Chapter 328 Change of Dynasty
The World War that was expected by all fans before the game came to an end when everyone was not very satisfied.In the end, Real Madrid defeated their rival Barcelona 2::1 at home relying on Gago's one pass and one shot.

After the game, Barcelona's players stood on the court with a look of unwillingness. They can be said to have taken the initiative in this game, but they just couldn't get the lead.The midfield barrier composed of Gago, Alonso and Mascherano will firmly block their offense at the front of the penalty area.

I don't know what's going on, but Real Madrid's usual ball-handling tactics seem to have been understood here. They created a lot of chances at the beginning, but since Gago retreated, under his command, the team has continued to improve. He couldn't get a good chance, but was counterattacked twice by the opponent and scored two goals.

This game is not reconciled!
Guardiola looked gloomy at the press conference after the game, and Schuster, who had won the ball, looked gloomy.The two masters were not in the mood, so the press conference ended hastily.

The reporters were all puzzled. It is understandable that Guardiola is unhappy. Why is Schuster, who won the ball, like this?

However, some smart people have already thought of the key point. Although Real Madrid won this game, the passiveness of the scene is not at all like last year's "Five Crowns".On the contrary, after a series of unbeaten records, Barcelona accumulated self-confidence to the extreme, and beat their rivals in the away game.

Had it not been for Gago's outbreak again, Real Madrid would have lost to Barcelona at home again after a lapse of three years.

And Gago can explode in this game, so how could the next game be such a coincidence? It's something that all giants will not do to pin the outcome of the game on one player.

The current Real Madrid players have become slack because of a series of honors. This is still the case of Barcelona's strong rise this season.If there is no reminder of this mortal enemy who has been pressing on their heads, Real Madrid may have fallen because of all kinds of pride and arrogance.

Prosperity must decline, this is a necessary journey for every giant. After Real Madrid dominated La Liga for two consecutive years, it began to gradually show its decline.Schuster has already seen this sign, but at this time he hopes that Barcelona can perform better, so that he can have the opportunity to inspire the fighting spirit of the players again.

But when the two teams actually played against each other, they found that the opponent who had been trampled by him in the past actually overtook him. This was very bad for Schuster, who had a high self-esteem.

"It seems that those boys are too comfortable, and we must train them well in the next time!"

Schuster thought about the rest of the season on the way to the locker room. At this time, he has decided to use double training and Barcelona to readjust the state of his players.

When he walked into the locker room, he found that all the players did not celebrate much, and left after taking a shower and changing their clothes.And some old and steady players looked a little heavy, such as Raul, he also saw the problem.

"Where's Phil?"

Schuster walked into the locker room and found that Gago was not there, so he asked casually.

"He went to practice with Gonzalo!"

Marcelo pretended to answer honestly.

"Well!"

Schuster was stunned after hearing this, and then smiled on his face, looking very satisfied.

Most of the team still maintained a motivated attitude, and he should be thankful that the age structure of the players in the first team is reasonable.Veterans, stars, geniuses together there will always be those who are eager for honor.

It will be difficult to lead a team composed of all veterans, and it will be difficult to lead a team consisting entirely of young people. Only such a reasonable team of old, middle-aged and young players is best.

The fact that Gago has not lost his desire for honor is the best news for Schuster. As long as the number one star has a strong fighting spirit, the team will not be afraid of lack of combat effectiveness.

Thinking of this, Schuster gestured to the players to dismiss the meeting, left the locker room, and called his coaching team over again.

"Now, let's discuss the UEFA Champions League round of [-] knockout at home at the end of the month. Chelsea is not an easy opponent to deal with, even if we are at home!"

Schuster looked at the schedule posted on the tactical board. The time of the two rounds of the Copa del Rey semi-finals was very different. This is the consideration of the Spanish Football Association for the wealthy.After all, after the most important knockout match of the Champions League begins, if Real Madrid and Barcelona fight too hard in the country, it is easy for opponents to take advantage of the European schedule. You must know that only Real Madrid and Barcelona can win points for the league in the entire La Liga.

The Football Association naturally provides convenience for the schedule of these two giants. Originally, Real Madrid was going to face Racing Santander on February [-]th, but Real Madrid, which just had a match with Barcelona on February [-]th, naturally does not have the strength , So I asked the Football Association to postpone the round.There is a tacit understanding that Barcelona also submitted this request, and the officials of the Football Association gave the information after discussing for three hours.

quasi!
Now, the other teams in La Liga are not satisfied, but there is nothing they can do if they are dissatisfied. If there is no Real Madrid and Barcelona in La Liga, their annual income will be at least [-]% less!

In fact, the reason why the two giants applied to postpone the league at this time is because after this round, the national team match day will be reopened.Although it is just some friendly matches, if your own players are allowed to participate with a tired body, it is easy to get injured.

Therefore, in order for their own players to have a better rest, it also sells the head coach of the national team a favor.The tacit cooperation between Real Madrid and Barcelona allowed the Football Association to postpone their league for one round.

After four days of rest in the Copa del Rey, Gago took Mascherano, Higuain and Aguero to France.This time Argentina was invited by France to play a friendly match, and this strong duel naturally attracted a lot of attention.

Of course, the fans still focus more on the Argentine national team. This is just an ordinary friendly match, but it has written a strong stroke in the history of Pampas football in later generations.

The cause of the incident was that the reporters searched through Argentina's roster this time, but none of them saw Riquelme's name.This is really abnormal. You must know that after Maradona, the leader of Boca Juniors has always been the core midfielder of the Argentine national team.

After five generations of coaches, and he is at ease, we can see his status in the Argentine national team.

But this time he failed the election. Although there were also reasons for him leaving Europe, more people felt a sense of sadness in their hearts.

A new generation is better than the old ones, and the waves behind the Yangtze River push forward the waves ahead!

After Gago joined Real Madrid and gradually became the core of Los Blancos, everyone expected this day, but they did not expect this day to come so soon.

Originally, according to the fans' ideas, the 32-year-old Riquelme would gradually withdraw from the national team after the World Cup in South Africa and hand over the core position to Gago.But what everyone didn't expect was that Gago's peak would come so quickly, so people were caught off guard.

After he won the "Golden Globe Award" and "World Footballer" was officially crowned No.1 in the world, this core issue was completely brought to light.Currently, Gago's reputation in Argentina has reached its peak. According to the nominal survey conducted by "Ole", 70.00% of the people believe that Riquelme should give way to Gago, and let him stop hindering Gago's progress. rose up.

Even many celebrities in the political circles and football circles publicly believe that Gago is the hope of Pampas to spread its wings again, and believe that only under his leadership, the great Pampas can complete its revival!

A small Copa America cannot satisfy Argentina, which has been hungry for 14 years, they need more.Everyone thinks that the most delicious World Cup can only be eaten in Pampas under the leadership of Gago.

Riquelme has been the core for ten years, but he has never won a championship for the team. During the ten years he became the core, Argentine football is still shrouded in darkness. The pain of not having a crown can only be known after tasting it .

And Gago won the championship in the first tournament he participated in representing the national team. Although Riquelme was the core of Argentina in the Copa America in 07, although some people think that Gago is the one who played the best.He alone led the team to eliminate opponents one after another.

Winning the Olympic Games made the fans think that Gago is the incarnation of the champion again. Be it Boca Juniors, Real Madrid, the Argentine national team, or the youth team, as long as he has been in any club, there is no shortage of champions.

Gago's "king" this year made the Argentine national team have to make a choice, and that was to choose him or Riquelme.Even if neither of the two parties has such intentions, the pressure from all sides is forcing the head coach Basile to "abolish Riquelme and establish Gago as the core!"

In addition, Riquelme himself did not live up to expectations. He actually left Europe when he was playing and returned to Boca Juniors, making fans doubt whether he can keep up with the rhythm of European football.

All the reasons combined, Basile made a very wise choice, and removed Riquelme from the squad in this friendly match, and made a test first.If the rebound is not large, then unless something particularly bad happens in the future, Riquelme will never be able to enter the national team again.

The result made him both sad and happy. Among the players of the entire national team, only one Aimar raised objections to the fact that Riquelme was not selected. The Boca department represented by Erme did not have any protests.

Under various undercurrents, Gago, without his knowledge, succeeded Riquelme and became the core of the Argentine national team for the next ten years.

At the beginning of this friendly match, he also began to bear the meaning contained in the name of the Pampas Eagle.

Starting today, the football history of Pampas has opened a new chapter again, and a ray of pure white light has bloomed in the darkness above!

Ps: The plane was delayed for an hour and a half today, and I got home late, so there is only one chapter, but it will definitely break out tomorrow, and the chapter four will be released first, otherwise I am afraid that I will be lazy again!
