Although Jose won a great victory in the newspapers, Mallorca's next achievements are not as invincible as Jose's verbal battle...

In the seventh round of the league, Atletico Madrid challenged Atletico Madrid away. Although Etoo and Kaka each scored one goal, Mallorca's former players Ibagasa and Moreno also scored two goals. Mallorca tied a two-to-two away game with Atletico Madrid.

In the third round of the Champions League, Mallorca challenged Ajax away. Beletti assisted and shot in the penalty area to help Mallorca score the first record. Then Mallorca maintained the lead until the 80th minute. However, Swedish striker Ibrahimovic scored a beautiful scorpion swing in the penalty area, and tied the score again!

Mallorca suffered three consecutive draws in the Champions League, but AC Milan was not much better. They were beaten by Bruges at home. The points of this group were extremely chaotic after three rounds. Mallorca remained unbeaten with three points and ranked last, while the other three teams were one win, one draw and one loss. Due to the goal difference, Ajax ranked first, AC Milan ranked second, and Bruges ranked third...

"Mallorca was beaten back to its original form?" France commented, and other media commented that this group is worthy of being recognized as the death group. Last season's champion and runner-up seemed so embarrassed...

"The biggest problem with Mallorca is that they seem to have lost their enterprising spirit of last season. Yes, their defense this season is actually much better than last season, but the price they paid is the lack of offense and the increase in the number of defenders. Defence is important, but it cannot reduce goals. Last season, Mallorca used offensive tactics to set off a whirlwind in the whole of Europe, but we rarely see this whirlwind this season. They won a lot of goals, but what we see is a team that first stabilizes its defense and then wins with a small number of goals. Of course, we can understand Mallorca's choice, but we are also sad about it. Is the development of football becoming more and more dull?"

"Oh my master, the development of football is getting more and more dull. It was not made by Mallorca's family. Does Mallorca deserve to be foolish and keep fighting and then be hit by others with defensive counterattacks?" Jose muttered depressedly. He was very depressed in the Champions League draw three times in a row. In fact, he was not at the bottom of the group, but the prize for the draw was less than the prize for winning...

Although he is at the bottom, he is only one point away from Mallorca in the group first. Moreover, during this period, Jose has been constantly using rotation to make the players more familiar with new tactics. As long as the next few games are played well, there will still be no big problem in qualifying in the group.

Although the three-middle midfielder tactic is used to strengthen defense, Jose did not think about weakening his offensive ability as a result. Increasing the assists between the two full-backs is a way to make up for it. However, a new tactic naturally takes time to run in, such as the timing of assists between two full-backs, the tacit understanding of the defender's replacement, and the cooperation between the front midfield... This all requires slowly running in through the game. It is not the best one or two games to achieve. Occasionally, a good performance in one or two games does not explain the problem.

However, I really can't make any achievements in the Champions League now. Mallorca just won the Champions League. If she performs poorly in the European arena, especially if she can't even qualify in the group stage, it may be confirmed that she was lucky last season to win the championship. For Jose, this is absolutely intolerable.

The next period of time will be the most important period for Mallorca. In the league, Mallorca will face three opponents in a row - Barcelona, ​​La Coruña and Valencia in a week. After spending this hellish week, he will face Ajax at home in the Champions League!

The next four games, especially the last game against Ajax, must not be missed!

The media paid great attention to Mallorca's home match against Barcelona in the eighth round of La Liga.

These two teams are actually not ranked well now. Mallorca won four wins, two draws and one loss in the seventh round of the league, and ranked fourth in 14 points, followed by Valencia with nineteen points, La Coruña with eighteen points and Real Madrid with sixteen points. Barcelona's performance is worse, with three wins, two draws, two losses and eleven points ranking seventh. What's more serious is that their offense does not seem to have improved at all. They scored six goals in seven games and conceded six goals. Ronaldo seems to have not integrated into the entire team yet, and Franco has not been able to change the situation where Barcelona conceded many goals. Such a result is obviously something that Barcelona fans cannot accept.

Two teams in poor condition met together, but they were still the highlight of this round of league-there was only one reason, Ronaldo came home!

As a player who has won many honors in Mallorca, Ronaldo has always been very popular in Mallorca. Although he left Barcelona this time, he brought so much cash to Mallorca - during the matchup, Mallorca fans will boo him, but off the court, Mallorca fans still love him...

In addition to Ronaldo, Barcelona now has many former Mallorca players - Mota, Franco...

There are also some former Barcelona players in Mallorca, captain Nadal and young player Iniesta...

This is also one of the characteristics of Mallorca. They move frequently and also introduce many players from other teams, including Campo and Etoo who have played for Real Madrid and Romero who have played for La Coruna. Of course, they are more players poached by Jose from other leagues, which is also in line with the characteristics of Mallorca - inclusiveness...

After Ronaldo appeared at the San Mois Stadium, he received warm applause from the fans, and Ronaldo frequently raised his hand to greet the fans. He was still wearing the No. 10 jersey, but it was no longer Mallorca's No. 10, but Barcelona's No. 10.

I don't know if Rijka's intentions were made. In this game, Mallorca's top three old players all appeared. Franco guarded Barcelona's goal. In the first few rounds, Rijka's still chose to trust him instead of using young player Valdes. Gabrie served as right-back on the defense line, Van Bronhorst served as left-back, Puyol and Koku partnered with the center back - Marquis' injury left Rijka's no one available on the defense line - Midfielder Xavi and Gerard served as double midfielder, Mota appeared in the left-front, Quaresma served as right-front, Ronaldo, and Saviola served as single forward alone, and Cruivette was placed on the bench because of his poor condition recently.

Jose also lets two former Barcelona veterans play, goalkeeper Roa, defenders Beletti, Ram, Nadal and Mex, midfielder Sena's left midfielder, Iniesta's right midfielder, Alonso in the center, Kaka serves as the front midfielder, and forward partners are Etoo and Drogba.

Dakota, who has stronger defensive ability, is certainly not just because Iniesta is more familiar with Barcelona players, but Jose wants to use offense to compete with Barcelona!

He wants to prove that even if Ronaldo leaves, Mallorca's attack will never be weakened!

And this game also played a wonderful offensive battle!

Jose does not want to defend, and Barcelona, ​​which lacks strong midfielders and defenders, cannot defend!

Under this circumstance, the two teams began to play vigorous offensive tactics, and both sides fought fiercely on both wings and in the middle!

After a game, both sides suffered losses.

From the beginning of the game, both sides launched a fierce attack. Mallorca mainly looked for opportunities from both wings. Ram and Beletti both pressed heavily and kept kicking from the middle to find Drogba. Although Puyol and Koku were both very brave players, they were at a disadvantage in height and it was quite difficult to defend Drogba.

However, it was Barcelona who was the first to win the lead.

Gabri, who assisted forward, still flashed a pass gap under Ram's defense. Under Ram's interference, he still made a beautiful cross. The ball hit Mex who was returning to defense and changed direction. Saviola quickly got the ball in the penalty area, and then shot first before Nadal assisted the defense. Roa fell to the ground and the ball flew into the goal from his armpit!

After scoring the goal, Saviola ran excitedly. Barcelona has not scored many goals this season. Among the six goals so far, two of Cocu, one of Luis Enrique, two of Ronaldo, and one of Mota, none of them were scored by the forwards. This puts the Barcelona strikers under too much pressure. Saviola's goal is the first goal scored by Barcelona strikers in the league this season!

After conceding the ball, Mallorca immediately launched a tide of attack!

Because he didn't defend Gabrie and let him score a cross, Ram created a corner kick after an assist. Alonso took the corner kick. Mex, who assisted forward, beat Koku and headed the ball to regain the score!

Mallorca, who quickly equalized the score, boosted his morale and quickly overtook the score. Iniesta and Alonso Kaka, who had assisted, played two-by-one consecutive matches, then broke into the penalty area, picked the ball to the back point before Franco attacked, Etoo stepped forward like a cheetah, and then shot the ball into the empty goal before Gabriel and Puyol, and Mallorca overtakes!

However, just three minutes later, Saviola's breakthrough created a direct free kick twenty-five meters away from the goal. Ronaldo took the penalty and scored a free kick with an extremely obvious arc, which caught Roar off guard, leaving the entire Saint-Mois Stadium silent!

After scoring the goal, Ronaldo did not celebrate, but walked back to his half with a smile...

In the first half, the goal battle was like a bamboo between the plum blossoms. In the second half, both sides obviously strengthened the defense a lot, but the offense was still very exciting, which made the fans on both sides still exclaimed...

In the 51st minute, Barcelona took the lead again! Ronaldo's corner kick was snatched by Cocu in front of Mex, and scored the third goal for Barcelona with a close header!

The next time became the time when Mallorca bombarded...

Rijkaard replaced Luis Enrique and young player Galcia to strengthen their defense, but they were still torn apart by Mallorca's attack. After Etoo missed three scoring opportunities, Torres, who came on the bench, became a hero. In the 84th minute, Etoo broke through and shot, Franco took the ball and lost his hand. Torres was quick-eyed and fast-footed, and he scored the first shot before Koku made up...

This focus battle ended in a draw, but just from the offense, this is indeed the most exciting game of this round!

However, for both sides, this point cannot solve their current problems...
