Chapter 50: The Champions League is over
For Real Madrid, the result of elimination is really unacceptable to them.
This is indeed extremely cruel, as a super giant with a century of glory, as the best team of the last century assessed by FIFA, and as the No.1 with the most victories in the history of the Champions League, Real Madrid has been blocked from the Champions League quarterfinals in recent years.
Especially in the summer, the club's ambition to rebuild a luxurious and bright galaxy battleship with a lot of money, Real Madrid wants to re-bloom the brilliance of a century-old giant, but did not expect that in the Champions League, it is to continue the embarrassing situation of "Champions League Sixteen", which is really an extremely heavy blow.
The Real Madrid players were lonely and disappointed on the field, and the hundreds of Real Madrid fans in the stands were also in pain, and some even covered their cheeks and sobbed.
But the football world is like this, it's not that if you're strong, you're rich, you're going to have a lot of stars, you can get everything. There are wins and losses, some people laugh and some people cry, no one will be brilliant forever, no one can prosper forever, after the Galaxy Battleship created a huge glory, Real Madrid began a long period of internal turmoil, and now they want to bounce back and regain lost ground, but obviously, it will be a long process, at least in this year's Champions League, they will not be able to regain confidence.
Fan Bizhuang lay on his back on the turf, without any expression on his face, but in the depths of his eyes, a touch of disappointment could not be concealed.
He was disappointed with the result, and in the winter, he turned down Ferguson's offer, partly because he wanted to continue to show himself in the Champions League at the highest level of European clubs, but he did not expect that in the end, he could not get back to the main position of the team, and he and his team were also eliminated in the Champions League.
For Pellegrini, Fan Bizhuang has some complaints in his heart. If their "mentor" can firmly put themselves into the starting list, if the first leg is played against the mentor, the mentor is not supportive, and the tactics are more opposed, then they will not lose at home, then the result, will it be different?
But the result is already doomed, what happened has happened, and he is powerless to change anything.
Fan Bizhuang didn't complain too much, after going through a lot of things, his heart was strong and open-minded enough. Complaining and dissatisfaction don't help, all he can do is forget about it for a while, then clean up his mood and start again, although the Champions League is over, the season is not over, he and Real Madrid, there is still something to chase.
It's just that Fan Bizhuang didn't realize that there seemed to be some cracks between him and Pellegrini, the once close master and apprentice, perhaps as early as when he was in a small city, because of Pellegrini's "good intentions and concealment", there was a trace of estrangement between the two people, of course, this may not be a contradiction, it's just that the two people have different ideas and views on many things......
"This year's Champions League is over!"
Kaka walked over, sighed and reached out to pull Fan Bizhuang up from the ground.
"yes, the Champions League is over."
Van Bizhuang understood what Kaka meant, but he still tried to smile reluctantly, his eyes looked at the field, some teammates stood up, some went to comfort his teammates, and Pellegrini also walked into the field, patting his players with a solemn expression as comfort.
Fan Bizhuang withdrew his gaze.
"The Champions League is over, but the league isn't over yet."
"Yes, the league is not over yet, this is our last battlefield, we must not give up!"
lost the opportunity to compete in the Champions League, and the league became the last straw for Real Madrid. Since it is impossible to use the Champions League as a farewell gift, it is also a consolation to win the league title.
Kaka smiled and hugged Fan Bizhuang: "League championship, we must win!" ”
"Hmm."
Fan Bizhuang patted his friend's back and nodded heavily.
……
Lyon, in a quiet apartment.
Bella lightly exited the bedroom, and little Fan was already sleeping peacefully, so she had time to rest for a while.
Little Fan is the milk name of the little guy, and the full name is called Fan. Conterres. Bella asked the child to follow her surname, but a trace of thought in her heart was to let her use the child's name with that person's surname.
Although the man didn't know all this, he ...... This is also Bella's only remaining sustenance.
Mademoiselle Mathilde had fallen asleep in another room after a busy day, and the middle-aged woman's slight snoring could be faintly heard.
It's been almost half a year since I came to Lyon, and Bella is very grateful to Mathilde, since her belly grew bigger, it has always been this simple French woman who takes care of herself.
The only bad thing is that Ms. Mathilde has some "broken mouth" attributes, that is, people often say that she chatters non-stop when she does housework, she also chatters when she takes care of children, and even when she cooks, her mouth does not stop at all - these trivialities of life are just that, Mathilde often mentions little Fan's father, she is very curious and dissatisfied with the "Mr. Fan" who is always working abroad on business trips, and always complains in front of Bella, saying that such a husband and father, It's just too incompetent......
This is very frustrating for Bella, she can't tell Mathilde that little Fan's father will never come back - because the other party has no idea that he has his own blood in this world.
In fact, when making the decision to give birth to this child, Bella was mentally prepared for such a situation. And now it seems that it was a wise decision to leave her niece, to leave England, and to settle in Lyon, where no one knew her.
Here, there is no one she knows, no friend or co-worker will wear tinted glasses to her unwed mother, because strangers will not know about her past at all......
"Alas!"
Bella sighed softly, and there was an imperceptible trace of tiredness on her beautiful face. She poured herself a glass of water and sat down on the couch in the living room.
After thinking about it, she got up again, turned on the TV in front of her, and turned the sound to the lowest.
There was a football match on TV, and Bella used to be just a half-baked football fan, and later because of that person, she paid more attention to football, but since she knew she was pregnant, especially after deciding to leave Xiao Xiaofan, she rarely watched TV - the doctor said that electronic products produce a lot of radiation, and for the health of the baby in her belly, she temporarily gave up her hobby of watching football games on TV.
"Football game, oh, it's Lyon......"
Bella's eyes lit up slightly, and a hint of interest arose in her heart, but then she shook her head, and the fans were waving and cheering on the TV, and the Lyon players on the field were equally excited to clap their hands on the sidelines and wave to the fans.
It was a live broadcast and it was clear that the game was over, the home team had won and the players and fans were doing their post-match activities.
Bella was a little disappointed, picked up the remote control casually, and prepared to change the channel.
At this time, the picture was switched to the game venue by the live director, and a group of players wearing dark green jerseys were squatting or standing in disappointment, shaking their heads and sighing.
"Real Madrid?"
Bella had just asked such doubts, and then, her eyes suddenly widened, and a familiar figure, a face that had appeared countless times in her sleep, met her eyes.
Fan Bizhuang lay on the turf in a daze, his face was full of waves, and then, a captain came over, pulled him up, and the two talked in a low voice, and then hugged each other.
There was a soft voiceover coming from the TV.
"Once again, Real Madrid fell outside the quarter-finals of the Champions League, and Van and his team-mates were full of disappointment. But it doesn't have to be that way, Van is a good player, he's great, very good! Temporary failure is not the same as permanent failure, come on, Fan, next year, you will do better and go further with your teammates! ”
Bella didn't listen to the voice coming out of the TV, she just stared blankly at the TV screen, the once young and silent teenager, his appearance has not changed, but he feels more restrained and mature.
He hugs his teammates, then walks to the next teammate, or pats him lightly on the shoulder, or gently hugs him, and then walks to another teammate. He also slowly walked to the sidelines and bowed slightly to the fans in the stands to express his gratitude.
Although he is speechless, he shows the style of a calm general!
"He's really not the same as he used to be."
"He really ...... Matured. ”
Bella watched the TV quietly, to be exact, at the man who kept moving around on the TV, and the corners of her eyes gradually became wet.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………
While packing in the locker room, Fan Bizhuang received a call from England, it was Felisa.
The two have not been in touch for almost a month, not because of any relationship problems between the two, but because of work, Felisa participated in an outdoor show organized by the British BBC, which was not filmed in Europe, but in distant Africa.
The communication situation over there was not good, so the contact between the two people could only be helplessly reduced, and as soon as the filming ended, Felisa, who had returned to the UK, couldn't wait to call.
"A call from my little lover, oh, oh, oh, I seem to smell a strong smell of male hormones!"
Kaka glanced at it, then laughed and teased.
Fan Bizhuang smiled, ignored Kaka's "big mouth", and reached out and pressed the answer button.
