Originally, when Diego Simeone heard from Javi Torres about Feng Quan's wonderful performance in practice matches, the idea of immediately putting Feng Quan into the team's main lineup and replacing Alda Turan as the starting left winger immediately came to mind.

However, after watching Alda Turan's brilliant performance in the first half against Sevilla, even if he acted decisively like Diego Simeone, he couldn't help but fall into the trouble of "happiness".

Alda Turan and Feng Quan are both very distinctive players, and no matter who is put on the bench, Diego Simeone is a little reluctant.

However, just as Diego Simeone was struggling with the troubles of "happiness", Sevilla FC equalised with a thunderous bomber two minutes after Diego Costa's goal.

At that time, Marin of the Sevilla team (Marko Marin) received a pass from a teammate on the side at the edge of the penalty area, and first made a gesture to break into the penalty area. When Atletico Madrid's Mario Suarez was drawn to him, Marin suddenly pushed the ball sideways into the open space outside the penalty area.

Immediately afterwards, Sevilla's Rakitic fired a direct shot into the top right corner of the Atletico Madrid goal.

It wasn't until the ball hit the net to stop the momentum of the forward rush and then fell into the net that goalkeeper Courtois didn't have time to make any savings.

In the end, both teams ended the first half with a score of 1-1.

…………

Despite not being able to maintain the lead until the end of the first half, Diego Simeone was a little disappointed. However, Diego Simeone still gave credit for the team's good performance in the first half.

Among them, Diego Costa, who scored a goal in the first half, and Alda Turan, who created many scoring opportunities, were praised by Diego Simeone.

'It's a bit of a shame not to be able to get back into the dressing room with the lead, but the performance in the first half is commendable. Diego Simeone pumped his fists in encouragement. "I'm sure that as long as we can keep the momentum going in the second half, we can take the first three points of the season from the Estadio Pizjuan."

After encouraging the players, Diego Simeone set up individual players for the second half of the game.

'Jorge [Koke], in the second half you have to be more aggressive in attacking. At the same time, if Diego [Costa] is running out of space up front, you can try to pass some overhead balls to him a little more. ”

'Alda, you did a good job in the first half. However, I hope that after you cut inside in the middle in the second half, you can play more with Felipe [Luiz] to make our attacking routine a little bit richer. ”

'Diego [Costa], you were very good at scoring in the first half. However, I hope that you can increase the range of movement a little bit in the second half and move closer to the flanks when attacking in position, so that you can open up some space for your teammates in the middle. ”

'Mario [Suarez], in the second half you have to pay more attention to Rakitic's long-range shot after the back row is inserted, I don't want to see our goal broken by the opponent's long-range shot twice in a row.

After completing the individual instructions for individual players, Diego Simeone reminded all players to play harder in the second half of the game, and at the same time to run more aggressively in attack, after all, only faster and more movement can better detect the gaps in the "enemy" defence. He then told his players to take the time to rest and recover as much energy as possible before the start of the second half.

With that done, Diego Simeone walked out of the players' lounge with assistant coach Herman Boggs and walked slowly towards the players' tunnel.

Shortly after he walked out of the break room, Herman Boggs' cell phone rang. Then he pulled his phone out of his pocket and looked at it as he walked.

After more than ten seconds, Hermann Boggs suddenly said with a look of surprise on his face: "Hey, Diego, look, this video seems to be an excerpt from the internal practice match this afternoon." Is this guy who pushed the ball into the empty goal after passing six people in a row, is it the Chinese kid we just signed in the summer? ”

Since the video played on Hermann-Boggs' phone was only seven or eight seconds long, and because it was probably taken temporarily with the phone, the clarity of the picture was not very satisfactory. But through the jerseys of the players on the pitch and the sponsor advertisements on the fence on the side of the training pitch, it is still possible to barely determine the source of the video, which is the Espino training base of Atletico Madrid.

Although Diego Simeone learned from Xavi Torres at the beginning of the first half that Feng Quan was playing in practice matches, pushing the empty net after passing six men in a row. However, when Diego Simeone saw the whole process of Feng Quan's goal with his own eyes, he still felt a lot of shock in his heart.

"That's right, this guy is our wind. Except for him, no player in this world can have such speed. Diego Simeone shook Herman Boggs' shoulder with surprise on his face and said, "Tell me, where did you find this video?" ”

"Uh...... Yes, old Ivan just sent it to me. After a pause, Hermann-Boggs continued: "Moreover, Ivan Sr. also told me that seeing this goal reminded him of the alien Ronaldo. ”

Hearing this, Diego Simeone watched the video of the wind breaking the goal of 6 people again.

After another dozen seconds, Diego Simeone returned the phone to Herman Boggs and said with a smile on his face: "Old Ivan is right. ”

Isn't it the most classic signature move of the alien's career to break through with the ball, the defense through the double attack, and the pendulum swing to shake the goalkeeper down and push the empty goal.

"Ask old Ivan in a moment if he has any other video material about this afternoon's practice match. If there is any, let him sort it out quickly, I hope to be able to see it tomorrow. ”

With that, Diego Simeone crossed his arms around his chest and looked thoughtful.

After a long time, a thought popped into Diego Simeone's mind: "Perhaps, let this Chinese kid try ......"
