The 2013-2014 La Liga season was spectacular, with the three teams vying for the league title on a rather delicate note, with leaders Atletico Madrid at the top of the table by one point, Real Madrid in second place by one point, and Barcelona four points behind Atletico and three points behind Real Madrid.

However, with Atletico taking on Real Madrid at the Estadio Calderón after the Champions League break, this is a veritable battle for the top spot.

If there is no way to decide the winner of this game, once Barcelona win, the gap between the three teams will close to a closer, making the final title of La Liga this season even more confusing.

As a result, the Spanish media and the mainstream European media are paying close attention to the battle for the top spot at the Estadio Calderón at the weekend, as is Barcelona.

If Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid can't tell the winner, once they win at home, the difference will be minimized, and the title race this season is still playful.

After all, there is still a national derby and a home game against Atletico Madrid in the final round of the league.

One point, no longer a problem.

The local Catalan media are very united, so they were consciously fanning the emotions of both sides in the run-up to the Madrid derby, creating opportunities for Barcelona to narrow the scoreline.

There have been three Madrid derbies this season, with both sides winning one, drawing one and losing one, with Real Madrid leading in terms of goals, scoring three goals and conceding two.

However, the home results were not good, with one draw and one loss, but the away team won Atletico Madrid 3:1.

However, Atletico Madrid players were not convinced by their 3-1 home defeat to Real Madrid, and many Atletico Madrid players even expressed the 'subjective reasons' for the loss in post-match interviews and tweets.

Facing the upcoming Madrid derby, the Atletico players are going to be keen to beat Real Madrid in their next home game.

The first is that there is enough confidence in beating Real Madrid 1-0 away in the league, and the other is that the Copa del Rey semi-final lost to Real Madrid at home, and wants to regain face.

At the regular pre-match press conference, the first interviews were given to visiting coach Carlo Ancelotti and captain Sergio Ramos, who will start tomorrow night.

In the face of media interviews, whether it is Carlo Ancelotti or Ramos, they have shown great confidence.

Naturally, the pro-Atletico media will not let Carlo Ancelotti and Ramos get their way, and difficult questions are endless.

However, Angel landed and Ramos was in the right mindset, saying that they could win the Copa del Rey semi-finals at Calderón this season, and the next league top game could also be won.

In the pre-match press conference, there was no end to the-for-tat questions and answers, and the two sides did not continue to argue.

After all...... Everything will have to wait until the end of the game to reveal who was slapped in the face.

Half an hour later, it was the home team's regular press conference.

Simeone is still full of aura, and he brings in the team's striker Diego Costa.

In the entire Atletico team, only Diego Costa and Simeone coach have a similar temperament.

It's not that other players don't have an iron spirit, but Diego Costa has used his iron spirit to the fullest, often using his brilliant mind to help the team win profits.

Immediately, what happened at the away team's regular press conference was repeated at the home team's regular press conference.

The only difference is that Simeone's answer is more direct, or rather sloppy, than Ancelotti's.

He said with great momentum: "You want to win at Calderón Stadium? It doesn't exist! What? The Copa del Rey semi-final is 1-3 at home, you know it's the Copa del Rey! For us, the league title is much more important than the Copa del Rey!"

Speaking to the media, Diego Costa said of tomorrow night's game: "Goals, no problem!

The speed at which information spreads in modern society is terrifying, and the routine press conference has just ended, and it is basically known to everyone on the Internet.

The Real Madrid players and Atletico Madrid players were obviously very dissatisfied with each other's remarks, and in addition to not naming names on Twitter, what they wanted to express was basically mocking each other.

As one of Real Madrid's core players, Tang Zheng is naturally also targeted by Atletico Madrid players, especially Tulan, an international from Turkey, who tweeted that he will work with his teammates to restrict Tang Zheng 100% in tomorrow's game.

Tang Zheng smiled at this and didn't care too much.

Because...... A barking dog does not bite.

Besides, mocking the opponent on the eve of the big war doesn't it mean that you are afraid of the other party?

In this regard, Tang Zheng's mentality is very positive.

Tomorrow night's Madrid derby is at the top of the table, and he is holding back his strength to break out at the Calderón Stadium!

In particular, let his mentor Simone know that his proud disciple likes the pit master the most.

On March 2, local time in Spain, it was an ordinary day for many people, but it was an unusual day for fans, and the 252nd Madrid derby will be staged at the Calderón Stadium.

The two teams have met 153 times before the league, with Real Madrid having the upper hand with 85 wins, 32 draws and 36 defeats, and the away record is 33 wins, 20 draws and 23 defeats in 76 games.

However, having the upper hand in each other's meetings does not mean much, and the dominant position in the last four meetings between the two teams is Atletico Madrid, with two wins, one draw and one loss, and one win, one draw and one loss in the three meetings between the two teams this season.

In the league, Atletico Madrid beat Real Madrid away.

The move to the Stadio Calderón meant that everything had to start anew, and the past results could only be used as a reference and inspiration, not the key to the outcome of the game.

Before the game, players from both sides used the online platform to take the lead in the game, which has attracted the attention of fans around the world.

After all, the war of words before the game can add to the excitement of the game.

Calderón Stadium, just over two hours before the start of the game, was already filled with fans from both sides.

They looked down on each other, so there was no communication, and there was not much conflict between the two sides because of the presence of the police who maintained order.

Of course, verbal conflicts are inevitable.

The banners and slogans held high by Atletico Madrid fans are not used to Real Madrid fans, and on the contrary, the banners and slogans held up by Real Madrid fans are also unaccustomed to Atletico Madrid fans, so there are normal verbal conflicts.

Fortunately, the police who maintained order responded in time and stopped it in time when the quarrel was about to escalate.

In reality, there is police interference, and it can be said that no one is blocking it on the Internet.

According to the official Twitter of Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid, before the game, their official Twitter accounts were bombarded by fans of the opposing side, which means that they were not bombarded with words, but by hackers.

To get back to the point, when the Real Madrid players showed up at the Calderón Stadium to warm up, a huge tsunami-like boos quickly swept through the stadium from the players' tunnel entrance.

Real Madrid players are used to this kind of booing, but in the end, boos are a kind of noise that affects their mood, habit is one thing, and it is another thing to listen to a tense game.

Tang Zheng and Cristiano Ronaldo glanced at each other, stretched out each other's right hands, and shook them hard, seeing absolute confidence in each other's eyes.

Before the start of the Madrid derby, the results had already come at the Camp Nou, with Barcelona beating Almeria 4:1 at home.

Barcelona are level on Real Madrid's points with a game to go, just one point away from Atletico Madrid.

Whether it's Simeone in the home dressing room or Carlo Ancelotti in the away dressing room, they all look helpless.

Although the result is already predestined, people often have a bit of luck if the result of the game does not appear, what if Barcelona lose points at home?

That way, the team has a certain margin for error.

However, with Barcelona beating Almeria 4-1, Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid had to work harder for the upcoming Madrid derby.

Not long after, players from both sides led the caddies and appeared on the pitch behind the referees.

The Calderón Stadium has a capacity of 54,000 fans and is packed to capacity, with Atletico Madrid's red and white striped shirts and Real Madrid's white jersey fans distinct.

Due to the difference between home and away, Atletico Madrid fans at home have an absolute advantage, and when the players from both sides play, the home fans create a frenzied atmosphere to cheer for the home team.

In the south stand of the stadium, Atletico Madrid's die-hard fans built a huge TIFO show.

In the center is a huge anime poster that occupies 50% of the South Stand, showing a beefy cartoon fan in a red and white striped shirt beating a white and white cartoon character wearing a crown.

On both sides of the giant anime posters, a large number of fans hold up red or white mosaic boards and then put them together in the colors of Atletico's traditional jerseys.

The red and white mosaic board sets off the huge anime poster with more momentum, bringing a sense of belonging to the team and a certain psychological pressure on the opponent.

After the necessary pre-match ceremonies, the Real Madrid players were greeted by the home fans in the half, even more serious than the second leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final half a month ago.

All kinds of abuse are overwhelming.

Tang Zheng frowned, obviously hearing what the home fans were scolding.

In fact, for Tang Zheng, it is understandable that the fans scold him, after all, he is an opponent, but he doesn't understand the fans scolding his family.

Of course, Tang Zheng didn't go back, he held his back, and then let the home fans know in the next game that some people can't be 'offended' casually!

At the same time, Atletico Madrid coach Simeone, who returned to the coach's seat, subconsciously looked at his proud disciple Tang Zheng.

He saw that Tang Zheng's face was full of anger, and he felt a little bad in his heart.

When he was in charge of River Plate, whenever Tang Zheng showed such an angry expression on his face, the game would often be excellent.

The passionate shouts of the home fans will indeed give the home team psychological cues, and at the same time, it will be a double blade.

Thinking of this, Simeone left the dugout again, walked to the front of the home team's command area, shouted at Koke, and then hooked his finger and motioned for him to come over, with the latest instructions.

It wasn't until Cork tapped his head that Simeone was a little relieved, but instead of returning to the dugout, he stood in the home team's coaching area and waited for the game to begin.

The Atletico fans at the Calderón Stadium are very welcoming and the atmosphere created is very frenetic.

Against this backdrop, the energy of the home team is unimaginable.

Even though Real Madrid coach Carlo Ancelotti and his coaching team had a good plan before the game, the team played quite hard at the beginning of the game.

Tang Zheng and Xavi Alonso, who are the source of Real Madrid's attack, are closely targeted by Atletico Madrid players, and it is difficult to create a threat in attack.

The time has come to March, more than three months before the opening of the World Cup in Brazil, most of the Real Madrid players are the main core internationals, once injured at this juncture, it is very likely to miss the quadrennial gluttonous feast.

Tang Zheng's friend Falcao suffered a serious knee injury in the 1/16 final of the French Cup at the end of January, and it is expected that the earliest return time will be in July, which means that Falcao is likely to miss this year's World Cup in Brazil.

The same is true of Tang Zheng, he finally led the Chinese team to the World Cup, and then had the opportunity to compete in the World Cup.

In particular, Tang Zheng has not had any serious injuries since the beginning of his career, and he is more worried.

It's like a person who has never been sick, and once he gets sick, it's a serious illness.

In the face of the fierce actions of the Atletico Madrid players, Tang Zheng will also subconsciously dodge to avoid injuries.

Yang 5 commentator He Wei has a heavy heart: "To tell you from the heart, the Atletico Madrid players have a lot of action, compared to the first three Madrid derbies of this season, and they can choose to close their feet but not receive, I am worried that this will affect the normal development of the game......

As soon as the words fell, Cristiano Ronaldo received Tang Zheng's non-stop ball and horizontal pass, and Yu Guang saw an Atletico Madrid player approaching at high speed, and the outside of his right foot subconsciously pushed the ball to the right, and before he could jump, he was swept to the ground by Raul Garcia, who followed him.

Referee Ferrero's whistle sounded, but Cristiano Ronaldo, who fell to the ground, was very dissatisfied, and instantly bounced to the ground, roaring at Raul Garcia, who committed the foul, and splashing his saliva in the face.

Raul Garcia, as a Bacchus native, is full of blood and has a hot temper, and immediately went back in the face of Cristiano Ronaldo's roar.

Suddenly, their respective teammates surrounded them, and Tang Zheng stood directly in front of Cristiano Ronaldo, looking down at Raul Garcia condescendingly.

In the past five minutes of the game, Tang Zheng was also violated by Raul Garcia in a row, so his tone was particularly angry.

Diego Costa was very dissatisfied with Tang Zheng's tone, and he pushed Tang Zheng away from the side.

Ramos, who was very unhappy with the big moves of the Atletico players, naturally wanted to play the role of captain, and he questioned Diego Costa next to him.

Seeing that more and more players from both sides joined the physical conflict, the referee Ferrero hurriedly blew the whistle, and then ran between the players of both sides, temporarily acting as a barrier, and the assistant referee also rushed into the field to assist the referee.

Professional players are full of energy and can easily explode emotionally, but it is also easy to leave behind.

After all...... It's the game that's all about it.

Immediately, it was time for referee Ferrero to settle accounts.

Raúl Garcia and Cristiano Ronaldo, who caused the clashes, each received a yellow card, while Tang Zheng and Diego Costa each received verbal warnings.
