Chapter 389 Royal Underworld

Atletico Madrid continued to advance in the league and the Copa del Rey at the same time. They defeated Mallorca 4:0 in the quarter-finals of the Copa del Rey. It took only one game to confirm that they entered the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey.

For Mallorca, it is not easy to break into the top 8 of the Copa del Rey, and it is still Atletico Madrid, so they lowered their stance, and the goal of the first round is to "lose less but win".

As a result, Atletico Madrid failed to meet even this minimum requirement, and the suspense was lost in the second round.

The first round, which was supposed to be held in August 2011, finally started after a long wait.

Atletico Madrid challenged Real Sociedad away, and the result of this game was completely beyond everyone's expectations.

First of all, the name made Atletico Madrid more vigilant. This is another "royal faction". In this case, they should try their best to stop Atletico Madrid.

As a result, the process of the game was very simple and rough. Atletico Madrid established a 4:0 lead in the first half, and Real Sociedad was simply vulnerable.

Even Simeone and Boggs were surprised. Is the other party too weak or we are too strong?
Only 5 minutes into the second half, Caesar was replaced. The next half of the season will be very difficult. Atletico Madrid must ensure that all three lines can achieve good results.

Especially in the Europa League, the three teams of Manchester City and Dortmund are the main competitors of Atletico Madrid. Only by defeating them can Atletico Madrid win the final championship.

In particular, Manchester United was the runner-up in the Champions League last season. This season, they have been reduced to play in the Europa League. They must be full of energy and want to sweep all the Europa League opponents to prove themselves.

The Bundesliga Hornets are not easy to mess with, even Bayern were suppressed by them.The unexpected elimination of the Champions League made the Hornets fall into the Europa League. If they meet them, it will be another fierce battle.

The results of the draw have come out. Although Atletico Madrid's opponents are not the Manchester City duo or Dortmund, their strength should not be underestimated.

Lazio from Serie A also wants to win the Europa League. Atletico Madrid must beat the Serie A Blue Eagles if they want to go further.

After an away win over Real Sociedad, Atletico Madrid returned home to face Real Sociedad.

Halfway through the schedule, the opponent in the first round happened to be the opponent in the No.20 round.Not only them, but all the matches in the 20th round were exactly the same as the make-up match that just passed.

We won 4:0 in the away game, so it should be easier to go back home.

Thinking so, Atletico Madrid relaxed their vigilance, but this time, Real Sociedad gave them another surprise.

"It's the 85th minute of the game! Atletico Madrid is still 0:1 behind at home! Simeone is walking around anxiously on the sidelines! He didn't expect that the opponent he defeated by a big score two days ago would change suddenly and become so difficult."

Damn, is it Real Madrid or Real Sociedad on the opposite side? How can the offense be so smooth and the defense so solid?

Atletico Madrid lagged behind their opponents at the beginning, and they had to attack and failed to knock on the opponent's door.

"Run! Don't stop!" Watching Real Sociedad fall in his backcourt, Simeone waved his hands, signaling the players to press up quickly.

At this point in the game, how can the average team still run.

But at the request of Simeone, every player of Atletico Madrid has been strengthened physically.Even after running for 87 minutes, they were still chasing crazily as if the game had just started.

Real Sociedad didn't deliberately turn their feet in the backcourt, nor did they show off their footwork, but were forced back from the frontcourt.

Atletico Madrid's bulldozer pushed all the way from his backcourt, and he was about to push it to the opponent's goal.

The central defender Gonzalez almost made a mistake. He stopped the ball and stopped it. Fortunately, Costa did not react, and Gonzalez poked the ball out.

However, the thrill was not over yet, Gonzalez stabbed crookedly, and the ball was given between his teammates and Caesar.

One-half of the ball is no different from passing it directly to Caesar's feet.

With everyone in Calderon watching, Caesar sprinted forward and blocked the ball just before his opponent.

"Atletico Madrid succeeded in stealing the ball in the backcourt! Caesar went all the way into the penalty area!"

Gonzalez was the last defender, and the one who made the direct turnover.Feeling ashamed, he rushed towards Caesar desperately, trying to block the opponent's shot with his body.

Caesar was not greedy for credit, he immediately passed the ball across and gave it to Costa who was in a better position.

"Costa scored an empty goal! The score became 1:1!"

Depressed for the whole game, and finally equalized the score, Costa looked very excited and rushed towards Caesar.

"Don't worry! There's still time! Let's overtake the score!" Caesar avoided Costa's hug, drilled into the goal and fished out the ball.

Costa was taken aback, then nodded vigorously: "Yes, there is still time!"

Gonzalez stared blankly as the two sent the ball back to midfield. They didn't want to win, did they?

That's right, not only them, others, even central defender Godin, are thinking about how to use the last time to fight back.

Under their aura of coercion, Real Sociedad quickly gave up the ball and retreated to the backcourt, preparing to defend the tie.

"Hit it with a header! Go up to me!" Simeone pointed at Godin and Dominguez. Since the opponent wants to defend, we will make them unable to defend!
"Atletico Madrid launched a fierce attack! They frequently kicked the ball from the side! Want to score one with a header!"

Both Simeone and the opponent's coach looked at the stadium nervously. When the 3-minute stoppage time came out, Simeone complained loudly that there was too little time, while the Real Sociedad coach complained that too much time was given.

There is no such dispute between players, 3 minutes is 3 minutes, and there is a final chance to overtake.

"Caesar receives the ball from the wing!"

He looked up and observed, whether it was Real Sociedad or Atletico Madrid players, they were all crowded in the penalty area, waiting for his pass.

The position in front of the penalty area was somewhat empty, and Caesar saw an opportunity to hit the goal directly from there.

As soon as he said it, Caesar dropped his left shoulder and pretended to break through.

Real Sociedad full-back Kadamuno was really fooled. When he turned around, Caesar disappeared in an instant.

"Caesar cuts in! Kadamuno has been tricked!"

Oops!

The defensive midfielder Ilayaramendi jumped out to make up the defense, but was swayed away by a simple rhythm change by Caesar.

The striker Griezmann resisted Caesar, trying to stretch his legs to steal the ball.As a result, Caesar squeezed the thin Griezmann away as soon as he tried his best.

Throwing away the two of them, the front was empty, and Caesar shot directly into the far corner.

The goalkeeper of the visiting team, Bravo, tried his best to reach for the ball, but he was not tall enough to catch the ball.

"The goal is scored!! Caesar overtook the score at the last moment! Atletico Madrid defeated Real Sociedad 2:1!!"

Griezmann lying on the ground looked disappointed. He tried hard enough, but he still couldn't stop the German.
