The next day, the two of them made an appointment to go out together as if nothing had happened.

Originally, Gao Han proposed to let Chu Yao go with him, after all, everyone was in a foreign country.

But Lin Xia said that Chu Yao refused to go, saying that she was more willing to stay at home to see her.

They all had a tacit understanding of the agreement that night, as if it had never happened, but their relationship seemed to be one step closer than before.

Gao Han took the sketch and ran to find someone to frame the picture frame, but his skin was not as thick as he said.

He just framed the painting and hung it on it and slowly appreciated it.

The next few days, the two of them were having fun in downtown Madrid, and then they went to Toledo in the south for a day.

There, Gao Han was recognized by a Toledo fan and almost couldn't come back.

Jokeful.

In fact, the fan threatened him with a joke and smiled, "You beat us five to zero, and you dare to come to play here? Are you desperate?"

But in Toledo, I had a great time.

However, happy and leisurely days always pass very quickly.

After Christmas, the team gathered again and began to prepare for the upcoming second half of the season.

Before the holiday, Gao Han told the transfers of two players Paul Fottery, and the club has been following up.

Albacete is also optimistic about Pablo Ibanes' prospects, but this Spanish Second Division team itself understands that Atletico Madrid can't keep them if they want to get their players.

Besides, they had no way to promise Pablo's first team position.

Finally, after thinking about it, Albacete agreed to Atletico Madrid's request.

With 700,000 euros, Gao Han got the tall central defender as he wished.

Pablo Ibanez's transfer was going well. After Albacete agreed, Gao Han personally called Pablo Ibanez and told him what he thought about him. The player also promised on the spot that he was willing to join Atletico Madrid's second team and play for Gao Han.

The club and the players agreed, and the rest were all things that were done by the program.

But another transfer, Antoni Ilaura, who is looking to buy Athletic Bilbao, hit a wall.

As Paul Fottery said, Athletic Bilbao refused to sell the team's hope star.

Atletico Madrid also contacted Antoni Ilaura's agent, but the agent conveyed the player's intentions that he had no intention of leaving Athletico Bilbao for the time being because he was a die-hard fan of the team.

In other words, unless Atletico Madrid kills Athletic Bilbao at a high price, it will not be able to get Antoni Ilaura.

Not to mention whether Atletico Madrid has enough financial resources to play the role of a rich man, even Gao Han has no interest.

Because he always believes in one sentence, a forced melon is not sweet.

Although the scout team quickly sent another player list and Gao Han carefully observed several of them, in the end, for various reasons, he decided to give up introducing the right back.

This is his personality, rather than having nothing than being too bad.

Besides, there is no right back in the team.

…………

On January 7, 2001, the second league rekindled the war.

Atletico Madrid's second team sits at home and faces Shero.

Halfway through the schedule, Shero only scored 22 points in the 19th round of the league, ranking 15th in the league, very close to the relegation zone, and is now fighting for relegation.

After the Christmas holiday, Atletico Madrid's second team retrained, and the players were generally not in shape. Therefore, although they were fighting at home, Atletico Madrid played very poorly.

Several young players including Torres, Villa, Xavi Alonso and Antonio Lopez who have just successfully renewed their contracts with the team are in a sluggish state and have obviously not adjusted from the holidays.

On the contrary, the newly joined young player Pablo Ibanes showed his abilities well in the game.

As the scout team judged, the player is tall and strong, but not slow, has a brave and strong style of playing football, and has been trained in Spain since he was a child, with good foot skills and ball-taking ability.

Whether it was the phone call, the first meeting later, or the training after joining the team, Pablo's attitude was very good and he respected Gao Han very much.

Therefore, Gao Han likes this kid very much. In today's game, the three-star defensive card lasted 20 minutes in total, and it was all used on him, which felt like he was cultivating this kid to become a talent in the shortest time.

There is no way, who made Gao Han lack a defender now?

However, Pablo was also very successful in the game. Although he was a newcomer and played in the second league for the first time, he dominated the team's defense very well, making the head coach and teammates feel relieved, and finally lived up to Gao Han's high expectations for him.

In terms of offense, it was not until the 83rd minute of the second half that Villa finally scored a goal, helping Atletico Madrid to score all three points.

This also made Gao Han very happy.

Since the team broke the winning streak in the second league, Gao Han now earns two achievement points for every game he wins.

One is a reward for winning and the other is a record-breaking reward.

This also allowed his achievements to accumulate faster.

Adding these two points in the 20th round, there are already thirty.

…………

…………

When the second team celebrated the team's 20-game winning streak at Espino Stadium, Atletico Madrid drew with Albacete from zero to zero at Calderon Stadium.

Yes, it is Pablo Ibanes' former boss.

What's even more sad is that the performance of the Bedding Legion's entire game was difficult to satisfy, and the fans on the scene were even more dissatisfied.

But as Marca chief reporter Matayana said in his comment on the second day after the game, Marcos Alonso did not do his best in this round of the league, but left a main lineup to actively prepare for the mid-week Cup of Rey.

It was the quarterfinals of 16, and the opponent was Madrid's city team, Vallecano of La Liga.

Matayana even boldly predicted in the comments that Marcos Alonso will be dismissed if the Cup of del Rey is unfavorable.

This was quickly confirmed by Jose Ramon de La Morena, a famous host of Sel Radio.

But in the entire Spanish media circle, all Atletico Madrid fans regard the first leg of the Copa 16 as a key battle to determine whether Marcos Alonso will stay or not, but the Spanish young coach lost his link at a critical moment.

Atletico Madrid was at home and lost to Vallecano 0-2.

Looking at the entire game, Marcos Alonso completely defeated Juander Ramos at the tactical level.

Interestingly, Juander Ramos was able to be today thanks to Atletico Madrid and Zambrano.

In the 1998-1999 season, Zambrano led Atletico Madrid's second team to the runner-up in the Segunda League, but because the second team must be one level lower than the first team, it cannot be promoted to La Liga and can only be vacant for upgrades.

Therefore, although Vallecano, led by Juander Ramos, only won fifth place in the league, he defeated Sevilla in the play-offs and obtained the right to upgrade. Ramos also led the team to advance to La Liga in his first season, won ninth place in the league, successfully relegated, and has since become famous.

But time has changed, two years later, Juander Ramos led Vallecano to stab the bedsheet Legion in the chest at the critical moment when Atletico Madrid needed to win the most. It was really sad.

In the first round, he lost to Vallecano at home by 0-2, which basically sentenced Atletico Madrid to death.

If the home game is like this, who can still count on the away game?

At the end of the game, the entire Calderon Stadium was overwhelmed by booing from angry fans.

Thousands of fans were shouting slogans, demanding that Marcos Alonso be dismissed and demanding that Old Hill be resigned.

The next day, almost the entire Madrid region reported on this event, and pointed the finger at Marcos Alonso, believing that it was his arrangement in the game that led to the team's defeat.

At the same time, many players in the team were also criticized because it was their poor performance in the game that led to the team's defeat and suffered the shame of this crushing defeat.

But in this tragedy, no player stood up and argued for the head coach.

This proves that Marcos Alonso has not received any support from any player on the team.

The management also silenced the outside world. Although the media agreed that Marcos Alonso would be dismissed, there was no news.

On the weekend, Atletico Madrid lost 0-1 to Sporting Gijon away, and its ranking in the standings fell again, falling to 20th.

By the way, center Javier del Pino, who switched to Sporting Gijon this season, was completely thrown into the cold palace for the rest of the time except for appearing three times at the beginning of the season, without performing any performance.

This also makes many people trust Gao Han’s vision of selecting materials more.

…………

…………

When Atletico Madrid's first team suffered another setback on the away game, Atletico Madrid's second team also played away games.

The destination is the stone city of Avila, more than 80 kilometers away from Madrid.

After a week of rest, the players of Atletico Madrid second team have obviously recovered to some form, defeating Avila 2-0 away and winning 21 consecutive victories.

This also allowed Atletico Madrid's second team to lead the second place with an impressive record of 200, and it was far ahead and out of the world in the standings of the first group of the second league.

After the game, Gao Han did not accompany the team to return to Madrid, but stayed in Avila for a whole day with Lin Xia on holiday.

The Spring Festival is coming soon, and Lin Xia is going to return home, but Gao Han has no choice but to buy some things and ask Lin Xia to take them back to his parents, which is considered to be a filial piety.

Gao Han also felt the bad situation of the first team, especially the depressing atmosphere in the sports city that was suffocating, which even the blind man could see.

But, this has nothing to do with Gao Han.

As Lin Xia said, even if there is Xiao Hill's verbal promise, as long as the management does not make a formal decision for a day, the matter of the first team has nothing to do with Gao Han.

Therefore, Gao Han continued to lead his second team and continued to care about his opponent in the next round, Orense.

In the second showdown this season, Orense learned his lesson this time.

When I arrived at the Espino Stadium, Orensee didn't show up even if he was beaten to death. He just huddled in his own half and didn't come out. He looked like you had the ability to bite me, which was very depressing.

Atletico Madrid's second team has the advantage, but it has never been able to break through Orense's goal.

It was not until the second half that Xavi Alonso took advantage of a corner kick to assist Pablo Ibanez to head the ball and break Orense's goal.

At this moment, Gao Han realized that he had actually ignored the set piece tactics.

In fact, there are skill cards in the store that increase the success rate of set pieces, but they have been ignored by Gao Han.

It's really inappropriate!

Just as Atletico Madrid's second team defeated Orense 1-0, and in the high-rise conference room of Calderon Stadium in the city, Old Hill finally made a difficult decision under the persuasion of his sons, Cerezo and Paul Footre.
Chapter completed!
