Prominence in Football Community

"Hey, Gao, did you really say that to the media reporters?" After the training, Simeone kept Gao Zheng. "You say I have the final say?"

Gao Zheng nodded: "Yes, that's what I said."

"This..." Simeone didn't expect Gao Zheng to really say that. He naturally hoped that Gao Zheng would stay. If he could have the final say, he even hoped that Gao Zheng would not participate in the Asian Cup. But he also knew that it was absolutely impossible, not to mention not participating in the Asian Cup, even not participating in the game against Palestine.

That's why he was surprised that Gao Zheng was so reasonable.

Generally speaking, when the club and the national team are at odds, most players will tend to the national team emotionally, and the club will play the role of the bad guy in this.

Unexpectedly, Gao Zheng was so considerate when he was interviewed publicly that he actually said something like "the head coach has the final say".

This made Simeone a little moved and a little unbearable - he knew that after Gao Zheng said this, it might cause a wave of criticism against him in his country, but he didn't need to do it. Gao Zheng was taking the blame for him.

So he said: "Why don't you go back after finishing the Champions League..."

"Alright." Gao Zheng nodded.

Simeone almost didn't choke on his saliva, he stared at Gao Zheng with wide eyes: "You promised so readily?!"

Gao Zheng spread his hands: "As I said, I will listen to you, Boss. If you say you want me to stay, I will stay. If you say you want me to leave, I will leave."

Obviously it means "you are the only one who follows the horse", but why does Simeone sound like Gao Zheng is joking with him?

He stared and pretended to be angry: "Are you kidding me?"

"How dare I, boss. I really listen to you..." Gao Zheng said with a smile.

Simeone shook his head: "Then I hope you finish the game against Villarreal before leaving. You know, your departure this time is not a matter of a week or two, and your absence is not just a game. "

Gao Zheng nodded and said, "I understand."

Seeing that Gao Zheng still readily agreed, Simeone couldn't help asking: "Aren't you worried about what the fans and media in your country will say about you?"

Gao Zheng shook his head: "Boss,

I've always thought there was one good thing about the world of football. "

"What good?"

"Strength speaks."

Simeone smiled: "You are crazy! But I like it!"

※※※

But in fact, the domestic reaction is not as intense as Simeone and those who are worried about Gao Zheng imagined. After all, half of the people thought that the Football Association did not do this properly.

And what Gao Zheng said was right, the head coach was in charge of him at the club, and he really couldn't do it for him. People are under the roof, and the head coach has to listen to what he says, unless he doesn't want to stay on this team.

Since the head coach is unwilling to let him come back early, what can he do? Fall out completely with the head coach, just to return to China to play against Palestine? In the end, when the head coach wore small shoes after returning home, could the Chinese Football Association and those who supported Gao Zheng's early return provide any help to Gao Zheng?

Since you can't help Gao Zheng, then don't take advantage of others, clamor to make others pay the price, and enjoy the benefits yourself.

Of course, some people criticized Gao Zheng, thinking that he was selfish. However, this kind of person will soon be besieged by more people, and they will not be able to open their mouths when they are scolded.

So the topic of whether Gao Zheng should come back early gradually calmed down after Gao Zheng gave this answer.

Atletico Madrid also officially notified the Chinese Football Association that they will not send Gao Zheng back to China after the game against Juventus, they have to wait until Atletico Madrid finishes the game against Villarreal Gao Zheng will be obtained later.

The warm-up match against Palestine was not an A-level event recognized by FIFA. The club did not have to let people go, not to mention the days when there were no games before that, and Atletico Madrid didn't have to let people go.

From a logical point of view, Atlético Madrid did absolutely right. If the Chinese Football Association insists on making a fuss about not letting people go, it will be impossible to win the case if it goes to FIFA or the International Court of Arbitration for Sport.

So there is no need to continue to entangle. Atlético de Madrid decided not to let him go, and the Chinese Football Association had to wait for Gao Zheng to finish the match against Villarreal before returning.

Anyway, it's not like they haven't been rejected by European clubs before...

The farce surrounding the club's failure to let go of Gao Zheng ended in this way, and Atletico Madrid also ushered in the last group match of the Champions League against Juventus.

This game is Juventus' home game.

Juventus will have a back-to-back fight at home. Although they can draw with Atletico Madrid and they will be able to qualify for the group, this is not guaranteed. Regardless of whether it is a 0:0 draw or a 2:2 draw, as long as Atletico Madrid scores another goal in this score, all of Juventus' efforts may be wasted.

In fact, Juventus will not formulate the tactics of this game with the goal of "draw". Allegri must have "victory" in mind when formulating tactics.

In this world, I am afraid that only the Chinese team and the Chinese Football Association are really rushing to draw because of the situation of "a tie can qualify".

The result of expecting a draw is often an outright defeat.

This time Buffon did not shout to Gao Zheng before the game, perhaps because he didn't want to stimulate the media to bring up old accounts. After all, it hasn't been long since the last match between the two sides. Everyone remembers that beautiful heel goal.

After Juventus returned from Madrid in that game, they were scolded bloody by Italy. The process of the game was disgraceful, and the result of the game was not satisfactory, which really embarrassed Juventus. During the game, the referee ignored the handballs in the two penalty areas, but in the end, Gao Zheng knocked one in with his heel. Isn't it embarrassing?

Therefore, Juventus is very secretive about that game, and will not mention it if it can not be mentioned.

The pre-match coach Allegri just said: "We will work hard to win. This is our home court. As long as we can beat Atletico Madrid, we will be able to qualify. So in a sense, it is the initiative to qualify." The power is still in our hands..."

He is right to say that, but it just makes people feel a bit stubborn.

You can qualify by beating Atletico Madrid, that's right.

But can you beat Atletico Madrid?

Before the game, supporters of other Italian teams, such as Sampdoria fans, joked on the Internet: "I think there is no suspense for Juventus to beat Atletico Madrid, because this is their home court. When their players are in When you handball in your own box, the referee can award Juventus a penalty - the kind of penalty you take in the penalty area of ​​​​Atletico Madrid."

So how does Atletico Madrid view this game?

Simeone does not think that Atletico Madrid has no desires: "We still have to fight for the first place in the group. Why do we think that we can play whatever we want in this game? As for Juventus? They will continue to play in the Champions League in the end." It has nothing to do with us to play in the Europa League, and I have nothing to do with it."

What about Gao Zheng?

"It's nostalgic to be back in Italy, and even though I've only been away for a few months, it feels like I've been away for a long, long time. I know the Juventus Arena very well, I have very good memories here, playing in the Playing here is like returning home." He smiled and said to the reporters who interviewed him.

But it made the reporters in Turin shiver.

beautiful memories? Back home?

I believe you ghost!

You boy is very bad!
