182 Massacre! A gift for La Liga! [10,000 words, kneeling and begging for subscription]

Ahead of the second leg of the Spanish Super Cup, Atletico Madrid held a press conference at the Calderón Stadium.

The purpose of this launch is twofold.

One is that Atletico Madrid officially announced that Marao Beer has become the team's official sponsor partner.

This is the second team sponsored by the Spanish beer brand after Real Madrid.

The President of MSM Group was present to sign the sponsorship contract with Atletico Madrid, and also expressed his expectation for the prospect of sponsoring Atletico Madrid, and they spoke highly of Atletico's outstanding achievements in the past few years.

"We all have a common goal, which is to build ourselves into a global brand in the future, which is a beautiful vision, and we are willing to join hands with Atletico!"

In fact, in Spain, Maro beer is famous, especially in the Greater Madrid area, where it can be found in fan bars.

And beer and football have never been inseparable.

It's just a sponsorship, and it's impossible for both parties to take it so seriously.

Subsequently, the two parties jointly announced a blockbuster cooperation, that is, they will officially launch the renovation project of the old Atletico Madrid-Marao beer site!

Because both sides were very low-key before, the outside world did not get much information, but vaguely knew that the area was going to be renovated, but everyone thought it was a project of the municipal government.

But now, everyone has suddenly come to their senses.

It turned out to be a strong alliance between Atletico Madrid and MSM Group.

Cerezo was very excited to tell all the news media present that this will be a key project in Madrid costing more than 2 billion euros, and that Atletico Madrid's new stadium will be the top priority of the entire project.

While there's no further news yet, not even a plot of land, and nothing other than a new stadium for Atletico, it's exciting enough.

All the media reporters at the scene were shocked.

Everyone didn't expect Atletico to have such courage.

In interviews with media reporters, both Cerezo and the president of the MSM Group expressed their confidence in this plan, and also said that it will be a model benchmark project for the renovation of Madrid's old city.

The president of MSM Group now understands what it is like to be a man of the hour with the light of football, and he has never been so sought after by a media reporter.

"As one of the oldest clubs in Spain, Atletico Madrid has become a part of Madrid's urban culture, and although times have changed and the Calderón Stadium is no longer suitable for various reasons, we still want to continue the football culture and spirit of Atletico," he said. ”

"We will integrate these into the whole project, so that the whole old city renovation project will be more closely integrated with our city, and on the basis of preserving the traditional culture and spirit, we will inject more vitality into the new era, just like our Maao beer ......."

Yang Hao sat in the audience, listening to Cerezo and the president of MSM Group blowing on it, and he suddenly wanted to laugh.

Now, he really understands why those real estate developers are so profitable.

With the influence of the Super Cup and Atletico Madrid, there were indeed a lot of media reporters present, but Yang Hao knows better than anyone how tall the whole project is.

The two sides did say hello to the city government of Madrid, and the city government basically agreed, but the specifics have to wait for the project plan to come out, for example, how many buildings are you going to build, how big the new stadium will be, what it will look like, and so on.

Only when these come out can they be brought to the city council for discussion.

So far, Atletico Madrid have invested 50 million euros in one go, and MSM Group is about the same amount.

In other words, the whole project has invested 100 million euros so far, which is indeed a lot, but it is not as exaggerated as 2 billion euros......

If you want to build a skyscraper, just say it, you have to do it.

Yang Hao really didn't expect that one day he would become the "flickering" developer in his eyes in the past.

However, when you really get to the heart of the project, you will feel that it is normal to do so.

They are now trying to take the project and attract investors outside.

With Atletico Madrid's current strength, even if it is coupled with the size of MSM Group, it still can't eat such a big piece of cake, it doesn't attract investors, it can't play at all, and it doesn't even rule out cooperating with Florentino's ACS Construction Group.

ACS Group is currently the largest construction and real estate developer in Spain, with a strong and experienced background.

Of course, for now, the project is just getting started.

The purpose of this press conference is to bring the project out there, attract interested investors and builders, and then choose a high-quality partner from it.

With the current popularity of the Spanish real estate market, as long as there are good projects, there is no need to worry about no one investing.

……

On the evening of the press conference, Atletico Madrid welcomed the second leg of the Spanish Super Cup at home.

The two sides played the first game on the road to a 2-2 draw, and after returning to home, the starting line-ups of both teams remained largely unchanged.

Baraja continues to be sidelined with injury, while Deco and Kaka continue to start.

The event attracted more than 50,000 fans.

Atletico Madrid was in complete control of the game from the start, and Real Mallorca relied more on the overall formation and running at any cost of physical strength to compete with Atletico Madrid.

The combination of Deco and Kaka is significantly different from the combination of Deco and Baraja.

Baraja was both offensive and defensive, and he had a long-range shot, but his passing skills were also excellent.

When the two are paired up, Deco tends to be a little bit more forward, and the tasks of transferring and pulling are handed over to Baraja.

But when partnering with Kaka, it is often Kaka who is more forward, and Deco takes on the task of transferring and pulling.

In the 16th minute, Atletico Madrid was on the periphery of Real Mallorca's 30-meter area, pulling continuously.

After Joaquín pulled to the right side, McCone suddenly plugged in, walked diagonally, and inserted diagonally into the big penalty area, that is, after receiving Deco's diagonal pass, he burst into the right side of the penalty area, and suddenly shot angrily, opening the scoring for Atletico Madrid!

“GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!”

"McCone scored Atletico's first goal of the season at the Calderón Stadium!"

"Atletico were very patient in this attack."

"Especially when the first counter-attack didn't threaten, Atletico slowed down and patiently pulled and created holes in Real Mallorca's defence."

"1 to 0!"

The entire Calderón stadium was boiling.

But Atletico Madrid is not following Barcelona's blind passing and possession path.

In the 20th minute, when switching from defense to attack, Xavi Alonso made a diagonal pass, and then gave it to the left side, Reyes rushed all the way, caught up with Xavi Alonso's long pass, and burst into the left side of the penalty area with the ball, and crossed to the middle to find Torres.

But Reyes' link was not handled well and the final cross was a little too close to the goalkeeper.

Mallorca goalkeeper Frank decisively dropped the ball and grabbed the ball before Torres.

failed to score again, but Yang Hao still gave the players a round of applause on the sidelines.

The first quick counterattack is best if it can be played, and if it can't be hit, when the ball reaches the front, it slows down, turns to control the ball and penetrates with short passes, especially long passes.

It's no secret that attacking one side, drawing the attention of the defence, and then moving long passes to the weak side to attack the opponent's weak points, but all teams are using it.

The difference is whether it can be used well or not.

For example, Real Madrid's ceremonial three midfielders, what is the most classic routine?

Isn't it the transfer of Tony Kroos and the control of Modric?

On Atletico's side, Kaka has not yet been fully released.

Many people's impression of Kaka is that of a boy chasing the wind, the lightning that holds the ball on the court and is galloping.

But if you watch more Kaka games, fans will definitely find that his passing is also very good.

It's just that his speed, breakaways and shots are so dazzling that everyone ignores his passing.

The most typical is the Champions League final in 05 that was ridiculed by countless fans, Kaka fully explained his ability in passing and assisting, whether it was facing three defenders, the pick pass to Shevchenko, or the long pass to Crespo before the end of the first half, it was very exquisite.

One of the reasons why Kaka changed later was that AC Milan needed him to take on more of the task of attacking the city.

Especially after Shevchenko's move to Chelsea.

But Atletico don't need Kaka to attack the city too much, let alone put all the burden of attacking on Kaka.

Yang Hao actually wants him to play the role of a midfielder's attacking core, just like Zidane after his speed has been strengthened.

Of course, Kaka doesn't control the ball as finely as Zidane, let alone short men like Messi and Iniesta.

But Yang Hao has been looking for a set of tactics to closely combine players such as Torres, Kaka, Messi, and Iniesta.

Because that's a contradiction in itself.

Players like Torres, Kaka, Arjen Robben and Drogba all need space.

Lionel Messi, Andres Iniesta and David Silva are players who are clever on the ball, but they need the ball.

Theoretically, the former is best suited for defensive counter-attacks, because then they have room to sprint; The latter is best suited to Barca's high pressing, because they are short, have a low center of gravity, and are best at moving around in tight areas.

As early as when he was in the second team, Yang Hao would run to watch them play from time to time, but found that the scum opponents of the second team were too weak to have any effect at all.

Now, he's still trying to see if he can have a set of tactics to tie them together.

It may be a new and unique style of play for Atletico.

And this change in the team this season is actually a direction that Yang Hao is trying.

After all, Iniesta is going to start picking up the burden, and in two years' time, Messi, David Silva and Modric will also be out.

There is not much time left for Yang Hao!

……

Different tactics can lead to different scenes in the game.

When Atletico start to increase possession, all the fans will feel fresh.

Even Atletico fans at Calderón Stadium feel that this team is very different from the one they know, which is more counter-attack-oriented.

But it has to be said that this Atletico team plays better and has stronger attacking ability.

The most typical one was in the 43rd minute.

By the time Atletico's attack advanced to Mallorca's 30-metre zone, the visitors had set up two lines of defence inside and outside the box.

The Sheets Corps was forced to switch to positional warfare.

Aragonés has built a defence that was difficult for even Real Madrid to break down last season.

After Atletico slowed down appropriately, Deco suddenly dribbled the ball through the left flank, but was closely marked by Mallorca midfielder Martin and passed the ball to Kaka in the middle of a dense crowd.

Kaka turned sideways to the goal, facing to the left, and when Deco passed the ball, he stopped the ball with the inside of his right foot, blocked Gonzalez with his body, but flicked it with his left foot.

The ball fell into the top of the arc, and the retreating Torres also used his left foot to meet the falling football, and passed back to the left side of the periphery of the arc area, handed it back to Deco, and turned around and ran.

At this moment, according to common sense, Deco should pass directly back into the big penalty area and find Torres.

Mallorca's defensive players thought the same way.

Unexpectedly, Deco faced the incoming ball again and gave it to the periphery of the left corner of the penalty area.

Reyes chested the ball and Mallorca's right wing-back Cortés rushed out.

Before the defender could stand firm, Reyes suddenly accelerated, rushed to the bottom line with the ball, and quickly made a low flat ball with his left foot, giving it to the middle of the front of the small penalty area.

Torres only then caught up with Reyes' pass and pushed with his feet.

The ball goes into the net!

“GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!”

The entire Calderón Stadium burst into passion.

"I didn't expect, really didn't expect, that the Atletico players showed off their skillful footwork and played possession on the periphery of the Real Mallorca penalty area."

'The Real Mallorca defenders obviously didn't expect it either.

"In the past, Atletico has always given the impression of being a hard bridge and a hard horse, with big openings and closings, but tonight they played very carefully."

"Especially in possession up front."

'In the past, we've always said that the Atletico players are very technical, it's just that their overall tactics don't tend to be on the ball.

"But tonight, Atletico are obviously changing their style of play, injecting more delicacy into the straight style of play in the past, which makes them play more penetrating."

"Real Mallorca's defence was pulled back and forth, and finally the flaws were exposed."

It can be seen from the slow-motion replay that if Torres didn't grab the point in the middle, Joaquín in the back was already in place.

Yang Hao applauded vigorously on the sidelines and applauded the player's goal.

This is the result of this summer training camp.

Just as Yang Hao in his previous life, Guardiola once said that his team is not afraid of those teams that defend strictly and even put on an iron bucket formation, because teams with this kind of negative style of play are often constantly pulled.

As soon as it is pulled, the line of defense will move, it will have to be reorganized.

Once or twice is no problem, but what about a long time?

Yang Hao now wants to improve Atletico's positional warfare's attacking ability, especially this ability to break through dense defense.

……

After the second half was replayed, with two goals behind, Real Mallorca tried to play a rush attack.

But in the 51st minute, Atletico Madrid quickly counterattacked after breaking the ball.

Kaka received a pass from Deco, started to soar with the ball, and burst into Mallorca's 30-metre area from his own half.

The cunning Brazilian first made a gesture to the left flank to find Torres to cooperate, but suddenly sent a diagonal pass to the feet of Joaquín on the right side of the arc.

The Spanish winger stepped into the box and fired a shot straight past Real Mallorca.

It was a quick counter-attack!

The game was completely under the control of Atletico.

Mallorca made several attempts to counter-attack, especially Samuel Eto'o, who was very active up front but failed to threaten.

It wasn't until the 76th minute that Atletico Madrid attacked Mallorca's left side, and Reyes and Evra attacked in succession, attracting the attention of the defenders, and then distributed the ball to Deco.

Deco stopped the ball with his right foot, turned sideways, and sent a diagonal pass to the right side in front of the small penalty area.

Drogba, who came on as a substitute for Fernando Torres, followed up quickly and hit the goal with a header past Mallorca's former Barcelona centre-back Rafael Nadal from close range.

The ball goes into the net, 4-0!

The fans at Calderón Stadium cheered wildly.

Tonight, Atletico not only had complete control of the game, but also played very fluidly in attack.

Regardless of whether Mallorca is on the defensive, or proactive, Atletico can handle it with ease.

At the beginning of the season, he was able to play an unusually 4-0 victory, which made all Atletico Madrid fans feel extremely excited.

In the end, Atletico Madrid won Real Mallorca 4-0 at home and 6-2 on aggregate to win the Spanish Super Cup.

……

"You didn't play Atletico tonight!"

When Yang Hao walked over and shook hands with Aragonés after the game, the Atletico legend was not at all depressed about losing the Super Cup.

It's just a formal warm-up game.

"Atletico don't just play on the counter-attack." Yang Hao said with a smile.

'Of course, your players have always been very technical, and everyone knows that.

"How does it feel?" Yang Hao asked.

Aragonés was a little depressed at this time, "It's not polite for you to do that. ”

Both laughed.

I just someone 4-0, and I asked them how they felt, which was really a bit unkind.

"Didn't I bless you again last season's Copa del Rey?" Yang Hao also has his own reasoning.

Aragonés didn't talk to him, he knew what Yang Hao meant.

The warm-up games in North America are not rich in gold, so Yang Hao now needs two high-level games to test his team and see how well this season's tactical play is.

"To be honest, Deco Gacaca's combination, I don't think the midfield control is enough, we also had a couple of counter-attacks tonight that were good, but we didn't grasp it."

Yang Hao nodded, this is reasonable.

"In general, the general direction is correct, but it needs to be polished more carefully, and Baraha's words can inject more stability, but the offensive end is not as sharp as Kaka."

Yang Hao understood what Aragonés meant.

He did think that if Marcos Senna played as a single midfielder in this game, would it be better?

Although there is no Xavi Alonso's precise long passes and transfers, Atletico's central defenders can also make long passes.

It's a matter of trade-offs.

"Kaka, this kid is really good, and he's getting more and more mature." Aragonés said enviously.

Kaka's talent is the type that is revealed at a glance, very, very good.

But Brazilians are not yet fully formed, and they have to continue to grow and improve.

Speaking of this, Aragonés suddenly sighed for no reason, "I don't know what the point of playing this kind of Super Cup is, not to mention dragging us down in the first round of La Liga, the key is to lose ......"

After saying that, the old man waved his hand in self-pity and left.

Before leaving, he suddenly thought of something, turned around again, and asked Yang Hao, "Is your new stadium project real or fake?" ”

He still doesn't believe it.

"Really."

"Do you have any money?"

"Earn it." Yang Hao said with a smile.

Aragonés looked at Yang Hao deeply and nodded, "Okay, come on, all Atletico fans will be happy, I hope everything goes well!" ”

He's also an Atletico fan and the most die-hard.

……

Atletico's victory in the Spanish Super Cup was no surprise.

Surprisingly, Atletico Madrid beat Real Mallorca 4-0.

Especially in this game, the excellent skills and wonderful passing and cutting cooperation shown by Atletico Madrid not only made the Atletico fans on the scene addicted, but also surprised all the media.

But as Marca said, Atletico have been improving and playing more and more dominant.

"This Atletico team at the Calderón Stadium looks even more kingly!"

But what really caused turmoil in Spanish and even European football was the blockbuster plan announced by Atletico Madrid at the press conference.

In 2023, it seems that there is nothing new to build a new stadium, and many teams have been built.

But in 2003, it was definitely a blast to build a new stadium.

There are even a lot of teams that can't even think about it.

Over the years, Arsenal have been the only team in the big four leagues to build a new stadium.

Construction began on the Gunners' new stadium in July, but the location has been forced to move further northwest to the London suburbs.

And in the area of the former Highbury Field, the Gunners are ready to build a real estate project.

Today's Gunners are also ambitious, and David Dunn even said that the profits of real estate projects will greatly boost the Gunners' strength in the Premier League, and Arsenal will have more financial resources to compete with their arch-rivals Manchester United.

Now, Atletico Madrid are also preparing to build a new stadium, which is undoubtedly also attracting attention.

The reaction of Atletico Madrid fans has been very positive, after all, although the Calderón Stadium is traditional, it is too restrictive.

……

The day after the Spanish Super Cup, UEFA hosted the draw for the Champions League group stage and the UEFA awards ceremony at the Grimaldi Convention Centre in Monaco.

Since these awards basically have nothing to do with Yang Hao and Atletico Madrid, Yang Hao was invited, but did not participate.

He was shortlisted for the Best Coach award, but everyone knows that Cooper deserves to win the award in the circumstances of last year.

A Champions League plus a Serie A, with the current momentum of Serie A, Cooper does not win the award, it is really shady.

As for the player of the season who is hailed as the bellwether of the man of football, it must be Adriano.

There is basically no suspense about this.

But to Yang Hao's surprise, with his outstanding performance in the League Cup and Champions League in the past three seasons, Atletico Madrid actually ranked among the first seeded teams.

In terms of points, Atletico Madrid is the bottom of the eight seeded teams, nearly 60 points less than Real Madrid, the highest player in Europe.

Seeing this European points ranking, Yang Hao could only say: Real Madrid's bottom is indeed thick.

In the previous life, Real Madrid's performance in the Champions League this season was still good, and the great journey of the sixteenth season will only start next season, but with this point, if you squander it for a few more years, it will still be the first gear.

Atletico still have a long way to go in this regard.

Interestingly, Atletico Madrid's draw this season turned out to be pretty good, with Pot 2 going to PSV Eindhoven, Pot 3 to AEK Athens and Pot 3 to Monaco.

Yes, Monaco, the runner-up in the Champions League this season, was actually placed in Pot 4.

Jose Mourinho's Porto are in Pot 2, along with AC Milan, Inter Milan, Lyon and Chelsea.

Therefore, Yang Hao really feels that he seems to be starting to have good luck this season.

At least the draw in the group stage was really good.

……

Don't look at Real Madrid's high European points, but before the start of the season, before the league started, Real Madrid was hit first.

A number of dressing room players are starting to complain about their pay packages.

How outrageous is that?

McManaman, Campo, and Savio were all terminated.

If you add Munitis and Hierro before, Real Madrid terminated the contracts of five players in one go this summer.

If you want to talk about age, it's actually not that big.

McManaman is only 31 years old, Savio and Campo are 29 years old, and Munitis is 28 years old.

In addition to the five players who have been released from their contracts, academy youngster centre-back Ruben has been loaned to Borussia Mönchengladbach; Morientes was loaned to Monaco; Flavio was loaned to Borussia Dortmund; Serrades went on loan to Bordeaux......

What no one realised was that behind the fandom and the dreams of the superstars was a group of seemingly obscure stalwarts who were sent out of Real Madrid because they were dissatisfied with their salaries.

Reuters reported that according to the statistics of authoritative institutions, Real Madrid's current salary package for the whole team is 73.93 million euros, and the salary package of the eight superstars in the team has reached a staggering 48.5 million euros.

The eight superstars are Raul, Zinedine Zidane, David Beckham, Ronaldo, Figo, Carlos, Patrick Vieira and Cannavaro.

But Real Madrid's first team has a total of 25 players.

In other words, the remaining 17 people only account for 35% of the team's salary expenditure.

And that's without deducting the salaries of players such as Guti, Salgado, Solari, Casillas, etc.

Reuters believes that if the salaries of these regular main players are deducted, the salaries of the remaining dozen players may not even be 15%.

And now, Guti, Salgado, Portillo and others are dissatisfied with their remuneration packages.

The Spanish newspaper Marca is equally concerned about the situation at Real Madrid.

Marca believes that football is a team sport that requires both reasonable tactics and a balanced structure, as well as the unity of players.

But now, Real Madrid has poured all its resources into the superstar and created a galaxy battleship, but the income gap between players is so huge, how can the psychology be balanced?

On the other hand, the blind introduction of superstars has created a situation where strong players gather.

Beckham and Figo's position have been debated throughout the summer training camp.

Marca interviewed Real Madrid's youth academy and was hailed as a quote from Raul II's Portillo.

'Now that we have so many world-famous attackers, the competition is tougher than ever, but I can't go a season without a ball.

'To be honest, I can't be calm about it, playing for Real Madrid is the best thing in the world and it's always been my dream, but I also have my own ideals and ambitions and no one can take away my desire to play.

"If you can only play a few games a year, then for me, it's better to leave and go somewhere else."

However, Real Madrid have definitively rejected Portillo's transfer request.

The 22-year-old homegrown striker made just 10 appearances for the club in La Liga last season, scoring five goals and providing one assist in 202 minutes.

This list of achievements is impressive enough and extremely efficient.

But he was very unhappy with his situation, as he was often forced to play only in some garbage time.

For example, the substitutes came on for 10 minutes, or even 4 minutes, and there were several games that lasted 1 minute.

Marca revealed that the reason for this arrangement is that the team must prioritise the playing time of the superstars to ensure their consistent performance.

This is also the reason why Portillo is dissatisfied.

Marca believes that in the past, Real Madrid's substitutes were McManaman, Savio, Sellades and Flavio, among others.

But now?

Borja, Minambrai, Jurado, Mejía......

"The galactic battleship carrying the superstars is about to set sail, but Real Madrid's top management should seriously consider how to avoid repeating the mistakes of the Titanic!"

Ironically, while Reuters, Marca and other media are reporting on the hidden dangers of Real Madrid's dressing room, on the other hand, Real Madrid's management is full of expectations for the new season.

In an interview with the media after the Champions League draw, Florentino said ambitiously, "Real Madrid has only one goal this season, the treble!" ”

"I know we missed out on three titles last season, but we're going to get them all back this season!"

"Because we have the strongest squad in the world!"

……

Before the start of the league, there was another important news, that is, the dispute over the broadcast fee of La Liga.

Since the current broadcast rights of La Liga are sold by each club themselves, the sales of each team are different.

But before the start of the season, many teams in the middle and lower reaches of La Liga and La B were dissatisfied with La Liga pay TV station Sogecable and protested en masse.

SA is the leader of La Liga pay TV and belongs to the Prisa Group, which is the largest media group in Spain, with a number of authoritative media such as Radio Serre, El País, and As, as well as 4 Spanish TV stations.

SA owns the broadcasting rights to all the teams in La Liga, but the gap in the offers given is very wide.

For example, the offer for Real Madrid and Barcelona is 72 million euros per year.

But what about other teams?

The 22 teams in La Liga and the 9 teams in La Liga's middle and lower levels add up to only 84 million euros.

Atletico's situation is much better, but it's only 30 million.

The main reason for this is that Real Madrid's superstar strategy in recent years has led to their appeal growing by leaps and bounds, while Barcelona has always been sitting on the ratings of the Catalan region.

But on the other hand, SA has been shouting that it is losing money, but at the same time it is actively acquiring its competitor VDSA, and after the merger of the two companies, it has a market share of more than 80% in the Spanish pay TV market.

La Liga has stepped in to help these teams negotiate and negotiate with SA to ensure that La Liga can be held as scheduled this season, while La Liga is also actively preparing for the 2005 broadcast rights reform.

At present, even if SA is the only company, it is not completely without competitors.

For example, a pay-TV MDP in Catalonia, this company is also ambitious, pulling in investment everywhere, ready to compete with SA in La Liga rights.

In addition, La Liga is in communication and negotiations with the Spanish government to explore the possibility of bringing in established foreign broadcasters, such as Sky TV, so that more competition can be introduced.

Although SA is part of the Prisa Group, the French toll giant Cannl+ is also one of their controlling parties.

The meaning of La Liga is very clear, it is necessary to break this monopoly pattern and introduce more competition in order to avoid the emergence of this monopoly pattern of one dominant monopoly.

There are only about 2 million paying users in Spain now, and the future potential is more than 10 million, which is quite attractive for many international giants.

After La Liga intervened, SA quickly made a compromise and agreed to the demands of the small and medium-sized and La Liga clubs, and appropriately increased the broadcast fee.

La Liga's new management team also proved its worth as an instant hit.

But the real issue lies in the 2005 broadcast rights.

At present, this reform has been approved by the Spanish parliament, and it will be up to La Liga to fight this battle.

In any case, both fans in Spain and other small and medium-sized clubs except Real Madrid and Barcelona are almost all eagerly waiting for the arrival of a new era.

And even Real Madrid and Barcelona are quite looking forward to it, because they both pay more attention to overseas markets.

Once La Liga is integrated internally, 20 teams will collectively go overseas to compete in the global market.

At that point, La Liga will have to compete with the Premier League!

……

On August 30, La Liga ushered in the premiere of the new season as scheduled.

Atletico's La Liga debut was close to the Spanish Super Cup, so Yang Hao had to rotate.

Not only Atletico Madrid, but also Real Mallorca.

As a result, Aragonés' team lost 1-2 away to Racing Santander.

Atletico Madrid, on the other hand, also lost 1-0 away to Sevilla in their first game.

Atletico's defeat was due to the team's failure to defend Baptista's back row to get on the attack.

This is what Yang Hao emphasized before the game, and Baptista was very good at inserting in the back row.

Back then, when Yang Hao was in Sao Paulo, he considered signing him, but considering that his tactics were not very compatible with Atletico Madrid, Yang Hao finally gave up.

Unexpectedly, the Brazilian midfielder gave Yang Hao such a surprise in his debut in the new season.

The goal came in the 15th minute.

After that, Atletico tried to attack several times, but failed to find the back of the net for Sevilla.

Yang Hao didn't pay much attention to the loss.

Playing the Spanish Super Cup on the 27th and the first round of La Liga on the 30th, there were two days in between, and it was impossible for Yang Hao not to rotate.

There is a lot of rotation, and it is the first round of the new season, so it is normal for accidents to occur.

At the post-match press conference, Yang Hao said with a smile that he didn't think it was a problem.

"We also need to get used to the rhythm of the new season."

But with Real Madrid, Barcelona and Deportivo all winning, Atletico's defeat was a bit embarrassing, and the league table fell to 17th place, almost entering the relegation zone.

The Catalan media even jokingly ridiculed Atletico Madrid, "Perhaps, it is Atletico Madrid who will enter the relegation zone in the new season!" ”

To Yang Hao's surprise, Vigo Celta, who has always been very good at opening the game, drew in the first round this time.

……

September 2, La Liga Round 2.

Atletico Madrid take on promoted Albacete at the Calderón Stadium.

Yang Hao continued to line up the 433 attacking formation, and the midfielder was still the partner of Deco, Kaka and Xavi Alonso.

Baraha has now resumed training, but Yang Hao did not let him play.

From the outset, Atletico were in complete control and in the 13th minute, Deco scored past Albacete with a shot from the top of the box.

Subsequently, Atletico were particularly active in attack, especially on the two wings.

With this constant back and forth, players on the flanks tend to get more chances.

In the 34th minute, it was Joaquín who broke through with the ball on the right side and sent a low flat ball into the penalty area.

Torres stopped the ball and smashed past the defender and hit the goal with his left foot, 2-0!

The entire Calderón stadium was in complete boiling.

After the rematch in the second half, Atletico gradually began to get into the groove.

In the 49th minute, the cooperation of Joaquín and McCone on the right side, the Brazilian right fullback crossed the bottom, and Torres in the middle scored with a header, 3-0!

5 minutes later, Atletico Madrid's break near the middle line, Kaka forced the ball into the periphery of the penalty area and suddenly threw a cold arrow, a 20-meter cloud-piercing arrow, and broke Albacete's goal again, 4-0!

Everyone is in a frenzy!

Just 1 minute later, it was midfielder Kaka who advanced with the ball and passed the ball diagonally to the left side of the penalty area, and Reyes followed up to push the score further to make it 5-0!

The continuous offensive made Albacete completely collapse.

The poor promoted side were beaten 2-0 at home to Osasuna in the first round and were slaughtered in the second leg at the Stadio Calderón.

Midfielder Ivan Dias lost control of his emotions in the 76th minute, and his actions were too big, and he received a second yellow card, which made the situation of the promoted horse even worse.

Atletico Madrid took advantage of the victory to chase after it.

First, Xavi Alonso rushed to the top of the penalty area and scored his first goal of the new season with a long-range shot, 6-0!

Villa, who came on as a substitute, also scored in the 87th minute to lock the score at 7-0!

In the end, Atletico Madrid completed a crazy massacre at home, knocking Albacete off the horse, so that this poor promoted team has not fully passed the freshness of promotion, and completely feels the cruelty and ruthlessness of La Liga.

And Atletico Madrid's 7-0 is particularly eye-catching in the first two rounds of La Liga, where one or two goals are generally scored.

Yang Hao even confidently said at the post-match press conference, "This is our Atletico Madrid's gift to La Liga in the new season!" ”

Sorry, sorry! I'm out for a bit of a day today!
