When Atletico Madrid scored in the opening four minutes, many Atletico Madrid fans began to look forward to a comeback at the Calderón Stadium.

This was also evidenced by the subsequent development of the game.

Atletico Madrid scored another goal to level the aggregate score at 2:3, just one goal away.

Atletico Madrid will make history by reversing Borussia Dortmund with their backs to the bottom of the game at home.

But at this time, Zhou Yi stepped forward and spoiled the good things of Atletico Madrid, pouring cold water on the heads of all Atletico Madrid fans.

Calderón Stadium, which seemed to be burning red before, cooled down in an instant, and then was shrouded in a white mist.

Jurgen Klopp jumped high on the sidelines, pumped his fists and roared, then hugged everyone around him, feeling as if the match was over with this scoreline.

In stark contrast to him is Atletico Madrid's head coach Simeone.

When Dortmund attacked, Simeone was holding a water bottle and preparing to drink water, but when he saw Dortmund attacking, he just held the bottle instead of pouring it into his mouth. It's a good thing he did, otherwise he would have choked now......

But even so, Simeone is not much better now - when he conceded the ball, he angrily slammed the water bottle on the ground, only to be under pressure, the water sprayed out of the bottle, and Simeone couldn't dodge it and was shot in the face......

Some water splashed into Simeone's eyes, making him embarrassed.

"The first half was about to end, the last minute...... Lost a ball. Atletico Madrid's luck ......," the Spanish commentator sighed helplessly.

Of course, he hopes that Atletico Madrid can eliminate Dortmund and reach the Champions League final, and then complete the "Madrid derby" on the Champions League final stage, which is the pride of Spanish football and the city of Madrid.

When Atletico Madrid chased two goals in a row, he believed it could be done.

But now, that target is quickly moving away from him......

Soon after, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half.

The telecast captured the expressions on the faces of the players of both teams as they left the field.

The Dortmund players had not yet come out of the excitement of scoring and walked off the pitch with smiles on their faces.

And the Atletico Madrid players were quite high-spirited, as if nothing in this world could stop them. As a result, the group was blinded by Zhou Yi's ball, and everyone drooped their heads and hurried towards the passage, unwilling to stay on the court for a long time.

Simeone turned around early and entered the tunnel first, seemingly unwilling to stay for a second.

"Zhou Yi's goal changed the situation of the whole game, and Simeone's wishful thinking may be about to be replayed......" He Ping said. "The aggregate score became 4:2, and Dortmund also had an away goal, and the most important thing is that Zhou Yi's goal was a very heavy blow to the morale of the Atletico Madrid players. How is Simeone going to deal with it?"

※※※

In the dressing room at Atletico Madrid, Simeone is boosting the morale of his players – a top priority.

'Of course, we conceded a goal, which is bad, but I don't think it's fatal. We still have a full forty-five minutes to rewrite the results. If we can score two goals in the opening game, why can't we score more?" Simeone looked at his players, he stared into the eyes of each player, instilling in them his courage and confidence.

"Before the game, everyone thought that we were eliminated, we didn't have any chances, but we answered them with the opening two goals! Now this goal is nothing more than to make the miracle we have created more brilliant and gorgeous! I believe in you, there is no difficulty to defeat you! Because you are brave fighters! And soldiers will fight until the last moment!"

The flame of the Atletico Madrid player was ignited little by little by this charismatic manager......

Meanwhile, in the Dortmund dressing room, Klopp was critical of his players' performance in the first half. Yes, that's right, despite Borussia Dortmund having just pulled a goal back, the manager criticised the team's performance.

“...... Let's not talk about the goal at the end, you guys acted like shit in the first half. Being rushed by Atletico Madrid is like a sissy, and she will only cover her eyes and scream. What happened to those two goals conceded? Is it a reflection of the level gap between us and Atletico Madrid? Even if this is their home stadium, there is no reason for such a disgusting situation! I reminded you, I took so long before the game to tell you what kind of opponent you were going to face, but what was the result?"

Klopp spread his hands and tilted his head to look at his players.

"I don't want to see you panic in the second half! cheer me up, there's forty-five minutes, anything can happen, but I don't want you to try anything else!"

After teaching the whole team, Klopp looked at Yan Min and said in a seemingly casual tone: "Well done." ”

Although it was a very casual tone, Yan Min still showed an excited expression on his face.

Being praised and recognized by the manager is one of the motivations for every player's efforts.

But Klopp immediately added: "I'm not talking about the assist. ”

This made Yan Min feel strange, and he showed a puzzled expression.

But he didn't dare to ask, he was scolded by the head coach just now, and he didn't dare to touch this mold.

He could only frown, pondering what the manager meant.

His breakthrough in the first half of Zhou Yi's assist was his most beautiful breakthrough. So he took it for granted that Klopp praised him for his performance in assisting Zhou Yi.

But now the manager says no, what is it?

It wasn't until the end of the halftime break that the players returned to the court that Yan Min's doubts were answered.

Zhou Yi noticed that Yan Min had been frowning until he was definitely struggling with this question, so he took the initiative to find him and said to him, "Do you wonder why the head coach said that?"

Yan Min nodded, and then said all the doubts in his heart.

“...... I think the breakthrough I assisted you was the most beautiful, the manager said I did a good job, but he didn't say that, so what else could it be? I didn't work out that before......

"Klopp is talking about your previous performances. ”

"Huh?" Yan Min couldn't understand it at all. What is the reason why the highlights are not praised, but those who have failed?

"When we were pressed and beaten, it was your stubborn impact that helped us fight for room to maneuver. If it weren't for your failed attempts, how could Atletico Madrid choose to recycle in the final stage? If they don't recycle, how can there be a goal for me later?" Zhou Yi patted Yan Min on the shoulder. "So Klopp is complimenting you for your courage to try and not to give up. ”

Being explained by Zhou Yi like this, Yan Min first tilted his head and thought about it, and then suddenly realized.

"So I'm not a wasted opportunity if I play like this?"

"Of course!" Zhou Yi said. "But there's never a chance that anyone can take every opportunity, and it's good to be able to take one out of ten opportunities. The important thing is not the result of failure, and the important thing is not to make mistakes, but to learn from mistakes and find the path to success—doesn't that sound like chicken soup?" Zhou Yi asked Yan Min rhetorically.

Yan Min nodded reflexively at first, but immediately shook his head again: "No, I think you're right, Zhou Yi." ”

"That's what it is. Zhou Yi gladly accepted Yan Min's praise for him. "Those who are afraid of making mistakes can only stand still, and if they stand still, they will never reach the end. In the second half, you have to play like in the first half, when you have the ball, as long as you have the opportunity, you are determined to move forward and don't be afraid of mistakes. ”

Yan Min nodded vigorously: "I listen to you!"

Zhou Yi smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "You don't have to listen to me when you get on the field, listen to your own." ”

Yan Min nodded and asked, "Will Atletico Madrid fight back?"

"Nonsense. Zhou Yi gave him a blank look. "Is Simeone such an easy person to give up? So Atletico Madrid will definitely come back in the second half, and it will be crazy to fight back, and then they will have a lot of space in the backline, and that's your chance. ”

Yan Min's eyes lit up when Zhou Yi said it, and he seemed to have seen his heroic appearance in the second half of Atletico Madrid......
