Chapter 373: The Whole of Spain Praises Him! (2nd Update, Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Lazio returned to Italy with scars all over their bodies, losing 5-1 at the feet of Sporting Gijón in a defeat that shocked the entire Italian football scene. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The loss of a Serie A team to a team in La Liga is not the end of the world, but the loss to La Liga promotion is indeed a little unacceptable.
Although Sporting Gijón is currently ranked third in La Liga, this ranking is enough to show that this promoted horse is special, but no matter how special he is, he is also a promoted horse, so there is an uproar on the Italian side.
The media in Rome were criticizing Lazio, and the media in Italy were almost all ridiculing Lazio.
Serie A has always had a north-south rivalry, and there is a long-term struggle between the top three in the north represented by Juventus, AC Milan and Inter Milan and the two giants of Rome.
AC Milan, Inter Milan and Juventus are backed by the billionaires Silvio Berlusconi, Moratti and Agnelli respectively, and the Sensi family of Roma and Lazio's previous boss Cragnotti cannot compete with them. Juventus has become a strategic partner with AC Milan in recent years, and Inter Milan has a very close relationship with them. In contracts with pay TV stations, these 3 clubs are the biggest profiteers.
In the past few years, Lazio and Roma have made a lot of money, but it is difficult to sustain in the face of huge deficits, in the major Italian clubs, only Juventus is profitable, the rest are loss-making, Milan's deficit is not less than Lazio, but Berlusconi and Moratti can come up with money to continue to buy, Lazio can only sell Nesta and Crespo, and Roma can't afford to buy Capello's favorite Davies.
Not only is there money, but the top three in the north are also powerful. They have been dominating the power of football. Juventus have been the boss of football in the past, and it is said that before Silvio Berlusconi became president of AC Milan, all major transfers in Serie A had to be approved by Juventus boss Agnelli. Silvio Berlusconi is now mainly involved in politics, but AC Milan general manager Galliani can become the president of the professional league, which is enough to see the influence of the Italian prime minister in football.
However, despite being in the south, Lazio was once a two-to-five boy, and in the past Civil War, Lazio President Cragnotti had an ambiguous attitude, and when Sensi and Galliani ran for the presidency of the professional league, he also supported the "northerners".
***********
After the former Lazio president Cragnotti was imprisoned, the current president of Lazio is Lotito, although he should now be said to be a chairman who is hostile to the top three in the north, but the Romans will not forget the betrayal of Lazio, a sworn enemy, on the major issues of right and wrong, so Roma fans hate Lazio even more, and Lotito has now joined the anti-northern lineup, and the Italian northern media will naturally not save face for Lazio.
In a word, now Lazio has a bit of a meaning of 'Zhu Bajie looks in the mirror, not a person inside and out'.
In such an environment, Lazio suffered a heavy defeat at the foot of La Liga promotion horses, and almost the vast majority of the media in Italy were particularly excited and began to fall into the ground.
They say Lazio has lost face in Serie A and disgraced the 'mini-World Cup'.
"Lazio coach Cassel must have had a problem with his brain, he expressed his desire to win the game, but, judging from the course of the game, it was clear that he was not ready to win, he thought that winning was just a shout from his mouth?" - Roma Sport
"Lazio was stabbed five times in this stadium called El Molinen, Lazio suffered a heavy defeat, Serie A was bleeding, this small stadium that we have never heard of, but after such a game, it stimulates our eyes! And the head coach of Sporting Gijón, a Chinese team slaughtered Lazio five to one, God testifies, this is a prank!" - Torino Sports Newspaper The words are extremely sarcastic about Lazio, and at the same time there is a lack of respect for Leon, without him, they do not believe how good a Chinese is in coaching, although Leon has proved this with a big victory, but Juventus, the hegemon of Serie A, because they have not experienced the pain, still remain skeptical.
***********
Leon naturally didn't know that Lazio's fiasco in Italy caused a criticism of the Blue Eagle Army, even if he knew, he wouldn't pay attention to it, in his opinion, Lazio was self-inflicted, Lazio coach Cassel did the sins, and now he deserves to be criticized.
On the Spanish side, Sporting Gijón faced the Serie A giants Lazio in the group stage of the League Cup, and actually defeated the opponent 5-1 at home, which shocked the Spanish football world.
Even the Spanish media, which had previously criticized Sporting Gijón and Sporting Gijón, are also praising Sporting Gijón and Sporting Leon at this moment, in the European competition, Sporting Gijón represents Spanish football, and Sporting Gijón defeated the former Serie A champion so heartily, which made the Spanish media feel that they have face.
"I don't feel sympathy for Lazio because they brought it on themselves! their pre-match arrogance made Leon and Sporting Gijón angry, and from that moment they were destined to be punished. - The ABC newspaper, after enumerating the tragic results of those opponents who had provoked Leon and Sporting Gijón, said that the implication was that Leon could not be provoked!
A few days ago, Sporting Gijón defeated Real Madrid, and the media in Madrid were full of mourning, they were criticizing Real Madrid, and there was also a lot of criticism of Leon for his provocative and disrespectful behavior towards Real Madrid before and after the game, but now, as if overnight, Leon has also changed from a 'personless guy' to a 'personable La Liga coach'.
The match was given to the match by the newspaper Ace on this day, with a photo of a group of players in Lazio jerseys, with their heads bowed or crossed over their waists, with frustration and loss on their faces, and behind them were cheering and celebrating Sporting Gijón players, and at the far end, on the electronic scoreboard at the Estadio Elmolinon: Sporting Gijón 5:1 Lazio!
The headline of the newspaper "Marca" was: "Serie A champions, stunned losers!", directly pointing the spearhead of ridicule at the 'small World Cup' that Italians are proud of.
***********
Because of the repeated embarrassment of Real Madrid, Leon was regarded as an 'old friend' by the Catalan media, and this outstanding performance in the European competition made the Catalan media find a reason to praise Leon.
"It's time for the Italians to wake up!" – Le Monde Sport bluntly told the Italians that they should wake up from their dream of a 'little World Cup'.
"We don't deny the glory of Serie A, but that's a thing of the past...... Lazio, who were Serie A champions three years ago, were the strongest team in the UEFA Cup, but they were unable to resist a team that had returned to La Liga after 20 years. This is the Italian Seven Sisters, and it's a big laugh!"
Every word, every word of the entire article in Le Monde Sport was filled with vicious ridicule and humiliation.
They have a grudge against the Italian media, when Cruyff's Barcelona dream team was slaughtered by AC Milan 4-0 in the Champions Cup final, the Italian media ridiculed Barcelona to the fullest, this account, the Catalans have always remembered, Sporting Gijón slaughtered the former Serie A champion Lazio, "Le Monde Sport" of course seized the opportunity to fall into the ground.
Sporting Gijón is a promoted polo team, under the leadership of Leon, although it is now ranked third in La Liga, and although they have won La Coruna and Real Madrid in the league, the Spanish media is still cautious about this team, and some voices are not too optimistic about the future of this team. There is also a lot of criticism of Leon's rebellious character.
However, after the 5-1 win over Lazio, almost overnight, Sporting Gijón became the object of constant praise in Spanish football.
And Li Ang was also praised.
On the morning of that day, Leon sat at the bright dining table in the window, enjoying his breakfast, while reading the newspapers, such as Marca, As, Le Monde Sport, and ABC, all of Spain's most influential media.
Look left, look again, it's all praise, this feeling, it's cool!
This young Chinese has never felt so good as today!
The smile on his face is the same as the flowers of joy.
This is the whole of Spain praising him, which is unprecedented for Leon, this feeling, as if all the pores are trembling comfortably.
This is cool.
