Chapter 85 What's the point of not being strong enough?

Gao Zheng, who returned to Madrid, devoted himself to Atletico Madrid's training with little rest.

Because they lost to Valencia in the last round, the next game against the Spaniard is very important.

Even though he was affected by the national team game, Simeone still sent the strongest lineup in this game.

The team's performance was not satisfactory. Atletico Madrid faced the Spaniard at home and easily won the opponent with a score of 2:0.

After this game, Atletico Madrid will usher in the third group stage of the Champions League.

against Malmö.

However, with the lessons learned from the last round of the group stage, I am afraid that no one will regard them as the weakest team in this group and casually score points.

If you don't go all out and underestimate the enemy in your heart, Olympiacos is a lesson from the past.

So in this game, although Atletico Madrid is playing at home, Diego Simeone still has the strongest lineup.

The effect of this strongest lineup is still very good.

In the first half, the two sides were considered the whole game. The two sides had offense and defense against each other, but in general, Atletico Madrid, which is playing at home and is stronger, has the advantage on the scene.

As long as the eyes are not blind, you can see that if the game continues like this, it is only a matter of time before Atletico Madrid scores a goal.

Sure enough, just three minutes into the second half, Cork opened the scoring for Atletico Madrid.

Then in the 61st minute, after receiving a cross from Cork, Gao Zheng shot with his left foot and scored his third goal in the Champions League this season.

Three minutes later, Gao Zheng launched an attack and passed the ball to Cork, who then passed the football to Griezmann, who assisted Griezmann to score his first Champions League goal of the season.

In the 77th minute, Gao Zheng scored twice to help Atletico Madrid extend their lead to 4:0.

At the end of the game, Italian forward Cerci, who came on as a substitute for Griezmann, scored the last goal to help Atletico Madrid beat Malmo 5-0 at home.

"That's right!" commented the commentator Jose Maria. "This is the normal performance that Atletico Madrid should have when facing a team that is not as good as them. What the hell is the 2:3 loss to Olympiacos in the first away game..."

He still broods over the loss of that game.

Because if Atletico Madrid had won that game, they would now be at the top of the list with nine points, far away from Juventus - in another group match held at the same time, Juventus was also 0:1 away Lost to Olympiacos, came a two-game losing streak, and now Atletico Madrid and Olympiacos have six points, and Atletico Madrid temporarily ranks first with a goal difference advantage. However, it is not the goal difference that ultimately determines the ranking, but the relationship between the teams with the same score. At present, Olympiacos has defeated Atletico Madrid, and they have an advantage in the relationship between each other...

However, Olympiacos still has a chance to come to Atletico Madrid to challenge them at home, so as long as Atletico Madrid can beat Olympiacos at home, this is not a problem.

Can they beat Olympiacos at home?

Judging from their 5-0 home defeat against Malmo, there should be no suspense... Of course, the premise is that the Atlético Madrid players have a correct mentality and don't be arrogant and underestimate the enemy.

※※※

Back in the league, Atletico Madrid had a two-game winning streak. They first defeated Getafe 1-0 away and won the "Madrid South Derby"-both Getafe and Atletico Madrid's bases are in the south of Madrid. .

Gao Zheng scored the only goal of the game.

Then in the home game against Cordoba, Atletico Madrid defeated the opponent 4:2. Gao Zheng scored twice in this game.

In the ten rounds of the league, he has scored eight goals.

Such a result can be said to be very good, and this is his performance after joining La Liga, a completely unfamiliar league, and there is no adaptation period at all.

But even so, eight goals only put him in third place.

Take a look at his rivals for the top scorer in La Liga:

Currently ranked second is Barcelona's Brazilian star Neymar, who scored nine goals in ten league rounds, ranking above Gao Zheng.

This kind of performance is actually quite normal, which shows that Neymar's condition is also very good, but the good is not exaggerated, it is still within the understandable range.

But the man at the top of the scorer list is in such a good state that it makes people think he is from outer space...

Topping the list is Portuguese striker Cristiano Ronaldo.

In the first ten rounds of the league, except for the second round where he missed due to injury, there are still nine games left, scoring every game, and not one or two goals.

In the first round of the league, he played against Cordoba, and he scored a goal; in the third round of the league, he played against Atletico Madrid, although Real Madrid lost the game, but he still scored a goal; in the fourth round of the league, he played against Deportivo Deportivo In the fifth round of the league against Elche, he scored four goals; against Villarreal in the sixth round of the league, he scored a goal; against Bilbao in the seventh round of the league In the eighth round of the league against Levante, he scored twice; in the ninth round of the league in the national derby, Real Madrid defeated Barcelona 3:1 at home, and he scored in that game One goal; in the tenth round of the league, Real Madrid beat Granada 4:0, and he scored another goal.

After ten league rounds, the Portuguese scored seventeen goals.

Some strikers may not be able to score so many goals in a season...

And not only scoring goals in the league, Ronaldo also scored goals in the UEFA Champions League group stage at the same time.

Cristiano Ronaldo's form is simply dire.

Facing Ronaldo like this, the Spanish media didn't know what to say. It can only be announced that the suspense of this season's league Golden Boot competition will end early. You must know that when Gao Zheng was in Italy, he announced that he would lock up the Golden Boot in advance after only thirteen rounds of the league, but he was scolded bloody by the Italian media, saying that he was arrogant and arrogant.

But now, after the Portuguese has scored 17 goals in ten games, no one thinks there is anything wrong with letting him lock the league golden boot in advance.

After Real Madrid lost the Madrid derby before, the media was full of bad-mouthing voices about Real Madrid, Ancelotti and Cristiano Ronaldo.

Unexpectedly, they were all slapped in the face by the speed of light.

Under the leadership of Ronaldo's terrifying state, Real Madrid has maintained a ten-game winning streak on all fronts.

Every game is scored, every game can be won.

When Gao Zheng led Atletico Madrid to defeat Real Madrid in the Madrid intracity derby, he scored twice. After scoring twice, Chinese fans and the media compared him with the Portuguese superstar.

But now even the most die-hard Gao Zheng fans have to admit in the face of such statistics that Gao Zheng's performance is already very good, but it is not enough to compare with Cristiano Ronaldo.

But Gao Zheng might not see it that way.

He said to Feng Shiyao on WeChat: "This is why I came to La Liga! To be able to compete with such a powerful opponent is better than anything else!"

"Xiao Yingying was still worried that you would be hit by the huge gap, she should be relieved now." Feng Shiyao replied.

"What's the point of being hit? If the opponent is not weak enough, how boring is it?" Gao Zheng grinned.

Putting down the phone, Feng Shiyao turned to Xiao Yingying and said, "Don't worry, he has high fighting spirit."

Xiao Yingying smiled: "Then I'm relieved. By the way, Sister Feng, what else did you two talk about?"

"I didn't talk about anything, I just conveyed your concern."

"Sister Feng, you really only said this one thing?" Xiao Yingying was dumbfounded.

"Otherwise? Everyone is so busy, how can we have time to chat?"

Xiao Yingying covered her face.

Feng Shiyao kicked her: "Go to work!"

After Xiao Yingying jumped off the sofa, Feng Shiyao picked up the phone and replied: "Then you work hard and defeat him as soon as possible!"
