Chapter 244
Wherever there are Brazilians, there is joy. It doesn’t matter who the venue is, what kind of barbecue they eat, whether there are beautiful women present, they can always control the audience, or let the audience happy with them, whoever cares about them Which giants to play for, will you fight to the death tomorrow?
As long as they have fun at the moment, tomorrow's game is tomorrow's business.
Because of this, everyone had a great time, but on the second day, Ronaldo, who is a Brazilian, was not happy.The reason is simple, the game started at 8 o'clock in the evening, but he couldn't play-he still hasn't recovered from his injury.
The UEFA Champions League is the stage that every top player yearns for. Ronaldo, who has played in the UEFA Cup for two consecutive years, is no exception. He is eager for this stage, but what can he do? His body does not allow him to play on the green field run.
His two agents, Martins and Peeta, arranged a job for him, which was actually discussed with the club, and it was still the program "Football Weekend" on Italian national television.Recently, the ratings of this program once again crushed its opponents, becoming the ratings champion among similar football programs.
All of this is of course thanks to Raphael, and it was in this episode that a series of news about him was triggered.
Actually for some reason Ronaldo didn't want to be on the same show, but his agent convinced him, "If this is the case you have to go to the stands, think about it, Ronnie, he's playing football, you're going to be in the stands Applaud his performance, do you really want to do that?"
Ronaldo actually doesn't like his agent and his team's unreserved hostility towards Rafael in front of him, but he can also understand, because they are not only teammates, but also the most direct competitors.
In terms of personal honor, he has won the World Footballer of the Year twice and a Golden Globe Award, and he is undoubtedly in the lead.At the national team level, he had the World Cup in 94-although he didn't play for a minute; there was the Copa America in 1. In that painful summer for him, he also reached the final with Brazil.
But Ronaldo also knows better than anyone that Rafael is 4 years younger than him.Well, in fact, he knows that age is not a problem, the root problem is that he has more and more frequent injuries...
He has gradually realized that if Rafael can stay healthy, it may be difficult for him to compete with him in terms of personal honor in the future.The more he realized this, the sadder he felt.
Regarding Raphael, he actually has a secret, and this secret is actually related to his father.
He once received a CD. The man in the CD looked about 40 or [-] years old. Although part of his face was covered, the way he demonstrated the dribbling method to warn him of the danger of pendulum was very similar to Raphael.
It can even be said to be exactly the same!
Every player actually has some small habits when playing football, but how many people can use his signature move "Pendulum Extraordinary"?Not to mention mastering the essence of it-the sense of rhythm.
But this can’t be Raphael, he was in La Liga with Raphael at the time, of course he knew that Raphael was much thinner than now, he was like a slender and beautiful boy in the myth, it was in that narcissistic god , what's the name... Anyway, it can't be the person in the DVD.
So who is that man?Why did he record a video specifically to "preach" him?He thought about it for a while, and after he couldn't think of an answer, he simply let himself forget about it. Why did he give up his way of playing football because of the words of the guy who hid his head?
This is my football!
This is my everything!
Time passed like this, even if he and Raphael became teammates, he could observe him more closely.But he was still not that person, because Rafael was still thinner than him.But who knew that Rafael suddenly had a father in the past few days!A super cool dad!
Ronaldo didn't want to say anything about envy. He used to envy Rafael for having a beautiful sister at most, but he never envied his parents.Although his parents chose to divorce after he became famous and each found a lover, they didn't abandon him when he was a child and let him fend for himself. That's why he loved his parents and could tolerate everything about them.
But Rafael's father is also blond, and his body looks so similar to the guy in the DVD, so the question is, can Rafael's father play football?Wouldn't it be cool if he could!I don't know that he is a mysterious agent who can lead a mysterious and brave army. He can play the guitar and sing, and he can even play football!Is there anyone more perfect in this world?
If there's...well, maybe it's Raphael.
Although he never told anyone about it, Ronaldo actually envied his achievements outside football.He knows that many teammates in the team ask Rafael for advice on how to manage money, including Bergomi, a guy who is about to retire, but Ronaldo doesn't want to be one of them, and he doesn't even want to become close enough friends with Rafael—if If there is a day, it will be the day he retires.
This way he can let go of everything, such as those competitive spirits.
And if that person is Raphael's father, the question arises again—why did he do this?Is it because you admire him, or are there other reasons?
This kind of pondering obviously can't figure out the result. As a very pure Brazilian, Ronaldo feels that it is better to forget it than to make things difficult for himself.Maybe one day he'll ask Raphael or his dad on a suitable occasion, but not now.
So the time came to the evening, Ronaldo was wearing a suit and simple makeup and became the special guest of "Football Weekend" this week.The host of the show is still Stafia, and his partner is a beautiful woman. He really wants to look more seductive, but if his girlfriend Suzanne sees it in front of the TV...he decides to seriously participate in the show.
"Ronnie, you have teammates on both sides. You should be one of the people who know the two teams best, but you can only watch from the sidelines. How do you feel?"
This question actually made Ronaldo very upset, but he is also a peaceful person, and he can only spread his hands, "I would like to be one of the 22 people on the field, but the team doctor does not allow it, and he does not issue permission for me to play. I cannot participate in it." It makes me feel sorry, but considering that I am here today to judge them and give pointers, maybe it is also a gain."
"Are you worried about being outraged?" Stafia asked with a smile.
"No," Ronaldo said, "I can speak, but it doesn't mean I can't control my own mouth, they will never beat me for this, let alone I am the same as thousands of fans in front of the TV today." Support Inter Milan."
At this moment, the director's prompt also sounded in the headphones worn by Stafia, and the camera was cut to the scene.
At this moment, players from both sides have entered the player channel, that is, the still iconic white mobile ceiling.Bergomi did not start today, and was replaced by the combination of Stam and Cannavaro.The captain's armband was naturally worn on Raphael's left arm. He didn't look sideways, and he didn't glance at Redondo when he passed by. Instead, Simeone patted Redondo on the shoulder.
Raphael finally stood at the forefront of the team, this is his accusation as the captain of the field, of course——
"Rafa likes to be the first out of the tunnel, right? You always let him out in the second half," said Stafia.
"There is no doubt. There are always some mysterious little hobbies in the dressing room. Rafa has no other hobbies. Compared with many people, his habit is hardly superstitious, but he likes to be the first to go out." Ronaldo said. .
Stafia smiled and said, "Then have you ever thought about competing with him? Try to go out earlier than him, and see what he will do?"
Ronaldo felt that this guy was simply watching the excitement and it was not a big deal!How could he not think about going out first with Raphael?
"No, I won't." Ronaldo emphasized, "I respect his little habit. The first few appearances will not affect my performance. If it makes Rafa happy, why not do it? We are a group, We'll win titles together, too."
Raphael in the camera was already shaking hands with the referee, and at this moment he turned around and swept across all his teammates.
Ronaldo may not be too familiar with Rafael's eyes, but seeing his blue-gray eyes close-up in the TV camera is very different. He has to admit that the eyes of this guy look sharper and more beautiful in the camera. There is a sense of shock.At the moment, Sanchez Jr., who was standing side by side with him, also seemed to have the majesty and aura of the captain, but Rafael's aura was not lost to the Madrid people.
"Are you laughing?"
Ronaldo realized that he was laughing, and he didn't avoid the question, "I just thought it would be interesting to look at Rafa like this, but I also guarantee that his eyes just now are warning everyone-in fact, I'm curious about what happened in the locker room What."
"You think something funny happened?"
"Obviously, I suspect that Andrea (Pirlo) is a prank. He is very courageous now. He stole his chocolate last time and changed it to a special chocolate for pranks."
"Have you been beaten?" Stafia seemed to be unable to hold back her laughter.
"No," Ronaldo laughed, "Rafa is not angry, but Juan is angry, and he will double-check any food given to Rafa. Any bearded uncle (Belgomi's nickname) will stand up and punish him for a week. Snacks in the locker room. Whether it was biscuits or pizza or chocolate, but he was on the bench that week, so there was no penalty."
Now that the players have entered the field, Stafia did not chat with Ronaldo any more, but began to take charge of the work together with his partner. Ronaldo is a guest, so he does not need to answer questions frequently, he only needs to express his views on the situation on the field .
When the two players shook hands, the camera followed Rafael standing in the front row. Ronaldo had to admit that he was a little bit jealous-this guy's face.
Although he doesn't lack the pursuit of beautiful women, but looking at this guy's face and thinking about the number of fans he has on Network, it's no wonder he doesn't envy him.He also assured that there are not many people in football who do not envy this guy.
Raphael walked up to Redondo, facing Redondo's outstretched right hand, Raphael leaned over and gave Redondo a hug, then said something, and was slapped on the back of the head by Redondo ——This movement is extremely skillful. Obviously, the Argentine midfielder does not do this less often, but he does not know who the unlucky ghost was beaten.
When the players on both sides stood up and the Champions League theme song played, something happened to Raphael. The little boy in front of him didn't stand properly, but looked up at him and said something to him.Raphael didn't answer immediately, but watched the child touch his head, and then straightened his little head with both hands.But less than a second after he put his hand down, the brat looked up at him again!
They watched Raphael straighten his little head again in a good temper, and this time he didn't let go of his hand.
Stafia wanted to gossip with Ronaldo at this moment, but he couldn't, because he was still reporting the starting rosters of both sides.
"Hiddink still adopted the 442 lineup today. The goalkeeper is still the German goalkeeper Ilgner. The left back is Robert Carlos, who we are all familiar with. Because of the injury, Hierro is sitting on the bench today. Sanchis is paired with another Fernando - Fernando Sanz, Spanish centre-back. Campo is at right-back. Savio, Jaime, Redondo and Seedorf in midfield, Raúl up front and Mijatovic."
"Looking at Inter Milan again, the lineup sent by the old Robson today is 4231. The goalkeeper is still our national goalkeeper Pagliuca. The Dutch central defender Stam and Cannavaro, who returned from injury in time, partnered again. The left back is Seale. Sweet, Zanetti at the right back. Winter is the double midfielder with Simeone, Rafael, Pirlo and Figo are in the midfield, and Vieri is at the front."
"Both teams have been plagued by injuries to varying degrees. It is still unknown whether Real Madrid's defense can withstand the pressure of Inter Milan today. Inter Milan has a serious problem on the front line, except for our special guests today. , Zamorano and Morillo are both suffering from injuries to varying degrees, if they can advance to the knockout round, the third-tier monster schedule will continue for the two teams."
At this moment, the camera showed Rafael again. He was going to exchange team flags with Sanchez Jr., but he was held back by the caddy. Obviously the little guy didn’t want to be separated from him, and Rafael squatted down to meet him. He looked at him and said something to him.
In order not to delay the game, the staff rushed into the arena. Raphael simply picked up the little guy who was shaking his head vigorously, sent him to the staff's arms like that, and waved goodbye to him. Little Sanchez and the referee team watching this scene.
Rafael handed the team flag to Sanchez, and the Real Madrid captain joked: "Is your jersey mine today?"
Raphael smiled, this was obviously a continuation of the previous game, he embraced him with open arms, and promised: "For the sake of whether you can take away 3 points."
"Arrogant brat!"
"Send your comfort in advance."
