Every time the results of the Champions League draw are released, a few families are happy and a few are worried. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Soon, conspiracy theories were emerging.

Anyway, the rules are there, and no matter who is drawn, it is impossible to make all teams happy.

However, the 16 teams participating in the second phase of the group stage have all begun to seize the time to prepare.

In the intensive schedule of the first group stage, Atletico Madrid's fitness and condition were well adjusted, and the team's rotation was also orderly, so the team decided to continue to stick with it after summing up the experience.

In between the two phases of the group stage, there was a total of more than two weeks, and Gao Han rotated in the league, handing over the players to the physical trainer Buenaventura for special training in batches to prepare for the next second phase of the schedule.

However, Atletico Madrid still defeated Espanyol and Real Betis 2-1 away and 1-0 at home, respectively, and soon ushered in the first game of the second group stage.

Home to Roma!

Fabio Capello's side have not fared well in Serie A this season, having just lost 3-0 to Parma in the league.

At present, there are 11 rounds of Serie A, and Roma has four wins, four draws and three losses, scoring 21 goals and conceding 19 goals, ranking only ninth in the league.

But in the Champions League, Capello's team's performance was a bit laughable.

In the group stage, with two wins, three draws and one loss, he ranked second in the group after Real Madrid.

Interestingly, they scored just three goals, the third-lowest out of the 32 participating teams, just one more than Spartak Moscow and Genk, Belgium, who have lost all six of their games.

However, Fabio Capello's side have conceded just four goals in six group games, losing 3-0 to Real Madrid in the first round and conceding only one in the remaining five rounds.

From this data, it is enough to see that Capello's team is a typical one-to-zero team.

But if Roma is underestimated because of this, then any team will pay the price, including Real Madrid.

The Galaxy Battleship is self-regarded as a strong attack, so after winning 3-0 away in the first round, the two sides contacted in the second leg, and wanted to eat Roma at the Bernabeu Stadium, but were beaten 1-0 by Capello's team.

With Real Madrid's previous experience, Gao Han did not dare to be careless.

In the face of Atletico Madrid, which is like a breakthrough and has won consecutive battles, Capello also does not dare to underestimate the enemy.

In order to better suppress Atletico Madrid's midfield, Capello adjusted the formation to four four-two.

That's the same formation they used when they beat Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu.

The goalkeeper is Antonioli, the backline is Candela, Samuel, Zebina and Panucci, the midfield is Delvicchio, Lima, Emerson and Cafu, and the double striker is Cassano and Totti.

Veteran Argentine centre-forward Baptista sat on the bench.

Not only that, but under Capello's careful arrangement, Roma also played a rush attack at the beginning.

After just three minutes, Roma seized on Marchena's side after a succession of passes from midfield, and crossed the left rib into the box, where Cassano fired low from close range.

Thankfully, Cech reacted quickly and saved the ball to save a goal.

But Roma's pre-emptive victory still surprised Atletico Madrid.

…………

"The team trained by Capello is not simple at all!"

Standing under the roof of the home team's coach's box at the Calderón Stadium in Madrid, Gao Han sighed softly.

A cloud of white smoke rose before his eyes.

It's the end of November, and it's starting to usher in the cold winter months, and it's raining in Madrid, the air is cold and damp, and the pitch is wet and slippery, which is quite bad for a pass-and-control team like Atletico Madrid.

The reason why Marchena couldn't seal the hole in his left rib in the first place just now was because he almost slipped and was half a beat slower.

"The rain came so suddenly, we were caught off guard, and they certainly weren't much better. Cantarero said.

Gao Han nodded, both teams were defenseless.

Even because of this sudden rain, many of the team's pre-game preparations were completely unusable.

But there are some things that can't be changed.

"Tell them that the opening attack is our specialty, don't lose to the opponent!" Gao Han smiled confidently.

"I want to see if he Capello really dares to play with me!"

Even, Gao Han wished that Rome would press it out and fight.

Cantarero was also accustomed to following Gao Han's orders, and immediately walked to the sidelines and spread his message to the court.

…………

…………

As the cold adjusted, on the pitch, Atletico Madrid began to put pressure on Roma.

Soon, Villa had a chance down the left and fired a long-range shot.

But the shot was angled too wide and was easily picked off by goalkeeper Antonioli and there was no threat at all.

Soon, still on the left side, after Villa forced the ball to break through unsuccessfully, he crossed to the middle, and after Samuel intercepted halfway, the ball fell at Kaka's feet.

As soon as the Brazilian midfielder got the ball, he directly sent a precise through ball into the penalty area.

Goalkeeper Antonioli made a decisive move, grabbed ahead of Torres and confiscated the ball.

Soon, however, Atletico Madrid organised another attack, with Dario Srna cutting forward and linking up with Torres to cross low from the right for Villa to quickly cut in.

Just as Villa was about to score, goalkeeper Antonioli flew to knock the ball out with a single fist and defused the crisis again.

A series of fierce attacks, although they failed to form a goal, helped Atletico Madrid regain control of the situation on the field.

Capello also did not dare to advance easily, as Gao Han expected, and began to defend his own half, intending to defend and counterattack.

But Gao Han is no longer the fledgling kid he was two years ago.

After two seasons of training, Gao Han Shendu took advantage of the trend on the court and achieved twice the result with half the effort.

So he immediately adjusted the team again, requiring the whole team to speed up, and at the same time used two four-star assault cards and offensive cards in the coaching system in a row, forming a combination card effect that improved by leaps and bounds to strengthen the offensive.

After this succession, Atletico Madrid began to put more pressure on Roma on the pitch.

Let the entire central and backfield of Rome be like a big enemy, everyone is trembling, and everyone is walking on thin ice, for fear of mistakes.

But sometimes the more nervous you are, the more likely you are to make mistakes.

In the 23rd minute, after a series of passes from Atletico Madrid, Kaka dribbled the ball into the Roma defence, attracting the attention of two Brazilian compatriots, Emerson and Lima, and suddenly distributed the ball to Deco, who was inserted behind.

Deco took the ball and once again gave a sharp through ball to the back of the defence.

This line of cooperation has been played before, and Roma is mentally prepared, Panucci blocked the line where the ball was running in time, and wanted to destroy the ball with a big foot.

Unexpectedly, Deco's straight ball with a strong spin, coupled with the wet and slippery grass, Panucci came in a hurry to clear the kick, but he didn't kick the right part, not only failed to clear the ball, but let himself stumble and slip to the ground.

Villa, who had already been ambushed, would miss such a godsend, quickly plugged in from behind, and caught up with the ball in the big penalty area.

But by this time, Roma's central defender Samuel had also caught up in place.

One!

As La Liga's leading scorer, Villa's scoring ability has always been feared, but he doesn't just score points.

Fast and sharp dribbling through is also Villa's forte.

I saw that Villa, with the blessing of the four-star assault card, chased the ball, first made a sharp stop, and then made a realistic feint, so that when Samuel thought he was going to make a cross, he suddenly changed to cut inside the middle, shook off Samuel, and rubbed a curling ball with his right foot.

With a strong spin, the ball turned in a strange arc and crashed into the top right corner of the goal!

Corner!

Antonioli can't reach it!

1 to 0!

The entire Stadio Olimpico fell silent, followed by the fury and roar of the Roma fans.

But on the pitch, the Villa and Atletico Madrid players were celebrating wildly.

Gao Han was also so excited that he clenched his fists and shouted on the sidelines.

Ahead!

"It's going to be a good game!" Cantarero breathed a sigh of relief.

The members of the coaching staff around him also nodded their heads.

Who's to say it isn't?

The biggest headache for Serie A teams is their defence, and this is especially true of Fabio Capello's Roma.

They were able to beat Real Madrid 1-0 at the Bernabeu Stadium thanks to their unbreakable defence.

Now, Atletico Madrid has a one-goal lead and has the initiative.

Now it's Capello's turn to have a headache.

"It's all to blame for the damn rain!" Gao Han smiled from ear to ear.

The same mistake Atletico Madrid had made just now, and Marchena almost slipped.

Even if that time hadn't been for Cech's efforts to keep the net in the back of the net at a crucial moment, I'm afraid the situation would have changed completely.

But there is a good saying, if you don't die in a great disaster, you will be blessed.

Roma failed to capitalise on their chances, so it was naturally Atletico Madrid's turn.

…………

…………

As it turned out, Capello did think about fighting back.

But that was already the second half.

Throughout the first half, after conceding the goal, Roma played more conservatively, mainly thinking about stabilizing the team's defense and blocking Atletico Madrid's attack, which made it difficult for the home team to invest in the attacking end.

But in the second half, the two sides fought more intensely.

Roma even played a very dangerous attack after the opening kick-off, especially in the 57th minute, when Roma combined Panucci and Cafu on the right, and after the Brazilian player crossed from the bottom, Totti chested the ball in the big box and volleyed it from close range.

But Cech, who was showing more and more solidity, made a divine save in the face of the close range of shots, saving Totti's shot from the back of the net, and then Del Vecchio's follow-up shot in front of goal was brilliantly denied by Carvalho.

After that, Gao Han immediately used the five-star defense card and confrontation card to stabilize the team's defense.

Roma have since missed an equaliser.

On the contrary, on the defensive side of their own side, after Atletico Madrid stabilized the situation, they repeatedly played very threatening attacks, threatening Antonioli's goal again and again.

But both teams fought very tenaciously, and neither allowed the opponent to take advantage of the opportunity easily.

In the end, the duel at the Calderón Stadium ended with Atletico Madrid with Villa's stunner.

Atletico Madrid won a victory! )
