Super Marshal

Another zero to three!

The post-match press conference held at the Bernabeu completely became Mourinho's one-man show.

The Portuguese has become the target of public criticism. Faced with media inquiries and even accusations, Mourinho has repeatedly stated that his team has tried its best, everyone has worked very hard, and he has no reason to blame them.

"That's what football is like. We tried our best, but our opponents played at a higher level, even at the highest level, so we looked terrible in comparison, but that shouldn't be a reason to blame us. , isn’t it?”

Regarding the 0-3 loss to Manchester City in two rounds, Mourinho said, "This is a defeat, but it is definitely not a humiliation."

Gao Han also held the same remarks as Mourinho.

When answering questions from media reporters, Gao Han also repeatedly stated that it is not easy for the team to win at the Bernabeu.

"Real Madrid played very bravely in this game. I can feel their determination and fighting spirit. They competed with strong mental strength. This put great pressure on us, but I am very fortunate that we have A great group of players who can handle the pressure."

Regarding the team's victory, Gao Han expressed this great joy. Being able to qualify from the Champions League group stage is the team's best Christmas gift to all Manchester City fans.

"I am very happy that my team can live up to expectations and bring joy to all fans before Christmas. We have adhered to our style and achieved an almost perfect result. I feel that we can end the Champions League group stage in this way. I'm extremely proud, but we still need to keep working hard."

Mourinho also quickly continued to answer questions from media reporters. He once again reiterated that this was just a tasteless group match.

"What I want to say is that this game will not affect or even change anything at all. We have already qualified from the group stage and we will enter the Champions League knockout round of 16. That is the challenge for us."

"A match of strength cannot explain anything at all, because we still have a long way to go, and we still need to continue to work hard. As for who will have the last laugh, who knows?"

Mourinho also said that he is full of confidence in the team and players.

"Of course it will be regrettable and even a little frustrating to lose, but it is not a problem at all. We can definitely pick ourselves up again. We need to be more dedicated and focused on the game."

"Yes, there are so many players on the team with different personalities, different experiences, and different ways of dealing with difficulties. Of course, winning will make everyone ecstatic, but we must learn to continue to maintain fighting spirit after losing, and That ambition to win, train hard, and focus on the game.”

Gao Han also answered a subsequent question, "This is just a very ordinary game. It will not affect the situation and the overall situation. The strength gap between our two teams is not as obvious as shown in the score. Our opponents It’s not weak, even though they lost, Real Madrid is still the top team in football today.”

As for the game itself, Gao Han said that what he was most satisfied with was not the score, but the way he won.

"We have tried hard to try more diverse offenses and enrich our tactical ideas. I think these have been very well cited in the game and have achieved quite good results. This is what makes me most satisfied."

At the press conference after the game, although Mourinho lost, he was neither humble nor arrogant. He just lost his previous high profile and became more restrained, but gave people an impression of being unconvinced and full of resilience. This is also very In line with his usual character.

Gao Han maintained the gentlemanly demeanor of a winner and did not add insult to injury at all.

The two seemed to be very harmonious at the press conference, and they gave each other enough respect. However, after the press conference, after the two left the venue at the same time, Gao Han suddenly asked Mourinho curiously. question.

"I'm curious, why did you use such tactics in this game?"

Mourinho stopped and hesitated for two or three seconds before turning his head to look at Gao Han and smiling inexplicably, "Guess."

I guess?

Gao Han looked at Mourinho's leaving figure, full of doubts in his heart, but he thought it was quite funny.

Is this an indirect affirmation of the conspiracy theory in my mind?

Or maybe he lost and didn't want to defend himself at all?

Or...are there various reasons?

As Manchester City defeated Real Madrid 3-0 in an away game, the Champions League group stage also officially came to an end.

After several months of fierce competition, the eight groups have also determined their rankings.

Manchester City and Real Madrid both qualified together, but AC Milan's situation was not so ideal. The Rossoneri lost to Ajax 0-2 at home in the last round. Suarez performed brilliantly with every pass and shot.

The Uruguayan striker, who had just staged a vampire bite and was suspended in the Netherlands, staged the final redemption in this Champions League group match, helping Ajax reverse AC Milan and win the Europa League. qualifications.

The unlucky Rossoneri were eliminated from European competitions as a result, causing shock to the entire Italian football world.

In addition to this big upset, another big upset in the Champions League group stage is the Gunners Arsenal.

Wenger's team performed quite well for a time, beating Braga 6-0, beating Partizan Belgrade 3-1, and beating Shakhtar Donetsk 5-1. The Gunners were unstoppable and invincible in the first three rounds.

However, in the fourth round away game against Shakhtar Donetsk, Arsenal lost 1-2 away, and then lost 0-2 away to Braga in the fifth round, ushering in two consecutive defeats and losing 0-2. The top spot in the group went to Shakhtar Donetsk.

In the final round, Arsenal defeated Partizan Belgrade 3-1 at home, but Shakhtar Donetsk also defeated Braga 2-0 at home. In the end, the Ukrainian team ranked first in the group, and Arsenal only won the group. second.

Real Madrid and Arsenal, the two second-place teams in the group are both a headache and make the draw for the upcoming UEFA Champions League knockout rounds full of suspense. No one wants to encounter these teams so early. Two powerful enemies.

However, Arsenal and Real Madrid, one team from the same country and one team from the same group, had no impact on Manchester City, who qualified as the group leader.

Whether the remaining teams are Valencia, Roma, Werder Bremen, Lyon, Marseille, or even Copenhagen, Gao Han is confident enough to win the opponent, so he doesn't take the draw to heart.

But what really surprised Gao Han was that on the weekend of the sixth round of the Champions League group stage, Real Madrid challenged Barcelona away. As a result, Mourinho's team lost 0-5 at the Camp Nou. The bottom ended in a disastrous defeat.

This defeat in the derby of the century caused a huge sensation around the world. It not only completely diluted the shadow of the previous 0-3 loss to Manchester City, but also put Mourinho on the fire. Pile and bake.

Some Spanish media even immediately asserted that Mourinho was likely to be fired.

When Gao Han, who was far away in Manchester, received the news, he was shocked.

When Real Madrid faced Barcelona, ​​it was relatively acceptable to lose. After all, it didn't matter if they were not as good as others. But losing by five goals was a bit outrageous. Moreover, Mourinho seemed helpless throughout the game and was unable to stop it. The team failed miserably.

After the game, almost all of Spain attacked Mourinho.

Losing first to Manchester City and then to Barcelona, ​​losing eight goals and scoring zero goals in two games, is absolutely unacceptable.

But Mourinho was as tough as ever in interviews with the media, saying that the team's loss was not the end of the world.

Just when everyone thought that even if Mourinho would not die this time, he would at least shed his skin, Real Madrid chairman Florentino publicly expressed his support for coach Mourinho in an interview with the media. Austria, and promised all Real Madrid fans that the team will transfer and recruit during the winter break to enhance the team's strength.

Once Florentino's interview was revealed, it immediately triggered a huge response throughout Spanish football.

No one expected that Mourinho's position as coach would not be affected, but his status within the team would actually be improved. Florentino gave him great trust and support. This is simply unbelievable. .

According to Real Madrid’s mouthpiece Aspen, Real Madrid will introduce midfielders during the winter break. The targets include Roma’s De Rossi, Porto’s Moutinho, Juventus’ Felipe Melo, Hoffenheim's Gustavo and Bayern Munich's Schweinsteiger, among others, are Real Madrid's long-rumored targets.

At the same time, Aspen also revealed that Real Madrid still has not given up its pursuit of Arsenal captain Cesc Fabregas.

"Among Real Madrid's many targets, De Rossi is the defensive midfielder that Florentino has always wanted, but Roma's attitude is very tough, and De Rossi himself has no intention of actively asking to leave the team, so Real Madrid It will be difficult to convince the Italian international to join."

"The same situation also occurs with the two superstars of Bayern Munich's Schweinsteiger and Arsenal's Cesc Fabregas."

"These three players are all top midfielders in Europe, and they all fit in with Real Madrid's team planning. However, it is very difficult to get them, especially in the winter transfer market. In just over a month, it is very difficult to get them." Let Real Madrid complete such a major transfer negotiation."

Therefore, media analysis believes that Real Madrid’s targets will be Moutinho, Felipe Melo and Gustavo. These three players were also submitted to Mourinho when he coached Real Madrid. The team's signing list.

But at the same time that the media revealed Real Madrid's signing list, Marca once again published explosive news.

Atletico Madrid, which has not performed satisfactorily this season, will introduce French midfielder Schneiderlin from Chinatown for a high price of 30 million euros.

"Diego Simeone admires this French player who is both offensive and defensive, and believes that he can greatly improve Atletico Madrid's midfield competitiveness. In view of the good relationship between the two teams, coupled with the team's preparations for the construction of a new stadium, Due to financial needs, Chinatown is also willing to sell players to Atletico Madrid, for which the Sheets will pay a transfer fee of 30 million euros."

The media generally believes that Chinatown has performed very well in La Liga this season. After selling Schneiderlin, the team is likely to conduct internal digging, including Ander Herrera, Koke and Isco. Local players will get more playing opportunities.

However, neither Atletico Madrid nor Chinatown refused to provide an explanation or clarification on this transfer rumor, which also made Schneiderlin's transfer confusing.
