Atletico Madrid is one of the most traditional powerhouses in Spanish football, and although the training base is small, Mahada Enda has two standard venues for holding matches. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

One is the home stadium used by the youth team, with only one side of the seat, which can accommodate 1,500 people.

The venue for the invitational tournament is the Estadio Espino, the home of Atletico Madrid II, with a total of two seats and a capacity of 4,000 people, which is ten times the capacity of Getafe II's home stadium.

But even so, it still can't stand the large number of fans present.

The game was held at 17 p.m., but when the China City team arrived at the Espino stadium at 15 p.m., they found that the stands were already crowded and crowded.

Atletico Madrid also seemed to have learned the lesson of the Getafe stadium a week ago, and seeing that more and more fans were pouring into the training base, they immediately organized staff to empty the temporary facilities around the stadium and turn them into temporary standings.

But this only temporarily eased the demand of the fans in attendance.

Another thing that is commendable about Atletico Madrid II is that they have a separate dressing room on the sidelines.

Although the China City team is the away team, in the draw, it is the home team, so it is natural to be placed in the home team dressing room.

As soon as I entered, I saw a large poster of Atletico Madrid's second team on the opposite wall inside the door.

The most conspicuous person in the center is not the forty-year-old Madrid local coach, Zambrano!

The players of Atletico Madrid's second team are divided into left and right, and the arch guards are around him, and they look really imposing.

"These two people, you have to pay attention to them in the game!"

Gao Han walked over and patted the two players on the wall, to the left and right of Zambrano.

David Cubillo at the heart of midfield, and the team's striker, Javier del Pino!

The players of the China City team also showed solemn expressions one by one.

The 22-year-old has played in La Liga for two seasons and is a solid midfielder in the middle of the main midfield, making him Atletico Madrid's most promising midfielder.

As for Javier del Pino, that's not to mention, the striker talent that Atletico Madrid values the most.

Although many fans and media like to see Pinault as the idol of Atletico Madrid's first team and the successor of Prince Kiko, in fact, although they are both high school forwards and have similar tactical roles in the team, they are not similar.

Kico's feet are finer, and Pinault is rougher.

"According to the information I have gathered, after the relegation of Atletico Madrid, not only the first team has lost a lot of talent, but even the second team has also lost a lot of talent, and last season's main lineup, only David Kubilo and Pino remained. ”

Gao Han's intelligence came directly from Matayana, and there must be no mistake.

From Atletico Madrid's focus on keeping these two players, it is not difficult to see the strength of these two young players.

"Atletico Madrid's style of play, from the first team to the youth team, is very dependent on high strikers, so Pino's role in Atletico Madrid's second team is very important, whether it is to carry the ball with his back to the pile, or to retreat, he is a vital part of Atletico Madrid's attacking tactics. ”

This is also the usual way of playing at Atletico Madrid.

From Kiko, Penev, Vieri, to Hasselbaink, and then to Salva, the La Liga golden boot that has been heavily introduced this season, they are all taking this route.

So, to a certain extent, restraining Pino is equivalent to defusing most of Atletico Madrid's attacking threat.

When the players of the Chinese City team heard this, they immediately looked at the No. 3 captain, the central defender Tu Feiyuan.

The centre-back, who has shone in the last three rounds, played against Pinault in this game.

"The soil is round. ”

Gao Han walked over, patted him on the shoulder, and said solemnly: "It's up to you in this game!"

…………

…………

While Gao Han was in the home team's dressing room, solemnly explaining to the players all the details to pay attention to in the game, Zambrano was doing the same thing in the away team's dressing room.

However, unlike the solemn atmosphere in the home team's dressing room, the atmosphere in the away team's dressing room is relaxed.

"The strongest player in the China City team is their number three centre-back and also their captain. ”

After saying this, Zambrano looked at his proud disciple, the main center forward Pino.

"Javier, it shouldn't be difficult for you to get him, right?"

Pino's height reached 1.86 meters, which is considered tall among Spanish players.

But what is even more rare is that he is very physically strong, which makes him a sharp weapon on the court.

And he himself is already gearing up and eager to try.

Zambrano wants a cup title to get his first team manager off to a good start, and he also wants to win a top scorer and try to break into the first team.

"Don't worry, coach, I'll get him as soon as the game starts!" said Pinault with a proud face.

Zambrano smiled appreciatively.

Javier del Pino's physicality and strength, let alone in amateur competition, are very advantageous even in La Liga, where he was only 19 years old last season but has already scored 12 goals in La Liga.

I saw Zambrano slap his palm a few times, drawing everyone's attention to himself.

"The opponents in this game are not very strong, I personally watched their match against Sporting Gijón II, and it was a bit of a fluke to be able to win, but we are not Sporting Gijón II, nor Fuenlavrada, nor Getafe II, we are Atletico Madrid. ”

Zambrano's words cheered up all the players in the dressing room.

"I don't want to hide it from everyone, after this cup game, I will officially take over the first team. ”

The players in the locker room listened, and their eyes lit up.

Everyone's reaction was seen by Zambrano, and they couldn't help but feel a little proud.

"I also promise that when I get into the first team, I will draw a few players to the team at the right time, but ......"

Zambrano changed his words, "...... You've got to show a convincing performance to convince me!"

"If you can't even win an amateur team, then why are you in the first team?"

When the players heard this, they all jumped with joy.

The manager's intentions have been made clear.

If you want to follow me to the first team, you can, put on a good performance!

And the best performance is to help Atletico Madrid II win the invitational tournament!

All of a sudden, every player in the locker room became scrappy.

"There are so many people!"

In the best position of the chairman's stand at the Estadio d'Espino, Matayana looked around and found that the entire stadium was already overcrowded, and even outside the barbed wire fence at the entrance, it was crowded with fans who could not enter.

Based on Matayana's experience, these fans are certainly not chasing Atletico Madrid's second team.

He had followed Zambrano's team and knew that the youth team of the Sheets was not so attractive.

This group of fans are all running for the super dark horse, the Chinatown team.

"What do you think, how is this game?" Freckles Torres still sat next to him, looking a little solemn.

Matayana's eyes flashed with a hint of melancholy, and he shook his head, "It's hard to say. ”

After a brief moment of silence, he continued: "The key is how to freeze Pino, a high striker. ”

Many people say that Pino is like Kiko, but Matayana doesn't feel like it, because Pino is much rougher than Kiko.

If anything, Pino is more like Real Madrid's centre-forward Morientes.

Atletico Madrid likes to use a type of center forward, but players like Torres who are delicate, fast, and impactful, but have weak back ability, it is difficult to find a suitable position in the current Atletico Madrid team.

This is also the reason why Torres is obviously superior, but it has always been difficult to be promoted to the first team, or even the second team.

"For ordinary people, and even for ordinary amateur players, the body is considered strong, but in front of professional players, especially professional players like Pino, who rely on his body to eat, he does not have the slightest advantage. ”

Physicality is the first barrier to becoming a professional footballer.

There are a lot of players who are known for their skills, but they are thin and weak, and they are all relative to other professional players, but if you compare them to ordinary people, or amateur players, you really don't know how much stronger.

"If there is no way to freeze Pino in the game, then the China City team will still be unlucky in this battle. ”

Matayana analyzed without worry.

Since the invitational tournament has been played so far, he has been with the Chinatown team since the second round, and he is also very affectionate towards this team.

But he's also quite conflicted, because he, like Torres, is a fan of Atletico Madrid.

At this time, a group of people appeared in the chairman's stand.

"Hi Javier. ”

Matayana followed the prestige and was immediately taken aback.

"Hey, Paul, oh, Michelle, Enrique, why are you all here?"

Torres was also taken aback, with technical director Paul Futra, general manager Michel Angel Hill, and the vice chairman of the board of directors, Enrique Cerezo, who is in charge of finance, and the big three of Atletico Madrid all arrived.

Obediently, what kind of battle is this?

Matayana and Torres immediately exchanged polite greetings with the trio.

As Marca's chief correspondent, Matayana is very close to Atletico Madrid.

As for Torres, his professional contract is with Paul Futrley, and as one of the few young players in the youth team who can sign a professional contract, the management is certainly no stranger.

"What kind of wind is blowing you all over?" asked Matayana with a smile.

Since last season's president, Mr. Hill Sr., was arrested and imprisoned for embezzlement during his tenure as mayor of Marbella, Atletico Madrid's power has gradually shifted to Cerezo and Hill Jr.

Although the old Hill is now out of prison, his confidence has been frustrated and his health is not as good as before, and secondly, his image has indeed plummeted, so now the club's big and small things are basically handed over to Cerezo and Hill Jr.

"It's a city-wide battle, and even De la Morena has decided to broadcast the game live, and you say, as the hosts, can we not come?" said Cerezo, who is in his early fifties, laughed.

"De la Morena wants to play a live commentary on Radio Serre?" Matayana was taken aback again.

This is La Liga, or La Liga.

Although it is only a radio station, the title of de la Morena, the first person in the Spanish media, is not fake.

Little Hill also kept laughing and said, "Yes, he's debugging the equipment on the other side." ”

Matayana smiled wryly.

Surely de la Morena will not come running to broadcast the match live for no reason, it must have been called for by the audience.

The dark horse of the China City team is now getting more and more attention.

This is a good thing, but it is also a bad thing.

The advantage is that in the case of attracting attention from all walks of life, if the Chinese city team can continue to be black, it will be of great benefit to Gao Han and the Chinese city team.

But in case, if this dark horse can't move at any time, or even has a big rout, then ......

Thinking of this, Matayana sighed helplessly and shook his head.

You've got to hold on, Gao Han!

Victory or defeat is here!
