Chapter 299: Double braces get off to a good start
After the score was rewritten as 0-1, Atletico Madrid played more confidently.
Although Mallorca knows that they are not as good as Atletico Madrid, they are only one goal behind after all, and this is their home court, they are still on the verge of being relegated, and it is the first game of the new year.
They don't want to lose.
Therefore, after the game restarted, Mallorca stepped up their attack and tried to score an equalizer.
However, not only did their offense fail to break through Atletico Madrid's goal, but they were quickly counterattacked by the Sheets.
In the 27th minute, Raul Garcia got the ball during the counterattack and spotted Joan Chen's running position. He suddenly passed the ball directly over the heads of all Mallorca defenders and landed at the edge of the penalty area.
Qiao Anchen, who was still on the right just now, made a diagonal pass like lightning to prevent offside, and received the ball behind Mallorca defender Jeromel.
Although it took a little time to catch the ball, Jeromel caught up with him, causing personal interference.
But Qiao Anchen always protected the ball and did not let Jeromel steal the ball. He took the ball inside the arc of the penalty area and faced the attacking goalkeeper, and hit a far corner.
Goalkeeper Awat pounced but failed to touch the ball and could only watch in despair as the ball hit the net.
The commentators all shouted excitedly:
“goooooooooooooooooooooooal…”
"In again!!!"
"The first goal of the new year, Qiao Anchen scored his first goal in 2013."
"Moreover, this is already Qiao Anchen's 38th consecutive La Liga game with a goal, killing all La Liga teams in one year."
"There are only 38 rounds of La Liga in total, but Qiao Anchen scored in 38 consecutive games."
"While the record of consecutive goals in other leagues is still more than ten games, Qiao Anchen's record of consecutive goals in La Liga has approached the 40-game mark."
"It's unbelievable."
"I don't know any team that can stop Qiao Anchen from scoring consecutive goals."
"It seems difficult at the moment, because all La Liga teams have been scored by Qiao Anchen, and it turns out that no team can stop Qiao Anchen."
“I don’t know to what extent Qiao Anchen will refresh his La Liga consecutive scoring record.”
The first goal of the new year continued to set the world record for consecutive goals. Qiao Anchen was also very happy. While celebrating with his teammates, he also received another 10 million experience reward that broke the world record.
Unfortunately, the annual total goal record no longer exists. Only when his total goals this year exceeds last year's 117 goals will he be rewarded with 10 million experience points each time he breaks the record.
The game continues.
Through this counterattack and conceding the ball, Mallorca may have finally recognized the strength gap between the two sides and the horror of Qiao Anchen, and did not dare to attack rashly. It temporarily stabilized its defense through the numerical advantage, and there was no more in the first half.
Lost the ball.
But when the time came to the 53rd minute of the second half, Qiao Anchen took the ball from the top of the penalty area and attracted several players to block him. Qiao Anchen decisively passed the ball out and passed it to the right rib of the penalty area.
Right back Juan Forlan entered the penalty area unmarked, fired at the ball without stopping, and hit the goal with a heavy shot.
The ball hit the goal instantly like a cannonball. Goalkeeper Awat didn't even have time to make a save before he saw the ball fly into the goal. This shows how powerful and fast the ball was.
Atletico Madrid scored another goal to expand the score. The goal was by right back Juan Fran, and the assist was by Qiao Anchen.
Qiao Anchen has already had two assists and a goal. With one more goal to go, Qiao Anchen can score a goal, score two assists, and get additional experience rewards.
Therefore, although the 3-0 score had sealed the victory and Simeone began to make successive substitutions and adjustments and slowed down the attack, Qiao Anchen did not stop pursuing goals.
Even though Mallorca has mentally admitted defeat and seriously piled up people inside and outside the penalty area to defend, Joan Chen's full shooting power still gives him the ability to shoot long distances to break the dense defense.
After trying several shots that were blocked by the opponent, saved by the goalkeeper, or deflected off the post, in the 75th minute, Qiao Anchen finally made a successful shot outside the penalty area.
After he collided with Arda Turan outside the penalty area, he took a powerful long shot from a distance of about 27 meters from the goal.
With full shooting power, coupled with a collision with Alda Turan and avoiding all the opponent's defensive players, Qiao Anchen's long shot showed the best effect without any interference.
Finally, according to data from the statistics company, Qiao Anchen's shot reached 97 kilometers per hour, which was close to the 100 kilometers mark.
The ball passed through the penalty area like a sharp arrow and was fortunately not blocked by any Mallorca defender. It successfully avoided the fingers of goalkeeper Abate and flew into the upper right corner of the goal.
In the first game of the New Year in 2013, Qiao Anchen successfully scored and assisted twice, helping Atletico Madrid lock the score at 4-0, and he also received additional experience rewards.
Afterwards, because Atletico Madrid took a big lead, his teammates did not have a strong desire to attack, and Qiao Anchen was guarded tightly again, and finally no one scored again.
After 3 minutes of stoppage time, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game. Atletico Madrid beat Mallorca 4-0 at home and got a good start in the first game of the New Year in 2013.
However, because Barcelona also won the game and continued to remain unbeaten, Atletico Madrid could only continue to be ranked second with a difference of 1 point.
No matter what, the Sheets Army can no longer lose points and make mistakes. They must continue to hold on to the points and pursue them closely in order to recover the points they lost to Barcelona in the first half of the season in the direct dialogue in the second half of the season.
Ligue 1 and Bundesliga have a relatively long winter break and there are no games this weekend. However, Serie A, like La Liga, has resumed the first round of the new year.
In the 19th round of Serie A, Inter Milan defeated Udinese 0-3 in an away game, getting a bad start to the new year.
Juventus, the top team, lost 1-2 at home to Sampdoria, which was even more incredible than Inter Milan's away defeat.
After all, this is the home court of the Bianconeri, and Sampdoria is ranked last. It can be seen that there is really no fixed score in football. Even the side that seems to be stronger may not necessarily win.
Second-place Naples defeated Roma 4-1 at home. The score was also an upset. Maybe it was just the beginning of the New Year and some players were still immersed in the joyful atmosphere of Christmas and New Year's Day and did not pay attention.
