Chapter 162: Wild victory!This must be a shady story! [A big chapter with [-] words, please beg me to subscribe]

On the evening of August 8, Madrid’s Santiago Bernabeu Stadium.

In the first round of the Spanish Super Cup, Atletico Madrid challenged local rival Real Madrid away.

This game, which was originally a bit tasteless, has become a hot topic because of the city derby between the Madrid duo.

But when the game progressed to the 51st minute, when Figo made a pass from the right and sent the ball into Atletico Madrid's penalty area, goalkeeper Palop and central defender Carvalho both made misjudgments. When he went to grab the ball, Yang Hao knew that the game was over.

Raul seized the opportunity in the gap between people, and with a slight header, he sent the football into Atletico Madrid's goal.

1 is better than 0!

In an instant, the entire Bernabeu Stadium was completely boiling.

More than 7 Real Madrid fans rushed out of their seats crazily, shouting and even roaring at the Atletico Madrid players in the stadium.

There are still many fans shouting Yang Hao's name, asking him to come over and die!
It is obvious that Real Madrid fans have a very, very deep resentment towards Atletico Madrid and Yang Hao.

So deep that they have the desire to buy and kill people.

Not only the fans of Real Madrid, but also the players were extremely excited after scoring a goal.

Raul even got a little carried away interacting with fans on the sidelines, and the same was true for other players.

Because, last season, Atletico Madrid really brought too many painful memories to Real Madrid.

But tonight, they want to give everything back to Atletico Madrid!

Even if it's just a tasteless Spanish Super Cup!

……

"There is no tacit understanding."

As the goalkeeper coach, Pedro Haro immediately saw the team's current problems.

Van der Sar is different from other goalkeepers. The Dutch goalkeeper is very good at commanding defense, and the team's defense has become accustomed to Van der Sar's command in the past two years.

This kind of thing is like this. You are not used to it at first, but once you get used to it, it is difficult to change.

Now that Van der Sar is gone and has become Palop, many things have changed.

To readapt to this change requires another process.

"According to past habits, where the ball landed just now, it was usually Van der Sar who struck, and he would communicate well with Carvalho and others, for example by shouting."

"We saw that Carvalho had his back to the goal. When he was judging the path of the ball, he shouted, but Palop did not respond in time."

Pedro Haro analyzed the situation with Yang Hao on the spot.

"Palop is not Van der Sar. There is a height difference of more than ten centimeters between the two, and their control ranges are completely different. So Van der Sar had the confidence to attack, but he did not, which caused a mistake."

Yang Hao nodded, "I understand, it's okay."

In fact, judging from the performance of the entire game, Palop still performed well.

Except for this mistake.

Real Madrid also encountered the problem of tacit cooperation today.

Goalkeeper: Iker Casillas;

Defense: Carlos, Hierro, Cannavaro and Salgado;

Midfield: Makelele and Vieira form a double defensive midfielder, with Zidane and Figo on the wings;
Forwards: Raul and Ronaldo.

It can be seen from the starting lineup that Real Madrid is sending all its main players to play.

But during the game, Real Madrid's players did not cooperate well enough, mainly Ronaldo and Raul. Their routes often overlapped, which required a little more time.

Makelele and Vieira are quite good, they are partners in the national team, and the intensity of Real Madrid's midfield has also increased significantly.

Yang Hao arranged a 4231 formation tonight.

Throughout the summer training camp, Yang Hao focused on practicing the 4231 and 433 formations.

Goalkeeper: Palop;

Defense: Evra, Carvalho, Lucio and Maicon;
Midfield: Simeone and Baraja at the back, Reyes, Deco and Joaquin at the front;

Forward: Diego Forlan.

During the summer training camp, Cech and Palop performed very well. Although the latter has been Canizares's substitute for a long time, he is very strong and maintains good condition. He is obviously a very self-disciplined player. , always be prepared.

Needless to say, Cech was the best goalkeeper in the Czech Republic last season.

The opinion of Yang Hao and the coaching staff is that the two goalkeepers compete fairly.

In the first leg as a guest at the Bernabeu, Palop started, and in the second leg back at the Calderon Stadium, Cech started.

The coaching staff will fully consider the performance of the two goalkeepers before allocating the subsequent playing time and game tasks.

Judging from the whole game, Palop performed very well, but this time he made a mistake.

There are no problems with the defense, midfield and forwards, and the players are all familiar with each other.

The key is that the double defensive midfielders of Makelele and Vieira are too hard-core. Atletico Madrid has not yet adjusted its state, so it is difficult for the midfielder to create opportunities.

Diego Forlan also did not perform very well when facing Cannavaro and Hierro, and failed to seize several opportunities.

From this point of view, Atletico Madrid must have fallen back in terms of attacking tough battles.

There's no way around that either.

It is unrealistic to say that Adriano's departure has no impact on Atletico Madrid.

Yang Hao's consideration is to strengthen the use of Torres and Drogba, especially Drogba.

This guy is a master at attacking tough situations.

The summer training camp is more about warm-up matches, more about running in the team and adjusting the state. The real test still comes in actual combat.

Torres will be promoted to the starting lineup this season. Although this kid is young, he is fearless and has the demeanor of a general.

After three years of training, his physical confrontation ability is also very strong. After all, European whites have nothing to say about their quality.

At 1 meters tall, although his body is not as ferocious as Adriano, his explosive power at the start is even better.

After being carefully cultivated by Yang Hao for two years, especially after making up for the shortcomings of his right foot, Adriano can be regarded as the best impact center in world football today, and there is no need to add another one later.

Torres's left and right feet are both excellent. Originally, he was a bit weak in stopping the ball, and his passing and receiving was not very stable. However, in the past two years, under the meticulous care of Kiko and the technical coach, coupled with the training of La Liga and La Liga With practice, he has made great progress.

Even holding the ball with his back has improved a lot.

But he still needs to prove himself further.

This is also the reason why Yang Hao chose Diego Forlan to start.

The Uruguayans missed a lot of opportunities tonight. In the muscle jungle built by Hierro, Cannavaro, Vieira and Makelele, Diego Forlan was obviously a little lost.

……

In the first round of the Spanish Super Cup, Atletico Madrid lost 0-1 away to Real Madrid.

As soon as the game ended, it immediately caused a carnival in the Spanish media.

In particular, Real Madrid's mouthpiece AS reported it as if it were a holiday, celebrating crazily while constantly belittling Atletico Madrid.

They all lack tacit understanding. Aspen believes that Real Madrid stars need more time to integrate into the team, and Del Bosque also needs more time to adjust the lineup and tactics.

But for Atletico Madrid, sorry, after selling 6 main players in the summer, Atletico Madrid's strength has plummeted.

Palop is simply not as good as a finger from Van der Sar. Diego Forlan has completely turned into a good boy in front of Hierro and Cannavaro. Atletico Madrid's overall competitiveness is far less than last season.

Gold medal reporter Oscar even announced: "Atletico Madrid can be removed from this season's championship list!"

What is even more unexpected is that a week later, in the second round of the Super Cup, Atletico Madrid faced Real Madrid at home. In just 47 seconds, Real Madrid created an opportunity, which was not strictly speaking a good opportunity.

When Ronaldo's counter-offside catch was about to result in a one-on-one shot, Marchena fouled someone from behind.

The referee directly gave a red card and sent Marchena off the field.

With 90 minutes left before the game, the Spanish international can go back to the locker room and take a shower.

Yang Hao had to make a quick substitution, replacing Joaquin with Pochettino, and the team adjusted its tactics.

What is the most outrageous thing?

This guy walked off the field and when he saw Yang Hao, he looked at the coach with an innocent face, "I just pull his jersey out of habit, who knows..."

Yang Hao took a flying kick, but Marchena dodged it.

"You still dare to hide?"

In the end, Marchena really didn't dare to hide and was "kicked" firmly by Yang Hao, but the force was quite light.

After being kicked, Marchena was relieved.

He understands Yang Hao and is willing to kick him, which proves that he forgives him. If he doesn't even bother to kick him, then he probably has given up on him completely and even wants to sell him, which will make him even more uneasy.

"Go back and reflect carefully. If it doesn't work, just chop your hands off. You have ruined the big show of labor and management's home reversal!"

Marchena could only enjoy himself and hurried back to the locker room.

God knows what he was going to do in the locker room during these 90 minutes?
Yang Hao smiled bitterly, and Juanma Lillo and others were also very helpless.

Sometimes, players are like that.

Is Marchena a good player?

It's really good and strong, but unreliable.

Of course, Spain's central defenders are extremely unreliable.

Puyol and Ramos were also a virtue when they were young.

"This should be the fastest red card in the history of La Liga, right?" Parales asked with a wry smile.

"No." Yang Hao replied calmly.

"no?"

Juanma Lillo also laughed bitterly and explained: "Last season, when Tenerife played Sevilla, Argentinian player Marioni was sent off by the referee with a red card 11 seconds into the game."

"How?" Parales felt puzzled.

11 seconds, brother.

When the game starts, it takes more than 11 seconds to pass the ball.

Can this get a red card?

Yang Hao felt funny when he thought of this. God knows what kind of brains these bastards have?

However, in his previous life, he vaguely remembered that Marchena also had a record of receiving a red card at the beginning, but the opponent was definitely not Ronaldo.

Well, this time he faced Ronaldo, and at least he made progress.

"Juanma, we have to hire a coach who is familiar with these...you know, this kind of thing. I feel that our players are too unreliable." Yang Hao said.

Juanma Lillo almost laughed. Is he planning to teach players how to commit fouls? Can they still avoid getting cards?

Still, think about it.

He got a red card less than 1 minute into the game. Did he give the coach a chance to survive?

"I'll make the arrangements." Juanma Lillo planned to find candidates.

"Also, I want to punish him. Punish him to death." Yang Hao had already kicked him, but he still couldn't understand his hatred.

There is no way, I got a red card in the first minute of the game, how can I play this game?
Keep it!

In the end, Atletico Madrid defended tightly and played Real Madrid 0-0 to the end.

The total score was 0-1, and Atletico Madrid lost the Spanish Super Cup.

……

Atletico Madrid's loss of the Spanish Super Cup caused a great response in Spain and European football.

This cup is indeed a bit tasteless, but after all, it is also the championship of an official competition.

In the two rounds of the game, Atletico Madrid failed to score Real Madrid's goal, which made Real Madrid very excited.

But Yang Hao doesn't see it that way.

"We had one less player than our opponents throughout the entire 90 minutes, but they failed to score our goal. This proves that our opponents are not that strong."

"If we have all the personnel in place, we will definitely be able to win!"

Yang Hao's words once again triggered heated discussions in the Spanish media, especially AS, which is close to Real Madrid, and launched a wave of attacks on Yang Hao, believing that he was a dead duck after losing the Spanish Super Cup. Tough talk.

However, some neutral and objective media believe that what Yang Hao said is quite reasonable.

Real Madrid's current offense is still not adjusted well. Except for the offense that caused Marchena's red card, Ronaldo did not perform very eye-catching most of the time.

On the contrary, Atletico Madrid did a pretty good job on the defensive end.

Especially the young goalkeeper Cech from the Czech Republic. Although his performance cannot be said to be perfect, he made several wonderful saves with high blocks and low passes throughout the game, causing Real Madrid's offense to come back without success again and again.

El Pais believed that with the second round match, "Cech deserves to be in Atletico Madrid's starting position."

However, Yang Hao also protested against Marchena's red card, believing that it was not a flagrant foul. The referee gave the red card at the beginning, which was obviously an excessive punishment.

"This red card completely ruined our hopes of a comeback."

"I have to say it again, we didn't lose to Real Madrid, we lost to Red Card."

Yang Hao's remarks defended his players, but also caused a lot of controversy.

In particular, the media who are close to Real Madrid are trying to make trouble for him in every possible way, thinking that it will be difficult for Atletico Madrid to win the championship this season, and Real Madrid has since got rid of its fear of Yang Hao.

Aspen's gold medal reporter Oscar even shouted in his column, "Next time we meet, remember to come over and meet the champion!"

According to the league schedule, Atletico Madrid met Real Madrid in the 1th round of La Liga on January 19.

By then, the half-distance champion will almost be announced.

Atletico Madrid will visit the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium to challenge Real Madrid.

However, Atletico Madrid's first round of La Liga this season was a visit to Camp Nou and an away game against Barcelona. This match with Real Madrid was in tandem, quite like a double attack.

Naturally, Yang Hao would not respond to Oscar's nonsense. This would not be of any benefit to him.

After playing in the Spanish Super Cup, Yang Hao closed the door and analyzed and studied the gains and losses of the two rounds with the team.

Marchena became the focus of criticism and was also fined heavily. He also apologized to everyone and promised to never do it again.

In addition to this red card, Atletico Madrid only conceded 1 goal in the two rounds against Real Madrid, which was full of superstars. Yang Hao and the coaching staff were actually quite satisfied.

Especially in the second round, in Calderon, with one player missing for the entire game, Atletico Madrid managed to maintain its unbeaten home record since Yang Hao took charge, and its defensive strength is worthy of recognition.

Cech also initially won the approval of his teammates.

Yang Hao also felt it. If he continued to promote Cech as the main goalkeeper, there would be basically no resistance.

Since Diego Forlan started both rounds and failed to score a goal, Yang Hao will arrange for Torres to start in the European Super Cup four days later.

Before the team set off for Monaco, Yang Hao specially called Torres to his office and had a good talk with him about his plans and trust in him.

More importantly, "I hope that in the new season, you will be able to take on more and heavier tasks, just like Adriano did before, rushing to the forefront of the team and attacking for us. Village!"

Torres also felt Yang Hao's ardent expectations for him and solemnly promised that he would never let him down.

Like Adriano, scoring goals and winning for Atletico Madrid has also been Torres' long-cherished wish.

……

On the morning of the 29th, after the training session, Atletico Madrid and his team set off from Madrid to Monaco.

After checking in at the hotel prepared by UEFA in advance, Yang Hao handed over the team to Juanma Lillo to lead the team. Accompanied by Cerezo and Xiao Hill, Yang Hao headed to Monaco's Grigio. Malti Conference Center.

This is the first time Yang Hao has attended the UEFA draw ceremony.

Last season, although Atletico Madrid won the UEFA Cup championship and Yang Hao was nominated for the best coach, he did not attend the award ceremony and draw ceremony because he knew that he must be a companion.

But this time, he got very definite news.

It was Spanish Football Federation Chairman Bilal who personally called him and told him that he must attend.

Since there is a prize to be won, let’s go.

When Yang Hao, accompanied by Cerezo and Xiao Hill, took the elevator from the lobby on the first floor to the main venue on the second floor of the Grimaldi Conference Center, he was immediately infected by the atmosphere in the venue.

It was really lively!
Representatives of the 32 participating teams in the Champions League group stage, guests presenting awards, officials from UEFA and national football associations, as well as sponsor representatives, etc., all gathered together and filled the huge venue to capacity.

As soon as Yang Hao entered the scene, he immediately received a lot of attention.

He is the most watched young coach in European football in the past three years.

Since Yang Hao had never attended such an occasion before, no one came up to talk to him.

On the contrary, it was Cerezo, who quickly rushed towards the acquaintance.

"That's the European president of Nike." Xiao Hill introduced to Yang Hao from the side.

Yang Hao suddenly realized that this was Atletico Madrid's big benefactor.

"Don't you have to go?" Yang Hao was a little surprised.

He is Atletico Madrid's majority shareholder and the club's general manager.

"Just leave this kind of thing to Cerezo, he is better at it." Xiao Hill laughed.Yang Hao also understood Xiao Hill's character and didn't bother much about it, but he soon noticed that Florentino was also at the venue, and he seemed to be very popular. There were a group of people wherever he went. Follow, he is simply born to be a leading actor.

"To be honest, even as an opponent, I have to admit that Florentino is indeed very good at dancing." Xiao Hill said with conviction.

Even Cerezo is far inferior to Florentino.

Ability and means cannot be faked in this kind of face-to-face communication situation.

Whether he is a real talent or a real mediocre person, in this kind of venue where people are everywhere, his true colors will be revealed immediately after a little contact.

This is why, as the chairman of Real Madrid, the big bosses of the major European football clubs all bought into Florentino's account and ignored the clown-like Calderon at all.

To put it bluntly, Calderon just doesn't have the ability.

As for Florentino, he has the ability, but he is not there yet.

For example, now, Yang Hao is even guessing whether he is selling Morientes when he talks to the big guys of European clubs everywhere.

Originally, Florentino planned to use Morientes for Crespo, and later planned to use Morientes for Ronaldo, but the result was unsuccessful, causing Morientes to be very dissatisfied.

It is said that he also recommended Morientes to Manchester United, Liverpool and other teams, but they were unsuccessful.

The obvious purpose of Florentino's doing this is to recover part of the transfer fee. After all, Real Madrid invested too much this summer and brought in two superstars, Ronaldo and Vieira. It is impossible not to sell several players. of.

But selling it around without any dignity makes everyone lose face in the end.

Camacho, the former head coach of the Spanish national team and the legendary captain of Real Madrid, stood up and publicly criticized Florentino, believing that he should respect those players who have made significant contributions to Real Madrid more.

"Without Ronaldo, Real Madrid are already world champions!"

Yang Hao knew very well that Florentino was now focused on business, and his thoughts would not be persuaded or changed by anyone unless he experienced a painful blow and lesson.

……

Soon, Xiao Hill also met an acquaintance and left.

Edwin van der Sar and Adriano, who had just transferred from Atletico Madrid this summer, came over.

They are also nominated for tonight's awards. Van der Sar is the favorite for the best goalkeeper, and Adriano is competing for the best forward and best player.

Adriano became famous after scoring twice in last season's Champions League final.

After meeting, Yang Hao was naturally concerned about their situation in the new team.

Van der Sar is older, but Yang Hao is not worried. He is more concerned about Adriano.

Previously, Yang Hao made a special call to Cooper after the Brazilian transferred.

"Don't worry, boss, everything is fine with me. I have found a house and my parents will follow."

In addition, Almir just had an operation in the United States not long ago to remove the bullet. The operation was successful.

"You guys have to keep working hard, don't slack off, you know?" Yang Hao warned.

He was really afraid that Adriano would make the same mistakes as in his previous life.

"I know, boss, you don't know, Cooper's training is much crueler than ours, no wonder Ronnie can't stand him." Adriano complained.

The word "we" made Yang Hao feel very friendly. He was from Atletico Madrid.

Cooper is indeed "reputable" in this regard.

After that, Raul, Zidane, Ballack and others also arrived one after another. They were all shortlisted for this year's awards, which suddenly made the entire venue star-studded.

Since only last season's European competitions were considered, Ronaldo, who shone in the World Cup, did not appear this time. Otherwise, this event would have been comparable to the World Footballer Award Ceremony.

Later, Yang Hao also met with Ferguson, Del Bosque and others, and met Bobby Robson, the head coach of Newcastle, who had coached Porto and Barcelona, ​​and it was he who brought Mourinho to Barcelona.

So does Ronaldo.

"To be honest, what we are most afraid of now is meeting you Newcastle." Yang Hao made a joke.

The Magpies are not weak now, but they are ranked in the fourth tier. This is a challenge for all teams. Once they are drawn, they will be in the group of death.

"You have a shadow on the Death Group." Ferguson teased Yang Hao.

"The pressure in the group stage last season was too great. Fortunately, we are in the second group this season. I don't believe it, but we were drawn into the group of death!" Yang Hao was also angry.

"What if we really get it?" Bosque asked with a smile.

Yang Hao glanced at Bobby Robson and said, "If you get it again, it will be really shady!"

The crowd burst into laughter.

After a stellar performance last season, Atletico are now in the second tier of the Champions League.

However, the other three La Liga teams have entered the first pot.

Real Madrid, Valencia and Deportivo are all seeded teams, so Atletico Madrid will not meet them.

The five most likely opponents are Arsenal, Inter Milan, Juventus, Manchester United and Bayern.

In fact, Atletico Madrid is unwilling to touch Newcastle, and these five seed teams are also unwilling to touch Atletico Madrid. It is too difficult to deal with.

The second-tier teams are more difficult to organize than the seeded teams, and whoever touches them will be unlucky.

Dortmund, Bayer Leverkusen, Liverpool and Roma are also in the second tier.

"Tell me, among the five teams, who do you want to touch the most?" Ferguson said as if I would help you take it out.

As a result, Yang Hao looked at Ferguson maliciously and blurted out: "Manchester United."

There was a burst of laughter all around.

"Get out of here!" Ferguson almost ran away.

Labor and management don’t want to meet you!
In fact, the current Champions League group stage draw does not have as many topics as it will in the future.

A very important reason is that the strength of each league has not been fully expanded.

Needless to say, the four major leagues, even the French Ligue [-], Eredivisie and the Portuguese Super League, now encounter teams from the four major leagues, all of which have the strength to compete with the wealthy teams, and the middle and upper reaches are evenly matched.

This is the same as the fierce competition within La Liga.

But in a few years, as the strong teams become stronger and stronger, top stars continue to gather towards the rich clubs, and the gap between the giants in the top league and the strong teams in the second-tier league gradually widens, and even becomes insurmountable. of the gap.

This is actually a necessity.

Before the Bosman Act, the survival of European clubs still focused on youth training and domestic players, so this is the case for Real Madrid Five Eagles, Milan Dynasty, Barcelona Dream Team, Ajax, etc.

But with the implementation of the Bosman Act, free movement of players, the trend was not very obvious at first, but gradually, outstanding players gathered towards the head, and the trend of the stronger getting stronger will become more and more obvious, and even continue to accelerate.

This is an irreversible process and the inevitable result of a free competitive market.

The only thing Yang Hao can do now is to try his best to help Atletico Madrid develop quickly, catch up with this trend, and make Atletico Madrid one of the top teams.

……

The drawing ceremony and award ceremony were interspersed.

A prize is awarded once lots are drawn.

The best goalkeeper was awarded to Atletico Madrid's Edwin van der Sar, who beat Juventus' Gianluigi Buffon and Bayern Munich's Kahn to be elected.

Real Madrid's Casillas is not yet at his peak and has not even been nominated.

The best defender was given to Carlos, and no one from Atletico Madrid nominated it.

The best midfielder was given to Ballack. Deco, who has the best chance in Atletico Madrid, was not nominated this time.

Yang Haozhen feels that Deco is not only low-key in person and image, but also in his playing style on the court.

After helping Atletico Madrid win the Champions League, he was not even nominated for the best midfielder.

The best forward was given to Adriano.

Scoring twice in the Champions League final is a guarantee for him to win the award, and Raul has won the best forward for two consecutive years. This time he failed to achieve three consecutive championships. Although Ruud van Nistelrooy scored a lot of goals, this time Also lost to Adriano.

However, in the most important selection of the best player, both Adriano and Raul lost to Zidane.

This makes Yang Hao feel very regretful. Real Madrid's star-making ability is too strong.

how to say?

The Frenchman has indeed made great contributions to Real Madrid in the past year, especially at critical moments.

Although Real Madrid lost the Champions League final, Zidane turned out to be the most eye-catching star in the Champions League final, not even losing to Adriano who scored twice.

Now, Real Madrid is also doing its best to build momentum for Zidane.

The French bald man knew it was a high probability event before he received this award.

As expected, Yang Hao also won the best coach. He defeated Manchester United's Ferguson and Real Madrid's Del Bosque.

After receiving the award, Yang Hao just expressed his gratitude to the team and the players.

Bobby Robson received the Special Achievement Award.

Jardel, who plays for Sporting Lisbon, won the Golden Boot.

The draw results for the first stage of the Champions League group stage, which was interspersed with the awards ceremony, also came out.

Atletico Madrid's luck is actually quite good this time.

The seeded team drew Arsenal, the third pot was PSV, and the fourth pot was Auxerre from Ligue [-].

The overall strength of this group is not weak. No matter from which perspective, PSV and Auxerre have the strength to compete with Arsenal and Atletico Madrid.

Of course, the luckiest one is La Coruña in Irueta.

As a seeded team, Galatasaray, Lokomotiv Moscow and Club Brugge were drawn.

What the hell!

It's just a guaranteed shipment.

Besides lamenting that he was unlucky, what else could Yang Hao say?
It doesn't matter if luck can't beat Real Madrid, even Irueta got this kind of lottery.

If I were the hero of a novel, I would want to drag the author out and shoot him a hundred times.

Have you ever abused a male protagonist like you?
Especially for such a handsome male protagonist, it’s too much!

After the draw results came out, British William Hill immediately refreshed the odds of winning the top 32.

Real Madrid still tops the list, which shows that everyone believes that Galacticos is the number one favorite in the Champions League this season.

They are followed by teams such as Manchester United, Arsenal, Bayern and Juventus.

The Gunners sold Vieira but signed World Cup-winning midfielder Gilberto Silva.

Atletico Madrid and AC Milan are tied for 13th place, even worse than Valencia and Deportivo La Coruna.

The reason is that Atletico Madrid has suffered a serious loss of personnel and the previous Spanish Super Cup was not ideal.

……

On the evening of August 8, the Louis II Stadium in Monaco.

European Super Cup, Atletico Madrid vs. Feyenoord.

As the defending champion of the Champions League, Atletico Madrid used a 4231 formation to face Feyenoord in this game. It showed an aggressive momentum from the beginning and played offensive football.

Although Feyenoord is only an Eredivisie team, they did not give in in terms of momentum. They faced Atletico Madrid with 442, and they did not play conservatively, especially as an Eredivisie team, their defense was not tight.

You know, Dutch football has always respected offense.

Yang Hao's starting lineup tonight has made some adjustments compared to the previous Spanish Super Cup.

Goalkeeper: Petr Cech;
Defense: Evra, Carvalho, Lucio and Maicon;
Midfield: Marcos Senna and Xabi Alonso partner as a double defensive midfielder, with Robben, Kaká and Villa in front;
Forward: Torres.

The reason for this arrangement is that after playing this European Super Cup, Atletico Madrid returns to La Liga, and it will be the first round of La Liga and they will challenge Barcelona away.

Playing 3 games in 2 days, Yang Hao must rotate appropriately.

From the beginning of the game, the two teams played very open.

Atletico Madrid took advantage from the start and controlled the situation in the midfield, patiently looking for space in the frontcourt to attack.

In the first 3 minutes, Kaka threatened Feyenoord's goal with a long shot.

After that, the two teams went back and forth, attacking and defending each other.

However, it was difficult for Feyenoord's ball to pass through the midfield, because Atletico Madrid set up a strong strangulation formation near the midfield, especially Marcos Senna, who is not tall, but has excellent running coverage and pressing ability.

In the 6th minute, Senna intercepted the ball in the midfield and sent a diagonal pass.

After Villa dribbled the ball from the right, he sent a direct pass while diagonally crossing. Torres immediately shook off the defender and successfully countered offside. He took the ball and formed a single shot. After breaking into the penalty area, he calmly pushed the ball and hit the ball for Atletico Madrid. Opening the record!

1 is better than 0!

After scoring one goal first, Atletico Madrid did not give up on the good news, but Feyenoord began to frequently try to counterattack, which harassed Atletico Madrid to a certain extent, and the Shenlian Legion soon threatened again.

After stealing the ball in the midfield, Kaka stopped the ball with his back near the center circle, turned around, and quickly passed the ball to the right.

After Villa received the ball, he returned it to Maicon.

The Brazilian right back passed the ball to Xavi Alonso, who quickly passed it diagonally to Evra on the left.

The unguarded Evra dribbled the ball all the way and passed directly down the bottom.

Torres, who was connecting in the middle, and Kaká, who was at the front of the penalty area, both attracted the attention of Feyenoord's defensive players, leaving Villa unguarded when he ran to the back point.

The Atletico Madrid striker met Evra's cross and made a direct shot, sending the ball straight into Feyenoord's goal.

2 is better than 0!

For a time, the entire Stade Louis II was cheering for Atletico Madrid's wonderful offensive cooperation.

Everyone can feel that Atletico Madrid's offense is as sharp as ever.

More importantly, Atletico Madrid has not sent out all its main players tonight, including Deco and Joaquin, who are all absent.

After conceding consecutive goals, Feyenoord had to start strengthening their offense.

This is a single final, and unless they want to give up on their own initiative, they must attack.

Atletico Madrid relied on Marcos Senna and Xavi Alonso in the midfield to control the rhythm of the midfield, and with the cooperation of Kaká, they stabilized the ball.

In the 23rd minute, Robben and Evra formed an offensive cooperation on the left. Robben failed to form a breakthrough and retreated with the ball, passing it to Xabi Alonso to reorganize.

But Xavi Alonso didn't stop the ball and sent a through ball, which reached Kaká at the edge of the penalty area.

The Brazilian also did not stop the ball and blocked the ball directly.

The ball touched Kaka's foot, turned slightly in a different direction, and turned into the left side of the penalty area. Evra rushed all the way, broke into the left side of the penalty area, caught the ball, kicked off, shot, and scored in one go!
3 is better than 0!

After scoring, Evra turned and ran, cheering and celebrating along the way.

Yang Hao saw him like this on the sidelines and applauded him happily, but he was also feeling funny in his heart.

This kid still has a striker's heart hidden in his bones, and he will rush into the penalty area whenever he gets the chance.

Feyenoord has also begun to recognize the reality.

Conceding 23 goals in 3 minutes, how can we play this kind of game?
The strength gap between the two sides was too obvious. Even if Feyenoord was reluctant, they had to adopt a defensive and counterattack tactic.

Atletico Madrid continued to attack Feyenoord.

Among them, in the 38th minute, Feyenoord once got a chance and hit a very high-quality long shot from the left, but the crossbar was steadily lifted by Cech who was very focused.

At this moment, the Czech goalkeeper reminded Yang Hao of Genzo Wakabayashi in "Captain Soccer".

Don't try to score my goal outside the penalty area!
Before the end of the first half, Lucio's header almost broke Feyenoord's goal again.

After changing sides in the second half and fighting again, Feyenoord's forward Van Huyetangk also got a very good direct free kick opportunity from 25 meters, and the quality of the free throw was also very high.

As a result, Cech flew out and saved him.

Following the indiscriminate bombardment against Real Madrid in the last round, Cech performed extremely bravely. This game once again showed an amazing performance, and even goalkeeper coach Pedro Haro had to admit it.

"He really deserves to be in the starting lineup!"

However, just when Feyenoord actively tried to attack, they quickly paid an extremely painful price.

In the 61st minute, Robben took the ball from the left and faced Feyenoord's right back Gian. In a one-on-one situation, Robben dribbled the ball from near the baseline to form a breakthrough and passed to the back point.

The goalkeeper also interfered with Torres at the front point, and Villa scored again at the back point.

4 is better than 0!

Just 4 minutes later, the team was still attacking from the left. Evra sent a diagonal pass, and Torres took the lead. His whole body followed suit, and in an instant he completed the anti-offside game and scored with a single shot.

5 is better than 0!

This is simply a crazy massacre!

None of the more than 8000 fans at the Stade Louis II expected that such a one-sided slaughter would occur in the European Super Cup.

In terms of high emotional intelligence, Feyenoord is very brave.

But speaking of low emotional intelligence, the Eredivisie team just overestimated its capabilities and did not have an accurate self-positioning. They tried to compete with Atletico Madrid, but they were kicked out.

Even after 5-0, Atletico Madrid also received many consecutive shooting opportunities. Torres and Villa both had the opportunity to perform a hat trick, but the two young players failed to grasp it.

In the end, Atletico Madrid defeated Feyenoord 5-0 at the Louis II Stadium with two goals from Torres and Villa, and once again won the European Super Cup!

The 5-0 victory also completely washed away the negative impact of the Spanish Super Cup defeat.

　I see a lot of people discussing the lineup. In fact, in reality, these players all performed well in the 02/03 season, including young players such as Xabi Alonso, Reyes and Torres, and everyone can refer to it. Ajax in the past few years at the beginning of this century, imagine again, what kind of combat effectiveness would a team that is equally young, but has a higher strength and potential than Ajax, have?
