Chapter 248 Work hard for undefeated!
When J Rodriguez hit the ball into Barcelona goal, many Barcelona fans' hearts broke.
They were full of expectations for victory in the whole game and were waiting for the last moment to win. Beating Atletico Madrid is their greatest wish. Their team can complete revenge, and they will feel very happy and have more confidence in the team.
The Catalan journalists waiting in the media table have also made a preparations to question Wan Sheng after the game, belittle Atletico Madrid, and praise Barcelona's victory, but...
The final time of the game, Atletico Madrid actually tied the score!
Calderon Stadium broadcast Juan Andres is already crazy. He has been mentally prepared to lose Atletico Madrid, but now the team equalizes the score.
This is a huge surprise!
"Rodriguez! Rodriguez! Rodriguez!" Juan Andres kept shouting j-Rodriguez's name, but he didn't know how many times he called it before changing his tone and roaring, "Rodriguez! The final kill! He completed the final kill! He helped Atletico tie the score! Now it's 1-1! Atletico tied! 1-1!"
"Before! A minute ago! Maybe everyone felt that, yes, myself, that Atletico Madrid had no hope, and Barcelona will definitely win. They will beat Atletico Madrid 1-0 at Calderon Stadium, but! Now! Atletico Madrid tied! Rodriguez! The Colombian star is simply amazing!"
"This is a miracle! It is Atletico Madrid's hope! A goal from Rodriguez allows Atletico Madrid to continue to remain unbeaten in the league!"
"This may be the beginning of a new miracle! After this game, Atletico Madrid will continue to be unbeaten for 62 rounds! It is only two rounds away from the 64 rounds of unbeaten created by Wan Sheng leading Manchester City! Atletico Madrid can look forward to a new record! A very great record!"
"If they can really create their own unbeaten record, then Rodriguez's goal will definitely be a big hit! Because of this goal, he will become the hero of Atletico Madrid's team history!"
Amid Juan Andres's excitement, J-Rodriguez opened his arms and ran wildly, hugging Isco, who assisted him.
This goal was scored by J-Rodriguez, but a large part of the credit should be taken to Isco because it was the opportunity Isco created for him. At the moment of shooting, he even felt that the goal was not difficult.
The two hugged each other tightly.
The other teammates rushed over and surrounded them, and everyone was very excited.
This game was too difficult.
The first time they felt that the tie-up score was so wonderful.
Atletico Madrid coaching seat, everyone was celebrating excitedly, and Wan Sheng hugged everyone excitedly.
Fan Zhiyi followed Wan Sheng to the competition site.
Now in the Atletico Madrid coaching team, all assistant coaches have positioned. Diamares is responsible for training-related matters most of the time. The former Atletico Madrid assistant coach Leon is responsible for part of the logistics and youth training. Fan Zhiyi's work is much more complicated. He has to deal with the media, participate in transfer work, participate in tactical research, and be directly responsible for competitions, etc.
This is actually Wansheng's training to Fan Zhiyi.
In fact, there are only two members of Wansheng's coaching team, one is Diamares and the other is Fan Zhiyi.
Diamares has made his attitude that he will not ‘go out and work alone’ himself, and his personality has also decided that he is not suitable to be a real head coach.
Fan Zhiyi is different.
He was originally a professional player and knew a lot about football. Football is his second life. He is now working in Wansheng's coaching staff, but it is certainly impossible for him to be like this all his life. He may leave in the future and find his own path.
Perhaps, Fan Zhiyi will become an excellent head coach in the future.
Wan Sheng also hopes that Fan Zhiyi can truly shoulder the heavy responsibilities one day, so he gave Fan Zhiyi more work to let him fully understand what the head coach needs to do and how to do these tasks as well.
In almost every game recently, Fan Zhiyi has participated in the competition.
Fan Zhiyi has not talked to Wan Sheng about this issue, but he also knows Wan Sheng’s idea and is very grateful for it. He attaches great importance to this opportunity and is very dedicated to every game he has experienced. When he saw J-Rodriguez helping the team tie the score, he was even more excited than Wan Sheng, "We tied! Tied! Haha! Hames is so outstanding!"
"Yes, I didn't expect it!"
"Others performed well, we tied this game, and we can prepare to break the record next time! Wansheng, can we really achieve it? The longest unbeaten record in the five major leagues! It feels like a dream no matter how you think about it..."
Wan Sheng laughed loudly, patted Fan Zhiyi on the shoulder hard, and said, "This is not a dream, Lao Fan, this is reality, we must do it!"
Fan Zhiyi looked at Wansheng with a grin.
Wansheng didn't react.
Fan Zhiyi rubbed his shoulders, pinched Wansheng's arm muscles with his hands, and said, "Wansheng, do you know that your strength is really great? I feel that my shoulders are about to fall apart. I must go see the doctor in a while..."
Wan Sheng smiled awkwardly.
The Barcelona players felt very uncomfortable when they looked at Atletico Madrid excitedly. Just now they thought the team was about to win, but now they are tied again. Why is this happening?
Is Atletico Madrid really invincible?
Many players couldn't help but look at the Atletico Madrid coaching seat. The Chinese man was standing there. Perhaps the one who scored the goal was J-Rodriguez, but many people subconsciously wrote "creating miracles" on Wan Sheng, because anyone thought that Wan Sheng was the one who created miracles, and J-Rodriguez, to put it bluntly, was just an excellent star.
Barcelona players feel very uncomfortable. If they work harder, they will be a draw in the end. So, will they really have a chance to win the next time the two teams meet?
Some players are beginning to be pessimistic.
This game is not the last match of this season. The two teams will definitely have to compete in the final of the Copa del Rey and may also face each other in the Champions League.
They have not beaten Atletico Madrid in two seasons.
So in the next encounter, does Barcelona really have hope of winning?
When Barcelona players were skeptical of victory, the game between the two teams started again. Barcelona was eager to equalize the score and played very fiercely. Atletico Madrid steadily retreated and defended without giving Barcelona any chance.
After several waves of offensives, time passed.
When the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game, the scoreboard did not change at all, and it was still '1-1'. Atletico Madrid tied Barcelona 1-1 at the last moment, keeping the team's continued unbeaten in the league.
This result disappointed Barcelona.
Wansheng was very happy.
Although I didn't win at Calderon Stadium, how could I definitely win the football game? Barcelona is not a weak team. They are one of the top teams in the world. The team cannot always win Barcelona. But at least in this game, the team did not lose, especially the final victory, which made it feel like the team was winning the game.
Barcelona must be feeling very unhappy, but their unhappiness is good news for Atletico Madrid.
At the post-match press conference, Wan Sheng also expressed his opinion, "It's such a pity! I thought I was going to lose the game! What am I thinking when the game is about to end?"
"That's right! I'm praying to all kinds of gods, including the gods of the East, the Jade Emperor, the Queen Mother, the Grand Princess, the Grand Lord of the Supreme Lord, the Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, the God of Land, Zhu Bajie, Sun Monkey, and the disciple of the Tathagata Buddha, Jin Chanzi... etc., etc. Of course, there are also the Gods of the West and other gods? Perhaps yes, I don't know the names very well, but in short, my prayer takes effect..."
A group of reporters from the audience looked at each other. After hearing Wan Sheng’s words, their first reaction was, “Why do you feel that there are so many fewer Western gods than Eastern?”
Many people think that when they go back, they must supplement the mythological knowledge of the East, otherwise they will not understand what this Chinese is talking about!
Wan Sheng continued with a smile, "Thank you all kinds of gods! Of course, the most important thing is that my players performed very well, Isco's assists and Rodriguez's goals, they were all great! We tied the score! I was very satisfied with the result! I only said the last sentence..."
"Barcelona can start looking forward to revenge next time!"
Although Atletico Madrid drew with J-Rodriguez's final goal, the draw was a draw, and no matter how precious it was, it was just a draw. Atletico Madrid lost two points and also lost the top spot in the league standings.
Real Madrid performed stably and well.
In this round, Real Madrid challenged Vallecano away. With a surprisingly magical goal from C-Ronaldo, he won a 1-0 away victory. This was Real Madrid's ninth straight victory since the league loss to Barcelona 1-3.
After the game, almost all media praised C-Ronaldo.
"The magical Ronaldo, a magical goal." "Marca" used this as the title to report on Real Madrid's game. "For this magical Portuguese, the goal is no longer special, but there is no doubt that the game against Vallecano will be remembered by him, because in this game he completed a wonderful, perhaps a goal that can never be copied."
That was in the 55th minute of the game, and c-Ronaldo scored a goal from outside the small penalty area - the most important thing is that the Portuguese completed this powerful shot with his heel.
An incredible goal happened like this.
At that time, Real Madrid took a corner kick from the left. The ball first hit the small penalty area and then bounced out. C-Ronaldo turned around and chased the ball and did not choose to stop the ball and turn around or pass the ball. Instead, it unexpectedly hit the ball directly with his heel. No one expected that he would choose to shoot with his heel when running in the reverse direction. The ball passed through four Vallecano defenders and teammate Khedira, and rolled into the far corner of the goal under the gaze of Vallecano goalkeeper.
"Incredible, Ronaldo!"
Many Spanish media said the goal is reminiscent of the heel scored by Henry, who still played for Arsenal in the 2004-2005 season, in the match against Charlton.
At that time, Henry received a pass from his teammate in front of the small penalty area and leaned on the opponent's defender with his body, then knocked his right heel directly, and the ball blocked the opponent's defender and rolled into the far corner.
But in terms of difficulty, Henry's goal was obviously not as good as C-Ronaldo. First of all, C-Ronaldo's goal was farther away and had reached a position parallel to the penalty spot. Secondly, there were five opponents between him and the goal. The most important point was that the Portuguese scored this time in the sports game, and it was exerting force in the opposite direction. The difficulty can be imagined.
Looking back at history, from the difficulty level, what can be discussed with this goal is the wonderful world wave that Cantona scored in the 1996 FA Cup final Manchester United beat Liverpool 1-0. At that time, the Frenchman was backing and volleyed the ball into a dead corner. C-Ronaldo's goal is similar to Cantona's performance. They all shot in the opposite direction in the movement. Cantona scored when facing the goal and c-Ronaldo scored with his heel when moving forward.
It was precisely with this gorgeous world wave that Real Madrid won the victory, surpassed Atletico Madrid's points, and sat at the top of the league.
"Marca" commented, "Although he wasted an excellent scoring opportunity at the last moment and failed to tie Pacinho who scored 124 goals in the historical scorer list, his score of 1 goal in 126 games is already the first in team history, with an average efficiency of 0.98 goals per game, even the two seniors Puskas (0.93) and Stefano (0.81) are inferior to each other."
As the media said, C-Ronaldo is indeed very good.
In La Liga, few players can compare with him. Of course, the Catalan media will definitely give Messi an example. Many people also think Messi is better, but in fact, Wan Sheng appreciates c-Ronaldo more because Messi is a star in the "Barcelona system". He has always played for Barcelona and has not proved himself in other teams. In comparison, c-Ronaldo is even more a personal hero. Many of his goals are scored by his own ability. Such a star will perform very well no matter which team he goes to.
Wan Sheng has always wanted to develop a "c-Ronaldo", but it has always failed: from Morris to Torres, from Torres to Ozil, from Ozil to Diego Costa, Falcao, J-Rodriguez, etc. These players have good personal abilities, but due to the limitations of their mental attributes, even if their personal abilities have been improved to the same level as c-Ronaldo, their performance is difficult to compare with c-Ronaldo.
This is the problem.
Many times Wan Sheng even wonders whether he can compare with C-Ronaldo and Messi only when he plays, with his own spiritual attributes and abilities. Unfortunately, it is very unrealistic for him to play football now.
If he had such spiritual attributes when traveling through time at the age of 25, he might have chosen to be a professional player and fulfill his dream when he was a teenager, rather than becoming a football coach directly.
It's meaningless to think about this. What the team is concerned about is to continue to remain unbeaten in the league and strive to break Manchester City's 64-round unbeaten record.
Atletico Madrid is working hard!
ps: I came back from my father-in-law's house yesterday. The smog was too serious. The expressway was blocked. I ran down the road for more than 7 hours and got home at 2 o'clock in the evening... I would like to complain about the smog here. It's noon now, and the visibility outside the window is less than 100 meters.
After talking nonsense, I weakly asked for two monthly tickets (~^~)
Chapter completed!
