After defeating Real Madrid, Gao Shen strictly abided by UEFA rules and attended the post-match press conference on time.
At the press conference, all his answers were serious and more cautious than usual. Especially when it came to topics involving Real Madrid and Mourinho, he was even more cautious, for fear that he would say the wrong thing.
This also makes many media reporters feel uncomfortable.
So they tried every possible means to get Gao Shen to talk about topics they were interested in.
For example, a reporter from Marca asked Gao Shen if he had heard the call for the Bernabeu Stadium?
Gao Shen said with a wry smile, "The noise was too loud and I didn't hear it clearly."
The Aspen reporter is an old acquaintance, and Crino and Gao Shen don't know if this was specially arranged.
He was a team reporter when Gao Shen was coaching Real Madrid and was very familiar with Real Madrid.
"Mr. Gao, do you still remember this press conference hall?"
Gao Shen looked around, nodded and said, "Remember."
"I still clearly remember that on March 1, 2006, you were sitting in the same position in this press conference room. You shouted the slogan of rectifying the Real Madrid locker room. No one is special. To this day
When I think about it, it’s still vivid in my mind.”
Gao Shen smiled bitterly to himself, is this really playing the emotional card?
Thinking of this, Gao Shen glanced at the press officer, who immediately interjected with understanding: "This is the post-game press conference about the game. Please don't mention any topics that have nothing to do with the game. Mr. Gao is very busy and his time is limited.
"
There was no other way, so everyone made some insinuations, but in the end they didn't ask anything.
Gao Shen was like a piece of iron, not giving any answers except for topics related to the game.
However, after announcing the end of the press conference, Gao Shen stood up and pointed at Crino with a wry smile, his expression threatening, while the latter had an innocent expression on his face, as if begging for mercy.
In fact, Gao Shen has an excellent relationship with the Spanish media, especially the pro-Real Madrid media.
This is why, over the past few years, many media have been advocating for him.
Sometimes, Gao Shen also understands that the media's campaign has also affected Real Madrid fans, but Mourinho's relationship with the media has become very tense, especially recently, when he directly blocked AS and Marca.
The reason is that both major media outlets are speaking for Casillas.
This is very embarrassing.
The whole world knows that Aspen and Marca are the mouthpieces of Real Madrid, just like Daily Sports and Mundo Deportivo have the same relationship with Barcelona. Now that their own mouthpieces have been blocked, how can they still play?
Gao Shen was helpless about this. He could only say that Lao Mu was too willful!
…
After returning to the UK from Spain, Manchester City ushered in the thirteenth round of the Premier League and headed to an away game to challenge Liverpool.
Benitez's team has indeed encountered big trouble this season. The main reason is that center Torres has declined rapidly after being injured. Now Liverpool is facing a serious striker crisis.
There is news that they originally wanted to bring in Newcastle's local center Andy Carroll, but Benitez didn't like the center very much, and Newcastle's asking price was indeed too expensive for Liverpool to afford.
Under such circumstances, the Red Army's current predicament cannot be solved.
But Liverpool's defense is still very tight.
Mascherano did not leave the team as he did in his previous life, but stayed to form a double midfielder with Biglia. This combination is very classic and is the current main double midfielder of the Argentine national team, with superior strength.
Coupled with the defense, Liverpool still held on to a draw after facing a wave of attacks from Manchester City at home. One to one, the two sides shook hands and settled for a draw.
Manchester City lost a set piece defensively in the first half, but Suarez recovered a goal in the second half.
…
Three days later, the knockout round of the League Cup quarter-finals.
Manchester City had just finished playing Liverpool and then headed south to London to challenge Arsenal away from home.
Arsenal had the advantage in physical fitness, and Manchester City had the advantage in strength. The two sides played equally well. In the end, Hazard's goal in the 83rd minute helped Manchester City win the Gunners.
One to zero, Manchester City won a small victory and advanced to the semi-finals.
It is worth mentioning that in another game, Leeds United faced Crystal Palace, who is also a British Championship team, at home.
In the English Championship, Leeds United is at the top of the list, while Crystal Palace is a relegation team. There is an obvious gap in strength. However, in the cup, Crystal Palace caused a lot of trouble for Leeds United in the away game and even scored a goal first.
ball.
In the 65th minute, Leeds United's defensive error gave Crystal Palace a chance, and Darren Ambrose scored the first goal.
Fortunately, just four minutes later, Bolasie assisted Benteke and scored a goal, successfully equalizing the score.
After that, the two sides fell into a bitter fight, and finally made a one-on-one draw.
But according to the rules of the League Cup knockout round, the two sides entered overtime.
In the 108th minute, Icardi, who came on as a substitute, received Benteke's header and cleverly seized the opportunity in the penalty area. He dunked the defender and then hit the goal with his kick, scoring the winner for Manchester City.
ball.
Leeds United narrowly eliminated Crystal Palace 2-1.
What's even more interesting is the subsequent drawing of lots.
The four teams that have reached the semi-finals of the League Cup include Manchester City and Leeds United, as well as Liverpool and Cardiff.
There are two Premier League teams and two English Championship teams. Interestingly, Manchester City is currently ranked first in the Premier League, Liverpool is fourth, Leeds United is ranked first in the English Championship, and Cardiff is fourth in the English Championship.
Originally, many good media were making noises. Should we let the Premier League leader play against the English Championship leader?
As a result, unfortunately, they guessed wrong.
Manchester City was drawn by Liverpool, and Leeds United was drawn by Cardiff.
The League Cup semi-final schedule is a two-leg home and away knockout round.
This also surprised many people.
Although the League Cup is regarded as useless, it is still a national event. There is a huge gap in strength between the Premier League and the Championship teams. The last time a Championship team reached the League Cup final was in the 1999/00 season.
.
Leicester City, who were still in the Premier League at the time, faced Tranmere Rovers, a second-tier team from the then-League League.
Since then, for eleven years, no second-division team has reached the finals.
And now, Leeds United and Cardiff meet in the semi-finals, which proves that one of these two teams will definitely reach the final. This will be the first time in more than ten years.
However, there are also conspiracy theories in the media that speculate that this is a deliberate arrangement by the Football Association to ensure that a British Championship team reaches the final.
Otherwise, how could it be such a coincidence that Manchester City met Liverpool and Leeds United met Cardiff?
…
After the League Cup semi-final draw, the Premier League ushered in the fourteenth round.
Manchester City plays Norwich at home.
This newly promoted team from the Premier League was very defensive at the Etihad Stadium, deploying a tactic of five defenders and three midfielders, but it only lasted 30 minutes. Then Suarez's goal completely broke Norwich's goal.
determination.
After changing sides in the second half, players such as Gareth Bale, Yaya Toure, Robin van Persie and Robben scored successively to help Manchester City beat Norwich 6-0 at home and win another hearty game.
A dripping victory.
…
Three days later, Manchester City still sat at home and ushered in its last competitor in the Champions League group stage.
After defeating Real Madrid 2-0 in the last round, Galacticos completely lost their qualification to qualify for the group stage, while Dortmund lost 2-3 away to Porto.
This means Porto still has a glimmer of hope.
Theoretically, as long as Porto beats Manchester City and Dortmund loses or draws with Real Madrid, Porto can advance.
This also caused Porto to play very hard at the Etihad Stadium and put crazy pressure on Manchester City.
But Sturridge's quick counterattack helped Van Persie score a goal.
After changing sides in the second half, Manchester City's defense made a mistake and Porto seized the opportunity. Hulk equalized the score for the Portuguese Super League team. After that, the two sides failed to score again.
One to one, both sides shook hands and made peace.
In another game, after Real Madrid lost the opportunity to advance, their enthusiasm waned, and they lost 1-4 to Dortmund in an away game, which caused an uproar in the entire European football world.
As the most expensive team in the world and packed with superstars, Galacticos was eliminated from the Champions League at the bottom of the group. This is simply a huge shame!
The Spanish media and fans criticized Mourinho and the Real Madrid players, believing that they were paid high salaries but failed to perform accordingly and showed no ambition.
After losing to Dortmund in an away game, Ronaldo said he was very disappointed with the team's performance.
"This is not the Real Madrid I expected!"
The Portuguese superstar's statement also triggered speculation in the media that he may choose to leave the team.
When Casillas was banned, Ramos acted as captain. After the disastrous defeat to Dortmund, the Real Madrid central defender no longer had any worries. In front of the media, he bombarded and criticized the team's poor performance this season, especially in the locker room.
.
"I now feel like we have returned to the days when we were falling apart. We lacked unity and cohesion. Everyone was thinking about their own little plans, and everyone was only looking out for themselves."
"Our downturn in those years has proven that only by relying on the whole and unity can we form combat effectiveness. No matter how many stars we have, we can't succeed if we work alone!"
Ramos also said, "Now, everyone should reflect on what they have done in the past period of time, including me, and whether we were right or not, we can now give the answer!"
AS and Marca also revealed that Real Madrid players had a falling out in the locker room after losing to Dortmund.
"Mourinho's roaring voice can be clearly heard even in the home team's locker room."
It's obvious that Real Madrid is completely out of control.
The voices calling for a coaching change are getting louder and louder. Everyone can clearly see that Mourinho is no longer able to control the Real Madrid locker room. Under such circumstances, if he does not change the coaching, what are he waiting for?
Especially considering that Ancelotti is still at home...
At this time, Chelsea fired Villas-Boas.
The reason is that Villas-Boas failed to lead the team to advance in the Champions League group stage and only finished third in the group.
Assistant coach Di Matteo will take over temporarily.
According to news revealed by the Daily Mail, Abramovich hopes Mourinho can return to Stamford Bridge and take over Chelsea.
The entire European football world is in complete chaos.
