It's February.

The Korean and Japanese World Cup is coming soon. In order to squeeze out more time for the national team to prepare, the schedule of the La Liga is very tight.

Even during the national team match day in February, the league will continue to be the same.

Because of this, after February, before the national football associations announced the national team roster, each team also showed its magical powers, tried every means to use relationships to grab people, and even asked players to commit fraud and stay in the team.

Players are often in a dilemma between the interests of the club and the national honors.

Atletico Madrid has little problem in this regard, there are not many international players, and they are not the core main players, so Gao Han is more worry-free.

In the 23rd round of the league, Atletico Madrid took the home court and easily defeated Valladolid 2-0 with Villa's double score.

After Boske's team fought against Athletic Bilbao, their condition had obviously fluctuated. They were reversed by Espanyol one-two away, and the situation was very similar to the first leg against Athletic Bilbao.

Raul scored a great start in the first minute for Real Madrid.

But after the start, the Galaxy Battleship wanted to eat the opponent in one bite, but it failed. Instead, in the 33rd minute, Espanyol seized a chance, counterattacked and equalized the score.

After the start of the second half, Real Madrid's players had a significantly worse mentality. Not only did they fail to open up the situation, but instead they were frequently seized by Espanyol.

Finally, in the 74th minute, Tamudo's final goal at a critical moment scored three points for Espanyol.

Because this game was held at the same time as Atletico Madrid, Gao Han was unable to watch the live broadcast, but he watched the game video as soon as possible after the game and asked Sergio Garcia to conduct in-depth analysis.

Not only this game, but also all the games of Real Madrid this season.

He firmly believed that it was definitely not accidental to be reversed several consecutive games.

Scandals in professional football come quickly and disperse quickly.

Barcelona, ​​which finally got out of the scandal, finally ushered in an outbreak, slaughtering Tenerife 6-0 away games, which also helped Lexac's team win some popularity.

Three days later, in the 24th round of the league, Atletico Madrid defeated Las Palmas 1-0 with Kiko's winning goal away, and continued to firmly defend his leading position.

But Real Madrid never got out of the trough, with Bosque's team losing to Valladolid 1-2 away.

It is worth noting that the two goals conceded by the Galaxy Battleships occurred sixty minutes later in the second half.

The only goal came from Morientes, and the goal time was 72 minutes.

Barcelona, ​​who won the last time, continued to win this round, defeating Real Sociedad 2-0.

With two consecutive victories, the media in Catalonia all hyped up Barcelona's recent situation as if they were stimulants.

But no one expected that three days later, in the 25th round of the league, Barcelona tied Real Mallorca with zero-to-zero away games.

Yes, it's a tie.

If Real Mallorca had not been too poor in seizing opportunities and Etoo and Luke had missed too many scoring opportunities, Real Mallorca could have played Barcelona in three to zero.

But Aragones continued to support Etoo after the game as always. He firmly believed that Cameroonian Cheetahs would be able to adjust, complete their transformation, and become a top striker.

Real Madrid, which lost two consecutive games, finally got a good start in this round, defeating Las Palmas seven to zero at home. Main center Morientes scored four goals in a single game, and his condition was in a frighteningly hot.

Atletico Madrid is at home and welcomes Athletic Bilbao.

After ninety minutes of fierce fighting, Atletico Madrid finally narrowly defeated Athletic Bilbao 2-1.

But after the game, Athletic Bilbao head coach Heinx walked into the VIP box at Calderon Stadium.

…………

…………

“Pingus Winery?”

Heinx put down the goblet that had been drunk in his hand, reached out to take a bottle of red wine placed on the table, and recognized the blue round wine label on the bottle at a glance.

"You are so willing to let it go!" The gray-haired German looked at Gao Han and laughed.

After drinking, Heinx's old face turned red like the wine in front of him.

"I don't have the habit of drinking, so I keep it in the office." Gao Han said indifferently.

Heinx nodded, "If this bottle of wine is outside, it will cost at least five or six hundred euros."

"So expensive?" Gao Han was a little surprised.

"Well, it was hailed as the best year for Pingus winery in 1995, but in 1997 a shipwreck occurred and the price soared after that, and it's hard to buy it now."

Gao Han doesn’t drink much, so he doesn’t study much, so he’s a little unaware of it after listening to it.

"It seems that you are a good wine person, too." Gao Han smiled and poured another glass of Heinx.

Heinx didn't deny it, "Drinking some of it every night, you know, as head coaches, we have to keep our heads clear at all times."

After a pause, the famous German coach smiled again, "When I go back, I will send you a box of it for you to try. The red wine in northern Spain is also quite good, not inferior to French red wine at all."

"Okay, but I'm afraid I'm a cow chewing peonies and wasting my resources."

With red wine as the entry point, the relationship between the two has also been much closer, and they started chatting without a word.

They are all head coaches, and the topic is pulled back to football in just a few sentences.

"To be honest, your Atletico Madrid is really enviable." Heinx said in a sincere tone.

"Thank you." This is a great honor for Gao Han.

"I also admire your management at Athletic Bilbao. You know, it is too difficult for outsiders to manage such a special team."

Heinx was not polite, nodding proudly and laughed: "Those guys are probably annoyed by me, because I always tell them stories about my career as a player to them. I guess they are tired of it."

Gao Han laughed loudly when he heard this.

"But it is not possible to remind and beat them at all times. The particularity of professional football has led to the technical and tactical ability of a team, but the mental outlook is also the key. You must always maintain the desire for victory in order to maintain the continuous progress of the team."

"Professional football is like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat." Gao Han also said quite agreeably.

It's like in the standings, it's basically impossible for any team to maintain a ranking.

Either you get points and your rankings are up, or you lose and your rankings are down, and it is difficult to maintain a ranking for a long time.

"The main reason why I was able to quickly establish my prestige at Athletic Bilbao was that I had a clear communication with the management. I told them before taking over the team that the principles I believed in since coaching, if the club is not satisfied with my results, they can fire me at any time."

"But as long as I am still the team's head coach, I will never allow anyone to control my work. Even in Real Madrid, the club president cannot do it. This is the principle."

Heinx's resonance with Gao Han.

If a head coach can be easily influenced by others, where can he get his prestige?

How could a player respect such a head coach?

"What about you? Your management at Atletico Madrid is also quite good. What's the secret?" Heinx changed the subject.

Gao Han smiled modestly, "I am about the same as you, but because of my age, I am more familiar with the players. I think there are so many places worth learning from them, so I often communicate with them and understand them more."

Heinx nodded, "I am not as good as you in this."

Gao Han was a little surprised after hearing this. He didn't expect that this German coach, who has always been known for his stubbornness and sternness, would admit this in person. Isn't this a bit messy?

"This kind of management thinking, and the football you promote at Atletico Madrid, reminds me of someone."

"Who?" Gao Han asked curiously.

"The head coach I respect most when playing football is Weisweiler."

Gao Han had no impression of this name in his mind, so he could only remain silent.

"You don't know, it's not surprising that he was the head coach of decades ago. He coached Borussia Mönchengladbach in the 1960s and 1970s. I also played for the team at that time. He created a delicate and very ornamental offensive football for Borussia Mönchengladbach, which completely changed my concept of football. Therefore, my coaching also aims to him as my goal."

Gao Han was a little surprised, with delicate playing style and ornamental offensive football?

Old man, are you sure this is your goal?

But no matter how you look at it, there is no team that meets these two major labels, right?

Even Real Madrid, who was brought to the Champions League championship by him back then.

You know, the reason why Heinx was still dismissed after winning the Champions League at Real Madrid was that his style of play was not likable.

Heinx seemed to notice Gao Han's strange face, and smiled, "What? Do you think it doesn't look like me?"

"Yes." Gao Han was honest and not afraid of admitting it.

The old coach smiled bitterly and sighed, "This is the contradiction between ideals and reality."

Gao Han looked at the old German man deeply, and a strange color flashed across his eyes. He looked at the German coach in front of him with his golden eyes, and found that it was really true.

Unexpectedly, under the stubborn and conservative surface, Heinx actually hid the heart of an offensive football.

This discovery made Gao Han feel a little amused.

Zhenzhen responds to one sentence: You can’t just look at the surface when looking at people.

"You have now formed a stable tactical framework that can destroy the opponent's offensive organization through pressing in the midfield and frontcourt and reduce the team's defensive pressure, but this should not be your goal yet, right?"

Facing Heinx's temptation, Gao Han smiled and said nothing.

"If I'm not mistaken, the next step is to improve the efficiency of offense and defense conversions as much as possible, so that the team can launch the most threatening counterattack in the shortest time after intercepting the ball. Is that right?"

Gao Han was only considering looking at each other with admiration at this time.

Heinx has been able to stay in professional football in Europe for so many years, from Germany to Spain, and even led Real Madrid to the Champions League. He is indeed a very capable and capable coach.

This is the third head coach after Van Gaal and Aragones who can admire Gao Han very much.

Heinx seemed to have also gotten the answer from Gao Han's eyes and reactions, and felt quite sighing.

This is the ideal offensive football he has always wanted to pursue.

After a long time, the famous German coach calmed down and turned his attention to Gao Han again.

"The thing you need to pay attention to when fighting Real Madrid is not Zidane, not Figo, nor Raul, but..."
