Starting from playing as a defensive midfielder for Real Madrid

Isco was speechless by another truthful joke from Leon.

Although he felt a little unhappy, he really couldn't find any reason to refute.

Look at Real Madrid today, it is no longer like the rising sun, but hanging high above La Liga like a noon sun!

And Barcelona, ​​which is about to lose Guardiola, doesn't know who the next new coach will be, and doesn't know if there is any internal strife in the team, is like the sunset.

Naturally, it is possible for the sunset to rise again, but it is hard to say how long this process will take and what Real Madrid's strength will be by then.

The golden peak period of professional players is only a few years, and no one dares to bet on transfer easily.

If he hadn't played out such a name before, even if the sinking Barcelona called Isco, he would still be willing to go there firmly.

But he has now kicked out.

Even though he couldn't compete with Gotze for this year's European Golden Boy Award, he is still the national golden boy in the eyes of Spanish fans.

Now he has no shortage of clubs to pursue.

Barcelona at this time, no matter how you look at it, is not a good place for leveling.

Moreover, if Real Madrid really makes an offer to Málaga in the summer window next year, can he resist joining the most powerful and powerful team in Europe?

Is his determination to join Barcelona really as firm as he expected?

My mind seemed to be spinning into a ball of yarn.

In the end, Li Ang saw that Isco was too distracted and slapped him awake.

"Hey little lion, you've done me a disservice."

Finally, Isco, who was rubbing the back of his head, sighed and trotted back to his own half, leaving Li Ang standing there in a circle.

However, as the game restarted, neither Isco nor Li Ang took what happened just now to heart.

They all quickly fell back into each other's tactical roles.

Real Madrid, who scored a goal, began to deliberately slow down the pace of the game under the organizational control of Li Ang and Modric.

This made it difficult for Malaga, who was eager to score an equalizer.

One side wants to slow down, while the other wants to speed up. This completely opposite tactical thinking destined the two teams to fight fiercely.

But again, when Real Madrid wants to compete for the ball, in La Liga, or in Europe, only Barcelona can compete with Real Madrid in this regard.

Malaga are good, but they are not Real Madrid's rivals in the fight for the ball.

So after some deliberate sabotage and fragmentation of the game process, Real Madrid got what they wanted and dragged the 1-0 score to the end of the half.

Mourinho was quite satisfied with the result of the first half.

Especially in terms of the stable performance of midfield defense, Modric's active integration and Matuidi's outstanding performance made him nod while watching the game from the coaching bench.

This is actually a question of defensive attitude.

Matuidi has this defensive ability, Modric is slightly worse in this regard, but both of them have a positive attitude and can relax.

Then Mourinho likes this attitude very much.

As for Li Ang, Mourinho is not going to praise him today. He has praised him so many times before that he is tired of it, and Li Ang is probably tired of hearing it too.

Besides, there is no need for them to maintain their relationship like this now.

With one look from Mourinho, Li Ang probably knew whether he was praising or scolding himself.

In addition to not directly calling Mourinho "Dad" like Essien did, Li Ang doesn't feel that the relationship between himself and Mourinho is any different from the relationship between Essien and Mourinho back then.

I know that you trust me unconditionally, and you also know that I will stand by your side unconditionally, and that's enough.

During the halftime break, Mourinho laid out the tactics for the second half in the locker room.

After seeing Li Ang nodding as always to indicate that he understood the tactical intention, Mourinho also felt relieved and handed over the final emphasis to Karanka.

At the beginning of the second half, Li Ang and Modric connected with each other in their own half to pass the ball.

Real Madrid doesn't have any technical players in the backcourt, and the seemingly rough Essien's short passes are quite stable.

Malaga fought for five or six minutes at the beginning, but failed to steal the ball from the feet of the Real Madrid players.

Director Zhang Luzhang, who was partnering with He Wei to commentate on the game today, also started teasing.

"It seems that Real Madrid has learned a lot of tactics from their arch-enemy Barcelona. This kind of play that gives priority to controlling the ball in its own half after taking the lead has been something we haven't seen in the past few years~"

Director Zhang's words shocked He Wei.

He Wei didn't know if Director Zhang really didn't know about the big news in Barcelona these two days, or if he knew about it, he had nothing to worry about.

He didn't have the seniority of Director Zhang, so naturally he didn't dare to talk about this topic too much, so he quickly found another conversation topic to divert the conversation.

Fortunately, Director Zhang did not continue to talk about Barcelona, ​​and the Chinese fans who heard the nervousness in He Wei's commentary were very happy.

If this is postponed to 2023, fans and friends in forums and post bars will definitely start to use "protection".

There aren't that many memes on the Internet these days, but domestic fans also made fun of He Wei's caution on the forum.

Real Madrid's game went well, and the domestic fans were in a pretty good mood.

And in the 67th minute of the second half, when Li Ang made his first forward thrust in the game and suddenly sent an oblique through ball, assisting Ronaldo to successfully score Real Madrid's second goal of the game.

The major domestic sports forums are celebrating again!

After playing in the Club World Cup and returning to La Liga, he played another key performance. Li Ang is worthy of praise. If you praise him, he can really perform better!

In the last round of La Liga before the Christmas holiday, Real Madrid finally defeated Málaga 2-0 away from home.

So far, in the first seventeen rounds of La Liga, Real Madrid has one less game due to the Club World Cup schedule, and ranks second in La Liga with 46 points with fifteen wins and one draw.

Barcelona's record is even more exaggerated, with sixteen wins and one draw in the first seventeen rounds! Currently ranked first in La Liga with 49 points!

Yes, even though there was a big disturbance before the Christmas holiday, Guardiola still led the team to a steady away victory.

Like Real Madrid, Barcelona also defeated their current opponent Valladolid 2-0.

Messi, who scored two goals in the game, sadly bid farewell to his mentor Guardiola.

The celebration scene of the two lovingly hugging each other for the last time during the game was reproduced by countless media and fans after the game.

Guardiola still couldn't hold it back and burst into tears at the post-match press conference.

After the Real Madrid game ended, Mourinho also wished his old friend Guardiola all the best for the future at the post-match press conference.

At this moment, in Mourinho's eyes, the reporters truly saw regret and sadness.

And everyone knows that Mourinho is not feeling sorry for Barcelona.

He was just complaining for his friend.

In the past, fans who were more willing to believe that Mourinho and Guardiola had already fallen out would be speechless now.

This is La Liga.

There is no more Gua Mu Xiang to see.

※※※

The incident of Guardiola leaving the team, which has been hotly debated for several days, has gradually cooled down with the start of the Christmas holiday.

In football, discussions about Guardiola's next club and Barcelona's future results are naturally still fermenting.

But in life, fans from all walks of life who disliked each other in the past meet again on the Internet, and they will subconsciously say a few friendly greetings to each other.

Another year of Christmas is coming.

For Li Ang, this Christmas was quite fulfilling this year.

The club has many activities, and in addition to team dinners, he and his teammates also participated in many community charity activities.

After seeing the many innocent children in children's hospitals and welfare homes, Li Ang's mind showed more faces of poor children in various provinces of his motherland.

This is not an unfounded conjecture in Li Ang's mind.

But through the faces of these Spanish children, the memory of attending a simple kindergarten and elementary school in the countryside emerged clearly in his mind.

When he was in the third grade of elementary school, he went to the town with his parents to settle and study.

But in his hometown, an industrial town that was not considered poor at all.

In the vast rural areas, there were still a large number of left-behind children whose families were still at the level where they could afford to attend rural primary schools.

In the midst of this, there are still a large number of families who choose not to allow their children to continue their education because they cannot afford to pay tens or hundreds of yuan for books and miscellaneous fees.

The reason why Li Ang's impression and memory are still so profound is because he has indeed experienced it all.

It was still the beginning of the century, and now the first decade of the century has completely passed.

Li Ang believes that with the accelerated construction of the motherland and the poverty alleviation efforts in the past decade, many children have escaped the fate of illiteracy.

But the motherland is really too big.

In that familiar land, there are thousands of towns and villages even poorer than my own hometown.

And in these thousands of villages and towns, what a huge number of children are still suffering due to poverty?

For the second time he lost sleep late at night in Spain.

The first time he suffered from insomnia was when he came to Spain. At that time, he was facing the unknown tomorrow with great longing and expectation.

But now, he is tossing and turning for a group of children who have nothing to do with him.

The next day, after Spain commissioned a team of assistants to set up a children's rescue foundation, Li Ang called Mendes directly and expressed his demands.

He established a special charity foundation in China last year.

However, the annual investment of one million euros set at that time seems to be too little now.

This can’t build a few schools, nor can it cover a few cities.

His income is very high now, really high.

One million euros, equivalent to RMB, should be over eight million at the moment.

As for this money, he only needed to sign a one-year endorsement contract with a domestic medium-sized company to fully earn it back.

Mendes has previously estimated that Leon's income in 2012 will be around 40 million euros.

Note that this is after-tax income.

And this is still under the current situation where the Mendes team strictly controls Li Ang's domestic endorsements.

If it is open to the outside world, it will not be a problem for Li Ang's income to double this year.

So when Li Ang proposed that he would spend at least 10 million euros a year to build Hope Primary Schools in various provinces in the country, Mendes was surprised, but he had no intention of persuading Li Ang not to spend such money.

Ten million euros is a lot, but it depends on who it is for.

After getting used to seeing wealthy bosses from all walks of life in China spending money to seek cooperation, Mendes's horizons have also broadened a lot.

He is confident that he can increase Li Ang's annual income to over 100 million euros in the next two years!

As long as Li Ang maintains his current performance level and does not suffer major injuries, achieving such a goal is a sure thing.

By that time, let alone 10 million euros a year, even if Li Ang uses 20 million euros a year for charity, Mendes will not blink an eyelid.

Besides, this kind of charitable act is also a completely good thing for Li Ang's career development!

Not to mention deliberately promoting it, as long as it is done seriously, it will arouse a huge upsurge of public opinion among the people and the government in China.

In Mendes' view, exchanging this 10 million euros per year for Leon's higher domestic reputation is a sure-fire deal.

Of course, he just thought about it in his heart, and he would definitely not say this to Li Ang.

After praising Li Ang, Mendes personally led his team to book air tickets and rush to China.

He wants to promote the reorganization and establishment of the New Hope Fund in the short term and select a trustworthy financial team and management team.

I don’t blame him for thinking too much, the main reason is that China is so big that there are people for everyone.

When he helped Li Ang negotiate business cooperation in China before, he also encountered some people who wanted to take advantage of him for no apparent reason. He understood this.

After all, this money can only be truly realized under clear supervision and the operation of a reliable team.

Li Ang felt relieved after receiving Mendes' plan.

Currently, he has to seize the time for special training in Spain, and he can only wait until this summer offseason to return to China.

So Mendes went to do it himself, and he felt grateful and at ease.

After temporarily letting go of his worries, Li Ang also took advantage of his daily vacation time and began to work hard to break through his long-pass ability.

Although this year's Christmas holiday was a bit shorter because Real Madrid had to play a Copa del Rey make-up match in advance, Li Ang ultimately failed to successfully break through the 85 long pass ability threshold during the holiday.

But he felt that it was almost the same.

On January 4, Real Madrid's rotation players rushed to Celta Vigo to play the first round of the Copa del Rey quarter-finals at home.

Li Ang came on as a substitute in the second half of the game and played for 36 minutes.

But Real Madrid eventually lost 1-2 to Celta Vigo and ushered in their first defeat of the season.

However, Real Madrid is quite satisfied with this score.

After all, the main players got a more complete rest, and Real Madrid finally scored an away goal at Celta Vigo's home court.

After the game, Mourinho gave most of the rotation players a holiday and let them rest for two more days.

On January 6, Real Madrid, with all its main players participating in the 18th round of La Liga, welcomed Real Sociedad at the Bernabeu.

Real Sociedad is currently ranked seventh in La Liga, three points away from fifth-placed Real Betis. It is a critical moment when morale is high and they want to enter the European theater.

Because they were eliminated in the fourth round of the Copa del Rey before, Real Sociedad currently has no multi-line combat tasks and has just gone through the Christmas holiday.

Therefore, their morale and physical fitness can be said to be at their peak, which caused Real Madrid huge game problems at the Bernabeu.

It's actually okay if they play normally. After all, Real Madrid's main players have only gone through a two-week rest and there are currently no injury problems.

But today, Real Sociedad's No. 10 midfielder Xavi Prieto exploded. He scored two consecutive long-range shots in the first half and scored Real Madrid's goal!

Griezmann didn't perform much in the first half. Today he was locked in by Li Ang again, but his passing organization gave Prieto more opportunities to fire.

Real Madrid was still trailing Real Sociedad 1-2 in the first half. This scene simply shocked the attention of many La Liga fans!

However, at the beginning of the second half, Ronaldo, who was stimulated by Mourinho's chicken blood, also cooperated with Marcelo to directly destroy Real Sociedad's right defense!

Prieto, who had previously exploded, had to retreat first to help Estrada consolidate the wing defense.

At this time, Higuain, who replaced Benzema at halftime, showed his shooting instinct.

After Cristiano Ronaldo contained a large number of Real Sociedad's defensive forces, Higuain successfully poached and scored with a volley from Marcelo's low cross!

But the most exciting plot is yet to come.

Just when Real Madrid was about to go ahead and overtake the score, Griezmann used Prieto to hold the ball and took away the gap in Li Ang's defense. After receiving the ball from outside the Real Madrid penalty area, he directly adjusted his position and shot!

This shot was far from the top of the penalty area. Brother Long didn't expect Griezmann to be so bold.

And Casillas once again suffered a disadvantage in terms of wingspan. Facing Griezmann's left-footed shot from a blind corner, he failed to catch the ball!

In the 57th minute of the second half, Real Sociedad once again overtook the score in the third minute after Real Madrid equalized!

This situation is really explosive.

Real Madrid was scored three goals by their opponents at the Bernabeu, which was the first time this season!

At least two of the goals were magic shots from long range, and one was a volley from Prieto in front of the penalty area that hit Pepe on the butt and was refracted, causing Real Madrid to lose the ball!

No one was lucky, and the Real Madrid fans at the scene were covering their heads, not knowing who to boo.

If you are so unlucky today, you can't blame your own players, right?

Fortunately, at such a morale-damaging moment, Mourinho did not hesitate too much and chose the tactical adjustment that would best boost morale and the confidence of the players.

"Press up! Li Ang and Harvey also press up! Attack! Attack until the last second of the game!!!"

Mourinho's roar on the sidelines ignited the blood and anger in the hearts of all Real Madrid players!

attack!

An attack that will never retreat even if Real Sociedad scores another goal!

They want to attack to the end!

They want to defeat this bad luck with a strong victory!

So the players of Real Sociedad had to face the full pressure of Real Madrid in fear after only a few minutes of partying!

The offensive like a wave is pressing in front of the gate of Real Sociedad's penalty area, constantly beating their defense!

When Real Sociedad had no choice but to stick to the defensive third zone, Real Madrid no longer played complicated offensive routines.

Cristiano Ronaldo, Li Ang, and Essien on the outside took turns taking long shots when they saw the opportunity!

Marcelo and Arbeloa on both sides have almost become wingers, frequently hitting the bottom and sending crosses into the Real Sociedad penalty area!

Li Ang's late insertion also gave Cristiano Ronaldo and Higuain more opportunities to grab points.

Of course, Real Sociedad also made several good counterattacks during the period. Griezmann and Carlos Vela made Pepe and Ramos each receive a yellow card in just fifteen minutes.

But Real Madrid still doesn't care, and Real Madrid's offensive continues!

Mourinho replaced Pepe with Nacho in the 76th minute of the second half.

The faster and more agile Nacho and Ramos are now better candidates to deal with Griezmann and Vela's counterattacks.

Varane also started warming up.

Mourinho is determined not to withdraw Leon and Alonso.

If Nacho receives another yellow card, there will be no commentator or fans will doubt Mourinho's determination to replace Ramos with Varane!

This decisive give-and-take overwhelmed Real Sociedad's defense.

Finally, in the 82nd minute of the second half, Di Maria received a cross pass from Essien and then faked a shot and dunked the ball past Real Sociedad's midfielder Surutusa.

When he broke into the Real Sociedad penalty area and was about to shoot, Inigo Martinez had no choice but to try to intercept.

Di Maria had a flash of inspiration at the critical moment and once again changed the shot into a dunk, passing Martinez's defense!

Faced with goalkeeper Bravo's attack, the Angel chose to flick the football behind the goal!

Cristiano Ronaldo, who arrived at the scene, jumped high, overpowered Real Sociedad's right center back Gonzalez and pushed the football into the empty goal!

3-3!

Real Madrid finally equalized the score in the last ten minutes!

The Real Madrid fans at the Bernabeu celebrated like crazy and roared with the players on the field!

However, the Real Madrid players did not celebrate for long.

Ronaldo was waving his arms and roaring to ask the Real Madrid fans in the audience to give them more support!

Ramos applauded his teammates in the backcourt to stay calm!

As for Li Ang, he rushed into the Real Sociedad goal the moment the football crossed the line, held the ball and punched the ball and ran towards the kick-off point!

Real Madrid haven't scored enough yet!

Real Madrid will not accept a draw!

Real Madrid still wants the final victory!

This soaring unity and strong fighting spirit shocked all the audience!

This well-rested Real Madrid has not slacked off mentally, but seems to be more paranoid and tenacious!

Because now they even want to win with luck!

How confident and domineering is this? !

Mourinho squeezed his hands and made his last-minute tactical decision.

He threw his left hand behind him with sudden force and swung it with all his strength in the direction of the Royal Sociedad half court! ! !

At the same time, his roaring and passionate speech was also thrown out!

"Keep attacking!!!"

crazy!

The fans at the Bernabeu shouted at the top of their lungs!

Swept by a sound like a volcanic eruption, Real Madrid's players went completely crazy! ! !

Speed, speed, speed!

They are racing against time to speed up, and they are still increasing the number of attacking rounds!

Movistar's commentators and special guests were shouting at the top of their lungs!

Griezmann actually wanted to fight another Real Madrid counterattack at this moment.

As long as he makes another threatening counterattack and breaks through Real Madrid's door, he can become the sole focus of this game!

He will get the best chance to make a name for himself!

But he couldn't run now.

I really couldn't run anymore, my legs felt as heavy as lead.

So he couldn't understand it even more.

Why can these big stars from Real Madrid still run like this!

Pintus, like Karanka, could no longer sit still. He stood on the sidelines, very satisfied with the physical transformation he had brought to the current Real Madrid team.

But he wants to see Real Madrid win today!

"Use this physical advantage to defeat your opponents, boys!"

Pintus nervously held Karanka's shoulders and muttered silently in his mind.

The time has now reached the 88th minute of the second half.

Real Sociedad's defense has long been in a precarious state.

But they held on.

Bravo, who no longer attacks at will, used his excellent goal-line performance to reject Real Madrid's rapid impact shots again and again!

Ramos has already rushed forward!

Alonso retreated accordingly.

Li Ang took the ball on the right side of his own half of the field. He suddenly started to rush forward and once again used his physical advantage to break through Sulutusa's marker!

This sudden change inevitably caused chaos in Real Sociedad's left defense!

Li Ang did not slow down and continued to rush forward, forcing Real Sociedad's left-back De La Beria to intercept, and then gave the ball to Arbeloa who was on the edge of the ball!

After scoring the ball, Li Ang still did not slow down. He just changed direction and rushed towards the Real Sociedad penalty area at almost the same time as Ramos!

Ramos resolutely pushed forward, Ronaldo started from the back, and Liang and Higuain went straight into the middle!

Arbeloa's cross came.

A quick cross with a slight twist!

When Ramos jumped high at the front point, Bravo moved ahead.

All the Real Madrid fans at the scene also held their breath nervously!

Mourinho squatted down slightly and stared at Ramos' figure closely.

But in the end, the football flew past Ramos' head!

A huge sense of gap immediately filled the hearts of all Real Madrid fans!

But this sense of gap lasted less than 0.5 seconds, because they saw two forward figures jumping almost simultaneously in the middle of the penalty area!

Li Ang is in front and Higuain is behind.

Two ghosts knock on the door!

Real Sociedad's goalkeeper Inigo Martinez followed suit.

But his positioning speed is too slow!

Li Ang "dumped" himself out again!

His take-off height and summit momentum frightened Bravo, who was still moving in the opposite direction!

When Li Ang exerted force downwards and completed a "dunk" style header, Martinez was also knocked off balance by his powerful impact!

The football quickly bounced to the turf in the far corner of the goal, and then bounced into the net!

And Bravo's interception hand couldn't catch up until the football completely crossed the line!

too late! ! !

"Ramos is on top! Li Ang is on the top!!! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhingingating! Unbelievable! Real Madrid's unlucky victory at the last minute! All the players hope! This is Real Madrid!"

In the boiling and shaking Bernabeu Stadium, Li Ang climbed up and stood up from Martinez, then took off his jersey and started running wildly! ! !

All Real Madrid players!

Not only the players on the field, but also the Real Madrid players on the bench, all rushed out and ran towards the area where Li Ang was!

Mourinho is older and naturally cannot run as fast as young players, but his running figure is equally passionate and determined!

Li Ang was knocked down from behind by his teammates, and they all hugged each other and fell to the ground with a roar!

But the players of Real Sociedad were all standing in front of their own penalty area with their arms akimbo with bewildered expressions.

From 2-1 to 3-2.

They led Real Madrid for almost a whole game today, only to be equalized and then defeated at the last minute? !

Such an encounter is really demoralizing!

No one with absolute luck can defeat this Real Madrid. The morale of Real Sociedad players collapsed and their mentality completely exploded!

Griezmann bit his lip, but he was still unwilling to give in.

After finally waiting for the game to restart, he was still looking for the last hope and making his final efforts.

Until the whistle blows at the end of the game!

The scene at the Bernabeu is going crazy again!

But all Real Sociedad players know that these Real Madrid fans are not celebrating Real Madrid's victory over Real Sociedad.

What they celebrate is that Real Madrid has overcome adversity!

If you can win such a game, what other opponents and difficulties will stump Real Madrid?

Real Madrid, the big devil in the second half of the season, may be released early this year!

After the game, Li Ang still couldn't hide his excitement.

He kept waving his arms at the Real Madrid fans in the stands on all sides, gesturing for them to cheer louder!

After that, he was dragged into the carnival by his teammates!

This stunning comeback shocked the continent's elite teams ahead of FIFA's annual awards ceremony.

Many fans of other wealthy teams felt the shock of "numbness in the scalp" after watching Real Madrid's crazy offensive in the last twenty minutes!

It can be said that this battle was almost a perfect warm-up for the FIFA annual celebration on the night of January 7, 2013.

Almost all the main players of Real Madrid's first team participated in the celebration that night.

Of course Mourinho is indispensable among them.

Before the celebration began, Li Ang not only met many acquaintances at the scene, but also made a preliminary new friend.

That is, he is still playing in the Brazilian League, but there have been transfer scandals with Real Madrid and Real Madrid, and he is currently a popular player in football.

Neymar.

Both of them were new to this kind of celebration, and they were similar in age and spoke the same language, so they quickly chatted together.

However, as the celebration began, the two could only sit upright in front of the camera with awkward smiles, and began to act like spectators.

Without any surprise, Real Madrid and the Spanish national team shared the largest share of the awards cake that night!

Mourinho was elected the best coach of the year, Ronaldo won the second Ballon d'Or in his career, and as many as seven of Real Madrid's main players were selected for the best team of the year!

Li Ang has not competed with any of the midfield trio of Xavi, Iniesta and Longo.

No way, the European Cup is really a bonus.

If there is no major competition in 2012, then Li Ang should be selected into FIFA's Best Eleven of the Year together with Long Ge.

But now he can only smile and applaud in the audience.

However, there is still some good news, that is, his final Ballon d'Or ranking exceeded his expectations and reached the top 20.

He ranked eighteenth in the 2012 Golden Globe Awards.

The Chinese media at the scene were very excited.

But compared to this ranking, Li Ang's eyes are more focused on the Golden Globe Award trophy in Ronaldo's hands.

Before coming, he thought he should be quite calm.

But now?

Well, regarding the Golden Globe Award, Li Ang confessed that he was indeed greedy!

Very greedy!

Today’s sincerity is all in the update.

Foodies can only say, there is more!

Big guys, come together with your subscriptions and tickets, foodies can bear it!
