Chapter 66: The first win in the Champions League
In the first half, Napoli scored three goals, not to mention that the fans at the scene couldn't think of it, and even the Atletico Madrid players themselves couldn't think of it.
Before the game, they had tried their best to overestimate the difficulty of this game, after all, it is the consensus of the entire European football that the Serie A team is not good to play, but they did not expect that Atletico Madrid had a perfect start at the beginning, and how to play in the subsequent games, as long as there is a counterattack, it will pose a huge threat to the away team's defense.
At this point in the game, the suspense has basically been lost.
However, Simeone did not choose to make substitutions, he did have to make adjustments, on the one hand, to save the physical energy of the main players, and secondly, for the purpose of protection, after all, the rest of the game has become garbage time, if there is an inexplicable injury to the main player in this situation, it will be a big loss.
There is also a purpose, which is to give the substitutes and young players some opportunities, and when the overall situation is decided, it is not bad to give the substitutes a chance to experience and gain experience.
The first half ended with frantic cheers and applause from the home fans, and after a fifteen-minute break, both teams returned to the pitch.
When Atletico Madrid made their reappearance, everyone noticed a change in the home team's lineup. Cork and Perea have been sidelined, replaced by Vazquez and Juanfran respectively.
Juanfran has been away from the field for a long time, but the fans have not forgotten him or his contribution to the team last season, so when they saw him on the field, the fans stood up and applauded him to pay their respects.
And Juanfran is also very worthy of these applause, he is very active on the field, he can't see that he is a little timid because he has been injured, he does not dare to make a move, he runs on the field very actively, almost sprinting back and forth on the right side of the road.
Seeing his teammates so energetic, Qin Shou also "consciously" gave up the right passage and simply returned to the middle. Give the right corridor entirely to Juanflán.
Juanfran, who has not officially played a professional game for more than half a year, is really suffocated, this release is like a dissatisfied little daughter-in-law, extremely energetic, seeing Qin Shou give way to the right side, he nodded to Qin Shou gratefully, and then continued to sprint up and down.
Thanks to Juanfran's activity, at the beginning of the second half, Atletico Madrid's attack on the right side was particularly sharp, and Juanfran disturbed Napoli on the left side, in the 51st minute. Juanfran received Qin Shou's transfer ball, dribbled the ball straight to the baseline again, and then completed a high-quality cross near the baseline.
Costa grabbed the first spot, but the opposition centre-back was very close to him, rubbing the ball against the back of his head and sweeping it in front of goal in the confusion.
Qin Shou fought out of the crowd and shot a tackle that fell to the ground, sending the football into the Napoli gate for the fourth time.
4:0。
If you say that when you score the third goal, the big picture is decided. Then after Qin Shou scored twice, there was basically no suspense at all.
Benitez is still the same "zombie face" that has not changed for thousands of years, and his joy and anger cannot be seen from his face, but his clenched fists show his anger and unwillingness.
I came with a lot of hope before the game. As a result, just over halfway through the game, the team was defeated. Is there really such a big gap between imagination and reality? Could it be that the gap between Napoli and the La Liga champions has reached this point?
Halfway through the game, we were able to score four goals, which Nima can't even do at Juventus!
Benitez is well aware. It's not that there is such a big difference between the team and Atletico, but because of various other factors, such as the momentum of the home field. For example, luck, for example, your own tactics are wrong...... He is also the coach who has led the La Liga team to win the league title, and he knows that the reason why he was beaten face today is a big factor is luck, because Atletico Madrid is crazy and the ball is dribbling, so he can play how to play.
But no matter how unwilling, there is no hope of a comeback in this game, and Benitez is also about to give up. Reality is not a novel, one or two goals in the half, you can grit your teeth and fight again, and four goals behind at halftime, it is estimated that only the protagonist in the novel can stage a reversal miracle.
A miracle like the magical night of "Istanbul", once is enough, no matter how many, are you really a cabbage on the side of the road?
Benitez is not an idiot, the game has come to this point, there is no need to fight hard, there are six Champions League group stage games, losing this one, there are five chances, they are not desperate enough to not qualify.
So the decision made by Benitez is to conserve his strength and energy and fight for the next games.
Napoli were quick to make a substitution.
Hemsik and Edinson Cavani were substituted in quick succession, with Djemayli and Inle coming in for them. These are two players who are known for their defensive skills, Benitez's calculation is obvious, he has failed, he conceded it, but he didn't want to concede again. If he loses again, it is estimated that he will return to Italy, not to mention the city of Naples, and it is estimated that the fans of the entire Apennine Peninsula will drown him with spit - losing so badly, it is really a shame for Italian football!
Napoli threw themselves into the towel, and Atletico Madrid should have no idea of continuing to chase and fight. However, Atletico Madrid's goal luck today was indeed so good that it exploded, Vazquez passed the ball in the front court, and the result was big, Qin Shou subconsciously forced it, and the Napoli player who cleared the siege actually kicked the ball into the air and leaked the ball directly, and Qin Shou suddenly formed a single-knife trend.
The opponent has been beaten so badly, Qin Shou originally wanted to slow down the pace, but ...... This meat is all in the mouth, how can you not eat it?
Anyway, Napoli is so unlucky, losing four is also losing, losing five is also losing, and it's not bad for this one, right?
So Qin Shou sprinkled another handful of salt on Napoli's wound without psychological burden - he didn't even see the goalkeeper who hit him, and he shot directly with his foot, De Sanctis stood in place and just sideways his neck, and the football drilled into the door of Napoli for the fifth time.
5:0!
Calderón Stadium is completely in a state of madness. Before the game, the fans imagined that the team would win the game, but before the game was 60 minutes, the team was already leading by five goals, which was too easy, this is the rhythm of slaughter!
Qin Shou, who scored a hat trick, didn't go overboard to celebrate, just raised his hand and clapped his hands, but his teammates were more excited than him, rushing over and jumping and shouting.
The third goal was too easy, it was completely like picking it up for nothing, and Napoli had already been beaten to the point that they couldn't find the north, so don't rub salt in their wounds, the football circle is so big, and they have to go to Italy again, look up and don't look down, don't make a grudge.
Qin Shou thought in his heart "Hello, I'm good, everyone", but in fact, Napoli has given up this game, and you still have to score a hat trick, and this face is all beaten by you, "pop~", isn't this a feud?
After the game restarted, Napoli was completely red-eyed, and no matter what foul or not, as long as Atletico Madrid got the ball, he rushed up and dragged and kicked, completely with the mentality of "revenge" - anyway, the face has long been lost, and Lao Tzu will not play football anymore, just to repair you, what can you do?
And Qin Shou was the object of key care, and in just two or three minutes, he was put down twice.
In the past few minutes, the referee suddenly became the busiest person on the field, the whistle kept sounding, and the yellow cards were issued two in a row.
But, of course, Naples is really on fire, they don't care about the rest, if they can prevent it, if they can't prevent it, then let you lie down!
There was a lot of boos and shouts from the scene, but Napoli completely ignored it and went its own way - I had lost so badly, and I didn't let people vent, is there any reason for this?
Simeone was still hesitant to replace Qin Shou, after all, Qin Shou's physical fitness is not a problem, and the attendance rate has always been the highest in the team, and it is rare to be replaced halfway, but looking at the current scene, Simeone has nothing to worry about, and with a wave of his hand, he replaced Qin Shou with Suarez.
Qin Shou enjoyed a standing ovation and cheers from the fans when he left the game, Atletico Madrid established the victory early in this game, Qin Shou contributed a lot, and his hat trick was enough to make the fans addicted.
Although the smell of gunpowder still existed in the subsequent game, the departure of Qin Shou, the "culprit", still calmed down the mood of the Napoli players, but it was not so hot directly.
The game gradually flattened.
In the 81st minute, Pandev took advantage of a corner kick opportunity and scored with a header, which was considered to save a little face for the visitors.
However, Atletico really went crazy today, and in stoppage time, Vazquez fired a long-range shot to turn the deficit into five goals.
The final score of the game was fixed at 6:1, and Atletico Madrid got the Champions League off to a good start with a hearty win at home.
Qin Shou was also voted the best player of the game after the game, and his three goals helped him temporarily rank first in the Champions League scorer list this season.
