Before the game, Messi thought he would become Chu Zhongtian's target again, and he was ready to fight with Chu Zhongtian in the game. Who would have thought that after the game began, Chu Zhongtian's defender was not him. Mourinho handed Messi to Khedira.

Khedira's defensive ability is obviously worse than Chu Zhongtian, and Messi can fully demonstrate his exquisite footwork and extraordinary skills.

The National Derby will never lack the performance moments of celebrities.

Especially players like Messi.

In the twelfth minute of the game, after Messi got the ball in the midfield, he first made a false move to pass the ball to the side, and then suddenly started, dribbled in a horizontal diagonal line. Hedira kicked the ball down, but Messi easily avoided it.

Then Messi faced Alonso and Pepe's defense. At this time, he had already brought the football to the front of the penalty area. This was a very threatening place, so Pepe also rushed out to help defend. Everyone knows that one-on-one words, Messi could hardly defend.

What's more, in Barcelona, ​​he still has so many excellent teammates to support him... So he did not continue to dribble the ball, but directly stuffed the football to Villa who was heading in front, and continued to run diagonally.

Villa was entangled by another Real Madrid centre-back Villa and could not turn around. But he didn't need to turn around. He pressed Carvalho with his hand to come up and intercept the ball, and then knocked the ball back with his heel... "Beautiful!"

The commentator shouted.

He passed the football to Messi again. Messi happened to receive his wonderful pass when he entered the penalty area!

"Barcelona's chance!"

"Relying on Villa as a fulcrum, Messi got the opportunity to break into the penalty area!"

But Messi is not unguarded, and there is a full-back Ramos who catches up next to him.

Ramos was close to Messi and did not allow him to break through or kick easily. At the same time, Pepe also rushed over from the middle. Despite this, Messi still found a chance to shoot. He forced his kick to shoot under the joint defense of Ramos and Pepe!

The football was drawn by him and flew towards the near corner of the goal.

Casillas had blocked the place, and he punched the football with both fists. After shooting, Messi lost his balance and fell to the ground, unable to continue shooting. The football was easily obtained by Di Maria, who was driven back. Real Madrid turned from defense to offense!

This is the moment that Real Madrid fans are most looking forward to, and it is also the moment when Mourinho's football comes into play.

Seeing Di Maria get the ball, C. Ronaldo, Chu Zhongtian and Higuain all turned around and ran forward at the first time.

Unlike the other two, Chu Zhongtian did not run forward, but moved closer to Di Maria.

Di Maria is characterized by being good at dribbling, fast speed, and is a good player in counterattack. But Barcelona's defenders are not vegetarian. If Di Maria has to compete with the opponent one-on-one, he is afraid he will not get any advantage. So Chu Zhongtian ran over to support him. In this way, no matter whether Di Maria chooses to pass or dribble himself, she will have an extra choice, which will bring difficulties to Barcelona's players in defense.

While dribbling, Di Maria looked up at the situation in front of her and glanced at Chu Zhongtian's figure.

This time he did not choose to drive the ball by himself, but passed the football directly to Chu Zhongtian.

Chu Zhongtian slowed down to catch the ball, then turned around and walked towards the middle.

Di Maria continued to run along the side, suppressing Barcelona's full-backs, and did not dare to easily assist in the middle.

Chu Zhongtian didn't drive the ball for too long. He is not a speed player and does not drive the ball quickly. Since he is a quick counterattack, speed should be the first factor to consider.

The Bernabeu sings in the stands, which is Real Madrid fans cheering for their team. This is Real Madrid's counterattack, and they see hope for a goal!

Chu Zhongtian quickly passed the football to C. Ronaldo on the other side.

After passing the ball, he continued to run forward and rushed to the penalty area. This is the difference between a front midfielder and a back midfielder. Rarely, the back midfielder will kill all the way to the opponent's penalty area. After completing the pass, they have to return to their position. However, the front midfielder often rushed to the penalty area to play the role of a killer.

As a front midfielder, although he is a defensive front midfielder, it does not prevent Chu Zhongtian from pursuing goals in the offense.

However, c. Ronaldo did not pass it to Chu Zhongtian, nor to Higuain. Because Real Madrid's counterattack opportunity was too fast, Barcelona's defenders did not return to defense, so Ronaldo faced fewer defensive players. He directly chose to break through into the penalty area and then shoot!

"Cristiano Ronaldo—"

The football flew towards the far corner of the goal.

Valdes also made a wonderful save, and he flew to hit the football out of the bottom line!

"Wow! Both sides have a very exciting offense and defense! This is the national derby! This is the war of the century!"

The commentator exclaimed excitedly.

In fact, just now, Ronaldo passed the football sideways, maybe the chance was better, but as a person who scored forty-nine goals in a single season, it was no big deal to choose to shoot by himself.

So neither Chu Zhongtian nor Higuain expressed any dissatisfaction with C. Ronaldo's choice.

Fans don’t go into these issues in depth. They just need to watch it. It’s obvious that C. Ronaldo’s shot just now made them very happy.

※※※Messi and C. Ronaldo have risen, and neither of them is willing to perform badly after the other side performs well. Both of them are the best players in the world today. Messi is a treasure of Barcelona, ​​while C. Ronaldo is the king of Bernabeu.

Currently, the two are also competing with each other on the La Liga Scoreboard. The two always alternate back and forth in the first place in the Scoreboard.

Currently, C. Ronaldo is temporarily ranked first with fourteen league goals, and Messi is only one goal away from him. This position may be reversed in this game at any time.

Messi won the World Footballer for two consecutive years and stole the limelight from C. Ronaldo, which is unacceptable to the arrogant Portuguese. In private, C. Ronaldo doesn't like Messi. When mentioning Messi in Real Madrid, Ronaldo always uses "shorts" to replace Messi's name.

It can be seen how unhappy he is with Messi.

Now at his home court, Ronaldo's desire to defeat Messi is even more urgent.

He hopes to overwhelm Messi on the league scorer list, and hopes to help the team win, both at the individual level and at the team level.

At the same time, Messi may not hate him as much as C. Ronaldo hates him, but he will never give in to Ronaldo. Any player who reaches their level has a sense of pride that they will not be willing to lose to their opponents.

c. Ronaldo is currently at the top of the scorer list. How could Messi be willing to do it? He only scored two more goals in this game to complete the surpassing. He doesn't think it's a difficult thing. He has already scored eight goals in the league and Real Madrid. He scored four goals at the Bernabeu alone, and he is the number one scorer in the national derby in the past decade. Moreover, his four goals at the Bernabeu have also allowed him to surpass Henry, Ronaldinho, Rivaldo and Saldua, and become the player with the most goals in the history of Barcelona.

Since we have entered four, it’s nothing to enter two more here.

These two goals not only allow themselves to surpass C. Ronaldo, but also help their team win games.

As for Chu Zhongtian... it seems that he will not have much interaction with him in this game. The only way to avenge the revenge in the Champions League final is to defeat Real Madrid where he is.

※※※Messi is full of fighting spirit for this game, and c. Ronaldo is also full of fighting spirit. Because they all have strong goals.

So what about Chu Zhongtian?

Chu Zhongtian’s goal is to win this game.

Nothing can make him feel more pleasant than victory, let alone defeating such an important and powerful opponent.

In addition, it is also a very fulfilling thing to compete with Xavi in ​​the midfield.

Xavi is Barcelona's midfield commander, and so is Chu Zhongtian.

Long before Chu Zhongtian transferred to Real Madrid, some media thought he was a midfielder like Xavi, but the German media disagreed at that time because they believed that Chu Zhongtian's defensive ability was better than Xavi, and his physical fitness was better, and he was not the same type of player as Xavi. If you had to find a template for Chu Zhongtian, I'm afraid Beckenbauer would be more suitable... To be fair, Chu Zhongtian is indeed different from Xavi's style. Xavi uses passes to organize the entire team more, but his contribution in defense is very small. Chu Zhongtian is more comprehensive and has better physical fitness, which means he can do many things that Xavi can't do - such as the fact that he is staring at the man and freezing the opponent's core... ※※Xavi ran through the middle circle to ask for the ball, and football and Chu Zhongtian came almost at the same time.

Now Chu Zhongtian is a front midfielder, so he doesn't have to worry about whether it will lead to empty defenses, so that he can follow Harvey without distraction, no matter where he runs.

Xavi had to catch the ball with his back, but as soon as Chu Zhongtian put it on, it would be difficult for him to set you up... In fact, players like Xavi have become accustomed to getting rid of the defensive players with their backs. He has experience.

As long as the defending player makes a foot and intercepts the ball, it is his chance to get rid of it. Because at this moment, the defensive player will relax his defense against people and focus on the ball, which will open up space. Space is very important. The player holding the ball can do what he wants to do when he has space.

But Chu Zhongtian is different from ordinary defensive players. He sticks to Xavi, but does not rush to steal. Instead, he relies on his physical strength to squeeze Xavi into the backcourt.

In terms of power confrontation, Harvey really cannot compete with Chu Zhongtian. If he doesn't move, he will definitely be squeezed to the ground by Chu Zhongtian in the end. Chu Zhongtian might be a foul, but his attack will definitely be interrupted. If he is interrupted like this every time, it is not a good thing for the attack.

Xavi was forced to run back and carry the football. While doing this, he had to prevent Chu Zhongtian from breaking the ball. In addition, he had to observe the surroundings, find a suitable passing point, and consider what to do next.

He eventually passed the football to Busquets.

Higuain forced himself up.

Chu Zhongtian did not follow the football, nor did he stay by Harvey's side without leaving any steps, like a guard dog. He stepped back a little and got stuck at the key point of defense. Not only did he defend Harvey, but also Busquez suddenly dribbled the ball forward.

Under Higuain's press, Buzquez turned around and passed the football to central defender Pique.

This time, no one went to press the situation. Higuain did not continue to pounce because he knew that the result of continuing to pounce was to be fooled by the opponent like a monkey. Besides, Mourinho specifically warned them to pay special attention to maintaining their formation when defending. So he not only did not pounce forward, but instead retreated.

Real Madrid did not play against Barcelona at home, but chose a safe defensive strategy. This seemed to confirm Cruyff's words: "Even if Mourinho comes, Real Madrid will not dare to play against Barcelona in the game. Perhaps this is the biggest pain in the hearts of Real Madrid fans."

But so what? Real Madrid has not won a single national derby in six league games against Barcelona. Victory is more important than the scene. Real Madrid fans value the result more than the process. If a person can't even eat, do you think he will care whether he eats porridge or the Manchu and Han banquet?

Therefore, Mourinho's choice to use conservative tactics to welcome the enemy at the Bernabeu did not attract crazy booing in the stands. Instead, he received unreserved support from the fans. The sound of singing came from the stands, which well demonstrated the attitude of Real Madrid fans towards Mourinho's playing style.

※※ Many teams think that as long as they press and defend, pressing like a mad dog can curb Barcelona's control ball play style. So they often see their players following the butt of the football, chasing Barcelona players from one end to the other, and then chasing back to the other end. However, the football is always at the feet of Barcelona players, and Barcelona has also used this back and forth to pull out their defense and is seized to death with an opportunity.

Mourinho has known since his time in coaching Inter Milan that this is not feasible, and it is better to do the opposite. Since Barcelona controls the ball on the spot, let them control it. They can control the ball in non-hazardous areas. Once they reach the dangerous areas, they will find that they face the most guarded opponents and do not leave them any space and time. Such defense gives the ball control to the opponent, but is not polite in the competition for ball rights in key places, and can even be said to be very cruel... So Mourinho's team plays with Barcelona, ​​and the ball control rate is pitifully low. This is also one of the handles he has been criticized by those "artists".

Now in Real Madrid, Mourinho still does this. The team recovers very deeply and shrinks within a 30-meter area. But this kind of shrinking tactic still cannot stop Barcelona, ​​because Barcelona always faces the situation of their opponents shrinking, and they still have a way to crack this kind of shrink, that is, frequent transmission and running positions, disintegrate the opponent's defensive formation, and tear open the gap.

So to defend Barcelona, ​​there is another thing needed - the containment of Xavi and Iniesta.

Xavi and Iniesta are the source and motivation of Barcelona's offense. Messi is just the final figure to solve the problem or be overly over. Without the continuous support of Xavi and Iniesta in the midfield, he is useless. This is why Messi in Barcelona and Messi in the Argentina national team are completely different.

There are not many people who can curb Xavi and Iniesta, because these two are super high-level players, so it is not easy for them to let any cat and dog die.

Although Chu Zhongtian has never had a head-on confrontation with Xavi and Iniesta, Mourinho firmly believes that Chu Zhongtian can do it, so he delegated the most core task to Chu Zhongtian. If those who claim that Chu Zhongtian and Mourinho have a bad relationship, if they know the story behind this, they still insist that one of the two people will leave Real Madrid after the end of the season?

Chu Zhongtian's defense against Harvey is all-round.

Barcelona initially tried to organize the attack without using Xavi, so Messi frequently retreated. What threat could Messi, who was far away from the penalty area, have? After he took the ball, he turned around and led forward, increasing the distance to dribble, and also increasing the risk of him being intercepted, making Real Madrid's defense easier.

This obviously won't work. Barcelona soon discovered this.

So in the end, it depends on Harvey.

As long as the football is passed to Xavi, Chu Zhongtian will immediately pounce on it, with steady and accurate movements, which will make Xavi suffer.

Want to survive Chu Zhongtian? One-on-one defense, Chu Zhongtian is almost invincible, and Messi has suffered from him, let alone Xavi. He can get rid of it by passing the ball? This is a good way, because Barcelona is very skilled in passing and cooperation.

But the problem is that although Chu Zhongtian was not very active when defending Xavi, he was very ruthless. Don’t think that Xavi has no pressure. In fact, he must be wary of Chu Zhongtian’s small moves at all times. Under such interference, it is not easy to pass the football well.

What's more, when Chu Zhongtian found that he could no longer hold on to the other party, he would not hesitate and make a foul, knocking Harvey down to the ground, completely ending this possible threatening attack.

Since his foul locations are in non-sensitive areas, the referee often just whistles, no cards, and even no verbal warnings.

Xavi seemed very helpless about this, while the Catalonian commentator seized this point and criticized the referee of the game, Munis Hernandez, who thought he was too partial to the home team. This was a naked whistle!

"Murinho always complains that his team is not treated preferentially, while Barcelona has received various special care from the Football Association and the League Committee. But now let's see who is treated preferentially? It's Real Madrid!!"
