After playing in the quarterfinals of the Champions League, fans throughout European football and even around the world are vying to discuss the strength of La Liga.

There is also a debate about who is the current number one league in world football.

Don't look at the current La Liga results are very strong, but the Premier League is still the most profitable.

Even in different regions, the level of fan support varies.

In Northern and Central Europe, for example, the Premier League still dominates.

In Asia, the Premier League has been deeply cultivated for many years, and although La Liga has improved greatly in recent years, it is still slightly insufficient.

However, La Liga has also been playing cards in recent years, including adjusting the start time.

Speaking of which, this is also a major move that has caused complaints within La Liga and made Spanish fans very dissatisfied, but it is very popular with fans in Asia.

The main reason is that the Spaniards have different schedules, so that they can run out to watch the football game at noon, it is like asking them to die, and there is also a very important objective factor, climate.

It's really hot at noon in Spain, especially in the summer, and it's really unbearable.

Not only are the fans complaining, but the club is also very opinionated.

Therefore, La Liga is also constantly making adjustments, such as putting the start time in the afternoon, hoping to find a way that is not only in line with the actual national conditions of Spain, but also caters to the time of fans in Asia.

However, in Asia, the current situation is still relatively stalemate, with the Premier League having a slight advantage.

But in North America, La Liga has now begun to counterattack the Premier League.

In the past few years, the three masters of the Spanish Super League, led by Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid and Barcelona, have been increasing their development of the North American market, and Nike is a sponsor of Atletico Madrid and Barcelona, which makes La Liga's influence in North America higher and higher.

According to the latest market research, La Liga has overtaken the Premier League in North America, but the advantage is not huge.

Overall, La Liga's globalization is booming and the outlook is very promising, but the challenges ahead are very daunting.

As the Premier League reacted, it began to respond around the world.

The competition between the two major leagues is only going to get tougher.

Of course, it's not exactly a zero-sum game.

Through this competition, it is also possible to further promote the best leagues in European football to the whole world.

The advantage of the Premier League is that it is backed by the English language and the Commonwealth, coupled with the financial center and capital operation of the United Kingdom, which has formed a unique advantage of the Premier League.

But La Liga also has the advantage of La Liga.

Spanish is the first language in the football world, and La Liga is the best place in South America and North America, especially in South America, a treasure trove of football talent.

The climate of the Iberian Peninsula is also more livable, making it a huge attraction for players from South America and Africa.

Even players from other European countries are leaning towards Spain.

If nothing else, the rainy weather in England dissuades almost all South American players.

On the basis of the good results, La Liga is also forging ahead.

At the beginning of February, La Liga held a symposium, inviting the bigwigs of the major clubs of La Liga and La Liga, as well as authoritative figures in the professional football industry from all over the world, to gather in Madrid to exchange views on the situation in La Liga.

In the words of Antonio Ponte, the next step is to invite elites from all over the world, accumulate global wisdom, and further promote the globalization of La Liga.

Building on the past few years, La Liga will become the most competitive sporting event in the world.

The league operation and football matches are separated.

Yang Hao only paid attention to the event in Atletico Madrid, so naturally he didn't have time to participate in such a grand event, but it is said that this momentum was very lively, and it lasted for 3 days, and many authoritative guests in the industry gave advice.

These include some American TV organizations such as ESPN and NBC that are interested in La Liga, as well as other Internet companies such as Yau Tu Turtle, all of which are combining their industry and field experience to contribute to the further globalization of La Liga.

This once again confirms what Yang Hao said before, as long as the incentive mechanism is given enough and a set of orderly management models are created, La Liga does not need to be spurred at all, and they can roll up energetically.

Like this kind of symposium, Yang Hao really couldn't think of it.

It's really a bit of a hero post.

Now the idea of La Liga has become clearer and clearer, based on the Iberian Peninsula, La Liga is backed by the Portuguese Super League, stepping on the two major football talent bases in South America and Africa, La Liga will set off a vigorous globalization 2.0 movement!

There's actually a background to this.

In June 2000, the EU signed a Cotonou Agreement with the Group of African, Caribbean and Pacific Island States (ACP) in Cotonou, Benin, Africa.

This is a complex intergovernmental agreement that preceded the Lomé Agreement, signed in 1975.

The Cotonou Agreement is closely related to professional football, where EU countries grant citizens of the bloc member states the same employment conditions as EU citizens in the EU.

The Cotonou Agreement entered into force in April 2003 and was ratified by the Spanish Parliament in April 2006.

In August 06, before the start of registration in La Liga, led by Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid, teams including Sevilla and Getafe jointly submitted inquiries to the Spanish Football Federation, asking whether the Cotonou Agreement applies to professional football?

It is clear that the Spanish Football Federation will not be able to go against the decision of the Spanish Parliament, otherwise, they will be finished.

So, the green light was opened.

That is, from the 06/07 season, African players are not counted as foreign players in La Liga.

Now, there is no need for La Liga to come forward at all, and La Liga teams have begun to focus on the fat of African foreign aid, especially in Ligue 1.

This is not very obvious in the 06/07 season, and waiting, from the summer of 07, it will definitely make the whole La Liga agitated.

And the initiator of the whole thing is the Madrid duo.

Atletico have Didier Drogba and Real Madrid have Essien, and both sides have a need for that.

But the real benefit is definitely the vast number of La Liga teams.

So far, the move hasn't attracted much attention from fans.

Marca and other media have also reported it once before, but no one is interested, the perfect fit: the fewer words, the bigger the matter.

La Liga is actively brewing and promoting further globalization, which is undoubtedly in line with this trend.

……

Yang Hao did not participate in the vigorous controversy outside, and he even refused to be interviewed by major media.

After playing in the Champions League, he did one thing.

A team building was organized.

Yang Hao now likes to organize team building more and more, and pulls everyone in the team to engage in team building whenever he has time.

The point is that he is not the same as those middle-aged men in their fifties and sixties in European football, he is only in his early thirties, and he is still at the age of pinching and pocketing water, and he can play with the young players in the team.

The team building he organized was basically arranged by Parales, and everyone was very satisfied.

It's nothing more than eating, drinking, and having fun.

And before the start of every team building, Yang Hao has to say a few words routinely.

This time, he said directly that there is only one purpose in organizing team building in the busy schedule of the double competition in a week.

"I've decided, we're going to win the treble this season!"

All the players were stunned for a moment, and then they all cheered.

For Atletico, they were not surprised at all.

That's Atletico's strength.

Last season was almost meaningless, and if the Copa del Rey were to be won, wouldn't it be another treble?

I won it once in the 03/04 season, and if I can win it again in 06/07, it will be 3 years in between.

Therefore, the players have expressed their 100% support for the manager's decision!

After speaking, Yang Hao let the players move freely, but he took the opportunity to talk to Kaka, Messi, Drogba, Torres, Villa and Robben and others.

For these big-name stars in the team, Yang Hao has high hopes.

He asked Kaka to keep his current state.

"Trust me, you still have a good chance this year!" Yang Hao encouraged.

For Messi, Yang Hao hopes that he can continue to improve himself.

I'm only 19 years old, what's the hurry?

Seriously, Messi is not even fully mature now, let alone that he is not there for the time being, even if he really has the strength of the king of the ball, does Yang Hao dare to let go of his hands and feet to use it?

No kidding!

Some things exist objectively.

Back then, Ronaldo was young enough, right?

But take a look at his later injury history.

Yang Hao told Messi, "Sooner or later, this world will be yours!" ”

For other players, Yang Hao's attitude is the same, basically based on encouragement.

To go hand in hand on all three fronts, Atletico need to be ready and mobilize all the players in the first team.

Suarez and Di Maria are the second-team players that Yang Hao values the most, and they were also called by Yang Hao to talk.

For both of them, Yang Hao is a problem.

"I want to win the Copa del Rey, can you be the main player?"

The current Copa del Rey semi-final opponent is Sevilla, while the other match is Deportivo La Coruna against Barcelona.

From the current point of view, Yang Hao is quite confident.

Of course, none of these teams are easy to play.

The other three teams are all teams that are currently competing for the top four.

If you look at the whole league, they may not be able to shake the position of Madrid's two giants, but if it is a single or two matchups, they definitely have the strength to disrupt the situation.

But Yang Hao still wants to give Suarez and Di Maria some stimulation.

The Copa del Rey has been able to reach the point where it has been, and both players have contributed a lot.

Yang Hao also hopes that in the next semi-finals, he will continue to give them opportunities to see how much they can play and how far they can improve.

And the answers given by the two to Yang Hao were very clear and very resolute.

"I can!"

Yang Hao replied with a smile, "Prove it to me!" ”

……

April 14, the 30th round of La Liga.

Real Madrid beat Racing Santander 2-1 away.

Atletico beat Levante 1-0 at home, with Fernando Torres scoring the winning goal.

Barcelona also beat Real Mallorca 1-0 at home.

Valencia beat Sevilla 2-0 at home.

As it stands, the Bats have a good chance of finishing in the top four.

Sevilla are in a difficult situation right now.

This team is neither a local tyrant team nor a traditional giant team, the financial resources are not strong, and the squad is not very strong, but it has been insisting on fighting on the third line in the last two seasons.

That is, La Liga, the League Cup and the Copa del Rey.

It's a lot of pressure for a team like Sevilla.

And now, with a lot of pressure on the top four in the league, but juggling the Copa del Rey and the League Cup, the pressure on Juan Ramos can be imagined.

In this match against Valencia, he was faced with such a choice.

Fresh from the UEFA Cup, next Wednesday is the Copa del Rey, and he has to rotate in the league at the weekend, but as a result, the top four of the league is in question again.

In a way, it's really hard.

But since it is so difficult, then Yang Hao can only exert some internationalist spirit to help him.

If you are eliminated, it will not be difficult!

……

In midweek, in the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-finals, Atletico Madrid hosted Sevilla.

As soon as the game began, the two sides proposed a very exciting offensive battle.

As Yang Hao said before, Sevilla are an atypical La Liga team.

His offense is like La Liga, and his defense is very Italian.

This very strange combination, in the tactics of Juande Ramos, is surprisingly unified.

But as soon as the game started, Di Maria was the first to threaten the Sevilla goal with a long-range shot, and then Kanoute returned the colour.

There was a bit of a bluff on both sides, and neither was able to form a real threat.

The starting goalkeeper for the Copa del Rey is still the veteran Palop.

In the 10th minute, Keylor Navas had another kick from the right side of the box, which was denied by Palop.

But in the 13th minute, Atletico played one of the most threatening attacks.

Di Maria failed to break down the left flank and played a backheel pass to Antonio López, who was plugged in at the back.

The Spain international's left wing-back slid into the left side of the box at high speed and crossed a low ball to the middle, but Drogba couldn't follow up in time and leaked through.

Suarez, who was at the back post, followed up and calmly pushed the ball past Sevilla's goal.

1 to 0!

However, the most outrageous thing was in the 24th minute.

The two sides went back and forth, and as a result, when Ramos was marking Kanoute, when facing the opponent's side cross, Ramos took the first step to jump and fight for the top, but he didn't hit the right part, and directly pushed the ball into his own goal.

Own goal!

Palop was stunned.

You are a Sevillen, and you can't take care of your family like this.

You're getting Atletico Madrid's salary now!

By the way, your name is Ramos, and he also calls Ramos, and he says, what is the relationship between the two of you?

Is it worth it for you to save him with an own goal?

After Ramos, the bastard, scored an own goal, he lay directly on the grass and pretended to be dead, refusing to get up alive or dead.

What is especially funny is that the Atletico fans at the scene applauded!

Yes, they applauded.

Have you ever seen something so outrageous?

Your own player scored an own goal, don't scold, don't spray, forget it, still applaud?

Are you sure it's not an extra cut?

Ramos was finally crossed by Pepe, with a loveless expression, and he almost shouted to the fans in the stands: I'm Sulamusu, it's the ferocity that slashes me again!

"Have you noticed that this guy really has a very special charm, he can take those very outrageous things for granted, provided that you have a good impression of him."

Yang Hao admits that his impression of Ramos has always been very good

Actually, Yang Hao can understand Ramos's own goal.

Kanoute is 1.92 meters tall and Ramos is 1.84 meters, so he is a little shorter in size, and he does not have an advantage in physical confrontation, in this case, he can only make up for it with other methods.

For example, jump first and suppress your opponent.

But this is very judgmental.

This time, he was obviously a little too anxious, misjudged, and after jumping up, he was lonely.

"You still have to shout at him a few times, otherwise I'm afraid he won't be able to keep up." Juanma Lillo also laughed.

It's only 24 minutes and it's okay to concede a goal.

Yang Hao thought of this, and immediately walked to the sidelines, shouting Ramos's name loudly, let him cheer up, don't think that you can grind foreign workers openly with an own goal, be careful that labor and management will change you down!

Ramos hurriedly raised his hand apologetically, and soon came alive again.

The main reason why Atletico fans and players don't care is because of the strength of the team.

It's still early and everyone is confident that the team will score again.

Sure enough, in the 39th minute, David Silva played a link with Baraja in the middle, burst to the edge of the box with the ball and sent a clever pass.

Di Maria cut diagonally into the box and was fouled when he was about to get past French centre-back Escude.

The Argentine did not hesitate to fall in the box, and the referee did not hesitate to award a penalty.

Everyone turned their heads and saw that Ramos had to take the penalty.

At this time, this kid seemed to have forgotten the own goal just now, and he was not polite, and walked directly to the big penalty area, after setting the ball, he stepped back, took a deep breath, ran up, and scored.

2 to 1!

After scoring the goal, he rushed out of the pitch with great excitement and jumped directly to the sidelines to interact with the fans.

There were still many Atletico Madrid fans shouting about the brace, and Yang Hao almost laughed when he heard it.

Pull it down!

Can this also be considered a brace?

After the restart in the second half, Juande Ramos began to adjust his team's tactics to try to put more pressure on Atletico in midfield, but the flanks began to run empty.

Zabaleta sent a cross in the 70th minute of the second half, and Drogba headed the goal in the penalty area to score another goal for Atletico Madrid, 3-1!

Although Sevilla then pressed out decisively, neither side was able to find the back of the net again.

In the end, Atletico won 3-1 at home to Sevilla.

All four goals were scored by Atletico.

And after the match, Juan de Ramos regretted the loss in the post-match press conference.

'We tried to put more pressure on the opposition but they were very good in possession and in their movements, so our plan didn't work out very well.

"It's like a fist in the mud, and instead of hurting the opponent, it can't be pulled out."

Juander Ramos's metaphor has also been recognized by the media.

Atletico Madrid's technical and tactical level in this game was better than that of Sevilla.

Yang Hao helped Ramos defend his own goal.

But later, Yang Hao found that in fact, the Spanish media still liked this little buddy, and no one scolded him when he scored an own goal, and some people even praised him in turn, after scoring an own goal, he could still calmly score a penalty, which is good.

This made Yang Hao deeply realize what it means to be a child in his own pain.

Even Radio Serre's de la Morena said on his show that he likes Ramos more and more.

"Own goal?"

De la Morena specially cut a video to analyze this own goal from all angles to prove that Ramos scored this own goal because he was too dedicated.

"There's no reason to criticize a child who makes mistakes because of hard work!"

This also seems to represent the views of Atletico fans and the Spanish media.

……

At the weekend, in the 31st round of La Liga, Atletico Madrid challenged Real Sociedad away.

Real Sociedad, who are currently 19th, are battling relegation, and this game is even more crucial.

Atletico Madrid are looking for next Wednesday's Champions League semi-finals, so this game is also a little bit of a spare.

Throughout the game, Real Sociedad paid the price of seven yellow cards and drew 1-1 at home to Atletico Madrid.

Villa scored Atletico's only goal.

Real Madrid narrowly beat Valencia 2-1 at home thanks to goals from Ibrahimovic and Giorgio Chiellini.

Morientes scored the only goal for the Bats, assisted by Nani.

Barcelona were met with stubborn sniping from Villarreal away from home.

Carney, the heart of midfield, provided two assists, while Andreas Pire and Sergio Aguero scored one each to help the Yellow Submarine beat Barcelona 2-0.

Sevilla regrouped with a 5-1 home win over Athletic Bilbao.

Deportivo La Coruna beat Osasuna 1-0 at home.

From the current point of view, there is not much suspense about the La Liga title.

Real Madrid are still shouting over there to continue to chase Atletico, but everyone knows that Real Madrid is unlikely to overtake.

The reason why Atletico Madrid has lost points continuously recently is mainly because Yang Hao can afford to lose it, and he is adjusting his strength for the third-line operation, so it is naturally impossible to grab every game.

The real suspense is the top four.

After the defeat to Real Madrid, Valencia began to widen the gap with Sevilla and Barcelona.

……

Yang Hao has always heard people say that a football game has already decided the outcome the moment he walks into the field.

Of course, this is a bit too absolute.

But it does make a lot of sense.

Ancelotti's current situation at AC Milan is really sad.

Shevchenko was sold before the season and Gilardino was brought in, but the team's attack never adjusted.

Especially in the middle of the season, during the winter break, he suddenly sold the core of the midfield, Pirlo, what can he do?

The current AC Milan looks at the lineup is very strong, Ronaldo, Gilardino, Gattuso, Seedorf, Inzaghi ......

All of them are famous and powerful players in European football.

But how many are in their prime?

Gilardino has yet to break double figures in Serie A goals this season.

The imported French genius Gourcuff also failed to meet the expectations of the outside world, and Ancelotti could only train him.

After selling Andrea Pirlo, Carlo Ancelotti tried to transform Gourcuff into a midfielder with a pragmatic attitude.

It's as if he had transformed Pirlo in the first place.

Not to mention, it really smells like that.

Gurkuv is 1.85 meters tall and in good health.

But after trying a few times, I found that it didn't work.

Gourcuff played in the back and was a few streets away from Andrea Pirlo.

As a result, Ancelotti made another adjustment, sometimes adopting a 4312 formation.

That is, the two-striker combination of Gilardino and Ronaldo in front and a Seedorf in ambush behind him.

Sometimes, he still uses the 4321 Christmas tree, with Seedorf and Gourcuff starting at the same time, leaving Gilardino in front of him as a lone striker.

But in this way, the offensive ability of the front is too weak.

I have to admit that as a master tactician from Italy, Ancelotti does have his own uniqueness in watching people put dishes and targeted tactics, so in the Champions League, AC Milan relied on this set of remnants to reach the semifinals.

Compared with Yang Hao, the current AC Milan has no Nesta, no Kaka, no Pirlo, and AC Milan can enter the semifinals, which is already the end of the crossbow.

Goalkeepers: Dida;

Defence: Jankulovski, Maldini, Bonella and Odoro;

Midfielders: Abrosini, Brocki and Gattuso form a back three, with Seedorf and Gourcuff in front;

Forward: Ronaldo.

That's the starting line-up that AC Milan line-up tonight at the Calderón Stadium.

Yang Hao guessed that a very important reason why Ronaldo was used instead of Gilardino was that Ancelotti still wanted to stabilize the defense first and then counterattack.

Atletico's starting line-up was the iconic 433.

Goalkeepers: Petr Cech;

Defenders: Patrice Evra, Thiago Silva, Lucio and Alves;

Midfielders: Xavi Alonso trailing, Andres Iniesta and Kaka in the middle;

Forwards: Arjen Robben, Drogba and Messi.

Yang Hao's confidence comes from Atletico Madrid's strong strength.

So he didn't plan to save the win for Milan City in the second leg, which would be too dangerous for him.

He's going to decide it in Madrid.

Before this game, Yang Hao was calm and low-key on the outside, but within the team, he repeatedly emphasized attack.

Whether it is a targeted drill before the game or in the locker room before the game, Yang Hao emphasizes the most on offense.

Atletico's tactics were even refined to how to play the attack after the opening, where to play, who to pass, where to pass, who to shoot......

And just 3 minutes and 42 seconds into the opening period, Xavi Alonso sent a through ball in midfield.

Patrice Evra cut forward quickly along the left flank.

Arjen Robben pulled Odor down the left and Patrice Evra switched to the ribs, made a one-two with Andres Iniesta and burst into the left side of the edge of the box.

AC Milan's defensive players were all drawn in, including Gattuso and Brockie.

And at this moment, Patrice Evra picked up a pass and gave it to the gap at the top of the arc of the penalty area.

This was supposed to be Brocki's defensive area, Ambrosini failed to make up for it at the first time, was cut forward by Kaka at the fastest speed, faced Evra's pick-up pass, sideways blocked Ambrosini behind him, after stopping the ball on his chest, he didn't wait for Maldini to grab it, and directly volleyed in the line of the big penalty area.

Dida flew out, but the whip couldn't reach it.

"The ball is in!!"

"Kaka!"

"In less than four minutes, Atletico took the lead in scoring the goal of AC Milan!"

"It's another signature rush from Atletico, it's very threatening!"

"Kaka's volley was very beautiful, from stopping the ball and turning to getting up, it was all in one go."

The entire stadium erupted in an instant with overwhelming cheers, and the fans cheered and cheered in the stands.

After Kaka's goal, he gestured to the sky and prayed to God.

Yang Hao was not surprised at all on the sidelines.

This is one of the attacking routines that he and his coaching staff have carefully prepared for AC Milan.

Originally, he thought that it was more certain that Drogba leaned on Bonella with his body in the penalty area, stopped the ball with his back to the attack, and then gave Kaka and let Kaka insert his feet directly.

This is not without reason.

Whether it's in the game or in training, Kaka's long-range shots at the top of the box are very threatening, with a very high hit rate, and he can play with both feet.

It's very hard to defend.

So, theoretically, as long as Kaka is given a chance to kick up in this area, he can form a long-range shot.

That's what Kaka has been doing for the past two years.

The foot strength has been trained, the speed of the foot is faster and more secretive, and the shot is faster and more tricky.

Nowadays, the long-range shot from the edge of the penalty area has become one of Kaka's signature weapons.

Even, he has often blasted out the world waves in the past two years.

This is a real nightmare for the team defending Atletico.

Because it means that from the moment Kaka enters the range, even when he enters the 30-meter area, he must be marked.

But Kaka was always running.

It is impossible for any team to say, arrange a person, follow Kaka all the time, then the defensive order is not wanted?

Therefore, it is easy for the team to face a problem, how to block the ball at the first time when Kaka gets the ball, so as to avoid being hit by Kaka with a long shot.

Of course, Kaka's long-range shot didn't say 100 per cent, but who can guarantee that he won't score with this kick?

It's hard for opponents to fend off Atletico's attack right now, and that's why.

Messi's dribbling, Robben's pace and wide breakaways, Kaka's dribbling and long-range shots, Andres Iniesta's possession and small-range combinations, all of these make opponents unguardable.

So much so that some people say that as long as Atletico Madrid is injury-free and the player's form is generally online, it will be difficult for the Sheets Army to be contained.

……

After Kaka blasted a long-range shot, Atletico's offensive continued.

Yang Hao's request to the players is to decide the outcome in tonight's game.

Subsequently, Atletico continued to play non-stop.

And in the 17th minute, Messi dribbled the ball on the right side, and when facing Jankulovski's defense, the Argentine suddenly stopped and changed direction, shook off Jankulovski with the ball, and when he was about to burst into the right side of the penalty area, Maldini decisively stepped up.

Messi reacted very quickly, made a quick stop to change direction, and when he tried to cut laterally, Maldini had no choice but to kick out.

The referee was aware of the situation and awarded a foul.

Kick!

But he didn't give a yellow card, and obviously he showed mercy to his subordinates.

It was a free-kick from the right side of the box that Xavi Alonso took and all the tall players of Atletico Madrid rushed into the AC Milan box.

Everyone at the scene was also tense.

Xavi Alonso made a quick run and curled a ball towards the front of the goal.

I saw Drogba suddenly rush out, grab ahead of everyone, and rub the header.

The ball was headed up by Drogba, turned in one direction and flew towards the back of the net.

Goalkeeper Dida reacted immediately and pounced quickly, but there was still nothing he could do.

"The ball is in!!!"

"2 to 0!"

"Drogba!"

"In the 17th minute, Drogba scored with a header for Atletico Madrid, 2-0!"

'AC Milan, the Rossoneri got off to a hellish start tonight at the Calderón Stadium.

"In less than 20 minutes, two goals were conceded in a row."

"It was definitely a surprise to everyone."

……

After taking a two-goal lead, Atletico continued to attack.

At this moment, everyone realized that when Atletico Madrid really pressed out to attack, the offensive was so fierce.

When playing Manchester United, Yang Hao used the advantage of passing and cutting more to pull and mobilize the opponent.

But now, in the face of AC Milan, Yang Hao is pressing out to attack openly.

He made it clear that he was telling AC Milan that we don't play those sissy games, we just want to play against you!

AC Milan really don't have much to do about it.

Just over five minutes after the second goal, Atletico were attacking again.

Patrice Evra cut forward from the left and crossed to Andres Iniesta.

Andres Iniesta sent a through ball to Drogba's feet near the penalty spot.

The Ivorian held Bonella with his body and slid the ball back to the right of the edge of the box.

After receiving the ball, Messi attracted the attention of Ambrosini and Brockie and sent a cross.

Kaka quickly sprinted past Messi and others, caught up with Messi's pass, and from between AC Milan's back three and the back line, he slid the ball diagonally to the left side of the arc top area, and shot directly with his left foot and kicked a rolling ball.

The ball drilled into the bottom left corner of the AC Milan goal with great speed.

Dida disarmed and surrendered again, unable to do anything.

3 to 0!

In the opening 22 minutes, Atletico scored 3 goals in a row!

……

Carlo Ancelotti stood on the sidelines, staring blankly at Kaka, who scored a brace, and raced across the pitch.

The entire Calderón stadium cheered.

Once again, the Brazilians became the heroes of the city.

And AC Milan, who were breached by the goal, were stunned one by one.

The difference in strength is too big, too obvious!

Especially when Atletico Madrid is doing their best, AC Milan really can't resist.

Ancelotti had already guessed that would be the case, but he still wanted to fight hard.

What if there was an opportunity?

But as it turned out, the gap was far wider than he had imagined.

In addition to the attack, Atletico Madrid also had a clear feature in this game, they did not possess the ball.

Or rather, he pursues a slower-paced possession of the ball.

They are now attacking fast as soon as they get the ball, giving AC Milan no time to react, just to create gaps and chances before the Rossoneri defence is in position.

What about AC Milan?

It's a bit hard to keep up with that rhythm.

Serie A is too slow!

Carlo Ancelotti is well aware that not to mention Pirlo and Shevchenko are gone, even if the two superstars are still there and useless, AC Milan will still lose.

At best, it could have scored a goal or created more threats.

But judging from the difference in strength between the two sides, AC Milan doesn't have many chances.

As soon as he thought of this, Ancelotti shook his head in frustration, turned around and walked back to the coach's box.

AC Milan's predicament is not a problem for their family, but for the whole of Serie A.

It has been reported that Cooper has resigned and that he will be leaving Inter Milan at the end of the season.

And the most likely place for Cooper to go is to return to La Liga.

There have even been rumours that the Abu Dhabi consortium is likely to hire Cooper as a coach after the acquisition of Valencia.

But Javi Subiratz also extended an invitation to Ancelotti.

Carlo Ancelotti is more and more deeply aware of the declining fate of Serie A, and every team here is the kind of conservative style of play.

Some people may ask, then you AC Milan don't play like this.

Ancelotti was really speechless.

Look at the group of players he has on hand now, if he doesn't play like this, how can he play?

If you really want to play against all opponents, can AC Milan make it out of the group?

Now Serie A is mired in a paradox.

In the past, many Italian fans liked to watch games full of technical and tactical level, a little slower, but with a high technical content, even if it was 0-0, they could watch it with relish.

But now?

Times have changed!

This kind of defensive counter-attacking style of play can no longer attract audiences, especially those young fans.

TV stations are directly appealing: learn La Liga, learn from the Premier League, and even learn from the Bundesliga!

Today's fans prefer an open-ended, aggressive, fast-paced style of play.

If you cling to the traditional one, Serie A will be dead!

If the stadium is not its own, the income will be much less; The business environment is not very good, and the fan environment is not very good, which has led to the current problem of revenue for Serie A teams.

Without money, how can you attract high-level players?

How can you play a good game without players?

If you can't play a good game, how can you attract fans?

No fans watching, no attention, no influence, where do you get the money?

This is now a big problem for Serie A.

As the head team, Inter Milan has not been able to rush to Valencia in La Liga this season after continuous investment, and Moratti is said to be a little disheartened.

What's the problem?

Everybody knows.

There is a serious fault line in Italy's own players!

There are not enough local players to support them, and they blindly rely on foreign aid, and high-level foreign aid has to compete with the Premier League, La Liga, and even the Bundesliga, so it will cost more money.

But where do the Serie A teams get the money?

In this case, the decline of Serie A is already a clear thing.

Whether it is Inter Milan at the head, or then Roma, or even AC Milan's Silvio Berlusconi, they are now lying flat.

Carlo Ancelotti was inexplicably envious as he stood in front of the visiting team's dugout at the Calderón Stadium at this moment, watching Atletico's young players play energetic and fast-paced attacking football on the pitch.

He also wants to build a team of his own, just like Yang Hao.

This should be something that all managers dream of, right?

Build your own team, and then go to the top stage to compete with many peers.

Winning or losing, sometimes it doesn't matter anymore.

But Ancelotti is becoming more and more aware that this wish of his is difficult to become a reality in Serie A, at least with the naked eye, in Serie A in the next ten years.

Because the youth training in Serie A is completely rotten.

Perhaps, it is time to consider other options.

Ancelotti let out a long sigh with mixed feelings.

I hereby solemnly declare: I don't sell my art, and I am by no means a casual person! Ladies and gentlemen, don't be greedy for my body anymore! Kneel and beg for a monthly pass!
