The biggest news in the second round of La Liga was not that Malaga defeated Mallorca at home, but that Real Madrid lost 1-2 away to Getafe.
In the first round, they drew 1-1 with Valencia at home. After two rounds, they failed to win a single game and were ranked third from the bottom in the standings.
This made Mourinho's life very difficult, and he once again vented his anger on the referees and the media.
So a war of words between Mourinho and the media started again.
…
After the game against Mallorca, Li Chuanqi felt a different atmosphere. In addition to the South American gang, many players would take the initiative to say hello to him and even chat with him enthusiastically.
He felt the word "respect", which was a strange and comfortable feeling.
He felt like a big family at Santa Malaga. Although his contribution to Santa Malaga became more and more as he grew older, his teammates did not treat him specially.
He is the youngest in this big family. Just like his sister at home, he is doted on by many people.
Of course, it is more about Pablo and Liag's strict requirements.
Pellegrini said at the post-match press conference that he was satisfied with the team's offense, and in fact he severely criticized the forward before training the next day.
"Did we have a good offense last night? What did you play last night? Each one of you is like an amateur player. When you get the ball, you only know how to do it alone!"
Li Chuanqi's eyelids twitched. Are you talking about me?
In the eyes of high-level league players, the D-League is an amateur league, and players who play in the D-League are amateur players.
I am the only one in the team who has played in the D-League, and most of the goals I scored last night were done alone, without cooperating with my teammates.
Pellegrini seemed to know that there was something wrong with his words. He immediately pointed at Fernandez and Portillo said: "You can pass several balls to each other to create murder, but what did you do?"
"Everyone thinks they are great! Is this playing football? Is this how football is played?"
Fernandez and Portillo were unconvinced.
Damn it, people who don’t know still think that we lost yesterday and still get criticized after winning?
What's the point?
Li scored three goals on his own last night, but you should be talking about him.
Fernandez muttered dissatisfied: "Li didn't cooperate with his teammates last night, why didn't you talk about him?"
When Pellegrini heard this, his eyebrows jumped wildly, he suppressed his emotions, and said in as calm a tone as possible: "He was in the same situation as you at that time? When he shot, there was no defense in front of him, why didn't he shoot?
Do I still need to pass the ball to you at that time?
Can he see you? You were in a better position than he was?"
The more he talked, the more angry he became. The Chilean asked: "After the successful breakthrough from the wing, he shot himself? Didn't he pass the ball to the center?"
Midfielder Duda raised his hand and said: "I shot that ball. Lee's pass was beautiful, but I failed to seize the opportunity."
Fernandez was quite depressed. He originally wanted to bring Li Chuanqi together to refute the coach, but it turned out like this...
Pellegrini knew why Fernandez did this. This was the conflict between the South American gang and the local gang.
I have a headache.
He knew that the conflict between them could only be resolved privately. The current atmosphere was not good and the two groups would even quarrel if they continued, so he changed the subject.
"The problem is clear, we will solve it in the next training!"
"Start training now!"
During the intra-team confrontation, Pellegrini kept yelling at players who didn't pass the ball.
…
Two consecutive victories not only failed to alleviate the conflicts between the two groups, but also tended to expand.
This made Pellegrini very angry.
In order to ease the conflict, he privately approached the South American gang and the local gang represented by Joaquin for heart-to-heart talks.
As for the effect, only God knows.
Li Chuanqi didn't care about these things. These things were not his thing to worry about. All he had to do was take advantage of Malaga's good environment and work hard to improve his abilities.
His principle of life is, I will not offend others unless they offend me, but I will offend them if they offend me!
As long as you don't mess with him, he won't take the initiative to cause trouble.
Train, go home, train, go home...
Li Chuanqi's life is very monotonous, even more monotonous than studying before.
The monotonous life makes him like training even more.
It's still hot in Malaga in September. Li Chuanqi is sweating profusely in the training ground and the strength training room, and his quality in all aspects is also improving.
On September 13th, Malaga and his team flew to Zaragoza, where their opponent in the third round was.
"You've never flown on a plane to play a game before."
Just after sitting down, Joaquin asked jokingly.
Li Chuanqi replied with a smile: "The team has no money, so we can only take trains to play games. Since entering the fourth round of the King's Cup, we got a sponsorship and started flying to play games."
Joaquin sighed: "It's amazing, that's a feat. Who would have thought that a D-level team could win the King's Cup.
amazing!"
Li Chuanqi is a humble person and is unwilling to talk too much about his past achievements.
"We are fighting on three fronts this season. Has the team formulated a strategy?"
Joaquin is the boss of the team and must be well-informed.
"I have heard that the focus is on the league first, followed by the Copa del Rey. As for the Champions League... we can go as far as we can."
Normally, this strategy is rational. After all, Malaga is not Real Madrid. A giant like Barcelona can definitely dream of winning the championship in these three competitions.
But Li Chuanqi doesn't think so. He has already won the Copa del Rey and is working hard in the league. The Champions League is the most valuable professional competition in world football today.
He wants to make a difference in the Champions League.
"I think we can make a breakthrough in the Champions League and even compete for the championship."
Joaquin laughed, young people are indeed young people, they dare to think about anything.
He smiled and said: "The Champions League, as a professional player, of course you want to win it, but you have to have the ability."
Li Chuanqi retorted: "When Porto won the Champions League, they did not have absolute strength.
Who would have thought that they would win the Champions League that season!
So what matters is not your strength, but whether you have that idea."
Joaquin didn't know how to answer for a while.
Is what Li Chuanqi said wrong?
That's right.
The reason why football has become the number one sport in the world is because no one knows what the result will be until the end of the game.
Strength is important, but tactics, players' on-the-spot status, etc. are also important factors that affect the results.
At this moment, there was a sound not far from the row in front of them.
"Bah!..."
"What’s wrong with you?"
"Throat discomfort!"
"Why does your throat feel uncomfortable?"
"I was stimulated by the heroic words and grand plans..."
Joaquin's face changed, damn the South American Gang, damn Itura!
"Ignore them!"
Joaquin was afraid that Li Chuanqi would explode.
Li Chuanqi said calmly: "The sparrow knows the ambition of the swan! Flies and mosquitoes only make annoying noises!"
