Chapter 236: At the critical moment, you still have to trust the young general!
Like any other team, there are 'factions' within Atletico Madrid. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Wan Sheng as the head coach is very strong, and the 'factions' within Atletico Madrid are not so obvious, but the daily training of players, the dressing room, and other life can also be roughly divided into two factions: one can be called the 'European Union', and the other is the 'South American faction'.
Pie lives up to its name.
EU players such as Mesut Ozil, Isco, De Gea, and Klose naturally belong to the 'EU faction', while players such as Falcao, J. Rodriguez, and Thiago Silva naturally belong to the 'South American faction'.
Players such as Wang Qiuming and Diego Costa do not have a fixed faction, and they have a good relationship with the players of both factions.
Maurice is the special one.
Morris is 'EU-fed' by nationality, but any player in the team has a good relationship with him because his position is unshakable, not to mention that Morris also acts as an 'assistant coach' in many training sessions.
In this case, any player will have a lot of respect for Morris.
Mansheng was happy to see Morris in prestige.
Morris will definitely be part of the coaching staff in the future, and having such a 'world superstar' as an assistant coach can also help the team do a lot of training-related things, just like Bergkamp once was.
After Bergkamp left, Wansheng actually had a headache.
Wan Sheng and Diamares are not 'practical' coaches, Fan Zhiyi used to be a professional player, but his vision as a professional player cannot guide the world's top players at all.
Morris is different.
His technical strength is among the best in the world, even if it is Ozil, Falcao and others, there is a certain gap between him and Morris.
Morris is good enough to coach any professional player in terms of individual skills.
However, Wan Sheng still hopes that Morris can play for two more years, and Morris's skills, strength, and experience will be of great help to any team. When Morris is able to play, Wan Sheng will be very relieved.

In the end, Atletico Madrid beat Real Sociedad 2-0 away.
When the referee blew the final whistle, Atletico Madrid fans began to cheer excitedly, and they have set a record in the league since last season - 58 games unbeaten in the league.
Although Wan Sheng led Manchester City to create a great record of 64 rounds of unbeaten, it belonged to Wan Sheng personally and Manchester City Club, and had nothing to do with Atletico Madrid, and now this 58-round unbeaten streak belongs to Atletico Madrid.
The meaning is different, and the feeling is naturally different.
In the future, Atletico Madrid will have an additional record of 58 unbeaten games in the history of Atletico Madrid, which will become the pride of all Atletico Madrid fans, and more importantly, they will have the opportunity to break the record and truly create the greatness of their own team.
The players on the Atletico Madrid bench all rushed onto the pitch excitedly.
The voice of Fernandos SΓ‘nchez Bob, broadcaster of Spanish National Sports Television, reverberates in the television set --
"It's game over! Atletico Madrid won 2-0 away at Real Sociedad. This is Atletico's 16th league win this season and the 20th unbeaten in the 20th round, plus last season's 38 rounds, in La Liga, Atletico have been unbeaten in 58 consecutive rounds! β
"This is a great record!"
"At present, in the history of the five major leagues, the longest unbeaten record is the 64 rounds of unbeaten unbeaten created by Wansheng led by Manchester City, and the second place is the 58 rounds of unbeaten unbeaten created by AC Milan.
"Just by looking at the unbeaten record in the five major leagues, you can know what a good manager Wansheng is, and now he leads the team to play well, but he can only catch up with the record he has set......
"Undoubtedly, leading Atletico Madrid to create a 58-game unbeaten record is nothing to celebrate for Wan Sheng, but it is different for Atletico Madrid, this is a record that belongs to Atletico Madrid, and all Atletico Madrid fans have reason to cheer for it!"
ββ¦β¦β
At the same time, the stadium became very lively, and a group of reporters rushed into the stadium to interview the coaches and players of Atletico Madrid.
Wansheng was surrounded in the middle.
A group of reporters surrounded Wan Sheng, wanting him to talk about his feelings at the moment, Wan Sheng shrugged his shoulders without caring at all, waved his hand and said, "It's not a big deal, it's just a record, it's not the first time, as long as a new record is not created, there is nothing to celebrate." β
"Maybe you should wait until next month to do the interview, maybe we'll set a new record!"
After that, Wan Sheng did not answer the question about the record.
Wan Sheng's statement is a bit arrogant, but no one questions him, because the longest unbeaten record in the five major leagues was created by him, and many people understand Wan Sheng's thoughts, after all, he once led Manchester City to do it, and now he is not so excited to do it again.
Just because Wansheng doesn't care doesn't mean the media doesn't care.
The Spanish media are happy to hype Atletico Madrid's continued unbeaten run, because it surpasses AC Milan's record, and on the other hand, it can also show that Atletico Madrid has surpassed AC Milan.
It's interesting.
In the minds of most people, Atletico Madrid is still only the 'third pole' team in La Liga, although they continue to defeat Real Madrid and Barcelona, but most of them think that it is only temporary, as a century-old giant, Real Madrid and Barcelona will beat Atletico Madrid again sooner or later, and then La Liga will return to the situation of two strong rivalries.
A team in La Liga's 'third pole' can surpass the best club in Serie A, AC Milan, doesn't this show the strength of Spanish football?
That's why the Spanish media made a big report.
There are also a lot of reports from the Italian media, and "Milan Sports Newspaper" said sourly that Atletico Madrid has been unbeaten for 58 rounds, which shows that the comprehensive competitiveness of La Liga is declining, "In addition to Real Madrid and Barcelona, other teams can hardly pose a threat to Atletico Madrid!" In the face of Atletico Madrid, even Real Madrid and Barcelona performed very sluggishly, which is the biggest reason why Atletico Madrid can create a 58-round unbeaten streak. β
But for Wansheng, everyone can only praise.
"This young Chinese has achieved success in English football, in the heyday of English football, he led the team to play 64 rounds unbeaten, after going to Madrid in 2010, he succeeded again in Spanish football, Atletico Madrid's results are proof, perhaps the most headache is as Atletico Madrid's sworn enemies Real Madrid, first Barcelona, then Atletico Madrid, their road to re-emergence has become far away......"
When the Italian media reported on Wan Sheng, they actually didn't feel good.
For Wansheng's leading results, they have to praise; And for Wansheng to lead the team to break the unbeaten record set by AC Milan in a row, they are going to grit their teeth.
Once, when AC Milan created a 58-round unbeaten record, they thought that Na Club was 'unprecedented, unprecedented', I don't know how many media are talking, "There will be no team to surpass in the future!" β
But Wansheng did it.
It is not enough for Wansheng to lead Manchester City to create a 64-round unbeaten record, and now he has led Atletico Madrid to create a 58-round unbeaten record, as a 'pioneer' AC Milan was surpassed once, and it seems that it is about to face the 'second time' to be surpassed, AC Milan has become very embarrassed, and the record they created seems to be waiting to be surpassed, the key is that the same coach led the team twice to surpass the record.
So the name of Wansheng resounded in Italian football.
ββββ
When the media reported that Atletico Madrid equaled AC Milan's unbeaten record, Wan Sheng was interviewed by the newspaper "As" and said that it was no big deal to tie the record.
"At the moment the whole team is hoping to surpass the record, 58 rounds, 59 rounds, only one round away."
No one doubts that Atletico Madrid will be able to do it, because it is too simple to achieve this goal, and Atletico Madrid's next opponent is Osasuna, although it is an away game, the suspense of the game is not very big, no matter how you think about it, Osasuna cannot threaten Atletico Madrid.
Even the Italian media think so, they don't care about Atletico Madrid's record anymore, after all, AC Milan's record has been surpassed once, and it is not a big deal to be surpassed a second time? The record of the professional league is like a goddess that can be seen from a distance and cannot be desecrated, after being xxoo by someone once, the worshippers of the goddess will be angry, but if they are xxoo for the second time, they actually don't think it's a big deal.
Since you can't resist, accept it obediently.
Atletico Madrid thinks so too, and many players can't wait to play Osasuna.
Until then, Atletico Madrid will have a Copa del Rey quarter-final tie against Mallorca in the second leg.
With Mallorca two goals behind in the first leg at 3-1, they don't have much chance of coming back home, and no one is even optimistic that they will be able to beat Atletico Madrid on a comeback.
And so it turned out.
At the end of the 90 minutes, the score was 1-1, with Atletico Madrid drawing away at Mallorca, but with the advantage of the first leg, Atletico Madrid still beat Mallorca 4-2 to move closer to the last four of the Copa del Rey.
After this game, it was the game against Osasuna.
Osasuna were under relegation pressure last season, but after sacking Camacho, new boss Didouel Mendilibar led the team to a ninth place finish in the league.
In the new season, the media believes that Osasuna's priority is still relegation, but in reality, Osasuna have done quite well, they are currently seventh in the league and have a good chance of qualifying for next season's Europa League.
Ahead of the game, Osasuna boss Moeldou Mendilibar said, "Atletico want to set a new record of 59 league games unbeaten? That's none of our business! Our goal is to play every game and get every point so that we can have a chance to compete for the top six in the league! β
Osasuna coach Mendilibal's statement still has a lot of support, because Mendilibar has led the team to remarkable results, and Osasuna can have the current results, which has surprised many people.
However, most people are still not optimistic that Osasuna can beat Atletico Madrid at home, which is a bit unrealistic, but the real game proves that Osasuna is capable of doing it.
ββββ
βgooooooooooooooooolοΌοΌοΌβ
"Sora! Enrique Sora! β
"In the 27th minute of the game, Osasuna striker Enrique Sola scored the first goal for the team!"
"In the previous game, the two teams were at a stalemate, Atletico kept pressing in attack, but Osasuna's defense was also very tight, Atletico Madrid did not find too good opportunities, and took advantage of a quick counter-attack, Sora personally dribbled the ball away from Godin to score the ball
οΌ β
"1-0, Osasuna takes the lead!"
Seeing the Osasuna players celebrating wildly with impunity, the expressions of the Atletico Madrid players were a little dull, and they couldn't believe that the team was actually behind in the score.
'It has to be said that Atletico as a whole is not doing very well, some of the players seem to be sleepwalking, their minds are not on the game at all. Before the game, many media outlets were reporting on Atletico's unbeaten run, and perhaps they also wanted to remain unbeaten and all their minds were focused on breaking the record. β
The camera lens was adjusted to the coach's seat, and I saw Wan Sheng standing on the sidelines, his face was pale, "Wan Sheng may not have expected that the team would perform so poorly." β
Wansheng was a bit of a surprise.
He didn't think it would be too difficult against Osasuna, but he didn't expect the opponent to be so strong, and his own players were very poor, as the commentator said, they all seemed to be thinking about breaking the record, and their minds were not on the game at all.
So at halftime, Wan Sheng yelled at everyone, "I don't know what you guys were doing in the first half!" Are you guys competing? Or an outing? What I saw was an outing! β
"But we're not here to travel! It's Osasuna, it's scenic, but we're here to compete! Don't think about what records are not recorded, I don't care, what I care about is your performance! It's a league game, and if we lose it, we might have to worry about the league standings! β
"Remember, we are looking for victory, not undefeated! I need three points, not one, the undefeated! See-! Cheer me up, get serious! Don't let your opponents underestimate you! β
Wan Sheng said that he directly replaced two people - Diego Costa and Godin.
In the last game, Diego Costa also performed very well, and Wansheng still felt that he would use this kind of general at a critical time, but this time Diego Costa's performance was not very good, he didn't seize several opportunities in a row, and he was completely sleepwalking.
It's the same with Godin.
As a defender, the key is to defend well, Godin has been involved in the game frequently, resulting in the team's instability at the back, and at the same time, his own defensive tasks have not been done well, and he can easily let the opposing striker shake over.
The two big generals went down, and Wan Sheng replaced two young players - Wang Qiuming and Raphael Varane.
Moment of Truth...... It's still important to trust the youngsters. (To be continued.) )
