Aragones did not bring Raul to the European Cup in the end.
When the Spanish coach announced this decision, it not only caused great turbulence in Spain, but also shocked the football world all over the world.
Even a lot of fans are preparing. Once Aragones' team is defeated in the European Cup, they will rush in one after another to spray the meritorious old coach to nothing and pull him down from the Spanish national team.
It can be said that during that period, Aragones completely became a street mouse in Spain.
After watching the Champions League final on the spot, Gao Han stayed in Europe to attend the opening ceremony of the European Cup and watch the European Cup, so he did not choose to return home, but traveled with Lin Xia in Europe.
When he learned about the accusations and pressure that Aragones was under, Gao Han expressed his opinion through the Maka newspaper, and once again stood beside Aragones, saying publicly that it was a right decision for Aragones not to recruit Raul.
"Each team can only have 23 places, which means that there will always be some excellent players rejected by the national team. Unfortunately, this time it was Raul, but this is football."
Gao also reiterated that he has a good relationship with Raul. They are also neighbors of Madrid lafenka. The reason why they said this is that they are technical advisers of the Spanish Football Association.
Many fans are also at this time, just suddenly remember, the original Alpine overhead is still hanging such a virtual title.
Guardiola led Barcelona to beat Manchester United 2-0 to win the Champions League and complete the second triple crown queen in Spanish football history. Gao is known as the number one hero behind the scenes. His influence in Spain and even in European football has exploded again. He stands up to speak, and it is difficult for others to give a strong refutation.
Gao Han was also entrusted by Aragones to return to Madrid and went to Raul's home to explain why Aragones didn't want to recruit him into the team. He said that it had nothing to do with personal grudges, just taking the overall situation into consideration.
Raul has a deep prejudice against Aragones and does not fully accept the explanation of alpine cold. However, he also said that he will not make any comments that are not conducive to the unity of the team when the competition is coming.
On the second day, Raul also gave an interview to the media and sincerely hoped that the Spanish national team could have a good performance in the European Cup and achieve outstanding results.
At that time, Gao Han stood beside Raul and watched him endure his sadness and loss. When he said this, Gao Han also felt sad, because he knew that Spain would always owe Raul whether it was successful or not.
But that's football.

The opening match of the European Cup was held in Switzerland, where Switzerland, one of the hosts, played against the Czech Republic.
Gao Han, accompanied by Lin Xia, accepted the invitation of UEFA and appeared in the grandstand. He watched host Switzerland lose the opening game to Czech Republic one-to-one.
Also enjoying the match with Gao Han is former Bayern Munich coach Heathfield. According to Gao Han's inside story, he has signed an agreement with the Swiss Football Association to officially replace Kuhn as the head coach of the Swiss national team after the European Cup.
After watching the opening game, Gao is still in the European Cup competition, he watched Modric goal, help Croatia beat another host team Austria 1-0.
After that, he watched Loew's German national team beat Poland 2-0 on the spot. The one who scored two goals was Gao Han's discarder Podolski in Bayern Munich. With these two goals, Podolski was also in the lead of the scorer list for the time being.
After scoring twice and being elected as the best player of the match, Podolski can be said to have greatly vented his depression in Bayern Munich in the past season, which made him more or less open when he was interviewed by the media after the game.
He even said publicly, "I've never been a substitute. I need to play and I believe I have the strength to be the main player."
After that, the German striker International said, "if I don't see the prospect of playing as the main player under the high cold, then I will seriously consider the future after the European Cup." But he also stressed, "for me, the most important thing now is the European Cup, and then I will think about other things."
A lot of media have regarded this as Podolski's forced attack on the cold and Bayern Munich. With his two goals in this match, he proved his value with strength. He really shouldn't stay on the bench in Bayern Munich.
But when Podolski was interviewed by the media, Gao Han quietly appeared at the door of the changing room of the Polish national team after the game, and went to visit Ben Huck in person.
The 65 year old Dutch coach has coached Ajax, Feyenoord, Real Madrid and Zaragoza. Among them, Ajax and Real Madrid have coached twice, which shows that his coaching strength is not bad.
This time in charge of Poland, he brought this Eastern European team into the European Cup finals for the first time in history.
Ben Huck was also very surprised by the cold's personal visit.
If you want to say that they really have no friendship, the only time they meet is to greet each other politely.
They talked politely outside the dressing room and talked a lot about Poland in the game.
It was not until the end of the conversation that Gao Han asked Ben HAQ about a player and jokingly mentioned that if Ben HAQ brought him to the European Cup, maybe the situation in this game would be completely changed.
Ben Huck was very surprised by Gao's inquiry. He didn't expect that Gao was no stranger to polish players.
"Yes, you are right. I also appreciate this player very much, but you know, he is still young. I was a little worried about the pressure that he would not be able to compete before, but now it seems that maybe I should bring him to the European Cup."
Obviously, Ben Huck has been concerned about this player for a long time, and as a human elite, he can see the meaning of high cold all of a sudden.
"What? Are you interested in him, too? "
Alpine unpredictable smile, "casually ask."
just ask?
How could Ben Huck believe that?
Which player can let Gao Han come out to understand the situation? Any questions?
