Chapter 490 Ronaldo personally imparts experience

"Barca actually lost..."

Putting down the TV remote control in his hand, Guardiola slumped on the sofa, staring at the ceiling above his head, his eyes unfocused.

Barcelona has a special meaning to him. Although he is no longer the head coach of Barcelona, ​​he still feels sad when he sees the team he once played for and coached lose.

Especially when he saw the sad backs of his former disciples on the court, he felt as if his heart was being pricked by needles.

"It's not surprising to lose to Atletico Madrid. Simeone's tactical arrangement was very successful. It can be said that he completely saw through Enrique's tactics.

On the other hand, Enrique's tactics were a bit dull for Barcelona. He used Iniesta inappropriately and assigned him too many tasks, almost making him play both the rookie and Xavi. How is this possible? Moreover, Enrique likes to exploit the main players and does a poor job of rotation. The performance of these Barcelona players in this game was not good. I think it has a lot to do with their physical fitness! "

Lin Quan does not have a high opinion of Enrique. This is not because of the unpleasantness that occurred at Barcelona, ​​but because he feels that Enrique's ability is questionable.

The main reason why Iniesta performed so poorly last season was due to the tactical arrangement.

The same person performed very well in the national team, but performed worse when he joined the club. This is enough to show that he did not make good use of Xiaobai.

However, MSN's outstanding performance last season masked these problems and allowed Enrique to ignore them.

However, even if the hidden danger is eliminated, it will continue to exist and may even expand further.

Compared with Barcelona under Guardiola, the playing style of Barcelona under Enrique is very different.

Thanks to MSN's outstanding personal strength, he likes to leave the offense to the trident in the frontcourt.

Therefore, Barcelona changed its previous short pass coordination method of advancement, and fully utilized the advantages of both sides through long passes and quick movements of the full-backs and defensive midfielders to complete the attack.

When Neymar was there, this tactic had its problems but was feasible.

But when Neymar was not there, this tactic was not feasible, and Enrique failed to come up with a new tactic in time, but instead stubbornly continued with this style of play.

Rakitic's ability is indeed good, but he cannot replace Xavi.

However, due to the change in the team's tactics and his own injuries, Xiaobai's condition has declined significantly.

This season, the strong midfield that Barcelona has always been proud of is no longer there. Without strong support from the midfield, Messi and Suarez will naturally not have many opportunities in the frontcourt.

If Enrique could face reality and adjust the tactics, let Suarez be at the front, move Messi back a little, and let him participate more in organizing the attack, the results might be much better.

After all, Messi, who is already 29 years old, is no longer young. Moreover, he has been plagued by injuries frequently, which has made Messi's condition always not good.

Enrique's rotation is a mess. Although Barcelona's substitute lineup is indeed not strong enough, it is obviously not the right way for him to constantly exploit the main players.

In short, Barcelona’s failure this season is not accidental. Even if they win against Atletico Madrid by chance in this round, they will definitely not survive the next round.

"Well, you are right. Okay, let's not talk about Barcelona anymore. The list of the top four has been announced. Next, the draw for the semi-finals will be held. Do you want to go with me to the draw ceremony?"

Guardiola sorted out his emotions and began to think about the next round of the Champions League.

The other three teams in the Champions League semi-finals are not easy to deal with. These teams are all very strong and difficult to play against.

However, for a team aiming to win the championship, they must defeat these strong opponents to win the trophy! "Okay, the next league game is still a long way off, I'll go with you!"

…

The draw ceremony for the Champions League semi-finals is scheduled for the afternoon of April 15, still at UEFA's headquarters.

The teams that have made it to the semi-finals can be said to be the strongest and most influential teams in today's football.

Judging from their current strength, it doesn't matter whether the draw between them is a good or bad one.

It will be difficult to play against any team no matter who they are drawn against. Therefore, relatively speaking, the home and away order of the semi-finals is more important than who the opponent is.

Compared with the previous draws, this draw for the semi-finals received more attention. Countless media reporters and fans gathered outside, set up cameras, held up various slogans and portraits of some players, and surrounded the venue.

According to statistics, more than 200 TV stations around the world chose to broadcast the draw ceremony live, and the number of fans watching the draw ceremony online reached hundreds of millions.

Countless fans are looking forward to it, hoping to see four exciting matches of fierce competition.

The arrival of Lin Quan and Guardiola caused a commotion outside the venue. Countless cameras and microphones were pointed at them. The clicking sounds and flashing of spotlights made it difficult for Lin Quan to open his eyes.

Lin Quan smiled and waved to the camera and the fans at the scene.

This move caused a stir among fans:

"It's Emperor Lin who's here!"

"Come on, Emperor Lin!"

"Emperor Lin, we love you!"

Some people even rushed towards him excitedly, but fortunately the security personnel on the scene were strong enough to stop these crazy fans.

"Come in quickly!"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Guardiola hurriedly took Lin Quan into the venue.

Not long after the two of them entered, they saw Cristiano Ronaldo and Real Madrid head coach Zidane also fleeing in in a panic.

Apparently, these two received similar treatment outside!

After the four met, they greeted each other. Guardiola naturally sat next to Zidane and started chatting with him.

Although the two had played for Barcelona and Real Madrid, the two sworn enemies respectively, they had never faced each other in La Liga, so there was no grudge between them.

On the contrary, the two are of similar age, both started out as midfielders, and both became coaches after retiring, so they have a lot of common topics.

The two of them started chatting among themselves, leaving Lin Quan and Ronaldo feeling a little awkward.

Lin Quan had no animosity towards Ronaldo. He nodded to him and found a seat to sit down.

As a result, as soon as he sat down, Ronaldo sat down next to him.

"I've watched your games, your hat trick in the last game was impressive!"

Lin Quan looked at Ronaldo in surprise. It was rare for Ronaldo to take the initiative to praise others! "Thank you, Ronaldo, your hat trick at the Bernabeu was amazing. You scored in three different ways. Compared to you, my three goals are nothing!"

It is a good idea to extend a hand to someone who smiles at you. Since the other party has taken the initiative to greet him, Lin Quan naturally has to give him some face and they can promote each other's business.

"Yes, I think so too. Your offensive skills are not comprehensive enough. I think you should continue to strengthen them and further enrich your arsenal!"

"ah?"

Lin Quanren was a little stunned. What was going on? We agreed to have a commercial show, but why are you still panting? "Don't you think your way of scoring goals is too monotonous?"

Ronaldo didn't seem to be joking, but said seriously: "Your style of play is very similar to Messi's in the past few years, but haven't you noticed that Messi's goal efficiency has greatly decreased since he scored 91 goals in 2012? His number of goals has been decreasing in recent years. You don't want to repeat Messi's mistakes, do you?"

It seems that Ronaldo is serious and doesn't seem to be joking. Instead, he is giving me advice seriously.

Lin Quan didn't want to refuse the other party's kindness, so he shook his head seriously.

C Luo nodded, looking like a teachable boy:

"With his age, injuries and opponents' targeting, Messi's success rate in breakthroughs has dropped a lot compared to before. If he continues to play in the same way, his goal efficiency will definitely drop. This is the main reason why I have surpassed him in the number of goals in the past two years!"

When saying this, Lin Quan could clearly feel the pride and pride in Ronaldo's tone.

In fact, Ronaldo himself knows that there is a gap between his talent and strength and Messi.

Read the error-free version on 6Ⅹ9Ⅹ bookⅩ bar! 6Ⅹ9 book bar first publishes a novel.

Messi can score up to 91 goals a year, while Ronaldo can only score up to 69 goals.

Messi in his prime was unstoppable and no one could stop him.

However, Ronaldo was not discouraged by this. Instead, he further improved his goal efficiency through transformation and turned himself into a goal-scoring machine.

He is indeed not as good as Messi in the wing position, but when he moved to the forward position, he relied on his excellent sense of smell and extremely comprehensive shooting skills to play to his strengths and avoid his weaknesses, further narrowing the gap between him and Messi, and even overtaking him.

This is something that Ronaldo is very proud of, even proud of. Precisely because of his successful transformation, Ronaldo would take the initiative to give Lin Quan advice with his experience as a veteran, so that he can enrich his arsenal and prepare for future transformation in advance.

"Well, that makes sense. Thank you for your suggestion. I will seriously consider it!"

Although his situation is completely different from Ronaldo, even if Lin Quan transforms, he will move to midfield instead of to the front line.

However, the other party's suggestion was well-intentioned and without any malice, so Lin Quan also solemnly expressed his gratitude to Ronaldo.

"You're welcome. If you're free this summer, you can come to my training camp!"

Ronaldo handed Lin Quan a business card with the address and contact information of his training camp.

"Well, I'll go check it out if I have time!"

Lin Quan took it, took a look at it, and then put it away.

This guy is really a training maniac. He even trains during the off-season.

However, it is unlikely to be possible this year, as the European Cup is about to begin. As the main players of the team, the two will have to report to the national team early after the league ends to prepare for the upcoming European Cup.

Since there are many strong teams in Europe, the intensity of the European Cup is no less than that of the World Cup.

If we are unlucky, we might even have trouble qualifying from the group stage.

Therefore, all countries attach great importance to the European Cup, and they determine the 23-man roster early and gather the players for training early.

So he will definitely not continue to practice extra this summer.

I've been playing for a whole year and finally got a break. If I continue to push myself too hard, I'd be asking for trouble.

…

While the two were chatting, some reporters at the scene also noticed this scene, so they pointed their cameras at them and took pictures of the two people chatting privately.

When this picture was uploaded to the Internet, it caused quite a stir.

"Hey, didn't they say that Ronaldo and Lin Huang have a bad relationship? Why do they seem to be chatting happily?"

"I don't know, but I don't think I've heard much about the two of them getting on bad terms, right?"

"The two don't interact much with each other. Their relationship isn't very good, but it shouldn't be bad either. The bad relationship is probably between the fans of both sides, right?"

"Haha, this kind of thing is nothing new. The feud between the fans of these two is relatively rare. Just look at the war between Ronaldo fans and Messi fans, that's terrifying!"

"I understand. After all, this is a feud that has lasted for five or six years. It's normal for fans to fight each other!"

"If you ask me, it's thanks to the sudden appearance of Lin Huang that the competitive atmosphere between the two has been diluted. Just imagine, if Lin Huang hadn't existed, to what extent would the fans of these two people fight?"

"That makes sense. I still remember the atmosphere on the Internet three or four years ago. Haha, wherever there are fans of these two, there are bound to be disputes!"

Amid the heated discussions among the fans, the draw ceremony for the Champions League semi-finals began.

The first team drawn was Manchester City. According to UEFA regulations, the first team drawn will play at home first and away later.

So after seeing this result, Guardiola's face became a little solemn.

Playing at home first and away later is not a favorable schedule, especially in the second round that decides the outcome. If you play away from home, it will be more difficult and will face more challenges.

When facing a top team, it is unlikely that they will completely defeat the opponent in the first round. If the opponent is smart enough, under such a favorable schedule, they will definitely choose a conservative tactic in the first round away game, striving to maintain a draw, or lose less and win less, leaving the suspense of victory or defeat to the next game! Once the opponent does this, it will be a bit difficult for Manchester City to deal with it.

The reason why strong teams are strong is that they have outstanding abilities in all aspects. Once they are determined to defend well, even a strong team like Manchester City will find it difficult to break the opponent's goal! "Just don't draw Atletico Madrid. Real Madrid and Bayern are both offensive teams. If you draw them, it will be a little easier to play against them!"

Since the schedule of home game first and away game later has been confirmed, Guardiola only hopes that the opponent is not Atletico Madrid, because this schedule is very favorable for Atletico Madrid. If Manchester City draws Atletico Madrid, it may be a little dangerous!

However, just as Guardiola was thinking this in his mind, Dejan Stankovic pulled Atletico out.

Seeing this result, Guardiola was speechless.

There was also a burst of noise at the scene, with countless people talking in whispers.

The last time Simeone faced Guardiola in the Champions League, he shut out his team.

When the two meet again this time, are they going to play out the same script?
