Mbappe scored a goal in just three minutes at the opening, and finally defeated Dortmund three to one at home. The score was 6-3, successfully advanced to the UEFA Champions League semi-finals and encountered Juventus.

It is worth mentioning that Mbappe still performed well in the second round. Two goals in the quarter-finals of the Champions League scored three goals. The performance of the French teenager left a very impressive impression. To his limitless prospects.

Especially after Monaco eliminated Dortmund, as a popular rookie of Monaco, Mbappe also defeated Dortmund's rookie Dembele, known as the most promising talented rookie in football today to succeed Yang Yang in the future.

But because of this, Mbappe has also attracted more and more attention and attention from the team.

For Real Madrid, encountering Atletico Madrid is also a good choice, because the two teams are too familiar with each other.

This is the fourth consecutive season that the two sides have met in the Champions League knockout. It can be described as a narrow road. Coupled with the domestic La Liga and Cup, there are always several Madrid derby games played each year.

Real Madrid has the advantage in the battle against each other, plus Atletico's performance this season is not ideal, so Real Madrid is still very confident to win this enemy in the same city.

As for whether they have reached Juventus or Monaco in the Champions League final, Real Madrid are confident.

Therefore, after playing Bayern Munich, both Real Madrid and media close to Real Madrid have full confidence in the prospects of the Champions League this season. Instead, Yang Yang and Zidane constantly remind players when they are inside the team. Focus.

It ’s one thing to have faith, and it ’s another to go all out.

For Real Madrid, only if they go all out and play every game, are they eligible to talk about winning.

…………

On the evening of April 23, the Bernabéu Stadium in Madrid.

In the 33rd round of La Liga, Real Madrid played against Barcelona.

Although this season's La Liga has long lost its suspense, this century Derby still attracts the attention of fans around the world.

The two most expensive teams in the world, and at the same time the most dazzling teams in the world, such a showdown is simply impossible without attracting the attention of the media and fans.

Barcelona is in a bad situation. Head coach Luis Enrique has already announced his departure in advance. He has just been eliminated by Juventus in the quarter-finals of the Champions League. This has put Barcelona under great pressure. However, at this critical moment, Neymar has In the match against Malaga, after receiving a red card, they applauded the fourth official. After the game, two additional bans were added, and a total of three suspensions.

Barcelona appealed before, hoping to allow Neymar to play, but was quickly warned by the Spanish Sports Arbitration Court.

So tonight, the Brazilian king will miss the century derby.

Compared to Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid's performance is still stable.

After winning the Grand Slam for three consecutive seasons, this season it reached the final of the King ’s Cup again. At the same time, the Champions League also advanced to the semi-finals. The La Liga champions were early in the bag, which made everyone have to admire that Real Madrid will also Continue to rule La Liga.

However, there are still many media and fans looking forward to Barcelona's Jedi counterattack, even if this game's victory or defeat has nothing to do with the overall situation.

Not only the outside media and fans attach importance, Real Madrid also attaches great importance to this game, after all, this is a century derby.

After several considerations, Yang Yang and Zidane still adjusted the team's lineup.

Bayern Munich just died in the Champions League, the team consumes a lot, if you continue to play Barcelona, ​​it is really dangerous.

Goalkeeper Kurtua, Marcelo, Ramos, Varane and Carvajal in the back, David Silva, Kanter and De Blaunet in the midfield and Ahain in the frontcourt The combination of Zar, Suarez and Yang Yang.

This looks like four, three, three, but in fact on the court, the trident in the frontcourt is basically flexible.

But what really made Yang Yang and Zidane curious was Barcelona's formation.

It wasn't until an hour before the game that Real Madrid got the Barcelona lineup.

...

Goalkeeper Ter Stegen, Alba, Umtiti, Pique and Roberto, midfielders Iniesta, Busquets and Rakitic, Paco, Suare And Messi.

"It turned out to be Paco." Yang Yang was surprised.

Paco Alcacer, a 23-year-old Spanish international, is a striker and debuted in Valencia's youth training. He has performed well in the past two years and scored double digits, which is the rise of Spain. A rookie started, and was paid by Barcelona last summer for 30 million euros.

In Barcelona, ​​Paco's positioning is a substitute, which can't shake the position of the trident in the frontcourt, but in a few minutes, he still scored an average of 90 minutes and scored a goal, which is really not bad. , But compared to his time in Valencia, it was a bit disappointing.

It is worth mentioning that last summer, Real Madrid and Barcelona have introduced substitutes, Real Madrid is Morata, Barcelona is Paco, but from the performance point of view, Morata has played the best state since his career, Paco 'S performance is relatively sluggish.

"Then it is basically a double striker, Messi retreated and kicked the front waist." Zidane narrowed his eyes and flashed a trace of success.

For Enrique's move, Real Madrid's coaching staff are also well prepared.

"Neymar can't get on, Nabassa's left will be a big problem, especially the left rib. Roberto on the right has Rakitic in front of us. We will try to suppress them." Yang Yang said at the end, showing A confident smile.

There are enough resources in his hand, no matter what the opponent moves, he will not panic.

On the contrary, Enrique, when he saw Real Madrid's lineup, I wonder if he would be shocked?

The three players with the strongest offensive ability in the frontcourt have all come on, but the midfield has been replaced, but Real Madrid has such a bargaining chip.

From the suspension of Neymar, Yang Yang and Zidane began to speculate that Enrique is likely to return Messi to the middle, because Barcelona's middle scene has no advantage over Real Madrid and someone must come in series.

When Neymar is not there, it can only be Messi.

Therefore, Yang Yang and Zidane replaced the entire midfield in one breath. Both David Silva and De Braunie tended to control the ball and attack. Only Kanter was for defense and was against Messi.

This season, Real Madrid's midfielder position has always been Kanter and Casemiro in competition. The two players have different characteristics and adapt to different tactical environments. Among them, Kanter's advantages are his small size, low center of gravity, flexible body, and instant explosive power. Very strong, which is very helpful for steals and one-to-one marking, especially when facing a short offensive player like Messi.

In the same way, Kanter's body is not excellent. He is very disadvantaged when facing a strong center or an offensive player with excellent strength. On the contrary, Casemiro did better at this point. After all, his Physical fitness is there.

In addition, Kanter is characterized by a large range of running and covering, and Casemiro is characterized by a standing position. Passing and catching is also a good game for the Brazilian, but Kanter has a stronger ability to intercept and steal.

It can be said that the two have their own strengths, so that sometimes Yang Yang and Zidane feel that if they are pulled out and form a pair of double waists, it is estimated that they will be unbreakable.

But unfortunately, this tempting idea has not been able to fulfill, because Real Madrid's midfield is too strong.

After a season of polishing, Yang Yang and Zidane also developed different tactical ideas for Casemiro and Kanter. Kanter's defensive ability is excellent, and the success rate of interception and steals is very high. , So Real Madrid often arrange Kanter to play, seize the opportunity to press the defense forward.

Pushing Kanter forward, through his pressure on the opponent's ball player, after the steal in the midfield, he quickly counterattacked.

Real Madrid players are also familiar with this style of play and are no strangers.

And such a set of play, if you change the position of the lower back to Casemiro, the effect will certainly be greatly reduced.

Therefore, for the use of the two midfielders, Yang Yang and Zidane are based on different opponents and different competitive pressures, allowing them to rotate and form a benign competition in the team, it is difficult for anyone to overwhelm anyone.

This competition allowed both Casemiro and Kanter to show a fairly good fighting power.

Not only in the lower back, including Morata, Asensio and Isco, etc., under the team's rotation mechanism, the state has remained quite good, and the overall strength has also been steady.

Facing Barcelona tonight, Yang Yang and Zidane chose Kanter. After seeing Barcelona's lineup, the two smiled at each other, and they both guessed each other's thoughts.

Later, at the mobilization meeting before the team came on stage, Yang Yang and Zidane arranged and arranged for Barcelona's lineup to fine-tune their team's tactics.

For Kanter, Yang Yang and Zidane have only one requirement.
