Two hundred and fortieth chapters undercurrent (guarantee bottom)
The final structure of this game was 1:0. Valencia, playing away from home, won with Ronaldinho's goal.
In fact, after Ronaldinho scored, Valencia's advantage was not obvious.
In the last five minutes of the game, Barcelona even besieged Valencia's goal.
The one-goal lead was too small and gave Barcelona hope.
Fortunately, at the last moment, Valencia held on to win the game.
After the game, the media continued to cheer and applaud Ronaldinho.
"Ronaldinho has become a phenomenal player! This is only his second month in La Liga, and his performance is so outstanding!"
"Eindhoven was defeated by Ronaldinho alone, and the same was true for Rijkaard's Barcelona. Valencia did a good business in the new season. Now it seems that the three dollars they spent originally
Seventeen million euros is not expensive at all!”
"Another successful masterpiece by Chang Sheng in the transfer market! The Chinese always have a mysterious magic power in the transfer market, just like their acupuncture. Although I don't understand what it is, it gives people the feeling that it is
Very cool!"
After the game, the media was filled with praise for Ronaldinho.
Of course, Chang Sheng, as the head coach who introduced Ronaldinho, naturally received praise for his vision.
But Chang Sheng was not happy at all.
Because the better Ronaldinho's performance, the greater his worries.
Now Ronaldinho himself is showing a hint of ecstasy.
He has five goals and three assists in all competitions. He is tied with Villa as the top scorer in the team.
He seems to think that La Liga is just that, and if he continues playing like this, he can help Valencia succeed.

After the game against Barcelona, there is the Copa del Rey game, but there is nothing to do with Valencia. Valencia's Copa del Rey game will not be played until October 27th.
After the Copa del Rey comes the national team competition. As the 2004 European Cup approaches, national team competitions become more and more frequent. The national teams from all over Europe are fighting fiercely to compete for the final qualifying spot.
From the perspective of a club head coach, Chang Sheng really hates this kind of national team competition. Because it will increase the possibility of injuries to his players...
Sure enough, during this national team match, Baraja suffered a minor injury and needed to be out for two weeks.
Cambiaso also felt tired after playing for the Argentina national team. He had no choice but to let Tulalan take the top spot.
This is Tulalang's first start in the league.
On October 19, Valencia faced Espanyol at home.
The result was not a very strong opponent, but Valencia tied with Spain 0:0.
Considering that a large number of players participated in the national team competition, a large number of rotations were arranged. Almost all the main starting lineups were replaced.
As a result, Valencia was unable to win against Espanyol at home.
Chang Sheng now feels the impact of the national team competition on him more deeply.
In the previous two seasons, there were not many international players in his team, so every time the national team competed, it honestly had little impact on him.
So he didn't think the FIFA virus was that scary.
Now, he finally knows...
The FIFA virus is so scary!
On national team match days, the Patna Sports City was empty, and he could only bring a few substitute players to train with the B team.
There are twelve people participating in the national team competition, and there are also two long-term patients, Vicente and Aurelio. The first team of twenty-three people suddenly lost fourteen people, leaving only nine people.
Can't even connect basic tactics.
Then Chang Sheng will pay close attention to every national team game because he needs to know the status of the players and is also worried that they may be injured.
Even so, someone was still injured.
Chang Sheng was truly speechless.
He found it strange that in the previous two seasons, so many players were not injured at the beginning of the season.
Valencia's team doctor told him it was caused by training in the United States before the start of the season.
"After physical examination, we found that most of the players felt tired and their physical condition was not in optimal condition..."
Physical coach Dominic also gave a similar explanation. "Although I adjusted the physical training plan, the problem is that the training time in the United States is too fragmented. Today we are in New York, the day after tomorrow we are in Chicago, and then two days later we are again
When I arrived in Los Angeles... most of the time I was either on the plane or on the bus. For physical training, I could only seize the time to practice on the lawn of the hotel... There was no way to practice well. No matter how well planned, you can't train effectively.
It’s no use either.”
So in the final analysis, it turns out that it was caused by training in the United States.
Chang Sheng was helpless.
Next season, he decided to persuade the senior management to give up the idea of commercial competition no matter what.
If we go out every year, this team will collapse sooner or later.
In fact, there will be a living example this season.
In a time and space known for its winning streak, Real Madrid is full of superstars this season and has great ambitions to defend its league title.
Florentino is trying hard to prove to those around the world who question his mega-strategy that his superstar policy can not only bring great commercial success to the club, but can also win championships at the competitive level.
At the 31st round of the league, Real Madrid still led Benitez's Valencia by one point.
But at this time, Real Madrid's physical energy had been exhausted, coupled with the huge pressure created by Valencia, which eventually led to the collapse of the Galacticos.
In the 32nd round, they lost to Osasuna 0:3 at home and were overtaken by Valencia.
In the 33rd round, although they won the Madrid derby, Valencia was tied by Real Sociedad.
But in the thirty-fourth round, Real Madrid was defeated 2:1 at home by Barcelona with Ronaldinho, which completely collapsed them. From this game on, Real Madrid collapsed and their morale was devastated. Thirty-five
Lost to Deportivo La Coruna 0:2 away in the first round; lost 2:3 at home to Mallorca in the 36th round; lost 1:2 away to Murcia in the 37th round; suffered a 1:4 home defeat in the 38th round
Gave it to Real Sociedad.
In the 101-year history of Real Madrid, the club's first five-game losing streak was born.
They lost the league title by five points, Queiroz was sacked and Real Madrid was in complete ruin.
Later, when people summarized the success and failure of the Galacticos, they all believed that the crazy trip to Asia in 2003 was the root cause of Real Madrid's eventual collapse at the end of the season. Because Real Madrid were busy making money from catwalks, their minds were not on training at all, resulting in them not having much time. With a good reserve of physical fitness, the pre-season training camp did not play the role it should have at all.
Although Queiroz was known for being good at physical training when he was at Manchester United, in the end Real Madrid took his physical collapse as a signal and completely headed for destruction. It must be said that this is actually quite ironic.
Chang Sheng is very aware of this history, so he is also worried that the summer training in the United States will lead to serious consequences. Now it seems that the injuries to many players are already one of the consequences...
Fortunately, he has a physical training expert Dominic, otherwise his team would be even worse.
Real Madrid has been training for a week at the Hongta Base in Yunnan, China. This is a continuous training cycle.
And what about Valencia? Changing places for two days, changing places for three days... It is impossible to carry out systematic and coherent training.

On October 21st, the Champions League group stage day, Valencia defeated Monaco 1:0 at home.
This is the first match between Chang Sheng and the suddenly rising Monaco team.
In the Champions League, Valencia has two wins and one draw, ranking first in the group with seven points. Monaco ranks second in the group with six points.
It seems that Valencia is fulfilling the words of their head coach in the Champions League: "For us, any sign is a good sign."
Valencia is making great progress in the Champions League without losing a single defeat, but they are not so lucky in the league.
In the eighth round of the league, Valencia lost 1:2 away to Deportivo La Coruna.
Suffered first defeat of the season.
Ronaldinho's magic came to an end in this game. He played mediocrely in the game and did not help the team win the game. He did not score a goal or assist.
Valencia's only goal had nothing to do with him.
In the Copa del Rey in midweek, Ronaldinho did not play. Every player in Valencia could play the way they are most familiar with. They easily defeated Castil 3:0 away from home.
Returning to the league, Ronaldinho started again, and Valencia drew 2:2 at home with Celta Vigo.
Didn't win again.
Since the 1:0 victory over Barcelona in the league away game, Valencia has failed to win three consecutive rounds, and their league ranking has dropped from first place to fourth place.
Moreover, Albelda received a red card in the match against Celta Vigo and will be suspended for two games.
Valencia's start looked okay, but in fact there was an undercurrent.
Chang Sheng, the head coach of Valencia, knows very well that the future of this team is not as optimistic as some people think. If you are not careful, this big ship may hit the reef, or be sucked into the whirlpool and escape. Not coming out...
And what about Ronaldinho himself? He also fell into a downturn with no goals or assists in three consecutive games.
The media used to be full of praises for him, but now I can't see any of them.
The merciless media just avoided talking about Ronaldinho's sluggish performance, while the unkind media directly accused Ronaldinho of poor performance and being too complacent, which was the main culprit for Valencia's failure to win. The culprit.
Ronaldinho himself also felt pain and confusion - he felt that he was still playing football as before, with the same performance. Why could he help the team win before, but not now?
Just when he couldn't figure it out, he received a notice from the head coach that he wanted to interview him. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to register as a Piaotian Literature member to recommend this work. Your support is my greatest
