Inter Milan fans' actions in excitement will definitely be punished - although they did not target Atletico Madrid players, throwing debris and entering the stadium will definitely be punished, UEFA
Officials said that they might penalize Inter Milan for a 0-3 home defeat. However, this has nothing to do with Atletico Madrid, because they were the ones who advanced, not Inter Milan...
"Inter Milan didn't look like a threat at all. Even in the first 70 minutes without scoring, I never thought we wouldn't be able to advance... They played too conservatively. No matter how strong a team is, it still needs outstanding players.
I hope Inter Milan can get an excellent head coach next... I admire Mr. Moratti's investment in football, but sometimes he seems too anxious. A calmer approach will make his investment appear...
More efficient.”
At the post-match press conference, Dick said quite confidently - this press conference was a one-man show for him. Tardelli and his players were still trapped in the locker room, so only Dick came to the press conference.
, of course, in European competitions, the club head coach must attend the press conference, and for this reason he needs to hold another press conference one day later - Mr. Tardelli is really miserable.
A one-man show, Dick seems a bit boastful. What he said just now can easily be interpreted as Dick's overture to Moratti. After all, for current coaches, leading Inter Milan, a black hole of stars, to rise,
That's the most attractive thing, not to mention that Dick didn't have any foundation before. Even if he led Atletico Madrid well, he lacked sustained achievements after all. That kind of top team would not easily ask him to be the head coach.
The only positions that are better than Atletico Madrid are the head coaching positions of those top giants. If Dick wants to climb up, the best position is Inter Milan, a traditional giant with a history. However, this giant also has a
The president likes to do things based on his own interests. The current chaos of Inter Milan will definitely be reorganized next season. Dick led the team to defeat Inter Milan beautifully. With Moratti's character, it is really
It is very likely that Dick will be hired as the head coach of Inter Milan with a high salary.
So when Dick brought the Atletico Madrid team back to Spain from Italy, news began to spread that Dick might go to Italy to coach Inter Milan before the start of next season. Naturally, Atletico fans would not believe such rumors.
, however, this kind of rumor does not seem to be used by the opponent to disrupt Atletico Madrid's preparations - after all, if the rumor is to be spread, the rumor should be effective before Atletico Madrid plays against Inter Milan. The topic that comes out now... said
Maybe it's not a rumor...
Dick didn't expect that he just said a few words about the problems that Inter Milan is facing now, and as a result, such rumors started to spread. What's interesting is that Inter Milan president Moratti, who just held a club-wide meeting, also said in an interview
He said it very ambiguously: "Dick is a very young and very outstanding head coach. Atletico Madrid is very lucky to have him... but now we have Prandelli, who is also a very top head coach, so
We are not considering such an issue right now."
I won’t consider it now… but will I have to consider it after the season is over?
Dick felt a little troubled. He couldn't take the initiative to clarify this kind of thing. The more you clarify, the more people think you are evil. If you don't clarify, others will think you are acquiescing - these are the two ends in the legend.
It's blocked.
So he could only choose to passively accept the move - when a reporter came to interview him, he naturally denied that he had any agreement with Inter Milan, but he would not keep his words - the football circle is
In this way, you don't know when you will go to a certain club. You must know that very few people would do what Dick did before, unabashedly hating Barcelona. But after all, it was because of the grudges between Dick and Dick.
Not many people think there is anything wrong with Dick's behavior. At most, they think that Dick is a little too petty, and Inter Milan and Dick have no grudges. If they want to show that they have nothing to do with each other,
And if you criticize the other party, you are not being petty, but you are a mad dog...
"Inter Milan is a top club, and everyone wants to coach in such a team. But I am very happy now at Atletico Madrid, and I have not had any contact with Inter Milan. I am a professional head coach.
I will work for Atletico Madrid during the contract period, there is no doubt about it."
Such a statement cannot silence everyone, but it can make Dick feel more comfortable. At least Atletico Madrid will not have any suspicion about him because of this. As he said, his contract is still with him.
, unless when he wants to go to other clubs, and other clubs are willing to buy out the liquidated damages in his contract, otherwise Atletico Madrid will not let go, and he will not be able to go anywhere.
After entering the quarter-finals, Atletico Madrid ushered in another round of draws - this time in the UEFA Cup quarter-finals, La Liga surprisingly occupied five seats. In addition to Atletico Madrid, Rayo Vallecano and Celta Barcelona
and Alaves all defeated their opponents to enter the quarterfinals. Liverpool in the Premier League is quite strong as the only team. Although Serie A lost Inter Milan, Roma and Parma also entered the quarterfinals-all the quarterfinals were exactly the same.
Being divided among teams from the three major leagues is a very rare thing.
Atletico Madrid drew another Serie A team Parma in the draw, Liverpool met Alaves, Rayo Vallecano met Roma...Barcelona will compete with Celta Vigo in the same league. If they play well,
If it goes a little further, there may be a situation where the top four are all La Liga teams...Spanish fans certainly hope that such a scene will happen.
The quarter-finals will be played on March 9th and March 16th. The other opponents in Atletico Madrid's half are Rayo Vallecano and Roma. If Atletico Madrid can advance, then they
The opponent will be the winner between Rayo Vallecano and Roma.
This draw result is also good for Atletico Madrid. After all, among their remaining two strongest opponents, Liverpool and Barcelona happen to be in the other half of the zone. Although Parma is not easy to beat, it is better than meeting them early.
It is much better to meet these two strong opponents - of course, Roma, which currently has a huge advantage at the top of the Serie A rankings, is also a strong opponent.
After returning from Italy, Atletico Madrid's recent good form came to an end. They lost 1 to 2 away to Athletic Bilbao in the 24th round of the league, although Baraja scored for Atletico Madrid in the game.
One goal, but Athletic Bilbao relied on excellent running and tenacious style to win. In just one week, the top two teams from Madrid both lost to Athletic Bilbao.
The feet of this team from Basque are enough to prove that despite their poor performance this season, they still have the strength and foundation to defeat all strong teams!
To a certain extent, this is a traditional force. Athletic Bilbao is so stubborn in not using any players of non-Basque descent. Although it has suppressed their results to a large extent, it has also made their performance worse.
Tradition becomes stronger.
Losing this game, Atletico Madrid fans were a little regretful. After all, they had already won seven games in a row. If they could continue, they might be able to hit the record of their city rivals' fifteen-game winning streak. Unfortunately, this loss ruined the record.
everything...
However, Atletico Madrid fans are also relieved because in another round of the league, their biggest rival Real Madrid did not win. In the away game, they played a 2-2 draw with Deportivo La Coruna. Atletico Madrid is still in the standings.
Lead - just from a two-point lead to a one-point lead...
Dick also breathed a sigh of relief at this result. He didn't want to see Real Madrid seize the opportunity to overtake the score because of the continuous decline in competition. It's okay now, just chasing one point, and there is only one left in the league.
Fourteen rounds later, this point is still very likely to play a huge role at the end of the season.
"The strength of this game is normal. Because we have been playing continuously, we are very overdrawn, and Real Madrid has not won. We are still first in the league...so I won't pursue anything, but the next round of the league will be thousands of times."
Don’t let this happen again. Take a good rest this week, build up your strength, and then kill Racing Santander in the next round! Let those guys who think our condition has begun to decline should be taken by surprise!”
The next opponent is Racing Santander, which is also more beneficial to Dick - Racing Santander's performance this season is not very good, and the ranking is now second to last, although they will definitely work hard to avoid relegation.
, but what they can do is nothing more than their ability to fight...Atletico Madrid's main players may not fight too hard, but their substitutes...it is time to play their role now.
Dick sent out all the substitutes in this game. Although the strength of these substitutes is inferior to that of the main players, they know that this is the time when they can contribute, and like Correa, Torres, and Baono
Players like Vic are very good, and there is no problem with their physical fitness, so in this game, Atletico Madrid's substitutes fought a bloody battle with Racing Santander...
Atletico Madrid's players failed to score a goal within 90 minutes at home. Racing Santander's players scored the only goal in the game. However, it was Atletico Madrid who won the game - Santander.
Tander Racing defender Ulrich Ramos unluckily scored an own goal in the 16th minute of the game, which allowed Atletico Madrid to score three points at home in a lucky way.
Real Madrid suffered two consecutive draws - they once again played a score of 2-2 at home - of course it is not a shame to draw 2-2 with Barcelona, but this draw allowed Atletico Madrid to lose its lead.
Expanded to three points!
In these two rounds of the league, Atletico Madrid's performance has dropped, with one loss and one win, but Real Madrid has suffered two consecutive draws - this is undoubtedly a great encouragement to Atletico Madrid's morale, even if Real Madrid will be in the league next
There are not many strong teams they have encountered anymore, and Atletico Madrid still have to climb over the three mountains of Deportivo La Coruna, Barcelona and Real Madrid. However, their current advantage, a real three-point advantage, is 4 to 2 at home.
Advantage to win!
This means that in the remaining games, even if Atletico Madrid loses to Real Madrid by a goal in the away game, it will get the same number of points as Real Madrid in the remaining leagues. Atletico Madrid can also rely on the mutual victory-defeat relationship.
Advantage, overpowering Real Madrid and winning the league championship this season!
A three-point advantage, this is a real advantage! Not some illusory advantage like the schedule...
There are still thirteen rounds left in the league, but the balance of victory throughout the season has begun to tilt towards Atletico Madrid...
