Chapter 561 Consecutive Kills
According to the usual practice, Gao Bo should have given the players a day off after the victory.

But because of the frequent competitions, Gao Bo canceled his vacation.

The quarter-finals of the Champions League ended on April [-]th, and on April [-]th, Atletico Madrid will soon go to an away game to challenge Levante.

If you take a day off, the team basically doesn't need to make any pre-match preparations before facing Levante.

Therefore, Gao Bo must ensure the team's state on the field, and the vacation is uncontrollable, so he simply canceled the vacation.

This is also the consequence of frequent competitions.

Many La Liga teams participating in the European war will lead to a landslide decline in league performance, which is related.

However, Atletico Madrid's rotation has been doing well, and basically the players of the first team can guarantee a certain amount of playing time.

Gao Bo's first team lineup is not huge, especially in the winter window, he also sent away two players, Saul and Immobile, and the number of first team is even smaller.

But the small number of people does not mean that Atletico Madrid's bench is poor.

Gao Bo values ​​quality over quantity.If the first team has a large number of unnecessary redundant players, it is not a good thing for the team. In addition to the high salary pressure, it is also a damage to the unity of the team's locker room.

Now everyone has a chance to play, so now there is no problem in the Atlético dressing room, everyone has the same goal and works together.

In the game against Levante, Gao Bo once again made a large-scale rotation.

This is already commonplace in the eyes of the Spanish media.

This is the No.30 second round of the league. The next round, which is the No.30 third round, the team will face Real Madrid at home!

The Madrid derby is naturally the focus of attention. This is a game that has a very important impact on the championship of the entire league.

No matter who the two sides win or lose, or even a tie, it will be a very major change for the form of the championship!

Therefore, Gao Bo attached great importance to this game.

As for the match against Levante, Gao Boxue hid most of the main players in order to hold back his strength to win Real Madrid at home and gain an absolute advantage in the league!

In the last Champions League game, Allegri said that Atletico Madrid was lucky.

But in this game, their luck is not ideal.

The first is the weather. Before the start of the game, it began to rain lightly in Valencia, and soon after the start of the game, the rain gradually became heavier.

Levante's home city stadium is a small stadium that can only accommodate more than 2 spectators. The drainage facilities in the stadium are not very good. In fact, the facilities at home of many small La Liga teams are not advanced.

Because of heavy rain like this, it is rare to encounter it several times a year in Spain.

The rain quickly flooded the stadium. It became very difficult for football to run on such a field, and there were more accidents.

And Atletico Madrid is a team that is accustomed to walking on the ground. Therefore, such weather is undoubtedly quite unfavorable for Atletico Madrid's offense!
From this point of view, Atletico Madrid is really bad luck.

Gao Bo stood on the sidelines, the rain splashing on his face.

On the court, Mane wanted to complete a dribble, but the football floated on the water. This time the dribble naturally became a goal loss.

But then Mane immediately fouled and prevented the opponent from counterattacking.

This scene has happened several times.

Naturally, this game can hardly be called exciting.

Gao Bo shook his head.

"When will the rain stop?"

Gao Bo asked Mo Ya depressedly.

"The weather forecast is realistic and the rain will lighten in about 10 minutes."

"Damn it, this weather forecast has never been reliable!"

Gao Bo looked at the chaos on the court, the team couldn't organize an offense at all under such circumstances.

And just when Gao Bo was considering changing his strategy, an accident on the court made Gao Bo even more depressed.

A counterattack by Levante, the football flew high into the penalty area, and after hitting a puddle of water on the ground, it floated to the other side, almost shaking Boateng a big somersault.

And Levante's starting striker Kone was annoyed!
The football just landed at his feet. On the edge of the penalty area, Kone kicked a shot. The football became slippery and heavy in the rain. Navas threw his hands, but still could not completely save the ball.

The football rolled into the net!
Atlético Madrid one goal behind!
Gao Bo looked at the game time.

At this time, it was almost No. 40 minutes, and the first half of the game was about to end.

Gao simply sat back on the coach's bench. In the second half, the team had to adjust.

One goal behind is not a big problem.

Gao Bo was not in a hurry.

However, before his butt was hot on the coach's bench, he suddenly jumped up and ran to the sidelines.

At this time, Levante's offense was initiated from the backcourt, and a long pass went directly to the frontcourt. This time it was another Levante striker, Senela.

After he stopped the ball in the chest, he took a long shot.

The football flew through the net and into the Atlético Madrid goal.

Throughout the first half, Levante scored two goals with two shots!
Valencia City Stadium is completely boiling!
They saw an opportunity to beat the league's new bully Atletico Madrid at home!
At halftime, Kobo was critical of the team's defense and told Lucio to warm up.

Boateng's eyes were gloomy, he thought the coach was going to replace him.

As a result, Gao Bo didn't intend to do this.

"Lucio replaces Anthony!"

Griezmann replaced? ! !

The players wanted to go in every way.

Isn't it time to strengthen the offense now, why are you still planning to play three backs?
"Godin goes up and kicks the center forward!! In such a field, you don't need to cooperate with the ground. Give me a header in the penalty area!!"

Gao Bo slapped the table hard, his face was ferocious!
Walking on the ground is no longer possible. Such a venue cannot provide the conditions for ground cooperation at all. Griezmann's technical ability cannot be fully utilized in such a venue, so Gao Bo simply switched to the most brutal tactics.

Hit it with a header!

Pushing Godin to the penalty area, plus Diego Costa, and Mario Suarez, these tall men stand in the penalty area, which is still very deterrent!

"No matter what, you must not lose!! Even if it is a draw! The league is over in a few games, and any loss of points may cause the league champion to lose!!"

Atletico Madrid's players also know the seriousness of the problem.

Before facing Real Madrid, if he loses points first, what is the difference between losing a derby.And the difficulty of winning Real Madrid is of course much greater than winning Levante.

Before the start of the second half, people saw Lucio standing on the sidelines.

"Atlético Madrid ready to replace a centre-back?!"

Aduriz was a little strange.

"Is it because Gao Bo was dissatisfied with Boateng's performance in the first half? To some extent, the two goals conceded by Atletico Madrid in the first half were indeed related to Boateng's defense, but it was more because of the weather."

While Aduriz was speaking, the fourth official held up the sign for a substitution.

Griezmann replaced? !
Aduriz was taken aback, is Atletico Madrid going to play three backs?

Aduriz's doubts are also the doubts of most people.

It wasn't until the game restarted that people discovered that Gao Bo didn't want to play a back three.

Instead, it was time to kick 4312-Diego Costa and Godin in the front, and Mario Suarez behind them.

Atletico Madrid always has three high points in the penalty area, and Gao Bo also used all the cards that can improve the ability of crossing from the side, long passing, and heading.

Then, things get easier.

Since they couldn't walk on the ground, they kept passing long passes through the midfield and both sides to rush to Levante's defense.

Atletico Madrid's control is not bad, so after a steady stream of crosses and long passes from the side, Atletico Madrid finally scored the first goal in the 70th minute of the game.

The goal came from Diego Costa. The left back Alba passed the ball from the wing. Costa shook his head and finally sent the ball into the opponent's goal.

After the goal, the morale of Atletico Madrid was greatly shaken. In the heavy rain, they kept sending the ball into the penalty area and hitting Levante's defense with high-altitude balls.

In the words of Aduriz - this game can finally show that Gao Bo is a head coach from England's low-level league. He completely retains the British style of play!
Although the offensive efficiency is low, when you try a lot, you can always score goals.

In the 803rd minute of the game, Godin also seized the opportunity to score!
Still a header!
The Atlético Madrid players did not celebrate after the goal, even though they had equalized.

There are still 10 minutes left in the game, and they must seize the time to score another goal. A draw also means failure for Atletico Madrid.

Levante completely gave up their offense, and even a draw is acceptable to them.

While shrinking across the board, while passing a long pass, it was raining heavily.

Those who don't know may think that this is a British Championship or League One game played in England.

In the last 5 minutes of the game, Gao Bo simply asked Boateng to play as a guest center in the penalty area!
Always remember, there will be reverberations.

In the last 1 minute of stoppage time, Mario Suarez grabbed a point. After he headed the ball to the back point, Mane, who came up from the back point, slammed the ball into the goal with his stomach!

Another lore goal!

When Mane smashed the ball into the opponent's goal, everyone in the Atletico Madrid coaching bench came out.

In the heavy rain, Gao Bo raised his arms and shouted! !
The feeling of continuous lore killing the game is really exciting.

Atletico Madrid players finally released all the pressure at this time!

On the field, after scoring the goal, Mane was under heavy pressure by the players, and even the players on the bench came up to join in the fun!

Gao Lang breathed a sigh of relief.

Thinking about the consequences of losing this game, Gao Bo couldn't help sweating down his back.
