Chapter 198 Avenger Wenger vs Mourinho 2 (Transitional Text
"Hanging in the air?!!!"
"This is an opportunity!"
"Volley!"
"The ball goes in! Xia Qi scores a hat trick!"
"Wow! The Calderon Stadium was filled with applause! Atletico Madrid fans stood up and applauded Xia Qi! Xia Qi conquered them!!"
On the sidelines, Simeone sat upright in the coaching seat with his face buried in his hands.
He was really ashamed to face everyone. The fans who loved him deeply "changed their hearts" tonight and actually applauded his opponent.
The bloody 1:4 on the LED screen above the stadium told everyone that the game was over.
With less than twenty minutes left, Atletico had to score four goals to advance, which was an impossible task, especially since they were one man short on the field.
After the Atletico Madrid fans stood up and applauded, the Atletico Madrid players lost their fighting spirit.
On the contrary, Arsenal was inspired by the opponent's fans and became more and more courageous as the game went on.
In the 80th minute, Balotelli scored again with an assist from Walcott, successfully scoring his second goal and changing the score to 1:5!
Seeing victory in sight, Wenger and Balotelli immediately clocked out.
However, Arsenal's good luck in scoring goals did not end. 58 seconds before the end of the game, De Bruyne and Walcott switched positions on the right side of the penalty area and scored into the empty goal.
Atletico Madrid, who tied with Arsenal 3:3 in the last round, was massacred by Arsenal at their home ground.
1:6 was the final score.

Post-match press conference:
Arsenal manager Wenger: "It was a great game tonight and our players performed very well.
Facing the powerful Atletico Madrid, they showed tenacious fighting spirit and superb skills.
Especially Xia Qi's goal secured the victory for us.
There is no doubt about that red card, it may have been the fuse for Atletico's defeat, but it is not an excuse for their failure.
Finally, I want to thank my players for their great efforts. Of course, the victory of this game is also inseparable from the support of the fans, who are always our solid backing. "
Atletico coach Simeone: "It was a disappointing game, a tough defeat at home.
The opponent's performance is really commendable, they took advantage of our mistakes.
But I'm proud of my players, they gave it their all.
We encountered some difficulties during the game, including personnel shortage and players' poor condition, but these are not excuses for our loss.
We will seriously sum up our experience and lessons and strive to achieve better results in future competitions."
After learning that in another match, Real Madrid eliminated Dortmund and successfully advanced to the final.
Simeone responded sarcastically: "Our match against Arsenal was the real Champions League final.
If you watched this game, don't waste your money going to the Stadium of Light, it will be a boring game, Arsenal will dominate the game and win the championship again. "
Simeone's remarks made the extremely powerful Real Madrid very angry.
Unlike the original time and space, this year's Real Madrid has almost no shortcomings.
The forward line is the BBC combination, the midfield is the ceremonial midfielder, the defender is the world's number one defender Ramos, and the goalkeeper is the world's number one goalkeeper Casillas.
There is no obvious shortcoming at all, making it almost invincible.
After learning of Simeone's remarks, Real Madrid coach Ancelotti told the media:
"What right do losers have to judge our game?
If it weren't for injuries, if it weren't for the greater focus on the Champions League, we would already be at the top of the La Liga standings.
"He said our games are boring? That's ridiculous! Our Real Madrid games are always full of passion and charm, and every moment is enough to make people's blood boil!
As for whether Arsenal can dominate the game and retain the title, that will be determined only after a real fight on the pitch."
Real Madrid's top star Cristiano Ronaldo also expressed his dissatisfaction:
“I think everyone is very clear about how strong our squad is.
On the front line, my teammates and I will use the goals to prove everything; the guys in the midfield have the ability to control the game; the brothers in the back line are as solid as a rock. We have no obvious weaknesses, we are invincible!
We have unparalleled strength and team spirit. We will go all out in every game and never let our opponents take advantage of us."
"Simeone is better off focusing on his own team instead of elevating himself by belittling others. We at Real Madrid will shut him up with practical actions!"
Finally, Ronaldo said emotionally:
"Lisbon is not only a beautiful city, it is also the place where my football dream began. As everyone knows, Sporting Lisbon is my home team.
In June 09, I was fortunate to join the Real Madrid family. On that day, I made a promise to win the highest honor in Europe for this team.
Two months later, I will fulfill my promise where my dream began.
Glory to Real Madrid and Sporting Lisbon, their child is back..."
"Back to where the dream began..." This is so sensational. Ronaldo moved thousands of boys and girls.
Many people support Ronaldo to win the championship, including many fans of Atletico Madrid, Barcelona and Arsenal.
Of course Xia Qi and others disagreed. Why should I pay for your dream?
Xia Qi left a message on his Twitter without any hesitation: Mr. Ronaldo: Do you know that you are very beautiful? So please don’t think too much about yourself.
At the same time, this passage was accompanied by an illustration of the earth's rotation, meaning that the earth will continue to rotate no matter who is away.
Taking advantage of the hot topic, various media outlets launched predictions for the 2013-2014 Champions League champion, with percent of fans hoping it will be Real Madrid.
Therefore, Real Madrid's official paper media - Spain's "Marca" launched the "Realizing Dreams with Ronaldo" column, which will record Ronaldo's football life in the next two months.
Once this column was launched, it achieved excellent results, and the sales of Marca immediately surpassed its old rival AS.
Unwilling to be overtaken by its old rival, AS chose to cooperate with British media to launch the TV program "Dynasty Founders".
This is a TV program, and its reach is wider than that of print media.
Arsenal is the only club in the top five European leagues that can win the Grand Slam. Arsenal has won the Community Shield, the League Cup, and is also making progress in the FA Cup, the Premier League and the Champions League.
There is no shortage of hot spots at all.
The program is divided into 10 episodes in total, each episode introduces two Arsenal players.
The first episode of the show featured Wenger and Wilshere, and the ratings on the day of its broadcast were the highest in Europe.
Wilshere said on TV that he is training to return from injury and hopes to catch up with the World Cup.
The former crown prince of Kearney burst into tears during the show. He said: "The Champions League was once our only pursuit. Now building a dynasty is the common goal of all of us. I am grateful that I am on this road of struggle..."
The love-hate relationship between the two media outlets has kept the heat on the Champions League final rising, but for Arsenal, the match against Real Madrid is too far away.
Arsenal begin preparations for domestic competitions.
First, Arsenal beat Liverpool 2:0 in the fifth round of the FA Cup, and Chelsea beat Manchester City 1:0.
In this way, Wenger's Arsenal and Mourinho's Chelsea will decide the champion of this season's English Cup at Wembley Stadium in two weeks.
If Arsenal wins the championship in the end, it will be Arsenal's 11th FA Cup.
If Chelsea wins the title, it will be their 8th.
What interests the media is the love-hate relationship between Wenger and Mourinho.
However, Wenger and Mourinho had no time to pay attention to the media's fanning the flames.
Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester City started their own points-grabbing mode in the league. In the double-match week, Chelsea and Manchester City won four consecutive games, and Arsenal won five consecutive games. (Premier League 27th round make-up game.)
In this way, Arsenal returned to the top of the standings, but the gap with Chelsea and Manchester City did not widen, and they were only one point ahead.
This weekend, Arsenal faced the FA Cup final at Wembley Stadium.
...
...
The FA Cup, full name of the English Football Association Cup, is the oldest football competition in the world and a hotbed of upsets, with classic matches where the underdog defeats the stronger side often taking place.
The FA Cup final is held at Wembley Stadium.
In addition to the game itself, what interests the media and fans is the "love story" between the two head coaches.
These two are actually pure football players.
It was just the completely different football philosophies and personality differences that turned the two strangers into irreconcilable enemies.
Mourinho is a defensive player, and his philosophy is that a small victory of "1:0" is the most perfect victory in the world.
Wenger was the first head coach to inject long pass technology into the Premier League. At that time, the famous Red Devils Manchester United was essentially a long pass.
The romantic feelings of the French and the perseverance of Arsenal's tradition have created the myth of invincibility and the glory of Arsenal.
In terms of their feelings towards the club, the two are also moving towards the same direction.
Mourinho positioned himself as a "worker" who constantly asked his boss for concessions, discounts and promotions in order to achieve good results, like a vampire.
Wenger is a great guardian of the club. He cares more about the club's inheritance and development than the team's performance, and he moves forward silently with a heavy burden.
The two have very different coaching styles and personalities. One is unruly and the other is gentle, but they both have a heart that says "I am right and you are wrong".
All these things led to the two of them being at loggerheads.
However, in the first battle with Mourinho, Wenger was undoubtedly a loser.
Before Mourinho's first term, the Premier League was a history of struggle between Ferguson and Wenger for nearly a decade.
They are both successful!
Ferguson continued the Red Devils' dominance in the Premier League, while Wenger took Arsenal to new heights.
In the first three years of the 2000s, Arsenal's explosive offensive style swept the world and won over numerous fans. It is ranked third among the world's most popular clubs, second only to Real Madrid and Barcelona.
The Red Devils Manchester United only has more fans in Asia, but they are completely defeated in Europe and South America.
However, a Portuguese came to Stamford Bridge and with a light-hearted "the special one", he drove Wenger off the mountain.
From then on, the Premier League entered the red and blue era from the red duo.
In Mourinho's first period, Wenger was a loser!
Mourinho’s second phase has just begun. Wenger cannot be said to be the winner but he is definitely the leader.
Therefore, Wenger's emphasis on the FA Cup is not only the Grand Slam needed for the dynasty, but also the self-affirmation of the Avenger.
Under the influence of this emotion, Xia Qi and others underwent rigorous training and faced the decisive battle!
