879 Crisis

Yang Yang's injury hit Real Madrid very hard, especially in the team's offense.

Losing the most important offensive firepower point in the frontcourt and the team's best assist, any team's offense will inevitably be readjusted, which seriously affects Real Madrid's game.

After losing to Osasuna at home, Real Madrid ushered in the first leg of the Champions League group stage with a five-point advantage, challenging Twente of the Eredivisie away.

Unfortunately, in the away game, although Kaka scored a goal for Real Madrid in the 13th minute, Twente then scored two consecutive goals to reverse the score. Finally, Ibrahimovic equalized the score in the 41st minute.

In the end, Real Madrid drew Twente 2-2 away.

Real Madrid was not satisfied with the result of the game because they failed to win Twente, who was relatively weak in the first game of the group stage.

...

Back in La Liga, Real Madrid challenged Real Sociedad away.

The first half of the game was not smooth, but in the second half, Real Madrid changed the decline in the first half. First, David Silva passed the ball, Di Maria broke into the left side of the penalty area, and shot a right-footed arc ball to break the deadlock.

Then Real Sociedad scored a game, with Griezmann assisting Tamudo to tie the score, but Real Madrid quickly relied on a free kick opportunity in the frontcourt, with central defender Pepe heading the ball to score, surpassing the score again.

In the end, Real Madrid defeated Real Sociedad 2-1 away.

But at the same time, Barcelona defeated Atletico Madrid 2-1 away, and Messi scored the first goal.

...

In the middle of the week, in the fourth round of La Liga, Real Madrid faced Espanyol at home.

In the 28th minute of the first half, Real Madrid temporarily took the lead with Robben's goal.

But after the second half of the game, Pepe fouled against Carderon twice in five minutes, won consecutive cards, and was sent off by red cards. Real Madrid was one less than their opponents, but soon, Espanyol's Garland was also sent off directly by red cards.

In the 78th minute, Real Madrid counterattacked, Kaka passed directly to the left side of the penalty area, and Ibrahimovic pushed the ball into the left rib, expanding the score to 2-0.

In the 89th minute, Xavi Alonso and Marcelo cooperated continuously, crossed the ball to the left, and Higuain, who came on the bench, scored a low shot, locking the score to 3-0. Espanyol player Forlin also protested after conceding the ball, and accumulated two yellow cards and was sent off.

In the end, Real Madrid defeated Espanyol three to zero at home, but the three red cards caused considerable controversy after the game.

In another game played at the same time, Barcelona continued to maintain a five-point lead over Real Madrid with Villa's final goal, defeating Sporting Gijon 1-0 at home.

...

The fifth round of La Liga on the weekend.

Barcelona beat 3-1 away, with Sedo Keita, Xavi and Busquets scoring.

Real Madrid was tied by Levante on the away game by 0 to 0.

After five rounds of battles, Barcelona won all five games and scored fifteen points, but Real Madrid won two wins, two draws and one loss, only eight points, and were seven points behind.

After this round of game, Real Madrid head coach Benitez encountered a coaching crisis, especially Benitez's offensive training, which aroused dissatisfaction among the outside world and fans.

Holding with top European midfielders such as Ibrahimovic, Kaka, Robben, Di Maria, David Silva and Xavi Alonso, it turned out to be sluggish on the offensive end, which is unreasonable in any case.

Benitez said at a post-match press conference with Levante that Yang Yang's absence had a huge impact on Real Madrid, but this would not calm the dissatisfaction of Real Madrid fans in any case.

The Real Madrid coach heard the sound of being dismissed for the first time after more than a year in charge of the team.

...

La Liga was eight points behind Barcelona, ​​but when he returned to the Champions League, Benitez's team quickly won a big victory.

With Ibrahimovic's hat-trick and Kaka's goal, Real Madrid defeated Werder Bremen four-zero at home, winning the first victory of the Champions League group stage this season, and achieving a refreshing victory.

With this game, Benitez once again confirmed his reputation as the king of the Cup. When he returned to the Champions League, Real Madrid immediately regained his best offensive form, temporarily alleviating the head coach's coach's crisis.

But what's interesting is that when returning to La Liga, Real Madrid welcomed La Coruña at home.

Real Madrid, who had just defeated his opponent four goals in the Champions League, but La Coruña, who had a tenacious defense at the Bernabeu Stadium, had no choice but to do so. The two sides finally shook hands with zero to zero, while Real Madrid encountered another draw this season.

In two consecutive games, everyone can see that there are indeed some problems with Benitez's team's offensive end, especially when facing a team with strict defense, losing Yang Yang's sharp weapon, Real Madrid's offensive threat is also greatly reduced.

However, since Barcelona also performed poorly in this round, they drew Real Mallorca 1-1 at home, which made the media and fans more tolerant of Real Madrid's draw, but doubts about Benitez are getting louder and louder.

The focus is on the team's offense.

It is unreasonable to have the most luxurious offensive lineup in the world, but it has zero to zero for two consecutive rounds.

…………

…………

On the two-week national team match day, the Valdebebas training base in Madrid was empty, and only the medical department was still working, especially the rehabilitation and physiotherapy center.

On an instrument similar to a treadmill style, Yang Yang grabbed the armrests on both sides and watched the airbags wrapped below the waist quickly inflate and continue to expand, while the weight of the body on his feet is also decreasing.

This is a brand new rehabilitation physiotherapy instrument called a microgravity stepper. As the name suggests, it can release upward wind power at the user's waist through the airbag, simulate the state of weight loss in space, and thus reduce the weight of the legs, which can reduce by up to 80%.

Yang Yang now began to practice stepping under this 20% gravity.

This was the first time he started rehabilitation training after twenty days of injury.

The Real Madrid team attached great importance to this. Carlos Dias accompanied him throughout the journey. Su Ye and Winston Bogard also stood aside, looking at Yang Yang on the stepper with great concern, watching him take every step carefully, a bit like a baby learning to walk.

Since she arrived in Madrid in mid-September, Su Ye has only returned to the United States once, dealt with some things, and filmed the remaining plots. After that, she stayed in Madrid wholeheartedly and accompanied Yang Yang to heal her wounds.

Winston Bogard also flew directly from China to Madrid to take care of him after Yang Yang was injured. He is now an important member of Yang Yang's rehabilitation team and participated in Yang Yang's treatment and rehabilitation plan throughout the process.

Although there was only 20% gravity, Yang Yang was already sweating profusely after walking for a while.

Everyone has no doubt that if it is under normal gravity, let alone walking for a long time, even if you just stand, Yang Yang will probably feel unbearable.

As time came, Su Ye immediately came over and wiped Yang Yang's head, face and body with pain.

"How is it?" asked Winston Bogard with concern.

Yang Yang nodded, "It was a little stiff at the beginning, but I didn't feel the pain."

He was talking about his right ankle.

"From the results of the filming, the recovery was very ideal, and the progress was faster than we thought before." Carlos Dias was also very happy with Yang Yang's injury progress, because as a doctor, especially a Real Madrid fan, he really hoped to see Yang Yang return to the court as soon as possible.

Losing Yang Yang is like a disaster for Real Madrid.

In the home draw with La Coruña, the Boosters of the Bernabeu were already heard, and the picky Real Madrid fans were obviously not satisfied with Benitez's coaching results this season.

Indeed, such a start is not like the performance that a team aims to defend the champion should have.

Real Madrid is still the previous Real Madrid team. At best, Sneijder was replaced by David Silva and Kaka, but the team's performance was huge, and Yang Yang was the one who caused the gap.

"Then can I come back early?" Yang Yang asked anxiously.

Carlos Dias and Winston Bogard looked at each other and smiled bitterly.

Real Madrid, including the media and fans, are looking forward to Yang Yang's return as soon as possible, but Florentino and the management have issued a death order to the medical team, and must recover the injuries. They must not take risks or leave any future troubles.

You know, how many talented players in European football fall on injuries every year?

Florentino has even spoken out. Even if Real Madrid is empty this season, they will have to let Yang Yang recover his injuries.

This is the number one superstar in his mind that Real Madrid will not be shaken by in the next five or even ten years.

However, Yang Yang's injury did bring many variables to the team. For example, everyone in the team clearly realized that Benitez's offense training was indeed worrying.

In the past, Yang Yang used his outstanding performance to cover up the team's weak offensive behavior, but when Yang Yang was injured and absent, Real Madrid's offensive firepower so far this season is really unsatisfactory.

The four-to-zero victory over Werder Bremen was in the Champions League, which was Benitez's home court.

"Don't be too anxious." Winston Bogard smiled and patted Yang Yang on the shoulder. "Your most important task now is to recover from injuries. You don't have to think about anything. We initially estimate that you will have to be considered truly healed after at least half a month, or even a month. You can only participate in training at that time, but you have to start with training alone."

"That's right, and your physical condition. I've gained weight recently and been overweight. At that time, I will definitely have to undergo a period of physical training to find out my condition." Carlos Dias also advised.

Rehabilitation is unhurried, and it is easy to cause trouble if it is urgent.
