072. How far is it from Valdebebas to Chamartin

Marca's headline coverage of Odegaard's arrival was accompanied by an article in an obscure section.

This report is mainly about Chu Ge.

The title of the article was, "How far is it from Valdebebas to Chamartin?" ”

At the beginning of this report, it did not start with Chu Ge, but a famous Real Madrid flag player.

Raul Gonzares.

"On October 27, 1994, 17-year-old Raul González Blanco received a phone call at the slightly outdated Chamartín training base. The call came from the Argentine, Jorge Baldano, who was the manager of Real Madrid at the time. On the phone, Baldano said, 'After I tell you the news, calm down.' I'm going to take you to Zaragoza, you're going to start and you're going to play the full 90 minutes. ’”

In Zaragoza, Raul's debut was like a car accident.

He didn't do well.

However, Baldano continued to reuse him in the second match.

Just half a season later, Barcelona's Cruyff was exclaiming, "Where did [Real Madrid] come out of this gold medal scorer".

Seventeen-year-old Raul, it was from that phone call that he began his future legendary path.

The name Chamartin may be unfamiliar to some Real Madrid fans.

Before Real Madrid's new Real Madrid Sports City, Chamartín was the training base of the La Liga giant.

From the first team, to Castia, to the large and small echelons, hundreds of people were crammed into that small and outdated Chamartín training base.

Raul was training at Chamartin at the time.

And the team he played for at that time was Castia, where Chu Ge is today.

Today, Real Madrid's training base has moved to Valdebebas.

But their home stadium, the Bernabeu Stadium, is still Chamartin.

Since Raul, Valdebebasri has continued to train a lot of good players.

However, these excellent players are often not reused by Real Madrid clubs.

After Raul, the road from Valdebebas to Chamartín is a road that countless Real Madrid academy players have not completed in their lifetimes.

After introducing Chu Ge in this article, he gave Chu Ge a high evaluation, believing that he is another Real Madrid youth training pearl produced by Valdebebas.

However, the reporter also wrote helplessly.

"The distance between Chu and Raul is the distance between Ancelotti and Valdano, the distance between Florentino and Mendoza, and the distance between Valdebebas and Chamartine."

"The club would rather buy Odegaard from outside at a high price than trust the talent of its academy."

"That's probably the situation for Real Madrid's academy players."

There is no doubt that this article is calling on Real Madrid to pay attention to its own youth training and its own academy players.

Chu Ge is just an introduction.

It was only after seeing his outstanding performance that the reporter came up with the idea and wrote this article.

What he means is not to simply say that Real Madrid should promote Chu Ge, he just hopes that the club can give these academy players more trust and more opportunities to perform.

Articles like this are eighty a year, if not a hundred.

Obviously, Real Madrid are busy welcoming Odegaard and their talent for the next ten or even twenty years, and they don't have time to pay attention to any journalists' articles.

At La Fabrica, Chu Ge and his teammates continue to train day in and day out.

Chu Ge still practices every day.

In addition to the normal training, he will show up at the gym on time every morning, afternoon and evening.

In Castia, Chu Ge already has the title of a fitness maniac.

If you follow the habits of Chinese netizens, his current name can even be changed, Chu is not working out for a day and uncomfortable for a day.

Driven by him, Enzo and Marajol often go to fitness with him.

However, these guys are only three minutes hot.

It didn't take long for Chu Ge to be the only one left in the gym.

In addition to training.

At the beginning, Chu Ge and his teammates were still looking forward to Odegaard coming to Castia.

They wanted to get to know the superstar of their age up close.

But as the days passed, Odegaard reported to the first team every day.

He preferred to train with the first team and not play games and never came to Castia.

Moreover, in the supplementary registration for the Champions League knockout round, Real Madrid Club added Odegaard's name.

This is a treatment that Chu Ge has not received.

Gradually, the players of Castilla knew that the Norwegian was very angry.

They speculate that Odegaard dislikes Castile's low level and is unwilling to train with them and participate in the second division B.

So be it.

Since people look down on you, you don't have to wait for him every day.

In January, the league continues.

January 3rd.

Round 19 of the league.

Castilla plays Toledo at home.

In this game, Chu Ge appeared in the forward position.

He didn't score, but he was the biggest headache for the opposition defenders. In order to defend against Chu Ge, Toledo paid the price of five yellow cards and one red card.

In the end, Castilla swept the team with a score of 4:1.

Meanwhile, Huesca, who are at the top of the league table, are drawn away from home to Athletic Bilbao B.

In doing so, their league points were tied by Castilla.

With a slightly better goal difference than Castilla, Huesca remains at the top of the league table.

However, Castilla already sees hope of reaching the top of the league.

January 10th.

Round 20 of the league.

Castilla faces Atletico Madrid B at home.

It's a city derby.

Although it is not a confrontation of the first team, the Matadors' local derby has never lacked the passion of the battle and the attention of the media.

In this game, Real Madrid and Atletico Madrid's official websites, Marca, and As, all sent reporters to wait in the stands to watch the game.

In the game, the young people of both teams also played passionately.

In the first half, a Real Madrid defender made too much of a defensive move in the box and was whistled for a penalty.

Atletico's Nacho Monsalve converted the penalty.

Away from home, Atletico Madrid took the lead.

The Atletico players were so excited that they even ran around the pitch for half a week to celebrate the goal.

However, only 5 minutes passed.

Chu Ge was violated with the ball in front of Atletico Madrid's penalty area, and the referee blew for a direct free-kick.

Chu Ge, who has become the heart of Castivia's frontline, undoubtedly won the right to take the free-kick.

He used a banana ball to penetrate the Atletico goal and tie the score for his team.

Shortly thereafter, Chu Ge dribbled the ball on the flank, breaking through three Atletico defenders in a row and entering the penalty area.

He did a wall-to-wall tie with Agusa.

Immediately, he dribbled into the six-yard box.

Facing the Atletico goalkeeper, Chu Ge shot from a small angle, and the football drilled between the goalkeeper's legs and rolled into the net again.

2:1。

Real Madrid put the score in the lead.

Then, the race officially entered the track of the Castilla side.

6:2!

At the Stadio di Stefano, Real Madrid bloodied their city rivals.

In the 80th minute of the game, when Chu Ge was substituted, all the fans and reporters who watched applauded him.

In this game, Chu Ge scored a hat trick.

It was the second hat-trick of his career.
