Two days have passed quickly, and Real Sociedad's loss to Real Madrid, like a meal just eaten, has been forgotten, and now people are more concerned about how Real Madrid will eat this next meal.

It's Atletico Madrid, not Real Sociedad, so it's a tough opponent to play against, there's no doubt about that.

Atletico Madrid, who were even more nervous than Real Madrid, had their players grim faces when they got off the bus, and then walked into the dressing room without saying a word, waiting for Simeone's arrangement.

Speaking before the game, Simeone referred to the match between Real Sociedad and Real Madrid, laughing: "Some people think that Real Sociedad can't win against Real Madrid, and we can't win, I think it's ridiculous, what do you think? ”

There was a bit of silence below, but it was clear that the players seemed a little unconvinced.

Simeone hits the railroad while it's hot: "Remember the first half of the season? We lost at home to Real Madrid, it was a shame for you, it's a shame for me as a manager, I made a big claim before the game that I could win the game, but I didn't do it, I lost, even though it wasn't bad, but it's a shame to lose. ”

The players raised their heads and looked at Simeone, everyone had a blazing flame in their eyes, after all, this season's Atletico Madrid is different from last season, if you don't have confidence, then how can you win?

"I'll admit, they're powerful, suffocatingly powerful, that's a fact, so what do we do? We have only two options, the first is to simply disarm and surrender. Be a coward! The second is to fight hard, and if we win, we are heroes. We're not cowards if we lose! Isn't it? ”

"That's right!" Finally another player made a sound, in fact, this choice is very simple. Since you admit defeat is also losing, and if you don't admit defeat, there is still the possibility of winning, so you can imagine what to choose.

'This season, the club has given each of you a salary increase, and I think you all know that. What are they doing this for? I don't feel that I owe you anything, but I want you to get a championship back! Now if we want to win the league then the only thing we can do is beat Real Madrid in this game, and if we can't do it then we will lose the league title. A six-point gap might not be a big deal in other leagues, but in La Liga, it's fatal, you know? ”

Everyone nodded, and they knew that Simeone was right, whether it was from the point of view of honor or from the point of view of money, they had a reason not to lose. If they lose, they are sorry for themselves and sorry for the club.

"I don't want to talk about revenge because it's too heavy. What I want to say is, use your best strength, victory or defeat. In one fell swoop! Don't underestimate the enemy! But fear not! Don't treat Lin Yu as a flood beast, just treat him as a stronger player. He's great, but he can't break the rules of physics. Can't do superhuman things, we call him a monster, but it doesn't mean he's a monster, so you know, defending him is actually not as far away as you think, maybe it's difficult, but it's definitely still possible. ”

"For victory!" As the team's new captain, Cork suddenly stood up and shouted.

"For victory!" The rest of the people also stood up and shouted together.

"For glory!"

"For your wallets!"

Looking at the fighting spirit inspired by himself, Simeone nodded slightly, but he was not reassured, fighting spirit is one thing, but the performance on the pitch is another, he can always keep the team fighting high, but he can't go on the field to help the players win.

It's just a pre-game preparation and what happens next depends on the individual performances of the players.

……

When the game started, Atletico Madrid suddenly gushed out like a flood of sluices, that kind of force, that kind of impact, so that Real Madrid, a giant, almost fell into the river.

Even if he didn't fall, he was in a panic, a little overwhelmed by Atletico Madrid, and had to hold the ground with both hands to resist the impact of the flood.

There's no way to fight back, there's no way to attack.

Real Madrid's tactics were suppressed by Atletico Madrid, at least as it seemed from the start of the game.

Real Madrid's goal is on the line.

Atletico Madrid don't play like Barcelona, they pursue shooting accuracy, they will choose to shoot whenever they have the opportunity to shoot, although the probability of scoring is low, but it is more threatening, because you can't tell whether he wants to pass the ball or shoot, and since you can't judge, you can't make a reasonable defense.

It felt like they were flooded, and the Real Madrid players had a feeling of being out of breath.

However, the players of Atletico Madrid have used the power of the flood to constantly put pressure on Real Madrid.

Even if Lin Yu is an aircraft carrier, he will be drowned by this monstrous wave at this time, just like Simone said, he is close to Superman, but he is not Superman after all, at least his performance is still a normal person can achieve, and he has not exceeded that bottom line.

Zidane was a little anxious on the sidelines, because he knew that he had been tricked by Simeone.

Simeone said in an interview with the media before the game that there is only one way to deal with Real Madrid, that is, to defend and counterattack, and no other way is to fight against Real Madrid.

But in fact, he launched a powerful attack from the start, trying to take the advantage into his own hands.

Now Zidane can't do anything about it, he can only call the players to retreat quickly, and first withstand this wave of attacks, after all, although the flood is fierce, it will not last too long, and there will be no problems after this time period.

The key question is whether it can withstand it.

……

In the face of Atletico Madrid's onslaught, Real Madrid's players were obviously a little overwhelmed, after all, it had been a long time. They are all pressed by others, and they have always been so smooth.

Even if you didn't score at the beginning of the last game. But it still has a huge advantage, where is it like this game. At the beginning, I was a little stunned by the opponent's attack.

According to Zidane's command, they should have immediately retreated to defending, but some players did not do so.

The reason is very simple, you can't get over face.

These players feel that Real Madrid is already invincible in Europe and the world, and will they still shrink their heads in the face of Atletico Madrid? Didn't they want to attack, then we would just fight back, what is there to be afraid of.

They may be right, but the problem is when someone else has already set up a machine gun and is waiting for you to charge. If you rush forward, the only possibility is to become someone else's target, and that's just the practice of reckless martial artists.

Although Zidane was in a hurry on the sidelines, the Real Madrid fans in the stands helped at this time, they were cheering for the team, hoping that the team could fight out, which is simply a classic embodiment of not knowing the ball.

The fans are also spoiled, thinking that Real Madrid is invincible, so they should not be pressed and beaten like this. It should be able to be pressed out.

As a result, this kind of wrong thinking spread rapidly, even if Lin Yu and a very small number of players were willing to listen to Zidane, it would be useless, and the team would become very bad if there was no unified thinking.

This kind of thinking is like the temptation of the devil. It's like a little apple in the Garden of Eden, like a beautiful woman in a thin veil.

Until you untie the veil, you won't know it's a woman. It's still a devil, but the temptation will get stronger and stronger.

……

It's not wrong to be confident. There's motivation and yes, Real Madrid are winning all the time. This gives Real Madrid's players a sense of confidence that they can beat their opponents.

But self-confidence doesn't necessarily mean a good thing.

This can be a double-edged sword, when your team is behind, self-confidence may help you succeed and help you kill your opponents, but if you overdo it, the sword will likely plunge into your chest and stab you to death.

There have been many cases of playing with fire and self-immolation in history, and there are also a lot of them on the court.

Fighting spirit is like a burning flame that can allow you to burn your opponents, but it can also burn you to death.

Originally, Simeone's biggest concern was that Real Madrid would retreat to defense, so when he saw Zidane let the team retreat, he was really nervous, but gradually he found out that the players on the field did not do what Zidane said, they were doing their own thing.

Simeone is happy, he is very happy, in this case, if you don't score a goal, you are really sorry for these disobedient players of Real Madrid.

Finally, the flashpoint exploded at that moment.

……

'Juan Mata broke through with the ball, he gave the ball to Isco in the middle, Isco went through, Griezmann in good shape, he plugged in!'

"Shot ——!"

"Nice save! Mignolet's save was wonderful, but the danger wasn't gone yet, because Griezmann's shot was too powerful for Mignolet to hold on to the ball, and he smashed it straight out of the ball, which was a very dangerous thing, what happened next? ”

The Atletico Madrid fans in the stands, as well as the Atletico Madrid fans who had long been suffocated in front of the TV, the anti-Real Madrid coalition began to shout loudly.

"Get one!"

"Get one!"

"Atletico Madrid score one!"

The ball was played the next day by Diego. Costa got on top, but he couldn't shoot, so he passed the ball back to Isco.

'Isco didn't stop the ball, he sent a beautiful through ball again, he showed his best form at Real Madrid against his old club, and it seemed that he was still not happy to be sold by Real Madrid.

Diego. Costa got the ball in front of two Real Madrid defenders before he opted for a shot in the middle of the gap.

"Beautiful! The ball is in! Diego. Costa! Diego. Costa! ”

I have to say that this goal was really beautiful, almost through the cracks, and then hit the goal, even if it was the defensive center-back combination David. Luiz and Raphael Varane were already taking it seriously but couldn't keep the shot out.

Mignolet was even more depressed, when he found the ball, he couldn't make any effective moves, and the only thing he could do was watch the ball crash into the goal.

"Damn it!" Mignolet fell to his knees and threw a hard punch on the ground.

Diego after the goal. Costa took off his clothes and roared as he ran, demonstrating to the Real Madrid fans in the stands.

He was overjoyed, he was able to score a goal at the Bernabeu Stadium, which was not easy, he has been pressed by Lin Yu, pressed by Messi, if he can beat Lin Yu here, then it will undoubtedly be equivalent to overpowering Messi and Suarez.

He's going to prove that he's the best centre-forward!

Yellow?

He doesn't care, isn't it just a yellow card, as a striker, it's not a big deal to get a yellow card a season.

He rushed to the bench and hugged Simeone.

He felt that his coach was too great and too powerful, and he completely calculated Real Madrid's moves, and then developed such a good strategy.

At this time, the rest of the Atletico Madrid players also gathered around, and they wanted to celebrate this beautiful goal, this inspirational goal. (To be continued......)
