Two to two, Atletico Madrid equalized, and public opinion criticized Real Madrid after the game.

Ass believes that Real Madrid's trip to the Middle East makes the team very tired. This can be seen from the players' running distance. Whether it is playing Valencia or this game, Real Madrid's running distance is much less than that of its opponents, and this situation was difficult to see before.

Alfredo, editor-in-chief of Ass, said in a column that after Real Madrid lost two consecutive games in the early stage of this season, with Yang Yang's comeback, it soon ushered in a peak, with an amazing record of 22 consecutive victories. However, after the Club World Cup, the team entered a downward channel, as if it had changed overnight.

"Dubai's warm-up match lost to AC Milan 2-4, Ancelotti said the team did not do its best, especially many main players did not play, and then lost to Valencia 1-2 away in La Liga. Ancelotti still used this excuse as an excuse, but now, the away game draws Atletico Madrid 2-2, and Real Madrid sends all the main players, but their performance is still sluggish."

Alfredo said that if it weren't for Yang Yang's personal performance, Real Madrid would have difficulty getting away from Calderon Stadium.

In addition, Ass has also published a report specifically to point out the problems facing Real Madrid through data.

In the away game against Valencia, the running distance of Real Madrid was only 98 kilometers, creating the game with the least running distance this season. The running distance of opponent Valencia's opponent was 107 kilometers, nine kilometers more than Real Madrid, which means one more person.

In this game, Real Madrid's running distance is still not as good as that of its opponents, which made everyone realize that the problem Real Madrid is facing now is the players' physical fitness and consumption.

During Modric's injury, David Silva and Tony Cross became very important, but whether it was playing Valencia or Atletico Madrid, both players were in poor form, especially Tony Cross.

Ass revealed that after playing Atletico Madrid, Tony Cross took the initiative to confess in an interview that his physical fitness was indeed a problem, and the main reason was that he did not get a good rest throughout the summer, and then he started a continuous multi-line battle when he came to Real Madrid.

Unlike the Bundesliga, La Liga strictly speaking, there is no long winter break, and the Christmas holiday is only one week.

In addition to Tony Cross, James Rodriguez and Di Maria are also in similar situations. Almost all international players who participated in the World Cup have changed their states after the winter break.

This is definitely not an accident, but because the winter break interrupted their game rhythm, which triggered the originally lurking physical fitness crisis, which led to various problems that Real Madrid has so far.

In the game against Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid had less running distance than their opponents, but made more passes and catches than their opponents, which was very fatal.

"Ancelotti should find a solution to the problem as soon as possible!"

...

On the second day after playing Atletico Madrid, Yang Yang rarely accepted an interview with media reporters in Valdebebas.

During the interview, Yang Yang publicly expressed his support for head coach Ancelotti, and also explained the fighting spirit and confidence in Real Madrid's locker room. "We did encounter some problems, but who didn't? We all have the confidence to overcome all kinds of difficulties!"

Yang Yang also said that it is unfair to completely shirk the team to anyone when encountering various problems. We all have a responsibility, including me. But now the most important thing for us is not to shirk responsibility or take responsibility, but to solve these problems and get back on track as soon as possible.

Regarding how the team gets back on track, Yang Yang believes that Real Madrid should trust young substitutes more, increase rotation efforts, and help the team through this difficult trough through greater rotation.

Yang Yang was interviewed by the media and said that this was arranged by the club and was also approved by the coaching staff. Even his words were made in front of Valdano, Zidane and Ancelotti at the team's senior internal meeting in the afternoon.

He believes that De Bruyne, Isco, Ilia Lamendi, and Varane should get more opportunities.

In fact, Ancelotti is more cautious in treating young players, but he cannot be blamed.

Varane started in the Cup of del Rey against Atletico Madrid, but he made a mistake in the whole game. He even made a stop-off mistake and was intercepted by his French compatriot Griezmann and formed a single shot. If Navas hadn't attacked bravely, Real Madrid would not have taken away a 2-2 draw.

Yang Yang proposed this, but he believed that we should not give up because of the choke, and we should not stop reusing and cultivating Varane because of a mistake. Similarly, there are players such as Fermalen, Azpilicueta and Danilo, who are all very capable and should all get more opportunities.

"We are a whole, with more than 20 people in the team, each of which is quite excellent player, and each of them can contribute to the team. I think that as long as we give us trust, they will perform better and better."

Yang Yang's exclusive interview was quickly spread by the media, which attracted widespread discussion and was recognized by many media and fans, believing that Ancelotti's rotation was indeed lacking some courage.

But there are also media hypes in a low manner, believing that Yang Yang is forcing Ancelotti to give birth.

Little did he know that Yang Yang said the same thing long before the press conference, and Ancelotti also personally said that he would pay attention to it.

…………

On the afternoon of January 10, the 18th round of La Liga.

Real Madrid faces Espanyol at home.

Yang Yang won the start for Real Madrid, and Wu Lei, a Chinese player who transferred from Ajax to Espanyol last summer, also won the start, staged a Chinese derby for the first time in La Liga.

In this game, Ancelotti also responded to Yang Yang's call and conducted a large rotation, and even arranged a midfield combination of Isco, Ilia La Mendi and De Bruyne in the midfield.

Just ten minutes into the game, Real Madrid used a free kick in the frontcourt, and Suarez volleyed from the right side of the goal, breaking the goal of Espanyol and opening the first record for Real Madrid.

In the 28th minute, Yang Yang scored a direct free kick from 25 meters away, and once again broke the goal of Espanyol.

After the second half of the game, Isco made a straight pass in the 76th minute, Azpilicueta made a cross from the left, Fermuren stopped the ball and volleyed vigorously, scoring again.

In the end, Real Madrid defeated Espanyol three-to-zero, ending the decline of three unbeatable games.

After this game, Real Madrid's substitute players received unanimous praise, the midfielder performed very actively, and the defense line was also very stable. Yang Yang and Suarez each scored one goal on the forward line, which both improved significantly.

…………

…………

Real Madrid stopped the decline, but good news followed one after another.

First, on the day after playing Espanyol, UEFA announced the 2014 Best Team of the Year.

The goalkeeper is Neuer, the defense is Alaba, Ramos, Godin and Ram, the midfield is Tony Cross, Di Maria and Modric, and the front trident is Yang Yang, Suarez and Messi.

Real Madrid has six players selected, occupying half of the country and winning a lot of prizes.

However, the team's shortcomings were also shown on the defense line. Only Ramos was shortlisted, among which the left and right full-backs Carvajal and Marcelo were not selected, which is somewhat surprising.

Not only did UEFA's best team not be shortlisted, but even FIFA's best team in the World Professional Player Union were not shortlisted. This time, goalkeeper Neuer, defense lineup Ram, Thiago Silva, David Luis and Ramos, midfielder Iniesta, Tony Cross and Di Maria, frontcourt Yang Yang, Messi and Ronaldo.

It can be seen that FIFA's best team has taken into account the factors of the World Cup more.

Then, on January 12, at the award ceremony in Zurich, Switzerland, the Best Men's Football Coach was given to the German national team head coach Löw, which was basically a consistent operation, because Löw led the team to win the World Cup championship.

The Puskas award for the best goal was given to James Rodriguez, who defeated Yang Yang and Van Persie to win the prize, which also made Colombian players inexplicably, and he chose to dedicate the goal to all Colombians.

Miss World Football gave German midfielder Kessler, the captain of the double champion Wolfsburg women's football team.

The FIFA Golden Ball Award was given to Yang Yang, which was no suspense. Everyone even concluded early that there was no second choice except Yang Yang.

It is worth noting that although I had known that there was no hope of winning the award, both Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, or Neymar attended the Zurich awards ceremony.

At the press conference on the afternoon of the award ceremony, Messi was already congratulating Yang Yang in advance. He said that Yang Yang performed unparalleled in both the league and the World Cup, and he deserved the award.

Yang Yang took over the Golden Globes from the award presenter Henry. When he made his speech, he thanked all the people who voted, thanked his teammates in the national team and club, thanked the head coach, and finally he specially thanked his wife Su Ye who was not present.

"It's very hard to have a professional player's husband. In recent years, especially in recent years, after we had children, in order to allow me to focus on playing football, she even gave up her beloved career, worked hard behind me and silently supported me. I think she is the person who deserves the Golden Globe Award."

Everyone on the scene basically empathized with it.

Many people often ignore the sacrifices and efforts behind the stars when they see the dazzling side of the stars and the beautiful and glamorous side of the stars.

Even though Su Ye is still a Chinese actress who is popular in Hollywood, she is basically in a state of retirement from the film industry. Especially in the past year, she has stopped filming movies and has turned to take care of her family and children.
