Chapter 17: Benzema doesn't take the blame!
No matter what happened after the race, Wu Lei's debut was perfect!
The scouts and data departments of various teams in La Liga are working overtime to look through the video of Wu Lei's game in the Chinese Super League, analyzing Wu Lei's playing style and personal ability, so that the head coaches of their respective teams will not be ignorant of this new player when they play against Granada in the second half of the season!
Granada city center.
Ji Qin and Wu Lei are looking at the house accompanied by a local real estate agent, and the club will naturally not solve the housing problem for the players, unless you are a superstar. So after Ji Qin and Wu Lei came to Granada, they stayed in the hotel.
But this is not a long-term solution after all, so taking advantage of the fact that Wu Lei did not play this week, Ji Qin asked the two of them to come out together to find a house.
Granada is currently only a team in the Spanish second division, so there are only two missions in the second division and the Copa del Rey. Granada were knocked out early in the Copa del Rey competition, so now they just have to focus on La Liga.
What's more, the Copa del Rey championship has always been the "consolation prize" of La Liga giant Barcelona Real Madrid, few teams can get involved in it, and there may be an occasional time, which is also won by Atletico Madrid and Valencia.
Originally, according to Wu Lei's meaning, Granada would train in the club without a game this week, and let his wife return to China when the house problem came, and then he and Ji Qin could just find a place to rent and live.
But Ji Qin doesn't do it! Anyway, I'm a billionaire now, have you ever seen a billionaire rent a house?
It's a bargain!
So Ji Qin contacted the real estate agent early to show them the house, and the requirements were very simple, just two houses close to each other.
According to Ji Qin and Wu Lei's plans for his own future, if everything goes well, he should not transfer to Granada. If there is really that day, it will also be back to China and Shanghai Port, after all, age is here, how many players in the world can get older and more demonic like Buffon and Ibrahimovic?
So the house in Granada may not be able to live for a few years, but the time will not be too short, Wu Lei and Ji Qin are not poor, although they are usually more frugal, but in such a big thing as buying a house, they are still willing to spend money, not to mention buying a house and buying land is a tradition engraved in the bones of the Chinese for thousands of years!
After a day of shopping in romantic Granada, Ji Qin and Wu Lei finally settled on two small villas.
These two villas are adjacent, covering a small area of only 100 square meters, with a two-storey duplex structure, downstairs is the living room, dining room, kitchen, and upstairs are two bedrooms. The most important thing is that it is very close to the club and the city center, whether it is Wu Lei's usual football training or Zhong Jiabei's grocery shopping or something, it is very convenient. And the seller's asking price is not expensive, the two villas are only 4 million euros, which is really the price of cabbage!
Since both parties were satisfied, things were easy to do, and in the end, Ji Qin and Wu Lei paid 2 million euros each to reach a deal with the seller. As for the labor fees of the real estate agent, the seller will naturally bear it.
In order to allow Wu Lei to train without being distracted, Zhong Jiabei was responsible for the decoration of the house and the purchase of furniture, while Ji Qin was much simpler, as long as he lived comfortably, he simply spent 100,000 euros to find a local designer to design it, and he went to the Bernabeu to watch the game as a shopkeeper.
This is the second leg of the 1/8 final of the Champions League, Real Madrid hosts the Eredivisie giants Ajax!
Yes, friends who followed last year's Champions League match will know that this is another upset! Ajax's performance in the Champions League was a big surprise, overturning the galaxy giant ship Real Madrid and the "old woman" Juventus with Ronaldo in one fell swoop, which became a topic!
Real Madrid defeated Ajax 2-1 away in the first leg and returned to the Bernabeu with two away goals, everyone thought that Real Madrid would win easily, but who would have thought that the three-time Galaxy Battleship would go home in the first round of the Champions League knockout round.
In the seventh minute, Tadic capitalised on Kroos' mistake and burst into the box after a steal in midfield to bounce back to Hakim Zijek, who fired a powerful shot into the bottom left corner of the net.
In the 18th minute, Tadic slipped away from Casemiro in a Marseille maneuver and crossed to Nerres, who slid past Courtois and sent the ball into the net from close range under Modric's close defence.
Real Madrid, who were two goals behind, suffered back-to-back blows in the 29th and 35th minutes, with Vazquez and Vinicius going off injured and Gareth Bale and Asensio coming off the bench. Just before half-time, Bale hit the woodwork with a shot.
At the start of the second half, Ajax continued to widen the gap in the 62nd minute, when Tadic received a cross from a team-mate, adjusted on the edge of the box and pushed it into the top left corner of the goal. In the 70th minute, Sergio Reguilon crossed from the left, and Asensio fired a low shot from the edge of the penalty area into the net, rekindling a glimmer of hope for Real Madrid to turn the tables.
But just two minutes later, the visitors won a free-kick in front of the goal, and the full moon scimitar in the front corner of the house went straight to the far corner to lock the score at 4:1 for Ajax!
Before the end, Real Madrid defender Nacho was sent off after receiving two yellow cards in a row.
Real Madrid exited the tournament with an aggregate score of 3:5 over two legs, while Ajax reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League for the first time since 2003!
Time seems to have returned to nine years ago, in that turbulent era, Real Madrid, under the leadership of various managers, successively stopped in the first round of the Champions League knockout round, and was named the "Champions League Sixteen Lang"!
In this game, Tadic used his amazing performance to conquer the Bernabeu Stadium and help Ajax penetrate the door of Real Madrid twice in a row in 18 minutes.
And Schöne used his exquisite curling ball to make Courtois only look at the ball and sigh!
In addition to Tadic, this Ajax team has also caused a storm of youth, with De Ligt and De Jong being the best of them. Barcelona acquired Frenkie de Jong for 75 million euros, and De Ligt also landed at Juventus in Serie A at the end of this season!
For a top club, the backstabber is essential. In addition to the mediocrity of head coach Solari, the performance on the pitch is naturally indispensable to the players.
If you want to put it aside in the past, it must be Benzema who stands up again, but this time you can't blame him!
After the game, the media unanimously pointed the guns on the German Kroos.
The goal that broke the deadlock in the 7th minute was due to Kroos's mistake with the ball, after being tackled, Kroos continued to lie on the grass and watched the Ajax players advance with the ball, without the slightest counter-robbery interference, and the opponent took the ball straight into the rewrite the score.
Of course, we also know that this is Kroos's old problem, whether it is in Real Madrid or in the national team, Kroos's defensive awareness is very low, and losing the ball and walking has become his label!
But the situation has changed, and now the Galaxy Battleship, which is in a difficult period, does not have the extra energy to wipe his ass again!
Moreover, since the beginning of this season, Kroos has been in a sluggish state, and the German legend Schuster has also given him harsh criticism: Kroos has become a tractor internal combustion engine, not Audi!
When it's time for a change, the dynasty that belongs to Real Madrid has come to an end, and the Bernabeu will finally have a new king!
As for now, Ji Qin just wants to shout out their hearts for Real Madrid fans: Long time no see, Sixteen Lang!
