"Suke!!! What a great shot!"

The whole stadium is shaking!

In the goal just scored by Real Madrid, Suker turned his back and played the ball with his heel. The whole movement was smooth and smooth, and he accurately sent the ball to the position in front of Bell.

Not only did he successfully attract defensive attention and keep defensive players close to him.

At the same time, in the process, he also made a cool passing assist.

Although this kind of pass does not have the visual impact of a fierce breakthrough, the thrill of tearing apart the last line of defense is like a sharp knife piercing the opponent's defense. This feeling is also extremely wonderful.

Of course, this is all bad for Valencia fans.

They themselves did not perform well in the early stages of this season, and now that they are being beaten on the head by Real Madrid, they naturally feel aggrieved.

But there is no way!

If you play poorly, you will be punished!

As for Real Madrid, they scored early in the first half, and Suker completed a pass and a shot in 40 minutes!

In the first half, Real Madrid led Valencia 2:0.

During the halftime break, Ancelotti was making tactical adjustments in the Real Madrid dressing room.

"In the second half, Pato came on as a substitute." Ancelotti looked at Suker; "You take a rest!"

Su Ke also nodded to express his understanding.

He knew very well that the real war would not begin until the winter break was over, and that would be the moment when Su Ke completely broke out.

Now it’s just a matter of finding the status and ensuring your health!

The last game before the winter break.

The winter break of each league is different. La Liga is slightly longer, with about three weeks of rest.

However, almost no one has the idea of ​​​​taking a vacation at this stage.

That's it for the league, the 2014 World Cup is coming and they need to prepare well.

Especially in Real Madrid, a top club, almost all players are the main players of the national team. Except for players like Bell whose national team failed to enter the World Cup, most of the others have to go back for training.

Su Ke is naturally no exception!

At the beginning of the second half, Suker was substituted in the 55th minute.

Pato came off the bench to replace Suker in the game.

After Suker came off the field, Valencia was obviously relieved and felt that the game should be relatively easy.

But they soon discovered that it was not what they imagined.

After Pato came on the field, this guy was particularly active, especially his frequent attacks on the left wing, which made Valencia somewhat overwhelmed.

In addition, Kroos is also in good condition, full of offensive desire, and constantly delivering shells to the frontcourt, which makes Valencia feel even more pressure.

Although Pato and Bell are not the type of Suker who can directly score a goal as long as he makes a small mistake.

Compared to Suk, the efficiency of these two people is still lower.

However, these two people had more desire to attack and attacked desperately, which also caused them to feel even more pressure.

"Is this because you're holding it back?"

Suk sat on the bench and couldn't help grinning and shaking his head.

"Can't you hold it back!" Kaka shook his head and said; "The core players of Milan in the past had to undergo adjustments after coming to Real Madrid. Most of them were substitutes and rotations. It must be very frustrating."

Su Ke: "Who asked him to come to Real Madrid!"

He still thinks that Pato coming to Real Madrid is not a good thing. Simply from Real Madrid's perspective, this can broaden the thickness of the bench.

But for Pato, he came too late!

If it were earlier, maybe we could compete for the main position.

But now that the tactics and lineup are determined, it will take more time and experience for him to compete.

Of course, that doesn't mean he didn't play.

In Real Madrid, even if you are a substitute, you will not be reduced to the level of not playing in the game.

After all, it is normal for Real Madrid to fight on multiple fronts!

The main players almost always focus on the main events, namely the league and the Champions League. As for other events such as the King's Cup and some small cups, these are good opportunities for substitute games.

Therefore, there will be no problem of no games.

However, the intensity of the competition is not enough, which is not particularly beneficial to their own growth.

On the field, Valencia's game state was indeed very poor.

This season, perhaps because of selling too many key players, or perhaps for psychological reasons, the overall performance is really not very good.

A powerful team in La Liga played poorly.

The lack of desire to attack, the inability to defend, and the lack of energy when playing made the home fans feel frustrated.

Just looking at the current situation of the game, we can already predict the outcome.

There were no surprises, the game ended neatly with 3:0.

Real Madrid scored another goal in the 76th minute from Benzema, and Pato, who came on as a substitute, received an assist.

Real Madrid ended the last game before the winter break and also guaranteed victory, which allowed Real Madrid fans to have a happy Christmas.

As for the Real Madrid players, they scattered and left immediately after the game.

After all, the national team has also issued a call-up order, and they must report back to the national team.

Suker and Srna also left by plane that day and went to Italy for training.

Why not go to Croatia? There is no other way. It is snowing heavily in Eastern Europe now. The stadiums are covered with snow and the training environment is not good enough.

Originally, they planned to go to Asia for training and organize a few commercial matches, but the Italian Football Association invited them to play some friendly matches during the winter break and cover their training venues, accommodation and other issues. Naturally, they agreed.

After all, with Croatia's current capabilities, they do need a relatively strong opponent to stimulate themselves.

Rome, the capital of Italy, took advantage of Christmas Eve to arrive here.

In order to welcome Christmas, the team also gave the players a day off to let them enjoy the holiday.

Before Suk landed, he was invited away.

In the evening, Suk appeared in a villa in Rome.

As soon as he walked to the door, a voice appeared.

"Hey! The King of Madrid!"

Suk turned his head and saw Inzaghi leaning against his brand new sports car. It was dark, and he was wearing sunglasses and waving at him.

There was a beautiful woman next to him, I had never seen her before, probably she was a new girlfriend,

Suker walked over with a smile, and Inzaghi happily hugged Suker.

"Long time no see!"

Inzaghi patted Suker's shoulder with emotion, and couldn't help saying; "You guy, if you go back to the Milan period, you must force me to hand over the No. 9 jersey!"

Suker: "How can I do that? I still respect you very much!"

"Bullshit!" Inzaghi laughed and scolded; "During the years when you were the core, if I didn't pass the ball, you would stare at me to death!"

Suker: "That's because if you pass the ball to me, I will have a better chance of scoring!"

Inzaghi rolled his eyes, and then patted Suker's back and said; "Go in, everyone is familiar today!"

Following Inzaghi into the villa, I found that everyone inside was old acquaintances.

Milan's meritorious players headed by Maldini.

Retired and active Italian internationals such as Nesta, Ambrosini, Pirlo, Totti, and De Rossi are all here.

These are all old acquaintances of Suker, so they are not particularly unfamiliar.

Suker smiled and said, "Is it appropriate for me, an outsider, to attend an internal Italian gathering?"

"Aren't you Italian?" Nesta smiled and said, "If you hadn't played for the national team in Croatia first, Italy would definitely have snatched you away."

Suker has dual Croatian and Italian citizenship. He joined Italian citizenship to save the foreign aid quota.

As for the national team, it's just a talk, after all, Suker joined the Croatian national team as early as 2006.

The Italian national team didn't say much at the time.

After all, Suker's full outbreak can be traced back to 2007, a year later.

"What are you doing recently?" Suker is still very curious about the retirement life of these old teammates.

"What else can I do?" Nesta shrugged: "I took on some commentary work, and sometimes served as a guest commentator."

Ambrosini: "I joined the Milan youth training."

Before Inzaghi opened his mouth, Suk immediately said: "You are picking up girls. I saw that you just changed your girlfriend."

Hearing this, everyone around couldn't help laughing.

Inzaghi also grinned.

Suk continued to work hard and pointed at Inzaghi's sunglasses and said: "Take it off. There are grown men here. Why are you pretending? There is no one you can pick up!"

Pirlo immediately responded: "It's dark and you can't see clearly. It's just for pretending."

Suk and Pirlo said something to each other, and Inzaghi took off his sunglasses helplessly.

"You two guys"

Once known as the 'Milan ghost', now the skills are still as good as ever.

"I miss Ivan a little bit!" Suk suddenly sighed.

Pirlo nodded; "Me too!"

Gattuso did not attend the party, or rather, he did not rush back to Italy, and at times like this, he is always missed.

Everyone laughed even louder, obviously, they thought of the funny moments in the past.

It was really happy at that time, not only could we win, but we would have a happy tomorrow, and the smile was still on our faces.

Until Suker left, everything began to slowly change.

Today's Milan can no longer see any shadow of the past.

Take out the group photo of the former Milan main players. In addition to Suker and Kaka, Gattuso is struggling in the secondary league.

Ding Ding Ding!

Maldini knocked on the cup with a small spoon to attract everyone's attention.

As soon as they saw that Maldini was about to speak, everyone immediately quieted down.

"Today is an internal gathering. Some of the old friends here haven't seen each other for a long time. It's hard to come back to Italy, so let's reconnect."

Maldini smiled and raised his glass; "Cheers! Cheers to everyone!"

Everyone looked at each other and shouted with laughter: "Cheers to the boss!"

After taking a sip of wine, people began to form small circles to chat.

Suker, Pirlo, and De Rossi, three active players, gathered together.

"I watched your European qualifiers. What happened?" Suker looked at the two and asked.

In this European qualifier, Italy barely entered the play-offs with the second place in the group and successfully broke through.

It's just that the process was a bit difficult.

In the regular season, they were also suppressed by Switzerland. This is not the performance that Italy should have.

In response, Pirlo and De Rossi looked at each other and sighed helplessly: "There is a problem with our counterattack."

"4 wins and 4 draws, the victories were also small-score wins, and the draws were more frequent. It can be said that we are using defense to slow down the game, but once the defense can't hold up, the forward line will be even more useless." De Rossi complained: "That idiot always kicks some inexplicable balls. Obviously, it is a good opportunity, but he always messes it up!"

Su Ke raised his eyebrows: "Balotelli?"

Pirlo was also indignant: "Who else but him!"

Su Ke looked at Pirlo. He knew this guy. He rarely had an enemy relationship with others. The fact that Pirlo could be so straightforward showed that Balotelli really didn't know how to behave.

"What did he do?"

"He did a lot of things! Many of them were suppressed internally and not announced to the outside world. If these were exposed, that guy would be in trouble!"

De Rossi shook his head and said, "This is all for the preparation of the World Cup, but when I think about how we have to rely on this guy to score goals in the World Cup, I feel uneasy."

At this point, he turned his head and looked at Suk: "If you had chosen the national team a little later, it would be great to join us after obtaining Italian citizenship."

Suk grinned and didn't say anything.

He would not join Italy, and he didn't have this idea.

Italy has many problems, and this is not something Suk can decide alone.

And compared to Croatia, Italy is larger in size, and the relationships inside are more complicated. People's hearts are not together, and they can't use their strength together.

"This time, I asked you to come to play a friendly match, just to stimulate the front line, let them see what the world's top offense is, especially to let that idiot who thinks he is every day understand that he is shit!"

De Rossi's tone was very heavy, and it was obvious that he really hated Balotelli.

Suker did not respond to this. After all, it was an internal matter and he did not want to get involved.

"What are you talking about?"

Totti came over with a glass of wine. After retiring, Totti had obviously gained weight.

The former handsome wolf king now had the characteristics of a middle-aged man.

Totti sat directly next to Suker, put his arm around Suker's shoulders, and said with emotion; "Every time I look at this guy, I think of the 2006/2007 season, when Shevchenko was driven away and Milan let you go to challenge the top scorer. I was still thinking that Milan was crazy to let a kid challenge me."

Everyone looked at Totti with a smile, and they all knew what happened next.

Totti shook his head and sighed; "But that season, I tried my best to score goals, but I just couldn't catch up with him."

De Rossi laughed and joked; "At that time, we had a rule internally. In order to let the boss catch up with Suker, all penalties were given. Set-pieces with good positions were also given. All chances to score were given to the boss. In one season, we pulled nearly twice as many penalties as before, but we still couldn't catch up!"

Pirlo turned his head: "I remember that season, you won the Golden Boot without a penalty, right?"

Suker coughed dryly: "There were three penalties! Don't flatter me, that season, I was also annoyed by him chasing me. What kind of person is he! I just can't get rid of him! More than 20 goals in Serie A are enough to win the Golden Boot, but I pulled 30 goals that season, and that was a narrow victory!"

Hahahahahahahaha!!!

Everyone couldn't help laughing.

Looking back now, these are all very interesting things.

"Thinking about it now, although Serie A was a bit lonely in those seasons, it was really good in terms of attack and counterattack. Some media even said that the intensity of Serie A matches was comparable to that of the Premier League." De Rossi said with a smile.

Totti looked at Suker and smiled; "Who is it because of?"

Suker shrugged: "It has nothing to do with me!"

He doesn't want to be the king of rolls!

"But this is not your limit, 50 goals in a single season in La Liga." Totti grinned; "How did you do it?"

Suker waved his hand; "The situation in the division is different. You play in La Liga. As long as you adapt to the tactics, your number of goals can also increase a lot. Every striker from Serie A can score goals."

"After all, those old defenders are dirtier than each other, and the key is that they have special experience in dirtiness. If you suffer a loss, you can't complain!"

De Rossi laughed; "The most difficult to deal with at the time was your Milan defense line."

Pirlo: "Juventus is also difficult to deal with, but they were relegated at the time. Juventus hasn't recovered in the years when Suker was the core!"

"Why do I hear someone talking about me?" Maldini came over, and Suker and others quickly shut up.

Maldini smiled, turned his head towards Suker, and motioned to come over.

Suker also stood up and walked over.

The two came to a corner, and Maldini looked at Suker; "Do you know about Kaka's matter?"

Suker nodded: "You want to bring him back to Milan, I know."

Maldini nodded; "Do you think I did the right thing?"

Suker: "There is no right or wrong, everything depends on Kaka's thoughts. That guy really wants to come back, and he really can't keep up with the pace in Real Madrid."

"Alas~~~" Maldini sighed; "Since the injury, Kaka's condition has indeed declined a lot."

"I can't play like before, I can't rush." ​​Suker shook his head: "But as a midfielder, he is still very good, and going back is also a good choice."

Maldini nodded and looked at Suker and said, "Do you have any idea of ​​coming back?"

Suker smiled and said nothing.

Maldini also grinned, "Milan can't afford the price!"

It's not just a matter of price. Suker's transfer involves too many relationships and interests.

Unless there are huge internal problems or Suker's status drops drastically, it is almost impossible to achieve.

After all, there are many people in Spain who want to firmly lock Suker in La Liga.

The two chatted for a while, and Suker suddenly asked, "Boss, let me ask you a question."

Maldini looked up: "What?"

"What does it feel like to win the World Cup?"

Maldini was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I don't know, I haven't won it either. After all, I had retired from the national team in the year of winning the championship, but I felt the atmosphere in the locker room. It's really great. You should experience it."

Suker looked up and smiled, "I think so too!"
