Chapter 915
When the referee Stark blew the whistle to the end of the game, the huge Bernabeu stadium was silent.
All Real Madrid fans don’t know what kind of reaction they should give to express their mood at this moment well, because they watch their beloved team be defeated by their opponents with one goal.
Is Mourinho's team not working hard enough and unwilling to fight to the death?
Wrong, Real Madrid players can be said to have put all their strength into the last moment, but they still failed to reverse the defeat.
This game made them clearly see that Real Madrid's existing lineup does not have the ability to compete with top teams such as Barcelona and Manchester City, and even if they are strictly guarded and defended, it would not work.
Gao Han's team scored a 79% possession rate at the Bernabeu Stadium, and almost the whole game was overwhelming Real Madrid. The Galaxy's shots in the entire game were only just six times, and they shot right once, and they failed to create a threat. How to break through Manchester City's goal?
It can be said that the outcome of this game allowed them to see the gap in Real Madrid's strength.
Not only Real Madrid fans in the stands, but also Florentino in the administrative district of the chairman.
The Real Madrid president's face was not good because he knew very well that this loss almost meant that Real Madrid would leave the Champions League, and it would be difficult for the Galaxy Battleship to reverse the situation in the second round.
Gao Han will once again lead his team to the Champions League final.
This will be his fourth time reaching the Champions League final, winning the first three times, and this time it should be.
"Marinho has done his best." Zidane, who was sitting aside, said lightly.
Florentino nodded. He understood that he had tried his best, and his skills were inferior to others and had nothing to say.
It can even be said that it is enough to win a Copa del Rey this season in Barcelona.
If you want to counterattack Barcelona, Florentino can only hope for the next season, and the team must increase its investment this summer, but the problem now is that there are not many superstars available for him to choose from in the transfer market.
"I think the weakest link we have now is in the wing and midfield." Zidane's tone is still very plain. "The wing lacks attacking ability, Di Maria is one of the few players in the team who have the ability to break through the wing, and the midfield lacks control. You also know that this means we will play very passively."
Controlled football, a wave that has been set off by Gao Han in European football in the past decade, has now become the consensus and mainstream of everyone, and it is also the pursuit of most strong teams.
Florentino nodded first, expressing his agreement with Zidane's judgment, but then shook his head and sighed.
"I originally wanted to introduce Robben and Ribery, but you also saw that Bayern Munich refused to live or die. Now they are all twenty-eight years old. As for Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka..."
Florentino failed to finish his words, these two superstars were the eternal pain in his heart.
It was just a little bit short of that, and they both joined Real Madrid.
"In the midfield, David Silva and Modric are our original goals, especially Modric, but he followed Gao Han to Manchester City. Now the dual cores formed by the two are the world's top. No matter how much money we spend, we can't convince Manchester City to release them."
After Florentino entered Real Madrid in the second time, he learned from his mistakes and learned from the first phase of the Galaxy Battleship in transfers. He attached more importance to younger and localization in terms of signings, and invested huge sums of money for the 28-year-old Robben and Ribery, which obviously violated Florentino's philosophy.
What's more, Bayern Munich may not agree.
"Actually, I think Hazard from Chinatown is quite good and has great potential," Zidane said.
"I know." Zidane has recommended this player to Florentino more than once, but the Real Madrid president also has his own concerns. "You should understand that Hazard is a player appointed by Gao Han. It is not easy to convince Gao Han to release people. And do you really think he is ready to play the main player for us?"
Zidane cannot guarantee it.
Judging from the performance of Chinatown this season, Mi Chu is undoubtedly the most eye-catching, and Aubameyang also performed very well. Although Hazard made great progress and firmly took up the main force, his performance was relatively inferior to his two teammates.
Even when it comes to the limelight, he is not as good as the midfielder James Rodriguez.
The Colombian striker has performed very well in La Liga this season. Whether his partners are Schneiderlin, Rakitic, or Herrera, Isco and Cork, he has performed quite well.
This is a very comprehensive No. 10 player.
"By the way." Florentino suddenly remembered something, "You have recently studied coaching courses in Chinatown?"
"Yeah, yes." Zidane nodded.
"Have Gao Han come to teach?"
Zidane shook his head, "I heard that after the end of this season, he will come to give a lecture, and many people are already booking in advance."
In the end, the French superstar couldn't help but smile. Gao Han's attractiveness was even better than that of popular superstars.
"Look for an opportunity to help me find out. I heard that he may leave Manchester City this summer." Florentino stopped.
But Zidane understood it.
From the beginning, Florentino's best coach was Gao Han, but Gao Han has always been very resistant to coaching Real Madrid. But now it seems that Florentino is not giving up and still wants to continue pursuing Gao Han.
"Okay, I'll ask if I have the chance." Zidane nodded.
After a pause, the French superstar said again: "If... I mean if Gao Han really coaches Real Madrid, I hope to be his assistant coach."
Seeing Zidane's interested eyes, Florentino was a little surprised.
He didn't expect that even the French superstars were Gao Han's fans.
…………
…………
While Florentino and Zidane in the stands were discussing Gao Han, the protagonist had already celebrated the victory of the game with the players and assistants, and turned around and walked back to the coach's seat.
As the host, Mourinho lost the ball, but he still walked over with a tough bullet.
"Congratulations, you won the game." Mourinho's face was full of two words, disappointed.
"Thank you." Gao Han felt very happy when he saw his expression. After shook hands with joy, he said with a smile: "Maybe the lawn is not tall enough this time. Remember how long it is twenty or thirty centimeters next time. If it doesn't work, spread fine sand into the lawn. You know, this trick is very effective."
Mourinho looked as if he was ashen after hearing this. How could he not hear that Gao Han was deliberately ridiculing him?
Before the game, he had not lost. After listening to Gao Han's words, he only regarded Gao Han's words as a warning, thinking that this was the advantage of Gao Han's speech after being hit by him. But now he felt completely different and felt extremely harsh.
But in this regard, he knew that he was in the wrong, so he just snorted coldly, "You won't be so lucky next time."
"Ha, maybe, but you'd better think about how to deal with the media after the game. Although you've always been good at dealing with them, this time it's probably not that simple."
Gao Han smiled gloatingly.
"Oh, by the way, and UEFA, we have officially submitted a written protest. Whether it is the height of the lawn, the number of watering times and the time, you have completely violated our pre-match agreement, so you should think about how to whitewash yourself."
According to UEFA's rules, the lawn must be watered before and during the halftime break, but Real Madrid obviously did not follow each other's agreement, and the lawn was too high. Real Madrid still did not make any rectifications after referee Stark proposed it.
These two points alone are enough to cause trouble for Mourinho.
What's more, after trying hard and doing everything, he lost this game.
Thinking of this, Gao Han felt very relieved, and a sudden flash of inspiration in his mind.
"I suddenly remembered that in our China, there is an old saying that describes the current situation most appropriately."
Regardless of whether Mourinho wanted to listen or not, Gao Han laughed and said, "I've lost my wife and my army."
Mourinho didn't understand what this meant, but it goes without saying that from Gao Han's smile, it is definitely not a good thing to say, it must be a deception and mocking himself.
Mourinho had no way to fight back on this point, so he could only snort coldly, turn his head and leave.
But before leaving, the Portuguese did not forget to say a harsh sentence, "See you in Manchester in a week!"
Gao Han always ignored this kind of harsh words before leaving, and happily responded, "Okay, in a week, I will definitely trim the turf and water it in the city stadium, and wait for you to come!"
When he heard this, Mourinho's mouth twitched obviously and he almost ran away.
It's such a slap in the face!
But the Manchester City players behind him cheered loudly, and they all surrounded Gao Han.
"Well said, boss!"
"You are so powerful, boss!"
"This response is absolutely amazing!"
"It's just to let them see that any conspiracy is not as reliable as the hard power on the court."
"Yes, instead of having that time to play those tricks, it's better to spend more time on the game."
The scene of Manchester City players making excitement on the sidelines was soon captured by media reporters stationed on the sidelines.
Media reporters have already received rumors about everything that happened inside and outside the stadium, including Real Madrid's actions before the game. The reason why it has not happened for a long time is to wait for the results of the game.
If Mourinho wins, this is of course a clever plan. They will do everything possible to describe Mourinho's pre-match action incredible, because fans and readers like to watch this kind of off-court gossip the most.
But if Mourinho loses, they will take the lead. Cooperate with Manchester City's protest letter, they will attack Real Madrid and Mourinho in a group, and explode the inside story, which can still attract the attention of readers and fans.
And now that Real Madrid has lost, it’s almost time for them to start acting.
So, all the media reporters rushed to the sidelines and began to ask the Manchester City players who won the game. They hoped to get more news from them for their evaluation of this game, and even encouraged them to criticize Mourinho and Real Madrid.
Gao Han also fulfilled his pre-match promise and allowed all players to accept interviews from media reporters, but he also reminded players to stop at the right time and not to cross the bottom line, especially not to fall into the trap of media reporters.
