From coaching Real Madrid

Midnight on September 15th, Sevilla Pizjuan Stadium.

When the referee Malenko blew the whistle for the end of the game, the entire Pizjuan Stadium burst into crazy cheers from Sevilla fans. Gao Shen stood in front of the visiting team's coaching bench with a depressed face.

.

Zero to zero, this was the final result shown on the scoreboard.

Both sides took thirty-three shots in this game, but failed to score a single goal.

Among them, the Real Madrid team shot 25 shots, nine on target and two on the post, all of which were rejected by Sevilla's old goalkeeper Palop.

What else can Gao Shen say?

When the final whistle sounded, Sevilla's head coach and former Real Madrid Five Eagles Michel walked towards Gao Shen with a smile on his face and extended his hand from a distance.

"You guys played really well tonight..." Gao Shen smiled bitterly and shook his head, unable to express himself.

Michelle herself was a little embarrassed.

Today, he deployed a three-midfield combination of Maduro, Medel and Campana in the midfield, making it clear that he must defend to the death.

The center forward is Gao Shen's favorite player when he first coached Real Madrid, Negredo, and the right wing is the combination of fast horse Navas and Cicinho. It is this right wing, plus Negredo, that makes Real Madrid's

There were two close calls on defense.

One time was less than a minute into the game. Navas and Negredo had consecutive opportunities to kick in the penalty area, but they were saved by goalkeeper Courtois and failed to score.

But after that, it was difficult for Sevilla to create chances again.

The reason why there was a problem at the start was also related to Gao Shen's formation for this game.

Goalkeeper: Courtois.

Defence: Marcos Alonso, Varane, Pepe and Carvajal.

Midfield: Casemiro deep, Toni Kroos and Verratti in the centre.

Forwards: Cristiano Ronaldo, Benzema and Vazquez.

Gao Shen did not go all out in this game, but rotated young players to give them more opportunities.

In fact, this group of young players from Real Madrid performed well and played with great vigor.

Of course, this is also related to Sevilla being affected by the national team, but the performance of this group of young players in Real Madrid is okay.

Marcos Alonso and Varane partnered for the first time. Except for the opening mistake, they contained Navas' attack on the right and Negredo's connection in the center.

This is really not easy for the two young defenders.

Carvajal also showed his offensive power on the right, playing lively with Vazquez on the wing, and Vazquez hit the post with a shot.

With a ball possession rate of close to 70% and an overwhelming advantage, but they failed to score a goal, what can Real Madrid say?

Cristiano Ronaldo was really out of form tonight and was a little anxious even when he played late.

Gao Shen replaced Ronaldo with Yin Guayin in the second half, but the Argentine forward also hit the post once and failed to repeat Real Madrid's legend of scoring goals as a substitute in three consecutive games this season.

…

"Barcelona has won again, you have to be prepared to bear the pressure." Michel sighed and said.

Although he is the head coach of Sevilla, he is also a famous Real Madrid player. He has coached Real Madrid's second team for a long time. He also has a very good relationship with Gao Shen and has had many interactions with him before.

There was even a talk before that he would be invited back to the Bernabeu to serve as Gao Shen's assistant.

As a result, they are now tied with Real Madrid at home.

"There's nothing to stress about. We have to do this. There's another away game next Wednesday. How can we not save some energy?"

Michelle nodded, "The media won't think about us like that."

"Whatever, I have to give these young players more opportunities to practice in the game, so that they can become familiar with the rhythm of the game as soon as possible and grow up as soon as possible. The team will form an effective rotation mechanism. Only by fighting on two fronts can we have a chance. Just rely on that alone.

You can't last a season with a main lineup."

Since Gao Shen dug up the youth team this summer, promoted young players, and recalled Marcos Alonso, everyone knew that he was going to dig deep within the team.

But there was nothing we could do in the first three rounds. There was one game a week, and Gao Shen couldn't rest the main players, but it's different now.

Tonight, Real Madrid's main problem is their bad luck.

As long as one goal is scored between two mid-posts, the game is won.

But what can be done?

If the main players are unwilling to rotate when participating in the national team competition, especially the South American international players who have traveled a long distance, then the young players and substitute players in the team will be disappointed and will seriously lack motivation.

But the consequences of rotation are also obvious, like now, being beaten by Barcelona to four points.

Gao Shen's return was all down to luck, because Real Madrid's own performance was indeed not ideal.

"Keep up the good work!" In the end, Michelle could only give one sentence of encouragement.

Gao Shen actually smiled and thanked, "Don't worry, our most important task now is to catch Barcelona in the standings, try not to widen the points gap, and stay in the first team to win the championship."

"You have also seen the performance of this group of young players. If we practice more and they grow up, our stamina will increase, and then we will start to exert our strength."

This is why Gao Shen said that Real Madrid this season will be a team with great potential.

Many people only saw that Real Madrid was tied with Sevilla in an away game and lost another two points, but they did not see that Real Madrid adopted two completely different tactics in this game.

One set is the main tactic of 433 that has been practiced in depth, and the other set is 4312. The young player Yinske is used as the first tactic, and Yinske is directly allowed to free up his hands and feet to rush, and the performance is very good.

Gao Shen had practiced this style of play in warm-up matches before, but this was the first time he used it in an official match.

In the second half, although Sevilla's physical energy was almost exhausted, the effect was still very good.

Yin Guayin's center post came from Yinske's breakaway goal.

…

Sure enough, Barcelona defeated Getafe 4-1 away from home in this round, leading the standings with a complete victory.

Real Madrid's league ranking suddenly dropped to fourth place, overtaken by Atletico Madrid and Malaga.

What's even more interesting is that Getafe had previously drawn with Real Madrid at home, in the same stadium and with the same opponent, only two games apart.

After the game, many media reporters started to make things difficult for Gao Shen.

Gao Shen did not shirk responsibility, but took all the problems on himself.

"The rotation is a decision I made, because we have an away game to play next Wednesday, and we are going to Germany. I have to be prepared for this, so I arranged some teams that are far away or have played more for the national team.

Players rest."

Gao Shen explained his intention.

But he didn't think Real Madrid performed badly in this game.

"The away draw with Sevilla, I don't think it's an unattainable result. On the contrary, I think it's pretty good."

"Compared to everyone focusing only on results, I would rather see my players taking advantage every minute of the game and working hard to create opportunities."

Gao Shen named several players, including Carvajal on the right. He thought the youngster's performance left a deep impression on people. Whether it was speed, technique or attack power, they were all outstanding.

Vazquez is very hardworking and diligent, and he is also a noteworthy player.

Needless to say, Varane, Verratti helped the team firmly control the rhythm and possession of the ball in the midfield after he came on the field. Casemiro made many mistakes, but the overall performance was remarkable.

"His physicality, confrontation, and defensive performance, I think this is a player worth looking forward to."

"Insko was the one who stood out to me the most in this game. I think he is the kind of player who has the ability to break the deadlock. But unfortunately, we were a little unlucky."

Gao Shen did not deny that the performance of Real Madrid's players was not good enough.

"But our group of young players are still improving. I meet with them every day. I can clearly see that they are improving and growing. I think they are the future of Real Madrid!"

Compared with his amazing performance in the last round, Hesse's performance in this round was relatively average, but Gao Shen also expressed his understanding.

Young players cannot perform well in every game, they are always ups and downs.

"I still say the same thing. It's too early to evaluate the championship now. We will prove our strength!"

…

The media's attitude towards Real Madrid's performance is quite divided.

The attitude of the media close to Real Madrid is basically relatively tolerant. They think that it is really good that a sophisticated team can still escape the away game against Sevilla despite a large number of rotations.

Especially when several young players in the team performed really well.

Alfredo, editor-in-chief of Aspen, believes that Gao Shen's idea is right. The league is a long process, and it doesn't make much sense to rush to seize the opportunity now.

"Real Madrid should maintain the pressure on Barcelona now, work hard to cultivate young players in the team, and build momentum for the team."

Alfredo reminds everyone that the league has just begun.

However, many media believe that after only four rounds of the league, Real Madrid is already four points behind Barcelona, ​​which is really detrimental to their pursuit of the championship this season.

More importantly, the advanced team did not perform at a convincing enough level.

With two wins and two draws in four games, they seemed to remain unbeaten, but the two wins were at home and the two away games were all draws.

"It's hard to believe that this is Real Madrid, one of the Spanish Super League duos who aspire to be champions!"

The Catalan media are hyping up the situation. Messi scored twice again in this round, catching up with Real Madrid's Cristiano Ronaldo with a six-goal advantage. This made the goal between the two superstars

The war is in full swing.

In the game against Sevilla, Cristiano Ronaldo's depressed expression when he was substituted was interpreted as dissatisfaction with the coach, especially before the season, there were rumors of discord between the two.

Regarding the hype from outside media, Gao Shen kept a low profile. In his private communication with Cristiano Ronaldo, he also asked the Portuguese not to clarify the matter to the outside world, lest media reporters would seize the opportunity to make further hype.

Next, the away game against Dortmund was a tough battle, and Gao Shen had to be cautious.

Especially Dortmund, which just defeated the pharmaceutical company Bayer Leverkusen 3-0 at home in the third round of the Bundesliga.

Klopp's team is in great form!
