Thanks to the concerted efforts of the entire apartment building, the party at night was a great success.
Everyone gathered in Christian Moura's apartment, talking and laughing.
Although he was not in a splendid high-end club or restaurant, he did not have expensive food and wine, and he was not accompanied by any sexy beauties wearing scantily clad clothes.
But Chang Sheng feels that this kind of party with a strong family atmosphere is warmer.
He was alone in Spain, working hard alone, carrying the dreams and expectations of two people on his shoulders, and the pressure was huge.
At the same time, he also has to face various discriminations and difficulties.
He has no close friends with whom he can share his inner secrets and anguish, and he is single, and he has no gentle and beautiful girlfriend to warm his bed and warm his heart.
If it goes on for a long time and the pressure is too great, he will feel homesick.
Sometimes. Sometimes, very briefly, he would think in his heart - it would be great if he didn't travel through time, even if he was still a loser... at least he wouldn't be so tired!
Of course, such thoughts are fleeting and will immediately make him wary.
In his view, this kind of "escapeism" is very undesirable before the goal is achieved.
Since you have chosen this path, you have to go to the end. If you want to succeed, of course it is not that easy. You need to pay a price, but if you are tired, it is good to take it.
If he wanted to be relaxed, it would be easy to go home and be a otaku loser, but he had already lived this kind of life for thirty years, would he have to go through it again?
Now that God has given him another chance, he has to change his way of life no matter what this time.
When he was under great pressure, having such a relaxing party could really relieve his mood.
Everyone who came to the party sent him congratulations and blessings.
There are really very few people in this apartment building who are not Getafe fans. Maybe these people also like other teams, but Getafe will always be their home team because they are local residents of Getafe.
They are very happy that the winning streak has brought the team victory and that they defeated Osasuna.
Last night's game was naturally the focus of everyone's discussion, and everyone was telling how they felt when they saw that game.
When the team fell behind by the first goal, many people held their heads because they felt that a defeat was coming again. When the team conceded the second goal, they were numb - this was the case in the previous seven league rounds.
Yes, no matter how the process goes, Getafe must lose in the end anyway. This time they were directly behind by two goals, at least it will not break their hearts.
Unexpectedly, when Carlos Campo was replaced from the winning team, the situation on the court suddenly changed!
Then they experienced an exciting three minutes!
When the score was equalized in just three minutes, many people couldn't believe their eyes.
As for the final victory... Old Grande raised his left hand wrapped in gauze and was showing off to everyone: "When I defeated Osasuna in Kaiku, I got so excited that I punched and broke the cup!"
I always win and smile for it.
He knew why there was today's party, why everyone was so happy, even if they were injured, it was a reason to show off.
Because his team won the ball.
If he had lost the game yesterday, would all of this still exist?
If he wants to see such happy smiling faces often, his team must win one game after another.
So no matter what, no matter how many other meanings and colors people give to football, such as politics, economy, culture, beliefs... there is only one thing that has always existed from the birth of football to its inception, the essential origin.
,Everlasting.
That is, victory.
Without winning or losing, there would be no modern football.
If students in British public schools just want to play football and don't care about winning or losing, then football may eventually become a performance event, dispensable, and it is absolutely impossible to become popular all over the world and become the world's most important sport.
The first movement.
Because competition is the life force of this sport.
When there is competition, there will naturally be winners and losers.
Who likes to lose?
Everyone wants to win.
Everyone involved pursues victory wholeheartedly. This is the true charm of football.
Chang Sheng believes that his pursuit is correct and he is on the right path.
He is willing to do anything to win.
What's the point of just being tired?

The party lasted until after one o'clock in the morning and everyone went back to their homes.
For Spaniards, this is the normal end time.
Their time is different from the rest of Europe.
Chang Sheng was very uncomfortable when he first crossed over. He ran to have lunch at 11:30 noon and found that all restaurants were closed, or they did not provide catering services when they were open. Later, he realized that lunch in Spain is always in the afternoon.
It's two o'clock. Eleven o'clock is equivalent to the morning for others, so we have a quick lunch...
Now that he has lived here for almost a year, he has gradually adapted to Spanish life.
Before leaving, the neighbors patted Chang Sheng on the shoulders one by one and had high hopes for him.
Finally, Lemon, drunkenly, approached Chang Sheng's ear and said to him, smelling of alcohol: "Chang, you must keep your word, you must successfully avoid relegation... Then we will drink another bottle!"
Chang Sheng nodded: "Okay, okay! I always keep my word!"
Lemon then let him go and moved his mouth farther away. Otherwise, from a certain angle, one would have thought Chang Sheng and Lemon were kissing...

When the team resumed training the next day, Chang Sheng met some of his colleagues from the club on his way from the apartment building to the training ground.
When these people saw him, they smiled at him and nodded in greeting.
Chang Sheng also smiled and nodded in response.
He seemed to have returned to the days when he led the youth team to defeat Gorka, and everyone treated him the same way.
It seems that in the football world, strength is the hard currency... Popularity is also gained through performance.
In addition to these colleagues, Chang Sheng also met some enthusiastic fans. They rushed outside Las Margarita Sports City early, waiting to go in for training. Generally speaking, if the team has no special requirements, the training will be
It is open to fans and media at all times. Unless there is a closed training session, it will only be open for fifteen minutes.
This is a tradition of European football clubs that is close to the people.
There are stands around some training grounds for fans to sit and watch. So fans take their whole families to have picnics around the training ground while watching the training, which has become a traditional entertainment activity for many fans.
There are two swimming pools outside Getafe's Sports City, as well as a large amount of green space. This is usually where Getafe locals like to have picnics. The green lawn is dotted with various parasols of various colors.
Most of these people come to watch the training.
Enrique Gonzalez was among these fans, but he was different from those who just gave Chang Sheng a thumbs up or applauded. When he saw Chang Sheng approaching, he rushed directly from the fans.
He came out and ran to Chang Sheng in one breath.
Then he was handed a jersey.
When the young fan rushed in front of him, Chang Sheng was a little surprised. He quickly understood what the fan was thinking, but he was even more stunned.
"I'm not Popovich..." he explained to the fan in Spanish.
Because the fan handed over a No. 10 jersey, and the owner of the jersey was Baladimir Popovich, who scored a goal and two assists in yesterday's game.
He thought the fan had recognized the wrong person... But what kind of look did it take to admit the mistake...
Unexpectedly, the fan shook his head and said: "No, I'm not looking for Popovich, I'm looking for you, Mr. Coach! I want you to sign it for me... but I only have this jersey on hand, so
...The club store doesn’t sell any coach-related merchandise.”
He actually came to ask for his autograph... Chang Sheng touched his chin. Could it be that he is more handsome today?
After working in the youth team for six months, he gradually brought results to a weak team, and no fans asked him for his autograph...
It seems that the first team is where a coach should fight.
Chang Sheng took the pen and jersey and was about to write when he heard the fan say: "Can you write 'For Kick'?"
Chang Sheng nodded: "No problem, is this your name?" Then he wrote on the ball: "To Kike, I hope you enjoy the victory. Chang Sheng."
"No, my name is Enrique Gonzalez, but everyone calls me Kick. This is my nickname!" Enrique took the jersey and saw what Chang Sheng wrote. To be honest, Chang Sheng's
The signature is not very good-looking, and the Spanish writing is just passable, which is far behind compared to those famous calligraphers.
But Enrique is still happy.
He also read out what Chang Sheng wrote.
"I like to enjoy winning!" he said excitedly. "The game the day before yesterday was very exciting! I watched it live, and we were all crazy in the end! Thank you, China Chang! I will also be there to give you the next game
Come on!"
Chang Sheng couldn't help but look at this fan a few more times. He was actually going to watch the game away from home... Chang Sheng had stayed in Spain for almost a year, and he also understood some of the "hidden rules" of Spanish football. He knew he was willing to go
There are not many fans watching away games, especially when Getafe's performance is so poor. It's hard to say whether the home court can be full, let alone the away game...
This is truly a loyal and die-hard fan.
Fortunately, I didn't disappoint him yesterday...
He could not imagine how those few Getafe fans in the most remote corner of the El Sadar Stadium, with the worst angle, survived the first seventy-five minutes.
Lemon said he cursed himself for seventy-five minutes.
Maybe these fans are like this.
After the fan left, Chang Sheng still felt a little incredible - he actually had a supporter himself!
Although in later generations, coaches like Mourinho have a large number of fans.
But today's world football is still dominated by stars, and most people like the stars, not the coach. As a coach, I am afraid that the impression given to people is more of a low-key behind-the-scenes staff.
They are indispensable when taking the blame and being scolded, but when they receive glory and glory, everyone will forget them.
So he was surprised that he had a fan, and his vanity began to flourish.
It seems that my choice to do this is a great and correct choice!
