Blanco scolded Gao Zheng on Twitter, hoping that Gao Zheng would reply to him, but apart from that tweet, Gao Zheng never posted on the Internet again.

This upset Blanco.

But in order to maintain his image, he still unilaterally announced his victory on the Internet, because in the face of his doubts and refutations, Gao Zheng didn't even dare to let out a fart. Isn't this a victory?

As for whether Gao Zheng can really help Atletico Madrid beat Barcelona, it will be after thirteen rounds of league games at the earliest.

Now Atletico Madrid face Sevilla in the league.

It's a team that's currently fifth, and it's a good team, and Atletico Madrid is still playing away.

Considering their lackluster form against Bayer Leverkusen, the result of this game is naturally interesting to watch.

Before the game, Blanco tweeted his gloating feelings: "Gao told me that Atletico Madrid would beat Barcelona at home, and the implication was that Atletico Madrid could still compete for the league title. But I think the win over Barcelona is after 13 league games, but the game against Sevilla is looming. If Atletico Madrid also loses this game, then I don't think it's better to mention the league title, right? Shame on ......"

Herrera was really angry when he saw Blanco's remarks, but the game hadn't been played yet, and he couldn't go back, otherwise if Atletico Madrid really lost, wouldn't he be beaten in the face of being beaten up?

Atletico Madrid's away game against Sevilla kicks off at 6pm local time, 2am GMT the next day.

Even though it was such a late game, there were still many fans waiting in front of the TV to watch the game live.

The quarrel between Gao Zheng and the Barcelona media, after the spread of the Internet and the media, fans in China knew about it, and everyone was naturally indignant, and there were various discussions about this kind of thing, but it was generally believed that the reporter named Blanco was indeed a bully.

I felt very cool when I was bullying, but after being crushed by Gao Zheng, I changed my face and lay on the ground and rolled around.

Chinese fans despise this kind of behavior.

So they expect Atletico Madrid to come up with a real result to slap Blanco in the face.

First of all, the first step is to definitely not lose to Sevilla.

Otherwise, all the big words he said before would be slapped in Gao Zheng's face in turn.

Because the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals will not be played until March 17, the game against Sevilla does not need to be rotated for the Champions League, and Simeone fielded the strongest squad he could put at his disposal.

Even Koke and Saul, who were injured against Real Madrid, returned to the squad, but did not start.

Simeone also made changes to the formation in this match. Switching to 451, five players were deployed in the midfield, vowing to fight for control of the midfield.

As long as they can control the midfield, Atletico Madrid have a chance of winning this game.

Sevilla, of course, is also the main force. It's also 451, but Sevilla plays a double-back position, still focusing on defense.

It's on Sevilla's own home turf, but why are they putting on a defensive posture instead?

Because they are facing the Atletico Madrid attack line led by Gao Zheng.

While both Koke and Saul were on the bench for the game, Atletico Madrid also boasted the likes of Alda Turan and Antoine Griezmann.

Looking at the league standings, although Sevilla and Atletico Madrid are only two places apart, the points difference between the two teams is very far. Atletico Madrid are now third with 56 points and Sevilla are fifth, but with only 45 points, they are 11 points behind Atletico Madrid.

The first meeting between the two sides this season was at home to Atletico Madrid, who beat them neatly 4-0 on their home turf.

Returning to their home turf this time, Sevilla will certainly not forget their heavy defeat in the last meeting.

So the game was played in high-intensity confrontations from the first minute.

In the twentieth minute, Arribas summed up Sevilla's fierce scramble with a yellow card.

However, Atletico Madrid is not a vegetarian, you must know that Atletico Madrid under Simeone is most famous for its fighting spirit and tough style.

So when Sevilla FC went against them physically, Atletico Madrid was not to be outdone and used the same defense to fight back.

In the first half, Atletico Madrid received yellow cards for two players, namely Alda Turan and captain Gabi.

Although the score is still 0:0, Atletico Madrid has a 2-1 lead in the number of yellow cards.

In the second half, the two sides changed sides and fought again, and the tough and fierce style of play did not change.

Just four minutes into the second half, in the 49th minute, Sevilla's defender Gřegorz Korehowiak received a yellow card for a rough foul.

Atletico Madrid immediately changed the color, and in the 51st, 52nd, and 55th minutes, three Atletico Madrid players received yellow cards for fouls. They are Jesús Gámez, Antoine Griezmann and Mario Suarez.

"Now Atletico Madrid has taken the lead again in terms of yellow cards, and it is far ahead!" José Maria teased.

But Atletico Madrid fans don't care who leads in the number of yellow cards, they care more about the score.

Now the game is almost an hour into it, the score is still 0-0, and in any case, Sevilla's tough style of play at home really worked, without conceding a goal.

In the last meeting between the two sides, in the same time period, Atletico Madrid had a three-goal lead over Sevilla.

It has to be said that Sevilla's home stadium is really difficult to play.

But no matter how difficult it is, Atletico Madrid must also win the opponent here, otherwise what is there to talk about competing for the league title?

Blanco is still right about one thing, as long as Barcelona don't lose next, they can still compete with Real Madrid for the league title, after all, Barcelona will have a direct dialogue with Real Madrid next, as long as they can beat Real Madrid, they can narrow the four-point gap to one point.

And Atletico Madrid has no chance to play against Real Madrid in the first place, and secondly, if they lose even one more goal, they may be completely opened up by the Spanish Super League giants.

Danielle Herrera knew that he had become persona non grata in the bar, and his former companions complained that he had caused trouble for Gao Zheng.

So for this game, instead of going to the bar to watch the game with his companions as usual, he stayed at home and watched the game alone.

It's almost 60 minutes, Atletico Madrid still can't get a goal, and he's a little anxious.

Even if this game is not lost in the end, it is a draw, he cannot accept this result.

Competing with teams like Barcelona and Real Madrid, a draw is a failure.

He wants the team to score.

But looking at other Atletico Madrid players such as Antoine Griezmann and Alda Turan doesn't seem to be pinning their hopes of scoring on them.

The TV broadcast gave a close-up to Gao Zheng, and even Herrera had a faint feeling in his heart that if he wanted to break the deadlock, if anyone could make Atletico Madrid take all three points at Sevilla's home stadium, I am afraid that only this person in the close-up shot......

Before, he rejected this idea in his heart.

And now he couldn't help but have some expectations in his heart.

Because Gao Zheng is on his side, and only Gao Zheng can help him prove to Blanco that he is talking nonsense!
