90 If you have the ability, go and scold Gao Shen! 【Kneeling
From the press conference after the game, we can see the conflicting feelings of the Spanish media and Real Madrid fans towards Gao Shen.
On the one hand, since Gao Shen took over the team, the results have skyrocketed, winning consecutive victories, whether it is reversing Arsenal, defeating Barcelona away from home, eliminating Juventus in two rounds, or even shortening the gap in the standings, these are real achievements.
of.
If you pick any of these achievements and compare them to other teams in other leagues, they will be talked about by fans.
But Gao Shen was coaching Real Madrid, the greatest club of the 20th century.
Real Madrid, coached by Gao Shen, played too conservatively. Even if they scored few goals, the game process was generally dull. Many games even made people sleepy and unmotivated at all.
Is this still the Real Madrid that fans and the media are familiar with?
But the crux of the contradiction is that actually the media and the fans themselves know it.
After so many turmoils and so many games this season, they all know clearly that Real Madrid's current strength is no longer the invincible Galacticos in European football at its peak.
The Galacticos were on the verge of sinking long ago, and Figo was sold to Inter Milan.
Therefore, the media and fans are aware of the current situation of the team and know that Gao Shen's approach is a wise choice, but they just can't accept it and they just can't help but want to scold him.
Because this is not the Real Madrid they want and expect.
Are they talking about Gao Shen?
No, they are criticizing the ruthless reality.
The unlucky Maqueda did not receive the applause and flowers he expected at the press conference. Instead, he was left speechless by the angry media. In particular, a well-known Madrid media directly stood up and pointed at Maqueda.
Da's nose roared: "We don't want to see you, call Gao Shen out!"
At that moment, Maqueda's heart collapsed.
I'm just an unlucky tool, why do you bother to embarrass me like this?
If you have the ability, go ahead and scold Gao Shen!
…
The next day, a very interesting scene appeared again in major Spanish media.
The reports and comments supporting Gao Shen and the reports and comments criticizing Gao Shen have once again started a war of words.
Those who support Gao Shen, headed by Alfredo, believe that Gao Shen's performance in Real Madrid is satisfactory enough. With Real Madrid's current situation, it is already a very rare achievement to be able to reach the semi-finals of the Champions League.
Alfredo even questioned in his column, "I don't know, with the team's current situation, how can they ask a head coach who takes over midway to bring the team back to the top?"
"Even Bosque, who they talk about so much, didn't rely on the defensive counterattack of the five backs when he took over the team in 2000, and finally won the Champions League?"
But skeptics believe that Gao Shen's biggest problem is that he is very conservative.
From the battle at the Bernabeu, especially around the 80-minute mark, it is not difficult to see that Real Madrid has the strength and ability to threaten Juventus, but Gao Shen focused on defense from beginning to end and was unwilling to invest troops on the offensive end.
As for the goal carefully designed by Gao Shen, they believed it was an accidental mistake by Juventus.
"Juventus's mistake contributed to Real Madrid's goal, but without Juventus's mistake, would Gao Shen and Capello have played to a 0-0 draw, eventually entering overtime and a penalty shootout?"
"This should be a high probability event!"
Skeptics believe that Real Madrid has the ability to control the game, compete for control, and proactively create more scoring opportunities. However, Gao Shen rejected this possibility. He blindly adopted a conservative attitude and waited with solid defense.
Opponent's mistakes.
"This is an ugly victory!"
Not only is the media divided into two factions, but even Real Madrid's celebrities are also divided into two factions.
For example, Real Madrid legend Mijatovic said in an interview with the media that although Real Madrid’s promotion is gratifying, the team’s playing style is indeed disappointing. “We could have played better and more aggressively.
of."
Del Bosque, who is also the former head coach of Real Madrid and was once considered to be a candidate for the head coach of Real Madrid, gave a rare interview to the media. He said that Gao Shen's coaching at Real Madrid left a deep impression on people.
"I don't think the outside world's evaluation of him is fair, because he has done a good enough job, but he still received too much criticism, and many people ignored his contribution to the team."
Del Bosque believes that he has never believed that Real Madrid won the Champions League in 2002 and 2002 because of their stars.
"I can't define who won my first Champions League with Real Madrid, Savio Redondo, Raul Morientes? Helguera or someone else? I can also tell everyone with great certainty.
, my second Champions League at Real Madrid was definitely not just due to Zidane and Figo."
But Del Bosque said that this is Real Madrid's current situation.
More and more media and fans are chasing Real Madrid because of the stars, not the team itself. They only value the stars and completely ignore the contributions of other people, even the head coach, to the team.
"I have heard people say more than once that Real Madrid, with its superstars, is turning into a team that can only play in the opening ceremony and not be seen in the closing ceremony. This is abnormal. But now, our young coach
The coach is working hard to bring this team to the closing ceremony, and as a result, the media and fans who say they support and love Real Madrid are blaming him."
"I can't understand this phenomenon, but I have to stand up and speak my mind."
Bosque stood up clearly and expressed his support for Gao Shen.
Former Real Madrid coach Camacho also stood up and supported Bosque's statement, believing that Gao Shen's proposition was correct.
Queiroz, the current Manchester United assistant coach and former Real Madrid coach, also said in an interview with the British media that what Gao Shen encountered was something he had experienced before at Real Madrid. It was a nightmare.
Even Arsenal head coach Arsene Wenger, who was recently eliminated from the Champions League by Real Madrid, spoke out for Gao Shen in London, believing that the media was too harsh on Gao Shen. “With the current lineup and age structure of Real Madrid, if we want to play well,
To win another game is almost an impossible task."
Wenger even jokingly said, "Gao Shen should be a little regretful now, he should have let Real Madrid fall in the top 16."
It has to be said that what Wenger said is also true.
Successive victories have made many people unrealistic and have forgotten what Real Madrid was like before Gao Shen took over. They have also forgotten how Real Madrid, which they said was full of superstars, was ruthlessly defeated by Arsenal at home.
humiliating.
This is called healing the scar and forgetting about the pain.
…
Unlike the polarization of public opinion in Spain, in Europe, especially Italy, the media is very unified.
That is, the sophisticated Real Madrid completed two outstanding duels. Not to mention Capello's Juventus, they also eliminated the Bianconeri from the Champions League through a well-designed goal.
Including authoritative media such as L'Equipe and Bild, they all praise Real Madrid when they mention it.
But for Capello's Juventus, all the media have criticized Juventus. The most important ones are Juventus' business philosophy and Capello's use of troops.
Turin Sports reported that Capello and Ibrahimovic were the two main culprits for the team's defeat.
Needless to say, Capello was criticized for his conservatism in the two rounds.
Although Juventus is invincible in Serie A, in the Champions League, they have failed to reach the top eight in a row. With such a lineup configuration, this is absolutely inappropriate. The Bianconeri are fully capable of winning the Champions League.
But Capello's conservatism ruined Juventus's good situation.
Ibrahimovic's biggest problem is that he did not meet the expectations of the outside world, especially at the Bernabeu. He only had one shot in the game. This is definitely not the performance that a Juventus forward should have. He is not worthy of the fans' support for him.
praise and expectations.
"If his feet were half as strong as his tone, he would have scored Real Madrid's goal long ago." Tuttosport mocked.
French newspaper L'Equipe took a wider perspective and believed that the two-round match between Juventus and Real Madrid fully demonstrated that today's Serie A league urgently needs a tactical innovation.
L’Equipe believes that Juventus’ 4-4-2 look uncompetitive compared to Real Madrid’s 4-2-31.
"After losing to Liverpool in 4,231 last season, Capello's team lost again in 4,231 this season. This is by no means an accident."
L'Equipe believes that the advanced team has obvious weaknesses and shortcomings, that is, the players' running ability is insufficient, and they are unable to run in a wide range and press at high positions like Liverpool, but their defense is still very well organized.
tight.
"Capello said at the post-match press conference that the reason why Juventus was eliminated was because the midfielder lost power, and the reason why the midfielder lost power, Capello believed that it was caused by the team's lineup, because he did not have a single player.
Named Zidane."
"I have to say that Capello's complaint is justified. Juventus has not introduced a high-level creative midfielder since sending Zidane away, so he was forced to let Nedvy go."
Virtue appears in the middle, which leads to a void on the left."
"This is not a situation that only exists now, but is caused by the overall philosophy of Juventus. As a European giant, Juventus's results in Serie A are very brilliant, but in the Champions League, they only won two Champions League titles.
But there were five runners-up.”
L'Equipe gave a set of data. Juventus has participated in the Champions League finals a total of seven times. This data is second only to Real Madrid, which has played 12 times, and AC Milan, which has played 10 times, and is tied with Bayern Munich in the history of the Champions League.
Bayern has won four Champions League titles.
L'Equipe stated that the problem with Juventus is that this team's playing style is too conservative and they need a revolutionary tactical innovation to inject fresh genes into this team to give it a new lease of life and keep pace with today's
tactical trends.
Regarding Real Madrid's Gao Shen, L'Equipe believes that Gao Shen will be the biggest surprise and surprise in European football this season.
"When he took office, no one in the world believed that he could lead the team out of trouble, but now, he has surprised everyone, even when facing the world's top coaches like Wenger and Capello.
, he was able to keep up with the odds, that’s what’s most surprising.”
