Chapter 69: My Journey is a Sea of Stars

After Solari's second goal, Atletico fans began to feel completely relieved.

Although the game is not so good-looking, but after all, the championship is almost in hand, so what is there to worry about such a result? After a failed season, the two months before the end of the season finally gave them enough surprises, and after being relegated in a desperate situation, they can now bring their tenth Copa del Rey title, making Atletico the fourth team to reach double digits in the Copa del Rey titles!

Now Atletico Madrid fans can also look harder in the face of Real Madrid's fans!

However, what they didn't expect was that the next game would bring them more surprises.

After taking a two-goal lead, Atletico's players were completely let go, and Dick didn't ask them to kill time like before, with two goals in hand, giving them enough confidence to make the game look better.

So now the game is starting to get exciting, the two sides are constantly tugging back and forth, constantly creating opportunities, the boos in the stands are gradually disappearing, and the fans on both sides are cheering for their teams with loud shouts, applauding every threatening attack, and sighing for missed opportunities......

"It's only interesting when the game is played at this time!" The commentator of Spanish national television, who has a relatively neutral position, said with a smile on his eyebrows.

Before Atletico scored the second goal, the two sides had less than ten shots on goal combined, and in the next ten minutes, the two sides went back and forth thirteen times, and Atletico had seven shots on goal, one more than the Spaniards who were in a hurry to score!

However, such a number of shots did not result in a single goal.

Eighty minutes into the game, Dick began to make a series of substitutions.

Kiko replaced Julvaink Hasselbaink, Leal replaced Juninho and Paulovic replaced Solari to keep the movement and fitness on the pitch while also getting more players on the pitch.

When the game reached injury time, both the players and coaches on the Atletico bench stood up, stood in a row with each other's shoulders, and waited for the whistle to blow at the end of the game!

"Tenth! Seat 10! ”

There was a rhythmic cheer from the stands, and it was Atletico fans cheering for the trophy that was about to be in their hands!

"It seems that this championship is Atletico Madrid......"

In a luxurious box, Spain's sports minister muttered to himself.

Juan Carlos I, the king of Spain, who was sitting in the middle, smiled slightly, he was actually a little disappointed with this result, after all, compared to Atletico Madrid, he had a better impression of the Spaniards, but since Atletico Madrid's championship is now a foregone conclusion, he will not make any moves that discredit his identity.

After all, the club in Madrid won the championship...... Madrid is the capital of Spain, and the team from the capital won the championship, so it is natural that he, the king, needs to be happy.

Finally, after three minutes of stoppage time, the referee decisively blew the whistle for the end of the game!

40,000 Atletico Madrid fans burst into enthusiastic cheers at the same time, and they have not been relieved until now, you must know that this bad season, some things that happened before scared them, not waiting for the dust to settle, they really can't put their minds at ease, and even at this time, there are many Atletico Madrid fans who don't believe that they really won the Copa del Rey, because they have had such a dream many times before, but in the end it was just a dream......

"Hit me and see if it's a dream......," an Atletico fan said eagerly to his friend.

Then, there was a scream of "ah-", and the friend withdrew his hand, and said while shaking it: "I have never heard this kind of request in my life......

The one who was beaten seemed to have a shaking M attribute, and it hurt so much that he was beaten, but an ecstatic smile appeared - it turned out to be not a dream! It turned out to be true!

Atletico Madrid's players are also celebrating wildly on the field, whether they are still in the team next season or not, but this championship will also be their resume, the more championships, the more beautiful the resume, the better they can mix!

Dick let out a long breath, and only then could he really relax - from the temporary firefighting to the present, in less than two months, a month and twenty days, he led the team to play eight games, eight games and eight wins, and led Atletico Madrid, who had stepped into the relegation zone with one foot, to successfully relegate and win the Copa del Rey!

All this is of course incomparably brilliant, but underneath the brilliance, who can see Dick's trembling, treading on thin ice?

Head coaching is also a high-risk profession, under high pressure all the time, how many coaches have heart disease? No matter how strong your body is, it can't resist the pressure of every moment......

Now that the season is over, the pressure is like a tide receding from him, and he can finally relax - the life of a professional coach is like this, eleven months of hard work a year, a month of rest, in that month, it is not easy to rest his body and mind to the best state, not to mention that the coach can really rest during this time? It's impossible to let go of everything and rest......

At this point, though, he was able to put everything down and relax, especially when the players rushed over and lifted him up and threw him into the air.

It was only after a long celebration that the Atletico players endured their excitement and excitement and lined up under the rostrum to receive their medals and trophies from the King, with the Espanyol players receiving the silver medals.

After claiming the silver medal with their heads down, the Espanyol players quickly exited, and now it is the time of the championship, and the glory is not theirs.

Atletico's players lined up on the podium to receive their prizes, and Dick stood a little below the podium, looking around.

It was the first time he had looked down on the pitch from such a vantage point, and it was the majestic Bernabeu!

The rostrum is on the second floor of the stands, although it is not the highest point of the whole stadium, but overlooking down, the whole stadium seems to be under its own feet, between square inches, under its own control!

It's a good feeling.

Feeling the wind howling above the stands, Dick clenched his fists.

This Copa del Rey title was his starting point, the place where he became famous, but it would never be his end! This Spanish Copa del Rey championship is the first championship he has won, but it will definitely not be the only championship he has won!

Taking a deep breath, Dick made up his mind that if he wanted to become the top and best head coach in the world, he had to accumulate one honor after another!

If he can establish himself in the European arena and become the head coach of the first team according to his heart, there are always teams that ask him to coach, and he gets a salary of one or two million a year, and the chick soaks in a little wine and drinks, it will be enough, but after having that ring, Dick knows that his task is definitely more than that.

As the saying goes, the greater the power, the greater the responsibility, the more additional convenience Dick gets, the more honors he will receive, and the more things he will pursue!

Now is the first step, he already has a place to settle down, he has passed the point of "running all day long for hunger", and he should also start to pursue "only to have food and clothes"!

Ambition is the source of human progress, and desire is the driving force for human beings to practice their own values. Life in the world, the longest is not more than a hundred years, if you do not leave some traces that will be praised by future generations, how can you say that you have come to this world and walked once!

Seeing that the players in front of him had begun to walk towards the podium, Dick also smiled slightly and walked over.

Carlos I began to present medals to the players one by one, smiling at each of them, and said a few words to them until Dick came up, when he laughed.

"Young Chinese, what you have achieved this season is really amazing!"

Carlos I looked at Dick with admiration, and of course no one knew if he really admired Dick or just to maintain his own demeanor: "I went to China twenty years ago (Juan Carlos I visited China in 1978) and there were many things that impressed me, but not football...... I have to say that your appearance has changed my view of China again! Very good manager, I'm very happy to be in Spain! ”

"I guess it's too early for you to change." Dick laughed: "Maybe I coach the team very well, but this does not mean how good Chinese football is!" ”

Juan Carlos I was a little surprised to hear Dick's words, he didn't expect Dick to say this, but thinking about his age, he was relieved, it is normal for a young man in his early twenties to want to have some different expressions, and to be honest, except for Dick's performance this year, which surprised Carlos I, there is really nothing that can make Carlos I feel that there is anything powerful about other aspects of Chinese football......

After shaking hands with the king, Dick lowered his head slightly, and the next moment, the neck was slightly heavier, and Dick knew that the gold medal, which symbolized the King's Cup, had been hung around his neck......

Then, captain Aguilera took the Copa del Rey trophy from the Kings and held it high!

The entire stand erupted in enthusiastic cheers from Atletico fans!

Next, it was the turn to celebrate in the middle of the pitch – a makeshift platform had been erected in the middle of the pitch where Dick would raise a glass for Atletico!

The elder Hill was also present, in fact he was in the stands all the time, and he cheered with excitement when Atletico took the lead, he felt that he was not wrong, Dick is indeed a man who can bring Atletico back to glory!

He had missed it many times before, but this time, he was convinced that he was not wrong.

On the makeshift platform, Dick took the King's Cup from Aguilera's hand, and the smooth body of the cup made him feel a little cool.

This was his first victory!

After taking a closer look at the King's Cup, Dick took a deep breath and lifted the trophy high above his head with both hands!

A large amount of confetti was sprayed behind him, the stadium played with the music of "We Are the Champions", and there was a huge cheer from the stands, and Dick's eyes slowly moved up with the fluttering of confetti until he crossed the majestic roof of the Bernabeu and looked directly at the sky.

That's right, my journey is the sea of stars, how can this small river ditch be satisfied?

Dick thought to himself.
