114 Tactical Upgrades, Future Golden Balls! [10,000 words, kneeling and begging for subscription]
November 7, Calderón Stadium, Madrid.
In the second leg of the second knockout round of the UEFA Cup, Atletico Madrid hosted Herforg.
The Danish team clearly came with a determination to die, but they were also prepared to stay the course.
Head coach John Jensen even played a 541 tactic in this game, making it clear that he wanted to stick to the bucket formation to the end.
Atletico still faced the iconic 4231 formation, but failed to win the entire first half.
At half-time, Yang Hao made some adjustments, especially emphasizing the need to make more good use of possession.
At the beginning of the second half, Atletico took the lead in attacking.
In just three minutes, Pandiani broke the deadlock for Atletico with a goal.
Five minutes later, it was the Uruguayan centre-forward's goal that gave the team another goal.
Atletico scored in the 61st, 64th and 75th minutes, with Pandiani contributing two goals for a quadruple, while youngster Xavi Alonso scored with a long-range shot in the 64th minute.
5-0, Atletico Madrid defeated Helferg at home and successfully advanced to the third round with an aggregate score of 6-1.
In the subsequent UEFA draw, Atletico Madrid's opponent in the third knockout round was Osijek from Croatia.
When the lottery results came out, Yang Hao was stunned for a moment, and suddenly a name popped up in his mind.
Luka Modric.
Where is the core of the Croatian midfield, who will break Melo's goal monopoly in the future?
Yang Hao had to think about it.
However, there is also a big problem.
Now Croatia has not joined the European Union, and Modric is still a foreign aid.
No matter, let's find someone first.
……
On November 11, Singles' Day, Yang Hao led a team to Mallorca.
Real Mallorca are the second team in La Liga to be in the limelight in recent times after Atletico Madrid.
Their schedule is similar to that of Atletico Madrid, with three rounds from round 6 to round 8 against Deportivo La Coruna, Barcelona and Real Madrid, with Mallorca having a record of Ping Laco, Dry Barcelona and Real Madrid.
In the last round, they beat Real Sociedad 1-0 away and won three in a row.
In the last 5 rounds, Real Mallorca have won 4 and drawn 1 and remain unbeaten.
The league ranking also washed away the decline in the early part of the season, and suddenly rushed to 7th place in the league.
The two teams in the limelight have launched a desperate battle in the 10th round of La Liga.
However, Atletico Madrid were on a very disadvantageous schedule as they had to be distracted by a UEFA Cup game in midweek, while Mallorca were playing at home and recuperating, and in the end it was Aragonés who took advantage.
There were two counter-attacks in the first half, with Samuel Eto'o and Luque scoring a goal each.
Although Atletico fought back wildly in the second half, Adriano scored a goal for the team, but could not turn the situation around.
In the end, Atletico Madrid lost 1-2 away.
Deportivo La Coruna beat Zaragoza 2-0, Real Madrid beat Las Palmas 5-1 and Valencia drew 2-2 with Rayo Vallecano.
Barcelona was the only one, losing 2-1 at home to Villarreal.
After this round, Atletico still led with 22 points, but the gap was narrowed.
Real Madrid are second with 19 points thanks to this victory, followed by Deportivo La Coruna, Real Mallorca and Valencia, and Aragonés' team is further up the league standings.
……
While everyone in Spain was speculating whether Atletico would be defeated, the Sheets came back to life in the 11th round of La Liga a week later.
In the away game against Real Sociedad, Vicente set up Deco to score after just 12 minutes.
Xavi Alonso then set up Lucio to score from his former club with a corner.
After the rematch in the second half, Joaquín and Vicente scored successively.
In the end, Atletico Madrid defeated Real Sociedad 4-1 away, and while winning another three points, it also shattered the rumors of Atletico's collapse.
In Yang Hao's words at the post-match press conference, "We are used to your Atletico collapse theory, and we will not be affected in any way, on the contrary, the more hype you have, the more motivated we will be." ”
The implication is that we are going to fight you media to the end!
It was also in this round that Aragonés Mallorca finally lost, losing 0-1 away to Las Palmas.
Who would have thought that Mallorca, who had repeatedly defeated strong opponents, would lose to the promoted horses.
But that's football.
Deportivo La Coruna and Valencia both drew and Real Madrid beat Villarreal by a narrow goal.
However, Barcelona, the team under Ferrer's team suffered another heavy defeat, losing 1-3 away to Zaragoza.
This defeat caused Barcelona to fall directly to 12th in the league rankings.
……
In midweek, in the first leg of the third round of the UEFA Cup, Atletico host Croatia's Osijek.
After 90 minutes of fierce battle, Atletico Madrid beat their opponents 5-1.
These five goals came from five players, which also reflects that Atletico's attack is everywhere, with many attack points and rich offensive means, including corner kicks, set-pieces, long-range shots, grabbing points in the penalty area and attacking ribs.
……
La Liga round 12.
Mallorca reversed Villarreal 2-1.
But Aragonés' side were not at all to be happy as Villarreal received two red cards shortly after the break.
How could Aragonés be happy when he conceded the first goal with two more players than his opponent?
Barcelona beat Osasuna 2-0 at home thanks to Kluivert's goal.
Valencia, Deportivo La Coruna and Real Madrid all beat their opponents to get the three points.
Atletico beat Las Palmas 5-1 at home.
Adriano and Vicente both scored braces, with Academy youngster Fernando Torres coming off the bench after a secure win and netting in the 89th minute.
……
La Liga Round 13.
Valencia drew away at Valladolid; Deportivo La Coruna beat Espanyol 2-0; Real Madrid beat Osasuna 3-2 away; Barcelona drew 3-3 away at Celta Vigo.
Atletico were held to a 0-0 draw away from home by Villarreal.
The two sides battled hard for 90 minutes, but neither could find the back of the net.
At the end of this round, Atletico Madrid continued to lead with 29 points, but Real Madrid followed with 28 points.
Further up are Valencia with 25 points and Deportivo La Coruna with 24 points.
Although Yang Hao's team is still leading, the advantage is not so obvious.
The Spanish media has once again hyped up the theory of Atletico Madrid's collapse, and even believes that the two-front battle is only one of the factors affecting Atletico's results, and the most critical reason is that after experiencing an amazing start to the season, other teams have also found ways to restrain Atletico Madrid.
Like all teams, the players' bodies are getting more and more tired after entering December, and the team's injuries are inevitably increasing, Atletico have to deal with multi-front battles, but the problem of bench depth has also been exposed.
For example, after Joaquín was injured, the right side could only be brought up by veteran Aguilera, but the effect was not ideal.
……
In midweek, the second leg of the third round of the League Cup.
Yang Hao went to Croatia as a substitute.
After a long journey, they suffered a 2-0 defeat away from home.
However, with a 5-1 victory in the first leg, Atletico Madrid successfully advanced to the fourth round, which is the round of 16 of the UEFA Cup, 5-3.
The tournament will kick off in February next year, and Atletico Madrid will face Inter Milan this time.
……
Returning to Madrid from Croatia, Yang Hao ushered in Zaragoza non-stop.
Before the game started, Atletico Madrid had already folded a big player first, Lucio was injured in pre-match training, coupled with Pochettino, who had been injured before, forced Yang Hao to temporarily change his plan and arrange a center-back combination of Carvalho and Sante.
But none of this is a problem.
Yang Hao clearly felt that other teams in La Liga were gradually finding ways to restrain Atletico's tactics.
It's a normal thing, because that's what they live on.
But the trouble is that the games are one after another, especially this kind of double-line battle, a week of double games, which does not leave Yang Hao time to breathe at all, and it is difficult for him to adjust the team's tactics.
When the team didn't have time for targeted drills, he had to play a set of tactics to the end.
In the end, in his home stadium, Pandiani scored the first goal and was tied 1-1 by Zaragoza.
As Real Madrid defeated Celta Vigo 3-0 at home, they managed to overtake Atletico Madrid in the standings.
With 14 rounds, 9 wins, 3 draws and 2 losses, the Sheets are second in La Liga.
Real Madrid overtook Atletico Madrid with 31 points and led the standings with 3 points in this round.
This suddenly made all the media and fans who had previously sung Atletico Madrid look like a holiday, and they seemed inexplicably excited.
The newspaper Ace, which is close to Real Madrid, even said that unlike Atletico Madrid's deterioration, Real Madrid is getting better.
"This season's La Liga title will definitely belong to Real Madrid!"
Bosque is also ambitious, and has made harsh remarks in the media that Real Madrid will never let the leader fall into the hands of anyone else.
……
The rhetoric was still in the ears, and just three days later, Real Madrid suffered a humiliation.
In the second round of the Copa del Rey, Real Madrid played away to Toledo in the fourth division, and scored in the opening five minutes, and the goal was conceded again in the 14th minute.
Although Savio quickly pulled a goal back, he eventually lost 2-1 away and was eliminated from the competition.
Bosque's side had just played their first Copa del Rey game before going home.
And the star-studded Real Madrid, although Zidane, Raul and Figo and other main players are not on it, but Morientes, Savio, Solari and others are all good, how can they lose to the fourth-tier team?
Atletico Madrid beat Salamanca 1-0 away thanks to a goal from Adriano, who returned from injury.
Yang Hao sighed with embarrassment after learning that Real Madrid lost to Toledo in the fourth tier.
"What a fine tradition!"
……
After playing the Copa del Rey, La Liga played one league round each on the 16th and 20th.
Atletico beat Osasuna 2-0 away and then beat Celta Vigo 4-2 at home.
The match against Celta Vigo was a more dangerous game than the previous game, and the process was not as strong as the score suggested.
Real Madrid defeated Espanyol 2-1 away and Rayo Vallecano 3-1 at home to continue to lead La Liga.
After 16 rounds, La Liga came to a halt and ushered in the Christmas and winter break.
The players were dismissed, but the coaching staff could not take a vacation yet.
Atletico are completely different today than they were before the season.
As Yang Hao said at the meeting, "In my heart, we should usher in the winter break as a leader." ”
Yes, not only Yang Hao thinks so, but Atletico Madrid, from players to coaches to employees, all think so.
led for so long, but as a result, he was accidentally overtaken by Real Madrid.
Unwilling!
"We are holding this meeting not to hold accountable, but to solve problems."
Yang Hao was very clear about the purpose of the meeting, so as to avoid the meeting becoming a useless task to shirk each other's responsibilities.
Previously, he had asked the coaches and employees to explain the various problems and difficulties they have encountered since the new season, as well as the analysis of the reasons for the current situation of the team.
Is Atletico's results good?
If someone had said before the season that Atletico would have finished second in La Liga before the winter break, everyone would have laughed.
But that's what people are.
led for so long, and was suddenly overtaken, how could he be willing?
What should I do if I am not reconciled?
Find a way to get it back!
Yang Hao was the first to express his opinion, he felt that Atletico Madrid did not encounter very serious problems now, but there were many small problems.
That's why Atletico have been leading for a long time, but have lost the top spot.
"The tricky issue now is that our tactics are becoming familiar to our opponents."
Yang Hao is not untargeted.
This is a conclusion he has come to after frequent in-depth exchanges and communication with the core coaching staff such as Juanma Lillo, as well as the data analysis team.
"In the past, everyone, all teams, looked at us as a relegation team, even when they were just leading, they didn't take us too seriously, but gradually, they began to pay attention."
'On the one hand, it's a recognition of our quality and our performance, but on the other hand, it also gives us a bigger challenge, especially when more and more teams like Villarreal are playing against us and the pressure is even greater.
Everyone present nodded their heads in recognition of Yang Hao's judgment.
After the devil's schedule, more and more teams will take defensive counter-attacks against Atletico.
Some even can't just stick to it.
The reason why they can still play some games with good scores is because Atletico Madrid is strong and the opponent can't hold it.
But this is not always an option.
Juanma Lillo immediately offered his opinion, "I think our midfield is still not strong enough in terms of organization, combing and control. ”
This is actually an old problem that has been exposed for a long time.
The two-man combination of Graveson and Baraja was an eye-catcher at the start of the season, and even in the Devil's schedule, with a good defensive combination that pressed, pressed and covered well.
But the midfield is still a little worse in terms of organizing, sorting and planning the attack.
Yang Hao originally hoped to let Graveson play the role of that anchor, and the Dane was willing to try, but as the schedule deepened, Graveson's playing habits were still difficult to change, and he still liked to cut forward.
In Yang Hao's tactics, this anchor does not have to be nailed to the backfield like Busquets in Barcelona's No. 4 position.
But the key is whether you can read the game quickly and get back to position quickly, which is a very test of the player's ball quotient.
Gravison does fall short in this regard.
He is willing to fight and grab, passing and dribbling the ball very well, but if he is a delay, it is still a bit of a problem.
In Yang Hao's previous life, at Everton, Gravison was not a lagging midfielder.
"In the second half of the race, I'm going to give Cambiasso more time to play with Xavi Alonso." Yang Hao said what he thought.
He still has a lot of confidence in the ability and potential of these two players.
As long as they are given more opportunities to play and their potential is squeezed, it will be difficult for Graveson to compete with them.
Everyone didn't have a big opinion on this.
"How's Kaka doing?" Yang Hao asked the physical trainer Ortega.
Ortega is not only good at training his players, but he is also good at strengthening his players' physical training.
After Kaka came to Atletico Madrid from Brazil, as a foreign aid, Yang Hao originally wanted to put him in the second team.
Unexpectedly, Cambiaso was qualified to apply for Spanish nationality, and the first team vacated a foreign aid place, so Yang Hao put him in the first team.
At the moment, Kaka has made a few substitute appearances for the team.
"The player is currently 1.86 meters tall, and we took him to the hospital for a very detailed examination to make sure that his physical growth has been finalized, so next, we will do physical strengthening training for him." Ortega said.
Kaka's situation is very interesting, he used to be quite short, but in just two or three years, his height suddenly grew, and he grew directly to 1.86 meters in one breath, which can be described as a leap and bound.
And everyone can imagine that such a sudden growth in height will inevitably cause Kaka's whole person to lose a lot of weight.
This requires a lot of physical training.
"When training, we must pay attention to it, it must be scientific and reasonable, and it must be gradual and gradual, especially taking into account the technical characteristics of Kaka."
"Understood."
Yang Hao had an idea in his heart, since the team has Deco, there are scorers like Adriano and Pandiani, as well as players such as Cambiaso, Xavi Alonso, Graveson and Baraja.
Is it possible to copy the set of Christmas trees that Ann Fat Man became famous for?
Ancelotti's Christmas tree can be said to perfectly play the characteristics and advantages of Kaka, but Ancelotti also spent two or three years gradually figuring it out.
Among them is the replacement of Rui Costa with Kaka.
But Yang Hao doesn't need it, he knows very well where Kaka's characteristics and advantages are, and Atletico Madrid now has enough manpower, especially the powerful fullbacks, who can use this tactical style of play.
However, the Christmas tree is more defensive and counter-attacking, which is more suitable for strong conversations, or on the stage where the intensity of the game is higher.
For example, the Champions League.
……
Kaka issues aside, Atletico have exposed a number of other problems so far.
For example, injuries and illnesses.
Compared to other teams, Atletico have been less affected by injuries.
Injuries are inevitable, and Atletico Madrid's injuries this season have basically been out of one or two games, which is a minor injury.
Unlike other teams, it is often more than a month, and some even have a few months of serious injuries.
It can also be seen that the laboratory that Yang Hao spent so much effort to build at the beginning, and introduced experts in medicine and kinesiology, has begun to see results.
With the continuous in-depth research and development of the laboratory, as well as the scientific training of the players, the effect will become more and more significant.
Yang Hao and the coaching staff are also already preparing to use the winter break to improve the various problems encountered by the team in the first half of the season, further polish the team's tactics, and let the team continue to maintain its competitiveness in La Liga.
Especially the 4231 formation.
This is currently the most mature set of tactical play that Atletico Madrid has polished and the players are most accustomed to.
As the saying goes: the league relies on offense, and the cup depends on defense.
This is not unreasonable.
Cup games are a one-game or two-game affair, and defense can ensure that you are invincible.
But the league is different, it is very long, there are many opponents, and the opponent has a longer reaction time.
Especially as you get better and better, more and more opponents will adopt more secure and even more conservative tactics against you.
In this case, if you want to get three points, you have to attack.
Defend?
Holding on to the draw, it's only 1 point.
The direction pointed out by Yang Hao to the coaching staff is: to further strengthen the attack on the wing, further activate Deco, and further improve the team's offensive and defensive conversion speed and efficiency.
"How to do it, you come up with a plan as soon as possible."
All in all, Atletico's tactics must be upgraded!
Juanma Lillo nodded in agreement and took up the task.
For a long time, Yang Hao basically does not interfere in specific training affairs, and is only responsible for the overall situation and the game.
Mendiodo's scouting team is also progressing in an orderly manner, and now that the overall framework has been formed, the player database and website have been launched, and the next step is to continue to move forward according to the schedule.
But Yang Hao gave him a special task.
"Go to Zadar, Croatia, and help me find someone."
Zadar is a port city in western Croatia.
In the early nineties, when the war broke out, many Croats fled to Zadar.
The same goes for Luka Modric's family.
But unlike the others, who returned to their hometowns after the war, the family settled in Zadar.
According to Modric's autobiography, on the one hand, because his father was stationed near Zadar after joining the army, and on the other hand, because Modric trained at the youth academy in Zadar, and made very good progress, and is expected to become a good professional footballer.
In this case, neither parent wants to interrupt Modric's progress.
"I had a friend who spotted him in the previous invitational tournament in Vodice, and thought that this kid was very smart in football, very good at technique, and very characteristic in passing the ball with the outside of his right foot, and later heard that he also went to Haiduk for a trial, but was not stayed, so he recommended it to me."
This is a future Golden Globe winner!
Mendiodo's face showed a look of amusement, looking at the other people around him, including Lillo, all of them had such expressions, because they had already experienced Yang Hao's "I Have a Friend" many times.
Haiduk is one of Croatia's biggest teams, not losing to Dinamo Zagreb, and has produced stars such as Tudor.
Modric's entire family is a fan of Hayduk, so naturally he wants to send Modric to Hayduk, and he also tried out at this club for two weeks, but the other party felt that Modric was not mature and let him go back.
Vodice, a small town in southern Croatia, regularly hosts major tournaments with the country's best youth teams.
Luka Modric represented Zadar in the tournament and finished third, but Modric was voted Player of the Match.
Also competing that year was Nico Cranica, who later played for Tottenham Hotspur, the son of Chico Cranica, but who played for Dinamo Zagreb.
These are all seen in Yang Hao's previous life and in Modric's biography.
But the league is so busy, Zadar is still the fifth largest city in Croatia, and Yang Hao really doesn't have time to find it slowly.
So, the matter is left to Atletico's scouts.
At the beginning, Mendiodo and others would be surprised by Yang Hao's "friends", and even offered to invite them to work in Atletico Madrid's scouting system, but Yang Hao found a reason to refuse.
Because the players recommended are really good, including Kaka, Adriano, Aurelio and others, they basically play with very good strength and potential, and their vision is very convincing.
Since Yang Hao was reluctant to say it, then they couldn't delve into anything, and the obedience was over.
Mendiodo, on the other hand, has repeatedly asked for a meeting and a lesson.
Yang Hao can't say that he is a friend out of nothing, right?
I can only drag it on like this.
……
With Atletico Madrid's long-term ascension, Yang Hao's reputation as a talented coach also spread rapidly, and he not only made a name for himself in European football, but also began to have a certain influence in the world.
Especially in the Middle East, where Atletico is focused.
The team's winter break will be held in Dubai, the Middle East, and will also play a warm-up match against Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga.
The match was linked by Atletico Madrid and was co-sponsored by Emirates and Audi.
Among them, Emirates is currently the advertising sponsor of Atletico Madrid's jersey chest, while Audi is the sponsor of Bayern and has a certain interest in sponsoring Atletico Madrid, and Bayern also has a strong interest in the Middle East market.
After some pinching, Atletico Madrid and Bayern decided to play this warm-up match.
But before that, Yang Hao had to go to Dubai in advance to fight a dozen outpost battles.
Around Christmas, Dubai hosts a series of business events featuring world-renowned brands and brand ambassadors, with the natural aim of promoting the city of Dubai.
In Yang Hao's previous life, Dubai was a world-famous tourist destination.
But its fame is all based on real money, all the way out.
It's not just iconic buildings like Burj Al Arab and Burj Khalifa, but all sorts of publicity and promotion.
Of course, in 2000, Dubai's name was still very mediocre.
But what is even stranger about Yang Hao is ......
"Carlos, why me?"
In the first class of Emirates Airlines flying to Dubai, Yang Hao asked his confusion.
"Hello, Mr. Yang Hao." The beautiful stewardess half-knelt down in the aisle and offered a hot drink with a smile on her face.
"Hello." Yang Hao responded politely.
He had a faint feeling that if he asked for her phone at this moment, he should be able to take it.
Atletico's head of marketing, Carlos Leao, was depressed.
Obviously, they are both first-class, and the two of them are still sitting next door, why is there obviously less than half of his enthusiasm for service?
They are all men, so why treat them differently?
"Eh, you haven't answered my question yet." Yang Hao urged.
Carlos Leo looked at Yang Hao very resentfully, "It's very simple, you can take a look at the people in our team yourself, can you go?" ”
"Why not?"
"The hottest player in the team at the moment is Adriano, but his image ......"
Big guy, a bit strong, but not handsome enough.
"Deco is also very popular at the moment, but the expression of hatred and bitterness, the sponsors will retreat when they see it, don't you say?"
Yang Hao deeply agrees with this.
He always felt that Deco was being dragged down by this face.
If Deco can look like Kaka, or like Beckham, NND, he will definitely be able to fire half the sky.
Even more extreme, you don't have to look like a handsome guy, even if you are recognizable like Ronaldinho, don't have a bitter expression all day long, smile more, be optimistic and cheerful, that can be popular.
It's just that this guy has always had this expression.
But the funny thing is that Deco really isn't that kind of character in private.
What a world-class superstar who has been delayed by his appearance!
"Don't say it, I once told Deco to be interviewed and laugh when he was photographed, guess what he told me?"
"How?"
"He said, "Boss, the reporters all say that I laugh worse than cry."
Carlos Leo laughed directly, causing everyone in the entire first class to turn their heads and look at them.
"He's very self-aware." Leo covered his mouth, forced a smile, and said to Yang Hao.
After a pause, he said again, "You think, Graveson is not suitable, Baraja looks okay, but the midfielder is not very well-known, not to mention Lucio, Vicente, Joaquín and others still owe some fire." ”
Carlos Leao's count, Yang Hao really found that there are really no idol-level players in the Atletico Madrid team.
We are all powerful factions!
"I think Torres and Kaka can be cultivated." Yang Hao proposed.
Carlos Leo agreed, "But you have to train them, and now Torres is still very dirty in clothes, and when he comes up, I will ask the stylist to come over and tailor it for them, won't this come out?" ”
"Oh, yes, and Xavi Alonso."
As he spoke, Carlos Leo frowned again, "That Cambiaso is also a weirdo, obviously he looks good, but when he had long hair in the middle, he was still a literary young man, but as a result, he got a bald head and completely ruined his image." ”
Yang Hao laughed when he heard it.
It has to be said that the perspective of the commercial director is different from that of the head coach.
Yang Hao seems that Cambiaso is bald and stronger.
"To be honest, Yang, if you have a choice, I won't let you go on this trip, it's really dozens of people up and down our club, and we can't find decent talents, in terms of popularity and image, you still have to go out."
Thousands of wears, but sycophants don't wear.
Carlos Leo went around in a big circle, and Yang Hao was very comfortable with this sycophant.
'I'll tell you, I have a consensus with the people in the commercial department, and the club will definitely build momentum for you in the future, especially at the commercial level, and you are the best candidate for our team right now.'
"Besides, your affair with Miss Spain has made you a bit famous in the European fashion circle."
The news was spread widely, and Carlos Leo and others saw the value and potential of Yang Hao at the business level, so they had this trip to Dubai.
Yang Hao suddenly smiled, "Don't talk nonsense, I'm just ordinary friends with her." ”
Carlos Leo almost burst out laughing.
Ordinary friends?
were all photographed by gossip reporters, went to the hotel to open a room together, didn't come out overnight, or are they just ordinary friends?
However, after dating for a while, some time ago, some media said that the two separated.
The reason is that each other is very ambitious.
Yang Hao was busy with the team, and the woman was also busy with her own career, so they broke up peacefully.
Of course, Yang Hao never admitted that he had this relationship from beginning to end, let alone fell out of love.
"It's okay, I heard from them that there will be a lot of commercial activities here in Dubai recently, including beach catwalks and the like, and there are many famous celebrity spokespersons and models from all over the world who will gather together, maybe you will meet what you like."
Yang Hao snorted and laughed twice, but didn't say anything.
Man.
……
Emirates hosted Yang Hao and Carlos Leao with a high profile.
After arriving in Dubai, the two were directly taken by Rolls-Royce to the Burj Al Arab, which had just opened for a year.
When Yang Hao coded words in his previous life, he wrote about this hotel a lot, and he also consulted a lot of information and photos.
But when he walked into the hotel, he couldn't help but be amazed by the splendor of the place.
How so?
He has always felt that gold is a very local color.
But in this hotel, it seems that the local tyrants have become a fashion trend.
It really feels like being stunned and kneeling by gold!
In this regard, I really have to admire the money in the Middle East.
From the hotel lobby to the elevator to the room, to the restaurant and the sky bar, you can see that kind of golden dazzle everywhere, but it really doesn't make people feel bored and feel vulgar.
I have to say that the designer really racked his brains.
Yang Hao couldn't help but think of the big golden bowl of the 2022 Qatar World Cup, the designer is the British master Norman Foster whom he likes very much, and the appearance is also a local tyrant gold.
How so?
The things made by the masters, even if they are trenches, are also trenches that are different, and trenches have to be artistic.
The decoration in the Burj Al Arab is roughly the same smell.
……
Yang Hao was also busy in the next few days, not only to participate in some sponsor activities, but also to find a good venue and hotel for the team's winter break training camp in advance.
Atletico Madrid and his party are sponsored by Emirates, due to the large number of people in the winter training camp, it is naturally impossible to stay in the Burj Al Arab, but the specifications of the hotel are also five-star, very luxurious, and the service is also very high-grade.
On the other hand, the training ground and the stadium are more problematic.
The venue is very new, and all kinds of hardware are almost there, but some software and facilities are not perfect.
Dubai is also very wealthy, and directly told Yang Hao that he made a list to ensure that he added it on time.
This is really enough for local tyrants.
In addition to work matters, Yang Hao travels around Dubai in his spare time.
Today, Dubai is just emerging, and there is infrastructure everywhere, and it is in a stage of vigorous development.
But on the other hand, there really aren't as many fun attractions as there will be in the future.
During this period, Yang Hao took the time to participate in a beach fashion show, and as a key guest, he was arranged on the side of the catwalk, where he could enjoy the catwalks of models from all over the world up close.
Everywhere in the world, sports stars are at the top of the food chain.
Whether it's an entertainment star or a model in the fashion industry, you have to stand aside when you meet a sports star.
As a talented young coach who has become famous in European football in the past year, Yang Hao's fame has spread rapidly with Atletico Madrid's results this season, and he is now a hot figure in football.
More importantly, in the coaching seat dominated by many elderly people, Yang Hao, who is only 25 years old, is even more special.
So much so that when Yang Hao sat on the edge of the catwalk, he could feel the flattering glances from the models walking on the catwalk from time to time, but he did not accept the invitation.
It wasn't until a tall young lady appeared in front of him with a skillful catwalk that he felt a light in his eyes.
With her beautiful face and bewitching figure, she quickly became the focus of attention of the audience.
Yang Hao is naturally no exception.
And he quickly recognized who this delicate and sexy model was.
The future Angel of Victoria's Secret, Alexandre Ambrosio.
After recognizing it, Yang Hao was quite surprised, but observing the reactions of the people around him, it seemed that everyone didn't know her.
He immediately guessed that the future world-class supermodel should only be slightly famous now, far less famous than in the future.
I have to say that Yang Hao was very surprised to see the catwalk of future supermodels up close.
Not only is the figure excellent, but the appearance is also good, especially among the models, which is even more attractive.
"What country is this model?"
Carlos Leo sat next to Yang Hao, his eyes hadn't left her graceful body since Ambrosio came out.
"Brazilian."
"Brazil?" Carlos Leao was surprised.
After a pause, he noticed Yang Hao's funny eyes and smiled a little embarrassedly.
He is a person with a wife and children, and he likes to watch beautiful women so much, he feels embarrassed.
But he still couldn't help but let out an exclamation, "I didn't expect that in addition to football, Brazil is also rich in beautiful women." ”
Yang Hao thought so.
What he didn't expect was that after a day at the beach show, an event was being held at the bar on the 27th floor of the Burj Al Arab, where he was staying, and he received an invitation from the hotel to take a look.
Unexpectedly, he met Ambrosius again, who was also staying in this hotel.
Yang Hao waited quietly on the side for a while, and after seeing her disperse the group of wild bees and butterflies beside her, he walked over with Shi Shiran.
"Hello, Miss Ambrosio, could I please have a drink?"
Ambrosio saw that it was Yang Hao, and immediately laughed, looking particularly charming and moving.
"I can't ask for it, Mr. Yang Hao, it's my honor."
The two of them went to the bar, ordered a cocktail each, and struck up a conversation.
Because of Adriano, Aurelio and Lucio, Yang Hao is not a small name in Brazil, which he didn't expect before.
And Ambrosio is only barely gaining a foothold in the fashion circle now, and he wants to go further.
The more the two chatted, the more they agreed, and they had the feeling of seeing each other late.
