Chapter 85 The New Pattern of La Liga

"This is really a miraculous season, Atletico Madrid broke the ten-year monopoly of Real Madrid and Barcelona in La Liga, and what is even more unimaginable is that this civilian team with an annual budget of only tens of millions of euros has a chance to win the Champions League trophy this season, in the era of Jinyuan football, such a miracle is officially precious!" Looking at the Napoli players who were celebrating wildly, the commentator sighed.

"Atletico Madrid fully deserved this title, and this season they beat their rivals, Real Madrid and Barcelona, with a strong performance of winning the title two rounds in advance. And especially in the duel against the strong teams, they did not fall behind at all, they beat Real Madrid twice in the league, the result against Barcelona was a draw, and in the Champions League, they eliminated AC Milan, Barcelona and Chelsea all the way! This impressive record has made them the most eye-catching team in the whole of Spain this season! ”

After the TV broadcast showed a panoramic shot of the victory celebration, the close-up was immediately locked on Li Qingshan's body.

Li Qingshan, who scored a hat-trick in this game, undoubtedly became the biggest contributor to Atletico Madrid's victory. It was no surprise that he won the best player of the match!

Although Li Qingshan joined the team halfway through, his contribution was absolutely indispensable on the way to Atletico Madrid's title – especially against strong teams.

So far, Li Qingshan has scored a total of 32 goals for Atletico Madrid, including 20 in the league! He is currently in fourth place in La Liga's scorer list, ahead of Messi with 30 goals, Cristiano Ronaldo with 28 goals, and Diego Costa with 24 goals. And he did it all in just half a season!

'He's a fantastic player and he's only 21 years old now. I really don't know how many goals he would have scored if he was given a full La Liga season? ”

............

Simeone did not participate in the team's celebrations, he stood on the sidelines with his waist crossed, watching the joyous Atletico players on the field.

His team, his players, his subordinates.

At this moment, the satisfaction in Simone's heart rose infinitely. But he soon drove that satisfaction out of his heart again - as a coach, he forced himself to have a strong hunger and thirst at all times.

A mere La Liga title will never satisfy him!

He is now thinking about the Champions League final in 20 days' time, and the rest is next season.

One thing he didn't announce to the team is that Diego Costa is officially looking for a transfer. This was known only between him and Diego Costa. The Atletico Madrid players who are happy in the stadium now don't know that Shengshi Meiyan will leave the team next season....

Simeone then set his sights on Li Qingshan, who fortunately has a consistent scorer who can replace Diego Costa in time.

How will Atletico's squad be arranged next season? Is it to introduce a striker to continue to play the 442 with double strikers, or simply let Li Qingshan play a single striker?

Simeone hasn't made up his mind yet, and both options seem to be feasible..... At least this season, Li Qingshan's performance as a single striker is also very good.

Simeone was thinking about next season when the Atletico players suddenly rushed to him. Excited Atletico players clamored and surrounded their coach.

"Boss! Why are you hiding here? ”

A group of people couldn't help but say something, so they set him up, and then threw him up to catch him..... Throw it up again and catch it again.

For Atletico Madrid now, Simeone is the only soul.

Therefore, only Simeone can enjoy such treatment!

..................

Winning the championship away from home, the award ceremony of the new La Liga champion will naturally not be too complicated. La Liga officials quickly set up a podium, and then everyone stood on it.

Captain Godin took over the La Liga title from Spanish football president Angel Bilal. Since it was an away game, there weren't too many Atletico fans on site, but when the Levante fans were all gone after the game, the cramped, small stadium became their world.

"Congratulations to the winner of the 2013-2014 Spanish Primera Liga - Atletico Madrid !!!"

With a shout from the commentator, Atletico Madrid's captain Godin held the trophy aloft. The other Atletico players also raised their hands one after another, and everyone had happy smiles on their faces.

"Atletico Madrid! Atletico Madrid! ”

The players shouted the names of the team, and although the scene was a little deserted, they didn't care!

It wasn't until the whole Atletico team returned to Madrid that they were greeted by Atletico Madrid fans in the middle of the city!

It's just that it's not yet the end of the season to celebrate the championship, so the Atletico Madrid players are just waving through the glass windows of the buses to the Atletico fans outside the window.

When the whole Atletico team returned to Madrid, Simeone announced on the spot that the whole team would have a three-day holiday!

"Hooray!!!

The fact that the players who have worked hard for a season can get three days off is of course a decision to support Simeone.

There are six days to go until the next La Liga game, but it doesn't matter to Atletico Madrid – they've already won the title anyway, so the remaining two rounds are a warm-up game.....

And Li Qingshan also fulfilled his promise in London - he also asked the whole team to rub it.

Just in time for the holiday, more than 20 players of the Atletico Madrid team appeared in a high-end restaurant in Madrid.........

..............

For Atletico, the remaining two rounds of La Liga don't mean much – if anything, there are two games left to get some of the substitutes who don't usually get the chance to play, while rotating the main players to keep the game in shape and recovering from the fitness that has been somewhat exhausted after more than a season.

Now all their attention is on the Champions League

If there's one thing that makes Atletico players and fans happy alike, it's the final round of La Liga, where they will be greeted by their arch-rivals Barcelona at the Camp Nou.....

On May 11, in the 31st round of La Liga, Atletico Madrid hosted Malaga.

From the very beginning of the match, the Calderón Stadium was plunged into a sea of joy and no one paid attention to the situation of the game at all.

And Atletico Madrid also sent a second-tier lineup in this game. Li Qingshan and Diego Costa didn't even make the squad for the match.

For Malaga, who have not yet fully relegated from the relegation, every game is very important. So they scored in the thirtieth minute of the game with a tireless effort to take a 1-0 lead away to new La Liga champions Atletico Madrid. In the final moments of the game, veteran Villa equalised for Atletico. The match also ended in a draw.

In the final round of the league, Atletico Madrid faced Barcelona away. The game has lost any meaning for Atletico. But it is of great significance to Barcelona - Barcelona is now behind Real Madrid in third place in La Liga, as Barcelona's sworn enemy, Barcelona naturally does not want its ranking to be lower than Real Madrid - this is the last dignity of Barcelona this season. Because they had already lost to Real Madrid in the final of the Copa del Rey in Spain, this season is destined to be empty.

Atletico enjoyed a round of applause from the Barcelona squad at Camp Nou, but in the game, the main Barcelona played much more aggressively than the absent-minded Atletico.

Barcelona already had a two-goal lead over Atletico in the first half, and in the second half, Simeone made three substitutions in a row, with Li Qingshan, Diego Costa and Raul Garcia coming on. It's about getting the main players to play and stay in good shape ahead of the Champions League game.

In the end, Atletico Madrid lost 1-2 to Barcelona away, and Li Qingshan assisted Raul Garcia to score Atletico's only goal, and La Liga finally ended!

Atletico Madrid won the title in first place with 89 points, Real Madrid in second place with 87 points and Barcelona in third place with 85 points. From fourth place, the points dropped sharply by a notch - in fourth place was Athletic Bilbao with 67 points.....

La Liga looks like it's going to be in the top three!
