Chapter 68 The Return of the King

Chapter 68 of the King's Return to Atletico Madrid's home match against Sevilla, there is another very important thing, but this is for Atletico Madrid.

That is that this is their head coach Diego Simeone's first time in the new season commanding the league on the coach's bench.

After being suspended for eight games, Simeone finally returned to the coach's seat.

All this starts with the slap Simeone hitting the fourth official in the second round of the Super Cup...

At that time, Simeone was divided by eight-game ban for multiple violations after the game. Atletico Madrid club thought the penalty was too serious, so they appealed. After some appeal, the referee committee revised the penalty decision.

The ban remains unchanged in eight games, but four of them moved from the league to the Spanish Super Cup, which means that Simeone only needs to complete four league bans to return.

This has minimized the impact on Atletico Madrid.

After five rounds of the league, Simeone released the ban and returned.

"Guys, I miss you so much!" In the locker room, Simeone made Gao Zheng laugh, and he even wondered if Simeone had watched the Chinese Spring Festival Gala...

Fortunately, everyone in the locker room was laughing at that time, and no one would be surprised what Gao Zheng was laughing at.

"Some people say that the game between Atletico Madrid and Sevilla is a strong conversation, and I want to say that what they say is a big deal! This is our home court, let's teach those arrogant bastards a lesson, let them understand that we are the defending champions!"

Simeone's agitation in the locker room is very personal, and she is full of swear words, but it is difficult to incite people's hearts.

While the players on both sides were still standing in the passage waiting to appear, Diego Simone had already entered the stadium in advance.

When he stood in front of the coach's seat and raised his hands to applaud Atletico Madrid fans in the stands, there were tsunami cheers and singing sounds like mountains and seas.

"Welcome back to the combat post, our head coach!" the live broadcast also shouted very sensational.

Gao Zheng did not see the situation at that time, but he still clearly heard the sounds of the fans and the radio in the passage. He could have imagined a scene when the king returned to his throne. Under the throne were the dark people, who knelt on the ground and raised their hands and shouted long live.

He looked at his teammates around him and found that they were completely different from those in the previous game. When he heard the cheers outside, he had a smile on his face and was full of energy. He raised his chest and looked up. He did not have any worries when facing a strong enemy. On the contrary, they were full of confidence.

Gao Zheng knew that these confidences all came from the man outside.

Although Atletico Madrid won four wins and one draw in the previous game, the process was somewhat tortuous.

Now that the head coach returns, it seems that the twists and turns will no longer exist.

This situation is somewhat similar to religious worship.

In Gao Zheng's view, Simeone is not the head coach of Atletico Madrid, but the source of the team's strength.

Gao Zheng was amazed that a head coach could do this.

After the game started, it seemed that Simeone returned to the Atletico Madrid coaching seat. Sevilla's performance was a little ruthless. However, Atletico Madrid continued to launch a fierce offensive towards Sevilla's goal amid the cheers of the home team fans.

"...In the past four seasons, Atletico Madrid has remained unbeaten against Sevilla. This is Atletico Madrid's advantage. In the past nine games against Atletico Madrid, Atletico Madrid has an absolute advantage. "He Ping introduced the strength comparison between the two teams to the Chinese fans in front of the TV to strengthen the fans' confidence.

Feng Shiyao in front of the TV couldn't help but yawn.

Recently, the recording of the new album has reached the most critical moment. The daily work is already very busy and I have to stay up late to watch football games. Neither Feng Shiyao nor Xiao Yingying told the agent Uncle Zhang, just because I was worried that Uncle Zhang would object. After all, staying up late is also harmful to the body.

"I feel that the competition is so dense..." Feng Shiyao yawned and complained. "I often watch games during this period."

"It's all a weekly double game. The match against Almeria was early Thursday morning, which was only three days after." Xiao Yingying said after taking a big sip of coffee.

It is also awkward at 2:00 a.m. It is not early, but not late. If it is late, such as three or four o'clock, you can go to bed first and then get up. If it is early, such as twelve o'clock, you can just stop going to bed and go to bed two or three o'clock after watching. But two o'clock in the morning is the type of person who wants to sleep in advance, you may be woken up by the alarm clock after falling asleep just after going to bed. If you want to stay up until you finish the game, you will be asleep again. It is four o'clock after the game. Then you won't have to sleep for a long time before you have to get up again...

"We all feel tired when watching football, but aren't we even more tired when playing football? After this game, three days later, there is also the Champions League group stage with Juventus..." Xiao Yingying and Feng Shiyao chatted together when Gao Zheng was not performing.

Atletico Madrid did not make fans wait too long. Simeone, who stood on the sidelines, seemed to give players a steady stream of power.

In the 19th minute, when Gao Zheng was taking the ball on the left, he first pretended to break through the middle, but he dunked the football to the side.

However, after he shook away the first Sevilla defensive player, he was kicked onto his calf by another Sevilla player, Kolozjezak.

Gao Zheng lost his balance and fell to the ground. The referee's whistle and the booed fans at the scene rang out at the same time.

Kolozjezak, who was fouled, was given a yellow card by the referee, and Atletico Madrid also received a free kick from the left side of the frontcourt.

After the free kick was opened into the penalty area, it caused chaos in front of Sevilla's goal. In the chaos, the football was cleared to the side. Atletico Madrid left-back Ansaldi took the ball and protected the football with his body to complete the turn. Then he passed the football to the goal before he was almost forced out of the baseline. The football fell forward, but was leapt by Sevilla's player Mbia and pushed the football out of the penalty area.

But in fact, Mbia's header clearance is very far-fetched, because the football landing point is very low. It is logical that the foot should be used to clear the ball, but if Mbia uses the foot, he will not be able to reach the football, so he can only stand up and complete the clearance by leaping and rushing to the top.

However, the football he pushed out did not fly too far, and flew directly to a little outside the penalty area and was taken by Cork.

Then Cork directly shot from a long shot there, and the football hit the blocked Sevilla central defender Nicklas Pareha's heel jumped up, just over the goalkeeper Beto's fingers, and fell after barely crossing Beto's fingertips and flew into Sevilla's goal!

"Oh! Refracted with one kick! Cork scored the first record for Atletico Madrid! Atletico Madrid took the lead just twenty minutes into the game!"

Before the end of the first half, Atletico Madrid once again used set pieces to expand its lead.

The pattern was almost exactly the same as the first goal conceded. Gao Zheng was invaded by Sevilla in the frontcourt, winning a frontcourt free kick for Atletico Madrid. After the free kick was passed into the penalty area by Gabi, Sevilla's defender Kolozjezak pushed the ball out on Arda Turan's head. But it was not far away. Miranda, who entered the penalty area this time, did not stop the ball and directly hung the ball towards the back point of the goal.

Gao Zheng was originally at the back point, but he had two Sevilla players around him who were indifferent to him, so he didn't jump at the flying football at all.

Although he did not hit the ball, he successfully covered his forward partner Griezmann who was inserted behind him. He jumped high and pushed the flying football toward the goal!

Sevilla Beto had already blocked the near corner, but he didn't expect Griezmann to push the ball towards the back corner of the goal. He could only watch the ball fly past and then jump into the back corner of the goal.

"Griezmann! He scored the first league goal after joining Atletico Madrid! Congratulations to the Frenchman! Atletico Madrid also led Sevilla with two goals in the first half! Sure enough, after Simeone stood on the sidelines, the team completed all the forms, and they never reached the strongest state before. Although they had won four games, they were actually more supported by their superb personal abilities..."

Diego Simeone in front of the coach's seat was waving her fists desperately and "boxing".
Chapter completed!
