Dick walked into the press conference after the game arrogantly.
Lucescu sat in his seat with a livid face. He really didn't want to attend this press conference, because he could almost guess how arrogant and annoying that guy Dick would look.
angry.
When Dick walked into the press conference, Lucescu had been sitting there for ten minutes. He said several times that he would leave if Dick didn't come, but he was stopped by the host. Now I see
Dick came in, and he didn't even bother to stand up. Dick didn't even look at him, nor did he shake Lucescu's post-match polite handshake. Instead, he just pulled out the chair and sat down.
.
"I have nothing to say about this game." Lucescu ended the home team coach's speech with a simple sentence. He really didn't want to say anything, because after suffering such a disastrous defeat, several more
What should the head coach say after the game if he is in the mood?
"I don't have anything to say...I'm glad to have encountered a normal football match instead of a rugby match...In such a normal match, our team performed to its own level normally. Everyone knows the situation of the match."
I have seen it all. I am very proud to lead the team to the quarterfinals for the first time in the Champions League. It is a very happy thing to be rewarded after hard work. Thanks to the players for their outstanding performance, Stam and Tu
Lahm is the best central defender in the world, I have never doubted this, and I am now looking forward to the draw for the quarter-finals, hoping to encounter a weaker team."
Although Dick said at the beginning that he had "nothing to say", he still talked a lot. The host smiled bitterly and then announced that it was time for reporters to ask questions.
"What do you think of the referee Collina's enforcement? There were almost no fouls in this game and the game went smoothly." A reporter stood up and asked.
"Colina is the best referee in the world, which is recognized. He also showed two yellow cards to our players, but these are normal wholesale. If a referee can always insist on fair penalties, then
He will be able to gain respect from more people. This is a normal situation."
"Atletico Madrid has scored so many goals even though they can qualify with a draw. Will this overdraft situation have an impact on Atletico Madrid's next games?"
"If we can't qualify, even if we don't overdraw, it's of no use. In such a complicated group, can I not let the team exert all its strength to win? Even if I lead by five goals, I can't
Galatasaray, who were worried about being outflanked, scored us six goals in the last minute."
Dick's words caused a burst of laughter from the reporters at the scene. Dick's words were a bit mocking. When Atletico Madrid scored the fifth goal, there were only ten minutes left in the game. If Galatasaray was like this
If they can come back, then they are the best team in the world.
Is there anything more painful than losing by a big score? That is to listen to your opponent's words after losing... After Dick talked a lot, Lucescu finally couldn't help it,
He walked away again.
When Atletico Madrid swept Galatasaray and won the first place in the group, in another game, Liverpool, which had been at the bottom for five rounds, finally rose to prominence in the last round. They defeated Roma with two goals at home and won the last place.
Qualifying quota!
At this point, all the quarterfinals of this Champions League have finally been produced. La Liga teams have maintained their strength in recent years. Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and Deportivo have all entered the quarterfinals, while Serie A was completely wiped out in the group stage.
, Roma and Juventus both died in the group of death, plus Parma who capsized in the qualifying round, and Lazio who was eliminated in the first group stage, so far there is no Serie A team in the quarterfinals - Milan double
Xiong did well in the UEFA Cup...
Three La Liga teams, plus Manchester United and Liverpool in the Premier League, Bayern and Bayer Leverkusen in the Bundesliga, and an unexpected dark horse Panathinaikos, form the quarterfinals of this Champions League!
Of course, Panathinaikos was able to enter the quarterfinals thanks to being in a relatively easy group. Except for Real Madrid, the other teams were not very strong. In the end, they defeated Porto and Prague.
Sparta advanced to the quarterfinals.
After this round is over, the head coaches of these eight teams are about to participate in the draw ceremony for the quarterfinals - this is also the last draw. In this draw, the upper and lower halves will be divided. The next schedule
Everything will be arranged.
As the first place in the group, Atletico Madrid will avoid Manchester United, Real Madrid and Leverkusen in this draw. However, in addition to Panathinaikos, the second place in the four groups will include
It is impossible for Liverpool to face Atletico Madrid. Whether it is Deportivo or Bayern, they are not easy opponents to deal with.
"I think we may encounter Bayern." Dick continued to chat with Irueta and Del Bosque unabashedly at the draw ceremony: "Because we defeated Bayern in the Super Cup, UEFA
It’s very possible to put us together with Bayern…”
Irueta smiled and did not answer, because after Deportivo enters the quarterfinals this time, they will definitely face a strong team, whether it is Atletico Madrid, Real Madrid or Manchester United, they will not be easy to deal with.
However, the final drawing ceremony surprised everyone.
Real Madrid and Bayern continued to meet enemies. Real Madrid immediately met their most troublesome opponent in the European arena after a relaxed group. Deportivo met Manchester United, but it was Atletico Madrid. They were extremely lucky to meet them.
Panathinaikos...
"Didn't this send me to the fucking semi-finals?" Dick couldn't help but said in Chinese, and his stunned expression made all the fans watching the draw ceremony couldn't help but laugh.
"You said before that you were very likely to meet Bayern, but you ended up meeting Panathinaikos. How do you feel about this?" After walking out of the lottery ceremony, a reporter pointed the microphone at Dick's mouth.
"Hey, did you know about my chat with Bosque and the others so soon? It seems that the lip-reading expert is really easy to hire."
Dick made a sarcastic comment at first, and then said: "This proves that UEFA is honorable and correct. They drew lots randomly, because there is no reason for us to get such care... We are lucky. Of course, we can
The teams that have entered the quarter-finals are not easy to deal with, and if we are not careful, we may even be defeated by Panathinaikos."
It was indeed good luck to meet Panathinaikos. Although being able to enter the quarterfinals has proved that they have excellent strength, it is also related to the fact that they are in a relatively weak group. If they were placed in Atletico Madrid
If they were in Group B or Group D, where Juventus was, they would have been swallowed up to the point where no bones were left.
Therefore, many people believe that Atletico Madrid is indeed very lucky. This is also the reward given by UEFA for placing Atletico Madrid in such a cruel group. Liverpool's opponents are not bad, although Leverkusen has become Group D.
First, in the eyes of many people, they still lack some foundation after all.
"Lack of foundation? Fortunately, we won't run into Leverkusen." Dick thought in his heart. Leverkusen's victory in Sanya this season is entirely a matter of luck and lack of experience. You must know that Leverkusen now
Sen is the strongest, with an excellent lineup, and Ballack who is in extremely good condition... No matter who encounters them, they will be stunned for a few times. Although they lost to Real Madrid in the final, they have to
Knowing that they had lost two championships in a row before that, their morale was low. Even so, they evened the score for a time and finally died due to Zidane's flying kick. If they meet Leverkusen now, then
That's called bad luck.
The two quarter-final games will be played in April. Before that, Atletico Madrid will play two league games, against Villarreal at home and against Barcelona away. There are eight rounds left in the league.
The thirteen point advantage they have is enough for them to proceed in the next game with ease.
"We must win this next game! Then we can send out substitutes to face Barcelona. Now we have a great advantage in the league, but we cannot make too many mistakes. If we win one more game, we will be just one step away from the league.
The championship is one step closer! At this time, we cannot give up whether it is the league or the Champions League! Do you understand?"
Dick announced his next strategy immediately after returning to Madrid. Villarreal is relatively easy to deal with because they don't have many outstanding players. Although Atletico Madrid was overdrawn in the last game,
It's more powerful, but at home, as long as you prepare better, winning the game won't be a big problem. After all, there are only eight rounds left in the league. Even if Atletico Madrid loses half of the remaining games, it won't be a big problem.
You can still win the league championship!
Atletico Madrid now has only four league games left to win the league championship. However, the Champions League knockout schedule is quite intensive. Now it can be said that it is the last relatively relaxed time after the start of the knockout rounds. After playing against Villarreal
There is a week's rest after your game. Naturally, if you can win one more game, win one more!
If Atletico Madrid goes further in the knockout round, then it is inevitable to consciously give up a few league games. However, it cannot give up like Leverkusen and even lose the league championship that they almost won - this way
It's a bit too deceiving. If he hadn't known that Leverkusen won the Sanya Championship this season, Dick might not be so vigilant. But with such an extreme example in front of him, Dick would naturally not be so cautious because of his leading points.
Dazzled by the advantages.
Three days later, Dick did not make any rotations, but basically sent all the main players to face Villarreal. Although the players' condition dropped a bit, relying on their strong strength, Atletico Madrid still won three games at home.
Bier defeated the Yellow Submarine and continued to lead the standings with a 13-point advantage. They are now three wins away from defending the league championship.
After a week's rest, Dick flew to Barcelona with the whole team. Although he brought all the main players, he sent out all the substitutes during the game. Only Stam and Gamarra partnered as central defenders.
Cena played as a defensive midfielder, and Cruz and Torres formed a forward partnership. With this lineup and Torres' goal, Atletico Madrid drew with Barcelona one to one in the away game, although the lead in the standings was only ten points.
One point, but with only six rounds left in the league, they already have one hand on the championship trophy!
"Now, it's time for us to start fighting for the Champions League." Dick said energetically at the post-match press conference.
