Chapter 154: Potential Crisis
Silence is the note on the Milan bench at the moment.
And the Atletico Madrid bench was full of ecstasy after a fluke.
When expectations are set very low, people are more likely to be satisfied. The applause of the fans in the stands was followed by more warm and incredible smiles.
Simeone nodded to himself, then motioned for Rodriguez to come over, and the two got together, and Simeone explained a few more words.
The essence of team spirit is to give up oneself and adapt to others. Complaining is the biggest thing in team spirit, and it's important not to be just self-centered and someone who complains a lot – Simeone has always used this criterion to find the players he really needs to play.
Rodriguez may have been a bit self-centered on the pitch, but at least he hasn't learned to complain.
After a few words of advice from Simeone, Rodriguez's return defense was noticeably more positive. He was also relieved to return to the bench again.
The first half was slow and leisurely, but it went on the track set by Simeone, and the team that won the game 1:0 lost again, and football is so unpredictable.
Simeone was naturally very satisfied with the score, the lowest price, and the best result.
On the way back to the tunnel at half-time, Boggs suggested that Adrian be removed, and his side could not make any difference. In fact, Boggs didn't agree with Simeone's approach to putting Adrian in the first place.
Simeone shook his head and smiled wryly, there was indeed no one. It's just that he didn't expect Adrian to play so badly.
For many people, opinion means dignity, and it is necessary to let one's opinion prevail, so that there is no way to learn and progress, and there is no way to hear the most authentic and correct voice. In his third year in charge, Simeone learned that he had to look at his dignity separately from his point of view.
"Then replace him. Simeone said.
…… ……
The atmosphere in midfield was not too serious, because Simeone and the players knew that the quality of the game was very low.
It's just that Adrian's Atletico Madrid was replaced, and the attack was not much better. In the end, it was Courtois's magical play that he managed to retain a one-goal advantage.
"This boy will be a great man. Falcao stood up and stretched. There was a cold sweat in the boredom of the second half of the game, and if it wasn't for Courtois's commotion, Simeone might not have been able to laugh.
Ding Yue said seriously: "He has already become a weapon." ”
Some people are destined to eat goalkeepers, such as Gianluigi Buffon, such as Manuel Neuer..... although Courtois's future achievements are unknown, but at least there is no problem in becoming a first-class goalkeeper.
"Yes. Fack's young age is getting more and more advantageous, and a veteran like me is going to worry. Falcao joked.
The most feared thing about chatting is that the listener has a heart, but Ding Yue smiled and didn't answer.
There were a lot of players walking around the pitch to interact with the fans, and many of the players who would not normally be able to start looked excited to appear in a Champions League match like this, and the end result was exhilarating no matter what the scene was.
After winning this game, there is no suspense about winning the group, and what Atletico Madrid needs to consider is already the opponent in the first round of the knockout round.
"Ding. ,.. Sign me for it!"
"Ding, you are the strongest!
"I love you! Ding Yue! I love you!"
As he was about to leave the pitch, the surrounding fans once again turned their eyes back to the Atletico stars in the stands. Ding Yue's voice is naturally the highest.
For signatures, Ding Yue is already familiar with it.
Stubbornly, Ding Yue only signed his Chinese name.
A dragon flying and phoenix dance, a signature is completed.
Notebooks, footballs, jerseys, and even some directly ask to sign on the back of your hand....remember to wash your hands when you go back, buddy.
"Ding, we're going to make it to the final four, right?"
A little girl who looked to be about ten years old opened her eyes wide, excitedly held up Ding Yue's jersey, and shouted loudly.
Ding Yue looked back, and the fanaticism in the girl's eyes was about to overflow.
Smiling, Ding Yue didn't answer, but walked over, stopped in front of the little girl, took out his mobile phone, leaned in front of her, and took a selfie.
In the case of a team result that greatly exceeds the psychological expectations of the fans, any move by the players will be favored. A bunch of fans behind the little girl came over.
Click.
In the reluctant voices of the fans, Ding Yue and his party left the stands.
The nerves of the players began to move on to the next game, which is the La Liga game at home to Getafe on November 11.
Ten wins in a row.
Looking at the top five leagues in Europe, this is a remarkable achievement. But herein lies the problem, the more you don't want it to happen, the more likely it is.
And it is inevitable that some players will become relaxed because of the comfort of the current situation, and when they relax, they will make mistakes.
The day before the game, Simeone announced his starting line-up.
The main forces are all back.
In the pre-match set-up meeting, Simeone really re-emphasised the need to underestimate an enemy who seemed to be more 'strong' than Getafe.
"If you can't get the ball down this time, don't blame me for letting you climb into bed at night during training!"
After the laughter, I don't know how much these people listened.
But every time he is on the field, Ding Yue is always the one who fights the hardest, and he doesn't want to accept the tears of failure, so he can only pay salty sweat first!
…… ……
After a long time, after all the players had withdrawn, Boggs frowned and said, "It's still a little frivolous. ”
Simeone stood up and pushed open the window of the tactics room, looking stunned, as if he had seen something strange.
Boggs was suspicious, walked behind him and looked out the window, and couldn't help but be stunned for a while. As soon as they left the building, the people who were still very serious walked towards the end of the path.
"It was so relaxing. Boggs sighed: "But it is inconvenient for us to intervene, lest we be accused of destroying the atmosphere of internal harmony." But seeing this go on, something is bound to happen. ”
Atletico boss, Mr. Simeone with a smile on his face. Silent for a while.
After thinking about it, Simeone said with a smile: "Relax? Who doesn't relax? With this streak, Real Madrid and Barcelona have not caught up...... Such a good record, to be honest, sometimes I float, do I really have to lose?"
As the coach of the team, he is in charge of Atletico Madrid, but the human heart is ...... If you want to manage it, you can manage it. ”
Boggs asked helplessly, "Really can't help it?"
The smile on Simone's face gradually faded, and he said, "Actually, you don't need to think about it, since even I have such thoughts, then it is not surprising that these boys have these thoughts." ”
He then sneered: "It's just that if it breaks out now, it's fine, but when it comes to the critical battle, it will be troublesome." ”
Boggs frowned and said: "If this balloon doesn't pop for a day, it is really in danger of bursting." ”
