Chapter 30: The Madman (Part II)

Just as the final whistle blew, Mourinho, who was standing on the edge of the dugout, turned and walked down the hallway, completely ignoring the tradition and politeness of the handshake that the managers should shake hands after the game, and of course Don didn't expect the unruly man to shake hands with his rivals after defeat. Thinking about how he will treat Wenger in the future, Don already knows in his heart. So his first reaction after the game was not to go to the Chelsea dugout to shake hands with his opponents or say something polite, but to go straight to the players who were celebrating the victory on the pitch.

As a result, there was such a bizarre scene on the sidelines: the assistant coaches of both sides came together and completed the post-match etiquette in place of their head coach - shaking hands, the loser congratulated the winner, and the winner comforted the loser.

After Donn walked onto the court, he went straight to Danish center forward Niklas, who scored the winning goal. Bendtner, the young man seemed very excited, and when he saw Donn coming, he hurriedly ran up and hugged him: "Boss! We won, right, we won! ”

"Yes, yes, we won. Well done, Nick. Don was held between his arms by the other party, and replied with grinned teeth. If you can let go of me, I feel better......"

Bendtner embarrassed to let go of Donne, but more Forest players poured in, and they surrounded the manager, admiring and admiring in their hearts.

Forest haven't lost since losing to Blackburn Rovers in the first round of the league! It's an incredible feat, and it's a great confidence that Nottingham Forest have never been at the back of the pack against a big team.

Seeing that everyone was in high spirits, Don simply asked them to form a circle, stood in the middle by himself, and said what he was going to say in the locker room now: "Guys, how's it going?" It feels great to win, right? ”

The players laughed out loud.

"That's it, victory, constant victory, throw the depression and pain on the opponent, and go enjoy tomorrow's day of vacation yourself!"

Cheers rang out from the crowd.

"Alright, go and thank the fans who cheered you on in the rain, then go back to the locker room to shower and change and enjoy the night!"

Looking at the players who had thanked the fans, Don turned and walked towards the corridor. There is also a press conference waiting for him, another head-to-head clash with Mourinho. Of course, now he's the winner and he's looking forward to a press conference like this. An undisguised smile appeared on Don's face as he walked down the road.

While the Forest players were still outside celebrating with the fans, Donn was already sitting in his place in the hall of the press conference, waiting for his opponent Jose Mourinho to arrive.

At this time, Mourinho must have been in the dressing room to teach his players a lesson. It reminded Donn of what he had been like since his first game. Forest lost to West Ham United in the FA Cup, and the West Ham manager had Donn wait alone for a long time, so much so that he angrily announced the press conference ahead of schedule.

But today it was different, Mourinho asked him to wait here, he waited willingly, because he won the game, he was in a good mood.

There aren't many reporters in the press conference hall right now, and they're all crowded into the mixed area to interview the players. Don was not in a hurry, and sat and waited slowly. As time went on, more and more reporters came to the hall and it seemed that the players were back in the dressing room.

That's when Jose Mourinho arrived. He sat down next to Don with a straight face, and the reporters who had gathered in groups to chat just now saw that the two protagonists had arrived, and hurriedly returned to their seats. The moderator also opened the press conference.

Journalists were not very enthusiastic about the outcome of the game, on the contrary they were interested in the-for-tat between the two managers on the sidelines. Almost all of the issues were related to the two managers clashing on the sidelines towards the end of the first half.

Don doesn't want to talk about this because he's the winner, and he wants you to focus more on the outcome of the game rather than the boring "coach-to-one".

Mourinho also refused to answer the question because he was in a bad mood after losing. He ignored the reporters' questions and spoke directly about the match: "I don't want to talk about the result, I just want to talk about the points in the game. First of all, Ferreira was definitely unfair, and I think Ribery faked a fall. Don't ask me why, I don't have a reason, but I ask you to go back and watch the video of the game yourself......"

When he said this, Don next to him interjected: "Of course, if you look at it a hundred times, you will think that Ferreira's red card is self-inflicted." When he said this, his eyes did not look at Mourinho, but glanced at the corner of the room - the meaning was obvious, and it did not darken Mourinho's face even more. The reporters below are excited, is the scene on the sidelines in the first half going to be repeated?!

But they were disappointed, Mourinho gritted his teeth and pretended not to hear Donne's words, and continued: "Second, I would suggest that the English FA consider penalising deliberate delays in the game. ”

"Well, first you need to fight a year of legal action to prove that someone else is 'deliberately delaying the game.'"

These two people are like talking cross talk, you say a word, I say a word. Don deliberately took Mourinho's words, and Mourinho deliberately ignored Don.

'Thirdly, just a win doesn't mean anything, we lost, but we're still strong contenders for the league title. As for Forest, I sincerely hope to see them in the league next season. "Ignoring is ignoring, and the anger in my heart really can't be hidden. Jose Mourinho finally took aim directly at Donne's side.

"Ah, you mean the Champions League?" Donn smiled, "I would have liked to see Chelsea there, too. ”

Jose Mourinho got straight from his seat, and the cameras in the hands of the reporters flashed wildly...... What are they expecting?

Of course, Mourinho was unwilling to put up with a punch that hit Toney. Donn, and then the head coaches of both sides put on a live Kombat in full view. The next day in the newspapers, on the radio, on TV, on the Internet...... All the media will hype up this blood-boiling affair. It's probably only the English FA that has a headache, but it's the media and readers who are excited.

To their disappointment, Mourinho did not punch Don N but turned away from the press conference, leaving Don to perform a one-man show.

Don was not embarrassed by Mourinho's sudden departure, in fact he had expected it to happen. Jose Mourinho is a very proud man, and in the face of his repeated provocations, it is impossible for him to sit here and continue to answer any questions, play with the people he hates, and think about how he treats Wenger?

So Don was not affected by Mourinho's early departure at all, nor was he like the original West Ham United manager Glenn Brown. Rhodes complained about people's lack of grace like a 10,000-year-old man.

He looked at the stunned group of reporters below, and said with a smile on his face: "First of all, I declare that I don't want to see you define this game as a 'underdog', and I will directly refuse to answer anyone who mentions 'underdog' in the question." We and Chelsea, whoever wins is a normal result. And I don't think even if we win against Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool, it's not an upset. Because we have this strength, but you don't know it. Okay, guys, is there anything you'd like to ask now? ”

No one immediately raised their hands to ask questions, and the media were clearly stunned by the performance of the two coaches, forgetting what they were here for, and there was a buzz in the press conference hall.

Don sat on the table, not caring that no one was asking him any questions, on the contrary, he watched the scene in front of him with great satisfaction.
