Golden Greenery

By late February, the Real Madrid team finally came out of the haze of being eliminated from the Copa del Rey by Barcelona, ​​because they were 10 points ahead in La Liga.

Since losing the Copa del Rey, before the knockout rounds of the Champions League and the national team match day came, Real Madrid, who was focused on nothing else, won four consecutive league games in one go. Real Madrid scored 13 goals and conceded 3 goals in four games. Zhuo Yang passed 3 passes and shot 2 shots.

In this wave of market conditions, Barcelona not only played two more games in the Copa del Rey and was eliminated by Valencia, but also tied with Villarreal 0:0 and lost 2:3 in two away games in the league. In Osasuna. As a result, the point difference between Barcelona and Real Madrid quickly widened from the original 5 points to 10 points.

The 24 rounds of La Liga in 2011-12 have been played. With Real Madrid's status in the league this year, the 10-point gap is almost a huge gap to catch up, which makes Barcelona very difficult.

It is impossible to give up in the league. As a wealthy club, quitting in the face of difficulties will tarnish the team's temperament and will be criticized by many people. Barcelona cannot afford to lose this person.

However, the slim hope has made the pursuit useless. Forcibly chasing up will inevitably involve the issue of personnel rotation in the second half of the season, which will then affect the defense of the Champions League, which will only make the gains outweigh the losses.

Just one win and one loss in two Copa del Rey knockout rounds affected Barcelona's 5-point gain in the league, which cannot but arouse the team's attention.

Messi is not a talkative person, Xiaobai is also relatively taciturn, and Xiaojie talks more than shit, but he knows what to say and what not to say. Only Mr. Dan is always enthusiastic. When he and Zhuo Yang chatted on the phone, they revealed the current entanglements within Barcelona.

After listening to Alves's confusing talk, Zhuoyang said nothing. He put down the phone and secretly complained: Last year when the three fronts were advancing at the same time, he didn't have so many worries. He kept his head buried and fought hard one after another. That’s it, there’s not so much confusion.

Zhuoyang didn't think that deeply. In fact, Barcelona's entanglement at this time was related to him.

Despite the media's boasting, everyone within Barcelona, ​​from the top management to the locker room, knows that six crowns cannot eliminate Zhuo Yang's mark of bringing three crowns to Barcelona. Six crowns sounds good, but it is a gimmick. Mostly.

Only by defending the Triple Crown can we truly step out of the shadow of Zhuoyang in the past and prove that Barcelona is still the best team in the world without Zhuoyang.

But now that the Copa del Rey is in vain, the league is in danger. If we try our best to save the league, but fail in the end and lose the Champions League, changing from the triple crown last season to three nothings, this would be ridiculous. It would be ridiculous to mention the six crowns again. It became a forced application of powder.

Defending the triple crown has failed. The next best thing is to maintain the double crown. The bottom line is that there must be a championship. Which one is more important, this is the root of Barcelona's dilemma.

.

The enemy's pain is our happiness, and harming others is the basis of happiness!

Having cut off their worries about the Copa del Rey, Real Madrid, which has won four consecutive league games, happily went to Moscow to start the new season's journey to the Champions League knockout rounds.

This time in the top 16 grouping, Real Madrid's luck is good or bad. CSKA Moscow cannot be called a strong opponent, but Russia, which is freezing in February, is the biggest enemy of Real Madrid people who are used to warmth like spring.

In the draw of the top 16, Barcelona and Fort Madi met on a narrow road, which is a bit interesting.

Meng Er and his Naples had just defeated Piggy in the group stage, and then faced Scar and his Chelsea in the top 16. Over the years, the second brother has always been against his brothers, especially Xiaozhu.

Dortmund met Inter Milan. From a basic perspective, it was the most evenly matched contest. It was more like Arsenal and AC Milan than them.

Xiaozhu and his Bayern were drawn against Basel in Switzerland this time, so they should have taken advantage.

CSKA is not easy to play. La Liga teams have visited here seven times before and failed to win seven times. If they can tie and take one point home, it is a gain.

Although today is the first time Real Madrid played against CSKA, Real Madrid has come to Moscow six times in history, but only won once. In the second group stage of the UEFA Champions League in the 2002/03 season,

Ronaldo's goal helped Real Madrid beat Lokomotiv Moscow 1:0 away from home. In addition, Real Madrid had 2 draws and 5 losses in Moscow.

In the freezing cold of minus 5 degrees Celsius, Real Madrid players walked into the Luzhniki Stadium. All of them, including Zhuo Yang, wore thickened winter jerseys with lining inside. The long socks looked like pantyhose, and Zhuo Yang's hands Wearing gloves too.

In fact, the CSKA players are similar. The Russian Super League has a winter break of more than three months. From late November to mid-March next year, CSKA is actually still in the truce period. Therefore, their players are not necessarily more cold-resistant than Real Madrid players.

But the fans in Moscow were really freezing. There were 80,000 people in the stadium, and shirtless people could be seen everywhere, with palm-wide hair that protected their hearts fluttering in the wind.

The chests and backs of these people were all red. I don't know whether they were from the cold or they took pictures to keep warm. In short, either way was cruel enough.

Although Zhuoyang played four 90 minutes in the previous four consecutive league points-grabbing battles, he still started this game. Apart from Cassie, Zhuoyang is Real Madrid's attendance king this season. Detu was rotated and sat on the bench with Kaka.

Alonso and Khedira, who have returned from injury, also started. As the critical period of the season approaches, Real Madrid only has Di Maria with a minor injury, and it is only a minor strain.

On the other hand, CSKA, perhaps because of the truce period in the Russian Super League, their Chilean midfielder Gonzalez and goalkeeper Akinfeev, who once impressed Zhuo Yang, are both absent today due to injuries.

Playing coldly, Zhuo Yang, Ronaldo, and Khedira tested CSKA's substitute goalkeeper Sergey Chepchugov with long-range shots three times in the first five minutes, allowing him to quickly warm up.

Moscow is not only cold, but also has artificial turf, which is a bit awkward for La Liga players who are accustomed to technical flow. No matter dribbling or breakthrough, there is a slight feeling that it is not in place.

So Real Madrid played very concisely today, mostly using long passes and transfers.

In the 28th minute, Zhuoyang received Ozil's pass from the frontcourt and pushed the ball directly with the arch of his foot. The football flew across the cold sky, and Ronaldo from the far end succeeded in volleying in the penalty area, 1:0.

Cristiano Ronaldo, like Zhuo Yang, is both left and right-footed, with no reverse foot, so he is very flexible in running and changing positions. Coupled with his ultra-long shooting range, Cristiano Ronaldo has almost no blind spots in the frontcourt.

In the 33rd minute, Cristiano Ronaldo and Ozil changed positions. Zhuo Yang's long pass from the backcourt was very accurate. Cristiano Ronaldo stretched out his right foot to unload the ball, and then watched helplessly as the ball flew out of the field.

Mr. Luo: "..."

Something that doesn't warrant praise.

In fact, the biggest gimmick in today's game is not any of Ronaldo's feet, nor is it the fact that Shui Ye and Mourinho forcefully pretend to be harmonious to the outside world.

The two best players in Asia today, Zhuo Yang and Keisuke Honda, this is an East Asian derby.
