Chapter 210: Giving Up the Copa del Rey? It's a smoke bomb!

Regarding the quarter-finals of the Copa del Rey, Pellegrini consulted with his aides several times, but was never able to make a final decision.

The Chilean engineer finally brought in the team's core players to discuss a solution.

Where Pellegrini struggles is that the Champions League is about to begin, and Malaga will face a three-front battle.

With the depth of the bench in Málaga, it is basically impossible to fully bloom on three lines.

So he wanted to give up the Copa del Rey.

But aides believe that the Copa del Rey is more likely to be won in relative terms, and only a few games need to be played.

Joaquín was the first to say: "From the point of view of the difficulty of winning the championship, the Copa del Rey is indeed the smallest, but we think La Liga and the Champions League are more important!" ”

Saviola said: "Barcelona will definitely have to regain face, and instead of fighting them in the Copa del Rey, we should focus elsewhere. Moreover, Is Barcelona that good to win? We send the main force, and we will definitely win again next time? ”

Isco stated: "I don't think it matters, if you want the Copa del Rey, then play two games with them, if you can win them once, you can win them a second time, a third time!" ”

Everyone looked at him, Isco, you're inflated......

Li Chuanqi thought for a while and said: "I actually want to play in the Copa del Rey, since everyone thinks that we should focus on La Liga and the Champions League, let's give up the Copa del Rey." ”

Pellegrini breathed a sigh of relief, after the victory over Barcelona, except for Isco, who was stunned, everyone else was still very sober.

This is a good sign.

Manuel Pellegrini immediately communicated with the club's hierarchy, and the club's opinion quickly came to an end, agreeing to abandon the Copa del Rey.

How much money can you get even if you win the Copa del Rey?

With this energy, it is better to go the extra mile in the Champions League!

Malaga's biggest problem right now is the lack of money, a lot of money.

……

There are a lot of journalists coming to the training base in Málaga who want to get more information here.

Some reporters even set up cameras to film the training in Malaga.

It stands to reason that this is not allowed, but Pellegrini and the security guards at the training base ignored them.

The reporters found that Malaga was conducting regular training and did not conduct targeted training.

After the training, the journalists interviewed Manuel Pellegrini.

The Chilean engineer told the truth: "We just had a high-intensity match against Barcelona, and we can't afford to play two high-intensity games against Barcelona in just four days. ”

"So, we're ready to give up the Copa del Rey!"

The reporters looked at him in amazement.

Some reporters thought about it and thought it was possible for Malaga to do so.

But there are also many reporters who don't believe it, thinking that he is setting off smoke bombs.

What Pellegrini said was immediately broadcast by the media, and Barcelona coach Vilanova said in an interview with Barcelona TV: "I don't think he's telling the truth, we're going to prepare according to the plan. ”

Barcelona TV commented: "Manuel Pellegrini said that Malaga would abandon the Copa del Rey and focus on La Liga and the Champions League, but we think he is setting off smoke bombs and paralyzing Barca.

Villanova is sober, he doesn't think so, he's making elaborate preparations for revenge.

In the afternoon training, we found that Barcelona was adjusting their tactics and Messi was also making changes.

The defeat at the Rose Garden made Barcelona hold back their energy, and they want to take revenge on the Copa del Rey!

We spoke to a lot of fans who also thought Pellegrini was setting off smoke bombs and said they would come to Camp Nou to cheer for their team. ”

……

On the 17th, Malaga arrived in Barcelona at noon, and the Copa del Rey match was scheduled for the evening.

The reporters found that none of Málaga's main forces were missing, all of them came, and they were even more convinced that Pellegrini was setting off smoke bombs.

Half an hour before the game that night, the list of players for the match between the two sides was sent to reporters, and they turned out to be thinking too much about it, Pellegrini really wanted to give up the Copa del Rey.

Málaga's starting list, except for a few positions that are the main force, are substitutes in other positions!

Li Chuanqi and Joaquin didn't even make the list.

Let's take a look at Barcelona's starting list, all the main lineup!

A reporter from the Catalan regional media felt that Barcelona had the feeling of punching out and hitting cotton.

The reporter from Malaga laughed, Barcelona, if you want to take revenge, we will give you a chance to take revenge, are you comfortable?

The Barcelona fans in the stands looked at the starting lineup of Malaga on the field, Nima, what the hell is this?

They came tonight with the intention of helping the team get revenge.

As a result, that's how you guys treat us in Malaga?

At least you should struggle a bit......

Barcelona launched an attack on Malaga after the start of the game, and the shouts at the Camp Nou were not as loud as usual.

Li Chuanqi and Joaquin and other main players sat in the stands, watching their teammates being "ravaged" by Barcelona.

Not only did several people not feel sad, but they talked and laughed, pointing at the field.

There was no suspense in this game, Messi killed all sides in the game, venting the frustration of three days ago on the defense and goal of Malaga.

At the end of the first half, Messi completed his hat trick!

At halftime, Barcelona coach Vilanova adjusted the lineup and replaced Messi and other main players.

After the start of the second half, Barca's attack slowed down, and there was not much sense of accomplishment in beating this Málaga side.

Málaga's substitute line-up unexpectedly scored a goal towards the end of the game.

The score was finally settled at 3-1, and Barcelona took advantage of the home advantage to win the first leg.

Barcelona fans took their frustration out on Pellegrini, who, after the game, threw a huge boo at the Chilean engineer.

Manuel Pellegrini feels innocent, I told the media that Málaga would give up the Copa del Rey, but why don't you believe it?

After the game, Li Chuanqi thought that he had nothing to do with him, but he was "caught" by reporters in Malaga and must interview him.

Li Chuanqi can only be interviewed.

On why Malaga dropped the Copa del Rey, he said: "It's a team-wide decision and we think we should focus on La Liga and the Champions League. ”

The reporter asked: "A media reporter just said that the main reason why Malaga gave up the Copa del Rey was that Málaga felt that they couldn't beat Barcelona, so they simply sent a substitute to play, even if they lost, they could explain it to the fans and the media." ”

Li Chuanqi's blood surged up all of a sudden, and he forced to take a few deep breaths before he stabilized his mentality: "We just defeated Barcelona in La Liga three days ago, did the person who said this forget?"

Anyway, the mouth is on them, they can say whatever they want, I can't keep their mouth shut......"
