Chapter 306 Unless you come to the Premier League

"It's a sad game, we made several very serious mistakes and were taken by our opponents and created goals, and we should all review our performance in this game, including myself."

At the post-match press conference, when reporters asked Ferguson's opinion on the game, the Red Devils coach did not become frustrated by losing the game as the outside media speculated.

On the contrary, he still looked calm and composed.

"But I don't think Atletico Madrid performed better in this game. On the contrary, we had the advantage in a lot of time, but we missed too many scoring opportunities, which made us punished."

"The opponents are unquestionably lucky, and they have taken advantage of the few opportunities well."

After Ferguson said this, the entire press conference suddenly started to talk.

It is obvious that not everyone agrees with his point of view.

Especially as the opponent of the game, Gao Han.

"I have great respect for Mr. Ferguson, but I have to point out some of his data errors, and even if necessary, I am willing to provide detailed data given by my team or authority."

"In this game, we have a clear advantage in terms of ball possession and pass success rate. We have created more scoring opportunities. If we look at the conversion rate, we should be regretful because we could have created a more amazing score."

Gao Han's words immediately made the atmosphere at the entire press conference soar rapidly.

Both Spain and the British media reporters were excited.

The most satisfying thing is to watch the two coaches fighting against each other on the court and continue to fight off the court.

"But he said something very right, we did perform better, and I believe that this game not only brought us valuable victory, but also gained confidence."

"I want to tell all Atletico Madrid players that we should play more confidently because we are not losing to any opponent, even the top European giants."

Many reporters at the scene also agreed with Gao Han's answer.

As a team that has been away from the Champions League for many years, has experienced relegation and is of such a low average age, it is indeed quite rare to be able to defeat strong opponents in the Champions League.

When competing with strong teams, especially wealthy teams, the biggest gains is self-confidence.

Judging from the game against Manchester United, Atletico Madrid is more confident than when playing against Bayern Munich and AC Milan.

"Hello, Mr. Ferguson, my problem is that in this game, the performance of captain Roy Keane was not satisfactory. Although it was not his direct responsibility to concede the goal twice, it was basically a problem in the area behind the midfield."

"Since this season, the statement that Roy Keane is thirty-one years old and has passed his peak period has been circulating. May I ask you, Mr. Ferguson, what do you think of such remarks?"

After the reporter asked, everyone immediately turned their eyes to Ferguson.

Keane's performance in this game was indeed not ideal. As the captain on the field, although he was as brave as ever, the effect was not ideal. The double midfielder composed of him and Barth failed to curb Atletico Madrid's midfielder.

The two goals of the Bedsheets Legion were made by Kaka directly or indirectly assisting, which gave Keane and Bart an unshirkable responsibility, especially the captain Keane.

"Roy is a very good player. He was, now, still, an indispensable spiritual symbol of the team. I never doubt him."

"He did not perform well in this game, but considering that he had just returned from injury, I don't think he should be too harsh on him, and I also believe that soon, the best Keane will return to us."

Ferguson's answer was also powerful and resounding.

Everyone on the scene could feel his support for Roy Keane from these words.

But it is undeniable that Keane's performance in recent times has indeed been unsatisfactory, and it is also a big question whether he can even take the lead in Manchester United's midfielder.

However, no one is willing to investigate such things.

"Hello, Mr. Gao Han."

A reporter who raised his hand to ask a question stood up under the command of the host and took the microphone.

"I am a reporter for the Spanish National, Santi."

"Hello, Sandy." Gao Han replied.

"Before this game, I predicted Atletico Madrid would win, not because I am Espanyol, but because I think Atletico Madrid has the strength to go further in the Champions League."

"Thank you, Sandy."

"My question is, Mr. Gao Han, you mentioned just now that the team has made great progress in the Champions League. Can you tell us in detail about this?"

"Thank you Sandy."

Gao Han smiled and watched Sandy sit back in her seat, then looked at Ferguson beside her, and finally faced the reporter.

"This is a feeling that is difficult to explain clearly. The Champions League is the highest-level competitive platform in today's professional football. Here, every team is very outstanding and has its own unique style."

"It's like Manchester United, Mr. Ferguson coached Manchester United for many years, has left a deep mark on this team. They play more patiently and more brave than we imagined."

"In this game, I found that Premier League teams have a strong momentum, which is completely different from Serie A and La Liga, which makes it easier for them to gain the upper hand in the game."

“I’m very grateful that our players, although young, are more focused than ever before, and we didn’t make unforgivable mistakes in the game, which ultimately brought us a precious victory.”

As soon as Gao Han finished speaking, a burst of warm applause rang out at the scene.

But soon a reporter who was provoking trouble shifted the topic to Ferguson again.

"Hello, Mr. Ferguson, you said before the game that a head coach like Gao Han and a team like Atletico Madrid can only succeed in La Liga. I wonder if this game will change your impression?"

As soon as the reporter finished asking, the scene suddenly applauded.

This question is too obvious, it is simply arousing the war between the two.

But I don’t know if it is to divert the conflict or for other purposes, Ferguson laughed.

"I still stick to my original judgment. Gao Han and Atletico Madrid can only succeed in La Liga and come to the Premier League..."

The old handsome pursed his lips, and the following words were self-evident.

Gao Han, who was sitting next to him, also smiled, "It seems that there is still no way to convince you in a game."

"Of course." Ferguson nodded with a smile, "unless you come to the Premier League to prove it in person."

"Only you can convince me?"

"Maybe."

Gao Han nodded with a smile and said, "Then I will think about it seriously."

"Then I welcome you to the Premier League in advance!" Ferguson responded provocatively.

There was a scream at the scene, and all the media reporters present were excited.

There is too much information here, right?

…………

…………

The entire post-match press conference ended in an atmosphere like a chicken blood among media reporters.

All the reporters who came to the scene could be said to have returned home with a full load and received a lot of news, especially the battle between Gao Han and Ferguson, which made them leave with satisfaction.

But what they didn't know was that Gao Han and Ferguson, who were having a great time in front of media reporters, stood up and left at the same time after the press conference, but Ferguson called Gao Han in the passage to the locker room.

At this moment, the old Scottish coach did not have the kindness at the press conference, but instead looked indignant and walked towards Gao Han in a fierce manner and stared at him vigorously.

"Let's go, drink, I don't want to stop, you are not allowed to leave!"

After Gao Han listened, he became Spartan.

…………

…………

Proud Manchester United failed at home, and its pragmatic style of play made Atletico Madrid win away!

With third-rate defense, Manchester United's defense became the number one criminal!

A beautiful offensive storm, Atletico Madrid shows European-style Latin style!

The brave Manchester United lost regretfully at home, and the dark horses of La Liga continued to gallop across Europe!

...

On the second day after Atletico Madrid defeated Manchester United 2-0 away, major media around the world reported on this game, and they praised the Bedding Team who won the away game.

The Spanish National Daily focused on commenting on this game, believing that Atletico Madrid has basically played its advantages and maintained its traditional style of play. The two goals are also very distinctive of Atletico Madrid.

"As we all know, Atletico Madrid has never been a ball-controlled La Liga team. They value unrestrained and smooth fast-paced offense and defense, which led them to win the double championship in the mid-1990s, but later suffered a relegation."

"After taking over the team, Gao Han, a young coach from China, quickly led the team to revive. Based on Atletico Madrid's traditional style of play, it incorporated delicate Spanish passing and control elements, and also injected some Latin style."

"All those who have watched Atletico Madrid will definitely be impressed by the counterattack of the Bedsheets, but it is not the defensive counterattack of traditional European football, but the more Latin-style on-site counterattack."

"Even on the football field, the players' adaptability to the places, times and situations has made Atletico Madrid's offense full of imagination, becoming more elusive and difficult to defend."

"The two goals against Manchester United are the best proof of this style."

Compared with the Spanish media's praise for Atletico Madrid and Gao Han, the British media generally regretted Manchester United's home defeat, believing that Manchester United is very brave and created many opportunities, but they have no choice but to break the iron wall of Atletico Madrid.

For the two goals conceded, the media generally blamed the lowest scored center back Brown, as well as two midfielders Keane and Bart.

There were even sarcastic media reporters who mocked Keane without any bottom line, which immediately caused Ferguson to fight back and announced that they would ban the newspaper and the reporter.

But it is undeniable that after two rounds of games, Atletico Madrid, which won two consecutive games, had the advantage of qualifying in the group, while Manchester United, which won and lost, had the same points as Roma, and both were temporarily at a disadvantage.

The Swiss team Basel lost two consecutive games, and it is basically difficult to win opportunities from three teams.
