Starting from playing as a defensive midfielder for Real Madrid - Chapter 424

c415 The Golden Ball is a foregone conclusion

“Real Madrid’s goal is always to win the championship!”

“The heart of the champion, the heart of Real Madrid”

“The Lion King’s declaration of winning the championship”

“Recast the glory of the Champions League”

…

When Real Madrid won two consecutive group matches in the Champions League, and Li Ang once again made a bold statement to win back the heavyweight championship trophy, I don’t know how many European media were excited!

Those who wanted to get traffic started to get crazy, and the media supporting Li Ang and Real Madrid cheered enthusiastically behind them.

So much so that when the smoke of the Champions League game dissipated and the major leagues were about to restart the war, there were still many media discussing the prospects of Li Ang and Real Madrid’s journey this season.

For non-giant players, facing such a huge amount of attention and discussion would definitely affect their preparations for training.

However, for the stars in the Real Madrid team, they are accustomed to this feeling of being the center of attention.

After a five-day rest amid the wave of public opinion, Real Madrid welcomed the challenger of the seventh round of La Liga, Eibar, at the Bernabeu.

This team, which ranked 14th in La Liga last season, could not bring too much game pressure to Real Madrid.

This season, Eibar’s defense is still good among the mid- and lower-level teams in La Liga.

But that is only better than other ordinary teams.

For Real Madrid, Eibar is a team that must be eaten.

It happened that some Real Madrid stars and Li Ang recorded a video celebrating China’s National Day for Chinese fans a few days ago, and today is October 2nd.

So it is a good idea to give a big victory as a gift to the vast number of Chinese fans.

On the afternoon of October 2nd, Madrid time in Spain, the seventh round of La Liga, which has attracted much attention from Chinese fans, started on time at the Bernabeu.

At this time, it was just after 10 o’clock in the evening in China, which can be said to be a golden time for watching football.

Therefore, as soon as the game started, the live ratings in China soared like a rocket!

The top executives of the La Liga League attach great importance to the surge in Real Madrid’s overseas ratings this season.

At this moment, looking at the overseas real-time ratings of the unpopular league between Real Madrid and Eibar, several bigwigs couldn’t close their mouths!

This terrifying overseas ratings represents the super large market that the La Liga League can tap!

God knows how depressed and angry these La Liga bigwigs were when Li Ang chose to switch to the Premier League when he was about to become popular.

Especially after Li Ang won the Golden Ball Award in the second season after joining Chelsea, and brought huge commercial endorsements from China for Chelsea and the entire Premier League.

Several bigwigs in the La Liga League have been running around to connect, trying to bring Li Ang back to Real Madrid. Even if the hope is small, they have never given up.

Florentino was able to make up his mind to bring Li Ang back to the Bernabeu at all costs this summer, and behind him was the endorsement and strong support of the La Liga executives!

This does not mean that the La Liga will fully support Real Madrid in the future and give Real Madrid many invisible benefits.

But after Li Ang successfully returned to La Liga and once again brought a huge amount of attention and commercial value to La Liga, at least there is one thing that the La Liga executives can guarantee to Real Madrid.

That is, they will not have any bias in the policy of supporting Real Madrid and Barcelona in the future, and will try to be fair.

This is enough for Real Madrid.

As for Li Ang, La Liga will certainly give more “protection” and will further increase publicity.

These things are what the English Football Association has done before, and the facts have proved that the English Football Association’s preference has brought great returns to the entire Premier League.

As one of the super giants in football, Li Ang is now qualified to enjoy more invisible conveniences on the court.

Kaka, Ronaldo and Messi all came this way. When their strength reaches the peak level, they will naturally become the spokesperson and face player of a certain league passively.

Li Ang naturally knows this. Even if he has not taken the initiative to understand it, Mendes took the initiative to explain it to him after he joined Chelsea and successfully played a super performance.

However, Li Ang has never thought of using this “privilege” to seek any benefits for himself on the court.

He will not offend others if others do not offend him. Although he occasionally has fierce conflicts with opponents and even fights on the field, Li Ang always stands up for his teammates.

After several big moves on the field in the Premier League were finally saved by the top leaders of the English Football Association, Li Ang rarely encounters the kind of thorny players who deliberately pick on him.

Not only in the Premier League, but also in the Champions League and even in the current La Liga, Li Ang has encountered opponents who play games seriously.

For teams in the middle and lower reaches of the league like Eibar, they dare not step on the minefields drawn by the top leaders of the league.

Perhaps when the weak team is fighting against the strong, their confrontational actions will be bigger than usual, but they are basically within a reasonable range.

Otherwise, if they use any lethal tactics against a team like Real Madrid, they will sooner or later be punished by the referee.

Without the reckless and ruthless spirit of Real Sociedad and Athletic Bilbao, Eibar’s resistance against Real Madrid can hardly be called tough.

In the game, Eibar only lasted 20 minutes before Real Madrid, who was out of form, successfully broke through the goal.

Ramos opened the scoring today, and seven minutes later, Pepe seized the opportunity to shoot and score in the corner kick melee!

Real Madrid reversed very fast today, and Marcelo almost scored a long-range goal in the first half stoppage time.

The two super strikers were not very smooth today.

Ronaldo and Berga took turns to shoot eleven times in the first half, but only two of them hit the goal frame. Benzema’s confidence was greatly increased by this shooting accuracy.

But I don’t know if the goal luck was used up in the previous rounds.

In the second half of today’s game, Li Ang and Isco took turns to feed Benzema, but Benzema chose to take the blame first.

After kicking away two single-handed opportunities in succession, the striker couldn’t help but cover his face, and Ancelotti and Zidane off the court were also stunned.

However, even though Real Madrid wasted such a good opportunity, it did not suffer the retribution of losing the ball.

Li Ang took the lead and Casemiro stabilized the midfield and backcourt defense, and then broke through Eibar’s goal with a long shot in the opportunity of forward attack, which directly laid the foundation for victory.

Asensio, who came on as a substitute at the last moment of the second half, scored a beautiful lob to perfectly end this big victory.

With four goals and zero Eibar, Real Madrid ushered in seven consecutive wins at the beginning of the new season!

And Li Ang also gave the domestic fans who were enjoying the holiday a National Day gift with his outstanding performance of passing and shooting.

After this round of league ended, the international match day came.

Except for Li Ang, the main players of Real Madrid’s first team rushed to report to the national team. They are basically the backbone of their respective national teams.

Many substitutes in Real Madrid are actually the main players or important rotations of their national teams.

So when the international match day comes, there are basically few players left in Real Madrid’s first team.

Li Ang, who stayed in Madrid, can only play training matches with Castilla’s youth training players.

However, during this international match day, Li Ang did not stay in Madrid to train.

On the morning of October 8, he appeared on the streets of London and was photographed by English reporters having lunch with Mourinho and his family.

After returning to the Cobham training base in the afternoon, Li Ang arrived at Wembley Stadium on time and sat in the box with Terry and Lampard.

In addition to reminiscing with Mourinho, Li Ang returned to London today to watch a World Cup qualifier for the England national team at the invitation of his old teammates.

Today, the players in the front and midfield of England are still in the process of renewal, and the configuration is not very luxurious. But the strength of the back line is already one of the best in Europe.

Trippier, who was developed by Mourinho to play as a left back, is now the starting left back of the England national team.

He and Maguire, Stones, who transferred from Everton to Chelsea in the summer window this year, and Kyle Walker of Tottenham Hotspur, form the new steel back of the England national team.

Maybe the star quality is not as good as the old England defense line, but the combination strength and defensive effect are not far behind.

In today’s World Cup qualifier, England’s opponent Malta is not strong, and Li Ang finally saw an asymmetric game of full suppression on the scene.

England finally slaughtered Malta 5-0 at Wembley Stadium!

The most shining star in the British national team was not Rooney or Harry Kane, but Harry Maguire who sent the ball into the Malta goal in set-piece opportunities!

Maguire scored twice, coupled with his tough performance on the defensive end, and was regarded as a great success for a while, and won the recognition and pursuit of fans all over the UK.

Li Ang watched Maguire perform better and better on the court, and he was sincerely happy for him.

In the future, if he stays at Chelsea, with Mourinho’s guidance and Thiago Silva’s help, Maguire’s performance will at least not decline drastically.

His performance in the national team will also largely exceed the “overweight” Maguire in Li Ang’s memory.

“Maybe England will have a chance to win the 2018 and 2020 World Championships?”

Li Ang even thought of England regaining the World Championship title.

But thinking of the rapidly growing and mature French team in the next two years, Li Ang laughed and shook his head.

The media should hype up the England-France war in the next few years.

Li Ang is also looking forward to it. How many exciting scenes will the collision of the two teams produce…

Li Ang, who stayed in London that night, just invited his old teammates to have dinner together to reminisce about the past.

But his rest ended there. The next morning, Li Ang flew back to Madrid and did not continue to watch the next World Cup qualifier of the England national team.

His early return to the team can be regarded as a reassurance to the Real Madrid coaching staff.

With the end of the international match day, professional players from various countries have returned to Europe to prepare for the new round of leagues and Champions League group matches.

Real Madrid’s first team did not suffer too serious FIFA injuries this time.

Except for Pepe who had some minor strains in the national team game, the rest of Real Madrid’s main players are still in good health.

However, under the advice of the team doctor and Zidane, Ancelotti finally chose to rotate some of the main players in the eighth round of La Liga.

Li Ang is certainly not on the list of rotation players.

Just like he was relied on by Mourinho and Allegri in the past, he is also a member of Ancelotti’s team who cannot be easily rotated.

On the evening of October 15, Li Ang continued to start the match against Real Betis.

With Ronaldo and Bale both taking a break and Benzema playing poorly in one game, Li Ang had to shoulder the heavy burden of attacking in the frontcourt.

In order to further reduce Li Ang’s defensive pressure in this round of the league, Ancelotti also directly chose to play as a double defensive midfielder, letting Casemiro and Kovacic clean up Li Ang’s ass together.

Li Ang, who returned to the front midfielder position after a long absence, fired at full power.

Facing the team that once accepted him and allowed him to play in the professional league, Li Ang did not show any weakness.

Before the first half of the game was over, he had already scored twice with his head and feet, helping Real Madrid to lead by two goals.

In the 72nd minute of the second half, Li Ang made a direct pass to assist Isco, who came on as a substitute, to score the third goal of the whole game for Real Madrid!

Real Betis was defeated and eventually lost to Real Madrid at home.

Although Li Ang did not show mercy to the team he played for in the past on the field, he did not choose to celebrate after scoring a goal.

After the game, he even hugged and exchanged jerseys with his old partner who he had worked with in the past.

In general, after the game, Li Ang and the fans of Real Betis gave each other warmth.

But three days later, Li Ang, who was sitting in the Bernabeu against Benfica, turned into a big devil on the court and brutally slaughtered his opponent again with C Ronaldo!

Originally, Li Ang only planned to sit in the backcourt, rely on defense, and lead the team to win the victory steadily in this Champions League group match.

But after Isco was injured and left the field by the opponent’s reckless foul in the first half, Li Ang became irritable for the first time in a long time!

He handed the responsibility of defending behind to Casemiro, and then kept asking for the ball to force the attack on Benfica’s midfield defense!

With anger, Li Ang exerted his full ability to confront. For a while, Benfica’s midfield was in chaos, and no one could escape Li Ang’s brutal attack!

After Li Ang broke through Benfica’s midfield defense with a point, Modric took advantage of the situation and sent threatening passes in the first half, assisting Ronaldo and Li Ang to score!

In the second half of the game, Li Ang took the lead and scored twice in the frontcourt set-piece.

Ronaldo got a penalty opportunity created by Marcelo and scored twice in one fell swoop!

Before the end of the game, Bernie cut in and scored another goal!

Real Madrid finally defeated Benfica 5-0 at home, killing all three opponents in the Champions League group, and further occupied the top position!

Li Ang also once again aroused heated discussions among fans from all over the world through two consecutive strong performances.

After all, it is almost the end of the year, and fans are also very interested in this year’s Golden Ball Award.

Originally, Ronaldo won the European Cup this summer and would be Li Ang’s biggest opponent on the road to defending the Golden Ball.

But Ronaldo’s state has been ups and downs in the new season. His performance in the Champions League is okay, but his performance in the league seems to be relatively average.

Li Ang himself is also very motivated. He has been performing well since returning to Real Madrid in the new season.

Li Ang has been a hot topic in the football world in recent months.

With the strong performance of the team in the last two games, Li Ang’s odds for the Ballon d’Or have once again left Ronaldo far behind.

Countless fans believe that Li Ang’s defense of the Ballon d’Or this year should be a foregone conclusion!
