Three years ago, Atletico Madrid beat Fulham to win the first Europa League in their history, breaking a 48-year title gap and giving Madrid and Spain the only glory of the season, and on that day, Atletico replaced Real Madrid as the pride of the city.

Three years later, Atletico Madrid once again ascended to the throne of La Liga titles, breaking Real Madrid Barcelona's 10-year monopoly on La Liga titles, and also filling the embarrassment of the team's 18 years without a league title.

In two weeks' time, Atletico Madrid and Catalonia will compete for the title of Spanish football centre at Camp Nou, and in three weeks' time, Atletico will face the Copa del Rey title......

Whether Real Madrid people admit it or ignore it, Madrid is no longer only one team, Madrid is no longer Real Madrid covering the sky, since Li Huan joined Atletico Madrid with money, Atletico Madrid threw away the hat of "Madrid's outcasts", they became God's lucky ones, and all Atletico Madrid people believe that the competition between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid has just begun. ”

That's what Ace said after Atletico Madrid won the league title two rounds ahead of schedule. Atletico Madrid's snatching of the league title from Real Madrid and Barcelona has a greater impact than their Europa League three years ago, after all, the Europa League is only a second-rate trophy, and the league championship is a reflection of strength, one game at a time, there is no luck at all.

The headline of the newspaper Marca read: "After 10 years, let you know that La Liga is not just Real Madrid and Barcelona. "Atletico Madrid broke Real Madrid's 10-year monopoly on La Liga, only since Valencia won the championship in the 0304 season, no team can challenge the hegemony of Real Madrid and Barcelona, because Real Madrid's nickname is the Galaxy Battleship, Barcelona is known as an alien team, and La Liga has gradually become a super league by foreign fans. And the birth of Atletico Madrid finally changed the status quo, they pulled Real Madrid and Barcelona back to Earth like gravity, and La Liga has since become a situation of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. ”

Catalan media newspaper Le Monde Sport gloated: "Atletico Madrid, you let the world know that Madrid is not just Real Madrid. "In the future, Real Madrid people don't have to boast that "Barcelona only has Real Madrid in their eyes, and Real Madrid has the whole world in their eyes", they will first settle their own backyard and then brag. ”

Catalonia's other sports media "Every Sports Newspaper" believes that the current situation was doomed 5 years ago, since Li Huan participated in the Champions League, he has won five Champions League titles, and now it is easy to encounter Li Huan's absence from the Champions League for a season, Real Madrid and Barcelona how can they not desperately seize the reason, too concerned about the Champions League, so that they ignore the league, which led to Atletico Madrid's easy victory, otherwise with the overall strength and endurance alone, Real Madrid and Barcelona are stronger than Atletico Madrid. "Across Europe, the title race is still over due to the weakness of the giants, and Atletico Madrid became the first team to win the league title. For Atletico Madrid's sudden rise, the mainstream media in various countries have given it a very high evaluation.

Due to Arsenal's current rapid decline in the Premier League and the Champions League, Li Huan's departure is like draining Arsenal's spirit, Arsenal lost the hope of winning the league championship in the middle of the league, and the Champions League also stopped in the quarterfinals.

The British media is even more touched by this, the British "Sun" said: From Hoffenheim, it can be known that Real Madrid and Barcelona are also difficult to stop Li Huan's footsteps, he has long become synonymous with the championship, for Arsenal to let Li Huan go, we can only say that they are too lacking in vision, Li Huan can not be measured by common sense at all, and the thirty-year-old Li Huan is still likely to play for another five years. Arsenal's fall can only be described in one word: deserved. ”

With the departure of Li Huan and the fall of Arsenal, Manchester has also seen the same situation as Madrid, Manchester City's rise like Chelsea, directly threatens the dominance of Manchester United, and the Premier League has become a situation of Manchester United and Manchester City.

"Manchester Evening News" commented on Atletico Madrid's victory: "Atletico Madrid's victory has largely inspired Manchester City, he made Manchester City believe that nothing is impossible, the little brother can still beat the big brother, Manchester City is similar to Atletico Madrid in all aspects, including the coach's surname, but they still lack a king like Li Huan, Wang is the leader of a group, Wang is the domineering of the Megatron side." It is a kind of personality charm that is not angry but mighty, that is, the brothers are willing to listen to you, and they are willing to be born and die with you, and go to the soup and fire. Tevez is just a ball bully, he is not a king, and without a king, it is difficult for a team to win the championship. ”

Germany's "Bild" also applauded the performance of Li Huan and Atletico Madrid, they believe that Atletico's success is because of Li Huan, not because of Li Huan's money, and Atletico invested a lot last season, but they can only be relegated. The reporter of "Bild" believes that Li Huan can maintain such a good competitive state and body at the age of 30, mainly because he has a very strict control over his private life, rarely goes to nightclubs, and goes home after training, so he will not fall early like Xiao Luo Daluo.

Because Atletico Madrid is a team controlled by Chinese, the core is also Chinese players, on the night of Atletico's victory, Chinese fans celebrated as crazy as Spain, according to incomplete statistics, there are forty or fifty large and medium-sized cities in the country, about tens of millions of people cheered at night, and also set off fireworks. Li Huan's appeal among Chinese fans can be seen. Of course, at the same time, it can also be seen how stubborn and arrogant the Chinese Football Association is, and has resolutely stood on the opposite side of hundreds of millions of fans for many years.

The Chinese media described Li Huan's championship with a strong pen, "The Ball" said: "This is one of the greatest moments in the history of Atletico Madrid, they won the league again after 18 years, they will usher in another glorious era of Atletico Madrid, Li Huan came to La Liga, once again showed the power of the gods, he still dominates the scorer list and assist list like in the Premier League and the Bundesliga, and now he can no longer be called a defender, he is a free man on the field." ”

Zhou Wenyuan, the editor-in-chief of the "Weekly News", wrote the commentary himself, saying: "Before the start of the season, some people doubted Li Huan's state, such as Arsenal, but now Li Huan has proved that he is still the Super Saiyan, he is Ultraman, he is a magical alien, he is the symbol of the championship, we have no doubt at all that if Atletico Madrid qualifies for the Champions League, Atletico Madrid will win the treble." The Europa League is coming to an end, and Chinese fans will soon be able to see Li Huan and his teammates stage a storm of youth, now let's pray that time will go a little faster, we can't wait. ”

Having won the title two rounds with two rounds to go, Atletico had to go through the motions for the rest of the game, and their celebrations lasted almost a week, but they still beat relegated Levante in the league and sent their opponents back to the second division. In the following week, Atletico Madrid will be in a bit of spirit, as they will go to Camp Nou to challenge Barcelona, although this game is only a battle of honor, but if they are defeated by Barcelona, it will also make their perfect season a little flawed, and after playing the match against Barcelona, the Copa del Rey final will start soon, and Atletico Madrid also hope to play Barcelona as a warm-up opponent.

On May 19th, the last round of La Liga focus battle was launched between Atletico Madrid and Barcelona, although this game is not related to winning the championship and relegation, nor is it related to the Champions League seat, but the competition between the new and old hegemons, no one will be willing to fail, when there is no concern, they will inevitably do a real job, fans and media believe that the game will only be better, and because Li Huan has scored 40 goals this season, as long as he scores two more goals, he can surpass Ronaldo to become the player with the most goals in a single season in La Liga, Before the game, the media and fans were expecting it to be a head-to-head battle.

Nearly 100,000 fans poured into the Camp Nou, including more than 20,000 Atletico Madrid fans, and with nearly 100,000 fans cheering, the new and old giants of La Liga launched an offensive battle related to honor.

Barcelona's trump card is Messi, but their midfield is the key, cutting off Barcelona's midfield delivery and squeezing Alves' assist, Barcelona's chances of winning are reduced by more than half, and Atletico Madrid is not much worse than Barcelona by comparing the individual abilities of the players.

Atletico Madrid has put a lot of effort into this, it is very easy to kill Alves, Li Huan came to the position of left back, Alves must be dumb, but the control of the midfield is the most difficult, actor Buskos, master Xavi, little white Iniesta, and Arsenal's former captain Fabregas, these four controlled midfielders no team in the world can compare.

If you can't build, you can only destroy, Manzano is also a wilted man, he removed Diego in the midfield, removed Gabi and Thiago, all the sappers who can run and fight, Koko, Assunsan, Elias and other runners who can't run all starters, and the front line removed Adrian, who had a good header, put Turan on the front line, and let him behind Falcao.

Manzano has speed maniacs like Li Huan and Tulan, and they have not put down an iron bucket formation, they have invested a lot of troops in defense, and they have also invested a lot of troops in attack, and Atletico Madrid has played a typical active defensive counterattack.

Barcelona's ability to control the ball is unparalleled in the world, but Atletico Madrid is crazy like a madman today, full of pressing, and the Camp Nou, which is much larger than the average stadium, is full of red and white Atletico jerseys, which makes many Atletico Madrid fans worry that their team will run out of power in less than 90 minutes.

Barcelona couldn't keep the ball accurate up front under this crazy foul pressing, they had to wait and wait until Atletico were physically exhausted before giving them the fatal blow, the Catalans are matadors, they have patience, they know how to play the angry bull, and they know when to give the bull a fatal blow.
