Chapter 289 Make History, Leave Regrets
Two days later, the opponents of Atletico Madrid's Copa del Rey final were also decided.

There is no suspense, Barcelona eliminated Sevilla in another game, and the final will be a head-to-head PK between Atletico Madrid and Barcelona.

For other teams, this season's league tasks are over, and the last opponent is the mid-range team Eibar, Atletico Madrid won them at home.Simeone is also very satisfied with everyone's performance this season, and joked with everyone during training: "With only one game left, you can leave your name in the history of La Liga. The unbeaten record of the first La Liga season in 90 will be created by you. So in the next game, you will not fight for me or the team, but for yourself. Use the last victory to make this record more complete."

In fact, Simeone doesn't need to say much at all. Everyone knows that there will be an award ceremony after this game, and no one wants to be smashed by their opponents on this carnival night.

You can strive for a perfect ending, why should you regret it?
As for Wen Zhihao, in the last match, he still wanted to hit a small goal.

This has to start with the interview after the Copa del Rey semi-final two days ago.

When interviewing Wen Zhihao, a reporter from CCTV asked him a question: "The record of assists in a single season in La Liga is 2008 created by Barcelona legend Xavi in ​​the 09-37 season. In the first [-] rounds, you already had [-] assists. Eibar's strength is not strong. Do you have the confidence to achieve a hat-trick of assists and tie Harvey's record?"

Wen Zhihao was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Under the premise of ensuring the team's victory, I'm still very interested in challenging."

After all, he is a young man under the age of 20. It is impossible for normal people to make him completely selfless, let alone the competitive age of teens and 20s.

Who wouldn't want to fight for the chance to be on an equal footing with legendary players?
On the day of the game, Wen Zhihao approached Simeone and asked tentatively, "Boss, let's discuss something. As long as I don't get injured in the game tonight, can I not be replaced in advance?"

Simeone's face remained unchanged, but he stared at Wen Zhihao, obviously wanting to know the reason.

Wen Zhihao said it briefly.

Simeone thought for a while and replied: "Yes, but if there is a situation where you must end, you must cooperate!"

"That's for sure, I know how to measure." Wen Zhihao nodded.

……

In the last match, the Metropolitan Stadium was almost full. Most of the fans actually came for the award ceremony after the game, witnessing the team's return to the top. Only such a reason has sufficient appeal.

In the player tunnel, everyone can see that the championship trophy is placed in the center of the field. Atletico Madrid players are all gearing up, showing excited expressions.

More than half of the players in this team have the experience of winning the championship last time, but no one thinks there are too many championship trophies, including Griezmann's expression, which is both excited and satisfied.

When Wen Zhihao walked onto the court, he touched the championship trophy deliberately. He Wei was also in a good mood. Seeing this scene, he couldn't help joking: "Haha! This reminds me of a curse about the championship. Anyone who touches the championship trophy in advance will miss the championship. This curse is well known to the fans because of Zidane's touch in the 2006 World Cup final. Wen Zhihao's move is a denial. But this is exactly what he likes to do. After this season, everyone will mention La Liga. Just talk about Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​and you shouldn’t just focus on Messi and Ronaldo, right? Wen Zhihao has participated in subverting the traditional La Liga structure, and he has never lost a game in direct dialogue with Real Madrid and Barcelona. This was not the case in the 2013-14 season when he won the championship before. He is the most critical disruptor of the pattern.”

"It can be said that since this season, La Liga has really formed a situation where the three heroes stand together!" Xu Yang added.

In the last game, Simeone gave some players who had less chances to play a chance to perform.Gabi was replaced by Augusto Fernandez and Vrsaljko was rotated at left-back.The Serbian international was an important candidate for the team last season. Since entering 2018, he has only played twice in the Copa del Rey.There is basically no sense of existence.There have been news that many La Liga and Bundesliga mid-range teams intend to introduce him in the summer window. At the same time, Carrasco and Atletico Madrid's substitute goalkeeper Moya are also caught in the transfer message.

Like Vrsaljko, they basically have no place in the new system after Simeone's transformation.Carrasco also has the title of Belgian international, so naturally he doesn't have to worry about finding a good next home.As for Moya, it is because of his age that he does not want to spend time on the bench, so he wants to find a team that can play games to play his spare heat and enjoy his career.

Closer to home, considering that the outcome of this game has no practical significance, Atletico Madrid mainly focused on controlling the scene in the opening stage. Wen Zhihao's running speed was not too fast, and he mainly focused on passing the ball to his teammates.Regardless of the overall situation of the team or the need for personal assists, this way of playing is understandable.Moreover, Wen Zhihao passes the ball more often, which can lead to the rhythm of the whole team.After all, some players have no chance to play for a season, and they need someone on the court to help them create opportunities to catch the ball and stimulate their state.

Wen Zhihao still controlled the rhythm very steadily on the court, with a certain degree of relaxation.Our players do not appear in the offensive position, so we will never pass the threatening ball easily.Simeone nodded frequently off the court, showing a satisfied expression.

He is not worried that Wen Zhihao puts his personal goals above the overall interests of the team, Wen Zhihao is not such a lone wolf character.But he was worried that Wen Zhihao would be in a hurry because of this, which would speed up the entire offensive and defensive rhythm, which would easily allow the opponent to seize the opportunity to counterattack.But after only watching for 10 minutes, Simeone dispelled such concerns.In the next time, the only thing he expected was to score a few goals.At the same time, he was wondering if Wen Zhihao could send out three assists, tying Harvey's record.

Relying on the iron barrel formation, Eibar still worked hard on the defensive end. Wen Zhihao's first assist did not arrive until 4 minutes into the second half.

No. 18 assists!

Atletico Madrid scored the first goal, which somewhat hit the hearts of the Ebar players.After only 7 minutes, Atletico Madrid expanded their advantage.Wen Zhihause's pass to Costa changed its line after hitting the defender, but it still fell at Costa's feet, and took advantage of the opportunity to shoot to seal the victory.

But this goal cannot be counted as Wen Zhihao's assist.

The score was finally fixed at 2:0, and Wen Zhihao's personal league assists this season stayed at [-].

"Congratulations to Atletico Madrid for making history! Became the first undefeated team in La Liga since its official establishment in 1928, and congratulations to Wen Zhihao for being the La Liga assist leader with eight assists. This is a personal honor that surpasses any Asian player, and a historic milestone for Chinese overseas players!"

Wen Zhihao crouched on the court, feeling a little regret amidst his excitement.The team's creation of history is worth celebrating, but the goal of tying Harvey's record can only be achieved next season.
