　　 On the day of April 21, the Atletico Madrid team came to Gelsenkirchen under the leadership of the marshal Simeone. The battle between the two dark horse teams can be said to be about to start.

Atletico President Cerezo, who came with the team, was very confident in an interview with a German reporter: "We will not be eliminated by Schalke 04, whether it is from the historical record or the overall strength of the team. of."

　　 "And every time Atletico Madrid reaches the Champions League semi-finals in the history, they will not lose to a simple opponent..."

This is the fourth time in the history of Atletico Madrid that they have reached the semi-finals of the Champions League, and it has been 40 years since they reached the semi-finals of the Champions League last time, but in the previous three Champions Leagues, it is not ordinary to eliminate Atletico. opponent.

In the 58/59 season, Atletico Madrid and Schalke participated in the Champions League for the first time, and then Atletico Madrid stepped on Schalke to reach the semi-finals, and then lost to their rivals in the same city. At that time, they were completing the Champions League five consecutive championships. Real Madrid.

Speaking of it, Atletico lost a 1:2 away game, and returned to home to win a 1:0. However, since the UEFA Champions League did not have the rule of winning away goals at that time, even if the two sides tied with 2:2, then At the rematch on another day, Atletico was eliminated only 1:2.

　　 If there was a rule for away goals at that time, it should be Atletico Madrid knocking out Real Madrid.

　　70/71 UEFA Champions League, Atletico have reached the semi-finals of the UEFA Champions League for the second time. This time they met Ajax led by Cruyff, the Eredivisie hegemon in the Champions League for the third consecutive time.

　　 Even in the face of strong Ajax, Atletico won the opponent 1-0 at home, but failed to withstand the second round and was overturned by the opponent 3:0.

Then in the 73/74 season, Atletico reached the Champions League semi-finals for the third time. This time they met the Celtics in the semi-finals, a not-so-strong opponent, so they successfully defeated each other 2:0. Advance to the final.

　　 Then they met Bayern Munich in the final, led by Beckenbauer, Ged Müller, and others, who are completing the Bundesliga South Stars who are completing their three consecutive Champions League titles.

This time Atletico Madrid lost even more injustice. They prepared for the final. In the final, they relied on a tenacious defense to make Bayern nothing to do. The two sides battled 0:0 in 90 minutes, and then they took advantage of Bayern's panic in the overtime to take the lead. Goal, but when the overtime was about to end, the Bayern defender made a shocking long shot to equalize.

　　 If according to today's rules of the game, then there will be a penalty shootout, a basically 50-50 method of winning. Even if your Bayern strength is obviously superior, there is no advantage in the penalty shootout.

　　 Under such circumstances, the strong team is prone to psychological fluctuations due to accidental draws, resulting in abnormal performance in the penalty shootout, and many of them have lost the championship. Starting

The most typical is the Champions League final in 1986. In the final, Barcelona, ​​which was obviously stronger, was drawn by the Romanian team Bucharest Stars 0:0, which led to the explosion of the Barcelona team's mentality in the penalty shootout, and there was an exaggerated four free throws. Lost, the Bucharest star made two of four free throws and directly won the championship.

　　 You must know that Barcelona has always been labelled as technical football. Their basic skills of players are very solid, but when the mentality explodes, they can't make a penalty.

　　 But unfortunately, in European football in 1974, penalty kicks had not yet been invented. When this kind of situation is still tied after overtime, the way to deal with it is to rematch another day.

　　 So in the rematch, Bayern, who was significantly stronger, got ready and directly slaughtered Atletico Madrid 4:0 and won the championship of the year.

Before the birth of the penalty shootout, the rules of football were obviously more favorable for the strong teams. At least this is the case for the rematch on the day of the tie. At the same time, it also prevents some weak teams from relying on reasonable tactics. Upset counterattack.

　　 It is difficult to say whether the two rules are better or worse.

　　 Atletico have reached the semi-finals of the Champions League for the first three times in their team history. They all lost to a very strong team, Real Madrid for five consecutive championships, Ajax for three consecutive championships, and Bayern for three consecutive championships.

　　 The only three teams in the history of the Champions League for three consecutive championships, all let Atletico Madrid hit them, and they have enough back.

　　 That's why their chairman said that Atletico will not lose to Schalke, nor to weak teams.

　　 Faced with such a statement, Li Chenglong also responded in front of the reporter.

　　 "Reassure them, Schalke will let them get what they want."

　　 "Trust me, after this season, Schalke will become a legend."

　　 "Lost to the legend, it will not embarrass them."

　　 Jackie Lee said that Schalke will become a legend this season, and that is undoubtedly saying that Schalke will eventually win the Champions League.

　　 Only if you win the Champions League can you be called a legend.

If a team like Schalke 04 can really win the Champions League, especially in the cracks of many superpowers to steal the championship~www.NovelMTL.com~, it is not because the superpowers are all out of the game. The champion who arrived is truly a legend.
