After playing Athletic Belbao away, Real Madrid returned to Madrid overnight.

On the way back, the team also received the latest La Liga report. The most shocking thing was that Barcelona lost 1-4 to Vigo Celta away, which was definitely a big upset.

So, after arriving in Valdebebas, Zidane and Yang Yang convened the coaching staff to stay for a meeting and watched the video of this unpopular game together. After only 60 minutes, Barcelona fell behind zero to three, and everyone felt that there was no need to continue watching.

"This is a crushing defeat, a complete crushing defeat." Zidane concluded with a serious expression.

Real Madrid should of course be happy to see Barcelona lose, but no one can be happy because no one knows when Real Madrid will suddenly encounter a crushing defeat like Barcelona, ​​which no one can predict. All they can do is try to avoid it.

Another thing is to analyze why Barcelona suffered such a crushing defeat?

"The Valledos Stadium has always been a away game that Barcelona is very afraid of." Yang Yang took Zidane's words and kept searching for various past data in his mind. "If I remember correctly, Barcelona narrowly won with Mathieu's goal last season, but lost to Vigo Celta at this stadium with a goal of 0 to 1."

As soon as Yang Yang finished speaking, David Betoni continued, "Yes, indeed, in the last season's Camp Nou battle, Vigo Celta's goal was also from Nolito's assist. This summer, after Pedro left Chelsea, Barcelona once wanted to introduce Nolito. Luis Enrique admired him very much and wanted to start the 18 million euro buyout clause in Nolito's contract, but it was left alone for various reasons."

The reason why Barcelona suffered a crushing defeat in this game was precisely because of Nolito.

In the 26th minute of the first half, Mallor made a cross from the right, and Nolito scored a small angle arc ball on the left side of the penalty area.

The goalkeeper Ter Stegen has little problem with this goal conceding. Instead, the right back Alves has a big problem. The Brazilian right back, who is 32 years old, has dropped significantly and made a major mistake.

It was Alves' sluggish that Nolito completely let go. Four minutes later, Pique made a pass near the center circle and was intercepted. Nolito headed the ball, Aspass successfully counterattacked and scored a goal from the edge of the penalty area.

With two goals in five minutes, Vigo Celta put Barcelona in panic.

Then, Vigo Celta began to defend quickly and adopt a quick counterattack strategy.

In the 56th minute of the second half, Nolito took the ball from the outside of his penalty area and gave a straight pass. Aspas once again successfully counterattacked and ran wildly in the half to form a single shot, pushing the ball near the penalty spot to secure the victory.

In the 80th minute, Messi made a precise pass, Neymar scored a goal from a small angle, and scored a game. But just three minutes later, Mallor made a cross from the right, Pique made an interception mistake, and Guideti, who was unguarded behind him, scored a goal in front of the small penalty area, four-to-one.

Later, Guedti even had a chance to kick in the penalty area and almost scored another goal.

It can be said that if Vigo Celta had not had the ability to seize opportunities, this game would have been a big score loss, and it would have been a nightmare for Barcelona.

...

"Now, Barcelona has lost and Atletico Madrid has lost. After five rounds, we are ranked first in La Liga, winning all five games. Behind us are Vigo Celta and Villarrel, who have four wins and one draw."

"Atlancia Madrid has four wins and one loss, and it lost to Barcelona, ​​and Barcelona also has four wins and one loss. Judging from this situation, Vigo Celta and Villarreal will fall sooner or later, and La Liga is still a battle for the top three."

Zidane made his own judgment on the current La Liga situation. Vigo Celta and Villarrel's rankings are temporary. No matter their overall strength or bench thickness, they will not have the chance to occupy the top three seats for a long time. This is not realistic. Atletico Madrid and Barcelona will soon counterattack.

If you want to talk about La Liga this season, the most surprising thing is Valencia.

The Bat Legion invested huge sums of money this summer, introducing many players to strengthen the overall strength of the team. However, after five rounds of games, they only achieved a record of one win, three draws and one loss, ranking tenth in La Liga. This is really shocking and is completely inconsistent with their summer investment.

"I think the reason for Barcelona's big defeat is not complicated." David Betoni, an analyst for the team, took the lead in expressing his opinion.

"First of all, it's exhaustion. Like us, Barcelona is a team with many international players. Their first five rounds of the league are not weak. They play Athletic Bilbao away, Malaga at home, Atletico Madrid away, and Vigo Celta away, are all tough battles. In addition, there are two weeks of national team competitions in the middle, which consumes a lot of money."

"The second point is injury, Barcelona's bench lineup is already very bad. Now three casualties, including Bravo and Rafinia, are absent, have a great impact on Barcelona, ​​resulting in some of them being unavailable."

"The third point is the transfer ban. Both Turan and Vidal were unable to get there. They originally wanted to get Nolito, but they didn't come. Instead, they made Nolito stage a wonderful slaughter scene in Vigo Celta."

Before David Betoni finished speaking, Zidane turned his head and glanced at Yang Yang. The two looked at each other and smiled at each other. After the close friend finished speaking, Zidane quickly took over the conversation.

"When it comes to fatigue, we are not inferior to Barcelona. We even played three more Super Cup games earlier in the season. We have not met Atletico Madrid in the league, but our opponents also have Athletic Bilbao and a difficult team like Espanyol are not at all lost to Barcelona."

"As for the injuries, they injured three, and we injured four or five, and they were not much better. However, our bench thickness does have an advantage over the opponent. However, it must be noted that the transfer ban has been around for a long time, but why did Barcelona let Pedro go? This may be more important to consider Barcelona's financial and management decisions."

David Betoni shook his head with a wry smile. What Zidane said did make some sense.

To put it bluntly, Barcelona's own factors are the most critical to the current major defeat.

Zidane and David Betoni are good friends. They don’t have to worry about their conversation. Yang Yang naturally won’t interfere. What he is more interested in is Vigo Celta’s tactical style of restraining Barcelona.

"Vigo Celta has always been known as Barcelona in La Liga. The high-level pressing and oppression, strict tactical discipline, excellent position sense, and skillful pass control have all been played in this game."

Yang Yang said this and raised a piece of data in his hand. "You can take a look at Vigo Celta's ball possession rate has reached 48%. Whether it is the success rate of passing, the key pass or the number of shots, they are just as good as Barcelona, ​​which means they are head-on with Barcelona."

Barcelona's problem has always been very obvious, that is, the frontcourt has the most luxurious offensive combination in the world, but the weakness is also clear, that is, their defense is very fragile, so some people say that Barcelona is very similar to the first phase of the Galaxy Battleships back then, with beautiful frontcourts and thin backcourts as thin as paper.

But the key to the problem is how to directly face Barcelona's fragile defense line while resisting Barcelona's attack?

Vigo Celta undoubtedly gives a more interesting idea.

"I think this game is worth our study because I always believe that although football is round and everything is possible, everything has certain necessity, and we need to seize the inevitable factors in this big defeat."

In the twelfth round of La Liga, in late November, Real Madrid will play against Barcelona at home. The Galaxy needs to find tactics to restrain Barcelona before this game.

On the evening of September 26, the Bernabeu Stadium.

In the sixth round of La Liga, Real Madrid faced Malaga at home.

Since he will go to Sweden in the midweek and challenge Malmö away, this is the second game of the Champions League group stage, and Real Madrid also attaches great importance to it, because the team hopes to suppress Paris Saint-Germain and advance as the top spot in the group, which requires every game to strive to get three points.

In the home game against Malaga, Zidane and Yang Yang decided to conduct a large rotation, and young player Hesse replaced Yang Yang.

After the game started, Real Madrid controlled the game, but Malaga adopted a double midfielder formation of 4231, and defended very firmly on the away game, not giving Real Madrid any chance.

In the 60th minute, Hesse was injured and Vasquez came on as a substitute.

Real Madrid firmly suppressed Malaga throughout the game, and the away team had few opportunities to fight back.

In the 66th minute, after Modric and Suarez collided with the wall, Suarez suddenly shot, and the opponent's goalkeeper Cameni saved it from the side, Isco made a scoop on the right side of the penalty area, and Wiligton cleared the ball near the goal line, but the referee signaled that the kick had completely crossed the line, and Real Madrid led with one goal.

The sudden goal made Zidane give up the decision to replace Yang Yang. Yang Yang continued to sit on the bench, but walked to the front from time to time to discuss and command the team with Zidane.

This is also his first time playing the role of chief assistant coach this season, and he frequently appears in live TV scenes.

In the 90th minute, Real Madrid made another attack.

Modric made a cross from the right side of the penalty area, and Isco scored in front of the goal, scoring twice, helping Real Madrid lead with two goals.

The Malaga players protested to the referee, believing that Suarez and Vosques were offside, but neither of these two players participated in the offense, and Modric, who was directly involved in the offense, did not offside. Therefore, the referee rejected the protests of the Malaga players and the penalty was valid.

The video playback of the game after the game also proves that although the two goals in the game are controversial, there is no problem.

However, the controversy that Isco qualified both goals was also jokingly jokingly by the media after the game, and was nicknamed Isco's ghost ball.

In the end, Real Madrid defeated Malaga 2-0 with Isco's double score, winning six consecutive victories at the beginning of the league.
