However, UEFA can’t give a national league five Champions League places, and at the same time, the defending champion of Real Madrid must appear in the season’s Champions League … UEFA will negotiate with the Spanish Football Association itself.
Real Madrid’s influence in Spain is the fourth place in the Lombard League. Zaragoza felt great pressure from the beginning. If a team must come out to make room for Real Madrid, then this team can be the fourth place. Zaragoza can’t make way for the third Valencia and the second Barcelona, can she? It is even more impossible to make way for League champion La Coruna.
But if Zaragoza insists that he is qualified to play in the Champions League next season, things will become very difficult.
In the end, the Spanish royal family came forward to let Zaragoza carry forward his style.
The Spanish royal family has come forward. What can Zaragoza do? Although both Real Madrid and Real Zaragoza have a crown logo on their heads, which is authentic "Royal", Real Madrid is obviously more valued than Real Zaragoza.
Zaragoza was able to carry forward the style and let them go out of the Champions League.
Real Madrid is the greatest team in European football, replacing Zaragoza. It is reasonable to say that they should have played in the qualifiers, but Real Madrid directly participated in the group stage. You know, the same thing happened in Liverpool later. The 25-year champion Liverpool ranked in the league but failed to qualify for the Champions League. It is reasonable to say that Everton should follow Zaragoza’s style.
But Everton and Liverpool are sworn enemies. How can they sacrifice themselves to become sworn enemies? All of them are unwilling to give way to Liverpool, which makes UEFA very embarrassed.
The English Football Association does not cooperate with their Football Association like the Spanish Football Association, and does not interfere in watching UEFA jokes.
In the end, UEFA was really at its wit’s end. They had to give Liverpool a wild card to participate in the Champions League in the new season, so for the first time, there was a national league and five teams participated in the Champions League at the same time.
In the past few years, English teams have been very strong in the Champions League. Now it’s not amazing to come in five teams at a time.
UEFA will never allow an English team to dominate the Champions League.
In addition, if you don’t give them an unforgettable lesson, Everton will naturally be killed by UEFA-they met Villarreal in the first round of qualifying, and then Villarreal was eliminated, which would be considered an offence to UEFA.
However, Liverpool was put in a group with Chelsea, which created the first time that teams from the same country met in the group stage. UEFA explained that Liverpool was not restricted by this rule with wild cards, but it was easy for four Premier League teams to avoid talking at that time. Even if wild cards were not restricted, it was still difficult to meet the other three Premier League teams in a group.
I didn’t expect Liverpool to really touch Chelsea, and Mourinho, Chelsea and Benitez had a deep grudge against Liverpool in those years. This encounter was naturally full of gimmicks, and it would be a ghost if no one manipulated and intervened.
……
Said to come back to Zaragoza
After working hard for a season, I finally got the fourth place in the league and had the opportunity to participate in the Champions League, but I was given up. This way of losing the qualification is really a great blow to the team.
They let go of the Champions League qualification, and therefore lost their mood.
Since then, Zaragoza’s performance has been worse year by year. In the first year of the year, they finally ranked 17 th in the league and almost relegated by one point.
In the second year, they finally got rid of the penultimate result of the direct relegation league.
And now is Zaragoza’s first season of losing heart.
……
Meeting Zaragoza in the semi-final of the King’s Cup is the weakest and best opponent Hertha can meet in the semi-final, otherwise both Barcelona and Mallorca will be able to drink a pot for themselves.
Barcelona is much stronger than Hertha, and even Mallorca is not easy to deal with. Now Mallorca is not the post-Mallorca century, and Mallorca is recognized as a strong team just like Certa in the century.
But now their semi-final opponent is Zaragoza, which is much easier to deal with.
Although both Barcelona and Mallorca always meet in the final, meeting in the final and meeting in the semi-final are completely different concepts.
When you meet in the final, the team can hold "Why not try to win a championship now that you are in the final?" This mentality is to fight bravely in the game.
However, in the semi-final, it is difficult for players to summon up courage to fight when they meet an enemy who is too strong.
If you lose in the semi-final, you lose. It’s not bad to get a semi-final in the end.
Anyway, if they don’t make it to the final, they won’t be thinking about the championship. There is still a way out. Once they make it to the final, there is no way out. They must win the championship. Who will compete for the runner-up?
Of course, these two semi-finals are not necessarily very big. After all, Zaragoza has not caught anything in the King’s Cup this season, which is their last straw. If they want to appear in the King’s Cup in Europe again, they must strive for victory.
For a small team like Zaragoza, it is not because of honor that they value the qualification of the King’s Cup and the European Cup, or most of the reasons are not honor.
But the money.
The king’s cup champion has a bonus, but if he can participate in the UEFA Cup that season, he will also get a corresponding bonus in European competitions.
With this money, Spanish small and medium-sized teams can have a better life because of their poor living conditions.
Money is more attractive to football clubs than championship honor.
Therefore, Zaragoza will not lose their fighting spirit in this game, on the contrary, they will have a strong fighting spirit.
This is a difficult aspect.
But for Hertha after such a season, this kind of difficulty is too common …
Hertha is no weaker than Zaragoza in her desire for the championship.
Hertha is no less eager for money than Zaragoza …
……
In the face of Zaragoza, winning will not let your team stick to it because the other team is not particularly strong.
Hertha’s defensive counterattack will play an important role in these two games.
Before the game, the winning skills are all offensive skills, namely [sharp counterattack] and [two-winged Qi Fei], just like when playing Atletico Madrid.
He wants to fight back sharply and eliminate Zaragoza. He doesn’t want to have too many waves in Zaragoza’s opponent.
……
One day later, Hertha played Zaragoza in the semi-final of the King’s Cup at home.
Coliseumalfonso perez was packed again.
Although the economic situation is not very good, Hertha fans have given their team the greatest support.
At this time, the seating rate of home games is very high.
In the semi-final of the King’s Cup, Hertha fans won the championship even though they didn’t think their team could reach the final.
But they still came to the stadium to support their team.
This kind of support and victory or defeat
Maybe they regard this game as a celebration to celebrate the team’s successful promotion to the first division.
This can be seen from the slogans held by the fans that nine times out of ten are aimed at the league.
Not many people really put the King’s Cup in their hearts.
……
Jonathan Megia Lewis is one of these few people.
He was already in front of the camera when the game was still half an hour away.
At this time, he is lying in front of the sofa in the living room, and the host is analyzing the starting lineup of the two teams with invited experts, and then analyzing the winning percentage of the two teams
Although it is a home game, neither the host nor the guests are optimistic about Hertha.
They also gave good reasons.
"… Hertha defeated Atletico Madrid away from home after a fierce battle in the just-concluded league, which is certainly worthy of congratulations, but it also cast a shadow over Hertha’s King’s Cup competition. This great ecstasy will lead to the players’ lack of morale and motivation. To put it bluntly, this season, they have obtained the promotion qualification and won the league championship. For them, the great success in the league can make up for everything. Comparing the King’s Cup in the league will be fine."
"Psychological lack of motivation is the biggest problem. Besides, physical fatigue is also very obvious. After a long and ups and downs season, the players’ physical fitness will definitely not be too good. Before that, they were able to persist with their teeth, but now? After finishing that tone, the great fatigue will be exhausted, and the players’ physical fitness will plummet as if they were sucked away by something in an instant. "
