When Chang Sheng returned home, he heard Lin Mo's reminder: "You have a new mission, Chang Sheng."
Chang Sheng quickly entered the system to check.
There is indeed one more task in the task log.
Mission: King.
Task content: You boast in front of a child that you want to win the King's Cup, proving to him that there are still miracles in this world... This is not an easy task, because Jonathan is right, whether it is Barcelona or
Mallorca is not an easy opponent to defeat. But there is a reason why you must do this, because in the eyes of your child, you are his hope for continuing to live. I wish you good luck.
Mission goal: Win the King's Cup.
Mission reward: One million experience points!
Energy four hundred!
Training skills: [Elementary tackling special training], [Elementary endurance special training], [Elementary strength special training], [Competition training tactics elementary].
Competition skill: [Great Wall of Flesh].
Competition skill [Great Wall of Flesh]?!
The last level 2 system competition skill!
Chang Sheng was stunned for a moment when he saw this.
He thought he was going to miss this skill.
It turned out that I was waiting here...
He secretly called him lucky.
If he had just given an autograph and asked Mediano to send it to him, there would not have been so many things that happened later. He would not have known what was going on with the little fan who was looking for his autograph.
Nor would he understand his pessimism.
And if he hadn't come with Avril, and Avril hadn't pointed out his mistakes, then he wouldn't have thought of using a King's Cup champion to bring hope to Jonathan.
Then he would not have received such a mission and would not have had the opportunity to obtain the skill [Great Wall of Flesh].
The origin of all this was just a thought he had at the beginning, and there were also many factors working together. For example, Avril Lavigne. If there was no Avril Lavigne, maybe he would just give the signature to the other party and it would be over. Although he would feel a little regretful in his heart, he would never feel angry.
The idea of repairing the situation before it is too late.
He suddenly felt that this mission system was a bit interesting.
A choice you make unintentionally, combined with various other factors, may trigger some tasks, not just as simple as letting you win the game.
There are many kinds of futures. He chose this one based on his own heart, which brought him many benefits.
※※※
Since Chang Sheng has said that he wants to win the King's Cup, he naturally has to work hard towards this goal. First of all, the semi-finals are a hurdle that must be faced.
He also has to study his opponents.
When he was watching the Zaragoza game video, he suddenly thought that if Getafe hadn't been there, Zaragoza would have won the Copa del Rey this season.
But now, it is obvious that Zaragoza can no longer win the Copa del Rey, and they cannot even advance to the finals.
There are many things he can't remember about this season's Copa del Rey.
For example, he doesn't remember the specific process, nor who are the participants in the finals.
But he still remembers who the final champion was.
It's Zaragoza.
The reason why I remember it is because in the second season, Zaragoza participated in the UEFA Cup, but was relegated in the league... They ranked last. The contrast was really huge and left a deep impression on people.
.
If we were talking about Zaragoza a season ago, we would really have to worry about winning often.
But now, he feels that he is very lucky.
A season ago, Zaragoza finished fourth in the league. It stands to reason that they should be able to participate in the Champions League. This is a great achievement for Zaragoza.
But because Real Madrid defeated Valencia 3-0 in the Champions League final this season and won the Champions League, Zaragoza's fate was rewritten.
At the time Zaragoza was fourth in the league and Real Madrid was fifth.
According to the rules, the top four teams in La Liga can qualify for the Champions League next season, with the third and fourth teams participating in the qualifying rounds and the top two teams directly participating in the main match.
Therefore, if Real Madrid does not win the Champions League, it will not be eligible to participate in the Champions League next season. For a giant like Real Madrid, this is also a great shame.
Fortunately, Real Madrid won the Champions League in the end.
But then came trouble.
Real Madrid is the winner of the Champions League and according to the rules, they can participate in the Champions League next season.
At the same time, the top four teams in the Spanish League also qualify for next season's Champions League.
But UEFA cannot give a country's league five Champions League places. At the same time, Real Madrid, as the defending champion, must appear in the Champions League next season... UEFA doesn't care, so only the Spanish Football Federation can resolve it through internal negotiations.
Real Madrid's influence in Spain is unparalleled, and Zaragoza, fourth in the league, has felt tremendous pressure from the beginning. If a team must step forward to make room for Real Madrid, then this team can only
Zaragoza, who is fourth, cannot make way for Valencia, who is third in the league, and Barcelona, who is second, right? It is even less possible for league champion Deportivo to make way.
But if Zaragoza insists on qualifying for next season's Champions League, things will become very difficult.
In the end, it was the Spanish royal family who came forward to let Zaragoza develop its style.
The Spanish royal family has come forward, what else can Zaragoza do? Although Real Madrid and Real Zaragoza both have a crown logo on their heads, they are both authentic "royal". But the royal family also comes in different sizes, and Real Madrid obviously
Taken more seriously than Real Zaragoza.
Zaragoza could only show off their style and gave up their hard-earned qualification for the Champions League.
Real Madrid is indeed the greatest team in European football. They replaced Zaragoza and they should have started from the qualifying round, but Real Madrid directly participated in the group stage. You must know that it also happened to Liverpool later.
In the same situation, Liverpool, the 2005 Champions League champion, failed to qualify for the Champions League despite being ranked in the league. Logically speaking, Everton should be allowed to follow Zaragoza's example and carry forward their style.
But Everton and Liverpool are mortal enemies. How could they sacrifice themselves to help their mortal enemies? So they were unwilling to give way to Liverpool even to the death, which made UEFA very embarrassed.
The English Football Association is not as cooperative as the Spanish Football Association. The Football Association has made it clear that it will not interfere and watch UEFA's jokes.
In the end, UEFA really had no choice. They had no choice but to issue a wild card to Liverpool, allowing them to participate in the Champions League in the new season. In this way, for the first time, a country's league has five teams participating in the Champions League at the same time.
In those few years, English teams had a strong momentum in the Champions League, but now five teams have entered at once. Isn't that a huge change?
UEFA will never allow one English team to dominate the Champions League.
In addition, in order to teach an unforgettable lesson to Everton who did not want to give them face, Everton was naturally deliberately killed by UEFA - they ran into the popular competition in the first round of qualifying.
Liarreal was eliminated. This is the result of offending UEFA.
Liverpool was placed in a group with Chelsea. It was the first time that teams from the same country met in the group stage. The explanation given by UEFA was that Liverpool was participating as a wild card and was not subject to this rule.
.But there were only four Premier League teams at that time, so it was easy to avoid them. Even if there were no restrictions on wild card participation, it was still quite difficult to meet the other three Premier League teams in a group.
Unexpectedly, Liverpool actually met Chelsea. In those years, Mourinho's Chelsea and Benitez's Liverpool had a deep grudge. This encounter was naturally full of gimmicks. If there was no human manipulation intervention, it would be
What a hell.
…
Back to Zaragoza.
They had worked hard all season, finally finished fourth in the league, and had the opportunity to participate in the Champions League next season. But they gave it up. This way of losing qualifications was a huge blow to the team.
They lost their Champions League qualification and lost their morale as a result.
Since then, Zaragoza's performance has deteriorated year by year. In the first year, they ended up ranking 17th in the league and almost relegated. There was only one point difference.
The next year, they finally found relief and were directly relegated, finishing last in the league.
Now is the first season in which Zaragoza has lost its spirit.
※※※
Meeting Zaragoza in the semi-finals of the Copa del Rey was the weakest and best opponent Getafe could face in the semi-finals. Otherwise, whether it was Barcelona or Mallorca, it would have been enough.
Drink a pot by yourself.
Barcelona is much stronger than Getafe, and even Mallorca is not easy to deal with. Mallorca today is not the Mallorca it will be in the future. The Mallorca at the turn of the century is just like the Mallorca at the turn of the century.
Like Ta, they are recognized as a strong team.
But now, their semi-final opponent is Zaragoza, which is much easier to deal with.
Although whether it is Barcelona or Mallorca, they will always meet in the final. But meeting in the final and meeting in the semi-finals are completely different concepts.
When we meet in the finals, the entire team can fight bravely in the game with the mentality of "Since I've come to the finals, why not try to win the championship?"
But in the semifinals, when they encountered an enemy that was too powerful, it was difficult for the players to muster the courage to fight against it.
In the semi-finals, if you lose, you lose. In the end, you get to the semi-finals, which is a good result.
Anyway, they didn't make it to the finals, so they didn't have any doubts about the championship. There was still a way out. Once they made it to the finals, there was no way out. They must have won the championship. Whoever comes to the finals is there to see who competes for the runner-up spot.
Of?
Of course, these two semi-finals are not necessarily particularly good. After all, Zaragoza has gained nothing this season, and the Copa del Rey is their last lifeline. If they still want to appear in the European competition next season, the King of Kings
The cup must be won.
For a small team like Zaragoza, they value the Copa del Rey and European qualifications not just because of honor, or most of the reasons are not for honor.
But for money.
There is a bonus for the Copa del Rey champion. If you can participate in European competitions such as the UEFA Cup next season, you will also receive corresponding bonuses.
With this money, the lives of small and medium-sized teams in Spain, which have always been in poor living conditions, can be made easier.
Money. For football clubs, it is something that attracts them more than championship honors.
Therefore, Zaragoza will not lose their fighting spirit in this game, on the contrary, their fighting spirit will be very strong.
This is the hard part.
But for Getafe, who has experienced such a season, this kind of "difficulty" is too common...
In terms of desire for the championship, Getafe is no weaker than Zaragoza.
In terms of desire for money, Getafe is not inferior to Zaragoza...
※※※
Facing Zaragoza, the winning team will not let their team defend blindly because the opponent is not particularly strong.
Getafe's defensive counterattack will play an important role in these two games.
Before the game, the game skills released by Chang Sheng are all offensive skills. They are [Sharp Counterattack] and [Flying Together], which are the same as those used against Atletico Madrid.
He wants to eliminate Zaragoza with a sharp counterattack, and he doesn't want to waste too much time on an opponent like Zaragoza.
※※※
One day later, the Copa del Rey semi-final between Getafe and Zaragoza came at home.
Alfonso Pérez Stadium was packed again.
Although the economic situation is not very good, Getafe fans still give their team the greatest support.
The attendance rate for home games during this period was very high.
In this Copa del Rey semi-final, although Getafe fans did not believe that their team could reach the final or even win the championship trophy.
But they still came to the stadium to support their team.
This support has nothing to do with winning or losing.
Maybe they just regarded this game as a celebration to celebrate the team's successful promotion to the First Division.
This can be seen from the slogans held by the fans, most of which are aimed at the league.
Not many people really take the Copa del Rey seriously.
※※※
Jonathan Mejia Lewis is one of these few people.
When the game started in half an hour, he was already in front of the TV.
At this time, he was lying on the sofa in the living room. On the TV in front of him, the host was analyzing the lineups of the two teams with the invited experts, and then analyzed the winning percentages of the two teams.
Although it is a home game, neither the host nor the guests are optimistic about Getafe.
The reasons they gave are also very good.
"...In the just-concluded league, Getafe went through a fierce battle before defeating Atletico Madrid in the away game. This is certainly worthy of congratulations, but it also casts a shadow on Getafe's Copa del Rey game. This kind of huge ecstasy
It will lead to the players being weak. To put it bluntly, they will lose their fighting spirit and motivation. This season they qualified for promotion in the league and also won the league championship. For them, the huge success in the league can completely make up for everything.
Compared with the league, this Copa del Rey is dispensable.”
"The biggest problem is the lack of mental motivation. In addition, the physical fatigue is also very obvious. After a long and ups and downs season, the players' physical fitness will definitely not be very good. Before, they were able to persevere by gritting their teeth.
Then, relying on the breath that was not released. But now? After the task is completed, all the breath will be released, huge fatigue will sweep over, and the physical fitness of the players will plummet, as if they were hit by something.
It was as if it was sucked away instantly.”
"On the contrary, Zaragoza has been a complete failure this season. The glory of fourth place in the league last season has faded. Now they are empty-handed. They only have one Copa del Rey left to fight for. Zaragoza will definitely not
They would miss this perfect opportunity. If they meet Barcelona or Mallorca in the semi-finals, they may just throw up their hands and surrender, but if they meet a second-tier team, they will definitely have ideas... and they will be very motivated.
, has a strong desire to win, and is not weaker than Getafe in terms of strength. I think Zaragoza has the upper hand..."
"Physical and mental fatigue will cause Getafe's players to perform abnormally in this game. Even playing at home can't save them!"
Finally, the expert guests came to such a firm conclusion.
Jonathan Mejia thinks these guests are right.
Fatigue will be the team's biggest problem, mentally and physically.
Zaragoza's desire to win is indeed stronger than that of Getafe. Even if they have the desire to win, what about Getafe's players? They have already achieved their biggest goal this season, why should they still want to win?
Continue to work hard?
In the last round of the league, they played Atletico Madrid. The reason why they were able to fight Atletico Madrid despite winning the league championship was because they wanted to avenge their usual victory.
There is no grudge between Zaragoza and Chang Sheng. Before this game, they didn't even have any contact.
He still doesn't believe that Getafe can create a miracle because it is too difficult.
But when the game came, he couldn't help but let his parents carry him to the sofa and wait for the game to start.
It's hard to explain this complicated feeling clearly.
Perhaps, as Chang Sheng said, there was a faint hope sprouting in his despairing heart.
Live with hope and expectation until you die......)
