Fox in the Penalty Area

Hantczek sat on the stage of the post-match press conference and said to a large group of reporters:

"Our players have been fully rested. Next Wednesday we will have the strongest lineup in the Champions League. Everyone will be in their best form to meet the Madrid Pirates... Becker is in good form, he has already tied the Kaiser's record, it's an amazing achievement. But I don't think he'll stop there, he'll set a new record next Wednesday and I have a lot of confidence in him..."

A reporter raised his hand and asked, "Will it be difficult for you to eliminate your old club?"

Hantchek shook his head and curled his lips: "I am now the head coach of Blue and White Munich. My job responsibility is to lead Blue and White Munich to victory, no matter who the opponent is. I am a professional head coach, so I know what I should do. what."

"After the first leg, the Madrid media criticized you for lack of respect for your old club. What do you think?"

"I think the greatest respect for my former club is to give it my all in the game and beat them. When I was coaching the Madrid Pirates, I also repeatedly emphasized the importance of winning. And what I did in Madrid last week, It's just for the pursuit of victory. I believe that people who really know me should understand that this is my way of showing respect..."

When Hantcheck left after the interview, the head coach of Wieserfogerburg appeared at the press conference.

As soon as he sat down, he said: "I came a little early, so I stood outside and listened. Then I wondered if I was in the wrong place - I was in the post-Champions League press conference between Albanian Munich and Madrid Pirates. Will you meet?"

Speaking of this, he smiled: "I'm joking. In fact, after I met Hantchek just now, I even blessed him, hoping that they can eliminate the Madrid Pirates in the second round next Wednesday... In this way , we beat the Blue-White Munich, and the Blue-White Munich also advanced to the final, so everyone is happy..."

"mess--!!"

The narrator roared in a drawn-out voice.

On the court, Hu Lai ran from the goal to the corner flag area, and then made his signature celebration.

"Two goals! This is Hu's second goal in this game! He helped the Madrid Pirates rewrite the score to 2:1! They finally took the lead away from Turias! Hu's form is really good Ah! At the same time, this is also his thirty-two consecutive league goals, and his fifty-third league goal!"

"Although Hu scored consecutive goals, his state is very good. However, due to the competition for the league title with the King of Madrid and Catalan United, Parotti did not make a large rotation of the team's lineup in this game, which will definitely affect the pirates. Their physical fitness... and Blue and White Munich played against Weiserfogerburg on the weekend, but all players rotated, and they would rather lose than ensure that the players' physical fitness is sufficient..."

"...In addition, perhaps in order to allow Hu to continue his scoring record in the league, Parotti has been hesitant to make any adjustments to Hu. He has to start every game. This will definitely accumulate Hu At the end of the season, a slight difference in physical fitness may affect the performance in the game..."

The German narrator first praised and then demoted.

In front of the TV, the head coach of Blue and White Munich, Hantchek, said to the coaches around him: "Don't listen to the commentator's nonsense. Facts have proved that Hu's physical fitness will not have any problems for you. He has almost full attendance this season. Missed two Copa del Rey games and one Super Cup, played all other games, but did you see any physical problems with him?"

Everyone shook their heads.

"So we still have to defend Hu most strictly in Wednesday's game, and don't give him a chance. First curb the possibility of Hu's goal, and then we can reverse and eliminate them at home."

In the 70th minute, Hu Lai was finally replaced.

Then in the 82nd minute, Parotti used up the last substitution.

But it wasn't Maxi Carey who was replaced.

"Parotti should not let Carey start the second round." Seeing Hantcheck asserted. "Otherwise he wouldn't have Kyrie playing the whole game."

First assistant coach Michelle Stade said: "Doesn't that mean that the Pirates will choose a more passive and conservative tactical strategy in the second round?"

"It should be like this. Parrotti wants to play a defensive counterattack."

"But can they hold it?" asked second assistant coach Grimand Aylmer. "They're not good at defending."

"The Buccaneers aren't a defensive team, but that doesn't mean they don't play well. But..."

Hantchek hesitated to speak here, then shook his head and said: "Parotti is still too timid. If I were him, I would attack at the beginning of the away game and try to disrupt our pre-match deployment. Don't let us play comfortably..."

"'Good guy', he still lacks some personality." Aylmer commented. "Otherwise, why did he win the first leg 2:1 last season, and was defeated by the King of Madrid in the second leg? Lack of boldness, too cautious. In the league, his cautious approach can allow the team to win the championship. , but in the Champions League dialogue, if you are timid, you will fail."

Madrid Pirates head coach Ettore Parotti was criticized after being knocked out in the semi-finals of last season's Champions League by arch-rivals.

He can be regarded as the direct person in charge of the loss.

Some people said that Parotti was too conservative and cautious when he went to the away game when the total score was leading, which eventually led to the team's failure.

Parotti did not defend himself, and even confirmed such criticism.

After that failure at the beginning, there were even rumors that Parotti would be dismissed from get out of class. I think such a head coach with no personality can no longer lead the Pirates to move forward.

If Parrotti hadn't led the team to win the league championship in the end, maybe he would really dismiss get out of class...

As a comparison, Hantcheck led the Madrid Pirates to be eliminated by the Turin Bulls in the semi-finals of the Champions League. After the game, there were no rumors that Hantcheck would be fired.

From this we can see who is more popular.

Hantchek didn't want the coaching staff to talk too much about his successor, so he brought the conversation back on track.

"Okay, never mind who Parotti is. We just have to do our own thing. Right now, the good thing for us is that without Kyrie, they're going to be less of an offensive threat. Bad The other side is that if we are unable to score for a long time, I am afraid that they will seize the space behind us. So I ask the whole team to maintain enough high pressure and fast pace to play this game, and make good physical preparations..."

He began to assign tasks to the coaching staff.

Everyone also got serious, got rid of the previous state of gossip and gossip, and entered the rhythm of work.

Mark Becker was stopped by his wife at the door before heading out to practice:

"I have been praying to God for this matter for a week. Just this morning, I got her revelation. The Lord told me that you will definitely score in tomorrow's game and break the Caesar's record."

Becker smiled slightly when he heard this, and then bowed his head to give his wife an affectionate kiss: "Thank you, Elsa. I am full of strength now."

"Come on Mark, you're the best!"

The couple bid farewell at the door. After Becker's training, he will not return home.

He will go to the hotel with his teammates to recharge his batteries and prepare for the second round of the Champions League semi-final tomorrow night.

And his wife will also go to the scene to cheer for her husband and witness the special moment when the Lord bestows blessings.

"Meli! Meli dribbling the ball at high speed! In front of him is the goal of Sporting Amsterdam and no one can stop him anymore... Beautiful! Goal!! Meli Banega! This is his game The second goal! Although it is only 65 minutes now, the game is over! Ladies and gentlemen! The game is over! The King of Madrid has led Athletic Amsterdam 2:0 at home, with a total score of 5:1! Is there any suspense about the outcome of this game?"

The majestic team anthem of the King of Madrid sounded at the Crown Stadium.

Amidst the team song, Meli and his teammates hugged and celebrated.

In the distance, in a corner that the camera couldn't capture, Chen Xingyi put his hands on his knees, bent over, panting heavily.

This is the fourth time he has played against Melly this season, and it is still so disappointing...

I wanted to meet Hu Lai in the final and stage the "Chinese Derby" in the Champions League final, but now I can only watch the King of Madrid reach the Champions League final for the second consecutive season...

Meli was the superstar that everyone was watching, but he was hidden in the darkness outside the spotlight.

Hold! I really learned the experience of being eliminated by Meli from Hu Lai...

Chen Xingyi thought to himself mockingly.

"The King of Madrid has reached the Champions League final for two consecutive seasons, and they will have the opportunity to attack for two consecutive championships!"
