Chapter 526 Let's Charge for the Championship...

"The game has been deadlocked for 40 minutes, but why do I always have a feeling that there may be an incredible surprise in the final stage of the game?"

In the media area of ​​the Nou Camp stands in Barcelona, ​​in the SER Radio section, Jose Ramon de la Morena, the host who is known as the number one media in the Spanish sports world and has tens of thousands of listeners and fans, said with a smile.

Although he is in his fifties, he doesn't look like a middle-aged man at all. Instead, he gives people a very young, fashionable and stylish feeling. Anyone who doesn't know him would guess that he is in his early teens at most.

After saying this, Jose Ramon looked around and saw his colleagues sitting in the media area. Many of them looked at him with suspicion, which made him laugh.

Reaching out to tidy up the long hair beside his ears, Jose Ramon smiled and said, "I know that many listeners must be wondering why I said this, but I can't give a reason. I can only say that this is a hunch!"

The media area was filled with media colleagues from all over the world, some of whom didn't even know Jose Ramon.

So, after these words were spoken, there was a burst of laughter in the media area.

It was obvious that they must have been secretly giving José Ramón the finger.

Damn, you are pretending to be mysterious. Can all this be explained by just one intuition?

"As an Atletico Madrid fan for more than 50 years, I must say that I am full of expectations for Atletico Madrid this season. Diego Simeone, I love you!"

Many media people around are secretly criticizing.

Wow, you’re just a radio host, why are you pretending to be so smart?

Do you like him? Does it work? You act like you are some superstar!

But only those who are truly familiar with and understand the Spanish media industry will know how much weight Jose Ramon's words carry and how much impact and change they will bring to Atletico Madrid and Simeone.

There is no need to say much about the distant things, let’s talk about the nearby ones.

In 2009, Florentino, the current president of Real Madrid, planned to come back to the political arena. Before running for the presidency of Real Madrid again, he went to SER Radio in advance to participate in Jose Ramon's interview program to get a feel for the situation.

It was that time that made Florentino completely convinced that he would be invincible if he ran for election!

At the same time, Jose Ramon was also the first person in the world to make it clear that Florentino would be the only candidate for the position of chairman of Real Madrid and would introduce Kaka and Cristiano Ronaldo.

In recent days, Jose Ramon was the first to announce that Mourinho would be sacked.

After Florentino confirmed that Mourinho was sacked, he immediately made an appointment to be interviewed on SER Radio.

From this it is not difficult to see how great an influence José Ramón and his show have in Spain.

You know, Jose Ramon has always been a staunch fan of Atletico Madrid, a sworn enemy of Real Madrid!

Jose Ramon's most famous incident was when he accused the Spanish Sports Ministry of approving the Football Association President Villa to postpone the election. As a result, the then Sports Minister had to publicly apologize to Jose Ramon.

From this we can see that the title of the No. 1 person in Spanish media is not an empty title.

As a die-hard fan of Atletico Madrid, Jose Ramon has a very bad relationship with Atletico Madrid's meritorious coaches such as Clemente and Aragones. But this time, he made it clear that he supports Simeone. It can be seen how excited Jose Ramon is about Atletico Madrid's outstanding performance this season.

This is the closest Atletico Madrid has been to the league title since winning the La Liga title in the 1995-96 season!

How can I not be excited? How can I not be thrilled?

Not only Jose Ramon, the enthusiasm of almost all Atletico Madrid fans in Spain has been ignited!

While many people were secretly criticizing Jose Ramon, the middle-aged Spanish man didn't care at all. With his sharp eyes, he immediately noticed the movement in the visiting team's coaching booth.

"Hey, guess what I saw?"

"Haha, that's what I said. How could Simeone be content to just hold on to a 2-0 score?"

"There are still more than 20 minutes left before the end of the game, Atletico Madrid plans to make substitutions!"

As Jose Ramon shouted, everyone in the media area immediately looked towards the visiting team's coaching bench.

Isn’t it?

I saw Atletico Madrid's head coach Simeone pulling two players and talking to them, but I couldn't see clearly who they were.

"That's Griezmann, the French striker Atletico Madrid brought in from Real Sociedad this season."

"After this player came to Atletico Madrid, although he lost out in the competition with Diego Costa and Tevez, he still played for the team many times and performed quite well, and currently has one goal in his account."

"The other one is the team's number ten midfielder, Turan from Turkey!"

"Our radio station has reported before that Atletico Madrid has reached an agreement with Turkish Airlines. Starting from next season, Turkish Airlines will become the sponsor of Atletico Madrid's jersey advertisements."

"Before, Barcelona secretly negotiated with Qatar Airways behind Turkish Airlines' back, which angered Turkish Airlines, but in the end Qatar Airways turned to sponsor Southampton, and Turkish Airlines also decided not to renew its contract with Barcelona and instead sponsor Atletico Madrid!"

"This season, the sponsor of the Atletico Madrid shirt advertisement is Lagonda, a brand under the British luxury car brand Aston Martin. The sponsorship fee is as high as 20 million euros. It is expected that the price offered by Turkish Airlines will not be lower than this contract. After all, Turan is also quite influential in Turkey."

Following Jose Ramon's words, Atletico Madrid completed the substitution.

"Wow, Turan replaced Illarramendi, and Suarez returned to the center to partner with Gabi."

"Griezmann replaced Raul Garcia!"

"It can be seen that Simeone is going to press forward and attack. Barcelona is in danger now!"

"We have been struggling with Atletico Madrid for more than an hour, and now Atletico Madrid is going crazy!"

"The score of 2-0 is too low, score a few more goals, Atletico Madrid!"

"If Simeone had been more ruthless and brought on Mandzukic, it would have been even more exciting. Look at Puyol and Mascherano, they had such a hard time dealing with Diego Costa. If they had met Mandzukic, the scene would have been wonderful. I dare not watch it!"

Jose Ramon's commentary has never thought about pursuing neutrality. He is very straightforward. He just supports Atletico Madrid. The listeners have long been accustomed to it over the years.

Anyway, if you like to listen, then listen; if you don’t like to listen, then leave!

But it's true, after Atletico Madrid successively replaced Griezmann and Turan and played on the two sides, Barcelona became very passive and had a hard time coping, but they still held on.

Diego Costa has fought hard against Real Madrid and Barcelona in two consecutive games, especially in this one, he tried his best in the first hour or so, and now he feels a little exhausted.

So, less than ten minutes after the substitution, Simeone made another adjustment and replaced Diego Costa with Mandzukic.

"Damn, Simeone is going to fight to the death this time!"

"I like it, come on, Atletico Madrid, go for it!"

Everyone in the media area looked embarrassed. On the one hand, they had to admire Jose Ramon's so-called intuition, but on the other hand, they felt helpless for Barcelona.

Although Mandzukic and Diego Costa only differ in height by two centimeters, these two players are completely different types.

Mandzukic's strength and impact, as well as his ability to control the air, were simply a crushing defeat for the aging Puyol and the short Mascherano.

If you think about it carefully, Diego Simeone is really insidious.

It must have been a sudden idea after seeing Pique being brought off the field by Diego Costa?

Use the terrifying tank-level Mandzukic to defeat Puyol and Mascherano!

No need to think about it, Atletico Madrid will only have one tactic next: fly on both wings!

Not only the media thought so, even Vilanova, who was standing in front of the home team's coaching bench, had a stern and grim face, as if he was about to collapse and was shaky.

At this time, with Mandzukic on the field, Griezmann and Turan on the wings, and the beast-like Tevez in the middle, Simeone is simply going to take advantage of the victory and continue to pursue Barcelona!

what to do?

Who can stop Mandzukic?

Even if Pique hadn't left the field, he might not have been able to stop it, not to mention that Pique is gone now, who else is there?

Vilanova looked back at the bench and saw that they were all technical players, there was no one else!

This time, he felt like crying himself to death!

As expected, as early as Griezmann and Turan came on the field, Atletico Madrid was determined to play on the two wings.

After Mandzukic came on the court, there was a fulcrum in the middle and the two wings were completely activated.

Griezmann and Turan were active on the two wings, while Tevez spared no effort to roam around on both sides, responding to the attacks from both wings. With the addition of Mandzukic, the entire Barcelona penalty area suddenly became panic-stricken.

After more than seventy minutes of fighting, Barcelona's players were already exhausted.

Simeone's ultimate move at this time was undoubtedly the end of Barcelona!

Just when the 80th minute had just begun, Mandzukic received a cross from Turan in the penalty area, headed the ball into Valdes' goal, the score being zero!

But not long after the goal, Mandzukic received a long pass from the backcourt, won the first point, headed it to Tevez, who passed it to Turan, the Turk then passed it to the back post, Griezmann inserted from the left and shot into the goal, making it 4-0!

Two consecutive goals successfully expanded the score to four to zero, and completely extinguished Barcelona's determination to fight to the end!

Vilanova covered his face with frustration and walked into the home team's coaching booth.

Behind him, the fans at Camp Nou could no longer sit still and began to boo and mock the home team.

Four to zero?

Moreover, they are facing the Bed Sheet Army that has been leading by a large margin in the past few years?

It's so shameful and disgraceful!

Who could have imagined that before the game everyone thought Barcelona had secured the point, but it turned out to be a one-sided massacre between Atletico Madrid and Barcelona!

"Atletico Madrid's performance in this game was amazing. Simeone's tactics completely suppressed Barcelona!"

"Not only that, Atletico Madrid's players are also very strong. Whether it's Diego Costa, Tevez, Mandzukic, Griezmann, Turan, Illarramendi and other players, they have all shown a gratifying level!"

"Such an Atletico Madrid team fully deserves such a result!"

"More importantly, we saw from this game that Atletico Madrid does not only use mad dog-like pressing tactics. Simeone's team is full of tactical flexibility, full of changes, full of surprises, and full of infinite possibilities!"

"As an Atletico Madrid fan, I want to say, well done, Simeone, well done, Atletico Madrid!"

"Let us start from tonight and make an impact towards the long-lost league championship!"

Jose Ramon made his inner appeal as an Atletico Madrid fan in his radio program!

The league championship is already far away for Atletico Madrid!

Especially after experiencing relegation and downturn at the beginning of the century, they are eager to win the league championship trophy!
