Chapter 191 Profits of Broadcasters
Chinese media also pay close attention to the Champions League. In the hearts of Chinese media and fans, the Champions League's status is supreme and second only to the World Cup.
Chinese fans are also paying attention to Atletico Madrid's performance in the UEFA Champions League.
The Spanish Super Cup craze has just passed in mid-August. Central TV bought the broadcast rights of Atletico Madrid's home court, which is a heavyweight news even in Europe, so it was naturally reported by many media. Chinese fans are happy to see the home game of Atletico Madrid in La Liga, and are more looking forward to Atletico Madrid's Champions League.
Wan Sheng led Atletico Madrid to defeat Bayern Munich 2-0, which made Chinese fans very happy.
In view of promoting the development of Chinese football, the Central TV News Channel also played a short 15-second screen to report Atletico Madrid's victory. In the eyes of many fans, this is not only a victory for Atletico Madrid club in Spain, but also a step forward for Chinese football, because Atletico Madrid is led by the Chinese. In the environment where Chinese football disappoints fans to the end, as long as there is a positive news related to Chinese football, Chinese media will not be stingy with reports and praise.
Because of the short report from the Central TV News Channel, Falcao became a star player of Atletico Madrid in China.
It is too difficult for any player, or any star to show his face on the Central TV News Channel. Unless it is the Spring Festival Gala every year or the Chinese team participates in the Olympics, it is difficult to see the news channel report on celebrities, stars, etc. Because the achievements of Chinese football are disappointing, it is even more impossible for those football players to appear on the news channel.
Under various factors, Falcao did it, and he scored two goals in the match against Bayern Munich. Therefore, in the news channel, Falcao became the most noticeable person, and a close-up was given to Falcao in the picture.
"This is Atletico Madrid's best striker!"
Before, many fans thought of Atletico Madrid, the first one they thought of was Ozil and Morris. Now many fans can think of Falcao.
Falcao himself would be surprised because he scored two goals in one game, and he had a higher support in China than in Spain and Madrid.
Among various media reports, Atletico Madrid ushered in the fourth round of the league and the third game of the season - Calderon Stadium to face Atletico Santander.
Santander Athletic completed the relegation mission ahead of schedule last season and finally ranked 13th in the league, but compared with the relegation zone, the team was only 3 points higher.
The reason why Santander was able to relegate ahead of schedule last season was because Giovani Dos Santos, who joined in the winter, was that Ronaldo II performed very well at the Sardines Stadium. However, most of them had already ended loan with Rosenberg and returned to their old club. The old captain Pinilios, center back Enrique and center Borado also left the team.
In terms of personnel introduction, Santander rented Axta and Stuyani. The former has never been able to find any feeling in Sevilla, while the latter performed well when he played for Levante last season.
In the summer, Santander Athletic invited famous coach Hector Cooper, an experienced Argentine coach who has coached Valencia and Inter Milan, and the tactical system he represents is defensive counterattack.
Spanish media believe that "Cooper's arrival will make Santander Athletics firmly follow the defensive counterattack path, which is also the most suitable tactical system for the team's strength."
"Sports in Santander has always been one of the toughest teams in La Liga, and Cooper will make the team even more tough."
But no matter what, Atletico Santander is just a team that strives to relegate, not Atletico Madrid's opponent, especially away games. Spanish media generally have no objection to the result.
Considering that he flew to Naples, Italy to participate in the second game of the Champions League group stage at the end of the month and the subsequent battle with Barcelona, Wan Sheng decided to let the players rotate and rest in the last two games. Most of the players who played against Santander were substitutes.
In the end, Atletico Madrid defeated Atletico Santander 1-0 at home.
Atletico Madrid won some luck, and the only goal came from full-back Felipe Kasmirski. In the 67th minute, Kasmirski made an assist and helped Atletico Madrid take the lead with a shot that seemed like a cross. There was only this only "luck balloon" in the game, but victory was victory. Even if it was a narrow victory, Atletico Madrid successfully scored three points. With this game, Atletico Madrid made it to second place in the league with one less game, second only to Real Betis, who won four games.
In the first four rounds of the league, Real Betis's results were indeed good. Although they only won one goal in each game, they defeated Zaragoza 4-3 at home in the past game, but they all won in the end. Many Spanish media also praised Real Betis for his outstanding performance.
On the contrary, Real Madrid and Barcelona did not win all three games.
In the fourth round just past, Real Madrid was unpopular and lost 0-1 away to Levante. Last season, Real Madrid was depressedly tied at Levante's home court, and suffered its first defeat here this season. Mourinho's mood at the press conference after the game can be imagined. He first pointed his finger at the referee and his opponent, "The opponent's handball in the penalty area, this obvious penalty referee did not award, Ebola should get the second yellow card, and the referee obviously affected the result of today's game.
If Real Madrid gets a penalty and the opponent sends another person, and both sides play 10 and 10, history will be completely rewritten. Of course, we cannot belittle Levante. They know what to do at home and do well. I want to congratulate them on their players knowing how to create conflicts, fake falls and waste time, and don't give us the ball after fouls. These are footballs, our players will not feel comfortable in such an environment. In La Liga, no one can play these tricks than Levante."
During the game, Khedira received a red card and was sent off. Mourinho accused Real Madrid players of not being calm and sophisticated enough and fell into a trap set by the opponent. "Some Real Madrid players can play well in that kind of good stadium, but when they come here, they are not used to this dirty football. One of them (Khedira) made a mistake because he knew what consequences would bring to do so. He fell into the opponent's trap and took part of the responsibility for the loss of the game. Of course, the referee also has an unshirkable responsibility. He did not
We were given a penalty kick, and we didn't send off the opponent's players. In addition, we also had to find the reasons from ourselves. Both the players and I were responsible. We were prepared before the game and expected the referee factor. I guess there would be no situation in which Real Madrid players were sent off during the game, but the result still happened. This is not what we want to see. I think players should be smarter and avoid this situation, regardless of whether they obey the referee or not. So I want to congratulate Levante on Real Madrid on this day, and the referee was awful."
C-Ronaldo did not have any of this game. Mourinho explained, "At 2:00 pm, Ronaldo told me that from yesterday to today, he didn't feel very good, and he was injured before. Although he wanted to help the team, he was not in the best state, so I didn't send him." Then he talked about Kaka again, "When he was playing 11 and 11, his performance was the best in Real Madrid. But I usually only evaluate the overall and don't want to deliberately evaluate a certain player."
"Before being sent off, Real Madrid played well. Levante couldn't pass the half. Cassi didn't touch the ball a few times. We had many good opportunities, two were empty goals, and one was a goal that was easy to score 4 meters in front of the goal, but none of them were converted into goals. Of course, the turf on the court was also very bad, which made the game difficult, and it was incomparable to the game last season. We should score 1 to 2 goals in the first 25-30 minutes. After 10-11, the game became balanced. In order to score, we could only give up some defense, because when one person was missing, it was impossible to attack like when 11 people were on the court. All points are important. In my opinion, two draws are worse than one loss. Of course, if we tie today, our ranking would be better than the same period last year."
Mourinho's spokesman Paramez expressed his dissatisfaction with referee Alvarez on his Twitter after the game in order to support Real Madrid coach, "This referee is also Norwegian? It looks like."
The reason why Paramez says this is because when Real Madrid played against Zagreb away from Champions League, the referee Oderval was Norwegian. His penalty at the time attracted dissatisfaction from Real Madrid. After the game, he was bombarded by Caranca and C-Ronaldo. The referee when Chelsea played against Barcelona at home in the second leg of the Champions League semi-finals in the 2008-2009 season was also Norwegian. Obviously Paramez believes that Alvarez is as dark as these Norwegian referees.
But no matter how dissatisfied Real Madrid is with the referee, the result of the game cannot be changed, and they can only accept the fact that they lose one game.
Barcelona drew 2-2 with Real Sociedad in the third round and did not win all the games, but Barcelona performed much better than Real Madrid. In the past round, Barcelona showed terrifying offensive ability, and eight goals in the game told everyone the gap between Osasuna and them.
Messi is still the most popular player.
"Messi is angry, the consequences are serious."
In the two previous games including the Champions League group stage, Barcelona played 2-2. Messi not only failed to score, but also received a yellow card for fake falls against Real Sociedad.
Osasuna gave the goal at the wrong time, and Messi led Barcelona to complete a massacre. 3 goals, 2 assists, and 2 must-have goals were blocked by the goal frame. "The only thing that can stop Messi in this world is perhaps the goal frame left."
"Messi and Fabregas have a heart-to-heart relationship on the court, and Fabregas proves that he has a tacit understanding with the best player in the world." Daily Sports gave Fabregas and Messi a joint review on the red list. In Daily Sports' online score, Messi was also selected as the best player in the game by Barcelona fans with 9.3 points.
Messi's performance is indeed worthy of praise.
So far this season, Messi's report card has been amazing. In 7 games (La Liga, Champions League group stage, Spanish Super Cup, European Super Cup, World Club Cup), Messi scored a total of 8 goals and sent 7 assists.
This means that Messi can create an average of 2.2 goals per game.
World Sports Analysed Messi's performance in past games and concluded that "the 24-year-old Messi has scored 124 goals in 180 La Liga games, and he has scored a total of 189 goals for Barcelona."
"Barcelona's historical scorer Cesar scored a total of 5 goals, while Messi is only 46 goals away. If the current efficiency can be maintained, the Argentine can even drive Cesar off the altar this season."
Of course, no matter how good Messi performed, he could not help Barcelona score two league points, so their ranking could only be after Atletico Madrid.
So far in the La Liga, Atletico Madrid, which has won three games and three games, is not ranked first in the league, but is recognized as the most stable and performing best.
The match against Atletico Santander is also very important for Atletico Madrid. This game finally has a European broadcast, and the TV broadcaster is Spanish Sky TV.
Among European pay TV stations, Spain Sky TV can only be regarded as a medium-sized TV station, and it is not on the same level as Pro Radio and TV stations that monopolize top league broadcasts such as Sky TV, and Sky TV in the UK. Therefore, it is actually quite big news that Spain Sky TV can buy the exclusive European broadcasting rights at Atletico Madrid's home court.
If you want to watch Atletico Madrid and Atletico Santander in Europe, you can only use the Spanish Sky TV station. This uniqueness has brought more ratings and more paid users to Spanish Sky TV station.
Through exclusive live broadcasts of Atletico Madrid and Atletico Santander, the amount of profits Spanish Sky TV has not been announced to the public, but the general data can still be analyzed.
According to data from Telefère, 350,000 fans watched Atletico Madrid's home match against Atletico Santander through Spain Sky TV.
Spain Sky TV is a pay TV station. It is not free for fans to watch games. They need to pay at least a temporary monthly fee, that is, to watch a membership fee for one month before they can watch Spanish Sky TV programs. (~^~)
