Super Marshal

September 9, 2000, evening.

Pollarde Shero, Ebayou Stadium.

This is an extremely crude stadium.

There are no electronic timekeeping scoreboards, no barbed wire fences, not even the bare minimum of stands.

There is only the bad turf, and there are fans standing on the sidelines who can be counted on two hands.

This is the home field of the semi-professional team Shiro.

But Gao Han still didn't dare to be careless.

At the beginning of the game, he used the three-star offensive card and the three-star assault card in one go, and acted on the two players of Torres and Villa at the same time, requiring the team to aggressively attack.

As a result, in the eighth minute, Atlético de Madrid's second team took the lead in breaking the goal of the Sierra team by Villa.

This undoubtedly opened a very good start for the game.

After that, the game has been safely under Gao Han's control. In the 31st and 78th minutes, Torres and Gabi scored a goal respectively.

The score was finally locked at three to zero!

Atletico Madrid's second team won two consecutive victories without any surprises!

On the way back to Madrid after the team won, Gao Han received a call from Mattayana.

…………

…………

"what?"

Gao Han's face was full of astonishment, and he couldn't believe his ears.

But on the other end of the phone, Matayana, who was far away at the Calderon Stadium in Madrid, repeated what he had just said on the phone again.

"The first team lost again!"

This time, Gao Han heard clearly.

"What's going on?" Gao Han was a little puzzled.

Logically speaking, Atlético de Madrid can completely crush Huelva, and it is a home game. Under the witness of tens of thousands of fans, how could they lose?

"The whole game was chaotic."

Mattayana sighed on the phone, "Zambrano attacked after the start and suppressed Huelva, but he failed to break through the opponent's goal. In the 35th minute, he was caught by the opponent. One chance, successful counterattack."

"After that, Atletico Madrid became more and more anxious, and even in the 83rd minute, Salva was sent off with two yellow cards."

Gao Han smiled wryly, Atlético Madrid is in big trouble now!

The two-game losing streak at the beginning is undoubtedly a blow to the Sheets who want to return to La Liga in one go.

"What is even more unexpected is that after the game, Zambrano was interviewed by the media and publicly criticized the players, thinking that some players did not do their best at all, and they were responsible for the Atletico Madrid jersey."

Gao Han could only shake his head after hearing this.

At such a time, Zambrano actually chose to use this move. I really don't know what to say!

It's just looking for a dead end!

"Two consecutive losses, the team is currently at the bottom of the standings, Zambrano is in danger!"

Gao Han did not respond to Matyana's words.

"By the way, how is your score?" Mattayana asked with concern.

"Three to zero, there is no danger!"

Only then did Matyana chuckle twice, somewhat comforted.

Gao Han hung up the phone with Mattayana, and Cantarero and the players, who had been listening quietly for a long time, looked over immediately.

"What's going on?" Cantarero asked with concern.

"The first team lost again!" Gao Han replied with a wry smile.

"Zero to one, still unable to attack for a long time, was counterattacked and lost the ball!"

In a word, the air around suddenly seemed to condense.

Although the first team and the second team are separated, in fact, everyone knows that the poor performance of the first team will not do them any good.

Even if the first team continues to be so turbulent, they will suffer accordingly.

Who doesn't want their team to play in the top league?

At least, there is still hope, isn't it?

"Zambrano is going to die!" Cantarero let out a long sigh, full of embarrassment.

The two-game losing streak at the beginning, especially in the second round, was actually lost to Huelva, which is absolutely unforgivable.

"It's all his own fault. With his personality, it will happen sooner or later." Gao Leng shook his head with a smile.

It’s a bit of an understatement to say that, but who’s to say it isn’t?

Everyone around was silent.

Regarding the current status of the team, they are indeed a little hesitant.

Everyone originally thought that after the team was relegated, they should be able to try their best and rebound from the bottom.

Unexpectedly, a two-game losing streak caused the shadow of the team's turbulence last season to strike again.

In this silence, Gao Han's cell phone rang again.

Caller ID, Lin Xia.

"Gao Han, is your game over?"

As soon as the phone was connected, Lin Xia's voice came immediately, with a concerned tone.

"ended."

"Won?"

"Well, three to zero, there is no danger!"

"Huh, that's all right!" Lin Xia seemed relieved.

Gao Han smiled slightly, it felt good to be cared about.

No, after the game, no one from the club management called to ask, but Lin Xia and Mattayana were more concerned.

"I watched the live broadcast of the game just now, and your first team lost again."

"Well, I also received the message."

Lin Xia smiled, "It's good that you win anyway."

Gao Han also laughed.

…………

…………

Atletico Madrid's two-game losing streak has greatly affected the atmosphere of the team.

The entire Mahadanda Sports City seemed to be shrouded in gloom.

Even the fans who like to watch the team's training on weekdays have decreased a lot.

Everyone, from the head coach and team leader to the most ordinary employees, is in danger and becomes extra cautious and sensitive.

Fortunately, the training areas of the second team and the first team were separated by barbed wire. In addition, Gao Han and Zambrano had never been on the same page, so there was no communication at all, so the second team was not affected much.

After the game, I should rest when I should rest, and I should train as I usually do, and it has not changed.

But the first team has changed a lot.

Although it is far away, Gao Han can still hear the roar of Zambrano from the training ground of the first team.

It wasn't as loud, powerful, and confident as before, but he was still roaring with all his might.

It was as if this roar could help him maintain his final majesty.

If the Spanish media were merciful to Zambrano when they lost in the first round, then this time, they went all out and showed no mercy.

Almost all the media believe that with Atletico Madrid's overall strength, it shouldn't be the way it is now.

The disastrous away defeat in the first round could still be considered an accident, but the home loss to Huelva in the second round absolutely shouldn't have happened.

Aspen, known as the mouthpiece of the rival Real Madrid, even directly criticized Zambrano, believing that he should be fully responsible for the team's two-game losing streak and should take the blame and resign.

Gao Han's good friend Matyana also wrote a column comment on the Marca newspaper. Although he did not attack Zambrano in a down-to-earth manner, he also believed that in the previous two rounds, Zambrano's The formation of troops is debatable.

It is worth mentioning that at the end of the comment, Mattayana used a paragraph to mention the second team with two consecutive victories.

However, it is not clear how many people can notice.

In the face of overwhelming accusations and criticism from the media, Atletico Madrid's management also stood up.

Technical director Paul Futre said in an interview with the media that the team still supports Zambrano.

"We firmly believe that he can quickly adjust and lead the team out of adversity."

As for the reporter's question about how the management will respond in case Zambrano loses again in the third round of the league, Paul Futre said that there is currently no plan in this regard.

But on the second day after Paul Futre's interview, the Spanish media immediately broke the news that Atletico Madrid had begun to prepare a second-hand plan, which was to fire Zambrano.

There is also a candidate for the head coach to replace Zambrano, and that is the former Sevilla coach, Marcos Alonso.

This player has played for Atletico Madrid and Barcelona successively. He started his coaching career at Atletico Madrid and served as an assistant coach of the first team. In 1995, he took over the newly promoted Vallecano from La Liga. He led the team to relegation and became famous in the first battle. .

After that, he moved to his hometown team Racing Santander. He performed well in the first season and led the relegation team to the thirteenth place in La Liga. However, his performance declined in the second season and he was dismissed midway.

After class, he took over Sevilla, which was relegated to La Liga, and led the team to La Liga in the first season, but in the second season, that is, last season, he failed to help Sevilla succeed in relegation , and was eventually relegated, and he was dismissed for this reason.

Marcos Alonso is currently at home and can take over the team at any time.

The media spread it well, and even the candidates for the replacement came out, so people couldn't help but believe it.

This obviously affected Zambrano as well.

At least, Gao Han feels that since the media broke out about Marcos Alonso, Zambrano has become more irritable on the training ground.

In a training session on Thursday afternoon, he even had a heated altercation with the team's center Salva.

The head coach accused the players of making such a stupid mistake in the final stage of the game, and received a red card for nothing, which made them unable to participate in the next game.

But Salva blamed the coach's formation and believed that the team's tactics did not give him enough support.

The two sides were arguing red-faced on the training ground, and almost everyone in the sports city heard it.

In the end, if it wasn't for the players and the coaching staff to separate them, the two might have fought.

While the incident quickly subsided and first-team leader Carlos Pena quickly stepped in to stabilize the two sides, the whole thing still left everyone uneasy.

When the team's performance is ideal, everything goes smoothly and the problems will be covered up.

But once the team's performance is poor, all the contradictions will quickly surface.

For what happened to the first team, Gao Han can only learn from it, but there is nothing he can do.

He is the head coach of the second team, and he only cares about the second team.

After finishing the second round, Atlético de Madrid's second team returned to their home stadium, the Espino Stadium, to face the visiting Avila in the third round of the league.

Like Shero, Avila is also a semi-professional team that was newly promoted in the Second League this season.

But even so, Gao Han still didn't dare to be careless.

Because he is soberly aware that Gao Han can't afford to lose more than Zambrano!

At least, Zambrano is a famous local coach, but what about his alpine?

It's just a fledgling rookie!

Playing at home, the strength is dominant, coupled with the blessing of the coaching system skill card, Gao Han led Atletico Madrid's second team at the Espino Stadium, relying on Torres and Villa's two goals scored twice, four-to-one Beat Avila at home and win three consecutive victories!

During the game, teenagers such as Torres, Villa, Harvey Alonso, Antonio Lopez and Gabi continued their excellent performance in the previous two rounds and won the unanimous affirmation of the fans.

The team's ferocious offensive and dominant performance also received rave applause from the fans.

At the same time, the first team of Atlético de Madrid played an away game against the newly promoted Ma Hahn of La Liga.
