Within a single day, Real Madrid suffered a double blow from their old rivals! Barcelona defeated Real Madrid 5-2, causing the "Galactic Battleship" to lose the Spanish Super Cup title. Meanwhile, Atletico Madrid won 1-0 against Osasuna, quietly achieving an 8-game winning streak, surpassing Real Madrid in the league table to top La Liga and secure the mid-season championship. Barcelona now seems to have a very aggressive spirit, always getting fired up when playing against Real Madrid. Including this match, Barcelona has scored more than 5 goals against Real Madrid four times this century, while Real Madrid has not done so even once. In fact, whether it's losing the Spanish Super Cup or dropping to the top of the league, these are not crucial as the season is still long. The key point is that they inadvertently provided assistance to their neighbors in their time of need. This is simply unbearable! Barcelona's lineup has height, strength, and speed in the frontcourt, with a combination of flanks and center, which Real Madrid's defense simply cannot withstand. The comprehensive defeat in this El Clásico match should be attributed to coach Carlo Ancelotti! According to the feeling of Real Madrid players, there is a possibility that Ancelotti could be sacked at any moment! In the past, Real Madrid's defensive lineup included Kroos, Modric, Carvajal, and Alaba, who could still rely on Nacho even when injured. However, the current awkward situation in the frontcourt is that the forwards generally cannot hold their positions centrally, with too many missing elements. Only Mbappé can capitalize on…

Real Madrid's journey in the Champions League has suffered a heavy blow, with a 0-2 away defeat against Liverpool plunging the team into a massive crisis. This loss is not only about the scoreline but also marks the second consecutive defeat for Real Madrid in the Champions League, causing their ranking to slip to 24th, leaving their chances of qualifying on thin ice. Kylian Mbappé, who was brought in by Real Madrid with significant investment this summer and was expected to be the key figure to change the game, has underperformed. In the match against Liverpool, Mbappé failed to demonstrate his expected abilities, falling into a state of depression. This has made him the target of criticism and significantly reduced the attacking power of Real Madrid. According to Spain's "Diario Sport," since joining Real Madrid, Mbappé has struggled to integrate well into the team system. The match against Liverpool magnified his difficulties, as both his mental and physical states have reached their limits, making it challenging for him to perform at his best on the field. To change this situation, the Real Madrid management has decided to take action by changing coaches. The news also suggests that Real Madrid plans to bring back Zinedine Zidane, the 52-year-old football legend who shares a special connection with Mbappé. Zidane was Mbappé's childhood idol and had a significant influence on his football development. During the process of Real Madrid signing Mbappé, Zidane played an important role as a communication bridge. When Mbappé made his debut at the Bernabéu, Zidane even temporarily served as…

The dissolution of Guangzhou FC is indeed an outcome that many fans find unacceptable, and it has almost become a global news story. Once known as Guangzhou Evergrande, the team was invincible in Asia and ranked 11th among world clubs, which is also the highest ranking for an Asian club in the world. It can be said that Guangzhou Evergrande single-handedly led Chinese football to the world. However, the news of Guangzhou FC's dissolution has also shocked many European media outlets. The Times Sport reported: "Guangzhou Evergrande, China's greatest football club, was disbanded, just like you told me that Spanish football had lost Real Madrid and Barcelona." "China's greatest football club, Guangzhou Evergrande, has been disbanded. It's as if you told me that Spanish football has lost Real Madrid and Barcelona." As we all know, Real Madrid and Barcelona are not only Spain's top clubs but also the most successful football clubs in Europe and around the world. European football emphasizes tradition and history, so Real Madrid has countless glories. England cannot exist without Manchester United and Liverpool, Italy cannot exist without Juventus, and Germany cannot lose Bayern Munich and Borussia Dortmund. These are the symbols of a country's football. However, in the context of Chinese football, no matter how many league titles or AFC Champions League titles you have, the Football Association can easily target you. Therefore, whether it's Barcelona, Real Madrid, Boca Juniors, or River Plate, as long as they are under the system of the Chinese Football Association, they are all means for the association to make…

In the final of the 2024-25 season Spanish Super Cup, Real Madrid faced off against Barcelona. As the defending champions, Real Madrid had triumphed over Barcelona with a 4:1 victory the previous year and now boasted an even stronger squad, led by new summer signing Kylian Mbappe, alongside Vinicius, Bellingham, and Rodrygo, forming a formidable quartet. On the Barcelona side, the frontline was still led by Lewandowski, Rafinha, and Ilaix Moriba, with Olmo and Paul Victor, who were successfully registered on a temporary basis, waiting on the bench. Barcelona's recent form has been poor, and they have been experiencing a tumultuous period since the start of the new year, making Real Madrid the more favored team. However, it should not be forgotten that just over two months ago in the La Liga match, Real Madrid suffered a humiliating 0:4 defeat at home to Barcelona under the guidance of coach Flick, with both teams fielding similar squads to the current ones. The match started with a dream opening for Real Madrid, as their usual counter-attack saw Vinicius and Mbappe connect to score the first goal within just five minutes. However, this turned out to be the beginning of a nightmare! From the 22nd to the 48th minute, Barcelona scored five consecutive goals, leaving Real Madrid stunned once again. In the 56th minute, goalkeeper Szczesny was sent off, leaving Barcelona with one less player. Despite having an extra man, Real Madrid could only avoid a more devastating defeat. Lacking spirit, Real Madrid ultimately suffered a crushing 2:5 defeat and missed out on…

The English Premier League is set to witness a highly anticipated clash as Liverpool hosts Manchester City at Anfield. This match is not only significant as a direct confrontation between the top two teams in the league but also marks the first face-to-face encounter between the two young coaches, Klopp and Guardiola. The outcome could have a major impact on the title race for this season. Liverpool has been one of the most outstanding teams in European football this season, leading the Premier League by a massive 8 points and achieving five consecutive victories in the Champions League. Their impressive victories include a 3-1 win over AC Milan, a 4-0 thrashing of Bayer Leverkusen, and a 2-0 clean sheet against Real Madrid, all highlighting their formidable strength and excellent form. In contrast, Manchester City finds itself in a difficult situation, having gone six games without a win in all competitions and suffering four consecutive defeats in the Premier League, which is undoubtedly the biggest crisis in Guardiola's coaching career. Historically, Liverpool has had a clear advantage when playing at home against Manchester City. In the Community Shield final two years ago, Arnold opened the scoring, Salah scored from the penalty spot, and Nunez sealed the victory in stoppage time, with Liverpool winning 3-1. In the league, Liverpool has also defeated City multiple times with scores like 1-0 and 4-3, with players such as Salah and Arnold having rich experience in countering City. Anfield seems to have become a fortress that City struggles to breach. Professional data agency Opta adds more…

On January 13th, Real Madrid suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of Barcelona in the Spanish Super Cup final, missing out on the chance to defend their title. This season, Real Madrid has already lost six games, including a 0-4 defeat against Barcelona in La Liga and another significant loss in this match. Rafinha scored twice and provided an assist, Lewandowski contributed with a goal and an assist, while Gavi and Balde also found the net for Barcelona. Real Madrid managed to score through Mbappe and Rodrygo. If not for Szczesny's red card in the 56th minute, Real Madrid might have faced an even greater defeat. The match highlighted the shortcomings of the 180 million euro star, who occupies the number 10 position but fails to organize the offense and wastes Mbappe's brilliant passes. Just past the halfway point of the season, Real Madrid has already lost six games, including being defeated twice by Barcelona, as well as losses to Lille, Milan, Liverpool, and Athletic Bilbao. Last season, Real Madrid only suffered two defeats, both against Atletico Madrid, indicating a decline in performance this season. With Real Madrid's failure to win the Spanish Super Cup final, the strengths and weaknesses of player Jude Bellingham have become evident. Many fans compare Bellingham to Zinedine Zidane, but in reality, their playing styles are quite different. During the match against Barcelona, Bellingham received a rating of only 6.6, the lowest among the four attacking players in Real Madrid's lineup, scoring lower than Mbappe and the Brazilian duo. Mbappe was the most threatening…

Although Real Madrid showed signs of getting back on track in a short period of the previous season, a crushing defeat in a strong dialogue proved that the team is still far from returning to its former peak state. Currently, if Real Madrid wants to achieve something at the end of the season, it must plug several obvious "holes" in the lineup through recruitment. At the same time, some of the team's underperforming main players are also facing the outcome of being expelled. From the overall performance of the team, the defense has become the key weakness that hinders further progress. Since last season, Ancelotti has been facing the dilemma of "a good cook without rice." However, as the head of the team, Florentino has always been very cautious about defensive recruitment, and Real Madrid has not signed any top-level players in the defense in several consecutive transfer windows. This directly led to Ancelotti having to rely on a makeshift defense to support when Alaba, Militao, Carvajal, and others were out for a long time due to injuries. In addition to the disorganized lineup, the "cliff-like decline" in the form of two main players is also a key factor in the team's poor defensive efficiency. In the right-back position, after losing Carvajal, Ancelotti only had Vazquez left. Since he transitioned from a winger to a full-back, Vazquez's advantage was originally on the offensive end, and defense was not his forte. Moreover, with age, Vazquez's physical fitness and ability to engage in physical confrontations have declined significantly, which further magnified his…

17:10 - Araujo has decided to leave Barcelona in the winter window, but the club is not willing to sell unless they receive a bid of 70 million euros. Juventus believes that Barcelona's asking price is too high and the club's finances cannot afford such a high transfer fee. 17:00 - According to Real Madrid's team reporter, the club has decided to re-evaluate their recruitment situation in the winter window, and Florentino will meet with Ancelotti in the coming days. Ancelotti is unwilling to arrange Bale as the right-back in major matches, and Real Madrid will also try again to sign Arnold in the winter window. 16:58 - Napoli has begun contact with Manchester United, with Conte requesting the signing of Ghanacho to replace Kvaratskhelia, for which Manchester United is asking for 50 million euros. Paris Saint-Germain is negotiating with Napoli, who currently values Kvaratskhelia at 90 million euros. 16:52 - Al Nassr has expressed interest in Nunez, with Liverpool asking for 85 million pounds. Liverpool has contacted Haji Diouf's agent and learned that Slavia Prague is asking for 25 million euros for the player. 16:26 - Bayern Munich has offered a renewal salary of 25 million euros to Alphonso Davies, second only to Harry Kane within the team. Alphonso Davies' agent is currently in Madrid, where Real Madrid has also made an offer, but the salary package is not as good as Bayern's. 15:50 - Kyle Walker is willing to listen to Milan's offer, with Milan negotiating with Manchester City in hopes of signing the player without a transfer…

In the key match between Real Madrid and Barcelona, Real Madrid also surprised everyone with a resounding 2-5 defeat at the hands of Barcelona. The Real Madrid management is very dissatisfied because this season they have been defeated by Barcelona for the second time. And both defeats were quite severe for Real Madrid, and internal discord rumors quickly erupted within Real Madrid. One voice was that the Real Madrid management believed this was a disgraceful game. They have always been opponents of Barcelona, but this defeat was too straightforward. Real Madrid President Florentino Perez also came to watch the game. He is very dissatisfied with the team under Ancelotti, believing that their tactical system and on-field initiative are not enough. Real Madrid has also come up with the idea of changing coaches. In fact, it was previously reported that Real Madrid wanted to change coaches. But then Ancelotti led the team to improve their record in La Liga, avoiding the crisis of being sacked. However, Real Madrid now realizes that their slump this season also requires them to consider finding a strong coach to solve their coaching issues. This time, Real Madrid originally considered inviting Zinedine Zidane back to coach. However, Zidane has now rejected the offer, hoping to wait for the position of the French national team coach to become vacant so that he can lead the national team. Therefore, Real Madrid can only continue to consider other candidates. Among them, Alonso, who is coaching Bayer Leverkusen, is the coach that Real Madrid wants to invite. Whether it is…

In the Spanish Super Cup final held on January 13th, Beijing time, Real Madrid suffered a 2-5 defeat against Barcelona, missing out on the championship. In La Liga, Real Madrid also received bad news as Atletico Madrid's victory saw them take over the top spot in the league. Atletico Madrid's winning streak has been beneficial for the Argentine national team, as several Argentine internationals, including Diego Simeone's son, are part of their squad. Argentina has hit the jackpot! Simeone's son shines, aiding Atletico Madrid to 14 straight wins, and North America adds reinforcements. During the home match against Osasuna, Atletico Madrid scored in the 55th minute. They executed a tactical corner kick, with Griezmann delivering the ball into the penalty area. Lenglet headed it to Alvarez, who easily found the net, securing three points for Atletico. Currently, Atletico leads La Liga by one point over Real Madrid, ranking first. Barcelona trails Atletico by six points in third place, while Athletic Bilbao is eight points behind Atletico in fourth. Diego Simeone, the Atletico Madrid coach and former Argentine international midfielder, has made 102 appearances for the Argentine national team. During his playing career, he won two Copa America titles and one Confederations Cup. There are currently six Argentine internationals in the Atletico squad: Alvarez, Correa, De Paul, Molina, Musso, and Simeone's third son, Giuliano Simeone. The presence of these World Cup-winning Argentine elements has brought good fortune to Atletico, who have achieved an unprecedented 14 consecutive victories since November last year, setting a new club record. The 22-year-old Giuliano Simeone has…
