Chapter 88

"Nine?"

In the president's office at Calderon stadium, when old hill heard the result, he jumped out of his seat with surprise and admiration on his face.

"Ha ha, yes, nine points. Dad, we are only nine points behind!"

Small hill is to smile not to close mouth, not conceal oneself excitement and excitement.

From 19 points behind to 9 points now, in just seven rounds, Atletico Madrid, like the Rockets, chased fiercely, and even caught up with the ninth place in the league, only 9 points behind the third place.

Now it's only 28 rounds, 14 rounds away from the end of the league, and the nine point gap is no longer out of reach.

Rao Shi was used to seeing old hill, who was used to big waves. When he heard the news, he was shocked.

Nine points, ranked ninth, Atletico Madrid finally catch up!

At this moment, the Spanish old man's muddy eyes turned red.

The bloated body twitched a few times over there, and the old man sat down again.

Little hill is the best one to understand his father's feelings. He went to his father's side, patted him gently on the shoulder, leaned down and said softly, "Dad, we still have a chance!"

This sentence made old hill look up again, look at his son, look at serezo, and look at Paul futre.

Each of the three confidants seems to be very confident and aggressive.

It's quite different from the decadence and depression of the team when they fell into the relegation zone two months ago.

Who would have thought, who would have thought?

High cold!

He did it!

"He's an incredible man!" Old hill sighed, full of admiration.

At the critical moment, the performance of Alpine is absolutely shocking.

"Yes, Dad, he is a rare talent!"

Hill's words immediately made serezo and Paul futre nod their heads.

How could old hill not know?

"But he's still too young."

The old man's words full of regret made people stop talking again.

Twenty three years old, which is the biggest obstacle to high cold.

Old hill looked at the front of the three confidants, "I understand what you mean, you do not support Aragones, I also know, but I dare say, if only one person in the world can save Atletico Madrid, it must be Aragones!"

The relationship between the Spanish coach and Atletico Madrid is beyond ordinary people's understanding.

As long as Atletico Madrid sends out an invitation, Aragones will come.

Moreover, he will certainly be able to help the team through the crisis.

There is no doubt about this, and no one should doubt it.

"The high cold is amazing, but it's too early to say anything now!"

Hill has been involved in Spanish politics and business for many years and has been in football for more than ten years. Who hasn't seen him?

Professional football is a vanity fair, I don't know how many amazing rookies emerge every year, but how many can stick to the end? How many people are like meteors, shining and vanishing in an instant?

From the community invitational tournament, to the second team, and now to the first team, Gao has always won in a row, and his performance is not eye-catching, but he is still young, and old hill is still not at ease.

Especially with the lessons of Zambrano and Marcos Alonso, he is more cautious.

Young hill, serezo and Paul futre also know that old hill is conservative.

But there's no way. For one thing, he's really old and can't stand the ups and downs. For another thing, Zambrano and Marcos Alonso have cheated and left a shadow on him.

In the final analysis, the cold won not enough!

You know, his competitor is Aragones!

"How is the team now?" Old hill asked again.

"The team is going well, but there are a lot of injuries

"Well?"

"Before that, Zoran nigus, Oscar MENA and ibich were injured. This time, Kiko was also injured. The old captain Aguilera was also injured. Now the situation of the team is not optimistic."

Injuries are the biggest enemy of all professional teams.

After the relegation of Atletico Madrid, the brain drain is serious, the lineup is already thin, and now there are so many injuries, which is not optimistic. If it is not handled properly, the good momentum of the team may be broken.

"What do you say about high cold?" Asked old hill with concern.

"He said he could overcome it!"

Old hill's eyes flashed with admiration.

From the night when he took over the first team, Gao's personality was right for him.

When it comes to injuries, hill is also full of remorse.

"If we had known earlier, we should have brought in one or two more players during the winter break to strengthen our strength, especially the midfield."

Serezo nodded.

When soldiers are used, they hate less.

When Gao Han took over, the consensus of the management was to make up for the shortcomings in the team's central defence, and the rest was to wait until the end of the season when the new manager took office.

But now it's totally different.

The team has caught up. The team is ninth in La Liga and only nine points behind the third. It is possible to catch up.

But the thickness of the team's bench can't keep up.

If we had given Gao Han more trust and support at that time and let him bring in one or two more players, the team would be in a much better situation now.

And the cold this person also really did not have to pick, did not blame the management, only said that they can overcome.

But the more he did, the more shame the management felt.

"He is now promoted to the second team, Gaby on the first team, played two games, the performance is still good, but in the end only 17 years old

Paul futre is the technical director and knows the current situation of the team, especially the situation faced by alpine cold.

And the reason why he said so much is to remind old hill that the team's situation is very difficult, even if the cold at this time lost, it is not because of his ability, but the team has too many injuries.

Old hill also became worried, "can you think of a way to introduce players?"

"The transfer period is over. Unless we bring in free agents, there is no way

"Free agent?" Old Hilton had no choice.

It's March. Where can I find a free agent?

Those who have the strength have already cast for other teams and got the contract.

As for the rest, I'm afraid they are not strong enough to meet the requirements of Atletico Madrid.

"Maybe there will be one in South America, and I'll let it out."

Although Paul futley said so, everyone knows that the hope is too slim, and the possibility is almost zero.

"Oh, by the way, we have been informed by the Football Association." Paul fortley suddenly remembered.

"Football Association notice?"

Both hill and serezo frowned and had a foreboding feeling.

"Well, the schedule of the king's cup has been determined. We will play the first leg next Wednesday. We are the host and then the guest."

Three people in the heart secretly cry as expected.

"I'll go to the king's cup if I don't come early or late?" Little hill yelled directly.

When the team had a good time, the king's cup had to be postponed because it had to accommodate Barcelona's European schedule.

Now that Barcelona have time, Atletico Madrid are full of injuries.

What's going on?

Serezo waved to little hill to calm him down. "Paul, can we also apply for an extension?"

"I'm afraid not." Paul futley shook his head.

"Barcelona had to postpone the match because they wanted to fight in Europe, but we..."

Atletico Madrid are only playing one week now, and the Coppa del Rey is playing in the middle of the week, so they are completely in line.

For the sake of fairness, the two semi-finals of the king's cup are scheduled to be held at the same time, one day apart, staggered live television time, so the football association will not allow Atletico Madrid to apply for an extension on the ground of too many injuries.

Do you really want to promise that the other three teams are still in trouble?

"And now what?" Asked little hill, very depressed.

But no one was able to answer.

They also have no way, can only hope that the magic of the cold can continue.

But this time, he did not meet Victor Fernandez and other second-class managers, but Spain's top coach, Zhisou, Luis Aragones!

…………

…………

"Just received the fax from the club, the king's cup schedule came out."

The coaching staff in the sports city of mahadarenda soon received a fax.

After listening to Sergio Garcia's words, Gao Han frowned.

I'm afraid I'll do whatever I'm afraid.

If really should a, the house leaks slant to meet even the night rain!

But at this time, everyone can panic, only he can't.

Because he is the head coach of the team!

"When?" Gao Han asked faintly.

His calmness calmed both cantarello and Garcia.

"Next Wednesday."

Gao Han nodded, there is still more than a week, but the weekend to play a league, the opponent is Elche.

This team is currently ranked 17th, but also to fight relegation, it will be a hard fight.

Anyone who is familiar with professional football knows that there are two kinds of teams that are the most difficult to play, one is to win the championship, the other is to avoid relegation.

Even, many times, relegation teams will be more difficult than championship teams, because they will give everything to play with you.

Once the opponent can not even name, it is really

Of course, it's not the critical relegation stage yet, so Elche won't play too hard.

"How is the team now?" The high cold looks to cantarello.

Cantarello knew that the situation was urgent, and immediately replied: "I've learned from Dr. beleron before that Zoran nigus and IBIC can take part in training, but I'm afraid we have to adjust our condition, but..."

"But what?"

"Aguilera's old injury is troublesome."

It's common for professional players to have injuries like soldiers.

But sometimes, when young, the injury is not very sharp, leaving hidden dangers. When old, the physical function declines, and then it breaks out. Even some professional players can't live without medicine cans after they retire.

There are too many veterans. That's the trouble.

"I know." I know the cold.

"High cold." Cantarello hesitated.

Gao Han raised his head and looked at his right-hand man.

Cantarello thought for a moment, "maybe we should consider giving up two-way combat."

"You mean... The king's cup?"

"Real Mallorca is very strong, ranking fourth in La Liga, unbeaten in the past six rounds, four wins and two draws. They beat La Coruna and Real Madrid at home and drew Barcelona away. They have adjusted their form very well."

Aragones is worthy of the name of Zhisou. After the winter break, the performance of Royal Mallorca is getting better and better.

Especially in the recent rounds, everyone thought that they had encountered strong opponents in succession, but who would have thought that they had won them all.

Just from the players' lineup, Atletico Madrid can't do anything about Real Mallorca.

Not to mention, now the sheet Corps is full of wounded.

But Gao Han shook his head and stood up, staring at cantarello without blinking.

"Carlos, I say again, I will not give up any game."

"Not in the past, not now, not in the future!"

"I know Real Mallorca is very strong, I also know Aragones is known as the number one coach in Spain, but I just want to fight him to see who will win in the end!"

"And I will not lose!"

"Even if he's Aragones!"
