"Hi! Come on! Our whole family will go to see the next game.●⌒"

"Good job, Don!"

"Isn't that the head coach of Cambridge United? So young?"

...

Tang Hua asked himself that he was not a person who could easily be floating, but in recent times, he did feel the wind under his feet. From his residence to the small training ground in Cambridge United, it was less than two kilometers away, and there was a residential area in the middle. Every morning in the past month, when Tang Hua passed by, there were always people who greeted him, met, didn’t know, met, and had never met... Everyone had a kind smile on his face and had encouragement in his words. Even if he pointed and pointed at him who was not usually related to politeness, he would mostly get some understanding eyes.

Of course, there is no reason for this.

In Cambridge United, the most famous one is naturally the world-famous university, but this does not mean that all Cambridge people will "squint". This is not Brazil, but it is also a country of football. It cannot be said that everyone likes football, but football has become a part of everyone's life. Therefore, when Cambridge United became a profession from amateur, this unobtrusive team has entered the lives of most Cambridge people, and now, this team that has just returned to the professional league will have the opportunity to go further.

The regular league of the English League Two is approaching its end. Twenty-four teams, forty-three games have passed forty-six games, just yesterday. Cambridge United defeated Cheltenham, the second-last in the away game, and ranked seventh in the English League Two with 18 wins, 11 draws and 14 losses.

It's just enough to qualify for an upgraded playoff.

In England's professional football landscape, the English League Two is just a bottom stage. Not many people will pay attention to everything that happens here. However, this does not mean that some exciting things cannot happen here. Cambridge United, who was still in the amateur league last year, had the opportunity to "jump for two consecutive times" in his first season when he returned to the English League Two. This is a big and small miracle for Cambridge United, who set his goal at the beginning of the season.

There is no so-called transfer fee, only the salary of a few formal employees, no professional training ground, and only the stadium is used as a training ground, and sometimes it is necessary to avoid the turf maintenance time on game days. Even when the last time he was hit by a pie called "Manchester United" in the FA Cup, when Chairman Dave Daogen mentioned how to spend the "huge" bonus in an interview with reporters, the first thing he mentioned was not a raise, but a toilet repair.

Yes, I heard it right, Dave Dogen is going to spend that money on home repairs, including building some toilets.

If it can be upgraded, it will be another big and small pie for Cambridge United.

Like almost all professional football clubs, Cambridge United's fiscal revenue is the most stable. The right to broadcast the right to broadcast tickets and TV. Of course, as a British League Two club, these two incomes are stable but very small. In addition to these two incomes, there are two incomes that are the "extra money" of low-level clubs, one is the cup prize, and the other is the promotion and relegation fund. Because England stipulates that if the promotion and relegation cross-asset upgrade, the clubs that are promoted and relegated can receive a compensation. This is also determined by the situation of the English Professional League itself. In the English League Four League, the Premier League is managed separately, while the English Championship is the English Championship Committee. The English League One and English League Two are in the hands of the English League Committee.

From the English League Two to the English League One, since they are all managed by the English League Committee, they do not involve the so-called compensation issues. However, upgrading itself means an increase in various incomes.

Tang Hua certainly has the qualification to be so arrogant to bring Cambridge to this current ranking, especially when Cambridge United has maintained eight rounds of unbeaten and five consecutive victories in all competitions, everything seems to be developing in a good direction. The team's outstanding condition has also driven the enthusiasm of local fans to watch the ball in recent games, and Abbe's Stadium has been full.

However, when you are most proud, it is also the time when you are about to be unlucky. This is the so-called extreme happiness leads to sadness, which is the same as the extreme bad luck that brings good luck.

April 18th, the 44th round of the League Two, Abe Stadium.

Cambridge United scored one goal and was reversed by Mansfield three goals.

When the referee blew the whistle, there was no booing in the stands of Abe Stadium, but there was some applause. The failure was disappointing, but Cambridge United had performed well enough during this period. However, the fans' understanding did not make Tang Hua, who was standing on the sidelines, feel a little comforted, because he knew very well that most of the responsibility for this defeat should be attributed to him.

Never underestimate any opponent.

Even the most junior footballer knows this simple truth, and this truth proves its correctness all the time. However, this truth is always ignored at all times.

The reason why Tang Hua is so proud is naturally not without reason. The most direct reason is that Cambridge United is in a hot state recently. In the League Two, it is quite meaningful to encounter gods, kill gods, and kill Buddhas. Among Cambridge United's past five consecutive victories, it even includes Shrewsbury, who currently ranks second in the league and Berry, who ranks third. In this case, it is actually normal for people to look down on Mansfield, who ranks fourth from the bottom in this game.

However, the current human nature has made the Cambridge Union situation turn a little sharply.

Before this game, Cambridge United led Plymouth, who was eighth-placed in points, which was originally a relatively safe point difference, especially after winning Shrewsbury and Berry one after another, the opponents in the last three rounds were Mansfield, which is today's opponent, as well as Oxford United and Burton.

Among these three opponents, Mansfield, ranked fourth from the bottom, is the weakest opponent. Although Oxford United currently has a ranking of no desires, based on the "grudges" between the two teams, the other party obviously will not be willing to watch Cambridge United upgrade, even if it is just a chance. As for the last opponent, Burton, it is the champion of the League Two this season, the champion who won the championship four rounds ahead of schedule.

In this case, the importance of this game to Mansfield can be imagined. If you win this game, although it cannot be said that you will ensure the qualification of the playoffs, at least in the next two games, Cambridge United can face it with a more relaxed attitude, but now Cambridge United has lost the game, and before that, Plymouth has won the game. In other words, Cambridge United has only one point in the advantage.

What does this mean? This means that in the last two games, if Cambridge United still wants to take their destiny in their own hands, they have no choice but to win.

Tang Hua took a deep breath on the sidelines.

Now, regret why this game did not continue Cambridge United's most skilled defensive counterattack before, and why they were so eager to achieve success, these are useless. The game has ended, and what they should face is ultimately faced.

As the team members who were walking down, Tang Hua's face returned to calm.

He is no longer the taciturn assistant standing behind Lin Sen. Now, he is the backbone of the team. First, he must hold his head up, straighten his chest, and then look straight ahead.

This team that has brought hope and surprise to all Cambridge United fans is actually far from being a team full of hope. It is not a team that is young at an average age. If Lin Sen used to clean up his way when he took over Manchester City, I am afraid that Cambridge Lenovo will have something to do with "hope" and will have to change to a new team. In short, this is a team with a lot of "thinking".

Of course, you can't accuse the players of being "half-minded" because everyone needs life.

It is precisely because of this lineup that Cambridge United has achieved its current results. However, no matter whether Cambridge United can qualify for the playoffs this season or whether it can really go to the First Division, Tang Hua knows that many people in this team will probably leave, because what determines these is not just the head coach's wishes, age, treatment, ability... are factors that you must consider, and these factors are something he cannot decide.

Tang Hua dared not say how deep friendship he had had after only one year of being with these players. That was unrealistic, but this was the first team he took over, and he absolutely did not want to see some of the players in this group leave empty-handedly.

The longer Tang Hua can sit in the position of the head coach, the more he can feel the responsibility of this position.

I used to sit behind Lin Sen and look at his back, thinking that the difference between the head coach and other coaches was just the innocent thoughts on the front and behind the scenes. I don’t know when it has completely changed.

A week later, Cambridge United, whose unbeaten record and winning streak were zero, challenged Oxford United in a visit to Oxford. This time, Cambridge United did not give the opponent even a chance. In the whole game, Oxford United only got three shots, all of which missed the goal, while Cambridge United relied on a counterattacking hand.

The score is one to zero.

Cambridge United returns to victory track.

However, since Plymouth also won this round, the last playoff spot could only be dragged to the last round.

At the same time, at the top of the English Professional League's pyramid, the Premier League's championship drama is still ongoing, although everyone knows that there is no suspense that Mourinho's Chelsea will become the league champion this season. After thirty-four rounds, with only four rounds left in the league, Chelsea will lead second-place Arsenal to a maximum of ten. As long as Chelsea wins the next game, they will win the championship three rounds ahead of schedule.
