Although the fans are here to support Wansheng, Wansheng is the head coach of Atletico Madrid, and supporting Wansheng is actually equivalent to supporting the whole team, supporting each of their Atletico Madrid players, and whenever they perform well in training, it will also cause fans to shout excitedly.

That feels...... It's cool!

However, the 'very cool' time was limited, and the next afternoon, Atletico Madrid played a friendly match with Hong Kong Kitchee.

This is an exhibition match of a purely commercial nature!

Wansheng's requirements for players are to try their best to play, play how they want, their purpose is not to win, but to make the game more beautiful, so that fans feel that buying tickets is worth the ticket price, for this commercial match, Hong Kong Kitchee paid 1.2 million euros.

The competition fee that Hong Kong Kitchee came up with is certainly not comparable to that of Osaka Sakura, but considering their financial ability, in fact, they have done their best.

Last season, Hong Kong Kitchee finished first in the Hong Kong League One for the first time in 47 years.

Over the past 47 years, in the prosperous era of the Hong Kong League created by Nanhua, Seiko and Bulova, and in the era of the Oriental Dynasty and Yuyuan and Dawn competing for hegemony, Hong Kong football has continued to develop, with prosperity and decline, and the final championship trophy with Kitchee's 7-2 away victory over the Hong Kong Club has returned to the hands of the veteran team that had been mixed in Group C at the low ebb, which is also the fourth time that the '80-year-old' Kitchee has won the highest honor in the Hong Kong League.

As the champion of the Hong Kong League One, Hong Kong Kitchee's budget is not very high.

According to Ta Kung Pao, Hong Kong Kitchee's budget for next season is only 10 million Hong Kong dollars, equivalent to 8.1 million yuan.

That's not even as much as the appearance fee paid by Atletico Madrid to play in Hong Kong.

Of course, Hong Kong Kitchee will not lose money, just the tickets sold and TV rights, they can almost earn back, and there will even be some surplus, but in any case, the budget of 10 million Hong Kong dollars is not high, and it is not even better than the annual salary of an ordinary player in Atletico Madrid.

Hong Kong Kitchee's lineup is not bad, head coach Gambal has a very good ability to lead the team, Australian stalwart Michael and Spanish striker Rubido are the main core players, Kitchee is most optimistic about the youth army, Su Yang, Australian defender Ai Yun, former Shanghai Shenhua midfielder Huang Yang and Shen Liang, Li Xiaoyang, Zhang Shicheng, who graduated from Tagorewan International School, are all regarded as potential stars in the future, of course, in any case, Hong Kong Kitchee cannot be compared with Atletico Madrid, even if they are well prepared, Atletico Madrid is free to play, The two sides are also not on the same level at all.

The highlight of the game was the performance of the star players of Atletico Madrid.

Mesut Ozil was quite active, and his continuous breakthroughs on the left flank drew cheers from the pitch; J Rodriguez has an urgent desire to perform, and his dribbling makes the Hong Kong Kitchee players powerless at all; Kevin De Bruyne also played well on the left flank, he didn't dribble much on his own, but his accurate long-range passes still showed everyone the strength of the Belgian star.

The above three basically represent the midfield strength of Atletico Madrid.

Atletico Madrid strikers Falcao and Diego Costa both played.

Falcao is not yet familiar with the team's tactics, but his individual skills are strong enough to show in the game; Diego Costa is a different type entirely, he hardly plays individually, but when he has the chance, he becomes the most dangerous player, Costa has scored two goals for Atletico Madrid in just seven minutes, and he is a nuclear striker.

Seeing Diego Costa's performance, Wan Sheng smiled bitterly...... Swapped him out.

It's a commercial exhibition match!

Diego Costa's style is really not very suitable for commercial acting, he is a professional goalscorer.

Diego Costa also put a lot of pressure on Falcao, who is worth 40 million euros and thinks he must be the main striker of Atletico Madrid, but what he didn't expect was that last season's 'Aguero's substitute', the efficiency in front of the goal was so high, looking at Diego Costa's technical ability, it is enough to stand in the main position in the top team, that is, if he can't perform quickly, it is normal for Diego Costa to replace him.

Atletico Madrid's back line didn't show much.

Wan Sheng brought all the substitutes on the bench, with Boateng, Ujfarusi, Raphael Varane and Luis Perrea all on the line, and the other three played the whole game in addition to Oujfarusi.

Although it is all substitute lineups, Atletico Madrid has not worked hard at all in defense, but it is much better than Hong Kong Kitchee's lineup, many times, Hong Kong Kitchee attacks dangerous positions, and the Atletico Madrid defenders next to them do not take the initiative to defend, in this case, Hong Kong Kitchee only scored two goals in the whole game.

Atletico Madrid's midfield and forward line have a considerable advantage, and the players did not pay much attention to the goal, and also scored six goals in the game.

With Falcao's volley into the net, the score was fixed at 6-2 and Atletico Madrid won the eventual victory.

Of course, victory doesn't matter.

After the game, the players of both sides exchanged jerseys and Atletico Madrid held a special star signing session.

Wan Sheng also participated in this signing meeting, so many Hong Kong fans welcomed him, and he could not always stay behind the scenes.

At the end of the game, Wan Sheng had dinner with the chairman of Hong Kong Chi Kit Club, the chairman of the Hong Kong Football Association and the senior executives of the Hong Kong government, during which they talked about the development of Hong Kong football and other topics.

Hong Kong attaches great importance to Wansheng.

There was also a recorder accompanying him, who recorded Wansheng's words with a recording and was afraid of missing a pen at any time.

Wan Sheng was a little embarrassed.

After the commercial match in Hong Kong, the whole team of Atletico Madrid took a plane to Shanghai, according to the itinerary, the whole team stayed in Shanghai for 2 days, during which they played a warm-up match with Shanghai Shenhua, and then went to Beijing to prepare for the Spanish Super Cup with Barcelona.

Atletico Madrid's trip to Shanghai was uneventful.

For Atletico Madrid, the key is to get the word out.

In parallel with the commercial competition, Atlético de Madrid is recruiting domestic university students.

This work is carried out simultaneously by several subsidiaries of the Tagorewan Group, and the recruitment of Atletico Madrid is even more special, because the club is located in Spain, and the graduates who come to apply will also work in Spain.

Atletico Madrid's recruitment in China is part of the promotion work and part of the club's development strategy – to continue to expand the commercial sector.

The commercial department of a club will decide the commercial development of the club, and the commercial department of Manchester United Club is much larger than the athletic department, with hundreds of staff members, all of whom work for the commercial development and commercial sponsorship of the Manchester United brand.

The commercial department of Atletico Madrid is much more pitiful, with only 30 or so people, and it is not even as large as the number of players in the team, so you can see the difference.

The expansion of the club's commercial department should be completed from two aspects, one is to recruit business development talents from all over the world, and the other is to cultivate its own football business talents.

Recruitment in China is the second type, recruiting capable graduates to supplement the club's commercial department, and at the same time, making the club more 'Chinese', to strengthen the club's influence in China, so as to drive the club's commercial operation income.

Atletico Madrid's commercial match in Shanghai is the beginning of the club's strategy to expand the commercial department, and the club's recruitment in colleges and universities also starts from the 'Shanghai station', and then goes to 11 cities such as Shenzhen, Guangzhou, and Beijing.

With the commercial competition in Shanghai over, Atletico Madrid's 'Asia Tour' has only one last stop left, which is Beijing, the capital of China.

What will be played in Beijing is not a commercial match, but the most important match for Atletico Madrid in August, the Spanish Super Cup.

The Spanish Super Cup is an annual Spanish football tournament between the Spanish Primera Liga winner and the Spanish Copa del Rey winner.

According to the rules of the Spanish Super Cup, the La Liga and Copa del Rey are won by the same team, and the opposing team is replaced by the runners-up of the Copa del Rey.

Last season, Atletico Madrid won the La Liga title and the Spanish Copa del Rey, so this Super Cup is played by Atletico Madrid against Copa del Rey runner-up Barcelona.

Unlike the Italian Super Cup and the English Community Shield, under the normal rules, the Spanish Super Cup is a two-game points system for home and away, that is, the game must be played twice at both stadiums, and the Super Cup trophy will be attributed to the final score and goal difference.

Under such rules, it is certainly impossible to move the competition abroad.

Spanish football has always been committed to bringing their competition abroad, but the president of the Spanish league, Javier Tebas, once said that "due to bureaucratic obstacles, La Liga matches are unlikely to be moved abroad in the near future." ”

In order to promote La Liga, Tebas has been advocating for some games to be played abroad in order to attract foreign fans, but the "AS" quoted the La Liga president as saying that this goal is not possible at the moment.

"Marca" analyzed, "Tebas is suggesting that the Spanish Super Cup will probably set this precedent." ”

So in March this year, the Spanish league began to discuss the possibility of transferring the Super Cup abroad, which faced the need to modify the rules of the Super Cup, but the rules of the two teams of the cup are easy to modify.

Speaking to the media, Tebas said: "It's very difficult to get La Liga to play abroad because it requires FIFA authorization. ”

'But even if we can't take the league out of the country, we can get the Spanish team to play abroad and I can sign an agreement tomorrow to move the Spanish Super Cup abroad.

The AS notes that the pre-season match, which will be played against the league champions and the Copa del Rey winners, requires the consent of the Spanish Football Federation, which "has jurisdiction over this cup." ”

The Spanish Football Federation undoubtedly has the same considerations as the Spanish League Committee, because the interests are what any department will strive for, and the promotion of Spanish competitions abroad will only benefit the development of Spanish football.

Since last year, after Atletico Madrid was acquired by Chinese capital, the Spanish Football Federation has begun to consider some cooperation with Chinese football to expand the influence of Spanish football in China.

This Spanish Super Cup is your chance.

After continuous discussions, consultations and meetings, the Spanish Football Federation and the Spanish League Committee finally finalized the rules of this year's Spanish Super Cup to a decisive event, and moved the venue to overseas, and also expanded the influence of Spanish football.

This is also the first time in the history of Spanish football.

――――

This match is very important for Wan Sheng.

Since becoming a football coach, Wansheng has only led the team to the motherland for commercial matches, and has never played regular matches.

This is the first time!

At the same time, this Spanish Super Cup is also the influence of Wansheng - if it were not for his influence, Spanish football would not have moved the tournament abroad so quickly, not to mention, directly with China.

The Spanish Football Federation and the Spanish League Committee have considered it comprehensively, and this Spanish Super Cup, with the top technical Barcelona and Atletico Madrid, will definitely deepen the understanding of Spanish football among Chinese fans, and also enhance the image of Spanish football in China, in addition, this cooperation can also bring many commercial benefits to the Super Cup.

Playing the Super Cup in China is harmless for the Spanish Football Federation.

It's not the same with both teams.

Atletico Madrid doesn't care, they already have a 'trip to China' plan, and they will come to Beijing to participate in the game, while Barcelona is a little reluctant, although the Spanish Football Federation also gave them 2 million euros to play a fee, but 2 million euros can buy the player's condition? Can you buy to reverse the effects of jet lag on a player's body? What's more, the Super Cup originally had a share of 1 million euros, in fact, all the bad effects only brought less than 1 million euros, Barcelona is naturally very reluctant, but even if they are famous, they can't screw the Spanish Football Federation, unless they don't want the Super Cup trophy.

The Chinese Football Association is also very fond of asking foreign teams to exchange football, and they see it as a way to improve Chinese football.

Although this has not done much in history, it can at least divert the attention of domestic fans.

This year's Chinese Football Association is not having a good time!

One after another football-related high-ranking officials stepped down, one after another shady scenes were exposed, officials, club management, referees, and then the players on the field, the Chinese Super League broke out a lot of insiders, and the people involved were arrested and imprisoned, which made many fans happy at the same time, but also made the prestige of Chinese football fall to the bottom, and few fans have confidence in them anymore.

At this time, you must divert your attention!

Just in time for Spain to exchange football with China, the Chinese Football Association immediately agreed to Spain's request, and there was no bargaining in terms of appearance fees, and it was directly finalized! (To be continued.) )
