Olympiacos defeated Atletico Madrid 3-2 in the first Champions League group game of the season, and Atletico Madrid actually lost a bit of a game because Atletico Madrid coach Simeone was still suspended in that game and did not have a command.

And Atletico Madrid players are not very comfortable playing without a manager.

Of course, if this scene were to be put to the present, I am afraid that this problem would not exist. Because after this period of adaptation, the Atletico Madrid players are used to how to play without the head coach on the spot.

Diego Simeone sent the strongest lineup for the purpose of this game, and made it clear to everyone that this game should be active from the beginning, and beat Olympiacos in the fastest and shortest time, leaving no suspense.

So in the ninth minute, Raul Garcia received a pass from Juanfran and opened the scoring for the team.

The next time belongs to Gao Zheng.

In the 38th minute, the team's left full-back Ansaldi crossed from the side, Gao Zheng shot directly in the penalty area without stopping, and the football penetrated the goal guarded by Olympiacos goalkeeper Roberto.

“GAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL！！！ High high !! Atletico Madrid 2:0! At Atletico Madrid's home stadium, this score means they can almost win this game! ”

Even though the first half was not over yet, no one felt that there was anything wrong with Jose Maria's words.

With Atletico Madrid's recent form, is it a difficult thing to win at home to Olympiacos?

If only there were all kinds of speculation before the game started, it would be normal. Now that the first half is almost over, Atletico Madrid has a two-goal lead, why is it more certain to guess before the game, right?

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again, in the 62nd minute, Alda Turan went straight to the stopper, Gao Zheng successfully countered offside, directly faced the attacking goalkeeper Roberto, pretended to shoot the football to the far corner, deceived Roberto to the ground, buckled the football to the left, and then bypassed the goalkeeper and easily pushed the empty goal.

"Gao Zheng is a good ball! It's really cool to get past the goalkeeper and then play! It's 3:0! Atletico Madrid have a three-goal lead at home! ”

Gao Zheng, who scored twice, had already made the Calderón Stadium crazy for him, and the Atletico Madrid fans chanted Gao Zheng's name.

However, Gao Zheng's performance was not over, and after three minutes of his brace, in the 65th minute of the match, he drew a perfect end to his excellent performance with a long-range shot from the edge of the penalty area.

"Hat-trick!! High! He scored a hat-trick! Oh!! Today's high state is really good to explode! Olympiacos' goal was blown up directly by him, and he can be unscrupulous near the Olympiacos penalty area and do whatever he wants!! "It's such an exaggeration, as soon as you hear it, you know it's Ray Hudson of GOLTV.

'It was his second hat-trick in the Champions League – the first of which he ......scored against his current club last season at Sampdoria

In the end, the score of this game was 4:0, and Atletico Madrid won the opponent at home without any suspense.

The win in this game marked their advance from the group.

Twelve points in five battles.

At the same time, on the other side, Juventus' away game against Malmo also came to an end, and it was not until the 88th minute that Tevez scored the goal to seal the victory for Juventus, changing the score to 2:0, to the relief of all Juventus fans.

With a win over Malmo, Juventus finished second in the group with nine points from five group games, surpassing Olympiacos, who had six points.

As long as they don't lose at home to Atletico Madrid in the final round of the group stage, they can join Atletico Madrid in qualifying. And if they can beat Atletico Madrid and have a goal difference of more than one, they can even surpass Atletico Madrid to top the group.

When you think about it, it won't seem to be very difficult to be Juventus' home stadium.

But Gao Zheng used this hat-trick to warn all Juventus supporters in advance - don't think too beautiful.

※※※

Back in the league, Atletico Madrid won the next two league games and a Copa del Rey match, beating Deportivo La Coruna 2-0 at home and Elche 2-0 away, as well as the first leg of the fourth round of the Copa del Rey, where Atletico Madrid beat Spanish League side Ospitalette 3-0 away.

And Gao Zheng has scored in all three games - one in each game.

With his goals in two league games, he has tally scored 12 goals in the league this season.

However, in the scorer list, the gap between him and Cristiano Ronaldo has not only not been shortened, but has also been widened.

In fact, Gao Zheng was in very good form during this time, scoring in six consecutive rounds of the league, and Ronaldo's goal was interrupted in the thirteenth round, but who made him score a hat trick in the fourteenth round of the league that just ended?

Now he's eleven goals behind Ronaldo......

Of course, this season's Cristiano Ronaldo is a perverted monster, and no one in La Liga can compare to him.

In fact, Gao Zheng's condition is so good that Simeone is a little reluctant to let Gao Zheng go to the Asian Cup at the beginning of next year.

said that it was the beginning of next year, but in fact Gao Zheng will leave the team at the end of this year, and he will even miss the last league game of Atletico Madrid at the end of this year, in the sixteenth round of December 21, Atletico Madrid will challenge Athletic Bilbao away. Because there was a warm-up match in China at the same time that day, and the Chinese team faced Palestine at home. It was the last warm-up match before the Chinese team prepared for the Asian Cup. After this game, the Chinese team will go to Australia.

As for whether he will miss the 15th round of Atletico Madrid's home match against Villarreal, it is difficult to say now, Atletico Madrid is discussing with the Chinese Football Association, hoping to let Gao Zheng finish this league and then report back to the national team.

But the Chinese Football Association hopes that Gao Zheng can come back as soon as possible to prepare for the game, after all, because of Gao Zheng, the whole country has paid great attention to this Asian Cup, and the Football Association has also felt the pressure on the results. In order to ensure that they can get good results, they hope that Gao Zheng can meet with the national team as soon as possible and participate more in the preparation and training camp.

The warm-up match against Palestine is indeed December 21, but the players can't just rush back to play a warm-up game, right? I always have to come back early and train with my teammates. If you go home after the match against Villarreal on the 14th, it will be no different from coming back to play directly.

The Football Association hopes that Gao Zheng can play in the Champions League group stage of Atletico Madrid's away challenge to Juventus, and then come back directly to meet his teammates in the national team, not only to prepare for the game against Palestine, but also to prepare for the Asian Cup in Australia.

As a result, the two sides have been negotiating, but no one knows what will be possible in the end.

At the post-match press conference between Atletico Madrid and Elche, Simeone half-jokingly said: "I don't understand why the Asian Cup is going to be played in winter. I can understand that the Africa Cup of Nations is held in winter, because more than half of Africa is in the southern hemisphere, and winter in the northern hemisphere is summer for them. Why do Asian football events also take place in winter, aren't they afraid of the cold? ”

A Chinese reporter reminded him that the Asian Cup was held in Australia, a country in the southern hemisphere, so the winter in the northern hemisphere is also summer for Australia.

Simone was speechless.
