Chapter 104 Revenge is the theme (seeking the moon on the penultimate day
Anyone familiar with La Liga will be well aware of the feud between Chang Sheng and Barcelona.
When Chang Sheng first became famous, he only had a grudge against the Madrid duo.
But later Laporta insisted on using Chang Sheng as a weapon when running for chairman, using Chang Sheng to give himself free publicity. This offended Chang Sheng, who publicly accused Laporta of being a
A liar and a villain who never believed in his word made Laporta so embarrassed. If it weren't for the fact that his opponent was no longer a threat, I'm afraid he wouldn't even have been elected president of the club that time.
Later, Laporta became the club's president, and the relationship between the two parties became even more tense.
Because Valencia, which has always won, defeated Barcelona 6:0 at home, setting a record for Barcelona's worst loss in more than half a century.
Since then, the feud between Chang Sheng and Barcelona has become deeper and deeper.
When the team was winning in La Liga, it was always suppressing Barcelona, which made Laporta, who was determined to revive Barcelona, very unhappy.
Fortunately, Chang Sheng finally got rid of that idiot Soler.
Then Barcelona's opportunity came.
At Rijkaard's request, Laporta began poaching people everywhere. Of course, Valencia, whose tactical style is very similar to Barcelona, naturally became Barcelona's key poaching team.
Soler is obviously happy to sell players in exchange for transfer fees and reduce the debt crisis.
But who would have thought that he almost demolished Valencia, which had always been victorious, and failed to alleviate Valencia's debt crisis. Instead, it made Valencia's debts more and more. It really makes people wonder whether he spent the money.
I spent it myself...
Deco went to Barcelona in his first season because he couldn't stand Soler. Winning for a long time was a blessing for him. He didn't want to stay in Valencia to see Soler's face. He took the initiative to ask for it.
Transfer. Then he went to Barcelona.
Then last summer, Ronaldinho left a disappointing Valencia for the same club...Barcelona.
Russell, the vice president of Barcelona Club, played an important role in this. He once worked for Nike in South America and has good relationships with many South American players and football people.
Both Deco and Ronaldinho ended up going to Barcelona for this reason.
With Valencia's championship-level central axis, Barcelona is even more powerful. Together with Eto'o, Xavi, Iniesta, Van Bommel and others, Barcelona finally won the league championship and the Champions League last season.
Especially the Champions League title. This is the second Champions League title in their club's history.
After winning the Champions League, the media began to call Rijkaard's Barcelona the Dream Team to express their achievements. You must know that Cruyff's Barcelona was the Dream Team and could be compared with this team.
, which shows the success of Rijkaard’s Barcelona.
So the Barcelona media shouted that the all-powerful and great Barcelona team was back.
Ever since they won the Champions League, these Catalan media began to look forward to the European Super Cup.
Because Lazio has already won the UEFA Cup, this is a perfect opportunity to teach Victory a lesson and take revenge on him.
The Catalan media firmly believes that today's Dream Team can completely defeat the ever-winner Lazio. This Barcelona is not the same Barcelona that was in turmoil and underestimated.
They have the confidence to beat any team in the world.
It's okay for them to think so, because those years in Barcelona were indeed the lowest point in the last ten years.
The entire team almost fell apart. It wasn't until Laporta came on stage that they gradually regained their strength.
Barcelona, which has restored its glory, the first thing that comes to mind is revenge.
When they were down and out, they suffered the humiliation and ridicule of being victorious. At that time, they had no strength and could only watch the victorious Valencia brutally abuse Barcelona again and again, even scoring a score of 6:0.
.
Now that they have the strength, how can they still suffer from the evil spirit of always winning? Of course they have to vent their anger!
As the European Super Cup is approaching, Catalan media have begun to hype the game and the concept of "revenge."
But some people still poured cold water on them.
The people who throw cold water are not the victors, but the people within themselves.
In an interview, Deco admitted that it was painful for him to face his reincarnated mentor again.
"Chang has had a great influence on me in my career. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't have become a member of the Brazilian national team and participated in the World Cup. To be honest, it was very painful for me to meet him again and become my opponent.
…”
Ronaldinho also expressed the same idea, but not as much.
He just said that he was grateful for the experience of playing in Valencia, and he believed that Chang Sheng was an excellent head coach.
His level is not as good as Deco's. After all, he only played for Chang Sheng for one year and his impressions were not that deep. Moreover, Chang Sheng directly changed the trajectory of Deco's life. Chang Sheng was a timely help for Deco.
For Ronaldinho it was the icing on the cake.
It is naturally better to provide help in times of need than to add icing on the cake.
※※※
Chang Sheng heard this through the media, and then he laughed.
"I thank Deco and Ronaldinho for their praise. It is the highest reward for me. But I still have to remind them that we are the enemy on the court. We must go all out to defeat the enemy, just like my team.
I will try my best to defeat them."
So what do Chang Sheng think about Barcelona's revenge?
"I'm not worried about this game. Lazio will play lightly, but Barcelona cannot, because there is a demon in their hearts. This demon is called... Chang Sheng." Chang Sheng pointed at himself when he said this. "
They always want to defeat me, which makes them fall into self-made demons. I am their stumbling block, so that they can never get rid of my shadow. The more they hate me, the more they are afraid of me, and the more they are afraid of me, the more they are afraid of me.
The more you can't defeat me. The more you can't defeat me, the less you can get out of the shadows."
Chang Sheng said with a relaxed expression.
The last sentence is the same as a tongue twister, but in the eyes of some people, Chang Sheng seems to be showing weakness.
Isn't it a sign of weakness to ask Barcelona to put down their hatred?
How could Barcelona let go of their hatred?
Even if they have Ronaldinho and Deco in the team, they will not let go of winning easily.
Now that Barcelona have just won the Champions League, they are full of confidence and full of morale. This is the best opportunity to overturn their winning streak. How could they miss it so easily?
※※※
Chang Sheng's answer was interpreted by some media as Chang Sheng taking the initiative to show weakness.
Chang Sheng laughed it off.
Whether he took the initiative to show weakness or not, you will know when the competition comes. Don't worry now.
Chang Sheng is very calm.
On August 25, Chang Sheng led Lazio to Monaco, and that night he appeared at the Champions League draw ceremony.
When he was walking on the red carpet outside, he was surrounded by reporters.
"Excuse me, Chang, how do you feel about returning to the Champions League?"
"Yes, yes, do you have anything to say?"
Chang Sheng turned to look at the camera lens, then smiled and said: "Tell them, Chang Sheng is back."
※※※
The result of the draw tonight was very dramatic for a person and a team.
Although Lazio has not participated in the Champions League for several seasons, last season, relying on the European points from winning the UEFA Cup, Lazio was placed in the second tier among all participating teams.
First draw the teams in the first tier, then draw the teams in the second tier.
When Lazio was drawn out, there was a burst of slight laughter in the venue. Many people simply turned their heads to watch Chang Sheng. Naturally, the TV cameras also focused on Chang Sheng.
Because Lazio was assigned to Group D.
Before that, the first-tier teams in Group D had just been drawn.
It’s from Valencia, Spain!
Everyone present knew about Chang Sheng’s grudges with Valencia.
No one could have imagined that they would meet so soon. It had only been two seasons since they left Valencia with a winning streak.
The reason why Valencia can still be classified as a first-tier team after missing the Champions League for a season is all thanks to the winning team.
If Valencia hadn't led Valencia to win the Champions League in the 2003-2004 season and earned enough European points, Valencia might have only been a second-tier team, which would naturally be out of reach of Lazio.
Together...
When he saw Lazio being drawn together with Valencia, Chang Sheng rolled his eyes in his heart. However, in front of the TV audience and the live audience, Chang Sheng had a completely opposite smile on his face.
He smiled.
He grinned.
The corners of his mouth almost reached his ears.
Obviously, he was happy with the result.
The host at the scene directly ridiculed Chang Sheng and Valencia: "This is really a dramatic scene! Chang had the opportunity to prove to Soler how wrong Soler's original decision was. And Soler?
Maybe he also wants to prove to Chang that Flores is no worse than him..."
The TV broadcast gave Chang Sheng and Flores a close-up shot each. Chang Sheng had a bright smile on his face, while Flores had an expressionless face.
In fact, Flores is not in a relaxed mood now.
As the head coach of Valencia, he has fully realized who is their true love among Valencia fans.
From the first day I joined this team, I have been living in the shadow of constant victory.
Soler gave him the transfer rights, but as a result, every transfer he made would be compared with the regular wins by the media and fans, which made Flores unhappy.
But what’s even more unpleasant is yet to come.
No matter whether he wins, loses, or doesn't win next time, he will be compared with Chang Sheng.
He lost ten games last season, and some people said that he only lost seven games in three consecutive winning seasons!
He led the team to a five-game winning streak, which should have been a happy thing, but some people said that five consecutive wins was a common occurrence for Valencia, which has always won. Some people even brought up specific data to convince Fernando.
Lores was not happy. They told Flores that in the process of coaching Valencia, there were only five consecutive victories seven times! In addition, there was a six-game winning streak, a seven-game winning streak, and an eight-game winning streak.
Winning streak.
Flores's Valencia exerted their strength in the second half of the league and went unbeaten for nine consecutive rounds. This made him even less painful - almost everyone was mentioning Chang Sheng's astonishing 65-match unbeaten streak.
record...
Flores is going crazy.
It took him a season to get used to living in the shadow of constant victory. Valencia regained the Champions League qualification after a season. He thought his performance was already outstanding.
The result was very lively. His team was assigned to a group with a winning team in the Champions League group stage draw...
Flores can almost imagine what it will be like in Valencia...
That is simply appalling!
