Valencia's rented training base in Madrid.

Suddenly, there was a scream, which made the warm-up team members, Flores, who was studying the tactics of tomorrow night's game with Paul, and the Chinese staff who were preparing various shooting equipment, all subconsciously turn their heads and look over.

Vicente clutched his knees and rolled on the turf with a painful face.

Hernandez, the team doctor, reacted the fastest, and ran over with an emergency medical kit, which was not at all like a half-old man who was over fifty years old.

As the clock ticked by, the black lines on Hernandez's brow became more and more apparent, and after about five minutes, he walked up to Flores and whispered in his ear.

What the?

Flores immediately felt like he had suffered five thunderbolts, and the words that Hernandez said kept popping up in his mind: the preliminary diagnosis, the cruciate ligament of the knee was partially torn, and it was conservatively estimated that he would have to be suspended for three months.

The Chinese team knew it wasn't a good time to do the interview, so they spent the day filming Valencia's training sessions and didn't invite any of the players to join the interview, including Elo.

The gentlemanly demeanor of CCTV made the management of Valencia Club very satisfied.

After the training, Huang Jianxiang and Liu Jianhong followed Ailuo with two CCTV staff.

They were mainly responsible for photographing Iroh's life after training.

Valencia injured an absolute main player Vicente today, and Iroh was not in a very good mood, and did not take the initiative to talk to Huang Jianxiang like he did in the Netherlands last year, he was thinking about the game tomorrow night.

Because with Vicente's injury, it will be much easier for Barcelona to defend Valencia's quick counter-attack, as long as they focus on themselves at the end of the counter-attack.

Such a single attack is bound to be hit!

*****

In the evening, all the members of the Valencia team had a group meal at a restaurant in Madrid, including the filming team of Huang Jianxiang and Liu Jianhong, as well as related staff.

Being able to dine with Valencia's players at close range is also something that the leaders of CCTV strive for.

Huang Jianxiang and Liu Jianhong sat on the table opposite Arlo normally.

The efficiency of this restaurant is fast and the food is delivered in a few moments.

Compared with the speed of nutritious meals for Valencia players, the food customized by CCTV staff is much slower.

Watching Iroh eat chicken breast, steak and pure potato foam without any added ingredients, Huang Jianxiang and Liu Jianhong looked at each other, as if they were both enough to see the same surprise in each other's eyes.

For those of them who often play in foreign countries, it is easy to know the standard food of European players, which is the two plates of nutritious meals in front of them.

In their minds, this is completely unpalatable food.

I don't want to say the taste, and it is very sticky, which is completely not in line with the appetite of the Chinese.

This is also the reason why Huang Jianxiang and Liu Jianhong were surprised.

In less than ten minutes, Iroh had eaten up two plates of food, and interestingly, he stretched out after eating.

"Xiao Ai, you ...... Do you eat this food all the time? ”

Huang Jianxiang couldn't help but ask.

Iroh stretched and looked disapproving, "Well, yes......"

"Do you eat this every day?" Liu Jianhong asked subconsciously.

"Yes......" Iroh touched David Villa's psoas muscles with his elbow while he was still eating steak, causing David Villa to stand up subconsciously, attracting a burst of sideways glances, followed by a burst of good-natured laughter.

David Villa was so troubled by Iroh that he immediately showed a resentful expression, and then moved a little away from Iroh.

Ailuo shrugged his shoulders, feeling rather bored, he remembered that Huang Jianxiang seemed to have said something just now, turned his head and asked, "Brother Xiang, what did you say just now?" ”

Huang Jianxiang secretly calculated the relationship between Iroh and his teammates just now, it looks very good, compared to the lack of confidence from the heart of those domestic players who contact foreign high-level football players, Iroh is simply full of confidence!

When he came back to his senses, he pointed to the plate with no food left, "Do you eat this every day?" ”

"Of course," Eloh pouted, "otherwise what do you think I'm eating?" ”

This answer surprised Huang Jiaxiang and Liu Jianhong again, if it is good to eat occasionally, but eat this every day......

It's a little sick to your stomach just thinking about it.

Airo seemed to see through the thoughts of the two of them, and shrugged his shoulders, "There is no way to do it, only these unpalatable but nutritious foods can provide me with enough energy, otherwise it will be difficult to maintain the energy we need during training and competition, besides...... My strong muscles are also obtained by these scientific nutritious meals......"

Ello's answer silenced the two again, and sure enough...... There are no shortcuts to success.

Like those so-called big names in China, as long as they have a little achievement, they will eat and drink a lot, and they don't care whether the food they consume will provide the energy they need.

That's the difference between a professional player and a semi-professional player.

Huang Jianxiang suddenly remembered a very popular joke on the domestic Internet:

Football, life, African players.

Regard football as the job of European players.

Treat football as a game and be a South American player.

Regard football as a child's play, and it is a Chinese player.

These jokes really have their truth.

*****

The next day, the headlines appeared on the kiosks in the streets of Spain:

"Vicente Injury Farewell Season" - Marca newspaper

A Turnaround in Barcelona? -- As

It is worth mentioning the report of "World Sports", with a subtle snickering, "Yesterday morning, when Valencia was warming up at the Madrid training base, the main right winger suddenly fell on the turf when the warm-up was not complete, and was finally diagnosed with a partial cruciate ligament tear in the knee, which will be out of the field for at least three months, which means that he has said goodbye to all the games in Valencia this season, and he will not be able to participate in the Copa del Rey final tonight and the second leg of the Champions League semi-final in the middle of next week. It was a huge blow to Valencia......"

Other mainstream European media outlets have also picked up the news.

With Vicente's sudden injury, Valencia fans also had doubts about whether the team could win the Copa del Rey.

Especially as the "As" newspaper said that day, "Vicente's injury made Valencia rely more on Ai when switching from defense to attack, and this reliance directly made Barcelona a lot easier in the case of switching from attack to defense, because they only need to defend Ai to ......death."

*****

The Calderón Stadium was packed that day, with Barcelona fans in red and blue jerseys and white Valencia fans occupying the north and south stands before spreading.

There are also neutral fans from Madrid, or fans who are suddenly in the mood to buy tickets to watch the game.

Most of the fans who came to Spain were Chinese tourists or Chinese students studying in Spain.

As is often the case in La Liga this season, matches with Valencia will always have the shadow of Chinese fans.

Since CCTV does not have the permission to broadcast the Copa del Rey live, Huang Jianxiang, Liu Jianhong and related staff from CCTV are all sitting in the audience of Valencia's internal tickets, that is, sitting near the die-hard fans of Valencia.

As a result, they can also get up close and personal with avid Valencia fans.

Huang Jianxiang relied on his excellent communication skills to mingle with the Valencia die-hard fans in the stands, and when these Valencia die-hard fans knew that Huang Jianxiang and others were the commentators and staff of China National Television, they became more enthusiastic, and when it came to Ayro, there was an endless stream!

"I'm telling you, Ai is a god-like existence in our minds!"

"You see, Pacino's single-season goal record in La Liga and Altafini's single-season goal record in the Champions League have all been trampled under Ai's feet......"

"What I like the most is how many people Ai has in the process of dribbling at high speed."

"Is Chinese kung fu really that powerful?"

……

……

For a while, the enthusiastic Valencia die-hard fans kept pulling Huang Jianxiang, Liu Jianhong and related CCTV staff to get close.

And Huang Jianxiang and Liu Jianhong also took the opportunity to give these enthusiastic fans an exclusive interview.

Because these fans in front of them are the most simple, and the words they said during the interview are also the most real, they all believe that this interview trip will be different.

*****

Home team dressing room (pre-match draw Valencia is the home team draw)

There is no doubt that this match is crucial for Valencia!

Because they had already lost to Barcelona at the Camp Nou four days earlier, this game cannot be lost again!

Coupled with the fact that the current main right winger Vicente is also out of injury this season, the strength of the team has dropped a few points, and if this game is lost again, then this season's Copa del Rey title and Champions League final will be handed away.

But are they willing?

No! It is impossible to be willing!!

Winning La Liga five rounds ahead of schedule has brought their self-esteem to the top!

Why is it possible to beat Barcelona twice in the league but not in the Copa del Rey and Champions League?

Flores didn't say too many encouraging words in the locker room, but simply dropped the phrase, "If we win, we are champions!" ”

Champion?

What a desirable honor?

It must be in your own hands!

……

……

There is one more important ceremony to be carried out before this Copa del Rey final begins.

That's Barcelona towards this season's league title team - Valencia! Salute!!

When the announcement at the Calderón Stadium signaled Barcelona to welcome Valencia, the whole stadium burst into loud cheers.

At the same time, Barcelona's starting eleven had extremely ugly facial expressions.

This is also the moment when the studio is most excited by the TV commentators who have the access to broadcast the Copa del Rey live, with the exception of the local commentators in Catalonia.

The pitch erupted in deafening cheers from all sides, mixed with the words "Barcelona, salute the champions!" led by the leader of the bat guards, Joe Pooh. Voice.

Very clear!
