Chapter 294: The Return to the Bernabeu
An hour later, Lee Tong-fan and Florentino left Modern-Holiday!
It is estimated that no one in the entire European football world would have thought that in such a small food shop on the streets of Madrid, there were two news that were enough to cause an earthquake in Spanish football!
The first one is already in the past tense!
It was the same partnership that the madmen Lee and Florentino had reached a year ago about the reciprocal exploitation of the former to take over the Bernabeu and the latter to leave the Galacticos! Fox took advantage of Lee's departure to drive Calderón away, while Lee, the Madman, took advantage of Lee's arrival to get rid of his reputation as a traitor!
The first time they cooperated, the two were embarrassed to get what they needed!
And in the second collaboration that just ended, the madman Lee finally achieved his goal and got the alien Ronaldo and the Brazilian rising star Marcelo with 10 million euros!
Although Flolotino hesitated, he finally agreed to Li Tongfan's offer.
On the one hand, the form of these two players has indeed declined greatly, and there is no place in the Bernabeu, so it is better to sell it to Li Tongfan as a favor...... On the other hand, as the madman Lee said, it is possible for someone to refuse my request, but Florentino you should agree to this offer, because a year ago I did much more for you than you did for me...... Li Tongfan is right!
This is why a year ago, in the summer, Li Tongfan chose to cooperate with Florentino, who had never been masked until then, to get rid of Calderon, although Calderon was still "affectionate" to Lao Li on the surface...... In the final analysis, it is to sell a favor, so as to lay the groundwork for taking Ronaldo and Marcelo from the Bernabeu today!
And Li Tongfan is not afraid of Florentino's cheating, because a person of this position will not do those villain acts of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge...... In fact, after finalizing Ronaldo and Marcelo, Lao Li still wants to take Beckham from the Bernabeu again, but Xiaobei's work is much more difficult than the first two hammers.
First of all, in the second half of this season, Beckham has successfully resolved the conflict between himself and manager Capello with his superhuman professionalism, and has become the first choice of the Italian coach in the midfield position.
Secondly, with Beckham's status in the England national team and his unabated terror appeal in the business field, Florentino, who is determined to build a galactic business empire, will never let go of the captain of the Three Lions even if he owes Lao Li a big favor!
Regarding Xiaobei's matter, Li Tongfan still has to figure it out slowly!
And about the next official purchase of Ronaldo and Marcelo, Newcastle will make a direct offer to Real Madrid!
However, during this time, all the procedures for Lao Li and Sir Hall's joint acquisition of the Magpie have not been completely completed, so Newcastle is still in a state of control, and only after the state of control is lifted!
It is estimated that there will be about half a month to go.
There will be no other problems, because Lee Tong-beom had consulted the personal wishes of the two hammers before making an offer, and the two were obviously very interested in being able to return to the service with the madman Lee!
…… Lao Li, who successfully completed the purpose of his trip to Spain, was very interested!
After leaving the Modern-Holiday gourmet restaurant, the man with infinite vanity sneaked around the bronze statue that Madrid fans had erected for him!
…… Evening!
The sunset is like blood!
The brass statue erected on the ruins of Lao Li's original villa after it was smashed is bathed in the last rays of the sun on the horizon, and its facial expression looks a little blurred, but the high raised middle finger looks "magnificent"!
There are also flowers from the fans under the pedestal of the bronze statue, and the bunches are neatly placed there!
Small cards tied with purple ribbons on top of the flowers flutter gently in the breeze.
Li Tongfan couldn't help but squat down and lift one of them, only to see that it was written in Juanxiu's Spanish:
"A complete victory in one season, your departure takes away an era!"
The sullen man watched it with emotion and grievance.
It's a good word, but it's a pity that the more you look at it, the more it looks like an elegy dedicated to revolutionary martyrs?
Frustrated, buddy is still alive!
In fact, the reason why there are so many flowers in front of the bronze statue is mainly because Real Madrid has had difficulties this season!
The 07-08 La Liga season is still two rounds away, but Real Madrid, under Capello's leadership, is only in second place in the league standings with 87 points, one point behind arch-rival Barcelona...... How does this make the defending champions embarrassed?
Remember that this time last season, the Galacticos had already won the league championship six rounds ahead of schedule, and a 100,000-person victory ceremony had already been held in the Plaza de la Ciberez in the center of Madrid...... But now, a year later, the contrast is so great!
Although Florentino brought in world-class coach Fabio Capello for the Galacticos, the defending champions still disappointingly reached the quarter-finals of the Champions League...... Although there is still hope in the league, we can only hope that the Catalan giants make mistakes in the last two rounds and maintain a complete victory, so that it is possible to come from behind and achieve a big reversal to win the league championship!
…… Turn around and look into the distance, the Bernabéu Stadium is brightly lit in the twilight!
At this moment, Li Tongfan suddenly had an irrepressible urge to go to the Bernabeu to watch the game, reached out from the pocket of Armani's trench coat and took out the ticket given to him by Florentino when they met not long ago, Lao Li thought about it and decided to drive to the Bernabeu!
The stuffy man decided to go to the Bernabeu to watch the game!
After all, I became famous there, struggled there, and received cheers there!
In half an hour, Real Madrid's home match against La Liga powerhouse Yellow Submarine Villarreal will begin, and at the same time as this game, Barcelona will take on the Sheets Atletico Madrid!
These are the two key matches in the 37th round of La Liga, because the result of the game may directly determine the league championship this season!
Everything around the Santiago Bernabeu is still so familiar!
Since the parking lot around the stadium was already full, Lao Li had to find a random parking space nearby, dress up in disguise, and hurriedly buy snacks at the snack shop in the stadium, and find a seat according to the ticket!
At this time, the referee blew the whistle for the start of the game!
Florentino's ticket to Li Tongfan is not a VIP ticket, but it is very close to the stadium, and the viewing effect is very good!
Because Lao Li was wearing sunglasses, a round folded high hat on his head, and the collar of the Armani trench coat was raised high, the fanatical fans around him did not recognize that the sneaky guy sitting next to him was the former Bernabeu people who worshipped [God on the side of the football field]!
After the start of the game, Real Madrid, in a desperate situation, took advantage of the home field and launched a fierce attack on Villarreal's goal amid the frantic shouts of more than 70,000 fans at the Bernabeu!
Capello put Ronaldo and Marcelo on the bench, Raul, Higuain and Ruud van Nistelrooy up front, while Beckham got the chance to start, forming a back two with Mohammed Diarra!
On the back line, Vicente Kompany, once Lao Li's confidant, got the opportunity to play, and he was partnered with Portugal's 30 million Mr. Pepe!
At least half of this set of plastic surgery in Italy are old people from the age of the madman Lee!
…… It was the first time that Lee Tong-beom sat in the stands at the Bernabeu to watch the game as an ordinary fan, and the atmosphere was enough to turn any introverted man with the surname Gemune into a heroic and unrestrained Predator. Everyone is waving their arms, busy bragging about their opponents' players and cheering for their team!
However, it was not Real Madrid who scored first, but the opponent Villarreal!
In just the 15th minute, the Yellow Submarine was driven by their Italian deft striker Giuseppe Rossi who took advantage of Real Madrid's heavy pressure to counter offside and successfully shook off Casillas and pushed the empty goal...... 0:1!
This is a fatal blow to Real Madrid, who can only win and cannot be defeated!
On the sidelines of the pitch, the roar of Italian Capello made every player tremble!
It's a pity that it is even more regrettable that in the midst of the tsunami-like boos of the Bernabeu fans, the impetuous and depressed Real Madrid actually conceded another goal 15 minutes later!
It was Giuseppe Rossi who scored for Villarreal!
The 20-year-old former Manchester United striker fully showed his superhuman talent in running and shooting at the Bernabeu night, and Lao Li vaguely remembered that in FM2008's evaluation of Rossi, the Italian Bantam's [shooting], [technique] and [dribbling] have reached more than 17, and he is a little guy with an infinitely bright future!
However, what interests Lao Li more in these two goals is another player in the Yellow Submarine team - Argentine striker Riquelme!
Because both of Rossi's goals came from the pampas' scalpel-like scalpel-like through thrusts!
Seeing this scene, a thought suddenly popped up in Li Tongfan's mind like lightning: Why not bring Riquelme to Newcastle?
In addition to the Turkish Emre who can bring creativity to the midfield, the likes of Alan Smith and James Milner are more inclined to the all-round midfielders within Lampard and Gerrard, and don't they just lack a playmaker and free-kick master like Riquelme?
As soon as this thought comes to mind, it is as unstoppable as an addict's onset of addiction!
Until the end of the first half, all of Lee's mind was on observing Riquelme's performance.
It doesn't matter if you look at it, Li Tongfan is like Wang Ba looking at mung beans, the more he looks, the more he looks at each other, and sometimes after seeing Riquelme make a wonderful performance on the court, Lao Li can't help but jump up and cheer...... And Li Tongfan didn't realize that his obvious bias towards the away team had made the Real Madrid fans around him cast a naked and undisguised murderous aura in his eyes............ Second!
Things have changed!
At the beginning of the game, Yellow Submarine coach Manuel Pellegrini didn't know if his head was kicked by a donkey, and he inexplicably replaced Riquelme with 23-year-old Spanish defensive midfielder Bruno.
But in this way, the desperate Real Madrid seized the opportunity!
Ruud van Nistelrooy scored twice in the 55th and 78th minutes of the second half for the Galacticos, and the youngster Higuain's goal in the 80th minute sent the entire Bernabeu into a frenzy!
Like all the fans around him, Lee jumped up with excitement when the Argentine little smoker sent the football into the goal behind Yellow Submarine goalkeeper Diego López, because essentially, as a former head coach, Lao Li still wants Real Madrid to win!
But this jump didn't matter, the collar of the Armani trench coat that was erected high softened, and the sunglasses on his face were hung up by the arm that was suddenly stretched out by the excited guy in the front row, and then ...... Not more than five or six seconds!
The hundreds of die-hard Galactic Battleship fans within four or five meters in diameter around Lao Li recognized in an instant that the guy who had always looked sneaky and cheering for the away team was actually ...... Maniac Lee?
Is it really the crazy Lee?
Soon, there was a stirring in the stands, spreading like an unstoppable plague throughout the Bernabeu, and the broadcast camera quickly found the source of the problem, when the slightly surprised face of the man appeared on the big screen of the stadium, the Bernabeu was silent for a second or two, and then instantly erupted into a huge cheer...... "...... Whew, see who this is? Actually...... It's actually Mr. Rice Bucket?? The on-site commentator exclaimed excitedly: "The madman Li who brought a mythical season to Real Madrid once came to the Bernabeu, listen to the cheers of the fans in the stands, and you will know the popularity of this Chinese man in the city of Madrid......"
The cheers at the Bernabeu are like a flash flood that has been suppressed for centuries!
The level of enthusiasm is even far greater than when Higuain scored just now!
Immediately afterwards, the on-site commentator broadcast another news that made all Real Madrid fans happy and about to faint:
"Incredible!! Atletico Madrid goal!! Sergio Aguero's free-kick cleared Valdés and Barcelona fell behind on the road!! We are ahead in the standings and the champion is beckoning!! ”
“…… Mr. Rice Bucket is really Real Madrid's lucky star, it looks like whether he is standing in front of the command box or sitting in the stands, he can bring victory to Real Madrid, damn Calderon, what the hell did this guy do! ”
On the sidelines!
Capello, who was standing in front of the coach's seat coldly, was almost crooked by the commentator's words, and being able to achieve a big reversal was my proper command and clever tactics, what is the matter with the guy who plays soy sauce Guan, the madman Lee?
However, watching the fans cheering in that direction and bending down to make the gesture of courtiers to meet the emperor, and watching even players such as Ruud van Nistelrooy and Higuain excitedly run to the front of the stands to make a long-lost military salute...... The Italian has to lament the prestige of the madman Lee at the Bernabeu, I am afraid that even if he finally leads the team to win the league title this season, he will not be able to catch up!
That damn guy who stole the limelight is indeed a legend that the Bernabeu can't replicate!
…… Considering that the fans at the scene were too crazy, Lao Li began to leave the stadium before the game was over.
It wasn't until 10 minutes later, when the referee on duty blew the whistle for the end of the game, that Lee Tong-beom gasped and met the fans' request for autographs and group photos, and left the Bernabeu with the help of stadium security.
Waiting for him outside the stadium were all kinds of media that were more crazy than the fans, Li Tongfan ran all the way to the place where he parked, and was angry to find that due to illegal parking, the two Audi Q 7 that he borrowed from his brother Li Tongxun had actually been dragged away by the traffic police, and a ticket was left in place...... Unable to escape, Li Tongfan was tragically overwhelmed by a group of shark-like reporters who smelled blood............ The next day, when the whole of Spain was still talking about the return of the madman Lee to the Bernabeu and Real Madrid finally reached the top of the league standings by two points, Lee Tongfan had already arrived in Milan, Italy!
Lao Li's target this time is the Argentine striker Hernan Giorgio Crespo, who is currently depressed at Inter Milan!
An Argentine man known as the greatest center forward of the Pampas after Batistuta!
As a pseudo-fan, the game that Lee Tong-fan had the most profound impact on Crespo was those two spectacular goals scored by the Argentine center forward for the Rossoneri AC Milan in the first half on the night of Istanbul!
Lifting weights like light, a stunning shot pierced the goal of Liverpool goalkeeper Dudek!
This white figure with long hair fluttering and a sword sealing his throat is really handsome!
However, the Argentine talented goalscorer suffered a sad experience, despite his outstanding performance, he did not stay in the Rossoneri as he wished, and after returning to his club Chelsea, he could not get the main position under the madman Mourinho, and after a year of travel, he came to Italy again and loaned to AC Milan's rival Inter Milan!
And in Inter Milan this season, although Crespo scored 4 goals in the league and 3 goals in the cup for the team, it is a pity that he did not get enough opportunities to play under the pressure of the three strikers of Ibrahimovic, Adriano and Cruz!
But even so, no one doubts Crespo's quality as a world-class goalscorer.
As a typical center forward, Crespo is good at his head and feet, and is also good at difficult and imaginative shots such as barbs and heel strikes!
In addition, the Argentine center's ability to play the ball is also very good!
Newcastle's Ameobi, Viduka and other high school forwards will definitely be purged next season, although Li Tongfan already has Owen and Ronaldo, plus the gradually growing little Gigi, but having Crespo such a tall and powerful center will undoubtedly make Newcastle's tactical routines a lot richer!
And next season the Magpies will have to fight on multiple fronts, and they must be made up of enough bench players!
The reason why Li Tongfan came to meet Crespo in person is to impress the Argentine talented goalscorer with his fame and sincerity, after all, Newcastle's attraction is still a little worse than that of other second-tier giants, and it is said that teams such as Sevilla, Roma and Fiorentina have already expressed interest in Crespo!
And the next facts proved that Li Tongfan's action in person really moved Crespo!
Originally, Argentina would never have considered Newcastle, but after scratching the man's three-inch tongue and spitting golden lotus and spitting about his ambitions and Newcastle's plans for next season, Crespo was obviously a little tempted and said that he was willing to consider it!
But where will Lao Li be satisfied with this answer?
So, the stuffy man patted his chest again and assured that he would be able to restore the Argentine center forward to the state of scoring goals at the peak of his former years, and he would definitely not be bad in terms of personal treatment...... In the end, Crespo was lame by Li Tongfan's "big fool", and agreed to Li Tongfan's invitation in a daze!
Li Tongfan left Milan City with a smile!
The next thing to do is to make an offer to Chelsea, the actual owner of Crespo! A little bit of a hassle, as Chelsea may refuse to sell to Newcastle due to the rivalry between the two teams, which will depend on Sir Hall's connections!
There shouldn't be any problems!
After separating from Crespo and his agent, Li Tongfan didn't even bother to eat dinner in Milan, and rushed to Germany by plane non-stop!
Because in Germany, there are the last two goals of Lao Li's trip to "kidnap" players!
