"The players on both sides returned to their positions, the game restarted, Atletico Madrid's morale was boosted and launched a step-by-step counter-attack, although the sailors on the other side conceded a goal, they did not panic, they used their opportunity to control the ball little by little to wear down the morale of the Atletico Madrid players, they knew that although this morale was strong, it was like water without roots!"

As the commentator put it, Villarreal at this time, although they were pulled back by the Sheets, they did not panic at all, but quickly re-entered the game, under the control of Saint-Tiago, controlled the ball at their feet in an orderly manner, like a precision harvester, little by little corroded the high morale of Atletico.

In such a situation, Atletico Madrid's players have repeatedly carried out fierce counter-attacks, but the effect is minimal, although Forlan, who is in hot form again, still threatens the Yellow Submarine goal from time to time on the wing, but the increasingly tight defense makes him no longer find the same good opportunity to score. So after nearly 20 minutes of stalemate, in the 73rd minute of the second half, Aguirre still replaced Forlan with a throw-in opportunity.

Despite the disappointing performance in the first half, Forlan received applause from Atletico Madrid fans for his stunning performance at the start of the second half.

"Hehe, can there be applause after paddling the entire first half?"

Just as Santiago was finally taking this opportunity to catch his breath, a dark voice suddenly sounded behind him on the noisy court.

"Damn! You're not trying to scare me to death to win the game! ”

After hearing this, he was slightly surprised, and Shengti knew who the owner of this familiar voice was, and sure enough, he turned his head and looked at Banega with a hehe-like face, and he continued helplessly: "But is it really good for you to belittle your own goal hero in front of your opponent like this?" David. ”

This year has been arguably the saddest year for Banega since he stepped into the professional arena, with a series of sex scandals that have severely affected his performance on the court since his bed video was exposed by the media. After a slump he was loaned to Atletico Madrid by Valencia, and although he came off the bench on his Atletico debut to help them beat PSV Eindhoven 3-0 in the Champions League, he was unable to break into the starting line-up of the Sheets and was forced to play as a substitute.

However, Rao is like this, seeing Banega's unconvinced look now, Santi knows that this kid still doesn't realize his problem, and he hasn't reminded his friends, but every time it has little effect, so Santi has also died down a few times.

"Am I wrong, Santi? Well, you'll have to be careful, because I'm going to guard you to death! Banega asked with an eyebrow, then he shook his head and said with a smile.

"Hey, I'll wait and see?"

"Wait and cry!!! Santi. ”

Indeed, Banega is definitely familiar with Santhiago compared to the rest of the Atletico crowd, and this may be one of the reasons why Aguirre brought him on the pitch. But the Atletico boss was that the situation on the pitch did not improve much, even with Banega and another substitute coming on to put a lot of pressure on the Villarreal penalty area and the activities of Santhiago.

Because at this moment, how can the Yellow Submariners, who have fully adapted to the attacking style and rhythm shown by Atletico Madrid in this game, easily let the opponent breathe? Whenever the Sheets attacked, Godin and the others would immediately clamp Aguero in their arms, constantly interfering with the Argentine shooter with small movements.

Carney, who played more than 70 minutes and was still alive, teamed up with Santiago to continue to contain the Atletico midfield, although they also paid the price of a yellow card, but for Villarreal they were completely acceptable in the remaining ten minutes. In this way, when two strong attacking players were caught by Villarreal's small contraction, the burden of attack inevitably fell on the remaining midfielders.

It was at this time that the unity of Atletico's attack and the lack of firepower in the midfield were revealed.

Although Banega is also a strong player on the pitch, he is only a second-class player in La Liga, and he has struggled to cope with the headwinds of his team as a whole, which is why he has rarely won in strong dialogues. At the same time, Sergio Aguero on the other side is a man of valence but inability to find the back of the net, and in such a situation, Aguirre will finally pin his hopes on the flash of inspiration of the star player, and there is nothing he can do

Almost all of the best players on the team are already on the field!

Even though the singing in the stands of the Notro Calderón was still singing at the moment, half of Madrid could no longer find a player who could salvage Atletico's decline, and when the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, Atletico Madrid reaped their first defeat in the Copa del Rey, while the Villarreal let out earth-shattering cheers away from home.

When Pellegrini shook hands with Aguirre and walked off the field, he was greeted by a crowd of journalists, and Aguirre, who is the manager of Atletico Madrid in the mixed zone, only gave a hasty interview and did not linger too much. As for Atletico's players, most of them have long since left, only the captain is still being interviewed on behalf of the whole team, and everyone knows what they lost. No one said anything more ambitious at this time, and the feeling of loss enveloped everyone.

"Santiago, can you talk about how you're feeling at the moment?"

"Santy, what would you like to say or comment about Atletico Madrid? In this game, your former Olympic team-mate Sergio Aguero, national team team-mate Rodriguez, club team-mate Banega and others have all played, what do you think helped you beat them to victory? ”

"Santi, are you happy with your first La Liga goal?"

The loser suffers, the winner is surrounded by everyone, and as the biggest contributor to Villarreal's victory in this game, Santilago, who performed extremely well, was surrounded by countless media as soon as he stepped off the field. The reporters who flocked to the city held up the microphone and tried to lean towards Santi, while constantly reading out their own questions, hoping that Santi would be able to answer them at the first time.

It's a beautiful feeling.
