In the second round of La Liga, Real Madrid challenged Granada away from home.
The game started just over three minutes ago...
"Grenada's quick counterattack advanced to the outside of Real Madrid's penalty area."
"Pogba returned to defense and Casemiro stole the ball."
"Pass it out and give it to Pogba."
"Real Madrid's quick counterattack, Pogba advanced with the ball."
"Marcos Alonso came over to take over and it was a beautiful one-two."
"It was Pogba who got the ball, pushed it to the outside of the penalty area, and passed it to the left side of the penalty area."
"Isco stops the ball, pulls back, fakes, and dunks back..."
"Beautiful breakthrough, reaching the penalty area, and hitting the goal directly with his right foot."
"The ball went in!!!"
“Real Madrid scored!!”
"More than three minutes into the game, Isco dribbled the ball into the penalty area on the left side of the penalty area, shot a cold arrow with his right foot, and shot very suddenly. The football went directly into the lower left corner of the goal. It was a blind spot. From
He slipped into the extremely narrow gap between goalkeeper Roberto and the left post."
"One to zero!"
"This was an offensive collaboration from Real Madrid's left wing, Pogba scored the ball, and Isco's goal was very beautiful."
…
ten minutes……
"Verratti's transfer was to the left wing."
"Marcos Alonso stopped the ball, passed it to Pogba, and passed it forward to Isco."
"Isco picked up the ball from the outside of the left corner of the penalty area and sent a direct pass to the left side of the small penalty area."
"Dzeko followed up and shot low with his left foot..."
"The ball went in!!!"
"Real Madrid scored two goals in ten minutes, 2-0!"
"Dzeko once again showed his true qualities as a killer!"
"Real Madrid's offense was very active after the opening, especially on the left."
"The connection between Pogba, Marcos Alonso and Isco is very thoughtful."
"Especially Isco's direct pass and Dzeko's sudden intervention."
"Grenada's central defender simply couldn't stop Dzeko's frontal impact."
…
Twenty-three minutes…
"Ramos' long pass was transferred to the right side of the frontcourt."
"Jesse stopped the ball with his chest and walked towards the center, attracting the defensive attention."
"Arbeloa, on the right, cuts in at the highway."
"Jesse passed the ball to the baseline, and Arbeloa stepped in and made a pass."
"Dzeko grabbed the point, but the ball was blocked and did not leave the penalty area."
"Jesse kicks up and hits again!"
"The ball is scored again!!!"
"Three to zero!"
"Real Madrid currently leads Granada 3-0."
"This is a goal from young player Jese."
"In the first half, Real Madrid's offense could be described as overwhelming, and it didn't give Granada any chance to breathe."
"We saw that in the first 24 minutes, Real Madrid had a ball possession rate of 76%, which is a very surprising statistic. At the same time, Real Madrid also shot 8 shots, an average of one shot every three minutes.
There were five shots on target, which was very efficient.”
"Of course, this has something to do with Granada's tactics. At their home court, they did not adopt strict defense tactics, but tried to attack and penetrate Real Madrid's defense."
"Grenada also had two shots, but unfortunately, neither of them threatened Courtois' goal."
…
Forty-four minutes…
"Granada's attack from the right hit Real Madrid's left."
"The first half is about to end, look at the home team's offense this time."
"I tried to pass the ball, but Casemiro blocked it and the ball bounced high."
"Marcos Alonso headed the ball back, but it didn't go far."
"Still fighting, Casemiro passed the ball with his back and passed it in front of Pogba."
"Pogba chased forward, got ahead of the defensive player, poked Isco, and inserted himself into the inside space."
"Isco made a cross, and Pogba moved forward with the ball and came to the outside of the penalty area."
"Pull Dzeko out and see how Real Madrid will cooperate this time."
"Pogba passed the curved ball diagonally behind him with his left foot. Jesus stepped in and headed the ball very fast."
"The ball went in!!!"
"Two goals!!"
"Hesse!"
"This young player from Real Madrid scored twice."
"He should be grateful to Pogba. This pass was very comfortable. After Jesus stepped in, he directly headed the ball and the ball went in."
"This is the value of Pogba, a midfielder worth up to 60 million euros."
…
Fifty-sixth minute of the second half...
"It was Real Madrid's attack again. Arbeloa came up from the right and passed it to Jese."
"There is no chance, pass it back and give it to Verratti."
"Move to the left, or give it to Marcos Alonso."
"Pass forward to Isco and try to pass the ball into the penalty area to find Dzeko."
"The defensive player headed the ball to clear the ball, but it still landed on the outside. Pogba stopped the ball, adjusted, and shot directly from a long distance!"
"Pogba, world wave!!!"
"Five to zero!!!"
"My God, this shot was thirty meters away from the goal. Pogba went straight through Yang and used a sudden world wave to break Granada's goal again."
"Real Madrid's 60 million gentleman has been completely exploited by Gao Shen!"
"This is already two consecutive games in which Pogba has contributed wonderful performances."
…………
…………
When Barcelona was away at the Rose Garden and defeated Malaga 1-0 with difficulty, Real Madrid beat Granada 6-0 away from home.
After Pogba's world wave, Varane also relied on a corner kick to create a melee in the penalty area and took advantage of the chaos to make a sneak attack.
Real Madrid beat Granada 6-0 away from home.
On one side is Barcelona's difficult victory, on the other side is Real Madrid's perfect victory. The two teams have shown completely different trends from the beginning of the season.
Especially for Real Madrid. This season, this group of young players who have high hopes have performed amazingly in two consecutive games and left a deep impression on everyone.
Especially the newly joined Paul Pogba, Mr. 60 Million, has continuously performed wonderful goals and assists, and also demonstrated his organizational and planning abilities in the midfield. Not only the whole of Spain, but also the
European football was amazed.
Even many media and fans who previously questioned Pogba's worth now have to say that the 60 million euros are really worth it.
At the post-match press conference, Granada's Spanish coach Alcaraz made no secret of his admiration for Pogba, believing that he is the most threatening star in the Real Madrid team.
"I really can't believe that he is only twenty years old."
"He looks like a very mature and stable world-class midfielder. I have no doubt that he has the ability to impact Real Madrid's main force."
In fact, Pogba has started two consecutive rounds at Real Madrid and played the entire game.
He even directly won the Man of the Match award in his second La Liga game, beating Jese who scored twice.
Gao Shen was not surprised at all by this, and he even believed that Pogba had not yet given his best performance.
"I have no doubts about what he's done so far, but I think he can do better, across the board."
Regarding the two consecutive wins from La Liga, Gao Shen said it was normal.
Neither Real Betis nor Granada are teams that can threaten Real Madrid.
Although it is gratifying to win by a big score, what Gao Shen pays most attention to right now is the second leg of the Spanish Super Cup at Camp Nou.
"Beating Barcelona at Camp Nou and winning the championship will be a wonderful experience for us!"
Gao Shen's words further hit Barcelona.
The Catalan media, in particular, frantically attacked Gao Shen, believing that he lacked respect for Barcelona.
Barcelona fans even threatened to kill Gao Shen at the Camp Nou.
However, many media revealed that Barcelona players suggested that Martino adopt tactics more familiar to the team to face Real Madrid's challenge.
"Barcelona's players all believe that in order to reverse the situation at Camp Nou, Barcelona needs to find the football they are most familiar with."
"Especially with Busquets out."
The yellow cards in the Copa del Rey and La Liga are interchangeable, but the red cards are different.
Therefore, Busquets' red card in the first round will lead to his absence in the second round.
This will be a huge blow to Barcelona.
And Gao Shen did make a fuss about this.
During the game, Martino reversed the tactics of the first round and began to adopt a more Barcelona tactical style, steadily controlling the ball and using the trident of Neymar, Cesc Fabregas and Messi to attack Real Madrid.
But Gao Shen also saw the clues. Since Barcelona wanted to control the ball, Real Madrid took the initiative to give up the ball and shrink the defense on the three lines, further compressing the space of Barcelona's front trident.
As a result, the cross-positioning between Cesc Fabregas and Messi carefully prepared by Martino in the first round was invalidated.
Real Madrid, on the other hand, was holding firm and waiting for the opportunity to counterattack.
In the 34th minute, Real Madrid completed a steal outside the penalty area and launched a quick counterattack.
Ronaldo dribbled the ball to the left side of the frontcourt and sent the ball into the penalty area.
Benzema leaned on Pique on the left side of the penalty area and caught the ball, but failed to pose a threat. He was forced to turn around to protect the ball, and then passed the ball back to Di Maria on the right side of the arc.
Di Maria, who was sprinting all the way, stopped the ball, but still had no chance, so he passed the ball crosswise.
At this moment, Toni Kroos stepped in from behind, faced Di Maria's cross, stopped, pulled the lever, and pushed.
The football was like a cannonball, sticking to the grass and drilling into the lower right corner of Barcelona's goal at a very fast speed.
Goalkeeper Valdez was positioned to the left and was completely helpless against the sudden long shot.
The top area of the arc at the front of the penalty area is where Busquets usually squats.
But in the face of Real Madrid's quick counterattack, Alexander Song retreated too far.
Subsequently, no matter how Barcelona passed and controlled the ball, Real Madrid remained unmoved and even frequently launched threatening counterattacks.
Although Barcelona gained possession of the ball, it was difficult to send the ball into Real Madrid's hinterland and failed to pose a threat.
In the end, I watched helplessly as Real Madrid won a 1-0 victory at Camp Nou.
With a total score of 5 to 1, Real Madrid defeated Barcelona and won the Spanish Super Cup!
When the final whistle sounded, Camp Nou was booed.
But this will not affect the joy of Real Madrid lifting the Spanish Super Cup at all.
The louder the Barcelona fans booed, the more energetic the Real Madrid players celebrated!
