Chapter 322 A new record is born! The number one player in the history of Spanish football [big chapter with words, please beg to subscribe]

In the first game of 2009, Atletico Madrid visited Valencia's Mestagna Stadium.

The game is scheduled for noon.

Having just experienced a trip to the Middle East and the team's physical training, the players were not in very good condition.

The same goes for Valencia.

This resulted in both sides wanting a quick victory in the game.

After the opening, the Bat Legion took the lead in launching the offensive.

Villa first used a furious shot from the outside of the penalty area, forcing Neuer to make a save and save the ball from the bottom line.

One minute later, with Miguel's pass from the right, Villa grabbed the point in front of the goal and broke Atletico Madrid's goal.

1 is better than 0!

Messi, Torres and Kaka were not in particularly good condition in this game, and they were all closely monitored by Valencia.

Ancelotti is obviously very afraid of Atletico Madrid's superstars.

You can press the gourd to float the scoop.

On one side, the superstars were suppressed, but on the other side someone emerged.

Only 3 minutes after losing the ball, David Silva ejected a kick from the left side of the penalty area and hit the left post. After it bounced out, he chased after him and got ahead of Lucio with a header from close range. The ball hit the goal and tied the score.

1 is better than 1!

If it were an ordinary high ball, David Silva would not be able to steal Lucio no matter what.

But this time the shot bounced off the post and was not high. David Silva's height turned into an advantage.

Lucio was helpless about this.

The game was completely heated, and the two sides launched an offensive battle.

In the 18th minute, after Messi dribbled the ball past two people, he broke into the penalty area and passed a cross on the right side. Goalkeeper Cech attacked and failed to intercept. David Silva arrived in time from the back point and hit a shot from close range to score the score. beyond.

2 is better than 1!

David Silva scored twice!

But in the 34th minute, Aquilani sent a wonderful pass. When Sneijder received the ball in the penalty area, he was tripped by Ramos. The referee did not hesitate to award a penalty kick.

Villa personally made a hit and tied the score again, 2-2!

5 minutes later, Alves dribbled the ball forward to take away the ribs. After completing a one-two with Kaká, he broke into the right side of the penalty area and passed a cross. Torres in the middle failed to grab the point, and Ines outflanked him from behind. Ta scored with a low shot and exceeded the score again.

3 is better than 2!

Subsequently, the two sides entered a stalemate stage.

Until the 69th minute, Valencia launched a quick counterattack. Sneijder scored the ball. Nani quickly inserted behind him from the right, penetrated Atletico Madrid's defense, and sent a cross from the right side of the penalty area. Mata outflanked and sent the ball into Atletico Madrid's goal.

3 is better than 3!

After that, neither side could score again.

In the end, Atletico Madrid drew with Valencia 3-3 away from home.

……

17轮比赛踢完后，马竞以17战13胜3平1负位居西甲榜首。

But in this round, Barcelona defeated Real Mallorca 3-1 at home with goals from Henry, Robben and Cesc Fabregas.

Therefore, the points have reached 41 points, which is only one step away from Atletico Madrid's 42 points.

Real Madrid relied on Ronaldo's goal to beat Villarreal 1-0 at home, scoring 35 points, but still ranked fourth, behind Valencia's 4 points.

Yang Hao had to lament that La Liga is indeed too difficult now.

He still clearly remembers that in his previous life, in the 08/09 season, Guardiola's Barcelona drew 2 games and lost 1 in the first half, and ended up leading by 15 points or something.

Anyway, we are much ahead.

But now?

Although Atletico Madrid has drawn 3 games and lost 1 game, there is no lead at all.

After a hard-fought away draw with Valencia, Mourinho's Barcelona caught up again.

It sounds puzzling to say that Mourinho's team is really stable this season.

After all, the strength lies there.

Moreover, Mourinho's style of play is so vulgar.

His tactics can be summed up in one sentence: I defend my goal first, you attack, I steal the ball, and then I hit you to counterattack. With my personal ability as a midfielder and frontcourt player, I can't win twice at a time. If you don't succeed twice, try three times, and you can always succeed.

This guy not only plays like this on the road, but also plays like this at home.

Not to mention, he can often score a few goals for him, and there are even some big wins with 5 goals.

how to say?

A bit like the Real Madrid team coached by Mourinho in Yang Hao's previous life.

No, it should be called Real Madrid with enhanced midfield passing.

There is really nothing to say about the passing abilities of Fabregas and Xavi.

As for Atletico Madrid's game, Yang Hao also thought it was normal.

The stars are not in very good condition, but that's how wealthy teams are.

The east was not bright but the west was bright. Messi, Kaka and Torres were contained, and David Silva and Iniesta stepped up to score.

This is actually a good thing.

……

Three days later, Atletico Madrid challenged Sporting Gijon away in the Copa del Rey knockout round of 3.

The most intuitive expression can show how "realistic" the fans are.

Remember when Torres just won the Ballon d'Or and went to the away game against Sporting Gijon, right?

It was a lively place with huge crowds of people, and scalpers were selling tickets like crazy.

A month later, Atletico Madrid came to Gijon again. What was the result?

Because it is the King's Cup, and because the stars are not playing, the stadium with 3 people is only half full at most, let alone full.

Many of them came from Atletico Madrid.

A problem also reflects from this point, that is, the competition in the Copa del Rey is not fierce enough and the competition is not exciting enough.

Even to a certain extent, this is a useless event.

According to statistics from the Spanish Football Association, the number of fans watching the Copa del Rey home games of wealthy teams will be relatively larger, but the attendance rate will not be good, mainly because of the large capacity of the stadium.

If the attendance rate is really high, either there will be a strong dialogue, or it will be more exciting around the top four.

Nowadays, only the semi-finals and finals of the Copa del Rey live broadcasts can be sold at a better price.

Although the overall strength of La Liga has improved, the strong teams fighting on multiple fronts basically treat the Copa del Rey as useless.

For example, Atletico Madrid basically used substitute players and did not even use rotation players in the first few rounds.

A very important reason for this is that Atletico Madrid itself has considered it.

Give the simplest example.

The top 16, top 8 and semi-finals of the Copa del Rey are basically held in January and February, and are all two-leg matches.

If the team wants to fight hard, it will have to play 6 games.

Plus the national team match days in February.

This means that starting from the winter break, all games will be double matches a week.

Then there will be a problem. You have to work hard to fight for the King's Cup. Let's not talk about the great chance of the cup. The results cannot be guaranteed to be stable. Even if it is stable, you can fight hard and finally reach the finals.

and then?

What about the Champions League round of 2 knockout matches in mid-to-late February?

The state and physical fitness were all consumed in January and February. Then from the end of February to March and April, this period of time when the state and physical fitness are most needed, what should we use to compete in the league and the Champions League?

This is actually a question that all teams will consider.

The most important thing is that the final benefit from the hard work in the Copa del Rey is not as great as the benefit from winning a game in the Champions League and going one step further.

Although football cannot always consider profits and cannot be so realistic and calculating, there is still this most basic weighing of pros and cons, right?

Therefore, Real Madrid was simply eliminated in the fourth knockout round.

Barcelona was also almost eliminated, but Mourinho's team pushed forward and reached the top 16.

If you look carefully, you will find that it is often those teams that cannot play in the European competition that are most enthusiastic about the Copa del Rey.

It's also a cup win for them.

Teams such as Atletico Madrid, Barcelona, ​​and Real Madrid have similar strategies.

In the previous games, substitutes will be used to play. If the results are too poor and you are eliminated, then you will be eliminated.

If you get good results and advance all the way, then gradually increase your troops. If you can reach the semi-finals, then start paying attention to it.

This is different from La Liga's emphasis on the UEFA Cup.

In recent years, many teams have been saying that the Champions League and UEFA Cup will soon become the Spanish Cup.

If you win the semifinals at every turn, will the other teams still play?

To say that the Champions League is okay, after all, the benefits are so great and everyone pays attention to it.

But why does the UEFA Cup pay so much attention to it?

Just like Seville.

Whether in Yang Hao's previous life or now, they all attach great importance to the UEFA Cup. Why?

In Yang Hao's previous life, he once saw an interview with Sevilla. They really attached great importance to the UEFA Cup and later the Europa League. They really regarded this cup competition as the Champions League.

Because they can't play in the Champions League.

Sevilla's strategy is actually very shrewd. They know very well that they can't compete with the Spanish Super League duo (in their previous lives) in the league, and they can't compete with other teams in the Champions League. Even if they get upset occasionally, it's only occasionally.

Note that running a club is equivalent to running a business. No one is willing to risk everything for a small probability unless absolutely necessary.

Therefore, Sevilla's strategy is very clear. I strive to reach the top four in the league. It's okay if I can't make it. The bottom line is to maintain qualifications for the UEFA Cup and Europa League.

On this basis, we will further ensure the team’s performance in cup competitions, including the UEFA Cup, Europa League and Copa del Rey.

Through more championship honors, players can make a name for themselves, allowing players to get more opportunities to showcase themselves, and use this as a stepping stone to play for other wealthy teams.

It is true that there is no money to be made from playing in the cup itself, but after playing well in the cup, the increase in the player's value is what Sevilla values ​​most.

This is why Sevilla was always fighting for the cup in those years and forced the Europa League to become the Sevilla Cup.

Then many people are surprised, why can you fight if you say you fight?

Again, La Liga is backed by the entire Latin America and Africa regions, with abundant foreign aid talents, and La Liga's own youth training level is very high, and talents are constantly emerging.

Sevilla's wishful thinking has also been learned by many other La Liga teams, including Atletico Madrid in Yang Hao's previous life.

But now that Yang Hao is here, the situation is a little different and some changes have taken place.

For example now.

Why do La Liga teams value the UEFA Cup?

Compared with the current La Liga prize money, the prize money in this cup is actually not much at all.

The reason is actually very simple. In addition to what Sevilla said in his previous life, which is to increase the value of the players, the more important point is the visibility and attention in the global market!

Now this is the key!

No matter how tasteless the UEFA Cup is, it is still a European-level championship trophy.

Going out with a UEFA Cup, the gold content is obviously different in terms of attracting investment.

To put it bluntly, it is easier to fool those big financial groups or those companies that want to sponsor.

Take it directly, we have won so many European championship trophies in recent years.

what?

The UEFA Cup is not the Champions League?

Brother, I don’t understand this.

The UEFA Cup is not as good as the Champions League, but the third place in the Champions League group plays the UEFA Cup. Can you say that the UEFA Cup is inferior in gold content?

Besides, the honor of the UEFA Cup is still very attractive to many teams.

Through cup competitions, attracting more outstanding talents and attracting more commercial sponsorships, this is the way to survive for teams such as Sevilla, Villarreal, and Deportivo La Coruna in recent years.

Looking at their investment, it is actually not much.

Sevilla's net investment every year is very restrained, but their results are outstanding.

There are also super talents like Villarreal, not to mention Aguero, who is worth at least more than 6000 million euros as long as he is transferred. Just talk about Rossi. How much did he buy from Manchester United?

If you want to sell it now, it won’t be more than tenfold, right?

Don't underestimate this.

In Yang Hao's previous life, why didn't Premier League teams like playing in the Europa League?

At the end of the day, it’s a question of lineup size.

If we want to play in the Europa League, then we need to add more players to the lineup, right?

As I said before, the Premier League has a labor certificate, and the selection of talents is far less wide than that of La Liga. Player transfer fees and salaries are also high. This leads to the Premier League adding a few more players to the first team, and the transfer and salary costs are high. The ground rises.

Every year there are millions to tens of millions of pounds.

But how much is the Europa League revenue?

Not to mention anything else, in the years of Yang Hao's previous life, it was not uncommon for Premier League teams to play in the Europa League and be taught how to behave by La Liga teams, right?

In the final analysis, the Premier League wins at the level of marketing and packaging. In terms of pure football competition, they have not widened the gap with La Liga, and may even be worse than La Liga.

Under the combined effect of various factors, the Premier League really has no motivation to play in the Europa League.

As for the teams in Serie A, Bundesliga and Ligue 1...

Okay, just mix it up occasionally and make a splash of soy sauce, don’t put your hopes too high.

This is the reason why La Liga can win the Champions League and UEFA Cup.

In the world of professional football, fans are consumers, and of course they are qualified to make demands, want feelings, and love, but as a club operator, you must be pragmatic and steady.

The same principle holds true for domestic cup competitions.

For a team like Sporting Gijon, the benefits of competing with Atletico Madrid are huge.

But there is no need for Atletico Madrid to fight Sporting Gijon.

This is just like Yang Hao's previous life, when the beautiful country's powerful navy was able to dominate the world, but it couldn't handle the small local armed forces of a certain country in the Middle East.

Why?

A drone costs only 10,000 U.S. dollars, but a missile costs over a million U.S. dollars.

No matter how hard we fight this battle, it’s not worth it!

……

In the Copa del Rey game in Gijon, Atletico still played with a full substitute lineup.

In the first 9 minutes, Suarez scored a goal for Atletico Madrid.

In the 18th minute, it was the Uruguayan forward's goal that helped Atletico Madrid gain another victory.

Scored twice.

In the 36th minute, Modric scored the third goal for Atletico Madrid.

It wasn't until the end of the game that Sporting Gijon scored a goal from former Real Madrid striker Barral.

In the end, Atletico Madrid defeated Sporting Gijon 3-1 away from home.

……

January 1, Emirates Stadium, Madrid.

In the 18th round of La Liga, Atletico Madrid faced Athletic Bilbao at home.

As soon as the game started, Atletico Madrid took the initiative and pressed hard.

But in the 12th minute, Athletic Bilbao created the first threatening attack in the game.

Pepe and Thiago Silva failed to prevent offside, and Llorente reversed the offside to form a single shot.

But when the Basque Lion dribbled the ball into Atletico Madrid's penalty area, Neuer had already decisively abandoned the goal. Near the penalty spot, he made a perfectly timed fall to the ground to save Llorente. This one-shot ball.

This wonderful save earned Neuer a round of applause.

The German goalkeeper shouted loudly at Thiago Silva and Pepe, telling them to pay attention.

Yang Hao also applauded with the fans on the sidelines.

From joining last season to now, Neuer's performance has become more and more mature and stable.

"The save just now, from the timing of the attack, to the route of the attack, to the blocking position, to the prediction of Llorente's ball-holding route, was all just right and impeccable."

Goalkeeping coach Pedro Haro laughed and praised.

Of course he is happy.

Van der Sar was trained before, and Cech was trained later. Now it is Neuer's turn.

One person has trained three of the world's top goalkeepers. Pedro Haro is definitely an authority in the field of goalkeeper coaching in world football.

Speaking of which, Ferguson had mentioned Van der Sar to Yang Hao before.

At the beginning, Yang Hao promised that Van der Sar could be used for at least five years, but until now, Van der Sar is still on the old horse.

Neuer is getting better and better now, and Palop can only play in some Copa del Rey games.

The veteran is already 35 years old, but he is still in good condition.

There have been other La Liga teams poaching him before, but they have not poached him.

The main reason is that he has a very stable life at Atletico Madrid, and the salary package offered to him by Atletico Madrid is good.

Rather than going to another team, it would be better to stay at Atletico Madrid.

Yang Hao is not stupid. With Palop's condition and strength, there is no problem in being the main force in the middle and upper reaches of La Liga. Where can I find such a substitute goalkeeper?

Besides, is it so easy to find a backup goalkeeper these days?

Therefore, Yang Hao would rather give him a better salary and keep Palop.

Just 5 minutes after Neuer saved Llorente's single shot, Messi was dribbling the ball from the right and cutting in laterally. He was tackled to the ground by an Athletic Bilbao player on the right side of the front edge of the penalty area and won. A free kick in the frontcourt.

This time it was about 20 meters away from the goal.

After Messi took a deep breath, he took a run-up and sent a very tricky curve ball with his left foot. After crossing the wall, he got into the upper right corner of the goal. It was another absolute blind spot, 1-0!

In the 31st minute, Iniesta dribbled the ball into the left side of the penalty area and sent a very imaginative pass near the left penalty area line. Torres followed up in front of the goal and hit the goal with a header, 2-0!

Afterwards, the game began to reach a deadlock.

It wasn't until the second half that the sides changed sides and the battle resumed. In the 48th minute, Kaká made a wonderful pass. Iniesta's left-footed curved ball from the top of the arc hit the goal. He wanted to go to the left side, but it hit the left post. On the outside, it bounced off the bottom line. It's just a little bit different.

The strange thing is that in the 65th minute, Torres also received a pass from Alves from the right and pushed a shot from the center, which hit the crossbar.

This is the second center pillar.

In the 74th minute, Iniesta once again sent a wonderful pass. David Silva pushed the ball from a small angle on the edge of the penalty area, but it still hit the left post and bounced out of the baseline.

This is the third midwicket.

Compared with the previous two times, David Silva's shot angle was not wide and the center post was not wrong.

But in the 88th minute, Suarez, who replaced Torres, got a chance in the penalty area and hit the left post again when he kicked the goal.

The 4th time!

Yang Hao now had to suspect that tonight was really not a good day for Atletico Madrid.

One game, 4 hits, can you believe it?

In the 94th minute, Suarez dribbled the ball into the penalty area and his shot was saved by Ilesos.

In the end, Atletico Madrid defeated Athletic Bilbao 2-0 at home.

Yang Hao was a little depressed about the four hits in this game.

Otherwise, the score of this game should be 6-0!

But Yang Hao also knows in his heart that, as he said during the previous summer warm-up match, the most important thing is that the players' condition is a little worse and they have not yet fully adjusted.

Sometimes, if the physical condition is a little worse, the performance of the game will be much worse.

Hitting the post 4 times, it really feels like a bit of a hit!

……

The day after the 18th round of La Liga, Yang Hao took Torres, Kaká and Messi, as well as their relatives and girlfriends, and took a private plane to Switzerland, accompanied by Cerezo and Hill Jr. Zurich.

Their trip has only one purpose, to attend the FIFA Awards Ceremony.

This time Yang Hao received an invitation from FIFA President Sepp Blatter. Among the five candidates on the list, three were from Atletico Madrid. This was considered as giving enough face to Atletico Madrid. Of course, Yang Hao also had to give enough face. .

In addition, Spain also attaches great importance to this.

Since the establishment of the World Footballer of the Year in 1991, no Spanish player has ever won this honor.

The closest one was Raul who helped Real Madrid win the Champions League, but he only finished third.

But this time, Torres is extremely close to the World Footballer of the Year.

This made the Spanish media and fans extremely excited.

They all hope to see Atletico Madrid's golden boy completely break this record and become the first person in the history of Spanish football to win the World Footballer of the Year.

When Yang Hao, who was wearing a crisp Armani suit, walked out of the welcome car with Miriam Leone, who was wearing an elegant Armani evening dress, and appeared on the red carpet outside the Zurich Opera House, countless media at the scene were immediately stunned. Reporters and fans were surprised.

Especially the men's exclamations came from the surrounding crowd.

As fans on the Internet jokingly say: You can question Yang Hao's coaching ability, but please don't question his eye for picking a girlfriend!

Whether the appearance is beautiful or not, this is a matter for each flower to enter his own eyes.

There are still people who don't like Scarlett Johansson. There is really no unified standard for her appearance.

But when Yang Hao brings out his girlfriends, they are definitely in great shape and have a good temperament.

The most important thing is that they are all in their early 20s, which is definitely the age when women are most youthful and beautiful.

This is not the first time Yang Hao has come to attend the FIFA awards ceremony, so after taking photos on the red carpet, he took Miriam Leone into the Zurich Opera House.

Just after the New Year, Miriam Leone received a commercial endorsement. Armani invited her to be the spokesperson for their women's clothing brand, so she will wear an Armani evening dress tonight to accompany Yang Hao.

It is obvious that Armani made this decision because he valued tonight's occasion.

Tomorrow, the photos of the two appearing together will be spread all over the world, and she will become famous in one fell swoop.

As soon as Yang Hao and Miriam Leone entered the opera house, they immediately became the center of attention.

This Miss Italy in 08 is indeed beautiful and charming.

What's more important is that after Yang Hao dated her, there was a big commotion in Italian and European football circles.

Even the Italian media listed Yang Hao as the most unpopular person in Italy.

Why?

Because he stole the most beautiful woman in Italy!

It was even reported that many Serie A players said in interviews with the media that they would never play for Yang Hao's team.

This is purely a unilateral ban!

Yang Hao felt embarrassed for them.

It's as if Atletico Madrid really wants to buy them.

Precisely because of these tidbits of news, Yang Hao "offended" many people.

God knows how many?

After Yang Hao entered the venue, there were people coming around all the time, and he was extremely polite to greet the guests.

In fact, he rarely attends such occasions, but precisely because of this, he attracts more attention.

When the football emperor Beckenbauer was chatting with him, he "accused" him about this matter, saying that the entire world of football is now saying that Yang Hao is the most difficult guest to invite.

"How is that possible?" Yang Hao smiled modestly.

"Don't mention it, FIFA arranged the awards ceremony in January this time, maybe it just wants to accommodate your schedule."

Beckenbauer was good at dancing, very eloquent, and very smooth in doing things.

"Well, if you ask FIFA to set up a Coach of the Year Award, wouldn't I have to win it every year?" Yang Hao said with a smile.

Beckenbauer also burst out laughing.

FIFA President Sepp Blatter happened to come over, and the latter really thought he could give it a try.

"Then let's make an agreement first. You will come every year to either accept the award or present the award." Bratt felt like I was taking him seriously.

……

In fact, there are still relatively few FIFA awards, only 5.

Like many fans later, the Puskas Award for the best goal of the year has not yet been established.

The Most Improved Award was awarded to Palestine and the Fair Play Award was awarded to Armenia and Turkey.

The FIFA President's Award was given to the U.S. Women's Football Team.

The Miss Football World title was given to Brazilian female footballer Marta.

By the way, Yang Hao remembers the player Marta. He was still wondering if he could bring Marta to Atletico Madrid's women's football team?

But later, after he learned a little about women's football, he realized it was impossible.

Even though La Liga is famous, the Spanish Women's Football League and the Spanish Women's Football League are not very good and cannot attract people at all.

And when it came to the final grand prize, it was the football king Pele who took the stage to present the award.

He first took everyone to review the outstanding performances of the five candidates last season. When it came to Torres, there was a burst of applause.

Obviously, everyone knows that Torres winning the award is a high probability event.

However, when Pele personally shouted, "Fernando Torres", at that moment, everyone in the audience was excited.

A new record was born.

The first World Footballer in Spanish history!

In fact, speaking of it, in the history of Argentine football, no one has ever won the World Footballer.

When Maradona was at his peak, FIFA had not officially established the World Footballer award.

In the past 18 years, the closest Argentina has come to the World Footballer of the Year was Messi last year.

Further ahead is Batistuta in 99.

This year, Messi is still ranked second.

After ranking second for two consecutive years, Messi still has some regrets.

But after Torres won the award, he stood up, hugged Torres and congratulated him.

When Torres walked up to the podium and took the trophy from Pele, there was thunderous applause.

When delivering his speech, Torres said that 2008 was an outstanding year for Atletico Madrid.

"From a team perspective, we won La Liga and the Spanish Super Cup. I also represented Spain in the European Cup and won the championship. I scored many wonderful goals."

Torres thanked his teammates, the coaching staff and staff, and also Atletico Madrid's management.

"This has been an extraordinary experience for me, I am happy and proud of the team's achievements and I am very honored to be part of Atletico Madrid and Spanish history."

Torres said he was full of fighting spirit now and promised he would become even better.

"Here, I must also give special thanks to our head coach, Yang Hao."

With the introduction of Torres, the spotlight fell on Yang Hao.

The audience burst into warm applause once again.

"He is one of the most important people in my life. I have learned a lot from him. It is an honor for me to meet such an excellent head coach."

"Whether you are in the club or the national team, boss, you have always been the best in my mind!"

The audience burst into warm applause again.

……

Torres won the World Footballer of the Year and became a double player. This immediately triggered reports in European football and even the media.

Reuters immediately commented: The first person in Spanish football!

"Torres made history in Spanish football, he was the first Spanish player to win this honor."

"In the past few years, this award has been monopolized by South American players, especially Brazilian players, but now Torres has become the first player in Spanish history to win the World Footballer."

"He is also the first Mr. Double in Spanish history!"

"In this regard, Torres revealed in an interview that La Liga is becoming more prosperous day by day, and Spanish football is also becoming stronger day by day. His World Footballer is not only his, but also belongs to everyone in Spain. A fan’s.”

The Associated Press published a commentary article: Torres won the championship to everyone's expectation!

Comments said that after winning the European Ballon d'Or, Torres won the World Footballer, which is also what everyone expected.

"He is the first player in the history of Spain to win this award. His winning has brought countless fans to celebrate in the streets of Madrid and all major cities in Spain."

"This night, Torres not only belongs to Atletico Madrid, but also to Spain!"

Agence France-Presse commented with the title "Perfect 2008, Perfect Torres".

They looked back on the past 2008 and found that Atletico Madrid's performance had declined compared to before. For example, the Champions League stopped in the semi-finals and was eliminated by Mourinho's team. This made many people question it.

But then, Torres helped Spain win the European Cup, and Torres also continuously broke the record set by Platini, arousing heated discussions among fans around the world.

"It was almost a perfect year for Torres in 2008."

"For football fans around the world, Torres in 2008 was perfect."

In addition to news agencies, newspapers and media from various countries are also paying attention and reporting on it.

Spain, in particular, is reporting crazily on Torres.

This is the first person in the history of Spanish football!

……

Two days later, Atletico Madrid faced Sporting Gijon at home in the second leg of the Copa del Rey round of 2.

Before this game, Atletico Madrid held a brief appearance and celebration ceremony.

Because of this Ballon d'Or, this celebration, and this Copa del Rey game, Atletico Madrid's 76500 seats were all sold out, and it was even hard to get a ticket. This has to be said to be very surprising.

When Torres walked out of the stadium holding the World Footballer of the Year, there was thunderous applause.

More than 7 Atletico fans were cheering and singing for Torres.

Although Kaka has been playing for three consecutive years before, the weight of Torres is obviously different.

He is Spanish!

In the subsequent games, Atletico Madrid made some adjustments and finally defeated Sporting Gijon 2-1 at home.

Yang Hao arranged for several rotating players to play in the game, just not wanting Torres' celebration to be affected.

Although it is only Spain's first World Footballer to come to the Emirates Stadium, Yang Hao still has to be wary of those guys who are ready to disrupt the situation anytime and anywhere.

You can't let people ruin Atletico Madrid's good things, right?

……

Round 19 of La Liga.

Barcelona and Deportivo played a fierce battle at Camp Nou. In the end, Barcelona defeated Deportivo 4-3 and scored another big score.

In today's La Liga, there will be one or two big scores from time to time.

The game is indeed very beautiful to watch, there are many goals, the style of play is also very offensive, coupled with the fast pace, so La Liga is still very suitable for the taste of fans around the world.

Real Madrid lost 1 goal at home, then pulled 3 goals in a row, and finally reversed Osasuna 3-1.

Wenger's team has been getting better recently and their performance is also very good.

Valencia lost to Athletic Bilbao 2-3 away from home.

Atletico Madrid narrowly defeated Emery's Almeria 2-1 away from home.

……

In midweek, Atletico Madrid faced Sevilla at home in the first leg of the Copa del Rey quarter-finals.

In the first 5 minutes, Drogba opened the scoring for Atletico Madrid.

But in subsequent games, Atletico Madrid failed to score again.

Until the 53rd minute, Fabiano received a pass from Capel and equalized the score for Sevilla.

In the 69th minute, Adriano made another victory and reversed the score.

But in the 84th minute, Baraja scored a goal to equalize the score again.

In the 86th minute, Hazard dribbled the ball in the left rib, and after continuous breakthroughs, he kicked the ball in the penalty area and sealed the victory.

In the end, Atletico Madrid narrowly defeated Sevilla 3-2.

……

Over the weekend, the 20th round of La Liga.

Ruud van Nistelrooy's scoring record against Real Madrid came to an abrupt end in this round.

Real Madrid defeated Deportivo La Coruna 1-0 at home thanks to Ibrahimovic's goal.

Barcelona defeated Numancia 2-1 at home.

Atletico Madrid defeated Malaga 2-0 on the road.

Sevilla lost 0-2 at home to Racing Santander.

Juande Ramos played as a substitute in this game, which clearly means that he must retain his strength to play in the King's Cup next midday.

Yang Haoming knew this, but there was nothing he could do about it.

Now that the points in La Liga are so tight, he must focus on La Liga.

At the same time, we have to prepare for the next four months of competition.

……

In just 7 minutes, Ramos scored with a header for Atletico Madrid, opening the scoring.

But in the 35th minute, Rakitic assisted Kanoute to score, 1-1!

……

At the weekend, in the 21st round of La Liga, Atletico Madrid faced Valladolid at home.

Valladolid's defense only lasted 3 minutes.

No, strictly speaking, it's only 2 minutes and 54 seconds. .

A foul on Iniesta at the front of the penalty area gave Atletico Madrid a chance to take a free kick in the frontcourt, and Messi calmly took the penalty.

1 is better than 0!

In the 7th minute, Torres sent a direct pass. After Messi successfully countered offside, he dribbled the ball into the right side of the penalty area and passed the ball to the back point. Di Maria scored, 2-0!

Just 1 minute later, Messi broke through with the ball on the right, attracted the attention of the defense, and passed the ball to the goal. Torres made a header and hit the goal, 3-0!

In the 10th minute, with a diagonal pass from Kaká, Messi passed the defender, broke into the right side of the penalty area and hit the goal, expanding the score again, 4-0!

By this moment, everyone knew that this was another crazy massacre.

Atletico Madrid finally beat Valladolid 7-0 at home at the Emirates Stadium.

In the first half, they defeated Valladolid 5-0, and then scored two more goals in the second half, and finally won by 7 goals.

　The second chapter was not updated last night, I’m very sorry! I kept coughing and my throat felt like it was on fire. I took medicine and fell asleep. I didn’t get up until after 11 o’clock and finished coding this chapter. It was almost 3 o’clock in the morning when I uploaded it. I really can't stand it. If it doesn't work again today, I'm afraid I'll have to go to the hospital. Recently, there have been too many people in the hospital, there are no outpatient clinics, and the emergency department is overcrowded. You have to wait for a long time when you go there, which is really annoying. I definitely won’t be able to make up for it on Saturday. I’ll try my best to make it up on Sunday. I’ll check my physical condition for details. I hope everyone can understand! Thank you! !
