Chapter 30: Materazzi's Summer
Marco. Materazzi was born in Lecce, Sicily, Italy. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
It was in a hotel chain in Lecce, on the island of Sicily, that he was found.
But......
Materazzi wasn't even playing.
Materazzi works as a waiter at the hotel.
His hair was cut short, his pale beard protruding from his chin, and his rugby-like face, with four white teeth leaking out, smiled at the guests who were still a young man in his youth.
Sicily in Italy may be beautiful, and the city of Lecce in Sicily is bustling. But Marco. The sky of Materazzi was gloomy, and there was a smile on the face of Materazzi who ushered in the send-off, but there was not much smile in his eyes.
……
As a child, since the death of Materazzi's mother, little Marco, his childhood began a sad life.
Marco. Materazzi's father, Giuseppe. Materazzi was a football coach at the time. However, from the beginning of his coaching career, he has not been able to stay at a club for more than two years, except for the Bari team he played for himself. But even in the Bari team, even the head and tail are added together, Giuseppe's youth coaching career is only in the early three years.
At this time, little Marco lost his mother. Materazzi could only follow his father Giuseppe. Materazzi was running around, full and hungry, helpless.
……
Giuseppe. Materazzi finally got married for the second time.
Giuseppe counted on the beautiful girl to take care of the family, especially little Marco, who followed him around.
With a stepmother, maybe little Marco will end this dilemma of life with a meal and no meal.
The wishes are wonderful.
The beautiful girl brings Marco a lively and cute half-brother.
Little Marco's life is finally regular.
……
Little Marco started to be a big brother, but his stomach was always hungry, so he had to use the little brother's milk powder to satisfy his hunger, and as a result, of course, he had to be beaten. Otherwise, little Marco will not have a long memory, and he will definitely fill his stomach with his little brother's milk powder next time.
Little Marco wants to go out with his little brother and play with his little brother.
The joy of friends playing together. The little brother, who had no one to hold or hold, crawled and crawled on the side, accidentally broke his hand and stuffed dirty things in his mouth.
As a result, a moment of happiness was exchanged for a beating.
The little brother's clothes are in new clothes, and someone has washed them when they are dirty. Little Marco had to wear shabby and dirty clothes, hiding and playing around, dirty, they were old clothes, it didn't matter.
……
Giuseppe is unemployed again and has to go out and find another job, but he can only play football and have no other life skills.
The beautiful girl also has to go out to work, and she has to find money to make up for her living expenses, otherwise where will the milk powder for the little brother come from?
The little brother is still too ignorant, and he actually pulls shit and urine in his pants.
The beautiful girl was tired from working outside, Giuseppe was looking for work outside and sometimes couldn't come back, and little Marco had to wash his little brother's clothes.
Winter is coming, and the water is still frozen. Break the ice, do the laundry.
……
One day, his school buddy was bullied by other big kids. He looked for Marco, it's a piece of brioche bread, you help me beat him, it's yours.
Marco has a blue nose and swollen face, and no one knows.
Marco's clothes were torn, and he had to starve.
When other people's parents come to the door, they have to be beaten.
Playing and fighting......
Giuseppe found that Marco could resist, and that he had to learn like a beautiful girl, using tools like brooms and sticks.
Gradually, gradually......
None of the friends in the school dared to fight him, and the brioche bread was gone.
At this time, Giuseppe finally found a job at a club in Sicily.
……
Giuseppe suddenly realized that he hadn't seen Marco in a few days.
Marco isn't home now, he's got food again. Playing with everyone during the day, there is food to eat when you lose, and there are lira when you win, 100,000 face value, Marco has never owned.
Giuseppe finally finds Marco playing football in a playground pitch.
Giuseppe saw Marco, who was already very tall, and had the idea of taking him to the club's academy to learn football.
……
Marco went, there was food to eat, but no lira.
The youth players found that Marco was playing football, kicking people, hand-to-hand combat.
The parent ran to the club to complain that his child was kicked by a teammate in the team.
Giuseppe intercedes......
Another parent ran to the club to complain that his child was injured by a teammate in the team.
Giuseppe intercedes......
However, both father and son were dismissed.
Giuseppe took Marco to another club.
It's business as usual.
Giuseppe interceded, and they were both dismissed again.
Giuseppe took Marco to another club.
No, the club can only accept Giuseppe alone.
Marco began to gallop on the playground in Sicily again.
……
The professional club of Messina invited Giuseppe to coach the first team, and this time Giuseppe had more power.
Marco was finally able to play professionally in the first team.
Yellow.
Yellow cards, two, it's time to go down.
Red card, go straight down.
Giuseppe didn't dare to let him play.
A year later, the team did not get good results and Giuseppe was fired.
Giuseppe. It was time to get back to work, but the club couldn't do anything to disagree with Marco coming to the club, not even in the youth team.
At this time, Marco also had a record of playing in the professional arena.
……
A semi-professional amateur team was formed in a hotel in Sicily to compete in the Italian amateur league.
Marco also had a successful trial.
Yellow.
Yellow.
Two yellow cards, it's time to go down.
Red card, go straight down.
Yellow.
Two yellow cards, it's time to go down.
Red card, go straight down.
In the second year of the team, I didn't take him to play. The hotel manager only let him be a waiter in the hotel and did not let him play football.
……
Marco was galloping on the playground again, but now the 100,000 lira was gone.
Because the team on the playground, as long as he is on which team, this team can generally win.
Marco. Materazzi was on the pitch, not only defending ferociously, but he was also able to rush up front to score. Occasionally he kicks a beautiful free-kick and that's a defender with a knife.
So the playground team is no longer willing to invite him to the competition.
Previously, as soon as Materazzi participated, the opponent's team directly admitted defeat, lost money and left.
Later, when the teams in the playground invited each other to play, the first thing they said was, "You have Materazzi on your team." If so, I'm sorry, we don't play with you anymore.
……
"Marco, do you still want to play?"
Materazzi was stunned, this young tenant, still a foreigner, actually knew his name and knew that he could play football.
Who is he?
Is he also poor?
No, the person who lives in the business suite of the hotel will have no money, and no one will believe it.
But I put down the gift box......
This guest is talking to himself, why?
That's definitely not wanting to tip.
This kid must be a miser!
……
"Yes, as long as there is a lira."
"Marko, would you like to play abroad?"
"Yes, as long as there is a lira."
"Marko, you came to our club, and it is estimated that you can only participate in the youth team training competition in the first two years?"
"It doesn't matter, as long as there is a lira."
"Is it better to give you pounds, not lira?"
"Well, the pound is better! The US dollar is fine, and the Chinese yuan is also fine! ”
Materazzi was irritable for a while, and roared angrily in his heart, and said that he didn't want to tip, don't pretend to ask, and said that I can play football in England.
You miser, or a fool, don't even pretend to be like, isn't the pound money? That's a curse! However, the quality of the hotel staff, the tone is not good, but there is no swearing.
This Materazzi is not a fool!
The second didn't think it was funny, he was plagued by the small plane again, how could Materazzi be a fool?
"Marko, you're really Marko. Materazzi? Aren't you afraid that I'll sell you? ”
Materazzi looked at the second with disdain, compared his figure, and then snorted in his nose and said, "Cut, just your body......"
When the second heard this, this Materazzi looked down on his own force and said, "Marko, pay attention! ”
As soon as he reached out, his front feet stretched out, and his shoulders hit, Materazzi landed on his ass and fell on the carpet.
"Wow-woo, this is Chinese kung fu!" Materazzi scrambled to his feet and exclaimed excitedly.
"Hehe, how?"
"Look you're rich too. Traffickers, the mafia is not like you? ”
"Hehe, Marco, you're really Marko. Materazzi, if you want to go to England, then sign a player agreement first. ”
"Isn't it! Are you a scout? Which football club are you from? ”
"I'm the owner of Oxford United, the original Oxford United football team, you know?"
"I don't know, you're the boss of Niu Hanlian? Did you get deceived to ask me to play football? ”
"You don't know how to play football? Didn't you say that your father was also a football coach? ”
"I know how to play football, but you, a club owner, ran from England to Italy, and you find an amateur player to play football, who can believe it?"
"Okay, then we have to sign a contract, do you need to ask your family to agree?" II opened his suitcase and pulled out the player's contract.
Materazzi looked at it, the above content was filled in, a salary of 40,000 pounds a year, playing in the first team, the contract salary was changed to 150,000 pounds, and the contract was signed for ten years.
After reading it, Materazzi almost smashed the contract in the face of II, who are you fooling? When I was a fool, a young player gave £40,000.
However, Materazzi still held back, there was a chapter on it, red, and very attractive.
"No, I'll be twenty years old soon, and I can call the shots. Are you really the owner of the British Cow Han United Club? ”
"Hey, how do you want me to prove it?"
"Okay, let's sign the contract."
……
In the box of the hotel dining room, Materazzi, eat all the dishes, wait for the arrival of the next dish, and do not drink. I sometimes choke on vegetables and drink the juice in large gulps.
II couldn't help but remind Marco to eat slowly, no one grabbed him.
Materazzi grinned and said nothing, and he happily killed seven plates of steak and five plates of macaroni.
Materazzi finally drank the last sip of juice, looked at the empty plate on the table, Materazzi stroked his stomach with satisfaction, and lowered his head a little embarrassed.
The second didn't speak, just called the waiter to pay the bill, and then the two went out together.
Materazzi suddenly turned around, entered the box again, picked up the half bottle of juice that had been placed on the second side, and screwed the lid on. Then he held it in his hand, turned around and went out again, stepping on the footprints of the second and striding along the corridor of the hotel.
……
Actually, in Marco. In Materazzi's youth, Italy already had a fine tradition of disc action and takeaway. (To be continued.) )
