"The game is over.. The first two rounds of La Liga are over. Extremadura, as the newly promoted team, actually achieved two consecutive victories. In the second round of La Liga, Extremadura even more
Zero away victory over Valencia."
At the end of the game, the commentator was very surprised. Although Valencia was in turmoil during that period due to Mijatovic's sudden departure. Roig resigned and the club's head coach changed, but Valencia
After Nieri came, he has gradually stabilized Valencia, and his results have steadily improved. Valencia is still very strong now.
At the beginning of this season, the media believed that Valencia was a team capable of competing for the championship. However, they did not expect that they would fall in the second round. Losing is not terrible, but losing to a newly promoted team is a bit embarrassing, and it is still in front of you.
The unexpected loss to Extremadura at home surprised all Valencia fans. The commentator didn't even know what to say.
"Congratulations, Chairman Crespi."
The game was lost, but Roig did not throw away, but congratulated Tuni Crespi. These people like to maintain their own style. As a famous family in Valencia for two hundred years, Roig's style is
I have been learning since I was a child. After congratulating Tuni Crespi, Roig nodded to Riester before turning around and leaving. The senior officials of Valencia who had not very good-looking expressions also followed Roy.
Leave together.
"Congratulations, Tuni."
Riester stood up and also congratulated Tuni Crespi. Tuni Crespi was also very excited now, but when he heard Riester's congratulations, he smiled and held Riester's hand, and said with a smile: "Riester
Special, I have to thank you."
"Both each other. You and I are mutually beneficial. We will have a long time to cooperate in the future."
The two congratulated each other before leaving the stadium, because both of them were in a good mood.
After the game, all the media believed that Extremadura was the dark horse. As a 38-year-old young coach, Benitez also began to appear in front of the media for the first time. Of course everyone did
I am paying attention to what kind of dark horse Extremadura will be. It is just a small dark horse that has just appeared, or it is a big dark horse that can be darkened to the end.
Extremadura's schedule this season is not very good. In the third round of La Liga, Extremadura met Barcelona away from home. This time Benitez failed to create the dark horse myth and was just transferred.
Barcelona's Cocu scored the goal with a long shot. In the end, Extremadura lost to Barcelona 0-1 away from home.
In the fourth round of the La Liga match, Extremadura Club returned to their home court and met Real Betis. The game was very boring. Betis’ Denilson, the club’s most valuable player and one who was touted by the media as being all-powerful, was there.
There was no performance in the game. He was obsessed with his own personal breakthrough on the wing. Unfortunately, the defense organized by Benitez was very effective. Denilson ran into the crowd of Extremadura again and again, without knowing it.
Cooperating with other players, the parallel import nature was undoubtedly revealed. In the end, it was a 1-1 home draw.
In the fifth round of La Liga, they met Real Madrid at home. Extremadura suffered a 1-5 defeat at home. Raul and Mijatovic both scored twice, plus Hierro's goal.
He defeated Extremadura, which has had an excellent defense this season, by five goals. In the first four games, Extremadura only conceded two goals, but in this game they conceded five goals.
This disastrous defeat made many media believe that Extremadura's true colors have been revealed. Many people believed that Extremadura's dark horse character has faded. However, in the sixth round of La Liga, Extremadura met away from home.
Arriving at Alaves, Alaves' performance in recent seasons has been very good. However, Extremadura relied on a free kick opportunity and Fan Zhiyi scored the only goal with a header. In the end, it was an away game.
Defeat Alaves with a score of zero.
Slowly, Benitez's defense got better and better. In the seventh round of La Liga, Extremadura met the Spaniard at home, and another free kick opportunity came from Luis García.
West Asia scored a goal. Once again, it was a 1-0 victory over the opponent.
After seven rounds of games, Extremadura actually had four wins, one draw and two losses, and its points reached 13 points. It was actually ranked fourth in La Liga. This surprised everyone.
.
However, Extremadura, which had won two consecutive games, was tied in the eighth round of La Liga. When they challenged Spain away from home, although Jankoler opened the scoring for Extremadura, he failed to win at the end of the game.
At that time, the Spaniard scored the equalizing goal. The three points obtained were gone, leaving only one point.
Although there is only one point, Extremadura still has 14 points after eight rounds of games, ranking fifth in La Liga. This is a very remarkable result. At the beginning of the season, Extremadura
Dura is still the favorite to be relegated. After the game, many people no longer think that it is a team that can avoid relegation.
The La Liga football world was shocked. But there were also a lot of criticisms, because Benitez defended solidly, and then used several counterattacks and set-piece tactics. Because he has good defensive ability, and Jan Koler is in the frontcourt.
The high points include Vicente's extraordinary ability and Luis Garcia's comprehensiveness. This is Extremadura transformed by Benitez.
In a technology-focused environment in Spain, Valencia has already caused a lot of headaches, and now Extremadura is playing like this. So many media exclaimed that Extremadura is a dark horse.
At the same time, he also criticized Benitez's style of play.
Lister could not let such an impression be fixed on the young Benitez. Therefore, Lister was going to visit a reporter from Spain's largest sports newspaper "Marca".
…………
"Jose, long time no see."
"Marca" is a very best-selling sports newspaper in Spain. The newspaper mainly reports football events, supplemented by other sports news. It has a wide range of information sources. It often publishes explosive and fake news at the first time, and is highly regarded by fans all over the world.
Attention. The headquarters is located in Madrid, the capital of Spain. This year marks the 60th anniversary of the establishment of "Marca".
What Riester came to find was a famous reporter from "Marca". He was already in his fifth year at "Marca". Although he was not the top reporter of "Marca", he was also a well-known reporter.
Ser. Felix. Because Boboski doesn’t like media interviews, Riester did not arrange any media interviews for him. But after all, Boboski’s performance is getting better and better. Deportivo La Coruna’s two
The results last year were also very good. So reporters who want to interview Boboski are still queuing up. Lister gets many applications from media reporters every day, hoping to report on Boboski.
But after discussing with Boboski, Riester quickly decided on a partner for cooperation. Currently, there are only two media outlets in Spain that can interview Boboski. One is the local media in La Coruña, and the other is "Atletico Madrid".
"Marca", and the only person who has the right to interview Bobosky alone is the reporter of "Marca", José Felix.
Because of this relationship, Lister and Jose Felix had a pretty good personal relationship. When Lister chose Felix, he was just an ordinary reporter. But he could only read and interview Boboski.
, Felix has already established his own status in "Marca".
"Lister, didn't we just meet a month ago? Come on, let me make you a cup of coffee. Don't feel bad about it. I can't compare to a big agent like you."
"It would be nice to drink some. I don't choose."
Lister and José Felix were mutually beneficial. Boboski was unwilling to be interviewed, but Lister had to create news for him. Because Lister needed reporters like Felix. And Felix came
"Marca" has only been running for five years, and he needs to surround himself with some stars to improve his status in the newspaper.
Although Boboski is low-key, his performance in Deportivo is obvious to all. As the only reporter who can interview Boboski alone, he released many exclusive news about Boboski. He also indirectly released it.
He began to improve his standing at Marca.
"What happened today? I used to come to you, but you have never come to me. And you just need to give me a call. Why do you want to give me exclusive news?"
After giving Riester a cup of coffee, Felix asked Riester.
"No, I'm not breaking news for you today, but I'm here to beg you."
"I don't dare take it seriously, so please stop telling jokes."
Felix shook his head. Now, as Boboski's performance becomes better and better, his status in La Liga football is getting higher and higher. Only reporters ask for List, and List does not ask for reporters.
More. And Felix has not reached a very high level yet. Overall, he is asking for Riester.
"Jose, I'm serious. You know Rafael Benitez, the current head coach of Extremadura Club, right?"
"Of course, this is a big dark horse. And I am familiar with Rafael. He has led the Real Madrid youth team in games and served as an assistant coach to Del Bosque. His results this season are good."
List nodded. After all, Benitez is also a product of Real Madrid. As the media closest to Real Madrid, "Marca" is familiar with coaches like Benitez.
"Jose, Rafael is my coach."
"oh?"
Felix really didn't know that today's football coaches are not as powerful as they were later, and they are not stars. There are still only a few agents behind the coaches.
"Jose, you also know that Rafael has done well recently. He is only thirty-eight years old and has such good results. Isn't it bad to be too harsh? Your Marca has always been a newspaper that upholds justice.
, young coaches like Rafael should be protected. How can I say that he is still a coach produced by Real Madrid, don’t you think so?”
Felix immediately understood what Rist meant. As for Rist's statement that "Marca" is a newspaper that upholds justice, even Felix himself felt blushing. Because although "Marca" is a well-known newspaper in Spain,
But who doesn't know that taking quotes out of context and fabricating news is a major feature of "Marca". Although it is not as vulgar as the "Sun" in England, it is also famous for being good at creating explosive scandals.
The important thing is that "Marca" has political factors behind it. As long as they have a bad relationship with them, they can do whatever it takes to criticize and ridicule them. Spanish newspapers have such factors. English newspapers are all about sales.
If they do not compromise, then Spanish newspapers will do whatever they can to support the political leanings behind them. Even football is no exception.
As for helping Riester brag about Benitez, this is not a big problem for Felix. As Real Madrid's official newspaper, "Marca" still has a lot of meaning as long as it links Benitez and Real Madrid.
It's a big gimmick. After all, Benitez is a real coach produced by Real Madrid.
"Liester, I understand what you mean. There is no problem."
"Thank you, Jose. I heard that Marca is very interested in the young star Vicente who is currently performing well."
"Of course, although he is not yet the main player of Extremadura, his performance is obvious to all. He is also a young talent in La Liga. In the future, when he becomes famous, it will be difficult to interview him. Of course our newspaper
I hope to have a good relationship with him before he becomes famous. Why, did you leave this news to me?"
List nodded and said with a smile: "Jose, half of Vicente's ownership is still in my hands. He is still young, and I hope not to over-praise him. I will not let him appear in front of the media frequently. And he
Being young, it is easy to say the wrong thing. If you can control the heat, then I will give you the exclusive rights to interview Vicente in the future."
"Haha, it's true! Lister, then I'll thank you in advance."
Felix was very happy and stood up and held Riester's hand. Vicente has only started twice this season and made four substitute appearances, but he has two assists in his limited playing time. And he is on the left
The breakthrough attracted a lot of media attention. Being able to get his exclusive coverage may not seem like much now, but Felix knows the benefits in the future will be countless.
"You help me, and I will help you."
Having the help of a big-name reporter is also of great benefit to List. After all, players and the media are absolutely impossible to separate. Players need reporters, and reporters cannot do without players.
The two of them were familiar with Bobosky's affairs, so they casually talked about some digressions. Jose Felix was also a busy man, so Lister left Felix's office. Of course, Felix also sent Lister to see him.
As soon as I walked out, I heard a voice next to me.
"Son, I'm so sorry. I'm a reporter, I can't be an agent." (To be continued.)
