The media throughout the Madrid area are discussing tomorrow's La Liga match.
Getafe plays Sevilla at home.
Pre-match analysis showed that the media were overwhelmingly optimistic that Sevilla, currently ranked first in the league, would defeat Getafe.
After all, Getafe Club has given up its desperate struggle and is waiting for the debt to mature and for the bank to take back ownership.
This news is a fatal blow to the Getafe team and the last straw for them.
It is not difficult to predict Getafe's performance, it will definitely be the same as before... no, it should be worse than before.
Because they are completely finished!
Not to mention that Sevilla performed strongly after Caparros took over. Now they have regained their first place in the league. They have strong troops. In addition, in the first half of the season, Sevilla lost 0:3 at home.
Gave it to Getafe.
That game also caused a lot of controversy.
Sevilla must want revenge.
This means that they will never show mercy in the away game. Even if Getafe has no fighting spirit, they will slaughter their opponents to their heart's content, just to avenge their past humiliation.
The club is ruined, the team's morale has collapsed, and the opponent has a strong desire for revenge... There is no suspense in this game, so what else is there to watch?
But even so, there are still many media coming to pay attention to this game.
After all, this is a "strong dialogue" between the first league and the third league, although one of the "strong" words needs quotation marks.
Another very important reason is that these reporters will not miss any opportunity to ridicule Chang Sheng.
Didn’t that bastard Chang Sheng speak arrogantly?
Are you saying that you want to slap us in the face with a league championship and make us regret it?
Then let's just watch his idiotic joke in this game.
With the mentality of watching the winning joke, no less than 30 reporters came to the press conference before the game.
It is rare to see so many reporters in the second division league. Only the focus of the battle in the second division league can enjoy this kind of treatment.
However, Sevilla's head coach Caparros remained calm in the face of such a big battle. This was the only thing that made reporters feel that there was a flaw in the ointment - he did not make any bold words to provoke further war of words between the two sides.
He still looked calm.
But reporters always have a way to get Caparros to speak for them, or to tell them what they want to hear.
The media interpreted Caparros's calmness as a heartfelt disdain and contempt for Getafe - you see, people don't care about the arrogance that your Getafe coach has made before, and he wants to anger the opponent with his delusion of winning.
Unexpectedly, it hit an iron plate. Is it deflated now?
According to the media, Chang Sheng is best at using all kinds of wild words to provoke the anger of the opponent's head coach, causing the opponent to lose his cool. And he himself can take advantage of this opportunity.
But now that Caparos doesn't want to do this at all, what chance does he have of winning?
The only attempt failed!
Next, just wait and see his jokes.
When I thought of this, the reporters were filled with a relaxed and happy mood.
Getafe really can't die this time.
If nothing else goes wrong, in another month and a half, their debt will be due. By then, Flores will have nothing and he can only be kicked out of the club. Getafe will be repossessed by the bank. At the same time,
Freezing all activities of the previous club directors, the club will then listen to only one person, their appointed interim president. He will temporarily take charge of the club until the bank finds a new owner for the club.
But during this period, all the temporary head can do is maintain the basic operations of the club and ensure that the club does not become abandoned.
As for things like transfers, signings, etc., don't even think about spending money, of course. Sponsorships must be done, otherwise the whole club will starve to death.
When the bank temporarily manages the club, they will also pay everyone's salary, but this salary will eventually become the team's debt and be rolled into the previous debt.
Therefore, if the new owner wants to bear as little debt as possible, it must take action.
Atletico Madrid's strong lineup last season was downgraded due to this trusteeship matter.
No one here believed that the ever-victorious Getafe could break this rule and survive.
Even if they don't get relegated, there's no hope of promotion, let alone the league championship!
Winning is really a daydream!
The atmosphere in Sevilla's press conference is relaxed now, but Getafe's pre-match press conference will not be so cheerful later.
After Sevilla coach Caparros left the press conference, the reporters who stayed began to wonder how they would be ridiculed and ridiculed at the press conference for a while.
Many plans have popped up in their smart minds. They are guaranteed to make the most shameless person in the world die of shame.
But they didn't wait to win.
When Manuel Garcia appeared in front of the reporters, he could clearly see the shocked expressions on their faces. These reporters may not have expected that Chang Sheng would shrink his head before such an important game. turtle!
He didn't come to the pre-match press conference.
Manuel Garcia understands the approach of always winning, and no one would want to be humiliated.
But he didn't care about the reporters' ridicule, so he strode up to the podium and said to a group of stunned reporters below: "I have been assigned to represent the team at the pre-match press conference. You can ask me any questions you have. "
A reporter reacted first from the shock and shouted: "What's the reason? What's the reason why he didn't attend the press conference?!"
Manuel Garcia looked calm: "No reason is needed."

Chang Sheng and Rudy Gonzalez are leading the team to adapt to the field training at the Alfonso Perez Stadium.
Rudy asked him: "Why don't you go by yourself again? Don't you like to exchange insults with reporters the most?"
Chang Sheng shrugged: "I'm too lazy to pay attention to them."
"Why?"
"Because I think silence is more powerful than noise at this time. Everything that needs to be done has been done, and everything that needs to be said has been said. It's just a waste of time just repeating those clichés." Chang Sheng said this, He looked up towards the stands.
The Alfonso Pérez Stadium is really not a big stadium. Even for the winner in his previous life, he has never been to any stadium to watch games. He only learned about European stadiums through live TV broadcasts. He also feels that Getafe The stadium can only be said to be small. It is not even considered medium-sized. For stadiums that often attract 50,000 or 60,000 people from wealthy clubs, Alfonso Pérez Stadium can be called a mini.
But even for such a small stadium, it is not easy to fill all the seats.
In his opinion, only the last few games to avoid relegation last season and some games in the first half of this season were all filled. For example, the game against Atletico Madrid was full.
But other times, such opportunities are few and far between.
He issued a mobilization order on the radio, and Enrique and the others were helping to connect. But how many fans would listen to him and come to watch the game?
In recent home games, fewer and fewer Getafe fans have come to watch the games. Obviously, the team's poor results and the club's uncertain future have caused many people to lose interest in coming to watch the games.
Tomorrow, if it is still like the previous home games, the crowd in the stands is sparse, scattered here and there, like a maniac. How will he face it?
In this case, do you still have the confidence to tell the players that they want to fight for the fans?
Despite Chang Sheng always showing confidence in front of others, he has an inexplicable self-confidence.
But at this time, he felt very uneasy inside.
He did everything he had to do, even going on the radio to deliver a war mobilization speech. What else could he do?
He has done everything he can to obey fate. Now he has done everything he can. Now he needs to obey fate.
God, do you want me to die or not?
We'll find out tomorrow.

Since Caparros took over Sevilla, he has vigorously promoted young players in the B team. For example, Reyes has given more trust and playing opportunities. And these young players did not disappoint Caparros who believed in them.
, helped Sevilla catch up with Getafe, and finally succeeded in surpassing Getafe.
Sevilla's outstanding performance in the league has made many Sevilla fans full of optimistic expectations for this game.
Not just fans. Many Sevilla players see it this way.
For Sevilla, there is no suspense in this game.
Since Getafe's economic crisis broke out, whoever encounters Getafe in the league is lucky, which means they can get three points for free.
From players to ordinary fans, everyone is already thinking about how they can expand their lead in the standings after winning against Getafe.
Sevilla is now seven points ahead of second place Real Betis and eight points ahead of Getafe. This point advantage is quite large. If they can win this game, they will be 11 points ahead of Getafe.
.
The victor who always boasted that his team could still win the league championship?
The gap of eleven points, how to catch up?!
Caparros was very calm at the pre-match press conference, but the Sevilla fans couldn't be calm. They had long been unhappy with Chang Sheng's words. But they had no say, so they could only speak privately.
The people below are scolding Chang Sheng, but they cannot be put on the stage or published in newspapers, and Chang Sheng cannot be seen or heard.
This is somewhat depressing.
Now they are not depressed anymore.
They can use the victory in this game to spit out the victory: "You are the only one who still wants to win the first division championship? Have you asked us?"
The only pity is that this game is away from home, and they cannot turn the entire stadium into a hell that makes Getafe terrified.
Let this victory not be perfect, there are regrets.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the warm sunshine is shining on people's bodies, making people just want to lie on the chair and listen to the soft music from the radio. It is best to do nothing.
"Daniel Time, Getafe's hottest, funniest and most entertaining program, Daniel Time!" Daniel Robbio Velasco's voice rang on many radios at the same time.
"Today, the theme of our program is - will you go to Alfonso Perez Stadium to watch the afternoon game? Everyone is welcome to call and communicate with Daniel..."
Daniel Robbio Velasco's voice continued on the radio, but the people outside the radio didn't pay attention to him. They seemed extremely busy.
"Are the banners ready?"
"Ready!"
"Where's the slogan? And our flag! Check it one last time before setting off! Make sure everything is perfect!"
At the headquarters of the Blue Army, the cadres were loudly reminding everyone to be prepared. Everyone was busy with their own things. They had run away and had no time to listen to their favorite "Daniel Time".
"By the way, who has seen Kike?" someone was asking.
"I don't know. I didn't pay attention..."
"Damn it, where did he go when he was so busy..."
Enrique Gonzalez was hiding in an inconspicuous corner. He was on the phone: "Hey, is it me? Is it me, Daniel?"
"Yes. It's you, my dear friend. You are the lucky first friend to enter our program. Do you have anything to say?"
※※※
"My name is Enrique Gonzalez. Everyone calls me Kick. I am a Getafe fan. I will definitely go to watch this game..." Enrique came from the radio.
Gonzalez's voice was somewhat noisy because it was relayed over the phone.
"I also hope that everyone can go to the scene to support our team, even though the team's current state is very bad. But because of this, we must support them even more. Because if we don't support them, then they can
It’s really over. And when the team is over, what can we fans do? If the team is over, will we be happy and happy?”
In the abandoned warehouse at the base of the Blue Commandos, the afternoon sunlight slanted in through the glassless windows, dividing the dark warehouse space.
Dozens of key members gathered together. Their leader Alfaro Rios stood on a table. A ray of light came in from a high window, covering him and the table under his feet.
It gives people the feeling that Alfaro Rios is the focus of the stage and the protagonist.
"Guys!" the protagonist yelled. "Today is a good day!! We are about to welcome the self-righteous league number one at home! We must give those Andalusian bitches some color! We want to
Tear their bodies apart! Trample them under our feet! Let those Andalusian idiots realize whose territory this is!"
"It's us! It's the Blue Commando! It's the Blue Commando!" Everyone looked up at him. They waved their fists and shouted like this. Their faces were as full as Alfaro Rios's.
With a fervent expression, there were flames beating in his eyes.
"Yes! We are going to make Alfonso Pérez Stadium a hell! Kill all the enemies here! This is our war! Kill-kill-them!!"
"kill--!!!"
The roars of the enthusiastic fans even disrupted the airflow, and the droplets of dust in the light pillars flew wildly.
The radio was chattering in the corner next to it, but no one paid any attention to it.
※※※
"I read the media reports and they were laughing at us. They said that Getafe only has so many fans and they often put their hope in a group of pauper fans... Yes, we Getafe fans are just like our team.
, are paupers, because none of us are rich. We can't save our team with money, but we have another way to save the team, that is to go to watch the game live! Use our voices! We
The gestures, our slogans, banners, flags... support them with everything we can! Support our own team!”
At the potato and egg pancake bar that Chang Sheng often went to, people kept coming in, but no one came out.
They were not here to eat, but rather they seemed to be gathering, waiting for a certain moment.
After they met, they hugged each other warmly and greeted each other loudly, as if they were old friends they hadn't seen for many years. In fact, they were indeed old friends they hadn't seen for many years. Many of them had not seen each other for several years, and they were far apart.
He has his own family, life, career, and other messy things.
There is only one reason why they can be reunited - to go there to cheer for Getafe.
The bar owner hung a sign outside the bar that read, "Business is closed today. Go to the Alfonso Pérez Stadium to cheer for Getafe and it is more important than making money!"
※※※
"Each of us is certainly insignificant, not a rich man, not a politician, not a celebrity, not a star... Each of us is like a stream worth mentioning. But guys, I firmly believe that no matter how vast the ocean is,
, are all formed by the convergence of countless inconspicuous streams! Today, let us, these insignificant and insignificant streams, gather together and form a vast ocean! Let us completely submerge Seville!"
When Enrique Gonzalez finished speaking, Daniel was uncharacteristically silent for a moment, and then said: "Thank you Kick, what you said is great! The final destination of every stream is to flow into the sea, but every ocean
They are all formed by streams... So, listeners, today, at the Alfonso Pérez Stadium, let us become the ocean!"
※※※
The game started at half past five in the afternoon. But at three o'clock, many fans had already walked out of their homes and onto the streets.
They wore uniform blue Getafe jerseys and had Getafe blue scarves on their arms.
Although there were still two and a half hours before the start of the game, Getafe fans could no longer bear it. Urged by the fire in their hearts, they set off for the Alfonso Pérez Stadium in the north of Getafe.
.
They opened the door. At first there were only one or two people, two or three people, three or five people. When they walked downstairs, they turned into more than a dozen people.
When they passed a street and turned an intersection, they turned into dozens of people.
As they passed through a block and several streets, a team of dozens of people gathered at every intersection. They became more than a hundred people.
Then, there were hundreds of people.
Then, there were thousands of people.
Getafe fans are like emerging from caves in the earth. They emerge from every corner of the city. They appear, then gather, and then walk side by side towards the stadium in the north.
In this process, more and more people joined in, and the number of people increased. The creek turned into a river, and the streets of Getafe turned into a river bed. They were attracted by these Getafe fans who were like blue flowing water.
Fill up.
In the end, they were no longer rivers, they were floods, mighty floods!
As we get closer to Alfonso Pérez Stadium, the momentum of this flood becomes more and more alarming.
I don't know where it started, but someone started singing Getafe's team song, and more people joined in, eventually turning into a roaring momentum.
The song echoed over the city of Getafe.
At the end of the song, they began to chant slogans: "Come on! Getafe! Forward, Dark Blue Army! Come on, Getafe! Forward! Dark Blue Army!!"
Fans chanted, clapped and waved their arms in unison, just like they did in the stadium stands, except they turned the streets into stands.
This torrent finally gathered in front of the square in front of Alfonso Perez Stadium. They stopped and looked from the air. The afternoon sun shone on each of them, and their blue jerseys reflected the sunlight.
, like a sparkling, undulating blue ocean.
"Oh my god..." The host of a TV station that was doing a live broadcast outside the Alfonso Perez Stadium suddenly looked in the direction behind the camera in a daze and opened his mouth.
"What's wrong, Miguel?" came the question from the host behind the headset. "Have you seen aliens? Ha!"
The host was still teasing the reporter in front of him, but when the picture in front of him moved quickly and froze, he couldn't laugh anymore. Like Miguel, the reporter in front of him, he stared blankly at the camera.
The picture shown to him was beyond words.
In the footage, countless Getafe fans are emerging from every street and pouring towards the stadium from all directions.
They were densely packed, singing songs, shouting slogans and waving their arms.
Step by step towards the stadium, towards the reporters, towards the camera, it was like an army was pressing down on the situation, which made people stop breathing.
They are all Getafe fans.
They are ordinary fans who are dismissed by the media.
They heard the call for victory. They responded to his call and came.
Then he appeared in front of reporters' cameras, making everyone who saw this scene feel suffocated.
※※※
Although Lemon really doesn't want to be tortured in front of the TV.
But when the game time came, he still turned on the TV, just like a conditioned reflex.
Then he sat on the sofa, looking at the TV screen that was gradually lighting up, and listening to the cheers coming from the speakers... Huh?
It doesn't seem right.
His TV always displays the picture first and then the sound. There is a delay between the sound and the picture.
But now the screen is still flickering, why did the sound come out first?
Only then did he realize that the sound should not come from the TV.
So he listened carefully. Then he discovered that the noise was coming from the nearby Alfonso Perez Stadium!
He suddenly thought of something and jumped up from the sofa and rushed towards the window. Then he saw a scene that he would never forget - the square outside the Alfonso Perez Stadium was full of people! There were dense crowds of people and people.
Blue Getafe jerseys, they are connected together, like an undulating ocean!
This scene is enough to make people with trypophobia feel sick, but it makes Lemon stand on the spot!
You must know that in the last round of the league, which was also at home, Getafe lost to Murcia 2:4. In that game, the Alfonso Pérez Stadium was as quiet as a dead place.
In the past few games, the attendance at Alfonso Perez Stadium was even worse than the previous one. It is obvious that the fans have also lost confidence...
It seems that he is not the only one suffering from game day blues.
But now, they are all here! They fill the square in front of Alfonso Pérez Stadium! They will also fill the stands of Alfonso Pérez Stadium!
The media are right. The number of members in Getafe is only 12,000, while the Alfonso Pérez Stadium can accommodate more than 18,000 people. Even if all the members go, there will not be enough seats in the stadium stands.
.
But now... there are a lot of Getafe fans who are not members and they are all here! They are not filling the Alfonso Pérez Stadium, they are going to flood it!
Lemon, who was frightened by this scene, thought of Chang Sheng's "championship appointment". He thought of Chang Sheng's mobilization on the radio...
Did these people really listen to him? They all went!
I haven’t seen this scene for more than a month, right?
How did Alfonso Pérez Stadium regain its former vitality?
Chang actually mobilized every corner of the city!
He suddenly felt that as Chang Sheng's neighbor, he actually didn't know Chang Sheng at all and didn't care enough...
※※※
Francisco Flores and the president of Sevilla walked out of the tunnel and onto the rostrum.
When he saw the stadium completely full, he was stunned.
The atmosphere in the stadium was so lively and exciting that it felt like Getafe had been upgraded...
He was shocked and incredulous.
Getafe is like this now. It stands to reason that the number of fans coming to watch every game should be getting smaller and smaller.
But this game made Alfonso Perez Stadium full!
He thought of the radio program in which Chang Sheng called on Getafe fans to take action.
I didn't expect these fans to actually come...
Chang, that guy... really did it!
Such a large number of fans and such a lively atmosphere are the only things Flores has seen this season. Let alone this season, he has been in charge of Getafe for nine years, and he has never seen a scene like today so many times...
…
I don't know why, but when he saw this scene, his originally shrunken and depressed body seemed to be injected with a force, and his waist straightened up.
Then he turned to look at Sevilla Club President Robert Els next to him.
It was discovered that Els was also shocked by the scene in front of him.
Such a fanatical and terrifying home atmosphere is rare even at the Pizjuan Stadium...
Then Flores laughed.
He took the initiative to reach out his hand and said to Els with high spirits: "Welcome to Alfonso Perez Stadium, Mr. Els!"
Vicente Moscodo was also stunned when he saw the scene in the stadium stands.
However, he regained consciousness after a brief period of confusion.
They're just a bunch of ignorant fans... Even if they call this stadium down, it won't help!
Fans' enthusiasm will soon be dampened by the team's poor performance!
When they found that their cheers could not help the team win a game. All their passion was burned in this game, and all that was left was ruins. By then, I'm afraid they won't be here anymore. So many people came out to support the team.
Of course he knew that these were all shouted by Chang Sheng.
But in his opinion, they are really just struggling. He doesn't believe that Getafe, the loser dog, can defeat Sevilla, who are first in the league and with great momentum, at home!
Looking at the boss's high-spirited look made him even more unhappy.
In more than a month, this damn annoying old man will be gone. Although the bank will send an agent by then, he will be the one who is actually in charge of the team. The trustee generally will not interfere with the team. It's operational, as long as it doesn't involve the bottom line.
So he, Moscodo, will soon become a decisive figure in this club! By then, no one will be able to tell him what to do!
Then let this game be the death knell for Flores...
※※※
Chang Sheng was sitting in the locker room with his players. The TV in the locker room was on, and the pre-match program for this game was playing on it.
"This is the scene from earlier..." the host said, and the scene cut to the square of Alfonso Perez Stadium.
The sun was brighter and brighter than now, and it was obvious that this was indeed a scene half an hour ago.
There were not many people in the square yet, but soon, countless fans wearing Getafe's blue jerseys poured out from all directions, and the slogans they chanted could be heard clearly even through the TV.
"Come on! Getafe! Forward! Blue Army!!"
"These fans seem to have emerged from every corner of the city, and then they gathered together along the way, from scratch to something. From a few to many, they gathered into a tower..." The host's commentary started. "They marched through every street in the city of Getafe and finally arrived here... To be honest, I was really shocked after seeing this scene. I didn't expect Chang to actually call for the team. So many fans! I started to worry whether the Alfonso Pérez Stadium could accommodate so many people... Maybe many of them didn't have tickets at all and couldn't enter the stadium at all... But they still came, and they used practical Action comes to show support for Getafe!"
Chang Sheng watched the scenes on the TV. He saw the fans marching on the streets. He saw the fans gathering from different directions and then continuing to move towards the same direction and goal.
He couldn't help but clenched his fists.
They are coming! They have lived up to my trust and are here!
The closed door to the locker room cannot shut out the sounds outside. Everyone can hear the cheers and singing coming from the stands... Those are their Getafe fans!
Everyone in the locker room was breathing much heavier, and many people clenched their fists.
Chang Sheng turned his head and looked at the team members who were gritting their teeth, looking rosy, eyes wide open, and fists clenched.
They were obviously deeply affected by the actions of these fans.
Strength, courage, and love have been passed from the fans to these players...
He said: "Seeing this scene, I think there is no need for me to say more, right? How honored we are to fight desperately for such fans? They did not let us down, and now it is our turn not to let them down.
Now. I don’t think I need to tell you what to do anymore, right?"
Pedro Canizares suddenly stood up from his seat. The captain of the team turned red and shouted: "Getafe! Fight-fight-!!"
"Fight!!!" Others stood up one after another and shouted along with their captain. Whether they were old players, those trained by the Getafe youth academy, or those who just transferred to the team this season,
Even those who were rented... Everyone had red faces, veins popping out on their necks, and they opened their mouths and roared at the top of their lungs.
※※※
Sevilla's players were intimidated when they were not ready to warm up on the pitch.
Suddenly there was a huge roar in the stands, like thunder on the ground, which startled the Sevilla players.
They couldn't help but look up at the stands and found that everything in their eyes was blue.
Thick and numerous Getafe fans.
They stood in the stands, waving their arms and chanting.
I was particularly excited when I saw the players from both sides warming up.
Various slogans and banners floated above the stands, all cheering for Getafe.
They tried to find the Sevilla fans, their only supporters, among these crowds, numbering only five hundred.
But they didn't find it.
Sevilla fans seemed completely submerged in this blue sea.
Some of Sevilla's players have participated in the First Division. They have been to the Bernabeu, the home of Real Madrid, to the Camp Nou, the home of Barcelona, and to the Calderon, the home of Atletico Madrid...even their own
The home stadium, Pizjuan Stadium, is known for its terrifying home atmosphere.
But these Sevilla players were in disbelief at the scene in front of them, because the momentum emitted by the small Alfonso Pérez Stadium was not inferior to that of the Bernabeu, Camp Nou and Calderon.
Not losing to their Pizjuan Stadium.
How do these fans do it...
Sevilla's players suddenly felt panic.
When they were warming up on the court, they all seemed absent-minded and always looked up into the stands. The effect of this warm-up can be imagined.
Next to them, in the next half, the Getafe players turned a blind eye to all this, and they all lowered their heads and warmed up seriously.
Just like their head coach did not attend the pre-match press conference because he believed silence is more powerful than noise, today's players are also silent and accumulating strength.
If anyone thinks that such a group of people are harmless, then they will be in serious trouble.
Because each of them remembers what their head coach said to them before going out to warm up.
"Remember, guys, make those who hate us hate us more and give confidence and strength to those who support us! You can do it!"

ps, I wrote this chapter that moved me. Even if I reread this chapter today more than half a month later, it still makes me burst into tears and my nose is sore.
I loved this chapter, very much.
I had many images in my mind of Getafe fans pouring out of their homes and towards the Alfonso Pérez Stadium, and I wrote about them.
I think the true meaning of football lies in these ordinary fans.
It is they who hold up this sport, this industry, and countless dreams.
This chapter pays tribute to countless ordinary fans.
Of course, I also pay tribute to you, my dear readers.
You are my ocean, without you, I am nothing.
So...let's be the ocean!
Let’s drown out everything as we pursue our dreams this month!
Guys, fight-fight-!!!
