Chapter 342 Peerless twins! Don't be ridiculous, that's Atletico Madrid! [A big chapter with words, please beg me to subscribe]

The third round of La Liga was very chaotic.

Deschamps' Deportivo lost to Espanyol 2-3 at home.

After two years of accumulation, the strength accumulated by the Spaniards finally began to explode, and now they truly have the strength to impact the European theater.

Rayo Vallecano, who had won two consecutive games in the beginning, was taught by Aragones in this round at Real Mallorca.

La Liga is La Liga after all, and the newly promoted team should not be too arrogant.

And they lost miserably, 0 to 4!

The famous coaching showdown between Aguirre and Aragones is very interesting to watch.

Villarreal lost to Athletic Bilbao 2-3 away from home. International center Llorente scored twice and Javi Martinez scored the winning goal.

Obviously, they all heard Yang Hao's appeal.

The final battle is Barcelona vs. Atletico Madrid at home.

Mourinho is quite satisfied with the result.

On the evening of April 9, Barcelona’s Camp Nou Stadium.

In front is the trident combination of Eto'o, Tevez and Robben, whose main focus is a sharp counterattack.

Atletico Madrid mainly focuses on passing, cutting and controlling the ball, constantly organizing and planning offensives, focusing on counterattacks and taking the initiative.

Barcelona is always trying every possible means to cut off the passing and ball control of Atletico Madrid players and prevent them from forming a continuous offensive.

At this moment, no one in the world would have imagined what Kaka could do with the ball.

The whole scene was similar to the first leg of the Spanish Super Cup in South Africa.

Although Yang Hao's team kept attacking from the beginning, they were never able to break through Barcelona's defense.

Mourinho focused on defense throughout the first half.

But Yang Hao has obviously learned from the experience and lessons of the first round of the Spanish Super Cup. He did not be too greedy for success and played a relatively stable game.

Defensively, the defense combination led by Thiago Silva also ensures the stability of the defense.

The first half of the game was about to end, and the score was still 0-0.

Barcelona's two lines of defense are in place, and the defensive players are ready.

Just like in the 43rd minute, Kaka advanced with the ball this time.

There was a bit of a stalemate on the scene, which wasn’t pretty.

At this time, what can Kaka do with the ball?

The worst thing is to apply a little pressure, hit the wall and pass it back.

In the 3th round of La Liga, Atletico Madrid challenged Barcelona away.

……

Valencia beat Sporting Gijon 4-0 at home.

But the fun thing about football is that it's unique every time.

It might be a sudden pass, an aimless shot, an inexplicable cross, or a seemingly harmless dribbling.

He even played intermittently.

Carlo Ancelotti's team continues to advance with three consecutive wins.

Therefore, in this battle, even though Barcelona was playing at home, they still used a three-midfielder style of play.

The Brazilian didn't hesitate and rushed forward with the ball quickly.

Moreover, the Basque Lions have very few international players, and there is no impact from the European war in the middle of the week. It seems reasonable to play at home, wait for work, and give Villarreal a sap.

A chance to break the situation!

No one knows when such an opportunity will come.

Just like when he pushed the ball forward several times before.

It can be said that Barcelona's defense is in order.

This resulted in Barcelona's several counterattacks failing to pose a threat.

……

When Kaka quickly moved forward on the right rib, crossed the center line, and received Alves' cross, there was a gap in front of him.

After two years, Barcelona fans have actually become accustomed to the team's defensive counterattack tactics, and they also clearly realize that with the current team's lineup, defensive counterattack is the best choice.

Therefore, Barcelona fans have been waiting for the birth of "surprise" throughout the first half.

Atletico Madrid's players expected to hit Barcelona's iron wall early on, and the players played more patiently this time.

That's when the players in the frontcourt suddenly had a flash of inspiration and made a threatening counterattack to score Atletico Madrid's goal.

Real Madrid relied on Ronaldo's brace to beat newly promoted Jerez 5-0 at home.

The team accumulated all its strength there, kept pushing forward, kept adding bricks and mortar, and patiently waited for an opportunity.

Although Barcelona's several counterattacks failed to break through Atletico Madrid's defense, at least they did not allow the sheet army to break through Barcelona's defense. This is a very good result.

That's how Mourinho plays.

Messi followed suit on the right sideline.

When the two rushed into Barcelona's 30-meter area at the same time, Kaka split the ball to the right.

At this time, Abidal quickly grabbed the ball and ran towards Messi.

Messi did not stop the ball, but in front of Abidal, he spiked the ball and cut inward laterally.

Kaka continued to advance along the right rib, attracting the defensive attention of Thiago Motta and Muntari.

Since Kaká is sprinting forward and Abidal is grabbing the ball, Thiago Motta and Muntari are both on guard against Kaká attacking the right area behind Abidal.

This is Atletico Madrid's best offensive coordination.

Once Kaká rushes over, Messi will pass the ball to the right, and Kaká makes a pass.

At the same time, Messi spiked the ball and cut inward laterally, taking Abidal away, while Alves moved in faster.

This forces Thiago Motta and Muntari to help Abidal plug the defensive holes on the left.

The final result was that Thiago Motta and Muntari were forced to retreat to the front of the penalty area by Kaká's movement, which created enough space for Messi to cut in laterally.

The Argentinian dribbled the ball all the way and cut inside laterally, but Abidal was always stuck on the right side, blocking his path to turn forward.

Just in time, Iniesta ran over from the right rib to meet Messi.

The Argentinian immediately passed the ball and ran diagonally toward the center of the arc.

Iniesta took two horizontal steps and passed the ball forward to Kaká's feet.

On the right side of the front line of the penalty area, Kaka turned his back to the direction of attack and passed Iniesta's pass diagonally to the right side of the top area of ​​the arc, right on Messi's path.

At this time, Abidal was chasing Messi all the way.

Further forward, five defensive players, Juanfran, Bruno Alves, Puyol, Thiago Motta, and Muntari, lined up almost close to the penalty area line.

Torres was closely marked by Bruno Alves and was blocked at the top of the arc with his back to the direction of attack.

After catching up with Kaká's pass, Messi kicked the ball directly to Torres, pointed forward, and quickly moved forward between Puyol and Thiago Motta.

Torres understood it and blocked it with his foot. The ball passed by Messi immediately changed its direction, passed between Bruno Alves and Puyol, and passed to the right side of the penalty spot in the penalty area.

Buffon was shocked and immediately abandoned the goal and attacked.

At almost the same time, the entire Camp Nou stadium also heard screams from Barcelona fans.

I saw Messi jump in as quickly as possible, get ahead of Buffon, and take a shot.

Although the Argentine was knocked down by Buffon's fierce attack and lost his balance and threw forward, the ball was still lifted up by him, passed Buffon's header, and fell to the unguarded goal behind him. goal.

"my God!!!!"

"Atletico Madrid created another work of art goal!!"

"It's wonderful! It's wonderful!"

When Messi's shot fell into the bottom of the Barcelona goal net, the entire Camp Nou stadium was in an uproar.

Everyone showed disbelief.

Especially the on-site commentator of the broadcast couldn't help but exclaimed.

"This is the goal we want to see the most! This is the wonderful football in the minds of all of us!"

"Every pass is worthy of our repeated savoring, and every run is worthy of our repeated scrutiny."

"What we saw was not only the fantastic footwork and skills of Atletico Madrid players, but also their unparalleled tacit understanding and quick-thinking brainstorming."

"We can definitely imagine that this was something they did on the fly rather than premeditated."

"But it is precisely because of this that it is particularly precious."

"Only Atletico Madrid can always stage such intoxicating and gorgeous goals!"

"The Atletico Madrid trained by Yang Hao can not only compete for the championship, but also shock the hearts of all fans."

"Just use their fantastic attacking football!"

When the live broadcast camera switched to the sidelines, it could be clearly seen that at the moment when Messi scored the goal, Yang Hao was so excited that he knelt down in the coaching area, clenched his hands into fists, and cheered loudly there.

In front of the home team's coaching bench, Mourinho held his head in his hands, looking very confused and distressed.

It was also very painful.

Previously, in the first round of the Spanish Super Cup, Barcelona at least scored first and then was reversed.

But now?

Before the end of the first half, it was Atletico Madrid who scored.

How to play in the second half?

Go all out and press Atletico Madrid to attack?

Don't be ridiculous, man!

That's Atletico Madrid!

……

"I have a big doubt. What is the hatred between Messi and Barcelona?"

Mourinho turned his head with a distressed look on his face, came to the home team's coaching bench, and asked his assistants with a puzzled look on his face.

But no one in the huge coaching staff can give the answer.

Yes, why does Messi hate Barcelona so much?

"I always feel that every time this kid meets us at Barcelona, ​​it's like getting a shot of chicken blood. Did we owe him in a previous life? Or was he abandoned by Barcelona?"

Everyone felt very puzzled.

Before Messi went to Atletico Madrid, it was said that he had thought about contacting Barcelona, ​​but he only contacted Barcelona through his agent and there was no progress at all, so it can't be said that he was abandoned, right?

"According to the media, it is said that when he first came to Atletico Madrid, Barcelona scolded Yang Hao, and the person Messi respects the most is Yang Hao, so..."

"Just because of this trivial matter, he holds a grudge to this day?" Mourinho found it incredible.

Is this reason too far-fetched?

Could it be said that if you are small, you are also small-minded?

"You know, without Yang Hao, there would be no Messi today." Faria smiled bitterly.

It is difficult for ordinary people to guess about Messi's experience.

Perhaps, in his mind, Yang Hao is a god-like existence.

In fact, Yang Hao now has such a lofty status in the hearts of Atletico Madrid players and fans.

"To be honest, every time I encounter Atletico Madrid, I have to do everything possible to stop Messi, but I still can't find an effective way."

Mourinho was also troubled.

He had already guarded Messi to this extent, but he still got taken advantage of.

Just like that ball just now, how to defend it?

All are passed by one kick. The players cooperate with each other so skillfully and move so smartly. The defensive players are really unable to guard against it.

Unless, foul.

But in hindsight, it was certainly worth a foul.

But what about standing in front?

There are 5 people in the back line and the midfielder is also there. Is it necessary to commit a foul outside the penalty area at this time?

If you have to commit a foul every time you encounter this situation, are Atletico Madrid's free kicks from outside the penalty area too many?

By then, will it be easier for Messi to hit the goal?

The Argentinian's direct free kicks are becoming more and more powerful.

Mourinho felt his head hurt when he thought of this.

It’s so difficult!

"What to do next?" Faria asked in embarrassment.

Mourinho closed his eyes and shook his head. He didn't know what to do now.

Risk your life with Atletico Madrid?

Or should we continue to wait for opportunities?

No matter which choice you make, there are valid reasons, but they all seem to be wrong.

……

At the beginning of the second half, there were not many bright spots for both sides.

It can even be said that no.

After Atletico Madrid took a 1-goal lead, they tried to take the initiative to stop kicking.

Yang Hao's purpose is to hope that Mourinho can attack. In this case, Atletico Madrid will have more space to attack. This is also a common tactic after taking the lead.

But what about Mourinho?

It was true that he was a little more active, but he didn't dare to press out and play, and he still played very cautiously.

This resulted in both sides failing to form good opportunities at the beginning of the game.

Barcelona's defensive strategy is still very clear. Attack and counterattack are handed over to the front trident, giving full play to the threats of Tevez, Robben and Eto'o. As for the defense...

Limiting Atletico Madrid's offensive space is still the top priority.

This seems very contradictory, and it is quite confusing to play.

This resulted in Barcelona's players never being able to play any decent offense on the court.

10 minutes later, it turned to defense again.

After 10 minutes, Atletico Madrid saw that Barcelona had no idea of ​​​​pressing out to fight, so they attacked again.

However, after taking a 1-goal lead, Atletico Madrid also played relatively safely.

It wasn't until the 70th minute that Barcelona tried to strengthen their frontcourt offense.

Mourinho made continuous substitutions, especially Fabregas, in order to organize and plan more offensives.

But Atletico Madrid fought back several times.

Especially during a quick advance, Kaka sent a direct pass. After Messi's shot from the right side of the penalty area was saved by Buffon, the entire Camp Nou was frightened.

Almost conceded again.

Although it was only 76 minutes, Mourinho also began to seek stability.

The ball and rhythm were under Atletico Madrid's control from beginning to end, and it was always difficult for Barcelona to play at its familiar rhythm.

In the end, Atletico Madrid won 1-0 at Camp Nou with Messi's wonderful shot.

After the game, Atletico Madrid's goal received overwhelming praise from the outside world.

Almost everyone believes that this goal is comparable to the previous goal in the Spanish Super Cup. They are both works of art, and they are goals that only Atletico Madrid can score.

When the entire scoring process was cut into a video and posted on YouTube, it became popular again.

……

Due to the World Cup in South Africa, all league schedules this season will be compressed.

After the third round in the middle of the week, La Liga ushered in the fourth round.

Real Madrid defeated Villarreal 2-0 with goals from Cristiano Ronaldo and Yaya Toure.

This was the most talked-about game on the first match day. The two sides played very exciting and aggressive battles, but in the end the Yellow Submarine was slightly inferior.

In La Liga, the only team that has the ability to compete with Real Madrid is Atletico Madrid.

After losing to Atletico Madrid 0-1 at home, Barcelona went to the away game and defeated Racing Santander 2-1.

Diego Milito and Bruno Alves scored one goal each.

Among them, the Portuguese central defender scored a direct free kick from the front of the penalty area.

Bruno Alves' direct free kick is quite powerful.

Atletico Madrid return home to face Almeria.

Messi continued his excellent form this season.

In just 20 minutes, he assisted Torres to score a goal.

3 minutes later, Modric assisted Messi to score another victory, expanding the score to 2-0!

In the 25th minute, there was a chance for a corner kick. Torres headed the ball and Ramos scored from close range, 3-0!

After changing sides in the second half, in the 53rd minute, another direct pass from Modric, Messi broke into the penalty area and kicked the goal, expanding the score again, 4-0!

Almeria scored a face-saving goal before the end of the game.

In the end, Atletico defeated Almeria 4-1 at home. Messi scored two shots and passed the ball, and was elected the best of the match.

……

Over the weekend, La Liga ushered in the fifth round.

Real Madrid defeated Rayo Vallecano 3-0 at home.

This game is known as Madrid's little derby, and the implication is that Rayo Vallecano is also a team in the center of Madrid.

It is worth mentioning that Rayo Vallecano has officially reached an agreement with the Madrid City Government. They will accept the La Pennetta Stadium in the eastern suburbs of the city and further complete the construction of the stadium while retaining the stadium stands.

But unlike Atletico Madrid in Yang Hao's previous life, Rayo Vallecano's initial plan is to have a stadium capacity of only more than 5 people, retaining the space and foundation for further expansion in the future.

This is also in line with Vallecano's current positioning.

After all, in Madrid, they don't have the fan base of Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid.

According to Rayo Vallecano's plan, after the construction of La Pennetta Stadium is completed, Rayo Vallecano will move into the new stadium, and the original Vallecas Stadium will be demolished and used to build commercial housing. It was also during this plan that Yang Hao heard that Calso Group, the company behind America Telecom, was negotiating to acquire the shares of Spanish FCC Construction Group. Once the two parties reached a deal, both new stadium projects and commercial residential projects would be taken care of by FCC Group. Undertake construction.

The boss behind the Kalso Group is Slim, the world's richest man.

Yang Hao now had to admit that these wealthy people were really far-sighted and well-informed when it came to investing.

Who is like him?

One thing is to focus on Apple and Tesla.

Although backed by the world's richest man, Rayo Vallecano's investment is still subject to review by La Liga, and they are unwilling to increase investment unscrupulously.

This leads to a clear gap between their overall strength and Real Madrid.

This round was defeated by Real Madrid.

Benzema scored twice and Yaya Toure scored the third.

Sevilla defeated Athletic Bilbao 4-0 away from home.

Barcelona defeated Malaga 2-0 away from home.

Atletico Madrid drew 2-2 with the Bats in an away game against Valencia.

Although after the opening, the Sheets Army took the lead with Messi's goal in just 7 minutes.

But then, with a wonderful pass from David Silva, Torres' shot was saved by Cech like a miracle.

The sheet army launched continuous offensives.

David Silva soon sent another wonderful pass, and Messi's shot from close range was blocked by Lucio with his body.

When Valencia couldn't attack for a long time, Valencia made a quick counterattack in the 27th minute. Nani sent a cross from the right, and Villa shot low from the left side of the small penalty area, breaking Atletico Madrid's goal and successfully equalizing the score.

After changing sides in the second half, Atletico Madrid continued to launch offensives.

First, David Silva's shot hit the post, and then Torres's follow-up shot was saved by Cech.

But in the 56th minute, Atletico Madrid scored again.

Kaka's goal helped Atletico Madrid surpass the score again.

But before the end of the game, Sneijder sent a wonderful pass and Robin van Persie scored, leveling the score again.

In the end, the two sides shook hands and settled for a draw 2-2.

This led to the fact that after this round of games, Real Madrid became the only team in La Liga with 5 consecutive wins, while Atletico Madrid ranked second with 4 wins and 1 draw.

……

September 9, Stadio Franchi, Florence, Italy.

In the second round of the Champions League group stage, Atletico Madrid faced Fiorentina away from home.

In the words of Yang Hao when he criticized Atletico Madrid players after the game, this game was played very poorly.

The first is that Fiorentina's oppressive attack throughout the first half was seriously insufficient.

This led to a result: Atletico Madrid won but did not score.

It seems that they have obvious advantages in passing and controlling the ball, but in fact they lack a truly threatening offense.

Yang Hao had already raised this question during the halftime break.

"If we had been more aggressive in the first half, the game would have been over!"

But as a result, Atletico Madrid only had Iniesta assist Messi to score in the first half, leading 1-0.

The team continued to fight, and Yang Hao had to make rotations, which affected the players' condition to some extent.

But no way.

With the current intensity of La Liga matches, double matches a week without rotation will be too much for the players.

Even Messi has played consecutive games. Although he scored a goal in this game against Fiorentina, his overall performance was not good.

That's what happened to him in the last round against Valencia.

Of course, the so-called poor performance is only relative to Messi himself. He has also contributed consecutive goals now.

In the second half, that was even more true.

Fiorentina held on firmly and played very threateningly on several counterattacks.

Fortunately, Neuer performed bravely and made two wonderful saves.

After Suarez came on as a substitute, he received Adriano's assist and scored the second goal for Atletico Madrid. This made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, but it was already the 2th minute.

In the end, Atletico Madrid defeated Fiorentina 2-0 away from home.

Although both Yang Hao and Atletico Madrid were dissatisfied with this game, the outside world generally gave it high praise.

On the one hand, the midfield advantage is very obvious, the overall strength basically suppresses Florence, and the game process is very interesting.

Two goals, a gorgeous passing attack, these elements of Atletico Madrid were all played out.

More importantly, facing Florence's intensive defense, Atletico Madrid was able to score 2 goals, which is a strength in itself.

Fighting on multiple fronts and rotating every game, to be able to perform like this is outstanding enough!

……

December 10, the 3th round of La Liga.

Deportivo defeated Rayo Vallecano 1-0 away from home.

Barcelona narrowly defeated Almeria 1-0 at home.

Both games on the first day were dull, even a little lackluster.

The last round before the national team training, the fatigue after continuous battles were all reflected in this round of competition.

Atletico Madrid faces Zaragoza at home.

Due to poor performance in the Champions League before, Atletico Madrid players were scolded by Yang Hao after the game. They cheered up for this game, entered the state from the beginning, and continuously created opportunities.

Especially in the first 9 minutes, Iniesta dribbled the ball into the left side of the penalty area and was knocked to the ground by former Atletico Madrid midfielder Gabi. The referee refused to award a penalty kick.

Yang Hao was not angry, but looked at Gabi with mixed feelings in his heart.

In fact, he really likes Gabby.

During the years when Gabi was at Atletico Madrid, Yang Hao has always focused on cultivating him.

But sometimes, many things are really helpless.

In today's Atletico Madrid, it is difficult for players like Gabi to get opportunities.

When Zaragoza was relegated, Yang Hao called Gabi, but Gabi told Yang Hao that unless he returned to Atletico Madrid, otherwise, he would be willing to accompany Zaragoza to the Spanish Second Division and help Zaragoza Goza returns to La Liga.

And now, he's back.

Gabi is a loyal Atletico Madrid fan, but now, he has to wear the Zaragoza jersey, fight for Zaragoza on the court, and even fight with his former best teammate for a penalty kick. Iniesta argued in front of the referee.

Sometimes when I think about it, it’s really sad.

The strength of both sides is not at the same level at all.

Although the penalty was not awarded, Atletico quickly seized the opportunity.

Xavi Alonso quickly took a tactical corner kick. Messi sent a cross from the outside of the right side of the penalty area. Ramos hit the header with a header, opening the scoring for Atletico Madrid, 1-0!

Just 5 minutes later, Gabi fouled Iniesta at the edge of the penalty area, giving Atletico Madrid a chance to take a direct free kick. After Messi calmly took the penalty, he used a wonderful free kick to penetrate Kari. Suo's goal, 2-0!

In the 34th minute, when Messi was dribbling the ball in from the right, he suddenly sent a through ball. Torres succeeded in countering offside and scored with a single shot, expanding the score again, 3-0!

Before the end of the game, David Silva sent a through ball in the ribs. Torres pulled to the left side of the penalty area and then knocked across it. After Iniesta broke into the left side of the penalty area, he caught the ball and hit the goal, 4-0!

When Zaragoza refused to adopt conservative tactics, they were doomed.

After changing sides in the second half, Atletico Madrid continued to maintain their offensive.

In the 54th minute, Messi lifted a ball from the top area of ​​the penalty area that seemed to be passed and shot, and it fell towards the goal. It was blocked by goalkeeper Carriso with one hand. Torres followed up and hit the follow-up shot, 5-0!

Torres scored twice!

2 minutes later, Iniesta got rid of three defensive players on the left wing and sent a wonderful pass. David Silva broke into the left side of the penalty area and kicked the goal, extending the score to 3-6. 0!

Then the game completely entered Atletico Madrid's time.

In the 69th minute, after Messi stole the ball in the frontcourt, he quickly found Busquets, who came on as a substitute. The two completed a beautiful cooperation. After Busquets received the pass from Messi, he heeled back and Messi was at the penalty spot. A single shot was formed nearby and broke Zaragoza's goal, 7-0!

In the 80th minute, Iniesta sent a pass. Messi was still near the penalty spot. Facing the attacking goalkeeper, he made a light shot and scored again, 8-0!

Messi scored a hat trick!

Before the game was about to end, Gabi sent a pass, and Everton scored a single goal against offside.

8 is better than 1!

Atletico Madrid beat Zaragoza at home.

……

After the sixth round of La Liga, the duel between Messi and Ronaldo once again became the focus of media and fans in La Liga and even the world, and it was the main theme of the hype.

With Cristiano Ronaldo scoring twice, Real Madrid reversed Sevilla 3-2 in an away game and won 6 consecutive victories.

This is also the only team in Europe that has maintained a complete victory so far this season.

Atletico Madrid relied on Messi's hat trick to slaughter Zaragoza 8-1.

Both Madrid teams have shown strong momentum in this season's games.

Especially Ronaldo and Messi.

The name of the peerless twins has begun to ring out.

Especially the Spanish media, they all hope to use this title to further heat up the current La Liga.

Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid are both full of superstars, especially Atletico Madrid.

However, Messi stood out from the many superstars in the team, and Ronaldo defeated Ibrahimovic, Joaquin and other stars to become the current Real Madrid brother. These made everyone full of expectations for the duel between the two.

More importantly, both superstars showed super offensive power.

Messi has scored 6 goals in 10 league rounds in La Liga this season.

This kind of scoring efficiency is amazing.

The most outrageous thing is that Ronaldo didn't give in too much.

After the sixth round of La Liga, French Football Magazine also announced the list of 6 players for this year's Ballon d'Or.

Atletico Madrid has eight players selected, namely Messi, Kaká, Torres, Adriano, Iniesta, David Silva, Thiago Silva and Alves.

Among the 30 people, 8 players have entered, accounting for a quarter, which is enough to prove Atletico Madrid's influence in the current European football world, and the recognition of the Sheets by the media and fans.

Judging from the distribution of the list, 7 players were selected in the Premier League, 2 players from Inter Milan were selected in Serie A, no one was selected in the Bundesliga after Dzeko was signed by Valencia, and Benzema was selected in the French Ligue . After turning to Real Madrid, no one was shortlisted.

In other words, the Premier League and Serie A occupy a total of 9.

But La Liga has a full 21 people shortlisted for the 30-man Ballon d'Or.

In addition to players from Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​Valencia is also a major nominee for the Ballon d'Or. Getafe has nominated Diego Forlan, Deportivo has nominated Diego, and Espanyol has nominated Arshavin, Sevilla shortlisted Fabiano, Villarreal shortlisted Aguero...

The overall trend of La Liga is still very strong.

In addition to Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid, Barcelona and Valencia, many other teams also have leading stars.

As for this year's Golden Globe Awards, major media have also made speculations.

From the current point of view, Ronaldo is indeed the most popular.

Zidane previously said in an interview with Marca, "Cristiano Ronaldo will win the European Ballon d'Or. This is not only for him, but also for all Real Madrid awards."

As for Atletico Madrid’s Messi…

"Yes, there is no doubt that Messi is in very good condition. He set many new records last season, even to the point where all teams are scared. Sooner or later, he will win the Ballon d'Or, but Not this year.”

According to the analysis of La Gazzetta dello Sport, Atletico Madrid's failure to miss the Champions League is a key factor why Messi lags behind Cristiano Ronaldo in the race for the Ballon d'Or. After all, Cristiano Ronaldo's performance in La Liga is also quite outstanding.

……

After the 6th round of La Liga, we have two weeks of national team match days.

Since Spain has advanced to the World Cup finals, Yang Hao has recruited a large number of young players during these two weeks of training.

Including players like Javi Martinez, who have performed well this season, centers Llorente and Negredo, etc.

In terms of formation, Yang Hao also arranged rotations and substitute lineups.

In the end, Spain defeated Armenia 3-0 away from home.

Then they defeated Bosnia and Herzegovina 5-1 away from home.

There is actually nothing much to say about Spain. What Yang Hao really pays attention to is Argentina.

He is worried that Messi will be criticized by Argentine fans and the media again.

Maradona's team is still so unreliable, but at critical moments, Argentina's foundation still supports the lower limit of this team.

But after holding it, Yang Hao didn't know whether it was a good thing or a bad thing.

In two key games, Argentina first defeated Peru 2-1 at home.

Maradona miraculously arranged a 442 diamond midfield configuration in this game, allowing Aimar to serve as the attacking midfielder, and Messi and Higuain to partner as a double forward.

In the end, Higuain and substitute Palermo each scored a goal.

In the away game against Uruguay, Argentina also played lacklusterly, but in the end they still defeated Uruguay 1-0 with Boratti's goal.

Messi continued his poor performance in the national team, but because Argentina successfully turned the situation around and advanced to the World Cup finals, he did not receive too much criticism.

According to the news sent to Yang Hao by the Spanish Football Association, Argentina will go to Spain for training in November.

Maradona seemed to want to "communicate" face-to-face with Yang Hao, so the two sides arranged a friendly match.

Spain's other friendly opponent is Austria.

……

Two weeks after the national team match day, La Liga ushered in the 7th round.

Deportivo defeated Sevilla 1-0 at home.

Real Madrid defeated Valladolid 4-2 at home.

Valencia was held to a 0-0 draw at home by Mourinho's Barcelona.

Atletico Madrid defeated Osasuna 3-0 away from home on the second match day.

Torres has no competition duties in the national team and has adjusted well. He scored twice in this round.

Suarez scored after coming on as a substitute.

In the end, the Sheets defeated Osasuna with 3 goals away from home.

After 7 rounds of games, Real Madrid led the way with 21 points, followed by Atletico Madrid with 19 points.

……

January 10, Emirates Stadium, Madrid.

In the third round of the Champions League group stage, Atletico Madrid faced Lyon at home.

Not long after the game started, Atletico Madrid suffered a painful blow.

Kaka fell to the ground while fighting with the opponent's midfielder Tularang and was taken out of the field on a stretcher for treatment.

Although Kaká immediately returned to the game, in the 15th minute, the Brazilian finally couldn't hold on anymore and asked to be dismissed.

According to the diagnosis by the Atletico Madrid team doctor, it is initially estimated that it is a muscle strain caused by a collision with the opponent's body during the game.

There is really no way around this.

No matter how good and complete Atletico Madrid's medical system is, it is impossible to prevent players from having physical confrontations with each other during the game, and as long as there is physical confrontation, there is inevitably the risk of injury.

Yang Hao was speechless about this.

Modric, who was temporarily substituted, took Kaka's place, but Atletico Madrid's overall rhythm was disrupted.

It wasn't until the 45th minute that Evra made a cross from the left and Adriano scored with a header, finally breaking the deadlock for Atletico Madrid, 1-0!

After changing sides in the second half, Atletico Madrid launched a fierce attack on Lyon's left wing with Ali Sissoko's side as soon as the game started. Messi broke through and completed a cross, which was unguarded at the back post. Evra fired an angry shot that broke Lyon's goal and expanded the score to 2-0!

After that, the game entered a stalemate stage.

Lyon used defensive counterattacks to snipe Atletico Madrid, while the Shenlian Army was trapped by Messi being contained.

In the 72nd minute, Lyon first took advantage of a corner kick opportunity, causing Neuer to attack. After hitting the ball, Tulalang and Markuen hit the goal continuously, but Neuer saved the ball continuously. save.

But in the end it was the unguarded Glalons who scored with a header, scoring a goal for Lyon, 1-2!

But in the 85th minute, it was also a corner kick.

After Adriano's header passed, Thiago Silva headed the ball into the Lyon goal without being defended.

3 is better than 1!

In the end, Atletico Madrid relied on Adriano's pass and shot to defeat the visiting Lyon 3-1, winning the group's third consecutive victory and almost grabbing the top spot in the group with one hand.

For the Sheets, as long as they don't lose when they visit France against Lyon in two weeks, they will basically have topped the group.

At the post-match press conference after playing Lyon, many people were more concerned about Messi.

After returning from two national team games, Yang Hao arranged for Messi to rest in La Liga, but in Lyon, Messi's performance was not very good. Although there were a few outstanding performances, overall, he was lackluster.

Especially after Kaká was injured and went off the field, Messi, as the player with the highest expectations in the team, did not perform as expected.

In the words of the media, "Messi seems to have brought his malaise in Argentina to Atletico Madrid."

Yang Hao sneered at this.

He said there is no problem with Messi's strength.

"Talk to Messi? No, I don't think it's necessary. I don't have any worries about him."

"His only problem is that he has played too many games in a row. Whether it is physical or mental, he is in a very tired state. He needs a good rest."

This seems quite contradictory.

After all, Messi has already taken one league break after returning from the national team, and now he has to take another break?

why?

"He was not infected with the FIFA virus or other injuries. He was infected with a new type of Maradona virus. He was under too much pressure in the national team and returned home to play two games. It was like A layer of skin was peeled off.”

But Yang Hao said with great certainty, "All of us will help him tide over the difficulties!"
