Signed Ribery and enjoyed a delicious lamb pie and carrot soup. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Leon praised Ribery's wife, Vasiba, for her cooking, much to Ribery's delight. This young man with a terrible scar on his face was proud to have such a wife.

Leon and Banderas said goodbye and left, Ribery had already signed his personal contract, and when the contract with Brest expired on June 10, Ribery would be a member of Sporting Gijón, and then Leon would contact Ribery again, and Ribery would only need to report to Gijón at the agreed time.

As he was leaving, Leon took out his wallet, took out two twenty-euro bills and one five-euro note, and handed them to Ribery.

Ribery was stunned for a moment, then quickly waved his hand, explaining that he was just joking.

Leon laughed, "Take it." ”

Seeing that Ribery was a little at a loss, Leon said, "This is a forty-five euro signing! But, in my eyes, Frank Ribery will be a great star in the future!"

Ribery was stunned when he heard this, and then the French young man from a poor town took the forty-five euros with an excited expression, "Sir, it will be as you wish!"

Leon smiled, patted Ribery on the shoulder, then said hello to Vasiba and left the old poor abode in Brest.

After Leon left, Ribery found an old photo album and placed the three notes in the back of the adhesive film.

Seeing her husband doing all this, Vasiba was surprised, because the family was poor, she knew that Ribery was 'slamming the door', and when she had money, she must have put it in her wallet first, but now, it's only forty-five euros, and she actually collects it...... Could it be that these three banknotes have any special significance?

Franck Ribery put his arm around his wife's shoulders and told the story of his meeting with the Chinese coach from the Spanish club......

At this time, it was already more than seven o'clock in the evening, the night was already dark, and outside the window, the stars were dotted, embellishing people's dreams.

The next day, Leon returned to Spain with Banderas.

On the flight back, the two men were still talking about Ribery.

Leon is quite optimistic about Ribery, which makes Banderas quite surprised, he has not seen Ribery play, although there is no investigation and no right to speak, but he still feels that a player who is already twenty-one years old and still playing in the French third league really has no future at all.

"You'll see. Leon laughed, he was in a good mood, "Ribery will surprise you." ”

Banderas glanced at Leon, smiled, and said nothing more, apparently not convinced.

Li Angbian flattened his mouth, and said that you would be surprised when the time came.

***********

Take a flight from Paris to Madrid and from Madrid to Gijón.

In the afternoon, Leon appeared on the training ground at the Mareo training base.

He officially introduced Pablo Banderas to the rest of the coaching staff and the players.

Pablo Banderas has become the new assistant coach and will join Scotry to complement Leon.

For this assistant configuration, Leon is quite satisfied, Scott is the veteran of the team, although the ability is mediocre, but the work is meticulous, and Leon can handle the work well, and Banderas and Leon have worked together happily before, and they have a more thorough understanding of Leon's football philosophy, and their ability is stronger than Scottrie.

Five days later.

Algeciras, Cadiz, Andalosia, Spain.

This port city in southern Spain is located on the western side of the Gulf of Algeciras on the Mediterranean Sea, just 9.6 kilometers west of the Strait of Gibraltar. It's a small city that is not big.

When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the match, on the turf of Algeciras's home stadium, it was the Sporting Gijón players who celebrated.

In the 37th round of the Spanish second division, Sporting Gijón defeated Algeciras 2-0 away, but the team that had been relegated early caused a lot of trouble for Sporting Gijón, and it was not until the 71st minute of the game that Sporting Gijón broke the deadlock for them with a header from Maguel Picla, and ten minutes later, substitute Matt Bilic scored in front of the goal to extend the score to 2-0, and also insured Sporting Gijon's victory.

When the whistle blew at the end of the game, Li Ang finally breathed a sigh of relief, before the game he didn't expect that this team that had been relegated ahead of schedule would cause them so much trouble, Li Ang was thinking, he was reviewing, some underestimated, as a head coach, he underestimated the enemy, and this kind of thinking is not only in this manager, the players are also a little underestimated to this team that was relegated in advance.

In such a situation, the Algeciras players, in the cheers of the fans, played very well, causing a lot of trouble for Sporting Gijón.

It was because of the unexpected difficulties that the players were excited and relieved after winning the game.

***********

In his post-match press conference, Leon praised his opponents for the match, "I know that Algeciras were unfortunately relegated early, but in this game, they deserve respect, they played great. If I had to rate our opponents today, they would all be perfect marks!"

Leon's words won the hearts of the people of Algeciras, and after the game, the local newspaper also featured the Chinese head coach of Sporting Gijón for his excellent coaching experience in Gijón, and praised Li Ang.

This also makes some media who don't like Li Ang can't help but spit sour water, they think that Li Ang is too despicable, although it seems that Li Ang is respecting the opponent and praising the opponent, but, don't forget, it is Sporting Gijón who wins, since the loser is praised, isn't the winner even more powerful?! You guys, too naïve, were deceived by the rhetoric of that Chinese!

Leon was really wronged this time, he really didn't have so many twists and turns, he really felt that Algeciras played well. On the contrary, for his own players, Li Ang is not satisfied.

During his first training session back to Gijón from Algeciras, Leon first criticized the players harshly.

"Do you think that the opponent is a team that has been relegated early, so you think it's easy to bully?"

"Are you all complacent, do you think we can easily win?"

"We don't have any right to take our opponents lightly right now. ”

was reprimanded by Li Ang, the training ground was quiet, and no one dared to speak.

Leon's authority in Gijón is now on the rise, especially after leading the team to win the Copa del Rey at the Bernabeu.

Seeing Li Ang angry, the players were a little trembling.

***********

After a burst of fire, the complexion on Leon's face looked a little better.

"I don't think I need to tell you about the meaning of the next game, you all know it. Leon said.

"Know!" the players who were trained without looking at the silence only then breathed a sigh of relief and shouted loudly. There was excitement in his tone.

It's no wonder they're excited, because the next league game does have a special meaning.

Sporting Gijón won 2-0 against Algeciras in the 37th round of the league to pick up the three points.

At the end of the round, they had 58 points.

Sporting Gijón have also moved up two places in the league rankings and are now 10th in La Liga.

Eibar and Salamanca became the new teams to be overtaken by Sporting Gijón in the standings.

Leganes, who has been ranked 19th in the league, was once the most direct and dangerous relegation opponent of Sporting Gijón when it was 18th in the league, and played 1-1 with Cordoba in this round of the league, and now has 44 points.

At the end of this round, Leganes has 44 points, Sporting Gijón has 58 points, and Leon's team is 14 points ahead of Leganes, and there are still five rounds left in the second division of this season, and Sporting Gijón has an advantage in the win-loss relationship with Leganes, and the goal difference is now much more than Leganes, which means that Sporting Gijón only needs to remain unbeaten in the next 38th round of the league to get one point, and it will be able to succeed in four rounds of relegation in advance.

The danger of relegation is the sword of Damocles hanging over Sporting Gijón when Leon took over this team!

Only when the real relegation is successful, and even the theoretical relegation may be wiped out, can we really breathe a sigh of relief.

"The media have been calculating the ......number of points we need to stay in relegation," Leon said, "I get annoyed when I look at the analysis and I don't want to see the analysis that annoys me anymore after the next round of the league." ”

"In the match against Malaga B, the media said that if we draw, we would have been able to avoid relegation. Leon paused, looked at his players, and raised his voice sharply, "What do you think we need for this game?"

"Victory!" shouted the players in unison.

"Didn't you eat? I can't hear you!" yelled Leon.

"Victory, victory, victory!" shouted everyone, flushed and roared.

"Good!" Leon nodded, "I'll put this victory in my pocket in advance! I'm sure you won't let me down." ”

No one spoke, but the look in their eyes, the expressions on their faces, said it all.

***********

23 May 2004.

Gijón, Estadio El Molinon.

The entire stadium was packed.

All Gijón fans know what this game means for the team, and by winning this game, they will be able to avoid relegation four rounds ahead of schedule.

From the bottom five three months ago, almost judged by the media to be relegated, to now have the opportunity to succeed in relegation four rounds ahead of schedule, all Sporting Gijón fans are emotional and excited, they know best what has happened to the team in these three months!

What's more, just over half a month ago, they also defeated the powerful 'Galaxy Battleship' 4-3 at the Bernabeu Stadium, snatched the Copa del Rey trophy from Real Madrid, and they won the first truly golden championship trophy in the history of Sporting Gijón Club.

These three months have been a dream for Sporting Gijón fans.

Malaga B is currently 16th in the league with 52 points.

The team was one of the first to be overtaken by Sporting Gijón in the standings.

Not only were they overtaken by Sporting Gijón in the standings, but the most serious thing for Málaga B was that they were now in danger of relegation.

Including the ongoing match against Sporting Gijón, with five rounds of fixtures remaining, they are eight points ahead of 19th-placed Leganés and are still in danger of relegation.

Therefore, this game, for the Malaga B team, is also a relegation battle, despite the away game, the Malaga B team still showed a strong will to fight.

For the entire forty-five minutes of the first half, neither side scored, and the score was 0-0.

Sixty minutes into the game, the score was still 0-0.

Leon stood on the sidelines, his face calm.

However, he is tormented in his heart, although a draw can also be relegated in advance, but he still wants to see the team celebrate the success of relegation with a victory.

What's more, it is a draw now, and the Malaga B team is under greater pressure to relegate, this team has not given up the expectation of winning, in case of a sneak attack by the Malaga B team and loses this game, then Leon will faint with anger.

***********

The fans of Sporting Gijón in the stands have been singing and cheering on the players.

The camera captures the faces of the fans, and you can see that the expressions of these fans who are singing are also impatient, they are waiting for the goal!

Heroes waiting for goals!

In the seventy-second minute of the game, the hero appeared.

After Miguel Kobas's free-kick into the box and Maguel Picla's header was saved by the Málaga B goalkeeper, Juan Mata cleverly used his knee to cushion the ball and shoot it into the net.

At the moment when the net trembled, the entire Ermolinnon Stadium boiled!

The whole stadium, everyone was roaring, roaring, jumping, stomping, and it was like an earthquake.

And three minutes later, substitute Javier Blanco's long-range shot scored again for Sporting Gijón to extend the score to 2-0!

The whole stadium is even more crazy!

From this time on, no one in the entire stands was sitting and watching the game, and everyone stood up, singing, applauding, and cheering!

Waiting for the moment of celebration!

In the last minute of stoppage time, Malaga B were still looking to find a goal, and an extra goal difference would have been very helpful for their relegation.

Twenty thousand fans in the stands stood.

Leon stood on the sidelines.

He was surrounded by equally excited players and members of the coaching staff.

Eventually, the ball was shoveled out of the touchline by Marcos as a player from the Málaga B team made a mistake in passing, creating a dead ball.

The referee also blew the whistle at the end of the game in due time.

When it was, this active volcano called Ermolinnon erupted.

The earth shakes and the mountains shake!

The camera immediately focused on the sidelines, and Sporting Gijón coach Leon rushed into the pitch with his arms raised to hug his players...... He was then 'caught' by his own players, who threw their manager into the air......

The camera is shaking!

The stadium was completely in a state of madness...... (To be continued.) )
