Midfielder Ruler

In the 10th round of La Liga in the 2013-2014 season, the most interesting league is Barcelona's game against Real Madrid at the Nou Camp, and this game has become the most watched game in the world on that day.

An hour before the game, La Liga officially gave the starting eleven list of both sides.

Messi, Xavi, Iniesta, Tang Zheng, Cristiano Ronaldo, Benzema and other stars are all on the list, so it also gave the fans at the scene and the fans in front of the TV a huge desire to watch the game.

While watching games to support their favorite teams, fans also hope to see more famous stars.

Because, this can ensure the viewing of the game.

But the media who got Real Madrid's starting list were surprised. Ramos, who has always appeared in the position of Real Madrid's central defender, had the premise of being a double defensive midfielder with his partner Khedira. It can be described as an iron wall.

Barcelona head coach Martino, who got Real Madrid's starting roster, frowned. Before the game, he guessed that Real Madrid would put on a defensive stance when they were guests, but he didn't expect that the partner Khedira would not be Tang Zheng, but would switch to playing central defender. Ramos.

Ramos has a tough autumn style and has the title of desperate Saburo, and Khedira is even more so. Counting Tang Zheng, who is in the front midfielder, Martino realizes that it is very difficult for the team's offense to open the gap from the middle.

Martino looked at the starting list and shook his head, he knew Tang Zheng would not appear in the defensive midfielder, he should let Harvey play as a substitute instead of starting.

Harvey’s problem of being too old was exposed in the two rounds of the UEFA Champions League semi-finals last season. He, Harvey and Busquets’ midfield iron triangle were perfectly crushed by Tang Zheng, and then there was a 0:7 home and away defeat. Dortmund's situation arises.

Now that the starting list has been submitted to the official, it is unrealistic to change it, unless you are willing to use the three substitutions in the regular game.

Of course, this possibility is slim, unless Harvey is warmed up and injured.

Fortunately, there is still more than half an hour left for Martino. He can discuss countermeasures with his assistants while the players of both sides are warming up at the Nou Camp.

After all, this game is played at the Nou Camp, and the advantage of playing at home is very obvious.

Central 5 commentator He Wei sat in the spacious commentary seat of the Nou Camp, looking down at the starting lists of both sides, thoughtful.

Goalkeeper Diego Lopez, four defenders Marcelo, Pepe, Varane and Carvajal,

The double defensive midfielder Ramos partnered with Khedira, the three forwards were Isco, Tang Zheng and Di Maria, and Cristiano Ronaldo was at the front.

Real Madrid has three changes in the lineup in this game. Varane, who has returned from injury, will serve as the starting central defender. Ramos will play as a defensive midfielder. In the end, Benzema did not start, but was on the bench.

In the dressing room of the visiting team, Ancelotti studied Barcelona's starting list with his assistants Clemente and Zidane.

Compared with the lineup rotation made by Real Madrid, Barcelona's starting lineup can be said to have been well understood before the game.

The formation is the most commonly used four-three-three formation in recent seasons, goalkeeper Valdes, four defenders Alba, Mascherano, Pique and Alves, three midfielders Harvey, Iniesta and Brau Squets, the three forwards are Cesc Fabregas, Messi and Neymar.

Anyone who is familiar with Barcelona's tactical system knows that Guardiola's tactical system and Martino's tactical system do not have a real center forward. Whether it is Messi, Pedro, or Sanchez, they are all pseudo-center forwards. , Ghostly running to win space.

Barcelona's starting lineup and Ancelotti's coaching team guessed before the game that there is only one position change, that is, Fabregas with comprehensive capabilities replaces Pedro or Sanchez in the starting left winger.

However, the changes are also within the prediction range of Ancelotti's coaching team, so it is not difficult to prevent them.

※※※

The warm-up time, which lasted for nearly half an hour, was over, and the players from both sides of the game entered their respective locker rooms. Make final preparations for the next 167th La Liga national derby.

In the dressing room of the visiting team, Real Madrid's starting XI and the substitute players all looked serious, staring at coach Ancelotti intently.

Although Ancelotti has never been the kind of provocative coach, his personal charm is very strong, and the skills and tactics he explains will always make the players more serious, so as to achieve a multiplier effect of understanding.

Ancelotti's first Spanish national derby in his coaching career is no less important than leading AC Milan to the Champions League final three times.

Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo are the key to Real Madrid's away victory over Barcelona, ​​so before the game Ancelotti focused on what they should do in the game and how to do it.

Of course, Tang Zheng's task is the heaviest in the entire team. Not only does he have to assist his teammates in defense, but he also needs to be the first to attack.

He just finished participating in a fierce Champions League group match in the middle of the week, and three days later there will be a national derby. Physical fitness will be a huge test for Tang Zheng.

But Ancelotti wasn't worried about this. Tang Zheng in his impression had plenty of physical energy, and his physical energy distribution in the game was also quite reasonable, so he wouldn't waste his physical energy in vain.

On both offensive and defensive ends, Tang Zheng was the most reassuring link for Ancelotti.

As for Cristiano Ronaldo, he does not have many tasks, but the importance can be described as a team detachment.

Because the task Ancelotti entrusted to Cristiano Ronaldo is the key to Real Madrid's away win!

Score a goal!

And whether Cristiano Ronaldo can score a goal in the end depends on whether Tang Zheng's passing is in place during the transition from defense to offense.

Judging from the situation before the game, Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo's competitive state has been adjusted to the best, so Ancelotti is full of confidence in the next national derby.

After repeating the tactical core, Ancelotti looked at Tang Zheng: "Tang."

"Huh?" Tang Zheng looked up at Ancelotti with curiosity.

Ancelotti put his left hand in his pocket, walked up to Tang Zheng, and put it on his shoulder: "It's the first national derby, how does it feel?"

"Feel?" Tang Zheng was a little puzzled, but he reacted quickly, spreading his hands: "So far, I haven't felt anything special. If I have, it's excitement."

Having said that, Tang Zheng turned his head to look at Cristiano Ronaldo, and said with a smile: "Cristiano, do you think so?"

Cristiano Ronaldo grinned, and shook Tang Zheng's naturally outstretched right hand: "That's right! It's full of excitement."

Real Madrid coaches and players in the locker room looked at Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo who shook hands and shook their heads secretly.

In the past two months, it seemed that there was an unresolved hatred, but now it looks like a good friend who has not seen each other for many years.

At the same time, the atmosphere in the locker room of the home team was obviously tense.

Although Barcelona currently ranks first in the La Liga standings, their lead is not obvious, only one point ahead of Atletico Madrid and three points ahead of Real Madrid.

Leaving aside Atletico Madrid's home game against Real Betis, which is 15th in the league, if they lose to Real Madrid in this round, the difference between the two sides will become zero.

According to the same rules of La Liga points, Real Madrid, who temporarily occupy each other's record, will overtake the ranking.

Coach Martino has had an inconspicuous career, as has his coaching career, so he doesn't have much control over the team's locker room.

Fortunately, the league has won eight consecutive victories at the beginning of the league, making the team's superstars surrender temporarily.

If the national derby fails to win Real Madrid, the future coaching career in Barcelona will not be optimistic.

In view of the changes in Real Madrid's starting lineup, Martino made it simple: "Pay more attention to penetration in the middle, and must not force penetration in Don's coverage area. This is a huge pressure for us to switch from offense to defense. Clay Us, Sergio, you all pass the ball to the two sides as much as possible, of course...you can pass through if you have a chance..."

Mascherano, Pique and goalkeeper Valdez are supportive of coach Martino's orders, and they have the clearest understanding of Cristiano Ronaldo's ability.

Tang Zheng's performance in the UEFA Super Cup and UEFA Champions League also left them with deep memories, especially the two rounds of the UEFA Champions League semi-finals last season, it was unforgettable for a lifetime!

For such an opponent, keeping a respectful distance is the best choice.

I don't know how long it took, La Liga staff knocked on the locker rooms of both sides of the game to remind them that it was time to go to the player channel and prepare for the game.

※※※

When the players of both sides walked from the corner of the locker room of the home and away teams to the player tunnel one after another, the on-site director immediately switched to the player tunnel, so that the fans who turned on the TV in advance could see the mental outlook of the players for the first time.

Whether it is Real Madrid players or Barcelona players, their mental outlook is very good.

Most of the Chinese fans in front of the TV chose to pay attention to Tang Zheng, but the live director seemed to have a telepathy and gave Tang Zheng a close-up shot of his face.

Chinese fans sitting in front of the TV could clearly see Tang Zheng wearing the No. An attitude towards the game.

In other words, it is a kind of confidence.

Of course, the on-site director did not give Tang Zheng close-up shots for too long. After all, the Spanish national derby has always been star-studded. Players like Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Xavi, Iniesta, Pique, Ramos and other players are well-received by fans all over the world. focus on.

I don't know if it was intentional, but the on-site director gave Messi and Tang Zheng a close-up shot of their backs.

Thus, two ten numbers appeared on the TV screen.

If there are fans who pay special attention, they will definitely remember that in the two rounds of the UEFA Champions League semi-finals last season, the live directors at the Camp Nou Stadium and the Westfalen Stadium also gave a close-up shot of Tang Zheng and Messi's back.

But at that time Tang Zheng was the number one star in Dortmund, and Messi was the number one star in Barcelona. Now Tang Zheng can be regarded as a superstar in Real Madrid, but he is definitely not the number one star. Therefore, the close-up shot of the back is at best a reminder to the fans in front of the TV to decide the match. The player of the game trend will be between Tang Zheng and Messi.

In the past, Barcelona's performance against Dortmund in the European competition was extremely unsatisfactory, which was directly related to Tang Zheng's excellent performance and Messi's sluggish performance.

So in the fifth battle between the two, which No. 10 performed better would have a higher chance of winning.

Tang Zheng stood at the second place in the team, behind the captain Ramos on the field.

Messi, as Barcelona's number one star, stood at the bottom of the line as a matter of course, but he did not pay attention to Cristiano Ronaldo, who was standing at the bottom of the Real Madrid line, but looked towards his own one o'clock direction.

Real Madrid No. 10!

Tang Zheng!

Since Messi became famous in his career, he has not lost to anyone, except Tang Zheng.

Reminiscent of the relevant remarks made by the good media in the past, he naturally clenched his fists and pursed his mouth.

In this national derby, Messi hopes to lead Barcelona to defeat Tang Zheng Real Madrid, to justify his name!

At this moment, a close-up shot of the on-site director was shown to the referee team of the game, and then the referee Marienko was seen walking into the field with a football.

Following the footsteps of the referee team, the two teams lined up and led the little caddy with their right hands to slowly walk towards the court.

"Aww-"

The noisy Camp Nou suddenly burst into deafening loud cheers, and the fans in the stands cheered and cheered for the team they supported.

Immediately afterwards, the home fans raised their voices again and sang the Barcelona team song "Himne-Del-Fc-Barcelona".

Due to the large number of singing fans, the Camp Nou stadium with a capacity of nearly 100,000 fans is like a huge sound system, and the sound effect released is extremely powerful.

After the necessary links before the game, the captains of both sides went to the referee Marienko.

At the same time, Barcelona fans at the Nou Camp held up a mosaic board prepared in advance.

Directly opposite the main stand is the barcelona club's traditional red and blue mosaic boards as the background, and then the yellow mosaic boards form the ten letters "FORCR-TITOI".

The two stands in the north and south are the Catalan regional flag composed of red and yellow mosaic boards. The home fans express their desire for independence in this way.

...

Not long after, the referee Marienko blew his whistle, and Cristiano Ronaldo handed the football to Isco.

"Whooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-"

There were deafening boos immediately above the Camp Nou, and the home fans hoped to have such an extreme way to influence the Real Madrid players who had the kick-off advantage.

But in many cases, the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment.

Except for Isco, Tang Zheng and Carvajal who participated in the Spanish national derby for the first time, the other players in the Real Madrid team have rich experience in the Spanish national derby, so they can ignore the huge boos that erupted at the Nou Camp.

Central 5 commentator He Wei is still introducing the starting lineups of both sides, and Tang Zheng has already received the football from Isco.

Facing the menacing Neymar and Messi, Tang Zheng stepped on the football with his right foot, looking very calm.

Both Messi and Neymar were very explosive, one left and one right rushed towards Tang Zheng.

In the broadcast screen, Tang Zheng's mouth was raised slightly, the sole of his right foot pulled the ball to the left, and the instep of his left foot quickly joined the movement. Using the time difference, he dunked the ball to the space that Messi and Neymar only saw, and started on the spot, forming a breakthrough.

"Pretty!" Central 5 commentator He Wei hurriedly suspended the report on the starting list, and changed his voice: "Fried meatballs."
