Remember【 】for a second, free reading of wonderful novels without pop-up windows!
After the results of the Champions League draw come out, the semi-finals of the Champions League are actually not far away.
In another week, on April 26 in the middle of next week, it will be the first leg of the Champions League semi-final.
This time Atletico Madrid is playing at home first and away.
From the perspective of the schedule, it is not very beneficial to them.
With the lessons learned from Barcelona, Atletico Madrid fans can hardly say that they will end the suspense of the game in the first round.
At the beginning, Barcelona defeated Atletico Madrid 3:0 at home. In the eyes of many people, didn't it end the suspense of the game? The results of it?
So no matter how Atlético Madrid played in the first round, going to the away game in the second round is very important, and we must not take it lightly.
Before this Champions League game, there are two more league matches, which will be played within a week.
Prior to this, Atletico Madrid had just finished two Champions League quarter-finals and the league. This period of time was completely a week of double matches.
It is also a great test for the physical fitness of the players.
But the only good news is that Barcelona lost the chain in the previous league, and the pressure on Atletico Madrid is not so great.
The Atlético Madrid players don't have to feel that sense of urgency, they can take a little breather.
※※※
The thirty-third round of the league was played on April 17. Three days later, on April 20, Atlético de Madrid will go to an away game against Athletic Bilbao.
And this can be said to be the strongest of all the remaining opponents in Atletico Madrid's league.
If Barcelona are going to expect Atletico Madrid to make mistakes and then catch up, then this is the best chance.
If Athletic Bilbao can't stop Atletico Madrid, then Barcelona's championship dream is really in danger.
Athletic Bilbao is a wonderful flower in world football.
What's weird about them is their regulations on employing people.
Athletic Bilbao is located in the Basque Country in northwestern Spain.
Subordinate to the Basque Country, this region includes the Basque Country in Spain, the Autonomous Community of Novara and the Northern Basque Country in France.
The Basques have their own language, which is different from the official language of Spain. In history, the Basques have always had a very strong national consciousness. Although they are surrounded by powerful enemies, they have repeatedly resisted the invasion of foreign enemies. The town of Guernica in the famous painting "Guernica" created by Picasso based on Japanese air raids during World War II is located in Basque Country.
After the death of Spanish dictator Franco, the Basque Country took a tough line with the Spanish government over the division of autonomy and did not budge.
These measures have continued the local people's strong sense of regional cultural identity.
It is also based on this that the Athletic Bilbao Football Club, which was born in Bilbao, the largest city in the Basque Country, also has its own strong regional cultural traditions-they were born in the Basque Country or were born in the teenagers at the place of absorption. A player who moved to the Basque country and started playing here.
However, this strange rule has been gradually loosened in recent years. It only requires players to have Basque blood, and it is not necessary to live or play in the Basque region.
This is because their selection range is limited to the Basque Country, which is too narrow, and the players here are too limited to support the development of this team.
However, because of this particularly strong sense of regional cultural identity, Athletic Bilbao's combat effectiveness is very strong. Maybe they are limited by the selection of players, and the strength of the players is not the strongest, but the fighting spirit and will are unparalleled.
Especially their home stadium, San Mames Stadium, is the home of the devil for many La Liga teams.
Even giants like Real Madrid and Barcelona will capsize if they don't go all out to play here.
And this round of Atletico Madrid happens to be playing Athletic Bilbao away.
Barcelona fans hope that the Basques of Athletic Bilbao can give full play to their heroic spirit, follow the example of their predecessors who resisted the invasion of foreign enemies, and continue the Basque Autonomous Region’s tradition of resisting the infiltration of the Spanish Castilian monarchy. At the Mames Stadium, beat the Atletico team from Madrid and tell them who is the real "Athletic team"-both teams are named "Athletic", but one has "Bilba" behind it. E", the suffix of one is "Madrid".
The regional color is very strong.
※※※
In this round of the league, Barcelona will play first, but their game is 45 minutes earlier than Atletico Madrid and Athletic Bilbao, so it is a pity that they can't play the game and then take the "Walking Mountains and Watching Tigers" "The mood to watch this game.
The Barcelona players don't even bother to care about Atletico Madrid, they have to play their own game well first.
After all, they are also an away game, away to Deportivo.
However, Barcelona fans can focus on two tasks, watching Barcelona's game while paying attention to the latest situation of Atletico Madrid's game.
Perhaps because of being stimulated by Enrique's words in the post-match press conference, the Barcelona players wanted to prove that the two-line defeat in the league and the Champions League was not their responsibility, but the responsibility of the head coach.
At the beginning of this game, all Barcelona players were very positive, and they could not see the shadow of the poor performance of the first two games at all.
In the 11th minute of the opening, Suarez opened the scoring for the team.
In the 24th minute, he scored twice, rewriting the score to 2:0.
At the end of the first half, Barcelona led Deportivo 2-0 away.
Judging from the performance of both sides, the outcome of this game has lost its suspense. It is difficult for Deportivo, who is ranked 13th this season, to compete head-on with the fully fired Barcelona, even at their own home court.
While the whistle sounded at the end of the first half, at the San Mames Stadium, the opening whistle was also blown for Athletic Bilbao's home game against Atletico Madrid.
Athletic Bilbao also has the strongest lineup in this game, and it is obvious that they want to win Atletico Madrid at home.
They are fifth with 54 points before this game, while Villarreal are fourth with 60 points, six ahead of them.
Although there is only one difference between the fourth place and the fifth place, it is indeed a watershed between the two worlds-the fourth place can participate in the Champions League, and the fifth place can only participate in the Europa League.
If you can participate in the Champions League, who would give up this opportunity?
Villarreal lost 1:2 to Vallecano in the last round of the away game. Although they have not played this round of the league game, they challenged Real Madrid away. If nothing else, Villarreal Nine out of ten times Yar would lose.
While Villarreal lost, if Athletic Bilbao can win Atletico Madrid at home, will the point difference between the two sides be reduced to three points?
In this way, Athletic Bilbao's chances of participating in the Champions League next season will be greatly improved.
It is precisely because of this that Barcelona fans pin their hopes on them.
If at this time Athletic Bilbao has no hope of qualifying for the Champions League, no worries about relegation, and no desires, Barcelona fans will definitely not dare to dream of letting them beat Atletico Madrid.
