Chapter 202 Atletico Madrid Defeated the Southern King in the First Round!

After the game, Zidane also accepted an interview with the media.

In the interview, Zidane said: "I think today is the most wonderful day for the fans. This strong dialogue is indeed very exciting, and Manchester City played very well."

"They are respectable opponents. We won a draw with difficulty away from home."

"In the first round, we have basically seen the opponent's playing style and understood the characteristics of each team."

"I think the highlight should be in the back. The second round at the Bernabeu is the decisive factor."

"Real Madrid will definitely strive for the ticket to the final."

"We are trying to do this, and I am confident that I can lead this Real Madrid to do well."

As soon as the remarks broke out, they immediately welcomed the support of all Real Madrid fans.

Zidane's words are full of confidence. It seems that this game has given him a lot of understanding of Manchester City. I believe he will come up with something different to deal with the second round.

What is more popular than this interview is not the clip of the game, but the dynamic posted by Bai Ran before!

He wants to test the Premier League's defense, but he has done it at this time!

The comments below were crazy, and Real Madrid fans finally got their heads up!

"All those Barcelona haters get out of here!"

"Look at this goal, how Bai Ran reviewed it!"

This goal almost surpassed Messi's one-on-one pass to five!

In fact, the excitement and continuity were not as eye-catching as Messi's goal, but what level of defenders did Bai Ran face! ?

That was Kompany and Otamendi!

Bai Ran dared to do this to the central defenders known for their ferocity, which was enough to show how strong his courage was!

Fans gave encouragement one after another, and Bai Ran's heart was warm. The madness of the fans also made him full of motivation on the court, and training was more energetic!

This hot game ended, and the players of both sides returned to the locker room to pack up, and the Real Madrid players were about to leave Manchester and return to Madrid to prepare for the next stage.

The impact of this game was huge, and it was even more popular than they imagined.

Due to the draw in the first round, all media and TV self-media accounts are predicting the results of the second round of the Champions League semi-finals.

Who will get the ticket to the final?

At the same time, Real Madrid's players have no time to pay attention to these things. After all, the next round of the league competition will be held in three days, Real Madrid vs. Real Sociedad.

Real Sociedad is really tragic. They just faced Barcelona and will face Real Madrid again.

Their schedule during this period is also very headache.

Fortunately, this game is against Real Madrid. As Real Madrid's younger brother, they also know what to do at this critical moment.

Real Sociedad is currently ranked ninth this season with 40 points. The Champions League zone above has nothing to do with them, and there is no place for them in the relegation zone below.

So Real Sociedad, which ranks in the middle this season, can completely slow down the focus of this game and leave it to Real Madrid's big brothers to fight for the championship.

Since there is a game against Real Sociedad in the schedule, Real Madrid has also temporarily got some rest.

It is precisely because of this that Real Madrid's training has not slowed down.

Even with only three days of rest, Zidane has packed the players' schedule.

After the test of the Manchester City game, they seem to realize that there are still many shortcomings in their team, especially on the defensive end.

So Zidane recently asked the team to practice more defensive ability.

To go further, this team must improve itself step by step. Even if the team is already full of stars, it can't just sit back and eat. In the game of football, if you stagnate, it means you are constantly retreating.

Because the opponents are also working hard to make progress!

Fortunately, at this stage, the players are united and full of fighting spirit. They have no problems at the attitude level.

On the other hand, the Champions League semi-finals have not stopped, and the fierce competition between Atletico Madrid and the Southern King Bayern is also on.

On April 28, the classic competition between Atletico Madrid and Bayern started at the Calderon Stadium.

In this game, Atletico Madrid used its strongest lineup.

Oblak goalkeeper is the first to bear the brunt, and the back line is Jimenez, Savic, Juanfran and Felipe Luis.

Saul, Augusto, Gabi and Koke are in the midfield.

The forward line is still the classic combination of golden boy Fernando Torres and French winger Griezmann.

It can be seen that Atletico Madrid is a 442 counterattack formation, which is Simeone's classic tactic. When facing strong teams, this lineup can often perform well.

The lineup on Bayern's side should not be underestimated. Douglas Costa is the starting player on the left side, the center forward is the Polish heavyweight star Lewandowski, and the starting player on the right is the strong contender for the European Golden Boy in 2015-Kingsley Coman!

Bayern's control in the midfield is also second to none. Xabi Alonso and Thiago form a dimensionality reduction strike at the technical level, and the role of the engineer is played by Vidal.

On the defensive line, left-back Alaba plays as a central defender, partnering with Xavi Martinez, Bernat on the left, and Germany's captain Lahm on the right.

There is also the existence of goalkeeper Neuer, guarding Bayern's solid wall.

This game is very interesting. No matter which one of the two teams enters the finals, they will be a very strong opponent.

As a dark horse in this Champions League, Atletico Madrid once defeated Barcelona. Can they take advantage of this enthusiasm to win Bayern in one fell swoop?

This unique competition begins soon!

After the opening, Atletico Madrid got the first chance to shoot. Koke knocked back a free kick from the left, and Gabi volleyed from the outside, but it was unfortunately missed by Neuer.

Griezmann counterattacked and passed from the left, and Gabi's shot from the front of the penalty area was resolved by Neuer!

Two minutes later, Costa passed back from the right, and Vidal volleyed with his left foot from 27 meters in front of the goal, but Oblak hugged him with both hands!

Bayern missed an opportunity in the 20th minute. Martinez sent an overhead ball from the left. Kingsley Coman moved forward to face Oblak alone, but he did not shoot directly. Instead, he dumped the ball to Lewandowski on the left. Lewandowski Wan's shot from a small angle was blocked by Oblak's body.

Fortunately, Dad Ao came to the rescue!

Atletico Madrid players broke out in cold sweat, this goal was so thrilling!

And 4 minutes later, Douglas Costa intercepted the opponent's clearance on the left and volleyed the ball 28 meters away from the goal, causing Oblak to make the save!

Under the interference of Oblak, Lewandowski's left-footed shot missed.

Costa launched another attack, and his cross from the left was hit to the back point. Lahm's volley from a small angle passed the crossbar.

After the game started, both sides had their own offense and defense, and the scene was very beautiful!

It can be seen that when facing Bayern Munich, Atletico Madrid did not blindly defend, but used its own offensive methods.

They are different from La Liga. When they played against the Bundesliga team, they really showed their blood and offensive momentum, and they just had a 50-50 draw with Bayern!

According to statistics, Atletico Madrid made 13 clearances in the first half hour, while Bayern made none.

It can be seen that although the two teams are fighting against each other offensively, Bayern is obviously more stable defensively.

It is also possible that Atletico Madrid's offensive wave is not that fierce, so they allow the opponent to intercept the ball steadily again and again.

Only 2 minutes passed, Costa took a corner kick from the left, and Martinez moved forward to grab the point!

The ball was caught by Jimenez and fell to the ground with his left hand.

The referee blew the whistle and pointed to the penalty spot!

Penalty kick!

This is a penalty kick, and Bayern has an absolute chance to score!

At the same time, the referee also showed Jimenez a yellow card! Yellow dot set meal!

Although the Atletico Madrid players kept putting pressure on the referee to declare their innocence, the referee did not listen at all and upheld the original decision and awarded a penalty kick!

The kick was taken by Lewandowski. He stood on the penalty spot with a very firm gaze!

Lewandowski's run-up - shot!

The ball hit the lower left corner of the goal! Oblak judged the right direction and rushed to the left!

boom!

There was only a muffled sound and the sound of the collision between the glove and the ball. Oblak miraculously broke this penalty kick opportunity!

In the follow-up shot, Atletico Madrid players did not give Bayern any chance and directly cleared the ball.

Lewan was very annoyed, frowned and pinched his nose.

such a pity!

Almost took the lead!

But the game had to continue after all. In the subsequent game, Juanfran hit the goal from the front of the penalty area on the right side! But the ball missed the far post.

Xabi Alonso shot a low shot from outside the penalty area, but Oblak lowered his head and confiscated it.

Later, Vidal passed the ball from the front of the penalty area, and Lewandowski volleyed 9 meters from the left side of the goal. Oblak took it off and picked it up steadily.

In the subsequent games, Bayern Munich's offensive trend intensified. Atletico Madrid kicked and kicked, and gradually no one could get out of the penalty area, and they were completely beaten by the opponent!

Under the indiscriminate bombardment, Atletico Madrid's defense was under unspeakable huge pressure. At every moment of the defense, all their members were concentrated, and physical collisions were also very frequent!

But you still have to admit that the so-called statistics are only for reference. Sometimes they reflect a team's control, and more often, they just reflect the team's style. Especially in a strong dialogue, ball possession rate really doesn't mean much.

Although Atletico Madrid's counterattack opportunities are not as many as Bayern's shots, they are very deadly every time, and the knife goes straight to the vital point!

And in the 77th minute of the game, Torres received a pass from his teammate, and while advancing forward, the opponent's defender made a movement error.

Seizing this gap, Torres gently pushed the ball to Griezmann, who made continuous movements with his feet to get rid of it and then shot!

This shot was very concealed, and it was a sudden cold arrow, so that the opponent Neuer did not react at all!

The ball went in!

Atletico Madrid scored a goal. Unexpectedly, under such circumstances, Atletico Madrid could score a goal first!

This is simply unbelievable!

This goal destroyed Bayern's self-confidence to a great extent. They dominated the opponent for more than half of the game and had 18 shots, while the opponent only had 5 shots, which allowed the opponent to take the lead. Machine, why!

They thought that Atletico Madrid was a good draw, but they didn't know that at this stage of the game, there were no weak teams and good draws.

These four teams have gone through many difficulties and fought their way all the way.

Who has not gone through hardships to get to this point?

The same goes for Atletico Madrid!

In recent years, Atletico Madrid has been led by Simeone, who is tough but not rough.

In football, the word "iron and blood" is already a common word. We have heard of the iron-blooded Blues, the iron-blooded Inter Milan, and the iron-blooded Juventus, but in the eyes of fans, the only team that can be truly called iron-blooded in the past three years is Simeone's Atletico Madrid!

Although Bayern shot 28 times, nearly double-digit shots were long shots from the periphery, and more than half of the long shots were blocked by the Atletico Madrid midfielder and defender with their bodies. Saul used his head, chest, and thighs to directly face the powerful long shots of Vidal and others. Such a ball, blocking one is an excellent block, and Atletico Madrid's defenders and midfielders blocked 5-6.

Atletico Madrid's defense is very tough, even giving Real Madrid some headaches. Compared with Juventus's chain defense and Benfica's tailor-made iron bucket formation, Atletico Madrid's defense is very aggressive.

Their defense-to-offense conversion rate is very high!

After blocking the backcourt and stealing the ball, they can immediately take advantage of this opportunity to play a beautiful counterattack!

The quality of each time is very high!

And these are what Simeone brought to Atletico, high-position pressing and quick counterattacks, two forwards with excellent positioning and speed, Griezmann and Torres!

Four midfielders with first-class interception and forward passing abilities, mainly Gabi and Koke, formed the first barrier, and then the defenders, mainly Felipe, formed the second interception barrier. The defenders' passing ability must also be very high, and the accuracy and timing of the pass must be just right to form a perfect counterattack opportunity.

This game was so good. Bayern's ball control and passing were like a punch on cotton in front of Simeone's Atletico. The opponent's defense was so tenacious that the offense would be caught off guard if it failed to score.

This exciting game lasted for 90 minutes, and Atletico finally held on to its last line of defense.

In the end, the game ended 1-0, the Calderon Stadium cheered, and Atletico fans held high and celebrated this victory!

No one expected that this dark horse that eliminated Barcelona in the Champions League could actually beat Bayern Munich 1-0!

This Champions League is really worth watching!

On the other hand, Real Madrid's training camp ended, Bai Ran went home to pack up and prepare to go out for a run.

The night fell in Madrid, and the nightlife has just begun.

It is spring now, and the spring breeze is warm on the streets of Madrid with birds singing and flowers blooming. From time to time, the fragrance of petals and grass blows in.

Bai Ran put on headphones, put on sports equipment, and went out for a night run.

On the way, Bai Ran seemed to hear a faint voice calling him.

"Bai Ran!"

"Bai Ran?"

Taking off the headphones, Bai Ran looked in the direction of the voice and was stunned for a moment. It turned out to be a familiar face.

"Alice?"

"Why are you here?"

Alice's delicate face flushed. She had been following Bai Ran all the way just now, and Bai Ran didn't slow down at all!

She panted and said, "You're too fast!"

"I chased you all the way just now and you didn't stop."

Bai Ran scratched his head embarrassedly: "Sorry, I was listening to music."

"What's wrong?"

Alice calmed her breath and said, "The sneakers at Anbu Company have been developed. I invite you to come and see if there are any elements that need to be added or deleted."

After listening to this, Bai Ran suddenly realized that this matter had not been discussed before?

The R&D personnel at Anbu Company started working directly and worked overtime to design Bai Ran's first exclusive sneakers-the White Dragon series.

I didn't expect that this "White Dragon" series would produce results so soon.

I don't know how the sales of my exclusive sneakers are, and whether they are comfortable to wear.

If possible, this pair of sneakers will be on the market in a few days, and I must wear it to the Champions League final according to the terms of the contract.

Just at this juncture, Bai Ran is also a little tired, and he can indeed go and take a look.

"Okay, then you can pick me up tomorrow."

"But it has to be after 4pm."

Even if he had to go to Anbu to check, Bai Ran couldn't delay his training.

In fact, Real Madrid's training camp was finished at about 1am every day, but Bai Ran had to complete his extra training every day, so it was about the same to finish at 4pm.

Alice also agreed, and Bai Ran invited her to his home for a cup of tea, but Alice declined.

Later, Bai Ran learned that Alice actually developed in China when she was a child, and was a thorough Chinese of Spanish descent.

So her ideas were similar to those of Asians, and she received a better education since childhood, and was still relatively conservative.

Although Bai Ran was her client, it was still not good to go to a boy's home privately, and the girl knew this very well.

The next day, it was the training camp in the Real Madrid base. Everyone's mental state was surprisingly good, and even the few playful players in the past became serious.

At this stage of the game, the season is about to end. They have the absolute initiative to win the league championship, and they have already tied 3-3 in the Champions League semi-finals. If they win the double championship this season, it will be the beginning of a legend.

Everyone takes it very seriously, including Bai Ran.

No one talks about women, drinking, or games anymore. In their spare time, they discuss tactical analysis and technical knowledge.

In this high-end game discussion, Bai Ran will also learn a lot of game experience.

At this time, Bai Ran noticed that Modric seemed absent-minded.

No one talked to him, and he did not discuss with his teammates.

From time to time, Modric would look at Bai Ran, wondering what he was going to do.

And the next moment, Modric seemed to have made some mental preparations, and immediately stood up and came to Bai Ran.

"I have something to tell you."

"Come here."
