.
Athletic Bilbao, which originally had the initiative, suddenly fell into a disadvantage.
Even if Heynckes was reluctant, he had to make adjustments at this time and began to counterattack.
But seven minutes later, Raul's goal further expanded Real Madrid's lead, and Guti's goal in the 75th minute completely sentenced Athletic Bilbao to death.
In the end, Real Madrid beat Athletic Bilbao 3-0 at home, and then eliminated their opponents with a total score of 4-2.
At this point, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid, rivals in the same city, will gather in the Copa del Rey final.

"Ah, what a pity!"
In the coach's office of Mahada Enda Sports City, just after watching Real Madrid's game against Athletic Bilbao, Atletico Madrid's coaches all regretted the defeat of Athletic Bilbao.
This sigh was made by a young coach who was only thirty years old, Unai Emery.
He has been playing in the low-level leagues before, but he taught himself a coaching course and has now obtained a coaching qualification certificate. He wrote to Gao Han not long ago, hoping to have the opportunity to study at Atletico Madrid.
During the team training during the winter break, Gao Han and the club arranged for several coaches, including him, to come and study. In this period of time, Unai Emery won the approval of the head coach Gao Han and was able to stay in Madrid. sports.
For this reason, he even gave up his career ahead of time.
In his words, being able to study with Alpine at Atletico Madrid is more meaningful than anything else.
"In this game, Heynckes' formation and on-the-spot command were all impeccable, but Laleenza's own goal completely changed the situation on the field. This is a crime of non-war."
Gao Han also felt sorry.
He has met the coach several times, and he is very impressed and has a very deep understanding of football. He has his own set of ideas and ideas. More importantly, he does not have the arrogance of some veteran coaches.
Judging from the two rounds of matches, Heynckes has done quite well, but if the players make mistakes, what can the head coach do?
"In this way, our final opponent is Real Madrid." Cantarello said with worry.
After hearing this, everyone felt a little nervous.
Regardless of the fact that Atletico Madrid has won three Real Madrid this season, the next fourth and fifth consecutive games will be held at the Bernabéu Stadium, especially the fifth game of the Copa del Rey final. Real Madrid is definitely determined to win. .
This will be a big test for Atletico Madrid.
After listening to Gao Han, he saw everyone's reaction in his eyes and knew in his heart that Atletico Madrid has risen too quickly and suddenly this season. The mentality of everyone in the team has not been able to keep up, so that now they are all about Real Madrid. There are also deep shadows.
This is not something that can be eliminated with three consecutive victories.
Perhaps, you can eliminate the opponent in the Copa del Rey final and win the opponent's ****, but now...
"We should think the other way around, Real Madrid may not be harder to play than Athletic Bilbao."
Having said that, Gao Han pointed to the TV and smiled confidently, "If we really meet the Bilbao team in the first half, it will be difficult for us to be sure to win against our opponents. If they are more trivial, just drag them in. The ball fight..."
After hearing Gao Han's words, everyone thought about it again, and it was indeed the case.
Athletic Bilbao was trained by Heynckes as an iron army. The style of the game is relatively rough, but not rough, and the offensive and defensive conversion speed is very fast. It is different from other La Liga teams and left a very deep impression.
"I think Mr. Gao Han is right. We have a psychological advantage when we play Real Madrid." Emery echoed.
Gao Han nodded and looked at Emery approvingly. He could see that this kid was a talent.
As a head coach, the potential is very high and a talent for the future.
However, for a 30-year-old guy to learn from his 25-year-old self, it always feels a bit...
"Two Champions Leagues in three years, last season’s league title, the team’s star-studded team, coupled with the chaos of rival Barcelona, made Real Madrid unprecedentedly confident. Therefore, they will be blindly arrogant to ask the Spanish Football Association to play the Copa del Rey. The final is scheduled to be held in the Bernabéu in advance."
When Gao Han said this, his eyes flashed sharply, "This is very arrogant in itself!"
Everyone nodded.
If you are not arrogant, who would dare to do this?
Isn't it obvious to tell the world that we are going to make this championship?
Before the game is played, booking the championship in advance is tantamount to putting the team on fire.
"Think about it again. In the second half of the first half, Real Madrid's player mentality was already out of control, and the fans at the Bernabéu Stadium couldn't sit still anymore. This was only the semi-finals, it was the final..."
Gao Han hummed twice, but said nothing, but the meaning was clear.
In the finals, their mentality will be worse and more radical.
When everyone heard Gao Han's analysis, they couldn't help but brighten up in front of them.
They really only considered the strong side of Real Madrid ~lightnovelpub.net~ and the advantage of the home game before, but they did not notice that, as Gao Han said, the bigger the ********, The more obvious the advantage of the home game, the greater the psychological pressure on Real Madrid.
On the contrary, it was the away game team. It really reached the Copa del Rey final. The visiting team did not have psychological pressure and was more relaxed.
In such a situation of declining, I am afraid it is difficult to say who is more dominant, right?
Gao Han saw that all the assistants reacted, and he couldn't help but smile again.
"Since Real Madrid dared to schedule the Copa del Rey final on the day of the ****, it shows that they have made it clear that they will not put other La Liga competitors in their eyes."
When talking about this, Gao Han raised his right hand and smiled confidently: "Then we don’t mind. On behalf of the other teams in La Liga, we will challenge our Galaxy battleships and try to see if they are really as they imagined. Strong, so invincible!"
Everyone deeply felt the strong self-confidence in Gao Han, especially Emery, who was full of admiration.
