Chapter 87: The Fourth Bullet of the Devil's Schedule


The four UEFA Cup finals have all ended.

Another Spanish team, Villarreal, lost 0:2 to AZ Alkmaar in an away game.

Newcastle, led by Shearer, was massacred 4:1 by Sporting Lisbon in the away game.

In the last game, CSKA Moscow tied with Auxerre 0:0 in the away game.

The teams that successfully advanced to the semi-finals are: AZ Alkmaar, Sporting Lisbon, CSKA Moscow, and Valencia.

The semi-finals are on April 15th and 16th and April 23rd and 24th respectively.

The teams they face are: AZ Alkmaar vs Sporting Lisbon, CSKA Moscow vs Valencia.

German newspapers praised the Spanish team without reservation.

As Valencia is a local team in Spain, how could the Spanish media not report it diligently?

As the Valencian Sports Newspaper with the best sales in the Valencia region, it first congratulated Valencia for advancing to the semi-finals of the UEFA Cup in the 2040 season, and then used "painful promotion" to describe the team's current situation.

The attachment clearly expresses the unfavorable sentiment, “Although Valencia has advanced to the semi-finals of this season’s UEFA Cup, we are missing a captain and a head coach, which makes the next round of competition cold.

Moscow is full of suspense” Since Valencia defeated the leader Barcelona in the last round of the league, Real Madrid was only one point behind Barcelona.

Therefore, Marca, which is more pro-Real Madrid, first gave a fair evaluation of Valencia after this UEFA Cup final of 14.

In this game, "Valencia's spirit of never giving up is just like our traditional matador spirit.

It will not give up the game for objective reasons.

When Vicente's goal helped the team equalize the score This was reflected at this moment.

Then the referee gave Valencia the death penalty.

A penalty kick and a red card are a disaster for any team, and the head coach was also sent to the stands for protesting.

At this time, our The former national goalkeeper Canizares, known as the Dragon, stepped forward.

He saved the Italian striker Gilardino's penalty kick and saved Valencia from sinking.

Then the amazing boy Ai's outstanding performance provided a big assist.

David Silva equalized the score" The reports of Aspen and Marca are somewhat similar, which can be regarded as a small contribution to Spanish football.

What is more special is Mundo Deportivo, the local Catalan newspaper that recently had a feud with Aiello.

They used "Valencia Escaped from Death" as the title, and the picture is of Baraja and Ranie.

Leigh was sent off with a red card as the background, with a bright red 2:2 on his head, and the text read: "This is a tragic event."

As the only remaining team in Spain, it has cast a shadow on next month's semi-finals.

Neither the team captain nor the head coach will be able to appear in the away game against CSKA Moscow.

As a mainstream European football team, The team’s death zone, will cold Moscow become the end of Valencia?”

It seems that they are worried about Valencia, but in fact they are looking down on Valencia.

Only inferior teams will worry about objective reasons.

It also fully highlights that Valencia has paid a heavy price in order to advance.

Subsequently, Daily Sports also reprinted this article from World Sports.

After last night's game, the referee wrote down Ranieri's insulting gestures and insults in the post-match report, so that night UEFA staff conducted an investigation through the game video.

The next day, UEFA sent the fine to the Valencia club by fax.

Baraja's one-match ban remains unchanged, but head coach Ranieri was banned by UEFA for six intercontinental competitions organized by UEFA and fined 50,000 euros for his insulting gestures and insults towards the referee.

However, he can appeal.

Now that UEFA allows the appeal, the Valencia club will certainly not give up the appeal.

A six-game ban in European competitions is definitely a fatal blow.

The UEFA Cup has entered the semi-finals.

The next game is about to face CSKA Moscow, a super tough team.

The head coach will miss two rounds of the game.

This is undoubtedly a fatal blow to the team.

To take a step back, if the UEFA Cup does not reach the final, but it will participate in the UEFA Champions League next season, the head coach will not be able to sit in the key group matches of the first four rounds.

This is not what the Valencia club executives want to see. .

Therefore, on the day it received the fine, Valencia sent the club's appeal materials via fax.

With Angulo and Aimar returning from injury, Andy and Pisson, who were promoted from the youth team, were sent back to the youth team.

This made Aiello, David Silva and Albiol, who were also promoted from the youth team, unhappy.

However, there is nothing that can be done about it.

The youth team is originally to provide fresh blood to the first team.

When the main players return from injury, they will naturally have to make room.

This is a world of the jungle, and Ai Luo, who has been born in two generations, knows this very well.

That’s okay, so I’ll be unhappy if I’m unhappy, but I won’t show it.

On the morning of March 12th, Valencia started the day's training.

As two powerful players Angulo and Aimar returned from injury, the team's combat effectiveness increased sharply.

However, head coach Ranieri and assistant Coach Benetti is in trouble with happiness.

Nowadays, they are naturally aware of Aiello's fiery state.

Apart from Angulo, Aimar was purchased by Valencia for a total of 25 million euros in real money a few years ago. players, with top salaries, this is something that the coach cannot ignore.

Aimar returned from injury in excellent condition, and even scored a goal with a through ball in the team game.

At this moment, Ranieri's eyes lit up Angulo, Vicente, and Aimar couldn't move, but center Ferrer could move, so he then adjusted the lineup, "Hey, Ai will play Albert's position, Guillen will play the left winger, and Miguel will Playing as a right winger, Pablo is the attacking midfielder, and the two defensive midfielders are David and Ruben.”

After a while, Ranieri's brows frowned.

Pulling Aiello to the center position can indeed maximize his offensive ability, but Ranieri ignored one point, that is, Aiello needs space, and the space for movement pinned him to the center position. , and also limits his potential to the greatest extent.

Aiello is the kind of player who needs space for him to start.

If you press him in the opponent's penalty area, he will quickly lose himself.

Although at the beginning, he used his turning speed to quickly wipe out Navarro's defense and score a single goal, but in the subsequent time, under Navarro's concentrated defense and constant small moves, he was like an eagle without wings, unable to spread its wings.

Soaring, you will not be able to use your greatest advantage, speed.

Seeing this, Ranieri fell into deep thought again.

What Ranieri didn't know was that while he was worrying about the team's main lineup, Valencia club president Soler was discussing the possibility of firing him with general manager Caponi.

"I think we made a wrong choice by re-hiring Ranieri."

After Caponi came to Soler's office, he got straight to the point.

"Well, how do you say this?"

Soler did not directly answer Caponi's words, but asked him instead.

Capponi was helpless towards the new chairman who only took office last year.

He could only curse the old fox secretly, "The appeal to UEFA was rejected, which means that at least Ranieri will not be available for the first three group matches of the UEFA Champions League next season."

There is no way to participate, so” "So you want to take the opportunity to change the head coach," Soler said with a smile, crossing his legs.

"yes" When Caponi was about to speak, Soler quickly raised his right arm slightly, and the former immediately put what he was about to say in his stomach.

"Has anyone chosen yet?"

"have" "Oh who?"

Now Solar became interested and sat up straight.

"Quick Flores" After Solar heard the name, he felt it was familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while.

He pressed his temples out of habit, and suddenly remembered it, and asked tentatively, "Been playing in Valencia."

Decade of Quique Flores” "Yeah" Caponi nodded.

"Where do you have your coaching experience now?"

Soler asked, and then added, "What's the approximate salary?"

Caponi almost rolled his eyes and fainted.

The boss is indeed the boss, and what he values ​​​​is always the salary given to his employees.

"He is now coaching Getafe and has achieved good results.

He is currently ranked 12th in the league.

There is no need to worry about his experience.

He is from the Real Madrid B team like his predecessor Benitez.

The salary is not high, it should be 1.5 million.

You can do it with euros."

As a qualified professional manager, Caponi should answer the boss's questions carefully.

Afterwards, Solaire fell into deep thought for a short time.

"Well, how about this?

Let's wait until the end of the season to change the new coach.

It's still early."

Soler sighed, waved his hand after a while, and said slowly.

Although Soler is the chairman of the club and should be concerned about the club's performance, he is first and foremost a businessman.

Ranieri's liquidated damages are not low, and he is currently leading the team to play well, ranking third in the league.

Without a suitable excuse, Soler will not fire Ranieri easily.

"Well, if there's nothing wrong with that, I'll leave first.

You're busy."

Seeing that Soler was a little impatient, Caponi said goodbye to Chairman Soler.

After Caponi left, Soler came to the window of the office, looked at the first team training ground, and murmured, "Is it better to change the head coach or keep Ranieri?"

Solaire fell into thought again.

In his eyes, the Champions League is undoubtedly a very big cake.

Needless to say, the club’s income has increased.

Every season, countless teams compete for the Champions League seats.

It is conceivable that the prize money of the Champions League is How crazy.

If it was before the 14th match of the UEFA Cup, or if Ranieri had not impulsively insulted the referee, Soler would definitely have kept Ranieri 100%.

After all, his results are there, but Valencia next This season we have to participate in the Champions League.

If Ranieri stays, there will be no head coach for at least the first three rounds.

This will put the club in a passive position in the group stage.

Whether it can qualify is a big question mark.

This is something Soler, as a successful businessman, does not want to see.

On the day of the game, the Mestalla Stadium was packed with fans, both from fans of the home team Valencia and from the visiting team Atletico Madrid.

They formed a square array of orange and red and white in the stands, filling the entire Mestalla stadium.

This is the focus of this round of the league.

Whether it is Barcelona and Real Madrid, the top two, or Villarreal, which is fourth, they are paying great attention to this game.

Especially Villarreal, because they played the first round of the league yesterday afternoon and unexpectedly lost 1:2 to the relegation team Levante in the away game.

This made them pay special attention to this game.

Therefore, this game The game can also see a handful of Villarreal fans wearing yellow jerseys sitting in the stands to cheer for Valencia
