Valencia lost three goals to Mirvoor at home, and the entire European media are reporting on the game.

Among them, only the Spanish media was "sad" for Valencia's defeat. Media in other countries either supported Mirvoor or neutral. A large part of them expressed gloating. They said Flores said "easily defeated Mirvoor" before the game. As a result, Valencia was easily defeated by Mirvoor. They thought it was very meaningful to report on the game in a popular reverse entertainment event.

Flores became a 'negative' celebrity.

In the past, in terms of European football, Flores' fame was limited to Spain. He was a star in the 1980s. Few people know that. In terms of coaching, he has only coached Real Madrid youth team and Getafe, so the media in other countries don't know.

It is also something that Flores can become Valencia's coach. With his resume, it is not as good as coaching European quasi-wealthy clubs.

Zhang Yang is different.

Zhang Yang has entered the head coaching industry for less than two years. He first led Millwall to achieve upgrades, and then led Millwall to create history to win the double championships of the Premier League and the FA Cup as a newly promoted team.

This achievement is recognized by the world.

Zhang Yang's fame has also become very high, and many people in other countries know him.

Outside the head coaching field, Zhang Yang is also a Weibo celebrity. He participated in BBC TV's live broadcast program and served as a wonderful commentary for the guest. Many people also remembered his name.

Flores was a bit suspicious of relying on his seniority when facing Zhang Yang, but in fact, his fame was much different from Zhang Yang. Now he finally caught up with some, but it was just a negative fame.

Outside Europe, Chinese media are also very concerned about the competition.

Chinese media have always liked to report on major competitions because they can attract enough attention. In the minds of Chinese media and fans, the European Champions League's status is second only to the World Cup.

Last season, Millwall also received a lot of attention, but Chinese TV stations did not buy the broadcast rights for the Premier League. Most fans followed Millwall through news, and TV also had games to broadcast, but the number was very small.

Millwall is different when participating in the Champions League.

This game has a high rating in China. Even in the early morning, more than 10 million people watched the game, which is more than the entire European continent.

Mirwall's performance did not disappoint the fans, and he easily won Valencia with three goals.

Chinese fans are very happy.

In the eyes of many Chinese fans, Mirwall has a close relationship with China because their head coach is Chinese. Zhang Yang has become very famous in China and has reached the point where he can think of Zhang Yang when talking about Chinese football.

Now that we see Zhang Yang leading the team to continue to make efforts in Europe, Chinese fans are still very happy, and they feel a sense of pride.

See?

It is said that Chinese football is not good, and Chinese football cannot go abroad. We also have the world's top coaches!

Your top coaches are all seventy-year-old and eighty-year-old.

Our top coach is just a young man in his twenties, and there is unlimited room for the future!

This is the pride of Chinese fans.

The day after the competition, Zhang Yang accepted an interview with the large online media "XL Sports".

This is an interview that was booked in advance. "XL Sports" also conducted online publicity for this. The interview column will also be broadcast live on the Internet to bring fans to get to know Zhang Yang up close.

Zhang Yang will definitely not miss positive publicity opportunities.

The interview venue was in the first team training ground. Because the sun was a little dazzling, the interview was arranged under the shade of the tree. The background was on the training ground. Zhang Yang also called Ruan Hailong to give the newly hired personal assistant a chance to take the camera.

Ruan Hailong was a little flattered.

Life in recent years is like a dream. Needless to say, how good the working environment is, I can still be on camera with Zhang Yang. Although I didn’t arrange to say a word, it’s already amazing to appear on the camera.

When the interview is over, there will definitely be fans wondering: Who is the person next to Zhang Yang? Then some people will know his name, although the number will not be large, it will also increase its fame.

Of course, fame is of no use to Ruan Hailong.

However, being able to accept an interview with Zhang Yang is a success. If someone knows you, you can know that you are doing well in the UK. Then your parents will be very handsome in front of others.

The last thing Ruan Hailong cares about.

It is very difficult for parents to spend their whole life savings to come to the UK to study. He hopes that their parents can be proud of themselves, and being happy is equivalent to being happy.

It was Zhang Yang who was interviewed, but Ruan Hailong cared more about it than Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang only wore the training suit standard for the club, while Ruan Hailong wore the high-end suit given to him by Zhang Yang. He tidied it up for a long time just by tiarizing it, "You can't embarrass Zhang Yang."

The next interview officially begins.

Ruan Hailong dressed up carefully for a long time, but half of the camera was actually aimed at Zhang Yang. He just sat next to him, put on a smile, and pretended to be a passerby. The cameraman of the column team also reminded him, "Be more natural, don't steal the camera."

Then Ruan Hailong became a statue.

The exclusive interview of "XL Sports" is aimed at individuals, but the content is mainly aimed at Millwall's Champions League. The questions asked during the interview have been watched in advance.

Zhang Yang only glanced at him and didn't pay attention.

He doesn't need to prepare.

If you ask questions, ask directly. There is nothing to say when facing Chinese fans, and you can say whatever you want. Mirwall participates in the Champions League, and there is no sensitive topic to talk about.

The interview took twenty minutes, and during the interview press conference, five to eight questions were asked, and each question had to be said a lot.

The questions from the interview reporters are summarized: the mood of leading the team in the Champions League, Mirwall’s goals, what expectations do you have for the team and which players will perform well in the Champions League.

Zhang Yang talked about his mood and said funny, "I don't think I have any special mood. To be honest, I'm just a little excited, but it's actually nothing. I have coached less than two years, and I have led the team to participate in the English Championship for the first time, the Premier League for the first time, and even the first time I led the team to participate in the British Cup. Every event is new to me."

"The Champions League is a big stage, but it is a new challenge for me and the entire team, but we are constantly facing brand new challenges."

Next, Zhang Yang talked about his goal, "The Champions League is a new arena, but I am very confident in the team's strength. What we lack the most is experience. There is no big problem with qualifying in the group, but the goal is hard to say. There is a lot of uncertainty in the knockout stage, so we will try our best to achieve the best results."

"I look forward to the team being able to enter the quarterfinals, preferably in the quarterfinals. If I can win the championship, I will definitely not be satisfied with the runner-up. I think every coach will think so. So it is meaningless to talk about this."

"What I want to see most this season is that the team can improve its tactical adaptation. In addition, I also hope that every player can perform well."

“…”

Zhang Yang talked a lot about Millwall and the Champions League event, and expressed his thoughts.

Facing the live broadcast of Chinese fans is different from interviewing with British media. If it were media interviews, Zhang Yang would definitely be more modest and low-key, but that was not really low-key. One is to prevent the media from seizing the handle, and the other is to deal with it simply. He knew that what the media wanted to hear was big news, and they didn't care about Mirwall's specific goals at all.

Chinese media are different.

Chinese media almost never say bad things about themselves, perhaps because they are one of the few successful coaches in Chinese football. Their reports support themselves also represents a part of the correctness of "politics".

It can be said that Chinese media and fans are their backing.

When facing the "backup", we naturally have to show a sincere attitude and say whatever we have.

This live interview was very successful.

The interview live broadcast of "XL Sports" has exceeded 8 million in time, which is almost higher than the TV media's ratings. In the next three days, the live interview video was continuously viewed, and the number of clicks increased by the order of 10 million per day. Even the sports programs of Central TV intercepted some of them for reports.

After this live interview, many domestic media were shocked by Zhang Yang's influence.

In the eyes of many major media, Zhang Yang is very successful in coaching in Europe, and is only 23 years old. He has coached for less than two years and has not yet had enough influence.

But numbers won't lie.

Now that Chinese football is declining, Zhang Yang has become a benchmark for success in the football world, and many media have become interested in interviewing Zhang Yang or cooperating with Zhang Yang.

The league is coming soon.

In the sixth round, Millwall played against Bolton at home, and the final score was 2-1.

Perhaps due to the influence of the Champions League, Millwall played a bit difficult at home, but fortunately, he finally defeated Bolton and successfully scored three points.

In the last league game at the end of September, Millwall challenged Tottenham Hotspur away.

Tottenham is not easy to deal with.

This is also the focus of the seventh round.

However, in this game, Millwall recovered his form, the midfield completely suppressed Tottenham Hotspur, Simpson also played very flexibly on the wing, Vardy, who started the game, performed very well. He scored two goals in person, and Simpson also scored two goals.

With Simpson and Vardy's goals, Millwall beat Tottenham 1-4 away.

After two rounds of the league ended, Millwall ushered in the second round of the Champions League group stage.

This round is home game.

The Donetsk miners who came to challenge are a giant Ukrainian football team. The team brings together many international players from Eastern European countries and is the most famous team in Ukraine.

As a veteran strongman in the Ukrainian league, Donetsk miners often appear in European arenas and work with Dynamo Kiev to defend the dignity of Ukrainian football. Although Donetsk miners are regular visitors to the Champions League, they have never won the honors of the Champions League in history, and it is not easy to qualify in the group every time they participate.

In Group D, Donetsk miners are also the least favored.

The media is not optimistic about a team, but there is actually a good reason. The most important thing is the issue of strength. The Donetsk miners are regular visitors in the Champions League, which does not mean that they are very high. The more reason is that they are Ukrainian league teams, and their equal strength is in the Premier League, and they may not even be qualified to play in the UEFA Cup.

So Millwall has almost no pressure.

Although the opponent's strength is not strong, Zhang Yang still asked the team to prepare seriously and fight against the Donetsk miners. Mirwall's tactics remain unchanged and he still uses the "dual core" tactical style.

The Donetsk miners were obviously unadapted.

They have a lot of experience in fighting against England teams, but Millwall's style has surpassed the English football style. Faced with Millwall's skillful cooperation, the Donetsk miners were very uncomfortable and conceded the ball early in the first ten minutes.

There is no suspense in the next game. Mirwall almost played around the Donetsk miners in the first half with an overwhelming advantage.

The final score is 6 to 0.

Millwall scored six goals in the game with his home advantage, which was the result of "showing mercy" and replacing two main players in the second half.

After the game, Donetsk Miners coach Lucescu said in fear, "This game is definitely a good lesson. We underestimated Mirwall."

"I heard before that Zhang Yang thought Group D was a good draw, and he felt that he was a little sarcastic. Now I am still not sure whether Mirwall has drawn a good draw, but competing with a team like Mirwall, our prospects for qualifying will definitely not be optimistic."

Lucescu said what he said was his heart.

When the lottery results came out, Zhang Yang said that Mirvoir had a good draw, and Lucescu was a little dissatisfied, but the Donetsk miners were not a strong team. He did not have the confidence of Valencia coach Flores, so he just smiled and did not respond.
