Chapter 47 The Other Jose

Although they failed to stop Deportivo and Valencia, but in the current situation where the points gap between Barcelona and Deportivo is only two points, if they can successfully stop Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid must be very happy. One thing, it is almost impossible for Real Madrid to win the league title this season, and they are naturally even more reluctant to see Barcelona win three consecutive championships. If Mallorca can interfere with Barcelona's momentum of winning the championship, then Real Madrid will naturally have more interest in Mallorca Good impression, Jose also hopes to find some good things from Real Madrid in the future. Maintaining a good relationship is naturally very important.

As for Barcelona, ​​it is much more difficult to get cheap players from them than Real Madrid.

There is a saying in La Liga in later generations, that is, "Barcelona's youth training makes Barcelona strong, and Real Madrid's youth training benefits La Liga." Almost all the players trained by Barcelona are used by themselves. The better the players, the more so. On the contrary, There are so many people from Real Madrid's youth training every year, and few of them are used by themselves, almost all over La Liga...

For the sake of the future, Jose felt that it was worth taking even a little risk.

After making such a plan, Leeds United looked quite tragic in the second half.

Mallorca, which leads the score and is in a better physical condition, did not launch such a violent attack in the second half. Facing Mallorca who launched a dense defense, Leeds United felt a bit like a tiger eating a turtle and couldn't make a move.

Bowyer has outstanding talent, good skills and physical fitness, but this is a player who plays football depending on his mood. When he is in a good mood, he is like a new Gascoigne. If he is in a bad mood, he plays better than shit It's worse, even though the current Bowyer is not the villain who will fight with his teammates on the court in later generations, he is already a spoiled bad boy. Also began to play more and more casually.

This season is Bowyer's best season in Leeds. His performance is the biggest factor for Leeds to come to the present. Now he is lazy on the court at the beginning, and Leeds' offense has also begun to be greatly affected!

Although Smith and Kewell are still running with great professionalism, the overall downturn and the lack of a center like Viduka in the penalty area make Leeds United's offense only able to turn around on the periphery without causing substantial damage. Sexual shooting opportunities.

To deal with this kind of attack, Mallorca dealt with it quite easily.

As time passed, under the double stimulation of the decline in physical fitness and Mallorca's constant back and forth to pass the time, the Leeds players' offense became more and more weak, although the young people of Leeds hoped to be able to play at the last moment. Scoring a goal, but this goal seems so difficult to achieve at this time...

Seeing that the opponent's running started to slow down, Mallorca launched several threatening attacks in turn. Amid the cheers of the fans, Mallorca got several good chances in a row, but because of a little luck And the difference is a hair's breadth.

After Ibagaza's near-single-handed shot missed, Jose shook his head regretfully. It seems that this game can only win by two goals, but it's okay. The home team didn't allow the opponent to get an away goal. , Coupled with the advantage of two goal difference, this is already a huge enough advantage.

Sometimes in the knockout rounds, it is not necessary to establish such a big advantage in one go. Winning a goal is also a promotion, and scoring a goal based on the advantage of the number of away goals is also a promotion...

When the time for the end of the game was getting closer, Jose also became a little nervous. Although his face remained calm, his heart began to beat violently.

Although Leeds United's offense is still a little weak, but on the football field, it is often easy to be inexplicably scored by the opponent at the last moment-a 2-0 home win and a 2-1 home win are not much different in the league. But in the two rounds of knockout rounds, the difference was huge.

Fortunately, this unlucky situation did not appear on Mallorca.

When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, the score displayed on the on-site electronic display board was 2-0, with the home team in front—Mallorca beat Leeds United by two goals at home, heading towards the final of the UEFA Cup. A solid step has been made!

"The result of today's game is very good. Fortunately, because of the unsuitability to the weather, the Leeds players did not perform well on the field. I am very satisfied with the score of 2 to 0, but it cannot be said that we will definitely be able to enter the final We will be away to Leeds United in two weeks time, they will have 40,000 fans cheering on the scene, the current situation is very favorable, but two goals will not ensure our promotion, at Elland Road, We will be severely tested."

Jose's modesty in the post-match press conference surprised Spanish journalists who already had a pretty good idea of ​​what the young coach was like.

O'Reilly looked frustrated: "Mallorca is a comprehensive and good team, but the gap between us should not be so big. Two stupid mistakes let us give them two goals. , which put us under a lot of pressure until the second leg, but this is football, we made mistakes and got punished. Away goals are important and we didn't manage to do that."

The reporters were a bit disappointed to see the two fairly peaceful coaches, but the game was played peacefully. From the beginning to the end, Leeds United did not have much resistance, and Mallorca did not have the same advantage as usual. Afterwards, I chased and fought fiercely. Although it was the semi-finals of the UEFA Cup, it was really a bit boring...

Looking at the disappointed reporters, Jose smiled slightly. He was very satisfied with the game. The team won the game successfully without consuming much physical energy, and they will be able to deal with Barcelona well in the future. Laying a strong foundation for the second round of the game...

There is another reason that others don't know-that is, after Jose led Mallorca to defeat Galatasaray, history has changed. The two fans who have historically bloodied the streets of Istanbul have not suffered any harm, maybe They are now grieving the loss of the team they supported, but they still have enough time to feel the joy, anger, sorrow and joy brought by football, cheer and cry for their favorite team...

To be alive is better than anything else.

No one will know the credit of Jose, but Jose knows that he may have saved two lives by his unintentional actions. This thought makes him very happy.

With a happy mood, Jose threw himself into the preparations for the next league game.

Barcelona's life has not been very easy recently, and Van Gaal's life is also not very easy.

In the previous two seasons, Van Gaal led Barcelona to complete two consecutive championships in La Liga, but the results in the Champions League were mediocre. This season was originally a time for a breakthrough in the Champions League, although because of more concentrated In the Champions League, the league failed to maintain the advantage of the first two seasons, and it was still entangled with Deportivo in the second half. However, in the Champions Cup, they broke through two consecutive group matches and killed Entering the quarter-finals, after seeing this kind of result, the Barcelona fans who were dissatisfied with the growth of the "Dutch Gang" and the decline in the league performance already felt quite satisfied, but at this time...

At Stamford Bridge, Chelsea played an excellent game, Zola's brilliant free kick and Norwegian center Flo's brace gave them a 3-0 first-half victory over Barcelona, ​​who relied only on Luis Figo's second half. The goal kept the hope of promotion. Now this situation is very difficult for Barcelona. They are two points behind in the league. They must not give up casually. However, the second round of the Champions League will make them unable to give up. ...

Although it will be the second round of the game two weeks later, Barcelona's state is not very good recently, and they can't take it lightly in the face of Mallorca, which has won consecutive victories and is aggressive recently.

"The next game will be very difficult." Van Gaal sighed, and then asked the man beside him, "Jose, what do you think?"

The man sitting next to him who looked shaggy and with a shaggy beard thought for a while, then shook his head: "I don't know...the new coach in Mallorca, to be honest, is very good, so short Kneading Mallorca, who is already at the bottom of the ranking and has a dispirited military spirit, into shape within a short period of time, this kind of wrist is not something ordinary people can do."

"His name is Jose, and your name is Jose too... But don't be discouraged, Jose, if he hadn't had a good father, he wouldn't have been able to coach a team by himself in his twenties. It is more reliable to advance aggressively."

Jose Mourinho nodded slightly, he also believed in this - you must know that he also has a good father, the former Portuguese goalkeeper Phoenix Mourinho, if not for him, he would not have much talent in football Mourinho will not enter the coaching circle either, but he chose to start as a translator, studying under Robson and the current Van Gaal all the way, silently accumulating his own experience...

"Aside from the UEFA Cup, Jose Alemani has directed eleven La Liga games since he took office, with nine wins, one draw and two losses. For a rookie, this is really a remarkable number." Van Gaal picked up A piece of information, said thoughtfully.

Mourinho's eyes were fixed, and it was obvious that he had heard what Van Gaal meant.

"The two games they lost, one away to Deportivo and one away to Valencia. They were both in the UEFA Cup in the middle of the week or just after a UEFA Cup game. In order to save energy, And simply gave up the game... The starting lineup of Mallorca in these two games has a characteristic, that is, let the veterans on the defensive line rest collectively, and then use the offense to force a good loss." Murry Neo thought for a while and said.

"That's right, that's it. When the strength is not enough to support the two-line battle, it is a wise choice to give up some points that are already difficult to get, and try your best in the game with a higher winning rate. However, Ordinary coaches can't make such a determination, this young man is not easy." Van Gaal said with a smile.

"Then in the next round of the league, we don't need to worry too much." Mourinho nodded, agreeing with Van Gaal's statement.

"Mallorca's current relegation situation is actually quite optimistic. Presumably they will not fight hard in this game. Let's rotate some players in this game. Next weekend, Oviedo, who is in a bad relegation situation, and the next Champions League match It needs to be focused on." Van Gaal thought for a while and said: "Let Louis take a break, try to use Dani to play on the right, and it should be an experiment."
