Lin Sen sat in the coach's seat with a calm face, and the enthusiastic cheering of the Malaga fans was heard in his ears.

The Rose Garden, which has been away from La Liga for two seasons, has had a good attendance rate this season, coupled with the team's competitiveness, ordinary games can have nearly eighty percent of the attendance, and when they meet a stronger team, they can basically be full, such as the game against Real Madrid, which is almost hard to find. For such a rose garden, Lin Sen couldn't be dissatisfied. The stadium is a stage, and the stage needs an audience, and the more the audience, the better.

However, as for whether the fans can play the role of the team's "twelfth man", perhaps because of the lessons of Atletico Madrid, Lin Sen has never dared to hope for it, let alone expect the fans to live and die without regrets. For this, Lin Sen saw it very thoroughly, so much so that it was a bit extreme. Sometimes he even maliciously speculates that those fans who often claim that they have no regrets no matter what the team is, in fact, there are only two situations, either they don't love deeply enough, or the team doesn't lose badly enough.

Because, the difference between no complaints and no regrets, and indifference, is very subtle.

In comparison, it is still the fans like the fat driver before who are more real: there are reasons for disappointment, and there are excuses for relief. A momentary boo sometimes doesn't mean a no, and so does applause. Therefore, the support of the fans has always been won by the team itself, not by demanding.

After all, for the fans, it's more about freedom, and for the team, it's more about responsibility.

Unai Emery is undoubtedly one of the most promising coaches in Spain at the moment.

The Spanish coach, who looks like the famous Hollywood superstar Keanu Reeves, has a coaching career that is not as dramatic as Linson's, nor as high as Pep Guardiola's starting point, he came from a football family, but like most coaches, after an unsuccessful career as a player, he retired to become a coach, and then started from a low-level team and rose step by step.

Before taking charge of Valencia, Unai Emery's previous team was Almeria, a young team that was only born in 2001. Unai Emery took charge of Almeria in '06 and led the team to promotion to La Liga that season, becoming the youngest team in La Liga. Subsequently, last season they were successfully relegated after being regarded as relegation favorites, and the result was a surprising eighth place.

It was with Almeria's success that Emery received an olive branch from Valencia.

Emery doesn't know about the "little story" between Linsen and Valencia, so unlike Linsen, Malaga is a real ordinary opponent for him. Although this opponent has been weighing on them this season, even if they have not lost a single game so far. But as he said at the press conference: I don't take Malaga lightly, and there is no reason to take a team higher than us down.

Emery lived up to his word.

Valencia have been known for their ability to blitz this season, with nearly half of their goals coming in the first fifteen minutes of their last nine matches, and Unai Emery's Bats always seem to be able to get into the rhythm of the game, but this game came after a few trials in the early stages. Valencia, on the other hand, took the initiative to slow down the tempo and played unhurriedly, seemingly determined to have a marathon match with Malaga.

Linson knew what Emery was thinking, nothing more than trying to disrupt the rhythm of Malaga.

As we all know, Malaga plays defensive counterattacks, and defensive counterattacks pay attention to a fast word, whether it is passive in defense or active in counterattacking, the team must be fast. And if the tempo slows down, the defense can certainly have more time to prepare, but at the same time, the counterattack loses its foundation.

Emery's conspiracy went well, because Valencia did have the capital to take Malaga with him.

Valencia's "double David" has long been the object of the duo's hook-up in the Western Super League, Mata, who joined on a free transfer from Real Madrid last season, has a faint "Silva second" style, Joaquín on the right was once the sharpest winger in La Liga, and the midfielder is a pair of old and strong famous partners: Albelda and Baraja...... Purely from the cards, Valencia's midfield is not even lost to Real Madrid and Barcelona, and it is very comprehensive, with experience and experience, technology and impact, almost everything.

Linsen suddenly felt a little honoured to be able to make a team like Valencia have to be careful with Malaga, which is really something to celebrate for a promoted team like Malaga. It's just that at the same time, Lin Sen also felt a little helpless about this, but Malaga lost the advantage of the dark horse so quickly. The reason why a dark horse can become a dark horse is because of the contempt of the opponent and the unfamiliarity of the opponent. Obviously, these two points are not advantages that can be relied on for a long time, which is why the dark horse always seems to lack stamina.

In the targeted training before the game, Lin Sen once again let the team return to high pressing, and it was a key training. And now, the results of the training are gradually showing on the field.

As the heart of Valencia's organisation, David Silva now feels like hitting a wall, and more than one.

David Silva has been playing in a very flexible position in this game, or this season, although he is theoretically playing Emery's 442 as a left midfielder, but unlike Joaquín on the right, who is purely an attacker, Emery does not limit his position, but gives him a great deal of freedom, and he can shoot inside at any time, or pull out space horizontally, or pass the ball to create a killing chance, according to his own judgment......

David Silva has rewarded Emery's trust handsomely: four goals and six assists in nine games. Not only that, but he also led Valencia's attacking line to life, with Villa, who is on the same level, scoring 80 goals in nine games, and the famous Mata scoring 5 goals in 8 games, that is, just these three people contributed 17 goals to Valencia, accounting for as much as 70% of the team's total goals.

For Emery, it's a sharp weapon. For Lin Sen, this is the murder weapon.

Since it is a murder weapon, of course, you can't let the opponent show it lightly.

As a result, Silva enjoyed the treatment of "Aguero", whenever he got the ball, Malaga always had three players form a pinch against him, and then greeted him vigorously: three missing one, come quickly!

At the beginning, Silva, who didn't believe in evil, really went to the bureau a few times, and the consequences can be imagined. After a few times, Silva burst into tears.

Silva's tears meant that Valencia's offensive was more than half less. Coupled with Joaquin's mute on the right flank, who was strangled to death by Cork and Alba, Emery soon discovered that Malaga's rhythm had not been disrupted by Valencia, but Valencia's own rhythm had begun to be disrupted.

Without waiting for Unai Emery to make adjustments, Malaga had already seized the opportunity first.

One of the characteristics of the attacking Spanish team that Linson likes to see is that they tend to give too much responsibility to the defensive midfield, and the bigger the team, the more so. Valencia is no exception, and if the duo of Albelda and Baraja had been three years ago, they would never have made such a mistake.

Allowing Lewandowski to easily unload a long pass from Gundogan and wait until he calmly turns around before pressing him? What's the difference between this and the legendary American West cowboy duel where the opponent pulls out his gun before aiming himself?

Valencia's backline is undoubtedly much more mediocre than their talented frontline, although they also have the likes of Albiol, and after Marchena's reckless tackle was deftly flashed by Lewandowski, Albiol was able to try to change the course of the ball when the opponent was shooting, but even this last-ditch effort became a fatal factor in disrupting goalkeeper Renan's judgment.

After the shot, Lewandowski followed the ball, watching it go over Albiol's toes, watch it go around Renan's fingertips, and then, over the goal line, hit the net, sending ripples......

The fifth!

This is his fifth goal in the league, five goals in ten games, for a striker, the goal rate is not high, and there is no comparison with the goal rate when he was still in the Polish league, but it doesn't matter, the coach said: as long as he can score, the team will definitely make every goal of his life full of value!

The value lies in victory.

Linson's words were no joke: his first four goals brought Malaga four wins.

Which is more important, individual goals or team wins? Lewandowski just knows that if he can't win, what's the use of scoring more goals?

The "GOOOOO......" commentator from Malaga finally found an opportunity to show off his lung capacity, and the long prolonged note ignited the Rose Garden Stadium and the many Málaga fans who were watching the match on Guò TV at the time.

"Which side scored?" When she heard that sensational voice, Mrs. Cruz, who was sitting in her chair, asked hurriedly.

"Lin's team." Cruz Sr. replied with a smile.

"Yes. That should be celebrated. Mrs. Cruz was at once rejoicing, and as she spoke, she got up and poured herself a glass of juice, and then a glass of wine for old Cruz.

"Cheers. For Lin's team. Mrs. Cruz's posture was a little clumsy, but her face was full of smiles. Although she didn't know much about football, it was the first time she had watched a game with her husband, and more importantly, it was the first time that his husband invited her to watch a game with him.

“…… Cheers. Looking at his wife, who took the initiative to pour himself wine for the first time, as if he was even happier than himself, old Cruz seemed to pluck for a moment, and he took the wine glass for a while before he spit out a sentence.

Then, the two cups gently collide together in the air.

Cruz Sr. actually wanted to tell his wife that it was just a goal, not a victory, that the game was far from over, and that the celebration needed to be appropriate, but when he saw his wife's face that seemed to be stretched out all of a sudden, he still kept his mouth shut.

Like many old women, after being busy for most of her life, her wife's figure has become fat, her face has begun to slacken, and the hands that have held her for most of her life have been covered with calluses unconsciously, but she is still her wife. Like many men, Cruz Sr. also had a lot of unfulfilled promises to his wife, skiing in the Alps, exploring Loch Ness, hanging out at Notre Dame Cathedral...... Every promise seems to be fulfilled as long as there is time, however, it is always missed again and again, intentionally or unintentionally. Time passed, and many promises gradually became unfulfillable.

Cruz Sr. knew that his wife had no regrets, and he didn't feel much regret. But just now, he suddenly felt extremely guilty, and then, there was a thought in his heart that suddenly became extremely strong.

At the very least, I should have taken her to a live game!
