Chapter 915: February

Another six wins in a row, after Atletico won the halfway and went unbeaten in the half, Atletico won the next few games.

In other words, this season's half-time points are two points less than last season's, because there is one more draw in the halfway of this season than last season.

As in the season, Atletico Madrid and Barcelona are behind Real Madrid and Barcelona, but this season they have changed positions, with Real Madrid second in the table and Barcelona third.

And Barcelona's third place looks a bit miserable, in the first half of the nineteen rounds, Barcelona lost four games, plus two draws, even if Atletico Madrid halfway because of one less game in the Club World Cup, the difference between the two teams reached 9 points.

On the other hand, Real Madrid's results in the league are good, because Atletico Madrid has one game less, and Real Madrid's halfway point difference is only 2 points behind Atletico Madrid.

However, these two points soon became 5 points, because Atletico Madrid won the opponent in the make-up match as desired, and Athletic Bilbao, because of the impact of the European Champions Cup, Athletic Bilbao had a rather poor result this season, 30 points behind Atletico Madrid, and ranked at the bottom of the standings.

Six wins in a row, with Atletico Madrid's win over Athletic Bilbao, Atletico Madrid once again ushered in a wave of six consecutive wins, and at half-time, Atletico Madrid first welcomed the quarter-final opponent in the Copa del Rey, Malaga.

2:1, Atletico Madrid defeated Malaga 2:1 in the first round of the competition, and then Atletico Madrid defeated Rayo Vallecano 4:1.

In the second leg against Malaga, Atletico remained on the cup bench and reached the semi-finals, where they faced another side from Barcelona, Espanyol.

Coming back from the Copa del Rey, the 21st round of the league came as scheduled, 5:1, or a big victory, although Atletico Madrid's opponent Eibar has a good record recently, jumping from the original relegation zone to the middle of the standings, but in the face of Lin Dong, who scored a hat trick, Eibar can only do to disarm and surrender.

With the hat-trick in this game, Lin Dong also completed his sixth hat-trick of the season, and the number of goals in 20 rounds of games reached 46.

However, these 46 are obviously not the point, and a few days later, Lin Dong scored another goal in the replay against Athletic Bilbao to brush his tally to 47.

Although Lin Dong scored fewer goals in this game, he had a lot of assists, Griezmann ushered in his first hat trick at Atletico Madrid, and it was also the first hat trick of Griezmann's career, and Griezmann's hat trick Lin Dong can be said to have contributed a lot, because Lin Dong sent two assists to Griezmann.

However, Atletico Madrid, who have won six in a row, should not be taken lightly, because the time has entered February, and with the arrival of February, the Champions League knockout rounds will also be resumed.

In other words, Atletico Madrid's luck in the Champions League knockout round is still very good, and one-eighth of the opponents are not strong, from Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga.

Madrid's opponents in the knockout stages of the Champions League were similar, with Atletico drawing Bayer Leverkusen and Real Madrid drawing another Bundesliga team, Schalke 04.

Compared to the luck of Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid, Barcelona's luck is not so good, the Universe team faces the Premier League upstart Manchester City, although Manchester City's results in the Champions League are not very ideal, but Manchester City's strength is quite strong.

In addition to the strong dialogue between Barcelona and Manchester City, Chelsea's opponents are not weak, the French super tycoon team Paris Saint-Germain, and the team led by Swedish striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

Ibrahimovic and Lin Dong are old enemies, the two have clashed on the pitch before, and the two have also fought off the pitch, that is, the battle for Raiola's top stars.

Obviously, after Lin Dong won the Ballon d'Or, the battle for the top spot has been very obvious, but recently there have been rumours that Ibrahimovic seems to be ready to part ways with Raiola.

It is unknown whether this has anything to do with Lin Dong, and it is estimated that even if there is Ibrahimovic's pride, he will not admit it, besides, the focus of Lin Dong's attention is not on this now.

In addition to the strong dialogue between these teams, there are some highlights for Dortmund and Juventus, and the others are either strong and weak or the team itself is not enough attention.

For example, Bayern Munich vs. Shakhtar Donetsk, Basel vs. Porto, and especially Basel vs. Porto, apart from the respective fans of both sides, there are no fans who will pay attention at all.

Because after the match with Athletic Bilbao, before the Champions League, Atletico Madrid still have an important game to play, the second leg of the Madrid derby in the league.

Although the two teams have played each other in the Copa del Rey before, the Copa del Rey is far from being comparable to the league, which is worth six points and is likely to affect the final winner of the league title.

Although Atletico Madrid ushered in a wave of six consecutive wins, but before Real Madrid created the longest winning streak of the season, 13 consecutive wins, starting from the third round of the league, that is, after the first leg of the Madrid derby lost to Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid won all from the fourth round to the sixteenth round, and this wave of consecutive wins also allowed Real Madrid to surpass Barcelona.

After 21 rounds of the current league, Atletico Madrid is first in the standings with 59 points, while Real Madrid is second with 54 points, and the difference between the two teams is only 5 points.

Third-placed Barcelona are 12 points behind Atletico Madrid, with only 47 points after 21 league games.

However, with the strength of Barcelona, it is not impossible to chase this point difference, and the next round of the league is a good opportunity for Barcelona to chase points.

Therefore, in this round of the league, Barcelona rarely stood on the same front with Real Madrid and cheered for Real Madrid, because only if Real Madrid wins, Barcelona can get the most ideal result and pull the points difference to within ten points.

However, it will not be easy for Real Madrid to win, and since last season, Real Madrid have played Atletico Madrid a full nine times, but these nine meetings have ended in defeat.

Among them, there are the Copa del Rey final, and the Champions League Champions Cup final, which is the most recent Copa del Rey knockout round this season, and Real Madrid also ended in elimination.

Looking at it this way, Real Madrid's future is really dark, but all kinds of football records are used to break everything, and before last season, Atletico Madrid was also winless against Real Madrid for many years.

Eternal victory on the football field, there is no eternal peak, you sing and I appear on the stage is the eternal truth of the football world, as the so-called generations of talented people come out, each leading the way for hundreds of years.
