Sevilla was relegated to the Second Division in the season when Dick put out the fire, but soon, after one season, they came back from the Second Division. As a newly promoted team this season, their results were pretty good, with ten
In the four rounds of the league, they have five wins, five draws and four losses, ranking in the middle. This team that Maradona once played for also had glory in La Liga. The 1940s and 1950s were the most glorious period in their history. They won one
League champion and four league runners-up, and won the only three King's Cup championships so far. However, they began to have ups and downs after entering the 1960s, but at least they are located in the fourth largest city in Spain, with
With such a foundation, even if Sevilla's performance is worse, it won't be much worse.
The level of football in Spain as a whole actually has a lot to do with the economic and traditional levels of various regions in Spain. Madrid is the capital of Spain, so Real Madrid's level is extremely high, and Atletico Madrid's strength is not bad either - in fact.
Before Cruyff took charge of Barcelona, Barcelona only had ten league championships in total. At that time, Atletico Madrid had eight league championships. In terms of overall honors, it was not too far behind Barcelona.
After Ruyfe took over, he ushered in the era of the Dream Team, and Atletico Madrid was directly abandoned by Barcelona.
And those autonomous regions with a large number of ethnic minorities also have extremely high football standards. Barcelona is the representative of the Catalans, and Athletic Bilbao is the representative of the Basques. Needless to say, Barcelona has the same level.
Extremely high, they now have eight league championships, and are also the La Liga team that has won the most Copa del Rey. At the same time, like Real Madrid and Barcelona, they have never been relegated since the establishment of La Liga.
The traditional strong teams in the Spanish League all have one characteristic, and that is strong local support. Teams in big cities will naturally perform better. Barcelona and Athletic Bilbao have become totem symbols of the region.
With the background of being the fourth largest city in Spain, even if Seville occasionally suffers, it won't get much better.
It's just that no matter how poorly they performed after returning to La Liga, after all, the relegation also severely damaged their vitality, and the main lineup was scattered. The current lineup is the result of playing in La Liga and returning to La Liga.
They were put together in two summers, so naturally they can't compare with Atletico Madrid - Historically, Atletico Madrid was not as good as Sevilla. After being relegated, they actually stayed in Sevilla for two years, but it's different now. Success in relegation allowed
They have retained most of their main players, and with Dick's signings, Atletico Madrid is now a standard first-tier team. Although they lost in the last round, after a week's rest, Atletico Madrid's lineup has quickly improved.
The combat effectiveness was restored.
Jardel has scored fifteen goals in the fifteen rounds of La Liga this season - an average goal rate of one goal per game is enough to be extremely amazing. Jardel has been in quite good form recently, and Dick naturally
Will not miss this opportunity, the recent tactics are all based around Jader, and win through his goals - this is also the most effective way to grab points.
Baraja's goal in the second half was the icing on the cake. Atletico Madrid defeated Sevilla 2-0, which further expanded their advantage in the standings. Deportivo La Coruna capsized in the gutter this round, and they lost a small away goal.
The Spaniard was five points behind Atletico Madrid and fell to fourth place. The second and third places were Alaves and Real Betis, both of whom had four points less than Atletico Madrid.
Atletico Madrid welcomed Galatasaray at home with full confidence - for them, after defeating Liverpool away in the first round, they were full of confidence in defeating Galatasaray.
Dick did not underestimate Galatasaray. You must know that as Turkey's number one giant, Galatasaray owns almost half of the Turkish national team, and the Turkish national team is now at its peak. In next year's World Cup
, they will win the third place in the World Cup!
They have made rapid progress in recent years, but Dick is not as optimistic as the fans.
However, even he did not expect that Galatasaray would perform so well in the first half of this game!
From the beginning of the game, Atletico Madrid had the upper hand. However, five minutes after the start of the game, Galatasaray unexpectedly took the lead through a corner kick. Yumit shot a shot for Galata in the melee in front of the goal.
Sary scored the first goal!
In the next game, Atletico Madrid still had the advantage, but Galatasaray continued to cause trouble for Atletico Madrid through fierce pressing and high-flying tactics. Their running was very active and the physical confrontation was also very fierce.
, constantly blocking Atletico Madrid's offense with fouls, and they also made a lot of small moves. Perhaps because of too many small moves, the referee awarded some fouls, but also let some go...
What annoys Dick the most is that every time the Turks commit a foul, they will surround the referee endlessly to defend themselves, and every time Atletico Madrid commits a foul, they will also surround the referee to express how wronged they are - in a daze.
Dick thought he had met Barcelona in the Guardiola era...
"These liars, bastards, bastards!"
When Molina struggled to save Mitte's header, but was hit by the opponent's midfielder Flukin and conceded another goal, Dick could no longer hold back the anger in his heart and began to roar,
Then he yelled at the fourth official: "Have you seen it! At least a dozen fouls! So many over-the-range movements! Is this how you let the Turks move? This is not a fucking game.
, it’s wrestling!”
"Mr. Dick, please watch your words..." the fourth official said to Dick extremely unhappy.
"Fuck it, the Roma suffered enough interference at Galatasaray's home court in the last game, and the interference we received this time was even worse! This is our home court, are you the referees?
When a team is used to being aggressive, will they tolerate their actions? It’s okay to do this! Don’t think that my players are all softies!”
After yelling this sentence, Dick immediately turned around and roared towards the court: "Next time they get the ball, whoever is getting the ball, get their fucking legs broken!"
Dick's roar covered the entire stadium, and the referee was also alerted - the Turks were celebrating now, so he was relatively free, and he ran over immediately.
"Mr. Dick, what were you talking about just now?"
"What am I talking about? I am making arrangements according to your penalty standards! Since many of the Turks' big moves will not be punished, then I will not let my players suffer! Guys, do you hear that?
If they dare to turn around and protect the ball in front of you, I'll kick their ankles from behind! The worst is that I won't go to Turkey, and I'll give up on that game!" Dick yelled with foaming at the mouth.
Isn't it just playing rogue? I can play it too! Then you will say that you are afraid that my players will be physically harmed in Turkey - weren't two Leeds United fans stabbed to death by Turkish fans in 2000?
The referee's temper was a bit soft, otherwise he would not have been frightened by Galatasaray's actions. When Dick said this, he swallowed: "You will be punished for doing this..."
"That's better than losing this game! Look at how many opportunities we missed because of their big moves! We can't follow the rules and get punished, and they don't follow the rules and get benefits? No matter where.
That doesn't make sense!" Dick shouted angrily.
"Okay, Mr. Dick, I will pay attention to this next. I may have made some mistakes before." The referee said after thinking for a while.
Dick smiled proudly, he didn't expect the referee to be so knowledgeable...
"But because of your behavior just now, I have to show you a red card." The referee's next words made Dick's smile freeze, and then Dick looked at the referee who took out the red card for him and said nothing.
The hair was sent back.
"Oh oh oh! What happened on the sidelines? Atletico Madrid's coach Dick received a yellow card! It seems that he was sent off because he expressed dissatisfaction with the referee just now... Atletico Madrid is in danger now.
They were already two goals behind, and now Dick has received a red card! Without the head coach, how will Atletico Madrid counterattack next?"
"Dick was a little too impulsive. It seems that he must have said something that he shouldn't have said on the sidelines. This game is very dangerous for Atletico Madrid!"
"However, some of the referee's decisions just now are indeed questionable. He missed some of Galatasaray's bigger moves, such as the goal just now and Blatter's tackle on Belleron in the midfield.
The movement of the ball was highly suspected of foul play. He almost used his hands and feet to steal the ball from Belleron. This caught Atletico Madrid's defense off guard, and Galatasaray directly counterattacked before losing the second.
Damn it, no wonder Dick is so angry..."
"Do you know why I got angry? Because according to the situation in the first half, we are playing with our hands and feet tied... Although I have received a red card now, the referee should understand that he was
What kind of mistake did they make... In the second half, we followed the tactics we arranged before and attacked boldly. If they dare to make any big move, just fall to the ground and pretend to be dead! Damn it, isn't it just acting? You guys too
I can perform! If we get rid of a few of them, it won't be too difficult for us to win this game. With these two victories, even if I am suspended next time, it will not affect our qualifying for the group.
!Those Turks are so mean!”
Dick told the players in the locker room that his intention was to put pressure on the referee, but who knew that the referee showed him a red card. If he was suspended for the next few games, Atletico Madrid would be in trouble.
The Champions League group stage is not very favorable. After all, Atletico Madrid will have two consecutive games against Roma, which is not an easy opponent to deal with.
After the start of the second half, Atletico Madrid players launched a fierce attack. Galatasaray also wanted to use big moves to defend, but the referee's penalty was obviously much harsher. After receiving three consecutive yellow cards,
Galatasaray's players began to curb their big moves...
Torres, who came on as a substitute, received Jorgensen's volley pass in the penalty area and scored the ball into Galatasaray's goal, regaining a point for Atletico Madrid. Then Atletico Madrid's attack began to become more fierce.
Finally, in the 75th minute, Belleron passed the ball in the air. Torres directly padded the ball in front of the goal. Jardel, who was pushing forward, was pulled by the opponent's defender and still scored the ball into the dead center of the goal!
Two to two! Atletico Madrid equalized the score after falling behind by two goals! Looking at their current momentum, there is no problem in winning this game!
However, Galatasaray then began to fight hard against Atletico Madrid's offense. They paid the price of two red cards and kept the tie until the end!
