Chapter 291: Innocence

Real Madrid won the Madrid derby by beating Atletico Madrid 2-1 away from home.

But for them, it doesn't help. They are still nine points clear of Valencia after losing away to Osasuna in their last league fixture.

The nine-point gap made their dream of a league championship very slim.

However, they don't care about them and the league championship odds.

There is only one thing that everyone cares about here.

That is whether Valencia passed the urine test in the match against Real Sociedad.

This incident has been a concern for everyone in the past week.

Even UEFA is watching.

At 8 p.m., the Spanish Anti-Doping Commission announced the results of their urine tests for the entire Valencia team.

All Valencia players, whether on the pitch or not, had a negative urine test result for all incoming arrivals!

This shows that they are not taking any illegal drugs, and their white spoon victories and honors are genuine and can stand the test!

"We thank Valencia FC for their cooperation. Many teams were disgusted when they heard our name, and Valencia showed their bright side. If all sports organizations were to cooperate like Valencia, we would be able to carry out much easier work and there would be no room for doping in the sports world......"

The Anti-Doping Commission is half-baked, all about promoting their white-spoon philosophy and being backward.

Not to mention the Valencia team.

This attitude made the Valencian media very angry.

The Provincial Newspaper wrote an article criticizing the arrogance of the Anti-Doping Committee.

"In many places, anti-doping committees are particularly arrogant because they have the power to kill and kill. Nowhere is this more evident than in this matter. Looking at their statements at the press conference, they did not pay at all for the negative impact on Valencia during this time! Not even sorry! They treated Valencia as if they were suspected of a crime from the beginning, as if there must be something wrong with Valencia. But why didn't they apologize after the results of the inspection? That's because they're arrogant! They don't think they need to apologize to us, as if proving our innocence is already a favor to us...... But I want to say that innocence is our white spoon, and we don't need you to prove it! ”

The rest of the Valencian media were indignant that the Anti-Doping Commission could not insult Valencia in such a way, but they did nothing.

Chang Sheng also spoke in this: "I didn't watch the news live in front of the TV, I have no interest in this matter. Because I know my players are all innocent. However, the practices and attitudes of the Anti-Doping Commission lack basic respect for our white spoons, and I hope that the Anti-Doping Commission apologizes for this matter! Because this is a bad start - they can investigate you in the absence of any evidence just because they suspect that you may have taken stimulants. It is a serious damage to our reputation! ”

Chang Sheng's words resonated with a lot of people, and the media expressed their support.

Eventually, under pressure from public opinion, the Anti-Doping Committee had to hold another press conference to apologize to the Valencia club and team, and admit that there was a mistake in their white spooning process, and that their white spooning work was influenced by the media...... As for this media, everyone knows who it is.

Now it's the turn of the newspaper Marca.

The newspaper Marca was the first to question the existence of a winning team.

Now that the winning team is innocent, they are naturally responsible for what they have said.

The second day, the newspaper Marca prominently placed a short apology on the front page.

They admit that their doubts are ill-conceived, and they speak out in a big way. As mass media, they should be strict about what they say and do. Marca would like to express its sincerest apologies for the damage and impact this incident has caused to the Valencia club and team.

Although the open letter of apology was brief, it was not easy to get Spain's largest professional newspaper to apologise for Valencia and Chang Sheng on the front page.

In the past, the newspaper "Marca" only bowed to giants such as Real Madrid and Barcelona...... and the unwarranted doping scandal has passed.

Soon everyone stopped talking about it.

Because there's something more noteworthy than this kind of thing.

For example, the Champions League semi-finals are just around the corner, Chelsea vs. Porto, Valencia vs. Monaco.

Italy's "Milan Sport" newspaper previously sourly said that this is a disgrace to the Champions League, because the best teams are all out, and all four teams are ** silk, which does not fit the name of the Champions League at all.

“…… Since UEFA transformed the Champions Cup into the Champions League, the excitement of the competition has been declining year by year. Too many non-championship teams entering the tournament will only make the game less enjoyable to watch and less important. In the long run, the Champions League will be abandoned by TV broadcasters and sponsors......"

This kind of negative dog's distant barking is not paid attention to at all.

Chang Sheng is busy preparing for the battle with Monaco.

Speaking before the game, he said Monaco were a formidable opponent and that it would be harder to play against them than against Real Madrid.

This phrase put the media of the Madrid region

The seven orifices of qi are smoking.

Monaco can also be compared to Real Madrid?

Monaco manager Didier Deschamps also gave friendly feedback before the game, saying that he had played for Valencia for a season before retiring from football, and that Valencia had made a deep impression on him, and he was delighted that Valencia had achieved such excellent results under the leadership of Constant Victory.

I can't even see the smell of gunpowder...... This kind of Hello, Me and Brother Good game makes the media who are used to covering and reporting on winning games feel very unaccustomed.

They are still waiting for a reversal, such as before the game, when the two sides suddenly have a dagger, throw out fierce materials, and start attacking each other.

As a result, I waited until the start of the game and did not wait until ...... Valencia's home game against Monaco began like this, leaving many media outlets feeling as if something very important was missing and they were not used to it.

※※※ Maybe it's really because Monaco is not a strong team compared to AC Milan, so the Valencia players are not interested, Bi Jing has just experienced such an exciting game, it is inevitable that there will be some carrying.

Perhaps it was because the atmosphere between the two sides before the game was so good that the Valencia players were also affected.

Or maybe it's because Chang Sheng used a lot of rotation in this game, which led to a decline in the overall strength of the team.

Anyway, the game was not exciting, and Valencia's performance was not very good.

After 90 minutes of play, Valencia finally beat Monaco 1-0 at home, leaving enough suspense for the second leg.

Monaco saw hope of knocking out Valencia to reach the final.

After the game, the media in the Madrid area gloated that Valencia had spent all their energy in the match against AC Milan, and now they are at the end of their power, and in the second leg two weeks later, Valencia had only one goal ahead of Valencia!

“…… In the end, Chang Sheng is still too young. In the last two rounds of the league, it has been too fierce. Especially in the game against Real Sociedad, he could actually replace the main players when he was leading by two goals in the first half, let them rest, slow down the pace of the game, and slowly rotate until the end of the game. But he chose to continue the attack. Although they beat Real Sociedad 6-0 at home in the end, they lost the fitness and form of the players, resulting in a collective slump in Valencia's performance in the Champions League in midweek......

"Although Valencia created a great classic against AC Milan, they will also stop in the semi-finals, is it worth it?"

In addition, Italy's Milan Sport newspaper is also gloating.

They say they don't fancy Valencia going further in the Champions League. They boldly predicted that the final would be between Porto and Monaco.

Jose Mourinho's Porto had just beaten Ranieri's Chelsea 3-1 at home stadium before the Valencia game.

After that game, there were rumours that Porto's young boss Jose Mourinho would take charge of Chelsea at the end of the season.

Because Abramovich is very appreciative of his performance in this semi-final. He is also the coach who led Porto to the UEFA Cup and Abramovich believes he can succeed at Chelsea.

Perhaps the reason for not choosing Chang Sheng is that there are too many negative reports about Chang Sheng in the media, and for Abramovich, who has not had any contact with Chang Sheng, he naturally will not be willing to deal with a manager who is always with the president of the club...... ※※※ The home game is only a one-goal win over Monaco, but this is not the rhythm of advancing to the final.

But the game happened and instead of bloodbathing his players in the dressing room, he announced that he would continue to take a break off, ignoring the weekend's league fixture and going away to Athletic Bilbao.

His decision, while controversial among the coaching staff, was welcomed by the players.

The players are really tired and having a holiday is a very happy thing for them.

Only Rudy. González looked worried: "We're going to San Mamés for the weekend. You know it's not easy to play away. ”

He shrugged his shoulders: "It's okay, even if we lose away to Athletic Bilbao, it won't pose any threat to us winning the league title." We're nine points ahead of Real Madrid. And we didn't play the white spoon game on the weekend, so was the Real Madrid game easy to play? You know, they're a Spanish derby! ”

"I'd rather believe in Real Madrid's form than Barcelona. And Real Madrid is still at home......"

Chang Sheng waved his hand: "Okay, okay, you can rest assured, it's not a big deal." ”

The reason why he looked confident in the weekend's league game was because he knew that the weekend's league game was the 34th round of the season.

It was from this round of the league that the 34th, 35th, 36th, 37th, and 38th rounds, all the way to the 38th round, Real Madrid was defeated!

Is there any pressure on him to compete for the league title with such a team?

Rudy. Gonzalez is not a traverser, so he naturally doesn't know what will happen next for the royal horse to shed tears. He saw that Chang Sheng was so persistent and determined, and he couldn't say anything more, he knew that he was in a hurry, and Chang Sheng would definitely come to the end with a sentence "This is the intuition of a man", although this reason will make him can't help but roll his eyes, but the problem is that the intuition of entering the house is really accurate!

So he could only be speechless.
