Chapter 337 Defeat the Bat Legion
After setting the target, the confidence of Atlético Madrid's players was unprecedented.
On September 23, on the third day after the game against Barcelona, the team is about to go away to Valencia.
The current season has just started, and the schedule of competitions does not need to be so intensive, but because of the power struggle between the La Liga and the Spanish Football Federation, the La Liga season of the new season was suspended for two weeks at the beginning of the first round. After the schedule is rescheduled, it will be necessary in September. Compressed game time.
Valencia is the third largest city in Spain, and the Valencia club is also a veteran team in Spain. They won the third place in the league last season, and at the turn of the century, Valencia even had two consecutive games. Reached the Champions League final this season.
It's a pity that they failed twice in the Champions League final and failed to make a breakthrough in the European arena.
After they entered the new century, Valencia gradually fell behind Barcelona and Real Madrid in the competition, but apart from these two teams, Valencia's performance in the league is still quite good, they almost every All seasons can reach the Champions League and maintain a stable top four in the league.
Valencia finished third in the league last season, but this season, Valencia's two core players left.
Striker Villa was taken away by Barcelona for 40 million euros, while midfielder Silva was won by British upstart Manchester City for 30 million euros!
Another main striker Zhikic was also taken away by the British team Birmingham for 7 million euros.
Last season, Valencia's main line-up suddenly lost three players.
However, after the start of the season, Valencia's state does not seem to be affected by the departure of the main force.
In the three rounds of the league, Valencia defeated Malaga 3-1 away, 1-o Santander at home, and Hekus 2-1 away.
With three wins from three games and nine points, they are behind Atletico Madrid on goal difference.
Now in the standings, there are currently three teams with nine points. In addition to Atletico Madrid and Valencia, Sevilla has also won three consecutive games.
It's just that Valencia and Sevilla have not yet met a strong enemy after the start of the three rounds, so public opinion generally believes that Atletico Madrid's three-game winning streak is more valuable, because their victory also includes victory over Barcelona. !
And after this game, a team's winning streak is destined to be ended.
Valencia naturally does not want to lose to Atletico Madrid at home. At the press conference before the game, Valencia's coach Emery was very confident in Valencia's home victory over Atletico Madrid.
"Atlético de Madrid did show a good form after the start of the league, but this game is our home ground and I don't think Valencia will be any weaker than Atlético de Madrid. Valencia at home will be Do your best to win!"
The local media in Valencia are also very confident.
The first is the results of the two sides.
In the past two decades, Valencia has remained unbeaten in its home games against Atlético de Madrid, except for a one-goal loss in 2oo2-2oo3!
Valencia's past record is displayed, but this behavior is more like whistling to embolden itself. After all, after Atletico Madrid beat Barcelona, Valencia's media dream is still very important to the current strength of Atletico Madrid. Bottomless.
Valencia's midfielder Juan Mata also said in an interview that Valencia will strive to win at home and maintain its winning streak.
When Gao Bo was studying the current Valencia team, there are still many players that Gao Bo is very familiar with in their lineup.
Goalkeeper Cesar, of course he is not the Brazilian national team's Cesar, but the goalkeeper is also a famous player in Spain.
Of course, the story that fans have had the most impact on Cesar is undoubtedly the Champions League final in the 2oo1-2oo2 season. At that time, Cesar played as the main goalkeeper of Real Madrid, but in the 68th minute of the game, Cesar was injured accidentally, and Casillas was ordered in danger. Since then, Casillas has been firmly seated as the main goalkeeper of Real Madrid. .
If it is a story with Casillas as the protagonist, in this story, the unlucky person is Cesar, who lost his main position due to injury.
Since then, Cesar has been transferred to many teams, and also played for Tottenham for a short time, but he did not get any chance to play.
Cesar returned to Spain last season, joined Valencia, and quickly became the main goalkeeper of the Bat Legion.
Although Cesar's experience seems unfortunate, but as the main goalkeeper of the first phase of the Galaxy Battleship at that time, Cesar's strength is beyond doubt.
In addition to Cesar, Valencia's lineup also includes Mata!
The player who later moved to Chelsea and won a career Grand Slam is now a promising star in Valencia's frontcourt. He acts as an attacking midfielder in the frontcourt.
In addition to Mata, Valencia also has Joaquin, Mathieu, Soldado, Alba and other well-known stars.
It can be said that the strength of Valencia is definitely not to be underestimated.
Gao Bo was always emphasizing this point with the players when preparing for the game.
The opponent is also a team that has won three consecutive games. If Atletico Madrid's players have insufficient awareness of the opponent's strength, at the Mestalli Stadium, who will win and who will lose may not be certain.
......
On the evening of September 23, the Mestalli Stadium was full, and more than 50,000 Valencia fans made a huge noise in their home stadium.
Players from both sides line up.
Valencia's is not much of a surprise, all their main players played.
"Valencia sent the main lineup for this game, goalkeeper Cesar, right-back Miguel, center-back Navarro and Maduro, left-back Mathieu, two midfielders Dino Costa And Albelda, right midfielder Joaquin, midfielder Mata, left midfielder Domingos, striker Aduriz!"
After the commentator finished reading Valencia's name on the commentary stand, another commentator, Mateo, continued.
"The main force is the best. Compared with Valencia, Atletico Madrid's lineup has changed a lot compared to their previous list. Goalkeeper De Gea, centre-back Godin and Boateng partner, left-back Antonio Lopez , right back Barrera, in midfield, Mario Suarez replaced Modric, while Thiago Silva replaced Raul Garcia, and the two midfielders were rested. There are also two personnel changes on the forward line. Diego Costa has replaced Aguero on the list, while Reyes is also sitting on the bench in this game, and the player is the 18-year-old teenager Mane. !! This game Atlético de Madrid has six personnel changes!"
"This is because this game and Atlético Madrid's last game are only three days apart, and Gao Bo has to give his players enough rest, while Valencia's last game was on September 19. , they have one more day off than Atletico Madrid. Valencia are playing at home, and they have one more day off than Atletico Madrid, and it is really not easy for Atletico Madrid to win this game!”
The two commentators sang a harmony, and the players from both sides had already entered the stadium.
Gao Bo and Emery shook hands and greeted each other before returning to the coaching bench.
For Emery, Gao Bo was quite familiar with him in his previous life. In his previous life, Emery came to Sevilla and led Sevilla to the Europa League three consecutive championships. During that time, the Europa League was also ridiculed as Sevilla. cup.
Emery is undoubtedly a manager who is very familiar with Spanish football and has considerable ability.
.....
The opponent's coach is very capable, and Valencia's strength is also good.
So 15 minutes after the game, Atlético de Madrid conceded the goal!
"Aduris!!!!!!!!!! Beautiful!!!!!!!" commentator Aduris was shouting for the player Aduris.
Valencia's No. 11 striker Aduris beat Boateng in the penalty area, jumped high, and scored a header!
Before that, Valencia's counterattack was quite fast!
Midfielder Albertal received a precise diagonal pass from Mata on the right, and then sent the ball into the penalty area.
Aduriz's powerful header left De Gea helpless.
Valencia scored and the score became 1-0!
At the Mestalli Stadium, Valencia's players cheered, and Aduriz also celebrated in the stadium under the pursuit of Valencia players.
Gao Bo's face was very ugly.
At the beginning of the game, Atletico Madrid took the initiative. After the start of the game, they used the constant transmission and cooperation from the frontcourt to suppress Valencia.
However, Valencia's only counterattack made a goal!
This made Atletico Madrid's players very helpless. Before Valencia counterattacked, they still had a few shots.
It's a pity that they were turned away by Cesar!
"Fifteen minutes in the first half, Valencia took the lead. Now Atletico Madrid is in trouble. They have to face Valencia's impregnable wall. Valencia is the best defensive counterattack team!!!" Adu Reese sat back in his seat.
The Mestalli Stadium is still cheering.
"That's right, especially since they have two fast wingers and a midfielder who can threaten the ball at any time!" Mateo echoed.
The side of Mane's attack was just close to Gao Bo's side, so Gao Bo immediately called Mane over.
"Hey, listen! Sadio!!!" Gao Bo said, grabbing the thin and weak Mane, "You need to strengthen your breakthrough on the wing!! Use your speed and explosiveness to break through Miguel!! !!Understand?!"
Mane, who just came out of the academy, doesn't seem to have much confidence.
"I..." Mane hesitated, Valencia's main right-back Miguel, and he was just a little guy from Senegal, can he really do it?
"Don't think too much, Sadio! I brought you to Madrid because of your strength!! Trust me, Sadio!! You can definitely pass him easily!!" Gao Bo patted Mane on the shoulder and said, " Go up! Don't think too much! Hit him if you have a chance!!!"
Before Mane could say anything, he was pushed back to the court by Gao Bo.
Gao Bo naturally has confidence in Mane. In terms of speed, no player in the Atlético Madrid team is as good as Mane! What shocked Gao Bo even more was his explosive power!
In the future, Mane's ability to make a name for himself in the UK will largely depend on his explosive power.
And Miguel is an experienced right-back, but if Mane relies on his speed to smash him, Miguel really has no good way!
In football, speed and explosiveness are sometimes unreasonable.
It didn't take long for Mane to get the ball on the left!
Mane's basic skills are very good, he stopped the ball, and then looked up to Miguel who came up to defend!
"What are you hesitating!!! Sadio!!!!"
Gao Bo covered his mouth with both hands, forming a temporary loudspeaker, and then roared at Mane in the distance!
Mane's body froze, and then he gritted his teeth!
It's not easy to have a chance to play! ! !
Fight! ! !
Mane immediately dribbled the ball and took the initiative to approach the opponent's right-back Miguel.
Miguel was no exception. He stepped back, looked left and right, and then stared at Mane.
Miguel doesn't care too much about Mane. This black guy who looks like a bamboo pole is too intimidating. If he is facing a player like Reyes now, Miguel You must not dare to look left and right, and want to strengthen the defense of other positions.
And just as Mane approached him, when Miguel was serious, the black guy opposite suddenly disappeared from his eyes!
Miguel hurriedly turned around, but Miguel who reacted at this time only saw the back of Mane!
"What a quick start!!!!" Aduris exclaimed in the stands.
You can really see it from the stands looking at the stadium.
Mane almost went from stillness to movement, and completed the addition in an instant! And the careless Miguel didn't have time to react at all! !
After getting up, Mane turned into a black shadow, he didn't use any special skills, pure speed was enough to let him pass Miguel!
Then Mane passed the ball to the penalty area near the bottom line!
In the penalty area, Diego Costa pressed the defender behind him and blocked the ball with his thigh! !
"goooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooa1!!!!!!!"
"Diego Costa!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"Atlético de Madrid equalized the score not long after conceding the goal. The player who scored the goal was the striker Diego Costa! And 80% of the credit for this goal should be attributed to the 18-year-old teenager Ma On Nei's head, his sudden activation was really too fast, so fast that Miguel couldn't react at all!!!!"
After the goal, Diego Costa also knew who deserved the most credit for the goal, so after the goal, Diego pointed to Mane and motioned him to come up and celebrate together.
Other Atlético Madrid players surrounded the two in succession, and many players put their hands on Mane's head, shattering the young man's shape.
Before this, Mane's presence in the team was not high. After all, in the eyes of the first team players, Mane was no different from other players in the youth academy, because in the training of the first team, Gao Bo still often Some young players from the youth academy are selected to train with the first team and the players, and Mane has never been in the league, and it is normal that he cannot attract the attention of other players.
After all, in a professional team, there is a huge gap between the regular first-team players and those teenage young players, which is the gap in strength.
And when Mane shows his ability on the pitch, the players will naturally regard him as a member of the team and let him integrate into the collective.
And this breakthrough also gave Mane confidence.
In the next game, Miguel was overwhelmed by Mane's breakthrough. The Valencia right-back is estimated to be the figure of Mane whizzing past him after this game.
And Mane's breakthrough naturally led him to invite Valencia players to violate him. Mane frequently fell to the ground in the frontcourt, and Atletico Madrid also frequently got set-pieces in the frontcourt.
Set-pieces are an offensive method that Gao Bo attaches great importance to, and after several attempts, Atletico Madrid finally made gains through set-piece attacks in the 38th minute of the first half.
Mane made a breakthrough from the left to create a set-piece, and then Griezmann took a free kick. This time Griezmann did not pass the ball into the penalty area, but waited until the attacker in the penalty area of Atlético de Madrid squashed the opponent's defense. After that, Griezmann suddenly passed the ball near the top of the arc.
Thiago Cardoso hit the ball and the ball flew from the left corner to the goal!
Before the first half of the game was over, Atletico Madrid reversed the score!
After Atletico Madrid took the lead, Valencia's defensive counterattack naturally failed.
In the 68th minute of the second half, Griezmann received a pass from Kante on the right and drove the ball into the penalty area. After shaking the angle, he shot again from a small angle!
Football is sent to goal again!
Three to one, Atletico Madrid sealed the victory!
In the following game, neither side scored again.
After the game, Atletico Madrid won four consecutive victories since the start, while Valencia's winning streak was ended by Atletico Madrid.
