Chapter 52 Let You Down
The media flocked to praise the victorious team. It is not clear whether it is intentional, but there are indeed many people who hope that the young Lazio will lose their composure because of the media's praise, and thus lose the game.
And among those people is the media.
So after the national team match day, the media continued to praise Lazio players, but this time what they praised was that many Lazio players had the strength to be selected for the national team. On matchday, recruit these Lazio players into the national team.
This is exactly the appetite of those young players in Lazio.
If there is no that dog, the Lazio players probably really have no intention of training well, and they are looking forward to the call of the national team.
But those who hope that Lazio will be killed must not have imagined that Chang Sheng can solve this problem with a dog.
※ ※ ※
On November 20th, in the twelfth round of the league, Lazio challenged Sampdoria away.
Sampdoria is considered a mid-range team, ranking eighth after eleven rounds of the league.
Because it is an away game, so to be honest, this game is not easy to play.
Coupled with the two-week break in the middle, it is hard to say how the players are.
In addition, the flattery and praise from the media will definitely have an impact on Lazio, so this game is not good or bad for Lazio!
Before the game, Chang Sheng expressed his worry and dissatisfaction with the media's blindly touting Lazio.
"We are not Juventus, Milan duo, so praise us, in my opinion, is not a good thing. I hope the media can be realistic, Lazio has just started, there are still many problems to be solved. In my opinion, these praises are now Kill us!"
Chang Sheng's tone was harsh, and he hoped that the media would stop glorifying Lazio.
But no media will follow suit.
They're even more energetic—what? Changsheng hates us praising Lazio? Okay, let's continue to praise! Anything that always wins hates. We are all going to do it! We will do anything that Changsheng won't let us do!
So before the game against Sampdoria, the media were overwhelmingly optimistic about Lazio,
I think that although it is an away game, Lazio will definitely be able to beat Sampdoria.
Even Sampdoria's head coach Novellino couldn't stand it anymore.
He also felt that the media's praise of Lazio was abnormal.
"If my team was praised by the media like that, it would be a disaster in my opinion. I would refuse to allow the players to be interviewed by the media and protect them by staying away from the media."
In the pre-match press conference, Sampdoria coach Walter Novellino said.
This embarrasses the media.
They can't say, "We're doing this to help you win!"
As a result, my kindness was not accepted by others...
You deserve to lose!
You deserve it for being number eight!
※ ※ ※
In the game against Sampdoria, unlike those giants whose teams have many players participating in the national team match day, Lazio can send almost all the main players to play.
The strength gap between the two teams is actually quite large.
In the end, Lazio beat Sampdoria 2:0 in the away game!
Win six consecutive victories in the league!
certainly. That's not the point. The point is the process of the game.
Lazio's players didn't look tired or distracted during the game.
The scenes that those who praised Lazio hoped to see such as "Lazio players are proud and underestimated the enemy" and "Lazio players were tired and lax" did not appear.
On the contrary, Lazio's players are very active and hardworking. There is no sign of them being exaggerated by the media.
This surprised many people-has the hearts of young Lazio players matured to such a terrifying level? Can you win without pride and lose without discouragement?
This is impossible... After all, they are just a group of young people in their early twenties. Let alone them, even many veterans in their thirties will inevitably make such mistakes. How did Lazio do it?
Full of questions, the media gathered in the mixed area after the game. Interview every Lazio player who passes by.
Their questions were all "what keeps you guys motivated so high".
In this regard, the Lazio players unanimously said: "Our new coach!"
But who exactly did it and how did it happen, the Lazio players will not talk about it. No matter how familiar the reporter is, they don't say anything.
It's not that Chang Sheng asked them to keep it secret, Chang Sheng never made such a request. It's that they don't want to say it themselves. Because it's too embarrassing to talk about it-they were chased by a dog, and they worked hard like drugged in training...
Reporters did not get satisfactory answers from Lazio's players, who mobbed Changsheng in the post-match press conference.
"What made them work so hard?" Chang Sheng looked at the reporters in the audience. I find this question very strange. "Isn't that normal? As a professional player, whenever and wherever, they should keep their spirits high, train hard and play hard. There's no question about it. There's no reason, if there must be any reason. That's a sense of honor and a desire to succeed that's built into them."
Chang Sheng's answer made many reporters boo him in their hearts.
"Pretend! Pretend again!"
Finally, a reporter couldn't help standing up and asking: "But when the media are so touting, it is not easy to keep them calm. So how did you do it?"
As soon as I asked this question, many people glared at me: Damn it! If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb! Have you sold teammates like this?
Chang Sheng laughed loudly, and the laughter echoed at the press conference and everyone's heart.
Chang Sheng really laughed happily, because he had never seen such a stupid reporter!
He actually spoke the truth!
He laughed for a full minute, and every second of this minute, the faces of the reporters became uglier.
Then he stopped smiling, just like the face-changing of Sichuan opera, he suddenly said to the reporters with a dark face: "I think there is something wrong with this sudden flattery, look, you don't blame yourself. I know some people hope that We lost. But sorry, whoever expected us to lose, we let you down."
As for how he kept the team's fighting spirit and focus, he still didn't give an answer.
※ ※ ※
The reporters are still quite strong. After two days, they finally found out the secret of why Chang Sheng can keep the players' attention and not be arrogant or impetuous.
The secret is a dog!
Yes, a dog!
This is what the Lazio players call the "new coach"...
In fact, the Lazio players did show slack in training, and Chang Sheng and the coaching staff really had a headache for this.
It looks like. The media's plan almost succeeded.
But the next thing is God's turning point and big reversal!
Chang Sheng got a dog from somewhere!
He actually has a dog as the team's new coach to teach the players how to train!
Chased by a vicious dog, apparently no one dared to cheat.
The dog was only on the team for two days. It completely cured the players' laziness.
Because Chang Sheng said that if he sees anyone who is lazy in training in the future, then their "new coach" will reappear in front of them and train with them.
Under such a threat, who would dare to be lazy?
So the media rang the nickname Chang Sheng got in Spain.
"tyrant"!
Letting a dog bite one's own players... This is really an act of a "tyrant"!
※ ※ ※
When the inside story of Lazio's "secret special training" was exposed. Immediately aroused the attention of the whole of Italy.
Some people called on the players union to intervene in this matter and punish Chang Sheng severely, because this kind of training has the risk of harming players.
The Society for the Protection of Small Animals also came forward to accuse Chang Sheng of using dogs to do inhumane things, which is forcing dogs to hurt humans and making humans hate dogs even more.
These criticisms don't even need Chang Sheng to come forward, and someone will naturally defend him.
The first person to stand up and speak for Chang Sheng was Chang Sheng's most loyal "running dog" Jose Passarella. "I don't think it's going to do us any harm? Obinna is very smart, he's a good dog, and he looks tough. Nobody was actually hurt, not even scratched... ...None. Those who are worried about being bitten by a dog can try it for themselves. I think even if he peed his pants in fright, he would not actually be bitten..."
Chang Sheng didn't notice it, he was usually serious. Serious Jose Passarella also has such a bad side...
The next person who defended Chang Sheng was the club's chairman Lotito: "We fully trust Chang, and he has gained this trust with practical actions. Then it will not disappear easily. Use dogs to train players? I have to say this idea That's so creative... When he asked me to introduce him to a dog trainer, I at least thought he was going to get a dog, and now it turns out that's why I can't be a successful head trainer and he can It's..."
Then the dog trainer Luciano also stood up to speak for Chang Sheng: "Someone questioned my dog? Then he is the biggest idiot in the world! My dog is absolutely docile and obedient, and never bites for no reason, unless you want Killed it! Second, my dog is absolutely smart, he understands every command I give him, and he does what I tell him to do. Third, those organizations in the name of protecting small animals are a bunch of idiots consist of!"
With so many people defending Chang Sheng, Chang Sheng found that he had nothing to say.
So he put his head down and continued with his work.
※ ※ ※
In the middle of the week, Lazio defeated the visiting Heerenveen 1-0 at home and won two consecutive victories in the UEFA Cup group stage.
In the following weekend's league, Chang Sheng replaced all the starting lineups that had played two consecutive games, and used a group of substitutes to challenge Empoli away. Finally defeated the opponent 2:1.
After this game, Lazio's main players, who had a break for a game, started again. They went to Bulgaria to challenge Sofia Levski.
The result was that they defeated Sofia Levski 2-0 in the away game, with three wins and three wins and nine points. With only one round left, Lazio has already qualified ahead of schedule.
The opponents in the same group, CSKA Moscow and Dynamo Bucharest, have four points, and CSKA has no games. Dynamo Bucharest still have one more game, and even if they beat Lazio in the end, they will only have seven points.
Not to mention Heerenveen with two points and Sofia Levski with three points.
Not worth mentioning at all.

ps, the fourth update is over, ask for a monthly pass! .
