Chapter 525 King's Cup
The cause of the Copa del Rey event is actually the most related to Real Madrid, because Real Madrid was named Royal by King Alfonso XIII of Spain.
In return, the chairman of Real Madrid at the time proposed to hold a game to celebrate the king, so the Copa del Rey was born, and the opening of this event lasted for a hundred years.
Since it is the King's Cup, how can the King of Spain and the Spanish royal family be missing? The current Spanish King Juan Carlos appeared in the stands, and members of the royal family also appeared in the private room.
Well, in fact, the appearance of the king is nothing unusual for Real Madrid. The king, and even members of the Spanish royal family, are frequent visitors to the Bernabeu, and there is also an exclusive private room for the Spanish royal family at the Bernabeu.
If they win the championship, the players who won the championship after the game can still have close contact with the king. Since it is the Copa del Rey, it must be worthy of the name, and the king will present awards to the champion team.
In fact, the society has developed to the present, and the king basically has no real power. These so-called royal families are at most symbols, and it is not an exaggeration to describe them as mascots.
On the field, the players on both sides will definitely not care about how many important spectators are in the stands. For the current two teams, the game is everything, and everything else must be put after the game.
Real Madrid's attack line is naturally led by Ronaldo, plus Di Maria, Benzema, and Ozil. In order to prepare for this final, Ronaldo took a rare round of rest.
Behind Ozil are Modric and Khedira. On the defense line, Varane is tragic and unable to play due to injury. Ramos and Albiol form a central defender partner, with Coentrao and Essien on both sides, and goalkeeper Lopez.
Atletico Madrid is also a regular lineup. Relying on this lineup, Atletico Madrid has made a qualitative leap this season, ranking third in the league.
Both sides made their positions clear. As soon as the game started, Real Madrid showed a strong desire to attack, especially Ronaldo. Real Madrid's three kicks before the opening were all contracted by Ronaldo.
Atletico Madrid chose to defend and counterattack. In the opening ten minutes, Atletico Madrid ushered in the first kick, which came from Costa's long shot from outside the penalty area.
The final is not destined to be exciting, even though Real Madrid's offense is quite powerful, but if you look carefully, Real Madrid's offense is all supported by the personal ability of the frontcourt players.
Few players in Real Madrid's midfield really stepped forward to attack. Even Modric only held the ball near the center circle and would not go too deep.
But sometimes, a player's personal ability can change the direction of a game. For example, Ronaldo, as the best player in football today, has the ability to determine the direction and outcome of a game.
What's more, this is a desperate Ronaldo. You know, Real Madrid has been stimulated by Lin Dong this season. Otherwise, Ronaldo would not take the initiative to take turns to prepare for this game.
No. 15 minutes of the game, just after Atletico Madrid's first wave of attack, was exactly the same as the goal time of the first Madrid derby.
This is a corner kick. Before Benzema received Di Maria's cross and failed to reach the ball, Atletico Madrid central defender Godin, who gave the funeral last time, made a clearance.
It was a gift of change of direction, as his clearance gave Real Madrid a corner, and Real Madrid scored the first goal because of this corner.
Modric drove the ball into the penalty area, and Ronaldo jumped high in the penalty area. Real Madrid's physical fitness is quite good, and the muscles of that body have almost reached the limit of athletes.
Courtois had nothing to do about it because he was too close to the goal. Real Madrid took the lead 1:0. This goal was also the only goal for both sides in the first half.
In the following time, Real Madrid's morale was so high because of Ronaldo's goal, and they once suppressed Atletico Madrid in the half, but they were still a little short of the goal.
Of course, Atletico Madrid is not without opportunities. Relying on the counterattack, Atletico Madrid also played two good attacks, but they still couldn't break the goal.
In the second half, Real Madrid consciously began to stabilize the rhythm, but at this time an accident happened. Diego Costa, the center of Atletico Madrid, was wrong, because Falcao was there, and Costa was not playing as a center.
His cold shot from outside the penalty area caught Real Madrid off guard, and also stunned Lopez, because no one thought that Costa would take a direct kick when he received a pass and had a defensive player.
I really want to say that this goal cannot be blamed on any player in Real Madrid, because it is completely a ball of luck. If Costa is given ten more times, it is estimated that it is possible to score.
But this is football, this is the charm of football games, you never know what will happen in the next second, who will suddenly score a goal.
This unexpected goal disrupted Real Madrid's rhythm, and Mourinho had to change his tactics, and Simeone immediately made corresponding changes.
In order to prevent Real Madrid's goal, Atletico Madrid began to foul endlessly, and the result was to piss off Real Madrid's players.
Don't forget, this game is not just the Copa del Rey, but also the Madrid Derby. From 10:10 minutes to 10:[-] minutes, in just [-]:[-] minutes, the referee unbelievably took out [-] yellow cards. What's even more unbelievable is that the owners of these [-] yellow cards were not repeated, and the referee also managed to get even rain and dew, seven for each team.
In this case, the head coaches of the two teams have to stand up and contain the players. Otherwise, if this continues, it is estimated that before the end of the game, the two sides will definitely have a few fewer players on the court.
However, Simeone quickly regretted his decision, because after he told his disciples not to make unnecessary fouls, Real Madrid scored.
It was still Ronaldo, No. 803 minutes of the game, Ronaldo received a goal from Ozil, who passed Atletico Madrid defender Godin and broke into the penalty area with a low shot. The ball went straight to the dead corner, and Atletico Madrid was a complete tragedy.
After the goal, Mourinho began to use substitutions to pass the time after the celebration, and took up foul tactics after replacing new players.
This time the red card finally appeared, and it was still raining and dew. For Real Madrid's two cards, one of them had already carried a yellow card, and the two yellow cards turned into a red card, and they were sent off.
Just 30 seconds later, Atlético de Madrid also applied for a yellow card. It also turned two yellow cards into one red, brainless?No, because there is no time left for the full game.
Just 1 minute after Atletico Madrid applied for the yellow card, the referee Carlos Gomez blew the whistle for the end of the game, and the score was finally fixed at 2:1.
Ronaldo scored twice, Real Madrid won the Copa del Rey this season.
