After being suspended for three games, Dick returned to the Champions League again, and this time he faced Galatasaray, the symbol of Turkish football known for its brutality and brutality!
Atletico Madrid has seven points and Galatasaray has five points. For Galatasaray, if they want to enter the quarterfinals of the Champions League for two consecutive years, or even go one step further in the Champions League, they must defeat Atletico Madrid. To do this - even a draw will not work, and there is no possibility of them entering the quarterfinals of the Champions League if they tie!
For Galatasaray, this game is undoubtedly a life and death battle! And Dick's words after the second round also made Galatasaray quite angry!
Although Dick excused himself with sophistry, anyone with any intelligence would know that what Dick said about the "killing football game" was a satire on the barbaric style of Turkish football!
Such a football upstart who has only made some achievements in the past year or two actually dares to use such a disdainful tone to evaluate the great Turkish football! This is absolutely intolerable!
It is said that many Galatasaray fans have already begun to take action, preparing to give Atletico Madrid and Dick a good look in the next game. On the one hand, they will vent their anger on themselves, and on the other hand, they will give Galatasaray a good look. Tasare's promotion has laid a solid foundation!
Just when Galatasaray fans began to take action, Atletico Madrid issued a fan letter warning fans not to go to Turkey to watch the game at this time.
"Atletico Madrid fans, I know what you are worried about, and I also know that you will not be afraid of any difficulties. However, some sacrifices are unnecessary and some risks can be avoided. Atletico Madrid will definitely win in the away game. Even if the stands are full of Turks, even if you can’t hear your singing, or see the Atletico Madrid flags and jerseys waving in the stands. Let’s watch it in front of the TV, and watch how our warriors defeated the barbaric football in the away game. Surrender! Believe me, even if we can't fight together on the same court, our hearts will always be connected."
This sensational article written by Dick could not stop the enthusiasm of Atletico Madrid fans. However, under the dissuasion of Atletico Madrid club, no Atletico Madrid fans went to Istanbul to watch the game!
When UEFA issued a warning to Atletico Madrid, Atletico Madrid's response was, "We just don't want anything to happen to the fans."
This time, the old Hill was loved by many people because he modified the electronic display screen at the Calderon Stadium into a screen that can receive antennas, and then invited fans with Atletico Madrid tickets to the scene for free, allowing them to watch for free. They won't feel lonely - on that day, Atletico Madrid fans will sing songs and happily go to the Calderon Stadium to watch the game just like they usually do when there is a home game.
UEFA seems to be very distressed about this, because they cannot force Atletico Madrid to let their fans watch away games, but if there is not a single Atletico Madrid fan at Galatasaray's home court, maybe Galatasaray Fans of Sare will be very happy, but both UEFA and the Turkish Football Association will find it quite shameless.
It's very simple. A club's home stadium actually makes away fans unwilling to come. How big of an impact will this have on the image of the entire country and city? Fans don't care about this, but Turkey does.
In the past, they allowed fans to provoke the visiting team fans and allowed the fans at the scene to use the atmosphere to intimidate the visiting team, which turned the Ali Samyan Stadium into a world-famous home stadium of hell. However, now Atletico Madrid has announced with such great fanfare that it will not let a single fan go to the away game.
, this kind of direct betrayal makes the whole of Turkey feel shameless. You must know that Istanbul is also a tourist city. If such an image is given to the outside world, their economy will also be greatly affected.
However, they have nothing to do with Atletico Madrid and Dick. Dick didn't say you don't go to Turkey. There are a bunch of bastards there. Atletico Madrid only suggested that the fans not go to the away game to watch the game, and it didn't force the fans not to go.
Go, but Atletico Madrid fans are unwilling to go, so who can force them?
However, for UEFA, some things that have often happened at home stadiums in Turkey in recent years have made them wary. The most important thing is the death of two Leeds United fans on the streets of Istanbul two years ago.
A huge scandal - no matter what the circumstances, if someone dies, it is a big deal!
Now that Dick and Atletico are having such a quarrel, others will have no choice but to pay attention. If a club can participate in European football competitions, but its opponents are simply unwilling to play away games, then where is the face of European competitions? How serious is the competition?
ensure?
To be honest, other clubs are not fools. For example, in this group match, Roma and Liverpool suffered a lot in away games. Now with Dick and Atletico taking the lead, as long as other clubs encounter Galatasaray in the future, they will
There is a reason not to let fans go in away games. Although Galatasaray's rough playing style and Turkish fans' intimidation of opponents can achieve temporary benefits, on the whole, they will definitely receive a lot of punishment -
—Aren’t you overbearing and unreasonable? Be careful that others don’t take you to play with you!
So when the Atletico Madrid team flew to Istanbul with the hopes of Atletico Madrid fans, UEFA also began urgent negotiations with the Turkish Football Association and Galatasaray.
Naturally, others don't know what the specific negotiations were, but the referee arranged by UEFA for this game is the most famous bald referee Collina.
From a certain perspective, UEFA sending Collina to enforce this game is also sending a message to Turkey - you can say that you can't stop the behavior of the fans, but on the field, the players deliberately used big moves to force the referee to
It is no longer allowed for the referee to make more lenient penalties - you must know that some of Galatasaray's previous rough actions were very cleverly exploiting the referee's psychology. According to strict rules, some of their actions were very
They will all get yellow cards, but if this frequency continues, they may soon have less than seven people on the field. In order to avoid this embarrassing situation, the referee has to relax some standards, and they will naturally be able to take advantage.
Now send out Collina, who is a famously strict referee who does not give anyone any face! If the Galatasaray players try this again, Collina will not mind after the game starts.
Soon he sent off one or two people to prove his iron fist!
When Dick knew that the referee of this game was Collina, he laughed.
Sometimes in this world, crybabies are really fed - Dick doesn't mind fighting his opponent fairly under a fair environment, but if the opponent wants to create a situation that is beneficial to them, then Dick
We will work hard to create a fairer situation!
After arriving in Istanbul, Atletico Madrid did not receive a welcome. When they boarded the bus to drive to their hotel, the Galatasaray fans on the street kept yelling at Atletico Madrid when they saw the Atletico Madrid logo on the bus.
Bus raised his middle finger and began to curse loudly...
Along the way, Atletico Madrid suffered abuse all the way, and the bus driver seemed to be doing it on purpose, driving wherever there were crowds of people, and driving very slowly...
In this case, Atletico Madrid players could be said to have endured the abuse all the way. Dick looked at the fans with distorted faces outside the window, and then shook his head.
"Close the curtains." Dick ordered, and the Atletico Madrid players closed the curtains one after another, not looking at the scene outside the window.
However, it was only quiet for a few minutes. Many people rushed up to the windows and kept slapping the windows with their hands. At the same time, there were also curses.
"Damn it, are you driving? It's slower than walking!" Dick cursed at the driver angrily, and the driver smiled and speeded up.
"You're so fucking mean. If you don't scold or speed up, it's the same as your club and country."
Dick smiled and said something to the driver in Chinese with the most sincere smile. The driver blinked his eyes in confusion. Seeing that Dick smiled so sincerely, he also grinned at Dick, and then
He sped up and drove towards the hotel where he was staying.
"Go to the room and settle down, then go to the conference room for a meeting! I have very important equipment to give to you." Dick said to the players mysteriously in the lobby.
The players looked at each other and walked to their rooms in confusion. Ten minutes later, all Atletico Madrid players arrived in the hotel conference room.
Dick and several assistant coaches sat in the middle of the long round table. After seeing all the players arrive, Dick smiled, then took out a large bag from under the table and placed it directly on the table.
"The stuff here won't make you perform better on the court, but it will allow you to rest better before the game."
After saying this, Dick opened the bag, and then poured all the contents in the bag onto the conference table with a crash!
Those were thirty earphones... very big ones, worn on the head, able to cover the entire ear and the area around the ear.
"Silent headphones allow you to sleep without being disturbed. It may be a little uncomfortable to wear, but it's better than having you wake up while sleeping... These guys don't do this kind of thing once or twice.
Yes, constantly interfere with your opponents before the game and let them rest so as not to affect their condition. I know that you are all players with good rules of life, so don't be disturbed by their approach."
The players suddenly realized that such an approach was necessary. You must know that in the UEFA Cup semi-finals two years ago, not only were two Leeds fans bloody on the streets of Istanbul, but before the game started, there was always a group of unknown people at the hotel where Leeds was staying.
The noise outside all night caused the Leeds players not to rest well, and eventually lost the away game without temperament...
The players began to look for headphones that fit them one after another. The ones Dick bought this time were all with different numbers and similar sizes. The players grabbed the headphones and started trying them on, laughing and joking like a group of children.
Marriner looked at Dick. Although this was just a small trick, it mobilized the morale of the players. They no longer had to worry about what tricks the opponent was playing. Such a relaxed mood would affect the players' state on the court.
——A relaxed state allows players to perform better.
"In the next game, let's perform well... We won't be at any disadvantage in this game. Even if those fans shout in the stands until their voices are hoarse, it won't have any impact on us! Perform well and put it down.
Those guys kicked him so hard that his mother didn’t even know him!”
