Volume 3 Red Forest Chapter 108 Wood? The Bernabeu? (Above)

As soon as there was a substitution, the team conceded a goal. The media and fans will not let go of this excuse to bake Luxenberg, who saw Luxenberg's substitution as a sign of cowardice, and he was really punished.

But Luxenburg didn't think about it, and now, standing at the Bernabeu Stadium with a lot of boos, he was thinking about something else.

Real Madrid, who were led again, seemed to have lost the motivation to continue the game because of this substitution, they felt that the game was bad, the manager was incompetent, and the players on the pitch could not do anything.

Real Madrid has completely lost its fighting spirit.

Nottingham Forest played as they pleased for the first time after taking the lead.

Donn looked at the "most successful team of the twentieth century" in the white jersey on the field, but he was like a walking corpse, with no fighting spirit, no enterprising spirit, and no will to fight to the end. He shook his head and muttered, "It's pathetic......"

Santiago•The Real Madrid logo on the façade of the Santiago Bernabeu has lost its color, and the entire huge white building is surrounded by boos and shouts of "Luxemburg fuck off" in the night sky, and people don't care what the outcome of this game is, they care about what happens after this game.

The game has ended early.

Donn sat back in the dugout, crossed his legs and began to enter the theater mode, not to watch the game, but to watch the "historic moment" that happened at the Bernaune.

Donn believes that in the history of the development of world professional football, Florentino and his "superstar policy", as well as this star-studded but deformed Real Madrid team, have left a strong mark after all. Because they are an extreme case of the end of business and football, this typical failure also means that there must be a limit to the commercialization of football, after all, football still has its own characteristics that cannot be changed and cannot be defiled, and these characteristics cannot be replaced by no amount of money.

"I accidentally became a revolutionary......" Donn muttered quietly, suddenly wanting to laugh, laughing loudly, laughing uncontrollably.

What could be more rewarding than being able to change history for yourself?

Chris Rac had noticed from just now that Donn was always whispering something with his head down, but he couldn't hear clearly, "What did you say, Tony?" ”

"Ah, nothing, David. It's nothing ......" Don glanced at his watch, and as soon as he raised his head, he saw the fourth official standing on the sidelines with an electronic bulletin board, "Get ready to celebrate the victory, it's a foregone conclusion that we'll qualify!" ”

With that, he stood up and walked to the sidelines, waiting for the entrance to celebrate.

Behind him, the rest of the Forest players, as well as the coaches of the coaching staff, stood up and prepared to rush onto the pitch.

The Bernabeu boos were no longer for them, and Donn suddenly looked at Luxenberg standing on the sidelines with some sympathy. Real Madrid's head coach is not so easy to be......

The referee finally blew the whistle for the end of the match, and in the midst of the huge boos, it was almost inaudible. Albertini, who was the closest Forest player to the referee, raised his fist, and only those on the sidelines reacted and rushed in a swarm.

Don wasn't in such a hurry as they were, but kept his head held high and paced in slowly, as if he were patrolling his territory.

The Real Madrid players walked quickly down the road with their heads down, and the boos over the Bernabeu stadium made them feel uncomfortable, whether it was for the team or the manager.

Two defeats in a row in a week, both at home, as if it had suddenly reached the end of the world. The once proud and unbeatable Real Madrid superstars had to bow their heads in front of the celebratory "English countrymen".

There are not many people in the world who can conquer the Bernabeu, and Donn has written his name on it.

What happened that night will be talked about countless times in the future, not because of Nottingham Forest's victory over Real Madrid, but because the "superstar era" is over.

In the post-match press conference, Luxenburg calmly accepted defeat, believing that his side were not as good as Nottingham Forest and that the defeat was a matter of course. Nottingham Forest have done a fantastic job and congratulations to them.

Donn, on the other hand, smiled and told the reporters: "Does anyone remember what I said at the press conference after the first leg of the group stage between Forest and Real Madrid? ”

Everyone looked at each other, who remembers what happened a few months ago.

"It seems that everyone is forgetful. At the time I said, 'I'll surprise everyone when I go to the Bernabeurd next time'. A lot of people laughed at the time. But I think most people think I just can't afford to lose, and I'm just hard-mouthed. Now, do some people still think that I can't afford to lose? ”

This time, no one laughed anymore except Don En alone.

When Nottingham Forest flew back to the UK the next day on their morning flight, Donn bought a freshly baked morning newspaper at the airport in Madrid. Originally, he didn't plan to buy newspapers here to spend time, because he couldn't read Spanish, so he didn't have much interest in Spanish newspapers. But the photo on the front page of the newspaper caught his eye.

It was a picture of last night's fight at the Bernabeu, with Luxenberg standing on the sidelines, his hands on his chest, his face expressionless, and on his side, on the big screen in the distant stands, a glaring 1:2.

As he stood on the edge of the newsstand and looked at the picture, Mikel Mikel•Arteta, one of the team's players, walked over, looked at the newspaper and said to Donn in English: "Boss, Luxemborg has resigned. ”

Hearing this, Donn turned his head to look at Arteta, and then took money out of his pocket to buy the paper.

Luxenberg was more than ten days ahead of his memory, but he was no longer surprised by the fact that it didn't match his memory.

This was something he expected.

He only cares about one thing. He approached Arteta and handed him the newspaper: "Were the Brazilians dismissed by the Presidency or did they resign on their own initiative?" ”

Arteta took a brief look at it and said to Donne: "It's a voluntary resignation, boss." ”

This Brazilian coach, who is torn between sticking to his football philosophy or pleasing Real Madrid fans, has finally done what he wants to do......

After thanking Arteta for helping him translate, Donn turned around and rolled up the newspaper he had just bought and threw it in the trash.

In more media, the Spaniard scolded Luxemburg, who voluntarily resigned, for staining Real Madrid's glorious century-old tradition. He made the noble Real Madrid ugly and walked away as a matter of course.

Of course, there will be more gossip in the coming days, such as Ronaldo talking to Francrotino and hoping for a transfer......

But Don didn't care about that, he was tired of hearing about these things in the past, and he didn't get any benefit from caring about them.

Unlike the last time he fought at the Love Song Stadium, on the plane back to England, Donn did not talk to George•Wood alone, and ignored Wood's silence.

He was going to cold Wood for a few days, and let him figure out something for himself, which would be better than letting him sort out everything.

However, after he replaced Wood, Wood's performance and his own performance gave the English media a new hype. So from the day after the team answered Nottingham, the media began to have "rumors" that George•Wood and Tony•Donn were at odds.

"Hearsay" is really good because there is no affirmation that it is true, but there is no denial that it is not true, and it can send a message to everyone who sees this "rumor" - we will not say what it is, but you can think about it.

—George•Wood was unhappy with being substituted early, and the locker room confronted Donn.

- Wood and Don are at odds and may be sold by Donn, who is not allowed to question his authority.

- Wood's agent said in an interview with this newspaper that the Spanish club Real Madrid is interested in Wood.

……

Etcetera.

A year ago, in the face of such "rumors", Don En laughed it off. Now, he can't laugh anymore. Why?

Because George•Wood had a restless agent.

Billy•Woods has been an agent for less than a year, mainly busy with his endorsement of commercial brands, and has successfully signed a three-point brand endorsement contract for Wood. It seems to be more interested in Wood's commercial value.

But Donn wasn't comfortable with an agent who approached Wood on his own initiative and gained his trust. Perhaps it was prejudice, he always thought that one day Woods would take every opportunity he could to take Wood away from him.

He couldn't sit still and wait, he had to take the initiative.

He decided to call Wood's agent to confirm the truth of the newspaper reports and to inquire about his agent's thoughts.
