Ball king grower

Chelsea's iron-barrel formation in the last few minutes made many Real Madrid fans and neutral fans very unhappy. They felt that this was a step backwards for football and a shameless approach.

But one person was very happy, and that was Lin Yu.

Why? Because Lin Yu found that he no longer had to stick to the midfielder position, and the opponent had no chance to attack at all.

Although Lin Yu followed Zidane's arrangements in this game and defended from the midfielder position, deep down, he is still a player who prefers offense. Offense is his life, everything about him, and

No wonder Zidane said he was wronged. It must be such a difficult decision to let such an outstanding forward play as a defensive midfielder.

In the last period of time, Chelsea's defense was very hard, because Lin Yu seemed to want to vent all the anger he suffered from being a defensive midfielder in these few minutes, which caused a tremor in front of Chelsea's goal.

The Chelsea players defended desperately, but Lin Yu still seized a chance, but this time the shot hit the crossbar firmly, shocking the Chelsea players into cold sweat and Mourinho as well.

of cold sweat.

Mourinho shouted from the sidelines: "Hold on, time is running out, hold on!"

At this moment, no matter how famous the coach is, all he can do is cheer the players on the sidelines.

Fortunately, Chelsea's players were good enough. Although they gave Lin Yu several chances to shoot, and although Lin Yu almost scored again, they still managed to hold on to the score until the last minute.

When the referee blew the whistle to end the game, Chelsea's players almost collapsed and fell to the ground one by one. I have never felt so tired, especially in the last few minutes. It was like...

It's like fighting with the devil.

Lin Yu failed to score in the last minute, which made many people feel very regretful. If he had scored the ball that hit the crossbar, he would have gone to Stamford Bridge with a score of 3:1 and his chances of promotion would have been greater.

Now, it's hard to tell. It's just a 2:1. Facing a team like Chelsea again, it's definitely not easy to play.

After the game, a reporter interviewed Lin Yu and asked: "Did the injury affect your condition, causing your shots in the second half to not seem to be that many?"

"I originally wanted to save my strength, but it's a pity. There was an accident in the game, and I was placed in the midfielder position. Naturally, I was far away from the goal."

"Does that mean you made a miscalculation?"

"Miscalculation? No, no, no, even if no more goals are scored in this game, there is still the next round."

"Then what do you think of the current score? Do you feel uneasy?"

"Uneasy? Are you kidding? Chelsea is very strong, but we are even stronger! And you have to understand that if they want to advance in the second round, they have to attack. Aren't I going to have a lot of chances by then?

? Don’t worry, we will advance. Even in front of Mourinho, I dare to say this."

If another person said this, I don't know how he would be scolded, but when these words came out of Lin Yu's mouth, it would be a different feeling. It seemed that it was possible for him to be true.

It seems to have happened, after all, this is not the first time. Few people dare to question him anymore.

…

After the game, the media also interviewed Mandzukic, who performed very well in the game, hoping to get some explosive news from him. For example, he was dissatisfied with Mourinho's arrangements, such as being dissatisfied with the team's shrinking tactics, etc. Anyway,

This is what reporters like to do. It is their bounden duty to avoid chaos in the world. If the world is peaceful, how will they make a living?

However, they were disappointed. Mandzukic was very supportive of the coach's arrangements for this game. He said in an interview: "Facts have proved that Mourinho's judgment was correct. Most of the time, we chose to defend and counterattack.

, that’s why we were able to create many threatening opportunities. If I hadn’t wasted two must-goals, today’s score might have been 3:2. That’s right, we were 3 and they were 2. We will bring a

A win and three away goals to prepare for the second leg.”

"But in the last period, you seemed to be working very hard on defense. Why didn't you attack?"

"You should understand that at that time we all had some physical problems. If we continued to attack, it would not be for the sake of attacking, but to seek death."

Mandzukic's words directly blocked the reporter's mouth. He did this not because he thought that the reporter would take advantage of him, but because he really thought so. He just felt that except for the substitution, this game was a little late.

In addition, Mourinho's arrangement was perfect, but he failed to seize the opportunity.

At the post-match press conference, Mourinho's words seemed as if they had been discussed with Mandzukic.

"No matter what, the result of this game is quite satisfactory. Mandzukic's performance was also very good. He did what a striker should do. He scored. Do I need to say more?"

"But he missed two great scoring opportunities."

"Yes, you are right. He missed two opportunities, but he made up for it quickly. I like this kind of good players who know their mistakes and can correct them. I believe he will be the best in the next round.

I won’t make similar mistakes again.”

In fact, Mourinho also felt that it was a pity to miss two chances to score goals, but he really didn't blame Mandzukic. If he was really angry, he would have replaced Mandzukic long ago. Who would bother him?

When there are no mistakes, he cannot do such a thing just because of one or two mistakes. But if Mandzukic continues to make such mistakes in the second half, it will be different. He will definitely not do it.

Criticize Mandzukic with mercy.

Fortunately, the Croatian did not disappoint him. Not only did he not make the same mistake again, but he also helped the team score an away goal. Perhaps this away goal can help Chelsea advance to the final.

"Some people say your tactics are too conservative. What do you think?"

"Let them come and tell me face to face."

"..."

"So do you think Chelsea is not as good as Real Madrid? If it is really not as good as Real Madrid, what is the problem?"

"Strength cannot represent everything. Our team can only be said to be inferior to Real Madrid in terms of statistics."

"Do you feel it is a pity for Lin Yu to move to Real Madrid? Do you still regret not being able to keep Lin Yu?"

"I'm sorry, I never thought about it that way. Lin Yu is very strong, but after all, he is just a person. My team is a group. We can defeat him and his team." Mourinho actually said this.

It was a bit wrong to say what he said. In fact, he almost regretted it in his heart. If he had kept Lin Yu in vain, maybe he would not be in today's situation. Why are you so generous and let him go like this?

A good player.

But he can't say that. If he really says it, it will damage the team's morale and be detrimental to the team's unity.

"What do you think Chelsea's chances of promotion are?"

"Let's give it a 50-50 split. After all, we are playing at home and will have some advantages, but Real Madrid is stronger, so we each have a 50-50 chance."

"So confident?"

"Having a 50-50 victory is called confidence? So should I say there is no hope for you to think I'm being humble?" Mourinho asked rhetorically.

In fact, the probability mentioned by Mourinho is basically accurate. He took into account the advantages and disadvantages of the home and away games. He also took into account the schedule of both sides and the strength of the players on both sides.

If Real Madrid didn't have Lin Yu, if Mourinho really dared to say that he would be 100% promoted, it would be no lie.

When he thought of Lin Yu, Mourinho felt a burst of regret in his heart. Why couldn't he keep him in the first place? Even if he was acting like a rogue. It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in this world. Things that are missed are not good after all.

Just missed it.

…

In the Champions League semi-final showdown with Chelsea, Real Madrid finally won a victory. Although this victory came a little harder, the score was only 2:1 in the end, but fortunately they won the game instead of a draw. This is

The most important thing is that if it was just a 1:1 draw, the situation would be completely different.

Before the game, many media thought that this game would be a fierce battle. In fact, the result was the same. Chelsea's players were exhausted in the end, and the same was true for Real Madrid's players? Lin Yu, who has never known fatigue, this

After the game, I was too tired to walk.

The most tragic thing is that Lin Yu was injured. After the game, he went to the hospital for a very detailed examination. Although it was determined that there was no major problem, the injury was an injury after all. Many people were thinking about whether Zidane would be injured.

He hid Lin Yu in the league and sent a team without Lin Yu to compete with Getafe away from home.

Although the thirty-third round of the league is not a peak showdown, it is something that cannot be lost for Real Madrid. Whether Lin Yu can play has also become the focus of media attention, and does Zidane dare to let it go?

It is also a test for Lin Yu to sit on the bench or even come up with the roster.

Although the Champions League semi-final against Chelsea was not perfect, it doesn't matter, they should focus on the league.

Finally, when the league started, people discovered that Zidane actually made Lin Yu sit on the bench, and in this game, Lin Yu was not given a minute of playing time from beginning to end.

The result of the game was good, a 1:0 victory and three points.

When reporters asked Zidane at the post-match press conference why he wanted Lin Yu to sit on the bench, Zidane smiled and said: "You seem to have forgotten a more important game.

I need him to get some rest."

The reporters suddenly realized that after this league is over, it will be the final of the Copa del Rey. Zidane once said that Real Madrid is going to have a mixed team to play in this final. As the core Lin Yu can rely on, then

You must have a good rest.

As a result, the media's attention quickly shifted from the league to the Copa del Rey final. All the media were very concerned about how this unique final would end.

It was Real Madrid who reaped the consequences and ultimately failed and lost to Maicheng.

Or will Barcelona ultimately be unable to match Lin Yu's powerful ability and lose the Copa del Rey that they just regained last season?

The media supporting Real Madrid have already begun to cheer for the team.

"We have prepared a celebration ceremony. No matter who the opponent is, our team is invincible." The news in "Marca" was very explicit and expressed its trust and support for Real Madrid in no subtle way.

Many neutral fans said, "Be careful if your character is ruined and you just lose it. It's not like there are no such examples. If you prepare a celebration so early, if you don't win the championship, won't you become a laughing stock?"

However, the media who support Real Madrid obviously don't care about this. Their confidence in Real Madrid has been accumulated over several seasons, so they have reason to believe that this team can continue to create glory.

"Just after we eliminated Malaga in the semi-finals, you may not want to admit Lin Yu's greatness, the hard work and fighting spirit of this motley crew, but if we win the King's Cup, you will have to admit it.

, Come on, boys, come on, our God!" (To be continued...)
