? In the early morning of April 3, Beijing time, and on the evening of April 2 local time in Munich, the quarter-finals of the Champions League began in full swing. Bayern Munich made their first appearance. Also kicked off at the same time on the same day were Porto vs. Barcelona.

Although Dortmund Media gave Juventus advice before the game, it didn't help.

Bayern Munich easily defeated Juventus 2-0 at home.

Just one minute after the match started, Alaba opened the record for Bayern Munich. This goal completely disrupted Juventus' plan.

However, Bayern Munich did not fail to pay for the victory of this game. In the sixteenth minute, Tony Cross was injured and could not continue to stick to the game and was replaced in advance. As the core of Bayern Munich's midfield this season, Cross's injury may affect Bayern Munich's subsequent performance in the league and the Champions League, which is a bit worrying.

In another stadium, Porto lost to Barcelona 1-2 at home. They did not cause much trouble for Barcelona. Two away goals made Barcelona's hopes for qualifying greatly increased. In the second round, returning to Barcelona's home court, Porto is almost impossible to make a comeback.

This day's game, as a Chinese fan, is not very concerned. In addition to the existing fan groups of the three teams Barcelona, ​​Juventus and Bayern Munich, more people are still waiting for tomorrow's game.

Tomorrow, Dortmund will go away to challenge Atletico Madrid!

In the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League, the best Chinese derby will be staged!

As for another match between Real Madrid and Galatasaray, no one pays attention. I am afraid that even the domestic Real Madrid fans, many people will choose to watch the live broadcast of Atletico Madrid to Dortmund, and through other channels, For example, the Internet will pay attention to the score of Real Madrid in that game.

Moreover, the domestic CCTV also chose to put Dortmund and Atletico Madrid on the free sports channel, while Real Madrid and Galatasaray were placed on the paid Fengyun football channel. Through this arrangement, you can see which game is the most popular in China.

It is one day before the game begins, but there have been many reports about the game in the media.

The whole team of Dortmund arrived in Madrid, the players of both sides were interviewed, the coaches of both sides attended the pre-match press conference, and Dortmund conducted field adaptability training...

All kinds of news reports highlight the tension in the game.

Sun Pan said in an interview with reporters before the game: "I have told Zhou Yi that I will not let Dortmund score a goal in this game!"

Zhou Yi smiled and said: "Atletico Madrid is very strong and it is an away game. In reality, I think it is good to be able to tie them on the road."

Sun Pan’s arrogance is as usual, and Zhou Yi’s low profile has surprised everyone. Chinese media analysis believes that Zhou Yi may be “saving character” and taking the initiative to weaken, so that Atletico Madrid can relax its vigilance, and then against Madrid Athletic launched a sudden attack and caught the opponent by surprise.

Although foreign media do not know the word "save character", Zhou Yi's low-key is a bit strange. Usually challenge opponents, even if the strength is not good, they will say some beautiful words to strengthen the momentum, even if the real goal is a draw, then we must say that we should strive to win. Why did Zhou Yi directly say that the goal was a draw?

Based on Zhou Yi's past performance, everyone thinks that Dortmund's goal may not be a draw, but just hopes to use such words and deeds to paralyze opponents.

If Zhou Yi still has time to pay attention to media reports before the game, he will definitely say that the media think too much.

This game strives for a draw, which is not his goal, but the coaching staff.

They have reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League. Every opponent here is not easy to deal with, and every game is difficult. Therefore, we must be cautious and not take it lightly.

Moreover, with the strength of Atletico Madrid, it is not easy for Dortmund to beat them away. To win, you have to invest more in the offense, and more on the offense, which will result in a reduction in the defense force, and when it is counterattacked by Atletico Madrid, it will be over.

This is not terrifying, but real. Simoni's Atletico Madrid relied on a solid defense, counterattack against Fengshengshuiqi.

Klopp wouldn't take the risk.

Moreover, Atletico Madrid at home is the one who is desperate to win the game, so Dortmund is based on defense, waiting for Atletico Madrid to come out, and then fight them back, there is no need to press out.

It is totally acceptable to get a draw away.

※※※

On the day of the match, Calderon Stadium, the home of Atletico Madrid, was full. For Atletico Madrid fans, it is very rare for a team to reach the quarter-finals of the Champions League-they last reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League last 16 years ago.

In the history of the Champions League, Atletico Madrid reached the quarterfinals six times, the last time in the distant 1996-1997 season. Atletico Madrid was in the same group as the current quarter-final opponent Dortmund. They won 13 points in the group stage with four wins, one draw and one loss. They beat Dortmund with the advantage of the goal difference and became the first in the group.

However, after advancing in the group stage, they were eliminated in the quarter-finals by 3:4 by the very powerful Ajax at that time.

Afterwards, Atlético Madrid had many ups and downs, not to mention the quarter-finals of the Champions League. It is very good to be able to enter the Champions League. In the 21st century, they even relegated.

Atletico Madrid last participated in the UEFA Champions League in the 2009-2010 season. At that time, they were qualified for the UEFA Champions League qualifier with the fourth result of La Liga last season. Through the qualifying match, they were able to participate in the UEFA Champions League group stage. They were divided into a group with Atletico, Chelsea and Porto.

As a result, the six group matches of Atletico Madrid were unbeaten, three draws and three losses, only three points, scoring three goals and losing eight goals, only because of an away goal in the game against the Greeks, so ranked At the top of Atletico Greece, they participated in the UEFA Cup in the second half of the season as the third team.

But no one expected that Atletico Madrid's performance in the UEFA Champions League was so bad, but it was a blessing in the Europa League.

Atlético Madrid, downgraded from the Champions League, defeated Galatasaray in the 16th final of the UEFA Cup with a total score of 3:2. In the quarter-finals, with two away goals, 2:2 eliminated Sporting Lisbon and reached the quarterfinals. In the quarter-finals, they also eliminated Valencia with the same two away goals of 2:2 and advanced to the semifinals.

In the first round of the semi-finals, Atlético Madrid defeated Liverpool 1:0 at home. In the 90th minute away game of Liverpool, Liverpool won Atletico Madrid 1:0. The two sides have the same total score and the same number of away goals.

In extra time, Liverpool took the lead and Benayon helped the team to change the total score to 2:1. If this score is maintained until the end, Atletico Madrid will be eliminated. But in the 102nd minute, Atletico Madrid forward Diego Fran scored a key goal for Atletico Madrid.

Although Atlético Madrid lost to Liverpool 1-2 away, but with this Fran goal, Atlético Madrid has one more away goal than Liverpool~lightnovelpub.net~ So they once again took advantage of the away goal , Eliminated Liverpool and reached the finals...

In the UEFA Cup final, Atletico Madrid and Fulham dragged the game into overtime again. In overtime, it was Diego Fran’s goal, which ultimately helped Atletico Madrid score a 2-1 Defeated Fulham and won the Europa League.

Lost in the Champions League, made up in the UEFA Cup, Atletico Madrid's winning experience is really legendary.

After a lapse of one year, Atletico Madrid again won the championship trophy in the UEFA Cup, this time with the participation of Chinese players-Sun Pan as the team’s main goalkeeper, for the team to get the UEFA Cup championship, set Khan Ma credits.

In this UEFA Europa League, Atletico Madrid scored a 12-game winning streak, sweeping Europe.

These two UEFA Cup wins have accumulated a lot of experience for Atletico Madrid in the European War, so they can reach the quarterfinals in one breath after re-entering the Champions League after two years this season.

This is a manifestation of strength, and it is also the reason why Klopp did not dare to treat Atletico Madrid lightly on the away scene. Zhou Yi's words did not contain any conspiracy theory at all, which was pure respect and attention to Atletico Madrid. (To be continued.)
