Valencia, who won the Copa del Rey, returned to Valencia early the next morning. From the moment they got off the plane, they were warmly welcomed by the Valencia fans.
The King's Cup is the least important among championships, but it is still the championship.
The last time they won the Copa del Rey was in 1999.
This is their seventh championship in club history.
For Valencia fans, they actually don't have much ambition.
Of course I want to win the league title, but it is also a great thing to reach the Champions League final. Likewise, winning the Copa del Rey is also a very important honor.
You must know that Valencia does not have many honors in total, although it is well-known.
They have only four league titles and only six Copa del Rey titles before that.
Spanish football is not like England and Italy, where polarization has been serious since ancient times.
Real Madrid and Barcelona are super giants. Real Madrid benefits from the support of the Madrid region, while Barcelona is backed by the wealthy Catalonia region. Teams in other regions are more or less affected by the economic conditions of their respective regions.
.
The economic base determines the superstructure.
A local team like Valencia can win so many championships and is already considered a strong team in Spanish football...
The entire Valencia team came out of the airport on a so-called double-decker open-top bus. Along the road were enthusiastic Valencia fans, who followed them in their cars.
When the bus entered the city, the streets along the way were already crowded with huge crowds of people.
Valencia fans kept cheering and singing the Valencia team anthem.
The Valencia players presented the trophies to the fans one by one.
Each of them received cheers from the fans.
The goal shouts the name of every player, whether they are those who have just joined the team or those who have been playing for the team for many years.
Mendieta received the loudest cheers when he held the trophy high to show it to the fans. After all, he is the captain of the team and the spiritual leader. Secondly, in yesterday's final, he performed well and scored twice, and is considered
The team's top contributor to winning the Copa del Rey.
Chang Sheng watched from the side as Mendieta interacted enthusiastically with the fans. He wondered whether such a King's Cup could change his mind and allow him to finally stay. After all, in his own tactics, Mendieta is such a weak player.
Players are still very useful.
If a King's Cup is not enough, there is also a league championship. That is the championship trophy that Valencia has been unable to win after 30 years of hard work.
He is already twenty-nine years old, which is the golden age for a professional player and the time to start a big career.
So he actually understands why Mendieta transferred to Lazio in the first place. Because he reached the Champions League finals for two consecutive years in Valencia, but fell short in both attempts. This is a good illustration of the bottleneck of Valencia's level. In this team
If the team continues to stay, he will not be able to get the honor he desires.
But it's different now. He has proven the team's future with the championship, which I believe is enough to impress Mendieta.
Mendieta is a system player. He can thrive in Valencia, but he may not perform as well if he goes to other teams.
In his own mad dog tactics, Mendieta, who is a free agent in the frontcourt, is an important player because of his excellent running ability and ability to control the rhythm by passing the ball, which can bring many changes to the team and is also the team's passing and possession tactics.
an important part of.

The team bus finally arrived at the Municipal Plaza, where the entire Valencia team was received by the mayor of Valencia.
The mayor of Valencia chatted with Chang Sheng for several minutes, expressing his gratitude to Chang Sheng.
Before the regular victory, although Valencia reached the Champions League finals for two consecutive years, they ended up with nothing, and last season they even lost their Champions League qualification.
Just one season after Chang Sheng came to the team, he brought such earth-shaking changes to the team. He was far ahead of his opponents in the league, and even beat Real Madrid in the Copa del Rey, winning the Copa del Rey and returning with great honors.
Then everyone came to the balcony of the city hall to celebrate the championship with the Valencia fans gathered in the square and gave speeches.
As the captain, Mendieta made a promise to everyone in advance on behalf of the team: "It won't be long before we come back here to celebrate the league championship!!"
His call was met with a roaring response from the fans in the audience.
They are fifteen points ahead of their opponents in the league. With such a result, it is not surprising that they are now celebrating the championship.
Chang Sheng did not go up to make any speech. He stood behind the players and beside him stood the club's general manager Pitachi.
"The renewal contract has been drawn up and all the requirements have been met. When will we sign?" Amid huge cheers, Pitach leaned into Chang Sheng's ear and asked.
With a smile on his face, Chang Sheng applauded and answered him: "Any time."
His heart was filled with a huge sense of accomplishment.
The champion is indeed a good thing!

From the evening of the game, the media began to cover the final intensively.
There are really too many things to watch in this final. Real Madrid failed at home, and Valencia turned into a mess as their head coach said. Valencia showed in the game
tactics, including the strange adjustment at the last moment, was it a premeditated new tactic or an accident? In the end, it was a war of words between Chang Sheng and the reporters.
These are all highlights, enough to keep the media hyped for several days.
The media in Valencia gloated about Real Madrid's embarrassment of losing even their underpants at their home stadium. They focused on describing the dark expression on Florentino Perez's face and the Real Madrid fans in their own home.
The home team saw the team crying bitterly after losing, and also used exaggerated techniques to depict the despair of Real Madrid's superstars in the final moments of the game...
As long as they can hit Real Madrid, they don't mind using any means.
The media in Madrid were filled with lamentations, with newspapers Marca and AS criticizing the team's performance in the game.
In fact, there is really nothing to criticize. Valencia's tactics completely restrained Real Madrid's tactics. Who would have thought that the real mad dog tactics would be so sharp? Who would have thought that Chang Sheng would try to play without a striker in the game? Who would have thought that Chang Sheng would try to play without a striker in the game? Who would have thought that Chang Sheng would try to play without a striker in the game?
Are you really shameless enough to use Tiki-taka to defend yourself?
Post-match statistics show that Valencia has a comprehensive advantage in all technical statistics, especially the ball possession rate, which is as high as 70%!
This kind of ball possession rate is basically achieved by using the reverse kick when controlling the defense.
Although it has no practical meaning, it looks good.
Say that Valencia has 70% possession of the ball and completely suppresses Real Madrid... How nice it sounds!
Florentino became the object of ridicule by the national media. Because before the game, he insisted on forcing the final to be held at the Bernabeu and moved it to March 6. The media criticized him for being overbearing.
But they could only talk about it. Unexpectedly, Chang Sheng helped them achieve this goal and dismantled Florentino in public, making it impossible for him to get off.
So the media opened fire on Florentino at will on this basis, scolding Florentino until he was disgraced.
Because of this matter, one can imagine Florentino’s secret attitude towards Chang Sheng...
For the Real Madrid team, the strength of the Copa del Rey final has increased their pressure sharply.
This year marks the 100th anniversary of the birth of Real Madrid. During this year, Real Madrid has prepared many grand celebrations. But these celebrations will seem a little tasteless if they are not decorated with championships.
The King's Cup championship has been robbed, and the league championship seems to be out of the question now.
There is only one Champions League champion left.
But winning the Champions League is definitely much more difficult than the Copa del Rey and the league.
Real Madrid can only put aside other thoughts now. No matter how difficult the Champions League is, it must win the Champions League in one victory and contribute to the club's centenary anniversary.
For this reason, they may give up the domestic league and just ask to stay in the top four of the league.
But this has nothing to do with Valencia, because the two teams will not meet again until the end of the season...
※※※
The media are also discussing whether Real Madrid regrets the success of the winning streak.
Real Madrid lost the King's Cup title to Valencia, led by Chang Sheng, at home, turning their centenary celebrations into a joke and farce. Logically speaking, they should regret it.
But this is not the case.
Florentino did not come forward, but some of his men came out to express their opinions.
"It is often said that Real Madrid will not regret it for anyone. We congratulate his team for winning the Copa del Rey, but Real Madrid will not regret it."
With such a simple sentence, people stopped talking about it, and the cool and noble style of the wealthy family was fully reflected.
He is indeed one of the top giants in international football. What does a King's Cup mean? We at Real Madrid haven't won the King's Cup in eight years, and it will be one more year. How can we care about the King's Cup, which is a useless thing?
What about? We are a giant with eight Champions Leagues!
Although the media in Madrid criticized Real Madrid's performance in the game, they also helped refute Chang Sheng's "regret theory", saying how could Real Madrid regret a person? Real Madrid has never done this in its 100-year history.
Things will never happen again!
Regarding the official response from the Real Madrid Club and the words of the Madrid media, Chang Sheng just laughed and did not make any public response.
It makes people feel that he is afraid, or realizes how impossible it is for him to make Real Madrid regret it.
But no one knows what Chang Sheng's true thoughts are in his heart.
He knows the development path of Real Madrid in the future, and he thinks that he still has a chance to make Real Madrid regret it, just in the Champions League! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to subscribe to (this site),
