In two rounds, Mallorca has only the last game left this season - the final of the Copa del Rey, with Zaragoza, who defeated Atletico Madrid, which failed to attack La Liga this season, in two rounds, and the venue is at the Olympic Stadium in Sevilla.

For Zaragoza, who barely managed to successfully relegate, this season was undoubtedly a failure. Last season's fourth league fell to the 17th place in this season, and it is the team that has retreated the fastest in La Liga this season. The champion of the Copa del Rey will be their only hope and hope. [bsp;   This emotion is clearly expressed in Zaragoza.

After coming to Sevilla, Zaragoza head coach Costa said in an interview: "We are very grateful to Mallorca for defeating Ovito... However, this does not mean that we will hand over the Cup of Kings to Mallorca. Our performance this season is very bad. In order to give the fans an explanation, we are bound to win the Cup of Kings."

Costa’s words naturally have a necessary background - before the start of the last round, Zaragoza’s points were the same as Ovedo, and they were both weaker than Ovedo and Osasuna in their win-loss relationship. After a draw in the last round, Zaragoza’s situation was actually the most dangerous, because as long as Osasuna wins and Ovedo draws, they will be the ones who are relegated - Fortunately, Mallorca still defeated Ovedo when only one draw is needed, and Zaragoza finally succeeded in relegation with one point advantage. From this perspective, Zaragoza really needs to thank Mallorca...

"We didn't beat Ovedo for Zaragoza. We would win against any team Mallorca. At the same time, we would not want Zaragoza to give us the championship in the Copa del Rey. If we need it, we will get it ourselves without any team giving it to us."

Jose quickly responded, and this answer made Mallorca fans feel extremely excited - yes, do we need someone else to give us something? We will get what we want ourselves! Don’t forget, we are the runner-up of La Liga, and what about you? It’s just the team that is ranked 17th in La Liga, barely successful in relegation!

However, Jose knew very well that this game would not be as suspense as the rankings between the two, and the gap between the two sides in this game would not be as huge as the rankings between the two!

It is true that Zaragoza played badly this season, but they were the fourth place last season, and there was no loss in personnel. In fact, Zaragoza was unlucky this season because they basically used the original team. Last season, this group of people performed extremely well in Zaragoza and got a historic chance to enter the Champions League, but because of the persuasion of the Spanish Football Association, they gave up the quota for the Champions League and played the League Cup (really obedient)

I don't know if I was willing to do so. The club's decision was mostly taken into consideration by various situations. Whether it is for the glory of La Liga, or for making good friends with Real Madrid and giving face to the Spanish Football Association, they must have their own considerations. However, the players are different! They worked hard to make the top four and achieved such good results, but were given away by the club's light favor. What's the point of playing the game?

You should know that even if the income of the Champions League has no impact on these players in terms of income, as long as they are a somewhat ambitious player, they will not be eager to shine on a larger stage. Now that this opportunity is deprived, what kind of fighting spirit can the players have?

Jose didn't know what Zaragoza's management was thinking at the time, but if it were him, even if he had broken up with the Spanish Football Association, he would not agree to give up the quota - the quota is a small matter, the key is that the club's image has been affected, and even the qualification to participate in the Champions League can be given as a favor. What future will this club have? This image is not something that money can get...

Later there was another example, that is, after Liverpool won the Champions League in 2005, Everton, who ranked fourth in the Premier League at that time, gave up the quota of the Champions League. However, Everton refused to give up and finally forced UEFA to agree to add a special place to Liverpool to participate in the qualifiers for the Champions League, and re-stated the qualification for the Champions League, that is, the regulations for the defending champion to enter the Champions League next season. However, if the defending champion is a team outside the Champions League area of ​​the league, the Champions League teams participating in the Champions League will automatically cut one.

Although Everton failed to enter the Champions League group stage in the end and failed to show the grand occasion of five teams appearing in the Champions League group stage, after all, they maintained their dignity and maintained the image of the club. At this time, what Everton cares about is no longer the benefits of the Champions League, but the image of the entire club, which is also what Jose values.

Of course, maybe that has something to do with the Evertons not being able to swallow that breath - they are Liverpool's mortal enemies in the same city. They have worked hard to make it to the Champions League, but they have to give up their qualifications to the mortal enemies in the same city? What a joke!

So at that time, the FA was not stupid enough to persuade Everton to the club, and Liverpool did not expect Everton to give it to them. In the end, UEFA made concessions. In order to avoid the embarrassing situation of the defending champion being unable to participate in the Champions League, there was a case in point.

It is precisely because of Zaragoza's approach that the players feel that even if they win the game, it doesn't make any sense. This makes Zaragoza's performance plummet this season and he finally barely succeeded in relegation. This does not mean that they only have the strength of the relegation team. In fact, their strength is still among the top in La Liga. In the face of the honor of the Copa del Rey, Zaragoza's players also seem more fighting spirit - at the relegation moment, they also seem very fighting spirit.

Although he did not underestimate his opponent, Jose was not worried. After all, Mallorca is very good now and in good condition. Although the intensive schedule before made Mallorca players a little uncomfortable, after all, their consumption this season is not too large, and there is no problem with physical fitness.

"Zarragoza's style of play is relatively balanced. Their defense is not very good, and the offense is not very sharp and stable. So we cannot drag it with them in this game, use offense and attack to suppress their attacks, and at the same time tear open their defenses and make a big splash to win this game!"

At the pre-match preparation meeting, Jose told the coaches that when dealing with such a relatively balanced team, it is not possible to have a tug-of-war with the opponent in a stern manner, because that is a familiar situation for the opponent. For Mallorca, their outstanding thing now lies in their frontcourt offense. Jose wants to use his best part to defeat the opponent's defense in one go!

Specific tactics can only be useful when dealing with specific teams. When dealing with ordinary teams, they can play their most threatening points, and then they can be smoothed out in one go - this is the combat method of the wealthy teams. Jose believes that even if Mallorca is not a wealthy family, it is not far from the wealthy family.

Mallorca fans are even more convinced that their team will win the first King's Cup in the history of the club. Nearly 20,000 fans arrived in Sevilla to cheer for Mallorca. Although the number of fans who support Mallorca is not as large as those who support Zaragoza, the Mallorca fans who came to the scene will definitely not be fewer than those who are Zaragoza!

Although it was just a final of the Cup of del Rey, it was a big day for Mallorca!

The day before the game started, Mallorca announced the starting lineup for this game!

Goalkeeper Franco, four defenders George, Nadal, Nino and Capdvilla, Mota, Karaze, Ibagasa, Ronaldo, forward Luke, Etoo!

The absolute appearance of all the main players demonstrates Mallorca's confidence in winning this game!

******************************************

"There are twenty minutes left. The last official game of this season is about to begin." Jose smiled at the players who had already warmed up in the locker room.

"This season is the middle of the way, but it has achieved such excellent results... I can only say that I am very happy to have this pleasant season with you."

When the players heard Jose say this, the players were a little confused - why did this sound like a farewell...

"Oh, don't get me wrong. Unless something happened to me in the summer, I will definitely be your head coach next season...but next season will be my first full coaching season, which is also a new challenge for me. So everyone, before I start a full coaching season, leave the best situation - in the future, maybe I can brag about others, saying that before I coach a full season, I won two heavyweight championships, last season's League Cup, and this season's..."

"Copa del Rey in Spain!" Mallorca's players shouted in unison and took his words back.

Looking at these energetic players, Jose laughed out loud.

"That's right! Use offense to win this championship! We have performed very well this season. We failed to win the league championship because we made some minor mistakes. We should be compensated! The championship in the Copa del Rey is our best compensation!"

Jose said these words shamelessly and righteously - there is no reason in the world of football that you will definitely be compensated if you perform well. However, in this case, what words can better raise the morale of the players than this?

No!

Football is a sport for men and a passionate sport. Sometimes it is necessary for this unreasonable spirit to inspire the most primitive wildness and fighting spirit to extend the players' hearts!

Looking at the players who had already begun to gradually flash with bloodthirsty light, Jose knew that the heat was almost enough.

While the iron was hot, Jose pointed to the door of the locker room suddenly: "Let's go now and get back the compensation we deserve!"

"Set out! Get back the compensation we deserve!" Captain Nadal on the field waved his arm, and then led a large group of murderous Mallorca players out of the locker room!

They are going to the court now to get back the compensation they deserve - as for whether they must have obtained it, they will not think about it at this time. Now they are thinking about one thing, that is, defeating their opponents and winning the Cup of Kings!

"Let's go, guys, get ready to welcome the first Spanish Cup of Del in our club history!"

Seeing that the players were all gone, Jose rose up, waved to the other assistant coaches in the locker room, and then said loudly.

When Jose was the first to walk out of the locker room, the assistant coaches looked at each other and followed Jose out of the locker room.

Yes, they are going to get back the compensation they deserve.
Chapter completed!
