55. Closing 1
Perugia is coached by local Kosmi, who only had experience in Serie B before taking charge of Perugia, but Gauci still used Kosmi, and as a result, Kosmi surprised the fans as they qualified for the International Toto Cup and reached the UEFA Cup this season.
This is their luck and their misfortune, it is precisely because of the pressure of the third-line battle, Perugia can not hold on, as a result of their results in the league is not very optimistic, until recently there has been an improvement, this season is actually a few rounds ago, the "battle" for relegation is white-hot, but with fewer and fewer leagues, this is clear.
Cosmi is a capable manager, but he can't stand Perugia's thin personality, Hugo said that the Gauci family has financial problems is not untargeted, and Gauci has done nothing in the summer except for the usual grandstanding in the transfer market, and he has done a lot of nonsense over the years.
Once he introduced Li Tie's compatriot Ma Mingyu, what age is Ma Mingyu a player, he was thirty years old when he arrived in Perugia, such a recruitment has no other meaning except for the brand effect, and it is true, Ma Mingyu went home without a game experience in Serie A.
In the summer transfer market of this season, Gucci made another strange move, he actually introduced Gaddafi Jr., the son of Villa leader Gaddafi, this little Gaddafi buddy is a football obsessive, and there must be football skills, but the level of Serie A is definitely not, Gucci is clearly a gimmick, unfortunately Gaddafi Jr. was found to have a positive urine test before he played, banned for several months, and only came back in May, playing more than ten minutes in the game against Juventus.
Then he sat on the bench and played Trapani in the final round, but he was still on the bench for the last round.
Bringing in Gaddafi Jr. is understandable, but Gauci's biggest gimmick in the summer was to bring in female footballers to Perugia and have a girl fight a group of men on the football field, which is absolutely brilliant.
Even Kosmi couldn't stand it anymore, and directly ridiculed his chairman that it was best to look at the three measurements when introducing players.
Of course, this did not happen in the end, and the Serie A League and the Football Association allowed Gauci to do such nonsense!
At the press conference after the last game against Empoli, Hugo broke the news that Gauci was a bastard and would soon be over, but Gauci was of course not convinced, and insisted that he would sue Hugo for defamation, but it was just a bluff, and in the end there was no follow-up.
This time in the press conference before the match against Perugia, Hugo was also unkind to Gauci, "Luciano. Gauci should get out of Perugia quickly, he will not do anything but grandstand, he once said that he would lead Perugia back to its former glory, and the result?! What was the result, now they are going to be relegated! I sympathize with Perugia fans, they have an unreliable boss who can't get anything real except to bluff! He always said that Perugia had been misjudged, but he was just making excuses! ”
Italian bosses are accustomed to looking for referees, once they lose, as long as the referee has a little bit of no, it will be expanded immediately, Gauci is the best at finding objective reasons for the boss, many times on different occasions to attack the referee, saying that he is persecuted.
Cosmi was helpless about Hugo's-for-tat confrontation with Gauci, belittling his boss to death, and said at the pre-match press conference: "I think Mr. Collaney should still focus on the game!" ”
The reporter asked him if Hugo's recent comments would have any impact on the Perugia team, and Cosmi vehemently denied it, but the truth is that it did have a big impact, and the reason is simple, the Perugia players have not received their salaries for two months, the club's financial problems are obvious, and the people's hearts are beginning to change.
On May 16, Reinado in Perugia. Curry's stadium is already full of spectators, most of them are Perugia fans, the team has signs of relegation, it is not good to say that this is the swan song in Serie A, Perugia fans will naturally hope to see if there is a miracle, and the away team Trapani also has a lot of fans, they are counting on the team to complete this miraculous season and get a place in the Champions League play-offs.
As far away as Trapani and Palermo, some fans waited by the TV early, and more went to the bar, and there was nothing more enjoyable to watch with friends.
Trapani's head of security, Fabio. Costa also arrived at Siglino's bar early, Costa felt that he was early, but he didn't expect Siglino's bar to be crowded.
"It's a big day!" Costa managed to squeeze to the bar and shouted at Siglino, who was busy.
"Who's to say it isn't!" Siglino turned his head from the busyness with a smile, sweating profusely.
In Hugo's home, today is also very special, Hugo once invited his family to Perugia, but his mother was the first to say that the heart can't stand it, how important this game is, needless to say, it can be called a thought of heaven and a thought of hell, losing may mean nothing, from next season there will be no International Toto Cup, either qualify for the Champions League, or get nothing, this is very likely, such a game Lida first said to her son that she does not want to go to the scene at all, Maybe wait at home.
For the family, they are not concerned about Trapani, but about Hugo, and everyone does not like Hugo as a manager to have a failed season.
The family gathered in front of the TV, and Grandpa Pasilio also wore a Trapani jersey today to show his support, not to mention others.
Back to Reinado. Curry Field, Away Locker Room.
Hugo was making his final speech, "I want to say something, but I don't know where to start!" I've already told you a lot of what I want to say! We are not a relegation battle in today's game, but I hope you can see him as a relegation battle and show the posture of a relegation war! ”
After saying this, Hugo fell silent, and the players were waiting for his next step, but Hugo was just silent.
"Nothing?!" Barrias's eyes widened for a moment to ask a question, surrounded by a silent crowd.
"Uh, no! There's a lot more to say, so let's wait until the game is over! In short, fight for our team! "Hugo disturbed the scalp.
Well, everyone was stunned, it didn't feel like cheering.
Hugo and Allegri came out of the locker room, and Hugo said, "Who has a cigarette?!" I want to smoke a cigarette! ”
This sentence fully reveals Hugo's inner tension and too much pressure.
The members of the coaching staff looked at each other, no one smoked, Hugo had to lock his eyes on the security brother in the passage, according to Italian law, the stadium is a public place to prohibit smoking, but occasionally make mistakes It's nothing, you don't see some managers in the coach's bench also swallowing clouds, the famous Lippi is such a person.
"Thank you!" Hugo took a puff of his cigarette and choked his throat very uncomfortably as he spoke, but he still didn't throw it away, and the security guard who gave him the cigarette smiled.
He walked outside while smoking, and when he walked out of the aisle, he was greeted by boos outside, which is not surprising, and it is strange that Perugia fans can have a good impression of him before this game.
Hugo walked to the coach's seat and sat down, no, Kosmi also came out, he was halfway to his coach's seat, returned, and walked to Hugo's side, Hugo quickly stood up, and the two shook hands very politely.
"Good luck!"
"Good luck!"
The mouth is very polite, and everyone has no personal prejudice and grudges, but everyone actually wants to say that they hope you don't have good luck today!
The referee on duty, Rod Morti, led the players from both sides to the halfway line of the pitch, with Perugia and Trapani both in the same formation, and Kosmi also using a three-five-two.
