Starting from playing as a defensive midfielder for Real Madrid

"The Little Lions have penetrated the opponent's central defense for three consecutive games. Can't this be said to be luck?"

"It definitely can't be counted as luck. Occasionally a performance like this can be said to be luck. Three consecutive games are still in the Champions League. This is a reflection of strength!"

"Well, actually I think the current midfield configurations of Arsenal and Manchester United are really bad. At least they can't be considered the first echelon in football. We still have to watch Bayern."

"Yes, Bayern's current game is also stable. The defensive midfield combination of Martinez + Bastian Schweinsteiger is very strong!"

"It's useless. The best defensive midfielder combination in Europe is with Real Madrid. No matter how strong Bayern is, they can't beat Real Madrid's midfield."

"That's true, but I think Real Madrid still have to be mentally prepared in advance."

When Real Madrid took a 2-0 lead over Manchester United, fans in China were immediately relieved.

Seeing that Real Madrid has another foot into the final top four of the Champions League this season, everyone began to eagerly discuss Li Ang's performance.

When playing against Arsenal and Manchester United, Li Ang blasted the opposing defender in the middle.

The way of strong breakthrough is a bit rough. After penetrating the opponent's defense, Li Ang mostly chooses to pass the ball.

If you have to say that you can defeat your opponent with your own strength, then that's not the case. There is no beauty in being able to surpass others.

But Li Ang's contribution to the top three in winning games is still more than enough.

This will not be denied by fans in China or other countries.

In this game, Li Ang opened the scoring, and his explosive shot directly destroyed Manchester United's tactical balance!

Most of the domestic fans' evaluations of Li Ang have filters.

Therefore, it is inevitable that some aspects will still be exaggerated.

But at this moment in Europe, as long as the fans watched this game, they only have one word for their feelings about Li Ang:

powerful!

Manchester United fans were angry, but also helpless.

This is the gap in pure personal strength in the midfield.

In the first half, Cleverley and Anderson couldn't resist Li Ang's rampage, and the defensive end suffered first.

In the second half, Manchester United attacked, but it turned out that Li Ang was in charge in the backcourt.

Even though Essien's state has declined a lot compared to last season, Li Ang still helped Essien hold up the interception line in front of Alonso!

This game lasted until the 80th minute of the second half. After Real Madrid scored the second goal, they shrunk their formation and defended.

The besieging Manchester United players were physically exhausted, but Liang could still steal the ball from time to time and then rush towards Manchester United's half!

This physical ability is outrageous!

Manchester United fans don't care at all whether Li Ang has run 13 or 14 kilometers.

They just want to see Manchester United pull a goal back to cheer up the scene.

But it is a pity that Mourinho replaced Albiol and Matuidi at the last moment.

Di Maria and Benzema were both off, leaving Real Madrid with only Ronaldo in the frontcourt to intimidate Manchester United's defense.

Real Madrid's iron barrel array is full.

Three central defenders with strong header ability are in the penalty area, and four defensive midfielders are lined up in front of the defense!

In this era where there is an increasing shortage of excellent defensive midfielders, Real Madrid's four-midfielder configuration is really too luxurious.

The fans at Manchester United watched with envy and pain!

Not to mention Leon and Alonso, even if they are given Matuidi, or even Essien who is in declining condition!

They might even be able to compete with Real Madrid in this game.

It's a pity that we can't divide it.

As the game gradually came to an end, the Red Devils fans felt increasingly helpless.

In the end, after Albiol won the top battle again, the referee on duty blew the whistle for the end of the game!

Ferguson took one last look at the pitch, and then without hesitation turned his head to face Mourinho, who was walking towards him.

"Jose."

"Sir."

After the two shook hands and hugged, they also sighed and talked for a while on the sidelines.

Just like Mourinho and Wenger before.

After they no longer compete in the same league, the stories that were once full of gunpowder between them are just stories.

The only people here today are old friends from the same industry.

"If I had spent money on Li Ang in the summer of 2011, would it be Manchester United who is celebrating the victory at Old Trafford today?"

After saying hello, Sir Alex suddenly put his arm on Mourinho's arm and asked this question.

Mourinho did not expect Ferguson to ask such a question.

He thought for a moment, and to his surprise again, he couldn't confidently say the word "No!"

"Although it makes no sense to assume, if Li Ang's growth rate remains unchanged, I have to be honest... I don't know."

Mourinho's honesty made Ferguson laugh.

The two met for a drink in Ferguson's stadium conference room before saying goodbye.

At the Old Trafford Stadium at this moment, Ronaldo and Rooney were high-fiving each other, while Carrick and Alonso were talking with their mouths covered.

Li Ang took off his jersey readily and exchanged jerseys with the slightly shy Heibei.

From the beginning to the end, there was not much excitement in this game.

Manchester United's players feel more helpless after trying their best.

In fact, before the game started, the players on both sides knew what their status was and whether they had a chance to advance to the next round of the Champions League.

Compared with the strength gap between Barcelona and Manchester United in the 2011 final, the gap between Real Madrid and Manchester United is actually even greater now.

This is the gap in hard power of the entire team. It is difficult for individual performance to reverse the situation when the team is suppressed as a whole.

Although Manchester United was more attacking in the second half today and Real Madrid was defending, Real Madrid did suppress Manchester United in the situation.

The crazy half-court sweep and pressing defense put a lot of pressure on Manchester United's players and fans.

We can only talk about trying our best. Apart from trying our best, reviewing this game will not bring more gains to the current Manchester United.

After today's game, in fact, all Manchester United players know it.

The Red Devils where they are.

It's time to rebuild.

When Real Madrid returned to Madrid, they were greeted by praise from almost all Spanish media.

After Barcelona's decline, Real Madrid took over the banner of the La Liga team in the Champions League. Since last season, it has been steadily defeating strong enemies from all walks of life, and it indeed deserves to enjoy this dividend of public opinion.

At the same time, Dortmund, who returned to Germany, also enjoyed similar praise from public opinion.

Because they beat their opponents by two goals in the away game, just like Real Madrid.

3-1, Dortmund used their signature fast attack to storm Galatasaray's so-called devil's home court!

With three away goals in hand, Dortmund is basically guaranteed to advance to the next round of the Champions League knockout rounds.

Without much media publicity, there was already a strong fighting spirit between Real Madrid and Dortmund.

Dortmund lost by one goal to Real Madrid in both games in the group stage. They must be extremely unwilling to do so.

If they can meet Real Madrid again in the Champions League semi-finals, Klopp and Dortmund's players will naturally hope for successful revenge.

And Real Madrid is naturally not afraid to challenge again.

Real Madrid can win the two meetings in the group stage, and then in the semi-finals, Real Madrid will still be the final winner!

This is the confidence and confidence of the defending champion!

If you don't accept it, then fight again.

Real Madrid will let Dortmund's players understand that it is not youth and frivolity that can win everything.

After experiencing failure, you can still stand firm and have the courage to climb to the top again. Then Dortmund will talk about the possibility of defeating Real Madrid and winning the Champions League.

In terms of experience, mentality, and strength, basically only Bayern Munich can compete with Real Madrid in the final battle this season.

Mourinho can set his sights very low and play every game well.

But his ambitions are also very lofty.

At the Valdebebas base in Madrid, Real Madrid players were enjoying a short vacation and adjusting to their physical condition.

Mourinho's eyes are already staring at Dortmund in northern Germany, and all the way south, aiming at Munich!

He knows that this season Real Madrid will eventually have a new ending with Bayern in the Champions League final.

Barcelona couldn't stop Bayern, who was in full swing.

Just like Dortmund can't stop Real Madrid who are determined.

or

Maybe after he expresses his inner thoughts to the outside world, he will be evaluated as "arrogant" by public opinion.

But he didn't care, he was a madman.

And now, he has the most powerful super team in Europe!

※※※

On the evening of April 3, the remaining four teams in the Champions League quarterfinals competed.

After a 90-minute fierce battle, Juventus finally lost to the tough Bayern at home, losing 1-2.

To be honest, if the striker combination can be improved to a higher level and "match" Juventus's background, then Juventus may really have a chance to continue to compete with Bayern.

After all, Juventus' midfield combination of Vidal, Pirlo and Marchisio is very strong!

It was stronger than most fans expected before the game.

The midfielder can compete and the defense is still stable, but the forward line really can't hold up.

Bayern has a frontline trident of Muller + Ribery + Mandzukic, with Robben and Gomez also sitting on the bench.

Juventus is Quagliarella + Matri, and sitting on the bench is Vucinic + Giovinco.

This really can't be put on the same level for comparison.

Juventus' trip to the Allianz Arena in Munich in the second round is expected to be unlucky, and its finishing ability is really weaker by more than one level.

But the current Juventus is fully worthy of the assessment of "promising future" strength.

Xia Chuang continues to renovate the striker, and they will work together next year. There will always be a place for Juventus among the future Champions League giants.

Juventus at home lost to Bayern, but another team in the second half of the Champions League quarterfinals at home, Paris Saint-Germain, drew with Barcelona!

Ibrahimovic, who scored twice, completed his revenge at the last moment!

His brilliance overshadowed Barcelona's two away goals.

If Ibrahimovic still maintains this anger, he will definitely continue to embarrass Pique when he goes to the Nou Camp in the second round.

At this point, the first round of the Champions League quarter-finals is over.

Three of the games had a winner, with only Barcelona and Paris drawing in the first round.

In the second round, the game between Barcelona and Paris should still be the most anxious.

This result really made Barcelona fans feel a little bad.

But soon, an even more uncomfortable scene appeared in La Liga.

On the afternoon of April 5th, Real Madrid, who made their early appearance at the Santiago Bernabeu, were in great form and slaughtered Levante 7-0!

Real Madrid fans are counting on the remaining rounds of the season and the points lead over Barcelona, ​​and they have already started chanting to win the championship in advance!
