Chapter 224 Shaking and firming(1/2)
Real Madrid president Florentino left the stadium angrily after Diego Costa scored his fourth goal, and it was difficult for him to continue watching.
By the time the whole game was about to end, Florentino was already in the car and was about to leave.
Although he knew that a miracle would not happen, Florentino turned on the radio and jumped to the channel that broadcasted the Madrid Derby live, but he immediately regretted the decision.
"Diego Costa! He helped Atletico score his fifth goal!"
"This is an unexpected game, at the Bernabeu Stadium, Real Madrid was completely...
“MD!”
"Crack! Hiss..."
Florentino cursed inwardly, and his fist hit the radio button hard. He suddenly felt a pain in the back of his hand and blew it a few times with his teeth grinning.
0 to 5!
As the chairman of Real Madrid Club, this is the first time Florentino has seen the team beating so badly by the arch-rivals in the city.
This is also the biggest gap in Madrid derby history.
Many times, if the Madrid derby has a 3-0 derby, it is already a very high score. A game with more than four goals is rare in the 100-year competitive history of the two teams.
Florentino knew very well about the Madrid derby. He knew clearly that the biggest score won by Atletico Madrid was in the 1947-1948 season, when Atletico Madrid defeated Real Madrid 5-0. In the 1983-1984 season, Real Madrid swept Atletico Madrid 5-0 and finally completed the revenge of the big score after 36 years. It was also the biggest victory in Real Madrid's history against Atletico Madrid.
Atletico Madrid beat Real Madrid 5-0, and after 38 years, Real Madrid beat Atletico Madrid 5-0. Now it's another 5-0, and Atletico Madrid still wins a big score at the Bernabeu Stadium.
Is this a cycle of football history?
Florentino had a gloomy face, and he could not accept this reality at all.
No matter what history is, he doesn't think Atletico Madrid's skills are comparable to Real Madrid. He is even more unacceptable to the team's five-goal failure, especially during his term.
So he began to consider a question: "Is that Portuguese... really suitable to be the Real Madrid coach?"
———
In fact, it is not just Florentino who is thinking, but many media and Real Madrid fans are also thinking.
When Mourinho came to Madrid, many Real Madrid supporters regarded him as the 'Real Madrid savior', and they believed that Mourinho could lead Real Madrid to glory again.
But more than a season has passed, and Real Madrid's performance has not improved significantly, especially the three losses of the Madrid derby, which is even more unacceptable for fans.
But whether they accept it or not, they must face the tragedy that just happened.
At the post-match press conference, Wan Sheng became the focus.
Atletico Madrid was the league champion last season, but almost no other team supports it. The media thinks that Atletico Madrid has the opportunity to defend the league champion. It has been a long time since Spanish football was dominated by two teams of the "Swiss Super League". Just like Valencia, there will occasionally be a Real Madrid and a league champion outside Barcelona in the La Liga, but the chance of appearing is not high. As long as Real Madrid and Barcelona regroup, the championship will still belong to them.
In the eyes of the media and fans, Atletico Madrid is no better than Valencia.
Last season, Atletico Madrid won the league championship, but so what?
The only thing that can be explained is that Barcelona and Real Madrid have poor performances, that's all, nothing else. It's not how strong Atletico Madrid is, but that they found a good opportunity to play a good league and then won the championship.
In the eyes of Spanish media and fans, the process of Atletico Madrid winning the league championship is much more important than playing.
It's a little different now.
Atletico Madrid once again showed its championship potential. Although Real Madrid had scored points before and sat at the top of the league, within a few rounds, Atletico Madrid pushed away Real Madrid again, and still used this "strong" method.
A 5-goal massacre!
In the century-old history of Real Madrid Club, there are only a handful of games that have been massacred by 5 goals!
Last season, Real Madrid also scored five goals by Barcelona in the Spanish national derby, but the opponent of the national derby is the powerful Barcelona and Atletico Madrid? Can they really compare with Barcelona?
If someone asked this question before, the answer would have been no, but now it has become a question, because this game tied the history of the Madrid derby.
No, it should be said to surpass the Madrid derby history!
Even the 5-goal victory in Atletico Madrid in 1947 was played at Calderon Stadium, not the Bernabeu Stadium. Real Madrid lost 5 goals in front of their own goal, which was an unimaginable shame.
Wan Sheng led the team to recreate the Madrid derby history!
In the game, Atletico Madrid also fully demonstrated its strong offensive power!
Some people have said before that Real Madrid has the strongest offensive ability because they scored the most goals in the league, so no one can watch it like that now, and everyone can see it. Real Madrid chose to defend in the game.
If their offensive ability is stronger than Atletico Madrid, do you still need to do that?
The answer is obvious.
It can only be said that data does not mean everything. Atletico Madrid scored fewer goals, but it does not mean that their offense is weaker than Real Madrid. Perhaps they are the team with the strongest offensive power.
But no matter how you think about it, the good side belongs to Atletico Madrid, and the bad side belongs to Real Madrid.
This conclusion made Real Madrid support the media very depressed.
Wan Sheng was in the position, smiling at the reporters in the audience, and said calmly, "To be honest, I didn't expect the team to play so well, 0 to 5, better than I expected!"
"I'm very happy to see the team win a big score. As for setting historical records, I don't care, nor do my players care. The happiest thing is that we beat our opponents in big scores, won the Madrid derby, and we also returned to the top of the league... But I think this ranking position should belong to us."
"Looking back at the game, it was really wonderful. We created a wonderful game with Real Madrid. I think the game will remain in people's minds and will become a topic of conversation for a long time. But it must be said that creating history is not created by ourselves. Real Madrid also has a contribution. Everyone should remember them. I think they have made more contributions. They cooperated to create history."
Speaking of this, Wan Sheng continued to smile and look at the reporters in the audience. Those Real Madrid support media reporters gritted their teeth, but Wan Sheng liked to appreciate the expressions of the losers.
After more than ten seconds, when a reporter was about to speak, Wan Sheng raised his hand at the right time and interrupted, "I will celebrate with the players later, so I won't say much here. I will only say the last sentence: Welcome Mr. Mourinho and come again to challenge next time!"
Wan Sheng left the press conference after saying that.
The reporters in the venue looked at Wansheng's back and didn't know what to say.
———
That night, the media reported the competition overwhelmingly, and what Wan Sheng said after the game also appeared in major media reports. Whether it was TV media, print media or online media, they all began to analyze the competition and report on what Wan Sheng said, every sentence and every word in it was carefully analyzed.
Some people jumped out and said that Wan Sheng was arrogant, some people said that he was proud, and some people said that he was not optimistic about Atletico Madrid.
But no matter how the media reports or what others comment, a 5-goal victory over Real Madrid at the Bernabeu Stadium has indeed created a new history of the Madrid derby.
As the head coach who leads the team to create a new history, Wan Sheng has enough capital to be arrogant.
The game caused a big shock in Spain!
The entire European football and even the world football have been trembling because of the game!
Atletico Madrid defeated the home team Real Madrid 5-0 at the Bernabeu Stadium!
This is the real Madrid derby!
Such a huge score in the Madrid derby is enough to be remembered for hundreds of years. To this day, many Atletico Madrid fans are still happily talking about their 5-0 victory over Atletico Madrid in the 1947-1948 season.
That is their most proudest game!
Until now, there are too few Atletico Madrid fans who have really watched that game, but it does not affect the discussion of Atletico Madrid fans, because in the century-old history of the Madrid derby, they have also defeated Real Madrid by 5 goals.
Now they can forget that game.
Because Wan Sheng led the team to win Real Madrid in front of all fans, 5 goals, and more importantly, the game location was still at the Bernabeu Stadium, and the gap had exceeded the derby in the 1947-1948 season.
Atletico Madrid did it, and Wansheng did it.
Since the summer of 2008, Wan Sheng left European football and had no news for two consecutive years. Many people have forgotten him. Even though Wan Sheng coached Atletico Madrid, he did not participate in European competitions last season. European media have not commented on him, but now he uses a derby war that shocked Europe and the world to tell everyone: "I'm back!"
Wansheng's name sounded again in the whole of Europe!
In contrast, Jose Mourinho, the media praises Atletico Madrid, praises or is wary of Wan Sheng, and regrets Real Madrid, and questions Mourinho.
Mourinho led Real Madrid and lost 0-5 to Atletico Madrid at the Bernabeu Stadium. The game is definitely a shame that Real Madrid has lasted for decades, and it is a shame that is deeply remembered by fans.
Under such a huge shame, you can imagine how Mourinho will be evaluated.
All media are criticizing Mourinho, criticizing his "passive play" and questioning his coaching ability. Real Madrid support the media and also began to discuss Mourinho's ability issues, constantly analyzing and reflecting, "Can Mourinho really lead Real Madrid to restart its glory?"
It's completely invisible now.
All they saw was Real Madrid's defeat to Atletico Madrid.
Mourinho felt tremendous pressure.
Since officially becoming the head coach in 2000, he has never been so stressed in his 11-year career as a professional head coach, whether he was in a disagreement with the board of directors in Benfica, led Porto to compete in Europe, or was unable to achieve results at Chelsea for a long time and was successful in Inter Milan.
The club chairman, media, fans, almost everyone is accusing him, and even some players in the team have begun to question him.
Before one game, he was the 'savior' of Real Madrid, and after one game, he became the 'sinner' of Real Madrid.
This gap is really big.
Mourinho has always been a person who can withstand pressure. He is very proud, but now he feels a little suffocated.
"Do you still want to continue to serve as Real Madrid coach?"
His heart was shaken.
Even at Chelsea, Abramovich had distrustful of him, he insisted on continuing to work, not only for that contract, but also for his personal 'pride'. "No matter where he is, as long as the club does not fire me, I will continue to be the head coach." This is what he once said, but now he wants to leave, but in the end his inner determination still defeated this 'shaking'. More importantly, he was very unwilling to fail. Whenever he thought of Wansheng, his fists would clench tightly.
Why did I fail?
Why can't I beat that guy?
Mourinho is unwilling to give up!
He was bored in the office for more than three hours, and when he walked out, he became a new look.
To be continued...
