Ultimate Demon Sword

Chapter 178 Thunder doesn't rain (Second update on the weekend!)
At the beginning of the new season of the five major leagues this year, the old giants that had been silent have risen one after another, and the signs of recovery are obvious.Manchester United blasted 12 goals after four rounds of the Premier League, and remained unbeaten with three wins and one draw.As for Serie A, the most surprising one is Inter Milan.At the end of the three rounds of Serie A, Inter Milan won three consecutive victories, beating Fiorentina 3:0, Rome 3:1 away, and Spal 2:0.Very rich.Spalletti, the old Serie A fritter who took over the team at the end of last season, gave the team a new look. Inter Milan has vaguely recovered the spirit of the 2009-10 season when they won the Triple Crown.

It is also based on this performance that the media has refocused their attention on this traditional Serie A giant. If they continue to perform like this, maybe they will be able to return to the Champions League next season.

On the day of the game, Wen Zhihao also received interview calls from reporters, all of whom were extremely curious domestic media, because Inter Milan's tweet aroused their interest, and they were eager to hear something from Wen Zhihao.

Wen Zhihao asked back on the phone: "The lovers who have broken up, can you suspect that they are still disconnected because of a kind greeting from the other party? Thanks to Inter Milan for the blessing, but I am now an Atletico Madrid player."

This episode was at best a small tidbit. When the game started, all eyes returned to the court.

Walking into the Olympic Stadium in Rome, Wen Zhihao heard the familiar Champion League theme song, and he was immediately brought into the atmosphere of the Champions League.When enjoying the Champions League as a spectator in the past, he only felt the excitement of the game, but now he realizes what it feels like to step on the Champions League as a player. The atmosphere alone can activate every cell in the body, and the blood has begun to burn.

Of course, this is only for Wen Zhihao, and more people like him who made their debut in the Champions League can only feel nervous.

Wen Zhihao was still placed on the bench for this game, and Simeone prefers to use him as a substitute in the final stage of the game. When both sides' physical fitness declines, Wen Zhihao's appearance can bring unexpected rhythm changes.

"Diego Simeone still trusts his direct descendants more. I bet that Griezmann's state is definitely not as good as Wen. He sat on the bench for two consecutive rounds in the league. No one can guarantee his performance, but Wen's performance is recognized. Except for scoring, he has done a good job. But it is no wonder he, scoring is also a matter of luck."

Spanish national television commentator Garcia "fair" comments.If the domestic fans hear these words, they must be in a better mood.The absence of a Chinese player will make the TV commentary openly complain, which is a kind of respect.

And this kind of respect has nothing to do with other factors off the court, it is completely a manifestation of strength.

In the first game as a guest, Simeone worked hard in the midfield, and the strategy of defensive counterattack was implemented from the beginning of the starting list. The regular formation of 4-4-2.The four midfielders Thomas, Gabi, Cork and Saul are all players who can move in the middle and have strong interception ability.On the front line are Griezmann's partner Vietto and two fast horses.Simeone's first thought is to stabilize the defense.But Atletico Madrid's defense is also a way to press the offense, because few teams can smoothly advance the ball from the ground through the midfield, and once the ball is intercepted, Atletico Madrid's swift counterattack will directly hit the empty defense.

Di Francesco's formation is still 4-3-3, and the midfield strength is also not weaker than Atletico Madrid.Strowman, De Rossi and Nainggolan are a combination of old and new, with both experience and vitality.The battle between the two sides in the midfield will determine the trend of the game.

The home fans collectively sang the Roma team anthem to express their support for the home team, but it was Atletico Madrid who took control of the game faster.

At just one minute and 50 seconds into the game, Saul overtook forcibly on the left and passed the ball to the penalty area line. Griezmann was just outflanking the penalty area. At this time, there was no interference around him. sweat.

"Oh! Griezmann almost gave Atletico Madrid a start that couldn't have been better! His shot sight needs to be adjusted again." Garcia said.

"It can be seen from this shot that Griezmann is indeed some distance away from his normal state. No wonder Simeone's starting lineup will be questioned."

He Wei's words are much more straightforward and sharp.As a Chinese commentator, he will look at issues from Wen Zhihao's point of view throughout the whole process.For Griezmann, a competitor related to Wen Zhihao's playing time, his attitude is of course self-evident.

In fact, He Wei hopes that Griezmann can waste a few more opportunities like this. When Simeone can't stand it anymore, Wen Zhihao's chance will come.

The trend of the game was surprising. The two sides changed their offensive and defensive positions on the field. Roma had an empty offensive formation. They were basically in passive defense for the first half an hour.Atletico Madrid played aggressively and aggressively.The league didn't go well, and the players were suffocating, wanting to let it out on the Champions League stage.

But this is a pain for the home fans of Rome. They almost experience the feeling of heartbeat with every counterattack of Atletico Madrid. At the beginning, there will be boos when Atletico Madrid counterattacks, but this kind of sound becomes less and less as the game progresses.

The home team was almost completely reduced to a passive defense. After stealing the ball, Atletico Madrid could not pass the three-legged pass and quickly returned to counterattack on the spot. The veteran midfielder De Rossi was crushed by ruthless flesh.

The scene was very lively, but the problems exposed in the last game of Atletico Madrid have not been resolved.Despite completely suppressing the situation, Griezmann still failed to score a goal. Griezmann seemed to hit it off with the side net tonight. All three good chances in the penalty area hit the side net. Saul also had two unguarded shots from outside the penalty area, which were more straightforward than Griezmann and sent directly to goalkeeper Alisson.

The fans of the home team slowly began to see that today Atletico Madrid typically only thunders but never rains, and they simply have a monkey mentality. After each unsuccessful attack by Atletico Madrid, the stands began to applause and simply started booing.

Wen Zhihao was more active on the bench than the players on the field, screaming strangely, slapping his thighs in various ways to vent his emotions, especially Griezmann wasted three opportunities close to the penalty area, Wen Zhihao's performance was even more exaggerated than Simeone.Those who don't know must have thought that he bet heavily on this game.

"Kevin, do you want to make a bet?" Wen Zhihao asked Gameiro next to him.

"What are you gambling?"

"The boss will replace Antoine (Griezmann) with me at half-time."

Wen Zhihao rubbed his hands, feeling very excited.

Gameiro rolled his eyes, but he was not blind. He could tell that Griezmann was not in good shape. If he made this kind of bet, he must lose, and he would only agree if he had a brain hole!

The first half ended 0:0. When they left the field, the faces of the players on both sides were not very good. From the perspective of the scene, Roma lost to tactics, and Atletico Madrid lost to luck. Both sides were losers.
