Chapter 003: I Won't Say Sleep
Zhuo Yang's last game before leaving AC Milan was the Super Cup, and his first game at Barcelona was also the Super Cup.
Barcelona, like most of the top five league teams, regrouped on 20 July, immediately after the team kicked off England for a Wembley Cup friendly. Zhuo Yang had not yet been decided, and Ibrahimovic's transfer was also in dispute with Inter Milan, and only Maxwell went to England with the team.
After that, the team went to the United States, where they played three warm-up games against the LA Galaxy, the Seattle SuperSonics, and Guadalajara. During his stay in the United States, Barcelona completed the transfer of Ibrahimovic and also completed the third purchase this summer, Brazil's 21-year-old striker Kyrison Carneiro who is known as the 'new lone wolf' transferred to Barcelona for 14 million, and the old lone wolf is the man named Romario.
However, the ambitious Callison spent only five days at Gamble City before being loaned to Benfica and never returned, let alone mention.
Coupled with the subsequent Zhuo Yang, this is all the new signings of Barcelona so far in the summer. In terms of leaving, in addition to Eto'o's high-priced addition, Da Hleb and Cáceres were loaned out at a low price, and Victor Sanchez, Silvinho, Holkelera, Enrique Adriano and Gudjohnson were given away for free.
After returning from the United States, Barcelona ushered in the Spanish Super Cup. Because it was last season's double, Barcelona's opponent was also Athletic Bilbao, the runner-up of the Copa del Rey who came on as a substitute. But unlike other major league rules, the Spanish Super Cup is played over two legs in a home-and-away format.
Ibrahimovic broke his wrist in the last friendly match between Inter Milan and Chelsea in the United States, and Inter Milan only sprained it, but after the transfer, Barcelona's medical examination found that it was a fracture of the second metacarpal bone in the left palm. Sweden's Shenfeng injury was not good, Zhuo Yang did not come, coffee did not enter the starting list, Max and Iniesta suffered minor injuries in training, Messi's body was a little awkward, and Barcelona went to the first leg of the away game with a remnant.
Just before the end of the first half, Bilbao winger de Marquez kicked a long-range shot into Puyol's leg and deflected it into the net.
It wasn't until the 67th minute of the second half that the 22-year-old equalised with his first goal of a competitive senior match, and the first leg was 1-1.
In the new season, young players such as Pedro, Busquets, and Bojan will get more opportunities, including Jonathan, Fontas, Munesa, Hefren and other second-team youngsters have also registered in the first team, and La Masia has always been Barcelona's confidence.
Returning to Barcelona with a draw, the team's total value increased by 100 million, and Zhuo Yang came.
The day after the family photo shoot, Barcelona played another warm-up game, and in the 'Gamble Cup' held at Camp Nou, the team welcomed Manchester City, the largest local tycoon in Europe.
This summer's transfer window has been the most dramatic in football history, with Barcelona, Real Madrid, Manchester City and Bayern Munich being recognised as the four biggest teams in the media. Although in terms of amount, Manchester City is not as big as Barcelona and Real Madrid, but don't forget, they also did the same in the winter window half a year ago. In the past 12 months, Manchester City have spent $300 million on recruitment, a net outlay.
Spending money has to be heard, and at least City have been given the club's first-ever chance to play at Camp Nou, the first time the two teams have ever met. A total of 22 Barcelona players were on the pitch during the game, and the only people who did not play were goalkeeper Valdés, Zhuo Yang and Miilito, and the 34-year-old second goalkeeper Jose Pinto was the only player who was not replaced.
This is also the first time that Barcelona has met their fans at home in the new season, and the Camp Nou was full, and the three new signings of Zhuo Yang, Ibrahimovic and Coffee appeared together.
Because Zhuo Yang has not participated in the team's joint training, and his body has been rusted a little after a holiday, Gua Shuai asked his opinion, Zhuo Yang said: I'll take a look first. With such a big horn, the first time he fights, he must be full of light, and today's messy play is boring.
Before the game, Zhuo Yang didn't even change his clothes, holding his No. 18 jersey in his hand and waving to 90,000 fans, and picked up the microphone to greet the new fans in fluent Spanish. After three years of living without shame with the Milan Brazilian Gang, Zhuo Yang's Spanish is no longer the time when he couldn't understand Maradona's roar in the Great Barrier Reef that year, and there is no problem with normal communication.
Language is very important, and many Chinese players who stay abroad have suffered a lot in this regard, and they can't communicate with their teammates to the fullest, let alone integrate. On the other hand, although English is the lingua franca today, it is naturally advantageous to be able to grasp the language of the country in which you live. Not so for Ibrahimovic, who didn't have time to speak Spanish, and when he and Guardiola communicated more in Italian, they both stuttered a little in English.
Zhuo Yang can now communicate in English, German, Italian, French, Spanish and Portuguese without barriers, plus Mandarin, Shaanxi and Sichuan, and back more than 100 years ago, he was able to scold the Eight-Nation Alliance alone. Therefore, Zhuo Yang felt that he was very awesome.
However, while the Spanish media is touting and praising him, there are also some slight remarks.
Nowadays, the football world has begun to have the saying of 'children's dream' and 'children's dream', and Coffee Maxwell said when facing the media: Joining Barcelona is my childhood dream. This is the heart of coffee, and it is also a fact. Even Ibrahimovic said: "Joining Barcelona is something that every player wants to do and I'm very happy to be here.
Barcelona's mouthpiece media "World Sports" tried to induce Zhuo Yang to also say his 'Ersa dream', but Zhuo Yang said: Barcelona is a great team, with the same long history and football heritage as AC Milan. There are a lot of young and very good players here, which reminds me of Madiburg. I love the city of Barcelona and it has a lot in common with my hometown of Xi'an.
I won't talk about children's dreams, because Lao Tzu's biggest dream when he was a child was to sell Bell Tower milk cakes when he grew up, and eat them while selling.
Kaka and Ronaldo didn't say anything about their dreams in Madrid, and they didn't have a little arrogance to drive the clouds, and they couldn't become the four kings.
Former Atletico Madrid striker and Bulgarian Martin Petrov scored the only goal of the game in the 27th minute of the first half. Messi and Ibrahimovic came on in the second half, replacing Pedro and Bojan, who each hit the crossbar once.
This was Barcelona's first defeat since the start of the training camp, but no one cared, not even the discerning Barcelona fans, it was obviously a game of large-scale selection of second-team players.
Four days after this game, Barcelona ushered in the second leg of the Spanish Super Cup, and Zhuo Yang, who practiced together for four days, will also wear the red and blue No. 18 jersey for the first time.
