Before the game started, the media in Madrid began to hype the good relationship between Chang Sheng and Calderon.
They even think this means Chang Sheng may show mercy to Real Madrid because of this...
But what a pity, they all guessed wrong.
In the midweek match, Lazio's main players played their best, and everyone was very active.
Fortunately, Schuster is not naive enough to think that the winning team will give up Real Madrid at home.
Otherwise, Real Madrid would definitely lose at the end of the first half.
Lazio started the game at a very fast pace from the beginning.
Then they took the lead in the 21st minute with Falcao's shot.
"Falcao! Tiger Falcao! This season Falcao has exploded! He has already scored five goals in the league and two goals in the Champions League! When he first came to Lazio, who could have imagined
Where is this terrifying genius shooter at this point?"
the commentator shouted excitedly.
"Now, at his feet, there are countless wealthy clubs! He is Lazio's leading center forward Falcao!"
There was a huge cheer in the stands.
Over the past season, it has become a habit for Lazio fans to chant Falcao's name.
When he joined Lazio, no one knew anything except that he played for River Plate.
We don't even know whether he is the main forward or the substitute at River Plate.
But it doesn't matter, it took Falcao a season to tell everyone that he is "Tiger" Falcao!
※※※
Chang Sheng stood up from his seat, raised his fist high, and celebrated Falcao's goal with the fans.
Since Florentino left his job long ago, there was no war of words before the game.
But this does not mean that Chang Sheng does not want to win against Real Madrid.
When he was kicked out by Chang Sheng, the club president was not Florentino.
So it has nothing to do with who is the president of the club. He just wants to defeat Real Madrid and make this century-old giant completely bow its head to him!
※※※
After Falcao scored, Lazio took a one-goal lead at home.
Real Madrid can't sit still at all.
They stepped up their offensive.
Compared with the original Galaxy Fleet, this Real Madrid is a poor Real Madrid.
In fact, only Robben and Ruud van Nistelrooy are good on the offensive line. As for Robinho, he also boasted a lot, but his actual performance was not good.
Higuain is still immature. Saviola and Baptista are just soy sauce.
Whether in terms of strength or reputation, these players are far inferior to the Galaxy Fleet created by Florentino.
But they won the league championship last season, breaking the Dream Team's monopoly on the league championship.
So it really shouldn’t be underestimated.
When they attack with all their strength, every point of Lazio's defense is under tremendous pressure.
Jose Passarella is still recovering and is not eligible to play.
As a result, the defensive responsibility of Lazio's defense fell on Pavon.
Lazio has conceded a lot of goals in recent games, and Pavon has been under tremendous pressure.
But no one could tell that he was living under pressure.
This is perhaps the biggest difference between Pavin three years ago and Pavin now.
There is pressure all the time in his life, but you will never see him overwhelmed by the pressure.
He has learned how to deal with pressure. Just like the boss said.
"How can you be a professional player if you don't bear pressure?"
Now he has learned.
Not just off the court, but also on the court.
Such as now.
※※※
Schuster may know how Chang Sheng dealt with Pavin in the first place, so he deals with him in the same way now.
That is to concentrate all Real Madrid's offense on Pavin. Try to break through Pavin and completely defeat him.
In fact, Pavin has performed very well in recent years, but he is too low-key, and with the new Nesta who is omnipotent next to him, it seems that he is still the same.
Schuster therefore made a wrong judgment.
He felt that as long as he put enough pressure on Pavin, Pavin would collapse.
So one wave after another of Real Madrid's offensive attacks hit Pavon.
When Pavin was on the back line, he was wearing the captain's armband. Jose Passarella hadn't recovered from his injury, and Rocky didn't play in this game. The captain's armband fell on the arm of Pavin, the oldest in the team. Watching the surge.
When speaking to his Real Madrid players, he thought of his first La Liga game for Real Madrid.
In that league game, he was wearing a white Real Madrid jersey and faced orange Valencia players. Wave after wave of attacks, like huge waves, directly beat him to death on the shore.
.
Now the attacks are coming one after another. But he is not as frightened as he was six years ago.
His experience tells him that there are many ways to deal with it.
But he thought of what Chang Sheng said when he first joined Lazio.
"You have to show them your tough side, even if it means fouling! You have to not give up an inch of ground!"
When Robben suddenly cut in from the wing and rushed towards him, Pavon won the ball.
Robben dunked the football to the right with his left foot, intending to get out of the way of Pavin.
Parveen dominates everything.
Naturally, his movement is not as good as Robben's, but he doesn't intend to intercept the ball just like that.
His purpose is to commit a foul!
He moved very hard, and when Robben was about to pass him by, Pavin shrugged his shoulders. Then the elbow of his body that was close to him pressed firmly against Robben's crotch.
It's very painful to be pressed in that place...
Robben lost his balance in pain and fell to the ground.
Naturally, possession of the ball was lost.
The referee's whistle then sounded.
"Foul! Pavin foul! This is an obvious foul!"
Pavin, who committed the foul, did not reach out to Robben who was lying on the ground, but stepped back.
Robben lay on the ground for a while holding his painful hip bone before standing up. When the team doctor came up, he got up from the ground.
Real Madrid's team doctor examined him and found that he was fine.
Of course there won't be any problem. Pavin looked very cruel now. But in fact it was a hard injury. Apart from being very painful at the time, there would be no sequelae.
It can be seen that Parveen is really a kind person...
But even so, Pavin's action surprised the reporters from Madrid, Spain in the stands.
They looked up at the big screen in the stands of the stadium. There happened to be a close-up of Pavon on the big screen.
Parveen's face is expressionless in the camera.
The journalists were reminded of their pre-match articles touting Pavon's relationship with Real Madrid...
They tried to arouse the love for Real Madrid in the heart of this Real Madrid wanderer who had been separated for many years.
But now it seems that they have failed.
So what caused their failure?
Almost everyone turned their attention to the home team's coaching bench at the same time.
Chang Sheng was standing there. Then he raised his arms and stretched toward the court.
The distance was too far and there was a gap in the middle, so they couldn't see clearly what gesture Chang Sheng made.
It's just that they all believe that the Chinese man must have contributed to Pavin's ruthlessness.
※※※
Chang Sheng's gesture from the sidelines to the court is "thumbs up".
Well done!
Pavin turned his head and saw this action. He smiled, and then immediately returned to his serious expression.
Chang Sheng didn't see Pavin's expression change, it was too fast.
But he saw Pavin turning to look at him.
He knows that both parties should understand what the other person means.
※※※
Real Madrid's forwards also quickly discovered that Francisco Pavin was very difficult to deal with today. He was not someone who could be defeated as long as they exerted enough pressure, as their head coach said.
In Real Madrid's starting lineup, the only players who played with Pavin in the first team were Raul, Guti, Salgado and Casillas.
Because Raul and Guti are offensive players, they can always win and directly talk to each other.
They were all surprised by Parveen's performance.
Of course, if both of them were selected for the Spanish national team, they might not be so surprised...
The Pavin in front of me defended fiercely and was very tough.
Real Madrid picked up the ball from the backcourt and passed it to the frontcourt.
When Raul was about to compete for a header, Francisco Pavin suddenly rushed up from behind, jumped before Raul, and hit Raul hard in the back.
Pressing Raul, he hit the football, but also knocked Raul down.
When Raul fell to the ground, the referee's whistle sounded again.
He committed another foul.
Pavin looked at the old man lying on the ground, holding the back of his head. He remained indifferent, biting his lips, and did not go up to pull him, but turned around and ran back.
The one who fell to the ground was his idol in the Real Madrid youth training camp. There are few children in the youth team who don't like Raul. No matter what position the player is in, they all hope that they can become Raul in the end.
A Real Madrid player like Gonzalez. Proud to play for Real Madrid.
But now, I gave my idol a hard blow during the competition.
In the past, he wouldn't have dared to think about it.
When he was training at Real Madrid, he was always very cautious when facing Raul, for fear of hurting the team's captain.
At that time, he had not yet played in the first team. Being able to train with the first team was already a great thing.
Although Raul was very kind, he was still frightened.
At that time, he still dreamed of becoming famous in Real Madrid and eventually becoming Real Madrid's Nuevo Hierro, just like what the newspaper said. Zidanega Pavin? It sounds so beautiful. Although there is some pressure, I can also be with him.
World Footballer of the Year!
Nowadays, Real Madrid has gradually faded from his life. What became Hierro, what Zidane and Pavin's policies... have long since dissipated with the wind, completely submerged in the past.
Now, he wants to introduce his new identity to his former teammates.
