Chapter 391: Simeone's Atletico Madrid
The middle of the week is the FA Cup match. Charlotte was very lucky to meet Sheffield United, the only remaining English Championship team in the FA Cup.Of course, in fact, if the FA Cup is now counting his own saints, there are actually only four teams in total.

Facing such an opponent, Charlotte naturally sent all the substitutes. After all, his main battlefield is in the league and the Champions League.Now the league champions are in the leading position, and they have also reached the semi-finals in the Champions League, so it is naturally not important compared to the FA Cup.

But the opponent's strength is indeed not strong. Even if Charlotte gave the opponent a chance, Sheffield United did not have a big upset. The game finally won the victory with the Saints leading the opponent by three goals.

In this way, they have entered the FA Cup final this season, and the opponent they need to face is the old rival Arsenal.Although Wenger's team may not be able to secure a place in the Champions League this season, they have reached the final of the FA Cup. They are likely to bet heavily on the FA Cup to end the embarrassment of not having a title for many years.

On Saturday, April NO.19, Charlotte's team returned to the league. Their opponent in this round is Aston Villa, a team that currently has nothing to desire.They only have a theoretical possibility of relegation, unless they lose their remaining four games and the six teams behind them perform well at the same time.

Considering that it will be the Champions League game in the middle of next week, Charlotte still made some adjustments.

Higuain, Aubameyang, Griezmann, Eriksson, Pogba, Schneiderlin, these generals are hidden by him, but even the remaining teams face Aston Villa. is advantageous.

Especially on the trident of Lukaku, Rodriguez and Sterling, Charlotte doesn't have to worry about scoring goals at all, plus he assigned tasks to Ter Stegen and Reina this season , The veteran is mainly responsible for the Champions League games, and Ter Stegen mainly faces the league, so he doesn't have to worry about conceding goals.

Such a rotation lineup easily defeated the opponent [-]-[-] at the Villa Park Stadium, and Charlotte's team immediately started to go to Spain again.

Their opponent in this round of the Champions League is Spain's strong team, Atletico Madrid, known as Spain's third giant. The first round of the game is an away game, and the second round is played at home.

The moment before departure, Charlotte also received information about other games in the league.Liverpool once again defeated Norwich with a score of [-] to [-]. While winning a thrilling victory, they also pressed Southampton step by step.Manchester City also quickly came out of the last round of defeat. They killed West Bromwich Albion, a relegation team, and they performed well.However...there are three rounds left in the league, and they are still [-] points away from Southampton, so even if Blue Moon wins, they can only helplessly announce that their championship this season is over, and their next task is to stabilize the European Union. Fighting qualifications, don't be dragged into the water by Arsenal behind.

Chelsea had an upset this round. They lost [-]-[-] to the relegation team Sunderland at Stamford Bridge. Mourinho's home court was broken by the black cats.

In this way, many media have said that the league championship this season is only a matter between Liverpool and Southampton, and Chelsea only has a theoretical possibility.After chasing seven points in three games, the only remaining possibility for them to win the championship is to win all the remaining games and expect Liverpool and Southampton to lose all.Because even with the same score, they can't compete with these two opponents. Who told them that they only have a goal difference of 41, while Liverpool's goal difference is 52, and Southampton's is a terrifying 81.

This makes people have to sigh that the Saints' firepower this season is even more fierce than last season, and they have also broken many records.For example, they broke Chelsea's record for the most league goals in a single season. Before that, the Blues scored 2009 goals in the league in the 2010-103 season, but Southampton has scored 105 goals so far this season.At the same time, the Saints have scored 160 goals in all competitions, which also created the record for the most goals scored on four fronts in a single season in the Premier League.

Some media close to Charlotte even wrote in the report: "At the beginning of the season, some people said that Charlotte sold Sturridge, Lallana and Icardi. This season, the Saints will also face the difficulty of scoring goals. Question, at the same time, their task this season should be to avoid relegation, and the result? Southampton broke multiple scoring records. What happened to these people? They are still the crazy Saints team!"

Even the headline on the front page of this issue of the newspaper is called "Strong Slap in the Face!! No Explanation!!"

Southampton, who came to Madrid, did not rent the stadium, but just rested directly in the hotel. In the afternoon, I went to the Calderon Stadium, the stadium of Atlético de Madrid, for pre-match familiarization and some simple training. Tomorrow afternoon The game is on.

Now the head coach of Atletico Madrid is Diego Simeone, a player of their former team. I still know this "fierce" Argentine coach Charlotte very well. After all, he has caused a whirlwind in Atletico Madrid.

If Charlotte remembers correctly, this season's Champions League final should be a city battle between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid, but now it's only the semi-finals, and Charlotte doesn't want to let the opponent enter the final so easily.

In the locker room before the game, Charlotte gathered all the players together after talking about tactics: "What we need to pay attention to is their center Diego Costa. This Brazilian shooter has very personal characteristics. He not only shoots The key is that he is a master of psychological tactics on the field. The method he often uses is to use language, physical conflict and other means to stimulate his opponent, so as to make the opponent lose his mind, judge and even eat cards. The consequences. So our midfielders must pay attention to this! I don’t want to see who fell into his trap in this game, so you must pay attention to this.”

"Diego Costa is very good on the pitch besides his off-court moves. He's not a very creative player, but he's a very good opportunity guy who uses everything to score. , don't give him any chances, because a small chance is taken by him and it will turn into a goal."

"We all know that Atlético de Madrid is rich in strikers. The previous Spanish golden boy Torres, Argentine striker Aguero, and Falcao who killed the Quartet in the previous two seasons! These are the third giants of Spain in the European arena over the years. The role of daimyo, I think you must be familiar with them. But what I want to say is that these players have left Atletico Madrid now, but Atletico Madrid still has this Diego Costa!!"

"Diego Costa has scored 25 goals in the league so far, second only to Ronaldo and Messi, and even in the Champions League he has scored six goals. Well, he is not as good as our Yi Guain!"

Charlotte compares Diego Costa directly to Torres, Aguero and Falcao, and the Saints players have a very clear understanding of this very distinctive Brazilian striker.As for Charlotte's last sentence, although he was telling the truth, there was a lot of joking in it.

"At the same time in the midfield we also need to pay attention to their Koke, this is their Koke, not our team-mate Jack Koke. Atletico Madrid's No. 33 midfielder has played an important role in their team this season. Role, currently played [-] times in the league but scored six goals and thirteen assists, second only to Argentine 'Angel' Di Maria in La Liga's assist list!"

There are also Gabi, Garcia, Turan, Juan Forlan and Belgian goalkeeper Courtois on loan from Chelsea. Charlotte roughly gives the players the characteristics and abilities of each important player in Atletico Madrid. Let me introduce it. On this point, Charlotte has done a good job of preparation.

One is because he really knows Simeone’s Atletico Madrid very well, and the other is because Charlotte immediately sent his assistant Ajestaran to Spain after learning that his Champions League opponent is Atletico Madrid. Come to collect intelligence and information, Ajestaran is a Spaniard, and he is the person who knows the best of all Charlotte's assistants for the La Liga team.

In this way, the first leg of this season's Champions League semi-finals began.

Atletico Madrid fans are happy this season. Although their favorite Colombian center Falcao has left, the Tigers have not gone to their city rivals Real Madrid. At the same time, another striker in their camp, Costa It is also the backbone of the team's striker.

The most important thing is that they have reached the semi-finals of the Champions League this season. In the league, they are currently four points ahead of Barcelona and occupy the first place in the league standings. They are likely to stabilize the La Liga championship this season!
You must know that the champions of La Liga in recent years have always been the confrontation between Real Madrid and Barcelona. At present, no team can win the championship from these two giants, not to mention the championship, even in recent years. The teams other than these two Big Macs can get the runner-up in the league, which shows how strong their dominance over La Liga is.

However, Atletico Madrid is likely to become the first team to break the control of the Western Super League duo over La Liga in recent years, so before the game officially started, the Calderon Stadium was filled with the singing of Atletico Madrid fans , They hope that the team can win the league championship this season and at the same time reach the Champions League final, so this feeling... is really beautiful.
