Chapter 705: Red Devil's Soul
It was getting late, and the sun was falling obliquely on the park's clean jogging path, elongating two figures. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
In Munich in mid-April, the temperature varies considerably, with warmer days and plummeting as soon as the sun sets.
Gao Han prepared in advance, and the coat that he had been holding in his hand was gently draped on the shoulders of his pot-bellied wife Lin Xia beside him, and Lin Xia clumsily let Gao Han put on the coat for her.
The two of them interlocked their fingers, smiled at each other, and walked slowly in the direction of home.
It's April, Lin Xia's due date has arrived, and the parents of both sides have already chased to Munich, but the stomach has not moved, which makes Gao Han very relieved.
As a result, there was still no movement, and it seemed that he was also a tormenting little guy.
Not only the two of them, but also the two teams of elderly people in the family are also very nervous, after all, this is the third generation of their family.
Gao Damin and his wife both counted the days with their fingers crossed, saying that according to the tradition of the old family, those born earlier than the due date are often boys, and those born later than the due date are mostly girls, because boys are more active.
Gao Han was completely speechless, he couldn't understand where this logic came from.
But Lin Guoping and his wife are not much better, I don't know where to go to hear people say that those with round stomachs will give birth to girls, and sharp ones will give birth to boys, as a result, Lin Xia's belly looks a little round, but it is a little sharp.
Is it round or pointed, male or female?
Every time he thinks of this, Gao Han feels funny, sometimes there is really no way to take these old people.
Lin Xia heard Gao Han laughing, a little strange, asked, and after listening to it, he couldn't help laughing.
"Actually, although they all say that men and women don't matter, I can also feel that whether it is my parents or your parents, everyone wants to have a boy. Lin Xia chuckled.
Gao Han nodded, "After all, it is the older generation, so it is inevitable that there will be such thoughts, which is understandable." ”
This has nothing to do with whether there is a level of education or not, it is mainly the traditional thinking of the older generation.
Of course, although they thought so, they never expressed anything, let alone put pressure on Lin Xia, and only occasionally revealed their intentions in a few words.
"What about you?" Lin Xia asked with concern.
Gao Han smiled slightly, "I don't care, anyway, we plan to have a football team, does it matter if we have a boy or a girl?"
When Lin Xia heard this, his willow eyebrows rose upside down, and he almost didn't fly up and kicked him to death, "Are you a pig for me?"
Still have a football team?
Gao Han smiled, still holding her hand, and didn't dodge, "I'll tell you, your dad has already thought of a name." ”
"Really?" Lin Xia had a delicate expression that I didn't know.
He said that if it is a man, it is profound. ”
"Unfathomable profundity?"
"No, no, no, listen to him, it's a sentence in the Book of Songs. ”
"The Book of Songs?"
Gao Han hissed and thought for a while, "The high bank is the valley, and the deep valley is the mausoleum, he said that he likes this sentence very much, which probably means that there is no absolute in everything, be prepared for danger in times of peace, and not be arrogant or discouraged." ”
Lin Xia smiled bitterly, she didn't know much about the Book of Poetry.
"What if a girl is born?"
"Gao Jie, Jieyu's Jie, describes the meaning of a woman's beauty. ”
Lin Xia raised his eyebrows when he heard this, "This gap is too great, isn't it? The man's name comes from the Book of Poetry, and the woman's just make do with one word?"
Gao Han laughed, "Then you can go back and discuss it with your father later." ”
After saying that, both of them laughed.
In fact, they really don't pay much attention to choosing names, as long as they are simple and easy to remember, so as not to leave a shadow on their children.
On the contrary, it is the four elderly people in the family who study all day long.
Lin Xia had a big belly and didn't walk fast, and the two of them walked around talking and laughing, which was not interesting.
After talking about the child, Lin Xia quickly cared about Gao Han's recent game.
"I read in the newspaper that Ferguson's side have fought hard to win their last two games, and they all say it's a bit like the Red Devils during the treble-winning period. ”
Gao Han nodded, this is indeed a hot topic that has been reported by the outside media recently.
Manchester United did play very well in both games, and unlike Bayern Munich's complete victory, the Red Devils played very hard, and in both games, they were almost killed to the point of no return, and then they fought back.
Ferguson's side did play with a spirit rarely seen in years.
"Now many fans talk about the 98-99 season, Manchester United's treble, often the biggest impression is the magical reversal of Bayern Munich in the last minute of the Champions League final, remembering the goals of Sheringham and Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. ”
Gao Han turned his head and looked at Lin Xia, his eyes shining with remembrance and admiration.
"It's undoubtedly a legend and a miracle in the history of the Champions League, but it's the real horror of Manchester United on three fronts all the way to the final. ”
"I still remember clearly that after entering '99, every game of Manchester United was a bloody battle, from the third place in the Premier League at the beginning of January, and then all the way to the chase, into April, Manchester United led Arsenal by four points, but in April, the Red Devils were quickly caught up by the Gunners, and in the last two rounds, the two teams even had the same points and the same goal difference. ”
Lin Xia doesn't know much about football, but listening to Gao Han's words, he can also feel the suffocating tension of that season, and he can also feel the pressure that Manchester United is facing.
"Since April, Manchester United have been a bloody battle of bayonets in every game, almost falling down countless times, but getting up at crucial moments countless times, in the first leg of the Champions League against Juventus, Manchester United went into stoppage time at home to equalise, and finally Juventus took away an away goal. ”
"After playing Juventus, it was the FA Cup semi-final against Arsenal, which was also a tragic matchup, Schmeichel saved a penalty at a critical moment, and it was in that game that Manchester United dragged the game into extra time even with one less person than the opponent, and relied on Giggs's magical play at the last moment to overcome Arsenal in one fell swoop. ”
"After the FA Cup semi-finals, Manchester United challenged Juventus away, but they still conceded first, and they conceded two goals in just 11 minutes of the game, almost everyone thought Manchester United was going to be finished, but David Beckham's free-kick set up Keane to score and sounded the clarion call for Manchester United's counterattack. ”
The Red Devils scored three goals in a row to turn the score around and knock out Juventus to reach the final. ”
As for the finals, Gao Han didn't say it, Lin Xia definitely knew it.
The Reds were against Bayern Munich, one of the strongest teams in Europe at the time, and in the final three minutes, the Reds made an epic comeback, beating the Bundesliga giants and lifting the St. Bred's Cup.
It can be said that in that magical season, Ferguson's side played almost crazy form.
From the point of view of strength alone, Manchester United is definitely not strong, compared to European giants such as Juventus and Bayern Munich, Manchester United has no advantage, otherwise it will not be reversed.
But the crazy blood in Manchester United's bones, that crazy fighting spirit, makes the Red Devils the most terrible enemy.
This is a bit like the two games in the quarter-finals just past, all of which were reversed, so many media and fans in the outside world believe that Ferguson has regained the crazy spirit of Manchester United back then.
That's the soul of the Red Devil!
Lin Xia didn't know much about football, but after listening to Gao Han's explanation, she could also deeply feel Gao Han's admiration for Ferguson, and even a little awe.
"You know what? As a manager, I wish I could be like Alex Ferguson, coach a team like that, and leave a mark on the history of European football and even world football. ”
When Gao Han spoke, his tone revealed sincerity, and he admired Ferguson from the bottom of his heart.
"But you're not bad either. Lin Xia gently held Gao Han's hand, "Leading Atletico Madrid to win the championship, the big reversal in the Champions League final that went down in history, and Inter Milan, and you have never lost so far, not even a draw, isn't this even more magical than Ferguson?"
After listening to his wife's comforting words, Gao Han gently held Lin Xia's hand, shook his head with a smile, and said no more.
He knew in his heart that he was able to achieve so many results thanks to the help of the coaching system.
Others don't know, but he can't hide it from himself.
Over the years, he has been working hard to improve his coaching skills and keep learning all aspects of knowledge, because he knows that relying on the coaching system is not the way to go, and only by himself can he achieve a higher sense of achievement.
Standing in his current position and achievements, no amount of victories achieved by relying on the coaching system can fill the emptiness in his heart.
He hopes that one day he will be able to lead a team that is firmly engraved with the name of Gao Han like Alex Ferguson, relying on his true level, and leaving his own magnificent music in the history of world football for countless future generations to admire and worship.
But it is clear that this is not the time yet.
At the very least, the time is not yet ripe.
"I really had a hunch. ”
"What?"
"Our most feared opponent this season will probably be Manchester United. ”
"Manchester United?"
Lin Xia was slightly surprised, but after thinking about it again, he was relieved.
She can also be said to have a deep understanding of Ferguson's horror, and with Gao Han's words just now, she knows even more.
If it is really as the outside media and fans say, Ferguson has really stimulated Manchester United this season and played that crazy blood, then it is not impossible to reach the final, and even the Champions League is very hopeful.
"But ......" Lin Xia grabbed Gao Han's arm hard, and looked at him with affectionate eyes, "I have confidence in you." ”
Gao Han smiled and nodded, and the two walked forward side by side.
He just felt it suddenly, and he didn't have the slightest fear, on the contrary, he was even a little eager to try.
As a manager, he is keen to have the opportunity to play against a mad Manchester United to spark more and give him a deeper understanding of football.
You know, opponents like Alex Ferguson and the crazy Manchester United are hard to come by.
If they can get to the finals, it will be a good thing for Gao Han.
Just when this thought just rose in his mind, Lin Xia, who was walking beside him, suddenly let out a sigh and held his stomach with both hands.
"What's wrong?" Gao Han was startled and quickly asked.
Lin Xia shook his head, his face obviously changed, "I don't know, he seems to be kicking me......"
"What then?"
"No, no, I seem to ...... It seems that she is about to give birth......" Lin Xia was already sweating profusely.
After Gao Han heard this, he was also anxious, so he hurriedly didn't say a word, and hurriedly helped Lin Xia to rest on the side of the road, and took out his mobile phone to make a call.
He's finally going to be a dad!
