Chapter 676： Is this your revenge against Real Madrid?

"Farfan dribbled the ball and Felipe put it in front."

"Gareth Bale is very fast, City's fast counter-attack."

"The counterattack of the front trident formed a three-on-four situation."

"Look at Gareth Bell's handling. He punched Uchida Atsuto directly on the left and made a cross from the bottom line."

"Suarez in the middle leaked, the ball reached the back point..."

"Robben!!"

"Smash the ball with the right foot, pull it over, it's beautiful, and directly pass the two players, then hit the ball with the left foot!"

"The ball is in!!"

"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!"

"Manchester City scored one more goal, four to zero!"

"Only three minutes into the second half, three minutes, Manchester City once again scored Schalke 04 with a quick counter-attack. Robben used a wonderful left-footed curved shot to give Manchester City another victory. "

"This time, Manchester City's quick counterattack was very sharp. Schalke's midfield was completely unable to keep up, and the four players in the back line failed to defend the attacking coordination of Manchester City's trident."

"Four to zero! Now it's time for Magath to adjust."

"If you still want to continue to fight with Manchester City, it is estimated that Schalke 04 will lose even more."

…

"It's not going to be so tough now, is it?"

Gao Shen looked innocently at the home team's coaching bench, muttering in his mouth.

Head iron is a kind of disease, it needs to be cured!

Carlo, Lucas, and Sarri were all nearby, and they heard it clearly, but at the same time, they all showed strange expressions.

They were all speechless and could only say: Gao, can you be more shameless?

Obviously, my heart is full of joy, but I still have to pretend to be innocent?

Who is this going to fool?

Magath is indeed a top iron. He has already been hit with three goals in the first half, and he still wants to attack in the second half. Isn't this a lottery?

However, Magath appeared to have made up his mind after scoring the fourth goal.

In the fifty-fifth minute, US international Jermaine Jones replaced Baumjohn.

The midfield has also changed from the original diamond-shaped stance to the current double midfielder stance.

Manchester City continued to stabilize the ball, controlled the situation on the scene, and attacked Schalke 04 again and again.

But Schalke 04, who focused on defense, still defended well, especially when there were double midfielders in front of the defense line, plus Manchester City had a four-goal lead, slowing down the offensive appropriately, allowing Magath's team to be able to Hold your ground.

In the 65th minute, Magath made a second substitution, replacing Jurado with Annan.

This Annan is the nephew of former United Nations Secretary-General Annan, who was once regarded as Essien II, but from the current situation, the development of this Ghanaian midfielder is still not satisfactory.

Even now, his biggest name is still that he has an uncle who was the Secretary-General of the United Nations.

The last 30 minutes of the game were basically spent in the substitutions of Manchester City and the defense of Schalke 04.

The scene did not look good, and Manchester City finally failed to score again.

Four to zero, the score remained until the end.

…

"congratulations!"

As soon as the game whistle sounded, Magath walked to the coaching bench of the visiting team and shook hands with Gao Shen.

The German's face was ashen, with no smile at all, as if he was being pointed at by someone, reluctantly.

Gao Shen was in a good mood and greeted Magath with a smile.

He actually wanted to ask Magath why he suddenly wanted to play against Manchester City?

Or, how are you feeling now?

But Gao Shen finally suppressed the gossip mentality.

Magath should be in a worse position now.

Gao Shen's foot is still quite heavy, and he may even step on Magath directly.

Shaking hands, Magath walked straight into the player tunnel without talking to Gao Shen.

In the stands, Schalke 04 fans could be heard calling for dismissal.

But Gao Shen did not think so.

It is reported that in the contract signed by Magath and Schalke 04, the liquidated damages are as high as 12 million euros, which is a sky-high price for Schalke 04, which is already heavily indebted.

To put it simply, Schalke 04 is so poor that he doesn't even have the ability to dismiss the employer's coach!

Unless Magath did not want liquidated damages, it would be equivalent to Magath leaving voluntarily.

However, the Germans also said that he would not do this.

For this complex situation, Gao Shen said he couldn't understand it.

…

"Hey, boss!"

Raul came over, high-fives and shook hands with Gao Shen with a smile.

Gao Shen pulled hard and hugged Raul directly.

"You seem to be doing well, kid." Gao Shen was also very happy to see Raul.

He noticed that Raul's situation in Schalke 04 is still quite good. After all, as Schalke 04's current biggest star, he is naturally valued.

"I just want to score a few more goals," Raul said.

Gao Shen wanted to say: Otherwise, save your energy?

Anyway, in another two years, you will soon be taken down by those two record-setting hooligans.

With this Spanish time, instead of wasting in the Bundesliga, it is better to go to the American Major League or the Middle East to make money, isn't it fragrant?

But sometimes, people need some thought.

"By the way, tonight, your tactics are a bit weird, it feels like you're helping us."

As soon as Gao Shen's words fell, Raul smiled wryly in embarrassment.

Boss, can we stop being so ambiguous?

For those who don't know, they thought we Schalke played match-fixing.

"Before the game, he talked to me, and I mentioned to him to pay attention, but I didn't expect that he took the initiative to press it out. It is estimated that the pressure has been too great recently." After Raul finished speaking, he sighed. breathed.

People who haven't experienced it themselves will never understand the pressure of being a team coach.

It was as if no one could understand why Guardiola would suddenly make such a nonsensical decision on the eve of the Champions League final.

Not only pressure from management, but also from players in the locker room, from outside media and fans.

More importantly, this kind of pressure can only be borne by the coach himself, and no one can help him.

"To be honest, Schalke 04 is no match for Real Madrid." Raul said with a dark expression on his face.

Although he played in Atletico Madrid in the youth team, he spent all his career in Real Madrid, so he is very familiar with everything about Real Madrid. His memories of professional football are all from Real Madrid.

Suddenly, he left Real Madrid, which is a process of adaptation for anyone.

Especially from Real Madrid to a team like Schalke 04.

"The difference between our starting lineup and the thickness of our bench is so great that if we play well in the Champions League, it will be difficult to play well in the league, but now, the club's debt forces the team to play well in the Champions League, at least to qualify for the group stage... "

Gao Shen opened his eyes, darling, do you want to qualify for the group?

Looking at Raul again, Gao Shen couldn't help laughing, "Is this your revenge against Real Madrid?"

If Schalke 04 wants to qualify for the group, then they will definitely have to fight with Real Madrid.

"Boss, can't you just get rid of your Manchester City?" Raul countered.

Gao Shen laughed heartily, "Don't forget, we have two consecutive victories."

Saying that, Gao Shen shook **** in front of Raul.

Raul's face is really not very good-looking.

Because the results of another stadium also passed over.

With Ronaldo's goal, Real Madrid beat Inter Milan 1-0 at home.

As a result, Manchester City leads the standings with two consecutive victories, and Real Madrid is second in the group with one win and one loss.

Inter Milan and Schalke 04 both have one draw and one loss, but because Schalke conceded more goals, they fell to the fourth place in the group.

Now this situation is very close to the situation of the Bundesliga standings, with Schalke 04 at the bottom.

The reason why Raul joined Schalke 04 was to score more goals in the Champions League, but now, the team has suffered such a blow, which makes Raul feel somewhat at a loss.

"Don't worry, in the next two rounds, I will try my best to help you kill Inter Milan." Gao Shen patted Raul on the shoulder and encouraged.

But Raul was still a little worried.

Can Schalke 04 get out of the shadow of the home defeat?

More importantly, in the next round of the group stage, Raul will take Schalke 04 to visit the Bernabeu.

The first time he entered the Bernabeu as a Real Madrid opponent, Raul didn't know how he should deal with himself.

…

They beat Real Madrid 5-0 at home in the first round, and beat Schalke 04 4-0 away in the second round.

Manchester City not only won two consecutive victories, but also maintained a record of not conceding a goal, and the results are even more gratifying.

The British and European media were generally satisfied with Manchester City's performance.

In fact, as early as this season, everyone had already guessed that Manchester City would become a dark horse in the Champions League this season. The champion, after being trained by Gao Shen for a year, should also show his competitiveness.

Gao Shen did not comment on Schalke 04 or Magath at the post-match press conference.

Although Magath was very dissatisfied with Manchester City's performance after the game, he believed that Manchester City won't be easy to win, and Schalke's performance was not bad. The fiasco was because of bad luck...

Gao Shen is satisfied with Manchester City's performance, but at the same time reminds the team that the first two consecutive victories are nothing, and the real test is not over yet. If Manchester City wants to stand out from the group stage, it must play well against Inter Milan. Two rounds.

That is, the third and fourth rounds of the group stage.

"I don't know what other people think, but for me, we still have some problems in the first two rounds of the group stage. I believe that my team and players can and should do better."

Gao Shen said that the Champions League is the highest level of competition in world football.

"It requires everyone, every game, every minute to stay focused and give their all."

Obviously, Gao Shen still wants to keep a low profile.

But the big wins in these two games are too eye-catching. It is not an exaggeration to say that Manchester City is the most eye-catching team in the first two rounds of the group stage.

The media and fans naturally caught the Manchester City hype frantically, and their attention exploded.

Even, many media have already hyped the topic of Manchester City as the favorite team to win the Champions League this season, for fear that the world will not be chaotic, which makes Gao Shen and Manchester City helpless and happy.

At the same time, there are some worries.

Very normal.

Gao Shen has always believed in a sentence, born in trouble and die in peace.

As a head coach, it's a good thing to worry a little bit more.
