Chapter two hundred and thirteenth starting lineup

Barcelona won the European Super Cup, and a craze has set off in the media touted them, and the media said that the pressure is coming to Atletico Madrid.

In this regard, Gao Zheng expressed his inexplicable experience in an interview: "Why is the pressure on us? This is not the league championship battle last season. What pressure do we have? Shouldn't Barcelona be the one who should be under pressure? Because this game is at our home court, didn't they lose the league championship here last season?"

Gao Zheng's words were like sprinkling salt on Barcelona's wounds. Barcelona fans were originally worried about losing the league championship last season, resulting in the loss of the triple-champion.

As a result, Gao Zheng didn't mention any other pot, and insisted on Barcelona losing the league championship.

His words naturally aroused the disgust of many Barcelona fans. On the Internet, these Barcelona fans ran to Gao Zheng's Twitter to attack him.

The one who danced the most was naturally Blanco.

Last season, he was slapped by Gao Zheng several times, but he did not remember the lesson because of this, but was always resentful and wanted to take revenge.

Messi scored twice in the European Super Cup, which gave him the hope of revenge on Gao Zheng, so he posted another article to talk about historical statistics: "...Barcelona has participated in the Spanish Super Cup in a total of 20 times in history, including 11 of which. What about Atletico Madrid? He participated in five times, and only won the championship twice..."

His approach also attracted the counterattack of Madrid media: "Blanco, a reporter from Daily Sports, said a lot of data, but what he didn't tell you is that Atletico Madrid won the Spanish Super Cup for the first time in history, and it was precisely the defeat of Barcelona..."

Blanco immediately counterattacked: "Why didn't I say this? It's because if I said it, it would be more unfavorable to Atletico Madrid. I planned to give them some face out of my love and concern for Atletico Madrid. Unexpectedly, the Madrid media criticized their own people and became more ruthless than me. Well, that's right, I admit that Atletico Madrid's first Spanish Super Cup was won by defeating Barcelona. But what the Madrid media didn't tell you is that Atletico Madrid participated in the Spanish Super Cup three times next time, and their opponents were Barcelona, ​​and they... all lost. Look, no matter from which point of view, Barcelona has a more advantage than Atletico Madrid..."

This historical data is indeed quite slap in the face, so the war of words in the Madrid media came to an abrupt end and did not continue.

Only some Atletico Madrid fans replied under Blanco's Twitter, taking the results of last season's league championship as an example, proving that historical data is useless and will still be defeated when it is time to fall apart.

Blanco ignored this at all.

Louis Enrique frowned as he looked at the schedule of the period.

The European Super Cup just finished on August 11th, three days later, August 14th, is the first leg of the Spanish Super Cup, and three days later, August 17th, is the second leg of the Spanish Super Cup.

Six days later, on August 23, Barcelona will usher in the first round of the La Liga.

This schedule is too intensive.

It is logical that he should have a rotation, but when he thinks that the opponent in the Spanish Super Cup is Atletico Madrid, his decision to rotate is a bit difficult to confirm.

If Atletico Madrid rotates, he is worried that he will lose the away game against Atletico Madrid.

But if there is no rotation, such intensive games will make the team tired and increase the risk of players being injured.

After thinking about it, Enrique finally made a decision that the rotation would still have to be rotated, but it would be rotated slightly.

In particular, you must ensure that there is enough offensive firepower on the field just in case.

After considering these situations, Enrique lined up his roster.

"... Before the game started, both sides announced the lineup. What was a little surprised was that Enrique did not line up all the main players in this game. Messi and Suarez on the front line, while Pedro, who came on as a substitute in the last European Super Cup, entered... In the midfielder Busquets was in the most familiar position, but in front of him, there was no Iniesta. Iniesta sat on the bench in this game, Rakitic and Rafinia. On the defense line, Alves and Pique both appeared, but Pique was not Mascherano, but Vermalen, and the left-back was also replaced by Adriano... Of course, the goalkeeper was still Ter Stegen..."

"Considering that Barcelona has just played 120 minutes of the European Super Cup with Sevilla, it is understandable that Barcelona rotates. In fact, whether the rotation or not does not affect the fighting spirit of Barcelona players, because this is playing at Atletico Madrid away. Every Barcelona player will not forget how they lost the league championship here last season. Now that there is such a chance to revenge, how can Barcelona give up? Moreover, if the rotation players want to win more opportunities for themselves in the new season, they naturally have to work harder in this game, so maybe they will have better results than the main players?"

"Atlantic Madrid also announced their lineup, and Gao Zheng appeared in the middle without any suspense. He was partnered with Griezmann. Four midfielders, from left to right, are Cork, Thiago and Gabi, Torres. Left-back Felipe Luis, centre-back Jimenez and Godin, right-back Juan Fran, goalkeeper Oblack. This is basically the main lineup of Atletico Madrid. Simeone has no rotation, and of course he doesn't need to rotate. This is their first official game of the new season..."

Each of these two sets of lineups has their interpretation, but the interpretations of these experts are meaningless, because the outcome of the final game does not depend on their interpretation.

When the players of both sides walked out of the player's channel, the TV broadcast pointed the camera at Messi and Gao Zheng one after another.

After last season, everyone has now begun to accept the fact that Gao Zheng, Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo are compared together.

Of course, it is necessary to observe whether Gao Zheng can really withstand such a comparison.

But at least now everyone admits that Gao Zheng can be compared with Messi.

Although Gao Zheng’s ultimate goal is to defeat Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, it is already amazing to be comparable to them now. After all, the other party is a world-class superstar who has been famous for a long time.
