Chapter 196 How Can You Underestimate the Enemy? (6/21)

On the night of the game, the Italian media was excited again.

In their eyes, Lazio has already advanced to the final.

Roma TV simply announced that Lazio was the first team to reach the final.

The guests invited by the TV station were talking loudly.

Tell everyone why Lazio can advance to the final.

They analyze it from various angles.

Some people say that the head coach Chang Sheng leads the team well, while others say that the players are talented.

Others say it's time and fate...

Anyway, it is basically an argument to tout Lazio.

"Chang's excellent coaching ability is the key to Lazio's rapid rise...Think about what Lazio was like three seasons ago, and look at Lazio now. We have to admit that Chang has brought new life to this team. He He seems to be very good at this kind of thing, whether it is at Getafe or Valencia, he has brought a new life to the coaching team..."

Breno Pacheco angrily turned off the TV and threw away the remote.

"I don't fucking admit it!" he yelled at the turned off TV screen.

Lazio beat Chelsea 3-0 at home and stepped into the Luzhniki Stadium with one leg.

There are many people who are not happy with this result. Pacheco is one of the representatives.

He hopes that Lazio will be unlucky, and that Changsheng will be unlucky.

As a result, he worked hard for half a season. Apart from some minor setbacks, Lazio did not suffer any injuries.

It's like fighting against him, but it's getting better and better.

In the league, with four league rounds left, Lazio is ten points ahead of the second-placed Inter Milan... What is that concept?

That means that as long as Lazio wins another round of the league, they will win the championship three rounds ahead of schedule!

In the Champions League, the inexperienced Lazio made it all the way to the semi-finals, beating Chelsea by three goals in the first leg of the semi-finals. Half the body is in the final...

This was completely different from what he had envisioned.

He is not reconciled.

He was very dissatisfied.

He didn't believe that he could only watch the arrogant people continue to be arrogant...

He remembered that someone had seen Falcao's agent appearing in Barcelona. He didn't know what happened to Falcao's transfer... He took out his mobile phone and contacted his reporter friend at the "World Sports Daily" , I hope they can help me find out the news about this matter.

※ ※ ※

Neither Barcelona nor Lazio have announced Falcao's transfer.

This is the agreement written in the contract between the two parties.

That is not to wait until the end of the season, never announce this transfer deal.

Although Laporta would like to announce this exciting result immediately.

But Lazio didn't allow it.

Because Lazio are now at a critical stage.

They are hitting the Champions League.

At this time, if the news of Falcao's transfer is announced, it will definitely attract the attention of the media and arouse the fans' rebound, which will affect the team's preparations and game status.

Chang Sheng doesn't want to lose the Champions League because of this matter. Otherwise, he would rather not earn the fifty million euros.

Therefore, in the contract between the two parties, there is such a clause: the Barcelona club is not allowed to announce the news of Falcao's transfer before the end of the season without the unification of the Lazio club.

Therefore, the media are still upsurge of Falcao's outstanding performance. Maybe it will win him more teams, or earn a bigger contract...

Lazio fans launched a voluntary campaign, hoping that Falcao can stay.

When Falcao was interviewed by reporters, he kept his mouth shut about his future.

Apparently his manager, Claudio Mocio, gave him a gag order and explained to him how powerful he was.

If he is exposed in advance. How much trouble that would cause him.

Player transfer flow is normal, but when he has gained enough fans' love, the problem becomes complicated.

Most of the fans are naive, even... "irrational".

In their view, Lazio selling players every year is a sign of no ambition, and Lotito is a stingy chairman.

As for the money earned from selling players to help the club pay off its debts. They don't care.

They hope that the chairman of their club has inexhaustible wealth, and when the club is short of money, they will take it out of their own wallets. At the same time, he has to love his club so much that he won't stumble no matter how much money he pays... If he must add a deadline to this. They hope it is... 10,000 years!

This is the "good chairman" in the minds of fans.

But such a chairman does not exist, it only exists in their deep minds and dreams.

Moratti loves the chairman of the Inter Milan club so much, there will be times when he can't afford to buy the players Inter Milan likes, and there will be times when he sells the shares of the Inter Milan club to Indonesian businessmen...

Berlusconi gave Milan the glory of the early years. Created the Milan dynasty, and now he is thinking about how to sell Milan.

this is the truth. It's a pity that in reality, most fans can't see it.

On the second day after the game ended, Chang Sheng did not take a day off for the team, but trained normally. It stands to reason that he should have a vacation, even if it is half a day.

After all, it is already the end of the season, and everyone's physical fitness is not as good as before.

In addition, there is no team in the league that can threaten Lazio, and Lazio can do whatever they want.

So it's okay to miss a day of training.

But Chang Sheng still uncharacteristically asked the players to continue training the next day after the game.

Every player was puzzled, and when they came to the locker room to change, everyone was still complaining that the boss didn't let them rest.

They completed a beautiful game...

Jose Passarella watched with cold eyes.

Although he doesn't know as much as his boss, but he is very clear that the atmosphere inside this team is indeed different from before...

In the past, the boss said what he said, and no one in the locker room would have so much nonsense.

Now, that cohesion is really going down. If there wasn't a Champions League goal hanging in front, I'm afraid many people would have rebelled... With the second lowest standard salary in Serie A after Udinese, the training intensity is one of the best...

Just hope before falling apart. Everyone can work together to win their most important championship!

※ ※ ※

Before the training started, Chang Sheng said to the puzzled players: "Before starting today's training, I will tell you a story. In the quarter-finals of the Champions League in the 2003-2004 season, Valencia lost the first leg away to Milan, and it was a disastrous one. The 1-4 score made it impossible to believe that they could still advance. But guess what happened in the end?"

Chang Sheng asked everyone seriously.

Everyone knows the answer to this question. Because that game is so famous...

This is Chang Sheng's masterpiece in the Champions League.

Although Chang Sheng had led Valencia to the Champions League for a season before that, but that game really made him famous in Europe.

A week later, Valencia led by him beat Milan 5-0 at home and eliminated the then defending Champions League champions with a total score of 6-4.

"Later, Valencia reversed Milan. I think everyone knows about this game. I have heard of it. But I think you may not know the story behind it. Do you know why Valencia was able to reverse Milan? From the strength From the point of view of the gap, Valencia is not Milan's opponent. But in fact, Valencia has reversed Milan. If someone thinks it is a coincidence, then such a person can only win by coincidence in his life. In fact, Valencia West Asia did their best, but at the same time Milan's pride and underestimation helped Valencia a lot."

"At that time, Milan didn't think that Valencia might reverse them at home, so they were not very prepared. Everyone's mind was not on this game. This created a strong condition for Valencia's reversal. Now , take a look, how similar is the situation to that game?"

"Chelsea are three goals away. The media is full of news that Lazio will go to the final. Even the media in London is not optimistic about Chelsea. Even ourselves, I am afraid that we will go to the final. But be careful, Guys, if you're thinking about the final from now on, I bet it's Chelsea!"

"That's why I'm going to keep you guys training today. I don't want you to be so proud of your first-leg wins. My team used their pride to beat them. I don't want my team to Let the opponent use the method I used to eliminate us! Therefore, today is still normal training. Everyone must cheer me up. Don’t think that you have entered the finals! It’s still very early!”

"Now, all warm up!"

Rudy Gonzalez stood up and whistled. After the harsh whistle, the Lazio assistant coach shouted: "Your boss is right! Pride is our worst enemy! If you want to be the laughingstock of the world in a week's time, you can do it now Be lazy! I won't stop you because I like to laugh at idiots too!"

Now everyone knows how impossible it is for Grant to rely on Lazio's pride and underestimate the enemy to reverse and eliminate Lazio at home...

How could something like losing an important game because of pride and underestimating the enemy happen to Chang Sheng?

He has never come from the future, and he has accumulated many experiences from his predecessors. These experiences are always reminding him not to take the wrong path of his predecessors.

In addition, with his cautious style, how could he underestimate the enemy?

If Chelsea thought he would underestimate the enemy. He wouldn't mind surprising Grant and his mates at Stamford Bridge in the second leg! (To be continued. If you like this work.
