389 The Great Trend Is Over! The man standing behind Platini! [10,000 words, kneeling and begging for subscription]

Messi won the FIFA Ballon d'Or again, which sparked a flood of praise from the media and fans around the world.

In particular, when he delivered a speech, he said in public that he would give the Ballon d'Or to Ramos, which caused countless fans to be moved, believing that this was the embodiment of Atletico Madrid's good dressing room atmosphere.

Subsequently, on the way back to Madrid, Ramos posted a photo of himself with the Golden Globes on social platforms, and said that he would take it home and decorate a room to place it.

"This is a gift from my best buddy!"

The media also quickly dug deeper into more insider information.

It turned out that as early as during the youth team, Messi had promised to give his friends the Golden Ball Award.

In addition to Ramos, there are David Silva, Luka Modric and Angel Di Maria.

This is really going to make a big deal out of it.

Before Messi, Kaka was the superstar who won the Ballon d'Or and World Footballer of the Year the most times, but only three times.

Messi has now got it twice.

The point is, the Argentine is only 24 years old.

No matter which way you look at it, as long as he continues to stay at Atletico and maintain his current form, it is natural for him to continue to win the Golden Ball.

But if he wants to give it to so many people, he has to take at least 5 seats, is this possible?

The media and fans all over the world have begun to discuss, even the fans who are optimistic about Messi do not think that there is such a possibility, the reason is simple, age.

At the age of 24, he got 2 seats, and according to the peak of professional football, he has 6 years left before he is 30 years old.

Could it be that in the next 6 years, he will take 1 seat every 2 years?

This has never happened in the history of world football.

Especially considering that once a player has reached a certain peak, it is inevitable that they will slack off and want to maintain the highest level of performance, which is basically impossible.

William Hill, a well-known European bookmaker, even specially offered a odds for fans to bet on how many Ballon d'Or awards Messi can win?

With the help of this wave, fans are betting feverishly.

Although it won't be revealed until years later, it won't stop the avid fans.

From the perspective of odds, the odds of winning 3 seats are the lowest, which obviously means that fans are optimistic that Messi can get at least 1 more seat.

The odds of taking 4 seats are slightly lower, and obviously many people feel that Messi still has a chance to surpass Kaka.

Even, Messi's overtaking of Kaka will be a high probability event.

But if you want to get to 5, or even 6, the odds are getting higher and higher, even very high.

Almost everyone felt that this was impossible and unrealistic!

Regarding this, Yang Hao also expressed his affirmation and support for Messi in an interview with media reporters.

'I don't think he's going to slip down after back-to-back Ballon d'Or because he's very different.

Yang Hao believes that Messi belongs to the kind of player who really likes to play football from the bottom of his heart.

"Many people see playing football as a profession to earn money to support their families, some people see playing football as a pursuit of self-realization, and Messi sees playing football as his biggest interest and hobby in life."

"No matter when or where, as long as you give him football, he can be happy."

"He was born to live for football!"

Therefore, Yang Hao feels that as long as Messi can still play, he will continue to work hard.

As for how many Ballon d'Or awards can Messi win......

Yang Hao smiled and said that he really didn't know.

"With his current age, his form and technical characteristics, and his self-disciplined character, I think it's ......."

Yang Hao was a little hesitant, thinking about whether it would be too scary for him to say it?

But in the end, he said it very simply.

The words are not shocking, and the death is endless!

Now is the era of eyeball economy, who is afraid of whom?

"I think he can get at least eight seats, and if he plays well, 10 seats are possible!"

After finishing speaking, Yang Hao also said with great regret, "It's a pity that the bookmaker didn't offer such high odds, otherwise, I would have invested 1 million euros!" ”

To paraphrase Atletico Madrid's marketing director Carlos Leao knelt down in private: "Yang, you understand traffic!" ”

As soon as Yang Hao's words were exposed by the media, he grabbed the front page headlines of major media around the world at great speed.

Countless media and fans, whether supportive, opposed, questioned, or despised...... It's all about it.

Many "hostile" fans and media who don't like Yang Hao on weekdays also stood up to accuse Yang Hao at this time, thinking that he was trying to support his beloved disciple, and he didn't even want the face of the world's top coach.

"I've seen people who tout their own players, but I've never seen them blow like this!"

"Yang Hao, do you still have a bit of a handsome bearing?"

"Kneel and lick Messi, lick as humble as you, Yang Hao, you are so ashamed!"

Public opinion from the outside world is really surging.

Yang Hao responded on Twitter, "In this world, people who tell the truth are always scolded the most viciously, I'm used to it!" ”

This has led him to more criticism and accusations.

But Messi took the initiative to find Yang Hao and thanked Yang Hao for his recognition and support.

"Boss, believe me, I will do my best not to disgrace you!"

Yang Hao kindly hugged Messi's shoulders and encouraged: "You don't have to have any pressure, just play normally, but I'm not joking, I have absolute confidence in you!" ”

"If you win less than 8 Ballon d'Or awards, that's my failure!"

When Messi heard this, he was first shocked, and then moved.

In the days that followed, Messi was particularly excited in training.

……

In midweek, Atletico beat Real Mallorca 2-0 at home in the first leg of the Copa del Rey quarter-finals.

Although Yang Hao still plays in the rotation and substitute lineup, Atletico Madrid has performed very steadily in home games.

The most surprising game of this one was Real Madrid's 2-1 home defeat to Barcelona at the Bernabeu.

Juande Ramos' Barcelona scored two goals in a row after conceding a goal away from home.

This battle completely kicked out Barcelona's morale, and also made the questionable Juan de Ramos barely stand on his feet.

……

Weekend, La Liga round 20.

Messi, who is in full form, was in a strong performance in the home game against Real Sociedad.

A corner kick was created in the opening 5 minutes, Ramos scored with a header, 1-0!

Then, Andres Iniesta sent a series of clever passes, and Messi scored a hat-trick.

Although Real Sociedad pulled a goal back, Atletico Madrid finally beat Real Sociedad 5-1 at home.

In this battle, Messi made a long face for Yang Hao.

Real Madrid relied on Cristiano Ronaldo's brace to beat Athletic Bilbao 4-0 away.

Valencia, on the other hand, beat Osasuna 4-0 at home.

……

Three days later, Barcelona drew 2-2 at home to Real Madrid and knocked them out of the Copa del Rey with an aggregate score of 4-3.

Arsene Wenger's side have not been very good at home, but they have been completely dominant on the road.

But you can't score points.

Barcelona successfully eliminated Real Madrid and won a round of applause from the Camp Nou.

Valencia beat Levante 4-1 at home and 3-0 away.

Atletico beat Real Mallorca 1-0 away to advance to the semi-finals with an aggregate score of 3-0.

In this way, the teams that will advance to the semi-finals are Atletico Madrid, Valencia, Barcelona and Espanyol.

After the draw, Atletico Madrid met Valencia and Barcelona met Espanyol in a local derby.

……

At the weekend, the 21st round of La Liga.

Real Madrid beat Zaragoza 3-1 at home.

Arsene Wenger's side began to focus on the league after being knocked out of the Copa del Rey.

Barcelona drew 0-0 away at Villarreal.

The problem of fighting on two fronts began to plague Barça.

Atletico played in the Copa del Rey with both rotation and substitute line-ups, so they played their main role in the league at the weekend.

Eden Hazard and Fernando Torres both scored braces, and Messi scored twice to help Atletico beat Osasuna 5-1 away.

After scoring 10 goals in two consecutive games, Atletico Madrid's offensive storm can be described as a global phenomenon, which has been appreciated by countless fans around the world.

……

Three days later, the first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-finals.

Atletico are at home to Valencia.

Entering the semifinals, Yang Hao began to pay attention to it and slightly increased the investment of resources, but core players such as Messi and Kaka were still absent from the starting lineup.

Carlo Ancelotti's Valencia have made several mistakes in a row this season and dropped a lot of points, and the current hope of winning the La Liga title cannot be said to be absent, but it is not as good as the Madrid duo.

So, Carlo Ancelotti began to concentrate on the Copa del Rey and the Champions League.

In the end, the two sides played to a 2-2 draw at the Emirates Stadium.

Atletico failed to win Valencia at home.

……

Three days later, it was still at the Emirates Stadium and ushered in the 22nd round of La Liga.

Atletico Madrid did their best this time, Valencia took the attacking tactics after the opening, and in the eighth minute, Nani scored a goal to open the scoring for Valencia.

But after a wave of rushes, the game completely entered the rhythm of Atletico.

Messi turned on the furious mode and entered the show time.

In the 21st, 27th, and 35th minutes, Messi scored three goals in a row to help Atletico Madrid reverse Valencia and also scored a hat-trick.

After the rematch in the second half, Messi scored another game in the 55th minute, 4-1, and staged a big four!

And just before the end of the game, Sergio Busquets also scored.

5 to 1!

Atletico beat Valencia at home.

Carlo Ancelotti's side suffered a humiliating defeat.

In this regard, Ancelotti expressed disappointment, believing that Valencia's main problem is that the defense is not doing well.

3 consecutive rounds of La Liga, all 5 to 1, such a crazy offensive really shocked the media and fans all over the world.

However, in the second leg of the Copa del Rey semi-finals, Atletico lost 1-0 away to Valencia.

In the end, it was 2-3 and was eliminated by Valencia.

This is also related to Yang Hao's lack of attention to the Copa del Rey.

Stars in the team, including Messi and Kaka, were absent from the game.

In the other matchup, Juan Ramos' Barcelona returned to Camp Nou after drawing 1-1 away at Espanyol and beat their opponents 2-0 to advance to the final with an aggregate score of 3-1.

This season's Copa del Rey final has become the pinnacle of Barcelona and Valencia.

……

Elimination from the Copa del Rey was just an episode.

As many media have said, with the current fierce competition in La Liga, it is very, very difficult for a team to maintain a third-line operation.

Atletico Madrid defeated Racing Santander 2-0 in the subsequent 23rd round of La Liga with Messi's brace.

Although it was a 2-goal win, in fact, there were still a lot of dangers in the process.

Barcelona lost 3-2 away to Osasuna after qualifying for the Copa del Rey final.

Real Madrid defeated Levante 4-2 at home with Ronaldo's hat trick.

Valencia beat Deportivo La Coruna 4-0 at home.

……

La Liga Round 24.

Real Madrid beat Racing Santander 4-0 at home.

Atletico beat Deportivo La Coruna 1-0 away.

Since midweek is the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 knockout round, Atletico Madrid is going to challenge AC Milan away, so Yang Hao has a large rotation in this game, and the team performed well, but the goal efficiency is not high.

Barcelona beat Valencia 2-1 at home.

Carlo Ancelotti's team's defensive problems this season have been more serious, especially in the strong dialogue, which is more obvious.

……

On the evening of February 21, the San Siro Stadium in Milan, Italy.

The butterfly effect brought by Yang Hao, the impact on other leagues and other giant teams, is vividly reflected in AC Milan.

The head coach is still Allegri, but the current AC Milan team has a lot less stars than Yang Hao's previous life, including the likes of Ibrahimovic, Robinho, Aquilani and Thiago Silva.

These players are now in La Liga.

However, as an Italian team, Allegri still put on a very tight defensive formation at home.

Especially for the veteran Ambrosini, Van Bommel and Seedorf to form a back three, plus Kevin Boateng in front, this four-midfield combination is still a relatively big threat to Atletico Madrid.

Allegri adopted a tight counter-attacking tactic, especially with Pato, who specifically targeted Atletico's weak points and counter-attacked on both wings.

It worked out in the game as well.

Although Atletico Madrid played away from home, they showed their strong strength from the beginning and controlled the game.

In the 14th minute, Adriano used a furious shot from the edge of the penalty area to break through goalkeeper Abbiati's five fingers.

But just seven minutes later, in a quick counter-attack, Seedorf sent in a clever pass and Pato countered from the left, won the ball in the box, shook off Pepe and slotted home to equalise for AC Milan.

Ten minutes later, a clever pass from Kaka allowed Messi to break through AC Milan's goal again and exceed the score again.

2 to 1!

After the rematch in the second half, AC Milan once again used high pressing and pressing, and launched a fierce impact on Atletico Madrid.

This is also the change brought about by Allegri's management of AC Milan, he used high-pressure tactics in midfield to contain the opponent's attack, which is quite effective for Atletico.

Pato staged another counter-attack in the 55th minute, when Kevin Boateng stepped in and burst into the Atletico penalty area to equalise for AC Milan again.

But in the 63rd minute, Messi assisted Kaka to score a goal.

3 to 2!

The score was maintained until the end of the game.

The whole game was very intense, but there was a serious lack of highlights.

The main reason is that the tactics adopted by AC Milan, especially the midfield, have played a certain role in containing Atletico Madrid, so that the attack of the Bed Legion has never been fluent.

However, AC Milan also paid the price.

That is, in the last half hour, they were almost all retreating.

The physical exertion and the age of the players make it difficult to maintain such a tactical style of play.

3-2 away, Yang Hao is also satisfied with this score.

He is confident that he will teach Allegri a hard lesson at home in the second leg between the two sides.

……

Back in Spain, Atletico Madrid ushered in the 25th round of La Liga.

This time it was Atletico who hosted Barcelona.

Juan de Ramos' side are currently battling it out to retain a top-four finish in the league, so it was a very intense game.

Just look at the yellow card.

From the opening seven minutes, Tevez received the first yellow card, followed by Bruno Alves, Juanfran and Miranda.

In just 33 minutes of the first half, Barcelona had already received four yellow cards.

It is clear that Juan de Ramos has learned from Allegri's experience and wants to adopt this aggressive style of play to contain Atletico's attack.

Moreover, the Sheets have faced strong opponents in the Champions League and La Liga, which is also a big challenge.

But in the 36th minute, Modric sent a clever pass, Marcelo burst into the left side of the penalty area, and fired a low shot past Buffon to open the scoring for Atletico.

After the rematch in the second half, Tevez equalized for Barcelona and once saw hope of a comeback.

But Messi's goal in the 69th minute helped Atletico Madrid win 2-1 at home to Barcelona.

Valencia lost 2-1 at home to Sevilla in this round.

Mauricio Pochettino's side have been getting better and better this season, especially after the winter break.

Yang Hao recommended several players in the past, all of whom began to exert their strength in the league and became an important fighting force for Sevilla.

This is not only good for Sevilla, but also good for Yang Hao.

Real Madrid were similarly poor, being stubbornly sniped at Rayo Vallecano away from home.

Even, after the whole game was played, Real Madrid failed to create many chances.

Until the 88th minute, Felipe Melo was red carded for a foul in the penalty area, and Real Madrid also got a penalty opportunity, and Ronaldo hit the penalty.

1-0, Real Madrid narrowly beat Rayo Vallecano away.

……

After playing the 25th round of La Liga, there was a short national team training camp in midweek.

This is the last training camp for the national team before the end of the season.

Due to the European Championships, the major leagues have reduced their schedules, so the national team training camps in March and April have been cancelled.

And on February 29, each national team organized a friendly match.

The match was scheduled to take place in Málaga, southern Spain, where Spain's opponent was Venezuela.

Yang Hao played with a full bench lineup, the purpose was to examine the fringe internationals of the national team, and finally defeated Venezuela 5-0 at home and won a victory.

After this game, the next training camp of the Spanish national team will have to wait until the end of the season, the three warm-up matches before the European Championship, but at that time it is already the final sprint for the European Cup.

Therefore, after this national team training camp, Yang Hao has basically drawn up Spain's squad for participating in the European Cup.

To Yang Hao's surprise, before the start of the game, the president of the Spanish Football Association, Bilal, called him and asked him to meet secretly after the game.

"Gianni Infantino wants to talk to you."

Infantino?

Yang Hao was taken aback.

He didn't want to get involved in the dispute too soon, but Bilal had clearly started to make moves and was looking around for his allies, and Infantino was clearly his most important ally.

Otherwise, Bilal is afraid that he will not be matched.

Thinking of this, Yang Hao still decided to meet.

……

In Yang Hao's previous life, there was a rumor that one of the important reasons for Platini's downfall was the "betrayal" of Gianni Infantino.

For this Swiss bald head who became the president of FIFA by chance, Yang Hao has always felt that he is not simple.

For example, in Yang Hao's previous life, he was able to make a decisive move when Blatter and Platini were in prison, and in a very short period of time, he strategized, defeated many competitors, and won the FIFA presidentship.

This guy's abilities are extraordinary.

Of course, the clues can also be seen from his resume.

Since joining UEFA in 2000, he has been working in law and business, and has been a doer, until Platini defeated Johansson to take the throne, and he was UEFA secretary general.

The so-called secretary general can be regarded as the CEO of an enterprise.

Almost all specific matters are handled by the Secretary-General.

Of course, there are exceptions.

For example, when Gianni Infantino later became FIFA president, he appointed FIFA secretary general, but as president, he took power by himself, and at the same time won support through various initiatives and reforms.

What impressed Yang Hao the most was that during the World Cup, he attended all 64 matches of the Qatar World Cup.

This has little to do with the size of Qatar, but it is not easy to travel back and forth like this.

From this point, it can be seen that this guy is not simple.

From the deep hiding of Platini's assistants to the later monopoly of power, Infantino became the biggest beneficiary of the fall of Blatter and Platini.

Yang Hao has already met Blatter and Platini, and this time Infantino came to the door, and he also wanted to see him.

Meet the man standing behind Platini!

……

The level of secrecy of the meeting was very high, and the hotel where the Spanish national team stayed was selected, and it was in Yang Hao's luxury suite.

Bilal picked up Infantino in a special car, went directly from the hotel's underground parking lot, went up to the floor where Yang Hao was, and entered Yang Hao's room, ensuring that he would not be seen the whole time.

At this time, if it is spread and Platini and Blatter know, Yang Hao will definitely be fine, but Infantino will ......

The UEFA butler took such a big risk, and it was naturally not easy to ask.

Time is precious, and the opening of the meeting is just a simple polite greeting.

Infantino told Yang Hao very bluntly, "I can help you bring down Platini!" ”

"Gianni, you're kidding." Yang Hao shook his head with a smile.

"I have such a good relationship with Michelle, and you have seen it with your own eyes, why would I want to bring him down?"

Infantino is very interesting, he is fluent in many foreign languages, including Spanish.

So, they were communicating in Spanish the whole time.

"If that's the case, then you can give Platini a call and confess to me, I'm sure he'll thank you very much, Jan." Infantino was very decisive.

Yang Hao had to take a fresh look at the UEFA secretary general, who was regarded by Platini as a right-hand man.

"I don't understand, why?" Yang Hao decided not to pretend.

"The tide is over, the ship is sinking."

Yang Hao's eyes flashed with a hint of appreciation.

He's a traverser, so he knows what's going on.

But at this time, being in the game, especially not participating in the planning of Yang Hao and others, can see this general trend clearly, Infantino is really not simple.

At the very least, this vision is really poisonous.

In comparison, Bilal is much worse.

"The investigation by the Swiss prosecutor's office is progressing quickly, the investigation of the FIFA Independent Ethics Tribunal has just begun, but it is only a matter of time, and the United States has also begun to investigate Chuck Blazer, and the French government has already launched an investigation into Sarkozy and several senior officials."

This is also something that Yang Hao did not expect.

The 2 million Swiss francs from Platini actually pulled out the radish and brought out the mud, causing such a big storm.

Now, that 2 million Swiss francs are the eye of the storm.

As long as they sit down, Platini and Blatter will be finished.

"To be honest, even so far, no one knows who leaked Platini's 2 million Swiss francs from Blatter, and it is said that their number one suspect is no longer Zheng Mengzhun, but Chuck Blazer."

"Even, Blatter began to be a little suspicious of Valker."

Yang Hao nodded solemnly, "The person who broke the news must be someone within FIFA or UEFA, who is very close to Blatter or Platini." ”

Speaking of this, Yang Hao suddenly understood, and the whole person raised his head and looked at Infantino.

This kid is also forced by the situation.

Blatter began to wonder about Valk, so would Platini be wary of Infantino?

When it comes to loyalty and trust, Blatter must believe in Valker more.

The cooperation between Platini and Infantino is more like a combination of interests, each taking what he needs.

"You should know that there won't be much time left for them to investigate, and once the turmoil has passed, with the means of Platini and Blatter, they will definitely be able to influence Switzerland, France, and even the US government, and finally settle the whole matter."

"After all, in the past so many years, there have been countless scandals in the football circle, and haven't they all been settled in the end?"

Yang Hao agreed.

"So what can you do?"

"You know, I studied law, and I'm not only familiar with Swiss law, but also with the rules and operating mechanisms of FIFA and UEFA, and I can help connect the independent ethics court with the Swiss prosecutor's office."

"You know, it will take at least two or three years for FIFA's independent ethics tribunal to investigate these matters alone, but if it cooperates with the Swiss prosecutor's office, or with the judicial system of various governments, to fight corruption together, the progress will be faster, the efficiency will be higher, and it will be more credible!"

Yang Hao must admit that what Infantino said is the truth.

In his previous life, it took more than two years from the establishment of the Independent Ethics Court to the production of the Garcia report, and then it was hidden and pressed by Blatter until 2015.

After all, the football system is not the judicial system of the government, and the human, material, and resource resources are too bad.

What's more, FIFA's football empire has always prided itself on being detached from the real world and not subordinate to any country or government.

In the past, whenever there were some scandals, Blatter was able to come forward to settle them.

The way to use it is the exchange of interests.

For example, in the ISL corruption case, Blatter came forward and reached a consensus with the Swiss government, spending money to get the Swiss government to promise not to disclose it to the public.

If it weren't for the French government's fierce quarrel and boiling public resentment this time, it is estimated that the Swiss government would not have broken its promise.

One of the most typical examples is the United States.

Why did the United States suffer such a big loss, even if it is investigating Blazer, but it still has no good way to take FIFA?

How detached is FIFA?

The United States is notorious for its long-arm jurisdiction, most notably the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, or FCPA, established in 1977.

FCPA is intended for officials of international organizations, including the International Customs Association, among others.

However, FIFA is not one of them!

To put it simply, the long-arm jurisdiction of the United States does not control FIFA.

Of course, this is from a legal point of view, and if the United States really wants to do it, with their hooligan character, they can completely find all kinds of ways to do it, and even create a legal basis out of nothing.

But for now, even the United States can't control it.

This shows how detached FIFA really is.

Infantino is not wrong at all, don't look at the current situation in a uproar, FIFA seems to be on fire everywhere, but in fact, as long as they survive this period of time and appease all forces, Blatter and Platini have a way to settle down.

After dealing with external forces, FIFA and UEFA closed their doors, that is, the question of how to cut the cake.

Yang Hao had to reacquaint himself with Infantino.

Professionals, and the core executives of UEFA, are not simple!

"Say, what do you want?" Yang Hao asked tentatively.

He was never convinced that Infantino was simply trying to bring down Platini, that it was impossible.

He must have his own pursuits.

"Although Blatter and Platini were elected on the votes of small countries in every election, in fact, they knew very well that without the support of the big countries, they would not be able to move an inch in the football kingdom."

"If you want to run for FIFA president, you have to have the support of European football, and that's 53 votes!"

"In order to win at UEFA, in addition to getting a sufficient majority of votes, the support of the club is also essential."

The so-called support of the club, not only the support of the club, but also the support of the stars, coaches and celebrities, is very important for any candidate.

Perhaps, they don't have the votes in their hands, but they control the volume, and their words can quickly spread to every corner of Europe and quickly form an influence.

Especially Yang Hao, Atletico Madrid, and the entire La Liga.

"You want to run?" Yang Hao understood Infantino's pursuit.

The Swiss bald head had been looking at Yang Hao all the time, observing the change in his expression, and nodded slightly, indicating acquiescence.

"FIFA or UEFA?"

"Everything."

Yang Hao noticed that Bilal on the side wanted to speak and stopped, and immediately guessed that the two should have reached a preliminary consensus.

They want to step up now, and the two want to take down Blatter and Platini and replace them.

As for who will go to FIFA and who will go to UEFA, it should not have been agreed yet.

If it weren't for today's conversation, Yang Hao really hadn't considered Infantino.

But after such a contact today, he has to admit that Infantino is indeed very capable, and much better than Bilal, he is more suitable to go to FIFA, represent European football, and fight with all continents.

Don't look at FIFA and UEFA are always on the wrong track.

Can you find it?

For so many years, with the exception of the Brazilian Havelange, the president of FIFA has been European.

This is also in line with Yang Hao's interests now.

If Bilal is allowed to go to FIFA, I am afraid that he will not be able to fight.

As for UEFA, Bilal is familiar with the road, and with the backing of Spain and La Liga, it should not be difficult to deal with it.

If none of this is done, then he deserves to be replaced.

With the current momentum of Yang Hao, Atletico Madrid and La Liga, no matter who is the president of UEFA, it must be taken seriously.

Not to mention, once UEFA completes the reform, Yang Hao must weaken the power of the UEFA president, enhance the club's power in UEFA, and then form a checks and balances.

Therefore, whether Bilal can do a good job as UEFA president is not important to Yang Hao, and it is all a matter for the future.

Now the number one priority is how to bring down Platini.

The appearance of Infantino undoubtedly gave Yang Hao an excellent opportunity.

"Deal! As long as you can bring down Platini, Atletico Madrid and I, and even the entire La Liga, will stand up and support you! Yang Hao gave Infantino a promise.

He also did not reveal Atletico's tandem in European football over the years, especially the private links with the major clubs.

This is his killer feature.

For now, although Infantino has submitted his name and Yang Hao believes that he really wants to cooperate, this killer feature can't be used casually.

It's a fool's errand to expose your hole cards too early!

"Okay, give me half a year!" Infantino said confidently.

Half a year?

It's not that long.

Yang Hao has always believed in one sentence: this world is a set of grass deck teams.

UEFA is the grass team, and so is FIFA.

Anyone who is familiar with Platini and Blatter, who is familiar with UEFA and FIFA business, will deny this.

The reason why the past gave people a very mysterious and detached illusion is very important is that they are mysterious and not familiar to outsiders.

Moreover, they skillfully beat the interior into a monolith through various interests.

All infighting is basically a power struggle within the framework.

……

No one knows that after playing the warm-up match in Venezuela in Spain, Yang Hao met with Infantino and Bilal at the hotel where he stayed.

After Yang Hao returned to Madrid, he talked about this matter with Cerezo, Little Hill and others.

Then he started to pounce on the league again.

In the 26th round of La Liga, Atletico Madrid defeated Sevilla 1-0 away.

Affected by the national team competition, neither team performed very well.

Atletico Madrid beat Sevilla thanks to Eden Hazard's goal.

Valencia also beat Granada 1-0 away.

Barcelona narrowly beat Deportivo La Coruna 2-1 at home.

Real Madrid beat Espanyol 3-1 at home thanks to Gonzalo Higuain's brace and Cristiano Ronaldo's goal.

……

La Liga Round 27.

Arsene Wenger's side reversed Real Betis 3-2 on the road thanks to a brace from Cristiano Ronaldo and a goal from Gonzalo Higuain.

Atletico beat Granada 2-0 at home thanks to Lionel Messi's brace.

Valencia drew 2-2 at home to Real Mallorca.

So far, the situation of La Liga has become clearer and clearer.

Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid have completely left Valencia and other teams behind them.

Carlo Ancelotti's team has not been particularly good overall this season due to defensive reasons, and there are a lot of mistakes.

Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid have always maintained a momentum of going hand in hand, and their form is very stable.

……

On the evening of March 13, the Emirates Stadium in Madrid.

In the second leg of the Champions League round of 16, Atletico Madrid hosted AC Milan.

Just two minutes into the opening game, Messi got rid of the defender after receiving Kaka's pass on the right rib, and completed a very beautiful one-two with Iniesta on the left side of the arc area, and broke into the AC Milan penalty area.

To the left of the penalty spot, the Argentine got up and struck past Abbiati.

1 to 0!

This goal completely sounded the clarion call for Atletico Madrid's opening attack.

After scoring the lead, the Sheets were on full swing.

In the 7th minute, after Alves received Suarez's cross on the right side of the penalty area, he passed the ball back and handed it back to Kaka, who was dragging behind.

The Brazilian did not stop the ball in the face of Alves' return pass, but sent a pick pass to the incoming ball.

The ball went over the defender's head and into the penalty area behind him.

The Argentine stepped forward quickly, unloaded Kaka's cross in the middle, and slotted the ball into the AC Milan net.

2 to 0!

Brace!

The entire Emirates Stadium was boiling in an instant!

Yang Hao's best opening attack once again had an effect.

In less than 10 minutes, he already had a two-goal lead.

With an aggregate score of 5-2, Atletico Madrid has basically sealed the win.

As for the rest of the games, there is actually not much point left.

After taking a two-goal lead, Atletico played more calmly, while AC Milan was more cautious and prepared.

Neither side was able to score again in the first half.

After the rematch in the second half, AC Milan wanted to threaten at one point, but Atletico almost seized the opportunity to extend the score.

Messi dribbled with the ball in the 49th minute, created a free-kick from the edge of the box and took it himself, almost scoring a hat-trick.

This also made AC Milan break out in a cold sweat.

The difference in strength between the two sides was indeed obvious, and Allegri had no choice but to adopt a defensive tactic.

It's Atletico.

After Yang Hao's successive substitutions, several players who came on as substitutes showed very positive behavior, and once frequently threatened.

But in the end, they couldn't find the back of the net against AC Milan.

Atletico Madrid eliminated AC Milan with a brace from Messi, 2-0 at home, and 5-2 on aggregate, and successfully reached the quarterfinals of the Champions League.
