One hundred and ninety-ninth chapter fifty-eight (guarantee
Several Italian reporters were pointed at and scolded by Chang Sheng, but they did not refute them in person. After returning home, they became more and more uncomfortable the more they thought about it.
Why is AC Milan's 58 games a stain on Italian football? Then Valencia's 57 games unbeaten is also a shame on Spanish football?
Why don't you ever mention this? I bet you don't want to offend your own people, right?
As a result, Italian journalists, who became more and more unhappy as they thought about it, wrote articles angrily criticizing Chang Sheng's arrogance and arrogance, describing Chang Sheng as a guy with no education or courtesy.
And curse the winning team for losing the game.
In fact, these Italian reporters were all wrong.
It’s not that Chang Sheng doesn’t want to offend his own people, Chang Sheng has already offended enough of his own people. He won’t hold back just because he’s afraid of speaking ill of La Liga.
He didn't say La Liga because he didn't need to say it because his relationship with other teams in the Spanish Liga was not that good.
※※※
In fact, Chang Sheng has already received the task of AC Milan's record, but it is not to tie the record, but to break the record. For System Lin Mo, tying AC Milan's record is meaningless. The only way is to break the old record and create a new one.
Only a new record of your own has the value of hard work.
Therefore, this task requires leading Valencia to win and break AC Milan's 58-game unbeaten record.
Before, Chang Sheng had been hesitant about whether to actually complete this task.
Because this is different from winning the league, breaking the unbeaten record has no direct benefit for him, but will make the players feel nervous.
He is afraid that this tense atmosphere will turn into pressure, which will accumulate game by game and eventually overwhelm his team.
So he never made up his mind whether to do the mission or not.
It wasn't until now that he figured it out.
You’ve already achieved this, and you’re only one game away from the record, so why not break it?
Why should we give up?
The pressure on the players is indeed great, but haven't they already made it this far? That means they are more tenacious than they thought. Then there is hope of breaking the record.
Now the world's media are paying attention, but the Italian media doesn't want us to break the record. If we don't break the record in the end, it will only make the Italians laugh and make our own people feel sad, unhappy and aggrieved...
It also makes the whole world feel sorry for Valencia.
We don’t want to be pitied!
So Chang Sheng gritted his teeth and did it!
I’m still on a collision course with AC Milan’s record!
I have already broken this record!

As Valencia's opponent in this game, Mallorca is actually not a team that is easy to deal with. Before this game, Mallorca ranked seventh.
Judging from the current games this season, this is just a very nervous team.
They can lose three consecutive games at the beginning of the season, ranking first from the bottom, and looking like favorites for relegation.
Who would have thought that they would win seven consecutive games next! With two more draws, they would be undefeated in nine rounds!
After twelve rounds, with twenty-three points, he was directly promoted from the last place to the third place!
This is the rhythm of competing for the league championship and entering the Champions League next season...
Their seven-game winning streak was the strongest performance in La Liga at the time, and not even Real Sociedad and Valencia could steal their limelight.
As a result, starting from the thirteenth round, they lost four consecutive games... After sixteen rounds, the league ranking fell from third to seventh.
The whole process was like riding a roller coaster, with ups and downs.
After three league rounds, one win, one draw and one loss.
Ups and downs.
This kind of team is completely unpredictable, and you don't know how they will perform in the next game.
They can either be held to a 1:1 draw by newly promoted Huelva at home, or they can beat Athletic Bilbao 2:0 at the San Mames Stadium.
When you play against this team, you never know how they will be in the game.
So Chang Sheng appears to be very cautious.
He was fully prepared and tried his best to mobilize the morale and fighting spirit of the players before the game.
But when it came to the game, Valencia's players still showed their impatience to break the record.
Perhaps thinking that as long as they can win their opponent, they can tie AC Milan's record, so Valencia's players seemed very anxious and couldn't wait to score goals in the game. They even ignored the overall team.
And just want to do it alone.
Ibrahimovic showed it most obviously.
So in the 65th minute, Chang Sheng replaced the Swede who was in no condition.
He replaced his favorite general Mista in Getafe. At this time, he believed that Mista, who had followed him through the storms in Getafe, was worthy of trust and trust.
Sure enough, Mista, who came on as a substitute, broke the deadlock for Valencia in the 78th minute!
The stone in the hearts of all Valencians can finally fall to the ground...
Even if Valencia, which is leading by one goal, concedes a goal, it will be a draw. A draw can maintain the unbeaten streak.
After scoring the goal, Mista ran to the coaching bench and saved Chang Sheng. He used this celebration to thank Chang Sheng for trusting him.

Valencia then took the lead, and the whole team relaxed for a while. After relaxing, their performance returned to normal. Facing Mallorca, with the cheers of the home fans, Valencia played their game
Ball control tactics.
Just passing the ball back and forth, there is no rush to pass the ball to create a shooting opportunity.
At this time, Valencia and Chang Sheng are both very utilitarian. No matter how pleasing the football they played before was, this time also exposed the fact that Chang Sheng is a utilitarian at heart.
If this was Mallorca's home stadium, there would have been overwhelming boos from the sky above the stadium.
But now it is Valencia's home court, and the fans at the Mestalla Stadium will definitely not tear down their own team.
Not only did they not boo, they also applauded Valencia's back-and-forth behavior of delaying the game!
At this time, everything is for the sake of record. As long as it is conducive to setting a record, it is the right thing to do.
No one will be disgusted to jump out and pretend to be arrogant, creating winning tactics and players' playing style, tarnishing the tradition of Valencia.
When Valencia turned the ball upside down, Mallorca gradually lost its fighting spirit.
In fact, they were in very good shape in this game, otherwise they wouldn't have conceded the goal until the 78th minute.
But they ultimately failed and became Valencia's foil.
During the injury time, the players on the field were actually a little uninterested in playing.
Mallorca felt that even if they scored one goal, Valencia would still be undefeated. Unless they scored two goals in a row, but scoring two goals in a row was very difficult and basically impossible. So they lost their fighting spirit.
Valencia began to think about how to celebrate...

When the referee blew the first whistle, there was a huge cheer above the Mestalla Stadium. The cheers even drowned out the referee's next two whistles.
And Valencia's substitute players rushed into the court with their arms high!
On the coaching bench, everyone around Chang Sheng was shaking hands with him, hugging him, and congratulating him on the achievement he led the team to achieve.
The excited voice of the commentator Moen echoed in front of the TV.
"The game is over! Valencia defeated Mallorca 1:0 at home! They won their fourteenth victory this season and their twentieth unbeaten game. It was also Valencia's fifty-eighth consecutive unbeaten league game.
! They have tied the longest unbeaten record in the five major leagues created by AC Milan! This is an amazing result! From now on, every step they take is creating a new history!"
Reporters rushed into the stadium and surrounded Chang Sheng.
The microphone was stretched out to him, and the recording pen was stretched out to him.
They all want him to talk about his feelings.
Chang Sheng waved his hand: "Don't be so exaggerated, okay? It just tied the record, not broke it. Come back when the record is broken!"
Then he stopped answering any reporters' questions about the record.
Although he plans to break the record, he still doesn't want to put too much pressure on his players.
So it's actually a good idea to downplay this topic now.
※※※
But downplaying the topic of records is bound to be a naive idea.
The media will never downplay it. It’s fine if they don’t add fuel to the fire. How do you expect them to downplay it? That’s just a trick!
On the second day of the game, major media in Spain and even around the world reported this incident.
The Spanish media even covered this matter in large sections.
The same goes for Italian media.
After all, Valencia tied AC Milan's record.
However, the media had different reactions and attitudes.
Some people are supportive and happy, while others are disdainful.
"Gazzetta dello Sport" said sourly that the reason why Valencia, which has always won, was able to tie the record is because the overall strength of La Liga has declined, with Real Madrid and Barcelona both performing sluggishly. Other teams are not strong either.
A Real Sociedad can still threaten Valencia, but now it is also five points away...
In short, the reason Valencia was able to achieve this result was because of the overall decline of La Liga and the uneven strength of the teams, which gave Changsheng the opportunity to take advantage of the loopholes.
"Gazzetta dello Sport" is a supporter and official mouthpiece of AC Milan. They must wear the same pants as AC Milan.
Fifty-eight league games unbeaten has always been the pride of AC Milan and a topic that AC Milan fans talk about.
Now, Valencia, led by the victorious team, is tied.
"Gazzetta dello Sport" naturally cannot maintain a normal mind.
Other Italian media also expressed their agreement with Gazzetta dello Sport's analysis.
The Valencia media lavishly praised the team's performance and encouraged Valencia's performance to be as disgusting as possible.
But no Valencia fan thinks the media is disgusting. Because after such a game, Valencia has achieved such results, and the media has no problem no matter how much they praise it...
Even in private, they are more disgusting and excessive than what the media makes them out to be.
Fans like to watch the media praising the team they support. If the media is indifferent after a victory, what's the point? (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to register as a Piaotian Literature member to recommend it.
