Chapter 106 Real Madrid isn't that strong? [Fourth update]

Zidane actually attaches great importance to this game.

European Super Cup.

The battle of kings of Europe.

Real Madrid failed in La Liga last season.

If the team hadn’t exploded and won the Champions League.

It can be said that Zidane's first season as Real Madrid coach was definitely not a success.

this season.

Except for the Champions League games.

Another important task for Zidane is to lead Real Madrid to regain the La Liga title.

This European Super Cup is Real Madrid's first game before the start of the new season.

Although the team's top star Cristiano Ronaldo sprained his knee at the beginning of the European Cup final, causing him to miss the game.

But all other Real Madrid main players have returned.

Bale, Benzema, Modric, Kroos, Casemiro, Ramos, Varane
These key players are available.

His original plan was to defeat Monaco and let the team win a European Super Cup before the start of the new season, to get off to a good start, build confidence for the team and get the new season off to a good start.

As a result, he watched the game where Monaco beat Paris Saint-Germain 4-1.
He discovered that this opponent might be stronger than he had imagined, and much stronger.

If the players were like him, playing this game with the idea of boosting their confidence against Monaco.

Real Madrid could well suffer a defeat that would dampen their confidence.

therefore.

Zidane's research on Monaco has become more in-depth.

He listed several key players.

Sunshine, Mbappe, Bernardo Silva.

This is Monaco's offensive trident.

This is definitely the one that needs special attention.

And their midfield.

Fabinho, Bakayoko, Lemar.

This is a very tough midfield combination.

Strong running and blocking abilities.

This means that Monaco will have many opportunities to play transition offense during the game - they are very fast and the sunny player in the middle has superb scoring ability!

However, Monaco is not without its shortcomings.

This is a typical team with strong offense but weak defense.

Relatively speaking.

Real Madrid's lineup is much more balanced, and every position is world-class.

Just pay more attention to Monaco's front trident.

At the same time, avoid giving the opponent too many transition offense opportunities.

It shouldn't be a big problem for Real Madrid to win this game.

"We have to pay attention to defense and not push the formation too high... To a certain extent, the opponent's attacking style is similar to ours, both of which are completed through rapid advancement on the wing, so we should not give them this opportunity and at the same time we need to play with speed on the wing."

Zidane tells his players his plan in a tactical meeting.

But looking at the expressions of the Real Madrid players, he knew what these guys were thinking.

The European Super Cup is just a little dessert for the Champions League champions.

Can Monaco be compared with Real Madrid?

The players of Real Madrid didn't take Monaco seriously at all.

Zidane took in the players' expressions.

End of the meeting.

The players walked out of the meeting room.

His assistant David Bertoni glanced at Zidane and said, "Zidane, are you being too cautious?"

Zidane shook his head and said, "I wish we were more cautious. Do you know the sun?"

Betony shook his head.

"I was his head coach for two seasons," Zidane said. "It took him less than a year to go from a center forward with nothing to his body to such an all-round center forward. I wonder if this guy has been transformed by a machine at this speed."

Bertoni smiled: "Well, this is indeed a guy worth noting, but we are Real Madrid. Even if Cristiano is not there, we still have attackers such as Bale, Benzema, Asensio and Vazquez."

Zidane rubbed his head and said: "They are also very good, but I always feel that they are different from Yang."

Real Madrid players returned to the locker room.

Everyone talked to each other about various topics.

The only thing that was not discussed was their opponents in the European Super Cup.

When everyone was getting ready to leave, someone finally remembered to pay attention to their opponents.

"Hey, Martin. You and Sunshine were teammates, right? How was he?"

Martin Odegaard, a nobody in the locker room, raised his head and found that the person who came to ask him questions was actually the team captain Ramos.

"Uh, Captain, Yang is very strong."

"Of course I know he's very strong. I mean his technical characteristics. Do you understand?"

Odegaard smiled bitterly: "I understand the Yang in the past, but the Yang in the past and the Yang now are completely different."

Ramos hasn't spoken yet.

Benzema started yelling: "Okay, okay, don't talk about the Chinese. We just need to play the game and destroy them with offense."

The Real Madrid players in the locker room did not continue the topic after hearing this.

They all knew that Benzema was a little unhappy with Sunshine - because there were frequent news reports in the media recently about Real Madrid pursuing Sunshine.

Many media said that if Sunshine joined Real Madrid, Benzema would lose his starting position.

This made the French feel very uncomfortable.

He also felt unhappy with the name Sunshine.

Odegaard saw these stars talking.

I am a nobody in the reserve team and I can't get a word in.
Considering that in the new season, I would most likely play for the B team again, it would be impossible for me to get any chance in the first team.

And Sunshine is about to appear in the Champions League with Monaco.

Odegaard felt a sense of urgency in his heart.

"Maybe I should go for a loan?"

he thought to himself.

[Marca]: European Super Cup, the defending champions of the Champions League set sail for the new season!
When Real Madrid flew to Norway.

[Marca] made a forward-looking analysis of this battle between the kings of Europe.

They naturally think that Real Madrid is the dominant side. Monaco is strong, but not good enough to compare with Real Madrid.

The Spanish media is generally optimistic about the game.

And in China.

The domestic media are also very excited about this game.

Because Sunshine will compete with Real Madrid on the same field, and may even be able to score against Real Madrid!

Real Madrid.

The richest family in the world.

This status is not comparable to that of ordinary teams.

Even CCTV Sports Channel has announced that it will broadcast this match live.

This shows how popular it is in the country.

Before the game starts.

The Chinese reporters in the media seats were expressing their feelings when they got Real Madrid's starting lineup.

"Even if Ronaldo is injured, Real Madrid's starting lineup is world-class!"

"Bale, Benzema, Asensio, Modric, Kroos and Casemiro behind them."

"Among the defenders, Carvajal, Varane, Ramos and Marcelo, who can break this defense?"

"Zidane seems to take the game very seriously. This is the full lineup of the main players. It looks like it will be difficult for Monaco to win."

"I just hope Yang Guang can score a goal. The first Chinese player to score against Real Madrid! This gimmick... is worth doing."

"Haha."

Lakendale Stadium.

Visibly, there are far more fans wearing white jerseys than Monaco fans wearing red and white jerseys - this is Norway, and there are not many Monaco fans locally.

Real Madrid's fans are all over the world.

You can see it everywhere. In terms of club size.

Monaco and Real Madrid are not on the same level.
But wait until the game starts.

Real Madrid players felt the pressure.

The game started not long ago.

Real Madrid took the lead in the attack. Bale cut inside and shot from long range, but was caught by Subasic, who then ran directly to the wing.

Mendy takes the ball.

He passed the ball to the midfielder Fabinho.

As soon as Fabinho got the ball.

Monaco had four players rushing forward in the frontcourt.

Mbappe, Sunshine, B Silva, Sidibe.

Mbappe stayed close to the sideline, creating width.

Seat B attacked towards the right flank.

Full-back Sidibe also ran forward along the sideline with his head covered.

Originally, Real Madrid was just launching a tentative attack.

They didn't expect to look back.

Monaco didn't even try to test the enemy and directly launched a fierce attack!

Real Madrid fans in the stands exclaimed.

They also saw the danger.

"Lemar received the ball, he passed it forward, and right-back Sidibe got the ball!"

"Damn it!" Real Madrid goalkeeper Navas got ready, ready for battle.

Marcelo was returning to defense at high speed. He had previously focused on defending B Silva, but now the opponent's full-back was coming up, and his teammate Asensio in front of him had not come back yet - Asensio rushed into the opponent's penalty area during the attack, so there was no way he could get back now.

Marcelo finally caught up with Sidibe, but Sidibe had no intention of challenging the Brazilian full-back alone, so he immediately passed the ball diagonally to B Silva.

B seat dribbles horizontally.
At this moment.

Monaco fired all its arrows.

On the Real Madrid side, except for midfielder Casemiro who returned to the top of the arc to protect the defense line, none of the other Real Madrid players had time to run back.

This is a very dangerous situation for Real Madrid.

Yang Guang pressed Ramos and created space for B Silva.

"Don't let him shoot!"

Ramos roared behind the sun.

Casemiro pounced.

Seat B passed the ball directly to Yangguang.

Behind Yangguan is Ramos.

The Real Madrid captain is very famous.

He was once known as the world's best central defender.

Sunshine is excited.

The world's best centre-back, right?
I'll try your portion.

He had already thought about what to do before he caught the ball.

Before catching the ball, he leaned back suddenly.

Ramos is known for his frontal defensive ability and physical confrontation ability.

But now he was bullied by Yangguang through physical confrontation.

The back of Yangguang hit him on the head like a hammer, knocking the Spanish center back unconscious and causing him to stagger backwards.

And right now.

Yangguang received the ball, moved it slightly to his left, then half turned around and swept the ball towards the goal with his right foot like a broom.

"Sunshine shot. Navas!!!"

the commentators chanted.

Costa Rican goalkeeper Navas made a brilliant save, falling to the ground quickly and pushing the ball out of bounds.

Yangguang watched the ball roll out of the sideline with regret, and couldn't help but roar to the sky.

Ramos was still in shock.

It was the first time he encountered a center with this number.

The opponent's big body squeezed in the penalty area, received the ball, broke through the defense and shot directly with half a turn.
This is the combination of technique and body.
scary.

Ramos took a deep breath.

He finally understood why the head coach attached so much importance to this Chinese man.

B Silva takes a corner kick.

This time I'll look for a sunny spot.

Yangguang jumped high and headed the ball, but before that, the ball was intercepted by Navas.

Sunshine and Ramos collided in the air.

This time's confrontation.

Ramos still didn't get any advantage. He staggered and fell to the ground when he landed.

But the sunlight ran back as if nothing had happened.

"Why do I feel that Real Madrid's defense is not that strong?"

Yangguang complained to Seat B as he ran back.

Seat B coughed twice.

"That is to say, is there a possibility that you are too abnormal?"

"Really?" Yangguang touched his head, then slammed his fist on his palm: "No matter what, I like this opponent very much, I'm going to kill him!"

After this round of attack and defense.

The Monaco players gained confidence.

They found that although Real Madrid had a big name, its strength did not seem to be enough to crush them.

This discovery made Monaco players extremely excited.

The idea of having a chance to beat Real Madrid has made their fighting spirit unprecedentedly high.

It's like having the chance to have Yifei as your girlfriend for a day.

Then you have to do it hard.

"Sidibe crosses the ball into the sun! Header!!"

the narrator exclaimed.

Yangguang is quite confident when it comes to competing for headers.

This kind of self-confidence is even somewhat arrogant.

He was staring at the ball in the air, his shoulder collided with Ramos, and the opponent fell sideways. He just swayed in the air, still controlling his center of gravity.

Subsequently
boom!
Header!

The football was headed into the goal.

But the referee's whistle also sounded, calling a foul on Yangguang.

"Foul? No, no, no. It's just that he was too light, so it looked like I committed a foul. It was a legitimate collision, and I didn't even open my arms."

Yangguang yelled at the referee.

He patted his shoulder, indicating that it was just a shoulder-to-shoulder collision and it was impossible to be a foul.

Ramos looked depressed when he heard this.
He is the captain of Real Madrid.

When have you ever been told that you are underweight?

Ramos stood up from the ground with a dark face.

Sunshine glanced at the Real Madrid captain.

Is this guy faking a fall?
Sunshine thought.

Ramos looked even uglier when he saw the look in Yangguang's eyes.
Damn it, I was underestimated by this kid!
Ramos took a deep breath.

Gritting his teeth.

Ready to wait for the opportunity of revenge.

Zidane, who was on the sidelines, saw the confrontation between Sunshine and Ramos and was a little confused.

This big center is a threat whenever he stands in the penalty area.

And
Monaco's attack was more fierce than he imagined.
　The fourth update. There are too many things to do today, so I will post another chapter tomorrow.
