Forty High-Level Resignation Letter
tired!
really tired!
The locker room was silent except for the heavy breathing of the players.
Everyone was sweating, and the jerseys they took off were as wet as if they had just been fished out of the washing machine.
With sweat all over his face, he sat there, out of breath.
Anyone can see that they are really working hard.
But the game didn't go as expected.
After scoring a goal, Arsenal reversed the situation and Real Madrid struggled for 20 minutes, but at the last minute of the game, the Gunners broke the goal.
Although it was a penalty kick, it was really not wrong.
Gao Shen was not in a hurry to speak, he set aside time for the players to take a breath, and at the same time perfected his own ideas.
Real Madrid must not sit still in the second half. At this point, they must continue to attack.
The key is how to attack? When do you start attacking?
Just as there was silence in the locker room, Ramos suddenly jumped up from his seat.
Everyone was taken aback by this sudden move, and Gao Shen was also shocked. For fear that Ramos would say something inappropriate at this critical point, he wanted to speak out to stop him.
Unexpectedly, Ramos spoke first.
"I'm sorry!" The Seville teenager lowered his always high head and apologized in public.
"It's my fault. I couldn't stop Henry. His start-up speed was too fast. I couldn't keep up with it at the time. I shot it subconsciously. As a result..."
Elgra also stood up, "Henry started with the ball, in fact, he wanted to cheat a penalty, and we were fooled."
It's hard to say what Henry wanted to do at the time. Maybe he broke through and he kicked the goal, but maybe he was sure from the beginning that even if he couldn't pass, he wanted to earn a penalty.
Worst of all, he also wants to grab a direct free kick from the front of the box.
Everyone was surprised, including Gao Shen.
From joining Real Madrid to now, Ramos has given everyone the impression that a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers and is young and vigorous.
A person who dared to contradict the Brazilian Gang when he first arrived, now admits his mistake.
Gao Shen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time there was a sense of confidence in his heart.
Even Ramos is willing to admit his mistake. The morale of the team tonight, in this state, is really okay!
Gao Shen walked over, patted Elgra on the shoulder, motioned him to sit down, and came to Ramos's side again, grabbed Ramos' shoulders, and the two were side by side, about the same height.
"It's not anyone's fault. If it has to be wrong, it's my fault, the team's fault."
Ramos looked at Gao Shen in surprise.
"You and Ivan have been good enough, I know, you all tried your best."
After Gao Shen pressed Ramos back to his seat, he stood among the players and looked around at the players.
"Not only Sergio and Ivan, but you, everyone here, I know, you did your best, I'm proud of your performance in the first half, and I'm sure the Real Madrid fans are too ."
Real Madrid's objective conditions are there, aging, low level of long-term training, players are not in the state due to various reasons, these are objective facts, and they cannot be changed overnight.
It's really not easy for these players to play like this now.
"But I know more clearly that at this moment, each of you has the same heart as me, full of unwillingness, isn't it?"
Ramos, De La Reid, Felipe, Abeloa... Many players nodded, even Raul, Zidane and Beckham, and they were not reconciled.
After trying everything and finally scoring a goal, the first half was equalized before the end.
Who will be reconciled?
"It's very simple, if you're not reconciled, then in the second half, grab the victory again!" Gao Shen clenched his fists and said through gritted teeth.
At this point in the game, Real Madrid had no choice but to fight to the end.
After slowing down, Gao Shen continued: "Before the team set off for London, I went to the Odalesa district and visited Carlo."
"Believe it or not, I really see him as my teacher, but I'm not here to learn, I'm here to say goodbye to him because I told him if we lose tonight at Highbury , I'm not going back."
Everyone in the locker room raised their heads in disbelief and looked at Gao Shen.
I saw that Gao Shen took out a letter from his pocket, "When I was in Madrid, I had written my resignation letter in advance. If we can't get the right to advance to the quarterfinals tonight, I will end the game. Then hand it out."
Everyone in the audience, from the players to the coaching staff to the staff, focused their attention on the letter in the right hand of Gao Shen, even his best confidant Lucas didn't know the existence of this letter , let alone anyone else.
The whole world knows that if this game is lost, Gao Shen is likely to be dismissed, but it is just a guess.
Now, Gao Shen has shown his determination.
Don't need Real Madrid to fire squid, I fire myself!
"I don't want to play a bitter scene in front of you and win your sympathy, I just want to tell you that my desire to win this game is definitely no less than any of you present, because I bet on me future!"
Everyone in the locker room could feel the weight of those words.
The performance in the first half, even if they lose the game in the end, everyone will understand and forgive them, but Gao Shen will step down from Real Madrid's coaching position, and may even face reckoning.
"I also know that many of you, even now, are still dissatisfied, and still feel that I am not qualified to be the head coach of Real Madrid, and I do not deny this myself, but since fate has brought us to this stage, Since we don't have a choice, let's put aside our previous hatred and fight side by side!"
...
The high-sounding mobilization revived the team's morale and fighting spirit, but how to play in the second half is a big problem.
Real Madrid's situation is in front of everyone, and there is no way to change it.
"We can only attack at the start of the second half and try to get another away goal."
Gao Shen resolutely said that there should be no doubts, because Real Madrid's physical fitness will not last for overtime, and even after 70 minutes, there is no physical fitness to launch an attack, which is an unknown number.
Therefore, if you want to score, you can only bet on the opening.
"It's still like the way we played in the first half. After the opening, we attacked, stabilized our position and rhythm, and pressed Arsenal in the half. Negredo was responsible for containing Senderos, and the ball was mostly passed to Zidane. , he's in charge of getting the ball up front."
"Pay attention to Reyes and Henry on the right, don't press on them, Felipe on the left can move forward appropriately and participate in the attack in the frontcourt."
"In addition, in the first half, I found that when Zidane stepped in, Gilberto Silva would also drop back, and there would be holes in the front of Arsenal's penalty area, which we could exploit."
On the tactical blackboard, Gao Shen slid out of this area at the front of the penalty area and tapped heavily.
Real Madrid's offensive routines were almost touched by Arsenal in the first half of the contest. Wenger will definitely remind the players to minimize fouls and avoid giving Real Madrid a free kick in a good position.
Therefore, Real Madrid must find new points of attack on the offensive end.
When everyone heard Gao Shen's words, they all immediately turned their attention to Graveson.
Gravesson is not a traditional sapper. He is not tall, with a tenacious and brave style, and a sturdy appearance. He looks like a butcher, but his organization and passing are quite good, as well as a good long-range shooting ability.
Everyone naturally feels that when Gao Shen talks about long-range shots, he means Gravesson's back insertion.
But Gao Shen shook his head, "Thomas is from Everton in the Premier League. Wenger is very familiar with him and has always guarded him."
Gravesson himself nodded, no one knew Wenger's targeted deployment better than him.
Not Graveson, who is that?
"Reuben!" Gao Shen pointed to De La Reid, "It's time for us to see your ability to plug in and shoot long distances!"
Everyone in the locker room was taken aback, it turned out to be Delared!
This young player from the second team has only played one derby at Atletico Madrid since he came to the first team. He is diligent and hard-working, and he is afraid of making mistakes. .
Gao Shen actually entrusted such an important task to him now?
Not to mention other people, even Delared himself was flattered and couldn't believe it.
Only Gao Shen knew in his heart that De La Reid became famous by the volley he inserted after one foot.
In his career, he also scored a few long-range goals.
More importantly, Arsenal and Wenger did not pay much attention to him, and even ignored him.
"Don't worry, Reuben, I believe you can do it!"
Gao Shen specially walked in front of Delared, patted his shoulder confidently, and encouraged.
After speaking, Gao Shen applauded vigorously.
"Okay, we will play as we said in the second half. Remember, we have only one goal in this game, and that is to win!"
All the players stood up in unison and shouted loudly, "Okay!"
…………
…………
After the start of the second half, Real Madrid, who breathed a sigh of relief, decisively launched a high-level pressing and pressing towards Arsenal.
Real Madrid's transformation did not surprise Wenger, who made targeted tactical arrangements at half-time.
This allowed Real Madrid to regain the ball very smoothly and suppress Arsenal again, but the scene seemed a bit deadlocked.
After two games, especially after the start of the first half, Real Madrid implemented the team oppression tactic advocated by Gao Shen more in place. Although the players were physically exhausted, the effect was very good.
After adjusting the details a few times in the opening game, Gao Shen saw that the team was on the right track, so he patiently waited for a turnaround.
As a head coach, he has no way to go on the field to replace a player, and he is definitely not as good as a player. The only thing he can do is wait.
There was a stalemate on the scene, but everyone knew that Real Madrid's physical fitness would not last long.
If this wave of offensive attacks at the beginning of the second half cannot be taken down, then Real Madrid will not want to win.
