Chapter 195 Repeated Defeats!
When Wansheng led Atlético de Madrid and won Bayern Munich at home, the European media didn't think it was anything. Atlético de Madrid was not bad, and it was normal to win the giants at home. The competition situation in Group A was still very encouraging. But just because you win the next game, you can be sure of qualifying.
But Atletico Madrid won the second game - away to Napoli.
After two rounds of the Champions League group stage, Atletico Madrid successfully scored 6 points and firmly occupied the first position in the group.
At this time, the European media felt unusual.
The game between Atlético Madrid and Naples was easy to win. The three goals in the game also made everyone see the absolute gap between the two teams. Just less than ten days ago, Naples also drew at the Manchester Stadium. .
Are Manchester City still the favourites to qualify?
of course not!
The biggest favorite to qualify for Group A is Atlético de Madrid and Bayern Munich. Because of the match between Manchester City and Bayern Munich the next day, Bayern Munich won 2-0. The German media's comment on this was, "Bayern tore Manchester City's fake giant label!"
In the summer, Manchester City caused a bloody storm in the transfer market. They did not hesitate to introduce many strong aids including Aguero and Nasri. The investment of more than 100 million euros also made the configuration of Manchester City's various lines even more terrifying. .
In the new Premier League season, Manchester City's strong start is also impressive, and it has the momentum to rival Manchester United.
In the Champions League, Manchester City is also seen as one of the favorites to win the title. However, Mancini and his disciples would never have imagined that their Champions League start would be so bumpy, and their first Champions League victory was so elusive.
At the Allianz Arena, Manchester City lowered their heads, and the strength of Bayern Munich made them deeply appreciate the cruelty of the Champions League.
Despite being tied by Naples at home in the first round, Manchester City still has unabated confidence. Coach Mancini even threw out a must-win speech to beat Bayern Munich away in the second round, and before the game, Manchester City players also have Expressing his confidence in defeating Bayern Munich, the former Bundesliga star Dzeko, who helped Wolfsburg beat Bayern to win the championship, threatened Bayern's strength before the game is not stronger than Manchester City, but the final 2-0 score made everyone. A Manchester City player felt the cold winter ahead of time, and Mancini's rhetoric before the game has long been reduced to a joke made by fans.
This loss has become a major blow to Manchester City.
And Bayern Munich, which successfully won three points at the Allianz Arena, swept away the haze of the away loss to Atletico Madrid, and the group points jumped over Naples and Manchester City, ranking second in A.
Although Bayern Munich is no longer the biggest favorite to qualify for Group A, for the teams participating in the UEFA Champions League, as long as they can get the top two, there is not much difference between the first and the second qualifying.
Of course, the most concerned is Atletico Madrid.
Atlético de Madrid's two-game winning streak in the group has made all European media begin to pay attention. Before, some people believed that Wansheng led Manchester City to a peak of personal coaching glory. Now leading Atlético de Madrid, it is too difficult to create miracles. , but the Champions League group stage has been carried out for two rounds, at least it can be seen that Atlético Madrid want to qualify is not a big problem.
After qualifying from the Champions League group, they entered the round of 16, and if a good draw is drawn, it is not a problem to enter the quarter-finals.
So how far can Atletico Madrid go in the Champions League?
————
Wansheng has no time to care about European media reports.
After leading the team back to Madrid, the players did not have a day off. After a day of training, the entire team went to the Camp Nou to challenge the home team Barcelona.
This is the sixth round of La Liga and the fifth game.
If you don't consider Atletico Madrid, Barcelona's results are really good. In the first four games of the league, they have won three and drawn one, including an 8-0 victory. In the league, Barcelona also achieved a record of one win and one draw, and there is no problem at all in terms of qualifying from the group.
But with Atletico Madrid it was different.
Last season, Barcelona was 'three kills' by Atlético de Madrid, the league lost to Atletico Madrid at home and away, and the Spanish King's Cup final was also lost to Atletico Madrid. Not to mention the loss of the Spanish King's Cup, Barcelona also 'disgraceful' The second place in the Copa del Rey qualified for the Spanish Super Cup, but the Spanish Super Cup really became a disgrace, and Barcelona still lost the championship.
Atletico Madrid have beaten Barcelona four times in a row!
They have become the heart disease of the Barcelona team, the Catalan media and all Barcelona fans!
You can imagine how desperate Barcelona are to beat Atletico Madrid.
The Barcelona club wants to wash away the shame, and every Barcelona player is also high-spirited, no matter what, they want to beat Atlético Madrid, just for the honor of the team and the individual.
Now the game at Camp Nou is an opportunity!
The label played by the Catalan media is 'revenge', and the Barcelona fans also chanted the slogan of 'revenge'. They vowed to the world to defeat Atlético de Madrid and the Wansheng team to complete the mission of revenge.
But Wan Sheng didn't care at all, but instead criticized the slogan of the Barcelona fans, "Vengeance? It's boring, they can't say something new? Or is Spanish vocabulary so lacking?"
"We have a lot of allusions in China, can we use them?"
"If I were to say it, I would say that we are trying hard, our previous failures are just to sum up our experience and lessons, and in the end, it is all for the sake of winning this game!"
"In other words, we have been defeated and fought again and again. Even if we continue to fail, we must fight against the enemy with high fighting spirit! No matter how many times we fail, our confidence and fighting spirit cannot be extinguished..."
Catalan media listened ignorantly, but they felt very powerful. They found that this Chinese man was really good at talking, and there are indeed many allusions to the distant ancient country!
A reporter thought of a world famous novel - Romance of the Three Kingdoms!
Although he has long forgotten what the Romance of the Three Kingdoms is about, the story inside seems to be very powerful.
After the Catalan media reported it, some people went to check Wansheng's words of "hard work and repeated defeats", but these two words are a bit too long to translate into Spanish, and they don't look like them. slogan.
When the game came, some fan groups directly used Chinese as a reference.
When the players of the two teams played, Wan Sheng followed the team to the coach's bench. Wang Qiuming suddenly covered his mouth and laughed. Wan Sheng was stunned for a moment, followed the direction of Wang Qiuming's finger, and burst out laughing.
I saw that the Barcelona fans in the east stand were holding a big banner that said--
"Barcelona, keep fighting and losing!"
Wan Sheng looked at it with a smile, and said to Fan Zhiyi next to him, "Look, that must be our fans!" (To be continued ~^~)
