Against Osasuna, Atletico Madrid, Barcelona, Deportivo La Coruna, Mallorca, Murcia and Real Sociedad, Real Madrid lost six of their last seven league games and won a Madrid derby alone. And the originally definite league championship also because of these six painful defeats, Real Madrid gave up the first place in La Liga, and fell to the second position, but there was only a two-point gap with the third Barcelona.

At the scene of the Champions League final, the match between Real Madrid and Porto, the referee finally blew the whistle for the termination of the game. On the sidelines were Queiroz, who seemed to have a little rickety on his back, and Mourinho, who had a mysterious smile all the time.

"0304 European Champions Cup, Porto with the title of dark horse, the Portuguese team led by this young coach, has the last laugh! Congratulations to Porto, you are the European champion!"

The Real Madrid crowd who stood proudly on the Schalke stadium was a little dazed, and in this way, the originally promising form of the treble ended in a result of four big empty in more than two months. In fact, Real Madrid, who have been losing games recently, have been criticized countless times for the spirit and style of the whole team. Of course, everyone knows that the Portuguese coach who belongs to Real Madrid on the sidelines will probably be able to receive a notice of dismissal when he returns.

Francisco Álvarez, who was on such a huge stage for the first time, was not as lucky as his friend to win the championship this time, he just watched the trophy close at hand, and could not do anything to let him slip away in front of him.

The 10th Champions Cup passed by, and the 10th Champions Cup is actually so far away.

David Beckham tucked his wet hair back, once again experiencing the ruthlessness of football. The regret and sadness of the defeat were undisguised, in stark contrast to the jubilant Porto players and the manager who was on the sidelines.

Suddenly, Beckham felt a tap on his shoulder, and when he looked back, he saw Fran standing behind him. The Englishman naturally raised his hand and rubbed his hair, Fran dodged and shouted a headache, and Beckham realized that his face was indeed not very good-looking.

Fran probably also understood that it was the cause of the lack of blood supply to the brain after strenuous exercise, and it was much better than the first game after returning to the team, and there was no major problem. Shouting about a headache was purely to intimidate Beckham not to rub his head, but I didn't expect it to really scare him.

The two of them walked back together, but their brains were blank because they were eliminated, and they had nothing to say at all. The stadium camera has been trying to capture some footage that should not be overlooked, but the experienced crowd may have let them down until Forlan and Beckham walked to the tunnel and were stopped by Jose Mourinho.

It is not accurate to say that it is intercepted, Mourinho simply called Forlan's name, and the two of them stopped together. Forlan looked at Mourinho with some consternation, and his impression of the Portuguese was not only that he was the rare young manager in Europe for Porto, but also that he took the initiative to praise himself at the press conference during the Champions League group stage. Wearing a straight suit on him looks imposing, and coupled with his status as a winner, this greeting gives people a sense of aggressiveness. There was still a hint of confusion in Forlan's eyes when he looked up at him, and Mourinho took out his hands in his pockets and crossed them over his chest, as if he felt that this movement was not friendly enough, and turned a hand on his shoulder very naturally. Even the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes were attractive when Mr. Coach smiled, and the dimples on his cheeks made this middle-aged man look extraordinarily young.

Fran felt that whenever he saw this coach, he himself had been in a flattered state. Beckham raised his eyebrows as a bystander to watch this scene, although he didn't put on a star show when he got along with Forlan, but he was still a little surprised that Mourinho actually left himself aside except for saying hello at the beginning. What's more, Fran may not know much, but he has heard a lot about this Portuguese, and he seems to be a person who is not easy to get along with and is conceited because of his ability.

But at this time, Mourinho's attitude can be said to be approachable, not talking about this game, but condolences to his body, "Have you fully recovered now?" Forlan, who was still lost, barely cheered up, and nodded hurriedly when he heard Mourinho ask, for fear that a hesitation in answering would put his own back with the name of forcibly letting the injured man play. The elf-like Mourinho seemed to understand Forlan's mind at a glance, he withdrew his hand, but his expression did not change, "I watched the game between Real Madrid and Monaco, although the ball defense is beautiful, but it is really thrilling." It seems that he has stayed too long, and Mourinho knows that he should withdraw, "You have been suspended for a long time, I am worried about you, but it's okay." ”

Saying, 'But it's okay', as if nothing had happened, Mourinho turned and walked away, leaving Forlan and Beckham, who was looking him up and down meaningfully. Fran twitched the corners of her mouth, "Would you believe me if I said this was the second time we met, the first time we had met in private?"

Whether Beckham believes it or not, the media that captured this scene probably didn't believe it. However, this has nothing to do with Forlan for the time being, and after the Champions League final, the season is basically over. For Francisco Alvarez, although his debut season ended in a 'big four', in fact, everything except for the 'honor' was quite smooth. What's more, at the end of the season, the next thing that needs to be fought is the 04 Euro Cup.

Euro 04 will be held in Portugal, where 16 national teams from all over Europe will compete for a European title. France's Zinedine Zidane, Czech Republic's Nedved, England's David Beckham, Portugal's Figo, Netherlands' Ruud van Nistelrooy, Spain's Raul, Germany's Ballack, Italy's are just as big as every cup competition. Again, the question that raises the question is, which superstar and his national team will emerge victorious?

For Forlan, the only teams he can talk about are "Spain" and "Sweden". The former were drawn in Group A with hosts Portugal, Greece and Russia, while Forlan himself played for Sweden was placed in Group C with Denmark, Bulgaria and Italy.

Sweden's captain is Mjallby, who wore the number 4 shirt and was brought to Portugal by Lagerbeck, but it was difficult to be given a place on the bench due to his physical condition. The position of captain on the field was handed over to Larsson, who returned to the national team, and under the double persuasion of Prime Minister Persson and Chairman Johansson, as well as the encouragement of his family, Larsson still returned to the position of the national team, and has been in the starting position when watching the qualifiers and friendly matches to hone the lineup.

[Ibrahimovic and Ljungberg, if you add Larsson, who retired from the national team before, this Swedish team can play against any team. 】

This time, the offensive line that the media had predicted was finally complete. They even hailed the trio as the successors to Sweden's attack on the Iron Triangle of Gunnar Nodal, Gunnar Green and Nils Lidholm.

But "the Swedish team can play against any team" happened when the head coach's tactics were like this, and for Lagerbeck, the Swedish head coach never expressed this kind of thought, either his acting skills were too high and his mind was hidden, or he didn't plan to do it at all. On the defensive line, although Lagerbeck directly committed the core of the defense when he fooled Forlan to join the team, the unqualified and unconvincing Forlan was not given the promised 'heavy responsibility' although he was a central defender. However, in order to express his expectations, Lagerbeck said, "I can hand you the number 5 shirt. ”

Sweden is known for most of its historical midfielders, and the special significance of the number 5 Forlan was not available on the spot, but he was flattered to prevent embarrassment. When he returned to the room, Eevee was doing push-ups on the ground with nothing to do, and Fran always had an urge to sit directly on his back, but after all, he remembered that the two of them had not yet become acquainted with each other, and they finally got along a little better, which would not be good if he was annoyed.

Fran sat on the bed and asked, "Zlatan, what is the meaning of the number 5 jersey?" Ibrahimovic replied so freely that he didn't even have his brain, "What's the point?

He made a point, and Fran found himself speechless. He looked down at his roommate, who was still sweating because of his energy, and he couldn't tell for a moment whether the number 5 really didn't mean anything special to Sweden, or whether according to Ibrahimovic's character, all the most important meaning was that "this belongs to the best player in the world" deserved.

Compared with the loud slogan of 'bound to win the championship' of the major football powers, Lagerbeck's expectation of the tournament is 'go as far as possible'. Eevee has a lot of grievances about this, thinking that a man should set a goal high to have the motivation to struggle, and the main observer is Fran, and fortunately, although Fran also talks a lot, he is not the kind of guy who likes to gossip about others. What's more, Fran felt that the reason why Ibrahim was not very satisfied was because Lagerbeck was criticized for being cautious and saying that bad was a negative tactic.

In the opening match of the 04 European Cup, this party belonging to Portugal was warmly cheered by the home fans, but it was Greece that defeated Portugal in an upset. Two days later, Denmark played 2 games in Group C, Denmark 0-0 Italy, Sweden 5-0 Bulgaria.

"In this year's Swedish national team, they showed super attacking power!!"

- Although they implemented a 4-4-2 defensive formation, this sentence was swallowed by countless people.
