road to victory

Chapter 66 Bar
"I think there is still hope," Vincent said in a tone that regarded himself as one of the few fans. "Having an away goal is an advantage. I think we will seize this advantage."

"What kind of advantage is there? How can there be an advantage even if you lose a ball?" Someone retorted
"We can win the championship with only 1:0 at home. Is this much better than when we played against AC Milan?" Fan Shang said

"That's true, but whether the Asian head coach can attack is a big problem." Another person said, "Dugarry was in good form in the match against AC Milan. Now Dugarry can't score in the defensive counterattack. How to beat Bayern Munich."

"Why not other players? Can't Zidane? Can't Witzger? Can't Taolot?" Fan Shang saw that these people were just talking to him but not looking at him, their eyes were fixed on the screen
"It just depends on luck. I hope someone besides Dugarry will stand up."

"You are all too pessimistic." After Fan Shang said this, before he could speak again, the fans who were discussing looked at him.Fan Shang was taken aback. "Why are you looking at me like that?"

"You are...you are...you are Fan Shang!" Among them, the person closest to Fan Shang recognized Fan Shang under the dim light.

A few fans were also surprised. How could they have thought that the one who had been arguing with them for a long time was the head coach of the team?

"You don't have to look at me so surprised. I am Vincent, the head coach of Bordeaux. I just heard you guys discussing the match against Bayern Munich, so I joined in. I hope you don't mind." Vincent said Very polite

Now Bordeaux fans have complicated feelings for Vincent.They were thrilled to see Vincent pull Bordeaux out of the quagmire of relegation and into the final of the UEFA Cup.But Fan Shang's skin color, coupled with Fan Shang's tactics are mainly defensive and counterattack, and the viewing pleasure is poor, so the fans can't accept him all at once.

"Mr. Coach, we apologize for some of the previous words." One of them said, he felt that it was inappropriate to call Vincent the Asian head coach in person.

"Thank you, Mr. Coach. Oh no, thank you, Vincent" One of the next votes

"My name is Bernal"

In the 38th minute, Panamanian Valdes missed an empty goal opportunity.

In the 21st minute, Djorkaf volleyed in the penalty area, and the ball was pushed out of the baseline by the goalkeeper.

In the 56th minute, Djorkaf shot after passing two people in a row, and the ball flew out of the baseline against the goal post.

"Nice to meet you, I'm going to my friend's place, see you next time." Fan Shang felt that he should go
"Good luck, Mr. Coach. Oh no, Vincent," they said.

On the other hand, Paris Saint-Germain, just from the lineup, can beat Rapid Vienna by several blocks, Lima, Rai, Loko, Djorkaeff... just one of these people can probably be worth more than the entire Rapid Vienna .

"Very well, I don't know you guys yet, let's introduce each other, my name is Vincent, the head coach of Bordeaux"

Since it has been decided to use substitutes in the game against Paris Saint-Germain, Vincent specially transferred Drogba, Sanuno and Ramot from the youth team.He is going to line up these three boys in that game. If Fan Shang's estimation is correct, few of the main lineup will stay in the team next year. By then, these "boy scouts" will come in handy. Now we must let them Adapt to the atmosphere of Ligue [-].

"My name is Nicola"

In the 41st minute, Djorkaf was also a step slower, and the ball was taken first by Vienna's fast goalkeeper.

After Fan Shang left, several people couldn't help complaining to each other about their rashness just now.They also had a new understanding of Fan Shang's character and character.They felt that it would be unfair to say bad things about Fan Shang. How can someone say bad things about him for such a head coach who cares about the club and the team.Since then, several people have devoted themselves to promoting Vincent's positive image among Bordeaux fans.What's more, as the two owners of this bar, Nicola and Bernal, it didn't take long for them to change the name of the bar to "Mr. Coach Bar Monsieur Entra? neurs" to justify Vincent's name.Fan Shang didn't know anything, until Fan Shang came to this bar again and saw that it had changed its name and there were many photos of himself in it, so he asked about it.In the end, Fan Shang invited all the fans who had helped him to have a big meal at his own restaurant.Of course, these are things for later.

Paris Saint-Germain, on the other hand, was a little impatient, as if it had failed to pinch a soft persimmon, and was a little frustrated.

The days without games always pass quickly. On May 5, Vincent and his coaching staff watched the final of the European Cup Winners' Cup between Paris Saint-Germain and Rapid Vienna, Austria.

Originally, Fan Shang thought that it was impossible for Vienna Express to have any celebrities, but when he saw the lineup, he saw a familiar name and an unfamiliar appearance.This person is Vienna's fast striker, German high center forward Jankel, who will be the big bald head of Bayern Munich in the future, and finally went to China to play for a few days.Now he doesn't look bald, he has a little yellow fluff, which makes his head a bit like a snowy hedgehog.But Rapid Vienna has no other well-known players except him.

... Several people said their names respectively.

"Mr. Coach, you are very friendly," said one of the people

In the 29th minute, Paris Saint-Germain won a free kick in the front court 30 meters in front of the penalty area.Djorkaeff and central defender Ngedi stood in front of the ball. After the whistle sounded, Djorkaf flicked lightly. Ngedi rushed up from behind and shot vigorously. The ball hit Vienna's fast goal like a cannonball. 1:0 Paris Saint-Germain lead
After falling behind in the score, Vienna quickly began to attack with all its strength.Paris Saint-Germain's counterattack was even sharper, threatening several times.

The second half was still a quick positional battle in Vienna, and Paris Saint-Germain fought back.

Paris Saint-Germain led Rapid Vienna 1-0 in the first half

"Thank you, it's fine to call me Fan Shang, just say you," Fan Shang said, "I hope you have confidence in the team. If even the fans don't have confidence, why do you let the players work hard on the field? Ball?" Fan Shang took out a few tickets from his pocket. "I don't know if you have tickets. If you don't have them, you take them. If you have them, you share them with your friends who support the team. The team needs your support. These tickets are behind the head coach's bench. , I hope to hear your cheers then."

In the 49th minute, it was Valdez again. After the goalkeeper failed to hold the ball, he got another chance to face the empty goal, but his volley hit the returning defender.

"It's okay, I also have the habit of not calling people's names behind my back." Fan Shang didn't care, then he pointed to his assistant coaches, "Those old boys are my assistant coaches." Fan Shang deliberately used old boys Let's call the Battistones.

"Here you go, I want you to cheer for the team when the team wins and comfort the team when the team loses. That's what real hardcore fans should do. Not like those Brits, If you win the ball, beat people and smash cars, if you lose, you still beat people and smash cars." Fan Shang saw that some fans didn't accept the tickets, and gave them away again.

Fan Shang's recent training is a set of tactics for the main force and a set of tactics for the substitute.The main force is to deal with Bayern Munich, and the substitute is to deal with Paris Saint-Germain.

But the situation on the field is not as disparate as this comparison of strength.After the opening, Vienna quickly played in an orderly manner, with offense and defense, and did not fall behind at all.

"My name is Mark"

In the 11th minute, Paris Saint-Germain was hit hard. Rai was tackled behind the back by Vienna's fast defender when he broke through with the ball. After being treated on the sidelines, he still couldn't walk normally.So coach Fernandez can only use Panamanian player Deli Valdes to replace Lai.

A few fans didn't know what to say at the time. Just now they had dismissed Bordeaux and Fan Shangbian as worthless, but now they still come to give away tickets.

When Fan Shang returned to the middle-aged uncles, he felt that they had almost drunk, so he paid them the bill and let them go.Finally, I did not forget to remind them not to be late for tomorrow's training.

In the 60th minute, Rapid Vienna finally got a chance. Their full-back assisted and made a cross. Lima, who returned to defense, popped the bottom line.

In the 86th minute, Vienna's fast midfielder gave Jankel a precise direct pass, but his speed was limited, and he was confiscated by the attacking Lima.

In the 90th minute, Vienna quickly sent a free kick, and Jankel hit the ball, but Lima quickly saved the ball to the bottom line.

With Lima's outstanding performance in the second half, 1:0 became the final score.Paris Saint-Germain won the European Cup Winners' Cup in the 95-96 season
