Chapter 281 Against Barcelona
Finally, Mourinho nodded and signaled Di Maria to continue.
Zhu Xu lowered his eyes and said nothing. He understood the rules, but he could understand some things but could not accept them. He might be able to accept tiring work, but dirty work? He could not compromise on some things. He was indeed inferior to Di Maria in this regard.
On the green field, Las Diarra, strictly following Mourinho's intentions, stared at Messi closely to prevent Messi from getting the ball. Even if Messi got the ball, he would still destroy it as soon as possible. The Frenchman has done a good job so far. He intercepted Messi in the midfield, Ozil passed the ball, and Cristiano broke through to 30 yards on the left and was saved by Valdes.
The fans of Bernabeu worked hard to build momentum, and cheers and booed one after another.
It is easy to put pressure on Barcelona, but it is not difficult to suppress Barcelona. The difficult thing is to keep this state all the time. After Xavi's free kick was knocked away by Cassi, looking at his teammates who were not in shape all over the field, the Barcelona captain was angry, and the Golden Lion King started roaring all over the field. He ran from the backcourt to the frontcourt, ran to the backcourt again in the frontcourt, directed the team loudly, scolded or encouraged? No one except Barcelona players knew what he said.
Puyorke is different from other younger generations of Barcelona. He was promoted to Barcelona's first team in 1999. He experienced the darkest five years of Barcelona. His career was at the trough. In those five years, he accompanied Barcelona to go through the darkest time. What else can make him lose his mind? He can withstand the pressure than anyone else.
Puyol is the soul of this Barcelona team. Barcelona players slowly return to normal amid the roar of their captain. Yes, no matter how much pressure they are, no matter when, they have a captain to rely on. What does it matter? All we have to do is play football well, and the others are not important.
Barcelona's change is unfavorable for Real Madrid. It is best to score a goal at this time to defeat Barcelona's momentum again.
Cristiano knew very well what he should do at this time, aroused the enthusiasm of his teammates and suppressed Barcelona's momentum. Casillas wanted to defend in front of the goal, so he was the only one to come.
Goals, goals, as long as you score, you can change everything. Seeing Messi not far away, thinking about the golden ball that everyone talked about a few days ago, I want to score a goal, I want to prove that I am no worse than anyone else. I am the pillar of this team, and I will definitely score a goal, Cristiano told himself.
The opportunity came soon. Benzema got Ozil's ball and attracted the defending players from the wing, and passed the ball without hesitation. He understood his mission, football was a game of cooperation, and as long as his teammates had a better position than him, he should hand over the ball.
Christie dribbled the ball and broke into the penalty area. He followed the Barcelona player, the winner of the Golden Boot Award, and was the target of Barcelona's focus. Di Maria happened to be on the right.
"Opportunity, Di Maria is unguarded"
"Oh no defense, Di Maria"
At this moment, Madrid and Barcelona commentators said similar things.
Cristiano raised his foot and shot in a flash
At that moment, Cristiano did not choose to pass the ball, but directly shot and shot from the edge of the penalty area.
Valdes jumped high, the reflex nerve was the best goalkeeper, and he made no mistake this time
Cristiano held his head in pain in front of the penalty area.
This is a chance to lead, but they missed it. The Bernabeu sighed disappointed, but it quickly turned into applause. At this time, they were still in the lead. They were going to become Barcelona's home court, not Real Madrid's home court. They were the best backing for the White Legion.
Real Madrid players were a little disappointed. They missed the best opportunity. Every opportunity was difficult when playing against Barcelona. Barcelona is not a team that is easy to make mistakes. Every opportunity was forced out through all their hardships. Real Madrid players were a little uneasy. As top players, they felt that Barcelona was changing and they were not suppressed like the beginning. Although they had an advantage in the current situation, Barcelona was getting back to the situation bit by bit.
The overly intense home atmosphere and Barcelona's gradual recovery made him start to get nervous. What if he loses at the Bernabeu? They forgot to comfort each other and become anxious.
Carlos spoke: "Cristiano made a mistake, he seemed to be single again, he should pass the ball Di Maria."
Winster changed from Rohe to Rome: "He may be worried. Di Maria's shot is not good. If the prince is in that position, I think Cristiano will pass it."
Mourinho looked at the Real Madrid players on the stadium and found some hidden dangers, but this is the psychological state of the players. This Real Madrid team is always full of uncertainties when they face Barcelona.
He looked at Zhu Xu. If it was Zhu Xu who stood in Di Maria's position, Cristiano might really be able to give the ball. If anyone in this team could make the proud Cristiano agree with the ball skills, then it would be Zhu Xu.
Cristiano regards Messi as his biggest opponent and will never give up, but he does not have to compete with Zhu Xu. Instead, he often provides help. The two get along very well. Maybe, maybe Zhu Xu should be put on the court, Mourinho thought.
Off the court, the crazy man's heart still changed, and the atmosphere on the court also quietly changed. Cristiano's kick not only knocked away the ball, but also knocked away the morale of Real Madrid. As the leader, your emotions can more affect the players, especially in such games.
Alonso, Las, and others were a little anxious. At the beginning, they did take the initiative and separate Barcelona's defense and midfield. However, as Barcelona gradually regained their sanity, the task became more and more difficult to complete. Barcelona is not a team that will be restricted from the beginning to the end.
When Messi tried to serve the defense again, Alonso could only foul Messi, and some people you could only use fouls to stop them.
Alonso was given a yellow card for his actions. One minute later, Sanchez returned to defense and tackled Di Maria and was also warned by a yellow card.
Real Madrid got another chance. At the critical moment, Barcelona captain Puyol cleared the ball, and the ball was obtained by Las, and Diyala shot high from a long shot.
Barcelona's counterattack began. After being suppressed for 30 minutes, the Barcelona players slowly began to equalize the situation. Messi scored the ball in the midfield and broke through three Real Madrid players and sent a straight pass. Sanchez was pressed by Pepe and Cointran and successfully shot a low shot in front of the penalty area.
This time, Casillas was unable to stop Barcelona's attack. This time, he did not defend Real Madrid's goal, and his people had their limits.
"Oh my God, Barcelona scored a goal, it's so bad," Carlos said listlessly.
The opposite is Barcelona's commentator: "I scored a goal, 30 minutes, we equalized the score, and we will lead again. This season is not over yet, and the victory belongs to us."
1-1 Barcelona equalized the score
At the Bernabeu Stadium, thousands of Barcelona fans cheered. Real Madrid fans paused for a moment, then quickly counterattacked, giving Barcelona a huge boo.
The score is tied
All Real Madrid players are getting heavier in their hearts at this moment, and their advantage in the dream start is no longer there
Tied? Why did it tied? What should I do? Goals, goals, we need to score
Saint Cassi picked up the ball from the goal and shouted loudly: "Don't be messed up, Ramos, Pepe, don't panic, Alonso, you can do it, Ras, please pay attention to Messi, Cristiano cooperate, don't forget what the gentleman said."
It is difficult for Saint Cassi's roar to reach the frontcourt. The atmosphere on the scene is so hot. His position is really the queen's side. Real Madrid's frontcourt is eager to score a goal now, and they can't hear the call of their captain at all.
In the 33rd minute, after Di Maria intercepted Messi, there was only a goal in his mind. At this moment, Di Maria, like Cristiano, did not choose to cooperate with her teammates, and ran for more than 40 meters. Finally, Messi was asked to chase back and grab the ball against it.
Mourinho's face was a little bitter. This was not a team he was familiar with. As expected, the pressure was too high, and his disciples would have less communication. Cristiano always forgets that he is the leader of this team, and Casillas' position is destined to be unable to do too much. This team is too young and young people lack experience and have excellent talent, which leads to a single person who works alone when they are nervous and dangerous, and they all want to score goals with their own strength.
Football is always a game of 11 people, especially when you stand opposite you with a player as good as you, and picking a team by yourself, how can you win?
Mourinho resolutely walked towards Zhu Xu: "Zhu Xu, Barcelona makes everyone too nervous. I need you to show your sense of responsibility in the national team and go on the court. From the next moment, treat yourself as the captain of Real Madrid. What Cristiano has not done. You need a bloody captain who can fight Puyol. Put away your elegance and fight for Real Madrid like a warrior in the next moment."
The madman gave Zhu Xu a hug: "Child, don't let me down"
Zhu Xu focused heavily on his heart. He was grateful and respectful to Mourinho who brought him to the Bernabeu. If he hadn't been the madman insisted, he would not have come to such a great club. Looking at Mourinho's hair getting whiter and his teammates who had been taking good care of him on the court, he was willing to fight for his mentor, he was willing to fight for his teammates, and he was willing to fight for any obstacles that were blocking their way forward.
"Sir, don't worry, I won't let you down, never," Zhu Xu said word by word: "I will do my best to fight."
Mourinho patted Zhu Xu on the back. He believed that Zhu Xu had never disappointed him. No matter how high his requirements were, Zhu Xu always completed better than he asked.
Zhu Xu stood on the court with a serious look on his face, preparing to replace his teammates
I won't let everyone down, I will definitely not, I will go to the game calmly, this is our battle
Bernabeu plays a substitution sign
Commentaries from all over the country spoke at the same time: "In 34 minutes, Mourinho made personnel adjustments, Real Madrid took the lead in substitution, and Zhu Xu replaced Di Maria."...
