In the 33rd round of the league, Getafe defeated Albacete 4:0 away from home.
However, as their direct competitors, Real Betis and Sevilla also won, so the point difference between the two sides has not changed.
Sevilla still ranks first with 75 points. Getafe ranks second with 73 points. Real Betis ranks third with 71 points.
However, the next round of the league will become very important and may become a turning point in this season.
It's just that the focus of this round of the league is not on Getafe. Getafe plays Elche at home, which is not a focus battle.
The game that everyone is paying attention to is Sevilla vs. Real Betis at home.
This is a battle between League One and League Three.
It's also a fight between a crane and a clam.
No matter what the final result is, it will be very beneficial to Getafe.
Getafe wins its own game first, and then looks at the result of the other game. If Sevilla loses, Getafe will become first in the league with a one-point advantage. If Real Betis loses, Getafe
It will widen the gap with third place in the league to five points. What if the two sides draw? It is still a good thing for Getafe. They will temporarily top the league standings with a goal difference.
Anyway, Getafe can sit back and watch the fight.

One week later, in the thirty-fourth round of the league, the fateful moment arrived.
The injured Mista and Senna returned in this game, and Getafe's main lineup is finally complete.
They first defeated Elche 3:1 at their home court and got three points.
Then turn on the movie viewing mode.
Sevilla and Real Betis locked horns at the Pizjuan Stadium.
It ended up being a 1:1 draw.
When the game ended, the commentator exclaimed: "Getafe has really returned to the first place in the league! After eight rounds of league games, they have returned to the first place in the league! Although it is only with a goal difference advantage...
…But if both Sevilla and Getafe win the next games, Getafe will also be the league champion, because they have an absolute advantage in the winning relationship with Sevilla! They have this season
Double beat Sevilla home and away!”
"It's incredible! When Getafe was in economic crisis and couldn't pay salaries for two months, who would have thought that they would have a chance to return to the top of the league? At that time, everyone just thought that they would fall out of the relegation circle.
Is it normal? When Chang Sheng made the 'Championship Agreement' at the press conference, many people still laughed at him for not overestimating his abilities. But now? The facts gave those who laughed at him a hard slap in the face.
!”
"I think the media must admit this, that is, Chang Sheng is a very high-level head coach. He can indeed lead Getafe, an originally unknown team, to win the championship... They have blacklisted Chang Sheng.
After such a long time, it’s time to give the other party a positive report... Chang Sheng may not care, but as the media, they have to do this. This is related to the things that the media itself flaunts..."
※※※
Sevilla and Real Betis drew in a draw, which made many Getafe fans cheer.
"Getafe Local Life" newspaper wrote an article claiming that this was God helping Getafe, because their opponents made mistakes one after another, giving them more hope.
To be honest, when Chang Sheng called for the championship and launched a general mobilization of war, some Getafe fans may not have supported Chang Sheng with a desperate mood - they believed that Getafe could no longer be promoted.
, let alone the league championship, but at the same time they have to support Chang Sheng, because Chang Sheng’s status and influence in the hearts of fans make fans willing to support him. And Chang Sheng is right, regardless of whether the team is
There is still hope. Fans like them must support them. If they don’t support them, wouldn’t the team die faster? So at first they came out to support the team. They didn’t have much utilitarianism. You must watch it.
As for victory, they just want to have a clear conscience, perform their duties, and do what they should do.
In fact, this is a feeling of knowing that the future is hopeless, but still pursuing it.
Although generous, it is also somewhat tragic.
The situation is different now.
Six rounds of the league passed. Everyone was surprised to find that the winning team actually fought its way out of the tens of thousands of troops! They broke through the fatal situation, reborn from the blood, and appeared in front of everyone!
Before they knew it, they had returned to the top of the league!
Getafe fans found that their support was no longer a meaningless "death with generosity", but was revitalized.
This kind of hopeful pursuit is completely different from the hopeless pursuit.
Promotion to the First Division and Second Division championships was something they could not even imagine before.
Getafe's outstanding performance this season once gave them the idea that they could pursue something that was out of reach.
Unexpectedly, the subsequent debt crisis and economic crisis suddenly brought them back to their original shape, and also pushed the mood of Getafe fans to the bottom.
They realized that their previous thoughts were all ridiculous illusions. Grassroots people like them dared to dream of being promoted to the First Division. There were all teams much stronger than them. That would be paradise... How could they
Is it possible to go?
So many people are discouraged, thinking that they just had a sweet dream. But fortunately, at least when they wake up, they still have the memory of the sweet dream. It’s not like they gained nothing.
Although the dream was so beautiful, the reality was so cold, cruel and boring, making them feel a little disappointed.
But at least it's better than having a nightmare and waking up to find that reality is worse than the nightmare, right?
Unexpectedly, when they got off the bed, stood up, walked to the window, and opened the window, they realized that this was not a dream!
This is reality!
It’s a real world!
And they are in this world, they really have a chance to go to the first division! They really have a chance to become the champion of the second division!
That kind of ecstasy is simply difficult to describe in words.

Chang Sheng suddenly found that he had become a hot potato.
Kate Gracie has already made four phone calls to herself. Each call told her that a media outlet wanted to interview her exclusively.
Chang Sheng was surprised: "When did I become so popular?"
In the past, except for the local media in Getafe who were keen to interview him during his winning streak, other places simply ignored him.
Especially the media in the Madrid area, such as "Marca" and "AS", while angrily criticizing Chang Sheng, it seems that Chang Sheng does not exist at all. There is not even an application for an exclusive interview.
Of course, this may be related to the bad relationship between Chang Sheng and them. They knew that even if they applied for an exclusive interview with Chang Sheng, they would be rejected 10% of the time, so they simply didn't apply.
But other media rarely conduct exclusive interviews with Chang Sheng.
In short, at that time, the media were only interested in making people black and victorious. But they were not interested in getting to know the people they were blackmailing face to face.
But things are different now.
Kate Gracie smiled and said: "It's very simple, because you led the team back to first place in the league, you made the media have to admit defeat. You didn't notice the positive things about you and Getafe in the media during this period.
Is there a lot more coverage?”
"I no longer care what they say."
"I still recommend that you accept these exclusive interviews. After all, accepting exclusive interviews can increase your visibility and popularity, which will help you attract more sponsors. If you want to make money, you must first be famous."
After selling all the stocks in the story, Chang Sheng is now no different from an ordinary person, and he is still an ordinary person who has been owed three months of salary.
So, he really needs money.
"Okay then, you choose. Choose two media outlets that usually say less bad things about me and agree. I don't want those people who usually scold me to ask questions in front of me." Chang Sheng said.
"no problem."
Five minutes after hanging up the phone, Kate Gracie called again.
"Is there anything you didn't finish last time, Kate?" Chang Sheng asked.
"No. It's another interview invitation...this time it's from Madrid TV's 'Celebrity Face to Face' program."
"TV station?"
Chang Sheng was stunned.
As a person who lives in the Madrid area, he knows Madrid TV.
There are a total of thirteen television stations in Spain, of which there are five national television stations, namely: National Television One (tve1) and Two (la2), Channel Three (antena3), Television Five (telecinco) and Ghana
TV station (canal+).
Only two national television stations are public television stations, while the other three are private and commercial television stations.
In addition, there are eight local television stations in Spain's 17 autonomous regions.
Madrid TV is one of them.
Madrid TV (telemadrid), as its name suggests, is a TV station dedicated to viewers in the Madrid region.
Getafe is located in the Madrid region and is naturally within the coverage of Madrid TV.
Spaniards like to watch TV very much. As early as 1994, a statistic said that 98% of Spaniards spent an average of four hours and five minutes in front of the TV every day. This record has not yet been reached.
Countries can break.
The attention of newspapers and the attention of TV stations are not the same concept. Being able to appear on a talk show like TV station means that Chang Sheng's popularity is higher than before.
Although it is only a regional TV station, it has no less influence than several national TV stations in the Madrid region.
Spain is a very strange country.
Although it is a unified multi-ethnic country in name, it is actually composed of many autonomous regions within the country. Most of these autonomous regions have a strong desire for independence and are very disdainful to the Castilians who represent Spanish orthodoxy.
The most famous representatives are the two ethnic groups Catalonia and Basque.
Catalonia is clamoring for independence every day, but Barcelona does not regard itself as a Spanish team.
The Basques are even more exaggerated. Spain's famous terrorist organization ETA comes from this tough family. Their demand is to break away from the conquest of Castile and escape from Spain.
Therefore, people in each region have a strong sense of identification with their own region, but they may not have so much patriotism for Spain as a whole.
Castilla people in the Madrid region are a little bit better. After all, it is the capital, and they always have a bit of a national unification mentality. In this way, local TV stations in Madrid are very popular here.
In the Madrid area, being invited to participate in the program by Madrid TV at least shows that Chang Sheng is now famous and can no longer be ignored intentionally in the entire Madrid area.
Chang Sheng doesn't watch much TV, especially boring variety shows and talk shows, but this doesn't mean that he doesn't know what "Celebrity Face to Face" is.
Of the two hosts, one is the experienced male host Francisco Jose Olivas Alba. He is the real host, and he shoulders the main task of communicating with the interview guests.
The beautiful host next to him does not have a fixed partner, and will be replaced every once in a while. It is a mascot, and its main function is to attract the attention of male TV viewers. Although they rarely ask questions during the show, they occasionally ask some
She is also very stupid, but she is the main reason why the show has high ratings.
There is no way, who would let people change their tricks and wear all kinds of revealing clothes that violate the moral standards every time they appear on the show, and then bow down and pose in the show?
After these beautiful hosts become famous enough in this program, they will go to other programs to be their own, and then after accumulating enough experience and fame, they will change jobs and leave Madrid TV. After all, for these girls, regional TV stations are far from national TV stations.
The audience is large.
"Celebrity Face to Face" is a popular column on Madrid TV, mainly because of the female host in it.
But the popularity is there.
Being able to get their invitation shows Chang Sheng's current reputation.
As Kate Gracie said, being famous is a good thing and means you can make more money.
So Chang Sheng agreed without hesitation - in addition, he also wanted to see how sexy the female host of "Celebrity Face to Face" was that the players and coaches in the team were obsessed with.
