Star Coach

The continuous games in the league and Champions League, plus the Copa del Rey, have left Atletico with no rest. The players' condition is gradually declining, and injuries are recurring.

Jiangshan is exhausted just from lining up every week. There are new injured players every week and they have to adjust their lineup. Fortunately, they have maintained an undefeated record in the league and can still maintain their top position.

However, Atletico Madrid's points have been tied by Barcelona, ​​which is frantically grabbing points. They are waiting to challenge Atletico Madrid in the league away from home. As long as they defeat Atletico Madrid away from home, they can seize the top spot.

Atletico Madrid's injury wave continues, and the impact of frequent injuries is fatal. Jiangshan suddenly discovered that after the Champions League round of 16, more than half of the team's main lineup was injured. The next games will be hard.

In the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey, Atletico Madrid lost 0:1 away and 1:1 at home. They sadly lost to Mallorca and missed the chance to defend their title. In the Champions League, they were unlucky and were drawn against Bundesliga hegemon Bayern Munich.

According to the odds offered by the betting company, Jiangshan's team will definitely fall into the hands of Bayern. Although there is still a little time, Atletico Madrid's injury status cannot be ignored and they will definitely not be able to play at full strength.

Facing Bayern, Jiangshan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, it was only Bayern. With Atletico Madrid's state, whether it was Chelsea or Manchester United, they had only a dead end.

"Unfortunately, they have encountered frequent injuries. Their lineup is too thin, but injuries are also part of the game." Guardiola talked about it. They are about to challenge Atletico Madrid. He is full of confidence now, " Of course, this is not Jiangshan’s fault. Atletico Madrid’s lineup is too thin, and Atletico Madrid’s senior management should be responsible for this.”

Guardiola found a rare opportunity and was finally able to overlook the country. It was so exciting!

"But we will still use 120 points to win the game. They don't have enough frontcourt players, but the midfielder is very strong. We can't take it lightly. As long as they win the game, Barcelona will be at the top of the list."

Guardiola finally issued a challenge to his master Jiang Shan. As long as Barcelona wins the game, it is impossible to give up the top spot.

They are still progressing together on all fronts. They have the hope of winning the Champions League and the King's Cup. And in the King's Cup option, their biggest rival Atletico Madrid has just been eliminated. They almost regard the King's Cup as their own. .

In the Champions League, they are also very confident of reaching the semi-finals. As long as they reach the semi-finals, they can look forward to the finals.

Therefore, Guardiola is now full of strength. After the press conference, he is still muttering to himself, "How many years have I been waiting? I finally waited for the best opportunity. This year I will succeed in one fell swoop."

"I want to create the first triple crown in La Liga. In the future, I will surpass the world and become the greatest head coach in football."

Jiangshan looked at the injured and suspended lineups, feeling a little helpless. Costa was suspended again and received consecutive red cards. I don’t know what this guy was thinking. He just couldn’t control his small moves on the court, and they often turned into big ones. action.

Costa, Di Maria and Sanchez are missing in the frontcourt, Khedira is missing in the midfield, and Pablo and Ivanovic are missing in the backcourt. Almost half of the main force is lost. If it weren't for Aguero , Royce and others can make a smooth comeback, there is no need to play in this game, just admit defeat.

"It is undeniable that Barcelona is very strong. We have serious injury problems. In this game, they have a greater chance of winning. But I am not surprised. I have said long ago that Guardiola will become one of the best coaches. One, now, he did it. "Jiang Shan took the initiative to show weakness when facing reporters, and used a little psychological warfare.

Facing Barcelona at home, Jiangshan fielded a decent lineup.

Franco served as the starting goalkeeper. On the back line, Peña, Perea, Bender and Setaridis played together. It was a complete back line, but the reserve strength was insufficient and it was a bit uncomfortable.

In the lineup of midfielder Garcia, Gabi, Maniche, and Vidal, Maniche was all arranged to play. There was no other way but this.

In the frontcourt position, Aguero and Royce partnered, with Royce lurking behind Aguero and acting as a shadow forward. Royce is not strong enough and cannot carry the frontcourt, so he can only resort to this strategy.

Guardiola looked at Atletico Madrid's starting lineup and felt a little happy, but also a little unwilling. "It's not a complete lineup. I defeated Jiangshan, but the ingredients are still not good enough. Next time, I will definitely kill him, preferably... in the Champions League.”

Their lineup has not changed much since the last meeting. Busquets replaced Yaya Toure in the starting lineup and became the main defensive midfielder. The guy who relies on anticipation to defend is actually very powerful.

Pochettino once again mobilized Jiangshan before the game, "Now forget our status as the top one. As long as we lose this game, it will be difficult for us to catch up with Barcelona. Remember the tactics arranged before the game,"

"Run, run, run. Everyone starts running, using running to attack their defense and tear apart their counterattack tactics."

Pochettino was hoarse. He didn't know how effective Jiangshan's tactics were. Faced with crazy passing and control, wouldn't he use defensive counterattacks to defeat them? Still want to run around and talk about it?

At least, he didn't quite dare to believe it, so he used a huge roar to give himself authority and secretly forced him to believe it temporarily.

"I can't understand Jiangshan's tactics. As long as I win this game, I can figure out a routine. Can passing, cutting and running really bring about unexpected effects?"

In fact, Jiangshan usually uses this tactic, but the scope is relatively small, there is more running in the frontcourt, and there is still little linkage in the backcourt. After all, the lineup is thin and crazy running cannot last the whole season, and players are prone to injuries. .

But now, there is no other way. There are only these few players left. They still have to face Barcelona. They will definitely have to fight hard. In addition, they will face Real Madrid in the next game. As long as they win, they can once again establish their advantage in the standings and gain momentum. Take action to challenge the Champions League quarter-finals.

After the start, Barcelona seemed to be in control of the situation, constantly controlling the ball in the backcourt. But Atletico Madrid players began to run, and the running speed was very fast. The cooperation between the players was very tacit. They were all young people who could run and jump.

Guardiola felt something was wrong in his heart, "Can't fight out? Being suppressed?"

He quickly looked at Jiang Shan, who was indeed sitting on the coach's bench, "What does Jiang Shan mean, is he sure? Can this crazy running beat my team? Impossible."

It's not impossible. Pique and Puyol are passing the ball, Aguero and Royce are constantly harassing, and young Gabi is also constantly roaming in Barcelona's backcourt. The frequency of running is very high. The entire Atletico Madrid The team is moving and their figures are everywhere.

Pique was in a daze, and the ball was passed out and fell to Royce's feet. Royce moved quickly and passed to Aguero before Busquets could get closer.

Aguero rushed into Barcelona's penalty area. He had been waiting for a long time.
