Chapter 195 Dark Horse Real Sociedad, Fighting for Big Brother!
"Good job, Bai Ran!"
"Go back and have a good rest!"
"Can you give me an autograph? I like you so much!"
"Bai Ran, you are my faith!"
Bai Ran looked up and saw a thin man, a young man of the same age as Bai Ran, looking at him eagerly with a pleading tone, so Bai Ran stood up from the bench and gestured.
"Wait for me at the outer passage after the game."
"Wow..."
The fan was so happy, and the fans next to him were also envious of him!
A sigh came from the audience instantly.
So envious!
Oh my God! Bai Ran agreed to sign for him, and he also wanted to meet him alone?
Who doesn't want to have this kind of treatment!
Bai Ran's behavior of pampering fans also caused a boiling of fans.
However, at this time, the game on the field was not over yet.
After Toni Kroos came on the court, Real Madrid's progress slowed down immediately. They did not pursue a certain effective threat opportunity, but put more experience on ball control and defense.
The more anxious the opponent is, the less likely they are to get the ball. With Toni Kroos in the midfield, Real Madrid's control ability has not weakened.
If we only talk about passing, Bai Ran's ability has obviously surpassed the German midfielder, and if we talk about footwork and physical weight, Toni Kroos is still more suitable at present.
This substitution is too essential. A positional adjustment completely extinguished Villarreal's hope.
Football is a team sport that requires every member of the team to play to their best level.
However, to win the game, not only the players' skills and physical fitness are needed, but also the tacit understanding of the team and the precise execution of tactics.
Therefore, winning a football game is not a simple matter, and the changes in details on the field are also very important.
Sometimes, a simple substitution is enough to change the situation on the field.
Zidane is best at doing such things.
His understanding of tactics and the use of personnel are simply familiar to him, which is why he can discover players like Bai Ran and transform a set of tactics that can be used to fight tough battles based on Bai Ran's characteristics.
Toni Kroos handled the ball calmly on the field, which made the opponent scratch his head. This was too annoying. It would be better if Bai Ran had just attacked and scored a few goals against them!
His presence on the field was a torture for Villarreal!
They could hardly get possession of the ball, and Real Madrid had an absolute dominant position.
Every pass of Toni Kroos was very safe, leaving the opponent with no way to start.
And these passes also showed his skills.
Now James Rodriguez, who was sitting on the bench, was even more depressed.
In the 14th World Cup, the young midfielder of Colombia emerged, became famous with one goal, and announced to the world with a shocking world wave. This teenager came into everyone's vision.
After that, he came to the Bernabeu with high spirits and was expected by everyone.
But the good times did not last long. It has only been a year, and James Rodriguez, who performed a little mediocre, did not seem to be running-in with Real Madrid, but it was still acceptable.
But when Bai Ran joined Real Madrid in 15 years, the team seemed to have no place for him!
Bai Ran's excellent performance made him the new favorite of the Bernabeu. The dependence of his teammates, the support of the players, the clamor of public opinion, and the love of the fans have all contributed to Bai Ran's unshakable position in Real Madrid.
At this moment, Toni Kroos also brought out his best state. Even as a substitute, he was willing to go all out.
This made James Rodriguez a little confused about where to go.
In the second half of the game, Villarreal showed fatigue. Their fight was no longer active and their attack was no longer sharp, which made it easier for Real Madrid to control the situation on the field.
Even in the 88th minute, Toni Kroos found the opportunity to make a long pass, and Benzema took the ball and shot, but unfortunately it was blocked by the goalkeeper.
However, Modric, who followed up at the back point, pushed the empty goal. At this critical moment, the opponent's goalkeeper made two consecutive saves and did not score.
This also became the last threatening attack of the game.
After that, the players on both sides symbolically completed the game, and the referee's whistle sounded, and the game was over.
Real Madrid won three points at home, playing steadily!
They completed the feat of topping the list with one more round to play.
After the game, Real Madrid's big win once again made the headlines in the football world!
"Is the Yellow Submarine's impact on the Champions League worrying? Real Madrid's life-and-death battle 4-0 bloodbathed Villarreal!"
"Young player Bai Ran once again showed unlimited potential, two goals and two assists to VP, where is his limit?"
"The battle between Real Madrid and Barcelona continues, Real Madrid slaughtered the opponent 4-0 and got another three points, the competition in the standings is fierce, and Barcelona's pressure has increased sharply!"
This not only indicates that Real Madrid's points are catching up very closely, but Barcelona's road to the championship is extremely bumpy.
It also means that the teams in the second echelon of La Liga are more enthusiastic.
Yellow Submarine lost to Real Madrid, which means they also have a chance to compete for a place in the La Liga BIG4!
Who doesn't want to play in the Champions League!
Two of the top four teams in this season's Champions League are from La Liga, and this is under the premise that Barcelona and Atletico Madrid will face each other in the quarter-finals.
It can be seen that in this era, La Liga teams are very competitive.
They also want to shine on the entire European stage.
This is an opportunity for glory, no one is willing to give up, even if there are only one or two places, they will fight for it with all their strength.
Athletic Bilbao and Sevilla are all staring at the standings, waiting for their opponents to make mistakes.
After the game, Real Madrid thanked the fans as usual, forming a long line, interacting closely with the fans, and also listening to their suggestions.
Accompanying Real Madrid from the low point at the beginning of the season to the current peak, the enthusiasm of the fans is also one of the indispensable links in Real Madrid's growth.
The fans present were also very excited. Real Madrid has won all the way and has completed a perfect transformation so far.
Zidane's tactical guidance is like a fish in water in this Real Madrid, and it seems very suitable.
Not to mention Bai Ran. Since this kid arrived at the Bernabeu, the entire Real Madrid team has been united, conquering the city all the way, and every player is in high spirits. Although some people are very depressed because they can't play, you have to admit that Bai Ran is there.
They didn't mean to complain to Bai Ran, but they just hated their own incompetence.
Why can a 17-year-old Asian kid do such a magical performance, but they can't?
After the game, the head coaches of both sides were also stopped by the media and interviewed in the passage.
When Zidane was asked about the secret of Real Madrid's good form at the end of the season, Zidane said calmly: "Yes, everyone can see that Real Madrid is thriving now, the players are performing well, and they have their own ideas on the field."
"Sometimes I can just let it go. When there is a different chemical reaction between them, I just need to wait and see."
"If this change is positive, I can even stay silent for half an hour."
"This victory belongs to everyone. Everyone in the team has their own responsibilities. Everything is on the right track. I think Real Madrid's current state is unstoppable, not to mention that we have Bai Ran."
Finally, Zidane specifically mentioned Bai Ran.
This kind of BUG-level player is invincible wherever he is placed. As long as his teammates follow the routine normally, there will be no problem.
The reporter then began to ask: "What is your outlook for Real Madrid's future championship? You should also be paying attention to the Barcelona event. What do you think will be the result at the end of the season?"
Hearing this question, Zidane showed an indescribable expression.
"I won't comment on Barcelona. What you said is not correct. On the contrary, I know very little about Barcelona."
"Although they are our derby rivals, I often study their tactics and strategies, as well as the abilities of their players, and come up with countermeasures."
"But how they operate specifically, you should ask Enrique."
"We at Real Madrid don't like to do things off the field. I want to focus all my energy on the field and on winning every game."
"We just want to win every game. As for other things, it has nothing to do with us."
Zidane walked out of the passage, arrogant, the attitude of a winner.
The other coach looked a little embarrassed.
"Yes, we lost this game, very tragically."
"The opponent is in good shape, and we are unlucky."
"But I think more factors are due to that Asian kid, yes, Bai Ran."
"The deterrence he gave us on the court was too strong, so we lost everything in this contest."
"If he is not there, I think the outcome is still uncertain."
When the reporter talked about the form of striving for the Champions League qualification, the other coach replied: "Although we have lost a game now, as long as we play steadily and win every victory in the future, I think the Champions League quota is still very likely to be born in our hands."
"Fans can start looking forward to our performance in the European war next season."
It seems that their coach is still very optimistic. Even when Real Madrid defeated him 0-4, he can still maintain such a good mentality.
Villarreal deserves to be the top competitor this year besides the La Liga duo and Atletico Madrid.
They are now ranked fifth in the standings, above the Basque legion Athletic Bilbao.
In the next game, the two teams will have another confrontation.
Villarreal still has a good chance to qualify this time.
The next day after the game, Barcelona will face Real Sociedad.
Real Madrid gave the players a day off as usual.
They were divided into two groups this time. The group led by Ramos, Ronaldo and Bai Ran chose to stay at the Real Madrid base to reorganize and watch the game.
On the other side, Marcelo, Danilo and Jesse packed their bags and went to the bar, where they had a few drinks and watched the game.
Barcelona's focus battle is against Real Sociedad. With one round less, they are about to hit the top spot. If something goes wrong in this game, they will be in a state of no return.
The lineup of Real Sociedad should not be underestimated. Although there is no star gathering like Barcelona, there are also strong players such as Bella, Castro and Illarramendi.
And their form this season is pretty good. Even if they miss the Champions League qualification, they are still a certain distance away from the relegation zone.
But in this game, they are fighting for their big brother Real Madrid.
In La Liga, Real Sociedad, which is also in the royal camp, will definitely bring a series of troubles to Barcelona.
Bai Ran also followed the captain to the projection room to watch this game, which is equally important to them.
The two teams competed against each other, and it can be seen that the players of Real Sociedad are in a very good mental state today.
The director's camera came to the lineup of Barcelona.
What made Real Madrid feel a little happy was that Barcelona lacked Neymar today, and their substitute striker Munir started instead.
There were also Spanish Pedro, Turkish bearded Arda Turan, and Ramires on the bench.
It is difficult for such a lineup to launch an explosive attack like Neymar on their left side.
In this game, they are expected to suffer a bit.
In the midfield, they took out the combination of Rafinha, Busquets and Kamara, and Xiaobai's figure was on the bench.
It seems that Enrique made a lot of adjustments in this game.
In the defense line, Pique is still the main force, while substitute defender Bartra is the starter. Fullback Alves did not appear in the starting lineup, and was replaced by Sergio Roberto, the all-rounder in the backcourt.
When Enrique came on the field, his facial expression was very unnatural. It seems that Barcelona has just experienced a locker room storm!
Real Madrid was talking about it.
"They seem to have an internal conflict!"
"Yes, their players and Enrique are not in a good mood. I guess they quarreled. I think it must be because of the game load and substitution adjustment?"
"Now Barcelona has only this situation, there is no way."
Bai Ran glanced over there, and it was Toni Kroos who spoke.
He was right. The problem of Barcelona now is that the bench is not deep enough.
The players on the bench are not at the same level as the starting level. Their rotation of substitutes is equivalent to weakening their strength.
Real Madrid is different. The substitute lineup is also star-studded and luxurious. No matter how Zidane rotates, he has an absolute advantage.
What's more, at the critical moment, he still has Bai Ran as his trump card, so he can rest assured.
But now it seems that under the repeated protests of the players, Enrique can't stand the pressure and took out the rotating substitute lineup.
The game officially started.
Real Sociedad took the lead in serving the ball in the middle circle.
When the Barcelona players saw the faces of the other side, they were instantly shocked and broke out in cold sweat.
Their eyes seemed to want to eat themselves. This is just an ordinary league, which is particularly critical for Barcelona, but it doesn't hurt Real Sociedad.
Is it so?
But Real Sociedad knows that the big brother who protects them in La Liga is Real Madrid. The big brother needs to take action now, so how can they not play well!
It just so happens that Barcelona used a rotating lineup in this game. Isn't this taking advantage of your illness to kill you?
These substitutes of Barcelona don't have much game experience. Seeing such momentum, they softened instantly.
They are also a little scared!
Real Sociedad's actions are also a strong and well-behaved team in La Liga. They are particularly fierce in fighting!
Even Suarez was a little surprised by the fight, and said something next to Messi, while Messi crossed his hands in front of his chest, looking calm and watching the opponent's performance.
The game officially started, and Real Sociedad transferred the ball to the left.
As soon as the ball was kicked out, their players rushed to the opponent's half like a tide.
Their goal today is very clear-to kill Barcelona! We must take a point even if we die!
Seeing this scene, the Barcelona players were in a mess. This is different from the plot they designed before!
Logically speaking, shouldn't Real Sociedad shrink and defend and let others slaughter them?
At this stage of the season, you don't have the pressure of competing for the championship, and you don't need to stay in the league. Do you have to fight so hard!
The players of Real Sociedad shuttled back and forth under the opponent's deployment and quickly found the offensive space.
Outside the center circle, the Real Sociedad midfielder held the ball and passed it to the winger on the side.
The black winger shook his torso, but did not shake off Barcelona's Kamara, so he had an idea and chose to pass it with a kick.
The striker in front had been waiting for a long time, wandering on the offside line for a long time, and finally waited for this excellent opportunity!
The striker was instantly ignited with passion. The ball was passed just right, it would be a pity if it didn't go in!
So he raised his hand and shot a burst of shots. Goalkeeper Bravo was stunned for a moment. The quality was very high, and the shooting action was very hidden.
It's not easy to defend!
Under the attention of everyone, the ball was shot towards the goal, and Bravo did not make any reaction!
Will this ball go in! ?
In the next two seconds, the striker of Real Sociedad sighed in frustration and ran back to his own half with his face covered.
It turned out that the ball just slipped out of the goal and was only one centimeter away from the goal post.
What a pity!
The Barcelona players also breathed a sigh of relief.
It was too thrilling. It was almost scored by lightning.
The game had just started for two minutes, and the opponent's attack was so sharp and threatening. The next game would be difficult to play!
On the field, Busquets, as the core of the team, said loudly to the players: "Slow down the pace!"
"Don't worry, we control the ball!"
"Bravo, pass to the full-back."
They made adjustments step by step, but for some reason, Messi always had an ominous premonition in his heart.
Barcelona has seen this kind of scene many times. Barcelona is no weaker than others in adversity, and reversal is also commonplace.
But today, the players' state seems to be not right...
