51, raging Real Madrid
The reverse victory over Barcelona made the atmosphere in the Real Madrid team much more relaxed.
The rumors of internal strife that had been stirred up by the media before seemed to have never happened at this time...
Two days later, on January 28, Real Madrid welcomed their opponent in the 21st round of the league, Zaragoza, at home.
Although Zaragoza is only ranked last in the standings, they took three points from the Bernabeu last season.
Mourinho doesn't dare to neglect, Ronaldo, Kaká, Benzema, Alonso, Callejon are all there!
The Galaxy Battleship, which went all out, did not overturn on the deputy squad leader. Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice, Kaká passed and shot, and easily defeated the opponent with a score of 3:1.
At the same time, at Villarreal’s Ballad Stadium, Huang Qian, who fought fiercely for 90 minutes, shook hands with Barcelona 0:0.
With one win and one draw, the point difference between Real Madrid and Barcelona has expanded from 5 points to 7 points!
Overnight, the direction of public opinion completely changed. The criticism and pressure that Real Madrid had endured before were now all blamed on Barcelona!
The Copa del Rey has been eliminated, and the league has lost the initiative by being 7 points behind. Although there are still 4 months left in the season, Barcelona has already lost two championship trophies!
Unless they can win the Champions League, they will face the end of losing all four!

After entering February, Su Changwei's new contract was officially activated.
He also completely got rid of his status as a rookie and entered the middle class of Real Madrid's first team with a weekly salary of 60,000 euros and an annual salary of 3 million.
According to inaccurate reports, the current most valuable person in the Real Madrid team is of course Cristiano Ronaldo. The Portuguese superstar’s annual salary is as high as 12 million!
Next is Kaka’s 9 million, Cassie and Ramos’ 6 million.
Benzema, Alonso and Carvalho all belong to the 4 million bracket.
Higuain, Pepe, Arbeloa, Khedira and others are in the 3 million bracket.
And Di Maria, who has not signed a new contract due to injury, now only has an annual salary of 2 million...
Also under 3 million are Marcelo, Shaheen, Albiol, Diraya, Callejon, Granero, Coentrao, Altintop, Varane...
Su Changwei's status in the team has reached the middle level of the first team - although there is still a considerable gap from the top of the pyramid...
After all, the value of players at this time has not yet increased. Except for a few top superstars, the annual salary of most players is only two to three million, and the average annual salary of relegation teams may not even reach one million.
Along with the new contract, there was also a signing fee of 2 million, which was remitted to Su Changwei's bank account on February 1.
The only pity is that despite Mendes' efforts, Real Madrid still did not compromise on the player's image rights. Real Madrid will take half of the proceeds from all commercial sponsorship contracts Su Changwei obtains!
This is the biggest platform in football!
They have the confidence!

"Hey, Awei, you are here for home treatment!"
On February 2, when the first team was resting, Mourinho personally came to visit his "lucky boy".
He carried a bottle of beautifully packaged champagne and a bouquet of flowers, and brought his most trusted assistant Faria and chief team doctor Dias to visit:
"Good morning, madam, I hope I didn't disturb you."
"Hello, Mr. Mourinho, Mr. Faria, Dr. Dias, please come in."
Although she had already met Mourinho when she signed the contract for the first time, Chang Xiaolin was still a little flattered and quickly shouted into the room.
Su Changwei, who was playing games in the study, dragged his right leg out and walked out:
"Please, I just strained a muscle. I don't need the entire coaching staff to come visit, right?"
His injury was not serious, so he never expected that the Portuguese would come to his door in person.
"You are a lucky boy who brings me luck. Can't I come and see you?"
Mourinho smiled and hugged him, then sat down in the living room:
"Do you think, in your mind, that I am a head coach who likes to keep a straight face and keep a distance from his players? That's an old thing! I like to play with young people!"
Su Changwei shrugged and accepted Diaz's recovery check while chatting.
Chang Xiaolin first made them black tea and coffee, then cut a fruit plate and then sat on the outermost side:
"Mr. Mourinho, thank you for your concern."
Mourinho smiled and waved:
"Madam, please call me José Aweiko, my lucky boy. So far, as long as he has played in the games, we have won all the games, and the wins have been wonderful!"
Chang Xiaolin nodded and raised her concerns:
"However, he has been injured quite frequently recently. The last time he recovered from injury was less than three days..."
Mourinho restrained his smile slightly:
"I understand your feelings very well. As the head coach, I also hope that he can reduce injuries and stay healthy. Doctor, how is the examination?"
The cunning Portuguese changed the topic in time.
For a mother who cares about her son, he can't cruelly say, "There's no way you can get hurt playing football"...
Dias shook his head slightly and wrote two lines of words on his document paper:
"The time between the two injuries was too short. The recovery effect this time is not ideal, and we need to continue to rest. I will come back for a follow-up consultation in a week."
The look of worry on Chang Xiaolin's face became even stronger.
Su Changwei laughed nonchalantly:
"You have finished watching and finished drinking the tea. Can you go home?"
"I will enter the dungeon soon, and my teammates will be waiting for me!"
Mourinho was stunned for a moment, then laughed.
【What is a copy?】
[When I was at Chelsea and Inter Milan, those people seemed to have no other hobbies except drinking and picking up girls!]

In the first 20 days of February, Su Changwei was recovering from his injuries.
Without him, Real Madrid also struggled.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
First, in the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-finals, Galacticos drew with Valencia 2:2 at the Mestalla Stadium - but in the second leg a week later, Real Madrid, who returned to the Bernabeu, still won 3:1.
Victory.
In the 22nd round of the league, they encountered Getafe's stubborn resistance.
Getafe, which has always been considered a member of the "Real Madrid family", once forced the big brother Real into a tough battle.
Pepe once again stood at the forefront: he blocked the opponent's shot with his right hand during a defense!
Despite Getafe's appeal, the referee refused to award a penalty kick...
In the end, relying on Ramos' header, Real Madrid only won 1:0...
In the 23rd round, Real Madrid, having learned their lesson, beat Levante, ranked 4th, 4:2 at home. Cristiano Ronaldo was in full swing, completing a hat trick!
As for Barcelona, they suffered another heavy blow:
They were tied by Osasuna 3:3 in the away game, and the point difference behind Real Madrid widened from 7 points to 9 points. The probability of winning the league title is almost slim!
On the one hand, Barcelona's two midfielders Xavi and Iniesta are slightly lacking in physical fitness. Facing a mid-tier team in this game, Guardiola gave them a rest, but he did not expect that the entire midfield was close to losing control!
On the other hand, Guardiola's contract extension with Barcelona has not been finalized for a long time, and the news of Guardiola's departure has become public knowledge. This has undoubtedly greatly affected the morale in the locker room!
The competitors themselves fell behind, and the Real Madrid soldiers' confidence skyrocketed as if they had taken an aphrodisiac!
In the 24th round, Cristiano Ronaldo opened the scoring, Di Maria made waves around the world after his comeback, Benzema scored twice, and Real Madrid swept Racing Santander 4:0 at home.
The only thing that gives Mourinho a headache is...
Di Maria, who had just returned from injury, was injured again during the stoppage time of the game!
Like Su Changwei, he also strained his muscles because he was too excited!
Seeing Di Maria's painful expression in the news, Chang Xiaolin breathed a sigh of relief:
Chapter completed!
