"Tottenham?"

"We can really beat them, and if it's Chelsea or Manchester United, we may be a little harder to deal with. We can really think about the semi-finals and Barcelona."

Real Madrid fans are very optimistic. After the draw, everyone was excited. They were even more excited when they thought that they were likely to play Barcelona in the semi-finals.

"I'm glad I can meet Barcelona again at the end of the season, and we'll leave them with nothing."

Real Madrid plays Barcelona this year, Real Madrid fans are quite calm, much calmer than Real Madrid players.

Psychological advantages are at risk.

However, Barcelona fans expressed concerns about drawing with Real Madrid in the second half, and some rational fans said:

"It seems that nothing can stop Barcelona and Real Madrid from meeting in the semi-finals. This is not a good result. I would rather Barcelona appear in the first half and challenge the two Premier League teams so that they will meet Real Madrid in the final."

"It's not a good thing to meet Real Madrid too early, but if you encounter it in the final, it seems to be..."

Their mood is contradictory and they are afraid of losing.

With all the plans, Real Madrid and Barcelona may encounter four more times this season, one for the King's Cup final, one for the league, and two for the Champions League.

Whether the two teams can advance to the final depends on whether they can defeat their respective opponents in the semi-finals.

The four best teams in Spain gathered together in the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey. In addition to Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​Valencia and Sevilla also reported.

The situation of the match was determined in advance as early as the promotion, that is, Barcelona vs. Valencia, Real Madrid vs. Sevilla.

Coincidentally, both teams were away first and then home, Real Madrid went to challenge Sevilla away, while Barcelona went to challenge Valencia away.

After returning from the Champions League, Mourinho immediately gave the team a day and a half vacation to prepare for the semi-finals.

This is his first season in Real Madrid. He doesn't want to miss any chance to compete for the championship, and the Copa del Rey is no exception.

Although the team only got three days off, he still put most of the main players on the list that day, including Dong Fangzhuo.

The last time the two sides met in the Copa del Rey was the semi-finals of the 2003/04 season. Real Madrid lost away but eliminated Sevilla with a total score advantage. Real Madrid only won one game in the last 9 games of Pisjuan, and lost the league game a few days ago.

So this time Mourinho dared not take it lightly. He was afraid of snake biting for ten years and was afraid of the rope.

The Sevilla knew that Mourinho was not surprised at all when he played with his main players. Fabiano, the team's ace, laughed at the media before the game: "Real Madrid is afraid of us. They are worried every time they play with us. They will send all the main players every time, but even so, they will not get any advantage at Pisjuan Stadium. This time, we will give them a failure."

Then he continued to mock Mourinho: "I enjoyed the victory at Pisjuan Stadium, and Mourinho would cry again."

Speaking of Dong Fangzhuo's return, Fabiano restrained his ridicule and said seriously: "Dong is the best striker at present, but I still have to say that football is a whole, not a one-person sport. There have been many great strikers in the history of Brazilian football. For example, Ronaldo dare not say that he can win the World Cup every time. This is the case in 2006. Real Madrid is naturally a luxury teacher, but I believe we will play better."

The words also reached the Real Madrid press conference before the game, and the reporters also asked Mourinho and Dong Fangzhuo what they thought about these words.

Mourinho said bluntly: "History is all in the past. We are not afraid of failure. This time they may have laughed too early. What Fabiano didn't know is that Ronaldo's peak was not in 2006, while 1994/1998 and 2002 were the best Ronaldo. He almost brought everything to Brazil. What Fabiano didn't know is that Dong was at the peak. He didn't know where the gap between him and Dong was really in the next game."

Dong Fangzhuo did not answer this question positively, but just told the media that he couldn't wait to start the competition.

His feet are still itchy...

Both teams are actually on the main lineup.

Sevilla's lineup (4-4-2): goalkeeper Palop; defender Sergio Sanchez, Escud, Alexis, Navarro; midfielder Navas, Jokora, Romarik, Perotti; striker Canut, Fabiano

Real Madrid changed its lineup again, and the three midfielders were thrown out by Mourinho again. Goalkeeper Casillas, defenders Carvajal, Ramos, Pepe, Marcelo, midfielder Alonso, Modric, Khdira, front midfielder Ozil and Dong Fangzhuo, forward C Ronaldo.

Compared with the Champions League lineup, Benzema and Di Maria sat on the bench. Real Madrid lost not many games this season, just one game, and this game was given by the Sevilla, so Mourinho also became low-key and played back three midfielders, and could only sacrifice the players on the front line. There is no need to win this game, but it is best not to lose...

Seeing this lineup, Morientes, who has been against Mourinho, despised him in the live room before the opening. "I finally played a beautiful victory at home, and Mourinho shrank again. He was like this. When he met a weak team, he shouted to attack, and when he met a strong team, he shrank. Obviously, Sevilla made him feel unprecedented pressure, otherwise he would not have used the formation of three midfielders. This game will definitely be another dull game, and we will see another Real Madrid aiming to defend."

Morientes is right. After the game started, Real Madrid played a bit ugly. They were indeed not in a hurry to attack, but based on defense. Sevilla's 442 parallel position was indeed very balanced and he was not at all in the confrontation with Real Madrid.

In the first twenty minutes, both sides failed to form an effective shot! This is indeed too rare. Dong Fangzhuo and Ronaldo were knocked down by Sevilla players in the midfield in succession, and they did not give them a chance to get the ball and move forward.

"These guys' movements are so dirty." Ronaldo and Dong Fangzhuo muttered, "The last time they used these methods to beat us."

"Bah, they're still using the same trick again this time."

C Ronaldo is still resentful of the last loss to Sevilla.

Dong Fangzhuo comforted:

"Old guy, calm down,"

"The more you do this, the happier they are."

"We can't fall into their trap, we need to have more patience than they do."

"We have time to waste with them."

...

Yes, the pace is not fast, maybe it was the result of a fight with Lyon midweek, but Morientes was not satisfied:

"Real Madrid is a little tired, but this is not an excuse to play mediocrely. Mourinho can choose more rotations, but he doesn't."

Afterwards, Sevilla seemed to see hope, and they strengthened their offense, especially on the two sides, and they accelerated. In the 23rd minute, Carvajal had to play Navas on the side, which caused controversy between the two sides, and the two teams mixed together, almost triggering a fight.

Ronaldo also ran over, but was stopped by Dong Fangzhuo.

Dong Fangzhuo found that his teammates were a little impatient recently and his temper was easily caught on fire. His energy was not as strong as those who played against Lyon in the middle of the week, and he was not excited at all.

In the end, it was Sevilla's set piece. Romarik made a free kick from the side, and Alexis headed the ball against Ramos at the edge of the small penalty area.

The game then fell into peace. Real Madrid's three-middle midfielder configuration effectively blocked Sevilla's offensive, but Real Madrid was a little impatient in the counterattack, and Ronaldo fell into the offside trap. During this period, Dong Fangzhuo passed two good goals to Ronaldo in succession, but was judged to be offside.

In the 30th minute, Real Madrid was in danger again. Fabiano pressed in the penalty area to make Khdira clearance. Canut followed up and shot and was blocked by Pepe. The former complained that Real Madrid defender's handball foul was ignored and was still only awarded Sevilla a corner kick.

The corner kick was opened to the far point, and Fabiano defeated the edge of the small penalty area and headed the ball to the goal.

Real Madrid fans who came to watch the game on site were a little dissatisfied.

"What's going on?"

"I'm depressed again?"

"I feel that Sevilla is Real Madrid, and are the Real Madrid players dragging shot put under their feet?"

"Sevilla also played in the Europa League midweek."

"It seems that only Dong is fighting hard?"

In the eyes of Real Madrid players, they only saw Dong Fangzhuo running up and down the court. Perhaps this is also the reason why Mourinho wants to change back to the third midfielder. This team is really tired. Dong Fangzhuo just returned to the court, and of course his performance is different from other teammates.

Five minutes later, Carvajal kicked Romarik down on the edge of the penalty area, and this time he finally did not escape the yellow card.

Romarik personally took the set ball and shot directly from a free kick from the right at a small angle, but the ball was pushed out of the crossbar by Casillas.

The sleepy Real Madrid still didn't wake up at this time, feeling like they were being pressed on the turf by Sevilla.

As the captain, Casillas just frowned and didn't say anything to his teammates.

Mourinho, off the court, yelled a few words from time to time, but it seemed that there was no effect.

In the 38th minute, Ozil, who disappeared from the half, finally had a flash of inspiration and stuffed Dong Fangzhuo a beautiful diagonal pass. Dong Fangzhuo entered from the left, but Navas firmly left Dong Fangzhuo with the price of a yellow card.

The position was not good, but Ronaldo volunteered, but pulled the ball against the wall with one kick, without any threat, and instead made Sevilla strike back!

This time, the speed was quite fast. The ball hit Real Madrid's half. Fabiano leaned on Ramos and passed the ball to Navas on the field. Navas couldn't wait to shoot directly from the right side of the penalty area, but the ball was blocked by Pepe's legs.

Khdira got the ball and immediately handed it to Ozil in front. Ozil wanted to miss the ball above his opponent's head, but failed!

The ball fell to the feet of Sevilla player Canut again!

Canute immediately made a straight pass, and Fabiano understood the goal from the middle to the right, and grabbed the ball before Pepe!

"It's a one-on-one!"

"Aowu"

This is the most thrilling situation in the first time in the whole audience.

Casillas was quite focused and immediately rushed out of the penalty area. The calm Brazilian continued to go to the right and actually passed Casillas.

The empty door is here!

Bang,

Fabiano pushed the far corner with his right foot, and Ramos quickly came back and fell to the ground and slipped the ball, barely blocking it in front of the goal line, but the ball still slowly rolled towards the goal line.

Bang!

It was Pepe, and in the end he kicked the ball out with one kick.

"ah!"

"Ahhhhhh!"

At this time, both Real Madrid fans and Sevilla fans were screaming in shock.

Did the ball go in?

In fact, no one saw it, and everyone looked at the referee.

The referee seemed very hesitant, but his eyes were on the lineman. The referee shook the flag and signaled that the kick was not scored. Then the referee refused to give the penalty and the goal was valid.

"asshole!"

"Have you seen it clearly?"

Sevilla's players immediately rushed to the referee to protest, but the referee was unmoved and blew whistles and drove them away.
