After scoring the goal, Di Maria excitedly rushed over to hug Ronaldo to celebrate, which made Ronaldo, who had just been scolded by Mourinho, feel much better.
Even though he didn't score a goal, it was good to have an assist, which reduced a lot of pressure on Ronaldo.
After all, the media and fans did not expect anyone to catch up with Lu Wenbin's efficiency of about 2 goals per game.
If you can score a goal or get an assist in two games, it would be considered an excellent performance.
After getting an assist, Ronaldo reduced a lot of psychological pressure and played well in the following games.
In the 41st minute, Ronaldo broke through the wing and cut inside, pretending to shoot from outside the corner of the penalty area. He shook Abidal who was defending him, and then passed the ball across the middle.
Benzema followed up with a shot, but it was saved by Valdes, giving Real Madrid a corner kick.
Afterwards, Xabi Alonso took a corner kick, and Lu Wenbin squeezed through the defense of Puyol and Busquets in the penalty area to get the first point, and headed the ball into the goal.
Lu Wenbin scored twice and Real Madrid led 3-0.
Before the first half was over, Real Madrid beat Barcelona 3-0, which made the fans in the stands excited.
Last season, Real Madrid was beaten 5-0 by Barcelona at Camp Nou. The bloody score and the five fingers raised by Barcelona players and fans, representing the 5-0 slap, still make the hearts of Real Madrid fans bleed.
That was the biggest score difference in the Spanish national derby in the past decade or so, an absolute shame.
In the first round of this season's Spanish Super Cup, although Real Madrid defeated Barcelona 5-1 at home, they still failed to catch up with the 5-goal difference from last season.
The 3-0 score difference at halftime gave Real Madrid fans a chance to wash away the shame. Many fans raised their hands in the stands and shouted 10-0, signaling the players on the field to return double the shame of last season to Barcelona.
Of course, 10-0 is impossible, but most of the players in this game have experienced the 0-5 defeat away from home last season, so naturally everyone wants revenge.
Therefore, even though the lead was already 3-0, Real Madrid players did not slow down their offensive and continued to run, sprint, steal, counterattack, etc. all over the field.
However, Lu Wenbin scored the goal too close to the end of the first half.
In the next few minutes, neither team scored a goal and both teams entered the halftime break with a score of 3-0.
15 minutes later, the two sides changed sides and continued the game.
Although the score of 0-3 is not as high as Barcelona's 5-0 bloodbath of Real Madrid last season, it is still a big defeat even if the game ends with this score.
This score situation forced Barcelona to launch a quick counterattack against Real Madrid.
If Barcelona wanted to pass the ball back in the backcourt, Real Madrid would not panic. Anyway, they were leading in the score and could sit back and relax.
The fans and players wanted a big win to avenge their defeat, but Mourinho didn't care.
It wasn't him who led the team to 0-5 last season, so it's none of his business. All he wants is to win this game.
Therefore, during the half-time break, Mourinho specifically reminded everyone not to be confused by last season's 0-5 defeat, and that they must hold the defense firmly in the second half and then fight back against Barcelona.
If Barcelona panics and wants to score a goal as soon as possible, or even equalize the score, it will actually be more advantageous for Real Madrid who are playing a defensive counterattack.
The speed of Ronaldo, Di Maria and Benzema, and Lu Wenbin's comprehensive offensive ability, can all lead to quick counterattacks and deal a fatal blow to Barcelona.
After being told by the head coach to calm down for 15 minutes, the Real Madrid players in the second half were naturally not as impatient as they were in the second half of the first half. Instead, they held their defense firmly and waited for Barcelona to attack.
When Barcelona attacked, the space in the backcourt was naturally larger. If they intercepted the ball and counterattacked, they would naturally have more chances to score.
Defensive counterattack has always been Mourinho's magic weapon for survival, and he has practiced many routines in training.
On the other hand, Barcelona had to attack in the first place. Now that Real Madrid has shrunk its defense, they have to press forward and fight a positional battle.
However, Real Madrid's defense has improved a lot under Mourinho's coaching compared to the previous coach.
Barcelona attacked for 10 minutes but still had no results.
Although Messi's dribbling caused Alonso to foul and was shown a yellow card by the referee, he still failed to score a goal.
Barcelona's luck was also a bit bad.
In the 52nd minute, Fabregas' lob shot had already gone over the goalkeeper Casillas who was standing in front, but Pepe, who tried hard to return to defense, hooked the ball away on the goal line.
Although Barcelona players surrounded the referee and asked him to call the ball a goal, the referee insisted on his opinion and claimed that the ball did not go in.
Then the replay on the big screen was wrong. The ball did not even reach the goal line, not to mention crossing the goal line, as Pepe cleared the ball with a back hook.
The referee's decision was accurate.
Although the Barcelona players were still somewhat indignant, there was nothing they could do.
If they fail to attack for a long time, they will naturally be counterattacked by Real Madrid.
As a professional in defensive counterattack, Mourinho's team has a very fast counterattack speed. Especially with super fast players like Cristiano Ronaldo, Lu Wenbin and Di Maria, the counterattack speed is the best in the world.
In the 57th minute, Messi dribbled the ball on the wing but was intercepted by Ramos with a fierce and accurate tackle.
Although Messi fell to the ground and asked the referee to call a foul on Ramos, the referee ignored him.
This is a positive tackle.
While Messi was still complaining on the ground and other Barcelona players were cooperating with Messi in the attack, the ball shoveled out by Ramos fell at Di Maria's feet.
Di Maria immediately turned around and ran with the ball. Lu Wenbin and Benzema in the middle and Ronaldo on the other side all turned around and rushed towards Barcelona's half.
The Barcelona players were naturally shocked and also tried their best to defend.
But Real Madrid's counterattack was too fast.
Facing Alves' defense, Di Maria did not try to break through at all, but kicked the ball directly in front of Lu Wenbin who was running in the middle.
Because it was a sudden defensive counterattack, there was no one else defending Lu Wenbin except Busquets.
Pique was defending Benzema, Puyol was defending Ronaldo, and the others participated in the attack and ran to the front court, but it was too late to return to defense.
Under Busquets' repeated pulling and tugging, Lu Wenbin was unable to dribble the ball smoothly.
So, after receiving the pass from Di Maria, Lu Wenbin did not waste any time. He passed the ball to Ronaldo and then made a forward run without the ball.
When Lu Wenbin runs without the ball, it is not possible for Busquets to catch up and defend him alone.
After receiving the ball, Ronaldo was unable to continue dribbling forward under Puyol's pressure. In addition, due to Mourinho's previous warning, Ronaldo did not take a long shot casually, but passed the ball horizontally to Benzema's position in the middle again.
But Benzema was also unable to shoot smoothly under Pique's defense, and the angle was too small. Valdes had blocked most of the angle of his shot.
Therefore, Benzema did not force a shot at a small angle, but raised his foot and knocked the ball with his heel at the moment he was about to receive the ball, knocking it to the back.
This is a defensive counterattack routine practiced in training.
Of course, the counterattack was so smooth this time, and the ball was not touched by Barcelona players during several passes and cuts in the middle, which was also a kind of luck.
Benzema's heel kick caught Puyol and Valdes off guard, and when they tried to grab the ball, it was too late.
