I don't know if this news is good or bad for them.

"Barcelona 0-1 Atletico Madrid, eliminated with a total score of 1-2, and missed the Champions League!"

After the Real Madrid game ended, the players quickly got the news!

The news is also overwhelming, and all media are vying to report it. This is heavyweight news!

Barcelona, ​​as the two giants of La Liga and one of the greatest league giants, has always been on par with Real Madrid. Opponents like Atletico Madrid can only be regarded as a slightly stronger team in front of them, not to mention that Barcelona is in such a hot state this season, and The lineup is so luxurious!

Their draw with Atletico Madrid in the first round was shocking enough, but they didn't expect to lose the game 0-1 in the second round!

This is definitely an upset score!

Atletico Madrid advanced to the semi-finals with a difficult victory over Barcelona at their home stadium La Pennetta!

It can be seen that this Atletico Madrid team is also very competitive this season!

Barcelona, ​​which is at its peak, has become their defeated opponent. What kind of concept is this! ?

The Real Madrid players were very shocked, but Zidane acted relatively calmly.

This is not necessarily a blessing or a worry for Real Madrid.

Although Barcelona was sadly eliminated in the Champions League, it will be difficult for them to be dragged down in the next few league rounds.

Barcelona, ​​which was originally fighting on the third front, immediately became ready to attack La Liga.

So far, Barcelona still holds the initiative in the La Liga standings.

As long as they win all the subsequent games, the La Liga championship will still belong to Barcelona.

Zidane knows this.

After returning to Real Madrid's base, the players couldn't wait to go to the media and entertainment area to watch the replay of the game on TV.

Now that Atletico Madrid has advanced to the semi-finals of the Champions League, if Real Madrid wants to go on, they must know themselves and their enemies.

Although the two teams have already faced each other before, maybe Simeone will have some strange tricks left until the end.

In the case of a 1-1 draw in the first round, they and Barcelona will start a life-and-death battle in the second round. At this time, anything at the bottom of the box will be exposed.

That's what the players see.

In La Liga, they have to study Barcelona, ​​and in the European war, they have to understand every vitality of Atletico Madrid.

It is not difficult to see that from the beginning of the game, Barcelona took the absolute initiative on the field, controlled the ball very smoothly, and the frontcourt also continued to pose threats to Atletico Madrid's defense.

Several offensive opportunities almost resulted in a goal.

Atletico relied on physical collisions and tactical fouls to block Barcelona's South American trident.

Iniesta, the midfielder, also performed very well in this game. He could see and hear from all directions, and his passing and support seemed to be from God's perspective, which made Atletico Madrid almost unable to resist.

Atletico Madrid's tactical arrangement for this game is also very simple. They took the initiative to hand over possession of the ball. Isn't Barcelona good at controlling the ball and passing the ball?

No problem, I’ll pass it on to you!

The strategy adopted by Atletico Madrid in the first half of the game was full defense!

They didn't even think about counterattack. There was only Griezmann standing in the frontcourt in case of emergency, and everyone else defended within half court.

Barcelona likes to play positional warfare, so let's fight with you!

Atletico Madrid were very generous and handed possession to the opponent, which is what Barcelona wanted to see.

The ball kept passing between their feet, looking for opportunities to score in the gaps.

Their offense has always been pervasive, but for some reason today, facing Atletico Madrid's defensive players, their team lacked a breaking point and was unable to open up the situation.

Neymar was already injured due to the last game against Atletico Madrid. He was tackled by Godin during a shot, and his calf is still hurting.

Including the narrow 1-0 victory in the last round of the league, he had already shown that he was not adaptable.

Unexpectedly, Enrique still insisted on letting Neymar play.

None of their main players have been rotated and rested. In recent games, their physical load has been extremely serious.

They even need massage therapists to relax their muscles every day so that they can continue to play.

Not to mention Neymar, he is still dragging his injured leg!

Although Messi on the other side did not ask Enrique to replace him, he still discussed the matter with the coach.

Enrique's response was very firm: "You just need to do what the players should do. As for the adjustment and rotation of personnel, that is my job."

"If you want to enforce this right and complete my job, you must fire me first."

"Are you going to fire me, Messi?"

Although Messi is the absolute boss in the locker room, and everyone respects Messi ten times more than the head coach, Enrique's words are naturally not recognized by Messi.

In Messi's eyes, the team is more important than anything else.

So he had no choice but to agree to Enrique's arrangement.

In this game, Barcelona seems to have a luxurious lineup and sufficient condition, but in fact it is already at the end of its strength.

As soon as everyone came on stage, their faces looked a little tired.

Especially when the ball came to Neymar's feet, he was a little afraid to make moves. One reason was that he could not support it physically, and the other reason was that he was afraid that the opponent's players would be too fierce and kick him. If the two injuries occurred at the same time, then The pain and impact are profound.

Thanks to various reasons, halftime passed and Barcelona was still 0-0 Atletico Madrid. The fans were extremely anxious to watch.

Even many Barcelona fans started to comment below.

"Can you borrow Bai Ran from Real Madrid next door?"

"The offense is really constipated. Can it be smoother? Real Madrid's offense next door is so sharp. Every pass and shot is flowing smoothly. It's very comfortable to watch."

"Don't panic, why panic!? We can't lose. You can tell by looking at the situation on the field. Atletico Madrid can't hold its head up at all!"

"Also, there wasn't a single shot in the half, so what about kicking the ball? I don't understand."

Fans have different opinions, and the second half of the game is about to begin.

Although Barcelona's offensive momentum was fierce in the first half, it failed to achieve results. In the second half, their rhythm slowed down a lot.

These stars maintained their best form for 45 minutes to try, but failed to score. In the second half, their physical fitness could not sustain such a rhythm.

However, this situation plays into Simeone's hands!

In the second half, Atletico Madrid began to look for opportunities to launch a counterattack. Barcelona seemed to have been tapped. Their counterattacks were deadly, and Barcelona hit every one with accuracy!

Thanks to goalkeeper Bravo's high pass, he prevented several of their must-goals!

Counterattacks are always more efficient than positional battles. After all, they can create a situation where more people fight less. In the 69th minute of the game, Atletico Madrid's Torres sent a through pass assist, and Griezmann took a shot. Laver did not save the ball and it bounced into the net.

Atletico Madrid scored!

Leading Barcelona 1-0!

After that, Atletico Madrid no longer even needed a forward, and all 11 people on the field came to the penalty area to defend!

They already have an advantage. As long as they maintain it for dozens of minutes, they will definitely be the winner at the end of the game!

This gives Barcelona a huge headache!

Although we have to go all out to catch up with the score, we have no choice but to run out of energy and poor condition, not to mention that the opponent is an iron bucket among iron buckets!

Moreover, their defensive moves were also very big, which gave Barcelona a bit of a psychological shadow. They did not dare to force a breakthrough for fear of breaking their legs!

After 80 minutes, the Barcelona players were sweating profusely and were obviously starting to sweat.

Many stars are gasping for air on the court, holding their knees and looking very tired.

Messi is also dizzy. The main lineup for consecutive games, and the interval is so short, makes them a little unbearable.

Iniesta even played half the game and his legs cramped!

This usually only occurs in overtime, but today Barcelona had four people with leg cramps...

Neymar, Iniesta, Busquets, Suarez...

In the end, they could not even launch a complete attack. The referee's whistle blew and they lost the game with a score of 0-1 and were eliminated from the Champions League.

Barcelona were eliminated!

After the game, the fans unanimously criticized Enrique!

"Enrique is a piece of trash! Why on earth do you want the players to die if you take a break from the game!?"

"Look at how exhausted Neymar is. He has to die to finish it, right?"

"He doesn't know how to coach at all. I'm really getting more and more angry the more I watch."

"And do you understand tactics? You just pass the ball, control, control, control. Where is your efficiency?"

"What is strong is the ability of Barcelona players, not your passing and controlling of Enrique! Don't you understand yet!"

The fans hit the nail on the head. Barcelona's ball possession rate in this game was 78%, while Atletico Madrid only had 22%. This is a very scary set of data.

Barcelona took 26 shots, 8 of which were on target, without scoring any goals.

Atletico Madrid shot 5 times, all 5 shots were on target, and they also scored a point.

The efficiency can be seen by anyone with a discerning eye.

Enrique also expressed this at the post-match press conference.

"We tried our best and the players performed pretty well, but we were unlucky today and missed a lot of opportunities."

"No one wants to accept this result, but if it had happened, I think we would have had results in the Copa del Rey and La Liga."

"The opponent's defensive actions were very fierce. Our players had a tight schedule and did not get enough rest. This is normal. Lady luck is not on our side. I hope everything will go smoothly in the future."

Enrique's statement shocked the fans.

They can accept the team losing and being eliminated from the Champions League, but they can't accept Enrique's statement!

He seemed to blame everything on luck, and the loss in this game seemed to have nothing to do with him!

As everyone knows, in the hearts of the fans, he, Enrique, is the culprit!

After the game, Atletico Madrid's head coach Simeone also attended the press conference. As another La Liga team that advanced to the semi-finals, Atletico Madrid unexpectedly defeated Barcelona, ​​which surprised many people. middle.

Simeone's face was red and beaming, his tactics completely worked, what a joy it was.

"It went very well and our ambition allowed us to press, create chances and score a goal."

"We didn't even have a shot in the first half, which made our fans anxious, and of course me too."

"But then we proved that we are very dangerous."

"For a player like Griezmann who has the talent to score goals easily, we have to help him maintain his level. His movement opens up many possibilities in attack."

"Now that we have advanced to the semi-finals of the Champions League, I just hope that I can lead Atletico Madrid to the last laugh."

At the same time, all Champions League quarter-final matches have ended. After Atletico Madrid defeated Barcelona 1-0, the top four spots have also surfaced.

After Manchester City drew 2-2 with Paris in the first leg, they won the second leg 1-0 at home, eliminating Paris Saint-Germain and entering the semi-finals.

On the other side, Bayern Munich, a giant from the Bundesliga, also gained a 1-0 advantage at home in the first round, but struggled to hold on to this advantage in the away game, delaying the score to 2-2. They defeated Benfica with a total score of 3-2 and won. Tickets for the semi-finals arrived.

The top four have been announced, including Manchester City in the Premier League, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid in La Liga, and Bayern in the Bundesliga.

These four teams will draw lots and start fighting.

During the following period, La Liga President Tebas was also very excited. Two of the top four teams in this Champions League are from La Liga. What a great honor it is!

In the interview, Tebas said: "I am honored to see that in the semi-finals of this Champions League, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid have both reached this point."

"This proves the level and ability of La Liga. Our team has a tacit understanding, our players have the ability and our fans have the passion."

"Moreover, Atletico Madrid and Barcelona were drawn into a group to compete. In the end, Barcelona was unfortunately eliminated by Atletico Madrid. If the two teams can be staggered, I believe that among the current top four, all three teams will be It will come from La Liga.”

"I would like to congratulate all the players, coaches and staff of both teams."

"I hope you can perform well in the next games."

"In the exciting and fierce competition that takes place every day, we can see the style of La Liga players in the Champions League.

"Neymar, Messi, Griezmann, Ronaldo... they are all good."

"Of course, there is also the player who deserves special praise from me today, and that is Bai Ran from Real Madrid."

"A year ago, Bai Ran was still in the youth training camp of Castilla in Segunda B, but now he has grown into a world-famous superstar."

“What a legendary road this is!”

When it comes to the youth training of Spanish teams, the first thing most people think of is Barcelona's La Masia youth training camp, and they only know La Masia.

After this year's ups and downs, Bai Ran has become the new benchmark for Real Madrid's youth training.

This kind of influence is indeed enough for the chairman of La Liga to praise him personally.

He was even full of praise for Bai Ran!

"This is a great achievement. The name Bai Ran will be deeply remembered by people. It also allows us to bless Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid. I hope you can achieve good results!"

Although this speech was just a ceremony and an attitude of La Liga, all the players still felt excited after seeing the broadcast.

This proves that all their efforts can be rewarded, and the eyes of the world are focused on this. They are fighting for Real Madrid's ease!

On the training ground, Zidane called Bai Ran over during a break in training.

Bai Ran panted heavily and came to Zidane.

"Coach, you're looking for me."

Zidane nodded: "I have come to a conclusion on the issue I discussed with you last time and summarized it for you."

"Want to hear it?"

Bai Ran felt happy. This question had been bothering him for a long time. Of course he had to listen!

"good!"

Zidane turned and walked towards the base building: "Follow me."

Bai Ran followed immediately.

The two entered the base building, which is usually where the players come when they learn tactics. After entering the room, Zidane closed the door and asked Bai Ran to sit down.

But he pulled a white tactical board and wrote fonts on it.

"Last time you asked me, in classical football, the position of 'libero'."

"What's the difference between it and the 'B2B' midfielder in modern football?"

"We need to demonstrate this issue through examples."

"First of all, Beckenbauer."

Zidane said, writing a name on the whiteboard, with the following content enclosed in curly brackets.

"On a technical and tactical level, Beckenbauer has reached world-class status in every position except goalkeeper, and he has reached the top level in the world in terms of various ability standards of organizers on both offense and defense."

"This is also a major feature of free agent tactics, which requires extremely high personal abilities of the players!"

"Defensively, he can combine interception, anticipation, and tackling, and he also has his own defensive coordination ability. Whether he makes multiple rescues in the penalty area or takes the first shot outside the penalty area with centimeter accuracy, Beckenbau Er has achieved the most reasonable use of technology, with almost no mistakes.”

"The next thing is passing."

"Whether it's a long pass, whether it's a wide kick, or his unique short pass with the outside of his instep, he's outstanding. His skills in controlling the ball in the backcourt and breaking through total offense and total defense are world-class. You've already seen this. Somewhat close.”

"As a midfielder, his shooting ability is also top-notch. In addition to the famous long-distance runs in the World Cup, his long-range shooting is also top-notch."

He listed all these advantages.

"In addition, his skills at the feet are also very delicate. The combination of elegance, practicality and simplicity in his dribbling, his fake movements and the accuracy of conveying texture have all reached the most balanced height in history, which is particularly valuable. Yes, he also achieved rare elegance in the use of his body and the distribution of his physical strength.”

"However, in fact, the most important one of his abilities is his overall view and command ability!"

"His command has gone beyond the coordination of the 11-man lineup, and is more reflected in the subconscious choices made in the ever-changing handling of cross-positioning, offensive and defensive transformation, spatial rhythm, distribution and personal actions."
