Chapter 78 We Want to Win the Championship

In the cheers of Deportivo fans at the Riazor Stadium, Chang Sheng turned his gaze back to Zlatan Ibrahimovic who was sitting on the bench.

The Swede sat on the bench, watching the pitch, his face expressionless.

No one knows what he is thinking.

Chang Sheng didn't bother to guess what he was thinking, so he walked up to him and said to him, "Go warm up, young man. It's time to prove you."

Ibrahimovic glanced at Chang Sheng, without any nonsense, got up, took off his coat, and ran to the warm-up area.

Chang Sheng turned around again and continued to look at the court.

Five minutes later, Zlatan Ibrahimovic reappeared in front of him.

Chang Sheng still had no nonsense, just said to him: "We are one goal behind, but I don't want to lose, so I let you play, do you understand?"

Ibrahimovic glanced at the court and nodded: "Understood, if you don't want to lose, you have to rely on me."

"Ha, then prove it to me."

Soon Ibrahimovic played and replaced Villa, who was in a mediocre state in this game.

When Ibrahimovic played, the commentator Moen specifically mentioned why this player changed from the main force before to the current substitute.

In the end, he said: "At the critical moment of the team, the Swedish kid came back into battle, but he seemed to have some conflicts with Chang before. I don't know if he can do his best for Chang at this time-to be honest, I am very impressed. I doubt it. After all, even if Valencia loses to Deportivo this time, it’s not a big deal..."

※※※

The voice just fell. Ibrahimovic got the football on the pitch. In the face of the opponent's pressing, he used his technique and body to protect the football, and then sent the football to the space.

Mendieta then finished with a quality shot from distance just outside the box, forcing a brilliant save from Deportivo Molina to give Valencia a corner.

"Huh?" Moen was surprised, "Ibrahimovic didn't stick the ball, but passed the football quickly... This is really strange-if he did the same in the game against Barcelona If you play, how can you be often replaced?"

Chang Sheng saw Ibrahimovic's action off the court,

I couldn't help laughing either.

Although this is an action, the first touch of the ball after playing. A trivial detail. But Chang Sheng saw what he wanted to see from this detail.

Ibrahimovic really didn't want to be a personal hero this time.

In fact, in the current situation, if he succeeds as a lone hero. He must be famous.

But he chose not to.

This shows that he really puts the team first.

Chang Sheng breathed a sigh of relief.

Ibrahimovic will be known as a ball bully in the future, and it will be very difficult to deal with.

But now he is still too young after all...

If he is tougher, he can only bow his head and surrender.

※※※

After Zlatan Ibrahimovic came on the field, Valencia's offense changed again.

In terms of technology, Villa is indeed not as good as Ibrahimovic. The Swede's skills are almost innate, and he innately knows what to do in this situation.

When the team's offense is deadlocked, Ibrahimovic's role is greater than that of Villa.

Because Ibrahimovic can use his skills to take the football out, or use his skills to protect the football and wait for his teammates to run to a better position. Pass again.

This is why Chang Sheng would rather endure Ibrahimovic's bad temper than buy Ibrahimovic.

He's a guy who can change the tide of battle with his skills.

In La Liga, it is especially suitable.

His technical ability, even in La Liga, which is known for its delicate footwork, is among the best. Not to mention his brilliant imagination.

Under the winning tactics, players are actually allowed to play freely within a certain range, so it just suits Ibrahimovic. But the premise is that the team's offensive fluency cannot be destroyed. In the game against Barcelona, ​​Ibrahimovic obviously destroyed the team's fluency.

And now when Valencia's offense encounters obstacles and requires offensive fluency. His footwork can bring such changes to the team. He can make a pool of stagnant water flow again.

When Zlatan Ibrahimovic played, Valencia's offense became significantly more threatening.

Coupled with the activeness of Aimar and Guardiola, Valencia's offense has obviously become smoother.

Ibrahimovic was on the court before, but Valencia's offensive was not smooth, so Changsheng replaced him.

Now that he was replaced, Valencia's offense became smooth again.

It's really embarrassing.

※※※

Ten minutes after Zlatan Ibrahimovic returned to the pitch, Valencia struck again in the 83rd minute.

Before, it was a short pass of about 15 meters, but this time Guardiola suddenly sent a through ball with a length of 30 meters!

The football flew past Aimar's side, and Aimar tried his best to stretch his legs but couldn't reach the football.

Just when everyone thought Guardiola's pass was wrong, the football suddenly appeared at Ibrahimovic's feet.

Because of this pass, it exceeded the expectations of the opponent Deportivo. So when Ibrahimovic received the ball, none of the Deportivo players thought of it.

Then Ibrahimovic didn't pass the ball, but turned around and dribbled the ball into the penalty area.

It was only at this time that Deportivo's defenders suddenly realized that they had made a mistake.

So swarmed towards Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

But to their surprise, Ibrahimovic did not shoot himself, but passed the football directly!

The football fell to the feet of the fast horse Vicente who inserted it from the wing 1

And because Deportivo's attention was on Zlatan Ibrahimovic, there was absolutely no one marking Vicente.

Chang Sheng's mad dog tactics are basically like this. After a series of inversions, football came to a position that no one expected, and that position was completely devoid of opposing defenders. Teammates running into position are all they need to do...they just have to shoot!

of course there are exceptions.

The exception is that now Vicente did not shoot, but sent a very tricky pass!

The football flew close to the ground and passed between the Deportivo goalkeeper Molina and the defender!

Goalkeeper Molina completely defended the front foot, and placed Vicente's direct shot. So when she found out that Vicente was passing, his reaction was a bit slow, and then he fell to the ground trying to block the pass. But no football.

Because Vicente's fax is very fast!

It is not an exaggeration to say that it was a shot, but it just missed the target.

Molina didn't touch the football, and Deportivo's defenders didn't dare to stretch their feet. This kind of passing. As long as they stretch their feet, it is basically an oolong.

So they can only watch the football pass in front of them.

Then I saw Mendieta, who was wearing a Valencia jersey, appear on the football route, stretched his legs... the football was hit into the goal!

※※※

"L!! Mendieta! Mendieta! Gaizka Mendieta! Valencia's captain! He saved the team at the last moment! In the 84th minute, Valencia equalized the score!!" The narrator Moen roared.

The roar wafted over the Rizoya Stadium, and the Deportivo fans who were still in high spirits before were stunned—football...is it so easy to enter the goal?

It's just a few passes...

Some of them could not accept this result.

Mendieta, who scored the goal, turned and pounced on Ibrahimovic who was on the road, hugged her, and then pointed to Vicente who passed the ball to him.

"Come celebrate!!"

Three people huddled together.

※※※

When Rudy Gonzalez off the field saw this scene, he stepped forward and said to Chang Sheng: "It seems that you have tamed that wild horse."

Chang Sheng turned around and shrugged at him: "It's just a game, it's still very early!"

He wasn't trying to be cool, and it was.

He wouldn't think this one came off the bench. Ibrahimovic performed well, even if he was convinced of himself.

The so-called know people know the face but not the heart. But he is well aware of Ibrahimovic's virtues.

It might be okay to be young now, but when he gets older, has more experience, and has more achievements. His ambition could no longer be concealed.

Until then……

By then, he would have been sold by himself, right?

"But anyway, being able to get out of the Riazor Stadium, I think we should celebrate it." Rudy Gonzalez opened his arms to Changsheng.

Chang Sheng rolled his eyes: "The emotions are gone!"

"What do you do with so much!" He saved Chang Sheng, "So far, we are still undefeated!"

※※※

Rudy Gonzalez is right, so far. Valencia remains surprisingly unbeaten.

The final result of this game was that Valencia tied Deportivo with 2:2 in the away game.

Although it was thrilling in the end, although he did not win, he only scored one point...

Although there are various reasons and regrets.

But one thing is very clear and certain, that is, Valencia was not defeated by Deportivo in this game as everyone expected before the game.

In the ten rounds of the league, Valencia won 12 and drew 4. They are now the only team in La Liga that has not lost.

If you count other games.

They only lost to the Celtics in the away game, but they won the penalty shootout again, so it is really hard to say who will win and who will lose in this game.

Before the start of the season, when Valencia absolutely hired Chang Sheng as the head coach, not many people were optimistic about Chang Sheng's prospects in Valencia, because he lacked experience, lacked prestige, lacked fame - he lacked everything that could be lacked thing.

For a new coach who has only coached a rural team like Getafe for one season, it is doubtful whether he can control a big ship like Valencia. In particular, Valencia's locker room is known as "the most complicated locker room in Spain". Does Chang Sheng have the ability to persuade those famous stars to listen to him willingly?

There are too many question marks hanging over Chang Sheng's head.

Some media even said that Chang Sheng may not be able to persist for three months before being dismissed by Valencia's new chairman Otti.

But now, Valencia tops the list with 12 wins, 4 draws and 0 losses, with 40 points.

Their aggressive aura made many people start to think about such a question - this season, Valencia will not really win the championship, right?

They guessed right.

At the post-match press conference, Chang Sheng bared his fangs to the media.

"Unbeaten in 14 rounds? The situation is very good? Of course, I don't think there is anything to be surprised about, because in my opinion, it is quite normal for a team whose goal is to win the league championship!"

PS, today is five changes, because one is for the new leader Lanyueぁ Demon Dragon who was born yesterday.

As for Mu En, the lord who was born in the early hours of this morning, please allow me to add more tomorrow...

There are really not many manuscripts left. Although there were only four of them in the last three days of last month, I didn't write much.... . )
