Chapter 153 Is it just a runner?

Drawing Chelsea is not a good draw for Malaga.

Because Chelsea have "solved" the contradiction between their team bosses and coach Villas-Boas-the result is that the five team bosses headed by Terry, Cech, Lampard, Cole, and Drogba The Chelsea team committee won a big victory.

Boas left.

In fact.

A team must have a soul who can set the morale of the army. Chelsea are very lucky. In their golden age, because of the existence of five big men, Chelsea's cohesion has been enhanced, and the iron-blooded spirit and championship temperament have been injected into this team. , so that the rapidly rising upstarts of the Premier League can maintain a high level of competition for a long time.

However, everything needs to be measured. As time goes by, the "Chelsea team committee" has more and more power to speak in the locker room. Standing Committee" powers.

The most typical example of the team committee’s ultra vires is Scolari’s short-lived 7-month trip. British media revealed that there were many contradictions in the blue team during Scolati’s coaching period. Anelka publicly questioned the coach’s ability to win, Drogba Confessing that "days are like years" at Chelsea, especially in the locker room, the power group composed of the "five standing committee members" and Ballack "making waves", Scolari, who cannot speak the language, could not control it at all and had to choose to leave.

The same is true for the conflict between Boas and the bosses in the Chelsea team this time.

Chelsea's Champions League quarter-final opponent is Naples.

result.

The two sides played against each other in the first round.

The souls of Chelsea's five teams all sat on the bench and forced the palace openly.

Chelsea also suffered a [-]-[-] defeat at the San Paolo

This game had to force Abramovich to make a choice.

Whether to choose the five big guys or Boas.

The last one to be sacrificed was of course Boas.

So Boas was fired.

In the second round of the match between the two sides, Chelsea defeated Naples [-]-[-] at home and advanced to the quarterfinals.

therefore.

This draw is not good for Malaga.

Chelsea is difficult to play, especially this kind of team known for its solid defense, especially good at knockout games.

In addition, Malaga is a team that is obviously stronger in offense than defense.

Under the premise that Chelsea has resolved its own internal power struggle, and under the condition that the five leaders of the team committee completely rule the Chelsea dressing room.

The fighting power of Chelsea's team is terrible.

"Chelsea is difficult to play, of course, I agree with this, but which team is good to play in the quarter-finals?" Ye Luo said when facing the microphones of reporters at the entrance of the training base.

The first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals will not start until March 3.

There are still 20 days left.

During this period, Málaga have four league games to play.

They are league No.20 away to challenge Valencia in four rounds.

League No.20 played against Sevilla at home in the fifth round.

League No.20 will play Racing Santander at home in the sixth round.

League No.20 played Granada at home in the seventh round.

Two consecutive games against rivals Sevilla and Valencia at the top of the standings.

This is a big challenge for Malaga, of course, for Barcelona and Real Madrid, this is a good opportunity to catch up with Malaga.

On March 3, Malaga's away game against Valencia and Real Madrid's away game against Atletico Madrid started almost at the same time. Before that, Barcelona defeated Zaragoza at home and ended this round of the league early. In the first round of the game, Barcelona temporarily topped the standings.

For Malaga or Real Madrid, this game cannot be lost, or even tied.

As the league gradually reaches the middle and late stages, the changes in the points ranking at this time are likely to eventually affect the ownership of the league champion.

"Real Madrid ahead?!"

At the Mestalla Stadium, the home of the Bat Corps, Pellegrini had just shaken hands with the opponent's coach Emery. Before his butt was hot, he heard the bad news from his assistant Malosca.

"C Ronaldo scored, a corner kick in the first minute of the game." Maloska shook his head and said.

"Damn it"

Pellegrini shook his head.

Madrid derby!

Atletico Madrid's defense at home this season is very good. Why can't they defend against Real Madrid?
And Valencia is not an easy opponent to deal with. They are also under pressure to compete for the top four, and unlike Malaga's two-lane battle, Valencia is now focused on the league.

In order to deal with this game, even if there was a Champions League match in the middle of last week, Pellegrini did not dare to make a rotation. He sent his strongest lineup.

Compared with last week's mid-week starting list, there is only one personnel change adjustment.

It was center Ruud van Nistelrooy who started, and he replaced Joaquin, who was too physically exhausted.

Baptista, who can play in the midfield, went back to play in the midfield, and Isco continued to pull the side.

Rule this out.

Malaga has indeed played with all the main players.

But just after a Champions League consumption, Malaga's players didn't seem very excited.

This made Pellegrini vaguely worried.

It turns out.

Pellegrini's concerns are well-founded.

In the 204th minute of the game, Valencia, who played at home, scored the first goal.

Center forward Soldado headed the ball into Malaga's goal after receiving a cross from the wing. This goal detonated the entire Mestalla stadium.

The Valencia commentator on the commentary seat was shouting Soldado's name.

Speaking of which, Soldado and Ye Luo also had unilateral grievances-although Ye Luo never cared about this.

But now after scoring the goal, Soldado also seemed to let out a bad breath and celebrated very wildly.

On the sidelines, Pellegrini frowned.

This conceded goal doubled the pressure on him.

The league championship is too much a test of mentality.

Even Pellegrini couldn't help cursing at this time.

Until the end of the first half.

Malaga failed to score against Valencia's goal.

Valencia, who played at home, ended the first half with a score of [-]-[-].

And Malaga had no choice but to accept this reality.

And on the other side.

The score was zero to one.

Real Madrid, who played away, took the lead.

At halftime.

Real Madrid assistant coach Faria told Mourinho the good news.

"Are they behind?!"

Mourinho was very excited.

Faria nodded: "Yes! They conceded the goal! Now Emery's team is leading!"

Mourinho couldn't help but clenched his fist.

If this game is Real Madrid wins, Malaga loses.

Then Real Madrid will occupy the top of the standings, with Malaga two points behind Real Madrid and one point behind Barcelona.

In the critical period of the championship, regaining the top position in the standings is a great incentive for Real Madrid players!
The second half.

Easy to fight again.

Of course, Malaga, which was behind, launched a fierce attack on Valencia's goal in the first place.

but.

What everyone didn't expect was that.

It was Valencia who scored first in the second half.

Game No.409 minutes,

Valencia got the chance to counterattack.

Valencia's No. 7 winger Jonas dribbled the ball from the left and then made a cross. The football hit the ground and passed near the arc of the penalty area. Valencia veteran midfielder Albelda pushed the ball and pushed the ball into the dead corner.

"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

"This game may become the turning point of Malaga's season. Yes, Pellegrini still played a Champions League game in the middle of the week. Nine and 10 minutes of Malaga's main players were sleepwalking in this game. They walked heavily and looked tired. At the Mestalla Stadium, the price of such performance is what it is now. Malaga must A choice has been made, they want both the league and the Champions League, so greed is no good! Malaga is not yet at the point where they can win on both fronts!"

"Valencia is not a persimmon, Pellegrini and Malaga have to pay the price for their greed!"

The telecast gave close-ups of several Malaga players.

In the TV screen, most of the Malaga players looked a little confused, and couldn't believe that they were two goals behind.

"The impact of the Champions League is starting to appear, and this problem has no solution for Malaga."

Andres, the narrator of Kobe Radio, shook his head regretfully.

He was feeling sorry for Ye Luo.

With Ye Luo's performance, it would be a pity if the four players are still empty in Malaga this season.

but
He's still pretty young.

After this season.

Malaga will definitely not be able to keep Ye Luo anymore.

For Ye Luo.

In his career, there will certainly be no shortage of champions.

"Two to zero! Valencia leads Malaga by two goals at home, and at the Calderón Stadium, Real Madrid is still leading by one to zero. If it ends with this score, Malaga will be eliminated from the league points. After being pulled down from the top of the table and suddenly dropped to third place in the league, this season's championship battle is no longer a rivalry between Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​but how long can Malaga last?"

"Malaga conceded again!!"

The away coach's bench at the Calderón Stadium.

Faria's tone was a little excited, and he excitedly told Mourinho the good news.

Mourinho was smiling.

The smile wasn't just because Malaga were two goals down.

More because now Real Madrid has taken control of the situation.

Atletico Madrid is good at counterattacks, but Real Madrid shrinks in the backcourt after the first goal, waiting for Atletico Madrid to attack, and Atletico Madrid is not good at this. If they dare to press up, Real Madrid's counterattacks are not vegetarian.

"The second half of the league is the real test for the champion!"

Mourinho said with a smile.

He was even in the mood to cross his legs.

He admitted that Malaga's main lineup is strong, and Ye Luo is also strong.

But the championship of the league is not a matter of one or two games.

That's 38 games!
The later in the league, the greater the pressure on the championship team, and the higher the requirements for the thickness of the team's bench.

in this regard
Malaga have neither the championship experience to deal with this pressure.

There is not enough thickness of the bench.

Mourinho believes.

I just need to keep putting pressure on Malaga. The possibility of this team collapsing in the final stage is very high. That is to say, the real opponent this season is Barcelona.

As for Malaga?
They are very nice.

but.
The final champions will not be them!

They are just runners.
