Chapter 594: "Zori's" Diary
Wednesday, December 4th
After this afternoon's training session, Mr. Alonso announced the good news before the disbandment of the team, I was drawn to the first team along with two other companions and was in the squad for tomorrow night's game against Murcia, which was like a birthday plus Christmas package, and I was dizzy. If it weren't for the friends around me rushing up to "congratulate" with their savage hugs, I believe I wouldn't have found my thoughts so quickly, and I don't know where I had gone.
That night, when I got home, I almost lost sleep. And I also know that my parents and brother have not been able to rest well, and they are also proud of me. It's a great feeling!

At 9:30 a.m., I walked into the first-team training ground with Elias and Jorge under the guidance of the team's assistant coach, Mr. Juan, and my heart almost stopped beating when Mr. Vallejo welcomed us as third captain. As a centre-back, Varane and Ryo Vallejo have always been my idols and I can't find more words to describe how it was to play alongside a legend like them.
Then we met Mr. Lee again, ah no, it was Coach Lee, who was also the idol of all our Castilians. When he appeared on the sidelines before the end of last season, his friends were thrilled and felt that the future was infinitely brighter. It's a pity that apart from Alvaro, no one has been promoted to the first team this season, and a large number of older teammates have been loaned to other teams, which has attracted many doubts from my friends, including the ignorant me.
But fortunately, Coach Li has not forgotten us, this cold winter has brought warmth and hope to everyone, and his results in the first team are also very good, everyone is willing to play for him, and I am one of the lucky ones, which is really good.
When Coach Li asked us to introduce ourselves in his kind tone, I was so nervous that I forgot all the content I had designed last night, and just said some basic information about myself like a fool, such as:
"My name is FernΓ‘ndez Carlo Villar, you can call me 'Zori', and this is the nickname that my grandfather gave me. I was born on October 6, 2005, Libra, 19 years old, 1.88 meters tall, weighs 79 kilograms, has an older brother and a younger sister at home, and lives three streets away on Forrikar Street.
I joined Real Madrid's junior team when I was eight years old and have stayed here ever since, just promoted to Castilla in March this year, and only started to get a regular place this season. β
Listen, this self-introduction is simply weak, is there any! Looking back on it now, I still feel a fever on my face.
But at least I was a little bit better than Jorge's guy, and the kid ended his speech with a single sentence, which made the big brothers in the first team laugh, which was a shame for us Castile.
Look at Elias, that free and easy demeanor, it's really enviable!
Of course, this is also the reason why everyone is very familiar with him and is willing to cheer him on. Who made Elias's father Zizou, and his three elder brothers are also active professional players who went out of Real Madrid, and this connection is really unattainable for ordinary people.

I wrote this diary after I woke up in the morning, because I was very tired physically and mentally after returning home last night, so I was supposed to record my thoughts about the game this morning. Although it had been a full eleven hours since the second leg of the Copa del Rey quarter-finals, I still had all the important moments in my mind, and it was stress-free to retell them.
Since it was a provisional list, the shirt numbers of Elias and Jorge were also reported to the Football Association on Wednesday night along with the squad, and it wasn't until yesterday afternoon that we saw the first-team shirt with our name and number printed on it. When I saw No. 27 and my name imprinted on that fantastic white robe, tears welled up in my eyes. And it wasn't just me, but both of them cried, and it was the first time I had seen Jorge cry with little special expression, but I didn't have any desire to laugh at him, because at that moment, all three of us understood each other's feelings.
Let's not talk about these embarrassing things, and go back to the events of yesterday.
The afternoon session was mainly based on analysing several of the opponent's attacking routines and practicing our own tactics, which was not much different from when we were in Castile, but the first team obviously did a much better job in terms of details, and the defensive coach Mr. Rui Jorge even sent a statistical table to each of our defenders, which recorded the various strengths, weaknesses and preferences of the opposing attackers, and the club's ability to gather intelligence is really strong.
But what made the three of us extremely excited was that Coach Li promised in front of everyone that if the team could take a three-goal lead in the course of the game, then he would consider making my first-team debut with Elias and Jorge, and promised to provide us with a full half an hour at most.
After teasing a while, the big brothers also made a promise to the three of us to try their best to end the suspense of the game, Master Vallejo (it was Coach Li who asked me to call it that, saying that since yesterday, I am the master's apprentice, and also explained what kind of special state the master-apprentice relationship in the Celestial Empire is, which is very novel) also specially told me to prepare as soon as possible, because getting enough playing time can almost be determined in advance, which makes me feel even more excited.
I was still dreaming of what it would be like to be playing with my master at centre-back at the Santiago Bernabeu, but who knew that when that moment really came, I was already in a state of endless tension. Even when assistant coach Mr. Platz called me to the sideline to warm up before half-time, I didn't hear it, but Elias pushed me in time to avoid a possible reprimand.
However, during the two warm-ups before and after halftime, I was subconsciously using the habits I had developed over the years to carry out activities in various parts, but my eyes were always on the situation on the court, and my mind was full of ideas about how I would play if I went up.
It wasn't until the sixty-second minute that I heard Mr. Platz call me back to the bench and knew that the dream I had been looking forward to one day since I was a child had finally arrived.
When Mr. Platz pulled me and two other friends to his side to explain the next tactics, the nervousness that had been bothering me seemed to disappear in an instant, leaving only the urgency to play and contribute to the team.
Since we were already in a 4-0 lead in the score, the tasks assigned to us were relatively simple, trying to relax our bodies, paying attention to the sneak attacks of several attackers on the other side, boldly using our best technical moves, etc., obviously hoping that the three of us could make our first-team debut smoothly.
But from Elias and Jorge's eyes, I saw their ambitions to make a splash, and I was amused, because I thought so too.
December and 6, 2024, will be a day I will never forget, because it was on this night that I, FernΓ‘ndez Carlo Villar, made my first appearance on the pitch for the sacred Real Madrid team and began a legendary journey β something I have always believed in.
Okay, let's record here first, before I know it, the time has come to 8:50, and if you don't set off, you will be late, and you will continue in the evening. (PS: This phrase is to be deleted from the memoirs of the future great Zori.) οΌ

When I got home, I was so tired, and the amount of training in the first team was really not comparable to that in Castile, at least half the way, and even a trainer like me was almost overwhelmed, let alone the two weak chickens.
However, Elias and Jorge have been in good spirits, and the reason is naturally that last night's performance was unanimously praised by Coach Li and the media.
In all fairness, the two of them did play more in their debut than I did, but it's not that I'm not as good as them, it's that Murcia's level is too good to bring any threat to the defense line formed by the master and me, so I have no room to play at all.
On the contrary, it is their weak defensive ability that allows Elias, who plays in the midfield, and Jorge, who plays in the center, to find a lot of opportunities, which naturally seems to attract the attention of the fans more, which is really unfair.
On the pitch, the frontcourt players always get more attention than the defenders, even if it's in my ...... And under the master's watching, the opponent's Aguilera, who is temporarily ranked fifth in the West Liga scorer list, failed to get a chance to get up and attack the goal, and I also succeeded in facing all three tackles, but only got a handful of mentions after the game, not even a fraction of Jorge's guy, I was angry,
Of course, my good friend and nemesis (both strikers and centre-backs have a relationship) did well last night, scoring his maiden goal just before the end of the game on his first senior debut to give us a 5-0 victory.
It's obviously an exaggeration to say that he became famous in a fight, but judging from the reactions heard today, this guy has indeed become famous in the entire city. However, there are many media who have questioned whether he will be the next Portillo, Morata or Mariano, and jokes aside, no one knows better than me how good the 19-year-old striker is β well, Mr. Alonso knows it, and Coach Lee probably knows it, otherwise we wouldn't have just been promoted to the first team.
In short, Jorge is definitely not the kind of player who is short-lived, and he will become Real Madrid's next Raul...... In terms of technical type, it seems that he is more like Mr. Morientes! No matter what, it's a legend of the team anyway.
And Elias, although he failed to make a direct contribution such as goals or assists, the aura of Zizou's son on him is enough to attract attention. In addition, he completed a successful Marseille slalom in the game, and directly appeared on the front page of the sports newspaper "As", which is really unreasonable!
As for me, the great FernΓ‘ndez Carlo Villar AKA Zori, will be the new Hierro of the team! However, it seems that Shui Ye is more popular with modern fans, should I strengthen my ability to head the ball in my daily training, and I should be able to get more attention as a defender with a knife. Well, ask the master tomorrow.

I envy Jorge! Not only did he get the spotlight in the local media, but he also got his second straight chance to play, and although it was only seven minutes, it was clear that this guy was a little bit more important to the coaching staff than Elias and me.
But there is no way to do it, who makes the team's strikers more tight, Rodrigo's big brother has a slight injury to his calf, I don't know if it will affect the next game. Could it be that this is a revelation from God that I can get more opportunities to use my goalscoring skills from set-pieces?
But the day before yesterday, I mentioned this matter to the master, and I was criticized a lot, which really embarrassed me.
Forget it, after the end of the daily training, I will come to practice the goal in front of the goal, the opportunity is reserved for those who are prepared, I believe that the moment that belongs to me will come sooner or later. Come on, Zori!

My Champions League debut, it was a wonderful feeling!
In the final round of the group stage, away to Eredivisie leaders Ajax, I reached a milestone in the 66th minute of the second half, representing the great Real Madrid on the battlefield of European competition.
And most importantly, I was much better this time than I was a week ago, blocking a powerful shot in front of goal at the end of the day, helping the team to maintain a 2-1 lead and win the group and complete the pre-match goal.
After the game, Coach Li praised me in front of so many reporters, and there were many comments about me on the Internet. Haha, finally I won't let Jorge be beautiful anymore.
It was the happiest day I've ever played, so I'll be sure to describe it in my future autobiography. The great Zori thus embarked on the road to fame, well, that's how it is written.
