The first tumor in football

Chapter 189: Atletico Madrid
Although Sevilla is a strong team in La Liga and has always maintained a top five ranking in the Spanish La Liga, they are more well-known for their nickname, the King of the Europa League.

This team is also well-known around the world, but it is not a top team after all, and there are no big-name stars in the team, so fans don’t know much about Sevilla players.

But after hearing what Zhan Jun said, the fans instantly became excited and started to look up information.

Fan Zhiyi and Zhan Jun also introduced Sevilla players in the live broadcast room.

"This goalkeeper of Sevilla is very interesting. Fans call him the Butter Hands!" Although Fan Zhiyi was joking, his expression was not relaxed. "But Rick seems to have lost some fat this season. His success rate in saving single shots has soared to 82% this season."

[It is recommended that Song Wen bring a bottle of golden arowana to the stage. ]

【Pass it on! Atletico Madrid ordered 200 kilograms of flour overnight, specifically to create slipping shots. 】

[It's okay, we know Atletico Madrid has Diego Costa, the oil king, just let him kick the ball a few more times and it will be fine. ]

"Escudero, the butcher on the left!" Zhan Jun seemed to have thought of something bad. "In the previous match against Real Madrid, Escudero directly tackled Ronaldo and sent him flying into the air. This man has received 11 red cards in his career and is best at 45-degree diagonal tackles."

【Orthopedic Hospital VIP reservation. 】

[Song Wen is advised to buy ankle insurance.]

[It is recommended that FIFA design a hidden skill for Escudero: automatically play "Coffin Dance" after tackling. ]

[Sevilla Left Road Service Package: Free bone setting + wheelchair experience + medical insurance consultation. ]

Fan Zhiyi knocked on the table: "And this No. 1 Kjaer, who is called the 'face defense' expert! He is 9 meters tall and can give people a concussion with his head. Last month, he defended Suarez so hard that he bit his arm to vent his anger!"

[It is recommended that Song Wen wear a motorcycle helmet when he goes on stage. ]

[To be honest, I am not afraid of this brother Wen. Everyone knows that I can smash someone's ribs with my head.]

【This is the least threatening. 】

[As we all know, Song Wen learned Iron Head Kung Fu in Shaolin Temple when he was young.]

[The most anticipated duel, I hope the two of them will knock each other down! ]

"Another player worth mentioning is their No. 10 midfielder Banega," Zhan Jun checked his surgical pass data, "He averages 3.8 key passes per game, but this guy also has a very bad temper. From the flash of footage just now, we can see that Banega's skin has already turned red before the game even started."

Fan Zhiyi looked at the player list and said, "I think the most crucial player in this game is N'Zonzi. This guy is dark and tough. In the match against Real Madrid last month, he directly knocked Ramos into the billboard. He is 1 meters tall and his legs are thicker than Song Wen's waist!"

[Isn't it said that the Premier League is a test of physical fitness? This La Liga feels fierce too. 】

[How can modern football be without physical contact? 】

[1 meters tall, black and hard - illegal construction moving at the La Liga stadium. ]

[Enzongqi's three-piece defense: knocking away, carrying away, and burying billboards. ]

[N'Zonzi + Kjaer = mobile meat grinder]

At this time in the Sevilla locker room, coach Berizzo had a serious look on his face and was nervously making tactical arrangements for the players.

The coach took over Sevilla FC in June 17, but after only half a season, Berizzo's job as coach is already in jeopardy.

Sevilla, which was once able to sit firmly in the top five of La Liga, has seen dramatic fluctuations in performance under Berizzo's coaching and is currently ranked only seventh in La Liga.

Under his guidance, Sevilla's tactical style is actually quite similar to Atletico Madrid.

They are a team that is good at defensive counterattacks.

Today, facing Atletico Madrid, they directly deployed a 4-5-1 formation to compress the defense, hoping to disrupt Atletico's rhythm by strangling the midfield.

This is the solution that Berizzo came up with after much thought as soon as Song Wen joined Atletico Madrid.

He really needed a win.

If they could defeat this superstar from Great Britain, he would pack up and leave on his own without Sevilla having to chase him away.

Because if Sevilla can defeat Song Wen under his tactical command, then he will receive invitations from top clubs.

You should know that the big six in the Premier League were all defeated one by one by Song Wen, and Sevilla's value naturally cannot be compared with those Premier League giants.

In addition, Song Wen has now joined Atletico Madrid, and the overall strength has definitely been enhanced many times compared to Ipswich.

If he can win, then there is no need to say more about his quality as a head coach.

Although he knew the chances were slim, Berizzo believed he was not without a chance of winning.

After all, Song Wen has only joined Atletico Madrid for less than a week. In such a short period of time, not to mention whether Song Wen can quickly adapt to the rhythm of La Liga games, there will inevitably be big problems with the cooperation between the players in their team.

Song Wen is still a midfielder and needs to take on the task of organizing and connecting the team's offense.

Berizzo thought of this, so he directly arranged a 4-5-1 formation in order to put more pressure on Atletico's midfield cooperation, so as to cause them to make mistakes in coordination.

"Now clubs, coaches and players around the world want to defeat Song Wen."

Berizzo's eyes swept over the players one by one.

He knows that since he took over as head coach, many players are now reluctant to obey him because he has not led the team to good results.

So he directly moved Song Wen out.

"If we can win today's game, it will be a huge turning point in your career! Play today's game with all your strength. No matter what, we can't let that Chinese guy who came from Great Britain dance in front of us to celebrate!"

Berizzo's speech was obviously very effective.

The Sevilla locker room was instantly filled with fighting spirit.

On the other side, in the Douyin live broadcast room, Fan Zhiyi was still introducing Atletico Madrid's starting players today!
"After Song Wen joined Atletico Madrid, I also received many private requests from fans and friends, asking me to talk about the current Atletico Madrid. Indeed, maybe many of our fans paid more attention to the Premier League because of Song Wen..." Fan Zhiyi pretended to be confident while secretly flipping through the information.

He used to be a professional player in the Premier League, and Zhan Jun had also been commentating on Premier League games before.

I felt a little uncomfortable when I suddenly switched to La Liga.

"Atletico Madrid's goalkeeper is called the 'Wall of Sighs' by fans! The Slovenian goalkeeper has a save success rate of 85% in the past three seasons, but I think his save rate is actually a bit exaggerated."

Hearing Fan Zhiyi's words, Zhan Jun seemed a little surprised and asked:
"Is it true? I remember in the 2016 Champions League semi-final, he saved nine shots from Bayern in a single game."

"Yes," Fan Zhiyi nodded with a smile and said, "But we can't judge all of him based on this one time, right? If you look at other games, Oblak really spent most of his time on the sidelines drinking water. Although Oblak has won the La Liga Best Goalkeeper for four consecutive years, because Atletico's defense system is too strong, fans joked that he even had time to think about what to eat for dinner while saving shots."

Zhan Jun touched his nose and said with a smile:

"That's true. Atletico's defense is a headache for all teams around the world."

Seeing Zhan Jun's appearance, Fan Zhiyi continued to show off.

"Atletico Madrid's right back! No. 20 Juanfran! The 4-year-old Juanfran ran the longest distance in the team last season and is known as the 'right-wing perpetual motion machine'! This nickname comes from the 2016 Champions League final, when he sprinted 80 meters in stoppage time to intercept Bale!"

Zhan Jun nodded in agreement.

"That game really left a deep impression on me, especially Juanfran. This player is not only fast, but most importantly, he has endurance. The most frightening thing for a man is being too fast, but if this man is not only fast but also has endurance, that would be terrifying."

Hearing Zhan Jun's words, Fan Zhiyi hissed.

He found that the old guy was becoming more and more relaxed.

"The highlight is our iron-blooded captain, center back No. 2 Godin! A ruthless man from Uruguay! The shot of him screaming to the sky after scoring a header against Barcelona left a deep impression on me. Iron-blooded, iron-blooded, this is the iron-blooded Godin has created by hitting one head after another! It is said that he once smashed a drone with a header during training), and afterwards calmly asked the club to buy a bullet-proof model next time."

Zhan Jun was able to easily mention this well-known star player, and he said:
"Godin's success rate in clearing balls with his headers is 91% in his career, but what's even more legendary is that he finished the 2014 World Cup with a cracked shoulder blade. The team doctor said that he had to bite three sets of braces to pieces in pain. This tough guy who gave Messi a headache and Ronaldo a gritted teeth wrote an epic for Atletico Madrid with his header. As the fans said, "Godin's career is like his header - violent with poetry, tough with tenderness."

Having said that, Zhan Jun paused and continued:

"It is worth mentioning that most fans should know that Godin admires Messi very much. When Messi announced his retirement from the national team due to the defeat in the America's Cup, Godin got the phone number through Suarez and sent a text message, saying that if he wanted to retire, football would have one less reason for defenders to have nightmares."

Zhan Jun’s words made the barrage boil again.

[Fuck, Godin is Messi's dog? ]

[This is good, our King of Football Song will be completely isolated in Atletico Madrid. ]

【I feel sorry for King Song. 】

[He had conflicts with the club's star player Griezmann and scolded the captain's idol. How can he survive like this? ]

[I, Song the King of Football, will never go a game without getting a chance to touch the ball. 】

[It’s okay. I, King of Football Song, will directly tackle Griezmann’s feet. ]

Fan Zhiyi saw the comments in the barrage and said with a smile:

"But in a previous interview, Godin also joked that although he thinks Messi is great, Song Wen seems to be even better. When they decide the winner, the winner will be his idol."

Zhan Jun nodded and said:

"Although Godin is tough on the court, he is very easy-going in private and likes to make some jokes that are not so funny."

Looking at the comments expressing disbelief, Fan Zhiyi didn't say much.

He has a good relationship with Song Wen, so he naturally knows what Song Wen's current situation is in Atletico Madrid.

Therefore, he was not worried about the so-called locker room conflicts at all, and continued to speak.

"In addition to Godin, the other player who gave Atletico the name of iron and blood is naturally the Montenegrin butcher, Savic, the No. 15!"

"Savic's nickname 'butcher' is not for nothing! Last season he averaged 2.8 fouls per game and once knocked Benzema so hard that he turned two and a half times in the air!"

Zhan Jun saw that Fan Zhiyi was still talking, and felt that his job as a professional commentator was about to be taken away, so he quickly said:

"And our Atletico Madrid prince, No. 6 Koke! Koke joined Atletico Madrid's youth training when he was 11 years old, so he is affectionately called the 'prince' by the fans."

"Koke has a very good relationship with our Song Wen. Yesterday he tweeted that after meeting Song Wen, he finally understood what a true midfielder is."

Fan Zhiyi nodded and said:

"Yes, Cork's position is very much in need of connection with Song Wen. The relationship between the two of them should be good enough to reassure the fans."

He paused, then said:
"I almost forgot about our Gabi, the Atletico player wearing the No. 14 jersey, who can be considered a red card collector. So far in his career, he has received a total of 128 yellow cards and red cards. But it is also for this reason that Atletico fans like to call him the soul of the team, because he is always the first to stand up for his teammates on the field."

Zhan Jun smiled and nodded, then said:

"At the pre-match press conference, Gabi said something directly. He said that in today's game, if anyone dared to touch Song Wen, he would send the other person home in an ambulance! He also suggested that Sevilla's players buy medical insurance in advance, which also aroused the dissatisfaction of Sevilla fans. Fans of both sides cursed at each other on the Internet."

"Then there are the two forwards that Atletico played today. I'm sure everyone is familiar with Griezmann. His performance last season was not very good. I wonder if it can be improved with the addition of Song Wen. As for Diego Costa, another player with a stunning appearance, I still remember his grin that scared Pique so much that he asked for a substitution. From then on, Costa's face became the fourth referee in La Liga."

Fan Zhiyi was well prepared. He took a deep breath and interrupted Zhan Jun's commentary directly, raising his voice by eight octaves.

"Finally, it's our emperor! Song Wen!"

"Song Wen joined Atletico Madrid, Simeone gave him three golden medals, one is not to let go, two is unlimited firing, and three is to enjoy the support of the whole team!"

"I believe that in today's game, his first game after joining Atletico, he will have an amazing performance!"
