Dominate the midfield

Chapter 765 Chapter 764: A miraculous tie!
The strength of Barcelona made the Atletico Madrid players deeply feel the huge pressure. Only then did they understand that it is extremely difficult to compete for the La Liga championship from the two giants of La Liga.

Real Madrid's subsequent appearance at home beat Mallorca [-]-[-], continuing to put pressure on Barcelona and Atletico Madrid.

The battle for the La Liga championship has entered a critical stage.

Atletico Madrid's opponent in this round is Sporting Gijon. In the first round of the match between the two sides, Atletico Madrid washed their opponents [-]-[-] at home.

Before the start of the game, the local media encouraged their team: Tonight's game has nothing to do with the championship or the European qualification, but tonight's game is about glory.

For Sporting Gijon, tonight is a humiliating game. A zero-to-seven first round is a tragedy. Tonight we will defeat Atletico Madrid at our home court and win back our glory.

Come on!

Sporting Gijon, you are the terminator of Atletico Madrid's winning streak!
At [-] o'clock in the evening, the game started on time. Amid the huge shouts of the home fans, Sporting Gijon launched a fierce attack on Atletico Madrid.

Atletico Madrid thought it would be an easy game tonight, who knew it would be so difficult.In the 5th minute, Sporting Gijon used a corner kick to break through Atletico Madrid's goal, gaining a one-to-zero lead and taking this advantage to the second half.

When Wang Rui was strictly defended by the opponent, other Atletico Madrid midfielders did not share the burden with him, and Atletico Madrid's offense was lackluster.

The offense was good, and the defense had problems again in the 7th minute of the second half. Cuevas passed the ball from the right side of the penalty area, and the football flew into the penalty area. Balal, who was ambushing in the middle, succeeded in grabbing a point without anyone pressing!
Two to zero!
The home fans cheered hugely, they saw the hope of defeating Atletico Madrid!
Simeone, who was standing in the command area, smashed the mineral water bottle on the turf angrily. The bench behind him was dead silent. They hadn't been behind by two goals for a long time.

On the sidelines, the journalists in the Catalonia area were elated, while the reporters in the Madrid area looked dignified. If Atletico Madrid loses this game, the difference between Barcelona and Atletico Madrid will be reduced to five points. With a home victory over Atletico Madrid, the two sides are only two points away!
Atletico Madrid won [-] consecutive victories in the first half of the season, and the advantages they established quickly disappeared...

They turned their attention to Wang Rui.

Wang Rui looked at Balal who was running excitedly on the turf with a calm face, but his heart was a different scene.

It has been a long time since he encountered the unfavorable situation of being behind by two goals, which made him seem to be back in the Premier League and the World Cup. The fighting factor in his blood seemed to be suddenly activated!

In the No.19 minute of the second half, he took the ball near the center circle and made a forced breakthrough. Under the dazzling rapid change of speed and direction, he broke out from the double-team of the opponent's three players!

The hearts of the Sporting Gijon fans tightened immediately, and their faces turned pale. No. 1 in the world is indeed No. 1 in the world. This is simply unstoppable...

Wang Rui took the football to the opponent's penalty area, Cuevas saw that the situation was wrong, and directly brought him down.

"Tick!..."

The referee awarded Atletico Madrid a direct free kick in an excellent position and drew a yellow card for Cuevas.

Wang Rui stood up from the turf, took a few steps back, exhaled a long breath, and after the opponent lined up the wall, he slowly ran towards the football.

The home fans became extremely nervous. Wang Rui's free kick had already become famous all over the world in the World Cup in South Africa.

"Snapped!……"

The football flew up from the turf, flew over the wall, and flew towards the upper right corner of the goal!
The goalkeeper of Sporting Gijon rose from the ground and flew towards the football. The timid home fans covered their eyes, unable to bear to see their goal being scored...

The football flies past the goalkeeper's fingertips!
"Pong!..."

With a loud bang, the football hit the crossbar and flew out of the baseline...

"boom!……"

There was a loud exclamation from the stadium, followed by thunderous applause. I don't know if the applause was for Wang Rui, or just rejoicing that his team had escaped.

Catalan journalists and local reporters were covered in cold sweat, damn it, this man really has the ability to score goals at any time!

Missing the perfect opportunity to score, Wang Rui couldn't help but shook his head, Simeone in the command area closed his eyes, he had a bad premonition.

Three minutes later, this premonition became a reality, Cuevas shot in front of the penalty area, and the football flew into the net from the lower right corner!

Three to zero!
The home fans shouted excitedly: "Four to zero! Four to zero!"

They still remember the [-]-[-] fiasco in the first round. They saw the opportunity to bloodbath Atletico Madrid, and saw the opportunity to avenge their shame!

The Catalan reporters shouted excitedly, but the Madrid area did not shake their heads and sigh. Three goals behind, it will be a failure to welcome Atletico Madrid.

I thought that Atletico Madrid could continue to make great strides, but who would have thought that Atletico Madrid, which had won [-] consecutive victories, suffered a defeat just at the beginning of the second half of the season, and it was a complete defeat?
After the game restarted, Sporting Gijon, which led by three goals, did not retreat across the board, but continued to attack Atletico Madrid. They wanted a big victory.

Atletico Madrid's defense, whose morale has fallen to the bottom, is precarious and may be broken by the opponent at any time. Simeone can only use a huge shout to remind his players.

In the 207th minute of the second half, Atletico Madrid launched an attack from the right. Diego Costa crossed the football to Wang Rui.

After Wang Rui took the ball, 30 meters away from the goal, he pulled up his right foot and took a long shot!
The football flew towards the upper right corner of the goal like a cannonball!
A white light shines, and the football goes into the net!
The ball is in!
One to three!

Atletico Madrid narrowed the point difference!
A reporter from the Madrid area shouted: "There is no free kick, Wang still has a long shot!"

A reporter from the Catalan region sneered: "This is just a consolation goal. With more than ten minutes left in the game, Atletico Madrid is still two goals behind. Can they catch up?"

A British reporter said unconvinced: "In the quarter-finals of the World Cup in South Africa, Wang scored two goals in two minutes in stoppage time, reversing the score."

What he meant was that with more than ten minutes left, Wang Rui was fully capable of scoring two goals to help Atletico equalize the score.

A local reporter said sarcastically: "I don't know how many years that kind of situation happens. Do you think Wang is a god, and he can score goals if he wants to?"

Wang Rui on the field didn't know that the reporters were arguing. He picked up the football from the net and ran towards the middle circle. A fire was burning in his heart, a raging fire to equalize or even reverse the game.

After the game restarted, Sporting Gijon continued to attack Atletico Madrid without any new instructions from the coach, and they had a lot of space in the backcourt.

In the 305th minute of the second half, Ballal shot a strong shot from the penalty area. De Gea held the football firmly in his arms, and then launched a quick counterattack with a long throw.

Simao, who was standing near the middle circle, made a header and pushed the football towards Wang Rui. Wang Rui took the football off with a gun, and then started the breakthrough mode!

After breaking through the opponent's two players in a row, Wang Rui suddenly made a diagonal pass, and Fran rushed to the opponent's penalty area with the football!

One-handed!

The Uruguayan striker calmly shot low from the left side of the penalty area, and the football flew into the net from the near corner!

Two to three!
Atletico Madrid are only one goal away from the equalizer!
The air in the stadium became tense, and the home fans murmured: "Impossible, absolutely impossible, Atletico Madrid will never equalize the score! You must know that we lead by three goals!"

This ball completely inspired Atletico Madrid's fighting spirit. After the game restarted, they were like a group of wolves that had been hungry for a long time, rushing desperately towards their prey.

Sporting Gijon speeded up the passing rhythm and quickly moved the football to the frontcourt. They didn't want to be equalized by Atletico Madrid in a good situation.

With the passage of time, there is not much time left for Atletico Madrid, not to mention continuing the winning streak, even the undefeated golden body cannot be kept.

In the 404th minute of the second half, Atletico Madrid got a corner kick, and Wang Rui uncharacteristically wanted to serve the corner kick.This may be the last chance for Atletico Madrid to equalize the score. Atletico Madrid goalkeeper De Gea rushed into the penalty area of ​​Sporting Gijon, and he wanted to compete for a header.

What is he doing?
A British reporter looked at Wang Rui in the corner with a strange look in his eyes. He remembered a certain scene...

Wang Rui took two deep breaths, then exhaled heavily out of his body, glanced at the near post, and ran towards the football!

"Snapped!……"

The football flew up from the turf, and there was chaos in the Sporting Gijon penalty area. Diego Costa was held tightly by the opponent's central defender, unable to jump up at all.

But instead of anger and despair, there was surprise in the eyes of the Brazilian striker. He yelled: "The goal has been scored!"

In his roar, the football flew directly into the net from the upper corner of the near post!
Three to three!
Atletico Madrid miraculously equalized the score!
