Starting from playing as a defensive midfielder for Real Madrid

During the halftime break, Li Ang was very happy, so happy that his teammates and Mourinho looked at the smiles on his faces and their mood improved a lot.

However, they all thought that Li Ang was happy that he had obtained another assist data, but they did not think of other aspects.

At this moment, Real Madrid has taken a 3-1 lead against Espanyol at home.

The three goals reflected strength, and the goal scored reflected emotional intelligence.

In the offensive game, everyone should just "try their best" anyway. This is true for offense and the same is true for defense.

The fans are happy to watch, and they are also happy to play.

To be honest, it is really unnecessary for Real Madrid to beat Espanyol 5-0 or 6-0 with a fierce attack.

Mourinho also made substitutions before the start of the second half.

The big core Alonso went down to rest first, and Essien came up to take a stroll. It is completely fine to play a 45-minute sweep of the midfield as it is still used sparingly.

As for Alonso, the responsibility of holding back the organization will naturally be handed over to Li Ang.

Callejon also came off the field early. After receiving an assist, he completed his tactical task today very well. Kaka came on to play as an attacking midfielder, while Di Maria returned to his old position.

Cristiano Ronaldo scored another hat-trick just one goal away. Mourinho would not replace him at this time, leaving him on the court to look for opportunities to wear hat-tricks.

After making these adjustments, Real Madrid played more patiently in the second half of the game, and the offensive rhythm was also more relaxed.

Di Maria, Kaka in the frontcourt, Li Ang and Ramos in the midfield and backfield are all looking for Ronaldo intentionally.

As long as Ronaldo has space or has a tendency to move forward, several people will give it to him immediately.

At this time, don’t talk about the idea that the value of scoring goals is too low.

When Barcelona played Valencia before, after Messi scored two goals in the first half, didn't the entire Barcelona team work hard to create opportunities for Messi to shoot in the second half?

There would be something really wrong if the top player didn't try his best to help him score the third goal when he had a chance to be a hat-trick.

When Mourinho sees victory in the game in sight, he doesn't mind using more tactical resources to help his own offensive core.

So Ronaldo naturally scored his third goal of the game in the 68th minute of the second half.

Didn't even wait until seventy minutes later.

I still have to thank the Spaniards who are not timid.

Their radical play gave Li Ang the opportunity to launch a long pass to find Kaká behind the Spanish defense.

And Kaka also successfully passed Ronaldo's cross to help Ronaldo score for the first time in a long time.

The scene of the two embracing each other passionately made countless female fans scream and exclaim.

At this time, looking at the midfield and backfield, when they saw the scene of Li Ang and Buffalo Essien embracing, the smiles on the faces of these female fans suddenly froze.

Facts have proved that not all CP female fans can tolerate it.

The "Lion and Ox" duo that male fans talk about so much is regarded by female fans as complete "heresies" who cannot be in the same frame.

However, Li Ang really likes the feeling of playing with Essien.

Just like the tacit cooperation with Brother Long, I feel at ease.

If you were to change your face now, Li Ang would not be smiling so happily.

Cough. It sounds a little unpleasant to say this, but it is indeed true.

In the end, Real Madrid ended the 26th round of La Liga match with Espanyol at home with a score of 5-2.

The game process is indeed "good to watch", at least the number of goals is enough, and fans from all walks of life can enjoy watching it.

Spaniard fans also feel that this is enough.

Being able to score two goals for Real Madrid at the Bernabeu, what else is there to say?

Quite worth it!

Everyone on both sides, from coaches to players to fans, is basically happy.

After the end of this round of league games, the second round of the Champions League knockout rounds reignited again.

But this time, CSKA Moscow did not have the freezing weather as their protective shield.

Under the spring sunshine in Madrid, the Russian Super League giants were tightly controlled by Real Madrid's half-main and half-rotation lineup.

The rhythm of this game was controlled by Real Madrid from the beginning, from beginning to end.

Li Ang, Essien and Alonso who were in better shape also once again locked up CSKA's midfield.

Zagoev did not dare to get too emotional in this game and played quite reasonably.

But under the pressure of Real Madrid's strong midfield and frontcourt, neither he nor Keisuke Honda could find a good way to break the game.

If you can't get through the midfield, you can't get control, you can't change the rhythm, it's really a place where you can't resist even if you want to.

In addition, CSKA was unwilling to directly set up the bus. As a result, Real Madrid forced them to play for 45 minutes in the first half and conceded two more goals.

Cristiano Ronaldo and Ramos made contributions in set kicks, and the total score reached 4-0.

The Russian Super League giants were completely kicked out of their fighting spirit.

Except for the face-saving goal scored by Zagoev to assist Tosic in the 76th minute of the second half, CSKA made no achievements on the offensive end.

The final score of this game was fixed at 4-1.

6-1 in two rounds, Real Madrid successfully entered the quarterfinals of this season's Champions League.

There are only two games left in the next round from the semi-finals, the minimum goal of the Champions League that Li Ang joked to the media at the beginning of the season.

With Ronaldo's brace in this game, he increased his number of goals in the Champions League this season to ten.

He currently tops the Champions League scorer list, followed by Messi with seven goals.

Even though the second round knockout match between Barcelona and Leverkusen has not yet started, Messi's data has not yet been finalized in this round.

But most fans also believe that before the quarter-finals, Messi should not be able to overtake Ronaldo and become the top scorer.

Ronaldo himself thinks so too. After all, it is very difficult to score a hat trick in the Champions League knockout rounds.

As for scoring four goals to overtake him?

That is a small probability event among small probability. Cristiano Ronaldo does not believe that Messi can score four goals in this knockout round.

Ronaldo, who returned to the league in a good mood, showed no sign of fatigue.

On the evening of March 11, Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice again in the match against Real Betis, helping Real Madrid defeat this mid-table La Liga powerhouse 4-2 in an away game.

After being held to a tenacious draw by Racing Santander, Real Madrid once again had a winning streak and continued to maintain its league suppression against Barcelona.

But it has to be said that as we enter the second half of the league, Real Madrid has fewer and fewer clean sheets.

Among them is the reason why Mourinho still spares the use of Essien.

There is also a reason why Alonso's defensive status declined to a certain extent in the second half of the league.

After all, Brother Long is getting older, and he has to ensure organizational stability.

In terms of physical distribution, Brother Long naturally can only ensure the state of organizing the offense first, and then use his remaining energy to help Li Ang with defense.

When Khedira and Di Maria played in the midfield, they did not have as much support as Essien on the defensive end.

For example, this round of the league.

Di Maria played as a midfielder in half the game and scored a goal. Brother Face came up in the second half and played as a midfielder in the half and contributed an assist.

Both of them performed well on the offensive end, but were they effective defensively?

It can only be said that the attitude is there, but Li Ang basically still has to do the dirty work alone.

In games like this where Li Ang mainly relies on making up for mistakes, no matter how good Li Ang can run, it is impossible to cover everything from the first minute to the 90th minute.

Fortunately, after the intensity of the defensive end was reduced, Real Madrid only lost one ball occasionally, or two at most.

When the offensive firepower is still online and it is guaranteed that the mid-table team can score more than three goals, the risk of Real Madrid being upset is still very low.

Moreover, this slight decline in status is also viewed in the context of the overall process of the league.

This is an inevitable trend, and other strong teams will have similar problems.

Among them, Real Madrid's status has been relatively small.

At most, they were tied by the relegation team. Levante, who lost, was also fourth in La Liga at the time, so it was not a big upset.

It can only be said that Mourinho has his own choices, which will save Essien and give him an extra trump card when he sprints in the league or fights against strong opponents in the Champions League.

After the 27th round of La Liga, almost all La Liga fans are focusing on the Champions League.

During the two days of the Champions League knockout rounds last week, APOEL, Benfica, Real Madrid, and AC Milan advanced to the quarterfinals of the Champions League.

This week, the remaining eight teams continue to fight against each other, fighting hard for the last four top eight spots.

On the evening of March 13, two teams that attracted much attention, Inter Milan and Bayern Munich, took the lead.

Bayern played without any suspense, sweeping Basel 7-0 in the second round, showing their dominance.

Inter Milan was miserable, and Marseille stole an away goal.

So even though they finally defeated Marseille 2-1 at home, they were still eliminated.

Marseille, on the other hand, relied on the advantage of 1-0 at home in the first leg, 1-2 in the away game in the second leg, and one more away goal to advance into the Champions League quarterfinals.

On the evening of March 14, Barcelona and Messi made their debut with much anticipation.

Messi did not score three or four goals in the end.

Because he scored five goals in the battle against Leverkusen!

Collapse!

Leverkusen was defeated directly, and Barcelona declared their ambition for the Champions League this year with a bloody 7-1 victory.

Fans of Barcelona and Messi also started a new round of public opinion carnival.

It is as if after winning this Champions League game, all the record pressure they are currently facing no longer exists.

Messi brought his number of goals in the Champions League to 12 in one game, surpassing Cristiano Ronaldo by a strong margin, and once again the focus of discussion in world football was placed on him.

Li Ang had long been mentally prepared for this, and was not as shocked by this incident as other players and fans.

Regarding the explosive football public opinion, some fans ridiculed Messi for scoring goals. His attitude was the same as the last time when fans said that Ronaldo scored goals.

This statement is unnecessary.

After scoring five goals in the knockout round of the Champions League, do you really think that Leverkusen is an amateur team and the players have no shame?

If Leverkusen can't beat them, they can't beat them. Being dishonest is the original sin. Fans can criticize Leverkusen for being dishonest, and it's all justified.

But we can't say that people surrendered and let Messi score goals. That would be an insult to the professional ethics of Leverkusen players.

If you are overtaken in the top scorer list, you will be overtaken. The draw for the quarter-finals has not even started yet, so I am worried.

Just wait for Ronaldo to come back with another explosive comeback.

Li Ang thought so anyway, and he said the same to Ronaldo during the training on March 15.

Cristiano Ronaldo, who was originally in a bad mood, felt much more at ease when he saw that Li Ang was so confident in himself.

But Li Ang was not what he thought, he was more trying to comfort him.

Li Ang really believed that he could come back with a strong lead in the subsequent knockout rounds!

There won’t be any fans in future generations who don’t know about Cristiano Ronaldo’s counterattack in the Champions League knockout rounds in the 16-17 season, right?

You can search for details - Tieba, 16-17 Champions League, the mobile phone screen is not long enough, and Ronaldo cannot be seen in the scorer list.

Li Ang has already seen such an exciting counterattack, where is this now?

Don't panic, play slowly, and trust Ronaldo in the tough knockout stages and it will be over, he will cheat!

Bayern, Marseille, Barcelona, ​​and Chelsea, which completed a comeback against Naples, formed the final eight of this season's Champions League with the four teams that had successfully broken through before.

On March 16, the draw ceremony for the 2011-2012 Champions League quarter-finals was held in Nyon, Switzerland.

This draw will not only draw each team's quarterfinal opponents, but also divide the upper and lower halves.

One draw can let each giant know the approximate opponents of the subsequent semi-finals and even the final, which is quite exciting.

Not only the fans were paying close attention, but the players from each team basically arrived at the training base on time to watch the lottery ceremony.

Among these players with different ideas, Huang Saren's players are obviously the most confident.

Among them, players from Real Madrid and Barcelona hope to be divided into the same half again.

Real Madrid wants to personally avenge last season, while Barcelona wants to defeat Real Madrid head-on again to consolidate and establish itself as the leader of La Liga and the strongest in Europe.

Bayern's players don't care.

After losing in the UEFA Champions League final in 2010, after a season and a half of accumulation, they have once again accumulated the confidence to charge for the Champions League title.

Whether Real Madrid or Barcelona, ​​if they want to win the Champions League, Bayern must have the determination and courage to confront these two teams head-on.

It's the same whether it's early or late, and the confident Bayern players also firmly believe that they will win the final victory.

However, when the players from the three teams were confident that they wanted to play against each other, UEFA executives used practical actions to dispel their thoughts.

In order to ensure ratings, how could UEFA allow the three favorites to win the championship this season to meet in advance when the eight teams advance to the fourth place?

After some "random" drawing of lots, Huang Saren's three teams happened to be staggered.

Real Madrid and Bayern went to the top half, and the two teams faced off against Marseille and APOEL respectively.

Barcelona and Chelsea went to the bottom half to face Benfica and AC Milan respectively.

Well, the two teams with the largest traffic, Huang Sa Ren, were divided into divisions first, and then the three Huang Sa Ren teams also won the "big gift package".

Coincidence, what a damn coincidence!

As soon as the quarter-final draw ceremony ended, only Chelsea VS Milan was a relatively even match.

The remaining three games were all dominated by the wealthy teams.

With such a coincidence, it is really difficult not to make fans from all walks of life laugh and complain.

However, in the past, fans of wealthy teams mocked their opponents for being "lucky" and "the godfather team".

After the lottery ceremony, there were not many large-scale appearances.

The football world instantly became a lot cleaner.

Li Ang smiled and teased his teammates immediately after the draw ceremony, saying that this time the fans of the major clubs would not argue anymore.

Everyone already has a big gift package, so why bother?

Don't make fun of anyone. When you reach the semi-finals, let's do it again with real swords and guns!
