The Calderon Stadium was packed.
One hour before the game, fans of the Sheets Army had basically entered the stadium and completely filled the stadium.
"Atletico Madrid! Advance to the Champions League!"
"Champions League! We are going to the Champions League!"
Various slogans and banners appeared in the stands.
The singing was already ringing before the game started, and it reached a small climax when the players from both sides came out to warm up.
In the commentary box.
Many commentators are sweating for Malaga.
In such a fanatical atmosphere, it is really a question whether Malaga can withstand it.
After the players from both sides finished warming up, the atmosphere at Calderon Stadium calmed down a little.
But everyone knows that this is just the home team fans continuing their strength, waiting for the real moment of breakthrough.
"This is our final!"
In the visiting team's locker room.
Pellegrini looked at the players and said.
This season is really not easy for Málaga. First, they lost consecutive games at the beginning of the season, and then they finally suppressed the main four rivals in the middle of the season, the yellow submarine Villarreal. Unexpectedly, Madrid at the end of the season Competition suddenly emerged, and suddenly there was a winning streak, catching up with Malaga.
So much so that Malaga's fourth place position is really not safe now.
The current situation is more complicated. Atletico Madrid's goal difference is three less than Malaga's, so if Atletico Madrid can win by more than two goals, the goal difference must be exceeded.
However, La Liga gives priority to the results of the two sides.
In the scene where Atletico Madrid wins by two goals, there are several situations. If the score is two to zero, or three to one, it is Atletico Madrid versus Malaga. If it is four to two or five to With a score of three, Malaga suppressed Atletico Madrid with the advantage of away goals.
"I know the media are calculating various possibilities, but for us, if we even need to calculate the mutual record and the goal difference to get fourth place, then it is almost the same as failure!" Legrini's voice became solemn, "We have an advantage in this game, but this advantage is not enough to ensure our qualification to enter the Champions League! We have worked hard all season to reach this final step, how can we be Give up all your advantages, focus! Focus! Focus!”
Pellegrini emphasized, pointing to his temple.
There's not much to say about tactics.
Playing away from home.
Another advantage of having two balls in hand.
Malaga is a team that focuses on defensive counterattacks.
So their tactic in this game is defensive counterattack.
Pellegrini didn't dare to mess around in such an important game.
Stability is still the main focus, not to mention that Atletico Madrid is also a team that mainly relies on defensive tactics. Even at their home court, if they have to press forward and play positional offense, then Atletico Madrid will probably do the same. Very awkward.
The main focus of Malaga in this game is defense and then counterattack.
With talents like Yello and Isco in the frontcourt, Malaga has the confidence to launch a sharp counterattack.
In the home team's locker room.
Simeone is giving his players a final pre-war mobilization.
Simeone found that he and Malaga were really destined.
His first match as head coach of Atletico Madrid was against Malaga.
In that game, Yeluo taught his team a good lesson.
Simeone felt the cruelty of La Liga from the beginning.
After that, Simeone relied on the players in his hands to gradually improve and establish Atletico Madrid's tactical system.
And achieved very good results in the second half of the season.
Atletico Madrid's "midfield strangulation + quick counterattack" tactical style makes them unique in La Liga. Now they have caught up to fifth place in the league standings and have a chance to break into the top four!
"There are two roads before us, one to the Champions League and one to the Europa League."
Simeone looked around at his players.
"Who doesn't want to play in the Champions League?"
The players sat upright and did not respond.
Simeone nodded slightly: "Very good, it seems that everyone understands the difference between the Champions League and the Europa League. So our goal is simple, defeat our opponents, reach the top four, and advance to the Champions League!"
"We have been preparing for this game for almost half a month. Fortunately, we can still retain hope in the last game before the end of the season. I look forward to this hope after the 90 minutes of the game. Bloom and bear fruit!"
"Everyone, I believe that you are all very skilled in tactical preparations, and the outcome of the game is not just based on the so-called tactics, but on you, your determination, your fighting spirit and execution, and of course, more The most important thing is momentum!! I ask you guys to firmly control the situation from the beginning of the game and overwhelm them with fierce momentum!"
Simeone clenched his fist and swung it out suddenly, as if this punch could knock down the enemy in front of him.
"Attack, crush them with attack!"
"Kill them!"
Players from Atletico Madrid stood up one after another to express their opinions and boost morale.
Both sides are well prepared.
As players from both sides filed out of the locker room, they met in the tunnel.
The countdown to the start of the game is about to begin!
In the players tunnel.
Yello stood at the front wearing the captain's armband. Next to him was Atletico Madrid's vice-captain Raul Garcia.
Both parties looked relatively relaxed.
There was no solemnity or tension as before the battle.
Ye Luo stood quietly, waiting to be led into the court by the referee team.
Suddenly, the little ball boy next to him raised his head and said in a sweet voice: "Ye, you are really good at scoring goals."
Ye Luo lowered his head and saw the little Lolita with blond hair and blue eyes looking at him expectantly.
He thought they were his fans.
So he smiled slightly and said, "Thank you."
"So, can I ask your son not to score a goal in this game?"
? ? ?
The smile on Ye Luo's face stiffened.
"why?"
"Because. Because I hope Atletico Madrid can enter the top four. We Atletico Madrid want to play in the Champions League."
"But if Atlético Madrid wants to play in the Champions League, you have to rely on your strength to play. If you need others to let you go, isn't that no different from cheating? Do you cheat in school?" Ye Luo laughed.
"No, no, no, Orisa has never cheated." The little loli shook her head like a rattle.
"That's right, you have to go all out on the football field." Ye Luo said.
Do you really need to go all out?
Little Orisa blinked.
"Of course, I can give you my jersey after the game. This is the jersey of the best player in the world!" Ye Luo laughed.
Little Orisa's eyes lit up, and she said with expectation: "Really? Then can you help me get David De Gea's jersey?"
Ye Luo's face stiffened.
"My jersey or De Gea's jersey, you can only choose one or the other!"
"This, then it belongs to David De Gea."
"Okay, when I win the game, I will help you change David De Gea's jersey."
"Great!"
Little Orisa suddenly laughed, jumping up and down, dragging Ye Luo towards the stadium.
"The players from both sides have already entered the stadium! In the last round of La Liga this season, the key battle for the fourth zone, Atletico Madrid's home game against Málaga is about to begin!"
As players from both sides lined up to enter the court.
The Calderon Stadium seemed to explode with a bang.
The stadium was so loud that the commentators in the commentary box had to hold their headsets in their hands and roar at the top of their lungs.
"Friends in the audience, the game is about to begin, both teams are playing their best!!"
Many Dragon Kingdom fans who were waiting in front of the TV, computer, and mobile phone screens were shocked when they heard this voice, and woke up from the early morning sleepiness.
All games in the final round of La Liga start at the same time.
Game time can be very difficult for Dragon Country fans.
It's already half past one in the morning in Dragon Kingdom time.
However, this game still attracted the attention of many Dragon Kingdom fans.
"This is a crucial game for the fourth place. Malaga is fourth in the standings, but if they win this game, they have a chance to move into third place. Atletico Madrid is three points behind Malaga and still has a chance to overtake. A chance for Málaga to finish fourth! This match is a final for both sides!"
"Let's first take a look at the starting lineups of both sides: Atletico Madrid still has a 442 system:"
"Goalkeeper De Gea, centre-back combination Godin and Domingos, left-back Luis Felipe, full-back Varela, the four midfielders are Thiago, Suarez, Raul Garcia, Ray Yes, the double forward combination is Atletico Madrid’s South American forward combination of Sergio Aguero and Diego Forlan!”
"And Malaga is still Amen's 4312 system. The goalkeeper is Asenjo, the central defender Demichelis partners with Ivan Gonzalez, the left back Rosario, the right back Gamez, and the midfielder Malaga sent out three defensive midfielders, Camacho, Fernando, and Juanito! The front three was Yello, Baptista, and Isco!"
"This is the most regular starting lineup for both sides in recent rounds of the league. Neither side has any reservations. This will be a battle between Mars and the Earth!"
As the commentators finished introducing the starters of both sides.
A series of rituals before the game also ended.
With the referee's whistle.
The game officially begins.
Atletico Madrid, who took the first kick off the game, was uncharacteristically aggressive at the beginning of the game.
The football was passed to the left wing immediately.
Left back Felipe Luis received the ball and went down to make a direct pass!
The football hit the feet of Malaga right back Gamez except for the bottom line.
"Corner kick, ten seconds into the game, Atletico Madrid got the first corner kick of the game!"
The commentators in the commentary box became excited.
They can all see that Atletico Madrid's offensive momentum is quite fierce!
Raul Garcia takes the corner kick!
"Later point!!"
to the exclamations of the commentators.
Diego Forlan grabbed the point from behind and headed the ball towards the goal!
Bang!
In a burst of breathing.
The football hit the crossbar and popped out of the bottom line!
"The crossbar!! Oh oh oh oh!! The crossbar denied Diego Forlan's goal!!"
"Atletico Madrid gave Malaga a blow at the beginning of the game!"
"This game is great! Atletico Madrid is not conservative at all! They have two first-class forwards!"
"Malaga may not be able to withstand Atletico Madrid's attack!"
In the commentary box.
The commentators all exclaimed.
Diego Forlan stood in the penalty area with his hands on his head, regretfully.
Simeone on the sidelines was so sorry that he almost knelt down.
Atletico Madrid fans at the Cardillo Stadium held their heads in their hands and stared at the football that was already dancing on the billboard.
I almost had the urge to go down and kick the damn football into the goal.
If this ball is scored, it will be a fantastic start.
Then Atletico Madrid's hope of overtaking Malaga in the standings is even greater!
I’m alive, I’ll update at normal times tomorrow
