"Garrincha is a good name, you have to cherish it."

Just this sentence, Lei Yi, who was taught by his family and refused to obey the discipline, and many times made the head coach want to beat him hard, his eyes were red and he almost cried.

But Bailey didn't laugh at Lei Yi's crying nose, but beckoned to him and said, "Good boy, come over and let me take a good look at you." ”

As Ray Wing walked over to Bailey's bedside, Bailey said, "I watched your game. You scared the hell out of me, kid. Your back with the ball is almost exactly the same as his. It's just that you're still a kid, and you're much shorter than him. ”

Even though Bailey didn't say "his" name, Ray Wing certainly knew. The old man in front of him was talking about Garrincha. Manuel Francisco dos Santos.

Listening to the familiar and unfamiliar voice, as well as the person described by the other party, Lei Yi couldn't hold back his crying anymore. But Bailey's voice didn't stop.

'You have to play well and cherish your talent. Don't drink, don't go to nightclubs, listen to the instructor. ”

Birdie Garrincha, who has a terrible talent that no one has succeeded and cannot replicate, but unfortunately he is addicted to alcohol every night, he drinks all night and returns to the court after dawn to contribute to victory after victory.

"A woman doesn't have to look for a lot, as long as she is not with you because of your status and money. Find someone who loves you and will take good care of you. ”

In Garrincha's short life, he had many women. Moreover, he had staged a peachy scandal that ruined him in Brazil because of his woman. But no one has succeeded in stopping his indulgences, no one has tamed his rebelliousness.

"Don't be fooled by clubs and advertisers."

Garrincha made a lot of money for the club that owned him, but he himself never lived a rich life because he couldn't read the contract and never asked anyone to read it. Moreover...... He didn't seem to care about that at all. Even he has always been very casual with cash stuffed in various corners of his home, and he doesn't remember how much wealth he has.

It seems that every word of the old man in front of him can make this stubborn boy burst into tears. Thunder Wing stood at the head of Bailey's bed and cried for a long time. Bailey, on the other hand, did not make fun of him or interrupt him. There was just a kind and soft gaze at this boy who had only met for the first time today, and he felt very affectionate.

When Lei Yi realized how much of a situation he had and how humiliating he was today, he finally barely stopped crying, and frowned with red eyes, looking at Bailey with a very small adult. And Bailey, who was now very thin, smiled back at him. That smile was nothing like what he did on the pitch when he was in his twenties. But each one comes from the same soul.

"I've got a gift for you, little one." As he spoke, he motioned for Lei Yi to look at the rectangular box on the windowsill.

"I ...... May I? ”

In front of Bailey at this moment, Lei Yi seemed so cautious, even humble, but with a closeness. The old man smiled and nodded at him, and said, "You can open it, right here." ”

So Lei Yi held the rectangular box that was very light, but the weight in his heart was very precipitated, walked to Bailey's bedside, and sat down on the side of Bailey's bed very carefully at Bailey's signal, and opened the box. Lying in that rectangular box was a ...... with Garrincha's name on it. Botafogo's number 11 shirt in the sixties.

"I'm really sick to seeing you in a Sao Paulo shirt, kid. This jersey was worn by Garrincha when he was still playing. At that time I was playing for Santos and Garrincha was at Botafogo. We swapped shirts after a game. I've always kept this jersey. Now, it's yours. ”

After saying that, Bailey continued, "I hope you don't think I'm offended, kid. After all, you are now a player for Sao Paulo. ”

What is unexpected is that Lei Yi actually took off the Sao Paulo jersey on his upper body after picking up the jersey that Garrincha had wore, and directly put on the black and white striped jersey with a five-pointed star on his chest.

When Lei Yi wore a Sao Paulo jersey with a white background and black, white and red stripes on his chest, he showed a kind of youthful vigor and brightness. And when he put on the black and white striped Botafogo jersey, it showed a kind of calm, and revealed a hint of sharpness in it.

Ray looked at Pele, smiled, and put the black Botafogo pair on the outside.

Fortunately, Lei Yi is much shorter than Garrincha at that time, so there is no problem in wearing it in this way.

When Thunder Wing looked at Bailey with an expectant look of praise, the old man nodded approvingly and complimented, "It's suitable." It's just that you look thinner. ”

Lei Yi, who had not yet dried the tears on his face, laughed stupidly, and then ...... He asked very seriously: "I heard that when you went bankrupt, you learned the news that Garrincha was already destitute. And then...... You gathered a friend who played football with you and played a charity match for him. And, give him all the income? ”

"Yes."

…………

About an hour later, Ray Wing left Pele's house, and he was escorted to the door by the same person his teammate Dominguez had mentioned, Bailey's youngest grandson, York.

Although Bailey was black, his two wives and daughter-in-law were white. Until his grandchildren, his youngest grandson, York, seemed to be close to the white race, but it was full of a kind of Latin American dynamism. York Book and Thunder Wing exchanged contact details and seemed to want to say something to him.

However, what Bailey said to him was always in Thunderwing's mind, preventing him from thinking about anything else.

Thinking of the bits and pieces he had spent with that person, Lei Yi's footsteps became faster and faster. And Bailey's words that seemed to be admonishing and admonishing were turning faster in his mind than his steps. No matter how much he ran in the wind, he couldn't shake it off.

The tears that had been stopped poured out again at this time, saying nothing and not listening to his command. That even made him unable to see the road ahead.

I won't!!

I wouldn't go to a nightclub! Addiction to alcohol!!

Lei Yi shouted in his heart. He even tried so hard to suppress his desire to scream.

I know I'm not as talented as Garrincha! Garrincha is a true genius! He was supposed to be the king of the ball!!

Aside from a pair of long and short legs, I can't compare to him!!

So, I won't let myself fall in the same place that once made Garrincha ruined!!

…………

In the 13th round of the Brazilian First Division, Sao Paulo played away against Cruzeiro.

In the 14th round of the Brazilian First Division, Sao Paulo hosted Vasco da Gama.

In the 15th round of the Brazilian First Division, Sao Paulo visited Gremio.

In the 16th round of the Brazilian First Division, Sao Paulo hosted Atletico Mineiro.

In the 17th round of the Brazilian First Division, Sao Paulo played Fluminense away.

In all five games, Thunder came off the bench in the second half and scored two goals and provided two assists. Almost every time Lei Yi appears, he can directly or indirectly change the direction of the wind on the field. He may have become the most talked-about demon player in the Brazilian league for more than a month.

It probably won't take long for everyone to know that Garrincha is back in the Brazilian Serie A! He can also play with his feet on opposing players. He can also use his legs of different lengths to bring the most beautiful footwork performance to everyone.

And until then, he may have an even more significant battle to fight.

In the Asian qualifiers for the 2038 World Cup, the Chinese team has been mired in the top 10 matches in the Asian region. They only finished third in their group. According to the rules of the World Cup qualifiers, the top two teams from the two groups can directly qualify for the World Cup in the top 10 of Asia.

The third-placed teams will then play a two-legged home and away tie, with the winner going on to compete for a precious World Cup spot with the fifth-placed South American zone.

Now, there is only such a narrow road to overcome thorns and thorns in front of the Chinese team.

However, anyone who knows a little about football will know that in the competition with teams from other continents to qualify for the tournament, only in 98 years did Iran snatch the precious World Cup place in the round of 32 from Australia, which was not yet incorporated into the Asian region.

That is, at the time of the life-and-death battle between China and Uzbekistan in the play-offs, Lei Yi, who was only 16 years old and should have only participated in the U17 game, was called up by Andric, the coach of the Chinese team. But even so, fans still don't know anything about the unfamiliar name "Thunder Wing".

In fact, the South American tournament has always been recognized as good-looking, but there's no denying that it's really an underdog.

Most of the time, you won't even find the English commentary version of the South American race. In the huge Chinese-speaking market, there was only one pay TV station that did not cover the whole country and bought the broadcast rights of some South American events. And, with the increasing development of network communication, the living space of pay TV has been continuously squeezed, and finally even that TV station has stopped renewing the copyright of South American events.

This has created a lag in information for the South American league.

A lot of times, it's only after a player from that league has gone to play in Europe's top five leagues or even for a big club that you know what terrible results he has achieved in South American football.

As a result, it was only a few weeks after Thunderwings made his football debut that such a demon was discovered. It's a pity that they can't understand the commentary in a small language that is extremely fast. Nor can they tell which country in Asia this unbelievably young player is from. And the name written on Thunderwing's jersey is even more misleading.

Apparently the name "Garrincha" makes one think that he may be nothing more than an Asian player who was born and raised in Brazil and has Brazilian nationality.

In addition, Lei Yi seems to have no interest in anything other than playing football. He doesn't have his own social network accounts of Twitter, Facebook, and Weibo. So, of course, the Chinese people have one less channel to discover him.

This situation continued until the eve of the Asian play-off match between China and Uzbekistan......
