Chapter 60 Christmas Is Coming

At the post-match press conference, Málaga coach Pellegrini seemed very low-key. He no longer had any words like "win" in his mouth, but kept praising Atletico Madrid's frontcourt.

"Our strength is a lot worse, and losing is inevitable."

"They played very well, the pace of the game was too fast, we had to passively defend the whole game..."

"Atletico Madrid's frontcourt is too good, Maurice, Costa, Ozil, after this game, I even think their frontcourt is better than Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid..."

"..."

Pellegrini left the venue after a few words. Perhaps he also knew that he was not the protagonist, and even said that the game was not the protagonist. What the media wanted to know was big news. In contrast, a strong team against a weak team Big wins are nothing.

Wan Sheng "lived up to expectations" and continued to talk about topics the media wanted to hear.

He didn't put a single word on the players who played well in the game, but on the players of arch-rivals Real Madrid.

The sixteenth round of Real Madrid and Atlético de Madrid is at the same time, Real Madrid's opponent is Deportivo Deportivo.

At the Bernabeu Stadium, the two teams staged a red and yellow card battle. The two sides received a total of 12 yellow cards and 2 red cards in the whole game. C-Ronaldo scored a wonderful goal from a zero angle in the second half, helping Real Madrid win this difficult victory 1-0.

When Atlético de Madrid and Málaga are over, so is Real Madrid and Deportivo.

Wan Sheng knew the final result, and then he had something to say at the press conference.

"I always thought Ronaldo was a genius, he was the only, best one on earth!"

"Real Madrid's victory depends on Ronaldo, otherwise Mourinho's team will not be so easy to win, Deportivo is not easy to deal with, they drew us at the Calderon Stadium in the last round, And Real Madrid won at the Bernabeu because they had Ronaldo and we didn't..."

"Nevertheless, we were able to win the Madrid derby because Mourinho's team couldn't beat my team..."

"But I think that any football coach in the world would like to have a talent like Ronaldo, and so do I. If he can choose to come to Calderon, I welcome it with both hands and am willing to pay enough for it... "

"..."

The media supporting Real Madrid felt very upset when they heard these words, because Wan Sheng almost shouted, "Ronaldo jump to Atlético Madrid!"

If this is what other coaches say, they will ignore it, but Wansheng is different. He has a great influence. Atletico Madrid, the team he coaches, has the ability to introduce C-Ronaldo.

That's the problem.

C-Ronaldo is unlikely to leave Real Madrid, but what if? If C-Ronaldo himself has plans to leave, it is possible for him to go to Atletico Madrid.

In addition, there is one thing that annoys them.

Wansheng did not mention Pepe after the game, and focused on C-Ronaldo. This does not mean that the young Chinese gave up Pepe, but that he thinks that introducing Pepe does not need to be said. In other words, Pepe is 'probably' already half Atlético de Madrid.

This alarmed Real Madrid's support media, and others thought they had found news worth writing about.

The reports after the game were predictable.

When the sixteenth round of La Liga ended, almost all the media in Spain were talking about what Wansheng said, talking about whether two Real Madrid players-Pepe and C-Ronaldo might switch to Atletico Madrid.

Of course, the two have to come out and discuss it separately.

The possibility of Pepe switching to Atlético de Madrid is very high. He was originally labeled as Wansheng's 'direct line'. When Wansheng came to Madrid and called him, Pepe was very happy when he had a chance to leave. may choose to leave.

C-Ronaldo is different.

C-Ronaldo's transfer to Real Madrid has nothing to do with Mourinho himself. To be honest, C-Ronaldo doesn't have a good impression of Mourinho and Wansheng. When he was in the Premier League , as a Manchester United player, he was not less ridiculed by these two.

Now Mourinho is the coach of Real Madrid, C-Ronaldo can only play under Mourinho.

No matter how the relationship between C-Ronaldo and Mourinho, in fact, in the Real Madrid team, his position is definitely the most stable, the club will not allow anyone to put C-Ronaldo on the bench.

C-Ronaldo is highly valued in Real Madrid and has performed well in La Liga and the Champions League.

But the key point is that in recent years, Real Madrid's performance in domestic and international arena has been unstable, and it is not easy for Real Madrid to win the league title this season. They have two opponents-Barcelona and Atletico Madrid.

If he can't win the championship, will C-Ronaldo consider leaving?

"Probably!"

Lirma, a famous Spanish football editor, gave the answer, "Any professional player will chase the championship, especially those successful professional players, they will never forget the championship. The championship brings not only team honor, but also personal honor. ."

"The reason why Pele is called the king of football is because he led Brazil to three World Cup championships, thus helping Brazil to permanently preserve the Remit Gold Cup. Pele is also the only player in football history to win the World Cup three times. ."

"Maradona is called the king because he led Argentina to the top of the world - twice."

"Some modern awards, such as Ballon d'Or, Footballer of the Year, various best players, etc., are also related to the honor of the team, which is why last year's Ballon d'Or belonged to Messi - Barcelona is unprecedented. The 'six crowns' and Real Madrid won nothing."

"If Real Madrid can't get back on their feet, not only Ronaldo, but their other stars will also want to leave, because they need more than just high wages..."

Lilma's article hits Real Madrid hard!

According to the grapevine, after reading the report, Real Madrid club president Florentino ripped the newspaper to shreds, and then he called Mourinho, and the two talked for a long time in the office.

"Perhaps the Portuguese made a lot of promises, but whether they can be fulfilled depends on the performance of the opponent..."

"Aspen" said sarcastically.

"Marca" believes that the current Real Madrid is the strongest team in history, although the arch-rival Barcelona is also very strong, but Barcelona's lead is only temporary, "By the end of the league, the championship will definitely belong to Real Madrid. Madrid."

As for Atletico Madrid?

The article didn't even mention it, as if there was no Atlético Madrid in the title contender, but everyone knew that Marca did it on purpose. hostile.

But that's okay.

Wan Sheng has read a lot of media reports, and he is quite satisfied. Most importantly, he has caused a lot of trouble for the Portuguese.

The opponent is in trouble, and he is happy to see it.

After the league with Málaga, there is no league before the winter break, but the team has not yet had time to relax, they still have a Copa del Rey to play, which is also the last game before Christmas.

Three days later, Atletico Madrid ushered in rival Espanyol.

From the fifth lap of the Spanish King’s Cup, the schedule has become two home and away games to decide the outcome. Atletico Madrid has drawn Espanyol, and they have to play a game in Calderon, and then go to the Espanyol’s home in January. The second round of the game, and then the total score of the two rounds to decide which team to advance to the next round.

Regardless of the format, Atletico Madrid is under no pressure.

The match between Atlético de Madrid and Espanyol in the 13th round of the league is still fresh in our minds. The game is also memorable for Espanyol. They lost seven goals in the whole game. By the end of the game, many players stopped running and even defended the goal. All seem very weak. The only thing to be happy about is that in the previous round, Almeria lost to Barcelona by 8 goals. They are not the tragic side of the game with the biggest score gap of the season.

Before the start of the game, Spaniard coach Pochettino seemed to be a lot more low-key, and many media remember Pochettino saying "We are not a team that can be easily defeated", and then the Spaniard lost seven goals, so Pochettino simply didn't say anything, just talked about the team's injury situation and some of the winter break.

The game between the two teams was also 'low-key'.

Compared with the last time the two teams played against each other, the Spaniards had a much tighter defense. Obviously, after having one experience, they were very vigilant about Atletico Madrid's offense and would not easily reveal too many flaws.

Atlético de Madrid still has a huge advantage on the field, but it is not so easy to break the Spaniard's goal.

The first goal of the game came in 49 minutes.

It was just the beginning of the second half, maybe the 15-minute half-time break made the Spaniards players too relaxed. When Ozil broke through to the penalty area line, they swarmed to block, and Maurice's position became empty.

Ozil seized the opportunity to push the ball out, followed by Ujfalusi and made a pass to the right, and Morris followed and shot directly!

The Spaniard goalkeeper Kameni was still calm. After he made an accurate judgment, he threw himself in the direction of the football.

But Kameni moved a little slower.

By the time he was in position, the football had already flown into the net!

"1 to 0!"

"Maurice helps Atlético Madrid take the lead!"

After Maurice scored, Atletico Madrid played more easily, but Espanyol's defense was also more solid. Except for striker Osvaldo, other players returned to the backcourt to participate in the defense. They all piled up in front of the goal, allowing Atlético de Madrid had no space to shoot.

Crowd tactics are undoubtedly the best defense.

Although Atlético de Madrid's frontcourt players are good, they still failed to break the Espanyol goal until the last minute of the game. 1-0 is no guarantee of victory, and the suspense is left to the next round.

This is the last game before Christmas.

After the game, Wansheng gathered all the players, said a few words of Christmas wishes, and warned them that they must not die on a woman's belly, and then said simply, "That's it, remember the meeting day, I don't want to See anyone running late!"

Everyone fled.

Wan Sheng also turned to leave, and before leaving, he only glanced at Isco. (To be continued ~^~)
