Chapter 483: Opening Kill
In the last 12 games with Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid have won 4, drawn 4 and lost 4, which is worthy of a draw.
Although Barcelona has a record of 7 wins, 4 draws and 1 loss against Atletico Madrid, they will not win easily.
They don't like Atletico Madrid, a team that defends well and fouls a lot.
Atletico Madrid is undoubtedly the strongest spoiler of La Liga titles.
In the eyes of Atletico Madrid fans, Simeone is the man who brought them victory in the Madrid derby.
Before the game even started, the Real Madrid players were warmed up by the home team's fans to a frantic boo.
Coupled with the sultry weather, the players added a little irritability to their hearts.
"Tonight's game, it's hard to play!"
Zidane walked along the sidelines and sighed under his breath.
Coming from a player's background, he knows very well that the environment has a certain degree of influence on the mentality of players.
The sweltering heat will cause the loss of physical energy faster, and the opponent is Atletico Madrid, who is known as the "iron and bloody defense", the battle in the midfield is extremely fierce, and physical strength is the key to determining the outcome of the game.
The derby, before it officially starts, can smell the smell of gunpowder in the air, especially after Atletico Madrid increased their investment this year, they are not limited to being in the title race.
They're going to be the champions.
Strength and conditioning coach Pintus led the players to warm up and walked over.
"Zinedin, everything is ready, everyone is in good shape!"
Zidane smiled and nodded, with Pintus there, he was a lot more reassured.
Soon, players from both sides lined up and were ready to enter.
As rivals in the same city, the relationship between the two teams is very stiff, and the players ignore each other.
Only teammates who are also members of the national team will say hello and talk a few words.
The rest of them all looked at the back of their teammates' heads with indifferent expressions.
Rossi stood last, and the Atletico player alongside him was Diego Costa.
After returning to Atletico Madrid, Shengshi Beauty has become a sharp weapon for the team to attack the city, and Rossi is naturally the main competitor who hinders him from winning the La Liga Golden Boot.
Even if he was only glanced at, Rossi could feel the murderous aura emanating from this fierce center.
Rosie slowly turned his head and greeted him with the same cold gaze.
Before the battle, the momentum cannot be lost.
Without this awareness, let alone the European Golden Boot, even the La Liga Golden Boot will not have your share.
At this point, the captains of both sides stepped forward from the back of the line and interrupted their gaze.
"Luo, come on, this is your blessed land!"
The blessed land that Ramos is referring to is this year's Champions League final, and Rossi has completed the Champions League defense on this stadium.
At the same time, it is also intended to stimulate Atletico Madrid players.
Cork disagreed, shook hands with Costa, and said, "It's up to you to score tonight!" β
The moment he walked out of the players' tunnel, the cheers of more than 70,000 fans suddenly rang out and exploded in his ears.
On both sides of the players' tunnel, the slogans played by the home team's fans are all insults and dissatisfaction with Rossi.
Although Rossi is used to being treated the same way on the regular court, the feeling is even stronger today.
Perhaps, after playing the game for so long, the Madrid derby, can make him really feel the tension, heat and grievances of the derby.
After all, this is a century-old feud between the two teams.
Passed down from father to son, from son to grandchild, from generation to generation, the grievances are deep-rooted.
This kind of grudge with history made it a little difficult for Rossi, who participated in the derby for the first time, to breathe.
Lining up, playing the team song, shaking hands between the two sides, this pre-game ceremony is so familiar, but so unfamiliar.
"Luo, come here!"
Captain Ramos, holding the team flag in one hand and greeting the panicked Rossi in the other.
Now it's a team photo and Ramos calls Rossi to his side.
"I thought you kid wasn't afraid of the sky, but the earth was not afraid!"
Ramos was indeed a little surprised, and Rossi, who could not change his face on penalties in the Champions League final, would not be a little restrained in such a city derby.
Rossi, who was a little embarrassed, took a deep breath, bowed slightly, and put his arm on Ramos's shoulder to complete the group photo.
"Come on!" Ramos pumped him up again.
Rosie's eyes, after regaining some clarity, nodded.
Sergio Ramos and Koke guessed in the centre circle as Real Madrid secured the kick-off and returned to their respective halves to bring their team-mates together for the final pre-match mobilization.
As the players slowly dispersed, the starters and formation of the game were also clear at a glance.
The home team, Atletico Madrid, wore a red and white striped shirt and blue shorts.
Goalkeeper: Oblak.
Defence: Renan Lodi, Jimenez, Savic, Kieran Trippier.
Midfielders: Bitolo, Saul, Thomas Partey, Koke.
Forwards: Diego Costa, Joao Felix.
Away Real Madrid, wearing a white jersey.
Goalkeeper: Thibaut Courtois.
Defence: Nacho, Ramos, Varane, Carvajal.
Defender: Casemiro.
Midfielders: Rossi, Toni Kroos, Valverde, Bale.
Centre-forward: Benzema.
As the owner, Simeone naturally took the initiative to step forward and shake hands with Zidane.
Although the records between the two young coaches were equal, Real Madrid staged a two-second draw in the Champions League final, which made Simeone's Atletico Madrid linger.
While this is just one of more than 200 derbies, Simeone takes it seriously.
It was not only a match for Madrid, but also a direct conversation between the two players in the squad.
At the whistle of referee Jose Gonzalez, Benzema crossed the ball back into the midfield, and the game officially began.
Atletico Madrid's formation is not in a hurry, and all teams know that Simeone's Atletico Madrid, when facing strong teams, will not take the initiative to rush and press, but organize an impregnable defense in their own half.
This is also deeply in the DNA of Atletico Madrid players, arranging the formation unhurriedly.
However, Real Madrid changed their usual steady, and after kick-off, the BBL combination quickly inserted into the opposition half.
As soon as the three of them ran like this, Simeone, who didn't sit down steadily, bounced up, rushed to the sidelines, and signaled the players to quickly return to defense.
But everything was so fast.
After Valverde crossed Kroos, the latter got up and played the ball to the right.
Bale accelerated and raced to the left-back, taking advantage of the fact that the left-back was not yet fully seated, to fight for the spot.
But Jimenez, the left centre-back, quickly got up and tangled up with Bale, pushing and shoving each other.
Neither of them was able to jump to the top, and they also froze in place under each other's interference, leaking the ball in front of them and rolling towards the penalty area.
Karim Benzema and another centre-back, Savic, chased the ball at the same time.
When he was about to go out of the line, Savic got stuck in position and blocked Benzema's path to get the ball out of the line.
But Benzema, when the ball was about to go out of the bottom line, stretched out his right foot, bypassed the defense from the outside, and hooked the ball back.
At this time, Bale, who got rid of the entanglement, quickly cut diagonally, faced the ball that was saved by his teammates, and followed up with a furious shot to the near corner of the goal.
With a powerful shot, goalkeeper Oblak could only rely on instinctive reactions and reached out to block it.
This time, he was lucky.
The ball hit him firmly in the palm and bounced out.
[Real Madrid fast attack! γ
[Bell shoots!] γ
[The ball is saved!] γ
The on-site narrator spoke quickly, and the whole process was simply depicted in an instant.
But before they could breathe a sigh of relief, the tense moment came again.
Rossi appeared in front of goal, in front of the slowly falling ball.
There are no complicated shooting skills, just a tap of the head is needed to score the ball.
Atletico Madrid's defense line suddenly panicked, and everyone had no time to react and stood motionless.
Later, they watched the ball go into the net quietly.
[Just 13 seconds into the opening game, Real Madrid scored!] γ
[It's Rosie, it's him again!] γ
[He appeared, the most suitable place!] γ
[He scored his first Madrid derby goal!] γ
[This is also the fastest goal in the Madrid derby!] γ
[He set a new record!] γ
