The El Clasico between Real Madrid and Barcelona has ended, leaving only the first leg match between Valencia and Santa Malaga in the quarterfinals.
On the morning of the 20th, Santa Malaga and his party took a plane to Valencia.
When Liag got off the plane, he asked for the contact information of the blond stewardess.
"Liage, we are here to play a game, not..."
Before Miguel finished speaking, Liag interrupted and said: "I am saving a lonely soul. Don't worry, I will never contact her before the competition."
He patted his chest and said solemnly: "In my heart, football always comes first, and love comes second!"
Everyone looked at him with disdain. You're kidding me. If you really put football first, you would be playing in a high-level league by now, and you might even be competing in La Liga.
"What are you looking at? Damn it, you don't believe me?!"
Liage felt sad and suddenly had the idea to change his mind and start a new life.
…
Walking out of the tunnel, a dozen reporters were already waiting there. Antonio asked the players to leave, and he endured the bombardment of reporters alone.
"Mr. Antonio, what is your goal in this game? Is it an away goal?"
"Mr. Antonio, has Li recovered? Can he start this game?"
"Mr. Antonio, will Santa Malaga still use defensive counterattack tactics in this game?"
"Mr. Antonio, it is said that a professional team has invited you to be the head coach. Is this news true?"
…
It was already Mr. Antonio. Antonio felt very comfortable. He waved his hand to stop the reporters' indiscriminate bombardment.
"Don't worry, I will answer your questions seriously."
As expected, the reporters stopped, and Antonio felt more comfortable. This was a sign of respect.
"Tonight's game will definitely be difficult and we are ready.
In terms of strength, there is definitely a big gap between us and Valencia, and we can accept it even if we lose tonight.
Regarding Li’s question…
He has now trained with the team, but he has not returned to his best condition, which is what I am worried about, so I still have to discuss with the team members whether he can start."
He wanted to talk to his assistants like a professional team coach, but he immediately remembered that he was the only coach in Santa Malaga...
A little embarrassing.
Antonio touched his nose, concealed his embarrassment and continued: "Because of the huge disparity in strength, we will definitely not play an offensive game against Valencia, that's for sure, and we are playing away from home tonight.
The news about a professional team inviting me to be the head coach is true. A C-level team has invited me, and I am still discussing it with my family."
Antonio was full of lies when answering reporters, and always put Santa Malaga in a weak position. This is not to reduce the war of words, but a fact.
A D-level team and a top league team are completely on two different levels, teams from two different worlds. If it weren't for the King's Cup, how could Valencia play against Santa Malaga.
…
In the afternoon, players from D-level teams from all over Spain gathered in Valencia by various means of transportation. They came to cheer for Santa Malaga.
"Daniel, you are here too..."
"It's coming! It's coming! Our whole team is here! We even brought our family members, so we can take a trip!"
"Isn't this Jon? Your next match is against Santa Malaga. Are you here to spy on the military situation today?"
"No! No! No! To spy on military intelligence, we are purely here to cheer them on!"
"I said Jon, when you play against Santa Malaga in the next game, your movements must be smaller. In particular, you must tell O'Day not to shovel at all times. What should I do if I injure the Santa Malaga players?
They will also play the second leg of the Copa del Rey next week.
You see, Li missed the last game due to injury, and if it weren't for Liag, Santa Malaga would have been eliminated!"
"Oh, I know, I will definitely tell O'Day not to tackle!"
"I think... you might as well not let O'Dea play and let him sit on the bench."
"Ah!... We will seriously consider your suggestion."
The miserable O'Day was really pushed to the bench by the coach when he played against Santa Malaga three days later and did not play for a minute. Even though he begged and swore not to tackle, he still failed...
At seven o'clock in the evening, tens of thousands of fans gathered outside the Mestalla Stadium, which is extremely rare in the history of Valencia's Copa del Rey.
The reporters were also very curious and hurriedly went to interview the fans.
"We are very curious about the Santa Malaga team. We want to see this team with our own eyes and see why they can eliminate so many professional teams until now!"
"I have never heard of a D-level team reaching the quarterfinals, so I wanted to see what makes them special."
"I came to see how Valencia brought Santa Malaga back to its original shape. Levante is Valencia's team, and we want to help them take revenge!"
This is the voice of Valencia fans.
"Of course we are coming! As long as Santa Malaga is alive in the Copa del Rey, we will follow them wherever they go!"
"Santa Malaga is now the flag of the D-level team, and they carry the hopes of us D-level teams! Of course we have to come to support them. Their success is our success!"
"Do you need a reason to support Santa Malaga? No! You don't need a reason! So we are here, and we want them to know that they are not fighting alone!"
"We are going to turn all the away games at Santa Malaga into home games, so we will come with everything we can!"
This is the voice of the supporters of Santa Malaga.
After interviewing the fans, the reporter said to the camera: "The Mestalla Stadium, which can accommodate nearly 50,000 people, may be full tonight. This is just a Copa del Rey match, and the opponent is not Real Madrid or Barcelona. This
It's hard to imagine.
Valencia fans came to the scene out of curiosity, because Santa Malaga is too mysterious to them, and a D-level team can actually reach the quarterfinals.
On the other hand, they have the desire to avenge Levante because Santa Malaga eliminated Levante in the last round.
As for the supporters of Santa Malaga...their composition is very complex. There are the staunchest supporters of Santa Malaga from Malaga, there are D-level team players from all over the country, and there are people from all over the country who like Santa Malaga.
fans.
These fans with complicated identities can come together tonight because Santa Malaga carries the hopes of all D-level teams. They will use their shouts tonight to let Santa Malaga play a wonderful game.
!
The game will start in an hour and a half, let's wait and see if Santa Malaga can continue to be magical!"
