football dynasty

Although Atletico Madrid was very excited after leading, they were not complacent about it.

They are well aware of Liverpool's strength, which can be seen from their results against Real Madrid.

Last season, Atletico Madrid played against Real Madrid twice in the league. The first Madrid derby was slaughtered by Real Madrid 4:1. The second Madrid derby returned to Atletico Madrid's home stadium Calderon. Atletico Madrid made up their minds Wash away the shame, but was once again slaughtered by Real Madrid 4:1.

When Atletico Madrid went all out, they were beaten twice by Real Madrid with the same score.

While Liverpool played against Real Madrid in the Champions League, they eliminated Real Madrid in the Champions League for two consecutive seasons and advanced, and set a record of four consecutive victories against Real Madrid.

Although it is not possible to simply divide the three teams into: Liverpool>Real Madrid>Atletico Madrid.

But I have to say that Liverpool is a team at the same level as Real Madrid. In contrast, Atletico Madrid can only be said to be Real Madrid's challenger. There is a clear gap in strength between them and Liverpool.

In addition to the awareness of strength, Atletico Madrid is also very eager to win the European Champions Cup.

Although some fans of Atletico Madrid claim that their team is the third pole and the third richest team in La Liga, in fact, Atletico Madrid has no way to compare with Real Madrid and Barcelona in terms of influence, performance, or financial resources.They have very little chance of winning the championship.

The domestic league is basically dominated by Barcelona and Real Madrid, and this rule does not only refer to the league championship.Serie A was ruled by Inter Milan that year, but Inter Milan only ruled the league championship, and he did not often win the Coppa Italia. Roma and Lazio have overturned Inter Milan and won the Coppa Italia.

But in Spain, the Copa del Rey is monopolized by Barcelona and Real Madrid.

Therefore, the only place where Atletico Madrid players can win the championship is actually in the European war.But the European war is not easy. After all, the European war is a cup game, and luck is more important. Besides, the opponents are not easy to deal with.

Now it is a championship to be able to win a championship. Even if the European Super Cup does not have a high gold content, it is very attractive to Atletico Madrid players.

Atletico Madrid's executives value the European Super Cup not only because of their desire for championships, but more importantly because of their desire for income.

The European Super Cup champion can get a bonus of 300 million euros, while the runner-up can only get a bonus of 80 euros.In addition to the bonus, there is also the income brought by the promotion of fame.

The current La Liga is bitter, not only because the bulk of the broadcast fees have been taken away by Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​but also because the landlords have no food left.

In La Liga under the Great Depression, only four teams spent more than 1000 million euros on signings.Note that it is the cost of signings, not the net investment. If the net investment is calculated, the cost will be even less.

Barcelona's summer spending this year is the lowest in nearly six years.They only spent 300 million euros on transfers this summer.

And Real Madrid is not much better, their net investment is only 250 million euros!

So the 80 euros may not seem like much, but it is extremely important to Atletico Madrid.

…………

Atletico Madrid still actively ran after taking the lead, which made Liverpool players feel uncomfortable.

They originally thought that Atletico Madrid players should relax some offensive rhythms, after all, they are already ahead.I didn't expect Atletico Madrid players to be able to run so well. Coupled with the connivance of the referee, Liverpool played a bit difficult.

No.308 minutes, Turan shot a world-like long shot from outside the penalty area. Fortunately, Neuer was in front of Liverpool's goal. He pushed the football out of the bottom line with both hands.

Only 2 minutes later, No. 40 minutes, Atletico Madrid made a cross.Falcao jumped high in the penalty area. Fortunately, although Benatia could not stop Falcao from taking off, he poked Falcao in the waist very covertly, preventing Falcao from hitting the football.

The football is slightly above the crossbar.

Falcao clashed with Benatia as soon as he landed and complained to the referee.

Although the referee favored Atletico Madrid, Benatia's actions just now were very subtle, and he did not dare to give Atletico Madrid a nod blatantly.After all, this game is the European Super Cup, and there are many fans watching it. He also has to pay attention to the impact.

Things got worse, and UEFA President Michel Platini couldn't keep him.

So he rejected Falcao's request for a penalty.
