This is a supplementary match in the 16th round of La Liga.

Since Real Madrid went to Morocco to participate in the Club World Cup in mid-December, the 16th round of La Liga match against Sevilla had to be postponed to early February, which made Real Madrid's originally compact schedule, which had already fought on the third line, more intensive.

It can be said that from the beginning of the season, except for a week off during Christmas, Real Madrid basically had double games a week, and the schedule was very intensive, which put huge pressure on the team.

After the winter break, the hidden dangers brought by intensive schedules soon broke out.

In the eighth minute of the game, Ramos sat on the grass, covering his left thigh, looking quite painful. The team doctor quickly entered the room for examination and signaled to replace the coach Ancelotti on the sidelines.

Substitute Nacho replaced Ramos, and Real Madrid was forced to make substitutions in just the eighth minute.

In the 12th minute, Marcelo made a cross from the left, and Jamele Rodriguez, who successfully counterattacked, jumped to the top on the edge of the small penalty area, headed the ball, and scored for Real Madrid's first record and took the lead.

After breaking the deadlock, the game began to show openness, and both teams played unrestrainedly and had a faster pace.

But in the 27th minute, James Rodriguez was also injured and could not hold on to the game, indicating that the sideline coaching staff must make substitutions, so young player Hesse was replaced by a substitute.

In less than half an hour, Real Madrid replaced two players in a row, and they were basically injured without physical collisions with their opponents, which also makes people feel very worried, because this often means that the injury is not simple.

In the 36th minute, Suarez pulled the ball to the right and made a cross. Isco failed to stop the ball in the middle, but Hesse at the back point ran to the position cleverly and easily shot, hitting 2-0.

The score remained until the 80th minute of the second half, when Sevilla scored a goal.

In the end, Real Madrid narrowly defeated Sevilla 2-1 at home.

However, it is obvious that everyone's attention is on the injured.

In less than half an hour, it was absolutely not ordinary to injure two players in a row.

What is really worrying is that the wave of injuries is affecting Real Madrid.

...

As soon as the game against Sevilla ended, the injury report on James Rodriguez came out.

The fifth metatarsal fracture of the right foot must be performed immediately and is expected to be absent for at least two to three months.

Ramos' left leg muscle strain is currently unknown. It is expected to be checked clearly within 48 hours. It is conservatively estimated that it will be absent for one month.

Both players will be absent for one or two months due to injury, which will have a great impact on Real Madrid, because there are already many injured people in Real Madrid.

Modric, who was injured in the national team in November last year, has not yet recovered from injury. As for when he can return, the team doctor has not given an accurate timetable; Xavi Martinez was injured in the ribs and conservatively estimated that it would take a month to rest; Danilo was also injured in previous training, and this time he failed to make the roster against Sevilla.

In addition to injury, there is also a suspension.

The main left-back Marcelo received a yellow card against Sevilla. He will be suspended for one round and will at least miss the game against Atletico Madrid.

In other words, at least six main players will be absent in the next weekend of Atletico Madrid.

Before the game started, Real Madrid had already lost most of its main lineup. What should we do to fight against the Madrid and avenge the revenge at the beginning of the season?

More importantly, after playing Atletico Madrid, the next two rounds of the King's Cup semi-finals were the strong Villarrell, and after the King's Cup semi-finals, the Champions League quarterfinals were knockout matches again.

It can be said that Real Madrid's schedule is so dense that it is no match for the world football world.

Although Ancelotti increased the rotation during the winter break, he still had to ensure the team's competitiveness, so he had to take turns to take turns, such as playing Sevilla, Yang Yang took a rotation rest, Suarez started, and sometimes the other way around.

But even so, the players' game pressure is still very high, especially in the strong dialogue.

For example, next time, Villarrell and Champions League top 16 opponent Schalke 04, does Ancelotti still dare to rotate like this?

The answer is very simple. At least I dare not do it in the first round. The second round also depends on the score of the first round.

In this case, the pressure on the players will inevitably be very high.

The team was smooth sailing in the first half, and there seemed to be no injuries. Only Modric was seriously injured, but in the second half, many problems were exposed, especially for some players participating in the World Cup, the risk of injury would be greater.

Tony Cross had reacted before that his body was very tired because he had not received a good rest since last season. In this case, how should he ensure his condition?

On the contrary, Yang Yang did not participate in the competition in the first month of the season, which made his situation better.

The competition is intensive, the schedule is compact, and the team is suffering from many injuries, but the game has to continue.

Many media, including Ass, believe that Real Madrid's coaching staff should consider giving up some optional games, such as the King's Cup.

The prize money is very small and the value is also very useless. The teams that entered the semi-finals are Real Madrid, Villarre, Athletic Bilbao and Espanyol. No matter how you look at it, they are not considered to be a valuable event in La Liga, right?

It can be said that playing the King's Cup is purely for honor.

Professional football emphasizes choices. When the team has a wave of injuries, it will be a bit more worthwhile to affect the league's leadership and the Champions League for a honor.

Regarding this, the coaching staff is obviously hesitating and weighing.

To put it bluntly, professional football emphasizes interests.

…………

…………

The afternoon of the next day after playing Sevilla, Real Madrid players received the news that Jamele Rodriguez's surgery was successful. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief and were grateful for the Colombian players.

Although many people are competing with him, as professional players, no one is willing to deal with injuries.

It can be said that in the face of injuries, professional players have the same position.

Captain Ramos did not come to train either. He is currently a wounded soldier and needs a good rest. Although he is not as good as James Rodriguez in a wheelchair, he also needs to use crutches.

Before the training class began, Marcelo, who was temporarily captain, summoned everyone to seek opinions.

Although I didn't say it directly, it was obvious that the coaching staff wanted to know what the players thought about the next schedule.

But surprisingly, after Marcelo finished speaking, there was silence in the locker room and no one spoke.

"What's going on? Everyone says it's okay, tell me what you think, and say whatever you have." Marcelo encouraged.

But everyone was still silent, and many people even lowered their heads so that people would not see his expression clearly.

Since the winter break, Real Madrid has indeed encountered continuous ups and downs, and the experience has been much more difficult than the first half, but this is also the norm for the whole season, because it is too long, almost a year.

Not to mention a professional player, even an ordinary person or a student, who can guarantee that his working or learning status will remain stable for up to ten months?

"Why no one spoke?" Marcelo was a little anxious.

But everyone in the locker room was still silent.

Maybe they are all confused, maybe they know but don’t want to say it, maybe they dare not say it, or maybe they don’t know how to say it...

But Yang Yang felt that at this time, what Real Madrid needs most is not democracy, not everyone comes forward to express their opinions, but someone comes forward to tell them what to do next and lead them out of this step and out of the predicament.

This should have been the responsibility of the captain, but since Raul left, Casillas was a goalkeeper and often did not work together in training. Ramos was injured and Marcelo could not hold back the situation...

Thinking of this layer, Yang Yang sighed in his heart and stood up.

"Since I don't want to say it, then I'll say it first."

As soon as Yang Yang stood up, everyone in the audience raised their heads and looked at him.

Obviously, they were all waiting for Yang Yang's next words.

"The triple crown is an honor, but it is not unprecedented. Before us, many teams have won the triple crown, and I even won the four crowns at Liverpool."

"But..." Yang Yang suddenly emphasized his tone, "The defending triple crown has never been achieved. I can guarantee that all the teams that have successfully won the triple crown must have also aimed at defending the triple crown in the season that followed, but they will encounter various difficulties and obstacles in the season, which will ultimately lead to their inability to achieve it."

Speaking of this, Yang Yang let out a light breath and slowed down his tone, "Everyone should still remember that more than a month ago, in the honor room of Bernabeu, we were at Real Madrid's Christmas lunch. We promised to Real Madrid TV that we would do our best to defend the triple crown. Do you still remember?"

Many people nodded, and some were moved.

Real Madrid was unstoppable in the first half, and everyone was full of confidence. At the Christmas luncheon more than a month ago, no one would see today's predicament. At that time, they were full of confidence and morale, and they could even be said to be arrogant.

But now...

"Difficulty always exists. We didn't encounter difficulties last season? If we choose to escape because of difficulties and choose an easy route, then how did we get the triple crown last season? How did we get the triple crown in the previous time? Have you forgotten?"

Faced with Yang Yang's questioning, the locker room was still silent, but the player's expression was obviously different from before.

Without the sluggishness that was just now, they are all trying to regain their confidence and fighting spirit.

None of the players who can come to Real Madrid are simple, they are all the top players in the world today.

"I want me to say, don't worry about the multi-line battle, don't say that the weight of the King's Cup is not important. No matter how important it is, it is also a championship trophy. For our Real Madrid and for our Real Madrid players, as long as it is a championship trophy, we will never allow it to slip through our fingers."
