When the internal conflict within the Sporting de Gijón club was exposed by Marca, the other media outlets in Madrid were also elated.
In their view, before the big battle between Real Madrid and Sporting de Gijón, the sudden news of internal strife in Sporting de Gijón was definitely a heavy blow to Sporting de Gijón.
They did not believe that the Sporting de Gijón team would not be affected at all, or it could be said that the impact should be very big, because the team boss and the team manager had a conflict. This was definitely a big deal!
Not only did the people of Gijón know the importance of Li Ang to Sporting de Gijón, but the people of Madrid also knew. As opponents, they knew even more clearly why Sporting de Gijón, a newly promoted team, was so difficult to deal with now. There was no other reason than Li Ang!
Now, the team boss seemed to be dissatisfied with Li Ang. With Li Ang's temper, it was conceivable that the rift between the two men would not be small.
And now Sporting de Gijón could be said to be single-handedly built by Li Ang. Under such circumstances, the media did not believe that no player would not be affected.
Even if there was originally no impact, they had to desperately hype up the matter to make it have an impact.
Therefore, these days, the Madrid media constantly called the Sporting de Gijón players, wanting to ask them what they thought of the conflict between the team manager and the team boss.
However, to the media's surprise, most of the Sporting de Gijón players did not answer the media's calls at all. Many players remained silent, and even the players who answered the phone angrily rebuked the media, saying that the so-called rumors of the conflict between Li Ang and the old Arango were completely fabricated by the Madrid media.
This made the Madrid media very depressed, especially Marca, because they knew best that this matter was not fabricated by them. They said that they had insider information.
Under such circumstances, the Madrid media still enthusiastically hyped up the matter. They did not believe that their hype would not have any effect at all.
You don't say, it's still useful.
Regardless of whether it would affect Sporting de Gijón's players, the Real Madrid fans believed it. The news they received from the media was enough for them to conclude that "Sporting de Gijón is now in a state of chaos." Therefore, the Real Madrid fans were immediately energized. They were looking forward to their team's away victory against Sporting de Gijón, whom they hated to the core. Some fans even thought that winning the game was in the bag. They were even looking forward to a big victory.

In addition, Li Ang previously attacked the rumors of Sporting de Gijón's internal strife as fabricated by the people of Real Madrid, saying that it was because Real Madrid was afraid of Sporting de Gijón, so they came up with evil ideas in an attempt to disrupt Sporting de Gijón's morale.
His words were also interpreted in depth by the media, causing the people of Real Madrid to be extremely angry.
Real Madrid's president, Florentino, was stopped by the media after a charity event in Madrid, asking for his opinion on the matter.
Real Madrid's president said a Spanish proverb, "You see him baring his fangs and brandishing his claws, but in fact, he is extremely afraid."
Marca praised Florentino's proverb, saying that the President had responded graciously to a certain someone.
Real Madrid's president was very elegant, but their players were not so polite.
Real Madrid's vice president, Guti, said a lot of unpleasant things in an interview. When translated into Chinese, it could be replaced by one sentence: Sporting de Gijón, wash your ass and wait …
Even Real Madrid's captain, Raúl, who was still recovering from his injury, came out to speak, "Our previous record against Manager Li Ang's Sporting de Gijón was not very good, but that's all in the past. This time, we will win fair and square. I believe that my teammates can do it! They are the best players. "For this game, Raúl could not play because of his injury.
Not only could Raúl not play, but Zidane and Owen were also injured and would miss the game because of their injuries.
However, Sporting de Gijón also had important players who were absent from the game. Albertini and Diego Milito were both recovering from their injuries and could not play.
Considering the depth of the bench of the two teams, it could be said that Sporting de Gijón was more affected by injuries.
*****
The day before the game, Real Madrid's entire team flew from Madrid to Gijón. At the airport, they were warmly welcomed by some Real Madrid fans who had arrived in Gijón early.
In the past, when Real Madrid visited Gijón for a game, Real Madrid's fans rarely followed the team to an away game. For a small club like Sporting de Gijón, it was a piece of cake for them to defeat their opponents. There was no need to make such a big fuss.
However, the current situation was that ever since Li Ang took charge of Sporting de Gijón, the team had become Real Madrid's nemesis. In the last season's Copa del Rey final, Sporting de Gijón snatched the championship trophy from Real Madrid's doorstep. In the first round of this season's league tournament, Sporting de Gijón defeated Real Madrid in an away game, humiliating Real Madrid twice. Coupled with the old grudge between Li Ang and Real Madrid, Sporting de Gijón could be said to be the team that Real Madrid wanted to win the most now.
Therefore, for this away game, many Real Madrid fans also came to Gijón to cheer for Real Madrid.
In addition to the fans, there was also a swarm of media. Whether one admitted it or not, Sporting de Gijón was now second in the La Liga standings. They were only one point behind the leader, Barcelona, and eight points ahead of Real Madrid. This was the battle between the second and third place in La Liga. It was a heavyweight match in the truest sense of the meaning of Mars colliding with Earth!
Faced with the reporters' microphones, Real Madrid's manager, Luxemburgo, and the player's representative, Guti, were interviewed separately.
"The game at the El Molinón Stadium will be more difficult, but we are confident that we can take away a victory," Luxemburgo said.
"In this game, our goal is to make Sporting de Gijón afraid of us in the future! Let them tremble when they hear the name Real Madrid. "
Real Madrid's vice-captain, 'Wolf King' Guti, said such cold words in front of the microphone.
In the process of the previous confrontation between the two sides, Guti had been sent off with a red card and was suspended for malicious injury. Li Ang had also angrily lashed out at Guti. Therefore, it was clear that Real Madrid's vice-captain was going all out to humiliate Sporting de Gijón! That's right, it was a humiliation! According to Guti, Real Madrid not only wanted to win, but they also wanted to give Sporting de Gijón a victory that was close to humiliation. Only in this way, only in this way, could they get rid of the hatred in their hearts!
*****
The next day, before the start of the game.
In the away team's locker room at the El Molinón Stadium, Real Madrid's manager, Luxemburgo, was warning the players, "We have to stay calm. As long as we don't have any problems, we will definitely win this game. Don't be provoked by the opponent, and keep a clear head. " As he spoke, Luxemburgo glanced at Guti. Raúl was injured, so Guti would be the team's captain on the field. However, the 'Wolf King' had a bad temper.
On the other side, in the home team's locker room.
A unique pre-game deployment that would leave a deep impression on many players for a long time was in progress.
Some images were being broadcasted on the television.
"Real Madrid arrived at Gijón Airport. They looked full of energy. Obviously, as the manager, Luxemburgo, said, the whole team maintained great confidence in winning the game. At the airport, Luxemburgo and Guti were interviewed separately …"
Then the TV screen showed what Luxemburgo and Guti had said during the interview yesterday.
Li Ang pressed the pause button, and the TV screen stopped at Guti's face facing the microphone.
"Well, this is the TV news," Li Ang said, picking up a stack of newspapers in his hand. "There's also print media."
"Let me read to everyone what they said."
"Marca: Sporting de Gijón is in civil strife, and Real Madrid wants to teach them a good lesson." Li Ang clicked his tongue. "They said they want to teach us a good lesson."
"AS: It's time for the Gijón people to taste the power of the Galácticos' artillery. We need a big victory." Li Ang pursed his lips. "Where's the artillery of the Galácticos?"
"And these newspapers." Li Ang shook his head. "I don't want to continue reading. Anyway, it's not anything good."
"Guys." Li Ang threw the newspapers to the ground, and they scattered all over the floor. "It looks like we're not very popular now. Many people are looking forward to us not doing well. They're looking forward to us losing the game. They're looking forward to us being embarrassed."
The entire locker room was quiet. No one spoke. Everyone looked at him.
"I'm curious." Li Ang spread his hands. "Between us and Real Madrid, who's ranked higher? Who can answer my question?! "
"It's us!" Mata shouted.
"That's right." Li Ang nodded. "But why are they talking like that? It's as if we're at the mercy of Real Madrid. Why is it like this? We're in the lead. We've beaten them twice. We're the winners! Why? Why don't we enjoy the respect that we deserve?! "
"Why?!" Li Ang's voice suddenly rose!
*****
Yes, why?!
We're second in the league!
We've beaten Real Madrid twice!
Our points are eight points higher than theirs!
But why are we still the ones being looked down upon?! And not Real Madrid, who we've left behind in the standings?!
Li Ang's words resonated with all the players. This kind of naked contempt made the Sporting de Gijón players very unhappy.
As Li Ang asked the question, why?! Why?! They couldn't understand … Why are we still being looked down upon even though we've surpassed Real Madrid in points? That Guti actually said he wanted to humiliate us! Why?!
The team's morale was very good now. The players were very proud. They were proud of the team's ranking and the team's performance!
The team, as a newly promoted team, had achieved the current results. They thought that they deserved respect.
Even if their opponent was Real Madrid, considering the league ranking and the recent results of both sides, they should have the advantage! They should be respected and flattered!
However, the media may have praised them previously and said that they played well, but once they met an opponent like Real Madrid, they immediately looked down on them!
*****
Li Ang saw the changes in the players' expressions and knew that it was effective.
In fact, was the media wrong? Not necessarily. With Sporting de Gijón's strength, when facing Real Madrid, the media looked up to Real Madrid and belittled Sporting de Gijón. It didn't seem to be a big deal, not to mention that this was the Madrid media.
However, Li Ang cleverly took advantage of this. He took advantage of the players' pride and created an atmosphere that said, "We're working hard, we're doing well, but those bastards are still looking down on us!" They don't respect us!
What should we do?!
Li Ang knew that there was only one fire left!
"I'm angry because I know how good our team is. Mr. Scottley, Mr. Banderas, and many others. They've worked hard with me, but it's so praiseworthy."
"I also know that my players, you! How outstanding you are! A season ago, many of us were unknown. But now, we can proudly say that in La Liga, in European football, we're famous! Many people know us and like us! Why? Because we keep winning on the field and moving forward! "
"This is the future that we kicked out!"
"This is the situation that we opened up!"
"We used our own feet to kick out the glory stage!"
"You're the best!"
"We're the best!"
"We need respect!"
"We need respect!"
"What should we do?!" Li Ang raised his right hand. "Answer me!"
"Victory!"
"Victory!"
"Victory!"
The entire locker room seemed to be about to explode!
Everyone roared at the top of their lungs!
Everyone's eyes were red!
They roared with all their might!
*****
Li Ang put down his arm. He turned around and walked to the door in two steps. He pulled open the locker room door.
"The door to victory!" He looked at his players. "Go! Kill them! Use your feet, use your hard work and sweat, use your willpower! "
"Tell them!" Li Ang's expression was ferocious. He almost roared, "Tell those guys whose annual salaries are a few times, ten times more than yours! You're better than them! You're the best! "
Boom!
Everyone howled!
Then, they almost rushed out of the locker room.
*****
Almost at the same time, the door of the away team's locker room opened. The Real Madrid players had just come out when they saw the Sporting de Gijón players rushing out angrily with ferocious expressions. They looked at them as if they had killed their father or stolen their wife!
What happened?
Real Madrid's star players were stunned.
At this time, at the door of the home team's locker room, Li Ang roared, "Tell them! Since our f * cking ranking is below theirs, if they don't want to get beaten up! Be f * cking honest!! "
"Be honest!" The Sporting de Gijón players were simply brainwashed. They roared, then glared fiercely at their opponents and strode forward without looking back.
Li Ang's expression was ferocious. He was also affected by the atmosphere he created. Then, he looked up and saw the dumbfounded and unfriendly Real Madrid players.
What a coincidence!
If it were someone else, they would definitely feel that this was more awkward.
However, Li Ang would not.
He glanced at the furious Real Madrid players, smiled slightly, patted his butt, and walked away … If looks could kill, the looks behind him could tear him to pieces …
"That bastard!" Guti gritted his teeth and said. Then he waved his hand. "Let's go and kill them!"
Seeing the angry Guti rush up with the players, the Real Madrid manager Luxemburgo's expression changed again and again. He felt that all the words he had just said in the locker room were useless.
