Chang Sheng remembers it very clearly.

From the end of the 21st round of the league against Atletico Madrid until the end of the 28th round of the league against Murcia.

One month, two weeks and five days.

No more, no less, fifty days in total.

For the Getafe team in these fifty days, the locker room after each game was the most painful. Everyone was silent, the atmosphere was depressing and boring, and one defeat after another was worn away.

It destroyed the confidence that this team had finally built up before and also sapped the players' fighting spirit.

The economic crisis, hard work, successive injuries to key players, and of course the three-game suspension for the winning streak... eventually turned into continuous failures, and the continuous failures turned into a collapse of morale.

The last game has become a formality, a routine. In fact, there are only eleven walking corpses on the court.

Although the winning streak in these three games was suspended, he did not stop coming to the stadium because of the suspension like he did in the first half of the season, and watched the games in a hotel or dormitory room.

He was with the team from beginning to end during this three-game suspension. Even during games, he was sitting in the stands. He was the first to come to the locker room before and after every game.

He just wanted to use this gesture to show the players that he stood with them.

Chang Sheng looked at the players in the locker room who were bowing their heads and saying nothing. Even players like Carlos Campo, who was always full of fighting spirit, were now as wilted as eggplants beaten by frost. As you can imagine

.What is the atmosphere inside the team now?

But Chang Sheng is still full of fighting spirit and confidence and fighting.

But in the eyes of others, he is like a lunatic fighting a battle that is destined to be lost. It is pitiful and pitiful.

In order to make the players more motivated during the game, he even used his own money to support two players - they didn't even have money to eat at the time. Of course, Chang Sheng couldn't let the players train and compete hungry, so

Give them some money so they can eat.

But Chang Sheng is not a super rich man. He can help one or two people, but he cannot help the whole team. He cannot help the entire club.

At this time, he felt even more that his money was too little...

If he has a lot of money... so much money that he won't be able to spend it in several lifetimes, then what does it matter if he has to pay for it himself to ensure that the team can operate normally?

As long as the team can successfully upgrade and achieve its own tasks and goals, it is not impossible to pay for it out of your own pocket.

But now, even if he wanted to pay out of his own pocket, he couldn't come up with anything.

In fact, Chang Sheng never thought of having to pay for the problem out of his own pocket before, because he was not a liar.

But Getafe has fallen too fast during this period...

It was faster than he imagined. Since the debt crisis was exposed, they had only won one game in the league, and the other games were either draws or losses. They lost five games and drew one.

It's almost a straight dive.

※※※

The atmosphere in the locker room is a bit depressing. Chang Sheng always has to say something, otherwise it will become even more depressing.

Even if everyone has no confidence, he must still have confidence. This is his requirement for himself.

He began to comfort his players: "It doesn't matter, we are still in the third position in the league. This ranking is enough for us to upgrade. It's just a failure! Last season, we lost many more games than now! But in the end we

Still staying in the second division. Then this season, we can still achieve our original goal! Now, forget all about this game, don’t think about it, go back and have a good sleep, and wake up tomorrow with a new one

One day. Disband now!”

He slapped his hands and ended his speech. Then Chang Sheng suddenly found that there was someone missing in the locker room.

Assistant coach Rudy Gonzalez was next to him, but coach Manuel Garcia, who should also be next to him, was missing.

"Rudy. Have you met Manuel?"

Rudy Gonzalez looked confused: "No, I didn't see him."

"Did he go into the dressing room?"

Rudy Gonzalez shook his head: "I don't know..."

Chang Sheng frowned, and then realized that he should attend the post-match press conference.

Although he kept the reporters waiting for a long time, he knew that the reporters would not leave.

They were just waiting for this opportunity to ridicule themselves.

At the press conference before the game, he had already had a quarrel with the reporters.

Although the quarrels between the two parties are no longer news these days, this time the quarrel was particularly serious. Chang Sheng almost turned over the table. In the end, he angrily walked away, with the reporters gloating and mocking behind him.

So Chang Sheng knew that he would definitely not be able to escape the post-match press conference.

He gave up asking about the whereabouts of Manuel Garcia, packed up, got up and went out to attend the press conference.

※※※

Getafe's press officer Alberto Garcia has seen many conflicts between Chang Sheng and reporters during this period. In the past month and a half, Chang Sheng has continuously shown him how to deal with the reporters' questioning and ridicule.

, to correctly establish the image of the club, that is... never admit defeat!

But every time, Chang Sheng endured the media's anger and quarreled with each other. In the end, it was Chang Sheng himself who was hurt.

Alberto Garcia believes that Chang Sheng is a good person and he should not be treated like this, which is unfair.

The problems of the team and the club are not the responsibility of winning. In fact, he has done a good enough job.

Every day, when he sees Chang Winning, he is full of fighting spirit. He constantly tries to instill his fighting spirit and confidence in everyone around him.

But his luck was not good enough. After the team owed wages, the team suffered from widespread injuries... Sometimes Alberto Garcia would also think that if there were no injuries, maybe the winning streak would really be possible.

It can be done. Even if the Getafe club is in crisis, the Getafe team will continue to lead the league standings...

Unfortunately, there is no if in reality.

He is not a miracle doctor. He cannot help Getafe players no longer get injured, nor can he heal those injured players.

He can only do what he can to help the team and help win.

So this time when the visiting team's coach finished the press conference and left, he immediately announced that the press conference was over.

He doesn't want Chang Sheng to conflict with the media anymore. On the one hand, such a conflict is not good for Chang Sheng. The reporters have the right to speak. They can define a person however they want. Conflicts with the media

It would damage Chang Sheng's reputation. On the other hand, he didn't want to see the high-spirited Chang Sheng being wantonly ridiculed and humiliated by these reporters. They slapped Chang Sheng. They also slapped him, Alberto Garcia.

on the face.

Consistent winning has brought glory to Getafe, a little-known team, and has won people's attention, respect and praise.

He brought this team to life.

As an old man who has worked in the club for many years, Alberto Garcia has an ideological concept that everyone will be prosperous and everyone will lose.

The honor of always winning is his honor, and the face of always winning is his face.

That's why he took this approach to prevent Chang Sheng from being humiliated.

But how could reporters let him get his wish so easily?

When Alberto Garcia announced that the post-match press conference was over, they all started making noises.

"There is no such reason, Mr. Garcia! The post-match press conference does not end whenever you want! There is a set procedure!"

"If you insist on doing this, we will protest like the Football Association and we will complain to the Journalists Association. You can't hold a press conference if you want to, or if you don't want to!"

"Don't be ridiculous, Mr. Press Officer! You feel confident when you win, but feel guilty when you lose?"

While they were making noise, someone saw the side door being pushed open. Coach Manuel Garcia appeared at the door.

"I was entrusted by Chang to attend the press conference," he said.

Reporters are also familiar with coach Manuel Garcia. He attended all the press conferences in the first few rounds of the league this season.

But now reporters don't want to talk to him, because he is not the person they want to find at all.

Harvey Passos asked loudly: "Chang entrusted you to come here? Does Chang, that courageless coward, have the guts to scold others, but does not have the guts to be scolded? Let him come out! We have many questions to ask him!"

He is the vanguard of Hei Changsheng, and he finally found an opportunity to embarrass Chang Sheng openly. How could he let Manuel Garcia and Alberto Garcia fish in troubled waters and fool him? Today he

I have made up my mind and will not give up until Chang Sheng comes to power!

At the pre-match press conference of this game, the two sides had a heated exchange of words, which ended with Chang Sheng leaving the field angrily.

When he left, Harvey Passos was still chasing him and taunting him.

It seemed that Passos won this round of competition. However, Passos felt that it was not enough and he felt that he was not satisfied yet.

Now, after losing this game, Getafe has dropped to third place in the rankings. As long as it continues like this, it will definitely slip out of the promotion zone. Then we will see what Chang Sheng can do to argue with him!

Passos thought he had seized an excellent opportunity, and this time he had to make Chang Sheng completely bow to him before he would be willing to do so!

Manuel Garcia was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that the excuse he made casually would be seized by this opportunity and become a weapon to attack Chang Sheng... He was so ill-considered.

But he was already riding a tiger, so he naturally couldn't admit defeat.

"I often have other things to do, so I was entrusted to attend the post-match press conference..." As he said this, he walked to his seat and sat down in front of a lot of microphones.

"If you have any questions, you can ask me." He said and looked at the reporters below.

But no reporter asked him, they just laughed at him and Chang Sheng.
