Chapter 20: Can Gao Shen handle it?

On the morning of March 4th, Odalesa district.

Carlo got up early as always, and as usual, went downstairs and went straight out of the courtyard to pick up the morning newspaper from the mailbox outside.

What's different from usual is that there are not only the freshly released Aspen newspaper in the mailbox, but also two tickets that I don't know when they will be put in. It is the derby match between Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid at the Bernabeu Stadium tonight.

As early as a few months ago, tickets for this game were already hard to come by.

There was a note between the two tickets, with twisted Spanish on it.

"I hope you can come to watch the game, Gao."

In fact, even if Gao Shen did not sign his name, Carlo could still recognize his words at a glance, and the writing was really ugly.

Back in the house, sitting at the dining table, Carlo stared blankly at the two ball tickets.

Unknowingly, it has been four days since I stepped down from the Real Madrid coaching position.

"Who gave the ticket? Is it high?" The wife came out of the kitchen and asked with concern when she saw the ticket in Carlo's hand.

Carlo didn't say anything and nodded.

"Why didn't you invite him in?" Mrs. Carroll complained.

Carlo knew that his wife had always had a good impression of Gao Shen, but in fact, his dismissal from get out of class had nothing to do with Gao Shen. It was purely because the new chairman Martin was messing around, but he always had such a pimple in his heart.

It seems that right now, he is very contradictory.

Want to see it?

Sure, I really want to.

But do you want to see it?

He also refused very much, because four days ago, he was the head coach of Real Madrid, but now, he can only watch the game with the tickets sent by Gao Shen, which makes him uncomfortable no matter what he thinks.

"Why didn't I see anyone?" Mrs. Carroll looked out of the courtyard, but didn't see a tall figure, which was very strange.

"The tickets were probably delivered last night. We should rest. He didn't wake us up and put them in the mailbox." Carlo explained.

Mrs. Carroll saw her husband's thoughts, and came across to him and sat down. After a few minutes of silence, she couldn't help but ask, "Then are you going to see it tonight?"

Carlo was silent again.

He obviously didn't want to answer the question.

"He said it before that he really wants you to see it," said Mrs. Carroll.

Carlo regards Gao Shen as his student, so Gao Shen often visits their house. Mrs. Carlo has a very good impression of Gao Shen, and she really does not want to have trouble with Gao Shen because of this matter.

She has been with Carlo for 20 to 30 years. She understands her husband's character better than anyone else, and also knows his struggles at this moment.

Don't say it's Carlo, who has changed, isn't that the case?

After hesitating for a while, Carlo gently pushed the ticket in front of his wife, "I won't go, you want to see it, ask a friend to accompany you, and if you don't want to go, give it to the neighbors. Bar."

After speaking, Carlo opened today's newspaper.

Mrs. Carroll took a deep look at her husband, and without saying much, nodded and put away the tickets.

…

There is no accident. Today, the news in Aspen is all related to the derby game tonight.

Even as early as yesterday, the whole city was playing up this focus battle.

Many outsiders cannot understand Atletico Madrid's resentment towards Real Madrid. Only those who live in this city understand that it is a deep-rooted resentment that will only deepen with time.

Long before Atletico Madrid's relegation, their chairman Old Hill once said that Atletico Madrid's task is to do Real Madrid, and as long as they can win Real Madrid, they will be relegated.

Unexpectedly, Atletico Madrid was really relegated!

For Atletico Madrid, this was a disaster, completely shattering Atletico Madrid's dream of a strong team, but it only further fueled their resentment against Real Madrid.

Because, when Atletico Madrid was relegated to the Second Division and was struggling, Florentino became the president of Real Madrid, won the Champions League twice within three years, and continued to buy the world's biggest superstars, forming a star-studded galaxy. battleship.

Atletico Madrid is in the second division, looking up at the former mortal enemy. In La Liga, the Champions League, and even the world, they are shining brightly.

Psychological quality is almost, it must collapse on the spot, but unfortunately, Atletico Madrid is very tenacious.

The Sheet Legion returned to La Liga and stood in front of Real Madrid again.

Every time they faced Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid played without flinching, which led to a very dangerous game between both sides. Although it was said that there were 4-0 and 3-0 victories, the process was also quite dangerous, and more A head-to-head matchup.

Atletico Madrid has returned to La Liga so far. At the Bernabeu, Real Madrid has one win and two draws, while at the Calderon Stadium, Real Madrid has won four consecutive victories.

What does this represent?

Atletico Madrid is always fighting Real Madrid at the Bernabeu!

This one is no exception.

…

Atletico Madrid coach Murcia said in an interview with the media at the pre-match press conference that this is the best time for Atletico Madrid to defeat Real Madrid. They are confident that at the Bernabeu, Real Madrid will get to know Atletico again.

"Real Madrid is in civil unrest, which is sympathetic news, but as competitors, it is also a very good opportunity for us, and we hope to avenge Calderon's revenge at the Bernabeu."

At the Calderon Stadium, Real Madrid defeated Atletico Madrid 3-0. The process was very dangerous, but the score was a complete victory.

Murcia also mentioned Real Madrid's acting head coach, Gao Shen, who is only 25 years old. He thinks this is a very absurd decision, and it is also incomprehensible to him, because the average age of Real Madrid players is more than 25 years old. .

"They will pay for their absurdity!"

Not only the head coach Murcia, but the team's top scorer Fernando Torres is also gearing up, especially when he heard that Real Madrid did not include all Brazilian players in the squad, he was even more overjoyed.

"This is really an incomprehensible decision. I even have some doubts, is the acting coach of Real Madrid our spy in the Bernabeu?"

This is of course a joke, but Torres said that there are few Brazilian stars, and Real Madrid's strength is greatly affected, especially Ronaldo, Robinho, Baptista, Carlos and Cicinho, these five players can be All are Real Madrid's humerus generals.

Gao Shen won all of them at once, and Ramos was suspended, which undoubtedly made Real Madrid's formation even worse.

"It's going to be a tough game because it's at the Bernabeu," Torres said.

"But my teammates and I are ready. We are looking forward to harvesting a victory at the home of our rivals. I hope they don't disappoint us too much."

According to AS, Torres looks confident.

Also full of confidence is the Spanish international defender Pablo Ibanez. He believes that Real Madrid without Ronaldo is like a tiger without teeth, and it is not worth fearing at all.

"I know a lot of people will talk about the game at the Calderon Stadium, but I want to remind everyone that in the sixth minute, the referee sent off our left-back and I don't think it was a fair game. competition."

"We will prove our strength at the Bernabeu Stadium!"

Atletico Madrid's youth training player Antonio Lopez also mentioned the game in the seventh round, that is, he got a red card in the sixth minute, but he said that he did not encounter Raul at that time.

At that time, Raul received a pass from Ronaldo, entered the penalty area from the right rib, and was tripped by Antonio Lopez, but Atletico insisted that Lopez did not touch Raul, and the referee did not intend to pay at first. Cards, but then I didn't know what was going on, and suddenly decided to play cards against Lopez again.

Atletico Madrid believes that this is pressure from Real Madrid players, because they sent off Atletico Madrid players in six minutes, plus Ronaldo's penalty kick, allowing Real Madrid to win the game directly.

"At the Bernabeu, they have to pay the price!" Antonio Lopez said fiercely.

…

The confrontation between the two rivals in the same city has always been hot and fierce.

In Calderon, the two sides created a record of one red card and seven yellow cards, and everyone believes that at the Bernabeu Stadium, this data will not be too bad.

Carlo looked worriedly at the pre-match analysis in the newspaper, and he could clearly feel the ambition of the Atletico players.

Real Madrid has a problem and is internally divided, while Atletico Madrid wants to take the opportunity to get down.

They have such strength.

The question is, can Gao Shen stand it?

Tonight's Bernabeu, he not only has to face the challenge from the sworn enemy Atletico Madrid, but also the pressure from within the team, as well as the threat from the management, and even the opposition of 75,000 Real Madrid fans. .

He can be said to be a betrayal and a loner!

Thinking of this, Carlo turned to look at the note left by Gao Shen.

"I hope you can come to watch the game."

……

……

Match days are busy.

All the players who entered the competition roster came to Valdebebas on time and gathered at the time required by the profound.

Afterwards, Gao Shen started a tactical preparation meeting, focusing on discussing the team's formation running-in.

Focusing on the problems that have been repeatedly exposed in the training in the past two or three days, Gao Shen has repeatedly emphasized.

On the one hand, he regrets that the team had to rush into battle because there was not much time left for him to prepare.

But on the other hand, he was also happy because Woodgate was not injured.

God, this is really very good news.

So much so that when Gao Shen saw Woodgate in the conference room, UU reading www.uukanshu.com couldn't help but smile at him and said, "Jonathan, I'm so glad to see you here!"

What Gao Shen emphasized the most was actually the issue of position and defensive area.

In the past, Real Madrid adopted man-to-man defense, but now Gao Shen is going to adopt regional defense. These are two different defensive concepts.

Simply put, zone defense is an evolution of man-marking.

Whether Valencia or Liverpool proves how solid Benitez's defense is.

Of course, set-piece defense is a problem.

In the past few days, Gao Shen has repeatedly instilled this tactic into Real Madrid's players. How much they can play on the court is beyond the control of Gao Shen.

In the afternoon, Gao Shen made targeted tactical arrangements, emphasizing the suppression of Atletico Madrid's backline.

In addition to Pablo Ibanez's height of 1.92 meters, Pereira, Varasco and Antonio Lopez are all less than 1.8 meters tall. Negredo has a very big advantage in this regard and can take good care of them. use.

On the defensive end, Torres is the most important.

But as a double striker, Kežman also needs to pay attention.

Although this player did not perform well at Chelsea and did not perform much after coming to Atletico Madrid, he is a dangerous person after all and has to be guarded.

"Finally," Gao Shen stood in front of all the players and took a deep breath.

All of these 18 players were selected by himself, and the victory or defeat must be borne by him.

"I hope that each of you, when you walk into the Bernabeu Stadium tonight, can show your best performance and be worthy of this jersey on you!"

After speaking, Gao Shen looked at the people present deeply and deeply, and then turned to leave.
