The 19th round of the 2004/2005 La Liga season is over. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Leaders Barcelona beat Real Sociedad 1-0 at home, with the Catalan giants not scoring the only goal of the game until the end of the second half.

And the Galacticos Real Madrid defeated Zaragoza 3-1 at home, and the 'alien' Ronaldo scored twice, and this super goalscorer with average performance in the first half of the season began to burst out of his power.

Defending champions Valencia were held to a 0-0 draw away by Osasuna.

Sevilla, which lost to Sporting Gijón in the last round, lost to Málaga, the third place from the bottom of the league, in this round of the league, which caused a big upset, and also continued a strange law in La Liga this season: the strong teams that were defeated by Sporting Gijón did not perform well in the later rounds, as if they lost to Sporting Gijón, and the team's spirit was lost all of a sudden.

In this way, after 19 rounds of the league, the situation in the La Liga standings has changed dramatically.

Barcelona is in first place with 12 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses with 40 points.

After Sporting Gijón slaughtered Atletico Madrid 7-2 at home, the record is 10 wins, 4 draws and 5 losses, accumulating 34 points, and the ranking has improved to second place in the league!

After a draw in this round, Valencia is ranked third in the league with 9 wins, 6 draws and 4 losses and 33 points.

Super giants Real Madrid, the results rebounded, with 10 wins, 2 draws, 7 losses and 32 points in the fourth place in the league, which is also the first time this season that the Galaxy Battleship has ranked in the top four of the league. Luxemberg's team began to explode with the heritage of the giants.

Sevilla FC suffered an upset defeat to Malaga and finished fifth in the league with 31 points from 9 wins, 4 draws and 6 losses.

All the people who look at the current La Liga standings, look at the second-place Sporting Gijón, and look at the giants such as Valencia and Real Madrid below this team, they don't know what to say.

Sporting Gijón is the dark horse of La Liga this season, they have known it for a long time, but what everyone didn't expect was that this dark horse was still so dazzling in the middle of the league schedule.

***********

What Sporting Gijón was like more than a year ago, it is no secret in Spanish football now, with the sudden rise of this team, reports about Sporting Gijón have been full of newspapers, a team that was almost in the Spanish C2 League last season, miraculously broke out, promoted to La Liga, and also won the Spanish Copa del Rey, and then as a promoted horse, now the schedule process, is the second place in La Liga, and the League Cup has also entered the knockout stage!

Such a result, such a change, can be described by the word 'magical'!

All eyes are on one name, Leon!

This young Chinese coach can be said to be the biggest contributor to such a magical change in Sporting Gijón!

When the media was discussing the massacre of Atletico Madrid by Sporting Gijón and ranking second in the league, the news that Atletico Madrid owner Angel Hill was interested in poaching Ángel Hill to coach Atletico Madrid broke the news that Atletico de Madrid was deliberately poached by Atletico Madrid, and for a while, it became the most eye-catching event in the entire Spanish football world.

The current results and rankings of Sporting Gijón are the biggest foundation to support this fierce material!

Results are everything!

Although Leon's current resume is thin, it is so glamorous that the Spanish media and fans, when they learned the news, were first surprised, but then felt that it seemed understandable: the Chinese seemed to be really qualified to coach the giants.

***********

The front page of the newspaper As, "It is clear that the crushing defeat at the Estadio Elmolinon has completely angered the Hill family, and Ferrando's dismissal is an inevitable consequence, and it is surprising that Angel Hill's name is among the names of Leon, a Chinese who is not yet 30 years old, now has the opportunity to coach the team he has just led to beat...... A Chinese becoming the head coach of a giant team like Atletico Madrid, this picture, just imagining, feels incredible. ”

The local media in Gijón also reported on this matter, and the media in other parts of Spain are discussing this matter, and even have the intention of adding fuel to the fire, the local media in Gijón are worried, they know better than those media the importance of Li Ang to Sporting Gijón, if the current Sporting Gijón is built by Li Ang, it is not too much to say that he is the optimus prime of Sporting Gijón, the media and fans of Gijón are worried that the head coach of the team will really be attracted by the invitation of the giants, and they are worried that Li Ang will leave Sporting Gijón, after all, compared to a giant team like Atletico Madrid, Sporting Gijón is much worse in any wayAlthough Sporting Gijón is now ranked much higher than Atletico Madrid, this is the reason why Madrid's giants poached Leon.

The incident even caused a frenzy of coverage in the Chinese domestic media.

Although Li Ang is now coaching Sporting Gijón and has achieved excellent results, in the eyes of people, a 'grassroots team' like Sporting Gijón cannot be compared with a giant club like Atletico Madrid.

After the news of Atletico Madrid's intention to invite Li Ang to coach was reported on domestic sports websites and major media, the domestic media and fans can be said to be boiling.

A Chinese head coach coaching a big team is something they never dreamed of. This is much more difficult than the Chinese players playing for the big teams, although the latter is already very, very difficult. It is conceivable that if Li Ang really coaches the giants, how incredible it is.

On the Internet, domestic fans are a little excited, and they have expressed their 'support' and 'serious support' for Li Ang to coach the giants and 'win glory for the country'!

***********

The flower also called to inquire about it, and the little girl was very excited.

"No comment. This is Leon's answer to the flowers.

This made the little girl a little unhappy, and said what kind of relationship we have, so let's not say such a formulaic answer.

Li Ang said, it is precisely because of our relationship that we have no comment.

The clever little head of the flower is a little bit clear.

This shows that Li Ang is a little tempted, otherwise Li Ang's answer should be that he likes Sporting Gijón and likes to stay here, and he won't think about anything else.

Of course, maybe it's just a little tempting, that's all.

"Tempted?" Huahua's eyes lit up, licked her delicate lips, and asked, thinking of the scene of Li Ang coaching a wealthy family and standing in the coach's seat of a wealthy family, the little girl was a little excited.

"I don't know. Leon shook his head, "I don't want to think about it now, let's talk about it later." ”

"If you want to, go up. Flowers exclaimed.

"Pay attention to quality. Leon was a little speechless.

"Alright, alright, aren't people happy for you? Flower pouted.

Li Ang stopped talking, this girl's coquettishness made him a little unsure of how to deal with it, but fortunately, the flower on the other end of the phone also blushed, knowing that what he said just now was a little ambiguous, so he found an excuse to hang up the phone.

***********

Leon rubbed his temples.

He's having a headache right now.

If in his heart, he wants to make a career in Sporting Gijón, lead a grassroots team, achieve a career, and overturn countless giants, this sense of achievement is bursting.

Leon's original plan was to stay at Sporting Gijón for a few years and lead the team to become a new and important force in Spanish football.

He hadn't thought about other teams before.

Of course, or rather, this is also because there are no teams, or more precisely there are no invitations from big teams.

However, the most important reason is the current situation of Sporting Gijón, which makes Leon a little tired.

He is not talking about the team's results, the team under his leadership, the current situation is very good, the state is very good, and the results are naturally not said.

This refers to the team's financial situation, which Sporting Gijón has not had a financial budget, otherwise last summer's transfer budget would not have been less than 3 million.

After most of the season, Sporting Gijón performed well in La Liga and European competitions, and Leon thought that the team's financial situation would improve, but just before the match against Atletico Madrid, he had a secret meeting with the club's president, Arango Sr., and he received information from the team's president, Manuel Arango, that the team's financial situation was still tight, and even Manuel Arango tentatively asked if he could sell several of the team's stars......

This is to sell blood to support the team's finances.

This immediately alerted Leon, and he rejected old Arango without hesitation, he knew that in this matter, he had to be resolute and not give old Arango any room for illusion!

Hearing Leon's resolute refusal, the old Arango seemed a little unhappy, but he and Leon had an agreement, Leon had the team's transfer power, and Manuel Arango also knew the team's current results, and a lot of credit was due to Leang, and he didn't have a good relationship with Leang.

***********

This conversation with old Arango alerted Leon.

After the match with Atletico Madrid, Scottary secretly told Leon the news that the defending champions of La Liga, Valencia, had set their sights on Sporting Gijón, and they had their eye on Ribery and Diego Milito, and they were interested in buying the two players.

Although I didn't ask what the offer for Valencia was, it was clear that it was an offer that appealed to the club's president, Arango Sr.

This made Leon a little helpless and a little angry.

He worked hard for Sporting Gijón, and the team was almost built by him, and the foundation of the house had just been laid, and the ground had just been laid, and the wall was about to be dug over there.

This made Leon feel insecure, and he had to imagine a situation: the empire he had worked so hard to build was dug up by the club with a hoe and a hoe!

This is also the reason why Li Ang is currently having some headaches and anger, and in this case, it is impossible for Li Ang not to be touched by the news that Atletico Madrid has taken a crush on him and intends to invite him to coach.

It's just that for Atletico Madrid, to be precise, for the Hill family, Leon is not very reassured.

For Atletico Madrid and the Hill family, Leon still knows better.

***********

Two days before the 1987 race for president of Atletico Madrid, the elder Hill appeared at the club alongside Porto star Paulo Futré and promised to sign the star from the Portuguese giants if he won the race. The old Hill's move worked wonders in the race for the presidency of the Red and White Army, where he eventually won by 6,219 votes to 3,465 against his main rival, Enrique León.

This became a very vivid and very important event in the history of Atletico Madrid, and the face of the club was greatly changed because of it. The elder Hill changed the trajectory of the club, both on the good and on the bad side. In the first five seasons of his presidency, the team finished in the top four of the league and won back-to-back Copa del Rey titles in 1991 and 1992, but a series of impromptu and eccentric behaviour by the then-president made the team look more like a circus.

In 1992, the elder Hill restructured Atletico into a public sports limited liability company, i.e. restructuring the club into a joint-stock system. The fans were like frogs boiled in warm water, they didn't realise the magnitude of the problem, and by the time they found out about the problems caused by the club's restructuring, it was already too late.

The elder Hill and his business partner, now Atletico Madrid president Enrique Cerezo, were found to have illegally acquired a total of 236056 shares of the club, but were allowed to continue to hold those shares when the statute of limitations expired at the time of the court proceedings, and Angel Hill, the elder Hill's son, still owns more than half of the club's shares, directly or indirectly.

Atletico fans at the time did not respond strongly enough to the club's "stealing" after the switch to a joint-stock system, and at the same age, Hill closed the club's academy for cost savings. As a result, the young Raul left for his rivals Real Madrid, and it goes without saying that everyone in Madrid knows about his great career.

Atletico also suffered the only relegation in the club's history since the Second World War during the old Hill era, and the reason for this was nothing more than the fact that he overspent in some unnecessary areas, and the lack of investment in some areas ultimately caused the team to feel the pain. Although the team quickly recovered its strength and returned to La Liga, they did not get rid of the mountain of debt together. Atletico still owe Spanish taxpayers a whopping €45 million due to turbulent times.

In La Liga, Atletico sank for two seasons. In the 01/02 season, Atletico Madrid returned to La Liga as the champions of La Liga. However, Atletico's record in La Liga's first return is not ideal, and they only finished seventh last season.

Although, Leon also admits that although there have been many failures when the elder Hill was in charge of Atletico Madrid, his madness and persistence in Atletico Madrid are not inferior to Moratti in the Inter era.

However, Leon has to be careful, the Hill family doesn't seem to have a good relationship with the head coach, and they like to point fingers at the head coach.

Moreover, Atletico Madrid's finances do not seem to be very good right now.

***********

Then, just two days later, Sporting Gijón defeated Osasuna 1-0 in the second leg of the quarterfinals of the Copa del Rey to reach the quarterfinals of the Copa del Rey.

In the media, it was also revealed that Atletico Madrid owner and general manager Angel Hill publicly courted the head coach of Atletico Gijón in an interview with Spanish National Television Channel 3.

"Coach Leon's achievements in Gijón are very incredible, and looking at their ranking in the league standings, Coach Leon's coaching ability is admirable and impressive. (Asking Leon to coach Atletico Madrid?) Why not?"
