Chapter 1349 Is it really just a coincidence?

Some people say that the fairest thing in the world is death!
Everyone will die, it is inevitable.

For professional players, the fairest thing should be to retire.

No matter how hard every player persists, no matter how hard he works, he will eventually be unable to escape the day when he retires.

Yang Yang has been playing football for more than ten years, and he really doesn't know what it will be like if one day in the future, he starts to live a life without football games?
He must be very, very uncomfortable!

After all, all these years, everything in his life revolves around football. If he stops playing football, his life will definitely be messed up, and he may even be at a loss.

It is also because of this that Yang Yang works hard to maintain his physical function and competitive state. He hopes that he can play longer and maintain his state longer.

Although he is only 29 years old, although he is still in very good condition, he needs to plan ahead and make adjustments in advance.

……

"Diet needs to be changed, and the intensity of training can no longer be as high as before. Many training programs may no longer be suitable for you in the future. We will closely track your training and physical changes in the next period of time." Pintus is Real Madrid's fitness coach and the number one expert in charge of Yang Yang's training adjustments.

"I've already made arrangements. From now on, I will go to the medical room for testing every day after the training session. We need to get the most detailed data to be able to grasp and understand your physical condition."

After hearing this, Yang Yang nodded and agreed. This is not difficult for him.

"Yang Yang is characterized by flexibility, running, and lightness of his feet. He starts quickly, and his physical resistance is also acceptable. I think it is not enough to just control diet and training. If you want to maintain this state, you should lose weight." Winston Bogard suggested.

"You mean, I'm overweight now?" Yang Yang frowned.

"For you now, this weight should be about the same, but as you age, your body function and muscles will also be affected. If you still maintain your current weight, your body load will increase. At that time, you will find that your flexibility and body sensitivity are declining."

"So, I think you should lose your weight. When you are 30 years old, it is best to reduce it to about [-] kilograms. I believe that properly reducing these weights will make your muscles more dynamic, thereby ensuring your physical function and physical condition, and maintaining your competitive state."

"After the age of 30, I think it still needs to be reduced every year. The specific amount of reduction needs to be referenced through more data obtained from tests, but it is definitely necessary to reduce some every year, and it is necessary to be more cautious in dealing with injuries."

As soon as Winston Bogard finished speaking, Pintus kept nodding, "Winston is right. Losing weight is really necessary, and there is also a need to rest, not only for sleep and other aspects, but also for muscle rest. Swimming is a very good exercise for relaxing muscle pressure. You can persist, and we will observe the rest."

"The diet should be low-sugar and low-fat. You should eat more fruits. On the football field, you should minimize emergency stops and speed changes. In addition, you must distribute your energy reasonably. I'm not talking about a game, but a long season. You need more rest."

Yang Yang smiled wryly, because he found that there were too many things he needed to do.

It can be said that this needs to change everything from his daily routine to daily training to game performance. This is really a bit difficult for him, but after thinking about it, can it not be difficult?

How many people are falling on this critical node?
Throughout the ages, how many stars have suddenly declined in form around the age of 30?
This is a hurdle!

Not only is it a hurdle for professional players, but it is also a hurdle for ordinary people.

"I'm a little scared when you say that." Yang Yang laughed bitterly at himself.

Pintus and Winston Bogard all three laughed.

"It sounds troublesome, but it's actually not that scary. In the next few months, we will closely track and test your data, and strive to come up with an adjustment plan when the team trains in July. This is our most important task next."

From Florentino to Valdano, and then to Zidane, everyone is very concerned about Yang Yang's plan, because everyone knows that 30 years old is a hurdle, and whether Yang Yang can successfully pass this hurdle is very important to Real Madrid.

But even if it is over, it is only the beginning, because every year in the future will be a hurdle for Yang Yang.

Even as his age increases, this hurdle will become more and more difficult to pass, and if he is a little careless, he may even be unable to cross it.

No one wants to see this happen.

…………

…………

Regarding Yang Yang's transformation, it is a secret inside Real Madrid.

Winston Bogard will live in Madrid for a period of time. As a personal trainer who has followed Yang Yang for many years, no one knows Yang Yang's body better than him. He knows best how to help Yang Yang.

But the football game still has to go on.

On the evening of March [-]th, the Bernabéu Stadium.

Real Madrid hosts Roma in the second round of the knockout round of the Champions League round of [-].

With a [-]-[-] lead in the first round, there is no suspense for Real Madrid to advance to the quarter-finals. However, against Rome at home, Real Madrid still played with the main lineup and did not dare to be careless.

There are no underdogs in the UEFA Champions League, let alone entering the knockout round of the top [-]. If they are reversed, it will be a big loss.

The two teams scored 601-1 in the first half, but after changing sides in the second half, in the [-]st minute, Vazquez, who had just come on as a substitute for Di Maria, sent a cross from the right in just [-] minute, and Yang Yang made a push in front of the goal, opening the scoring for Real Madrid.

Only 4 minutes later, Yang Yang sent an assist and James Rodriguez scored a goal.

In the end, Real Madrid defeated Roma [-]-[-] at home and advanced to the quarter-finals with a total score of [-]-[-].

…………

…………

Three days later, in the ninth round of No.20 La Liga, Real Madrid challenged Las Palmas away.

In the expedition to the Canary Islands, Yang Yang did not go out with the team, but stayed in Madrid.

Real Madrid did not play well.

In the No.204 minute of the first half, Isco assisted Ramos to score with a corner kick, which also allowed Real Madrid to lead until the end of the game. In the No.807 minute, Las Palmas equalized the score.

But at the critical moment, Casemiro's lore scored three points for Real Madrid. In the end, they defeated Las Palmas [-]-[-] in the away game and retreated from the away game. However, Ramos got a yellow card in the final stage of the game, was accumulated two yellow cards, and was sent off with a red card.

At the same time, Barcelona beat Getafe [-]-[-] at home. Messi scored a goal and performed a hat-trick of assists. He also missed a penalty, but these were irrelevant.

Barcelona won six goals, and they are in good shape recently.

Three days later, with the momentum of a six-goal victory, Barcelona defeated Arsenal [-]-[-] at home. After winning [-]-[-] away in the first leg, they successfully eliminated the Premier League team with a total score of [-]-[-] and advanced to the quarter-finals of the Champions League.

……

After the Champions League quarter-finals were determined, FIFA held a draw ceremony at the Swiss headquarters.

Real Madrid was lucky this time, and got Wolfsburg in the Bundesliga.

It is a bit surprising to say that the Bundesliga Wolfsburg was drawn in the same group as Manchester United and PSV Eindhoven in the group stage, but no one expected that Van Gaal's team did not perform well in the Champions League group stage this season.

Especially in the last round of key games, they lost [-]-[-] to Wolfsburg in the away game. In the end, they only got the third place in the group, failed to advance to the Champions League knockout stage, and were forced to go to the Europa League.

It can be said that this battle basically sentenced Van Gaal to death. Even if he failed to dismiss get out of class during the winter break as expected by the media, everyone basically concluded that his Manchester United coaching journey has come to an end.

In the round of [-] knockout rounds, Wolfsburg eliminated the Belgian team Genk [-]-[-] away and [-]-[-] at home.

Real Madrid drew Wolfsburg, luck is not bad.

In the same half of the area is another duel between local tyrants. Manchester City of the Abu Dhabi consortium faced Paris Saint-Germain of the Qatar consortium. The contest between these two European local tyrants is also particularly eye-catching.

Among them, Paris Saint-Germain defeated Chelsea in the knockout round of the sixteenth round, and once again advanced to the quarterfinals, and both rounds were two-to-one double kills. It can be seen that the strength of this Ligue [-] powerhouse is really worth noting.

If Paris Saint-Germain beat Pellegrini's Manchester City again, it will have another encounter with Real Madrid.

But whether it is Paris Saint-Germain or Manchester City, neither is a fuel-efficient lamp. No matter who they meet, Real Madrid will feel a headache.

In the other half, Barcelona met Atletico Madrid.

Perhaps many people have not noticed that this is the third consecutive season that the top three of La Liga met in the knockout round of the quarterfinals.

In the [-]-[-] season, Barcelona met Atletico Madrid. Last season, Real Madrid met Atletico Madrid. This season, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid met again. For three consecutive seasons, the top three of La Liga fought against each other. This is somewhat arousing.

So much so that when the results of the draw came out, the Spanish media once again made friends with UEFA's draw, thinking that it was an intention to eliminate La Liga teams, because with the strength of the top three in La Liga, no matter who they met, they would definitely be able to advance to the semi-finals.

But now that they are fighting in the same room, it proves that at most two La Liga teams can advance to the semi-finals. I have to say that this makes La Liga fans feel a little regretful.

Once or twice can be said to be accidental, but for three consecutive years, how much is it really just accidental?
Bayern Munich had the best luck in the draw. They got Benfica from the Portuguese Super League. This can almost be said to be the weakest of the top eight teams.

As for who can advance between Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, it depends on the results of the battle between them.
