Ball king grower

Zidane obviously attaches more importance to Liverpool, the opponent in the Champions League quarter-finals, than to the league opponents. You must know that the next league game, which is the 26th round of La Liga, is still being played before the Champions League quarter-finals.

Why?

In fact, the reason is very simple. Real Madrid's opponent in the next round is Getafe, which is currently ranked fourth from the bottom. Zidane does not take such an opponent seriously at all. He believes that as long as the team performs at 70% of its level,

You can defeat your opponent.

The most important thing is that this game is still at home. Real Madrid at the Bernabeu Stadium is so scary. I believe many opponents have already tried it this season.

In order to fully prepare for the big battle at Anfield Stadium, Zidane made a large number of rotations for this game, including Lin Yu who was not even included in the squad.

As a result, he also paid a huge price for his rashness and carelessness. Although Real Madrid had the advantage and completely suppressed Getafe throughout the game, no matter how hard they played, they never scored, or they hit the post.

Either it hit the crossbar or the opponent's player, and Getafe goalkeeper Moya's performance in this game was like a miracle, and he did not let Real Madrid enter the net.

When the substitute time came, Getafe took advantage of a free kick and Pedro Leon, who had joined Real Madrid that year, hit the target.

What a killer!

A 1:0 victory!

Real Madrid is on the verge of tears.

Before this game, the games between Barcelona and Atletico Madrid that had ended were both won, so Real Madrid, which originally led the standings by one point, was two points behind Barcelona and only one point ahead of Atletico Madrid. In this way.

As soon as this happened, the situation of winning the championship became more complicated and confusing.

Zidane was very angry and blamed himself. At the post-match press conference, he took all the responsibility on himself, believing that his underestimation of the opponent led to the team's loss.

But in fact, if you analyze it carefully, there is nothing wrong with what he did. In order to defeat Liverpool in the away game, he rested the main players and rotated the team. This was the right thing to do. In fact, Real Madrid's substitute lineup also played very well.

.It’s just that we lost in the end.

To put it bluntly, if you lose, everything you do is wrong, but if you win, everything you do is right.

Zidane didn't want to defend himself. He silently endured the media's bombardment. Instead, Lin Yu was the first to stand up and speak for Zidane: "What's wrong with losing? Which team hasn't capsized in the gutter?"

We are all so excited, the league championship is still ours!"

Lin Yu has never been modest, and he doesn't know what it means to build character. Because he doesn't care about it. Even if we don't talk about the strength of Real Madrid, in terms of the schedule alone, Real Madrid is actually very advantageous.

In the strong dialogue, Real Madrid has defeated Atletico Madrid twice, and there is still a duel with Barcelona. As long as Barcelona wins, the first place will still be Real Madrid.

What's more, the dialogue between Barcelona and Atletico Madrid in the second half of the season has not yet begun. If the game ends in a draw, it will be more beneficial to Real Madrid's championship. After all, the two teams tied in the first half of the season.

After listening to Lin Yu's words, Qi Da felt somewhat relieved. The biggest problem member in his team supported him so much. This shows that some of his actions are quite popular, so he should not continue to dwell on this lost game now.

game, it is better to be determined to play well in the game against Liverpool.

Zidane is not worried about anything else now. What he is most worried about is actually Lin Yu. Although from this period of time, Lin Yu does not seem to be affected by the last assassination incident, but if a Liverpool fan kills him

What about threats?

If that's the case, will Lin Yu be in poor condition because of fear?

Another point is that, as the media said, Lin Yu has a bad temper. If he gets a red card in the away game, it will be a huge blow to Real Madrid.

…

Because of these two things, Zidane once again found Lin Yu to talk privately. In my memory, except when Lin Yu was at Chelsea, this kind of thing happened the most this season. At that time in Chelsea, Lin Yu often went to Mourinho.

They were eating together at home, so they talked a lot with Mourinho. However, Lin Yu and Zidane obviously haven't reached the level of friends yet. Every time Zidane comes to Lin Yu, it's more important.

matter.

For example, this time, before Zidane opened his mouth, Lin Yu guessed his purpose.

"Look at this!" Lin Yu did not let Zidane speak, but took out two black-covered letters from his bag and handed them to Zidane.

Zidane opened it and his eyes widened: "This is a death threat!"

"That's right, these are just two of them. There are more threatening letters in my email box, but I deleted them all directly." When Lin Yu spoke, he didn't seem to care at all, with a smile on his face.

"Aren't you afraid?" Zidane asked.

"Afraid? No, no, no! Although I don't agree with what Shankly said, 'Football has nothing to do with life and death, football is higher than life and death.' But those who try to threaten me should not expect to succeed. What I, Lin Yu, hate the most is to be threatened.

Yes!" Lin Yu gritted his teeth and said.

Hearing this, Zidane suddenly felt that he was really worried. What kind of person is Lin Yu? He should actually know best, fear? This kid really doesn't know what fear is. He was assassinated for the second time.

Oh my god, this kid just challenged the Barcelona fans directly, without any psychological shadow of being stabbed.

But there was another thing that he still wanted to mention. This was also related to Lin Yu's courage and temper. He was worried too much. If Lin Yu was too courageous and had too bad temper, he would be easily punished. That might be worse than

He was afraid of death threats and trouble.

"Lin Yu..., there is one more thing... Can you suppress your temper temporarily? In the away game against Liverpool, you may encounter some not so good treatment, such as finding trouble, or throwing things at you.

I hope you can hold it back and never get suspended for this. I don’t need to tell you how important you are to the Real Madrid team. You must not act out of emotion!"

Seeing Zidane's cautious and serious look, Lin Yu couldn't help but want to laugh. Do I, Lin Yu, really like to make trouble that much? When it comes to red cards, I only got it once, and it's not too much.

Someone who can cause trouble.

In order to deal with Zidane's problem, he smiled and said: "Don't worry Boss, I'm not a three-year-old child anymore. As long as the other party doesn't do too much, I can still endure it. Or I can take some smarter measures."

method of revenge."

Hearing Lin Yu's words, Zidane became even more worried. The boy's smile clearly showed no intention of restraining himself.

"No, no, no matter how extreme things are, you have to endure it. Maybe others will want to die with you. If the opponent has one less person, it may not have a great impact on the team. What will happen if Real Madrid loses you? You are better than

I know better." Zidane shook his head.

"Okay, I'll try my best..."

"It's not about trying your best, but you must! Even if it's a flop, don't conflict with the other party!"

"False?"

"Oh, it doesn't count as a flop. If the other party uses any violent means to offend you, just fall to the ground. You won't lose any face anyway," Zidane explained.

"Oh, do you need me to cover my face with my hands? Then I can peek out my eyes and see the referee's reaction?"

"...I'm not kidding, Lin Yu!"

"Boss! I'm not kidding. I have never been to La Masia Film and Television Academy for training. I will not do such unscrupulous things. Tooth for tooth, eye for eye is my style!" Lin Yu finally bit

He gritted his teeth and said.

Zidane said earnestly: "Lin Yu, you should understand that you belong to the Real Madrid collective. You cannot destroy this collective because of your own impulse. Do you understand? You should not have forgotten how you were beaten that time.

Barcelona was eliminated, right?”

"Of course I remember. I was shown a red card without doing anything at that time! Do you want me to leave the game with a smile?" Lin Yu said disdainfully.

"This..." Zidane looked helpless. Although he knew that Lin Yu's words made sense, it didn't matter if he softened up sometimes. Why was this kid so stubborn?

While he was annoyed, Lin Yu stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder and said: "Boss, don't worry, I will listen to you this time, but I still won't pretend to be sympathetic, and neither will what I said."

Change—a tooth for a tooth, an eye for an eye! But I will choose a different way!"

"Like what?"

"For example, score him more goals! If they mess with me, I will make Anfield Stadium a purgatory! Of course, it is a purgatory that makes all Liverpool fans miserable! And the owner of this purgatory is, of course, me, Lin Yu, the devil

Yeah, hahahaha!"

Although Lin Yu's words were a bit out of place, now that he said it, no one dared to laugh at it, because Lin Yu did indeed have that ability. He could fill a stadium with love, and he could make a stadium full of love.

It can also turn a stadium into a slaughterhouse!

"Okay! You promised me not to do anything irrational during the game again!" Zidane said happily.

"Don't worry Boss, I still want to dominate the Champions League Golden Boot. No one can stop me from winning the championship! Not even myself!"

"That's good! That's good!"

People like Lin Yu won't say anything if they don't want to, but as long as he agrees to something, he will not regret it, so Zidane is absolutely assured of him.

…

Zidane's worries are not unreasonable. In addition to people constantly sending death threat letters to Lin Yu, the media also began to exaggerate this game.

First of all, the Spanish media added to the confusion. They pointed out that Real Madrid has won ten Champions Leagues and is now heading towards the eleventh Champions League. Although Liverpool has good results in the Champions League, it has only won five Champions League titles. It is just that Real Madrid

Half of Madrid.

This is a naked provocation. They deliberately heat up the atmosphere of the game and attract the attention of the fans. However, these media do not care whether this will cause fierce scolding or even fighting between the fans of both sides.

Immediately afterwards, the media reported a news that in a certain African country, a Liverpool fan was killed because Real Madrid fans laughed at him.

While people mourned the death of this young fan, they also unknowingly raised this hostility to the extreme.

This situation is actually something that neither club wants to see. Liverpool Club simply doesn’t want the Heysel tragedy to happen again, and Liverpool’s players just want to play football quietly, but this atmosphere is full of violence.

, but it made the fans' emotions fluctuate even more.

Unrest has spread among fans from both sides.

The English media is not a fuel-saving lamp. After the Spanish media humiliated Liverpool, they also proposed to beat Real Madrid to the ground. They wanted to beat Real Madrid, who was arrogant and looked down on Liverpool, until they cried for their father and mother. They wanted them to come in standing.

Climb out.

The media's fanning of the flames not only made the extremists among the fans even more excited, but even some players with bad tempers in the team gritted their teeth and said they would make Real Madrid miserable and walk away.

Although before the game, Real Madrid coach Zidane and Liverpool coach Rodgers tried to calm down the fire, hoping to calm everyone down, it was of no use. You can't put out a burning volcano with a scoop of water.
