Football Winner

"Who Can Stop This Chinese".

The next day, the front pages of the Catalan media such as World Sports Daily and Daily Sports Bar were all reports of the Real Madrid World League, and the page was a picture of Li Yi raising his hands after winning the victory.

Despair, Barcelona finally experienced the feeling of despair this season. You must know that with the end of the nineteenth round of the league, they have won seven consecutive victories, which means that they have never lost again after losing to Real Madrid.

This should have been a proud streak, but with Real Madrid's 19-game winning streak, there is still a little bit of pride in the hearts of Barcelona people, and some are just despair.

Compared with the despair of the Catalans, other Spanish media and fans are much better mentally, but even so, there are still media who shout out who can stop Real Madrid.

After winning Sevilla, Real Madrid's opponents are not strong in the next few rounds. The strength of Cadiz, Celta, Espanyol, etc. is not enough to shake Real Madrid. Of course, there is no desperate victory in football games. The weak team is not without the possibility of upset.

But that also depends on which team it is and how it is doing recently. After all, Real Madrid has won 19 consecutive victories, which is a brand new record and an incredible record for other teams in La Liga.

In fact, not only other teams in La Liga, but even Real Madrid themselves feel a little incredible, what is the concept of 19 consecutive victories? The longest winning streak in the top five European leagues, and the first team to win by half in the top five European leagues.

After the game, Real Madrid's president once again made his debut and invited all the first team members to have a dinner, which is also what Florentino does most often this season.

Before, Florentino just wanted to communicate with Li Yi, but as Li Yi brought everyone along, the Real Madrid president seemed to like this way.

The next day, Li Yi gave the players a half-day leave. There was no need to come to the club to report in the morning, and in the afternoon, the focus was on recovery. The Sevilla match was considered a tough battle.

And with the 19-game winning streak, Li Yi also felt that the atmosphere in the team was a bit wrong. There was no good way for Li Yi to do this.

Besides, Real Madrid can afford to lose now, but this does not include the King's Cup in midweek. After the return from the winter break, Real Madrid will still play double games a week, and the King's Cup and the league will be played alternately.

Sevilla, the opponent of Real Madrid's Copa del Rey also comes from Sevilla, but it is not Sevilla, which has just lost to Real Madrid, but another team in the city of Sevilla, Real Betis.

And unlike the previous league match, Real Madrid’s quarter-final first leg was away from home.

Real Madrid need to go to Sevilla first.

Compared with Athletic Bilbao, Real Betis is not much stronger, but this game is different from the previous opponent from the beginning, even if Li Yi's starting lineup is still dominated by young players from the bench.

Even 20 minutes before the start of the game, Real Madrid actually lost its previous initiative on the field and was faintly suppressed by Real Betis.

I have to say that Real Madrid is very lucky. Although Real Betis has taken the initiative to a certain extent, they are always a little short of the goal.

Real Madrid, who survived the disaster, gradually regained the initiative in the second half of the first half, but like Real Betis, Real Madrid just won the game without scoring.

This situation continued into the second half, until after Li Yi made a substitution, the appearance of Real Madrid captain Raul finally changed the final result of the game.

In the 79th minute, Guti sent a straight pass. After receiving the pass, Raul broke through the defender and rushed into the penalty area with a powerful shot. This goal was also the only goal in the game.

In other words, with Raul's goal, Real Madrid finally ended the trip to Sevilla with a victory.

However, this victory could not make Li Yi happy. After returning to the locker room, Li Yi directly scolded the players who started the game, and told them bluntly that if they didn't seize all the starting opportunities, they would always have to sit on the bench. seat.

If the main players of Real Madrid are qualified to be proud, it is because these players are already superstars and have certain achievements of their own, but now these young players of Real Madrid are also proud, which makes Li Yi how to bear it.

Li Yi's saliva is still very useful, after all, with Li Yi's prestige in the team, even the superstars inside do not dare to refute, let alone these young players.

In fact, Li Yi also warned the starters. After winning 19 consecutive victories, the players obviously showed signs of slackening on the training ground, and a sense of pride spread throughout the team.

Li Yi knew that, given the current situation of Real Madrid, Real Madrid players were qualified to be proud, and he knew better that this pride must need to be lost to wake up.

Losing a game or two with Real Madrid's current situation is nothing, but as the head coach, Li Yi is still struggling.

It is said that Li Yi's struggle is still somewhat useful. In addition, the gap between Real Madrid's next opponents is too great. In the 20th round of the league, Real Madrid welcomed Cadiz at home.

In this game, Real Madrid continued the good luck of the previous game against Sevilla, breaking the deadlock shortly after the opening, but the subsequent development was similar to that of Sevilla.

After scoring, Real Madrid always took the initiative, but Real Madrid's initiative could never be turned into a real advantage. When the referee blew the first half of the game, the score was still 1:0.

Although the development of the situation in the first half was similar to that of the nineteenth round, in the second half, the situation changed because Cadiz took the lead in scoring the goal in the second half, chasing the score to 1:1.

This score was a little bit of a wake-up call for Real Madrid's players, especially for a long time to come, Real Madrid continued the state of the first half without scoring.

In this case, Li Yi can only seek substitutions to solve this problem. Ronaldo, who scored the first goal, was replaced by Owen, Zidane was also replaced by Figo, and even Salgado was replaced by Figo. Li Yi replaced him with Juan Fran, who had stronger offensive ability.

Li Yi's substitution once again saved his team. Owen, who came off the bench, helped Real Madrid regain the advantage five minutes later, and it was Figo, who appeared with him, who provided an assist.

Three minutes after Owen helped Real Madrid regain the advantage, Juanfran, who had just come off the bench, also sent an assist.

The Frenchman received a pass and decisively attacked the penalty area of ​​Cadiz, and after dunking the defender, he shot a powerful shot to help Real Madrid expand their lead and completely kill the game, because at this moment, the game will enter the field in two minutes. time stage.
