1305 Injury Wave

While Real Madrid defeated Malaga 2-0 at home, Barcelona also took the lead in the home court. With Cristiano Ronaldo's double score, they defeated the newly promoted Las Palmas 2-1.

Strictly speaking, such a game is not satisfactory, especially at the Camp Nou Stadium. However, after just experiencing a one-to-four away defeat to Vigo Celta, being able to get out of the dilemma with a victory is also a worthy result.

What is really regrettable is that Barcelona's number one star Messi was injured after only eight minutes of playing.

Three minutes into the game, Messi fell to the ground while dribbling the ball from the right side of the penalty area and rushed towards the goal, receiving treatment from the team doctor, but this time it did not attract attention and he remained on the court to continue the game.

But five minutes later, Messi fell to the ground and everyone realized the seriousness of the problem.

Subsequently, Messi went to the hospital for examination as soon as possible. The result was that the injury to the medial collateral ligament of the left knee caused severe pain and swelling on the medial and lateral knee joints, and was expected to be absent for at least two months.

Such news is undoubtedly a tragedy for Barcelona, ​​which is in poor condition recently, and it has once again aroused doubts from outside media and fans about the Barcelona management, because the current thickness of Barcelona's lineup is too thin.

Even the Barcelona mouthpiece Daily Sports Daily raised questions after the game, believing that there was a problem with Barcelona's superstar strategy?

"When Real Madrid used as a substitute to let stars such as Yang Yang and Hazard take a rest and they can beat Malaga 2-0 at home, Barcelona allowed Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar to play all the games, and even seriously injured, which is something we must reflect on!"

Louis Enrique also expressed helplessly after the game that he also hoped that the team could rotate significantly like Real Madrid, so that every player could get more and better performance opportunities, and also gave the main players more rest time.

"The damage FIFA has caused to us is similar to injuries, but we will not be easily defeated. We will work harder, and we will not change our playing style. We firmly believe that we can overcome this hurdle."

What Luis Enrique is obviously not just the fifa virus, but also pointed the finger at FIFA's transfer ban, believing that it was the transfer ban that made Barcelona unable to bring in players and was forced to fight continuously with its current lineup.

Not only the head coach, but also Barcelona midfielder Busquets also pointed his finger at FIFA, believing that the team's injury was more due to FIFA's punishment, which forced the players to fight with fatigue.

Which is right and wrong is not something that can be clearly explained by just a few words, but Messi's serious injury has attracted widespread attention from the outside media and fans, and countless people have sent blessings to Messi.

Yang Yang personally gave his blessings on his Twitter and Weibo.

"Leo, I hope you can recover as soon as possible, my friend! I hope you can return in the best condition and I'll wait for you at the Bernabeu!"

Messi also responded on Twitter after Yang Yang tagged him, "Thank you, I'll be back soon!"

On the evening of September 30, in the second round of the Champions League group stage, Real Madrid challenged Malmö away.

Just three minutes into the game, Tony Kroos received a cross from Carvajal from the right from the outside of the penalty area, and used a long shot to penetrate Malmo's goal, opening the first record for Real Madrid.

In the 14th minute, Modric made a straight pass, and Di Maria entered the penalty area from the right, and shot with his left foot, 2-0.

After the second half of the game, it was another pass from Modric. Yang Yang scored a goal in the 50th minute, three to zero.

Later, Marcelo assisted Di Maria to score a goal in the 68th minute, and Vasquez, who came on the bench, also scored a goal in the 82nd minute. In the end, Real Madrid defeated Malmo 5-0 away and won two consecutive victories in the Champions League group stage.

Di Maria scored twice and performed very well.

In the first round, he defeated Donetsk Miners four to zero at home, and in the second round, he defeated Malmo 5 to zero away. Although his opponents were not strong, Real Madrid's attack firepower was still quite strong, which also allowed everyone to see Real Madrid's powerful attack power.

More importantly, since the first round of the league this season, Real Madrid has not lost a single shot so far. Not only has the offensive firepower been significantly improved, but the defensive level has also been further strengthened.

The outside media and fans were surprised by the changes brought about by Yang Yang and Zidane's coaching, but within Real Madrid, they were very clear that the team's change came from the players' tactical execution and their physical fitness. With the combination of the two, Real Madrid's running distance in each game has been significantly improved compared to last season.

Although it is far from reaching what Pentus said, the average running distance of 13 kilometers per game, the facts have proved that this path is right. As long as Real Madrid runs as many opponents, it can completely crush all opponents with their overall strength and personal ability advantages and be invincible.

At the same time, it is worth noting that after Casemiro returned to the team, he was soon valued and performed very stably and outstandingly, and even began to pose a competitive threat to Mascherano, vaguely showing the momentum of scrambling for power.

...

After Messi was seriously injured and absent, Barcelona was in a mess.

In the game against Leverkusen at home, Barcelona conceded the goal in just twenty minutes of the game.

In the 60th minute, main midfielder Iniesta was injured.

Then the stalemate continued until the 80th minute, Roberto equalized the score for Barcelona. Two minutes later, Cristiano Ronaldo scored a reverse goal.

With two goals in three minutes, Barcelona reversed Leverkusen 2-1 at home, but Iniesta's injury also cast a shadow on Barcelona again, and it is expected to be out of the game for more than a month.

Having suffered from continuous injuries, Barcelona ushered in the seventh round of the game on the weekend, challenging Sevilla away.

Although it was a away game, Barcelona still controlled the game and created opportunities continuously. In the first half, Cristiano Ronaldo scored a goal, but was invalid due to offside. Then Neymar and Cristiano Ronaldo attacked continuously, either sliding out the goal or hitting the post.

In the second half, Sevilla took the lead in taking advantage of the counterattack opportunity and scored two goals in just six minutes.

Although Barcelona scored a penalty kick in the 74th minute, Neymar failed to turn the situation around in the end.

The result of the game was that Barcelona lost 1-2 to Sevilla away and suffered another defeat.

...

Barcelona is suffering from injuries and Real Madrid is also having trouble.

The Madrid city derby will be welcomed on the weekend.

Atletico Madrid performed poorly in the mid-week Champions League group stage, losing to Benfica of the Portuguese Super League 1-2 at home, resulting in their performance being very brave in playing against Real Madrid in this game.

In the 22nd minute of the first half, Ramos, who returned from injury, made a foul while stealing in the penalty area and was awarded a penalty kick.

Griezmann's penalty kick was saved by Navas, and the competition between Real Madrid's two goalkeepers led to both of them maintaining good shape.

Before the end of the first half, Yang Yang pierced through Atletico Madrid's goal with a direct free kick, opening the first record for Real Madrid.

Unfortunately, in the 41st minute, Carvajal suffered a knee injury and was forced to leave the field. Since Danilo was also injured, Zidane could only replace Carvajal with Nacho.

Just nine minutes into the second half, Marcelo made a cross from the left. Yang Yang attracted two Atletico central defenders to defend, creating an opportunity for Suarez at the back point. The unguarded Uruguayan striker made a close-range shot and scored another goal for Real Madrid.

In the end, Real Madrid narrowly defeated Atletico Madrid 2-0 and won another three-pointer away.

After the game, after detailed tests, Kavajal's right ankle tendon was injured and he was expected to be absent for three to four weeks.

However, Colombian player James Rodriguez, who had finally left the medical room and participated in the team's joint training, had an old injury relapsed during training and would be absent for at least two more weeks.

Fortunately, after the seventh round of La Liga, the European League will be suspended again, ushering in a two-week national team match day.

Whether it is Carvajal or James Rodriguez, they all missed the national team game due to injuries and stayed in Madrid to recover from injuries. This may not be good news for the national team, but it is good for Real Madrid.

Two weeks later, most of the injured in the team recovered.

Yang Yang and several Chinese internationals did not fly back to China, but flew directly from Europe to the Middle East.

In order to better prepare for this key game against Qatar, the national team arranged the training site in Dubai, the Middle East.

After Yang Yang and other international players arrived, they rested for five days and welcomed the fourth game of the top 40 on October 8, which was also a key game, challenging Qatar away.

Due to injuries, the national team was not in a complete position this time, and players such as Gao Lin and Feng Xiaoting were unable to participate, resulting in insufficient personnel in the team. Queros's deployment was also mainly based on defense.

Qatar has many naturalized players and has good personal abilities, so the Chinese team has to pay attention to it.

With the overall defense, the Chinese team did not give Qatar a good opportunity in the first half, but they did not create many good opportunities. Yang Yang ran back and forth in the frontcourt, more in series and support, but failed to get good support.

But in the 44th minute, when the first half was about to end, Zhang Chengdong dribbled the ball from the right and made an attack. After midfielder Zhou Haibin moved to the left, Hao Junmin made a cross into the penalty area. Yang Yang beat the Qatar defender in the middle of the penalty area and headed the ball, hitting a very tricky back point and directly drilled into Qatar's goal.

This was the most threatening attack for the Chinese team in the first half, and it was also the first threatening shooting opportunity that Yang Yang got. He seized the opportunity steadily and scored a goal for the Chinese team.

In the end, the Chinese team also defeated Qatar one-to-zero away with this goal by Yang Yang.
