The performances of the two giants in La Liga were mediocre in the first two rounds. Real Madrid had one win and one draw, and Barcelona had one win and one loss. However, Atletico Madrid performed very well, winning two consecutive victories, and achieved a [-]-[-] rout in the first round.

People's attitude towards Atletico Madrid has changed, and the three major European gambling companies have also adjusted the odds of Atletico Madrid's championship from 1:5.75 to 1:4.50.

Ranked first is of course Barcelona, ​​which has won two consecutive championships. Their winning odds are 1:2.11, and Real Madrid's winning odds are 1:2.79.

After the second round, people will focus on the third round. The focus of this round is of course Atletico Madrid vs. Barcelona!
The media expressed their opinions one after another. The media in the Madrid area believed that Atletico Madrid had a higher chance of winning at home. The Marca newspaper said: "Through the two games, we have already been able to understand Simeone's tactics. He performed the high-position press to the extreme.

Barcelona is another style, which develops pass control to the extreme.The collision between the two teams is the collision of two extreme styles of play. This is a very interesting game.

The European Super Cup in 09 let us see the hope of Atletico Madrid defeating Barcelona. As long as Atletico Madrid can interrupt Barcelona's smooth rhythm and seize a few opportunities to counterattack in the frontcourt, the balance of victory will be tilted to their side!

Come on, Atletico Madrid! "

Aspen said: "Wang, this is your first meeting with Messi in La Liga, and this game is your home game, don't you want to end this game with a victory?

come on!king! "

Barcelona's mouthpiece Mundo Deportivo encouraged Barcelona: "A loss is nothing to be afraid of. There is no undefeated player on the football field. The most important task for Barcelona now is to beat Atletico Madrid on the weekend.

Atletico Madrid has won two consecutive victories and their morale is booming. Barcelona can't underestimate them, they must take them as seriously as they treat Real Madrid, and challenge them away!
In this way, Barcelona can re-enter the ranks of winning. "

The battle between the media has already started before the game has even started.More media began to discuss whether Wang Rui is better or Messi is better. Of course, the British media is on Wang Rui's side, while the Catalan and Argentine media are on Messi's side.

On the morning of the [-]th, after Atletico Madrid's training session, Wang Rui was surrounded by the media. A reporter spoke out about the controversy in the media and asked him his opinion on the discussion.

"Who is better? In fact, everything is understood after the game. This kind of discussion is not very meaningful."

The reporters looked at each other in blank dismay. No matter how you read it, it sounded like a mockery of the media...

The British media didn't think so, they thought Wang Rui was very confident.

Obviously, the collision between Atletico Madrid and Barcelona has attracted the attention of fans and media from all over the world. As the game time approaches, media from all over the world have come to Madrid City!
This makes Atletico fans extremely proud. In the past, only the Spanish derby between Real Madrid and Barcelona attracted so much media attention.

The hearts of Real Madrid fans are sour, which invisibly adds pressure to Real Madrid.

At nine o'clock in the evening on the [-]th, at the Anoeta Stadium, the match between Real Madrid and the Espanyol, which was under tremendous pressure, started. Real Madrid relied on their own strength to turn away from the opponent and launched a mad attack on the opponent.

With his tenacity, the Spaniard withstood Real Madrid's mad attack and ended the first half with a score of zero to zero.Not long after the second half started, Di Maria, who had just joined Real Madrid this season, broke the deadlock.

In the 6th minute of the second half, German midfielder Özil passed the ball. Di Maria broke into the penalty area 18 meters to the left and kicked a right footed arc ball. The football drew a wonderful arc in the air and flew into the net from the upper right corner of the goal. !
One to zero!

This ball inspired Real Madrid's greater offensive enthusiasm. They launched a more violent attack on the Spaniard, and the Spaniard responded calmly.

In the No.17 minute of the second half, the Spaniard got a free kick in the frontcourt. Griezmann kicked the football backwards.
One to one!

The tenacious Spaniard equalized the score!

Real Madrid's offense is becoming more and more fierce. They don't want to get two consecutive away games in the new season. No. 209 minutes in the second half, Real Madrid got a free kick in the frontcourt.

Cristiano Ronaldo took the penalty himself, the ball hit Pepe who bowed his head in the crowd, changed direction and bounced into the far corner!

It was the Portuguese star's first goal in La Liga this season.

Relying on Ronaldo's goal, Real Madrid withstood the huge pressure and beat the Espanyol with a score of [-] to [-]. They won their first away game this season and also won two consecutive victories.

After the game, Ronaldo said in an interview in the mixed interview area: "We are on the right track, we have regained confidence under the leadership of Mourinho.

We are still the strongest contenders for the La Liga title! "

Some people think that the Portuguese is challenging Wang Rui and Messi, while others think that the Portuguese is jealous that the match between Barcelona and Real Madrid has attracted so much media attention.

……

On the [-]th, the atmosphere of war enveloped the city of Madrid.

If you put it in the past few seasons, there will never be such tension.

Because if this game is won, Atletico Madrid will take a solid step in the La Liga championship battle!
Because Atletico Madrid's goal this season is the La Liga champion!

To win the La Liga championship, Barcelona and Real Madrid are two hurdles that must be passed.

The greater the hope, the greater the pressure and the more nervous.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Barcelona's special plane landed at Madrid International Airport. When they walked out of the passage, they were surrounded by reporters. Guardiola said with a serious expression: "The last home defeat brought us a lot of pressure. The strength that Jing showed in the first two rounds was surprising.

For us tonight, it must be a difficult game, we are ready to fight Atletico Madrid for 10 and [-] minutes.

I hope we can walk away with a win at the Calderon! "

Speaking of Wang Rui's defense, Guardiola said: "Wang is the focus of our defense. There is no doubt about it. Whether it is the Premier League last season or the first two rounds of this season, it has proved that he is the key to our defense. important role for the team.”

I don't know whether it was unintentional or intentional, the Barcelona coach forgot about the World Cup in South Africa.

At this moment, Messi encountered a problem. A British media challenged him: "What kind of player is Wang in your mind?"

This is La Liga, the place where Messi became famous. La Liga is the home field for Messi, and Wang Rui is more like an outsider.

The Argentine frowned. It was a difficult question to answer.

"It doesn't matter what I think. I think everyone already has their own opinions. For me, he is a very strong opponent."

Messi didn't want to say more, and wanted to leave the media after saying this, but the media didn't want him to leave so soon.

While protecting Messi, Pique said to the media: "This is La Liga, not the Premier League, nor the World Cup, Wang will be completely frozen by us tonight!
That scene in the World Cup final will not be repeated, and I am here for revenge tonight! "
