The next day, Real Madrid defeated Atletico Madrid 2:1 away from home and won the Madrid derby.
But for them, this does not help. The point gap between them and Valencia is still nine points - they lost to Osasuna away from home in the last round of the league.
The nine-point gap makes their league championship dream very slim.
But no one cares about them and their odds of winning the league.
Everyone only cares about one thing on this day.
That is whether Valencia passed the urine test in the game against Real Sociedad.
This matter has been the focus of everyone's attention in the past week.
Even UEFA is paying attention.
At eight o'clock in the evening, the Spanish Anti-Doping Committee announced the results of their urine tests on the entire Valencia team.
All Valencia players, whether they were playing or not, all had negative urine tests!
This shows that they have not taken any illegal drugs, and their victories and honors are genuine and can stand the test!
"We thank Valencia Club for their strong cooperation. Many teams are disgusted when they hear our name. Valencia has shown their aboveboard side. If all sports organizations cooperate like Valencia Club, we
Our work will be much easier to carry out, and there will be no room for doping in the sports world..."
The Anti-Doping Committee has been arguing for a long time, all of which is to promote their ideas and backlash.
Not to mention the Valencia team.
This attitude made the Valencia media very angry.
The Provincial Newspaper wrote an article the next day criticizing the arrogance of the Anti-Excitement Committee.
"In many places, anti-doping committees have the power of life and death, so they behave very arrogantly. This is particularly obvious in this case. Looking at their speeches at the press conference, they have no intention of doing anything for them during this period.
The negative impact caused by Valencia affects money! He didn’t even mean to apologize! They treated Valencia as a criminal suspect from the beginning, as if there must be something wrong with Valencia. But after the inspection results came out,
Why don't they apologize? This is because they are arrogant! They think they don't need to apologize to us, as if proving our innocence is already our favor... But I want to say, innocence is ours, no
I need you to prove it!”
Other Valencian media also expressed indignation that the Anti-Doping Committee could not insult Valencia like this, but they did not express anything.
Chang Sheng also spoke out: "I did not stay in front of the TV to watch the live news. I have no interest in this matter. Because I know that all my players are innocent. However, the approach and attitude of the Anti-Doping Committee
It's a lack of basic respect for us and I hope the Anti-Doping Committee apologizes for this! Because this is a bad start - in the future they can just suspect that you may be doping without any evidence.
Investigating you will cause serious damage to our reputation!"
Chang Sheng's words resonated with many people, and the media expressed their support.
Finally, under the pressure of public opinion, the Anti-Doping Committee had to hold another press conference to apologize to the Valencia club and team, and admitted that there were errors in their procedures and that their work was too much affected by the media...
…
As for this media, everyone knows who it is.
Now it's "Marca"'s turn to report.
Marca was the first media outlet to raise questions about the existence of a winning team.
Now since the winning team is innocent, they must also be responsible for what they have said.
The next day, Marca published a brief letter of apology prominently on its front page.
They admitted that their doubts were ill-considered and expressed them openly. As a mass media, they should be strict with their words and deeds. In terms of the damage and impact this incident has caused to the Valencia club and team, "Atletico Madrid"
Card” newspaper expressed its sincerest apologies.
Although the open letter of apology is very brief, it is still not easy for Spain's largest professional newspaper to apologize to Valencia and Changsheng on its front page.
"Marca" has only bowed to giants like Real Madrid and Barcelona before...
※※※
The unfounded doping scandal passed like this.
Everyone soon stopped discussing the matter.
Because there are things more worthy of attention than this kind of thing.
For example, the Champions League semi-finals are coming soon, with Chelsea vs. Porto and Valencia vs. Monaco.
Italy's "Gazzetta dello Sport" said sourly before that this is a shame for the Champions League, because all the best teams are eliminated and the four teams are losers. This does not fit the name of the Champions League at all.
"...Since UEFA transformed the Champions League into the Champions League, the excitement of the game has declined year by year. Too many non-championship teams entering this competition will only reduce the enjoyment of the game and reduce the importance of the game.
.If things go on like this, the Champions League will be abandoned by television broadcasters and sponsors..."
No one pays any attention to the distant barking of this negative dog.
Chang Sheng is busy preparing for the match against Monaco.
He said before the game that Monaco is a very strong opponent and it will be more difficult to play against them than against Real Madrid.
This sentence made the media in Madrid furious.
Can Monaco be compared with Real Madrid?
Before the game, Monaco's head coach Deschamps also gave friendly feedback. He said that he played for Valencia for one season before retiring, and Valencia left a profound impact on him. He contributed to Valencia's ability to play in regular games.
I am very happy to achieve such outstanding results under the leadership of Sheng.
There is really no smell of gunpowder at all...
This kind of competition between two good friends makes the media who are used to covering and reporting winning games very uncomfortable.
They are still waiting for a reversal. For example, the day before the game, the two sides suddenly have a sudden idea, throw out fierce materials, and start attacking each other.
As a result, I waited until the game started, but didn't wait...
The match between Valencia and Monaco at home just started, which made many media feel that something important was missing and they were not used to it.
※※※
Perhaps it is really because Monaco is not a strong team compared to AC Milan, so the Valencia players are not interested. After all, they have just experienced such an exciting game, and it is inevitable that they will be a little carried away.
Perhaps it was because the atmosphere between the two sides before the game was so good that the Valencia players were also affected.
Or maybe it's because Chang Sheng used a lot of rotation in this game, which led to the team's overall strength declining.
Anyway, this game was not exciting, and Valencia's performance was not very good either.
After a ninety-minute game, Valencia finally defeated Monaco 1:0 at home, leaving enough suspense for the second round.
Monaco saw hope of qualifying for the final by knocking out Valencia.
After the game, the media in Madrid gloated that Valencia had spent all their energy in the match with AC Milan. Now they were at the end of their game. In the second round two weeks later, Valencia, who had only a one-goal lead, was fierce.
A lot of luck!
"...In the final analysis, he is still too young to win often. In the last two rounds of the league, he has fought too fiercely. Especially in the game against Real Sociedad, he could actually replace the main player when he was leading by two goals in the first half.
Players, let them rest, slow down the pace of the game, and slowly deal with it until the end of the game. But he chose to continue to attack. Although he finally defeated Real Sociedad 6:0 at home, he lost the physical fitness and condition of the players.
This resulted in Valencia's overall sluggish performance in the Champions League midweek..."
"Although Valencia reversed AC Milan and created a great classic, they will also stop in the semi-finals. Is this worth it?"
In addition, Italy's "Gazzetta dello Sport" is also gloating about the misfortune.
They said they were not optimistic about Valencia going further in the Champions League. Their bold prediction was that Porto and Monaco would meet in the final.
Because the day before the Valencia game, Porto led by Mourinho had just defeated Chelsea led by Ranieri 3:1 at their home court.
After that game, there were rumors that Porto's young coach Mourinho would coach Chelsea after the season.
Because Abramovich admires his performance in this semi-final very much. At the same time, he is also the coach who led Porto to win the UEFA Cup championship. Abramovich believes that he can succeed at Chelsea.
Maybe Chang Sheng was not chosen because there were too many negative reports about Chang Sheng in the media. For Abramovich, who had never had any contact with Chang Sheng, he would naturally not be willing to work with someone who always goes against the club president.
The head coach dealt with...
※※※
It was only a small victory over Monaco at home, but this was not the way to advance to the finals.
But the game happened. Chang Sheng did not beat his players to pieces in the locker room. On the contrary, he announced that he would continue to take a day off, ignoring the weekend league games and they were going to challenge Athletic Bilbao away from home.
Although his decision caused controversy among the coaching staff, it was welcomed by the players.
The players are indeed too tired. Having a day off is a very happy thing for them.
Only Rudy Gonzalez seemed worried: "We are going to San Mamés on the weekend. You know that away game is not easy to play."
Chang Sheng nodded, then shrugged: "It doesn't matter, even if we lose to Athletic Bilbao in the away game, it will not pose any threat to our league championship. We are already nine points ahead of Real Madrid. And on the weekend
Our game is not easy to play, so is Real Madrid's game easy to play? You must know that they are a Spanish El Clasico!"
"Compared with Barcelona, I am more willing to believe in the state of Real Madrid. And Real Madrid is still home..."
Chang Sheng waved his hand: "Okay, okay, don't worry, it's no big deal."
The reason why he looked very confident in the weekend's league game was because he knew that the weekend's league game was the 34th round of the season.
Starting from this round of the league, the thirty-fourth round, the thirty-fifth round, the thirty-sixth round, the thirty-seventh round, until the thirty-eighth round, Real Madrid lost all!
Competing for the league championship with such a team, does he still need to feel any pressure?
Rudy Gonzalez is not a time traveler, so he naturally doesn’t know what will happen next when Real Madrid sheds tears. Seeing Chang Sheng being so persistent and determined, he can’t say anything else. He knows that it’s urgent, and Chang Sheng will definitely do it in the end. Say "This is a man's intuition". Although this reason will make him roll his eyes, the problem is that his intuition is really accurate!
So he can only be speechless. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!)
