978 Talented Coach
"Guardiola is really a genius!"
In the stands of the president of the Bernabeu Stadium, Bardano looked at the stable situation in the stadium and shook his head and sighed.
Ancelotti is undoubtedly the world's top head coach. From pre-game preparations to placing troops, Ancelotti obviously has to beat Guardiola. In the tactics of both sides, Guardiola obviously made serious mistakes.
It can be said that conceding two goals in a row at the beginning was the result of Guardiola's mistake.
Of course, it is irresponsible to shift the responsibility for those two goals to Guardiola, because mistakes on the football field are always accompanied by the players' own problems. For example, Valdes has never been reliable, and Barcelona has always been looking for a more suitable goalkeeper, which is known to the whole world.
But when Guardiola concedes the first goal, he did not make any changes, and when he concedes the second goal, he still did not move, and still did not change his previous judgment. As a result, Messi led Barcelona to counterattack and scored a goal.
One to two, the game was full of suspense again.
It was in this case that Guardiola chose to adjust.
As the world's top superstar back then, Guardiola was obviously more familiar with and understood the players' mood and mood changes on the court than anyone else, and he was always bringing confidence to the players.
Now, after the adjustment, Barcelona has stabilized their position and began to control the ball.
"After the previous first half, he seemed to have repeatedly pondered and studied it. His progress can be seen from this game. This is a very terrible thing." Bardano said appreciatively.
Florentino certainly understands Guardiola's excellence and greatness, but this is not a good thing for Real Madrid.
"But, Jorge, the outside world has always believed that he is too superstitious about his feelings." Chief Supervisor Redondo smiled.
Although Real Madrid has lost possession, they are still one goal ahead, and the situation is still optimistic.
With double midfielders, the combination of Xavi Alonso and Mascherano can still ensure the team's defensive quality as long as there are no major mistakes in the defense line. From Benitez to Ancelotti, Real Madrid has maintained this for two and a half years.
Bardano nodded, "Yes, this is a problem, but you need to know that mediocre people will never understand the idea of geniuses, and all geniuses are superstitious about their own feelings because they are geniuses."
After pausing, Bardano pointed at the stadium, "It's like we never know why Messi suddenly retreated to the midfielder position just now, but he dared to ride the ball alone and forced himself to pass the level, and even asked him to give Sanchez such an assist."
"In the same way, we can't figure out why Yang Yang just attacked the left side and was going to cooperate with Ibrahimovic. How could he see the unguarded Robben on the far left side?"
The players' vision on the court is limited, and the stadium changes rapidly, so to a certain extent, the players' vision is very narrow, but Yang Yang can see Robben, while Messi dares to dribble and break through.
This is what makes them unique.
It can be said that when they make such a choice, they must make judgments based on their own feelings.
This is true for Yang Yang and Messi, so is Guardiola, and even Ancelotti.
In the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, the whole world did not understand Maradona, including players from the Argentina national team, because no one could understand what Maradona wanted. The king of football coached the team based on his own feelings, but he could not convey his feelings to the players.
So, Maradona is a great player, but he is doomed to be a failed head coach.
The great thing about Guardiola is that he did what Maradona could not do.
But not every great player in this world can become Guardiola.
"You're right, Jorge." Florentino also spoke at this time, "Sometimes the feeling of genius is more important than anything else, so I have always believed that Zidane would become a great head coach, not only him, but Raul, but others, such as Xavi Alonso, and Yang Yang."
No one has ever questioned whether Yang Yang has the talent for coaching, because he is really, very smart.
Even many professionals in the industry think that Yang Yang's talent for playing football is very ordinary, but he is a very smart player. He is good at analyzing and summarizing. He has a strong ability to read and analyze games. His insight and deduction ability in games are beyond the reach of others.
For example, during the 2010 Champions League final halftime, Real Madrid had no choice but to face Inter Milan's iron walls, but it was the plan proposed by Yang Yang to pull and mobilize the opponent's defensive formation through large-scale transfers, thereby creating defensive loopholes, which completely broke the situation on the court.
Is this fresh?
Not new, because it's something all professionals know.
But Yang Yang proposed such a plan in the special situation at that time, based on Real Madrid's own situation and the characteristics of his opponents, which profoundly changed everything about Real Madrid.
In the past two years, Barcelona has also adopted this offensive method, and Real Madrid has also been unswervingly following this path, so they have introduced Di Maria and Macon, and this summer, Herrera and Modric have been introduced.
It can be said that Yang Yang's proposal at that time not only brought Real Madrid a Champions League, but also allowed Real Madrid's technical team to see another possibility, leading Real Madrid to a stable and tactical road.
Maybe he is not a genius who plays football, but his wisdom will definitely make him a genius who is in the field of coaching.
In Florentino's plan, the future Real Madrid head coach position will definitely belong to Real Madrid's own people, Zidane, Raul, Xavi Alonso, Yang Yang, and even more.
Among them, Zidane, Raul and Yang Yang were put in the most important position by him.
…………

Guardiola's adjustment changed the situation on the court and helped Barcelona stabilize its position.
Real Madrid was also forced to defend and counterattack. After all, the risk of double midfielders is relatively high, and Kaka's position has also retreated much more than the opening game, which has led to Real Madrid starting to lose the ball rights.
However, this is within Real Madrid's estimate.
The first half ended with a 2-1 win, with Real Madrid temporarily leading.
During the halftime break, when he returned to the locker room, Real Madrid players were in a pretty good mood.
Although he was recovered in the first half, Real Madrid still took the lead for the time being, and the key is how to play in the second half.
There was no one in the locker room discussing this issue, and more about some of the problems that occurred in the first half, such as how Ramos slipped, and how could Mascherano suddenly get rid of Messi...
Similar to such discussions, even debates, every half-time break will occur. Everyone is used to it, and they will tacitly control this discussion in a better atmosphere to avoid damaging the harmony.
Once a player argues too much, people around him will immediately come forward to dissuade him, and the parties involved will quickly calm down and shake hands and make peace.
This is a very good habit, but only if no one can blame his teammates for their mistakes.
It seems like no one will accuse Ramos of slitting his feet, no one will accuse Mascherano of being easily removed, or Kaka and Xavi Alonso cannot limit Messi, Pepe did not block Sanchez in time, and so on.
This kind of accusation is meaningless.
Yang Yang usually doesn't speak much because he rarely makes mistakes. Sometimes, Real Madrid will laugh and joke that he is a robot who never makes mistakes, and is a bit terrifyingly stable, but he will always sit in his position, analyze the first half and think about the second half.
He speculated that Ancelotti should still take another risk to take a gamble in the second half.
If it is a draw or a big victory now, Ancelotti will probably defend it, but now he is one goal ahead, which is a very, very unsafe score. If Barcelona scores another goal, Real Madrid's situation will be more passive.
Therefore, it is better to take the risk of taking advantage of the second half to put pressure on it, take a gamble, and strive for another goal.
The draw is acceptable to Real Madrid. Although the situation is not satisfactory in a single game, from the overall perspective, Real Madrid is still leading by eight points and still has a very advantageous position.
If Ancelotti dared not fight out under this situation, it would be a bit disappointing.
...
Just as Yang Yang was thinking, Ancelotti and his assistants pushed open the door of the locker room and walked in.
He first praised the team's performance in the first half, affirmed several points that did well, and also gave guidance on some problems that arose in the first half, believing that the team needs to correct the second half.
Later, he made demands on the team's tactics in the second half.
"After the start of the second half, we still have to push out bravely and boldly, and strive to use the start to score another goal!"
Ancelotti analyzed some tactical changes and adjustments in Barcelona's second half of the first half. He believed that Real Madrid's offense was still concentrated on two sides in the second half. After advancing to the outside of the penalty area, he tried to turn to both sides and the middle.
"Two full-backs should actively participate in the offense, and both backs should pay attention to protecting the two wings. We should strive to get another goal from Barcelona at the beginning of the second half. At that time, Barcelona will definitely go crazy."
Ancelotti's meaning is very obvious. As long as the score can be expanded to three-to-one, Barcelona will not be able to attack even if they don't want to push them out. By that time, Real Madrid will take a defensive counterattack.
Of course, Barcelona will definitely guess the possibility that Real Madrid will attack. The key is how Guardiola chooses.
The top four superstars in Real Madrid are all top in the world, and their personal abilities are excellent. If you really want to attack, even Barcelona will have to be afraid of it.
...
The game was also as arranged by Ancelotti. Real Madrid attacked at the beginning of the second half, but Barcelona did not choose to give in, but instead fought against tit.
Just two minutes into the second half, Yang Yang tripped to the ground by Pique while dribbling the ball at the front of the penalty area.
