The road to godhood starting from Ligue 1

Chapter 70 Thirty million euros!
Deschamps saw that this kind of game, which would be considered a big upset even in the French Cup, happened to him.

For a moment, I was a little confused.

Even the Marseille fans were confused. They had just won the French Ligue 1 championship in 2010. Now they were told that their full main lineup had never played against a French league team?

First time after the game.

French media L'Equipe pointed out that Germany has not paid enough attention to Quevilly Rouen. Although the starting lineup is composed of the main players, it lacks targeted tactics, which leads to the players' casual attitude.

Some commentators believe that Deschamps failed to adjust the defense in time when the opponent counterattacked, especially the lack of response to the loopholes in the set-piece defense.

This was also the root cause of the final defeat.

Of course.

Most fans blamed the players' attitude and were relatively tolerant of Deschamps, believing that being eliminated from the cup was just an "accident."

After all, Deschamps led Marseille as captain to defeat AC Milan and become the first French team to win the Champions League.

It is also the only French Champions League champion.

In 1993, Marseille was stripped of the league title and relegated due to a match-fixing scandal. Deschamps chose to stay with the team and help the team return to Ligue 1.

After becoming the coach of Marseille, he ended Marseille's 18-year league title drought and was elected Ligue 1 Coach of the Year.

Take out these honors.

Which fan is willing to blame him for this mistake?

Marseille's top management is also unwilling to delve into the matter.

They want to keep Deschamps.

However, Deschamps has never chosen to renew his contract.

Deschamps currently has only three months left on his coaching contract with Marseille, which will end at the end of the season in June.

The top management is eager for Deschamps to continue leading the team, so how could they dare to delve into his defeat in this game?

That night, Zidane also publicly supported Deschamps, saying that "the randomness of the cup competition far exceeds that of the league, and this should not be used to deny Deschamps' ability."

The two were the core partners of the 1998 World Cup and 2000 European Cup winning teams, with Deschamps as captain and Zidane as the core of the frontcourt.

They have a very close personal relationship.

So apart from the media, no one bothered Deschamps about this matter.

On the contrary, it was Deschamps himself who made it clear in the post-match interview that the result of the game was "disappointing and unacceptable", admitting that the team's performance was below expectations.

He mentioned: "We have no excuses. The opponent showed more determination, while we lacked the attitude and concentration we should have."

"When you play lower division teams in cup competitions you have to give 200 per cent and we clearly didn't do that. It's a letdown for the club and the fans."

Gaio turned off the TV.

He didn't continue watching Deschamps' interview. He thought Bastia had a chance to face Marseille, but he didn't expect that he had forgotten this game, which was a stain in Deschamps' coaching career.

This game is a famous example of an upset in the history of the French Cup.

The third-tier team eliminated Marseille, the French Ligue 1 champion and a team in the knockout stage of the Champions League.

It was indeed a big upset.

of course.

In this year's French Cup quarter-finals, not only Marseille was upset, but Montpellier also lost to the French national team GFC Ajaccio.

This GFC Ajaccio has nothing to do with Ajaccio in Ligue 1. They are just teams from Corsica.

But unlike Deschamps, Montpellier gave up the game on their own.

Playing with all substitutes seems like they are losing on purpose.

This season, Montpellier found themselves at the top of the Ligue 1 table.

In order to go all out for the Ligue 1 title, Montpellier simply gave up the French Cup.

As a result, there is only one Ligue 1 team, Lyon, in the French Cup semi-finals.

Gaio found this result quite interesting. Who would have thought that two French national teams would be among the French Cup semi-finalists?

Bastia will face Quevilly-Rouen, who defeated Marseille, in early April.

If you can defeat them.

The final will most likely be against Lyon.

Lyon has no ambition this season. The French Cup is the only competition they have a chance of winning, so they will not underestimate their opponents.

And Gaio also wants to win the French Cup.

This is a chance to play in the Europa League next season!

He now needs high-level competition to get more winning points. If he does not transfer in the summer window, the Europa League is obviously his best platform.

But transfers?

Which team that competes in European competitions can he go to and be given an absolute starting position?

almost none.

Those wealthy teams will at most train him for the future, but will not immediately give him a core position.

The other players won't be satisfied either.

Therefore, transferring is the right choice only when you are strong enough.

at the same time.

After seeing that their semi-final opponent was a French national team, Chatham happily said to Hajibegic, "We can prepare for the final against Lyon in advance. You should study them carefully."

Hajibegic didn't agree with that, but replied, "Deschamps probably thinks the same thing. He may have already figured out how to restrain Gaio. However, they have already been eliminated from the French Cup."

Chatham raised his hands in surrender. "Okay, okay, I don't care about the specific details of the game. That's your right. But in the next French Ligue 2, I hope you can help Geodo score as many goals as possible. I think the Ligue 2 Golden Boot will also increase his value."

Hagibegic couldn't help but feel a little angry. Did he just want Gaio to score this goal?
However, considering that since Gaio appeared, Chatham has almost no direct command of the team, and all his attention is on Gaio.

This finally allowed him to let go and direct the team, instead of having someone pointing fingers every time he was arranging the lineup, telling him who could play and who couldn't.

So, now he endures it!
"it is good."

Hagibegic is actually also eager for the French Cup championship. At the current league level, because Clermont and Reims have lost successively, their lead has expanded to six points.

It’s pretty good, and there are no strong opponents in the subsequent schedule.

There are still ten league games left.
Plus two possible French Cup matches.

As long as they win the last 12 games of this season, they will be the double champions!

There are only three days of rest after the matches between Bastia and Rennes.

They are about to travel to challenge Arles.

This is also the team Davide may join after the end of this season. Davide's agent is currently in contact with Arles.

David also quietly told Vincent about the funny things going on in Arles.

"They told me that if I could bring Gaio to Arles, my salary would be five times higher."

"Do I need his salary? If I could decide which team Gaio went to, I wouldn't care if the commission was less than 10 million."

Haha!

They both laughed.

Laughing, Davide exclaimed, "I never thought that in just a few months, we saw a guy without a ball become worth 30 million euros, the highest value in Ligue 2!"
