football's most handsome

"Welcome everyone to the Riazor Stadium to watch the second round of the King's Cup quarter-final match between La Coruna and Real Madrid!" Frank took a deep breath and continued, "Today La Coruña is also a variety of players. Unexpectedly, the schedule has come to this point, although Real Madrid has no possibility in the Champions League, but this also allows them to at least put a lot of energy in the King's Cup and the Champions League!"

"Yes, this should be a good thing." Dean nodded, "Since the party that night, La Coruña has been quiet, as if nothing happened, but we know it must be What happened, didn't it?"

"Of course, Postiga was the first to drive away and was photographed, and he was drunk driving, and the speed almost reached 100... There are bruises on the corner of his mouth, something must have happened. The traffic police in La Coruña issued a ticket, but fortunately no Hit someone, or he will be detained directly."

"After everyone left one after another, Quaresma was the last to leave, and he was wearing a shirt that was different from when he entered the door..."

The two looked at each other, as if they both saw the blazing fire of gossip in each other's eyes.

But Dean is more rational, he coughed lightly: "Let's be more rational, the list of matches hasn't been reported yet."

"You're right, let's be sensible... Oh! Postiga is on Deportivo's starting list today!! Are all our guesses wrong?!"

Dean was shocked and immediately took Deportivo's starting list, and his professionalism required him to immediately pronounce the name subconsciously: "Deportivo's starting list...Diego Lopez; defender Pablo Ibáñez, Jorge Valente, Nuno Maniche, Thiago Silva; David Silva, Pablo Aimar, Juan Riquelme, Fernando Gago; Herder Postiga, Diego Forlan."

After looking at it smoothly, Dean also fell silent.

"Deportivo is giving up the Copa del Rey?"

Players from the two teams were ready to shake hands on the field. Frank looked up at the situation on the field and quickly pushed Dean: "Where is the Real Madrid list!"

"Oh yes..." Dean was still studying Deportivo's roster and almost forgot about Real Madrid. He glanced down and said quickly: "The starting roster for Real Madrid—Iker Casillas; Salga Do, Samuel, Woodgate, Arbeloa; Gravesen, Beckham, Guti; Ronaldo, Raul, Figo..."

The two were silent for a while and sighed at the same time.

"Although most of the bench lineups are on both sides, the depth of the bench between Deportivo and Real Madrid is still different..."

"This is the point?" Dean glanced at his partner with an unreasonable look, "Don't you find it strange why both Deportivo and Real Madrid are on the bench?!"

Although it is true that the substitutes on both sides are not on the same level, this does not change the fact that both of them are basically on the bench.

"I know, so Deportivo and Real Madrid want to give up the game at the same time?" Frank blinked. "Or did Real Madrid just want to consume their energy at the beginning?"

"I don't know..." Dean didn't dare to say a word now, for fear that he would say something wrong. After all, the number of times he was slapped in the face by Juan this season is really countless. Now, as a professional The commentator who explained the Deportivo game, he didn't dare to say anything more.

Juan was standing on the edge of the court at this time, his expressionless face looked a little cold.

He himself was not a kind-hearted person, and now his face was even more frozen, and the two looked at each other in silence for a while.

... Juan, what's the matter?

Juan has nothing, he is just looking at the people on the court, especially paying attention to his own number 12.

Edel Postiga.

Seeing him, Juan thought of the night three days ago.

After he finished those words, the atmosphere fell directly into the ice cold.

This is an iron-clad fact. Everyone knows that Postiga is indeed the most sneaky person when he usually behaves, but they didn't expect that Juan would say it directly in front of most people.

Postiga sneered: "So, so what? You're just a head coach, what's the big deal?"

This sentence added a touch of unreasonable trouble out of thin air, and Juan laughed: "Are you playing big cards, or am I playing big cards? Elder, you have to think clearly. I am 13 days younger than you. In this club, Lunia, I don't have the qualifications to play big cards with you!"

Juan’s few words are the truth. In Deportivo, it’s really not up to Postiga to talk about his qualifications. He can take advantage of Juan’s compatriot status at most. They used to be in the national team together. Time to fight side by side, that's all.

And to be honest, learning from masters like Redondo, Romario, and Juan Belleron is a dream opportunity for many players, but every time he comes to training, he hides far away, always The look of being absent-minded.

Originally, Redondo and Romario hated people who disrespected football and their elders, so they were even more honest with him, so Postiga couldn't learn anything. This is a huge vicious cycle.

Postiga stopped talking, Juan sighed, and said softly: "Do you want to transfer?"

When this sentence was asked, most people were shocked, and then all eyes turned directly to Postiga's direction. He took a deep breath and raised his head.

"Yes."

Juan knew that this matter was no exception at all. After all, the two of them had the same agent. Postiga might not know it. Even if he didn't make a fuss tonight, Juan would start him.

Because Jorge Mendes called him before and asked him to give Postiga more playing time.

"Postiga is very dissatisfied with his life in Deportivo and wants to transfer, so for the benefit of your Deportivo and the benefit of our two companies, you should let him play more! "

To be honest, Juan was not at all surprised that Postiga was dissatisfied with life in La Coruña.

He himself is a lazy person, he doesn't like to be disciplined, and he doesn't like to pass the ball to the extreme on the court-although this habit has been broken back by Juan with great difficulty, it is not of much use .

Because not passing the ball is just one of Postiga's many shortcomings.

Although he has many advantages, if he doesn't get rid of his laziness, Postiga's future will not be successful.

Although Romario is lazy, he has paranoid seriousness and obsessive-compulsive disorder in dealing with games and football. For Juan, this is actually enough.

As long as you are dedicated on the court, no matter what happens off the court, there is no problem.

——However, Postiga didn't even take the least action to be worthy of his salary.

Regarding Postiga's insistence, Juan was silent for a while, then nodded: "I understand, I will try my best to arrange your playing time in the next time."

Postiga was stunned: "Even if you are like this, I want to transfer..."

"I'm not going to use this method to keep you here." Juan interrupted him, and said calmly: "I just hope that you will perform well in the next time, and from today I will be stricter in terms of training and diet You, I hope you can cooperate, perform well, and then sell it for a good price during the transfer period, so at least it is a win-win situation for the club and you personally."

Postiga stared at him with wide eyes, with an unbelievable look, and everyone around him looked like he had seen a ghost. Juan raised his eyebrows and looked at everyone, and then looked at the messy table: " I guess you guys are not in the mood to eat, so that’s it for today, I’m looking forward to the party after the season.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the door was slammed shut. Juan withdrew his gaze and looked around: "What?"

David Louis swallowed his saliva and said tremblingly, "It's Postiga...he's gone."

"Oh," Juan nodded, "Then everyone should go back, take a day off tomorrow, and resume training the day after tomorrow. Ricardo, stay here for a while, take a shower and change clothes before leaving."

"Oh..." Quaresma was a little dazed, but he still nodded and went to take a shower under Juan's instructions. Romario walked slowly and fell behind. The Brazilian looked at Juan and then at Ray. Dongdo sighed.

"Juan, Juan, I really believe that the media said that your EQ is low..."

"??" Juan blinked, a little dazed, "What did I do wrong again?"

"You didn't do anything wrong, but..." Romario wanted to sigh even more, "Postiga is acting like a baby to you, didn't you notice?"

"?????"

Juan was immediately at a loss, what's going on?

What does it mean to act like a baby at him?

Was it a coquettish atmosphere just now? !

Redondo obviously saw it too, so he stayed behind all the time. Now that he noticed Juan's expression, he couldn't help it anymore, and he also sighed.

"Juan, from now on, you should be a little softer. Don't speak so bluntly. It will hurt people."

He has said such hurtful words before, and he also knows that he may not feel much after these words are spoken out, but it will definitely cause deep harm to that person.

It's as vile as a person holding his hot and beating heart in front of another person, and that person still dislikes the smell of blood and throws it away at will or even stomps on it.

Fortunately, the person I know is still waiting for him persistently, and he can still recover the scarred heart.

But the situation on Juan's side is different, it's really different, Juan seems to be because he is still very young and there are many elders in the team, he doesn't realize how many young people he is in support of the soul. Being told this now, Postiga must be very sad.

...Although it is said that everything is his own fault, other people will feel a little chilled when they hear it, right?

Juan also knew that this was not good for him, so he was silent for a while, took a deep breath: "I will go to him to apologize."

After all, although there is a difference between players and coaches, they actually have a closer identity——

They are still friends.

"Don't go." Redondo stopped him directly, "Although what you said is not very pleasant, but those are facts, so you don't need to explain anything, he will understand you in the future."

Of course, Redondo still didn't say the second half of the sentence.

If you can't understand it, then the future may be a relationship of enemies for life, and you will never communicate with each other until death.

Romario naturally knew what Redondo's unfinished words were, he remained silent without saying anything, and then sighed softly.

Although it is already commonplace for him to socialize, it seems a bit too early for Juan.

Juan also just kept silent, didn't say anything, he couldn't figure it out, if this was considered coquettish, then Postiga's coquettish was a bit too vicious...

But when he played today, he still faced everyone with his usual attitude. After all, work is work, and personal is private. Postiga didn't say anything, just lowered his eyes quietly.

The field fell into a very fierce battle at the beginning. Deportivo knew that Real Madrid had a classic opening 5 minutes, commonly known as "pit goalkeeper time". Most teams will aim at these 5 minutes, and the chances of scoring will be greatly improved, and Deportivo is no exception.

At the beginning of the game, Deportivo and Real Madrid began to fight fiercely in the midfield. The ownership of football has always been a fan. Deportivo did not make more aggressive interceptions today, and so did Real Madrid, so both sides The game has a weird smell that I don't know how to say.

Dean finally couldn't help it anymore, and said: "To be honest, from the perspective of the lineup, the substitutes on both sides are still star-studded on Real Madrid's side... But what I have to say is that Figo is not young anymore, and Real Madrid's central defender It can be said that the flaws in the midfielder position and the midfielder position are well known to everyone in La Liga. Real Madrid's flaws in these two positions are really hard to see directly. When almost all teams face Real Madrid, they aim at To play in these two positions, basically as long as the ability is sufficient, it is a one-on-one match."

"I also think...Florentino doesn't know what to think. He basically ignores these two positions. In the past two years, he was forced to buy Gravesen, Pablo Garcia, Wood Gate, Samuel... However, the performance of these few people is not very good, not as good as Deportivo's Maniche and Valente."

Dean didn't mean to look down on Maniche and Valente when he said this, it's just that these two Portuguese defenders and defensive midfielders played much less time than the above four players, but the data was justified, Maniche and Valente Contributed more in interception than the aforementioned four.

Although everyone knows that Real Madrid has a big gift package for the goalkeeper, but today's gift package is so big, Deportivo did not expect it at all. After several fierce presses back and forth, Deportivo quickly took the initiative on the field Right, and quickly suppressed Real Madrid through the back and forth passing and scheduling of the midfield, and the attack came in an instant!

In the 3rd minute of the opening, Riquelme cut off Gravesen's pass in the midfield and then distributed it to David Silva. David Silva took the ball from the front of the penalty area and then distributed it to the left. After receiving the ball directly (,), Diego Forlan suddenly kicked and shot from fourteen yards from the goal!

The shot was quick and urgent, and Casillas made a wonderful save almost entirely by subconscious reaction. He jumped sideways, and then blocked the ball out of the baseline with one hand!

Casillas is very used to this kind of warm-up before the start of the game, but the habit does not mean that he will not be angry about it. After getting up, he yelled loudly - there is no way, the stadium is too noisy, He can only use this method to send a message to his teammates who have already run away.

"Pay attention to defense!!"

Since 03, Real Madrid's defense has always been a headache for him. Although in recent years he has been using various divine saves to turn the tide and save Real Madrid from the abyss, but even so, Real Madrid's Conceded goals are still as many as stars in the sky.

It is no longer something to be proud of that defense depends entirely on the goalkeeper. To be more serious, this is a shame for Real Madrid!

Although it was a pity that the goal was not scored, the fans in the stands still cheered happily after a bit of regret.

The home team was so active at the beginning, it seems that tonight is another wonderful night with climax (.) climax (.)! !

Juan stood on the sidelines and applauded, the expression on his face finally relaxed a little.

Of course he knows Real Madrid. He is even more familiar with Real Madrid than he is with the Deportivo team that he personally formed. When you don't care about the defense at all.

The structure of the entire Real Madrid team is deformed, so even if Luxenberg has a way, he can only arrange such a formation.

In this game, Real Madrid did not play 4-3-3 as everyone imagined. Luxenberg was ingenious and made Raul, Figo, Beckham, Guti, and Gravesen form the midfield. Ronaldo served as a single arrow— —I have to say that, in fact, this is also partly inspired by Deportivo's formation, but Luxenberg will never admit it.

Raul is a killer in front of the goal, but this season, in order to make way for the people in front, he is gradually shifting to the midfielder, and sometimes even plays a cameo position as a defender and participates in various defenses. Juan is fast I was stunned, and I called to ask if it was because he was bullied at the Bernabeu, Raul just laughed.

"Guti can play anywhere to stay at Real Madrid, and so can I."

Since then, Juan no longer thinks about dealing with the pair of idiots from Real Madrid. He just talks to his Igor and communicates with him.

However, even if Raul made concessions, it would not help. Real Madrid still has a big problem.

When Raul retreated, Ronaldo, a single arrow, lacked a person who could cover him. His condition was not very good, so he had nothing to say when he was directly blocked.

And Beckham?He needs space to pass the ball. If he is not given space, the long pass of the golden right foot will be blocked.

And Real Madrid's biggest flaw in this game?

It's their lower back position.

Gravesen is the midfielder for Real Madrid today. By the way, I would like to emphasize again that the shot just now was done by stealing Gravesen.

Allen came up and asked their little coach with some uncertainty: "Juan, I read that right, Luxenberg is imitating us, using the midfielder as the core of the whole game?"

"Yeah." Juan finally couldn't help it, took a deep breath to stop his smile, "He plays a great role in Real Madrid's lineup."

It is indeed very big. Luxenberg has high hopes for him. He is not only the barrier in front of the defense, but also responsible for passing the ball to the frontcourt. Although he used to be such a role at Everton, but Everton's teammates can Compared with Real Madrid teammates?

What's more, although Everton is a small team, he can get enough trust and support, and his teammates can execute 100% of his command, but what about Real Madrid?

In Real Madrid's entire superstar lineup, he is like an inconspicuous dust, and he is also the most inconspicuous one on the court. When I first came to Real Madrid, I could even forget his name halfway through the commentary. He said that he had received enough cold reception at Real Madrid.

However, just when he was used to such a cold reception, Luxenberg directly promoted him as the core of the team, responsible for the connection between Real Madrid's midfield and backcourt, and he panicked.

It can be said that he was under a lot of pressure in Real Madrid during this period. He is the least famous one on the court, but he has to bear such a burden that does not match his reputation. If he does well, it is his job. The sinner of the entire team, the first one to be scolded after the game, made him feel even more depressed.

But after all, he has been in Real Madrid for such a long time, and he is not stupid, so he continues to play very dedicatedly during the game, even if he has to go through some psychological construction every time he plays.

What's more terrible is that Deportivo seems to have seen his external strength and guilty conscience. There are more and more presses against him, and Gravesen has an illusion for a while.

Has he turned into Redondo, and the opponent wants to defend him so desperately? !

Gravesen couldn't tell, but Samuel and Woodgate weren't much better either.

The two sides of Deportivo are Riquelme and Gago. The running and defensive abilities of these two people are very good. I can see a little bit of the embryonic form of future growth.

Under the pressure of their two sides, it became very difficult for Gravesen to pass the football to the frontcourt.

And after the two of them began to advance frequently, Deportivo had only two midfielders left, which was a disadvantage compared with Real Madrid's five midfielders. However, at the beginning, Juan arranged Nuno Maniche and Jorge Valente went to the midfield to press. These two Portuguese are very good at the midfield press. Juan rarely puts them on the field because of Deportivo. Ya's midfield defense is generally relatively solid, and he doesn't need to play on the field to press...

And Real Madrid, apart from Guti and Beckham, Raul, Figo, Gravesen, who is a midfielder?

Nobody.

It is difficult for them to adapt to a new position at once, especially when the position is so foreign to them.

Therefore, Real Madrid, which seemed to have a larger number of midfielders, was gradually suppressed by Deportivo.

After suppressing the opponent's midfielder, Deportivo's offense will naturally become smoother!

Finally, Gravesen successfully passed the ball to the front and gave it to Beckham. Gago saw that the heartthrob who was holding the ball was not fast, and he couldn't make a breakthrough. He went straight up and knocked him down. .

Although he knows that Beckham is notoriously tough, and different from his handsome face, Beckham can also be said to be a master at playing cards. When he was at Manchester United, he was not soft on all kinds of cards. , sometimes even Keane is afraid of him when he becomes ruthless.

Originally, the Englishman planned to keep a low profile after arriving in Real Madrid, but it turned out that one should not be too low-key. Now a young man dares to come over and shovel him!

Gago got up and ran away quickly. This is what Juan emphasized before the game. In addition to pressing Gravesen, Deportivo's focus is on Beckham and Guti. There is no small threat on the pitch.

Real Madrid got a free kick. Beckham stood at the penalty spot and took the free kick. However, there were crowds of people in the penalty area. As far as the eye could see, they were all Deportivo players. There were only a few Real Madrid jerseys. Loitering outside.

Beckham sighed inwardly.

The ball flew into the penalty area and everyone started to jump, Jorge Valente managed a header before Woodgate.

"Now the total score between Real Madrid and Deportivo is 2:3. These five goals were all produced in the first round. Since the second round, both teams have maintained a state of zero goals."

"We can see that Deportivo's press is very fierce. Although Real Madrid's midfield has Guti with a tricky pass, Beckham with a golden right foot, captain Raul, and the devil's right wing Figo, but in the midfield fight , These people are really too weak."

It is very weak, because Guti himself is thin, he basically has the upper hand in physical confrontation; although Beckham is dedicated and fierce, his speed is too slow, and he can be thrown away by a little faster. What is frightening to fans is his professionalism and his terrifying physical strength that he can't run on the court; although Raul is good at physical confrontation, he has only just come to this position after all, and it is normal to be unaccustomed to various conditions; Although Ge is fine in all aspects, he is a bit old.

If it is nothing to say that the midfielder is suppressed, then Real Madrid will really have some headaches next.

In the middle of the press, Gravesen and Maniche got entangled.

The Danish midfielder Gravesen is known as a "mad dog". This bald head-it is worth mentioning that Real Madrid has many bald heads. At a glance, one can only distinguish who is who by height--he has a strong body and outstanding running ability. Passing and dribbling skills are excellent, but the problem is that his temper is not very easy to control.

Maniche himself is an expert in small tricks, and he still has some experience in harassing the enemy. Therefore, when the football rolls out of the sideline, there are two people rolling out at the same time...

Gravesen and Maniche wrestled together, and it was obvious that Gravesen was the first to make the move. At that time, Maniche had his back turned to him, and was pushed out unsuspectingly, and then Fists rained down.

The harsh whistle sounded, and at the moment of the whistle, Juan had already rushed over, and Alan followed closely behind. Juan took the time to glance at him and took a deep breath: "Alan, go and talk to the fourth official , if it wasn't for the red card and the penalty kick, Deportivo would directly strike and appeal!"

"it is good!"

This is already too bad, this is not a reasonable fight on the court, this is a fight!

The players of Deportivo ran fast, as did the players of Real Madrid, especially Raul. As the captain, he had to take a look at the situation, even if he knew that the fault was on his own side...

Gravesen was still covering his face and gasping for breath when he was pulled away. The pressure on him in Real Madrid these days is really too great. He has changed from a marginal figure to the absolute core of the behemoth of Real Madrid. To be honest Yes, no matter how good your mental quality is, it is of no use.

As a result, Maniche hit the muzzle of the gun (.) today, and he couldn't help it for a while and started to use violence. Even if he calmed down now, he still felt palpitations.

Riazor did not have as much oppression as the Bernabeu, and the boos from the small stadium of more than 3 people were not as heroic as the Bernabeu, but when he looked up, he saw Real Madrid's captain and vice-captain——Lao When I met Er and Guti, my heart was cold.

He didn't know how he was going to get back.

These two people were talking to the referee, but the referee just shook his head, then resolutely took out a red card, held it up high, and signaled to the fourth official directly.

Red card and penalty kick!

Juan just ran to the side of Maniche at this time, he didn't even look at the desperate Gravesen, but squatted beside Maniche, frowning: "How is it?"

Maniche covered his face, saw Juan through the cracks in his fingers, and said in a low voice, "It hurts a bit from him beating someone."

"Where is it hurt?" Juan asked again.

Maniche blinked: "Am I the kind of person who will hurt myself?"

Only then did Juan feel relieved, rubbed his head and stood up, glanced at Real Madrid coldly, Raul also saw his expression, although there was nothing on his face, he wanted to smile bitterly in his heart.

——To be honest, Real Madrid and Deportivo have played so many games. Basically, the players on both sides will have a little concern. The game is a game, not against people. After all, there are acquaintances on both sides, so it can be regarded as saving face.

However, Gravesen's fight today can be regarded as annoyed by Juan. Deportivo is not so easy to bully. When the No. If they tear their skins apart, they have nothing to do.

However, Juan didn't say anything, he just stayed by Maniche's side. In fact, he was considered a violation, after all, he left the command area, but the situation was special. The referee said a few words to him, and Juan nodded and turned to Go back, after all, the players of Deportivo have gathered now, the two teams are currently facing each other, and nothing will happen if the referee is on the scene.

"Juan!"

He turned around and found that the person who stopped him was Raul. He just took the opportunity to take a look at the situation over there. Gravesen had already stood up. Guti narrowed his blue eyes and said something, Juan He also knew how poisonous Guti's mouth was, so he withdrew his eyes after taking a look, and turned to stare at Raul in front of him.

"what's up?"

"..." Raul opened his mouth, feeling speechless for the first time.

Although he is very eloquent, he has long been used to fighting with his friends, falling in love and killing each other—he, Guti, and Puyol all grew up in the same generation. He has been playing non-stop since the beginning, and has been playing in the first team, even if he changed from Atletico Madrid to Real Madrid in the middle of the game.

But Juan is different.

Juan is also a friend, but at the same time he is not a friend who was hostile at the beginning. It can be said that Raul has watched Juan grow up to where he is today. I know everything in my heart.

Now that the two teams are fighting, it is impossible for him to say, "Juan, you have to forgive Gravesen, he is now a player of Real Madrid"... Isn't this just robber thinking?

Raul was a little hesitant, and Juan knew what he was thinking right now, so he paused, and Juan sighed, beckoning people to come to him—Raul was standing on the sideline, and the people other than the players were Entry to the sidelines is not permitted.

Raul came over, Juan hugged him directly, rubbed his head, Raul was stunned for a while, but subconsciously hugged him tightly.

"Do you know why you can't grow taller?"

"..." Raul was stunned again, and looked up at Juan.

…Speaking of it, I don’t know if it’s a crime. At the age of 18, Raul already had a height of 180. Just when everyone excitedly thought that he would continue to grow taller and go straight to 190, he was 28 years old. , Raul Gonzalez, whose height is still 180cm...

The 1.8-meter-eight Juan looked down at him with a bright and friendly smile on his face.

"It's because you think too much and always think wildly."
