Midfielder Ruler

Cristiano Ronaldo has been competing with Tang Zheng since Tang Zheng transferred to Real Madrid, so he realized that Tang Zheng worked harder to practice free kicks and began to work hard, trying to beat Tang Zheng.

There may be a gap in the field of talent, but hard work must not admit defeat.

So, Cristiano Ronaldo worked even harder for additional training, even when Tang Zheng left the training ground, he still persisted.

The head coach's office in the Valdebebas office building can see the first team training ground. This design allows the head coach to see the competitive state of the players' training at any time.

Not long after, as night fell, Ancelotti and his coaching team finished their research on Levante, their next-round league opponent, and prepared to leave work.

He subconsciously walked to the window, stretched his waist, and looked at the first team training ground naturally.

"Hey, isn't this Cristiano?" Ancelotti stretched stiffly, and said unexpectedly, "Why haven't you left yet?"

Clement and Zidane also stretched their waists and walked to the window, looking at the first team training ground, where a familiar figure was practicing free kicks again and again.

Ancelotti looked down at the time displayed on his wrist watch, and it was seven o'clock in the evening local time in Spain.

Logically speaking, neither Tang Zheng nor Cristiano Ronaldo's extra training in the past would exceed six o'clock. Why did Cristiano Ronaldo not withdraw at seven o'clock today?

On the first-team training ground, Cristiano Ronaldo kicked a direct free kick about 28 meters away into the theoretical dead corner on the left side of the goal. He exhaled and muttered to himself: "Finally completed a hundred direct free kicks!" The task of getting the ball into the theoretical corner."

At the same time, Ancelotti saw Cristiano Ronaldo packing his things and walking towards the living building. He also said to Clement and Zidane: "Paul, Zidan, we should go too, tomorrow's league game will not be tolerated." If there is a loss, you have to recharge your energy."

"Um."

Clemente and Zidane nodded slightly respectively, and followed Ancelotti out of the head coach's office.

...

The focus of the eighth round of the 2013-2014 La Liga season was held at the Municipal Stadium in the Valencia region. Levante played against Real Madrid at home.

Because Atletico Madrid and Barcelona, ​​who took the lead in the battle, won the game respectively, temporarily pulling the difference between them to eight points. If Real Madrid can't beat Levante, who is temporarily unbeaten at home and concedes only one goal, then they will be far away. The first group is farther away.

Real Madrid superstars also know this well, so they put pressure on the home team Levante's defense at the beginning of the game, but the Levante players sitting in the Municipal Stadium have long been mentally prepared. They know that their abilities cannot be compared with Real Madrid players, so Strictly implement the defensive tactics of head coach Caparros and place a bus in front of the goal.

Levante's defensive thinking is very clear, that is, based on the 30-meter defensive area, to prevent Real Madrid's goal scorer from gaining any space.

Whether it is offense or defense, modern football games pursue space.

The offense creates and exploits space, and the defender occupies and controls space.

Judging from the first ten minutes of the game, Levante, who played at home, did very well.

In addition, David Navarro, who once played for Valencia, is very good at protecting the defense, and he also knows how to take advantage of the impatience of Real Madrid players.

Cristiano Ronaldo couldn't find his own space in Levante's solid defense system,

He can only pull to the side to catch the ball and try to use his personal dribbling to create opportunities.

However, Levante coach Caparros has made a detailed response strategy for Cristiano Ronaldo's habit of catching the ball before the game, so Cristiano Ronaldo's offense has been repeatedly frustrated, and even after a failed breakthrough, he did not follow the action. A clean David Navarro gets into an altercation.

Seeing that their foreheads were pressed against their foreheads, the referee looked like an angry bull, so he immediately blew his whistle to separate them.

Considering that the game has been fairly clean so far, the referee did not give a card, but each party gave a verbal warning.

Neither Cristiano Ronaldo nor Navarro are satisfied with the referee's decision

Cristiano Ronaldo believes that Navarro's defensive action has the intention of additional damage and should be warned with a yellow card, while Navarro believes that Cristiano Ronaldo's reaction is too exaggerated and deliberately provoked his own bad emotions.

In the end, the two left the scene of the incident under the push of their teammates.

Despite this, Cristiano Ronaldo still had plausible words in his mouth, obviously dissatisfied with Navarro's additional actions just now.

Immediately, the on-site director gave a slow-motion playback.

Central 5 commentator He Wei said seriously: "David Navarro's move is really bad. He didn't retract his leg after shoveling the football, and kicked directly to Ronaldo's ankle. No wonder Ronaldo reacted so badly. "

Guest commentator Zhang Lu said: "David Navarro is notorious in La Liga. His playing style is tough, but sometimes he can't control his movements. I remember the second leg of the Champions League 1/8 final in the 2006-2007 season. The group fight in Valencia's elimination of Inter Milan was caused by his punch in the face of Burdisso, so Ronaldo and other Real Madrid players should control their emotions and not give the other party any chance to take advantage of it."

"Director Zhang is right. Real Madrid's overall strength is obviously more than two chips higher than Levante. As long as the Real Madrid players maintain a good mentality, the offense will come naturally." He Wei watched the broadcast camera switch to Tang Zheng, and his voice changed. : "Tang Zheng's ability to control his emotions is not bad. As Real Madrid's player who has been violated the most by Levante players, he can always keep a calm head, which is rare..."

The game passed quickly while He Wei and Zhang Lu were chatting. Real Madrid still controlled the rhythm of the game, but Levante did a good job of defending and counterattacked well. The Portuguese star Simao, who once played for Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, fully Show off the characteristic that ginger is old and spicy.

Fortunately, goalkeeper Diego Lopez was in good form, facing Simão with a semi-single-handed chance to save the ball from the baseline.

With that verbal conflict with David Navarro, Cristiano Ronaldo began to retreat consciously. He is not a brain that can grow into one of the best players in the world.

Recently, it has been receiving much media attention, coupled with the fact that this round of the league cannot be missed, Cristiano Ronaldo wisely chose to keep a low profile.

But Levante's tactical thinking at home was unified, and Cristiano Ronaldo did not find even a chance.

Tang Zheng controlled the offensive rhythm of Real Madrid's midfield, but because he did not form a tacit understanding with Cristiano Ronaldo, Real Madrid's offense looked a little different, very non-mainstream.

Therefore, the score did not change when the whistle sounded at the end of the first half.

0:0

The live director's close-up shots showed the players of both sides one after another. The Levante players at home looked very satisfied, and the Real Madrid players who were guests frowned.

Because Barcelona and Atletico Madrid won the game in the first game, if Real Madrid can't win this round, the points will be further opened.

Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti's expression is particularly obvious, his brows are frowned, and anyone with a little bit of thinking ability can see that his heart is heavy.

The media said that it is difficult to be the head coach of Real Madrid, and Ancelotti really felt it after taking over Real Madrid.

The Real Madrid soldiers who returned to the visiting team's locker room were full of worries and the atmosphere was depressing.

The temporary big score behind almost crushed them.

The 15-minute intermission passed quickly. In the second half, they changed sides and fought again. Real Madrid strengthened the ball from the two sides, allowing Tang Zheng, Cristiano Ronaldo and Benzema to enter the penalty area to compete for the top.

Judging from the previous two attacks, the effect was quite good.

Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo grabbed a goal respectively, but they failed to pose any threat to the goal guarded by Costa Rican goalkeeper Navas under their own interference.

David Navarro, who is experienced in the game, even mocked Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo, thanking them for helping his team complete the clearance.

Tang Zheng's attitude was very upright, he didn't feel any anger because of David Navarro's sarcasm.

The irritable Cristiano Ronaldo couldn't help it, he pushed David Navarro with his chest.

And this scene happened to be caught by the on-duty referee Burgos. He thought that Cristiano Ronaldo's actions were provocative, so he quickly ran to Cristiano Ronaldo and showed a yellow card.

Cristiano Ronaldo still wanted to say something to the referee Burgos, but was pushed away by Benzema to prevent him from becoming emotional.

"woo woo woo"

Meanwhile, huge boos erupted at the Municipal Stadium for Cristiano Ronaldo.

The broadcast screen was aimed at Cristiano Ronaldo. Judging from his facial expression, he was very upset. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and spat it on the grass.

David Navarro is notorious in La Liga and even in Europe. He was keenly aware that Cristiano Ronaldo was a little too emotional, so he grinned and had a trick in his mind.

※※※

Sixty minutes into the game, the score was still 0:0.

"There is still half an hour of regular time for Levante vs. Real Madrid at home. Barcelona and Atletico Madrid won the first game, and the points are eight points wide. If Real Madrid can't beat Levante, then they The distance from the top two in the league will be farther and farther, Cristiano Ronaldo and Don are the key to Real Madrid's away points, I really hope they can let go of their prejudices on the field as soon as possible."

Spanish TV five commentator Garcia said worriedly.

However, as soon as the words fell, Carvajal completed a quick cross from the right. The football was cleared by central defender Rodas in the front point. The camera flicked and the referee Burgos also walked back.

At this time, Cristiano Ronaldo suddenly fell to the ground, seeing the referee's whistle and the assistant referee were unmoved.

He 'jumped' angrily, covering his left brow bone with his left hand, and he seemed to see a trace of blood flowing out between his fingers, and then rushed towards the perpetrator, David Navarro.

David Navarro ran forward as if nothing had happened, but he was actually paying attention to Cristiano Ronaldo's movements.

So the corners of his mouth raised slightly, showing a victorious smile, waiting for Cristiano Ronaldo's "revenge".

Just when Cristiano Ronaldo was halfway pushing towards David Navarro angrily, an 'uninvited guest' suddenly appeared next to him.

Tang Zheng pushed Cristiano Ronaldo away from the side, then put his hands behind his back, turned around and pressed his chest against David Navarro, and asked loudly, the foam of saliva splashed on David Navarro's face: "Everyone They are all adults, can they decide the winner in an open and aboveboard manner? Didn't your parents teach you what is called basic quality?"

Cristiano Ronaldo, who was suddenly pushed away by Tang Zheng, was obviously angry, but when he saw Tang Zheng loudly questioning David Navarro, he woke up instantly, and suddenly realized that he almost hit David Navarro the trap.

David Navarro's brain was still interpreting the scene of Cristiano Ronaldo being sent off after two yellows and one red, but when Tang Zheng appeared as an unexpected guest, he was very upset, especially when Tang Zheng's mouth foamed all over the place afterwards, his brain became uncomfortable. controlled.

David Navarro, who was bluffed by Tang Zheng and took two steps back, paused, opened his arms naturally to maintain his balance, and then pushed his head out.

This time it was Tang Zheng's turn to raise the corners of his mouth slightly, and his body followed the direction of David Navarro's force and naturally fell backwards exaggeratedly covering his forehead.

Tang Zheng pushed Cristiano Ronaldo away very quickly, the referee Burgos saw it out of the corner of his eye, so he turned his head and saw Tang Zheng ran to David Navarro and roared angrily, then shouted loudly. David Navarro raised his forehead...

Immediately afterwards, the emotions of the players on both sides changed significantly, and they quickly ran to the scene of the incident, fearing that their teammates would be bullied by the other side.

The referee Burgos is not particularly experienced in law enforcement, but he is extremely decisive on the spot. He quickly blew his whistle, ran to David Navarro and directly showed a red card.

The second assistant referee also reacted quickly and entered the field.

The Levante players saw that the referee Burgos directly gave David Navarro a red card, and they were immediately puzzled. Discuss.

The referee Burgos looked calm, shook his head with a smile on his face, and looked at the Levante players who kept talking.

Seeing the referee's reaction, the Levante players also realized that the penalty cannot be changed, and dispersed one after another.

The fans at the scene didn't care, they booed hysterically and sent it to the referee: "Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo"

When the Levante players were completely dispersed, the referee Burgos took out two more cards from his trouser pocket, walked up to Tang Zheng who was being examined by the team doctor, showed a yellow card, and then showed a red card.

"Oh-my-god!" British Sky commentator Andy Gray said in surprise: "Don was also sent off with a red card."
