Chapter 155: Don't play exciting games

Updated: 2013-04-22

Round 32 of the league. [No pop-ups. 】

It is obvious that both Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid have basically reached the point of the end of the crossbow, in this round of the league, Atletico Madrid at home defeated Villarreal 2-1, they once fell behind in the game, and finally relied on Capdevilla's hanging shot in the corner of the penalty area and an own goal from the opposing defender to win hard, Real Madrid's performance was also not much better, they played at home against Osasuna, the score was maintained 1-1 until the 87th minute, It was only with a direct free kick from Figo that he scored three points......

With six league games remaining, Atletico and Real Madrid are like two scarred giants, they have now left the rest of their rivals, and third-placed Deportivo La Coruna are also nine points away from Real Madrid, and even eleven points behind Atletico Madrid, meaning they are basically unable to win the league title, and after three years of losing the league title this season, they will finally return to Madrid again - just to see if it belongs to Atletico or Real Madrid......

"It must belong to us." Dick said again in the post-match press conference, because in midweek, Real Madrid will welcome Bayern Munich at home and reach the semi-finals of the Champions Cup, such a game that no team will give up, let alone Real Madrid, who have already won the Champions Cup eight times.

Real Madrid will be doing their best to win this game, while Real Madrid, who are also not very thick on the bench, will certainly suffer in the league at the weekend when they travel to face Celta Vigo at the weekend, which is a real real Madrid host.

In last season's Champions Cup, Real Madrid also met Bayern in the Champions Cup, in those two games, Real Madrid was not favored, because in the previous Champions Cup group stage, Real Madrid and Bayern were in the same group, they were killed by Bayern and not counted, they also conceded four goals in each game, it can be said that they were beaten without temper, but in the semi-finals, relying on Anelka's excellent performance, they eliminated Bayern, so that they had their eighth Champions Cup championship!

This time in the Champions Cup semi-finals again met the old rival Bayern, Real Madrid will naturally not relax, Bosque also sent all the main force in the game, but this time luck is not on the side of Real Madrid, although Real Madrid has an advantage on the field, but there is no way to take the door guarded by Kahn, Bayern has adopted excellent defensive tactics, and the Brazilian goalscorer Elber, who returned from injury in time, seized an opportunity that was not a chance, and he broke Casillas's ten fingers with a long-range shot in the second half, Bayern took a 1-0 victory from the Bernabeu Stadium, and Real Madrid, who lost at home, fell into a rather difficult situation, but they were not without opportunities, because of the focus on defense, Bayern's midfield core Effenberg received a yellow card and was suspended, and they will lose the tiger at home in the second leg, which is also a good opportunity for Real Madrid.

Dick watched the game in its entirety – of course, he disguised himself and covered his face at the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, and left the stadium early before the game was over – otherwise the Real Madrid fans, who were annoyed by the defeat, would have done something less indecent to Dick if they had been recognized by the Real Madrid fans......

"Real Madrid are now at the end of their power...... They may not be able to win the next round. Let's not think about Real Madrid now, it's the right thing to do if we try to win the next games one game at a time. Dick said to Marina.

Next up for Atletico Madrid is Zaragoza – the team that finished in the top four last season have struggled this season and are now relatively close to the relegation zone, so it is not a good situation to meet a wolf-like Atletico side at this time.

Although the Zaragoza players, who are in danger of relegation, will certainly show their full fighting spirit in the tournament due to the team's lack of fighting spirit due to the team's qualification for the Champions League, the recent weekly matches have allowed the Atletico players to recover very well, and even at home, Zaragoza will not have many chances.

And so it is.

Atletico Madrid's match against Zaragoza was played on Saturday, a day before Real Madrid's game - Atletico Madrid did not let the Real Madrid fans who followed the game see what they wanted to see, although their top scorer Jadel was stared at by the opponent in the game, but substitute Cruz solved all the problems, he scored two goals after coming on in the second half, Vicente added the icing on the cake, Atletico Madrid beat Zaragoza 3-1 away, temporarily leading Real Madrid by five points with a game in hand!

Bosque is in a difficult situation at this point - he can't afford to give up the Champions League, but the difference of five points in the league is enough to cause headaches, and if he can't win Celta, it will be almost impossible to catch up with the in-form Atletico Madrid with only five games left in the league......

There is still a huge hope of winning against Celta, after all, the difference of two points is not troublesome, but if too much energy is consumed on Celta, even if Effenberg is suspended, it will be difficult for Real Madrid to get benefits from Bayern......

Now Bosque is indeed in a dilemma, neither side is without a chance, take both? Real Madrid may not have the ability to give up one of them now? But which is better to give up? Real Madrid have not won the league title for three seasons, and the Champions League is likely to win the eighth, so the choice is indeed too difficult.

In this case, Bosque can only trust the quality of the substitutes.

In this game, he hid Figo and sent Guti, hoping to achieve a state of hard hands through such adjustments - but some things are not forced, Atletico Madrid can go hand in hand this season, in addition to Dick's players playing better, Dick has been constantly using rotation to let the main players get more rest time from the beginning is also a very important factor, of course, the more important factor is that the intensity of the Champions Cup and the intensity of the League Cup are two grades, Because of Dick's excellent command, Atletico basically did not spark in both legs during the knockout round, allowing them to advance relatively smoothly in the UEFA Cup.

Even so, Atletico Madrid has been dragged almost before, if it weren't for the fact that these weeks have basically been played once a week, I'm afraid Atletico Madrid would not have been able to force Real Madrid to this point.

Atletico survived the previous dense schedule and strong opponents, but this time Real Madrid were not able to survive.

In this game, Real Madrid were suppressed by a frantic Celta de vigo throughout the game, and Juanfrán's goal in the eighth minute sent a huge cheer from the Atletico fans who were watching the game, and then in the 25th minute, when Gustavo extended the lead to 2-0, the Atletico fans cheered again......

When Jessouri scored Celta's third goal of the game in the 90th minute of the game, half of Madrid City was sighing in pain, while the other half of Madrid City was cheering!

Real Madrid suffered a 3-0 defeat away to Celta! This means that Atletico's five-point advantage is starting to be determined, and they only need to pick up 10 points in the remaining five rounds to claim the league title this season!

Such a big advantage!

No one thought that in this stalemate situation, it was not Atletico Madrid who looked younger, but the more experienced Real Madrid!

At this time, everyone realized that they seemed to ignore one point, that is, although Real Madrid seems to have a better championship record than Atletico Madrid, but their league championship dates back to nearly four years ago, and Atletico Madrid is only a gap of one year more than Real Madrid!

In the 96-97 season, Capello's team led by Real Madrid won the championship, who else is still in the Real Madrid team? It's not much, it's none other than Robert? Carlos, Hierro, Guti, Raul and a few others, and now in the main force of Real Madrid, Elguera, Karanka, Campo, Salgado, Morientes, Figo and others have not yet joined Real Madrid, and Casillas is still in the youth team......

So in fact, Real Madrid's players don't have a lot of experience in winning the championship, among these players, except for Figo, other players have no experience in winning the league......

"Let's not relax next! Take the game that was played ahead of me! Then go to the League Cup with an eight-point advantage! This game is *** made me nervous! The mistake in that game against Barcelona, don't do it again! Real Madrid gave us a lot of chances, and if we all give up, then we can't blame anyone for losing the title! Go ahead and beat Osasuna, a relegation team and they can't stop us! Kill them and go to Germany with an eight-point advantage! ”

With the momentum of leading by five points, Dick tried every means to boost the morale of the team, although it was a game in advance, but if the lead could be extended to eight points, it would be an almost desperate lead, Dick knew that Real Madrid was now in trouble, if they couldn't beat the opponent to death with a stick, then when they came to their senses, Atletico Madrid had not established enough advantage, it would be Atletico Madrid, because in terms of experience, Atletico Madrid is indeed inferior to Real Madrid……

To mentally hit the opponent in the same way, Dick didn't want to come to a last-minute final round to win the championship, which was exciting, but not stable enough!

Dick can't afford to play such an exciting game now!

Under Dick's almost frenzied pressure, Atletico Madrid's players also mustered up the courage to have an excellent performance in the early round of the league, and Torres's goal in the 65th minute threw the entire Calderón Stadium into an incomparably loud cheer!

"No one can stop us from winning our 10th league title!" Countless Atletico Madrid fans are shouting frantically, although Real Madrid can still get up to fifteen points in the remaining games, which means that Atletico Madrid must get at least seven points in the remaining four rounds of the league to ensure that they can win the championship, but Atletico Madrid fans are extremely convinced that they will be able to win the league championship, because the current Atletico Madrid is really strong!

"We are strong. There's nothing to lose the league title to, and it's not very difficult for us to get seven points from the next four league games, and with Real Madrid's current form, they may not be able to win all five league games...... Now I'm already thinking about the UEFA Cup final. Dick said with a smile after the game.
