Chapter 1656
From the day Setien received the Barcelona coaching invitation, he already knew that he was taking over a hot potato.
Real Madrid's consecutive victories have brought tremendous pressure to Barcelona. The talented young coach Yang Yang who turned out to be the most dazzling star in European football, makes all the players and coaches look dim. Naturally, no famous coach is willing to take over Barcelona.
This is a high-risk occupation!
But Setien finally came!
He is different from those famous coaches, no matter at any time, he will never be able to refuse an invitation from a giant team like Barcelona.
61 years old, even as a head coach, this age is considered high.
But at this age, Setien's coaching career is still nothing.
He spent most of his career playing for his hometown team Racing Santander, and he also played for Atletico Madrid, Rogrones, Levante and other teams until he retired in 38 at the age of [-].
Five years later, he picked up the coach and coached his hometown team Racing Santander. At that time, Racing Santander was in the second division of the league. The league started poorly. Setien took over the firefighting from the eighth round, but in the end he did not produce satisfactory results.
After that, he failed to coach any team for four years until he took over Rogerones in [-].
It is worth mentioning that in October [-], he went to Equatorial Guinea on behalf of Rogerones to sign a cooperation agreement. At that time, it was the African Cup qualifiers. Equatorial Guinea coach and Brazilian Dumas had just finished get out of class, so the Equatorial Guinea Football Association invited Setien to be the national team coach and promised to sign with him after the game.
Setien, who had been short of coaching opportunities for a long time, accepted the invitation on the spot and led the team to the away game. As a result, they lost [-]-[-] to Cameroon. Then the situation changed dramatically. The Equatorial Guinea Football Association never thought about signing him, which made his national team coaching journey look like a joke.
In Rogerones, Setien only coached two games.
After that, he was unemployed for two years until Lugo, a lower-level Spanish league, invited him. This time, he worked in Lugo for [-] years, and his career gradually started.
There is no coaching experience of any strong and wealthy teams, no championships, a mediocre career, and no achievements in his coaching career. This can be said to be Setien's truest comment.
Therefore, when the 61-year-old received an invitation from Barcelona to coach him, he was in a daze.
Even though he knew very well in his heart that what he took over was a hot potato, a high-risk position that other famous coaches and coaches were eager to escape quickly, but he still accepted Barcelona's invitation without hesitation like a moth to a flame.
Because he knew that this would be a major turning point in his coaching career.
He wants to gamble!
It felt like a crush who had never dared to stay behind, staring at the back of the goddess from a distance, and was not even considered a spare, suddenly fell in favor of the goddess, even though he knew that he was the spare among the spares, even though he knew that he was the hero chosen by the goddess in desperation, and as long as a better candidate appeared, he would be abandoned without hesitation, but he still bowed down to the goddess without hesitation.
What if they fall in love for a long time?
Since coaching Barcelona, Setien has encountered three major exams, and the results are all regrettable.
Lost [-]-[-] away to Valencia, [-]-[-] away to Athletic Bilbao, [-]-[-] away to Naples.
These three games were all away games without exception, and the opponents were not bad, but Barcelona failed to win.
This made Setien's situation in Barcelona worse and worse. The Catalan media is like a savage mother-in-law who always dislikes his hard-working daughter-in-law, no matter what he does is wrong.
In contrast, the most ideal prince charming in their minds is Yang Yang, who is in front of Real Madrid.
33 years old, No.1 in world football, won the UEFA Champions League as a player and head coach before retiring, won the FIFA Men's Football Coach of the Year Award, has amazing commercial value, has a world-recognized stunning wife in his family, and another son who is regarded as a talented player by countless people...
Both career and love are proud!
Yang Yang is like the proud son of heaven, making Setien feel ashamed.
But he felt unconvinced in his heart, because he really wanted to prove to the goddess in his arms that the man she chose was also very strong, and he would not lose to the Prince Charming in her heart.
More importantly, he began to vaguely notice that if he couldn't show any more, his goddess might leave him.
Therefore, to challenge Real Madrid away, Setien is determined to win!
…………
…………
The century derby, also known as the Spanish national derby.
These are definitely the two most important games in each season of La Liga, and the significance is self-evident.
Even now that the situation is clear, this duel still attracts the attention of the whole world, not to mention in Spain, it has attracted the attention of the whole country.
The formation of the two coaches Yang Yang and Setien is also a bit surprising.
Affected by the Champions League knockout match in midweek, Real Madrid had to make a rotation, but Yang Yang showed surprising courage.
Goalkeeper Courtois, defense Marcelo, Ramos, Varane and Carvajal, midfielder Casemiro, Toni Kroos and Modric are in the middle, and the frontcourt is Vinicius, Suarez and teenager Valverde.
This is a very surprising starting lineup.
The classic combination of Toni Kroos and Modric has reappeared, but the most important thing is that the teenager Valverde actually started at the front winger position, which has to be said to be very surprising.
Setien's Barcelona starting lineup is also quite unexpected, abandoning the traditional four-three-three, and instead adopting a more balanced four-four-two, the goalkeeper is Ter Stegen, the defense is Alba, Umtiti, Pique and Semedo, the midfielder is Rakitic, Busquets, Artur and Vidal, and the frontcourt is a combination of Griezmann and Messi.
Anyone can see that Setien is under pressure and hopes to seek stability away from home.
In fact, as long as Barcelona can stop Real Madrid's winning streak, it will be considered a victory.
But Real Madrid obviously want more, and Yang Yang hopes that the team will continue to maintain a winning streak.
Therefore, as soon as the game started, Real Madrid showed an aggressive momentum and actively pressed forward.
Yang Yang's starting tactics are mainly aimed at Barcelona, and the left side is a combination of two Brazilian players, Marcelo and Vinicius.
Marcelo has recovered significantly recently, and Vinicius has also made great progress this season. This makes the left flank composed of two players the most impactful line in Real Madrid's offense, and it is also the main attack line of Real Madrid in this game.
On the other side, Yang Yang used Valverde to start the game. The purpose was to suppress Alba, and at the same time, he played Valverde's running coverage and pressing ability, allowing him to be at the forefront and helping Suarez suppress Barcelona's defense.
With Valverde at the front, Carvajal's back will have a shield to protect him.
As for the midfield, the combination of Modric, Toni Kroos and Casemiro is more about stabilizing the midfield.
……
After the opening, both teams were slightly cautious.
Real Madrid has a large rotation, and Barcelona is playing away games, but the confrontation between the two sides is very fierce and full of gunpowder.
In particular, Vinicius on the left side of Real Madrid was extremely active, but also a little overexcited. He fouled in a frontcourt press and was shown a yellow card.
Not long after that, Carvajal and Alba had some conflicts in a contest between the two players on the wing. The referee got [-] boards and each got a yellow card.
Such a strong smell of gunpowder made the game heated up from the very beginning.
Real Madrid used a high position to press and press, while Barcelona retreated steadily and counterattacked.
Among them is an obvious phenomenon. Real Madrid has more opportunities to enter the 30-meter zone of Barcelona, but there are problems in the last pass, mainly concentrated on Vinicius.
The Brazilian teenager has been quite active this season, and this game is also very exciting, but Setien arranged for Semedo to specifically restrict him, which put Vinicius under even greater defensive pressure.
He ran back and forth again and again, creating chances, and was the most dynamic player in Real Madrid's offensive line. He kept attacking the opponent's defense and made Semedo miserable.
But at the same time, it has to be said that Vinicius' biggest problem now is the handling of the last pass, which seems reckless and immature. This is also a common problem of young players, especially when he is facing huge defensive pressure and eager for success.
Fortunately, in the No.13 minute, Vinicius tried to break through on the left. After Semedo stabbed the ball away, Marcelo stopped the ball on the left side of the penalty area, adjusted it, and passed it directly to the back point. Valverde overpowered Alba and headed back to the center. Suarez rushed ahead of Umtiti and Pique and shot near the penalty spot.
The ball goes straight to the lower right corner of the Barcelona goal!
"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"
"Suarez scored the first goal against Barcelona!"
"From Valverde's header ferry, this assist is very beautiful!"
"Alba feels helpless because he is really not Valverde's opponent because of his height and header."
"Yang Yang's move tonight allowed Real Madrid to take the lead in No. 13 minutes."
"Setien seemed a little helpless, because he really didn't have a good solution. He used almost all the players he could use, but the result still couldn't stop Real Madrid, especially Real Madrid after a large rotation."
"You know, there are players like Mbappe, Hazard, De Bruyne and Rodrygo sitting on Yang Yang's bench. This shows that Real Madrid will attack Barcelona tonight."
