54 We made it!
For the sake of fairness, La Liga has the practice of scheduling the last two rounds of the league at the same time.
When Atletico Madrid beat Sevilla 4-0 at home to knock the future Europa League champions into the relegation zone, the rest of the games were also out of the picture.
Real Orvieto scored twice in a row after conceding a goal in the opening game to reverse Rayo Vallecano 2-1.
Especially in the 80th minute, when Ania scored the winning goal for the team, even Aragonés was inexplicably excited.
I don't know if it was affected by Real Oviedo's goal reversal in the 80th minute, far away in the other game, Numancia away to Alaves, played very well in the previous stage, scoring two goals in the 35th and 76th minutes respectively.
It looks like it's going to be a sure win.
But after Ania scored a goal, I don't know what happened, Numancia conceded two goals in a row in the 82nd and 86th minutes.
What is even more unbelievable is that in the final stoppage time, Numancia conceded another goal.
In just ten minutes, conceding 3 goals in a row, Numancia finally had a big collapse.
In the end, Alaves reversed Numancia 3-2 at home.
Real Sociedad's 0-0 draw at home to Barcelona resulted in 44 points after 37 rounds.
Atletico Madrid, on the other hand, scored 45 points after beating Sevilla 4-0 at home, not only surpassing Numancia, but also surpassing Real Sociedad in one fell swoop and ranking 16th in La Liga.
Atletico Madrid are Real Sociedad, Real Oviedo, Numancia, Real Betis and Sevilla.
Guus Hiddink's side lost 2-0 at home to Real Madrid.
Oviedo and Numancia are now on the same level, but in terms of their results against each other, Oviedo is at the top of the rankings.
……
We did it!
When the final whistle blew, the entire Calderón stadium was completely transformed into a sea of seas.
The 55,000 Atletico fans cheered wildly and shouted loudly.
Yang Hao raised his fists high, satisfied with the team's performance, and at the same time greatly relieved.
The most difficult level, he is over!
Atletico Madrid succeeded in relegation one round ahead of schedule!
At this moment, he really had the urge to shout loudly and cheer around the scene, but he held back.
It's just over a month, but it seems like a long, long time.
During this time, he was very nervous and fast-paced every day.
Now, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, but he was a little uncomfortable.
However, he soon remembered something else.
Atletico Madrid's competition is not over yet, and there is still a Copa del Rey final.
The opponent is Atletico Madrid's most reluctant to lose in the same city, Real Madrid!
Thinking of this, Yang Hao cheered up again.
It was at this moment that directly opposite him, in the huge stands of the Calderón Stadium, fans began to flip out the cardboard one after another and hold it high above their heads.
Each cardboard is painted and pieced together to form a giant tifo that covers the entire grandstand of the Calderón Stadium.
Yang Hao also gradually recognized this tifo, which was based on Atletico Madrid's counterpoint and red and white arrow stripes, and in the middle was a huge picture, turning Yang Hao P into the image of a savior.
As soon as this giant tifo flipped out, it attracted the attention of the entire stadium, and all the fans burst into thunderous cheers, and everyone was frantically shouting Yang Hao's name.
And Yang Hao himself was a little stunned, and he was moved deep in his heart.
He knew that it would not be easy to make such a tifo, but Atletico Madrid fans gave it to Yang Hao.
A young rookie head coach who has only been in charge of this team for a little more than a month.
"Pretty, isn't it?" Mendiodo suddenly stepped forward and asked Yang Hao with a smile.
"You already knew?" Yang Hao was a little surprised.
"How else would they have a high-resolution picture of you?" Mendiodo laughed, "Actually, they didn't hide it, many people know it, but everyone doesn't want to tell you in advance, they just want to surprise you." ”
"Well, it's quite a surprise, I'll sue you for violating my portrait rights when I go back!" Yang Hao viciously "intimidated".
Mendiodo, of course, doesn't take it seriously.
"Thank you, Yang, it was Ling who saved Atletico, thank you!"
After speaking, Mendiodo opened his arms with emotion and hugged Yang Hao.
It can be seen that at the moment when the team succeeded in relegation, the second generation of Atletico Madrid's football and the third generation of fans were really moved.
The fans at the scene also noticed this scene and burst into more enthusiastic applause.
The players also gathered around, standing with head coach Yang Hao, and some even shouted to throw Yang Hao into the air, but Yang Hao sternly refused.
"People only throw the head coach after winning the championship, we are relegated, there is no such rule!"
Seeing the head coach's severe refusal, captain Aguilera also agreed with Yang Hao's statement, "Indeed, only when you win the championship will you throw the head coach, this is the rule of football." ”
Unexpectedly, as soon as Yang Hao put his mind at ease and was about to walk away, Aguilera suddenly rushed over first.
Not to mention, this guy is 1.73 meters tall, and he doesn't look tall, but the body and strength of professional athletes are really strong, and he directly threw Yang Hao down and hugged him.
Seeing this, other people around also rushed up.
"The last thing we like at Atletico is to play by the rules!" Aguilera shouted.
"Brothers, throw!"
"Good!"
Yang Hao was really scared.
NND, these unruly second goods!
When he was thrown up, his whole body tensed, and he almost screamed for help.
But in the end, he really couldn't hold back.
"Hey, hey, hey, take it well, don't let go!"
……
Atletico Madrid successfully relegated one round ahead of schedule!
The news quickly sparked heated discussions throughout Spain.
Especially after the 37th round, Atletico Madrid's relegation was successful, which once again pushed Yang Hao's name to Spain, Europe, and even the world's media and fans.
Who would have thought that the 25-year-old coach would save the team that Ranieri and Antici brought into the relegation zone in just over a month.
What's more, after consecutive wins, especially after this 4-0 defeat of Sevilla, Atletico's goal difference has improved greatly, and even if they lose to Real Mallorca in the last round, Atletico will not be relegated.
To put Atletico back into the relegation zone, Oviedo, Numancia and Real Sociedad will need to win at the same time in the final round.
But this does not exist.
Why?
Because in the last round, Real Oviedo played against Real Sociedad.
In other words, one of these two teams is destined to be unable to get out of it all.
After a round of league games, the situation was completely reversed, Real Sociedad was pulled overboard, and Atletico went ashore instead.
All of a sudden, the Spanish media were frantically reporting the news.
In particular, Atletico Madrid's head coach Yang Hao has received a flood of praise.
After all, more than a month ago, everyone pronounced the death sentence of Atletico Madrid, but he simply brought Atletico back to life.
Not only that, but Atletico also reached the final of the Copa del Rey.
Relegation is the main battleground, and the Copa del Rey is just the icing on the cake, but if you can win the Copa del Rey, you can participate in the UEFA Cup next season, which is also an honor.
Today's UEFA Cup is not the same as the League Cup in the next few years, and the gold content is still relatively sufficient.
Since 1998, UEFA has restructured the three major European competitions, merging the Cup Winners' Cup into the League Cup, and the UEFA Champions Cup has been massively expanded, transformed into the UEFA Champions League, and began to use European points.
Looking back in 2023, this move has led to the weakening of the UEFA Cup.
But standing at the moment in 2000, the current UEFA Cup is still quite valuable and highly valued.
If Atletico can really succeed in relegation and reach the League Cup, it will be a double blessing.
……
The media outside hyped it fiercely, but Yang Hao still did not accept an interview with media reporters.
In the words of media reporters, he is still making "awkwardness".
Mendiodo even jokingly appealed to media reporters at a press conference after the relegation success, "You have to give him a little more time." ”
It's a joke, of course.
After the 37th round of La Liga, Atletico's next focus shifted to the Copa del Rey final in two weeks' time.
There are two weeks to prepare, which is crucial for Atletico.
It's Real Madrid, who are still struggling to qualify for the Champions League.
After this round, Real Madrid are in fourth place, just one point more than Valencia in fifth and Alaves in sixth place.
In other words, in the last round of the league, Real Madrid still has to beat Valladolid.
And judging from the situation this season, Valladolid is also a hard bone, and Real Madrid may not be able to gnaw on it.
What's more, after playing Valladolid on the 18th, the Champions League final was ushered in on the 24th, and the opponent was Valencia.
On the 27th, the Madrid duo will gather at the Mestalla Stadium in Valencia to decide the winner of the Copa del Rey.
Three games a week, and you have to give it your all, it's going to be a big challenge for Real Madrid.
Because of this, after playing Sevilla, Yang Hao announced on the spot that the team would arrange a two-day holiday next, but it would be open, which immediately made all the players in the locker room excited.
Paid time off, who wouldn't want it?
Yang Hao also repeatedly reminded the players that after the league relegation, the team should make persistent efforts to strive for the next Copa del Rey final, take advantage of Real Madrid's continuous hard fighting, kill the opponent, and win a Copa del Rey Cup.
The players are also full of morale.
The next morning, after the team had a recovery session, Yang Hao asked Parales to call Belleron to his office.
He was very busy before, and he didn't get permission from Atletico, so he put a lot of things on hold for the time being.
If you are not in your position, you will not seek your own government, this is Yang Hao's principle.
Now that the relegation has been successful and he has decided to stay in office, many things have to be put on the agenda.
The summer transfer window is both long and short, and it is a must to race against time.
Therefore, after Yang Hao saw Belleron, after Parales closed the door and went out, he stared directly at Belleron and asked straight to the point: "Tell me, Juan, will you stay after this season?" ”
