The League won four rounds in advance, and situ Yunbing had enough space to sprint at the end of the season.

Liverpool have plenty of time to rest before the first leg of the Champions League semi-final.

In the 35th round of the league, Liverpool visited Norwich and situ Yunbing sent a full reserve team to fight.

Norwich is ranked third from bottom in the league and needs to fight for relegation. They may think Liverpool are here to send warmth, but Liverpool are doing well away from home.

Sterling's performance improved significantly after stu Yunbing's beating, while mbape and Arnold also played well after unloading the pressure.

In order to get all three points, Norwich adopted a very positive offensive attitude at home, and the game became unrestrained and fierce, which was very good-looking.

Finally, the two teams fought together in a confrontation!

3:3.

No one cares about Liverpool's performance in the league. Now the focus is on Liverpool's future in the Champions League.

After 35 rounds of the league, Fleet Street began to build momentum for the Champions League in the middle of the week.

Atletico Madrid reached the top four of the Champions League for the first time under the leadership of bandit coach Simone, but they obviously look forward to the final. Moreover, in their style, they are really a little careless. They don't give anyone face. At the same time, they are not afraid!

In the first leg, Liverpool will go to Calderon stadium as a guest. Before leaving, situ Yunbing attended the pre match press conference.

Asked by a Spanish reporter at the scene: "is there a Madrid Derby in the Champions League final this season?"

The off-line meaning is that Liverpool were eliminated by Atletico Madrid, while Real Madrid also eliminated Bayern Munich.

Situ Yunbing nodded and said: "of course, it's possible. Now everyone in the top four has a chance to reach the final. I can't rule out the possibility of meeting Atletico Madrid and Real Madrid in the final.

Just like when the Champions League group match just started, if you ask me if there will be four teams from the Premier League in the top four of the Champions League, I will certainly say yes. This is a probability problem that people with a little IQ can judge. I don't think you need to ask me. "

Spanish reporters may be interfering with situ Yunbing's mentality, but Fleet Street reporters rarely become a little pragmatic.

"Simone's Atletico Madrid is very good at restraining strong teams. In La Liga, they let Real Madrid and Barcelona taste the defeat. Will Liverpool make a new tactical design according to Atletico Madrid's tactical style?"

Situ Yunbing said seriously after a moment of silence: "first of all, Atletico Madrid must have a certain strength to reach the top four of the Champions League. At this stage, there are no weak teams in the top four of the Champions League, and so are the top eight.

So it is not surprising that Atletico Madrid has its own excellence.

But in terms of team style, I think Atletico Madrid is relatively passive. Their style is to curb the opponent's play and win the opportunity to beat the opponent on this basis.

Therefore, it is difficult for Liverpool to design new tactics for Atletico Madrid, because the opponent is better at attacking later.

I think Liverpool's tactical idea should be to try to give full play to our advantages and break the blockade and restriction imposed on us by Atletico Madrid as much as possible.

In fact, no matter what method or tactics, the game will not be simple and easy. After all, it is the Champions League semi-final, not the group game. There is no such disparity between the strong and the weak. "

Next, the reporter asked an interesting question.

"If I remember correctly, your Champions League debut was to visit Calderon stadium to challenge Atletico Madrid, right? Will it be a different feeling for you to lead Liverpool to Calderon this time? "

Situ Yunbing smiled, nodded and said, "yes, I always remember some landmark games and moments. Everyone's past creates the present, and people always like to say to put down the past and face the future, but I like the opposite. The past reminds me what I should do to become better now.

Calderon stadium is the place where my big dream began. When I led Monaco to that stadium for the first time, no one in Europe would think that Monaco would finally walk from Calderon stadium to Bernabeu stadium that season. Although the distance between the two stadiums is not far away, Monaco has walked for nine months, which is a road shining with miracles!

So I will say to myself, don't be distracted and distracted at Calderon stadium.

I will never hope that the dream once born there will be shattered in the same place! "

The reporters at the scene nodded one after another.

In fact, if you follow up and report situ Yunbing's words and summarize his coaching experience, you can understand why the new generation of coaches admire him!

Because many people can't fight the world like Mourinho, nor can they have the background of Guardiola's birth in a famous family, while situ Yunbing has gone from weak to strong step by step. All he has experienced will be experienced by other new generation coaches.

And he also gave a way out of the dilemma. Of course, he has not experienced the difficulties in Monaco in recent years, because he is becoming more and more excellent and stronger. An excellent and powerful head coach will not let himself struggle in the dilemma repeatedly. That is the story that failed coaches often experience.

Atletico Madrid coach Simone was extremely humble before the game.

When Spanish reporters were interfering with situ Yunbing, reporters from fleet street were also making trouble for Simone in Madrid.

But in the face of reporters' sharp questions, Simone did not boast hard.

Instead, he prevaricated it in a joking way.

"Of course we may lose to Liverpool by three or four goals. Of course, we may win them by three or four goals, but I will be satisfied to win two goals."

The reporters present laughed.

Simone can lead the team to today's height. It is impossible without two brushes.

The reason why Fleet Street reporters are not friendly to Simone is not the upcoming war between Liverpool and Atletico Madrid.

But it comes from the gratitude and resentment between Simone and Beckham at the world cup in France. No matter how difficult Simone is, it can always relieve Beckham's fans.

Looking forward to the game, Simone said: "last season, people said that Real Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern Munich are European Super teams. Now I think Liverpool should be added!

This is an affirmation of their strength, but the super team is not invincible. Otherwise, Barcelona will appear in the top four of the Champions League, not Atletico Madrid.

We want to reach the Champions League final is no less difficult than to create a miracle result, but I think we are full of faith. We have never been satisfied and never thought that the top four is enough. In fact, on the contrary, if we fall in the top eight and top 16 of the Champions League, there may not be too much waves in our hearts. We just tell ourselves that we will continue to work hard next season, Strive to get a better result.

But when we are in the top four of the Champions League and there are only two games from the Champions League final, who will tell ourselves that we can be satisfied at this time? Won't you regret even being eliminated?

No, it will be more painful. The only way we can avoid the pain is to advance to the finals, and the way to alleviate the pain is to go all out! "

The Champions League semi-final between Liverpool and Atletico Madrid will certainly not attract as much attention as Bayern Munich and Real Madrid, but the European media generally believe that perhaps the semi-finals between Liverpool and Atletico Madrid will be a more interesting encounter!

On the evening of April 22, Liverpool arrived at the hotel in Madrid. They came to Madrid one day in advance to face the game in a better state.

Perhaps the outside world pays more attention to the strength of Liverpool's overall strength, but ignores that they have completed the defending of the Premier League at this time node. At the same time, there has been rotation in the league. The overall physical fitness and state of the team have been maintained very well, which is also one of the secrets of situ Yunbing's continued success for many years.

Match day.

After taking the bus through downtown Madrid, situ Yunbing is full of longing for it. Since he came to Madrid, he thought more than once that if one day he was in charge of the Madrid team, he might stay here until he retired.

The reason why Madrid attracts players all over the world is not only that there are fantastic noble teams here, but also because of Madrid's environment, climate, prosperity and fashion of the city and so on.

However, at present, situ Yunbing has no chance to coach in Madrid.

When the Liverpool bus drove into the Calderon stadium, the Liverpool players completely abandoned their relaxed mentality and began to cheer up to prepare for the war at the critical moment of the season!

Before the game, the preparations went step by step. Situ Yunbing sat in the dressing room with the feeling of revisiting his hometown. Maybe four and a half years ago, when he sat here, he was just curious to explore European football, but now he sits here with the satisfaction of the conqueror.

The card system that initially helped him to the present has almost become a tool with lower and lower work efficiency, because his team is strong enough, but the card system still plays an obvious role in training new people, which also makes situ Yunbing have a new understanding and change in his view of the role of the card system.

He used cards for the players step by step. Now situ Yunbing still uses clean cards directly. There is no need to make any reserves, even in the Champions League.

But he still holds an experience card in his hand. He doesn't know who to give it to. It gives him a headache.

After thinking about it, he decided to keep the experience card as mbape's birthday gift at the end of this year.

Before the game, situ Yunbing didn't make an impassioned speech in the dressing room. In fact, today he came to the away game with the mentality of seeing the moves.

The style of Atletico Madrid is definitely an alternative in European football.
