Chapter 293 Win another Grand Slam! The unstoppable Atletico Madrid [A big chapter with words, please beg to subscribe]

After all the 08 European Cup qualifiers came to an end, UEFA announced something else.

Due to the influence of the Club World Cup, the final round of the Champions League group stage, Atletico Madrid's home game against Steaua Bucharest and Slavia Prague's home game against Lyon, have all been adjusted to December 12.

That is to say, it will be held one week earlier than the competitions of the other seven groups.

At the same time, the Spanish Football Association also officially announced that the second round of La Liga Atletico Madrid's home game against Real Mallorca has been postponed again, and the specific time is to be determined.

This game was originally scheduled to be held on December 12, but now that the Champions League group stage has changed the schedule, the make-up games will naturally be adjusted accordingly.

It was only at this moment that many media and fans discovered that Atletico Madrid, currently at the top of La Liga, had one less game.

They are 1 point ahead of Real Madrid. This game is a home game, so they can at least get 1 point.

Returning to La Liga, we ushered in the 13th round.

Barcelona defeated Huelva 3-0 at home with goals from Gabriel Milito, Bojan and Tevez.

Real Madrid defeated Murcia 2-0 in an away game with goals from Ronaldo and Joaquin.

Atletico Madrid faces Valladolid at home in this round.

Only 2 minutes into the game, Torres responded in the penalty area. Kaká broke into the left side of the penalty area and scored with a low shot, opening the scoring for Atletico Madrid.

After that, neither side could score again throughout the first half.

But in the 50th minute of the second half, Marcelo's diagonal pass from the left reached the back point. After Messi stopped the ball and dunked past the defender, he curved the ball into the far corner and scored again, 2-0!

In the 56th minute, Xavi Alonso's free kick from the right was passed. All Valladolid's defensive players focused their attention on the front point, but ignored Messi, who was unguarded at the back point.

The Argentinian volleyed with his left foot and scored again!

Scored twice!

3 is better than 0!

In the 72nd minute, a diagonal pass from Alves from the right blocked Torres for offside. After breaking into the penalty area, he stopped the ball with his chest and volleyed with his right foot, giving Atletico Madrid another victory, 4-0!

This score was maintained until the end.

Atletico Madrid defeated Valladolid 4-0 at home with Messi's brace and goals from Kaká and Torres.

……

On the evening of November 11th, Stade Gerland in Lyon, France.

In the fifth round of the Champions League group stage, Atletico Madrid challenged Lyon away.

What made Yang Hao a little disappointed was that the talented youngster Benzema did not start this game and was replaced by Brazilian forward Fred.

But Atletico Madrid will no longer pay attention to its opponents.

The Shenlian Legion basically plays the game according to its own rhythm and style, without caring about what tactics the opponent adopts or what lineup they arrange.

In fact, what Yang Hao has to do in every game is relatively simple, which is to adopt targeted tactics to make Messi, Kaká and others more comfortable.

Only 2 minutes into the game, after Mascherano stole the ball in the backcourt, Kaka advanced with the ball and passed it to Messi when he entered Lyon's -meter area.

After the Argentinian got rid of Grosso with the ball, he suddenly sent a through pass with his left foot.

Drogba diagonally inserted into the right side of the penalty area, received Messi's pass, and crossed to the goal.

Iniesta followed up and scored with a push, 1-0!

Yang Hao and the coaching staff couldn't help but stand up and applaud.

"It can't be stopped!"

Guardiola couldn't help but marvel over there.

"When Kaka and Messi join forces, they are really unstoppable."

Yang Hao was convinced.

Just like the offensive cooperation just now.

Messi is characterized by excellent explosive power. Short-distance sprints and changes of speed and direction are extremely threatening, but the longer the distance, the less threatening it is.

And what about Kaka?

What he is best at is dribbling the ball in mid-to-long distances and making breakthroughs.

In the attack just now, Mascherano took the ball in his own half and handed it to Kaká.

Kaka was responsible for advancing and dribbling the ball from near his own 30-meter area to the 30-meter area in Lyon's half.

In this area, Messi has the biggest threat. After successfully receiving the pass from Kaká, he completed the handover and used his personal ability to break through with the ball and create an opportunity for Drogba.

As for the reason why Drogba did not hit the goal himself, but chose to cross the ball, he probably felt that Iniesta was in a better position and had greater confidence in scoring.

Although it was just a goal, what was reflected behind the scenes was that the cooperation between Kaka and Messi was becoming more and more skillful.

Especially the coordinated relay between the two superstars on the court makes it even more difficult for opponents to stop them.

It was never just a goal.

To a certain extent, Kaka carries the ball forward and then hands it to Messi, which will continue to happen in the future.

The strong alliance between the two superstars, coupled with the assistance of Robben, Evra, Alves, Drogba, Torres, Iniesta and others, will increase Atletico Madrid's offensive firepower. To a whole new level.

It even makes everyone in European football tremble with fear.

……

If the goal in the first half was not convincing enough, the second goal in the second half reflected this well.

It was Atletico Madrid's quick counterattack that switched from defense to attack. Kaka pushed the ball forward and handed it to Messi.

After the Argentinian dribbled the ball into the penalty area, he was fouled by Squillac and fell to the ground. The referee blew the whistle without hesitation and awarded a penalty kick.

This was an uncontested foul.

Squillac was sent off directly with a red card.

Because he was not only the last defensive player, but also committed a foul by pulling someone from behind when Messi had already broken through. This in itself represents a red card and is a tactical foul.

The Lyon central defender obviously knew this, so after receiving the red card, he turned around and left without arguing.

At this time, in the 58th minute.

Messi did not take the penalty kick, but asked Drogba to take the penalty.

The Ivorian scored in one fell swoop and scored another victory for Atletico Madrid, 2-0!

Two goals behind, Lyon put into a tight defensive posture.

Atletico Madrid also gave up as soon as it was good.

Both sides have qualified early, and Atletico Madrid also won the first place in the group early. There is really no need to continue to fight to the death.

In the end, Atletico Madrid defeated Lyon 2-0 in the away game and won their fifth consecutive group stage victory.

It is worth mentioning that Atletico Madrid's ball possession rate in this game was actually not particularly high.

In the first 60 minutes, the ball possession rate was only 63.4%, but the advantage held by the entire field made Lyon almost unable to resist, and even shot on goal once in the entire game.

Alan Perrin regretted losing to Atletico Madrid at the post-match press conference.

"We lost to the best team in the world!"

……

Returning to La Liga, we ushered in the 14th round.

Real Madrid defeated Racing Santander 3-1 at home.

Former Real Madrid player Munitis scored a goal for Racing Santander.

This is indeed an embarrassing thing.

Players who have played for Real Madrid often perform very well when they face Real Madrid again after leaving the Galacticos.

Barcelona defeated Espanyol 1-0 away from home and won the derby in the same city.

Atletico Madrid defeated Real Betis 2-0 away from home, with Torres and Kaka each scoring a goal.

Valencia defeated Athletic Bilbao 3-0 at home.

Villarreal was upset in the away game this round, losing to Valladolid 0-2.

The Yellow Submarine has a problem now. When they face strong teams, they often perform very well, but when they face teams that are not as strong as them, especially those teams that are very defensive, their methods are the opposite. not much.

For example, in this game against Valladolid, the two goals conceded were on counterattacks.

……

After 14 rounds of La Liga, Marca took the lead in revealing the list of winners of this year’s European Ballon d’Or.

Kaka won the 2007 European Ballon d'Or with an overwhelming advantage!

This is the third consecutive year that Kaka has won the Golden Globe Award!

On the morning of the 2nd, the Spanish media also took photos of Kaká and Messi, accompanied by Cerezo, Hill Jr., Carlos Leo and others, taking a private flight to Paris, France.

This actually exposes a relatively big problem at the European Golden Globe Awards, which is privacy.

Awards, whether it's the Ballon d'Or or World Footballer, are guessed by everyone in advance, so there's no big problem.

But if it is revealed in advance, it proves that there must be a problem in a certain link.

Especially in a model like French Football Magazine, confidentiality is simply not possible.

On the contrary, the industry already knew the results as early as November.

This time, even when Erno led the team to Madrid to take photos, no media reporters followed him.

Why?

Because everyone knows it.

What else is there to take pictures of?

But being announced in advance and not paying attention are actually two different things.

Restricted by the organizers of the Ballon d'Or, French Football Magazine does not have the financial resources and courage of FIFA to hold a vigorous awards ceremony, and they do not have so many awards to award.

This has led to the Golden Globe Awards becoming increasingly embarrassing.

Everyone left the suspense until December 12, which is more than two weeks later in Zurich.

If Kaka wins the World Player of the Year award again, he will make history.

Become the first Mr. Golden Ball in history to achieve three consecutive championships!

The biggest suspense for this Golden Globe Award is the top three candidates.

From the news revealed before, Kaká and Messi are definitely the top three. Is the remaining person Cristiano Ronaldo, Torres or Drogba?

In the end, in the final list announced by French Football Magazine, Kaká was elected the Ballon d'Or with an absolute advantage.

Messi follows closely behind.

Ranking third is Real Madrid’s Cristiano Ronaldo.

Torres and Drogba ranked 4th and 5th respectively.

This is somewhat disappointing.

Especially for Yang Hao.

He had talked about this matter with Ernault before, and the explanation given by French Football Magazine was that the splitting of votes between the two teammates was quite serious.

Judging from performance, Kaka is the least suspenseful, and Messi is also favored by everyone.

But the problem is that Kaka, Messi, Drogba and Torres are all Atletico Madrid players. This resulted in Kaka and Messi ranking in the top three with high votes. Drogba and Torres were affected. On the contrary, At a disadvantage.

Ronaldo relied on his advantage of concentrated votes to squeeze into the top three.

Yang Hao had no idea what to do with this explanation, and he was also skeptical.

He even felt that this was the intention to suppress the votes of Drogba and Torres during the selection of the European Ballon d'Or.

This can prevent Atletico Madrid from taking the top three spots in one go.

Operations like this are common in various selections.

Yang Hao was used to this.

There is no big problem for Ronaldo to enter the top three. After all, his performance in Real Madrid is obvious to all.

Besides, fans all over the world know how strong Real Madrid's star-making ability is.

This time Ronaldo is ranked 3rd, Ibrahimovic is ranked 7th, and Pirlo is ranked 8th.

This has led to a very interesting phenomenon. Among the top 10 players with Ballon d'Or votes, except for one Adriano, they are all from La Liga, and almost all of them are players from Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid, except Ronaldinho. .

This can actually tell the current trend of world football.

The two super giants have almost all the biggest stars.

There is news that Barcelona is still trying its best to compete for Arsenal's Cesc Fabregas.

Once Fabregas is signed, La Liga will have an overwhelming advantage in the top 20 of the Ballon d'Or.

Therefore, Marca wrote an article saying that this is not so much a ranking of votes for the Ballon d'Or, but rather a promotional release for La Liga to media and fans around the world.

The Golden Globe Awards used this list to tell the world how bright the stars in La Liga are!

The British Times couldn't help but exclaimed, believing that the Premier League has fallen far behind La Liga in this regard.

You know, in the past, although the Premier League was far ahead in terms of commercial developers, it was always inferior to La Liga in terms of European results and stars, and was even at a disadvantage.

But now?

With the rise of La Liga, as Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Barcelona compete for supremacy in the Spanish Super League, coupled with the rise of wealthy teams such as Valencia, La Liga has attracted astonishing talent from other European teams. the point.

Some leagues have even begun to respond to UEFA, feeling that La Liga's signings should be strictly restricted.

But how to limit it?

Atletico Madrid has always made few external signings, mostly young players.

In recent years, the biggest expense has been Neuer, but it turns out that even the German media itself is a bit disdainful. Instead, Yang Hao regards Neuer as a treasure.

Real Madrid and Barcelona are membership-based, and their revenue capabilities are indeed strong.

I've made money, signed and bought people, is there any problem?

The only trouble is Valencia.

However, La Liga also revealed that there was a financial audit within the league. After Valencia was acquired by the Abu Dhabi consortium, it signed a major chest advertising sponsorship such as Etihad Airways.

Coupled with several other major sponsorships, Valencia's current revenue has also increased significantly.

Although it currently looks inferior to traditional giant teams, the future is promising.

But this matter has indeed attracted a lot of attention in European football.

……

December 12th, the 4th round of the Champions League group stage.

Atletico Madrid hosts Steaua Bucharest.

Yang Hao played as a full substitute and rotation lineup.

In the first 8 minutes, Marcelo assisted Di Maria to score.

Before the end of the first half, Suarez made another victory and expanded the score to 2-0!

Although Steaua Bucharest scored a goal in the second half, Atletico Madrid ultimately defeated their opponent 2-1.

All fans had received the news before the game that Atletico Madrid would not arrange the main lineup to play in this game, but the Emirates Stadium was still full.

Because before this game, Kaka showed off the third Ballon d'Or he just won in Paris.

This caused loud cheers from all Atletico Madrid fans present.

As the first superstar to win the Ballon d'Or in the history of Atletico Madrid, Kaká has fulfilled the long-cherished wish of the fans of the Atletico Madrid team.

At that time, no one thought that Kaká’s dream of winning the Golden Ball would become bigger and bigger, and it has now been three years in a row.

What makes Atletico Madrid fans even more delighted is that Messi has begun to catch up from behind.

The 20-year-old Argentine has already reached second place in the Ballon d'Or and won the Silver Ball.

This makes all Atletico Madrid fans feel extremely proud and full of expectations for the future.

They don't even have any doubt that Messi's name will appear at the top of European football in the next few years.

This Argentinian player performed so well!

Not only Atletico Madrid fans rushed to tell each other, but even the Spanish media were singing praises for Kaká, Messi and Atletico Madrid.

Moreover, Atletico Madrid players such as Torres, Drogba and Iniesta have all reached the top ten.

This is enough for everyone to see the great strength of Atletico Madrid.

……

December 12, the 8th round of La Liga.

Real Madrid beat Athletic Bilbao 1-0 away thanks to Ibrahimovic's goal.

Barcelona defeated Deportivo La Coruna 2-1 thanks to goals from Ronaldinho and Xavi.

Atletico Madrid relied on Torres' goal to beat Getafe 1-0.

The top three players in the Western Premier League all won.

Valencia also defeated Osasuna away from home.

The 15th round of La Liga games has ended, and the league rankings have basically remained unchanged.

……

After playing 15 rounds of games, the Atletico Madrid team was ready to go to Asia RB.

Atletico Madrid still wears suits and leather shoes, and they come to RB as a team of male models.

Before even setting foot, it caused a strong earthquake among RB domestic fans.

Countless fans rushed to the airport to greet Atletico Madrid, especially Kaká, who had just won the Ballon d'Or, and Messi, who had won the Silver Ball.

Now Atletico Madrid is also consciously or unconsciously creating their personal image based on the characteristics of the players.

For example, Kaka is so handsome that he can be called a handsome young man. In addition, he plays football well. It can be said that he has the looks of an idol and the responsibility of a powerful person.

What about Messi?

The Argentinian youngster is known to be shy and low-key, similar to the boy next door, and he is also very lovable.

What's more, the way Messi plays on the court, the way he moves and the miraculous dribbling, simply makes female fans all over the world bow to his boots.

Torres represents responsibility and responsibility, Drogba represents a tough guy, Xavi Alonso represents calmness and wisdom, Iniesta represents all-around support, and Ramos represents passion and rebellion. …

All in all, the stars in the Atletico Madrid team can be said to have their own temperaments, and they are all different.

Needless to say, there are really different audiences and fans who like it.

As soon as the team arrived at RB, my dear, the fans were in a frenzy. They almost felt like they were going to rush up and tear them into pieces. They kept shouting and shouting.

Yang Hao was a little depressed.

Although I am a little older and not as innocent as boys like them, I still have good looks.

In your early thirties, that is the most manly time, why don’t you know how to appreciate it?

These idiots! Fan girl! Don't know the goods!

"I heard that your model is the most popular among the old RB mothers." Guardiola came over and said jokingly. Yang Hao squinted his eyes, looked at him, and asked with a smile: "Do you think you are very humorous?"

Guardiola, Juanma Lillo and others suddenly laughed.

"It feels really uncomfortable to see one of our players steal the limelight." Juanma Lillo further added insult to injury.

What else could Yang Hao say?

……

"The other three major leagues in Europe, especially Serie A and the Premier League, have strong opinions on us."

After arriving at RB's hotel, several Atletico Madrid executives made an appointment with Yang Hao and had a meeting together.

La Liga just held a closed-door meeting not long ago to summarize 2007 and look forward to 2008.

Because after the Christmas holiday, the auction of La Liga broadcast rights for the next three seasons will begin.

Now let alone Spain, the whole of Europe and even the world are watching this auction.

If La Liga is sold out, La Liga's position as the world's No. 1 league will be solid.

Especially looking at overseas markets.

Because everyone knows that it is difficult for La Liga's local market to compete with the Premier League.

In addition to these, another point is that the Russian consortium's acquisition of the Spanish company is currently progressing relatively smoothly, but the main contradiction is focused on the debt issue.

Both parties are still negotiating and are very sincere, and both parties probably want to complete the negotiations before the end of the year.

"What La Liga means is that it intends to make the original financial rules public and form a set of regulatory policies to further regulate the internal finances of La Liga teams." Cerezo analyzed.

"One of the items that has attracted more attention is called the lineup spending limit."

"What do you mean?" Xiao Hill was a little confused.

When Yang Hao heard this, he seemed to have returned to his previous life.

The so-called lineup expenditure limit also appeared in Yang Hao's previous life in La Liga. It is the salary cap that many people are familiar with.

But strictly speaking, that cannot be called a salary cap. It is a term passed over from the NBA.

La Liga's roster spending cap is much more complicated.

The core idea is to live within your means.

It’s how much money you make that determines how much money you spend.

Note that there is a sequence.

How much money do you have to earn before you can spend it?

La Liga will set up an economic supervision department to audit the current implementation of La Liga and La Liga teams.

Strictly speaking, this is an upgraded version of the financial audit proposed by Yang Hao before, which is normalized supervision.

UEFA's Financial Fair Play Act is relatively lagging behind, but Spain's audit focuses on prevention.

For example, every season, each club must submit your annual budget, and I will be responsible for the audit. I will then set a maximum spending limit for your lineup based on your income and expenditure, cash flow, debt repayment and other factors. .

This is also commonly known as the salary cap.

Finally, I made the salary cap public and asked all teams to supervise it.

The more complicated and difficult to understand points here are debt and transfer fee amortization.

I believe fans all understand the latter concept. Even when a club introduces players, it will be financially amortized.

For example, if it costs 1 million euros to sign a player, and I amortize it over 5 years, that is 2000 million euros per year.

The remaining 8000 million euros were previously ignored.

But now?

La Liga said, no, I also need to audit this and it must be included in the calculation.

Why should it be so strict?

Yang Hao actually understood in his heart.

It's like the Russian consortium wants to acquire the Spaniard. It's been half a year and it hasn't been completed yet. This is a bit outrageous.

Also, what kind of mess has La Liga been in the past few years?

There are 20 La Liga teams and 22 La Liga teams, and only two are debt-free, Atletico Madrid and Real Sociedad.

At the most outrageous time, even Real Sociedad was in debt.

There is only one Atletico Madrid left.

Atletico Madrid has almost been the benchmark for La Liga operations in recent years.

Hundreds of millions were spent to build a new stadium, and hundreds of millions more were spent to build real estate. As a result, Atletico Madrid's current financial situation is extremely healthy.

Everyone knows that if Atletico Madrid had not jumped out and repeatedly strongly suggested that the broadcast rights of La Liga should be packaged and auctioned, La Liga would not have such good days, and bankrupt teams would abound.

But even so?

There are still many, if not most, teams in La Liga that are deeply in debt trouble.

In this case, it is necessary to find a long-term, sustainable financial policy to regulate the debt problems of La Liga and La Liga teams.

In Yang Hao's previous life, La Liga established an economic supervision department in 2013, and it was even later that the salary cap was introduced.

But now?

Everything was advanced by Yang Hao.

When La Liga was reforming, La Liga began a financial audit and found a lot of problems.

Nowadays, on this basis, it is natural to further upgrade supervision.

This can further control the debt of La Liga clubs and allow all clubs to embark on a sustainable development path as much as possible, rather than like in the past, not even like Valencia now.

To put it bluntly, Valencia is very happy now, but what if one day the Abu Dhabi Consortium says it quits?

Of course, behind this kind of sovereign fund is the state. They value more using La Liga's platform to promote their country's image around the world, so they will not do this easily.

But what if other foreign capital comes in?

Yang Hao also heard Antonio Ponte talk about something before.

He feels that many people have a misunderstanding. They think that the stricter the supervision here, the more resistant foreign investment will be.

The fact is just the opposite.

The stricter and more formal the supervision, the more foreign investors actually like it.

Because they like rules, the more transparent, fair and standardized the better.

This way they have an accurate expectation.

So, this is why La Liga introduced a lineup spending cap.

According to La Liga, if the standard is exceeded, the club's actions in the next season will be restricted, and it may even be ordered to cut salaries or sell players.

Regarding this article, it is actually good for wealthy teams.

It's like a curse, strangling everyone's neck, but the revenue of wealthy teams, such as Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Barcelona, ​​has exceeded 3 million euros, so the salary cap will naturally rise accordingly.

As for the small and medium-sized teams, they are now counting on the distribution of broadcast rights from La Liga to survive, so naturally they dare not object.

Therefore, this policy was easily approved within La Liga.

It will be put into trial operation in January 2008 and officially implemented in July.

"From the current point of view, the financial situation still needs to continue to be rectified, and for Atletico Madrid, the next two or three years will be very critical. We need to try our best to increase our revenue."

"Spanish football has reached an agreement with Emirates Airlines and they will sponsor the Copa del Rey."

Yang Hao also heard the news, which can greatly enhance the appeal of the King's Cup.

At the very least, the prize money for winning the championship will be larger.

"Can we break 4 million this year?" Yang Hao asked with concern.

"It must be broken." Carlos Leo smiled,

"Our preliminary estimate is that commercial revenue will continue to increase significantly this year. It is expected to reach 4.5 million euros this year. Real Madrid currently seems to definitely exceed 4.5 million euros. Therefore, we should still be slightly behind Real Madrid. The difference will depend on the second half of the season. .”

Florentino is a genius. Without the interruption caused by Calderon in his previous life, Real Madrid's revenue is rising year by year, and it is increasing at a very fast speed.

At present, Real Madrid's superstar lineup is also full of appeal.

In fact, many fans still have a misunderstanding that the commercial value of a superstar to a team is not as big or fast as imagined, and the effect cannot be immediate.

For example, when Adriano won the Ballon d'Or and World Footballer for two consecutive years, Inter Milan's overall income, especially commercial income, did not increase that much.

The business income of Real Madrid and Barcelona has increased so rapidly in recent years. The most important thing is their wealthy background.

The most intuitive thing is the global brand image and fan recognition.

Atletico Madrid has improved very quickly in recent years, but it still needs some time. It is already very good like it is now.

In the next five years, Atletico Madrid will surpass Real Madrid in terms of global brand influence.

This is the strategy Yang Hao formulated for the team.

What Yang Hao relies on most is Kaká, Messi, Torres and other players.

In the next five years, they will continue to attack Atletico Madrid and at the same time bring a steady stream of commercial income to the team.

Even Atletico Madrid has greater potential in this regard.

"What do La Liga think about the broadcast rights auction?" Yang Hao asked with concern.

"It's good, but no one can tell until the last moment."

This is the suspense of the broadcast rights auction.

In Yang Hao's previous life, the Premier League did not lead La Liga in terms of stars and football.

But why is it so far ahead of La Liga and other leagues in terms of globalization?

After all, they are good at marketing and packaging.

And going one step further is winner takes all.

Fans don’t have that much money, and broadcasters don’t have that much money either.

If you buy the Premier League, don’t buy La Liga.

The domestic market of La Liga is not as big as the Premier League, which requires La Liga to restrict the Premier League in overseas markets.

Otherwise, in the next few years, the Premier League's overseas market will develop rapidly, foreign investment will pour in crazily, and it will soon make a comeback.

Therefore, this battle is crucial to La Liga.

"In the future, Atletico Madrid will have three main battlefields." Carlos Leo also talked about the marketing department's plan.

"According to industry research, the region with the highest viewership of football matches is currently Latin America. More than 7% of the population has the habit of regularly watching football matches, but correspondingly, the consumption power of this region is not high."

"Within countries, like Thailand, the national interest in football has reached 8%, but Thailand's consumption level is not very high."

"So, these areas need to be cultivated slowly."

"Next, we will focus on developing developed regions in the Middle East, North America and Asia-Pacific."

Atletico Madrid was the first team to enter the Middle East. The fans here are very passionate about football and have plenty of money in their pockets. Emirates is Atletico Madrid's main sponsor, so it is natural to take this place as the midpoint.

Needless to say, North America is the region with the richest sports market.

The developed regions of the Asia-Pacific are generally in East Asia and Australia.

Atletico Madrid's current influence in East Asia ranks first among many European giants.

Not to mention anything else, Atletico Madrid has visited RB and South Korea so many times in the past few years.

Yang Hao nodded, "I still said the same thing."

Everyone immediately looked over and stared at Yang Hao.

"Leave everything on the football field to me, and you can each show your talents!" Yang Hao encouraged with a smile.

While Atletico Madrid pays high salaries to its players, the salaries of these important employees of the club are also at the highest level in the industry.

There were other teams that wanted to poach players before, but they couldn't poach any of them.

The reason is that Atletico Madrid not only offers high salaries, but also allows them to work smoothly.

Just like Carlos Leo said.

Following Yang Hao, I always feel that I am stepping on the right node every step of the way!

That feeling makes them feel very magical.

But I can't tell why.

……

After Atletico Madrid arrived at RB, they rested for 3 days and then ushered in the first game of the Club World Cup.

Played against Urawa Reds in the semi-finals of the Club World Cup.

According to relevant FIFA regulations, Atletico Madrid played with its full lineup in this game.

It is said that it is the main force, but how is it actually possible?

Yang Hao signaled the players to come on the court and kick the ball leisurely, giving full play to their advantage in passing and controlling the ball, slipping away from the opponent and saving some energy.

In the end, Atletico Madrid defeated their opponent 1-0.

Kaka assists Messi to score the winning goal.

Even the RB fans present could see that Atletico Madrid, who had traveled thousands of miles to come here, deliberately conserved their strength.

Because the final of the Club World Cup is Boca Juniors from Argentina.

This is not a fuel-efficient lamp.

The current Boca Juniors team also has many famous players that Yang Hao is familiar with, such as Palermo, Palacio, and Banega.

……

12 month 16 day.

Club World Cup final, Atletico Madrid vs. Boca Juniors.

Many people are actually expecting Boca Juniors to cause some trouble for Atletico Madrid.

Just like they have caused problems for European teams in the past.

Yang Hao was actually a little worried.

Because he is not particularly familiar with this Boca Juniors team, especially a South American team.

Therefore, after the opening, Atletico Madrid adopted a relatively cautious attitude, instead of rushing into the game and playing offensive football like they did in La Liga or European football.

On the contrary, in the first ten minutes, Atletico Madrid still focused on possession of the ball, slowing down the pace, trying to adapt to the opponent, and first show the strength of Boca Juniors.

On the contrary, Boca Juniors, a South American team, was at a disadvantage and took the initiative from the start.

Atletico Madrid's two ace superstars, Kaká and Messi, are both very important to Boca Juniors.

But the two are now working together more and more tacitly, and they are relatively close to each other, often about 10 meters apart, and there are a lot of passes and exchanges.

In the 20th minute, it was Kaká who used his best long-distance dribbling attack, attracting four defensive players to surround him. In the crowd, he sent a precise pass through the gap.

Messi took the baton, dribbled the ball from the right into the penalty area, and hit the goal from 8 meters in front of the goal, opening the scoring for Atletico Madrid.

Once you score goals, other things will be easy to handle.

The competition has gradually become more open.

Boca Juniors began to press forward and attack, while Atletico Madrid figured out their opponent's confidence and no longer held back.

When the sheet army started to exert force, Boca Juniors was basically passively beaten.

But they do have a lot of small moves.

For example, Thiago Silva's face was hit directly by his elbow when he was defending Palacio, causing his nose to bleed. The referee had to stop the game temporarily.

These are relatively obvious, and there are other small actions.

South American teams have always been like this, with a lot of small tricks and thieves.

Seeing this situation, Atletico Madrid simply used the ball to pass and control the opponent first.

Until the end of the first half, Messi pressed forward and the opponent's defender Morel made a header error. After the Argentinian grabbed the ball, he broke through Morel and sent a kick from behind.

Kaka quickly penetrated the right side of the penalty area, caught up with Messi's pass, and knocked in front of the goal. Torres followed up and hit the shot, 2-0!

In the second half, the team changed sides and fought again.

Boca Juniors tried to launch another wave of attacks, but in the 51st minute, Atletico Madrid launched a quick counterattack.
