Chapter 915: Losing the Lady and Breaking the Army
When referee Stark blew the whistle for the end of the game, the huge Bernabeu Stadium fell silent.
All the Real Madrid fans don't know what kind of reaction to give in order to express their feelings at the moment, as they watch their beloved team be beaten by a single goal.
Is Mourinho's team not working hard enough and not working hard?
Wrong, the Real Madrid players can be said to have done their best to fight until the last minute, but they still failed to reverse the defeat.
This game made it clear to them that with Real Madrid's current squad, it is not at all capable of competing with top teams such as Barcelona and Manchester City, even if it is strictly defended.
The cold team won 79% possession at the Bernabeu Stadium, almost the whole game was played by Real Madrid, and the Galaxy Battleship only had six shots on goal in the whole game, one shot on target, and none of them could create a threat, how to break Manchester City's goal?
It can be said that the victory or defeat of this game made them see the difference in strength of Real Madrid clearly.
Not only the Real Madrid fans in the stands, but also Florentino in the presidency stand.
The Real Madrid president did not look good, because he knew very well that this defeat almost meant that Real Madrid would leave the Champions League and that it would be difficult for the Galaxy to turn the tide in the second leg.
Gao Han will once again lead his team to the Champions League final.
This will be his fourth Champions League final, having won the previous three and this one should be the same.
'Mourinho did his best. Zidane, who was sitting on the side, said lightly.
Florentino nodded, he understood, he did his best, his skills were not as good as others, and he had nothing to say.
It can even be said that it is enough to win a Copa del Rey on Barcelona this season.
Florentino will have to hope for next season if he wants to beat Barcelona, and the team will have to invest more this summer, but the problem now is that there are not many superstars on the transfer market for him to choose from.
'I think the weakest link right now is on the wings and in midfield. Zidane's tone was still flat, "There is a lack of attacking ability on the wings, Di Maria is one of the few players in the team who has the ability to break through on the wings, and the midfielders lack control, you know, it means that we will play very passively." ”
Control football, which is a wave set off by Gao Han in European football in the past decade, has basically become everyone's consensus and mainstream, and it is also the pursuit of most strong teams.
Florentino first nodded in agreement with Zidane's judgment, but then shook his head and let out a long sigh.
"I wanted to bring in Robben and Ribery, but as you can see, Bayern Munich refused to live or die, and now they are both twenty-eight years old, as for Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka, ......"
Florentino couldn't finish his sentence, and these two superstars were an eternal pain in his heart.
Just a little bit later, the two of them joined Real Madrid.
"In midfield, David Silva and Luka Modric were our original targets, especially Modric, but he followed Gao Han to Manchester City, and now the duo of the two is the best in the world, and we are afraid that no matter how much money we pay, we will not be able to convince Manchester City to let him go. ”
After Florentino entered the palace and entered Real Madrid, he learned from the pain, and also absorbed the shortcomings of the first phase of the Galaxy Battleship in terms of transfer, paid more attention to youth and localization in terms of recruitment, and invested heavily in the 28-year-old Robben and Ribery, which obviously violated Florentino's philosophy.
What's more, Bayern Munich will not necessarily agree.
"Actually, I think Eden Hazard in Chinatown is quite good and has a lot of potential. Zidane said.
"I know. Zinedine Zidane has recommended the player to Florentino more than once, but the Real Madrid president also has his own concerns, "You should understand that Hazard is a player handpicked by Gao Han, it is not easy to convince Gao Han to release him, and do you really think he is ready to play for us?"
Zidane could not guarantee it.
Judging from the performance of the Chinese City team this season, Michu is undoubtedly the most eye-catching, Aubameyang has also performed well, and Hazard has improved a lot and secured the main team, but the performance is relatively inferior to the two teammates.
Even in terms of limelight, he is not as good as midfielder James Rodriguez.
The Colombian striker has been in for the season in La Liga, with Schneiderlin or Rakitic alongside him, or Herrera, Isco and Koke.
This is a very well-rounded number 10 player.
"That's right. Florentino suddenly remembered something, "You recently took a coaching course in Chinatown, right?"
"Well, yes. Zidane nodded.
"Did Gao Han come to teach?"
Zidane shook his head, "I heard that after the end of the season, he will come to give a lecture, and many people have already booked their seats in advance. ”
At the end of the day, the French superstar can't help but wonder that the appeal of the cold is simply more than that of the popular superstar.
'Find a chance to help me find out, I heard that he could leave Manchester City this summer. "Florentino is on point.
But Zidane understands it.
From the beginning, Florentino had the best candidate for the best coach Gao Han, but Gao Han has always resisted coaching Real Madrid, and now it seems that Florentino is not giving up and still wants to continue to pursue Gao Han.
"Okay, I'll ask if I have a chance. Zidane nodded.
After a pause, the French superstar added: "What if...... I mean, if Gao Han does coach Real Madrid, I want to be his assistant coach. ”
Seeing Zidane's interested eyes, Florentino was a little surprised.
He didn't expect that even the French superstar was a fan of Gao Han.
…………
…………
While Florentino and Zinedine Zidane in the stands were discussing the high cold, the protagonist had already celebrated the victory with the players and assistants, and turned around and walked back to the dugout.
Mourinho, as the host, although he lost, still went over with his head.
"Congratulations, you won the game. Mourinho had two words written all over his face, disappointed.
"Thank you. Gao Han saw his expression, his heart was also very happy, and after shaking hands with him happily, he said with a smile: "Maybe this time the lawn is not high enough, next time remember to grow twenty or thirty centimeters longer, and if it doesn't work, spread fine sand into the lawn, you know, this trick is very effective." ”
Mourinho's face turned blue after hearing this, why couldn't he hear that Gao Han was deliberately mocking him?
Before the game, he hadn't lost yet, and after listening to Gao Han's words, he just took Gao Han's words as a deaf ear, thinking that this was Gao Han's tongue after being hit by himself, but now that he heard it, his feelings were completely different, and he only felt extremely harsh.
But in this regard, he also knew that he was at a loss, so he just snorted coldly, "You won't be so lucky next time." ”
"Ha, maybe, but you still have to think about how to deal with the media after the game, although you have always been good at dealing with them, but this time I am afraid it is not that simple. ”
Gao Han smiled gloatingly.
"Oh, by the way, and UEFA, we've officially submitted a written protest that you're completely violating our pre-match agreement in terms of the height of the turf, the number and timing of watering, so you'd better think about how to clear your name. ”
According to UEFA rules, the lawn should be watered before the game and at halftime, but Real Madrid obviously did not follow each other's agreement, and the grass was too high, and after the referee Stark proposed it, Real Madrid still did not rectify it.
Those two alone are enough to get Mourinho in trouble.
What's more, after working hard and doing everything, this game was lost.
Thinking of this, Gao Han was particularly relieved, and a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind.
"It occurred to me that in China, there is an old saying that best describes the current situation. ”
Regardless of whether Mourinho wanted to listen to it or not, Gao Han smiled and said, "I lost my wife and broke my army." ”
What exactly does this mean, Mourinho doesn't quite understand, but from Gao Han laughing like that, needless to say, it is definitely not a good word, it must be falling into the well and satirizing himself.
For this, Mourinho also had no way to fight back, so he could only snort coldly, turn around and leave.
But before leaving, the Portuguese did not forget to leave behind the cruel words, "See you in Manchester in a week!"
As for this kind of cruel words before leaving, Gao Han has always ignored it directly, and happily replied, "Okay, in a week, I will definitely mow the turf and water it at the city stadium, and wait for you to come!"
When he heard this, the corners of Mourinho's mouth twitched obviously, and he almost didn't go out.
What a slap in the face!
But the players of Manchester City behind him cheered loudly, and they all surrounded Gao Han.
"Well said, Boss!"
"You're amazing, Boss!"
"This response is absolutely incredible!"
"Just to show them that any intrigue is not as reliable as hard power on the pitch. ”
"That's right, instead of having the time to play with those tricks, you should put more effort into the game. ”
The scene of Manchester City's players heathing on the sidelines was quickly captured by the media reporters stationed on the sidelines.
Regarding everything that happened on and off the pitch, including Real Madrid's actions before the game, the media reporters have already received the news, and the reason why they have not had an attack is to wait for the result of the game.
If Mourinho wins, of course, it will be a clever plan, and they will do everything possible to describe Mourinho's pre-match actions as superb, because this kind of off-field gossip is what fans and readers love most.
But if Mourinho loses, then they will fall into the ground, and with Manchester City's protest letter, they will attack Real Madrid and Mourinho in a group, and blow up the inside story, which can still attract the attention of readers and fans.
And now, Real Madrid have lost, and it's almost time for them to get moving.
As a result, all the media reporters rushed to the sidelines and began to ask the Manchester City players who won the game, hoping to get more fierce information from their mouths about the evaluation of this game, and even encouraged them to criticize Mourinho and Real Madrid.
Gao Han also fulfilled his pre-match promise to allow all players to be interviewed by media reporters, but he also reminded players to stop in moderation and not cross the bottom line, especially not to step into the trap of media reporters.
Manchester City's players have received special training from the team's public relations, and they naturally know how to speak in a measured manner, but this does not prevent them from venting the anger in their hearts for two or three days.
