yes, whose home is this!

Many commentators watched this scene in amazement!

With the appearance of Gao Bo, this stadium is completely boiling!!

The fans cheered and applauded!

"The fans of Atletico Madrid are cheering and applauding with warm cheers and applause to greet the most successful manager in the history of the team, Gao Bo!"

"Yes, even though he has only coached Atletico Madrid for two years, he has brought two league titles, two Copa del Rey titles, and a Champions League title!! With the addition of a Super Cup title, Gao Bo has won six important championship trophies for the team, which also makes him the manager who has won the most titles for Atletico Madrid in the history of the team, as many as the legendary coach Aragonés in the history of Atletico Madrid, and more importantly, these six championship trophies also include a Champions League trophy that Atletico Madrid has never touched!! Atletico Madrid, in the hands of Gao Bo, has walked out of the perennial haze, and since then it has been at the top! ”

The narrator said.

And Gao Bo, who walked out of the court, was actually taken aback by the battle, and then he reacted.

It seems that the stadium is still welcoming to itself.

Gao Bo raised his hand and walked to the dugout while applauding the fans around him who were cheering him on.

Simeone, who was waiting next to the dugout, had a complicated expression.

To be honest, he was a little envious.

Although he has won the support of the fans now, he has more to do if he wants to make the fans crazy like he is now.

He offered to reach out.

"Looks like you're still very welcome here, Gao!"

Simeone said.

"If we take a victory away from here, they're afraid they won't be like this."

Gao Bo smiled and shook his head.

"Then you might be disappointed, they will be happier after the game than they are now."

Although both managers were smiling, they did not show weakness at all!

Naturally, Gao Bo could not be merciful because of the enthusiasm of the Atletico Madrid fans for him.

And Simone, needless to say!

In the face of Gao Bo's team, Simeone is actually more combative!

Before the game, he had completely incited the fighting ** of the Atletico Madrid players!!

Argentine tough guy, don't want to live in the shadow of others all the time!

And if you want to get rid of Gao Bo's shadow, the best way, in addition to surpassing Gao Bo in results, is to directly defeat Gao Bo's team!

Beat Manchester City!!

This is almost something that Simeone has been thinking about since the Champions League draw came out!

For this reason, he even asked the team to prepare for this game two or three weeks in advance!

The organization of the defense!!

Tough pressing!!

Needless to say, these are of course.

On top of that, Simeone also made the team practice set-pieces!

If Simeone had any trick up his sleeve against Manchester City, it was set-pieces.

In Simeone's view, in the confrontation between the two sides, the overall strength of Atletico Madrid is at a disadvantage, and the opponent is a terrifying team that has won 30 consecutive victories in the Premier League.

In the face of such a team, the only way is to strengthen the defense of the midfield, with tough defense, close-up, suffocating pressing, crazy running, to limit Manchester City's attack!

This was the case when Gao Bo was in charge of Atletico Madrid.

And Simeone is just Xiao Gui Cao Cheng, or rather, more emphasis on running and pressing!

Even, Simeone asked his players to be bigger in the action of the game!

Moreover, when Gao Bo was at Atletico Madrid, he emphasized physical fitness and running, which also made it easy for Simeone to complete his vision on this basis.

For Simeone, taking over Gao Bo's team is simply a comfortable thing.

In fact, when Gao Bo designed tactics for Atletico Madrid, he also borrowed Simeone's ideas.

Therefore, Atletico Madrid, under Simeone's hands, almost quickly regained its combat effectiveness!

The current Atletico Madrid is no longer the pseudo-giant that has been mixed in La Liga all the year round, they have long completed the Phoenix Nirvana and become an important team that cannot be ignored in La Liga!

Their strength, even in the whole of Europe, is a top-notch existence!

At this time, near the center circle, the captains of the two teams, Kompany and Gabi, were standing there, carrying out the ceremony of picking sides.

The two exchanged team flags with each other, but did not make any exchanges.

Soon, the edge picking ceremony was over, with Manchester City being given the right to kick off, while Atletico Madrid was given the right to pick the edge.

Gabi pointed to the opposite side, where City had been warming up and which was also the side of the goal that the City players now occupy.

Although the two sides wanted to swap places, Gabi did the same.

Because, behind this goal, is a gathering place for die-hard fans of Atletico Madrid.

He specifically chose the goal in this position, in fact, the purpose is also obvious.

At least in the first half, they have to defend solidly, maybe more balls, in this half!

With the full support of the fans, maybe the players of Atletico Madrid will be able to better complete the defensive task in the first half!!

As the players from both sides swapped places, the players took their positions.

Eden Hazard stands in the centre circle, ready to kick off!

In the stands at the Calderón Stadium, the voices of the fans are much quieter than before.

Everyone held their breath and waited for the game to begin!

Italian referee Rocchi raised his wrist while also communicating with several of his aides through a headset.

It's game time!

Rocky blew the whistle for the start of the game!

Meanwhile!

The stands also cheered!!

"Game on!! The race is on1! ”

In the fierce cheers, the referees from all walks of life also began their own commentary work!!

"In the first leg of the Champions League quarter-finals, Atletico Madrid started at home to Manchester City!! The two sides will fight for a place in the semi-finals of the Champions League!! ”

In China, Duan Xuan's voice was also transmitted to thousands of households through the screen of CCTV's sports channel, and to the ears of all the fans who watched the game on TV!

"Let's take a look at the starting lists of the two sides first, in this game, the two teams can be said to be the main force!"
