Last summer, when Betis Club held a press conference and announced that the new coach was Tang Feng, a young Chinese who was still a translator under Hiddink last season, most of Sevilla and even all of Espanyol thought Lopela was crazy.

At the meeting of the new coaches, Tang Feng faced the repeated doubts of the reporters and made a bold statement: "I will lead the team back to La Liga as the number one in the Segunda Division!"

At that time, many people thought that Tang Feng was sensational. You should know that together with Betis, their city rival Sevilla, and the traditional La Liga Atletico Madrid team. In addition, some teams that already have the ability to advance to the AFC, it was not so easy for Betis to return to La Liga, let alone win the first place.

So, many people are watching Tang Feng's bold words as a joke. Some bookmakers even offered an option for when Tang Feng would be dismissed. Among bettors, almost no one is optimistic that Tang Feng can persist until the end of the season!

In this way, Tang Feng climbed to the position of Betis coach amid doubts, and then dug up some unknown young players from all over the world amid constant doubts.

However, as Tang Feng led Betis to a youth storm in the Spanish Second Division, he was far ahead in the league with an unbeaten result. He also went all the way to the end in the Cup of del Rey and reached the finals.

These doubts gradually faded, and instead more and more people were paying attention to Tang Feng and the Betis team he coached.

They all want to see how long Betis can continue his unbeaten record, how many rounds can he return to La Liga, and whether he can create miracles and win the Copa del Rey as a second-level team!

Now, Tang Feng has revealed the first suspense!

The Betis team he led successfully upgraded six rounds in advance, and then locked in the Spanish Second Division's first identity five rounds in advance.

His promise at the beginning of the season was successfully fulfilled with five games left in the league!

The bookmakers have already closed the options for Tang Feng coaching time, because Tang Feng coached the team until the end of this season, and it became a suspenseful thing as early as the first half of the season.

After the team defeated Albasett and successfully secured the title of the Spanish Second Division, neat cheers rang out in the Lopera stadium.

The names they shouted were not Adriano, the team's top scorer, nor the young captain, Xavi Alonso, nor Betis Golden Boy Joaquin, but their young coach, Tang Feng, who they called "magic Tang"!

In addition to the fans, the media also focused their attention on Shenqi Tang.

This youngest coach in the mainstream European football league today has become the focus of Spain and even Europe for a while!

In the distant China, Chinese media are also reporting on the good news that Tang Feng led the team back to La Liga.

It is said that for this purpose, CCTV Sports Channel also made a special trip to negotiate with the Spanish Football Association, hoping to get the broadcast rights for the La Liga in the next few seasons.

Before this, people would never have imagined that there would be a team of new members who would be so popular!

You know, even the Kaiserslautern, which created the miracle of winning the league championship in the past, did not cause such a big sensation when he was just promoted.

However, Tang Feng and his Betis team did it!

Of course, compared to the fact that Betis has no suspense in upgrading, people are more concerned about the King's Cup final more than a month later.

If it was a miracle that Kaiserslautern won the domestic league championship as a newly promoted team, then it would undoubtedly be a miracle that Betis won the domestic Cup championship as a second-level team.

Looking at the top five European leagues, there are obviously very few such examples.

In recent years, only France has had this situation. And it was last season that the Guern team, who was a team in the Segunda League, incredibly won the final French Cup. And they also successfully returned to Ligue 1 that season.

This scene is so similar to the performance of Betis!

There is no doubt that in addition to Betis fans, there are many fans in Spain looking forward to such a miracle.

Just like the plot of the weak defeating the strong in some movies can always make people excited, on the football field, some unpopular fans who defeat the strong by weak defeating the strong can also make many neutral fans excited!

Betis has already brought down the top three in the La Liga all the way. So can Zaragoza, not far from the relegation zone, stop Betis?

At least the answer in the hearts of Betis fans is no! They are already eager to welcome the club's first championship in 23 years!

...

In fact, after the match against Albasett, Tang Feng began to devote all his energy to preparing for the finals of the Copa del Rey.

In the next five league games, Tang Feng will rotate the lineup with the goal of training.

In the 38th round of the game, facing the Sporting Gijon team, which had basically been upgraded, Betis's substitute lineup tied with him one-to-one.

In the 39th round, facing Getafe, who is basically hopeless to relegate, Betis laughed to the end with two goals from Adriano. Adriano's league goals also reached 31 goals!

In the 40th round, Betis' opponent was Levante, and they had basically lost hope of upgrading. However, their performance was still very tenacious. They faced Betis, who had rotated some of the main players, and had led twice in the game, but they were still tied by Betis's 2-2.

In the 41st round, and the penultimate round of the league this season, Betis ushered in his last home game of the season.

The opponent is the sixth-ranked Vilva team. If Vilva team wants to enter the top three, he still needs to surpass three teams, but he is only five points away from the third-ranked Tenerife team.

With two rounds left in the game, they still have theoretical hope of upgrading!

Although this hope is very small, Vilva still showed their determination to not give up at the Lopela Stadium and sent all the main players to play!

For Tang Feng, this game was not of much significance at first.

However, it has extremely special significance for one person in the team!

This person is Alexis, the old captain of the Betis team!

After the team confirmed its upgrade, Alexis announced that he would hang up his boots after the end of this season.

This decision, which was postponed for a year, came after all!

In this way, this game became Alexis' last chance to perform in front of home fans, and it was his farewell match at home!

Tang Feng also ranked him in the starting lineup without hesitation!

Before the game started, the Betis fans in the stands also showed great humanity.

Although the team's young geniuses have already successfully conquered them, they have not forgotten that Alexis has played for the team for many years and made great contributions!

Posters of Alexis and slogans written to him were everywhere in the stands.

"You are Betis' eternal captain, and this is always your home!"

"Goodbye, captain! Come back and see it often!"

"Captain, we will never forget you!"

...

Every simple slogan that contains emotions all touches people's tear glands.

In the history of Spanish football, Alexis may only be considered an unknown player.

He has only had two national team appearance records, and both games are just irrelevant warm-up matches!

He has not received a decent honor in the past decade and has even been relegated twice with the team!

But his loyalty to the team can be a model for professional players!

After the team was relegated last season, the decision to postpone retirement and contributed the final strength to the team's first-class team even more touched Betis fans!

Although he has not played many games this season, as an experienced veteran, he has undoubtedly brought a lot of wealth to the young players of Betis!

In this game, Vilva played very hard.

As a midfielder, Alexis also played in a very embarrassed manner, but the old captain's fighting spirit supported him to firmly protect the front of the penalty area of ​​Betis.

In order to give the old captain a perfect home farewell game, the other Betis players also played very hard.

Finally, after an hour of the game, Adriano was put in the penalty area, creating a penalty opportunity for the team!

At this time, the fans of the audience shouted in unison, "Alexis! Alexis! Alexis!" I hope this penalty can be kicked by the old captain.

In fact, this is also what all Betis players think.

The old captain Alexis was pushed to the penalty spot!

Although Alexis is wearing the No. 7 jersey symbolizing the offensive midfielder, he has played in a defensive midfielder for most of his career, and his total number of goals in his career can be counted by both hands.

He almost never played a penalty in a formal game!

However, he obviously would not let down the kindness of his young teammates!

The ball was set in the expectant look of more than 50,000 Betis fans in the game and withdrew for a while!

Beep~~~~~ The referee's whistle sounded!

After a simple and unpretentious run-up, Alexis drew the ball into the middle of the goal!

The goalkeeper of Vilva seemed to be very "cooperating". He rushed to his left with all his might, and then watched the ball fly into the goal from the middle Lions!

At this moment, the entire Lopela Stadium was in a state of madness!

Tang Feng also walked to the sidelines with an excited look on his face and presented his applause to the old captain!

Alexis' celebration after scoring the goal also seemed so simple, just like his football style. He stood in the middle of the court and bowed to the fans in the stands around him.

In return to the old captain, Betis fans echoed the applause from the audience!

Being able to score a goal in the home farewell match is obviously a great ending!

Before we knew it, the game reached the 80th minute!

As a substitute midfielder Senna has already warmed up on the sidelines, and many fans have realized that the time to say goodbye is coming!

As Joaquin dribbled the ball and was destroyed by the opponent from the sideline, the referee blew the whistle of a substitution.

Senna stood on the sidelines, and the sign raised by the fourth official appeared Alexis' number 7!

After looking at the electronic cards in the fourth official's hand, Alexis seemed a little reluctant. He felt that he had not played enough. But he also knew very well that this was a kind of caring expression from Tang Feng!

Tang Feng is giving him a chance to enjoy the applause of the fans alone in this way!

After glanced at the captain's armband on his left arm, Alexis took it off with some reluctance, and then kissed it gently.

Then, he ran to Xavi Alonso not far away and put the captain's armband on Xavi Alonso's left arm.
