Chapter 391 Reach the top of La Liga and advance to the finals! Our goal is to win three consecutive championships! [A big chapter with ten thousand words, please beg me to subscribe]

What should a mature politician look like?
Platini is a very true portrayal.

He has been praising Atletico Madrid and La Liga verbally, but he has been merciless in his actions.

After playing in the Champions League knockout round of 16, all four La Liga teams advanced to the top 8.

Then, the four La Liga teams were drawn together again by "coincidence" and fought against each other.

Last season, Atletico Madrid played Valencia, and Barcelona played Real Madrid.

This season Atletico Madrid will play Barcelona and Valencia will play Real Madrid.

Moreover, the four teams were drawn into a half zone by coincidence.

In other words, at most only one La Liga team can reach the final!
As La Liga becomes stronger and swallows up the best talents in European football, more and more stars gather in La Liga, which naturally leads to a decline in the competitiveness of other teams.

As a result, teams such as AC Milan and Inter Milan were eliminated in the top 16.

All four La Liga teams seemed to know the result, but none of the teams arranged for their bosses to watch the draw.

"But it's too obvious and not decent at all!"

As for the prediction of the Champions League prospects, Yang Hao said with confidence that he is full of confidence.

Three consecutive?
"why not?"

Bayern was drawn to Marseille in Ligue 1.

Moreover, the Sheets Legion has remained unbeaten in 28 games this season and is the only unbeaten team in European football so far.

After Atletico Madrid struggled to defeat Real Mallorca on the first match day, they put pressure on Real Madrid on the second match day.

But Atletico Madrid kept chasing them.

Is your luck really that bad?
After the results of the draw came out, Atletico Madrid's representative at the draw ceremony, Clemente Balavid, spoke loudly on the spot, mocking UEFA's draw as a trick because they wanted to eliminate La Liga teams.

Ever since Real Madrid counterattacked Valencia and Atletico Madrid to take the lead, this team has been on a roll.

"This is not impossible for us!"

In the home game against Malaga, Pellegrini adopted a forbearance tactic.

In the 28th round of La Liga, before Atletico Madrid played Real Mallorca away from home, Yang Hao smiled at a press conference and expressed that he was quite satisfied with the result of the draw.

Moreover, La Liga has drawn such a lottery for two consecutive seasons?

Manchester United were drawn against APOEL of Cyprus.

Over the weekend, the 28th round of La Liga.

The matchup between the upper and lower halves is really outrageous.

Throughout the game, Real Madrid, playing at home, suppressed Malaga. The Galacticos almost had an overwhelming advantage and frequently created opportunities.

"We will try our best to compete in the Champions League, and I am confident that we can lead our team to win the Champions League!"

"But I would say we're not going to give them what they want."

This is undoubtedly a silent counterattack against UEFA.

But the French forward squandered at least three must-goal opportunities in the first half.

Everyone can see that starting from this season, Messi has completely ushered in the golden period of his career.

So far, Messi has scored 28 goals in 45 rounds of La Liga, creating a career and the craziest scoring record in the history of the five major European leagues.

If there is no problem behind this, would anyone believe it?

But it wasn't until the 35th minute that Real Madrid scored a goal with an assist from Cristiano Ronaldo and Benzema.

"The whole world knows that our record at Atletico Madrid over the past decade or so has been overwhelming against Barcelona."

All aspects of wrestling and competition have put tremendous pressure on Real Madrid.

Yang Hao's shady remarks left no one in doubt that he was extremely dissatisfied with Gianni Infantino.

This is just a recommendation, okay?
When the results of the lottery came out, the whole world was in an uproar.

Robin van Persie has shown excellent form this season and has become Valencia's top scorer.

The other four teams that entered the quarterfinals had a very interesting matchup.

Messi even beats Cristiano Ronaldo in the top scorer list.

"I know a lot of people want to see us lose and want us to lose."

But unfortunately, he met Messi and Ronaldo who were scoring crazy goals.

Both Bayern and Manchester United were drawn as underdogs, while the four La Liga teams staged a strong dialogue.

……

With goals from Messi and Kaka, Atletico Madrid reversed Real Mallorca 2-1 and scored valuable 3 points in the away game.

"Actually, I am very grateful to Infantino because he helped us beat Barcelona!"

Valencia was away from home and defeated Athletic Bilbao 3-0 thanks to Robin van Persie's hat trick.

Judging from their performance this season, Atletico Madrid is better than Real Madrid in terms of the number of goals scored and the number of goals conceded.

Ronaldo failed to score twice when he had one-on-one opportunities.

Goalkeeper Diego Lopez once played for Real Madrid and was Casillas's substitute, but in this game, Diego Lopez showed a world-class goalkeeper performance at the Bernabeu Stadium, allowing the opposite Casillas to Eclipsed.

Especially in the 71st minute, he once again saved Benzema's single goal.

In the 75th minute, he blocked Ronaldo's direct free kick.

Two wonderful saves even earned him applause from the Bernabeu.

Real Madrid is paying the price for its continuous wasted opportunities.

Malaga showed great resilience.

Especially Aguero on the forward line, he is constantly looking for opportunities.

Until the 92nd minute, in the last minute of stoppage time, Aguero made a breakthrough with the ball after retreating to catch the ball, causing Chiellini's foul at the front of the penalty area and giving Malaga an excellent opportunity. .

Cazorla took a direct free kick and penetrated Casillas' goal.

1 is better than 1!

draw!

When Real Madrid finally couldn't stand it anymore and was tied with Malaga at the last minute, spitting out the 3 points they swallowed and turning it into 1 point. After Atletico Madrid narrowly defeated Real Mallorca, they reversed Real Madrid with a 1-point advantage and reached the top. La Liga standings.

This is the first time in 2012 that Atletico Madrid has topped the La Liga standings!

Yang Hao watched the live broadcast of the game. He was very happy and accepted an interview with Marca the next day.

In this interview, Yang Hao shouted very confidently, "We will maintain our advantage over Real Madrid in the remaining 10 rounds!"

But Yang Hao also wisely reminded everyone that having confidence is one thing, but the game still has to be played one by one.

"We will not let the fans down!"

……

Midweek, the 29th round of La Liga.

Atletico Madrid defeated Athletic Bilbao 3-1 thanks to Messi's two goals in the second half.

Javi Martinez scored a goal for Bielsa's team in the second minute of stoppage time.

After the game, Yang Hao also had a special conversation with Javi Martinez. He personally told the Basque player that he would be recruited into the national team.

Under Bielsa's transformation this season, Javi Martinez mainly played as a central defender and performed very well.

What everyone didn't expect was that Real Madrid's morale seemed to be affected after they were counterattacked by Atletico Madrid. In the subsequent away game against Villarreal, Ronaldo scored the first goal. .

But Villarreal's Biglia equalized the score for the Yellow Submarine in the 83rd minute with a shot from behind.

Arsene Wenger's side were level again.

1 is better than 1!

As a result, Atletico Madrid's lead expanded to 3 points!
This is definitely beyond everyone's expectation.

Wenger's team suffered another heavy defeat after relinquishing the lead.

But Wenger said in an interview with the media after the game that the battle for the league title is not over yet.

"I believe we still have a chance!"

……

Over the weekend, the 30th round of La Liga.

Real Madrid, who played one day earlier than Atletico Madrid, beat Real Sociedad 5-1 at home with a hat-trick from Cristiano Ronaldo.

Galacticos declared with a wonderful victory that they once again launched an impact on the La Liga championship.

Atletico Madrid's game is one day later than Real Madrid's, away to Zaragoza.

The home team was determined to avoid relegation and showed extremely tenacity.

You know, staying in La Liga is worth over 100 million euros, and all relegation teams will be crazy about it!

Zaragoza set up a formation like a steel barrel, and everyone tried their best.

Atletico Madrid is fighting continuously, their condition is not particularly ideal, and they are struggling.

Until the 95th minute, Messi used a direct free kick to penetrate Zaragoza's goal and scored valuable 3 points for Atletico Madrid!
The Argentinian once again showed his value at a critical moment.

By the way, in this round, Sevilla beat Granada by 3 goals in an away game.

This is the second consecutive game that Pochettino's team has won by 3 goals.

Sevilla's performance had ups and downs in the first half of this season and was not particularly stable. However, after entering the winter break, it has obviously gotten better and is now ranked 6th in La Liga. The overall performance is remarkable.

More importantly, Pochettino's coaching style this season is refreshing.

This head coach, who studied under Bielsa and Yang Hao, interprets Pochettino's own football philosophy and style in Sevilla.

Having been immersed in La Liga for many years, especially at Atletico Madrid, Pochettino's overall philosophy is similar to that of Yang Hao in his previous life, except that he pays more attention to technology and coordination of passing and cutting, and his offense is smoother and more detailed.

……

Three days later, Atletico Madrid visited Camp Nou to challenge Barcelona in the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals.

This was clearly not a night for Atletico Madrid.

Pepe came off injured in the first 12 minutes, and Yang Hao had to use Thiago Silva to step up.

But in the 26th minute, Ramos was also injured during a fight with Tevez.

Yang Hao was almost crying on the sidelines.

Two central defenders were injured in one night, who the hell are they going to answer?

There are no central defenders on the bench.

So, Yang Hao used Busquets to step up and partner Thiago Silva as a central defender.

In the 35th minute, while defending a corner kick, Bruno Alves hit the goal with a header, 1-0!

Atletico Madrid is really in a bit of a mess.

In the 37th, 39th and 42nd minutes, three consecutive yellow cards were received, namely Busquets, Thiago Silva and Modric.

Although they are all cards taken in the midfield and backcourt, they are more to plug the leaks in the front.

The players were impatient.

And in the 43rd minute, Modric's free kick caused by a foul card once again gave Barcelona a chance to attack. Xavi used a shot from the front of the penalty area to knock on Neuer's goal again.

2 is better than 0!

I have to say that Atletico Madrid is really unlucky!

Fortunately, during the halftime break, Yang Hao received a report from Parales. Both Ramos and Pepe had muscle strains. It was not a serious injury and they were expected to rest for two to three weeks.

March and April are the peak seasons for injuries. No one can avoid injuries like this in games.

It's just that Atletico Madrid was so unlucky that they injured two players in one game, and they were both central defenders.

Yang Hao now only has one substitution place left and dare not move at all.

Use it, if an injury occurs in the second half, there will only be one less person to play.

Therefore, the strategy given by Yang Hao is...

"We have to attack in the second half!"

"In the first 10 minutes, no matter what, you have to score a goal for me. Only in this way can we have a chance!"

After Yang Hao finished speaking, he clapped vigorously.

"I not only want La Liga, I also want the Champions League!"

"Fight this game for me, I must go to Munich!"

Yang Hao's impassioned remarks, coupled with his death order, completely ignited Atletico Madrid.

After the start of the second half, Atletico Madrid players showed unprecedented enthusiasm.

The opening wave of mad-dog-like pressing made Barcelona somewhat unable to parry, and when they were forced to retreat, a fatal flaw was exposed in the 51st minute.

Kaka sent a wonderful pass, and Messi cut in the right corner of the penalty area. After getting rid of Coentrao, he hit a curve ball with his left foot and hit the world with a kick that hit the left side of the goal.

Facing such a world wave, Buffon had no choice but to do anything.

1 is better than 2!

Subsequently, Atletico Madrid continued to attack.

Barcelona defended steadily, making it difficult for Atletico to score again.

After attacking for 10 minutes, Yang Hao decisively changed his tactics.

Busquets was dragged in the back line, coupled with Thiago Silva, Yang Hao signaled the team to adopt a pass-and-control style of play.

Both central defenders are players with outstanding passing ability, which ensures that Atletico Madrid's defense has a strong ability to pass the ball.

By passing and controlling the ball, he controlled the rhythm, slipped past Barcelona, ​​and patiently looked for opportunities.

More importantly, it saves the physical energy consumption of our own players.

After all, Yang Hao was forced to use two substitutions in less than half an hour in the first half.

Juande Ramos made continuous substitutions and adjustments in an attempt to reverse the situation.

But Atletico Madrid always adheres to Yang Hao's tactics.

This made the Barcelona fans in the stands very uncomfortable and even booed.

Passing and controlling the ball was originally Barcelona's style of play and label, but now, what they see is that Barcelona is hiding in their own half, while their most hated rival Atletico Madrid uses passing and controlling the ball. Slipping Barcelona.

How does this make them feel embarrassed?

Juande Ramos used three substitutions as early as the 74th minute in an attempt to change the situation on the field.

But Yang Hao was different, he never moved.

After 80 minutes, he still didn't move.

Both parties are very active and hard-working, and both are looking for opportunities.

It wasn't until the 84th minute that Yang Hao used the last substitution.

Suarez replaces Adriano.

When the Uruguayan forward came on the field, Yang Hao held his neck and told him, "You have only one task after you come up."

"That's a goal!"

"Send the ball into Buffon's goal!"

After Suarez came on the field, Atletico Madrid once again launched a crazy counterattack.

The physical energy and energy accumulated in front of him completely exploded at this moment.

Atletico Madrid is once again suppressing Barcelona.

Juande Ramos has never led a team to encounter a super strong team like Atletico Madrid in a knockout round of the Champions League, which makes him lack experience and underestimate the intensity of the game.

Especially the amazing strength of a team like Atletico Madrid that broke out at the last minute.

It really completely suppressed Barcelona and beat them wildly in the half court.

The competition has completely heated up.

It was tense every second, and everyone's hearts were lifted.

And in the second minute of stoppage time, Marcelo stepped in from the left, received a pass from David Silva, sent a direct pass from the ribs, and sent the ball to the left side of the penalty area. .

Like a ghost, Suarez suddenly appeared behind Bruno Alves. After stopping the ball, he shot low with his left foot, breaking through Barcelona's goal and equalizing the score!
2 is better than 2!

The entire Camp Nou stadium was booed!
Nearly 10 fans were madly cursing Atletico Madrid.

How many years has it been!

Barcelona has never been able to win Atletico Madrid and fail to overwhelm this team in terms of results.

Especially like tonight, when they were leading by 2 goals, they were evened by their opponents, allowing them to retreat. How can Barcelona fans accept this?
2 away goals made the next round of the game at the Emirates Stadium in Madrid even more difficult.

……

Over the weekend, La Liga ushered in the 31st round of matches.

On the first match day, Real Madrid beat Osasuna 5-1 away from home, with Ronaldo and Higuain both scoring twice.

Atletico Madrid defeated Getafe 3-1 at home on the second match day with Messi's pass and shot.

Pochettino's Sevilla won again with 3 goals in this round, defeating Real Mallorca at home.

After winning 3 consecutive rounds with 3 goals, Pochettino became famous!

……

3 days later, Madrid’s Emirates Stadium.

In the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, Atletico Madrid will face Barcelona at home.

Juande Ramos' team was held to a 2-2 draw by Atletico Madrid at home, but they adopted a more prudent defense on the road.

And Atletico Madrid's opening was no longer aggressive.

Yang Hao and Guardiola originally thought that Juande Ramos would adopt a more aggressive tactical play at the start, but they did not expect that he would choose to be conservative.

Both sides played very cautiously in the first half.

Barcelona focused on defensive counterattacks and did not leave many opportunities for Atletico Madrid.

But just before the end of the first half, Atletico Madrid suddenly launched a wave of attacks.

In the second minute of stoppage time in the first half, Adriano received Messi's pass, squeezed Puyol away with his body in the penalty area, and volleyed with his right foot, breaking Buffon's goal.

1 is better than 0!

After changing sides in the second half, Barcelona had no choice but to take the initiative and try to equalize the score.

With the current score between the two sides, Barcelona needs to score at least 2 goals, leaving little time for Juande Ramos.

Under this situation and pressure, Atletico Madrid's passing and controlling style of play just restrained Barcelona. One side is anxious, the other side is as stable as a rock.

Under this situation, the results can be imagined.

Atletico Madrid made a quick counterattack in the 66th minute. Messi received Kaka's through ball, stopped the ball in the penalty area and dunked past veteran Puyol, then pushed the ball with his left foot and scored, 2-0!

This goal also completely ruined Barcelona's hopes.

Although Juande Ramos made continuous substitutions and tried to reverse the situation, he failed in the end.

Atletico Madrid relied on Messi's pass and shot to defeat Barcelona 2-0 at home, with a total score of 4-2, eliminating Barcelona.

In another matchup, Real Madrid drew 1-1 with Valencia at home and then played another 1-1 away game, and the two sides entered overtime.

In the end, it was Robin van Persie who scored the winning goal for Valencia in the 118th minute with a wonderful diving shot.

3-2, Valencia successfully advanced to the semi-finals and met Atletico Madrid.

In the other half, Manchester United and Bayern successfully met in the semi-finals.

Since this season's Champions League final is held at Bayern's Emirates Stadium, the Bundesliga champions are determined to win this championship.

……

Over the weekend, the 32th round of La Liga.

This is destined to be the most entertaining round of the season.

In the first game, the wealthy team Getafe defeated Deportivo La Coruna 4-2 at home.

Subsequently, Rayo Vallecano defeated Osasuna 6-0 at home.

That night, the Spaniard defeated Real Sociedad 4-2.

Barcelona defeated Zaragoza 4-1 away from home.

In the four games on the first match day, a total of 4 goals were scored.

Just like crazy.

When the whole world was talking about La Liga's crazy offensive, in the first match on the second match day, Atletico Madrid beat Levante 5-0 on the road with Torres' hat trick.

Real Madrid defeated Valencia 4-3 at home, avenging their elimination from the Champions League.

Even Malaga defeated Racing Santander 3-0 at home.

Only Seville.

Pochettino's team has been unstoppable in the past few rounds, but this round facing their teacher Bielsa, Pochettino's team failed to continue their previous crazy goal scoring, but lost to Bilbao 0-1 away from home. Esports.

Llorente scored the only goal of the game.

……

After the 32nd round, La Liga once again ushered in a double match week.

Yang Hao was so busy that he was carefully preparing for the next Madrid derby with the coaching staff every day.

Three days later, the 3th round of La Liga.

Barcelona defeated Getafe 2-0 at home.

Valencia defeated Rayo Vallecano 4-1 at home.

Sevilla once again defeated Zaragoza 3-0 at home.

In this round, Atletico Madrid faces Real Madrid at home.

Although Ramos and Pepe have resumed training, Yang Hao still dared not be careless and did not arrange for them to start in this Madrid derby. Instead, he asked Van Dijk, who has performed well in recent games, to partner Thiago. ·Silva.

During the absence of two central defenders due to injuries, Van Dijk's partnership with Thiago Silva played well.

But this is the Dutch centre-back's first Madrid derby.

In the 24th minute of the first half, Ronaldo broke through Atletico Madrid's goal and opened the scoring for Real Madrid.

But in the 35th minute, Atletico Madrid equalized the score with Messi, 1-1!

After changing sides in the second half, Atletico Madrid launched a fierce attack. In the 55th minute, Torres scored the second goal to reverse the score.

But in the 67th minute, Ronaldo's goal equalized the score again, 2-2!

In the 74th minute, Kaka's header after breaking into the penalty area exceeded the score again, 3 to 2!

But in the 78th minute, Navas, who came on as a substitute, equalized the score for Real Madrid, 3-3!

In the 82nd minute, Atletico Madrid surpassed the score again with Di Maria, who also came on as a substitute, 4 to 3!

But just when everyone felt that Atletico Madrid should win this victory, in the first minute of stoppage time, Pastore broke through with the ball and sent the ball into the penalty area. When Van Dijk was defending Ronaldo, The Portuguese fell to the ground.

The referee imposed the death penalty, a red card and a penalty kick!
Yang Hao protested, believing that the penalty was unfair and that Van Dyke did not foul.

But the referee insisted on his judgment and believed that Van Dijk had an obvious action on his hands.

In the end, Ronaldo hit the penalty kick and performed a hat trick, helping Real Madrid draw 4-4 with Atletico Madrid.

This season's Madrid derby has shown a crazy momentum of attack.

This certainly made the game very exciting, and fans all over the world enjoyed watching it. They believed that the frequent offensive battles between the two teams were benefiting fans around the world.

But the first confrontation between the two sides was 4-3, and this time it was 4-4.

In two Madrid derbies, a total of 15 goals were scored, which is crazy.

In this round of competition, Real Madrid failed to defeat Atletico Madrid in the away game. The two sides shook hands and made a draw. In fact, Atletico Madrid won.

Because after this round of games, Atletico Madrid still leads La Liga with a 3-point advantage.

……

Over the weekend, the 34th round of La Liga.

Real Madrid was at the Bernabeu and after conceding a goal first, they reversed Deportivo La Coruña 3-1 at home.

By the way, Deschamps' team has not performed well this season and he has decided to leave Deportivo La Coruna after the end of the season.

In the past few years of coaching Super Deportivo, Deschamps has witnessed Deportivo's brief recovery.

Although it failed to achieve the style of Super Depor sweeping Europa during Irueta's coaching period at the beginning of the century, the overall performance was remarkable and won recognition from European football.

According to French media reports, Deportivo La Coruna hopes to keep Deschamps, but the French have already made up their mind.

It is reported that his next stop will be the French national team.

This also gives Deschamps every reason to leave Deportivo.

Barcelona defeated Levante 2-1 away from home.

Valencia, who were about to meet Atletico Madrid in the Champions League semi-finals, unexpectedly lost to the Espanyol 0-2 on the road in this round.

It can be seen from the starting lineup of this game that the consecutive double matches in a week had an impact on Ancelotti's formation, so the Italian rotated in this game.

As a result, the Bat Legion unexpectedly lost to the Spaniards.

But this has no impact on Valencia, because after losing this game, they are still third in La Liga.

But after the rotation, the starting lineup can be in better condition to face Atletico Madrid at home.

The Sheets Army also made rotations this round, but still relied on Torres's two goals to defeat Rayo Vallecano 2-0 away from home.

What makes Yang Hao most happy about this game is the return of Ramos and Pepe from injury.

After returning from injury, the two teamed up and kept a clean sheet against Rayo Vallecano.

Falcao contributed nothing throughout the game.

Getafe defeated Sevilla 5-2 at home, and Pochettino's team suffered a disastrous defeat.

In the final analysis, strength still speaks.

……

On the evening of April 4, Valencia’s Etihad Stadium.

In the first leg of the Champions League semi-finals, Atletico Madrid challenged Valencia away.

Ancelotti arranged a very interesting tactical play for this game.

Before this game, Sneijder was injured in the league, causing many people to speculate that it would not be easy for Valencia to win Atletico Madrid at home, but Ancelotti made decisive changes.

A 442 formation was adopted.

Needless to say, the forward line is a double forward combination of Villa and Robin van Persie.

Midfielder from left to right: Juan Mata, De Rossi, Aquilani and Nani.

Sneijder's injury seems to have greatly affected Valencia's strength, but with Ancelotti's formation, it is not a bad thing.

He arranged four central midfielders to line up almost in a row, compressing the space in the midfield.

Especially for Messi.

Whenever an Argentinian player gets the ball on the right, Juan Mata will follow him immediately.

Once Messi cuts inside, to the ribs or in the middle, there will be players who will coordinate with Juan Mata in time to double-team.

Ancelotti's intention is very obvious, which is to confine Messi and prevent Messi from breaking forward or passing the ball to his teammates.

On the back line, Kolarov, who has better defensive abilities, is used on the left.

By the way, Antonio Lopez's condition has declined significantly this season.

Speaking of which, the Spanish international is already 30 years old. He has reached the peak of his career in Atletico Madrid and Valencia, and has performed well in the national team.

As he became more successful and more injured, his condition also suffered an irreversible decline.

This season's main position is threatened by Kolarov and Alba.

Compared to Alba, who has more offensive power, Ancelotti arranged for Kolarov to start in this game.

Not only on the left, but on the right, he also gave up the more offensive Rafinha and chose Miguel, who has a better defense. In the center, he partnered with veteran Lucio and Raul Albiol. .

It can be seen from the formation that Ancelotti's intention in this game is still based on defense.

This is because Valencia's defense is indeed relatively poor this season.

If they still press out to attack Atletico Madrid, the Bat Legion will probably lose completely.

Ancelotti's pragmatic tactical style has indeed caused Atletico Madrid a lot of trouble.

Yang Hao's team continued to attack from the beginning and constantly created opportunities.

This included in the 6th minute, David Silva sent a through ball from the left rib. Suarez quickly moved forward. When he fell to the ground and took a shot, the football hit the left post and bounced out. .

This offense missed a great opportunity.

Valencia continued to defend.

Ancelotti proved to everyone that when an Italian head coach adopts defensive counterattack tactics, no team, even as strong as Atletico Madrid, can easily knock on Valencia's goal.

Especially when the goalkeeper of the Bat Army is Cech.

In the 24th minute, Valencia launched a quick counterattack.

Nani went straight behind Marcelo, received Aquilani's pass, successfully countered offside, broke into the right side of the penalty area, and passed the low ball into the penalty area.

Van Persie took the ball away before Thiago Silva, and then passed it to the back post.

Villa headed the ball from close range, but Neuer flew to the rescue and saved the ball with one hand.

These were also the two most threatening attacks in the entire first half.

Atletico Madrid and Valencia once each.

Although the Sheets Army completely dominated the game, they were never able to create any chances.

The two sides went back and forth, and although they continued to create opportunities, they were never able to score.

In the second half, especially after 70 minutes, both teams began to make substitutions and adjustments.

Ancelotti took the lead in making substitutions, first replacing Villa with Anderson, and the formation returned to 4231, continuing to strengthen the attack, and then replaced Alba and Lucas Leiva in succession.

Among them, Lucas Leiva replaced Aquilani, with the purpose of strengthening the interception and coverage of the double midfielder in the midfield.

When Ancelotti used up three substitutions early, Valencia got a chance that was not a chance in the 3th minute.

The cooperation between Juan Mata and Alba on the left caused Alves to foul during defense, winning Valencia a free kick opportunity on the left side of the front court.

During the melee in the penalty area, Lucio's header hit the goal and bounced off the crossbar.

At the critical moment, Van Persie took the ball and sent it into Neuer's goal.

Although the slow motion showed that Van Persie was in an offside position, the referee still ruled that the goal was valid.

This is a complete misjudgment!

One minute after losing the ball, Yang Hao made substitution adjustments.

He replaced David Silva with Eden Hazard and Kaká with Isco.

Two substitutions were made in one go, showing Yang Hao's determination.

More importantly, after the substitution, Atletico Madrid almost caught Valencia playing on the right.

Miguel got a yellow card in the second half, and veteran Lucio was on this side, so Yang Hao obviously wanted to strengthen his attack on Valencia's right side.

Lucio and Albiol's turning speeds are both slow, and Yang Hao wants to take advantage of this.

This was actually his trump card in this game, and he originally planned to save it for the final stage.

Yang Hao's substitution had an immediate effect.

Especially Hazard was very active on the left, dribbling the ball continuously, putting great pressure on Miguel, who had already received a yellow card. However, Ancelotti had already used up three substitutions, which could only be a bitter experience. Suffering to maintain.

Iniesta and Isco also moved to the left and center.

Plus Marcelo inserted in the back row.

Atletico Madrid often form an attacking combination of Marcelo, Hazard, Iniesta and Isco on the left.

Suarez also moved closer here frequently, not to mention Messi. Yang Hao gave him absolute freedom.

The last 10 minutes of the game completely turned into a siege battle between Atletico Madrid and Valencia.

The Bat Corps was on tight defense, while Atletico Madrid was on the offensive, constantly launching offensives, and the players continued to dribble and break through.

Among them, Isco was tripped to the ground by Albiol after dribbling the ball into the penalty area in the 86th minute.

Unfortunately, the referee did not blow the whistle.

Atletico players protested, believing it should have been a penalty.

Time is passing, but Atletico Madrid's attack continues.

Being behind 0-1 made everyone in the Sheets team firmly believe that there was still a chance in the game.

Especially as the game progresses, the physical exertion of Valencia players will increase.

In the 94th minute, the last attack of the game came.

Atletico Madrid pressed everyone on the left and launched a fierce attack.

But he failed to create an opportunity and was forced to pass the ball back to the 30-meter area to Xavi Alonso who was supporting him.

At the critical moment, Xavi Alonso sent a through ball, tearing open Valencia's defense and reaching the area behind Albiol.

Messi quickly stepped in and didn't even stop Xabi Alonso's pass. After catching up with the ball, he shot straight and fired a volley with his right foot.

The ball went into Valencia's goal very quickly, 1-1!

draw!

"At the critical moment, Messi scored Valencia's goal with a crisp volley in the 4th minute of stoppage time!"

"1 to 1!"

"Atletico Madrid got a valuable away goal!"

The game ended the moment Messi scored.

The Argentinian was so excited that he rushed out of the stadium and rushed to the sidelines to celebrate.

1 to 1, Atletico Madrid still has a chance to return to home court!

……

They struggled against Valencia in the middle of the week and ushered in the 35th round of La Liga at the weekend.

The highlight of this round was Real Madrid's visit to Camp Nou, where they defeated Barcelona 2-1 thanks to goals from Cristiano Ronaldo and Pirlo.

Atletico Madrid defeated Espanyol 3-1 at home thanks to Di Maria's brace.

Valencia defeated Real Betis 4-0 at home.

Both teams in the Champions League semi-finals won at home in the league.

This also makes the suspense of the La Liga championship continue to be pushed back.

……

Three days later, the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals.

Atletico Madrid faces Valencia at home.

If the first round of the match between the two sides was Atletico Madrid's offensive battle against Valencia, then in the second round at the Emirates Stadium, Ancelotti came up with a very surprising confrontation tactic, which was very surprising. Dare to bring down Atletico Madrid] momentum.

In the opening stage, Valencia's courage to play against Atletico Madrid in the away game did create a very big problem for Atletico Madrid.

Especially in the opening stage, Ancelotti's deployment disrupted Atletico Madrid's rhythm.

Yang Hao made adjustments for the first round match between the two sides. Messi served more as the team's passer, using his running and connection to connect the team's offense, rather than being the main attacker in the past.

The advantage of this is that the cage set up by Valencia against Messi has become completely useless.

When Atletico Madrid gradually stabilized its position and Messi began to exert his strength, Ancelotti's team suffered a blow.

In the 36th minute, after Messi dropped back to receive the ball in the middle, he dribbled the ball forward and sent a direct pass to Suarez's feet.

After the Uruguayan blocked Albiol with his body in the penalty area, he stopped the ball and turned back to Kaka who was inserted in the back row.

The Brazilian fired a furious shot past Valencia's goal.

In the first half, Atletico Madrid entered the halftime break with a 1-goal lead.

After changing sides and fighting again in the second half, Yang Hao seized on Valencia's weakness, took the initiative to withdraw, and used his advantage in passing and possession to control the ball and rhythm, forcing Valencia to take the initiative.

As a result, in the 79th minute, Valencia made a mistake in a pass near the center line, and Atletico intercepted the ball to instigate a counterattack.

Once again, Suarez took the ball in the frontcourt and passed it to Hazard on the left.

The Belgian dribbled the ball into the left side of the penalty area and hit the goal, but was saved by goalkeeper Cech.

The ball fell to the unguarded right side.

Messi sprinted all the way and sent the ball saved by Cech into the Valencia goal without anyone defending him.

2 is better than 0!

After the goal, the Argentinian opened his arms excitedly, rushed out of the Emirates Stadium and celebrated wildly amid cheers from the sky.

In the end, Atletico Madrid defeated Valencia 2-0 with goals from Messi and Kaká, and successfully advanced to the Champions League final with a total score of 3-1.
