Chapter 86 I Will Never Lose!

"Nine points?"

In the chairman's office at the Calderon Stadium, when Old Hill heard the result, he jumped up from his seat in surprise, his face full of surprise and admiration.

"Haha, yes, nine points, Dad, we are only nine points behind!"

Little Hill even grinned from ear to ear, making no effort to hide his excitement and agitation.

From being behind by 19 points to now being 9 points behind, in just 7 rounds, Atlético de Madrid was chasing like a rocket, and even caught up to ninth place in the league in one breath, only 9 points behind third place.

There are only 28 rounds now, and there are still 14 rounds before the end of the league. The gap of nine points is no longer out of reach.

Even Old Hill, who was used to strong winds and waves, couldn't help being stunned when he heard the news.

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

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

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

Little Hill was able to understand his father's mood best. He walked to his father's side, patted his shoulder lightly, bent down, and said softly, "Dad, we still have a chance!"

This sentence made Old Hill suddenly raise his head again, looking at his son, then at Cerezo, and then at Paul Futre.

Each of the three confidantes seemed to be very confident and full of fighting spirit.

This is completely different from the decadence and depression when the team fell into the relegation zone two months ago.

Who would have thought, who would have thought?

Alpine!

he made it!

"He is really an incredible person!" Old Hill exhaled and said in admiration.

Turning the tide at the critical moment, Gao Han's performance is absolutely shocking.

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

Xiao Hill's words immediately made both Cerezo and Paul Futre nod in unison.

Why didn't Old Hill know about it?

"But he's still too young after all."

The old man's regretful words made everyone speechless again.

Twenty-three years old, this is the biggest obstacle for Gaohan.

Old Hill looked at the three confidants in front of him, "I understand what you mean. You don't support Aragones, and I know it too, but I dare say that if there is only one person in the world who can save Atletico Madrid, then It must be Aragones!"

The relationship between this Spanish coach and Atletico Madrid is not something ordinary people can understand.

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

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

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

"Gao Han is amazing, but it's too early to say anything now!"

Old Hill has been in the Spanish political and business circles for many years, and he has also been in the football world for more than ten years. Who hasn't seen him?

Professional football is a vanity fair. Every year, there are many amazing rookies emerging, but how many can persist until the end? How many people are like meteors, shining brightly in an instant, and annihilating the crowd in an instant?

From the Community Invitational Tournament, to the second team, and now to the first team, Gao Han has always maintained a winning streak, and his performance can be said to be eye-catching, but he is indeed still young, and Old Hill is still not at ease.

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

Little Hill, Cerezo, and Paul Futre also knew that Old Hill was conservative.

But this can’t be helped. First, he is really old and can’t stand the trouble. Second, Zambrano and Marcos Alonso are indeed cheating, leaving him with a shadow.

In the final analysis, in a word, Gao Han has not won enough!

You know, his competitor is Aragones!

"What's the current situation of the team?" Old Hill asked again.

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

"Um?"

"Before it was Zoran Niguez, Oscar Mena and Ibić. This time Kiko was also injured, and the old captain Aguilera was also injured. The current situation of the team is not optimistic."

Injuries are the worst enemy of any professional team.

After Atletico Madrid's relegation, there was a serious brain drain. The lineup was already thin, and now there are so many injuries. It is really not optimistic. If it is not handled well, the team's good momentum may be broken.

"What did Gao Han say?" Old Hill asked with concern.

"He said he could get over it!"

After hearing this, Old Hill's eyes flashed with praise.

From the night when he took over the first team, Gao Han's character has been very appetizing to him.

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

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

Cerezo also nodded repeatedly.

When the soldiers are in use, they hate less.

When Gao Han took over, the consensus of the management was to make up for the shortcomings of the team's central defender, and the rest will wait until the end of the season and the new coach takes office.

But now the situation is completely different.

The team has already caught up, ninth in La Liga, only nine points behind the third place, and it is entirely possible to catch up.

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

If Gao Han had been given more trust and support at that time, allowing him to introduce one or two more players, the team's current situation would definitely be much better.

And Gao Han really had nothing to choose, he didn't blame the management at all, he only said that he could overcome it.

But the more he is like this, the more ashamed the management feels.

"He has now promoted Gabi, a young player from the second team, to the first team. He has played two games and performed pretty well, but he is only seventeen years old."

Paul Futre is the technical director, and he also understands the current situation of the team, especially the situation facing Gao Han.

And the reason why he said so much is to remind Old Hill that the team is in a very difficult situation. Even if Gao Han loses at this time, it is not because of his ability, but because the team has too many injuries.

Old Hill also became worried, "Can you find a way to introduce players?"

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

"Free agent?" Old Hilton was also helpless.

It's March, where to find free agents?

Those who are capable have already voted for other teams and got contracts.

As for the rest, I am afraid that they are not strong enough and cannot meet the requirements of Atletico Madrid.

"Maybe, there will be one in South America, and I will release the news."

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

"Oh, by the way, we have received a notification from the Football Association." Paul Futre suddenly remembered.

"Notification from the Football Association?"

Both the Hill father and son and Cerezo frowned immediately, feeling ominous.

"Well, the Copa del Rey schedule has been confirmed. The first round will start next Wednesday. We will be hosts first and then guests."

The three of them cried out inwardly.

"I'm going to fuck, come sooner or later, come to the King's Cup at this time?" Xiao Xie yelled directly.

When the team was going smoothly, the Copa del Rey was forced to postpone because it had to accommodate Barcelona's European schedule.

Well now, Barcelona took their time, and Atletico Madrid suffered a lot of injuries.

What's the matter?

Cerezo waved his hand at Hill, signaling him not to get too excited, "Paul, can we also apply for an extension?"

"I'm afraid it won't work." Paul Futre shook his head.

"Barcelona had to postpone the match because they were going to play in Europe, and the schedule was too tight, but we..."

Atletico Madrid only plays once a week now, and the Copa del Rey is played in the middle of the week, which is completely eligible.

For the sake of fairness, the two semi-finals of the Copa del Rey are scheduled to be held at the same time, one day apart, and the TV broadcast time is staggered. Therefore, the Football Association will not allow Atletico Madrid to apply for a postponement on the grounds of too many injuries.

If you really want to agree, then the other three teams won't fall apart?

"Then what should we do now?" Little Hill asked very depressed.

But no one present could answer.

They really have no choice but to hope that Gao Han's magic can continue.

But this time, what he encountered was not a second-rate coach such as Victor Fernandez, but Spain's top coach, Zhisou, Luis Aragones!

…………

…………

"Just received a fax from the club and the Copa del Rey schedule is out."

The coaching staff at Mahadanda Sports City also received a fax soon.

After hearing Sergio Garcia's words, Gao Han frowned.

I really come here for whatever I am afraid of.

Sure enough, I answered the sentence, the house leak happened to rain all night!

But at this time, anyone can panic, but he can't.

Because he is the head coach of the team!

"When?" Gao Han asked lightly.

His composure really calmed both Cantarero and Garcia.

"Next Wednesday."

Gao Han nodded, there is still more than a week, but there will be a league game on the weekend, and the opponent is Elche.

This team is currently ranked 17th and is also fighting for relegation. It will be a hard battle.

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

Even, in many cases, relegation teams will be more difficult than championship teams, because they will risk everything to fight with you.

Once the opponent doesn't even have to give up his name, it's really...

Of course, it is not yet the critical relegation stage, so Elche will not be too desperate.

"How is the team doing now?" Gao Han looked at Cantarero.

Knowing the urgency of the situation, Cantarero immediately replied: "I have learned from Dr. Belleron before that both Zoran Nicos and Ibić can participate in training, but the state may need to be adjusted, but..."

"But what?"

"Aguilera's old injury is troublesome."

Professional players are the same as soldiers, it is common for them to get injured.

But sometimes, the injuries he suffered when he was young did not heal quickly, leaving behind hidden dangers, which broke out when he was older and his body function declined. Even after some professional players retired, they could not do without the medicine jar for the rest of their lives.

There are too many veterans, and this is too much trouble.

"I know." Gao Han knew it in his heart.

"Alpine." Cantarero hesitated.

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

Cantarero thought for a while, "Perhaps, we should consider giving up the two-line battle."

"You mean... the Copa del Rey?"

"Real Mallorca is very strong. They currently rank fourth in La Liga. They have been unbeaten in the past six rounds, with four wins and two draws. They defeated Deportivo and Real Madrid at home and drew Barcelona away. They are in very good condition."

Aragones lived up to the name of the wise man. After the winter break, Real Mallorca's performance became better and better.

Especially in the last few rounds, everyone thought that they had encountered strong opponents one after another, but who would have thought that they would win them all.

Just judging from the player lineup, Atletico Madrid can't help Real Mallorca.

Not to mention, the Sheets Legion is now full of wounded.

But Gao Han shook his head, stood up, and stared at Cantarero without blinking.

"Carlos, I repeat, I will not give up a single game."

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

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

"Also, I will never lose!"

"Even if he is Aragones!"

Temporary issues, update in advance.
