The Spanish Super Cup is the third championship trophy that Tang Feng and Betis won in 2002. Four days later, there is another championship trophy waiting for them to compete, which is the European Super Cup final, which is known as the "King of Europe" battle.

In this game, Betis's opponent will be the Champions League champion last season, and Real Madrid also comes from La Liga!

The outside media also have different opinions on this game.

Many media and fans believe that the super giant Real Madrid defeated Betis should be no problem.

They analyzed it from the perspective of strength. Real Madrid was the champion of the Champions League last season, while Betis only won a League Cup championship that was regarded as a waste by the giant team. In terms of lineup, Real Madrid has world-class superstars such as Raul, Zidane, Figo, and Carlos, and the best scorer in the World Cup this summer. Alien Ronaldo was also revealed to join Real Madrid before the transfer gate was closed!

Although Betis has many talented new stars in the team, the only big-name stars that can truly pass the test are Guardiola and Van der Sar. Moreover, in the eyes of the media, Betis's best scorer left Milan in the first two seasons, which was a big blow to Betis. You should know that Adriano scored goals in all the games he represented Betis against Real Madrid, and was a veritable "Real Madrid nemesis". After he left, whether Betis could find a way to break the Real Madrid goal is a question.

However, a considerable number of media and fans are optimistic that Betis overturned the big ship Real Madrid.

They have all learned about the battle between Real Madrid and Betis in the past two seasons. What surprised many people was that in the two seasons, Betis actually lost only one game and had an absolute advantage!

In the league, King's Cup, and Spanish Super Cup, Betis has played against Real Madrid and has all gained the upper hand. This also gave Betis a nickname of "Real Madrid nemesis".

In the process of fighting wits and courage with Real Madrid coach Boske, the magical Tang was not at all inferior. It was impossible to tell that Boske was twenty-five years older than Tang Feng!

In addition, some media are optimistic about Betis, and there is another reason, that is, there is a small curse in the European Super Cup.

That is, since the 1998 European Super Cup, when it changed from a two-round home and away system to a single-game winning and losing system, the Champions League winners have never won the Super Cup again.

Among them, Real Madrid participated in the two Super Cups in 1998 and 2000, and they lost to Chelsea, the winners of the 97-98 season, and Galatasaray, the winners of the 99-00 season.

Moreover, for Real Madrid, even though it traces back to the history of home and away double-round, Real Madrid, the European overlord, has never been involved in the Super Cup. Of course, the most important reason is that when Real Madrid completed the five consecutive Champions League championships, the European Super Cup was not yet established.

In short, before the game started, the media were trying to express their opinions and analyzing the situation of both sides.

...

After one day off, Tang Feng took the team to Monaco, the venue of the Super Cup.

The Principality of Monaco is a city-state in Europe and the second smallest country in the world, but it is just a little bigger than the Vatican.

Although this country is small and a micro country, its economy is extremely developed. The country is mainly based on gambling, tourism and banking industries. They have achieved great success in the diversification of services and small, high-value-added and pollution-free industries.

The most attractive thing here is the system without income tax payment, which has attracted a large number of wealthy tax-avoiding immigrants from other European countries.

Moreover, due to the country's special system of income tax exemption, the Monaco club that participates in Ligue 1 can often attract some outstanding players with some high salaries, and have achieved good results in these seasons.

The reason why I came to Monaco in advance was not only to let the team experience the environment in Monaco in advance, but also because before the Super Cup, Tang Feng would first participate in the draw ceremony of the group stage of the Champions League next season!

After arriving in Monaco, Tang Feng also gave the players half a day off.

He knew that when he went to a city like Monaco, he would probably make the players feel dissatisfied.

Instead of letting them break the rules and sneak out to play, it’s better to be generous and give them a half-day vacation to let them relax.

However, after holidays, Tang Feng still made three decisions with the players in advance: First, players must return to the team on time in accordance with regulations. Secondly, players can be allowed to go to casinos or bars, but they cannot drink alcohol or bet!

The reason for this regulation is that Tang Feng is also worried about the self-control of these young players in the team.

Needless to say, drinking heavily, when you are about to face Real Madrid in two or three days, alcoholism will definitely affect your condition. As for gambling, although players should be considered high-paying professions. However, in large betting countries like Monaco, young players like Betis who have annual salary of hundreds of thousands or millions are not rich.

Moreover, a little rational person knows that in a probabilistic game like gambling, the winner will only be a casino!

It is no exaggeration to say that the casino dares to let them lose as much as the players dare to bring.

Tang Feng didn't expect these players to get into gambling habits at a young age. After all, players are also a good meal. Except for a few players who can find coaches and other football-related jobs after retirement, most players may have to rely on the money they earn from playing football to invest in other projects to make a living. If the players squander the money they earn from playing football when they are young, the wait for them is likely to be a miserable second half of their life!

The players are still willing to listen to Tang Feng's words.

Therefore, the people they went to the casino simply with the idea of ​​enjoying themselves with the idea of ​​gambling.

Although Tang Feng has always managed young players in a mature way, he is actually just a 26-year-old young man himself.

Therefore, when Tang Feng came to a European casino like Monaco, he also planned to see it.

Originally, Tang Feng planned to call Boas with him, but who knew that Boas actually said that he was not interested in the casino.

This made Tang Feng exclaim that this guy is not a man. Shouldn’t men all like the exciting feeling of casinos?

If Boas doesn't go, Tang Feng can only go alone.

So he put on a pair of sunglasses, headed with a baseball cap and went out.

Because he was not familiar with the market, Tang Feng also took a taxi and sent him to a more famous casino in Monaco.

After entering, Tang Feng exchanged himself for five thousand euros of chips.

He told the players not to bet, and he naturally set an example.

After changing the chips, Tang Feng began to shuttle through the various gambling tables in the casino like a flash.

Blackjack, Texas Hold'em, Roulette, Baccarat... These projects that Tang Feng could only see in movies or QQ games before traveling through time. Today, Tang Feng can experience them personally.

I have to admit that this kind of face-to-face gambling is indeed much more exciting than facing the cold computer screen.

Tang Feng also had a great time playing!

In the casino, Tang Feng also met some acquaintances. Among these acquaintances were players from his team and some coaches who attended the lottery ceremony.

Everyone dresses like Tang Feng and is relatively low-key.

Therefore, Tang Feng did not say hello to them either.

Needless to say, Tang Feng doesn't expect to be able to play with them. Although he can also play jokes with the players in private in the team. But he is the team's coach after all, and it feels like a class teacher or a family parent.

Which student would like to meet a class teacher in the game hall, and which child would like to be around her when playing with friends?

As for other coaches, Tang Feng knew that at the award ceremony the day after tomorrow, everyone would have the opportunity to meet and say hello. So he was not in a hurry.

In half an afternoon, Tang Feng played all the interesting projects in the casino and planned to leave.

After looking at the chips in his hand, it had become 8500 euros without realizing it. Tang Feng was obviously lucky and even won 3500 euros. This amount of money may not be anything to Tang Feng now, but if it was converted into RMB, it might be able to catch up with the income of some ordinary working families in China for more than half a year.

After exchanging the chips for cash, Tang Feng left with a smile.

He remembered a statement he had heard before, that is, many casinos will appropriately let some new faces who come to the casino for the first time, so that you can taste the sweetness of gambling. Then, once you get addicted to it, the casino will immediately become an abyss that will never be restored!

Tang Feng didn't know whether this statement was reliable, but he won money when he came for the first time. He planned to ask the players who were also coming for the first time tomorrow how the battle situation was.

After leaving the casino, Tang Feng did not go back immediately, but called Boas.

Although Boas said he would not come to the casino, he must have gone out to visit, and Tang Feng also planned to go over and enjoy the scenery of Monaco with him.

Sure enough, after the phone was called, Boas told Tang Feng that he was at the Napoleon Memorial Hall.

Tang Feng immediately took a taxi and rushed over!

After buying a ticket and entering the Monaco Memorial Hall, Tang Feng and Boas met.

This memorial hall displays more than 1,000 physical objects and documents from the First Empire of France (personal belongings of Emperor Napoleon I, clothing of the Roman king and relics left on the island of Saint-Heron). In addition, the exhibits include the official medal of Monaco (i.e. the Order of Grimaldi and the Order of Saint-Charles), as well as the medals awarded by foreign countries to the Monaco Monaco.

Although he is not very interested in history, he still knows Napoleon, the most famous monarch in French history.

Without commenting on his way of governing and his character, Napoleon was definitely an outstanding genius in terms of military affairs alone!

To a certain extent, isn’t football also considered a war in peacetime?

In this way, I am a commander. Can I make a big stride on the green field like Napoleon?

PS: After finishing the code the day before yesterday, I went to a party with my friends. As a result, I played all night and got drunk.

And the ankle was scratched.

The next day, I went to the hospital for a bandage, got a tetanus injection, and then I slept for a long time without any time to update.

I just wrote ten thousand words for a day, but I ran out of the ticket the next day. I despised myself very much.
Chapter completed!
