Chapter 56: Winning streak
******
After coming out of the team office building, I saw David. Silva and Raul. Albiol was still working the extra training, but then he showed a surprised expression.
Because it's so incredible, Navarro and Aurelio actually stayed behind for training!
It's incredible!
I polished the 'dog's eyes' again, and after finding that I was indeed not mistaken, I ran over quickly, "Hey, let's practice together?" β
After hearing Iro's voice, the four people of the additional training stopped their movements and looked at him, and Navarro, the god stick, took the lead in a sassy posture and began to blow the cowhide: "It must be!" We are positive and good students who love training. Training is a balance to keep a balance, on the one hand is to pay, on the other hand is to gain, less to pay less to gain, more to pay more to gain, no work will be gained! To achieve the desired results, diligence is crucial! Only by training diligently can we achieve a better life! Diligence produces genius, this is a banner that will never fade, it will always inspire us to continue to pursue and explore"
Except for Navarro, who spoke, the other four people instinctively shivered, goosebumps just rose, and they all thought: This girl must have gone crazy recently!! It must be crazy!!
Then the four of them tacitly raised their middle fingers at Navarro.
However, it was soon protested by Navarro: "You are discriminating against literature!" You must know that your actions today will directly lead to the early fall of a rising thinker in the European literary world! β
I'll go! What could you be more shameless?
That's what the crowd thinks.
Everyone's shamelessness towards Navarro could no longer be expressed in words, so they silently distanced themselves from Navarro.
"Okay, let's stop teasing you. By the way, Ai - did the old man ask you to talk about the new contract? Seeing everyone's strange expressions, Navarro knew that the fun was almost over, so he put away his hippie smile, came to Iroh, and asked.
Everyone was also very curious about Iroh going to the head coach's office just now, so they raised their ears one after another, as if they were afraid of missing a word.
Arlo didn't speak, but quickly put away the middle finger that he had stretched out before, and then gave a high thumbs up, making the meaning clear at a glance.
You're hanging the sky!
"Hehe, as Ben Daisen expected......" Navarro seemed to be in pretending mode again.
"Don't pretend to force us to be good friends!" Iroh hurriedly threw out a phrase commonly used in later generations.
"Ditto!" Aurelio hurried to follow.
"Ditto!"
"Ditto!"
Navarro didn't have any special feelings about their words, but said lightly: "Okay, I really don't play anymore!" Actually, it's like this......"
After listening to Navarro's words, everyone suddenly realized that the secretary of the club president Soler was the daughter of Navarro's cousin's uncle's uncle's cousin's son's father's neighbor's neighbor, but everyone was stunned for a moment.
"By the way, Ai - do you have an agent?" Navarro began to show his fox tail.
"Nope!" To the second question asked today, Iroh answered it naturally.
"Would you like to introduce you to my agent?" Navarro's fox tail began to show a large chunk.
Not far from the side sat Aurelio and Albio and David. Silva began to analyze, "I can bet! This guy must have been entrusted by his agent! β
This was immediately met with David. Silva and Albiol were disdainful for a while!
It's a blow to our IQ!!
"Uh......" Arlo instinctively wanted to refuse, but then thought about it, anyway, I don't have an agent yet, why don't you try? It really doesn't work, and then I'll change it then! The style of doing what you want to do is vividly played, and then she said, "Yes!" β
David. Silva began muttering to Albiol next to him, "Aiβthat's so unproductive!" I won't even refuse!! β
Albiol didn't think and nodded directly in agreement with David. Silva's point of view.
"Okay! Then after this round of the league, I'll help you ask my agent out! Navarro replied happily when he thought that his agent's request had finally been fulfilled.
Iroh nodded, and assumed to agree.
The next five people continue to practice.
In the end, under the warning of the head coach, they came to the locker room to shower and then went home.
******
The opponent in the 27th round of the 04-05 La Liga season is the promoted Albacete team who is ready to come to La Liga to take an elevator, although it is an away game, but the whole team has no doubt that it will win this game directly.
Albacete FC is located in Albacete, Autonomous Community of Castilla-La Mancha. Founded on August 2, 1940, it is one of the youngest football clubs in Spain.
Historically, Albacete FC has been a major football player in Spain, but there are few achievements to boast about in the team's history.
However, this small club has produced many well-known players such as Camacho and Morientes who have made a name for themselves after joining Real Madrid from this club.
The home stadium of Albacete FC is called Carlos Bimondi Stadium. With a capacity of about 17,300 fans, the stadium is a bit small in La Liga.
Although the team finished bottom of the league, it did not hinder the enthusiasm of the fans. Before the game even began, the home fans in the stands sang their anthems, occasionally chanting the names of the players under the leadership of the fans.
For fans who have been doing it all the way from the beginning, Iroh is very appreciative!
So he decided to conquer the stadium!
Prior to this game, Claudio Ranieri had been rehearsing his team's latest attacking tactics, with the centre or right of the team starting the middle and finishing from the left or centre.
Claudio Ranieri's creation was inspired by Ayro's successive goals, and it was an efficient finish, an efficiency that no manager can ignore.
This latest offensive system is certainly a bit biased, and it is also a bit of a suspicion of being in a hurry, but there should be no problem in winning the league vice-president.
Sure enough, in the away game against Albacete, Valencia beat the home team 3-0 away.
The visiting Valencia can be said to have blossomed more in this game, first in the 17th minute of the game, Ailo used his personal ability to break through on the left side and crossed, Ferrer stopped the ball on his chest, and then used his body to lean on the opponent's central defender and volleyed home with his left foot.
It's a world wave!
The second goal came a little simpler, and it was in the twenty-ninth minute of the game. Silva received Albelda's long pass and didn't stop the ball and crossed directly with his left foot, Ferrer's fulcrum had an obvious effect, jumping high near the penalty spot and rubbing the header, Iello didn't stop the ball near the left side of the penalty area and fired a direct right-footed volley, the football stuck to the turf into the bottom left corner of the goal, and the home goalkeeper could only look at the ball and sigh.
The third goal is also Valencia's old offensive routine, in the fifty-fifth minute of the game, Ailo took the ball on the left side and shook two Albacete defenders in a row, and then Ferrer attracted two defenders in front of the point, leaving a big gap at the back point, for such a big gap, Ailo will definitely not let go, the right foot passed a ball over the top, fell to the back point no man's land, David. Silva slapped the ball and shot straight to the top right corner of the goal, forcing the Albacete goalkeeper to scoop the ball out of the goal for the third time.
Because the good old man Ranieri was moved by compassion and couldn't bear to embarrass the deputy squad leader Albacete too much, he used Raul. Albiol replaces the active Elo.
It is worth mentioning that after this guy got off the field, he muttered a little about the manager's substitution, in other words, he was dissatisfied with being replaced.
However, on the surface, you still have to act like you don't have a problem, and you come off the pitch with a clapping of the fans who come with the team, then a high-five with the assistant coach of the head coach and finally the players on the bench.
Being a man is like acting, you have to do enough!
In this way, Valencia won two consecutive league games.
******
After this match, Ranieri learned wisely, because this time he brought Elo, who has been a bit of a 'little hot' in Spain lately, to the post-match press conference.
The noisy press conference scene, because the head coach and players of the away team came, began to gradually quiet down, after all, everyone's professionalism is very high, and everyone understands that time is money.
So they all started waiting for the away team's press officer to speak.
Mercedes. Yuri coughed, and only after the scene was completely quiet did he slowly say, "From now on, everyone has fifteen minutes of free time for interviews!" β
Suddenly, there were 'clicks' and flashing lights at the scene, and one of the female reporters with the work ID of the "Marca" newspaper stood up first, looked at Iroh on the far right, and asked, "Ai, can you answer me a question?" β
Instead of answering directly, Iroh turned his face sideways to look at the stern-looking press officer, and saw Mercedes. Yuri nodded before nodding to the female reporter.
If the reporter is more careful, he can see that Iroh is a little nervous, because he keeps rubbing his hands under the table.
"I heard that you still have the lowest contract for the youth team, is that true?" Marca is one of the best-selling newspapers in Spain, and the questions are always controversial.
While Iroh was hesitating, the team's press officer, Mercedes. Yuri stood up and spoke first, "I'm sorry for this beautiful reporter, this question has nothing to do with this game, so according to the rules, this can be left unanswered." "Extremely resolute!
and Mercedes. The Marca reporter, who Yuri had spoken to many times, knew that this was a difficult role, so he asked questions about the game instead.
******
Although Iroh did not answer that question, it did not affect the publication of the newspaper the next day, and the newspapers, mainly "Marca", left a large page for Iroh in the lower left corner of their La Liga page, with the headline: Phenomenal table xiΓ n, take the minimum guarantee contract of the youth team? The article directly satirized the team's chairman Soler, "As the president of Spain's old powerhouse, he is so stingy with a rising star, with a weekly salary of 800 euros, no appearance fee, no goal bonus, and no assist bonus, is this the treatment that a player who can score a hat trick at the Bernabeu should have?" Later, he also used words to describe the amazing table of Iro's four consecutive games, which attracted a lot of attention to the main article.
With global daily newspaper sales on a downward trend, the European Union has seen a decline in newspaper sales in the last 5 years4. 2%, down 7 in the last 10 years. 7%, but this issue of Marca is estimated to remain unchanged.
Other newspapers such as As, Valencia Sport, Orange City Daily, and Daily Sport also published about Elo's salary, but more often than not, not as much as Marca, which had a large page to describe it.
