Football’s First Defender

Relying on Yang Feng's excellent ability to grab points in the set-piece tactics in the final stage of the game, and the lore header caused by it, Real Madrid finally overtook the score at the last moment within 90 minutes of the game.

And in the last ten minutes, although Kashima Antlers, who played at home, launched a full-scale attack on Real Madrid with the loud cheers of tens of thousands of Japanese fans, but after more than 80 minutes of fierce fighting, Already corrected his mentality, played Real Madrid's defense in the state of the game, and did not give the opponent any chance.

After all, there is a fairly obvious gap in the personal strength of the players between the two teams, so after the Real Madrid players have really played their best, even if Kashima Antlers' performance has completed extraordinary performance today, but if they really want to break through Real Madrid again The line of defense is not so easy.

In the end, in the final stage of the game, Real Madrid's defense, led by Yang Feng, did not give Kashima Antlers any chance to score except for some long-range shots.

And relying on a solid defense, Real Madrid also successfully defended the score in the final stage of the game.

3 to 2, Real Madrid won the game thrillingly in the away game. At the end of the year, they won another championship honor again.

And the championship award of the Club World Cup, which was harvested again, is also the second time that Real Madrid has dominated the Club World Cup in three years.

Although this Club World Cup final was full of twists and turns, Real Madrid once fell behind in the game, which put a lot of pressure on the Real Madrid players.

But in terms of the results, the Real Madrid players are still very happy.

The honor of a "world" champion adds another touch to Real Madrid's honor book.

In Japan, after successfully winning the Club World Cup, Real Madrid did not fly back to Spain, but disbanded directly on the spot.

Because La Liga has already finished this round of matches when Real Madrid flew to Japan to participate in the Club World Cup, and then officially entered the winter break, so Real Madrid, which has no league game tasks, can finally go to recuperate up.

This short holiday allows the players, who have been tired for half a season, to take a good rest and spend Christmas with their families through the holiday, so that the players can find the goal of continuing to struggle from the warmth of the family.

The existence of the winter break is like a novelty for Yang Feng, who just transferred to La Liga and came to Real Madrid.

You know, in the past, in the Premier League games, when the New Year was approaching, it was the busiest time for the Premier League games. A high level of game enjoyment has won the attention of more and more fans.

And in La Liga, the winter break around the New Year is a short holiday for the players, and it is indeed a good opportunity for the players to relax.

The winter break of La Liga this time is from December 20 to January 7.

For Real Madrid, the Club World Cup journey ended on December 18, and then it can be regarded as a winter break ahead of other La Liga teams.

However, the holiday is early, but the time for Real Madrid to assemble is also early.

Although La Liga only restarted on January 7, for Real Madrid, they not only have league tasks.

The reason for gathering in advance is because they still have the task of the Copa del Rey, and in the knockout round of the Copa del Rey, Real Madrid will play against Sevilla at home on January 5th, so during the holiday period, Real Madrid did not leave too much time for the players.

From the end of the Club World Cup to the holiday and the gathering after Christmas, Real Madrid players only have nearly a week of rest.

Real Madrid will complete the build-up on the second day after the start of Christmas and before the New Year, and re-prepare for the second half of the season.

However, it is also nearly a week of recuperation time. For Real Madrid players who have been playing double matches in one week throughout the first half of the season, it is also a rare good opportunity to relax physically and mentally.

Although he just joined the team, Yang Feng is outstanding. His introverted personality and oriental enthusiasm helped him integrate into the team very quickly. Many teammates directly invited Yang Feng to go on a beach vacation or a cruise vacation, but Yang Feng declined all of them. Compared with Westerners who like to pursue personal enjoyment to bask in the sun or travel across the sea, Yang Feng is more willing to go back to China during this rare little vacation to spend more time with his family, parents, and Take a look at the growth of some players under the name of his football school.

This point may be the difference between Chinese and foreign cultures. Compared with pursuing personal enjoyment, Yang Feng prefers the warm feeling of a large group or family.

It just so happens that it won't take too long to return to China from Japan. For Yang Feng, he can rest at home for nearly a week, and then fly back to Madrid directly.

This kind of vacation in the middle of the season, allowing the players to have a self-rest time, did make Yang Feng a little uncomfortable, or some still couldn't relax and enjoy the vacation like other players.

Yang Feng even specifically asked the fitness coach how to ensure his training status during this short period of vacation, or how to ensure that he has an excellent continuation of the state without affecting the second half of the schedule.

In fact, for professional players, even if they don't train for a week, for them, they can have good personal ability to complete their performance on the court.

In the perception of fitness coaches, although a week of indulgence will have a great impact on the physical fitness or game state of these players, La Liga has been implementing the winter break plan, and as a top team in Real Madrid , It is also making repeated orders to the players, that is, during the one-week free holiday, although they can enjoy their holiday life, they still have very strict requirements on diet.

It’s okay to indulge once in a while, but the players can’t completely indulge themselves. After all, they will take a physical test or weigh in immediately after returning, which will intuitively reflect what the players did during this holiday.

During the one-week holiday, if these players really can't control their weight, then Zidane, as the coach, of course thinks that they are not aggressive enough.

This point, in today's Real Madrid, if you are not aggressive enough, your position may be replaced by others. Today's Real Madrid does not lack excellent players. For every position in today's Real Madrid, there is a world-class substitute who can complete the replacement at any time.

And you must know that the stronger the player, the more he can play multiple positions as a generalist to help the team, so when the head coach really abandons you, then you may have no chance to find the possibility of playing again .

As for Yang Feng, who has not been in contact with the middle of the season, he has more than two weeks of recuperation time, and there is still more than a week of completely personal vacation time.

For Yang Feng, he still needs to get a detailed plan from the physical coach to ensure that he can maintain his competitive state during this time.

For the physical coaches of Real Madrid, the only ones who are still strict with themselves during these various small holidays are none other than Yang Feng, who is also the famous training madman Ronaldo in the team.

It can only be said that the top players in various positions, the reason why they can succeed and stand out among many world-class players and become the best one, they must not only have talent, but also have the determination to train hard.

This is uncommon for many players, especially South American players, or they have more than enough energy.

Some players like to enjoy themselves in a timely manner. Since they have holidays, they just have to do what they should do during the holidays. They can wait until after the start of the season to talk about training.

Of course, because of Zidane's strict requirements, no one in the Real Madrid team dares to be the thorn in the side, so it is said that Real Madrid is now at least two seasons away, and Real Madrid is here during the winter break. The weight gain and state decline are not too large, which can make the work of the physical fitness coach a little easier.

After playing the final of the Club World Cup, after the team had a dinner in the evening, the Real Madrid players went their separate ways early the next morning. Some chose to go back to their hometown to relax, and some chose to go back to Spain to enjoy Spain. Sun and sand, while others deal with their own personal matters.

Like Ronaldo, in every free period, he has to travel all over the world to shoot advertising tasks. For Yang Feng, after rejecting some advertising contracts, he returned to China to enjoy the rare time before the new year. Chance to relax.

But for Yang Feng, the so-called relaxation is actually more about reunion with his family and some private social activities.

Compared with European and American players who relax and prefer to enjoy the sun on the beach alone, Yang Feng's relaxation usually means going back to have some gatherings with his relatives and friends.

Of course, at this kind of gathering, although you can't get rid of the wine table culture, Yang Feng will also keep his mouth shut at the gathering, try not to drink or eat something that is not suitable for professional players.

More for Yang Feng, what he pursues is a kind of spiritual enjoyment and a kind of physical relaxation without the pressure of the game.

However, the holiday still has a certain impact on Yang Feng.

Even if Yang Feng still finds time to do some training such as equipment training and some long pass exercises, but in terms of training volume, it is definitely not comparable to that during the season.

Just like what the fitness coach said, the holiday should look like a holiday. You can keep training, but you don’t have to keep high-intensity training, you just need to keep your body from slacking off.

Sometimes relaxation is for better performance in the future. After all, the whole season is too long, interspersed with a week of relaxation time, which is more conducive to players to adjust their psychology and complete better in the subsequent schedule. play.

For Yang Feng, this holiday is different from the long holidays after the end of the season in the past, and it really relaxes the tense spirit caused by the half of the season.

And this kind of proper relaxation is just not enough to let the players get tired, and it won't make the players slack off the game.

After a week of relaxation time. Yang Feng also flew directly to Madrid from China.

Real Madrid's early assembly is to prepare for the second half of the season, especially the cup competition.

Because there is still the Copa del Rey game, on January 5th, Real Madrid will face Sevilla at home in the first round.

Sevilla is not an opponent that can be easily defeated, so for Real Madrid, after Christmas again, the team will gather before the New Year to prepare for the game against Sevilla.

Of course, on the first day of the assembly, Real Madrid conducted some tests on the players' physical fitness, weight and various obvious physical indicators. Fortunately, although there is a one-week holiday, for the players of Real Madrid, no one will make such a low-level mistake when the competition for positions is quite fierce this season. Although the players may relax a little, However, the individual's physical condition has not been greatly affected.

The ones most praised by head coach Zidane are, of course, C Ronaldo and Yang Feng. When returning from the offseason in the past, Ronaldo must be the most praised, because even though he is participating in various business activities and staying on vacation, But Ronaldo's training volume will not be reduced too much.

In terms of maintaining physical function, Ronaldo has always been the top player among Real Madrid players, which is also a strict requirement for himself as a top-ranked superstar in the world.

Now there is a person comparable to Ronaldo, that is Yang Feng, who is new to Real Madrid this season. Yang Feng also proved why with his outstanding performance. As a player who is not a traditional football power, as an Asian player, Yang Feng was able to change the Asian players' style of play and become a world-class top central defender. It is because Yang Feng not only has enough talent, but also has a very good training volume and hard training spirit to maintain Keep yourself in the best condition.

The physical test data of the two are guaranteed to be not much different from that of the season. Ronaldo and Yang Feng are definitely a benchmark for all players

.

As Zidane who came from the player era, he also knows that the long schedule of this kind of league and the rest time during the winter break are a rare opportunity for players to relax, and it is also a way for players to adjust their mental state A good time, so, although it has many strict requirements for the players.

However, with a slight decline in physical fitness, Zidane can be regarded as turning a blind eye. As long as they are not too indulgent this week, then Zidane will not put too much pressure on the players.

Because of the fierce competition, the players of Real Madrid will certainly not relax too much.

A vacation is a vacation, a game is a game, how to maintain the state of the game, most Real Madrid players have a lot of experience in dealing with this aspect.

Therefore, there was not much difference in state. After two days of recovery training, Real Madrid also began to carry out tactical training. Aiming at the opponent of Sevilla, a special troop deployment was carried out before the start of the game.
