Chapter 336: If you have the ability, you go to provoke Li
Atletico Madrid's schedule is intensive. After finishing this Champions League play-off round, they will soon usher in the second round of La Liga.
Therefore, when victory is certain, Atletico Madrid will focus mainly on defense, and once it gets the ball, it will also slow down the offensive rhythm.
Time is passing quickly.
Simeone used substitutions to waste time.
In the 42nd minute of the second half, Li Chuanqi was replaced by Garcia.
Li Chuanqi came off the field to the applause of Atletico Madrid fans, and Garcia gave him a big hug.
The commentator of Lyon Sports Station said: "Atletico Madrid's three goals are all related to Li. The goals of Villa and Costa all came from supplementary shots. And their supplementary shots were all shots from Li, which caused Anthony
.López lets go.
This fully illustrates Li’s core position in Atletico Madrid’s offensive system!”
In the second minute of stoppage time, there was another climax on the field!
Atletico Madrid got a corner kick opportunity, Juanfran sent the football into the penalty area, and Godin, the backbone of the defense, leaped high and hit the goal with a beautiful flick of his head in the penalty area!
The football flew into the goal from the upper left corner of the goal!
Four to one!
Atletico Madrid completely sealed the victory!
After five minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle to end the game!
The commentator of Madrid Sports Station said loudly: "Four to one! Atletico Madrid defeated Lyon at the Olympic Garden Stadium, laying a solid foundation for entering the main match!
Atletico Madrid blossomed tonight, four goals were completed by four players, which fully shows that Atletico Madrid's offense is terrible!
With two consecutive wins in four days, Atletico Madrid has made a good start to the new season!"
At the post-match press conference, reporters asked Simeone why Costa was not included in the starting lineup.
Simeone replied calmly: "This is a normal rotation. Diego played the entire game three days ago, so we enter the rotation. I will not disrupt our arrangement because of some media remarks!"
As for how the media would report this matter, Simeone did not consider it. It was not something he wanted to consider.
When talking about the second leg, Simeone said: "We do have an advantage, this is undeniable, but we will take the second leg seriously.
As for advancing to the main draw...that is a natural result."
Mixed interview area.
Atletico Madrid stars are being interviewed by the media.
Villa said: "I am very grateful to Mr. Simeone for his trust in me. It is very important to me to score consecutive goals. Atletico Madrid's forwards are full of talents. If you want to get a chance to play, you must seize the opportunity to score!"
Li Chuanqi and Costa scored consecutive goals, putting a lot of pressure on him. In addition, with Garcia waiting behind him and watching eagerly, Villa was under great pressure.
Costa answered the reporter about his not being in the starting lineup: "Three days ago, after the game, I made a joke with the reporter, but I didn't expect it to cause an uproar.
If I make a joke again now, will it cause another uproar?"
The reporters laughed and said that it was only done by a few media outlets and they would not do that.
Costa said: "As for me not being able to enter the starting lineup, you should actually ask the coach, he arranged this!"
The reporters did not let him go and asked him to express his feelings.
"I don't have any feelings. Whether I am a starter or a substitute, as long as I can contribute to the team, it is enough for me!"
The reporter asked Li Chuanqi the most about his goal, asking him why he did not move towards the goal but outside the penalty area.
"Libya has already gone to fight for it. There is no point in me going there!"
Li Chuanqi said: "Anthony Lopez either held the football in his hands or used his fist to knock the football out of the penalty area. Under this judgment, I moved outside the penalty area!
I was lucky, he really hit the football out of the penalty area with his fist, and the football was not far away from me."
Super premonitions are something mysterious and cannot be explained clearly, and Li Chuanqi is not prepared to tell the media.
…
Atletico Madrid returned to Madrid with a score of 4-1 and immediately began preparations for La Liga.
Mundo Deportivo commented on the Champions League play-off match: "We said three days ago that Costa would not be able to get a starting chance against Lyon. Facts have proved that our guess was correct!
Costa was indeed not in the starting lineup last night!
This is Simeone punishing Costa, punishing him for speaking his mind in front of the media!
Due to pressure from the media, Simeone asked Costa to come on as a substitute in the second half.
Costa, who was holding back his anger, countered Simeone with a goal!
Costa didn't hug Simeone after scoring!
In an interview after the game, Costa said, ‘Whether I am a starter or a substitute, as long as I can contribute to the team, that is enough for me!’!
His words were filled with helplessness.
As the hero who won the King's Cup last season, Costa has begun to be marginalized.
We now understand why 'Tiger' Falcao left Atletico Madrid, because even if he stayed at Atletico Madrid, he would still be marginalized!
So Falcao is wise and Costa should consider another job."
Costa took the World Sports newspaper and looked at this review report. He was dumbfounded. How can it be interpreted like this?!
Nima, are these guys relying on me?
If you have the ability, go and provoke Li, why are you relying on me?
Li is more famous. If you criticize and criticize him, you will definitely attract more attention!
Of course Simeone believed in his players and ignored the Mundo Deportivo report.
Mundo Deportivo's article did not affect Atletico Madrid's locker room. Everyone knows what kind of media Mundo Deportivo is, that is, it is the mouthpiece of Barcelona.
All teams and players that pose a threat to Barcelona will be attacked by them.
Godin even joked to Costa: "Diego, you should be happy, it shows that they think you are a threat to Barcelona!"
After Costa heard this, he happily asked: "Really? Is that so?"
Godin smiled and said: "How about you ask David!"
Costa turned his attention to Villa, who nodded awkwardly.
Costa laughed happily.
…
AS reported this matter fairly: "Regarding the fact that Costa was not included in the starting lineup for the match between Atletico Madrid and Lyon, Simeone made it very clear at the post-match press conference that this was a normal rotation.
The pre-match arrangements will not be disrupted by the remarks of some media.
There is no problem between Lee and Costa. After Costa scored, he hugged Lee, shattering the remarks of some media!
As for what some media said, Costa did not hug Simeone after scoring a goal. Do players have to hug the coach after scoring a goal?
If he doesn't hug the coach, does that mean he has a conflict with the coach?
According to this logic, almost all players have conflicts with the coach!
Messi hugs his coach every time he scores a goal?
If not, does that mean there is a conflict between Messi and the coach?"
