Chapter 724 Team and Individual (please subscribe for the first update!)

Vukojevich shook his head helplessly.

This game was played very passively, especially after Suker scored, Lyon's overall rhythm began to collapse.

Since being reversed by Suker in the last game, Lyon has also had some mental problems.

Although it seemed very stable, everyone was extremely anxious inside.

They desperately want to score goals and desperately want to win the game.

However, due to excessive aggressiveness, the offense failed to achieve its original effect, and many problems also occurred in defense.

"Congratulations!"

Seeing Suk coming over, Vukojevich smiled and stretched out his hand.

Suk sighed: "You are really not hurt!"

Vukojevic still fought hard, but showed no signs of injury.

But his muscle loss and physical fitness can also be felt. For this reason, Suker is worried that Vukojevic will be injured in a few weeks or months.

"Don't worry." Vukojevich smiled; "I will take care of myself."

Suk shook his head; "Forget it, don't force it anyway!"

After saying that, Su Ke said with a smile: "We have made it to the quarterfinals of the Champions League, a total of three people, me, Luca and Srna. If you hadn't met us, you would probably have advanced."

The players of this generation in Croatia are improving very quickly, and their performance in their respective teams is also extremely outstanding.

Suker is at Real Madrid.

Modric is at Manchester United.

Srna is at Inter Milan.

Except for Real Madrid, which is currently reaching its limit, the other two teams have the ability to compete for the Champions League.

Listening to Suk's words, Vukojevich's face became a little strange.

"Have you forgotten Tommy?"

"What?"

Su Ke was stunned for a moment.

Vukojevic shrugged: "Yesterday's game, CSKA Moscow defeated Sevilla to advance to the Champions League quarterfinals."

I saw him holding up four fingers: "That's four! In addition to the three of you, Tommy also entered the Champions League quarter-finals."

Suk was stunned.

He really didn't think about Duimovich's problem, or in other words, his subconscious just passed by him.

Even though Duimovich has been playing for CSKA Moscow for two years, Suker still does not equate the two.

The top eight of the Champions League are all confirmed, namely Inter Milan, Manchester United, Real Madrid, Bordeaux, CSKA Moscow, Barcelona, ​​Arsenal, and Bayern Munich.

At ten o'clock in the evening, Suker, Ramos, Marcelo, Benzema, Di Maria and others gathered together to watch the draw ceremony.

"I feel like it's hard to kick anyone!"

Marcelo couldn't help grinning.

"Bordeaux and CSKA Moscow are the best teams. Their offensive intensity is relatively weak compared to other teams."

Ramos frowned.

This is Real Madrid's current predicament.

The defense is too tight!

Once the opponent is very good at attacking, their defense will be unstoppable.

If the opponent is very good at defense, such as Inter Milan, Suker may also encounter restrictions.

Therefore, Real Madrid is now stuck in a very uncomfortable position.

It's easy to say that the top 16 will pass after a hard fight.

But in the quarterfinals, after experiencing two rounds of home and away knockout rounds in the Champions League, the overall fighting spirit and state have further improved.

Real Madrid encountered many problems during this period, such as coaching changes, tactical reorganization, rigidity of the main lineup, etc.

These seemed to tell them that they couldn't go far.

"What do you think?" Casillas asked.

Su Ke crossed his arms, stared at the TV, and said casually: "Just take it one step at a time, and go as far as you can. Anyway, our goals this season are the King's Cup and the league, and we can compete in the Champions League if we can. If you are eliminated, come back next season!”

Real Madrid currently has many problems.

The first to bear the brunt is the defense.

With the departure of Pellegrini, Ramos' transformation plan has also been put on hold.

There are also problems with offensive advancement, which may require the arrival of Kaká to be resolved.

Di Maria is unable to invest in the Champions League. Although he is still very immature, he has begun to take effect in the league and the Copa del Rey.

Many things need to be further adjusted. It can only be said that Pellegrini wasted too much time.

Perhaps, we can only wait until next season, after Mourinho arrives, for Real Madrid's defense to take on a new look.

Real Madrid's current defense problem is indeed too difficult, and even top coaches may not be able to clean up this mess.

But in the original time and space, Mourinho was the key figure in transforming Ramos, and at the same time created a first-class defense for Real Madrid that could be called top-notch.

Therefore, Suker believes that Real Madrid may have to wait until Mourinho arrives before Real Madrid can further demonstrate its combat effectiveness.

This season, Real Madrid has stumbled along the way.

There was another coaching change and Pellegrini left. This made the locker room more stable, but the fundamental problem based on the first team was not solved.

Everyone looked at the TV and looked at the grouping.

For Real Madrid, as long as they don't draw Inter Milan, Bayern Munich, Manchester United and Barcelona, ​​they may advance.

Among them, Arsenal is also difficult to play.

Therefore, the answer is obvious, Bordeaux and CSKA Moscow are the best choices.

"Look!"

Everyone saw the Real Madrid team logo pulled out from the TV.

"coming!"

Everyone immediately became nervous.

Currently, the teams that have not yet been drawn are Inter Milan, Bordeaux and CSKA Moscow.

For Real Madrid, as long as it's not Inter Milan.

Soon, Real Madrid's opponents appeared.

Black and white shield crest.

A team from Ligue 1, Bordeaux!

In the locker room, everyone was quiet for a moment, and the next second, they were boiling.

Sign it!

Definitely a top pick!

Compared with Inter Milan and CSKA Moscow, Bordeaux's overall strength is the weakest.

For Real Madrid, this opponent can better cope with the Champions League quarter-finals and have a greater probability of going further in the Champions League.

Finally, the Champions League quarter-finals spots emerged.

Bayern Munich VS Manchester United.

Real Madrid vs Bordeaux.

Inter Milan VS CSKA Moscow.

Barcelona VS Arsenal.

"Lady Luck favors Real Madrid, and the Champions League quarter-finals are signed!" 》

"Real Madrid successfully avoided Inter Milan and faced Bordeaux, a team from Ligue 1! 》

"After Lyon, Bordeaux may be attacked by Real Madrid!" 》

"Suker is equal to the Ligue 1 killer?" 》

"A breakdown of the French Ligue 1 teams that were eliminated by Suker in those years. 》

Real Madrid's signing this time is very good. Bordeaux is the weakest team in the Champions League in terms of overall strength.

Of course, Bordeaux cannot be underestimated if they can reach the quarterfinals of the Champions League.

What's more, in the group stage, Bordeaux defeated Bayern Munich and Juventus and entered the knockout round as the group leader.

Before Christmas, Bordeaux's performance was full of wonders.

They did not lose a single game in the six rounds of the Champions League group stage, with an excellent record of 5-1-0.

However, after entering the knockout rounds, they stumbled against Olympiacos in the Champions League quarter-finals. After a 1:1 draw at home, they barely scored a goal in the 89th minute on the road to advance to the next round.

Compared with their outstanding performance during the group stage, they became a little acclimated after entering the knockout rounds.

This is also a characteristic of many grassroots teams.

It is easy to have symptoms of acclimatization in the Champions League.

In the group stage, we were able to let go and dare to fight hard, but after entering the knockout rounds, we faced a lot of pressure, but we couldn't let go.

This also caused the problem of shrinking overall strength and status.

This is also the biggest difference between wealthy teams and grassroots teams when facing the Champions League.

For example, Real Madrid has an unstable lineup and does not even have a corresponding tactical system.

But the vast majority of the players in the lineup have rich experience in the Champions League, and there are many Champions League champions among them. They know very well how to adjust their status in the Champions League, and they can even actively help the team make adjustments. This is also the heritage of a wealthy club. one.

Having just undergone a coaching change, Real Madrid's situation is a bit bad, but Bordeaux may be even worse.

"For us, this is a new challenge. Every victory we get is a new team history, not to mention being able to face such a strong opponent as Real Madrid in the Champions League. We will win in this game. Gaining a lot of experience, just like what we achieved in the 2007/08 season, I believe we can play more exciting games."

The Bordeaux head coach talks in front of the camera.

His words inevitably reveal some useful information.

First: Bordeaux will compete in the Champions League. Although the attitude is very low, it is full of challenge.

Second: Bordeaux adopts a learning attitude, which shows that it has absorbed a lot of tactics before and may come up with some new routines and lineup combinations in the game.

Third: Bordeaux still has ambitions to continue advancing, and they will not be eliminated by Real Madrid.

Bordeaux was the French Ligue 1 champion in the 2008/2009 season, breaking Lyon's seven-year Ligue 1 title monopoly in one fell swoop.

Especially in the 2007/2008 season, after they learned enough experience in the Champions League, they fed back this experience into the league, and then they showed wonderful performance in the next season.

Among them, there is even more like Bordeaux forward Shamach, who challenges Suker.

Although he did not directly express his attitude towards the challenge, he always compared his own data with Su Ke's, looking very proud and irritated.

"Who is this guy!"

Suk didn't know Shamach at all and had never heard of him.

Staring at his fame and influence, there are so many players challenging him, how could Su Ke remember every one of them.

"Schamacher, last season was his best season, and it was also the season when Bordeaux won the Ligue 1 championship." Benzema briefly introduced.

Suker asked; "How many goals did he score in the season?"

Benzema blinked: "It seemed like 13 last season!"

Su Ke blinked: "Champions League?"

"League!"

Suk rolled his eyes and turned away.

After joining the five major leagues, he scored more than 13 goals in a single season.

You can challenge yourself with anything, but Su Ke doesn't even bother to respond to this kind of data.

"Bordeaux is a team with a relatively balanced offense and defense. Although they don't have too outstanding offense and defense, they have stability."

Real Madrid interim coach Ledep explains the opponent's situation.

Suk looked at Ledepu's explanation and finally understood.

In other words, the offense is not enough and the defense is not enough. Stability is stability, but once there is a problem in one aspect, the stability will be destroyed.

"This is their general situation. In previous losses, many problems occurred in the defense line first, which then affected the overall situation. It is difficult for them to make effective changes when facing such emergencies!"

Ledepp's idea is very simple, that is to rely on Suker's impact to continue to press the opponent's defense and force the opponent to make mistakes.

This is also the way Real Madrid is best at winning.

"Okay, let's stop talking about the Champions League. We have to prepare for the next league game."

So far, the league has reached the 27th round.

Real Madrid's record is 24-2-1, ranking second in the league standings.

Barcelona leads the standings with 25-1-1.

There is currently a two-point gap between the two teams, but their positions have been swapped, with Real Madrid chasing Barcelona.

Now it's become Barcelona who can't make any mistakes.

What's more, Barcelona will face Atletico Madrid in this round, an opponent who gave them a draw at the beginning of the season.

And under the pressure of the Champions League, even Guardiola feels a headache.

When he was chasing Real Madrid before, he didn't feel so uncomfortable, but now the situation has been reversed, and he is being framed.

March 26, the 28th round of La Liga.

Getafe plays Real Madrid at home.

"Attack it! Attack it! Don't delay!"

Ledepp shouted loudly from the sidelines.

The main reason is that Real Madrid's offense is difficult to develop on both wings.

Benzema and Higuain faced Getafe's fierce resistance and even brutal foul tactics. Their breakthroughs were no longer so sharp, but became dragging.

This also made it difficult for Real Madrid to attack.

Su Ke was waiting for the ball in the middle, but he waited left and right but couldn't wait!

Suk slowly stopped, feeling helpless.

Benzema and Higuain both have concerns.

Their concern is very simple, that is the World Cup that is about to start.

They must ensure their condition and health to face the World Cup. For this reason, they do not want to be injured at this juncture and the breakthrough will become delayed.

Getafe also took note of the situation of the Real Madrid players and increased the fouling intensity.

He looks like he's about to knock you down.

Although football is a team sport, everyone is an individual with their own ideas and interests.

For Benzema and Higuain, the most important thing at this stage is to avoid injuries and prepare for the World Cup.

With the Champions League out of sight, they will naturally make this choice.

After all, the World Cup comes only once every four years!

If you participate less once, whether you will have a chance the second time is a question.

In this case, Real Madrid's offense will not be able to play.

In 45 minutes, Real Madrid finally defeated Getafe 0:0 and entered the halftime break.

"What are you doing? The offense is too delayed. Don't always pass the ball laterally, pass it forward!"

Casillas roared in the dressing room, he was so angry.

"I know what you are thinking, and I also know what the World Cup means to you, but if you give up now, can you really succeed in the World Cup?"

"There is a problem with your current professional attitude. I don't want my club teammates to be such selfish people, giving up the interests of the team for their own interests!"

Casillas' words are very serious.

He didn't mention anyone by name, but it also made Benzema and Higuain somewhat embarrassed.

The whole locker room was very dull.

Su Ke suddenly said: "I agree with the captain's point of view. We cannot give up now because of the World Cup, not to mention that we are only two points away from the championship! If I are asked to give up here, I will not be willing to do it. If the offense is playing If you don’t go up, you’ll have to replace someone else!”

After saying that, Su Ke looked at Ledepu, who nodded very cooperatively.

At this time, Benzema and Higuain were a little panicked.

In particular, Ledep asked Raul and Di Maria to run out to warm up, as if they were about to be replaced.

They don't want to miss the World Cup, but they also don't want to lose their spot as Real Madrid's main force.

Looking at the expressions of the two people, Su Ke understood that the knocking plan was successful.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought.

"Real Madrid's offense has undergone some changes. Their offense has begun to improve. Although we don't know what happened during the halftime break and what adjustments Ledep made, the effect is still very obvious!"

In the 77th minute, Benzema suddenly pulled the ball in a V-shape, shook off the defense, and began to move towards the rib area.

At the same time, Marcelo started to edge.

Benzema passed the ball to Marcelo, who kicked it directly to the center.

Suk jumped high in the crowd.

"Suk! Head the ball to the goal!"

Suk stretched his body as much as possible in the air and raised his arms to protect himself while controlling his balance.

While moving sideways in the air, Su Ke exerted force on his abdomen and shook his head suddenly towards the ball.

The ball flew far to the right.

With a swish sound, it entered the net!

In the 77th minute, Real Madrid relied on an attack initiated by Benzema, and Marcelo stepped forward to assist Suker to score.

"Goal!!!! Suk!!!"

"Wonderful header. After a stalemate for more than 70 minutes, it was Suker who scored the goal that broke the deadlock."

"It is difficult for Getafe's defense to restrict Suker like this. Even if they send a certain amount of defensive force to constantly interfere with Suker, they cannot completely deprive Suker of his performance."

"Real Madrid scored the first leading goal on the road!"

"Real Madrid is making solid progress in its pursuit of the championship!"
