Chapter 821: A Similar Beginning
"The ball went in~~~~ The ball went in like this?" Martinez was stunned, the fans in the stands were stunned, the benches on both sides of the pitch were stunned, even the players on the pitch were stunned.
This includes Lin Dong, although Lin Dong is ready to score at any time, but this kick is actually more of a tentative kick.
"GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO~~~ The fastest goal in La Liga this season, Atletico Madrid scored in the opening 33 seconds."
"Lin~~~ or Lin~~~ still remember last season, Atletico Madrid's first game in the league, Lin attacked for the first time at the opening of Atletico Madrid, and broke Sevilla's goal with his first shot."
"History repeats itself~~~ Although the way of scoring goals is completely different, it is Atletico Madrid's first attack this season, the first shot on goal, and last season, it was also officially led by Lin Dong to win the unimaginable treble, and this season, this seems to indicate that Atletico Madrid will complete the defense of the title under the leadership of Lin."
All eyes were on Lin Dong, and at this moment, Lin Dong had already reacted from this unexpected goal, spreading his hands, enjoying the cheers of the fans, and also enjoying the first goal of the season.
"I don't know if Lin will start his new season with a hat-trick like last season, and start a new season for Atletico Madrid" People are greedy.
Well, for Lin Dong, it's not greed, as long as the luck is not too bad, it's still okay to score a hat trick, after all, the opponent is not strong.
On the field, the game has restarted, and Rayo Vallecano, who conceded a goal, counterattacked more fiercely than expected, although it is much inferior to Atletico Madrid in terms of strength, but in terms of momentum, Rayo Vallecano cannot lose, this is the first round of the league after all.
Momentum is still useful sometimes, but sometimes it doesn't work, for example, right now, Rayo Vallecano is imposing, but Atletico Madrid is not bad.
This is the first game of the league and Atletico Madrid also want to have a perfect start, not to mention that Atletico have already had a perfect start in this game.
Rayo Vallecano's first wave of counter-attacks ended in failure, as Chelsea loan Marc Kakuta broke through with the ball and was cut off by Juanfran on the ball.
Atletico turned to attack and Juanfran passed the ball to Koke, who took the ball and watched for a while to pass it to Saul, who sent it to Gabi's feet.
Gabi made a diagonal pass to Ansaldi, who had already rushed into the Rayo Vallecano half, and although Argentina's speed was not busy, the reaction of Rayo Vallecano's defensive origin was also fast.
Pulling, passing, Ansaldi sucking the defender away and then crossing back to the wing, by which point Atletico left-back Siqueira had rushed up.
"Header ~~~ didn't score~~~ Siqueira crossed, Lin pressed the defender's header in the penalty area and hit the goal high" This header Lin Dong didn't do well.
"Gone a Brazilian full-back, Atletico Madrid added a Brazilian full-back" to go instead of selling, because Atletico Madrid is not ready to sell Felipe at all, how can the Brazilian not resist the temptation of Chelsea and want to leave.
Rayo Vallecano continued to fight back, but their counterattack was said to have scored, that is, the number of times they threatened Atletico Madrid's goal was very few, and the advantage and initiative were always at the feet of Atletico Madrid.
In the fifteenth minute, Rayo Vallecano really threatened Atletico's goal for the first time, when Pereira dropped back and sent a brilliant backheel past the Atletico defender into the box.
Bueno successfully countered offside, vacant, single-handed, but it was in this situation that the striker from Real Madrid? Failed to grasp it, and under Moya's attack, Bueno's shot hit the post and bounced off the bottom line.
Well, in fact it was not only Rayo Vallecano's most dangerous shot since the opening, but also Rayo Vallecano's most dangerous shot in the first half.
This shot really scared Atletico Madrid, but at the same time, it also gave Atletico players a wake-up call, although the opponent's strength is not as good as their own, but in football, strength does not mean everything.
On the sidelines, Simeone was also very dissatisfied with Atletico Madrid's defense, and the Atletico Madrid coach still had a smile on his face, but after this wave, the Atletico Madrid coach's brows wrinkled directly.
Atletico immediately returned the ball with a long-range shot from outside the box from captain Gabi, and this time the Callekano goalkeeper was not careless, flying to block the ball, and Atletico won a corner.
Gabi drove the ball directly into the Rayo Vallecano penalty area, Miranda, and the Atletico Madrid central defender headed to the first point and also completed the header, but could not hold it down.
In the 26th minute, Ansaldi also sent a delicate pass, in the penalty area, Lin Dong involved two defenders of Rayo Vallecano, and Ansaldi's pass went directly to Griezmann in the ribs.
Perhaps because he was about to score his first goal for Atletico, Antoine Griezmann's shot was a little too tight and too angle-oriented, and the ball bounced off the post in the bottom right corner of the net just in front of Alvarez, who only needed to press forward to pocket the ball.
Four minutes later, a Rayo Vallecano attack almost injured the Atletico captain, and Gabi had a scramble with Bueno, but the Rayo Vallecano striker used his feet and the Atletico captain used his head.
Fortunately, in the end, both sides were recovered, but even so, the Atletico captain's forehead was also cut by Bueno's spikes, and the wound was not shallow.
Atletico's team doctor came in as soon as possible and brought Gabi to the sidelines, and Simeone was ready to make a substitution, but in the end there was no substitution, as a captain, Gabi still hopes to lead the team to win the first league game of the season.
Then the referee also turned to Bueno, a yellow card, although it was recovered in the end, but Bueno raised his foot a little too high, which is a very dangerous thing, and there is no controversy about a yellow card.
In the next few minutes, Atletico's offensive slowed down slightly, as Gabi was receiving treatment on the sidelines, and Atletico were temporarily absent from the pitch.
However, it only took a few minutes, and soon the team doctor took care of the wound on the Atletico captain's head, and the game officially returned to normal.
With Gabi's return, Atletico Madrid also took the initiative back, and played several waves of good attacks in a row, and Lin Dong once again tested Alvarez with a long-range shot.
Then Godin took the first corner and was again blocked by Alvarez, changed sides, and then passed, Abdoulayba cleared the ball, and the Senegalese centre-back is nearly two meters tall, the highest altitude on the field.
In the 40th minute, Antoine Griezmann broke through two people in quick succession and burst into the box, but it was still a little far from his first goal at Atletico, and finally hit an anti-aircraft gun.
