1322 The Great Crisis

"No matter when, losing is a sad thing."

At the post-match press conference at the Bernabeu, Barcelona coach Luis Enrique could not hide his frustration. He looked very depressed, obviously feeling extremely disappointed with the just-concluded century derby, especially the amazing gap.

Five to zero, this is a score of love and fighting in the history of Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​and it appeared again tonight.

"Now, we must improve ourselves as soon as possible and get out of this defeat. What I worry most is the emotional state of the players. I hope they can regain their fighting spirit as soon as possible, because there is still a long way to go before us."

"Tonight, we are facing a great team, we paid the price for our mistakes, but I always think that this way of losing is not fair to us, because we all control the game, but after losing, we have nothing to say, what we need to do most now is to cheer up from negative negative emotions."

Enrique himself was obviously full of loss, but he had to force himself to cheer up and inspire his players.

Time doesn't wait for anyone. The Champions League will be the middle of the week, and then there will be one league after another.

16th is the year of the European Cup. In order to make time for the European Cup, European leagues have become more compact. Therefore, the winter break of this year's La Liga is very short, and it is impossible to leave enough time for Barcelona to slowly lick their wounds.

Some media asked Enrique on the spot what he thought about the arrangement of the team in this game. The Barcelona head coach was frank that he had made a mistake and should bear the responsibility.

"We want to try to create more opportunities by controlling the ball and launching more offenses. Our idea is to use higher-level technical players to fight against Real Madrid, but this doesn't work. You have also seen that we control 70% of the ball possession rate, but our opponents defend more closely."

"I was surprised by their tactics in this game. This is the Bernabeu. They rarely use such conservative game strategies at their home court. I misjudged the opponent, which made us make mistakes on the tactical level."

But Enrique also said that the team suffered such a crushing defeat, which is definitely not just the responsibility of the coaching staff or a certain player, but the responsibility of everyone in the team.

"Next, we will analyze this game carefully to see what we didn't handle it well enough and we need to make corrections, but more importantly, we need to prepare for the next game, we still have a lot of games to play, so we have to cheer up as soon as possible."

Regarding his joke that Zidane and Yang Yang were rookies' head coaches before the game, Enrique said that he was not wrong.

Before this game, he joked in an interview with Catalan media that Zidane never had the experience of being the one, and the role played by Yang Yang is even more strange. The main star and chief assistant coach of the first team is a role he has never had before, and it is very difficult to take into account both.

But now, Yang Yang and Zidane have led Real Madrid to beat Barcelona five-to-zero at home. Yang Yang scored a hat-trick and also gave Suarez an assist and was elected as the best player in the game.

So far this season, Yang Yang has scored 16 goals and six assists in the twelve rounds of La Liga, played in four games in the Champions League, and scored seven goals. Such goal efficiency is quite good. It can be said that he slapped Enrique's comments before the game.

But the Barcelona head coach is not willing to admit it.

"I still stick to my pre-match judgment. Zidane's coaching experience is still quite immature. It is difficult for Yang Yang to play the dual role of a player and an assistant coach at the same time. Maybe they seem to be successful now, but I believe time will prove my point of view."

This also means that Enrique will still not give up, and he still firmly believes that Real Madrid will make mistakes and Barcelona still has a chance to reverse.

Although, Real Madrid has been quite dominant in La Liga over the past few seasons.

But in this case, what else can he do besides continuing to say this?

…………

…………

As soon as the century derby ended, the Ass was the first to publish the column of editor-in-chief Alfredo.

Real Madrid humiliated Barcelona by 5 to zero!

In the column, Alfredo analyzed the game, believing that Yang Yang and Zidane completely suppressed Louis Enrique in tactical terms, and both showed maturity and sophistication that was inconsistent with their coaching resume.

"From the whole game, from beginning to end, Barcelona was suppressed and had no power to fight back. Real Madrid used a straightforward five-to-zero to prove that it was better than its mortal enemy. Barcelona played very badly, and Real Madrid had the opportunity to win a bigger victory!"

Alfredo said that this key victory allowed Real Madrid to lead Barcelona, ​​who was second in the standings, as many as seven points and Atletico, who was third in the standings, as many as eight points, but none of these are the most important.

"The most important thing is that Yang Yang and Zidane have proved to everyone that they are capable of leading this Real Madrid to a newer and higher glory. They are continuing the huge advantage of Real Madrid football since Benitez to Ancelotti."

"Barcelona's superstars are all present, Messi also made a substitute in the second half, but they did not perform at all. Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar were mediocre in the frontcourt, and Messi was exhausted after coming on as a substitute, but ineffective. This crushing defeat was not just in the result, but in the process, Real Madrid gave Barcelona the most painful blow."

Finally, Alfredo sarcastically sarcastically said, "Barcelona's only advantage may be their possession."

...

Daily Sports News also commented at the first time, a huge crisis!

The report said that Yang Yang destroyed Barcelona and he completely destroyed Barcelona's hope of defeating Real Madrid with a hat trick.

"Luis Enrique's team showed strong ball control ability, but in front of the cold and ruthless Real Madrid, it exposed its defensive weaknesses, and was repeatedly broken by Yang Yang."

"After this game, Enrique was questioned, especially the move to replace Rakitic instead of Roberto, which is even more incredible. Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar were both furious in the locker room after the game, questioning Enrique's tactics in public, and Barcelona's locker room was in crisis."

...

World Sports said that this embarrassing century derby threw Barcelona into the fire pit.

"At the Bernabeu Stadium, Enrique watched Barcelona suffer heavy damage from Real Madrid, but he was helpless. Even in the change of the team, he made a fatal mistake, causing Real Madrid to further expand their results and an incredible historic defeat, which once again cast a shadow on Barcelona's prospects for this season."

World Sports also made an in-depth analysis and believed that it was unfair to shirk all the defeats in the game to Enrique. He believed that the Barcelona management led by Bartomeu was the culprit of the team, which made Barcelona's first-team lineup weak and difficult to support. Even a clever woman could not cook for nothing, let alone Enrique was not considered a clever woman.

Later, World Sports believes that Cristiano Ronaldo has performed poorly again.

"Losing to Real Madrid and Yang Yang is already commonplace for him!"

...

As the two major media in Catalonia opened fire, many media also followed suit.

Both Cristiano Ronaldo and Neymar performed poorly, but became an instability factor in the locker room after the game, which made them bear the most fire from the media, believing that they were the top pay in the world football world, but did nothing when facing Real Madrid.

"In addition to losing, it's still losing. Is this the performance that a top superstar should have?"

Enrique also suffered a lot of accusations, especially when he replaced Lakitic with Messi instead of Roberto. Everyone agreed after the game that this was a failure and a huge mistake.

"It's hard for us to imagine that as a head coach, he made such a stupid low-level mistake in the game. Roberto could not bear the pressure from the century-old derby battle, but Enrique always believed in him and even replaced Rakitic."

The media and fans expressed great dissatisfaction with the Barcelona coach and players. Even when the team returned to Barcelona, ​​many fans came to the court to boo, obviously very dissatisfied with their 0-5 away defeat.

Captain Iniesta, who was suffering from the anger of the media and fans, in addition to apologizing and hoping to be forgiven, expressed his support for head coach Enrique. "Unfortunately, we didn't play well on the road, but we must forget these bad memories as soon as possible and learn from them. We apologize to the fans. This is not the game we want. We will continue to work hard and continue to fight."

Vice captain Messi has not received much criticism because he is a substitute and the team's darling, but he still hopes that fans can continue to support Enrique.

"We have to support Enrique, I won't point out who played badly, nor do I want to blame anyone who is a sinner because it makes no sense."

"We all have a responsibility for the loss of the game. Now for us, the most important thing is to unite and play every game that will come."

Regarding the Bernabeu's crushing defeat, Messi said, "It's really a very difficult time. None of us expected to play so badly, but it's over. What we need to do is learn from our lessons, learn from our mistakes, and make progress in the next game."

After experiencing such a crushing defeat, Messi said it would be difficult for Barcelona to reverse Real Madrid.

"Yang Yang played a more important role in Real Madrid. I can feel that he has a greater impact on this team. He did a pretty good job. I think this year's Golden Globe Awards should still be his. This is not surprising at all."

"If I have time, I will definitely come to the scene to congratulate him. Why not? He is an admirable opponent and also my goal to catch up with!"
