Chapter 244 This is for you (guarantee the second update)
ps. After dinner, I was only thinking about the national team game in the evening, and then I went to the winner-takes-all group to chat with everyone, and I forgot to update... It's a sin, a sin...

Just when the expert guest listed n reasons why he was not optimistic about Getafe, just when Jonathan Mejia Luis was waiting for the start of the game with both hope and disappointment.
Chang Sheng was talking to his players in the locker room.
"This is our last home game of the season. There are many fans outside, but they are not actually here to watch the Copa del Rey semifinals. Their arrival is just a continuation of the league effect. Many people don't think we can still play in the King's Cup semi-finals.
They have very good reasons, one, ten, a hundred. There are so many reasons not to be optimistic about us, but this is not the reason why we should give up this game or even the next game."
"Since we have reached the semi-finals, why don't we work harder and reach the finals?" Chang Sheng looked at his players and asked, then he spread his hands, "Look, it is actually such a simple question. We
We have all entered the semi-finals, why not go to the finals? We have all entered the finals, why do we still think about winning the runner-up? Desire, many people think that desire is not good, they are ashamed to mention desire, as if it is just a desire.
It's the same as a very rebellious thing. But in fact, endless desire is the driving force for human progress. I have the desire to succeed, and I hope you have the desire to win..."
"Should Getafe take another step forward? Our performance in the Copa del Rey this season has already created club history. But we can also create a greater history..."
"The most important thing is, do you still want to win?"
He looked at his players and asked.
Since he took the team to visit Jonathan, the atmosphere within the team suddenly changed.
Everyone is more attentive than before. Although their league has ended, these players have not given themselves a big holiday.
Maybe they see their own happiness in Jonathan. They have so much more time than Jonathan. If they do nothing, they will always feel that it is too wasteful.
The feelings that had come out of Jonathan's home still dominated them.
So Chang Sheng got the answer he wanted.
Many players expressed their opinions: "Of course we want to win, coach!"
"I want to go to the finals. Coach!"
"I don't play football to lose!"
Chang Sheng smiled, his morale could be used.

Zaragoza, like those expert guests, believes that Getafe is not interested in fighting. They will win.
Celta were eliminated by Getafe?
So what?
Today's Getafe is not the Getafe that eliminated Celta Vigo. Now they have been successfully promoted and won the championship in the league. The mission has been completed and there is no goal. The Zaragoza people feel that emptiness.
Very understanding.
Such a team has no fighting power left.
Look at their fans. They came to watch the game and held up slogans and banners celebrating the team's promotion.
The fans are not paying attention to the Copa del Rey game, so how much can the Getafe players think about it?
After the game against Atletico Madrid, Chang Sheng gave the team two days off, leaving only three days for the team to train. What is the effectiveness of such preparations?
This shows that Getafe gave up on this game from top to bottom, inside and out.
So Celta being eliminated by Getafe does not mean that Zaragoza will also be eliminated by Getafe.
With such a relaxed mood, they stepped onto the turf of Alfonso Perez Stadium.
※※※
From the beginning of the game, Zaragoza started to attack, attack, and attack again on the road.
Getafe, on the other hand, always defends in its own half, even in the penalty area.
The commentator of this game is no longer Crespo, but a commentator who is usually responsible for commentating on the First Division. It is obvious that he is not familiar with Getafe at all.
In other words, his understanding of Getafe is very general.
He dismissed Getafe's defensive counterattack, thinking that they would definitely not be able to stop Zaragoza's attack.
But ten minutes have passed. Twenty minutes have passed.
Getafe did not concede a single goal.
Their defense really withstood the test!
And at the end of the first half, they relied on a sneak attack to score the leading goal!
When Charisteas smashed Balzaretti's cross into the goal with his head, everyone including the Getafe fans were stunned - Getafe was not giving up on the Copa del Rey.
?
Suddenly many people realized that they had misjudged something.
That is the Getafe team's desire for victory and the championship!
Not long after the second half started, Getafe took advantage of Zaragoza's soldiers to press the situation and try to equalize the score. Getafe launched another high-quality counterattack and then scored another goal!
They actually took a two-goal lead!
The commentator almost didn't make any sound on the spot.
This scene is really surprising.
Getafe, who was not optimistic before the game, actually led Zaragoza by two goals!
If Getafe were a first-division team, maybe he would not be able to wait and declare that the second round was completely over.
They were almost relegated in the league this season, and now the Copa del Rey is their last lifeline. After falling behind by two goals, Zaragoza burst out with huge energy and they pulled a goal back in the second half.
When the score became 2:1, the commentator became a little more excited, thinking that Zaragoza had regained the initiative in the game.
They had a valuable away goal and narrowed the score gap to one goal.
As long as we keep working hard, we might be able to solve Getafe soon.
The Zaragoza players themselves thought so, and their morale was high. As long as they took advantage of the situation and scored another goal, Getafe would collapse.
But fate poured cold water on the high-spirited Zaragoza people here.
In the 72nd minute, when Luis Garcia was dribbling in the penalty area, he was tripped to the ground by a Mallorca player!
The referee awarded a penalty kick without hesitation and sent off the Zaragoza player with a red card!
Luis Garcia, who took charge of the game himself, put the football firmly into the goal!
Getafe regains their two-goal lead!
No one expected before the game that Getafe could lead Zaragoza 3:1 at their home court!
Perhaps many people can no longer treat this team as a second-division team. They are already a first-division team. Even if they are still promoted, at least they can compete with Zaragoza, who can barely avoid relegation.
The gap between them is not as big as people think...
This penalty became the turning point of the game. The Zaragoza team became very impatient because of the penalty. Getafe became more and more confident as they played.

When the referee finally blew the whistle to end the game, Jonathan Mejia looked at the TV in disbelief.
What rang in his ears was not the commentator's fussy shouts, but what Chang Sheng said to him.
"Don't you believe in miracles? Then I will show you a miracle... Please wait until June 30 with hope. This will be longer than you said you can live, but I hope you
Hold on until then, because that day is the King's Cup final, and I will let you see a miracle happen."
"I mean what I say, Jonathan."

When the first Copa del Rey semi-final ended, everyone was talking about the result of this game, which was so unexpected.
Getafe defeated Zaragoza 3:1 at home, which was in sharp contrast to the one-sided remarks before the game.
Many people tried to analyze why Getafe was able to beat Zaragoza.
In the end, they could only say that Getafe's counterattack was too sharp.
Zaragoza didn't expect Getafe's counterattack to be so sharp. Getafe didn't have many chances in this game. They only had six shots in total, and only three of them hit the goal frame. All three of them went in.
ball.
This efficiency is really amazing.
In comparison, Zaragoza's twenty shots can only be called "squandering shots."
Chang Sheng's arrogant remarks at the post-match press conference aroused everyone's attention.
He pointed at the camera and said: "You didn't believe Getafe could win before the game, but now we have won. Not only do we want to win this game, we also want to win until the end. We want to win the King's Cup!"
The media were all frightened by his sudden declaration - what is going on? He just won the first round in the semi-finals, and we don't know what the second round will be like. Why did he say that he wanted to win the championship?
Already?
Does he know that even if he can get through Zaragoza, what kind of opponent will Getafe face?
Whether it's Barcelona or Mallorca, they are both more powerful than Zaragoza! How can your little Getafe be compared with them?
Did he get carried away by this victory? Did he feel elated?
Even the local media in Getafe found it surprising.
You know, even if Getafe can make it to the final, they don't even know who their opponent will be in the final... Is it too frivolous to say something like this now?
※※※
Only Carlos Mediano's Getafe Local newspaper did not raise similar doubts.
Because he knew who Chang Sheng was speaking to.
The next day, the photojournalist who had followed Mediano to Jonathan's home found Mediano: "Editor-in-Chief, look at this..." He was holding newspapers from other newspapers in his hand, and the conspicuous words on them were regular ones.
Sheng pointed at the camera and showed off his wild words.
He said to himself, Editor-in-Chief, didn’t you want me to say it? Do you want to reduce the pressure on Chang Sheng?
Why did people say it themselves?
Carlos Mediano didn't seem surprised, he shook his head with a wry smile.
"That's his style," he said.
In fact, Mediano himself was very surprised when he suddenly heard Chang Sheng say this at the post-match press conference.
But now he has figured it out.
In fact, Chang Sheng does not need to provoke this controversy. He can continue to pretend to be a grandson and a pig to eat the tiger. Just like before the first round against Zaragoza. But he must say this, because this is the only way, what he said
Only then can that person hear it.
He was talking to Jonathan Mejia Lewis.
He wanted to give faith to Jonathan who was terminally ill.
The price is to draw all the firepower to himself and attract the enemy's attention.
This means that Getafe will not be able to avoid attracting attention as the underdog in future games.
They will face greater resistance.
This is definitely not a good thing.
What Chang Sheng did was stupid.
Just to convey confidence and hope to a child who was destined not to live long, he exposed himself.
Is it worth it?
Carlos Mediano asked in his mind.
Maybe it's worth it.
He quickly gave the answer.
※※※
The media is still discussing and hyping Chang Sheng's wild words, but Jonathan Mejia Lewis doesn't care. He is a smart kid. He saw Chang Sheng's words from the media for the first time.
By that time, I had already guessed Chang Sheng’s intention.
Chang Sheng looked like he was pointing at the camera, but in fact he was pointing at himself behind the camera. He was saying to himself:
Don’t you believe in miracles? I will definitely create a miracle for you to see, Jonathan, just wait and see!
The 3:1 home victory over Zaragoza gave Jonathan some confidence in the future.
If the score was reversed and they lost to Zaragoza 1:3 at home in the first round, then no matter how beautiful the victory was, Jonathan would not believe him.
He felt as if he had been on a pirate ship.
Now, in order to see if Chang can really create miracles, even if he struggles, he has to live until June 30th...
