Chapter 55: The Imagination of the Media
In the 54th minute, Auxerre won a free kick in front of the goal, and Lamouche's free kick found Blanco again, but Blanco's header was slightly wide. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
In the 67th minute, Bordeaux counter-attacked again, Zinedine Zidane won the ball in midfield and used the Marseille maneuver that he would later become a trademark to pass through the three, and it was he who formed a 4-on-4 situation with Witzger, Castan and Taurott with the opposing back four. Taurott's irregular movement in the box caused Auxerre to loosen up a bit at the back, and Witzger also rushed into the box, which was already a little chaotic when Witzger and the full-backs who defended him were even more chaotic. Zinedine Zidane saw the opportunity and raised his foot at the top of the arc to shoot from distance, but as the goalkeeper's view was blocked by the players in the box, it was too late for the goalkeeper to see the ball, and he could only watch the ball enter the top left corner of the goal.
The Bordeaux players simply celebrated and then started the game again, and they were about to score another goal.
In the 75th minute, Vincent made two substitutions, Kaussi replaced Lucas, and Bancarel replaced Taurott.
In the 78th minute, a corner kick opportunity in Bordeaux, Bancarel grabbed the first landing point under the cover of two central defenders, but the ball was confiscated by the goalkeeper.
After that, although both sides still had opportunities, they failed to grasp them.
The final score stayed at 2:1, and Auxerre scored three points at home, taking an important step towards the championship. Although Bordeaux lost, the team was more united, and Fan Shang got the right to speak.
After the game, Fan Shang still ran to Juyilu in front of him to ask for warmth, and Juyilu also smiled.
"Fan Shang, you were two teams in the first and second halves, what did you do at halftime?" Guyiru asked curiously.
"Mr. Lu, I just made a little adjustment and changed people once." Fan Shang said modestly
"Just call me Guy. You're very good, I'm optimistic about you among the young French coaches. Guy was very satisfied with Fan Shang's modesty, "I'm about to retire, will you take over my shift?" Guy looked at Fan Shang with appreciation.
"I don't have the skills. Besides, you're not yet 60 years old, you're still healthy, and you'll have no problem coaching for more than ten years. "Vincent doesn't want to go to Auxerre, and although he respects Guy Guyrous, it's too much pressure to coach after a former manager of such prestige. If you have good grades, he will leave you with good capital, and if you have bad grades, your level is too poor, and you will not be said to be good anyway. David Moyes is a prime example of this.
"Haha, you're too modest, Asians are humble." Guy laughed, he was glad that others said he was in good health.
Then after a few more words, Fan Shang returned to the lounge.
Although the team lost in the lounge, the players were in good spirits, and although they only pulled one goal back in the second half, the confidence of the Bordeaux players returned, and they were completely sure of Fan Shang in their hearts. Except for Dugarry and a few of his little friends.
Fan Shang just comforted the players, and he didn't say much about the gambling contract, everyone knew it very well. If you don't say that those who obey will obey, it will also obey, and it is useless for you to urge those who do not obey.
At the press conference after the game, Fan Shang only mentioned his admiration for Guyu, and all the others were ignored and perfunctory. The reporters below are also surprised, this Fan Shang still talked a lot when he first took over Bordeaux, why do you always say the other way around. If he keeps being like this, where will the news of our reporters come from?
The reporters below didn't get any useful information from Fan Shang, so they had to make it up themselves.
The next day, such a story appeared in the sports section of Le Figaro. "The Language Barrier" is to the effect that Fan Shang's French is not up to par, and there is a big obstacle to communication with the players and the media. The previous unbeaten run in the first few games had been lucky, and yesterday's defeat to Ousterre was a testament to his poor communication with his players. The reticence of the post-match press conference was further proof that Vincent had a low level of French and was unable to communicate well with the media. Finally, he said that this is a common problem among Asian immigrants.
Fan Shang was stunned after reading it. "I'll go, there's something like this. In my last life, I spoke French, and in this life, I am a master of psychology, and both of us can study French classical literature together. Now this unscrupulous media actually says that he can't speak well and can't communicate. This is a ridiculous joke! Fan Shang was completely speechless to those unscrupulous media.
At this time, the phone rang, and Fan Shang answered it.
"Hello, Vincent, I'm François. I heard your French isn't very good, I can teach you! François's voice laughing and talking came from the other end of the microphone.
"Hello, don't mess around here." Fan Shang was helpless, "These reporters are really good, I don't speak French well, and I have problems communicating with the players?" He can think of it! ”
"You don't have to be so angry, I heard that you said a sentence back and forth several times at the press conference, so that other reporters really have nothing to write about, so they wrote such a report. You should say a few more words in the future, and don't hide everything so tightly. François felt that it was not all about the journalists.
"There's nothing to say about the last loss in itself, what do you ask me to say. Say that the players don't listen to my command, that our team is infighting? Fan Shang heard François exonerate the reporter, he was immediately a little unhappy, "I'm not angry, it's just that the page of this article is too funny, if I was born in the Celestial Empire and then came to France, he said that I have no opinion." But now I'm a native of France, and he says I don't speak my native language! I kind of remember this reporter, and it would be strange if I could make him understand a word in the next interview. Fan Shang made up his mind.
"Okay, I won't tell you so much, today I want to tell you that the club is changing hands a little bit eyebrow-raising." François continued: "Buyers are very sure of your coaching ability, and if you can continue to perform like this, you will still be the manager of Bordeaux next season. ”
"Oh? Really? What do you think of me? I don't know which big guy it is. Fan Shang was a little stunned.
"You can't say it now, you'll know when the time comes. Okay, that's it, I'll let you know if there's any update. Goodbye and good luck," François said
"Thank you, goodbye, and good luck." Vincent hung up on François's side before putting down the phone.
New buyers? Think I'm good? If he goes through, I could still be Bordeaux manager next year?
While it shouldn't be difficult for Vincent to leave now and find a new job, Vincent doesn't want to lose the Bordeaux platform, which at least makes its debut in European competitions every year.
Who could it be? Fan Shang seemed to have grasped something.
