Chapter 213 Starting Lineup

Barcelona won the UEFA Super Cup, there was a wave of touting them in the media, and the media said that the pressure is now on Atletico Madrid's side.

In this regard, Gao Zheng expressed his inexplicable in an interview: "Why is the pressure on our side? This is not the league championship battle last season. What pressure do we have? Shouldn't it be Barcelona who should be under pressure? Because this game is at our home stadium, didn't they lose the league title here last season?"

Gao Zheng's remarks are simply sprinkling salt on Barcelona's wounds. Originally, Barcelona fans were upset because they lost the league championship last season, which led to the loss of the Triple Crown.

In the end, Gao Zheng still didn't open any pots, and insisted on taking Barcelona's loss of the league championship as an issue.

His words naturally aroused the disgust of many Barcelona fans. On the Internet, these Barcelona fans ran to Gao Zheng's Twitter to attack him.

Among them, Blanco was the happiest dancer.

Last season, he was slapped several times by Gao Zheng, but he didn't remember the lesson because of it, but kept it in his heart, wanting revenge.

Messi scored twice in the European Super Cup, which made him see the hope of revenge on Gao Zheng, so he once again published a post to talk about historical statistics: "...Barcelona has participated in a total of 20 Spanish Super Cups in history , Eleven of them won the championship. And Atletico Madrid? Participated in five times and only won the championship twice..."

His approach also drew a counterattack from the Madrid media: "Blanco, the reporter of "Daily Sport", said a lot of statistics, but what he didn't tell you is that Atletico Madrid won the Spanish Super Cup for the first time in history. , is beating Barcelona..."

Blanco immediately countered: "Why didn't I say this? It's because if I did, I'm afraid it would be more detrimental to Atletico Madrid. I planned to save some face for them out of my love and concern for Atletico Madrid. Thinking that the Madrid media blackmailed my own people more ruthlessly than me. Well, yes, I admit that Atletico Madrid won the first Spanish Super Cup by defeating Barcelona. But what the Madrid media did not tell you is that Atletico Madrid will Three times in the Spanish Super Cup against Barcelona and they... lost all of them. Look, Barcelona has an advantage over Atletico Madrid in every way..."

This historical data is indeed a slap in the face, so the war of words on the Madrid media side came to an abrupt end and did not continue.

Only some Atlético Madrid fans replied under Blanco's Twitter, using the results of last season's league championship as an example to prove that historical data is useless, and they will still overturn when it is time to overturn.

Blanco didn't care about it at all.

Luis Enrique frowned as he watched the schedule for this period of time.

The UEFA Super Cup was just finished on August 11th, the first round of the Spanish Super Cup will be on August 14th three days later, and the second round of the Spanish Super Cup will be on August 17th three days later.

Six days later, on August 23, Barcelona will usher in the first round of La Liga.

This schedule is too dense.

It stands to reason that he should rotate, but considering that the opponent in the Spanish Super Cup is Atletico Madrid, his decision on this rotation is somewhat difficult to determine.

If there is a rotation against Atletico Madrid, he is worried that he will lose the away game against Atletico Madrid.

But if there is no rotation, such an intensive game will also tire the team and increase the risk of player injury.

After much deliberation, Enrique finally made a decision, the rotation still needs to be rotated, but in a small range.

Especially to ensure that there is enough offensive firepower on the field, just in case.

With these circumstances in mind, Enrique made his starting lineup.

※※※

"...Before the start of the game, the two sides announced the starting lineup. It was a little surprising that Enrique did not play the whole main force in this game. Messi and Suarez started on the front line, while in the last European game Pedro, who came off the bench in the Super Cup, entered the starting lineup... In the midfielder Busquets is in his most familiar position, but in front of him, there is no Iniesta, and Iniesta sits in this game On the bench, Rakitic and Rafinha started. On the defensive line, Alves and Pique both started, but Pique's partner was not Mascherano, but Weir Mullen, Adriano was also replaced at left back... the goalkeeper is of course Ter Stegen..."

"Considering that we just played 120 minutes with Sevilla in the UEFA Super Cup, it is understandable for Barcelona to rotate. And in fact, whether the rotation or not does not affect the fighting spirit of the Barcelona players, because this is in the UEFA Super Cup. Playing away at Atletico Madrid, every Barcelona player will never forget how they lost the league title here last season. Now that there is such a chance for revenge, how can Barcelona give up? Besides, the rotation players want to fight for themselves in the new season With more chances to play, this game will naturally have to work harder, so maybe it will be better than going to the main team?"

"Atletico Madrid also announced their starting lineup. Gao Zheng appeared in the starting lineup without any suspense, and his partner is Griezmann. The four midfielders, from left to right, are Koke, Thiago and Gabi, Torres. Left back Felipe Luis, center backs Jimenez and Godin, right back Juanfran, goalkeeper Oblak. This is basically the main lineup of Atletico Madrid. Simeone has no rotation, Of course he doesn't need to rotate, this is their first official game of the new season..."

For these two starting lineups, everyone has their own interpretation, but the interpretation of these experts is meaningless, because the outcome of the final game does not depend on their interpretation.

When the players from both sides came out of the player channel, the TV broadcast turned the camera on Messi and Gao Zheng.

After last season, everyone has now begun to accept the fact that Gao Zheng is compared with Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.

Of course, whether Gao Zheng can really stand up to such a comparison remains to be seen.

But at least now everyone admits that Gao Zheng can be compared with Messi.

Although Gao Zheng's ultimate goal is to beat Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, to be on par with them now is already quite remarkable. After all, the other party is a world-class superstar who has been famous for a long time.

As for him, he was just on his way.
