Real Madrid needs to reduce the pressure and need to concentrate on finding the team's technical and tactical balance point again. This is a problem in the technical and tactical system. Barcelona's two consecutive losses seem to be more serious, but in Cruyff's eyes, it is just a small problem of performance on the spot, which is better and easier to solve.

Immediately afterwards, the team's coach Guardiola also came forward to protect the team and avoid the players from getting more mental pressure. Guardiola was interviewed before playing in the King's Cup in the middle of the week.

“I am responsible for failure.”

Barcelona coach Guardiola said so.

In the eyes of this young coach, after a period of downturn, it is time for his turn to stand up and speak for the team.

Previously, when Barcelona was advancing all the way, Guardiola repeatedly explained that players rather than head coaches are the key to the team's success.

Now, Barcelona has performed poorly in several consecutive games, and Guardiola does not want to find a scapegoat, but takes the initiative to take responsibility.

At the same time, he also expressed optimism about the team's prospects.

"I think we will be champions," Guardiola said.

"We now have a 2-point lead, and we will expand this advantage in the future. If we can't win the championship in the end, I will suffer the consequences, and I will congratulate the champion."

After two consecutive losses, Barcelona was full of pressure.

At this critical moment, Guardiola, who has always been low-key, did not choose to retreat, but bravely walked into the spotlight and played the protagonist.

He doesn't want to be so rude like his master Cruyff. If I lose, you are right. If I win, then the truth will be with me. But facing reality and fighting the pressure around me.

Training players is the first step to getting out of trouble.

"You must believe me and believe what I say." Guardiola said to the players in a savior tone.

"You did a good job before, and now you know how to do it. I don't ask you to create any miracles, you just need to do what you did before. Believe me, there is only one way ahead, and we know how to go on this road."

Then Guardiola continued to cheer up the players, saying: "I am the boss of this team, I am the leader. If you continue to follow me, we will achieve our goals. I never doubt this. If something happens, I will hold on here, and the news media will just target me."

The club does not seem to have taken every possible measure to protect the team.

On the plane to participate in the second leg of the Copa del Rey semi-finals, only 25 fans followed the team.

But Guardiola laughed at this and joked: "The plane is full."

This time in Mallorca Guardiola brought everyone he could, including the injured players.

Iniesta, who passed the medical examination on Tuesday, will sit on the bench and be ready to play.

Even the team's medical staff went out with the team together, and there were as many as 40 people in Barcelona.

Guardiola said firmly: "We have worked together until now, and we will work hard to reach the Copa del Rey final together."

When facing the siege of journalists, Guardiola said: "I am not as worried as you said. When and what kind of articles are your work, you can think and speak according to your own ideas, but what I want to tell you is that I believe in my team, I believe in my players, and I believe in myself. In a word, if I lose, you are the winner; but if I win, then I am the winner."

At present, Guardiola has not decided which goalkeeper to send.

Pinto was the main goalkeeper in the previous Cup of REU, but Valdes, whose confidence was frustrated, also needs to be comforted at this time.

In any case, putting aside the goalkeeper's choice, Guardiola will do his best in this game, although Barcelona has already achieved a 2-0 lead in the first leg.

Guardiola said: "We will attack, attack, and attack again. We will strive to win the game in one fell swoop."

"We should regain our former form in this game, be as ambitious as before, and play aggressive football. I don't ask others to trust these players, but others won't stop me from giving them full trust."

Before the game, Real Madrid Club Chairman Boruda claimed that Real Madrid has actually led Barcelona because Barcelona will definitely lose against Real Madrid away.

When a reporter asked about this, Guardiola just said lightly: "He seems to have correctly predicted the outcome of their relationship with Liverpool." Boruda had said shamelessly before Real Madrid against Liverpool at home that Real Madrid will beat Liverpool 3-0 at home and then "shoulder" Liverpool away. As a result, Real Madrid drew Liverpool 2-2 at home.

"I respect Real Madrid's club president, but he has no ability to hit my morale and enthusiasm, even though he is the dignified President of Real Madrid."

Guardiola said at the end.

During this period when both La Liga players encountered different difficulties, the role played by the two clubs in addition to players and coaches has formed a huge contrast.

Real Madrid's chairman Boruda seems to follow Calderon's odor and likes to speak nonsense.

Sometimes this will stimulate the team's confidence, sometimes it will put players under greater pressure and put injustice from the outside world.

Just like he said before, Real Madrid would beat Liverpool, but what was the result? It slapped himself in the face and made the team quite ashamed. After all, he is the chairman, and what he said made Real Madrid "everyone has the responsibility."

Now the team obviously needs to face the future calmly, be low-key, and even be good at being the first to be in the world, but he also made a fuss to judge that Real Madrid will win the future national derby.

This is simply unreasonable.

Perhaps Boruda only saw the positive changes in the standings numbers from 6 points behind to 2 points after two league rounds.

And without taking a careful look at the difficulties faced by Real Madrid in the match against Liverpool and Espanyol!

Simply put, the technical and tactical style of Real Madrid in the past is no longer feasible!

Liverpool opened a door and used a textbook game to tell the world how to play Real Madrid, and it was the most effective.
