With a 4-1 win at home to Arsenal, Atletico Madrid have seven points from the group, which is enough to put them on top of the pack and take the absolute initiative in qualifying from the group.

The other three teams, even Arsenal, who have lost two games in three games and only got one point, still have the possibility of qualifying from the group, and the qualifying situation is still chaotic.

In addition to Atletico Madrid's unbeaten run in three group games, there is another team in this group that is also undefeated, and that is Borussia Dortmund from Germany. In this round of the group stage, they drew 2-2 with visiting Napoli at their home stadium, which was their third draw.

Three group games, three draws, Dortmund unbeaten one, but life is not very easy. It's good not to lose, but it's not a bad thing to always get a draw.

Because of three consecutive draws, the Bundesliga Hornets have only three points on points, and they are temporarily third in the group.

Napoli, who got one point in this game, are still second in the group, with four points from one win, one draw and one loss.

Arsenal lost two and drew one in the three rounds of the group stage, with only one point, and temporarily finished bottom of the group.

It can be said that Atletico Madrid can be regarded as a champion today, and only one victory in the remaining three group games will basically lock in a qualifying place.

As for the other three teams, it is estimated that even if Paul the Octopus comes, it will not work, and the situation is too confusing - four points, three points, one point...... The points gap has not been opened at all, everyone has the possibility of catching up after one game, and there is also the danger of becoming the bottom of the ranking after one game.

Because of this chaotic situation, all kinds of reports have also been raised, and various media have expressed their opinions.

"Atletico Madrid came out on top, beating Arsenal 4-1. It's just one step away from qualifying! ”

"The Bundesliga Hornets Dortmund are caught in a draw circle, three games and three draws, and the prospects of qualifying are in doubt!"

"Napoli went against the tide and were considered the weakest in the group but came back to finish second in the group, and experts say they are the team most likely to qualify for the last 16 of the Champions League other than Atletico Madrid!"

"Three games, two defeats and one draw, Arsenal's record is terrible. However, Arsene Wenger says he remains hopeful about his team's prospects of qualifying and that they will be able to secure a place in the group. ”

Experts predict. There is no doubt that Atletico Madrid will qualify, and for the other place, the three teams will fight to the end! ”

"Arsenal's giants should not be underestimated, and they should be fully effective in the next three group games!"

………………………………………………………………………………………………………

After the third round of the Champions League group stage with Arsenal, there will be a "pause" for about ten days in the Champions League, and Atletico Madrid will put their energy back into the league.

Three days later, Atletico Madrid hosted Osasuna at home.

It was a tough game, with Osasuna completely out of the way at the Calderón Stadium in a non-attacking and stubborn bucket formation. Atletico went on a rampage for most of the time without being able to score.

In the final moments, it was Vazquez, who came on as a substitute, to create a scoring opportunity for Atletico Madrid. The "halo with its own" player lived up to his name, coming on as a substitute for Cork in the 81st minute, only to be three minutes later. After a series of breakthroughs, he rushed into the penalty area and was tripped by a defender and fell to the ground.

The referee did not hesitate to award a penalty.

Qin Shou made it overnight and helped the team take a one-goal lead.

Osasuna is also a well-known nerve knife in La Liga, defending for more than 80 minutes. But at the last moment, Atletico Madrid took advantage of a penalty kick to lead, and he was naturally extremely unwilling, so in the following time. It's like I'm going crazy.

First on the defend, then on a desperate onslaught, Osasuna's performance before and after was astonishing and jaw-dropping.

But not to mention, Osasuna's desperate posture really brought a lot of threat to Atletico Madrid, and before the end of the game, a cold shot by Spanish veteran Llorente hit the crossbar, which shocked all Atletico Madrid fans in a cold sweat.

Fortunately, under Atletico Madrid's desperate defense, in the end, Osasuna still did not break through the home team's goal, and could only be unwilling to drink hatred away from home.

Atletico Madrid didn't get enough rest after a hard-fought win over Osasuna, as the fourth round of the Copa del Rey kicked off in midweek.

The format of the Copa del Rey is not limited to the league level of the participating teams, which means that any team registered in each division of the Spanish league can participate.

Of course, the clubs in the top league have a very busy schedule of events every season, so it is naturally impossible to play any "qualifiers" against lower-level teams.

Therefore, the first three rounds of the Copa del Rey are basically the Spanish low-level teams fighting each other, a game to determine the winner or loser, and from the fourth round, the 11 low-level teams decided, plus the champion of La B and 20 La Liga teams, a total of 32 teams, will participate in the home and away two-legged knockout rounds until the final champion is decided.

To be honest, the Spanish Copa del Rey is indeed very attractive to giants like Real Madrid and Barcelona, after all, these top teams have extremely tight schedules on all fronts every season, and the players' physical fitness is also saving, so in the Copa del Rey competition, the energy invested is naturally a lot smaller.

Even many times, Real Madrid and Barcelona send substitutes and second-tier players to participate. If you can continue to advance, you will be promoted, and it doesn't matter if you are eliminated, it will be regarded as training. It is estimated that other than reaching the final, these two teams will not pay much attention at all.

This is also the reason why the Copa del Rey is called a hotbed for weak teams, the big teams don't look down on this championship trophy, but the small clubs can see it, they can play against the top teams, and have the opportunity to chase the championship, this kind of good thing, they are naturally happy.

And for the current Atletico Madrid, it is also the same mentality as Real Madrid and Barcelona. Although their background is not enough to compare with the first two, and they are not qualified to pick and choose the champion, but they are also very helpless, the league and the Champions League two-front battle makes them feel difficult, if they divide their energy into the domestic cup competition, then it is estimated that no one front will be pleased, and finally collapse everywhere, chickens and eggs - their bench thickness is really not enough to support them in the three-line battle.

So in midweek, Atletico also sent a starting lineup dominated by second-tier teams. Simeone's purpose is also very clear, it is to train newcomers, if you can play, if you can't, we can only give up this event.

However, the good news is that Atletico Madrid have drawn a top draw this time, and their Copa del Rey fourth round opponent is a team from La C, which is the fourth division of Spain, called Costa Calida.

This team is probably not heard of by many people, and in fact, many Spanish locals don't know what this team is about. Atletico Madrid Club was also confused, and finally collected a lot of information about its opponents, only to know that this is a semi-professional and semi-amateur team composed mainly of college students.

Aside from the fact that the team is almost 100 years old, there is nothing to praise about the team called Costa Calida, and it is also because of luck that they were able to reach the fourth round of the Copa del Rey, they actually dragged the game into a penalty shoot-out twice in a row, and then eliminated their opponents with penalties, and finally stumbled to the present.

Simeone is relieved, for such a team, even if Atletico Madrid is a second-tier team, it should not be too much of a problem to win.

The result is also the same, since the fourth round starts with a two-legged knockout format, according to the rules, the teams with lower strength and league rank will play the home game first.

The away team and then the home team are also a favorable schedule for Atletico Madrid, Costa Calida did not continue the good luck in the first three rounds, and Atletico Madrid, who sent a full substitute lineup, played away from home, so they easily beat the opponent 3-0.

It is worth mentioning that in this game, Correa and Xu Xin, who were temporarily transferred to the second team, got the opportunity to play, and both of them had a good performance, Correa received a pass from his teammates before the end of the game, and used his header to add icing on the cake to the team, and Xu Xin came on as a substitute in the 75th minute, although there were no goals and assists, but his active running in the midfield is also a beautiful landscape.

With this win, Atletico can be said to have stepped into the round of 16 of the Copa del Rey with one foot.

In other words, Atletico Madrid is now in the league, the Champions League, and the domestic cup. Although Atletico will choose to abandon a certain front in the middle and late stages of the league, so far, Atletico have not suffered a defeat in any field since the start of the season, which is an excellent result.

After the Copa del Rey match, the tenth round of the league was followed by another intense restart.

Atletico Madrid's opponent in this round is Valencia, and the Bat Army has always been a strong team in La Liga, but in this game, Qin Shou suddenly broke out, following two hat tricks in the Champions League, and finally scored three goals in a single game in the league.

He scored three goals in the 41st, 62nd and 79th minutes of the game with an overhead kick and was the biggest contributor to the team's victory.

Costa also had a goal on the scoresheet, and it was Vázquez who provided the assist. The Madrid local player, who only joined Atletico Madrid this season, is now playing better and better in the team, and he not only gave Costa an assist in this game, but also gave Qin Shou an assist. He has now moved his assist stats to seven in the league assists charts, temporarily topping the list.

The final score of the game was 2:4, with the home team in front and the away team behind, and Atletico Madrid won three consecutive league games and continued to play a triumphant song in the league.
