Reborn on Top of Football - Vol 8 Chapter 76

A few days later, the sixth round of the UEFA Champions League group stage came. The opponent was Malmö, who had already been eliminated, and Real Madrid, which had five games, four wins and one tie, had already qualified with Paris, so this was a meaningless game. But Benitez still dispatched the full main lineup. In addition to Wang Ai’s initiative to ask for a substitute, Benzema, Yin Ke, Ronaldo, Ronaldo…

Naturally, there would not be any suspense in the outcome of such a game. Not only did Malmö play a bunch of substitutes, but he didn’t do any pressing at all. Real Madrid’s first goal was Cristiano Ronaldo assisting Benzema, and in the process of Cristiano Ronaldo’s bottom, the Malmö defender actually defended two meters away from him, which is too outrageous.

On the bench, Wang Ai tried his best to keep his expression down, because he knew that there were cameras peeping at him all the time, but he was extremely disapproving in his heart. Benitez wasting the energy of his players in such a meaningless game in order to save himself will only make the club’s evaluation of him even lower. Because his approach is a child’s trick to the club’s top management, except for ordinary fans.

In this game, Ronaldo’s big four and Benzema’s hat-trick are all considered to give Benitez face. Wang Ai took this opportunity to casually say to Ronaldo when they walked out of the locker room together after the game: “Come to my house for dinner when you have time. .”

Ronaldo nodded casually: “Okay, I will take Georgina with me.”

Benitez’s arrangement of wasting his main force for self-rescue, the evil results appeared in the league a few days later. Facing the excellent offensive and defensive yellow submarine Real Madrid, it was difficult to adapt. They were forced by their opponents in the opening game and lost a game. After the ball, he became very impatient, and offsides and strong hits abound.

If Wang Ai hadn’t stood up calmly at the critical moment and scored a goal in the second half, the club’s evaluation of Benitez would have been even lower. They didn’t know that Wang Ai took the initiative to ask for a substitute in the last game, thinking that It was Benitez who kept it for himself.

The “Aspen” published the next day commented: You can always trust the attack power of the Chinese.

“It’s a coincidence to say that Cheryshev was loaned to Villarreal last season to make that happen.” Wang Ai, who was reading the newspaper while having lunch, shook his head: “There are two days to go with Jia. In the second game of the Copa del Rey, the decision of the Spanish Football Association should come out, right?”

“I see that Real Madrid is struggling and has no strength. Maybe it’s recognition?”

“It’s hard to be outraged by the public. This matter is clearly wrong, and it is really irreparable. Except for the nonsense that the Real Madrid press officer said a few days ago, no one responded, right?”

“Has the team made a tactical plan for the next game?”

“No, I didn’t see it anyway. Generally speaking, this kind of double match a week will not have a holiday on Monday unless it is confirmed that it will not be played in the middle of the week, but now you see? I am on vacation today.”

[In other words, currently the best app for reading and listening to books, install the latest version. 】

In the afternoon of the next day, the Spanish Football Association held a press conference to announce the penalty for Real Madrid’s illegal employment in the last Copa del Rey: the results of the previous game will be retained, and the next game will not be played, and Real Madrid will be directly sentenced to a 0:3 loss.

This means that Real Madrid will eventually be squeezed out of the Copa del Rey journey in the new season. This is of course very unwilling for Real Madrid, which has introduced Wang Ai and included two super giants, and the players are also very unwilling. After all The Copa del Rey also pays more money for one more round, and the team bonuses are also distributed for those who score goals. A total of La Liga teams can play in the Copa del Rey, the League and the Champions League, and this time they were cut off by one-third.

And if it was a normal game, no one would say anything, at most they would complain indiscriminately, but this time it was an unwarranted disaster, because the coach did not do the work that was supposed to be done, which ultimately affected everyone’s income. So after the verdict came out, Wang Ai felt the restlessness within the team very clearly: Those who love honor will blame Benitez for discrediting Real Madrid, let alone those who love money.

Although Benitez has made a lot of friendly moves in the past week, it is too late. The high-cold attitude that has lasted for several months since he came to Real Madrid in the summer has alienated the distance between him and the players. His kindness and kindness can’t change everyone’s inertial understanding at all.

The locker room began to blatantly spread Benitez’s jokes. The big stars no longer fully cooperated in training, and even some small stars were no longer afraid of the unspoken rule of “no objection to the coach”, which became ambiguous. In this regard, Benitez turned a blind eye, and even put away his modest attitude of the last week.

Wang Ai didn’t know whether Benitez couldn’t take care of him, or felt that kindness and kindness were useless, or whether he planned to keep the face of a head coach before leaving. Anyway, no matter how he and the club are, Wang Ai stays out of it. He never participates in the discussion about Benitez in the locker room and training ground. Anyway, he is close to a transparent person in the locker room.

Unexpectedly, he got a whole week of rest time, but Wang Ai was a little surprised. On Wednesday, he still arrived at the training center at 1 o’clock in the afternoon. After the examination by the team doctor, he patted Wang Ai on the shoulder and told him to do what he should do. His body is stronger than a donkey!

The training this week has not been very normal. People often arrive late and leave early at the time stipulated by Benitez, or simply don’t come. Wang Ai doesn’t know if today’s training will be on time, so after swimming in the indoor swimming pool for more than half an hour Put on clothes and slip to the youth team.

Different from the two hours of training for the adult team every day, the training time for the youth team is much more. On the one hand, it is because their game intensity is incomparable with that of the adult team. On the other hand, young players still have a lot to learn and improve themselves. The heart is also strong, business affairs, family affairs are nothing, so the training field on the senior team side is empty, and there are always people coming and going on the youth team side.

“Hi, Wang!” A young player waved enthusiastically at Wang Ai: “Will you play against us today?”

“It depends on whether your coach agrees.” Wang Ai spread his hands with a smile: “He didn’t give me the appearance fee, and he still disliked me.”

“That’s because you are too capable. When you play, everyone will inevitably focus on you, but you are not our player. The training game is centered on you. What should we do in the official game?” Real Madrid Castilla coach Appeared next to Wang Ai with a smile: “This is why the first team and the second team should be distinguished. It is more conducive for people with similar abilities to play together to give full play to their overall advantages.”

“That is to say, Castile doesn’t need me anymore?” Wang Ai smiled and stretched out his hand to him.

A pair of lightweight sneakers, a pair of jeans, and a casual suit, Zidane with a shiny forehead also reached out: “If you are willing to do a technical demonstration or give lessons to my forwards, I still need it.”
