Chapter 1058: Looks like it's going to win the championship
May 3, the 36th round of La Liga.
Chinatown hosts Rayo Vallecano away.
Just two minutes into the game, Eden Hazard picked up the ball on the left flank and set up a goal from the Spanish left-back to open the scoring for Chinatown.
After that, Chinatown completely took control of the situation on the field.
In the 36th minute, Koke assisted Antoine Griezmann to score another goal to make it 2-0.
After the rematch in the second half, China City launched a wave of attacks, starting with Antoine Griezmann setting up Firmino's goal in the 53rd minute, and then Koke setting up Eden Hazard three minutes later.
In just three minutes, Chinatown scored two goals in a row to extend the score to 4-0.
In the 68th minute, Roberto Firmino assisted Antoine Griezmann to score a brace to make it 5-0.
In the 89th minute, Paul Pogba assisted substitute Jesse to score the last goal of the game.
6-0, Chinatown beat Rayo Vallecano away.
This completely crushing victory once again sounded the final horn of the league title race.
At the post-match press conference, head coach Zinedine Zidane said in an interview with the media that there are still two rounds of the league, and Atletico Madrid will be a guest at the Camp Nou in the last round, and Chinatown still has a chance.
'We've always had a tradition of fighting until the last minute, and this season is the same. ”
"We will not give up until the last minute. ”
Zidane's remarks were also unanimously agreed by the players, and captain De Gea even said that regardless of the final league title, the team will do its best to win.
Eden Hazard also made a rare promise that "we have two rounds left, no doubt we will win them all, and the final pressure is left to Atletico Madrid." ”
I don't know if it was the pressure of a big win for China City, or the after-effects of a midweek defeat to Manchester City, Atletico Madrid played badly in the round of 36, losing 1-0 away to Levante.
This defeat made Atletico Madrid very passive, although they were still able to maintain the league leader position with the advantage of the match-to-head results, but Chinatown's catch-up has become more and more urgent.
In this round, Barcelona and Real Madrid both drew at home and both dropped points.
At this point in the league, the championship race has entered the final stage.
Chinatown or Atletico Madrid, who will have the last laugh?

…………
May 10, the thirty-seventh round of La Liga.
Atletico Madrid hosted Schuster's Málaga.
The two teams battled hard for an hour, and Simeone's side were never able to knock on the Málaga goal, but in the 65th minute, the opposing striker Samuel sneaked up and scored a goal.
Atletico Madrid are on the verge of crumbling under the pressure to win the title.
But at the critical moment, in the 74th minute, central defender Ramos stepped forward and took advantage of a set-piece opportunity in front of the field to score a goal for Atletico Madrid with a header to equalize the score at 1-1.
Ramos' goal completely ignited the flames of Atletico Madrid, especially after the goal, he angrily shouted at his teammates and continued to launch a fierce attack on Malaga, which boosted the morale of the Sheets.
But Malaga also stuck to the goal and did not back down, and the two sides were once inseparable.
It wasn't until the 88th minute that central defender Angelelli received a second yellow card of the game for a defensive foul and was sent off with a red card, which made Malaga's defense unbalanced.
Just two minutes later, in the first minute of stoppage time, Navas Navas on the right wing of Atletico Madrid broke through to create a corner, and Ramos stepped up again at the crucial moment to score with a header to turn the score around.
2-1, Ramos' brace saved Atletico Madrid's title hopes and reversed Malaga.
In another matchup at the same time, Chinatown smashed Real Sociedad 5-0 at home.
Iljaramendi and Antoine Griezmann scored again, and Chinatown scored eleven goals in two games to make it a strong momentum, but had to remain three points behind Atletico Madrid in the standings.
Barcelona drew away again in this round and completely withdrew from the championship race.
Real Madrid lost 2-0 away to Luis Enrique's Celta Vigo in a desperate situation.
The final league standings of the Spanish Super League duo have been basically determined, ranking third and fourth respectively.
But the title race between Chinatown and Atletico Madrid has entered the most critical moment.
…………
…………
On May 18, the 38th round of La Liga's final match.
Due to the crucial nature of the final round, all 10 matches in this round were played at the same time.
Gao Han personally led the team to challenge Almeria away.
For the first time in this game, Zidane lined up the Spanish youth squad of Ilya Ramendi, Koke and Isco in midfield, all three of whom are regarded as the core stalwart of the next decade in Spain, and this time Zidane was pushed into the starting lineup.
The trio also lived up to Zidane's high expectations, and after just three minutes of the game, Isco dribbled the ball out of the chaos and set up Eden Hazard to score a goal to open the scoring for Chinatown.
After that, the game fell into a stalemate.
With Eden Hazard injured, Zinedine Zidane replaced him in the 54th minute, with teenager Jesus coming on as a substitute.
Jesus was on the pitch for just six minutes before threatening down the left and setting up Roberto Firmino's goal.
2-0, Chinatown basically locked up the win.
Zinedine Zidane was quick to make a substitution, with Alvaro Morata coming on in place of Roberto Firmino.
In the 72nd minute, Koke assisted Antoine Griezmann to score another goal to extend the score to 3-0.
Seeing that the situation was decided, Zidane made a final substitution with Saul for Ilya Ramendi.
But then in the 75th minute, Jesus set up Isco's goal.
In the 81st minute, substitute Saul assisted Alvaro Morata to score.
5-0, Chinatown beat Almeria away.
In the last three rounds, Chinatown played a crazy state, winning by big scores in a row, and the goal momentum was out of control.
…………
…………
Gao Han sat in the stands, and after seeing Morata score, he only applauded with satisfaction.
In the last three rounds, Chinatown did play a very high level of performance, and the state and enthusiasm of every player were fully mobilized, which is not difficult to see that after this season's training, the overall strength of Chinatown has improved a lot.
"To be honest, with the team's current performance, even if it doesn't win the championship in the end, it's worth it. Gao Han said helplessly.
Cantarero, who was sitting next to him, was also worried, looking at Gao Han's eyes, as if asking, don't you have confidence?
"This feeling of pinning your hopes on others is really uncomfortable!" Gao Han said in a rare foul language.
Who's to say it isn't?
When he was coaching, he was invincible, but when he arrived in Chinatown, he had to fight to the death with his opponent.
The overall performance of Chinatown this season is really good, and the progress of this group of young players in the team is obvious to all, regardless of whether they can win the championship in the end, it is already a rich harvest in itself.
Of course, from the standpoint of Chinatown, Gao Han hopes that the team can win the championship.
A championship will greatly stimulate the team and the players.
Martino looked a little frustrated. Gao Han shook his head.
Yesterday afternoon, Martino said in his pre-match press conference that he would leave the Barcelona position regardless of the team's final victory, a fact that had already been pronounced and he had to accept.
It is indeed a bit disappointing that the manager said such frustrating things before the big game.
Of course, this does not mean that Barcelona will release water at the Camp Nou, but it is not difficult to see from Martino's words that Barcelona is far inferior to Atletico Madrid in terms of pure fighting spirit.
In this case, this big battle at Camp Nou is really worrying.
Cantarero was equally anxious, turned on his mobile phone and logged in to the club's data analysis system to check the progress of the game.
Since the two games kicked off at the same time, the game at the Camp Nou had just entered the 80th minute, and now the score is 1-1, a draw.
Barcelona scored a goal in the 34th minute of the first half through Lionel Messi and Ibrahimovic, but after the start of the second half, Simeone's side launched a counterattack and Gabi assisted Ramos to equalise. ”
"Ramos?" Gao Han's brow furrowed when he heard the name.
A week ago, it was Ramos' brace that helped Atletico Madrid get out of the hands of Malaga and keep the hope of winning the league title, but he didn't expect Ramos to score again in this round to help Atletico Madrid equalize.
"Has this kid gone crazy in the last two rounds?" Cantarero shook his head incessantly.
Ramos was personally operated from Sevilla to Atletico Madrid by Gao Han, just because he served as a ball boy in a game, played a few kicks, and was favored by Gao Han, which is still talked about by countless fans.
Time has passed, and now Ramos is already the soul of the Atletico Madrid team, the core of the defense, the performance is not outstanding, and the brave momentum on his body is very in line with the tradition of Atletico Madrid, and Simeone can't put it down.
If Ramos has had a mixed reputation for frizz in the past few years, his performances in the last two rounds have justified himself.
"One-to-one, in the real-time standings we got to the top. Cantarero said.
China City is an early 5-0 lead, basically it can be said that the overall situation has been decided, the rest depends on Atletico Madrid and Barcelona this game, if the two sides draw, China City will be two points advantage against Atletico Madrid to reach the top, win the first La Liga championship in the club's history.
"Ten minutes to go, it's hard to say. Gao Han frowned and shook his head.
Simeone's team is notoriously predatory, Chinatown will not give up until the last minute, but Atletico Madrid will not be willing to give up the league title either, he will definitely fight hard.
Compared with the game on the Chinatown side, the battle that took place at Camp Nou was even more worrying.
Cantarero sat in the stands and simply went straight to the live broadcast of the event to watch the match at the Camp Nou live in real time.
Sure enough, as Gao Han expected, Simeone was unwilling to be killed, and after entering the 80th minute, he made continuous substitutions and adjustments to strengthen the team's offensive, and he had the momentum to fight Barcelona to the end.
Barcelona has no desire, and under the strong pressure of Atletico Madrid, it is a little timid, and even caused the dissatisfaction of the fans in the stands of the Camp Nou stadium, and there were a lot of boos.
As the minutes ticked by, Atletico Madrid struggled to break Barcelona's goal, but the determination of the Sheets was laid bare on the field.
Even if the time has entered stoppage time, even the TV commentator said that Chinatown looks like it is going to win the championship, but Atletico Madrid in the stadium continues to press Barcelona frantically, and Ramos, Torres and Villa and others continue to boost the morale of their teammates and keep calling on their teammates to press.
Gao Han's heart was also hanging in the air.
At this moment, Villa on the left side of Atletico Madrid suddenly cut in, Alves fouled while defending, and the referee gave Atletico Madrid another chance to take a free kick in front.
Gabi faced the wall and calmly unleashed a high ball that fell straight to the front point.
In the penalty area, Villa and other players dangled a shot to attract the attention of the defense, but Ramos suddenly came out of the back row, grabbed before Otamendi, and the header was rubbed, and Torres followed up with a close-range header to score!
When Torres leapt from the ground and roared in the sky, Cantarero almost shattered his phone.
2 to 1, Atletico Madrid reversed again!
