After eliminating arch-rivals Barcelona, Mourinho gave his players a day off.
Then, on January 28, Real Madrid faced Zaragoza in the 21st round of La Liga at home.
Zaragoza is currently ranked last in the standings. Although it wants to fight hard with Real Madrid to get points and avoid relegation, the huge gap in strength makes Zaragoza helpless.
After 90 minutes, the score on the big screen was 6-1. Although Zaragoza scored a goal, they were still defeated by Real Madrid.
In this game, after Lu Wenbin scored two goals in the first half, he was substituted at halftime to prepare for the next King's Cup semi-final.
At 9 p.m. on February 1st, Real Madrid will play away against Valencia in the semi-final of the 2011/2012 Spanish King's Cup.
Because Lu Wenbin has to return to the National Olympic Team to participate in the Austrian Asian preliminaries and also attend the Laureus Sports Awards ceremony, he may not be able to participate in the second round of the semi-finals.
Therefore, although the first round was played away, Mourinho still played the host and tried to win with a big score to eliminate suspense in the second round.
Lu Wenbin also tried his best, running all over the court, constantly shooting or assisting teammates.
Although Valencia is currently ranked third in La Liga and has considerable strength, even second-placed Barcelona is completely suppressed by Real Madrid, let alone Valencia.
Just 8 minutes into the game, Lu Wenbin used a wonderful bicycle kick to force his opponent to knock him down outside the penalty area, winning himself a free kick opportunity.
Then, Lu Wenbin activated the system skill and sent the ball directly into Valencia's goal.
Lu Wenbin used his free kick to help Real Madrid take a 1-0 lead away from home.
However, 10 minutes later, in the 18th minute, Valencia played a wonderful team cooperation, and the winger Piatti scored a low shot from the rib of the penalty area and Valencia equalized the score.
This goal made the home fans at Mestalla Stadium very excited. They shouted in the stands, hoping that the team would keep up the good work and reverse the score.
But the facts proved that Valencia's strength was indeed far behind Real Madrid, and it was luck that they could score a goal.
Next, Real Madrid players kept scoring goals, while Valencia did not score a single goal.
In the 31st minute, Lu Wenbin emptied the opponent's left defense through continuous maneuvers near the penalty area, and then Benzema assisted Ronaldo to score Real Madrid's second goal, and Real Madrid took the lead again.
In the 39th minute, Valencia got an attacking opportunity, but Alonso intercepted the ball and launched a counterattack when it reached the frontcourt.
Alonso made a straight pass that penetrated Valencia's defense, but the pass was slightly off target. Although Benzema successfully caught the ball after offside, the shooting angle was slightly low and Valencia goalkeeper Alves was ready to save the shot.
So, Benzema feinted near the corner of the small penalty area and then passed the ball back to the penalty spot in the large penalty area.
Following up, Lu Wenbin used his superior physique and speed to volley the ball into the far corner of the goal before the two Valencia defenders who were marking him closely.
Although Alves tried his best to save the ball, he still couldn't catch up with the speed of Lu Wenbin's shot.
Lu Wenbin scored twice to help Real Madrid lead 3-1 away from home and scored three away goals.
In the next few minutes, neither side scored any more goals, and the referee blew the whistle to end the first half.
After a 15-minute break, the two sides changed sides and Valencia, playing at home, was naturally unwilling to lose.
If they lose at home, the chances of coming back and advancing away from home will be even smaller.
Therefore, in the second half, Valencia withdrew a defensive midfielder and replaced him with a forward, changing from 4231 to 4132, pressing forward as a whole and launching a fierce attack on Real Madrid.
But Real Madrid's tactics are exactly what they want their opponents to do!
In the 53rd minute, Valencia midfielder Jonas's dribbling breakthrough was blocked by Pepe, and then the ball was passed to Marcelo. Real Madrid launched another quick counterattack, and finally Di Maria assisted Benzema to score, and Real Madrid led 4-1.
After falling behind by three goals at 1-4, Valencia became more anxious and the whole team pressed forward to attack, but this made it easier for Real Madrid to counterattack.
In the 68th minute, Valencia's attack was interrupted again. After getting the ball, Lu Wenbin ran more than 60 meters from the backcourt to the frontcourt, passed three people in a row, and then faced the attacking goalkeeper Alves and made a lob shot.
The ball landed accurately along the bottom edge of the crossbar and into the goal.
Lu Wenbin scored a hat trick and Real Madrid led 5-1.
With a 4-goal lead and 5 away goals to spare, Real Madrid's advancement to the final is basically secured.
Therefore, in the 72nd minute, Mourinho replaced Lu Wenbin with Kaka.
After Kaka came on the pitch, Di Maria assisted him to score a goal in the 85th minute. Finally, with Lu Wenbin's hat trick and goals from Benzema, Ronaldo and Kaka, Real Madrid defeated Valencia 6-1 away in the first leg of the King's Cup semi-final, making the second leg no longer suspenseful in advance.
After the game, Lu Wenbin left Spain and flew to Qatar. He did not participate in the 22nd round of La Liga match between Real Madrid and Getafe away on February 4.
Real Madrid almost capsized in this game.
Although Real Madrid only regards Atletico Madrid as its city rival, only the game against Atletico Madrid is the Madrid derby.
But in the eyes of the people of Getafe, a satellite city of Madrid, they are also a team belonging to the Madrid region, and their games with Real Madrid are also Madrid derbies.
Any team is very excited when playing a derby. Getafe, currently ranked 8th, showed great fighting power at their home stadium and broke through Casillas' goal twice.
Fortunately, Real Madrid has enough superstars.
In the end, thanks to goals from two Ballon d'Or winners, Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka, Real Madrid managed to escape from Getafe with a 2-2 draw.
In the days without Lu Wenbin, Real Madrid's combat effectiveness has indeed declined a lot.
However, Real Madrid's unbeaten streak has not been broken and its unbeaten streak continues.
The day after Real Madrid was tied by Getafe, the fourth round of the Austrian Asian Qualifiers group match between the Chinese U23 National Olympic Team and the Qatar National Olympic Team was held in Doha, Qatar.
Lu Wenbin is a killer in the five major European leagues, not to mention the U23 Auas preliminary level competition in Asia.
Although Lu Wenbin only played half of this game, he still scored four goals and made an assist in 45 minutes, helping the Chinese Olympic team to a 5-1 lead in the first half.
After Lu Wenbin was substituted in the second half, China and Qatar each scored a goal. The Chinese Olympic team finally brought back a 6-2 victory from Qatar. With four wins, they continued to lead the group with 12 points.
In another match, the South Korean Olympic team defeated Saudi Arabia 1-0, with a total of 7 points, 5 points behind the Chinese team.
In the next two rounds of the Austrian and Asian qualifying group matches, unless the Chinese team loses all the games and the Korean team wins all the games, the Korean National Olympic Team can replace the Chinese team, win the first place in the group and advance to the London Olympics.
As for the Chinese team, they only need to win one more game to advance directly to the London Olympics. Even if they only get a draw, the strong goal difference advantage is enough to surpass the South Korean team to qualify.
The direct qualification spot for the London Olympics is beckoning the Chinese Olympic team.
