Chapter 256: Goal Drought
******
Getafe is one of the satellite cities of the autonomous region of Madrid, the capital of Spain, and one of the three La Liga teams in Madrid, the capital of Spain, this season, the permanent population of this small city is not large, only about 50,000 people, so as the home of the satellite city of Getafe Football Club, the Alfonso Pérez Stadium is also one of the few small stadiums in Spain, which can only accommodate 14,400 people.
At the same time, this club is also the youngest club in the entire La Liga league.
However, the actual founding year of the team was 1920, but in the following six decades, the team changed its name several times, and finally officially established itself as "Getafe Football Club" on March 30, 1983.
But such a junior football club in La Liga can survive in the divided La Liga league, of course, they have their advantages, they regard the capital team Real Madrid as their leading big brother, and they always do Real Madrid's point boy at critical times, so the two teams have become brothers.
Young players who are talented in the Castilla training camp but can't be promoted to Real Madrid's first team are always sent to Getafe and more often than not... Real Madrid also shows the style of big brother, all kinds of free.
Even Enrique Flores, who was an academy coach at Real Madrid, was sent to Getafe last year, which shows how good the relationship between the two teams is.
Therefore, the day before this game... When the current president of Real Madrid, Florentino, said intentionally or unintentionally when he was interviewed by the reporter of the "As" newspaper: "Huh? The match between Getafe and Valencia? I certainly want Getafe to win, as for why? I can only hehe......"
Ángel Torres, the president of Getafe FC, reacted quickly and immediately gave the team's head coach, the German Schuster, a death order: "Stop Valencia no matter what!" ”
******
The day before the start of the sixth round of the Spanish Serie A match between Getafe and Valencia, the small satellite city of Madrid suddenly became lively, with black-haired and yellow-skinned Chinese everywhere.
Therefore, most of the local residents of Getafe are very surprised when they wake up in the morning and see a large number of Chinese, because most of the residents who live here may not have seen so many Chinese in their lives.
Residents of cities such as Dortmund, Amsterdam and Bremen reacted in the same veins as the original residents of Getafe.
But the opposite reaction of these indigenous residents is the local government officials, because the influx of so many Chinese means that their GDP will likely reach a new high this year.
Especially in satellite cities like Getafe, there are no famous enterprises, no beautiful scenery, and it is not an important transportation hub in Madrid, so it is difficult to have a day of GDP breakthrough, but these two days are different, and the influx of such Chinese means that there will be breakthrough income in food and housing.
It is said that after the influx of Chinese that day, the local conquest officials slept smiling.
In the end, though, the local government officials in Getafe were happy, but... Getafe fans are not happy.
******
Two hours before the game, the Alfonso Pérez Stadium was packed, and the atmosphere was very strong, but it was a bit unconventional.
The 14,400-seat Alfonso Pérez Stadium was flooded with at least 6,000 Chinese fans, who quickly transformed the stadium into a stadium with Chinese characteristics.
There are all kinds of strange hand-held slogans, such as: "China xx Co., Ltd. cheers for Ailuo", "Li xx we are on the scene, where are you"
What's even more outrageous is, "I: xx is 24 years old this year, begging... Girlfriend"
Of course, it is also indispensable to hold high the five-star red flag of Chinese students.
……
……
So when Iroh came out of the tunnel to warm up, the whole stand was full of Chinese elements, and he thought he was on the wrong pitch at the time, but then after seeing his teammates and opponents, he was sure that he hadn't made a mistake.
He Wei, who had the same expression as Ailuo, was also in charge of broadcasting the commentary of the game, "Wow, in the live football game during the National Day Golden Week, you can see such a Chinese flavor of the stadium, sometimes I have to say... More people is more power, I believe that the Chinese fans at this moment should also feel the atmosphere of the scene, right? ”
“…… Have you begun to regret not following the travel frenzy that preceded the National Day Golden Week? Don't be embarrassed, let's be honest... At this moment, sitting in the Beijing studio, I also regret why I didn't ask the relevant leaders for a leave in advance and take my girlfriend to Spain to watch a football game..."
He reacted quickly, and after receiving the signal from Alfonso Pérez Stadium, he replied to the commentator's job after a short moment of astonishment, explaining the live game before the game.
"The number of Chinese fans at the Alfonso Pérez Stadium in this match should not be less than five or six thousand, and these fans who went abroad to watch the game are really happy, and they can enjoy the style of Arlo up close......
******
For almost the entire game, the Chinese fans in the stands were in a high state of euphoria, and their voices were hoarse in the back, and they did not stop.
At the end of the game, the commentator of Spanish national television said: "Chinese fans deserve to be the most enthusiastic fans in the world. The hoarse voice is still loud......"
In the end, Valencia beat Getafe 2-0 away in this match.
Although Valencia defeated the home team Getafe in this game, the Chinese fans in the stands were a little regretful, because Ailo was very active in the whole game, but unfortunately he didn't score...
However, there was consolation for the fans in the stands who had travelled from China to the point that Valencia had scored two goals, one of which was caused by Aylo's breakthrough and a cross from the other, while the other was caused by his sharp penetration, which led to a slight nervousness of the Getafe defenders, and Aimar passed the ball to David Villa without any pressure, who then slotted it away.
David Villa scored twice to score his sixth league goal in the league and... It also surpassed the goal figures of Samuel Eto'o and others, second only to team-mate Iro's seven goals, and moved into second place on the scorers' list.
His impressive performance also won the favor of Spain coach Aragonés, who was named in the squad for the penultimate round of European qualifiers for the 2006 World Cup against Belgium seven days later.
******
Although Valencia returned to victory and topped the La Liga table with 16 points, they were found to be lacking by tricky journalists.
The next day, the La Liga column of the newspaper Marca stated: "Valencia's top scorer Ai has started a goal drought of more than 200 minutes since the end of the first round of the Champions League, which is nothing short of a disaster for a goalscorer who scored 25 goals in 14 league games last season..."
At the same time, the report of the newspaper "As" is almost identical, "After a hat-trick in the fourth round of La Liga and a brace in the Champions League this season, the amazing Chinese kid seems to have lost all his magic and suffered a goal drought... I'm sure many people believe that these are only temporary, but I don't think so, just like in this game, Schuster sent a special player to mark him all over the field, without a trace of slackness, if... Other teams in La Liga may follow suit, so... Can the magic of Wonder Boy continue? ”
Most of the Chinese tourists who stayed in Spain that day also bought the "Marca" and "As", which have a very strong influence in Spain, and when they saw these contents, their brows would be subconsciously tightened, because what the newspaper said seemed to make sense.
In fact, professional football newspapers like "Marca" and "As" have a very clear view of the current La Liga shì, and Real Madrid's biggest rival this season is not only Barcelona, but also Valencia.
Therefore, it is normal to focus on reporting the disadvantages of competitors, just like Iroh's goal drought in La Liga in these two rounds.
Although a goal drought is a normal thing for an offensive player, after all, he is a human being and not a god, and there will always be times when he doesn't score, but Marca and Ace just want to focus on this report, and they want to say that it is very exaggerated, saying that Ailo seems to really suffer from a goal drought for a long time.
Only in this way will the young Elo be under the pressure of public opinion, and the state of stability will gradually decline, which are what the pro-Real Madrid newspapers "Marca" and "As" are willing to see.
Because the next round of Real Madrid's opponent is Valencia!
"Marca" and "As", which usually praise Elo, can tell whether Ailo is not, and for the black Ai special user "World Sports Newspaper", it is natural that they will not join in this excitement.
Juan Carlos summed up everything about Iello in the Marca and Ace newspapers that day, and then wrote in his column: "Allow me to be proud here, because I predicted a long time ago that the hateful Chinese boy is a shooting star!" And the truth is exactly what I predicted, so far... He's gone two games without scoring for about 200 minutes, which is a disaster for someone who scored a goal every 50 minutes last season! Of course, we can also think of it as a kind of depravity, which is a common problem of any young player, who will always be triumphant after achieving good results, just like George Best in England, a talented player who is proud of his own talents, and his competitive form has plummeted......"
In this way, there was a very rare scene in which three of Spain's most influential newspapers bombarded a player.
And this player just didn't score in two games, and I have to say that the media industry really needs a little bit of technical content.
As the person concerned, Iroh is completely unaware of what is happening in the media world, and he still insists on training in the system to improve his flaws.
It was no accident that he did not score in the previous round, as Schuster stressed the need for the team to strengthen their defense while also asking the players to pay attention to the restrictions on Elo's space, which led him to not score in this game.
