Chapter 952
Chapter 952
When Florentino saw Sneijder's celebration, he really couldn't laugh on the rostrum.
He's not stupid, he knows what Sneijder's celebration means - it's aimed at himself!
Fahim beside him was cheering for Sneijder's goal.
This made Florentino even more uncomfortable.
When he sold Sneijder to Manchester City, what he thought in his mind was finally getting rid of a burden.
In the end, this burden gave me a heavy blow...
If Real Madrid loses to Manchester City at home, it will be a disaster for themselves and the team.
Halfway through the group stage, Real Madrid only scored one point. How can they compete for the first place in the group?
Not to mention being number one in the group... Damn, even getting out of the group has become very difficult!
But he didn't regret letting Sneijder go because of this.
He firmly believes that his decision must be correct.
He's just a little uncomfortable because he was slapped in the face by Sneijder on the spot...
※※※
Sneijder's goal gave City the lead and when play resumed, there were boos at the Bernabeu for the first time in the game when a Real Madrid player had the ball.
Although it is not big, there are sporadic stars.
But Rong Guang was no stranger to such situations.
After hearing the boos, he looked up directly to the stands.
It's a familiar recipe, a familiar taste...
Real Madrid fans are running out of patience.
Then just work harder and let them let go of their unrealistic fantasies!
With three consecutive victories in the group stage, Manchester City not only wants to qualify from the group, but also to be the first in the group!
※※※
In the first half, it ended with a score of 2:1, and Manchester City, who played away, temporarily took the lead.
However, the morale of the Real Madrid players was very low. When they left the field, they all lowered their heads and walked in a hurry, while there were boos against them in the stands, which were louder than those in the game, which fully expressed the dissatisfaction of the Real Madrid fans.
After hearing the boos, Sneijder looked up, and he saw that there were even Real Madrid fans waving white handkerchiefs in the stands.
At this moment, a hand was placed on his shoulder, it was glory.
He turned his head to look over, and Rong Guang smiled at him.
"Let's go."
Snyder nodded, and followed Rong Guang into the passage, leaving all the boos and white handkerchiefs behind.

During the intermission, the atmosphere of Manchester City was a little relaxed. Everyone now finds that Real Madrid is a paper tiger. After defeating Bayern Munich at home, they are full of confidence. Now that Real Madrid has not caused them too much trouble, they began to look forward to things like beating Real Madrid at the Bernabeu.
This kind of thing, the previous Manchester City did not even dare to think about it.
Now, not only dare to think, but also do it!
On the contrary, in the dressing room of Real Madrid, the atmosphere is a bit weird.
Pellegrini is giving the players a plan for the second half.
"...We can't play like we did in the second half, we have to do something! In the second half, the control over Sneijder must be strengthened. Obviously, he is the core of Manchester City's midfield..."
He was talking endlessly, but not many people listened to him.
Everyone seems to have a mind of their own.
Some people are desperate for the current situation, sitting in their seats with their heads down, not saying a word, just looking at him like this can feel full of negative energy.
And some people have good fighting spirit, but they didn't listen to Pellegrini's words at all. They felt that they could handle their opponents with their own abilities, and they didn't need to listen to the nonsense of this low-level head coach.
"No level", this is the inner evaluation of many Real Madrid players to Pellegrini.
They feel that this head coach with an unglamorous resume cannot convince them at all.
For a team like Real Madrid, the players who can play here are naturally world-class stars. Which one is not a big name?
Since the players are big names, the head coach must also be big names. Otherwise, why would those big-name stars listen to you, a nobody?
This is why when the Real Madrid club officially announced Pellegrini as the team's head coach, everyone was surprised.
I feel like this is an April Fool's joke.
No one believes that Pellegrini will be successful, and no one believes that Pellegrini will stay here for a long time. Everyone thinks he is just an over-coach.Because Real Madrid failed to seduce Mourinho, they temporarily found such a person to make up the number. Once they got Mourinho, Pellegrini had to get out and make room for Mourinho.
Such a head coach who started the countdown to the end of get out of class at the beginning of his tenure... is actually quite sad.
Pellegrini himself knew this.
He is not blind, he can see clearly what is going on in the locker room.
Everyone disliked him.
In fact, when he received an olive branch from Real Madrid, he was quite pleasantly surprised. He didn't expect that he would be valued by a giant like Real Madrid.
Just like any player dreams of playing for a big club like Real Madrid, any head coach also aspires to coach a club like Real Madrid.
Pellegrini, who came from the grassroots in football, was valued by Real Madrid, as if the pie fell on his head.
He was ecstatic, full of ambition, and high-spirited.Going to play big at Real Madrid.
But soon he found that the situation was not as good as he imagined.
After coming to Real Madrid, almost no one listened to him. Some people respected him on the surface, but they didn't take him seriously at all in their hearts.
Real Madrid's poor performance in the Champions League has something to do with it.
There are many factions among the players in the locker room, and the situation is complicated. He, a head coach who is completely unconvincing, is here, and he can't suppress the locker room at all. Naturally, the situation will only get worse.
It stands to reason that this game is a battle of life and death for him, and it should be for the players of Real Madrid.But when the Real Madrid team encountered difficulties, it showed a split.It is conceivable what the outcome of this game will be.
Pellegrini sighed, he is really aggrieved as the head coach...

After the start of the second half, the two sides changed places to fight again.
City took advantage of the first-half momentum and launched a ferocious attack on Real Madrid's box, looking as if the Bernabeu was home to them.
After 15 minutes of adjustment and rest at halftime, Real Madrid's performance did not improve.
The offense has no clue, and it counts wherever it hits, basically fighting on its own.
Raul was very diligent and kept returning to defense, but his active running did not have a positive effect.He is a center, but he often returns to his baseline to defend, which is a positive performance.But after he came back to defend, once Real Madrid wanted to attack and quickly advanced to the frontcourt, they couldn't find a center forward. How would Real Madrid's offense play?
So sometimes Raul, as the captain, actively returns to the defense, but it is a good thing if he doesn't see him.
But as the captain, Raul's sense of responsibility does not allow him to be indifferent to the team's defense in the frontcourt.
At Raul's age, it is difficult for him to persist in such a wide range of running.
As a result of his doing so, although he can occasionally help the team defend successfully, but he is a center forward, his role is to score goals, he cares too much about defense, and instead puts the cart before the horse.
Defensively, Real Madrid's defense has always been unstable.
There have been complaints before, saying why Casillas is so good, all of them were cheated by Real Madrid's defense team.
I can’t remember exactly which year Real Madrid’s defense started to become cheated, but for a long time, there has been a saying: “Real Madrid’s offense depends on Ronaldo, and Real Madrid’s defense depends on Iker Casillas.”
Because he was forced to make wonderful saves by the defense team, he was called "Saint Igor".
Therefore, the defense of this Real Madrid is not very good.
The offense is not strong, and the defense is too casual.
The fate of Real Madrid can be imagined...

No. 603 minutes, after the start of the second half 8 minutes, Manchester City launched an offensive, a series of passes, passed the football to the front of the penalty area.
After Sneijder took the ball at the front of the penalty area, he pretended to shoot from a long distance, and the tricked Harvey Alonso came up to block it, but Sneijder just dunked Alonso away.
At the same time, the person he was waiting for also arrived.
So without hesitation, he kicked the pass over the top!
Central defender Albiol jumped up and tried to push the football out with his head, but it was empty-he was still far from the football!
Pepe turned around and looked back, and found that Rong Guang appeared behind him like a bolt of lightning. He reflexively raised his hand to signal Rong Guang to be offside.
At this moment, Rong Guang looked back at the football, and then swung his left foot while running.
"ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG——!!"
Amid the narrator's drawn-out roar, Rong Guang swung his left leg out and kicked the football with his straight instep!
The football picked by Sneijder was directly drawn towards the goal by Rong Guang!
Near the penalty spot, Rong Guang made a powerful volley, and Casillas was still able to make a save, which is already remarkable, but in fact his save did not touch the football at all...
He jumped up waving his hands after the ball flew over his head and into the goal, but it was too late...
It is almost impossible for someone to stop such a close-range volley!
Everyone was stunned.
Manchester City actually leads Real Madrid by two goals in the away game!
Such a scene, I believe those Real Madrid fans had no idea before the game, otherwise they would not be silent now!
