"The game is over. The first two rounds of La Liga are over, and the newly promoted Extremadura has won two consecutive victories. In the second round of La Liga, Extremadura even scored [-]-[-] A shock away win against Valencia."

At the end of the game, the commentator was very surprised.Although Valencia was in turmoil during that time because of Mijatovic's sudden departure.Roig resigned and the club's head coach changed, but after Ranieri came, he has gradually stabilized Valencia, and his performance has steadily increased.Now Valencia is still very strong.

At the beginning of this season, the media believed that Valencia was a team with the strength to compete for the championship.But I didn't expect to be planted in the second round.Losing is not terrible, but losing to a newly promoted team is a bit embarrassing, and it is still at home.An upset loss to Extremadura surprised all Valencia fans.The narrator didn't know what to say.

"Congratulations, Chairman Crespi."

The game was lost, but Roeg did not leave without leaving, but congratulated Tuni Crespi.These people like to maintain their own demeanor. As a famous family in Valencia for 200 years, Roig has learned this demeanor since he was a child.After congratulating Tuni Crespi, Roeg nodded to Rist before turning and leaving.Those high-level officials in Valencia who didn't look very good-looking also left with Roig.

"Congratulations, Tuney."

Rist stood up to congratulate Tuni Crespi.Tuni Crespi is also very excited now, but he heard Rist's congratulations.Smiling, he held Rist's hand and said with a smile, "Rist, I want to thank you."

"To each other. You and I are mutually beneficial, and there will be a long time to cooperate in the future."

The two congratulated each other before leaving the court, because both of them were in a good mood.

After the game, all the media believed that Extremadura was the big dark horse.As a 38-year-old young coach, Benitez also began to appear in front of the media for the first time.Of course, everyone is paying attention to what kind of dark horse Extremadura will be.It's just that the little dark horse that just appeared is still a big dark horse that can be blacked out to the end.

Extremadura's schedule this season is not very good. In the third round of La Liga, Extremadura met Barcelona away.This time Benitez failed to create the myth of the dark horse, and was scored by Cocu, who had just moved to Barcelona, ​​with a long shot.In the end, Extremadura lost [-]-[-] away to Barcelona.

In the fourth round of La Liga, the Extremadura club returned to their home court and met Real Betis.The game was dull.Betis is the club's most valuable player.Denilson, who has been boasted by the media, has no performance in the game.Indulging in his own personal breakthrough on the wing, it is a pity that the defense organized by Benitez is very effective.Denilson crashed into the crowd in Extremadura again and again, and he didn't know how to cooperate with other players at all, and the essence of parallel imports was undoubtedly revealed.In the end it was a one-to-one home draw.

In the fifth round of La Liga, they met Real Madrid at home.Extremadura lost [-]-[-] at home.Both Raul and Mijatovic scored twice.Plus a Hierro goal.Played five goals against Extremadura, who have defended very well this season.In the first four games, Extremadura conceded only two goals, but this game conceded five goals in one go.

This fiasco made many media think that Extremadura had revealed his true colors.Many felt that Extremadura's dark horse had faded.However, in the sixth round of La Liga, Extremadura met Alaves away.Alaves' performance in recent seasons has been very good.But Extremadura scored the only goal with a header from Fan Zhiyi from a free kick.In the end, they defeated Alaves [-]-[-] away.

Slowly Benitez's defense is getting better and better.In the seventh round of La Liga, Extremadura met the Spaniard at home, and Luis Garcia scored a goal with another free kick.Once again, it was a one-to-zero victory over the opponent.

At the end of the seven rounds, Extremadura turned out to have four wins, one draw and two losses, with a total of 4 points.It turned out to be ranked No.[-] in La Liga.This surprised everyone.

However, Extremadura, who had won two consecutive victories, was tied in the eighth round of La Liga.In the away game against Spain, although Jan Koller opened the scoring for Extremadura, the Spaniard scored an equalizer at the end of the game.The three points in hand are gone, only one point is left.

Although there is only one point, Extremadura still has 5 points at the end of eight rounds, ranking No.[-] in La Liga.This is a very remarkable achievement.At the beginning of the season, Extremadura was still a big favorite for relegation. Now that the game has been played, many people no longer think that he is a relegation team.

La Liga football was shocked.But there are also many criticisms, because Benitez is a solid defense, and then uses several counterattacks and set-piece tactics.Because he has a good defensive ability, coupled with Jan Koller's high point in the frontcourt, Vicente's surprise ability, and Luis Garcia's comprehensiveness.This is Extremadura transformed by Benitez.

In an environment where Spain values ​​technology, having Valencia is already a headache, and now Extremadura is playing like this again.Therefore, while many media exclaimed that Extremadura is a dark horse, they also criticized Benitez's style of play.

Riester can't let this impression freeze on the young Benitez.Therefore, Riester is going to visit the reporter of "Marca", the largest sports newspaper in Spain.

…………

"Jose, long time no see."

"Marca" is a very popular sports newspaper in Spain.The newspaper mainly reports football matches, supplemented by other sports news. It has a wide range of information sources and often publishes explosive fake news at the first time, which has attracted great attention from fans all over the world.Headquartered in Madrid, Spain.This year marks the sixtieth anniversary of the establishment of "Marca".

It was the well-known reporter of the "Marca" that Lister came to find.He is in the fifth year of "Marca".Although he is not yet the top reporter of "Marca", he is also a well-known reporter Jose Felix.Because Poborski doesn't like media interviews, Riester didn't arrange any media interviews for him.But after all, Poboski's performance is getting better and better now, and Deportivo's performance in the past two years is also very good.So reporters who want to interview Poborski are still queuing.Rist gets many applications from media reporters every day, hoping to report on Poborski.

But after discussing with Poborski, Rist quickly decided on who to cooperate with.At present, there are only two media in Spain that can interview Poborski, one is the local media in La Coruña, and the other is "Marca". "Reporter Jose Felix.

Because of this relationship, Rist and Jose Felix have a pretty good personal relationship.When Rist chose Felix, he was just an ordinary reporter.But just being able to interview Poborski independently, Felix has his own status in "Marca".

"Rist. Didn't we just meet a month ago? Come on. I'll make you a cup of coffee. Don't feel bad about it. I'm not as good as a big manager like you."

"It's good to drink some. I don't choose."

Rist and Jose Felix are mutually beneficial.Poborski was reluctant to be interviewed, but Rist had to make news for him.Because Rist needs a reporter like Felix.Felix has only been at Marca for five years.He needs some stars to be able to improve his status in the press.

Bobowski is low-key though.But his performance in Deportivo is obvious to all.He was the only reporter able to interview Poborski alone.He's the source of many of Poborski's scoops.Also indirectly began to improve his status in "Marca".

"What's the matter today? I used to look for you before, but I never saw you looking for me. And just give me a call. Why don't you want to give me exclusive news?"

After giving Rist a cup of coffee, Felix asked Rist.

"No, I didn't send you news today, but came here to beg you."

"I don't dare to take it, so don't tell jokes."

Felix shook his head. Now it is Rist who has become more and more outstanding as Poboski's performance, and his status in La Liga football is also getting higher and higher.Only reporters ask for Rist, and Rist does not ask many reporters.Moreover, Felix hadn't reached a very high level yet. Generally speaking, he was asking Rist.

"Jose, I mean it. Do you know the current head coach of Extremadura, Rafael Benitez?"

"Of course, this is a big dark horse. And I am familiar with Rafael. He has led the Real Madrid youth team to play games and served as an assistant coach for Bosque. His performance this season is good."

Rister nodded.Benitez is also produced by Real Madrid. As the closest media to Real Madrid, "Marca" is familiar with coaches like Benitez.

"Jose, Rafael is my coach."

"Oh?"

Felix really doesn't know that the current football coach is not as strong as he was later, and he is not a star.The agents behind the coaches are still in the minority.

"Jose, you also know that Rafael's grades are good recently. He is only 38 years old and has such good grades. Isn't it bad to be too harsh. Your "Marca" has always been a newspaper that upholds justice. Protect a young coach like Rafael. How can you say that he is still a coach produced by Real Madrid, don't you think?"

Felix immediately understood what Rist meant.As for what Rist said that "Marca" is a newspaper that upholds justice, even Felix himself felt blush.Because although "Marca" is a well-known newspaper in Spain, who doesn't know that taking out of context and fabricating news is a major feature of "Marca".Although not as obscene as the "Sun" in England, it is also known for creating explosive scandals.

The important thing is that because of the political factors behind the "Marca", as long as they have a bad relationship with them, they can do everything possible to criticize and ridicule them.Spanish newspapers have such factors.English newspapers are all about sales, and Spanish newspapers are all about their political leanings.Even football is no exception.

As for helping Rist boast about Benitez, that's not a huge problem for Felix. "Marca" is the official newspaper of Real Madrid, as long as Benitez and Real Madrid are linked together, there is still a big gimmick.After all, Benitez is a real Real Madrid coach.

"Rist, I understand what you mean. There is no problem."

"Thank you, Jose. I heard that your "Marca" is very interested in the young star Vicente who is currently doing well."

"Of course, although he is not yet the main player of Extremadura, his performance is obvious to all. He is also a young talent in La Liga. When he becomes famous in the future, it will be difficult to interview him. Of course, our newspaper I hope to have a good relationship with him before he is famous. Why, this news was given to me?"

Rister nodded.He smiled and said: "Jose, half of the ownership of Vicente is still in my hands. He is still young, I hope I don't over-promote him. I will not let him appear frequently in front of the media. And he is young, it is easy Wrong words. If you can master the fire, then I will give Vicente the exclusive interview rights in the future to you."

"Haha, really! Rist, then I thank you in advance."

Felix was very happy, stood up and took Rist's hand.Vicente has only started twice this season and played off the bench four times, but he has two assists in his limited playing time.And his breakthrough on the left has attracted a lot of media attention.Being able to get his scoop might not be a big deal right now, but Felix knows the future benefits are innumerable.

"You do me a favor, and I will help you."

It is also of great benefit to Rist to have the help of a big-name reporter.After all, it is absolutely impossible to separate the players and the media.Players need reporters, and reporters cannot do without players.

Because the two people were familiar with the matter of Bobowski, they casually said some digressions.Jose Felix was also a busy man, so Rist left Felix's office.Of course, Felix also sent Rist off. Just as he walked out, he heard a voice beside him.

"Son, I'm sorry. I'm a reporter, not an agent." (To be continued...)
