Chapter 685: Lin Dong is the best one
There is really nothing to say about Barcelona's resilience, but in the current situation, it is not enough to be resilient, and after the Atletico Madrid celebration, Simeone immediately made adjustments.
French midfielder Gillawogi came off the bench again and counted his chances of making league appearances on one hand throughout the first half of the season, replacing Thiago.
That wasn't over yet, and then Raul Garcia also came off the bench to replace Costa, and Simeone's intention to make these two substitutions could not be more obvious, that is, to strengthen the depth of the midfield and strengthen the defence.
And this time it was Costa instead of Lin Dong, which also ensured Atletico Madrid's attack, after all, Lin Dong has the ability to adjust the existence of Barcelona's entire defense, and Lin Dong can effectively contain Barcelona and threaten Barcelona if he stays on the field.
Throwing a mouse bogey, the current Barcelona is not enough, anyway, they are already three goals behind, but soon, Lin Dong proved that he still has a huge threat to Barcelona, even if Atletico Madrid turns to a comprehensive defensive mode.
In the 69th minute, Turan cut off Sergio Busquets, and then Atletico launched a quick counter-attack, Koke kicked the ball into the box, Lin Dong shook off Pique and competed with Mascherano for the head.
The result speaks for itself, Lin Dong not only hit the ball, but also pushed out a dead corner, but Lin Dong's dead corner was blocked by Valdés again, although Valdes was scored four goals by Lin Dong, but his performance was not bad.
Although Valdés was unlucky, he still blocked back into the box this time, but unfortunately no one followed up this time, and the fastest Raul Garcia was still outside the penalty area, and Pique finally cleared it.
Martino began to make substitutions, and the youngster Roberto came on and replaced Fabregas, which gave people a feeling of being a little sick and rushed to the hospital, and Fabregas was undoubtedly better than Roberto.
In fact, this substitution can also make some waves, Roberto quickly lost in Atletico's defence, and with the loss of time on the field, it is useless for Barcelona to calm down.
And Lin Dong threatened the Barcelona goal again in the 84th minute, but unfortunately Lin Dong's shot was a little bit less lucky, and the ball hit the crossbar with a pick-up shot in the counterattack.
Barcelona's last substitution was used on Messi, although Messi was very unhappy, but the impact of two months of injury was far more than the state, but also physical fitness, the game time came to the second half of the 70 minutes, Messi obviously couldn't run.
With Messi being replaced, Barcelona officially announced that they had given up the game, and then Simeone also made the last substitution decision.
Lin Dong was replaced by Adrian López, Simeone's decision was undoubtedly to let Lin Dong enjoy the cheers and applause of the fans, although from the beginning to the present, Lin Dong has always enjoyed the cheers and applause of the fans, but Lin Dong enjoys such treatment, or this is what Lin Dong deserves.
There is never a shortage of people in this world to watch the excitement, when Lin Dong enjoyed the treatment of the king, not only the live broadcast camera, but also the media guns and cannons on the sidelines of the media seats were also aimed at Messi.
There is no doubt that Lin Dong's performance in this game completely overshadowed Messi, and if you add the performance of the previous Madrid derby, Lin Dong has completed the double, leading Atletico Madrid to defeat Real Madrid and Barcelona respectively, and completely overpowering Messi and Ronaldo in terms of personal performance.
It was also after this game that the three-legged situation was truly recognized by everyone, and after defeating Real Madrid led by Ronaldo and Barcelona led by Messi respectively, Lin Dong was finally truly qualified to stand on the same level as Messi and Ronaldo.
After the game, in the face of the swarming media, Lin Dong was not arrogant enough to take the credit himself: "I'm glad that we defeated our most direct competitor." ”
"Four goals? Of course, it's a time of joy, it's the second time I've scored four goals in a single game in my career, and although I may have years to go in my career, it's always worth remembering the beginnings. ”
"No~~~No~~~ No, it's not just my credit to be able to beat Barcelona, it's the credit of all Atletico people, I definitely wouldn't have been able to score four goals without the help of my teammates, and if it wasn't for the support of the fans, we would definitely lack a lot of motivation."
Although Lin Dong seemed a little modest about the victory, when a reporter asked Lin Dong about his comparison with Messi and Ronaldo, Lin Dong did not have this modesty.
"The record and data speak for themselves" Lin Dong looked proud when he said this, yes, proud, the Atletico Madrid he led was not as good as Real Madrid and Barcelona in all aspects, but now Atletico Madrid is pressing Real Madrid and Barcelona, and Lin Dong's personal data is comprehensively suppressing Messi and Ronaldo.
On the other hand, Simeone was also in an interview, compared to Lin Dong's attribution of victory to the efforts of the whole team, Simeone was much more direct.
"Yes, Lin's excellent performance guarantees our victory, and even I think that as long as Lin is here, we can defeat any opponent."
'Of course, the other players are doing well, but Lin is better than the other players, he is even better than any other player.
"Leo? Ronaldo? They are undoubtedly the best players in football today, but in my mind, Lin is the best. ”
I have to say that Simeone's words almost made all the media present lose their glasses, after all, this product has been downplaying the role of Lin Dong in the team's victory before, and now this style of painting, even the media, which is known for changing faces, is a little unable to turn around.
Although Simone has already changed his attitude towards Lin Dong, it is really the first time that he has been praised so unscrupulously in front of the media, and it is no wonder that the media are like this.
Simeone was happy, but on the other hand, Martino was bombarded and questioned by the Catalan media, and in Barcelona, some fans began to chant Martino's dismissal, and it was obvious that after losing this game, Martino's life in Barcelona would become very sad.
Of course, this has nothing to do with Simeone, at most Simeone is to pity his compatriot, and Atletico Madrid has nothing to do with it, the two are enemies, and Atletico Madrid wants Barcelona to fall behind.
However, on the other side of Madrid, Real Madrid was depressed and a little fortunate at the same time, glad that Barcelona lost to Atletico Madrid, people are like this, since they lost, they naturally hope that Barcelona will lose.
Although both are mortal enemies, but just about to talk about it, Real Madrid still looks down on Atletico Madrid in his heart, and in Real Madrid's heart, there has always been only one real enemy, and that is Barcelona.
