"The Sheets Army beat the Bats 3-0 and topped the table for the first time this season"

"Atletico Madrid reached the top, Barcelona's 53 consecutive rounds of La Liga leadership was ended"

Here are the sports headlines in Spain the next day.

Barcelona have been at the top of La Liga since the first round of the league last season, and only now have they been ousted by Atletico Madrid, relying on a goal difference.

I have to say that Barcelona has been really strong in La Liga in recent years, and Mourinho was able to take Real Madrid to grab a La Liga title before, which is definitely a great credit.

This time, Atletico Madrid squeezed out Barcelona and climbed to the top of La Liga, which received a lot of coverage from the Spanish media, and even many other European media reported the news.

In order to celebrate this great progress, Ringer specially posted a Weibo to celebrate.

Ringer posted a list of the current La Liga standings, accompanied by text, which will be overwhelming.

With Ringer's performance in Europe this year, the number of his Weibo fans has exceeded 40 million, and he can be regarded as the top 10 Weibo fans in China.

He posted on Weibo, and soon there were many comments.

"The boss is powerful, and he has surpassed Barcelona."

"Keep working hard and win La Liga this season."

"Boss Lin, why did you go to Europe, and you don't post more on Weibo? Send two more and let us know what you're doing. ”

Just after the end of the 16th round of La Liga, UEFA also held the draw for the last 16 of this season's Champions League in Nyon, and Atletico Madrid was attended by club president Cerezo.

This year's Champions League group stage was not bad, and in general, there are not many cases where a strong team accidentally falls to second place in the group.

Among the eight second-place teams in the group, only Manchester City, AC Milan, and Arsenal are relatively strong. But they fell to second place in the group because there were stronger opponents in the group, and it was not an upset.

However, among the teams that won the group, Atletico Madrid was considered a soft persimmon and the best one to deal with among all the group winners.

The general view is that the reason why Atletico Madrid can easily win the group with high scores is mainly because there is no strong opponent in the same group, so they picked up such a group top.

It does look like that, with six points coming out of the group, and Atletico Madrid's group does look weak.

Asked about the draw in Spain, Ringer said: "We are top of the group and we don't have to worry about the draw, we should worry about the second place. ”

Ringer is confident in Atletico's quality, but not the others.

Atletico Madrid's president, Cerezo, who went to the draw for Nyon, said in front of reporters: "We want to avoid the three strong teams of Manchester City, Arsenal and AC Milan so that we have a good chance of reaching the last eight." ”

Cerezo himself is so weak, and others also treat Atletico as a soft persimmon.

Manchester City chairman Hosni Mubarak told reporters: "It's a regrettable result to be squeezed into second place in the group stage by a narrow margin, but if we can draw Atletico Madrid, we are confident that we can make history." ”

Although Manchester City is a local tycoon, they have never reached the quarterfinals of the Champions League, and if they can score once, they will make team history.

AC Milan's visa-free maniac Galliani also said: "If you can meet Atletico Madrid or Manchester United, it will be a good result. ”

Atletico Madrid are considered the weakest in the first place in the group, while Manchester United are considered the second weakest. Manchester United's current poor record in the Premier League has indeed taken too many points off them.

In the midst of all the disturbances, the draw for the round of 16 of the Champions League has finally come out.

Manchester United v Olympiacos;

Borussia Dortmund vs Zenit St. Petersburg;

Real Madrid vs Schalke 04;

Chelsea v Galatasaray;

Paris Saint-Germain vs Bayer Leverkusen;

Barcelona vs Manchester City;

Bayern Munich vs Arsenal;

Atletico Madrid vs AC Milan.

Cerezo's words became a reverse prophecy, and Atletico happened to draw what he wanted to avoid.

The most interesting result of this draw is the three matchups, Bayern vs. Gunners, Barcelona vs. Manchester City, and Atletico Madrid vs. Milan.

Bayern and Arsenal are both hugely influential giants, this is the only big matchup in the round of 16, and Bayern eliminated Arsenal in the Champions League round of 16 last season, which is also a chance to give Arsenal revenge.

However, Arsenal's form in the last two years may be difficult to resist Bayern's footsteps.

Barcelona vs. Manchester City, Manchester City can be said to be the strongest in the second group, and now it is facing Barcelona, which is also a strong matchup, but on the whole, Barcelona is stronger.

As for the match between Atletico Madrid and Milan, it is considered to be a matchup of equal strength. Although Atletico Madrid has been a little strong this season, it has only only risen after all, AC Milan is an old giant, with a deep heritage, and it is difficult to predict who will win and who will lose on both sides.

It is said that the Italian media was quite happy after learning the results of this draw, AC Milan is already the only seed in Serie A in the knockout round of the Champions League, and Atletico Madrid, the weakest group in the round of 16, then Milan still has a chance and can continue to move forward in the Champions League.

"Milan Sport" even said that AC Milan has a 70% chance of qualifying, and I don't know what bullshit they used to calculate the probability?

I guess I figured it out with my ass.

Atletico Madrid is currently in La Liga against Barcelona Real Madrid is not lagging behind, as long as they play their true strength in the Champions League, AC Milan's current set of squads that have been put together from east to west, do not know what to win?

European media believe that Atletico Milan's group is a five-five situation, this is because Milan has a deep heritage, is the second most Champions League winning team, Atletico Madrid has not played the Champions League knockout round for many years, from coaches to players, most of the team are Champions League rookies, may not play at a normal level, which gives a half-half probability.

"Milan Sports Newspaper" gave a 70% probability of promotion, which is indeed a bit taken for granted.

In addition to the three groups of more watched matchups, the other five groups in the top 16 are considered to be strong and weak, and the highlights are not big.

Of course, Galatasaray's Drogba facing his old club Chelsea, and Manchester City's Chilean engineer playing Barcelona again, are also some small highlights.

※※※

Although the draw for the round of 16 of the Champions League has come out, it will officially start and will have to wait until next spring.

Although the Champions League draw has drawn a not-so-good spot, everything still has to go on, and Atletico Madrid will have to prepare for their own game again.

In the meantime, the Club World Cup in North Africa also continued, with Chinese football club Guangzhou Evergrande, who were playing in the Club World Cup for the first time, were eliminated from the tournament after losing 3-0 to Bayern Munich in the semi-finals.

This is also expected, although some people are hoping for Evergrande to upset, but the word upset is inherently similar to low probability. If you want to be upset, it means that you will have a high probability of failure.

In the end, in the final of the Club World Cup, Bayern defeated the host Casablanca hope 2-0 to win the 2013 Club World Cup.

Evergrande was reversed 2:3 by the South American champion Atletico Mineiro led by Xiao Luo in the battle for third and fourth place, and only won a fourth place.

Ringer also specially posted on Weibo, wishing his old club Bayern to win the championship, and also encouraging Evergrande, who participated in the Club World Cup for the first time.

"Boss, if you stay at Bayern, you can defend the Club World Cup."

Well, there are fans who are worried about him leaving Bayern.

On December 18, in midweek, in the second leg of the Copa del Rey round of 32, Atletico Madrid hosted Santo André.

With a 4-0 win away from home in the first leg, Simeone sent a substitute this time, but Ringer still started.

This kind of game without suspense is not even watched by Atletico Madrid fans.

Ringer only played half the game, got the statistics of one pass and one shot, and helped the team win 3-1, and eliminated the West League team with an aggregate score of 7-1.

With the addition of this goal, Ringer's tally of goals in 2013 reached 47.

However, Ibrahimovic has also been scoring goals in recent times, and his tally has also reached 46, surpassing Messi.

For both sides, there is one last game left in 2013, the last game before the winter break.
