On the evening of April 22, Inter Milan slaughtered Reggina 5-0 at home. Until the 76th minute, Inter Milan still led 3-0. Ricardo came off the bench in the 77th minute and then scored twice in just four minutes.

'If Ricardo can maintain this form, they have a good chance of coming back against the mighty Real Madrid in midweek.' Milan sports newspaper said.

"Ronaldo is the number one in the world, but Ricardo is not bad either, he has scored 21 goals in the league this season and is very likely to win the Serie A Golden Boot. He made 44 appearances for Inter Milan in all competitions, scoring 32 goals, which is not much worse than Ronaldo's goalscoring efficiency. His partnership with Adriano has every chance of beating Real Madrid. This is the statement of the newspaper Torino Sport.

Marca said: "Adriano has not scored or assisted in five consecutive games and his form is worrying. Mancini will be good news for Real Madrid if he stubbornly continues to use him. ”

After this game, Inter Milan have reached 83 points, while Juventus were held to a draw at home by Lazio and currently have only 77 points, six points behind Inter. With only three rounds left in the league, it can be said that Inter Milan has won the Serie A title this season.

Inter Milan can also put all their energy into the Champions League.

In response to the fact that Real Madrid used set-pieces to threaten the goal many times in the last leg, Inter Milan's training focus in the past two days has been to defend free kicks.

As for how to keep an eye on Ronaldo...... This topic does not need to be studied, because there is no solution for the time being.

On Earth, no team can keep Ronaldo dead unless there is a bus in front of the ball.

Looking at Ricardo, who had been silent during training, Mancini finally couldn't help it.

During the break, he called Ricardo to the sidelines.

"Robert, what's the matter?" Ricardo said wiping his sweat.

"Didn't you listen to what I said on the plane?" Mancini said with a straight face, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. You are who you are, and you don't need to compare yourself to anyone. ”

"I know, Robert, I didn't go to compare with Ronaldo, I knew I would never be able to beat him."

"Yes, you can never beat him, and when he is at his peak, you are still young. By the time you're at the top, he's old. You are not players of the same generation, there is no comparison at all. All I can say is that, in my opinion, when you reach your peak, you will never be inferior to Ronaldo's peak. You have that potential. ”

Ricardo nodded, shook his head again, and said nothing.

'I know you shouldn't be completely counted on in such a crucial game, after all, you're only 19 years old. At the age of 19, most of the players were still in the reserves. Even when they make it to the first team, they usually struggle to rotate their appearances. And you, who have occupied a main position in a giant like Inter Milan, have become the attacking core of the team, because you have the ability. ”

"But every time I remind myself that you are a 19-year-old child, and you are not mentally mature enough to not be too burdened by you."

'In the last game, you saved the team, you gave us hope of a comeback. But I don't want to put you under more pressure, you know? If you're doing a great job, I thank you; If you're not good enough, that's normal and even right, because you're only 19 years old, and mistakes and mistakes are inevitable. Don't always want to be the hero of the team, Ricardo. ”

Mancini spoke in one gulp, then looked at Ricardo.

There was no expression on Licardo's face. After a while, a smile appeared on his face: "I see, thank you, Robert." ”

Mancini breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good to know, go enjoy your football." ”

……

In the evening, he dragged his tired body back home, and Stella was sitting cross-legged on the sofa watching TV.

Ricardo lay down on the couch, resting his head on Stella's bouncy lap and sighed comfortably.

Stella didn't take her eyes off the TV, and after a while she asked, "What's wrong?" Don't say a word. ”

"I'm too tired to talk."

"It's like this every day." Stella said lightly.

"Today...... "Ricardo said slowly, "Robert said to me, let me not be too burdened, and don't always think about being the hero of the team. ”

"I don't think he's wrong." Stella throws a popcorn into her sexy little mouth.

"No, I just want to win."

"Everyone wants to win!"

Ricardo recalled some details on the field, "There are some people who don't care if they win or lose. Stella, we're definitely going to win the league this year. If I win the Champions League again, I want to move. ”

"Transfers? Why? Where to? Stella finally looked away from the TV screen and looked down at Ricardo.

"Because I want to find a new challenge, as for where to go," Ricardo thought about, "I haven't thought about it yet, but it's a big team in the Premier League or La Liga that can play in the Champions League." Specifically, after the World Cup is over, let Farah operate. ”

Stella shook her head, her clear eyes revealing an inexplicable meaning: "I don't want to leave, Ricardo, my career just started in Milan with great difficulty, I don't want to leave here......"

"Even if you go to England or Spain, you can continue your career, and Milan is not far away."

"You don't understand. I like Milan, Licardo, don't go okay? Stella's voice took on a hint of pleading.

"I'm definitely leaving, if not this year, then next year or the year after. I'm not going to play in Italy for the rest of my life. Ricardo said firmly.

"Whatever you want, you can go, I won't go anyway." Stella angrily lifted Ricardo's head away, stood up, and rushed into the bedroom.

Ricardo didn't chase after him. His mind had drifted to a few days later, at the Meazza Stadium.

It was as if he could see the blue-black display in the sky, the huge TIFO with his portrait painted on it, and the crowds in the stands. He seemed to hear tens of thousands of fans shouting in unison: "Your Royal Highness! "Your Royal Highness!" "Your Royal Highness!"

The sound was so shocking that it seemed to make the pillars of the stadium fall dust, and the grass trembled.

He seemed to see Ronaldo standing in front of him, wearing a white Real Madrid jersey and smiling and showing a pair of rabbit teeth.

"I'm not as good as you, Dadardo," Ricardo said into Ronaldo's image, "I won't be able to catch up with you in another 10 years, you're the best." But I want to win, I want to win. I'm going to win. You'll regret it, you shouldn't have left Inter, you shouldn't have left me. If you don't transfer, you'll be able to win another treble with me. You'll regret it, Daddardo. ”
