Ultimate Demon Sword

Chapter 233 The Confidence to Win Barcelona

Wen Zhihao's goal caused a fundamental change in the mentality of the two teams. Sevilla's psychological advantage accumulated in half time was offset by this unconventional goal.The mentality of Atletico Madrid players gradually stabilized.

Simeone looked at Wen Zhihao with undisguised admiration.If you are one goal behind and return to the midfield locker room, you need to spend a lot of time to calm down the mentality of the players, and the effect is not necessarily good.

And Wen Zhihao's kick solved all the problems, surpassing his own words.

Simeone was very fortunate that when he was considering whether to get Wen Zhihao, his attitude was firm enough and the club was strong enough.Otherwise, this leader-level player with a super big heart may be an opponent that gives him a lot of headaches now.

Berriso angrily smashed the tactical board in the locker room of Seville, and at the same time criticized Banega unceremoniously, without giving face or taking care of his emotions just because he is old enough.From a defensive point of view, Banega should indeed be responsible for conceding the ball. The moment Wen Zhihao shot, he stayed a meter away from the ball and watched Wen Zhihao draw the ball up without an effective block.

Berriso stared at Banega, folded his hands on his chest, with an expression of indignation: "Evo, I asked you to keep an eye on Wen Zhihao every moment on the court, and tell me what you were thinking at that time?"

"I'm sorry, coach, I was wrong. I underestimated him." Banega had a good attitude, took the initiative to take responsibility, and looked like an old player.

Beliso's expression softened slightly.After all, the scene is still a tie, not behind, and this is only halftime, excessive accountability will only affect the mentality of the players in the second half.Berriso drew three layers of red circles on Wen Zhihao's name, and solemnly warned everyone: "In the second half, you must never make that mistake again. Evo, you have to stick to him like glue, and you can't let him out of your defensive range. At the same time, the midfielder tried his best to control the ball. We did a good job most of the first half and continued to maintain it. The opponent is not as invincible as it appears in the standings."

Berriso was busy cheering up the players and arranging targeted tactics for Wen Zhihao.On the other side, Simeone took advantage of these 15 minutes to quickly correct his mistakes.Revert back to the 4-3-3 formation and activate the frontcourt trio that is getting better.Augusto Fernandez was replaced in the midfield. He has only played a total of six games this season, but now the midfielder is short of major generals. To re-use the trio, he is the only choice for the midfielder.

In fact, this reflects that Atletico Madrid's family background is still not strong enough.If it is Barcelona or Real Madrid, they will definitely not drive away players who have not played much because of injuries to individual players such as Rakitic, Kroos, and Modric.Of course, there must be an impact, but the employer will definitely not be so stretched.

La Liga can be strong, and the two heroes of the Western Super League can maintain their dominance on two lines, which is also due to their strength.Although in the past few years, because Barcelona won the "Guaranteed lottery" in the Champions League group stage, many media have speculated that "Platini is Barcelona's godfather", but the continued prosperity of a wealthy club has little effect from external factors.

Compared with the real giants, Atletico Madrid is still weaker.Even if they win the league championship or even the Champions League this year, there is still a long way to go to compete with real super giants like Real Madrid and Barcelona.

But this is precisely the reason why Wen Zhihao rejected Real Madrid and chose Atletico Madrid.Many people think that super giants are good, at least they can get on the podium once or twice a season, even if they don't play, they can win the championship, but Wen Zhihao thinks it's boring.Once entering a wealthy family, the depths are like the sea, even if you win the unshakable main position with your own efforts, it will be difficult to stand out from the crowd of stars.After all, Ronaldo's light in Real Madrid is too dazzling, and Wen Zhihao is not a mediocre person who likes to defend the country and is willing to live under the light of others.

He wants to be a hero!Let the young people after Atletico Madrid mention them, the first generation who fought in the world and laid the foundation for the super giants!
In the popular saying in China, he doesn't want to be the rich second generation, but aspires to be the father of the rich second generation!

……

The situation improved a lot in the second half. Wen Zhihao showed extraordinary adaptability in front of the experienced Banega.In terms of experience, he is not as good as Banega. Wen Zhihao minimizes dribbling and breakthroughs, and consumes his opponents with his age and physical strength through one pass and uninterrupted running. Just after 10 minutes, Banega has already suffered from cramp.

However, Sevilla was not passive in the situation, and they played fast counterattacks with vigor and vitality. Usually, with two or three passes, Navas dribbled the ball all the way to the front of Atletico Madrid's penalty area.

No matter how threatening an attack is, it can't compare to a goalkeeper who is in a brave state.

In the 705th minute, Oblak leaped and blocked Ganso's long-range shot from outside the penalty area.

No.709 minutes, Sevilla scored a single-handed goal, Oblak abandoned the goal, took three strong steps, blocked Ben Yedder's shot with his chest, and forced the home fans to swallow back the cheers that came to their lips.

But that's not all.His performance is far from over.

"Another miraculous save by Oblak!"

"Header!!...Ah! Jan Oblak is really hard to shake, today he is hard to beat!"

Beliso saw that the offensive was getting stronger, and added another fire. Spanish international Nolito played and launched the final general attack.

No.806 minutes, Ben Yedder won a penalty for the home team.The best chance in the audience to overtake the score again, this time it should be scored, right?Sevilla fans pray in their hearts.

The results of it?
……

"Oh! Unbelievable, Ganso's penalty was saved! Oblak is like a god in front of Atletico Madrid. He cannot be defeated in this game!"

At the end of the game, the two sides shook hands 1:1.Wen Zhihao didn't shake hands with his opponent immediately after the match, but thanked Oblak first.His own goal would not have been worthwhile without him to block it.

In an interview after the game, Simeone was more confident about the upcoming decisive battle at the Nou Camp, but he understated the potential consequences of this draw and didn't seem to take it very seriously.

"The championship situation is not up to us, but this game gave me the hope of taking all three points in the expedition to Camp Nou. We have strong offensive firepower, and Wen once again proved that he is a reliable player with a big heart. As long as Oblak can continue to play in the second half, even zero opponents are not a myth!"

Simeone's words are crazy, but in the eyes of supporters, he has enough confidence!

The Catalan media criticized Simeone for being too idealistic.This kind of performance is already rare, but in the Nou Camp where [-] spectators gather, do you still want to continue the magic?
Here, the magic should only belong to Messi!
