Chapter 295: The league ends

Luton Town, promoted from the First Division, won the First Division title, which became a hot topic across England after the game.

Luton fell to the bottom from being deducted 30 points, but he didn't expect to bottom out, and the soul of this is naturally Gao Bo!

Gobo led the team from the second division to the first division, and now led Luton back to the Championship, which is naturally terrifying!

And more importantly, Gao Bo not only has the honor of winning the lower leagues, he also won the English FA Cup last season, and this season he led the team to the final of the Europa League!!

At the age of only 28 years old, such an incredible achievement is naturally indispensable to the praise of the media.

After the game, there were many media articles praising Gao Bo, who is now regarded by the English media as one of the most promising young coaches in all of Europe.

And Gao Bo did not appear publicly in the media at this time.

Because for Gao Bo, the most important game of the season is the Europa League final in ten days!

Lead the third tier team to win the Europa League!

Such an incredible achievement is sure to make Gao Bo one of the most impressive managers on the planet, and no team can ignore the existence of such a head coach at that time!

After winning the league title, the focus of all the team's work naturally shifted to the Europa League.

If they can win the Europa League, they will be the most special team in the history of the Europa League – they are not from the top flight, they are not giants, they are a small team from the third tier!

In today's increasingly commercialized football, it is almost impossible to have such a miracle, and there are still many people who are amazed by Luton's achievements, if it is not the reality of the living appearance in front of people, it is estimated that many people listen to this kind of thing as a fairy tale.

Dick silk counterattacks, grassroots rises, and the story of the little man defeating the giant can always be loved by people.

And in reality, how many such stories can there be?

And Luton Town isn't just grassroots – their Europa League win is basically the same as an ant overturning an elephant!

Win the Europa League! They will make history and will forever write a glorious mark in the history of the Europa League and European football!

It's an attractive future, but the only question is whether they can beat Atletico Madrid in the final!

........

This season's Europa League final is held on 13 May at the Intario Arena, home of Luton's semi-final opponents Hamburg, which is of course known as the Hamburg Arena on the UEFA side.

And before that, there are two more rounds in the English First Division!

Gao Bo intends to give up these two rounds of the league, and he mainly uses these two games as warm-up matches before the Europa League final, to adjust the condition of the players and feel the atmosphere of the game.

As for the result, no one cares anymore.

Anyway, even if they lose all, Luton will be able to press the league title, and the preparation for the Europa League final against Atletico Madrid will also start from this time.

Gao Bo revised his training plan, and everything revolved around the characteristics of Atletico Madrid's opponent.

Atletico Madrid has been in the back of a decade and is just showing signs of rising from the quagmire.

In the past two years, Atletico Madrid has declared that it wants to "return to Spanish tradition"!

So the coach they found was also a Spanish coach. Under the leadership of the new head Flores, they have tightened their control in the midfield, emphasizing the use of width on both sides!

Reyes and Simão on both sides of the midfield have good breaking ability.

And in the forward line, the luxurious combination of Diego Forlan and Aguero is enough to be the envy of all European teams!

Sergio Aguero, Forlan, Simão, Reyes, Uj Farousi, Antonio. López, De Gea, Perea, Raul. Garcia, Assunsan, Jurado......

This is a group of stars that have reunited at Atletico Madrid three years after Torres left!

At least in Gao Bo's view, this group of people is really star-studded, and it is a pity that such a group of people can only finish eighth in La Liga.....

In order to familiarize the players with their opponents as quickly as possible, every player watches the opponent's game footage after training these days.

The coaching staff made an edit of the video of Atletico Madrid's matches in the Europa League and the league for the players to watch repeatedly!

Knowing the strengths and weaknesses of the opponent allows the players to form a rough picture of Atletico Madrid in their minds.

As for the opponents of the league, it doesn't matter so much.

........

In the forty-fifth round, the team played away against Wycombe Rovers.

Before the game, the coach of Wycombe Rovers praised the achievements of Gao Bo and his team, both promoted horses, this season's Wycombe Rovers can only be relegated in the first division, and now they are only one point ahead of the relegation zone, and they may be in danger of relegation at any time.

Therefore, Wycombe Wanderers' praise for Luton Town can also be seen as a pre-match overture to get Luton to show mercy to them.

In fact, Gao Bo didn't care too much about the outcome of this game.

The starters were full substitutes, with some players coming from the youth team.

Because the main players played the match against Leeds United three days ago, Gao Bo naturally did not let the players play such a high-intensity rhythm as one game in three days.

And the Wycombe Rangers, who want to be relegated, are united in their hearts.

In the end, they won 2-1 at home to Luton Town and picked up the crucial three points on the road to relegation.

After the game, some relegation teams thought that Luton was suspicious of playing tacit balls, but such voices were quickly silenced.

Luton have already won the title ahead of schedule, and with the Europa League final just a few days away, can they afford to play in a game like this?

If you want to blame it, you can only blame the luck of the Wycombe Wanderers.

Three days after that game, Luton Town continued to play on the road.

In the forty-sixth round of the league, all the matches in this round of the First Division kicked off at the same time.

Now the suspense of winning the championship is gone, and the suspense left in the first division is the battle for second and third places, and then the race of life and death between the teams in the relegation zone.

Luton's away game against Southampton was nothing to look at, Luton have already won the title, and Southampton are also relegation-free, currently in fifth place, four points clear of sixth place and six points behind second, and are destined to play in the promotion play-offs. Both sides are considered desireless.

In the end, the two teams played to a 2-2 draw.

Southampton did not lose at home, while Luton Town avoided the embarrassment of two consecutive league defeats.

The last two league games ended the season with one draw and one defeat.

But no one is going to blame Gao Bo and his team for this.

Having won the league titles, what's wrong with giving up the league in order to prepare for the Europa League final?

If someone jumps out to criticize at this time, I'm afraid they can only be regarded as idiots...
