Chapter Eighty-Nine: Keep Moving Forward
Ronaldo's sudden olive branch was just a small episode for Yan Feng. Turn his head and he'll forget.
I don't know how, though. After the game, there was news circulating on the Internet that Ronaldo admired the two of them and hoped that they would go to Real Madrid next season.
Yan Feng didn't care about this. And, the reality is also, soon the rumors about him in this news disappeared.
It's about Lin Fan's likely going to Real Madrid next season, but it's been hyped on the Internet. Fortunately, it is still far from the transfer period, otherwise Yan Feng really has to worry about whether Lin Fan will be abducted by Ronaldo.
Since it was still early, Yan Feng didn't care much. But this matter did not pass away, but spread farther and farther, and even the amount of annual salary and transfer fee that had been agreed on came out.
After all, this kind of thing is just a rumor, although some of it really happened, but Yan Feng believes that after a long time, it will disappear soon. However, he found out next that Lin Fan seemed to be really affected by this incident. There are words that reveal that he is willing to go to Real Madrid.
Regarding Lin Fan's intention to go to Real Madrid, Yan Feng didn't know what to say. Although Lin Fan is his good brother, he also wants Lin Fan to have a better development. But at the same time, he hoped that Lin Fan could create brilliance with him.
Yan Feng couldn't make it clear that he didn't want Lin Fan to go to Real Madrid, so he could only persuade Lin Fan not to think too much, and the most important thing was to play the current game.
After persuasion, although Lin Fan said that he would always fight side by side with his good brother, Yan Feng saw Lin Fan's desire to go to a super wealthy family.
It's hard to continue to say anything. Yan Feng began to worry about whether he would be affected by Lin Fan's state because of this. even affected Lin Fan's run-in with the team.
Fortunately, Yan Feng was worried about all this. Lin Fan was not adversely affected by this in the following days. It's that the state is still good, and the enthusiasm is still there. Both in training and in competitions, they performed very well.
In particular, at the Copa del Rey a few days later, Lin Fan once again shined.
Originally, for the Copa del Rey, the Granada team chose to give up strategically. However, thanks to Lin Fan's outstanding performance, he was unexpectedly promoted.
And this time, the Granada team has a new opponent. This time, their opponents are no longer teams from La Liga, but Real Betis from La Liga.
For this round of the Copa del Rey match, the Granada team is still giving up. The depth of their personnel bench is really not able to withstand a three-line battle. Therefore, this time the Granada team is still dominated by substitutes.
And Lin Fan is still the starter of this one. Although Lin Fan has started to be reused in the league, Pirlo still feels he needs more workout. And Lin is not like other main forces, he needs to rest to recover his physical strength.
Granada gave up the Copa del Rey, but Real Betis did not. Real Betis are currently 18th in the league and have no relegation worries and no possibility of going to the next level. The biggest pursuit is to go further and achieve better results in the Copa del Rey. Therefore, for this match, Real Betis are aiming for a win.
The Real Betis team, which has invested almost all of its main forces, is really fierce in its home stadium. He had a big advantage on the field.
However, the substitutes of the Granada team, under the leadership of Lin Fan, did not coerce. They were very tenacious and unexpectedly blocked the attack of the Real Betis team. And until the end of the game, they did not collapse under the home team's attack. In the end, the game was dragged into a draw.
Real Betis' home game was unexpectedly drawn by a group of substitutes. This was a surprise to the Granada team, and they were particularly happy about it.
The excellent performance of the substitutes gave Pirlo a glimpse of a stronger future for the Granada team. The main players are good, the substitutes are also at a good level, and that's what a strong team should look like.
After the Granada team made Lin Fan's first appearance, everything got better and better. The morale of the military is also increasing.
Back in the league, Granada are still strong.
In the thirtieth round of La Liga, they won again when they challenged Deportivo La Coruna away.
In this match against Deportivo La Coruna, Granada won cleanly. Beat the home team 3-0.
In this game, Lin Fan once again performed amazingly. He has a great record of shooting and passing. And the goal was scored by him again from a free kick.
He has scored free kicks in the game many times, and Lin Fan's free kick ability has been widely recognized since then. For this, he began to earn the title of "The Little Prince of Free Kicks".
The little brother performed so well, and Yan Feng, who was the captain and elder brother, also performed well. In this game, he scored a long-range shot.
A goal, which was a really good performance. It's just that the limelight was all stolen by Lin Fan. Sometimes, Yan Feng always feels depressed. Every time the two of them are on the same team, the biggest limelight is always given to Lin Fan. Lin Fan may be the protagonist arranged by God, but he is just a supporting role.
And Lin Fan's excellence did not end there.
Next, Granada hosted Real Betis. In this second leg of the Copa del Rey, the Real Betis team gave it all and did their best. In the end, he was killed by Lin Fan with a corner kick with a high spin.
Now it's unexpected again. Granada actually relied on a bunch of substitutes to eliminate their opponents in the Copa del Rey. It was definitely another huge surprise. Especially for Granadans.
And Lin Fan, who helped the team win, became a man of the hour.
Corner kicks, this kind of goal every time it happens, is extremely eye-catching. Relying on this goal alone, Lin Fan has been in the news of major European media again.
Lin Fan is really in the limelight now. During that time, he became one of the most impressive and outstanding young players.
Lin Fan has become a rising star.
This is a great joy for the Granada team, and it is also a great joy for Chinese football.
Whether it is in Europe or in China, Lin Fan's recent scenery has definitely overshadowed everyone. Even Yan Feng, who had been called King Yan in China before, quietly became a supporting role.
Looking, the major media have reported on Lin Fan. Yan Feng reluctantly admitted that Lin Fan was a natural star. In addition to a hint of jealousy, Yan Feng was more happy.
He's happy to have such a good brother, he's happy to have such teammates, and he's happy that Granada can aim higher and that they're moving forward.
