Chapter 116: Becoming the Enemy of the Whole World [Big chapter of ten thousand words, begging to subscribe]

next morning.

When Yang Hao returned to his room and soaked in the comfortable bathtub, he was still immersed in the gentleness of last night.

I have to say that this woman fascinated him.

After learning that she would stay in Dubai to work for some time in the future, Yang Hao also took the opportunity to invite her to visit Atletico Madrid's training camp and watch Atletico Madrid's game against Bayern.

Ambrosio readily agreed.

As a result, many things happened naturally.

He didn't sleep all night last night, and just after squinting for a while, Yang Hao was woken up by the doorbell.

After struggling to get up and open the door, he saw Carlos Leo rushing in, staring at Yang Hao eagerly, as if he was afraid that he was missing a piece of meat.

"What's wrong?" After closing the door, Yang Hao lazily walked towards the guest area of ​​the suite.

"What else? I almost called the police last night."

"Call the police for what?"

"Where were you last night?"

Yang Hao was stunned for a moment, raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, "No, just walking around in the hotel."

"Really? Then I called you last night, why didn't you answer the phone?"

Yang Hao couldn't stand the look in Carlos Leo's eyes, so he stood up with a guilty conscience and walked over to pour himself a glass of water.

"Oh, maybe the battery is out. I didn't even notice. Nokia will be finished sooner or later!"

But it's clear that Carlos Leo doesn't believe it.

"What time did you come back last night?"

"It's 2 o'clock."

"Then I came over and knocked on the door twice, but why didn't you open it?"

"Fell asleep."

Yang Hao felt that this topic must end here, and immediately became impatient, "What exactly do you want to say?"

"I meant to say, I almost thought you were kidnapped."

Yang Hao chuckled and became happy, "Just me? I'm a pauper, who kidnaps me?"

Looking at Carlos Leo again, his eyes were red and bloodshot. He looked like he hadn't slept all night. He was obviously really worried.

"Okay, okay, I'll tell you when I go out later."

Weird.

Yang Hao had made an appointment and was going out tonight.

How could you tell him such a thing?
Not only could I not tell him, I even had to think of some way to send him back.

It's inconvenient for him to do anything here if he's in the way.

Anyway, the team is coming to Dubai for winter training, so why not just wait in Dubai?

……

Just do it.

After the club's affairs were settled, Yang Hao found a reason to stay and let Carlos Leo go back by himself.

At first, Carlos Leo was kept in the dark.

But a few days later, when the media published a photo of Yang Hao and Ambrosio renting a yacht in Dubai and going out to sea, Atletico Madrid's poor light bulb executive still didn't understand that he had been deceived.

He was so angry that he called Yang Hao on the spot to "question" what he meant?
He insisted on asking for two meals before giving up with Yang Hao.

However, he also promised to help Yang Hao rent a house in a wealthy area in the western suburbs of Madrid.

After getting along for a while, Yang Hao felt that the two of them got along quite well, and they "happened" to be exposed by the media, so it was logical that it would be more convenient to rent a house.

It’s impossible for Ambrosio to always come to Mahadahonda to find him, right?
After Atletico Madrid's players returned to the team after Christmas, they heard about the head coach and immediately admired them all.

According to the introduction of Belletti and other Brazilian players, Ambrosio is the fastest-growing model in Brazil in the past year or two. The key is that he is very beautiful.

Adriano even said in a tone full of envy and admiration: "The boss is really worthy of being the boss. From Miss Spain to our supermodel in Brazil, the transition is seamless."

"Who says it's not the case? There is absolutely no window for love."

"If you ask me, the most important thing is that the boss is handsome. Didn't you see what was said in the newspaper? The two fell in love at first sight."

"Well, that makes sense. The boss is indeed handsome."

"A man of great good looks and talent. A man like the boss is charming wherever he goes."

"I wish I were half as good-looking as the boss." Lucio said plaintively.

Everyone fell down.

Half...Are you planning to kill all the plastic surgeons in the world?

……

Since we had planned our itinerary well in advance, everything went according to plan.

After gathering in Madrid, Juanma Lillo led the team on the Emirates Airline plane and flew to Dubai to meet Yang Hao.

After the players had all checked in and packed their luggage in the room, Yang Hao held the team's first internal meeting after the winter break in the hotel's conference room.

Before the meeting, Yang Hao had already learned from the coaching staff about the physical conditions of the players after returning to the team, especially some of their problems during the vacation. Some players were not self-disciplined enough, which was also severely criticized by Yang Hao.

And those self-disciplined players were naturally praised by name.

Among them, the one who surprised Yang Hao the most was Adriano.

Several Brazilian players in the team returned home to spend Christmas with their families, and inevitably they were a little indulgent. However, after Adriano returned to the team, his physical condition was still in good condition, which surprised Yang Hao.

After careful questioning, I found out that it was his father who took him to the gym to train every day.

Afraid that Adriano would reject him, his father also practiced with him, setting an example.

This really surprised Yang Hao, and he was somewhat emotional.

No matter what, Adriano cannot be allowed to repeat the mistakes of his previous life!

Judging from the current situation, his father insists on taking medicine and his blood pressure is effectively controlled. As long as he persists, I believe there will be no problems.

At present, Adriano's parents both have a job in Madrid and have given birth to a second child. Even his grandmother is still in Brazil, saying that she is not used to living in a foreign land in Europe.

This also made Yang Hao believe that he had really changed Adriano's destiny.

And if Adriano's fate has also changed, then what else can't he change?

In Yang Hao's previous life, this season's La Liga championship should belong to Real Madrid, and it was one with obvious advantages.

Now, with one more Zidane, Real Madrid's advantage will be even more obvious.

But Yang Hao doesn't believe in evil.

Could it be that his appearance and the Atletico Madrid he created really do not have the strength to compete with Real Madrid?

And the UEFA Cup.

Although, with the expansion of the Champions League, the influence of the UEFA Cup is no longer what it used to be, it is still a European war honor.

The eight third-placed teams in the first round of the Champions League group stage will all participate in the third knockout round of the UEFA Cup.

This includes teams such as Barcelona, ​​Leverkusen, Hamburg, Eindhoven, etc., plus teams such as Inter Milan, Liverpool, Roma, Porto and Werder Bremen that are already in the UEFA Cup.

Generally speaking, the current competition in the UEFA Cup is quite fierce and the gold content is quite high.

Especially after breaking into the top 16, you will encounter strong enemies every step of the way.

At the meeting, Yang Hao told his players very definitely that after the winter break, they all need to be mentally prepared to fight hard and hard.

"Because next, we will compete on three fronts: La Liga, Copa del Rey and UEFA Cup, and the pressure will be far greater than in the first half."

Yang Hao's words not only did not make Atletico Madrid players feel any pressure, but instead made them even more excited.

They are all players in their twenties, the age when newborn calves are not afraid of tigers.

What the hell is this pressure thing?

"I know that even now, there are still many people outside who are bad-mouthing us, thinking that we have no chance, and even think that we will fall from the First Army."

What Yang Hao said was basically the opinions of external media and the analysis results of gaming companies.

"But I have never looked down upon them."

"Because last season, when I took over Atletico Madrid, they were the same pessimists as they are now, but what was the result?"

"Now, we have a stronger lineup than last season, better players, and higher fighting spirit. I don't think we have no chance. On the contrary, I think we can compete with all opponents on all fronts. Better!"

Yang Hao's words were unanimously affirmed by the players, and there was a burst of warm applause in the conference room.

"I want to say that this road is definitely not easy to walk. As a champion, if it is easy, it will not have much gold content."

The players all smiled, but agreed with Yang Hao's words.

“But I always believe that we already have the strength to accept this challenge and win it!”

Yang Hao analyzed the current situation in La Liga and believed that the number one opponent for the championship is Real Madrid.

I have to admit that Real Madrid is indeed wealthy.

While the old sports city has not yet been sold, Real Madrid is currently actively operating Nesta and wants to bring the world's best central defender to the Bernabeu.

But Lazio is still quite wealthy today, and they directly rejected Real Madrid's offer.

There is also news that Real Madrid is eyeing Parma's main defender Cannavaro and Manchester United's defender Stam.

There are all kinds of rumors in the transfer market, and no one can tell whether they are true or false.

But one thing is for sure, Real Madrid is looking for a top central defender.

In Yang Hao's previous life, Real Madrid failed to recruit him successfully, but this time I don't know.

"I want to tell you, why does Real Madrid want to sign?"

"Because they are afraid! Because we put enough pressure on them in the first half! Because they are not sure that they can continue to lead in the second half!"

"So, guys, don't belittle yourselves and don't be afraid of your opponents. On the contrary, it is our opponents who are afraid of us now!"

"What better way to prove our strength than the fear from our opponents, right?"

Atletico Madrid's players all nodded, each and every one of them was infected by Yang Hao.

"No matter whether Real Madrid signs players or not, no matter what kind of players Real Madrid introduces, we should proudly tell them that it's useless. The championship this season will only belong to us, Atletico Madrid!"

"No matter how many superstars they bring in, the victory will still belong to Atletico Madrid in the end!"

The players once again gave warmer applause and cheers.

……

Atletico Madrid's winter training in Dubai was mainly divided into two parts.

On the one hand, there is normal training, including physical reserves and technical and tactical drills. In addition to continuing to polish the 4231 formation, Yang Hao also specially studied the 433, especially trying the single midfielder style of play.

For example, he wants to try the combination of Deco and Baraja/Cambiaso, and let Cambiaso/Xavi Alonso play the fourth position.

On the other hand, the team has two tactical meetings every day, mainly to review the problems exposed by the team in the first half.

After this period of coaching, Yang Hao found more and more that post-match review is really important. This is a very critical means for team improvement, because it allows players to clearly know where the problem lies. How to improve.

This is an improvement.

The entire winter training is carried out strictly according to the plan. Except for Atletico Madrid going out twice to cooperate with Emirates Airlines' promotional activities, the rest of the time is basically two points and one line in the hotel and training base.

It wasn't until the warm-up match against Bayern Munich that Yang Hao gave the team a half-day holiday.

For this warm-up match of winter training, neither Atletico Madrid nor Bayern paid special attention to results. They focused more on inspecting the players and fine-tuning the team's tactics.

For example, Yang Hao played 433 in the first half, then changed to 4231 in the second half. Later, he simply replaced Kaká, Torres, Gabi and other players.

The same is true for Hitzfeld, except that he has always insisted on using the 442 tactic, and Bayern's overall lineup is relatively mature and stable, so in the warm-up match, Bayern defeated Atletico Madrid 3-1.

Pandiani scores a goal for Atletico Madrid.

Yang Hao didn't take this result seriously.

On the contrary, he told the players that this warm-up match had a lot to gain.

Because Bayern is one of the strongest teams in European football today.

In the first half, Atletico Madrid played with 433 plus a substitute lineup that had not yet been adjusted, and only lost one goal to Bayern; in the second half, after playing a group of young players, the score was 1-2, and they only lost one goal.

Yang Hao was quite satisfied with this result.

……

After returning to Madrid from Dubai, Atletico Madrid ushered in the first game after the winter break.

In the third round of the Copa del Rey, they challenged Leganes in the Segunda División relegation zone away from home.

The first half of the game was very stiff.

Atletico Madrid had just gone through a training camp during the winter break, and the players generally had not yet entered the state. In addition, Yang Hao was saving energy for the following 17th round of La Liga, so this game did not go smoothly.

But before the end of the first half, there was a chance for a corner kick. Pandiani assisted with a header, and Santi Denia scored with a header, opening the scoring for Atletico Madrid.

With this goal, the subsequent games will be much easier to play.

After changing sides in the second half, Pandiani scored another victory for Atletico Madrid in the 53rd minute.

In less than 5 minutes, Leganes got a goal back first, but Pandiani soon scored again.

In the end, Atletico Madrid defeated Leganes 3-1 and successfully advanced to the top 16.

According to the schedule, after entering the top 16, a two-round knockout format began.

The opponent Atletico Madrid drew this time was Zaragoza.

……

Two days after playing in the Copa del Rey, Yang Hao attended a press conference in Mahadahonda in the afternoon.

Atletico Madrid currently ranks second in La Liga, and it is the first press conference after the winter break. There are quite a few media reporters present.

As usual, Yang Hao announced the squad that will participate in the away game against Espanyol tomorrow, and also introduced some specific current situations of the team.

He has received an application from the Brazilian Football Association, hoping that Adriano, Maicon and Kaka will return to China to participate in the South American U1 Championship starting in mid-to-late January.

This is a traditional event in South America, but it is usually held in January or February.

Maicon and Kaka are not a big problem, but Adriano is an important player in the team, and Yang Hao is still a little resistant.

Moreover, Adriano was selected for the national team at the end of last year. Is it necessary to play U20 now?
In the end, Cesar, the head coach of the Brazilian U20 National Youth Team, personally called Yang Hao and persuaded him for a long time. Adriano himself also wanted to return to China to compete, so Yang Hao could only agree.

But he repeatedly told Cesar that Adriano, Kaká and Maicon were all very important players for Atletico Madrid, and he would arrange for someone to follow them and report their situation at any time.

Cesar agreed.

The team's current schedule is quite tight. After the winter break, in addition to the league, there will be the King's Cup in January and the UEFA Cup in February, which are all very important events.

Of course Yang Hao doesn't have to agree, but he also has to consider the players' feelings.

Many fans will never forget why Kompany, the talented Belgian central defender, transferred from Hamburg to Manchester City?

It was Hamburg that prevented him from playing for Belgium in the Olympics.

Playing for the club is making money and is a job; fighting for the country is a bounden duty and even more noble.

This is why the World Cup is always the highest honor!
In an interview with media reporters, Yang Hao admitted that the departure of Adriano, Kaká and Maicon would have some impact on the team's combat effectiveness, but he believed that the team could overcome it.

"We still have Pandiani, we have Kiko, and we have Torres in the youth team."

Yang Hao believes that he believes that the team can overcome this difficulty.

More importantly, he expressed Atletico's philosophy of respecting the players' wishes.

This is actually part of the locker room culture.

The winter break is over, and the second half of the league is about to begin.

The leader, Real Madrid, is a topic that Atletico Madrid can't avoid because they are rivals in the same city, and because Atletico Madrid was only overtaken by Real Madrid before the winter break.

There have been rumors from the outside that Real Madrid wants to sign Nesta to further enhance their strength.

Yang Hao refused to comment on the signings of his rivals, but he said very confidently: "No matter who Real Madrid introduces, it is the same for us. We will overtake the standings again in the second half."

"I know that if I say this, you will definitely hype it up again and it will cause a lot of controversy, but I believe in my players."

When Yang Hao said this, his eyes were particularly confident and firm.

"There is no doubt that Real Madrid has a huge advantage in the schedule because they will play one game a week."

Yang Hao deliberately paused here, and sure enough, everyone burst out laughing.

This is to offend Real Madrid to death.

The following midweeks are all Copa del Rey games, but everyone knows that Real Madrid lost to the fourth-tier team Toledo in their first Copa del Rey game, so of course Real Madrid plays one game a week.

“But I have reason to believe that we will reach the summit again before February!”

As soon as Yang Hao said these words, the scene immediately exploded.

2 months ago?

Now until February, there are only 2 league games.

In other words, does Atletico Madrid want to overturn Real Madrid and reach the top again in the next four rounds of La Liga?
How can this be?

Real Madrid plays one game a week!
But soon, some senior media reporters below immediately guessed Yang Hao's intentions.

This is a psychological war.And without any disguise.

From the current point of view, the most likely threat to Real Madrid in the next four rounds of the league is the opponent in the 4th round, which is the fourth La Liga game. Real Madrid is a guest at the Mestanha Stadium to challenge Valencia.

This game will be difficult.

And Yang Hao deliberately said it was before February, which was clearly putting pressure on Real Madrid.

Of course, the premise is, can Atletico Madrid keep up with Real Madrid's rhythm and pace?
If Atletico Madrid collapses before Real Madrid falls behind, then whether Real Madrid loses or wins has no meaning to Atletico Madrid.

Therefore, Yang Hao is also motivating his team.

He is telling his players that as long as Atletico Madrid keeps up, Real Madrid will definitely fall at the Mestana Stadium.

By then, Atletico Madrid will be able to take its place in the standings and regain the top spot.

……

as predicted.

Yang Hao's few words at the pre-match press conference immediately caused a stir in Spain.

As a veteran and wealthy team and the flag of Spanish football, Real Madrid still has a very strong influence in the media circle, which is evident from the fact that they have royal mouthpieces such as Aspen and Marca.

These are very influential broadsheet newspapers in Spain.

On the other hand, Atletico Madrid has always been a veritable diaosi team.

Especially after Hill came to power, his behavior was even more incompatible with the Spanish mainstream. He got into a fight in front of the Football Association, which directly ruined Atletico Madrid's image.

Some time ago, Yang Hao and his Atletico Madrid led the standings. When the results soared, everyone could only endure it.

But now, even though Real Madrid has overtaken him, he still dares to speak out. How can the media tolerate this?
For a time, whether it was sincere or hype, doubts and even attacks on Yang Hao and Atletico Madrid became the most important news material for major newspapers and TV stations in Spain.

As a die-hard Real Madrid fan, Aspen editor-in-chief Alfredo Reilano pointed out in a column that with Atletico Madrid's current state and strength, as well as the age of the players, it is pure wishful thinking to win the championship.

The editor-in-chief of Real Madrid's mouthpiece is not only a supporter of Real Madrid, but also introduced Real Madrid's superstar strategy to Aspen.

Under his leadership, Aspen's reporting strategy has always been to insist on signing big-name stars and well-known reporters, which is simply in line with Real Madrid's traditional superstar strategy.

From this, it is not difficult to see how much he recognizes Florentino's business philosophy.

Now, how will he accept the provocation from his arch-enemy Atletico Madrid?

Oscar, the famous columnist of Aspen, even pointed out in his column that if Atletico Madrid can reach the top before February, he will go naked to Poseidon Square to celebrate Atletico Madrid.

This time the atmosphere was completely heightened.

Poseidon Square is the square where Atletico Madrid has always celebrated their championships, while Real Madrid is in the Harvest Goddess Square.

In fact, Atletico Madrid's disadvantage in the media field can also be seen in this contest.

When Real Madrid has media such as AS and Marca, who are building momentum for them and even acting as thugs, Atletico Madrid can only fight alone, which is very disadvantageous.

But there is no way, who makes Atletico Madrid lack this kind of foundation?

Only De La Morena, the gold medal presenter of Radio Ser, fought back crazily in his own show and called for Atletico Madrid. However, he was alone and found it difficult to cope with the overwhelming questioning.

Yang Hao didn't pay attention to the doubts from the outside world. He was more concerned about the inside of the team.

Unlike outside, in Atletico Madrid's locker room, everyone generally agreed and supported Yang Hao's words.

No one is convinced that Real Madrid has reached the top, and everyone is working hard to overtake.

The louder the doubts outside, the stronger the rebellion in Atletico Madrid's locker room, and the more players hold their breath.

In contrast, Yang Hao is very optimistic. He told his players, "Enjoy it, there are not many opportunities to be enemies of the whole world!"

"When we get back to the top, these unscrupulous weaklings will kneel down and sing Conquest!"

That would be meaningless.

However, there are also many more neutral voices.

For example, the Spanish intellectual Aragones, who has played for Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid, indirectly recognized Yang Hao's judgment and believed that based on the current situation, the results in January will initially form a situation for winning La Liga this season.

The coach's reason is also very simple. Next, they will face two-line or even three-line battles. This will be a severe test for any team, and whoever can lead after January will have the advantage.

As for those who fell behind in January, it will be very difficult to catch up later.

Aragones's remarks are equivalent to supporting Yang Hao's judgment. After January, whoever leads will have the advantage.

……

Round 17 of La Liga.

Real Madrid's game is earlier than Atletico Madrid's.

Galacticos traveled to northern Spain to face Alaves away from home.

Alaves is currently at the top of La Liga and is not weak in strength, but when facing Real Madrid, which has superstars such as Zidane, Figo and Raul, head coach Mane was timid from the beginning.

In the opening stage, Alaves, who was playing at home, was so timid that they did not dare to press out.

On the contrary, it was Real Madrid. Del Bosque put out 442, with the double forward combination of Morientes and Raul in front, and the midfielder of Zidane, Makelele, Helguera and Figo.

In the 13th minute, Raul received an assist from right back Gremi and scored a goal for Real Madrid.

Only then did Aravis wake up from a dream.

Head coach Mane began to signal the team to press heavily and confront Real Madrid head-on.

It paid off for them.

In stoppage time, center back Telles scored a header from a corner kick in the frontcourt to equalize the score.

Seeing that the situation was looking great, especially after the second half, Alaves, who had tasted the sweetness, continued to put pressure on Real Madrid.

But in the 50th and 53rd minutes, Begogna, who assisted his teammates in scoring in the first half, received two yellow cards and was sent off with a direct red card.

This red card severely damaged Alaves' morale. One minute later, Carmona scored an own goal to "help" Real Madrid reverse the situation.

After having one more player than their opponents, Real Madrid not only did not perform better, but became a little confused.

It wasn't until the 88th minute that Munitis, who came on as a substitute, assisted Guti, who also came on the bench, to score.

Real Madrid defeated Alaves away 3-1.

However, Alaves' head coach Mane criticized the referee for unfair enforcement after the game. He believed that Begogna's first yellow card was unwarranted, but it was a second yellow card for intentional handball outside the penalty area. Mane accepted it.

……

When the news came that Real Madrid defeated Alaves in an away game, Atletico Madrid was actively preparing for the game against Espanyol.

When Yang Hao received the news, he directly informed his players of the results without hiding anything.

"Our opponent won!"

When Yang Hao spoke, his eyes were always observing his players.

He saw determination in each of their eyes, confidence, and trust in the head coach.

This trust is very important.

"We have no other choice. If we want to regain our honor and the leader that originally belonged to us, we have no choice but to go all out and fight with our opponents!"

"As I said before, I believe you!"

The players of Atletico Madrid walked into the stadium under the leadership of the referee with the determination to win.

The Spaniard's finances are not generous. After selling Pochettino, they did not use the income to sign players. Instead, they directly promoted the 20-year-old Lobo from the second team.

In this way, the Spaniard's central defender combination is Lobo's partner Soldevilla. One is 20 years old and the other is 21 years old. They are both players of the Spanish National Youth Team. They have good potential, but they are too young.

Espanyol's head coach Flores has also complained many times about this, but the club does have no money.

In this case, just make do.

But who would have thought that Atletico Madrid would not talk about martial arts when they came up, and directly caught the two young central defenders of the Spaniard and beat them desperately.

Pochettino previously played for Espanyol, but this game he played for Atletico Madrid. Before the game, he also helped the team analyze Soldevilla's technical characteristics, because the two have partnered many times before, and Pochettino was very fond of him. Very familiar.

The Spaniard's league ranking this season is poor, currently only 17th, facing a relegation crisis, and has problems on both offense and defense.

The offensive end relies heavily on Raul Tamudo, and the defensive end consists of two young central defenders, which is a big problem.

When the game reached the 19th minute, Atletico Madrid's Vicente broke through with the ball and sent a cross from the left.

Under Pandiani's pressure, Soldevilla made a mistake in a close-range clearance and actually kicked the ball into his own goal.

1 is better than 0!

After that, Atletico Madrid took advantage of the victory and continued to launch a fierce attack and suppression on the Spaniard.

In the 34th minute of the first half, there was still wonderful cooperation between Vicente and Aurelio on the left. Vicente passed the ball back near the baseline, and Pandiani hit a shot from close range to expand the score again.

2 is better than 0!

This score was also maintained until the end of the game.

Atletico Madrid defeated Espanyol 2-0 away from home.

……

The Madrid duo won at the same time, Valencia also narrowly defeated Racing Santander 1-0, and Barcelona also narrowly defeated Real Oviedo 3-2 away from home.

They scored 3 goals in a row in the first half, but they played a mess in the second half. Not only did their opponents score 2 goals in a row, they almost tied or even came back. Barcelona seemed to have won, but their actual performance was criticized.

Irueta's Deportivo lost to Valladolid 1-3 away from home.

After 17 rounds, Real Madrid leads the La Liga standings with 40 points, while Atletico Madrid ranks second with 39 points.

But then came Valencia with 32 points, followed by Deportivo La Coruña and Barcelona, ​​and Mallorca quietly rose to sixth place.

This also made many Spanish media sigh with emotion.

Although Yang Hao is a bit arrogant and tries to challenge Real Madrid's hegemony, his coaching level is still very high.

After a season of reorganization, Atletico Madrid was able to use its reborn performance to closely catch up with Real Madrid and rank second in La Liga. This result is dazzling enough.

On the other hand, Irueta, after signing three Atletico Madrid core players and Spanish internationals, performed better in the same period than last season, but compared to Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid, it inevitably eclipsed it.

Some media are even asking: Belleron, Capdevila and Molina all went to Deportivo for the championship, but now, seeing Atletico Madrid ranked second in La Liga, do they regret it?

In the following midweek knockout round of the Copa del Rey round of 2, Atletico Madrid drew 2-[-] at home with Zaragoza.

Adriano is away and the schedule is so intensive that the team has to rotate.

Although Reyes and Pandiani each scored a goal for the team, the defense also had repeated problems until the opponent scored the second goal in the 85th minute.

In the end, the two sides shook hands 2 to 2 to make a draw.

……

Round 18 of La Liga.

The opening game of this round is at Camp Nou, Barcelona faces the challenge of Valladolid.

In the 45th minute, Abelardo's red card plunged Barcelona into the abyss of despair.

At this time the score was still 0-0.

Just when everyone was worried, Barcelona captain Guardiola stepped forward.

Although the melons are not completely bald now, their performance at critical moments is really unambiguous.

With one less player in the team, Guardiola led the team to rise, first assisting Kluivert to score from a corner kick.

Former Atletico Madrid player Caminero scored a goal 3 minutes later to equalize the score.

Subsequently, Valladolid launched a fierce attack on Barcelona, ​​forcing Barcelona to retreat frequently.

When the game was about to end and the two sides were about to shake hands and make peace, in the 2nd minute of stoppage time, Guardiola took a direct free kick from 30 meters away and penetrated Valladolid's goal, allowing the team to surpass the score again. .

2 minutes later, Rivaldo broke through with the ball and scored by himself.

3 is better than 1!

Barcelona won a wonderful duel.

Following Barcelona, ​​the second game, Deportivo La Coruna played against Valencia, was also quite exciting.

In this strong dialogue, neither team was able to score, but in the 56th minute, Valencia forward Ily was sent off with two yellow cards.

Then, it wasn't until the 89th minute that Makai scored for Deportivo.

1 is better than 0!

The next day, Atletico Madrid welcomed Rayo Vallecano at home.

Yang Hao's team showed an aggressive momentum from the beginning, especially on the offensive end.

In just 6 minutes, Pandiani assisted Deco to score, opening the scoring for Atletico Madrid.

But the front line was very happy, and the defense also made mistakes.

During a counterattack by Juande Ramos' side in the 17th minute, Michel scored to equalize the score.

The two sides fought hard for 45 minutes in the first half and ended up with a 1-1 draw.

But in the second half, the game changed sides and fought again, and the game completely entered Atletico Madrid's rhythm.

Especially Cambiasso, who started in place of Gravesen in this game, performed very well.

He first assisted Baraja to score in the 51st minute; then in the 68th minute, he assisted Deco to score twice; and then in the 75th minute, he assisted Joaquin to score the team's fourth goal.

From 50 minutes to 75 minutes, the game completely became Cambiaso's personal show.

The Argentine midfielder played his best 25 minutes since joining Atletico Madrid and showed an unprecedented state.

Yang Hao knew clearly that this was related to Atletico Madrid's recent competitive pressure.

After all, Atletico Madrid wants to take back the leadership position from Real Madrid.

As long as it is against Real Madrid, Cambiaso is very motivated.

What was even more unexpected was that at the last moment of the game, Carvalho, who came on as a substitute, also took advantage of a corner kick and scored with a header.

5 to 1, Atletico Madrid bloodbathed Rayo Vallecano at home!
At the post-match press conference, Yang Hao once again shouted to Real Madrid from afar.

"We are in very good shape and we are waiting for our opponents to make mistakes!"

But a few hours later, Real Madrid defeated Real Oviedo 4-0 at home.

This is also a hearty victory.

More importantly, Bosque has been adopting a 442 tactic recently, and players such as McManaman and Munitis who came on the bench in this game all scored goals one after another and performed very well.

The Spanish media also fought back wildly, believing that Yang Hao's provocation would only make Real Madrid more motivated.

"As the strongest team in La Liga and even European football, Real Madrid is not afraid of any challenge!"

Del Bosque also said, "Real Madrid does not have any crisis and the team's situation is excellent."

……

Midweek, the second leg of the Copa del Rey knockout round of 16.

Due to the continuous fighting, Atletico Madrid players are physically tired. Yang Hao's rotation and Adriano's return to the country were all exposed in this game.

Atletico Madrid lost to Zaragoza 1-2 on the road and were eliminated with a total score of 3-4.

This is also related to Yang Hao's first guarantee of league results.

After all, the Copa del Rey is lighter than the league.

But in the eyes of the media, this is a sign that Atletico Madrid will be unable to withstand the pressure and will collapse.

Aspen reporter Oscar commented in a column, believing that Yang Hao's season strategy has problems. Losing the Copa del Rey is just the beginning. There will be La Liga and the UEFA Cup next, and Atletico Madrid will lose one front after another.

"By February at most, Atletico Madrid will be completely defeated!"

After losing the Copa del Rey, the outside world also expressed concerns about Atletico Madrid's prospects.

In the final analysis, Atletico Madrid is still too young and the lineup is relatively thin.

……

Three days later, La Liga ushered in the 19th round.

The opening match was still Barcelona's away game, which defeated Valencia 1-0 thanks to Frank de Boer's goal.

In the away game against Malaga, Deportivo lost a goal in 3 minutes, but then Mackay equalized the score.

Before the end of the game, in the 84th and 89th minutes, Scaloni scored twice.

Yang Hao was really unfamiliar with the future head coach of the Argentina national team and the young coach who helped Messi embrace the World Cup. Even though he later learned that he was coaching Argentina and checked it out, he really had no impression. .

But judging from his performance in Deportivo, he is really very strong. His various wide-ranging diagonal passes and long passes are really accurate and very threatening.

This is a player with a very high IQ.

Yang Hao was also puzzled as to why his sense of existence in his previous life was so low.

But Yang Hao's mind quickly changed.

Real Madrid's away game against Valladolid, Atletico Madrid star Caminero once again scored.

He scored a goal for Valladolid in just 3 minutes.

Then Carlos and Morientes each scored a goal to help Real Madrid reverse.

But at the critical moment, Caminero fell to the ground after fighting with Real Madrid midfielder Celades in the Real Madrid penalty area. The referee awarded a penalty kick, and Fernando scored in one stroke.

2 is better than 2!

Real Madrid draws!
