Diego Simeone looked at the green field in front of him with his fists clenched.

At the exit of the players' tunnel, players from both teams lined up, sandwiching the referee team in the middle.

There was not much of a surprise in the main line-up of Atletico Madrid.

The goalkeeper is Asenjo, the backline is Felipe, Miranda, Godin and Juanfran are Juanfran in the back, and the midfield duo is Gabi and Suarez, and in order to cope with Southampton's strong midfield, Simeone did not even play Thiago.

The attacking combination up front is Turan, Diego, Adrian, and the single striker is Falcao.

It is also the strongest combination of Atletico Madrid this season.

Relying on this lineup, Atletico Madrid made it all the way to the final of the Europa League

Compared with Atletico Madrid's lineup, Southampton's lineup has been greatly adjusted and changed from the FA Cup final against Liverpool.

The goalkeeper is Manuel Neuer, the backline is David Halaba, Xavi Martinez, Raphael Varane and Carvajal, the midfield is a combination of Stroman, Toni Kroos and Vidal, and the front trident is Neymar, Ibrahimovic and James Rodriguez.

Among them, the most surprising is Tony O Cross's.

When the on-site commentator of the National Stadium read the name of Tony Croos on the stadium radio, the entire National Stadium was in an uproar, and everyone was taken aback.

Didn't it mean that Tony Kroos ended the season early with an injury?

Why is it playing again now?

Could it be that all the previous rumors were smoke bombs deliberately released by Southampton?

But no matter what, the game is about to start, and all thoughts become redundant.

Simeone withdrew his gaze from the pitch, lowered his head, and walked back to the dugout.

Along the way, he hung his head and muttered to himself, as if praying that his team would have better luck tonight.

"Audience friends, here is the scene of the Europa League final from the 2011 season to the 2012 season"

"Located at the National Stadium in Dubucharest, Romania, I'm Charlene Lahri"

"I'm Gary O'Lineker"

"The game is about to start, Gary, what do you think of this fight?"

Gary O. Lineker's voice quickly remembered.

"It's going to be a battle of spear and shield, but Simeone is often very good at surprises, but Bielsa is also very bold, as if before the game, no one expected that Toni Kroos would be"

Charlene Lahri quickly picked up, "This is indeed very unexpected"

In fact, she already knew that this was a smokescreen in Southampton, and even knew more about it.

But before the game, she couldn't say any of that.

"Atletico Madrid are a very tenacious team, they have a tough style, just like when their manager Simeone played, so Bielsa used Toni Kroos, and I guess one thing is to play control."

"But it will also cause some problems, because Atletico Madrid is a La Liga team in the end, and the technique is not too bad, and although Southampton's control is good, it may not be able to control the scene."

"Another point, Toni Kroos's defense has always been a problem, and against the tenacious Atletico Madrid, whether he can hold up the game is also a suspense."

Charlene Lahri smiled, "I'm sure Bielsa must have thought about our doubts, but he still chose Tony Kroos, and there must be a reason for him." ”

"Yes, so it's up to you to see if you can achieve the effect."

Charlene Lahri immediately changed the subject as the camera turned.

'We've seen that now the two sides have finished guessing and Southampton are the first to get the ball.

From the live TV footage, it can be seen that Southampton, wearing the away team shirt, is ready to wait.

The most important battle of the season is already in the air.

When the camera fell on the referee on duty, Charlene Lahri immediately gave a commentary.

"This is an international referee from Germany, Wolfgangtucker."

"Yes, Neuer and Tony Kroos were chatting with him just now, obviously acquaintances," Lineker laughed.

"If Simeone is replaced by Mourinho, I'm afraid there will be another dispute after the game"

Charlene Lahri also smiled, "Who's to say it's not?" ”

While they were talking, the referee blew the whistle for the start of the game.

When Ibrahimovic kicked the ball to Neymar, the Atletico Madrid player immediately pounced.

Good guy, that momentum suddenly made Neymar quickly turn around and kick the ball behind him.

By the time the ball landed at the feet of Xavi Martinez, Atletico Madrid's Falcao and Adrian had already rushed to the back area and rushed directly to Xavi Martinez.

There was no way, Xavi Martinez immediately passed the ball to the right and gave it to Varane.

As soon as the French centre-back stopped the ball, Atletico Madrid immediately turned the gun and pounced on the Frenchman.

Raphael Varane again distributed the ball down the right and fed Carvajal.

The Spanish right-back moves forward and passes to James Rodriguez.

The Colombian tried to get the ball to Ibrahimovic, but Godin was on guard and headed it away.

But the ball didn't go far and Vidal rushed up and headed it back with another header.

But Miranda soon headed it out again.

This time, the ball fell far away.

Raphael Varane rushed up, stopped the ball and passed to Toni Kroos.

But when Toni Kroos tried to pass to Stroman again, the ball was broken.

"The game was fast-paced and straight to the point from the start"

"It can be seen that Atletico Madrid is not to be outdone, and after the opening, they pressed it hard"

"Let's take a look at Atletico Madrid's attack this time, the pass to the left, to Turan, the cross, to the penalty area"

'Neuer burst out of the six-yard box and got ahead of Falcao to get the ball out of the air'

"It's so beautiful, Neuer"

Lineker also laughed, "It can be seen that Neuer is in very good shape"

"Yes, I was very active and brave from the beginning"

Lineker snorted.

Southampton took a goal kick, but during this period, Atletico Madrid grabbed fiercely, and the ball soon fell to the feet of Atletico Madrid.

"Look, that's it" Lineker had a headache.

"Atletico Madrid is a team that doesn't play with you or other tricks with you, he grabs with you, desperately grabs, it's a very headache tactic, and the same is true for Jurgen Klopp at Borussia Dortmund."

"However, unlike Klopp, Simeone has played in Serie A for many years in the professional league and is deeply aware of the Italian defensive system, so his football is tighter and his defense is more layered."

'Bielsa also loves this kind of high defending and pressing, and it's going to be a tough game.

The game also seemed to prove Lineker's judgment.

The two sides played very intensely from the start, with Atletico Madrid and Southampton both holding on to a frantic press, with the ball changing very quickly and the tempo going fast.

The entire middle circle has almost become a gladiatorial arena between the two sides, and the killing is so that people are on their backs.

But just when everyone thought that the scene would fall into a stalemate, suddenly, an Atletico Madrid player successfully broke the ball near the center circle, and the ball fell to Diego's feet.

At this moment, Diego was unguarded and facing the attack.

I saw that the Brazilian midfielder did not hesitate at all, and as soon as he saw Falcao's running, it was directly a long-distance through ball.

Diego's kick was very comfortable, almost just right.

Falcao received the ball before rushing into the Southampton penalty area and took advantage of the situation to find it in the box.

Javi Martinez stuck to Falcao step by step, not daring to relax in the slightest.

As soon as he arrived in the penalty area, Xavi Martinez was in the middle of Falcao and the goal, and Varane also returned to the box, but did not step forward to block, but assisted behind Xavi Martinez.

But I saw Falcao skillfully dribbling the ball, and suddenly one of them buckled the ball behind him, and his body quickly adjusted.

The ball rolled to the left and Javi Martínez immediately realized the danger and shouted, "Oops"

Falcao had already managed to pull out the gap, facing the ball with his left foot, almost without even adjusting, it was just a left-footed shot, the ball was fast and fierce, cutting through a non-obvious arc and straight to the left side of the goal.

The entire National Stadium was stunned

No one expected that the first shot of the game would be Atletico Madrid

The fans of the Sheets Army cheered with excitement, as if they had already seen the goal in their eyes

But just when the ball with a fierce spin was about to try to crash into the goal line, it suddenly stretched out a pair of hands and a big slap, and blocked it between the ball and the goal.

The ball touched the hand, turned in a direction, and went out of the baseline

There was a clear cry of the aftermath in the National Stadium, and many people breathed a sigh of relief.

The angle of the ball was too tricky, and the shot was too clever

Neuer got up from the ground, still watching the ball out of the baseline with palpitations.

Fortunately, he was prepared, otherwise, the ball would have been secure.

Who would have thought that Falcao would be able to shoot at such a tricky angle in such a situation, and be so accurate

It's horrible

It's horrible

Falcao looked at Neuer with a wry smile.

He originally thought that he had it, but he didn't expect that this goalkeeper would react, it was not simple

"I'm sorry" Harvey Martinez turned his head and looked at Neuer apologetically.

"Be careful, he can finish this kind of high-quality shot with both feet" Neuer raised his hand with an expression of no contemporary, but did not forget to remind him.

This kind of foot will be the most troublesome

Tony Kroos only ran to the front of the big penalty area at this time, and his heart was very mixed.

It was he who didn't block Diego at the first time, which gave the Brazilian a chance to pass calmly.

If this goal does score, then he will be the team's number one sinner

Thinking of this, Tony Croos also felt very uncomfortable.

If it had been for Nemanja Matic, the ball would not have been passed so easily

At the thought of Nemanja Matic, Tony Kroos felt a sense of pressure.

Pressure from competitors

So, he quickly regained his morale and began to prepare for Atletico Madrid's corners.

And Bielsa on the sidelines shouted loudly.

Signal Tony O Kroos to be careful and not miss Diego again, while also telling Stroman and Vidaldo to pay attention to protecting Tony Kroos.

The Germans have a lot of tasks in this game, and it depends on him whether he can win Atletico Madrid

After being shouted at by the manager, Toni Kroos calmed down.

At this time, you can't be in a hurry, you have to be calm

Only by being calm can you defeat your opponent, and you will be in a hurry

As the core of the team's midfield, if he is in a hurry, the team will be in chaos

I have to say that Tony O Cross's mental element zhì is really quite good.

Soon he stepped out of the shadow of the mistake and looked at Diego, as if to say, come on

That's when the corner kick came
