Chapter 210: Hustle!

It's the real showdown. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

In the final round of the league, Sporting Gijón won against Cadiz, and they could overtake each other and qualify for the promotion play-offs.

Leon felt that the situation was good and very satisfied.

He didn't have to think about anything else, he didn't have to think about Huelva's game. As long as you win Cadiz and win this game, you're all set!

He has been studying Cadiz for more than half a month since he saw the hope of promotion, and Leon has seen Cadiz as the biggest opponent in the promotion play-offs.

Two weeks ago, Cadiz's sixth place ranking was still unusually stable, at that time, although Sporting Gijón had a theoretical threat to them, but in fact, the threat was not great, but in this half a month, Cadiz lost points one after another, and now they are facing the pressure of the decisive battle with Sporting Gijón, I believe their morale must have been affected now.

Sporting Gijón is morale high, the players are the most direct participants in all these changes, they clearly see the step by step to the current process, from the theoretical small hope of promotion, to now there is real hope, as long as you win this game, you can qualify for the promotion play-offs!

This change in the psychological journey, this process of gradually opening the door of hope step by step, is a great stimulation and morale boost for the whole team of Sporting Gijón.

In addition, the last round of Sporting Gijón was played at home, which is also good news.

The media is also focusing on the battle for promotion play-off qualification between Sporting Gijón and Cadiz.

The media were amazed by Sporting Gijón's performance from the relegation zone all the way to the promotion zone.

The media in Gijón were cheering on Sporting Gijón as they began to imagine the team beating Cadiz at home to secure the last promotion play-off spot.

And some other media in Spain, there are also more optimistic about Sporting Gijón, after all, since the 27th round of the league, Sporting Gijón has not lost in the league, if you count the process of winning the Copa del Rey, to be exact, they have not lost in the double-line battle since the 27th round of the league.

Take a look at Sporting Gijón's record, having eliminated Zaragoza in the Copa del Rey, beaten Real Madrid in the final, and beaten teams in the top three in the league, including Levante.

Sporting Gijón is in good shape now, and there is no ambiguity in playing a tough game, in this game, Sporting Gijón won Cadiz to qualify for the play-offs, this kind of direct matchup, Sporting Gijón seems to be strong enough, which is why these media are optimistic about Sporting Gijón.

Of course, there are some media outlets who are bullish on Cadiz for the simple reason that although Cadiz have not been in good form recently, Cadiz only needs a draw to secure a stay in the top six of the league and qualify for the promotion play-offs. With the strength of Cadiz, just to fight for a draw, there is a lot of room for maneuver and a lot of hope.

***********

Founded in 1910, Cadiz FC is not a veteran in La Liga, but they have spent very little time in the top flight, with only 11 years in the club's history, and their last appearance in the first division was in the 92-93 season, when the team's best place in the first division was only 12th in the 87-88 season.

Cadiz FC is full of homegrown newcomers, cheap South American signings and out-of-fashion veterans – typical of a La Liga veteran fritter team.

With three days to go before the final league game against Sporting Gijón, Cadiz coach Steglenburg has expressed his determination to retain his place in the promotion play-offs in an interview with the media.

"It's been 11 years since we last played in La Liga and the whole city is desperate to breathe La Liga again. Sporting Gijón was a surprise performer, but it was clear that we were the more qualified team to go to La Liga. ”

Leon was quick to respond to Mr. Steglenburg's words, "If I were the manager of Cadiz, but I was chased by the opponent in a good situation and had to go to the final round of the league, I would have resigned a long time ago." The words were full of contempt and sarcasm for the Steglenburg manager.

This can be counted as naked-naked, sarcasm and attack.

According to the media, Cadiz head coach Steglenburg was so furious that it was said that 'the roar of the Andalusian coach could be heard even from miles away' on the training ground in Cadiz.

With a day to go, Leon spoke again.

"Obviously, Cadiz only needs a draw to be satisfied, and I can already imagine that our opponents will put a bus in front of their goal against a team with eleven defenders, which is difficult, but we are ready for the toughness of the game......

'Cadiz may be utilitarian and play ugly conservative football, but they have that right, I don't want to say anything more, we'll have a solution. ”

The day before the match, Leon began to frantically attack their opponent Cadiz, attacking the opponent's tactical conservatism and the opponent's tactical ugliness......

This also caused an uproar in the media and the anger of the Cadiz.

Generally speaking, it is only after the game that the head coach criticizes and criticizes the tactics of their opponent team, and now, the game has not been played, and Li Ang is so noisy and attacking, it is really a bit too much.

And some media pointed out that Li Ang is agitating the method, which is stimulating Cadiz coach Steglenburg, because Li Ang and Sporting Gijón are very worried that Cadiz will play conservatively in this game, because Cadiz only needs a draw to be enough, once Cadiz is strictly defended, it is going for a draw, and it is really difficult for Sporting Gijón to break the dense defense.

And the media of Cadiz suggested to their own team, just do what the Chinese coach of Sporting Gijón said, let's 'put the bus' and let the Gijón people cry.

Sporting Gijón coach Scott didn't understand Leon's approach, why did he say these things before the game, in case the opponent was not agitated and really 'put on the bus', then Sporting Gijón would be in trouble.

Leon's response to this was that idleness and boredom added to the cadis people......

A day later, on June 19, 2004, the final round of the 2003/2004 Spanish Serie B season, the match day finally arrived. (To be continued.) )
