Chapter 391: The Most Critical Battle

"We were really lucky to meet Real Madrid in the final!"

Gao Bo smiled at the post-match press conference.

Since Mourinho has been complaining that Atletico Madrid's schedule in the Copa del Rey is too "easy" recently, when Gao Bo said this, many media at the scene laughed out loud.

The relationship between the Chinese and Mourinho seems to be getting worse.

In general, Gao Bo in Spain is very much in line with the Spanish imagination of the Chinese.

Compared to the aggressive Mourinho, Gao Bo is much more gentle.

"He is a real Chinese!"

This is a comment on Gao Bo by a certain media.

When Gao Bo saw such a comment, he was really a little powerless to complain.

It's like if someone says Jose Mourinho is "a real Portuguese", who can say what a Portuguese should be like?

China has a population of nearly 1.4 billion!

And these Spaniards rely on stereotypes to vividly imagine what a Chinese looks like.

Spain is the westernmost part of the Eurasian continent, while China is the easternmost point, and the two sides need to cross the Eurasian continent, which stretches for tens of thousands of miles, through Europe, the Arab world, and the Middle East, to reach the westernmost part of China.

For the Spaniards, China was so far away from them that all the Chinese could only condense into an imagination in the minds of these Latins.

Gao Bo, on the other hand, is now the most famous Chinese in Spain – after the weekly game, you can always see comments about Gao Bo in the media.

So far, most Spaniards have a good image of Gao Bo, after all, compared to Mourinho, the Chinese is too aggressive.

That's why when Gao Bo took the initiative to attack Real Madrid after the game, these reporters let out such laughter.

Mourinho's ability to cause trouble is really first-class, and even the "honest" Chinese Mr. Gao Bo was provoked by him.

......

"If he really thinks so, I don't mind sobering him up!"

Mourinho only learned about Gobo's remarks after media reports the next day.

Naturally, Mourinho also has to fight back hard.

However, his riback did not get a response from Gao Bo.

For Gao Bo, a 5-0 in the first leg was enough.

"We speak with our records!!"

If you talk about the records of the two sides, then Gao Bo is naturally far ahead - Mourinho and Gao Bo have only met once, in the first leg of the league this season, and the result is, of course, Atletico Madrid humiliating Mourinho 5-0 away.

"I've won two Champions Leagues!"

When it comes to this, Mourinho's stress response is to use his past results as his talisman.

The war of words between the two sides in the media has made the Spanish media very enjoyable, this season's La Liga is too interesting, in addition to Real Madrid and Barcelona's two-person turn, Atletico Madrid actually joined in, stirring up the stagnant water that has not changed for several years in La Liga.

Of course, Gao Bo didn't have the time and energy to focus on the quarrel with Mourinho!

Because after the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey, for Atletico Madrid, there is only the league schedule left - the final of the Copa del Rey is played in April, when the league is already coming to an end!

Atletico Madrid can focus on the league during this time, and their rivals Real Madrid and Barcelona have to make efforts in the Champions League, after the start of February, the Champions League knockout matches are about to start one after another, and Real Madrid and Barcelona of course are also successfully qualified from the group, Barcelona was drawn to Arsenal, Real Madrid was drawn to Lyon, are not easy opponents, therefore, for Atletico Madrid, which only needs to focus on the league, this is a good opportunity to expand the point difference- Real Madrid or Barcelona could lose points in the league because they were distracted from the Champions League!

Of course, losing points by rivals is just a surprise for Atletico Madrid, and if you want to win the league this season, the real key is your own performance!

Especially against strong teams!

And now, all the energy of Atletico Madrid is focused on the next round of the league!

February 6th, the 22nd round of the league!

Atletico Madrid will be away from home to Barcelona !!

Not to mention that this is a direct conversation between the top team and the second-placed team, the significance of this game for both sides alone is enough to attract everyone's attention.

For Barcelona, this game is really significant. Barcelona have lost to Atletico Madrid three times this season, and if they lose this game again, Barcelona will be beaten by the same opponent four times in one season!

This is undoubtedly a great humiliation for Barcelona, which is currently in its prime!

And it is impossible to get over the face, this game is actually a game that Barcelona must not lose!

Since Atletico Madrid was held to a draw by Athletic Bilbao in the last round of the league, Barcelona took the opportunity to recover the point difference, and now Barcelona is only four points behind Atletico Madrid! If they can win this home game, Barcelona will have cut the gap to one point!

The defending champions will be back on their toes at the top of the table, and with a dozen rounds of league games remaining, a one-point difference means that if Atletico Madrid make a mistake, Barcelona will be able to overtake them in no time!

Once Barcelona surpasses the points, it will be difficult for Atletico Madrid to catch them back.

Of course, it's all based on Barcelona being able to win in this round of the league.

For Atletico Madrid, winning Barcelona at Camp Nou will also be the most crucial battle on their way to the league title!

In Gao Bo's season plan, the one marked as the most important thing is that there are only three games left in this season!

Round 22 of the league away to Barcelona!

Round 29 of the league at home to Real Madrid!

Copa del Rey final against Real Madrid!!

These three races will be the three most important battles of the upcoming schedule!

If they can win their first two league games, Atletico Madrid will never let the league title fall out of their hands.

Needless to say, the Copa del Rey match.

This is a tournament that directly decides a championship trophy! Naturally, this game will have to be dealt with with with with all its might!

Three games! Decide on the specific achievements of the season!

Before leaving for Barcelona, Gao Bo marked these three games and put them on his desk!

Win these three battles, and this season's La Liga war will end with a big victory for Atletico Madrid!

Gao Bo stood up from his desk, and the notebook he held in his hand was densely filled with tactical details about the away game against Barcelona.

Although it has been three kills against Barcelona, when facing this opponent, Gao Bo never dared to take it lightly!

The players have assembled at the training base.

They will board a bus at the training base and head to the airport.

In Barcelona, another Atletico Madrid bus is already waiting at Barcelona airport.

Gao Bo walked out and looked at his players, he coughed lightly, and then waved his hand.

"Let's go!"

Then the first one got on the bus, and the other players rushed in!

Atletico Madrid embark on their journey to Barcelona, where they will have one of the most crucial battles of the season!

They set foot at Camp Nou for the second time this season!

They also want to be able to beat their opponents a second time!

The engine roared as the bus slowly pulled out of the Espino training base.

On both sides of the road, Atletico Madrid fans waved flags to see off their warriors!
