Finally, someone from the hotel came forward and apologized to Sporting de Gijón. They said that after their inspection, there was a problem with the fire alarm system and it was activated automatically.
Later, the firefighters in Istanbul also did a check and "confirmed" that there was a problem with the hotel's fire system network, which caused the alarm to go off by mistake.
While Banderas was negotiating with the hotel and the fire department on behalf of Sporting de Gijón, Li Ang asked Skrtel to quickly arrange for the players to go back to their rooms and take a hot bath before resting. Otherwise, they might catch a cold.
Then, looking at Turkey's actions, he sneered in his heart. This matter was obvious. It was obvious that someone was targeting Sporting Gihon and disrupting their resting place. Everything was for the team he supported to win the next day's game. Maybe it was the fans, or maybe it was even a staff member of the hotel.
After this, the players were even more tired. Li Ang was so tired that he yawned. However, before they could fall asleep again, they heard a noise.
Outside the hotel, across the street, a large number of Fenerbahçe fans appeared. They were making a lot of noise and playing their loudspeakers. In short, they were making all the noise they could.
How could they sleep!
Li Ang was angry!
*****
Skrtel immediately talked to the person in charge of the hotel, but the other party first apologized and then spread his hands, "The fans are outside the hotel and are not under the jurisdiction of the hotel. We can't do anything."
"We are guests of your hotel. If you don't care, who will?" The honest man Skrtel was also angry.
"Call the police," the person in charge of the hotel said lazily.
Sporting de Gijón could only call the police helplessly, saying that someone was disturbing the residents and disturbing their rest.
However, after half an hour, the police still did not arrive. The Fenerbahçe fans below were even more noisy.
The weirdest thing was that just two minutes before the police arrived, the fans ran away. Then the police came and pretended to walk around.
Then, they told the Sporting Gihon team that they did not see any troublemakers who were harassing the residents.
They also reprimanded them rudely and told them not to make a false police report.
Then, the police officers left.
Not long after the police left, that group of Fenerbahçe fans came back again. They were shouting and singing Fenerbahçe's team song brazenly. They did not intend to hide their identities at all. Of course. Naturally, it was mixed with insults and middle fingers directed at Sporting de Gijón.
Li Ang was furious. If it weren't for his status, he would have gone down to teach these bastards a lesson. Of course, he could only think about it. These Fenerbahçe fans couldn't wait to have a direct conflict with Sporting de Gijón.
*****
"Boss, what should we do if we can't sleep?" Ribéry yawned as he knocked on the door and complained.
What to do? I know what to do!
Li Ang could only ask the players to close the doors and windows, draw the curtains, and listen to the music with their headphones to avoid any interference.
Li Ang lifted a corner of the curtain and looked at the people downstairs who were baring their fangs and brandishing their claws. He was so angry that he laughed.
Sure enough, it was a famous away game in Turkey.
Banderas came over with a portable camera. Li Ang asked, "Did you record it all?"
Banderas nodded. "I also recorded the fake fire alarm just now."
"But, what's the use of recording it?" Scottley asked, puzzled. "Those police officers are obviously with them. They won't care about our evidence."
Li Ang sneered. Of course, he did not count on these Turkish police officers. Of course, they would help their own people.
"Submit the evidence to UEFA."
UEFA hated Turkey's bad home environment and would need this evidence. Moreover, there was one more thing. With the evidence, Li Ang could confidently scold people.
*****
The next morning, the Sporting de Gijón players yawned one by one. It was obvious that they were not in good spirits. Some players even sneezed and had runny noses. They had caught a cold.
Li Ang could only arrange for the team doctor to question and examine the players separately. Some of the players were very dispirited and even sick. Li Ang had to consider whether to continue to let them start.
It could be said that the conspiracy of the Fenerbahçe fans had succeeded to a certain extent. They had caused trouble for Sporting de Gijón and might even have caused the non-combat reduction of Sporting de Gijón.
The players were listless. Even when they were eating, it was obvious that they had no appetite.
Benzema even clung to his plate during the meal, dozed off, and almost fell asleep.
Several other young players were also dispirited.
On the contrary, veterans like Albertini and Hierro did not seem to have a big problem.
"I'm used to it," Hierro said in response to Li Ang's inquiry.
Also, veterans like Hierro and Albertini had experienced countless away games when they were at Real Madrid and AC Milan. They had probably been to Turkey as well. Whether it was sleeping, listening to music, or other methods, the veterans had their own ways to adapt and try to ensure that they had a good rest.
From this, it could be seen that Sporting de Gijón, who had not played in a European game for more than 20 years, lacked experience. Not only on the field, but also outside the field.
"What time was the original plan to go and adapt to the field training?" Li Ang asked Banderas.
"Ten o 'clock in the morning."
"Postpone it to three o 'clock in the afternoon. Let the players sleep," Li Ang said helplessly.
Banderas nodded. He could also see that with the players' current mental state, they could not play the game if they did not catch up on sleep.
At around two o 'clock in the afternoon, Scott Trill came to Li Ang and said that the players were still sleeping after lunch. They should go and adapt to the field now. What should they do?
"Cancel the adaptation." Li Ang waved his hand. The most important thing now was to ensure that the players had a good rest.
*****
The Fenerbahçe people soon learned that Sporting de Gijón's players had been sleeping in the hotel all day. Even the adaptation plan was canceled. It seemed that several Sporting de Gijón players had caught a cold.
The news made the Fenerbahçe fans very happy. They cheered and proudly announced the victory on the Internet.
"Well done!"
"Let's see if they will still slander us."
"Serves the Gijón people right!"
"Kill the Gijón people!"
"We will definitely win today's game."
The Fenerbahçe fans shouted the slander of Sporting de Gijón and other European teams while cheering shamelessly for their victory. Even some thick-skinned Turkish media were discussing the fans' victory, saying that it was a punishment for the Gijón people, like a justice judge punishing evil.
In the afternoon, the Sporting de Gijón players finally walked out of the room. Li Ang observed them for a while. Although they were not in a good mental state, after all, sleeping during the day was not in accordance with the biological clock. However, there was no other way.
Banderas also told Li Ang some of the comments in the Istanbul media and the Internet. He was furious and sneered.
*****
At the pre-match press conference, Li Ang faced countless Turkish reporters and the Fenerbahçe manager Dahm's proud face. He smiled and said, "We really feel the enthusiasm of Turkey. Very good, very good. This game will be rewarded generously!"
