Prominence in Football Community

Chapter 183 Whose side is the pressure?

The Champions League was eliminated, and the Copa del Rey was also eliminated. For Atletico Madrid fans, the only honor that can be counted on this season is the league championship.

Although not all Chinese fans are Atletico Madrid fans, they are also like Atletico Madrid fans in Spain, looking forward to Atletico Madrid winning the league championship, so that Gao Zheng will not be empty-handed this season.

Now everyone is talking about Atletico Madrid's ability to defend the league title.

Some people are more optimistic, others are more pessimistic, because Barcelona is indeed a very strong opponent.

If the final rival for the league title with Atletico Madrid is the rival Real Madrid in the same city, I am afraid everyone will be more optimistic.

After all, Atletico Madrid has the upper hand against Real Madrid this season-except for the Champions League, they have won all other competitions.

But against Barcelona, ​​Atletico Madrid's performance will not work.

In fact, the historical confrontation record between Atletico Madrid and Barcelona is indeed not good enough. Although it is not like the previous match against Real Madrid, the last time Real Madrid was beaten was a thing in the last century, but it is definitely more losses than losses.

In the last five seasons, they have only defeated Barcelona 1-0 at home in the Champions League last season, and they have not lost or tied at other times.

In the league, the last time they beat Barcelona was in the 2009-2010 season, when Atletico Madrid beat Barcelona 2:1 at home.

With Barcelona's performance this season, it is very difficult for Atletico Madrid to pull out their teeth.

In the thirty-fourth round, Barcelona was the first to play, and they played against Getafe at home. Facing the little brother from Madrid, Barcelona was unceremonious and fully demonstrated how powerful their attack power is. The MSN team scored a total of five goals. Messi and Suarez both scored twice. In addition, Xavi also scored a goal. .

In the end, Barcelona swept Getafe 6-0 at home and continued to lead the standings.

And according to the commentator, after they scored a penalty kick, they put the pressure on Atletico Madrid, who played the next day.

Atletico Madrid is away to challenge the "yellow submarine" Villarreal.

Villarreal currently ranks sixth in the league and has entered the European theater. If this ranking is maintained until the end of the league,

They will qualify for the Europa League next season.

Now Villarreal has 53 points, 13 points away from Sevilla, which is fifth in the league. It can be said that it is basically hopeless to compete for the top five in the league. Raja has a six-point advantage, which is not safe.

Therefore, in order to ensure the qualification for the Europa League next season, Villarreal should fight Atletico Madrid at home.

After all, to be able to enter the UEFA Cup next season, for a club like Villarreal, that is not a small fortune--the most important thing for mid-range teams is not the honor of the team that played in the European war. rather than economic factors.

The game between Atletico Madrid and Villarreal was indeed very difficult.

The stalemate between the two sides failed to score for seventy-four minutes.

Until the 74th minute, after Torres, who came on as a substitute for Griezmann, was blocked in the penalty area, Gao Zheng made a clever supplementary shot in front of the goal and sent the football into the goal of the yellow submarine.

With this goal, Atletico Madrid scored a victory and scored a valuable three points, continuing to maintain the pressure on Barcelona in the league standings.

When the next round of penalty kicks came, the pressure returned to Barcelona...

After thirty-four rounds, La Liga has entered the May schedule, which is the last month.

The last four league games will all be played this month.

At present, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid have the same points in the league standings, but Barcelona ranks first.

Atletico Madrid is second and Real Madrid is third.

This league ranking makes Real Madrid fans not very satisfied. After all, they have always been the duo of the Western Super League before, and now Real Madrid has dropped out of the team as one of them, changing from the duo to the third.

The ranking is only one place away, but the psychological gap is huge.

Fortunately, they still have the Champions League to make up for it. They are a bit similar to Atletico Madrid. After neither the league title nor the Copa del Rey, they can only bet on the Champions League.

In the Champions League semi-finals, their opponent is Juventus from Serie A.

This Serie A giants performed poorly in the Champions League last season and didn't even qualify for the group stage, but this season they reached the semi-finals in one go.

If Real Madrid can eliminate Juventus, then the Champions League final will be staged in the "Spanish national derby", or "European derby" - the final against Barcelona is the "Spanish national derby", and the final against Bayern Munich is the "European derby". ".

Of course, no matter which team it is, the defending champions in the Champions League may not be easy to deal with.

In the thirty-fifth round of the league, this time Barcelona played first. They kicked off at 3 o'clock in the afternoon on May 2. As a result, Barcelona, ​​who played away, slaughtered Cordoba, who was last in the league, 8:0.

The last time Atletico Madrid beat Cordoba the score was only 2:0.

In this 8:0 massacre, Suarez completed a hat-trick, Messi scored twice, Neymar, Rakitic, and Pique also scored.

After the game, Catalan football reporter Blanco immediately tweeted, and @高郑, his Twitter content is as follows:

"One game 6:0, one game 8:0, Barcelona is unstoppable! Anyone who tries to stop will be crushed by the wheel of history!"

Gao Zheng didn't reply to him, because half an hour later was the match between Atletico Madrid and Athletic Bilbao at home, so it was impossible for him to be checking Twitter with his mobile phone at this time.

But Danielle jumped out to defend Gao Zheng after seeing it, and replied: "So what? As long as Barcelona loses to us, it will be useless to win more goals before!"

Blanc obviously still remembers the fan who quarreled with him at the beginning - he is more vengeful, so he firmly remembers the Atletico Madrid fan who led Gao Zheng.

So he sneered: "You can say whatever you want, but first of all your team has to win Athletic Bilbao, that is not a team to deal with, I wish you luck! Luck, ha!"

The tone of the speech is full of gloating and watching the good show.

There are four rounds left in the league. Atletico Madrid's opponent Athletic Bilbao is currently ranked eighth. They have the same points as Malaga. In theory, it is still possible to compete for sixth in the league.

Moreover, Athletic Bilbao has always been known for its tenacious style. Even if it is a home game, Atletico Madrid may not be easy to play.

Blanco just expressed the thoughts of many people, and it is not considered that he is making up.

But it's not the same as everyone expected.

Atletico Madrid, who played at home, won the game 3:1 amidst the cheers of 50,000 Calderon fans.

It could have been 3:0, but in the last minute, Atletico Madrid's defense was obviously a little lax, and Athletic Bilbao stole a goal.

Although it is not a complete victory, in the process of competing for the championship with Barcelona, ​​three points are the most important.

Although Gao Zheng did not score a goal in this game, he sent two assists, which was also the main contributor to helping the team win the game.

As soon as the game was over, Daniela couldn't wait to leave a message under Blanco's Twitter: "GOL! Now the pressure is on Barcelona again. I wish you good luck, and you really need good luck!"

Blanco didn't respond to him.
