Chapter 55: The Usefulness of the Game (I)

At the Alfonso Pérez Stadium, none of the more than 10,000 Getafe fans left, waiting for the results of the other two matches.

Constant victory is among them.

He was also a little excited about this scene.

After all, it was the first time he had experienced such a scene since he was a human in two lifetimes.

I've only seen similar scenes in sports news on TV before, but I didn't expect to be one of them now, and I'm still an important member.

When the final result came, Manuel Garcia was the first to hug him, followed by strength and conditioning coach Juan Zavala.

As for the others, they also found someone to carry them.

Everyone was cheering and celebrating. It's like early relegation.

In fact, this situation is not much different from early relegation.

The gap to the relegation zone has widened to four points, with two rounds left in the league.

As long as one more goal is won, then no matter what the results of the other teams are, Getafe will be relegated one round earlier!

For others, Getafe relegation is the ultimate goal.

But for Chang Sheng, Getafe's relegation is just the beginning.

Getafe are relegated, he can get an extra season on his contract, and he will also have transfer rights, and then he can finally go all over the world in search of the players he has been dreaming of for a long time.

Relegation is just a prologue of a game, and the prologue can't be passed, and this game can't be played at all.

Now he finally has the qualifications to continue playing the game.

The next day, the local media in Getafe reported on the incident.

Grolonis and Compostela lost one and the other were held to a draw, putting Getafe in a very favourable situation.

When Chang Sheng just coached the team, he didn't believe that he could lead the team to relegation, and at this time, he could only bow down in front of strong realistic results.

The various bars in Getafe are filled with praise from Getafe fans for their perennial wins.

For more than a month, because of the war between the media and Chang Sheng, Chang Sheng was promoted by the media as a heinous villain. Especially in the recent infighting, Chang Sheng has earned a not-so-nice nickname "tyrant" in the media.

The media almost didn't shout that Chang Sheng was a "dictator".

It also makes many fans who don't know the truth think that Chang Sheng is a villain with poor character.

But in the Getafe region, such a situation does not exist at all.

Although at first Getafe fans had similar thoughts.

When he fought the talented Gorka directly on his first day in the C team, many Getafe fans also thought so, thinking that Chang Sheng must not be a good bird.

But the subsequent victories proved that he had a good reason to do Gorka.

Since then, his coaching achievements in the youth team are obvious to all. Everyone has seen how the otherwise hopeless Getafe C team has made progress under his hands.

Eventually, he became the first team manager.

While some would doubt that he would be able to handle such a team, absolutely no one doubted his character.

The media's distortion and slander of Chang Sheng only made the Getafe fans scoff.

Now, Chang Sheng has also proved his ability in action, and the Getafe fans no longer have the slightest doubt, they have completely fallen to the side of Chang Sheng.

No matter how much the media hype up the hype within Getafe, even if the infighting is real, the Getafe fans don't think there's anything wrong with Chang Win. How can such a divided team be relegated? So Chang Sheng eliminated the players who didn't do well, and it turned out that he was right. Otherwise, will the team have a chance to survive relegation one round earlier?

That's really hard to say......

The 41st round of the league is the most important game of the season for Getafe.

They take on Cordoba away from home.

Córdoba is currently in 11th place with 54 points, and there is no possibility of relegation for a long time, and of course, promotion is not to be expected.

Cordoba is not a strong team, at least not in front of a morale-boosting Getafe.

During this week-long preparation, the constant wins have continued to boost the morale of the team, almost convincing them that they can win even against La Liga giants such as Atletico Madrid.

Then, with such high morale, the whole team set out and rushed to Córdoba, the capital of the province of Córdoba in southern Spain.

It is destined to be one of the most memorable games of the season for them.

Córdoba Airport is a small regional airport that can only accommodate small aircraft take-offs and landings, and Getafe's current financial constraints make it impossible for the whole team to fly away games.

Fortunately, the Madrid area is located in the middle of Spain, and the distance is about the same in either direction.

Closer to the place, the team took the bus.

A little further away is a train ride.

To get to Córdoba, you can take the train.

From Madrid to Córdoba, if you take the Spanish high-speed train AVE, it will take one hour and fifty minutes, which is very fast and convenient. There are shuttle buses from 8 a.m. to 10:30 p.m., a total of 19 buses, and there are many buses and a wide range of choices.

The day before the game, the winning team trained at the Las Margarita Sports City in Getafe, and after the afternoon training, the whole team took the bus to the Madrid train station and then the train to the away stadium.

Taking the train to the away side of the road, Chang Sheng was a little surprised when he first saw it, the phenomenon of European football is so developed, Spain as a place with a high level of European football, how to go to the away stadium has to take a plane. In fact, La Liga giants such as Real Madrid and Barcelona have also done the same.

But who thought that Getafe is the best silk in Spanish football at all, and the transportation costs of away games every season are also a lot of pressure on the team's finances.

Although there are many benefits to flying, such as saving time, such as reducing the fatigue value of the players during the journey.

But without money, no amount of benefits will be in vain.

After many trips to away games by train, it's no surprise that Chang Sheng has been victorious.

For him, taking the train to the away stadium is also a different style.

At the very least, you can see the beautiful scenery along the way.

Spain's high-speed rail is 250 kilometers per hour, which at this time there is no such fast train in China, at this time China's fastest train speed is only 120 kilometers per hour, most of the trains average only 60 or 70 kilometers per hour, green cars can still be seen everywhere. For example, in China ten years later, a car with a speed of 250 kilometers per hour can only be called a "bullet train", and a high-speed rail with a speed of 300 kilometers.

Chang Sheng in the previous life had taken a high-speed train because of a business trip and felt the sense of speed, but now he felt that the 250-kilometer Spanish high-speed rail AVE was really not fast enough. If they had hurried, they would have been able to reach their destination in a little more than an hour.

But for now, he can only find a way to pass the time on the train.

Nearly two hours have passed, and it has not passed in the blink of an eye.

And he also knows that if he wants to coach Getafe next season, he will probably have to rush to the away stadium like this. At first, he was unprepared, unprepared, and really spent two hours on the train in a daze.

And look at the other people, whether it is the staff or the players, either napping and sleeping, playing various handheld game consoles, or listening to music, and there are people playing cards and chatting. In short, there is something to do, and obviously they have long been used to it and have been prepared. It seems that Getafe's financial problems are not a matter of a year or two.

Getafe chartered a carriage full of Getafe players and staff.

The journey was long, and Chang Sheng was prepared, and he passed the time by playing games.

He went out of his way to buy a laptop.

There wasn't much else in it, and there was a Spanish version of the Championship Football Manager 99

00, which is cm99

00。

In his previous life, he was a veteran football manager gamer.

Starting with the "FIFA97 Football Manager" that he had access to at the beginning, he played every generation of the Football Manager game.

Later, after the championship football manager game (CM) was introduced to China, he and many other players who also liked football manager games moved to this soccer manager game with the most detailed and realistic information.

Since then, he has become a big fan of SI. Later, SI and Ubisoft parted ways, and he also switched to SI's FM camp.

There is no FM yet, CM99

00 is the latest version of the CM game.

In fact, he has just installed it, and he hasn't had time to play yet, so it's just right to pass the time on the go.

ps, I'm sorry everyone, it's really a last resort to take this chapter apart.

The word count of the public version is within 300,000 words, but because I just uploaded it during that time, it was too much and too fast, you can go and take a look, many of them are three times a day, and the number of words in my chapter is also more. That's why the word count is now exceeded.

In order not to exceed the standard too much, I had to make this decision, otherwise the editor would have come to me for tea.

The number of words in this chapter is more than 4,900 words, and the number of words in a single chapter is more, so I took it apart and sent it, divided into top and bottom, and I hope you will have a sea and a sea of Han.

I owe you a chapter, and I owe you two chapters after it's put on the shelves.

I still owe you one chapter on Monday, two chapters in total, and four chapters when the time comes. I'll remember it all, don't worry.

Once again, I beg your pardon......
