    When the Mallorca team came to the small town of Villarreal, they all knew what the coming week meant.

    The away game against Villarreal was the last time they encountered strong teams in a row. Next, their opponents in the league were not very strong, and they would not meet Valencia until the end of March.  Then there is Real Madrid. It can be said that Mallorca, the strong team at this stage, has already played. In addition, there is a make-up match against Athletic Bilbao at home in the middle of the week. If these two games can be won, Mallorca  You can narrow the gap with Real Madrid to at least three points!

    This will be a very safe distance. Even if Real Madrid's actual lead has not shrunk, the psychological impact will be huge - after all, the last time Real Madrid won the league championship was in the 2000-01 season.  It has been seven full seasons now, and there are only a few players left in the Real Madrid team that has championship experience. Only Casillas can be the main player, and Raul can't guarantee that he will be the main player.  , they lack the experience in the stalemate during the championship!

    Mallorca will not panic when they are six points behind, but Real Madrid may panic when they are three points ahead. This is the difference between the two teams.

    Another point of confidence comes from the difference between the head coaches of the two sides. Although it seems that Schuster is doing a very good job at Real Madrid, after all, he only has coaching experience in a mid-range team, and he still lacks some skills to coach a giant like Real Madrid.  Things, especially the lack of experience in winning the championship. From this perspective, this Real Madrid is brand new and immature from top to bottom, and cannot be compared with Mallorca in terms of experience!

    This is Jose's biggest reliance, and it is also the reason why people are worried about whether Real Madrid can be stable - in fact, this kind of thing is obvious. For the current Real Madrid, being a front-runner is not actually a very beneficial thing.  As chasers, they will appear more calm, but if they can grab points, why not grab them?  What's more, catching up with Mallorca is not an easy task. Except for the first full season coached by Jose, who was overturned by Valencia due to the lack of experience in the team, in all other seasons, as long as Mallorca  Card occupied the first place in the second half, and they have never been unseated by others - the league title that Barcelona snatched from them was because Barcelona had been leading and did not allow Mallorca to close the gap much.  opportunity passed.

    So now Real Madrid is in a dilemma, let¡¯s take the lead, Mallorca will bring too much pressure behind them, let¡¯s catch up, but I¡¯m afraid I won¡¯t be able to catch up

    The only thing they hope now is that the Champions League will start soon. Winning the league championship is of course not as attractive as winning three consecutive Champions League titles. La Liga champions will be produced every year, but winning three consecutive championships in the Champions League will take ten years.  It may not be possible to produce one - the Champions League has a history of more than 50 years. The only clubs that can win three consecutive championships and more consecutive championships are Real Madrid, Ajax and Bayern.  The honor is much greater than a La Liga title.

    After the start of the Champions League, Mallorca's focus will definitely shift to the Champions League. This is something everyone knows - Schuster even thought that if Mallorca was not pulled by him in the league by then,  If the distance is increased or even reduced, then Real Madrid can even give up the Champions League game and try their best to win a championship in the league - after all, Real Madrid does not have the ability to compete with Mallorca on both fronts. If they compete in the league, it will be a waste.  Still very confident!

    Of course, Schuster quickly gave up this idea. He knew what Real Madrid's requirements were. With the pride of Real Madrid fans and the attitude of the management that they could only rely on the fans, Real Madrid would have to attack on three fronts at the same time. If he wanted to  If you give up the Champions League, even if you win the league championship in the end, you will be fired after winning the championship like Capello before!

    So Schuster controlled this idea. Although he knew that doing so might be more beneficial to Real Madrid's overall season, he still did not dare to do so. Real Madrid also valued the Champions League, whether it was five consecutive championships or  A record nine championships are the biggest factor in Real Madrid becoming the best club in the 20th century. Whatever Real Madrid gives up, it is impossible to give up the Champions League!

    ***************************************

    Jose naturally didn't know that Schuster had thought about giving up the Champions League and focusing on playing in the league. Even if he knew, he didn't care, because he had already prepared - although he no longer remembered Real Madrid's performance in the Champions League this season.  How was the result in the Champions League, but he knew that Real Madrid had immediately started its journey to the Champions League since entering the quarter-finals of the Champions League in the 2004 season. It was not until Mourinho took office that this vicious circle was broken.  None of Camacho, Ramon, Luxenberg, Carlo, Capello, Schuster, Juan Ramos or Chilean engineer Pellegrino could make Nine??Champions League winner Real Madrid entered the second stage of the knockout round - those six years were the most humiliating six years in the history of Real Madrid. They had never entered the quarter-finals of the Champions League for such a long time before, even in the Real Madrid Champions League.  The gloomiest period in history, from 1981 to 1986 when they failed to participate in the Champions League for five consecutive years. They also entered the Champions League finals and semi-finals in the 1980-81 and 1986-87 seasons respectively. They failed to win the Champions League in six years.  Entering the quarterfinals of the Champions League is the first time in Real Madrid's history!

    So no matter what, Real Madrid will not be able to enter the Champions League quarter-finals this season, so if Mallorca wants to win the Triple Crown, they have to compete with Real Madrid while distracted. In this case, Jose has already  Just make your own preparations.

    Before the start of the Champions League, defeat all the opponents in front of you. Even if you cannot tie Real Madrid, you must keep them in fear and always worry about being caught up. Only in this way can you offset Mallorca's denser schedule to a certain extent.  They must defeat the Yellow Submarine in the away game, and then win consecutive victories against those weak teams. He firmly believes that Real Madrid will not win consecutively, and neither will Mallorca.  , yet they won more than Real Madrid!

    Villarreal has performed well this season. They are currently ranked fourth, only six points behind Barcelona and one point ahead of Atletico Madrid. Although they are still unlikely to win the league title this season, they are fully capable of winning the next step.  Qualification for the Season Champions Cup,

    This season Villarreal has had a lot of personnel changes. They sold Forl¨¢n, full-back Jose Enrique, Ecuadorian winger Valencia, and forward Jose Mari. They had previously performed miracles with their frontcourt trident.  Only Riquelme is left, and the Argentine geek has also begun to get sick. His performance this season has not been outstanding, and he has gradually become a substitute.

    However, the offensive line composed of Nihat, Giuseppe Rossi, Pires, Kani, Cazorla, Matias Fernandez and others, and the offensive line composed of Capdevila, Angel, Nishioka and others  The defense line allows them to continue to maintain a strong overall strength. Without Riquelme, Carney is better able to integrate into the whole. Veteran Pires and young player Cazorla also performed well. They no longer rely on one  The performance of the stars depends on the overall level. Pellegrino proved that it was definitely not his fault that Riquelme had conflicts with him, because he ranked Villarreal with a team without Riquelme.  They ranked fourth in the league, and their performance against strong teams was not bad at all. They defeated Valencia, Barcelona, ??and Atletico Madrid, and only narrowly lost to Real Madrid and Mallorca in the offensive battles.  Villarreal, who has the courage to attack, is not afraid of anyone!

    The Ballad Stadium came to a boil in the 27th minute. Nihat's breakthrough was tripped by Pepe in the penalty area. The referee decisively awarded a penalty kick. Giuseppe Rossi scored his tenth league goal of the season in one fell swoop.  Goal, the 20-year-old Italian forward performed so well for the first time when he joined Villarreal, which is enough to make people think that he has a bright future!

    With 20-year-old Rossi and 21-year-old Fernandez, Villarreal has no shortage of fresh blood.

    However, Mallorca is not lacking. In addition to young talented players, they also have outstanding superstars. This is what Villarreal lacks the most.

    Ten minutes later, Mallorca equalized the score. The goal was scored by Henry, who has been in hot form recently. He can be said to be the most motivated one in the team. He is now Mallorca's number one in the Champions League.  The striker has scored two more goals than Kaka, and with this goal in the league, he has scored ten goals in the league, and is only two goals away from the top scorer Torres.

    This goal is a goal full of Henry's personal style. He received Kak¨¢'s pass at the front of the penalty area, and then suddenly started to pass a defender and broke into the penalty area. He twisted when former Arsenal teammate Nishioka came up to fill the position.  He leaned forward and kicked a ground ball with his right foot. The ball bypassed the opponent's goalkeeper's hand and accurately flew into the far corner of the goal, tying the game one-on-one.

    In the following game, the two sides continued to struggle on the court. However, shortly after the start of the second half, Klose scored his ninth league goal of the season. This goal came from Iniesta's beautiful challenge.  Passing the ball, Klose only needs to hit the ball at the back point

    After being overtaken by Mallorca, Mallorca continued to gradually form an advantage in the midfield. Although Villarreal's offense was fierce, it was difficult to pass their defense, while Mallorca's offense was blocked every time.  They were able to push back their entire formation. The thin Rossi was constantly disturbed by Pepe, and there were not many chances to get the ball. It was difficult for Nihart to create against the rock-steady Matias.  What chance comes out.

    After struggling for 20 minutes in the second half, Jose replaced Iniesta with Balotelli to strengthen the offensive ability of the frontcourt. This was Balotelli's first?When he debuted in the league, facing Rossi, who was about to become his compatriot, Balotelli also showed that he was no worse than his opponent, or even better. He was quite active on the court and constantly used his skills.  Impacting Villarreal's defenders who have begun to decline in physical fitness.

    In the 80th minute, Balot used a beautiful bicycle to pass Capdevila and then dribbled the ball straight into the penalty area. When Villarreal defenders were chasing and intercepting him, he calmly picked the ball directly.  When the ball was passed near the penalty spot, Kaka, who was inserted in the back row, volleyed directly into the falling ball, helping Mallorca score the third goal that sealed the victory!

    Three to one, Mallorca defeated Villarreal away from home. Now the gap between them and Real Madrid has been temporarily reduced to three points. Then they can quietly wait for the result of Real Madrid's away game against Almeria  ¡­
