Chapter 219: The game begins

In fact, for Atletico Madrid, in addition to the second leg of the Champions League semifinals, the thing they are most concerned about is the renewal of Li Qingshan's contract.

After this season, Li Qingshan will enter the contract year, so for Simeone, leaving the number one player in his team is undoubtedly the most important job.

In fact, Atletico Madrid has long begun to negotiate with Li Qingshan about the renewal of the contract, but Li Qingshan himself will not intervene in this matter, and his matters on the contract are entrusted to Raiola to deal with. Now there is no progress on the renewal of the contract between the two parties, and the main problem is that they are stuck on the annual salary requirement.

The condition given by Atletico Madrid is that he is willing to break the team's salary balance for Li Qingshan and greatly adjust his salary to 6 million euros, which is definitely the highest salary in the team in Atletico Madrid, which is the greatest sincerity the team can give in the eyes of Atletico Madrid's senior management.

But there is still a big gap between this salary and the salary that Raiola asks.

The salary that Raiola demanded for Li Qingshan was 12 million euros a year!

Of course, Raiola doesn't think he is a lion, and the reason he gave is that Li Qingshan, as the number one star of Atletico Madrid, is even one of the most influential players in La Liga, compared to Messi's salary of 20 million euros per year, while Ronaldo's salary is 19 million euros per year after tax.

Raiola thinks that he is just asking for a salary of only 12 million euros for his employer, which is already quite merciful. After all, if Li Qingshan is now in terms of status, in the entire La Liga, it is estimated that he will only rank behind Messi Ronaldo, and as a star, of course, he must have a matching salary. Raiola believes that the price he offered has fully taken into account the situation of Atletico Madrid itself.

And for Atletico Madrid, of course, it will be difficult for them to meet such salary requirements, because in this way, should Griezmann's salary be increased? What about Cork? What about Raul Garcia?

Therefore, when both sides did not let go, the negotiations naturally reached an impasse.

This naturally made Atletico Madrid fans extremely anxious.

In addition to Li Qingshan's contract renewal, another incident has suddenly been revealed in the past few days, a real estate giant from China is ready to spend a huge amount of money to control Atletico Madrid!

This is of course a difficult thing for Atletico Madrid fans to accept. It's hard to say whether a change of ownership of a team will be a blessing or a curse for the team.

It's just that regardless of Atletico Madrid's ultimate future, the most important thing for the team at the moment is, of course, this Champions League game, which is related to a qualification place in the Champions League final.

Sure enough, Robben's injury was just a small trick for Bayern Munich.

After the pre-match starting line-up was announced, Robben's name was prominently in the starting lineup.

Atletico Madrid were not surprised, as they had been prepared for both, and Robben's appearance was just a surprise to the commentators.

"We saw Robben on the list! It seems that the news before the game that he was seriously injured was all smoke bombs! ”

"Robben actually started! This is really something that no one expected. There was a lot of news before the game about his serious injury"

CCTV commentator Duan Xuan is also worried about Atletico Madrid: "Robben's ability is undoubted, and his role at Bayern is irreplaceable. I thought Robben's injury would be good news for Atletico Madrid, but now he is alive and kicking. It seems that his injury was really just a smoke bomb. ”

But in the dressing room at Atletico Madrid, the players were calm.

Simeone pursed his lips and said, "It seems that they are really afraid of us, and such little tricks have been used. ”

'There's nothing to worry about, whether Robben is injured or not, whether he starts or not, it's not something to worry about.

Atletico Madrid are not afraid of Robben, and certainly not afraid of Bayern Munich, as the defending champions, they are still quite confident in themselves.

As the other half-match between Barcelona and Juventus will be played the day after this match, there will be eyes on Barcelona and Torino as well as fans from both sides.

Whether it is Barcelona coach Enrique or Juventus coach Allegri, they are keeping an eye on this game at the moment.

At this time, the TV camera shows players from both sides already waiting in line in the player tunnel, and the TV camera gives a close-up of each player on both sides.

It's a game to decide who will advance to the Champions League final!

At this time, the TV camera switched to a picture of a middle-aged oriental man sitting in the VIP seat of Calderón Stadium.

Of course, Atletico Madrid fans know this person, and now that the Internet is so developed, as soon as the news that the Chinese consortium is preparing to buy Atletico Madrid comes out, fans search for the head of this consortium through an indescribable website.

Of course, for the Chinese audience, this person certainly doesn't need to be searched.

Because this is the famous "earn him 100 million first" real estate down payment Wang Jianling!

"At this time, before the game, there was news that Wang Jianling wanted to control Atletico Madrid, and it seems that the progress of the negotiations between the two sides has reached a very in-depth point at this time, and Wang himself has even visited Calderón Stadium to watch this game, but I don't know if Calderón Stadium will still be this name after this season." According to the TV broadcast footage, Duan Xuan popularized science to some people who did not know the truth before the game began.

Then the players from both sides walked into the playing field under the leadership of the referee team, and everyone's eyes returned to the game itself.

When all the pre-match consciousness was completed, Li Qingshan stepped on the ball under his feet. Contracts, salaries, money. None of this was in his head.

All his attention was on the game itself.

The referee, after checking with his assistants, blew the whistle for the start of the game.

"Good spectators, the referee blows the whistle and the game begins! You're tuning in to the second leg of the 2014-2015 UEFA Champions League semi-finals, where Atletico Madrid hosts Bayern Munich! The score of the first leg between the two sides was 3-2, and Bayern Munich won at home! Although Bayern are leading in the scoreline, Atletico Madrid have two away goals in their hands, and the outcome of this game is not easy to say. ”

"Who's the hand of the deer! Ninety minutes later, see you soon! ”
