The first red card of the Club World Cup appears! Atletico Madrid defender was sent off and was brutally massacred 0-4 in the first game

On June 16, in the first round of Group B of the Club World Cup group stage, the new Champions League champion Paris Saint-Germain defeated Atletico Madrid 4-0, making a good start. In this game, Fabian, Vitinia, Mayulu and Li Gangren made contributions to Paris Saint-Germain respectively. Atletico Madrid defender Langley was dissatisfied with the penalty in the 78th minute, and the two yellows turned red and were sent off. He also became the first player to receive a red card in the New World Club Cup.

A total of 32 teams participated in this Club World Cup. Four teams, Paris Saint-Germain, Atletico Madrid, Botafogo and Seattle Gulfmen, were assigned to Group B. Among them, Paris Saint-Germain is the Champions League champion of the new UEFA Champions League, while Botafogo is the 2024 South American Liberators Cup champion. Coupled with Atletico Madrid coached by Simeone, the qualifying competition in this group has become 3-choose 2. In this case, the first round of Paris and Atletico Madrid became a game that both sides must win.

However, facing the new Champions League champion Paris Saint-Germain, the old Atletico Madrid is simply unable to compete. In the whole game, Paris Saint-Germain had a ball possession rate of up to 74%, with 16 shots, of which the number of shots was as high as 11. On the other hand, Atletico Madrid only shot 5 times in the game and shot 1 time in a direct shot. In terms of fouls, Atletico Madrid won 7 yellow cards, of which Lenglet won two, and was eventually sent off by a red card, becoming the first player to get a red card in the New World Club Cup. Atletico Madrid, which is not superior in strength, conceded 2 more goals in the last moment of the second half when 10 players faced each other. Especially in the last stage of injury stoppage time, Lenormann handball in the penalty area, VAR intervened and awarded a penalty kick, and Li Gangren took the penalty and easily hit it, putting an end to the game. For Atletico Madrid, it was obviously an unacceptable result to suffer a 0-4 defeat in the first game. Before the game, Atletico Madrid chairman Cerrezzo delivered a speech at the "Atletico House" in Los Angeles. He said that Atletico Madrid has a strong team and will strive to win the Club World Cup and can't wait to fight with European champion Paris. Now, Atletico Madrid's first game defeated Paris Saint-Germain 0-4, which shows the strength gap between this La Liga giant and the top European team. Nowadays, Atletico Madrid has to consider not the issue of competing for the Club World Cup, but how to break through this group. Four days later, Atletico Madrid will face the Seattle Bayerman and the group will face South American champion Bottafogo in the last round.
