"We finally saw a wonderful, normal goal! The previous two goals had a certain element of luck, and Atletico's attack was still so good! Under Dick's leadership, the team is progressing at an unbelievable pace, and they are now ahead of Bayer Leverkusen and have already touched the trophy with one hand! ”

When referee Corina blew the whistle at the end of the first half, ESPN's commentator also praised Atletico Madrid's performance, after all, the goal just now was so beautiful, not an attack from the side, but a forced attack from the middle, relying on the tacit cooperation of two players to tear apart Leverkusen's defense! Jardel's final shot was not an empty goal, but it was almost the same as facing an empty goal, and it was his eighth goal in the Champions League this season, behind only Manchester United's goalscorer Ruud van Nistelrooy with ten goals!

The Atletico players ran off the pitch excitedly, and Dick stood on the sidelines and high-fived the players one by one, such a first half really made Dick feel very happy, if it wasn't very happy, he wouldn't have made such a move.

Dick was also excited...... But it's no wonder that such a first half is really enough to make all managers excited and proud! Now they are leading in the first half! As long as they can equalize Bayer Leverkusen's goals in the second half, then they will be the champions of the Champions League! In this battle of dark horses, become the blackest dark horse! ”

Dick's smile lasted until he entered the locker room, but he quickly straightened his face when he entered the locker room.

'I'm very happy that you guys did that in the first half...... But I ask you to remember that the first half was just the first half! Taking the lead in the first half doesn't mean we can win at the end, it's just that we have a little bit more of an advantage than the other side! We have to be careful of Bayer Leverkusen's attack, they pressed us in the first half, and if they have a strong centre-forward, it may be us who are behind! But we don't have to worry too much about anything, because we're pretty good! Remember, attack, take them out with offense! Don't leave too much to chance, because Bayer Leverkusen is not without such a centre-forward, at least they have an experienced Kirsten and a young Berbatov! These strikers are quite top-notch, and Topmueller is likely to put them all on the pitch in the second half, so we can't expect to take them out with defense, we have to attack! Even if we defendically do well, we can miss a goal or two, but if we can press them down offensively, our defence will be less tested and we may be able to take more leads! Do you understand? I'm not saying you can't defend it, but we're going to take it safer! What's a safer approach? That's how we use more goals to define our advantage, even if we make one or two mistakes at the back and let them take one or two chances, we can't afford to lose our advantage! Offensive! Atletico's foundation is attack, and we have the best attackers! From the side, from the middle, keep tearing through their defenses and achieve the ultimate victory! ”

Dick's words in the locker room proved his consistent style, that is, to use the offense to strangle the bud of defeat in the cradle, to take a sufficient lead, and then there is no big deal with any small problems, in the face of absolute superiority, a little negligence can be forgiven!

And Leverkusen doesn't seem to have any intention of being restrained.

"Our season was supposed to be a perfect season...... But for some reason we lost the league, we lost the German Cup, and the Champions Cup was our last honour of the season! If we lose this game again, we will have three runners-up in one season for the first time ever! It's not some glory, it's a shame! Because of our stupidity to get such a title, we will always be ridiculed by others, and we will always be mentioned: 'Look, that's the Bayer Leverkusen who didn't think much of it wanted to win the treble and ended up with three runners-up!' 'At any time, we will be used by other coaches as a bad example to warn their players not to relax!' Do you want that? ”

Topmüller's roar echoed in the dressing room, while Bayer Leverkusen's players replied with a furious roar: "No! ”

"Then go and win this championship! Prove to everyone with the Champions Cup that we didn't have problems with our strength before, but because we weren't lucky enough! We have the ability to win any championship! Attack, only offense! We must use offense to solve the problem, even if we die on the way to the charge, and do not be killed by others from behind without resistance on the way to rout! Bayer Leverkusen doesn't have any glorious traditions, but for our group of players, we are the team that Bayern Munich fears the most in the Bundesliga! So they're trying to tear down our team! Such a powerful Bayer Leverkusen will not appear again! So, while this mighty Bayer Leverkusen team is still around, we have to prove to everyone with a title that we have come! We have no regrets! We are the strongest and the most brilliant Bayer Leverkusen! ”

Topmüller's roar inspired Leverkusen's greatest fighting spirit, everyone doesn't want them to be a joke, they don't want them to lose the last title, this Leverkusen team may soon be disintegrated, such as Ballack will soon move to Bayern, but until then, they don't want to have regrets before such a strong team disintegrates!

'In the second half we came on with Berbatov, for Basturk. We need impact in the box now, and Basturk's departure will weaken our attack in the middle of the midfield, so if you want to make up for that, Ballack! Topmuller finally said to Barak.

"Leave it to me! No matter how difficult the task is, I will do my best to complete it! With a gritty glint on Barak's sculptural face, he nodded heavily, perhaps it would be difficult to create chances against Baraja's close defense and Makelele's fill-in, but he wasn't afraid, because physically, he was better than both!

In front of Barak, there is no problem that cannot be solved!

The young Bulgarian striker, on the other hand, was full of hope and played in the Champions League final...... This was something he hadn't thought about before! You must know that there is also an experienced Kirsten on the bench! He really didn't expect to come in with himself at this time!

"I know you're tech-oriented." Topmuller patted Berbatov on the shoulder: "But don't forget that you also have a tall body!" Fight them in the box! Then create space for your teammates! To win this game, we also need your efforts! ”

"Hand-to-hand combat with opposing defenders?" Berbatov looked at his clean jersey with some embarrassment - that wasn't a chic way to play......

Of course, Berbatov is still only a substitute at Bayer Leverkusen, and he certainly has no right to bargain, so he gritted his teeth - and fought! Even if it's hand-to-hand combat, what's there to be afraid of? Although the two central defenders on the opposite side are indeed very strong, they are simply black and white!

But...... Those two guys are really strong!

******************************************

"The second half is about to start! The players on both sides are now ready to play! Bayer Leverkusen made a substitution, with young Bulgarian centre-forward Dimitar Berbatov coming on for Turkish midfielder Basturk! Basturk's performance in the first half was not very good, although the attention of the Atletico midfielders was more focused on Ballack, but his small size did not give him many opportunities to get the ball, which made his performance not very good. However, Topmuller replaced him probably not only because he did not perform well, but because Leverkusen needs impact in the penalty area, Neuville is very good, but he is a dexterous striker, Leverkusen's penalty area lacks a center forward, if there is a center like Jadel, I am afraid that Leverkusen has already scored a goal when he was dominant in the first half! But it's not too late! Berbatov is also a center forward with excellent impact and technique, and he is young enough and has excellent physical fitness, which is a very good substitution! ”

"Replace Basturk, replace Berbatov...... Such a substitution can be regarded as the right medicine, but in terms of pressing and control in the midfield, Leverkusen's midfield has no advantage, and now there are only four people left, can it still be compared with Atletico Madrid's top midfielder? You must know that Atletico Madrid is a team that does not fall behind when facing giants such as Manchester United, Real Madrid and Bayern in the midfield confrontation! ”

"Topmuller is putting the treasure on Barak's body, although Barak is very strong and trustworthy, but at this time, Topmuller is not afraid that Baraja will be crushed because of this? If you can bear it next, it's okay, if you can't bear it, under the turn of attacks in the Atletico midfield, maybe Leverkusen's midfield will collapse immediately! In that case, even if there are more strikers in the front, it won't make a difference......"

When the commentators expressed their opinions, Dick frowned slightly, of course he could see the intention of Topmüller's substitution, and he also knew the advantages and disadvantages of this substitution, but as others said, Leverkusen's biggest reliance now is Ballack! His outstanding performance was more than enough to make up for the embarrassment of Bayer Leverkusen with one less midfielder! Dick knows how unfortunate Ballack's performance has been this season, and this season has been the best of Ballack's career as a top superstar!

"In that case, I'm afraid we're a little dangerous...... But that's okay, you know, our players are very good too! It's a big deal to fight for goals, see who scores more, than this, we are not afraid of anyone! ”

Dick said a little ruthlessly in his heart, in fact, he is a little scared of the kind of superstar who can go crazy, although they usually look not much better than ordinary players, and they also have their own weaknesses to take advantage of, but when they start crazy, a flash of inspiration can solve a game!

Ballack is undoubtedly such a superstar, and with his ungodly form this season, he often has this kind of explosive attack, but as long as the Atletico players can score more goals, they can make his explosion meaningless to the maximum!
