Chapter 79 Anger and Pain
The atmosphere of Manchester City's halftime break was very relaxed, and everyone could see that Real Madrid no longer had the fighting spirit.
For Real Madrid, this life-and-death battle seems to have no meaning of a life-and-death battle at all...
Even Bets did not take a stern face to keep the players on their guard.
Even if you lose in the end of this game and Manchester City scores nine points, you can still qualify as long as you win one of the remaining two games.
It's just a group stage, there's no need to force the players so tightly.
At the same time, in the dressing room of Real Madrid, the atmosphere was a bit depressing.
Although they are only one goal behind, in the eyes of many Real Madrid players, their failures are inevitable.
You should know that when they went to Manchester, many people still had expectations for the future, believing that they could beat Manchester City away and rekind their hopes of qualifying in the group.
But what is the result?
After the game started, they realized that the situation was much worse than they thought.
They didn't get any decent chances throughout the first half.
Such a situation makes them desperate.
Everyone was silent.
As the captain of the team, Raul tried to stand up and say something to encourage the players.
In any case, the depressing atmosphere now is not suitable for halftime breaks and is not conducive to the players' second half game.
But just as he was lifting his butt off the stool, he suddenly heard Pellegrini's voice.
"Well, I'm honored that Real Madrid's most shameful record in Champions League history will be born in my hands."
When everyone heard Pellegrini say this suddenly, they looked up at him in surprise - Is this head coach crazy? How could he say such words?
When Pellegrini saw everyone looking up at him, he curled his lips and smiled: "Ha, it's really good. I've been your head coach for so long, and it's not easy for all of you to finally look at me. When I was about to finish class, I finally enjoyed the treatment of Real Madrid head coach."
His words are nakedly mocking his players.
But it doesn't matter, Pellegrini has no intention of continuing to go to Real Madrid, so now he has offended all Real Madrid players, he is no longer afraid.
He kept these words in his heart and wanted to say them, but because he was the head coach of Real Madrid, he dared not say them, nor could he say them.
But now...
"You think you are all the top stars in the world. You think that playing football in Real Madrid is the peak of your career. You don't want to accept anyone's criticism and suggestions. You are very proud and arrogant. You think you don't need me as the head coach to talk in your ears. You can beat any team. As long as you work hard and sweat a little, you can do it. But reality gave you a slap in the face. You are at your home court. Even teams like Bordeaux and Manchester City can't win who else can you win? No one of you can win."
Everyone looked at Pellegrini in surprise, wondering what was wrong with this Chilean.
But Pellegrini ignored the complicated eyes of these players. He continued to say on his own: "After this game, I will submit a resignation application to the club's board of directors. I used to think that coaching Real Madrid was the peak of my coaching career, but now I find that I am outrageously wrong. I promised to coach you was the biggest mistake in my career. You don't need a head coach like me at all. You are just a bunch of arrogant ghosts."
"Why did you lose to Manchester City? You may have never thought about this problem. In terms of paper strength, you should be better than Manchester City, and you should beat Manchester City. But in fact? Football is not a comparison of the strength of all players. Football games depend on the actual performance on the court. Your actual performance is just a piece of cake."
Pellegrini, the usually gentle engineer, also started to run wild, transformed into a hair dryer, roared loudly at the players in Real Madrid.
"You still want to participate in the Champions League final at the Bernabeu? Go dreaming and you still want to win the 10th Champions League trophy? With your performance like this, don't even think about it."
After saying that, Pellegrini turned around and walked out of the locker room, then slammed the door of the locker room heavily behind her.
A group of players in the locker room were left behind, all looking at each other.
Raul looked at everyone, then looked at the locker room door that was thrown on, sighed, and lowered his head.
He felt that nothing he said was useless.
This game is over...
Real Madrid really wants to add a shameful record to the history of participating in the Champions League - the group has not been qualified
※※※
After the second half of the game began, Pellegrini always sat on the coach's seat, wrapped her hands around her chest, crossed her legs, and looked at the players on the court coldly.
He looked like this, and he didn't look worried about the team at all.
He had already made a decision in his mind.
He is not a joke. After the game, he will resign to Florentino in front of the reporters.
The reason I have to be in front of the reporter is to not leave any room for myself.
He wants everyone to see his determination.
I don't want to coach the Real Madrid team yet
The Real Madrid players on the court were suddenly scolded by their head coach during the halftime break. They were all a little dazed and had not recovered yet.
Although many of them did not regard Pellegrini as their head coach at all, they were still shocked after being scolded by Pellegrini.
So you can imagine what performance Real Madrid players can perform on the court.
There are frequent mistakes, many mistakes and even amateur mistakes.
Such performances appear on Real Madrid players, which makes the commentators very surprised.
"...Ramos' pass...Roy's insertion speed is very fast. He grabbed the ball in advance. Pepe... He can only foul for a foul. If he doesn't foul, Rong will break into the penalty area. For this reason, Pepe received a yellow card... But look at Ramos, his pass mistake just now is too amateur. He is like being absent-minded."
Because of this foul, Manchester City won a direct free kick 24 meters away from Real Madrid fans, and the position was very straight.
Free kicks in this place are very threatening.
If it was a normal game, Pepe shouldn't have chosen to foul this place. But at that time he had no other choice. If he didn't foul, Rong Guang would directly break into the penalty area and face goalkeeper Casillas alone, which would be even more dangerous.
After all, no one can do a free kick with white hair, and there are still people who grab it to block it. If a player kicks ten free kicks, half of them can enter the goal, he can be considered a top master.
But if it's a single shot, it's too simple for the forward.
The two evils are less serious, and Pepe decisively fouled.
Rong Guang came to the free throw place with the football in his arms.
Sneider stood beside him, ready to cover him.
Manchester City fans in the stands booed because of Pepe's foul just now. They thought the referee gave Pepe a yellow card and showed mercy. As for the situation just now, it was not too much for him to go directly with a red card.
But now when Glory came to take the free kick, the boo immediately turned into cheers.
Everyone knows Glory's free kick ability.
Maybe they can cheer for the goal again?
※※※
The walls of Real Madrid are quite serious, with as many as six people standing in front of glory.
Casillas is also on guard in front of the goal. He has also studied Glory's free kicks. Pellegrini once showed them videos of Glory's free kicks. Glory has not scored many free kicks so far. After all, he only showed his strength in the last game of last season.
However, some rules can be summarized.
Glory's free kick is mainly "leaf-falling ball", which is a bit like the free kick kicked by Casilla's teammate Cristiano Ronaldo.
So Casillas is not unfamiliar with the characteristics of this kind of free kick.
If Glory still uses such a free kick to score, Casillas will be sure to win the football.
He lowered his center of gravity and stared at the football.
The distance is very close, and he must make a decision in an instant, otherwise the football will be possible.
But when the referee blew the whistle and Glory helped, Casillas discovered something was wrong - he wanted to kick the ball with his left foot
When I saw Rong Guang's free kick collection before, I knew that Rong Guang used his right foot to kick the fallen leaves.
But now from the perspective of Glory Running Up, this is not a way to play a fallen leaf ball.
Just when Casillas was surprised, Rongguang had already run to the football
His body leaned slightly right, and the inner instep of his left foot hit the football
The football soared into the air, drew a beautiful arc in the air, circled around the other side of the human wall, and headed straight to the left of the goal
It runs completely contrary to the right side where Casillas stands
Casillas hurriedly ran over there and then soared into the air to try to save the football.
But his movements were slower in front of the football.
The football rushed into the goal before he got his hands
20
Manchester City leads Real Madrid two goals at home
It turns out that the overall situation has been decided
After seeing the ball fly into the goal off the court, Pellegrini closed his eyes in pain.
Although he scolded his team during the break, he still felt very painful when he saw this scene really coming.
Thinking about how ambitious and full of hope for the future when he came to Real Madrid. He thought he could open up a new world in Real Madrid, become a hot coach in the world football world, and he would become the pride of the people in his hometown.
