The Ball at Your Feet

Episode 800

Updated: 2013-10-04

Sometimes, a person's luck can largely determine a person's fate.

Mata was obviously lucky. Zhao Yaning came to Real Madrid from Liverpool. Real Madrid had no money and had to keep him. Afterwards, Zhao Yaning liked fast pace and high speed because of his own football. Guti could not adapt to the high speed of the game. Therefore, changing to Mata in the second half and giving him some time to play has almost become a fixed tactic of Real Madrid. Now Mata has a lot of opportunities to play, and it is also highly valued in Real Madrid.

A person's destiny is so strange. Sometimes, a decision made by others can change a person's destiny.

In contrast, Gago's luck is very bad. After being blown up by Zhao Yaning last season, he has become less and less important. This season, Yaya Toure squeezed his position, and when he played, his chances were even slimmer and he took over from Redondo. People come to the team's bench.

Last year's three South American youngsters went to Real Madrid together, but Gago is the most promising one. At that time, Diarra played poorly, and Emerson hardly played. The two of them, in the position of the back midfielder, are Gago's world by everyone. In contrast, the development environment of Higuain and Marcelo is really bad. One has a position with Raul and the other has a position with Carlos. There is no such position in the game. What improvement is there?

But a year has passed, and the three people's fortunes are so different. Marcelo has almost secured the main position, while Higuain also regularly has the opportunity to play. In contrast, Gago has become the most undervalued. Watching Diarra and Yaya Toure show off on the court, doesn't he want the main position?

Finally, I hoped that they left and returned to the main position. In these few games, I played pretty well and my position was quite stable. However, when I ushered in a new spring, but Suddenly injured again.

After Gago was replaced, he refused the suggestion to check immediately. He was sitting on the sidelines. He wanted to take a good look. He didn’t know why. A very strong feeling made him want to stay here and take a good look at the stadium. Although he didn’t say anything, he already had it in his heart. I have an idea: own injuries, it is very likely that he will not be able to play. When the Africa Cup is over and the two come back, he will have no chance. As a result of repeated no chance, there must be only one.

This may be the time for his rare home player to play at the Bernabéu.

The game was still going on, and Della Reid put on the field. Real Madrid's reserves in the midfielder position are still not rich enough. After Gago goes down, he can only rely on the young players to play. However, unexpectedly, Delrayd, who was replaced, played quite well.

His skills are still good. He is considered a rising star in Spain. Although he is not qualified to be the main force of Real Madrid, at this time, he can maintain the situation without losing the chain. Compared to Gago, what he did was pretty good-and Gago felt even more desperate. There is no way to get rid of the suppression of the first two Big Macs, and the rising star in the back begins to cannibalize their own opportunities. Where is the road going forward and backward?

At this time, Real Madrid also began to fight back. Zhao Yaning took the ball and started a breakthrough on the wing-now Villarreal and Riquelme are very different when they are there. At that time, Riquelme was Huang Qian The core of tactics, he takes the ball on the field, directs, passes and receives, dispatches, everything is around him. And now without Riquelme, the yellow submarine plays 442,

The tactics have also changed a lot.

In front of them, relying on the large-scale running of the two forwards Fran and Rossi to pull the offense, help the wing players get a better range of movement, and also use this method to make their own double The midfielder tactics can be better connected. Pellegrini is obviously a very good coach. With Riquelme, he let the team play around Riquelme and achieved good results. However, when Riquelme was playing big names, he did not hesitate to oust Riquelme, and then integrated more of his own ideas to direct the team, which also played well. Fran and Giuseppe Rossi are both Manchester United's abandoned players, but they have been used out of the standard, relying on the patchwork lineup to kick out the league's top three results, which is also quite remarkable.

This kind of play has a temporary effect on Real Madrid. However, this kind of play is not sustainable after all-Fran and Rossi's running ability is not bad, but their physical confrontation is insufficient. Pepe and Cannavaro do not fight physically, relying on strong physical confrontation, they can interfere with the two people very well, especially they can consume their physical strength very well, and under physical exertion, they are naturally It is impossible to maintain the attack power.

Although Rossi is an Italian player in the ninth and a half, he has a flaw in comparison with Piero-his passing vision is too narrow to pass a good ball. He cannot be a playmaker. The biggest signing, he is not enough to shoulder the responsibility of the organization, and naturally made the yellow submarine weak.

And their defense is indeed relying on the double midfielder's kicking, which blocked Real Madrid's offensive for a while. Guti is not good at this kind of situation, it is difficult to cope with the double defensive midfielder. However, Real Madrid still has Zhao Yaning after all. His tearing ability is extremely terrifying. As Raul began to retreat outside the penalty area to meet, Zhao Yaning's running position was also coordinated. Soon, Zhao Yaning made a pass on the left and was received by Raul, and he directly shot with a simple and precise shot. , The ball passed the goalkeeper!

"Real Madrid pulled back a goal!"

Real Madrid’s offensive was not over yet. Soon after Zhao Yaning got the ball and swayed Senna, he shot out from outside the penalty area and was thrown out by the goalkeeper. However, Higuain was very beautiful. He grabbed a point, broke the net with a fill shot, and kicked the ball into the goal again!

2-2, tied.

And just before the end of the first half, Senna kicked Zhao Yaning to the ground with a foul, which gave Real Madrid a pretty good free kick opportunity. Zhao Yaning kicked the ball up with a free kick and broke again. The opponent's door!

Is it another reversal?

Gago didn’t know whether he should cry or laugh: he was looking forward to the team winning, but after he was replaced, the team reversed the game. It seemed that he had a big problem. This season, he still has A chance?

"Muscle strain, the rest period is about a month or so."

Real Madrid's team doctor made a judgment on Gago's injury.

After the game, Real Madrid players also ran to see Gago's injury. However, things seem to be much more serious than they thought. Gago shoveled Rossi, but he did not shovel down, but he strained his muscles and needed a long time to rest.

This is really a double blow for him and Real Madrid: Real Madrid has no good midfielder this time, and Gago has lost his main position because of his injury.

"Have the tackle been too hard? Be careful next time."

Raul frowned slightly when he heard the team doctor talking, but still spoke.

Zhao Yaning has long heard that other places in Real Madrid can be regarded as luxurious, but the only thing that is not luxurious is the level of Real Madrid's team doctor.

It seems that their level is notoriously unqualified. Even in 2005, the media exposed that it was Real Madrid’s doctors who were Barcelona fans. In order to make Barcelona win, they deliberately treated Real Madrid’s players to the bad. In this case, Zhao Yaning didn’t know whether it was true or not, but even if it was false. , The medical skills are so bad that the media thinks the doctors who are undercover opponents are also quite weird. Moreover, what Zhao Yaning knows is that the Real Madrid players are injured and really like to go back to their own country or go to the United States to treat their injuries. Although the Madrid team doctor has a reputation among the top ten in the world, he has too many inferiorities in the past, and people dare not trust them too much. Although American football is poor, their medical care is well-developed after all. Many players have been injured and chose to go to the United States for medical treatment.

However, Gago's injury is obviously not serious, and it's not a big deal. It is not guilty of going abroad for treatment.

"That's right, come here quickly, we can't do without you." Zhao Yaning was on the side and also said something comforting.

Gago didn’t know if he should laugh: the game was not won. Although Real Madrid once turned the score to 3-2, after the second half, the yellow submarine relied on Fran’s long shot to set the score again. It became 3-3. As a teenager, De La Reid's performance is quite qualified, but as a Real Madrid player, it is quite unqualified. Real Madrid is a giant, and the requirements of the giants are too high. It is too difficult for the young guys to play the main force here.

Although Gago was mediocre, he was not unqualified. Zhao Yaning's words were not polite.

"To be honest, it doesn't make much sense for me to return to the team." Gago smiled bitterly. "I was able to recover, and it was the end of February and the beginning of March. At that time, the match against Rome was just too much. It's over. I can't help the team much. Moreover, at that time, all the players who participated in the Africa Cup came back. We don't need me anymore."

In addition to the league, the biggest impact of the African Cup is the Champions League. In the Champions League match, the Africa Cup just ended. The players were exhausted after running long distances. It was difficult to be the main starter. Chelsea suffered this loss. Because Drogba was not there, their game was messed up and they were eliminated. UEFA Champions League. Not far from Yin Jian, Real Madrid will naturally not take risks. When it comes to the game against Rome, I am afraid it will be the biggest trouble.

However, trouble is trouble, and Gago's mentality is not very qualified. From the big point, being so pessimistic may affect the team's performance. At the small point, with pressure, the speed of recovery will also be affected.

"Don't say that, everyone's return is of great help to us. You don't have to worry about results. It's okay, you just need to heal your injuries honestly. The game matters. Leave it to us. "Zhao Yaning patted Gago, "You have a better mentality, how can you say that you are also Redondo's successor, so sluggish, it's not plausible."

Redondo... Gago smiled bitterly. Is this name a blessing or a curse?

"That is, we will come to see you from time to time. If you don't recover well, I, Joey, ta, we will come often when it's okay." Raul also said.

"You just need to come, he won't use it." Gago glanced at Higuain, a little provocative, "I don't want to see him."

"What's the matter?" Zhao Yaning asked puzzledly.

"Just ask him." Gago said, "He is seduce my girlfriend."

Is there such a thing? Zhao Yaning looked back at Higuain-it seemed that Gago's downturn was not entirely the cause of the game.
