Super Marshal

"Calderon, tear-jerking, this is my home."

"He taught me how to grow, how to endure, how to live, how to face difficulties..."

"Regardless of rich or poor, we will always be number one."

"Hurray, Atletico Madrid!"

...

In the team singing of the famous Spanish singer Joaquin Sabinha specifically for Atletico Madrid’s 100th birthday, early on Saturday morning, Atletico Madrid fans across the city began their centennial* celebration.

Having survived the nightmare of the dark trough and the temper of relegation, Atletico Madrid fans have already let the world see their loyalty. They are the most loyal fans in Spain and even in Europe.

At twelve o'clock at noon, the Poseidon Square in the center of the city was full of people, and the celebration parade began here.

Without the high profile and extravagance of Real Madrid, without the brilliance of superstars, without the congratulations of political and business celebrities, Atletico Madrid’s centennial* celebration adheres to the team’s usual civilian and pragmatism.

But this is not to say that the club and the fans don't care.

On the contrary, everyone showed their sincerity to celebrate the 100th birthday of the team.

One is 1,500 meters long and 8.5 meters wide. It can be called the world’s largest team flag ever. At 12 o’clock at noon, it is slowly pulled along the main north-south roads of Madrid in Poseidon’s Square. open.

The total area is as high as 12,750 square meters, which is 750 square meters larger than the flag of the Argentine River Plate team that year, setting a new Guinness World Record.

More importantly, this flag was made up by all Atletico Madrid fans with their own money. It took several months to sew it by hand. They didn't even ask the club for even the slightest help.

More than 30,000 fans carried this flag, from Poseidon Square to Carlos V Square, to Pyramid Square, and finally arrived at the Calderon Stadium.

They wore neat Atletico Madrid jerseys and dyed every street they passed red and white. Regardless of men, women and children, they sang and sang Atletico Madrid’s team anthem, attracting more and more fans along the way.

Outside the gate of the Calderon Stadium, a cauldron was temporarily set up, and the chef fans have been busy here since early in the morning.

They are preparing a huge Spanish paella with Madrid characteristics for nearly 10,000 people.

This once again set a new Guinness World Record.

When the parade went around most of the Madrid city and finally came to the Calderon Stadium, there was no chaos in the whole process and everything went in an orderly manner, which reflected the quality of Atletico Madrid fans.

Yes, most Atletico Madrid fans are of civilian and middle-class origins, not as noble as Real Madrid fans, but when it comes to feelings for the club, the Sheets are not inferior.

Without sufficient funds, it has not been able to bombard and advertise on major TV stations for a long time like Real Madrid. Atletico Madrid can only broadcast an advertisement on a small local TV station in Madrid on the day of its 100th birthday. sheet.

There are no political and business celebrities, let alone the president of the United States, even the Spanish government officials, no one comes to Atletico Madrid's centennial* celebration, but Atletico Madrid fans do not feel inferior because of this.

"Our feelings for the club don't need these things!"

"Even the dog in my family is the same as me. He is only loyal to Atletico Madrid in this life!"

…………

…………

Gao Han stood on the second floor of the Calderon Stadium, looking at the crowd of celebrations from afar, and his mood was easily infected by the fans. He became excited and could not calm down for a long time.

"What a hard, poor, and respectable group of fans!"

Old Hill's voice sounded beside Gao Han, and he stood beside Gao Han with the support of Little Hill and Cerezo.

"Do you know? I'm scared all the time, I don't want to let them down, but if it wasn't for you, I'm afraid..."

At the end, Old Hill's voice was a little choked.

I don't know if people are getting old, their health is getting worse, and Old Hill is getting more and more emotional.

But he soon became strong again and let out a heavy breath.

"I hope that from today, everyone at Atletico Madrid can forget me and everyone, because no one can represent Atletico Madrid. I can't, neither can the players. Only the team... can do it."

Gao Han turned his head and looked at Old Hill in surprise.

He knows that after today, Old Hill will completely withdraw from the management and hand over the management of the team to Hill and Cerezo.

After two years of testing, the two have won the recognition and affirmation of Old Hill.

More importantly, they have found a development path that belongs to Atletico Madrid.

Old Hill was right. Since taking over the team in the 1980s, the Hill family has become a symbol of Atletico Madrid. When everyone talks about the sheet army, they will immediately think of Old Hill and the Hill family.

It's like when you mention Inter Milan, you can't help but think of Moratti.

But this is unhealthy. Atletico Madrid’s downgrade is the best proof!

Therefore, Jr. Hill and Cerezo resolutely de-labelled and played down the influence of the Hill family on the club.

From now on, the logo of Atletico Madrid will not be the Hill family, any player, nor the head coach Gao Han, but the team itself!

Gao Han knew in his heart that this was the best for Atletico Madrid, but he was somewhat lost in his heart.

But he is also a man who has honed in European football for two or three years, and he soon calmed down.

"Don't worry, as long as I am here, I will do my best to defend the spirit and dignity of Atletico Madrid. I will not let anyone, any team, ruin this great holiday today, I promise!"

Gao Han's promise made Hill and his sons and Cerezo very satisfied, and they all believed very much.

Because in the past two years or so, all of Gao Han's promises have finally become reality!

…………

…………

As the saying goes, there are unpredictable circumstances in the sky.

As night fell, there was drizzle in the sky.

But the atmosphere in the Calderon Stadium has not been affected in the slightest, and all the fans of the Linen Army are as enthusiastic as ever.

Especially when the La Liga championship trophy was sent to the Calderon Stadium, the atmosphere was even more intense.

This is the practice of La Liga.

As long as Atletico Madrid can beat Real Madrid in this game tonight, they can once again win the championship trophy at their home court.

But if you lose, then the award ceremony will be postponed to the next home court.

For all the fans who came to the scene, of course, they hope to witness the team win the cup. They even planned a fireworks show long ago to celebrate the team's championship.

"It's Florentino."

Gao Han looked in the direction pointed by Emery's right hand, and he saw Florentino taking Real Madrid's management to the Calderon Stadium in person. Hill and his son, Cerezo and others were welcoming him. Both sides looked. Woke up and talked happily.

This makes Gao Han feel a little weird. Everyone knows that what Old Hill hates most is Real Madrid.

Florentino came in person, this should be regarded as the most important guest in this derby, because he is not only the chairman of Real Madrid, but also the president of the largest construction group in Spain and Europe.

In addition to the chairman of Real Madrid, the chairman of Vallecano and Getafe also appeared on the VIP table.

The same Madrid team, they also congratulate Atletico Madrid's 100th birthday.

Although the atmosphere on the chairman's VIP seat seemed very harmonious, the atmosphere in the stadium was getting more and more tense.

Especially when the drizzle stopped, the two teams ended their pre-match warm-ups, and after returning to the locker room, a breath of solemnity wafted over the Calderon stadium.

The decisive battle is about to begin!

Although in the past two years, Atletico Madrid has won nine consecutive games against Real Madrid, but Real Madrid has also won in the past few months and performed quite well.

More importantly, this game is of great significance to Atletico Madrid.

Last season, Real Madrid was defeated by Atletico Madrid at their home court on their 100th birthday last season. The important reason is that the pressure on the players is too great. Now, why is Atletico Madrid not like this?

Moreover, after this game is over, there will be two Champions League semi-finals immediately. If you lose, then...

All the fans began to become uneasy.

Feeling the atmosphere in the venue, the guests on the chairman's VIP table also became nervous.

"Florentino, how are you preparing?"

Florentino, who was talking to Butragueno next to him, turned his head, saw the chairman of Getafe, and immediately nodded politely.

"Although I don't want to spoil the atmosphere of the celebration, we will not be a foil. All of us hope to continue the team's winning record over the past few months. This is very important to us."

This answer is very decent and has been affirmed by many people.

"However, Florentino, Gao Han dared to announce the starting list in advance. It must be full of confidence. Have you worked out any countermeasures?" Vallecano Chairman Teresa asked next to him.

Florentino still maintained his usual gentle smile, nodded and said: "We will continue to stick to our style of play. We all believe that Ronaldo will be able to break their goal."

The people around once again affirmed.

Ronaldo has been in a very good scoring condition recently, not only filling the vacancy of center Morientes, but also further enhancing Real Madrid's striker threat. The pairing with Raúl, Zidane and Figo also gives Real Madrid an offensive combination. It's a luxury, and it's arrogant in the world.

Such a superstar combination ~www.readwn.com~, as long as it exerts its strength, it can definitely break the goal of any team in the world.

Including Atletico Madrid!

Many of the guests around are footballers from the surrounding area of ​​Madrid, or media practitioners. They also heard the confidence of Real Madrid from Florentino’s words, plus Florentino before. Released ruthless words, can not beat Atletico Madrid, Bosque and Hierro have to leave.

With the weight and influence of the two in the locker room, are you afraid that Real Madrid will not do their best?

Thinking of this, many people shook their heads and sighed again.

Gao Han is young after all. In such an important game, the starting list was announced in advance. Isn't this kidding?

Let Real Madrid formulate a response strategy in advance, this is definitely looking for death.

Is he playing with fire**?

Or is it to release smoke bombs and suddenly change the starting lineup before the game? (To be continued.)
