Chapter 471: The Sustenance of the Fans

readx;

When Wang Li opened his eyes again, it was already past seven o'clock the next morning. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

He got up, gave Angela a soft kiss on the forehead, got dressed, and walked out of the house alone, and then trotted to a small restaurant. When he walked in the door, there was a bearded middle-aged man in the restaurant who was constantly busy, and when he saw Wang Li walking in the door, he immediately put down the broom and greeted him.

"Hehe, it's so early again."

Wang Li smiled, took a seat at the window, and said, "Uncle McMar, as usual." ”

"Okay, soon." With that, McMar walked towards the back hall.

This is an Arabic restaurant, and Wang Li has come here every day for the past month to have some breakfast, and the occasional change of taste will also make the whole day feel good. The owner of this restaurant is called Jones. Maimar is of mixed Arab and English descent.

Growing up in Madrid, McMar is also Spanish and a pure Real Madrid fan.

When Wang Li came here for the first time, Mai Mal was simply stunned, he hurriedly asked Wang Li for an autograph and a group photo, but as Wang Li came every day, these were no longer familiar with it, but he still always gave Wang Li some discounts.

"Alright, Alan slow down."

After waiting for a while, McMar placed a tray on the table, then walked straight to the door and hung a sign that said 'closed'.

"What's wrong? Uncle McMar, not opening today? ”

Mai Mal didn't answer, he just walked over lightly, sat opposite Wang Li, and said with a smile: "Originally, I didn't plan to open today, but you have been coming every day recently, and I will open in the morning, haha." ”

Wang Li nodded and asked, "What about today?" ”

"That's right, I'm going to the Bernabeu."

As he spoke, McMar took out a ticket from his trouser pocket and said, "Look, I have already bought the ticket." I was going to watch a game, and there wasn't much to help me with, so it was closed. ”

"But didn't you say you would never go to the Bernabeu to watch a game?"

Hearing this, McMar groaned, looked up at the ceiling, and thought about it before saying, "My father is an Englishman."

Wang Li nodded, he had heard about this a long time ago.

McMar ignored Wang's expression, he seemed to be caught up in the memory, "He used to be an Arsenal fan, and I was a Madrid fan through and through. ”

'We live together in Madrid and my dad never takes me to the game, he says that a true fan has to be loyal to his beloved team and that he still loves Arsenal even if he's in a foreign country, so he doesn't go to the Bernabeu.

'He used to say that Arsenal are a team a hundred times better than Real Madrid and I always argue with him.

"I complained to him when I was a kid and wanted him to take me to the ball once, and one time he finally agreed. It was a nice day, but when we turned a corner, a car came by, and he shoved me away and just walked away."

Speaking of this, although Maimar did not shed tears, anyone who hears this kind of story can imagine the sadness of the person concerned.

Wang Li was just about to persuade a few words, but McMar smiled before continuing: "So, I never go to the Bernabeu to watch the game, but this time is different, this time the opponent is Arsenal, it is my father's beloved team, I think Real Madrid is better than Arsenal, even if he dies." ”

As he spoke, he stood up and patted Wang Li on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Allen, you have to help me prove this, you can't lose today!" ”

Wang Li also stood up, held Mai Mal's hand, nodded and said firmly: "Don't worry, Uncle Mai Maar, we will win." ”

"How was your sleep yesterday, Alan?"

When Wang Li came to the club, most of the players had not yet arrived at the training ground, and Carlo had already come to the sidelines, he saw Wang Li immediately walk over and asked with concern.

"Not bad, Coach." Wang Li replied.

"Hmm." Carlo nodded, "That's good." ”

Wang Li is Real Madrid's number one star and Carlo's biggest reliance on the game, and Carlo certainly has to care about his condition.

Since coaching Real Madrid, Carlo has always relied on Wang Li as his biggest support, and has never refused Wang Li's request in the team, although this seems a little incredible in a giant team, but as an interim head coach, Carlo's treatment in the team is probably the lowest, and the popularity is also the lowest, and he simply does not have enough prestige to suppress these stars.

Wang Li is his dependence, only if Wang Li supports him, then other players will support him.

'Do you have any thoughts on the game against Arsenal?'

Hearing this question, Wang Li was stunned, the afternoon was the game between the two teams, and the team's tactics had been arranged the day before yesterday, and now it is a bit redundant to ask this kind of question.

However, Wang Li thought about it and said: "Just fight against them, I believe that Real Madrid will definitely win." ”

He has this self-confidence, even if the opponent's offensive ability is strong, but as long as Real Madrid lets go of playing, Arsenal's goals cannot surpass Real Madrid, which is a kind of confidence from the heart.

Carlo nodded, the tactics he arranged are the same, as the top team in the world, Real Madrid has so many forward superstars, and the attack will not be afraid of Arsenal at all, however, he is still faintly worried in his heart, because Arsenal can't not know this.

But hearing Wang Li also see it this way, Carlo's worries eased slightly.

If they want to try to knock out Arsenal, Real Madrid will have to get a certain advantage at home, which can be two goals, three goals, which is a must. If it comes to the second leg in London, it will be difficult for Real Madrid to score so many goals away from home, and Arsenal at home is likely to come back from defeat to win, which is the situation that Carlo is most worried about.

For Arsenal, he, like some fans, only understands some expressions, has never played against this team, and he does not have a general idea in his mind.

After all, he has never played against an English team.

Speaking of which, his coaching qualifications are too short and his promotion is a little too fast, but despite this, Carlo still wants Real Madrid to achieve good results, firstly for his own career, and secondly for a love.

He is also a real Madrid fan through and through, having been in charge of Real Madrid's second team for so many years, and he has long fallen in love with this team.

Carlo has long thought about it, if Real Madrid can't stay next season, he will continue to coach Real Madrid's second team in the Spanish second division until he is able to be qualified for Real Madrid's first team, which is his goal and his professional coaching life.

And for this game, Arsenal must attack, they must get away goals if they want to advance, if they are beaten by Real Madrid 2:0, 3:0, even if the second game is held in London, they have little hope of victory.

After all, they don't have the ability to completely defend Real Madrid's attack, such as the brunette kid in front of them.

"Playing against each other, then we have to score more goals, Allen, let's try to score." Carlo thought about it and patted Wang Li on the shoulder and said.

Wang Li smiled and nodded, this was the second time he had heard it this morning

When the players came to the training ground one after another, Wang Li had already started his own training.

Wang Li's training is different from that of ordinary players, Taoist exercises have always been health-based, due to the cultivation of small Wuxianggong, his physical fitness is much stronger than that of ordinary players, at the beginning, he also followed the team to do some physical training, but after the small Wuxiang Gong, this physical training has no effect on him at all.

So, he started his own training.

When the players came to the field, he had been running fast for more than ten minutes in a row, and then he came to the sidelines to wipe his sweat.

"Warm-up complete!" Wang Li chuckled.

Carlos stepped forward and said, "Alan, doing such a vigorous exercise before the game will affect the state, take a break." ”

"Hehe, it's okay."

"Ignore him, he's a pervert, a madman!" Ronaldo walked over and said, "Seriously, Alan, why do you never feel tired?" ”

Wang Li shook his head and said, "I'm very tired now." ”

"Are you still tired? Then why did you run for so long? ”

"Because exercise is good for your health."

Wang Li glared at Ronaldo, didn't say anything, just sat on the grass and wiped his sweat, running for 10 minutes in a row, still a little tired.

"Alan, it's up to you for my goals!"

With a 'cute' smile on his face, Ronaldo sat next to Wang Li, who recently lost his position as the big brother of Brazil due to Robinho's rapid rise, so he also wanted to score in this important game to prove his strength.

"Don't worry, there will be a chance."

Since Carlo took charge of Real Madrid, Real Madrid's good form is amazing, and some players who have little confidence in this season have also shouted out the declaration of winning the championship in front of the media, which is an attitude to show Real Madrid's confidence to the outside world, and it is also a confidence revealed from the heart.

For many of Real Madrid's players, the team's results have always been bad, but everyone is not unconvinced.

And now, they've found the confidence that they're going to get better and better, and they're going to do better and better

At half past one in the afternoon, the small square in front of the Bernabeu stadium was already packed.

Many fans have been gathering around the stadium since the morning, waiting for the moment when the stadium opens to enter the stadium to watch the game. This game is the first Champions League knockout game that Carlo has faced since taking charge of Real Madrid, and it is also the game that Real Madrid fans have been waiting for for a long time.

Last season, Real Madrid's elimination in the round of 16 was a pain in the hearts of many fans, it was the era of Luxemburg, Luxemborg coached Real Madrid for a whole year, and now it is Carlo's turn to face it all.

Will this rookie head coach have better results than Luxemborg?

Can he take Real Madrid far in the Champions League?

Nobody knows that, so the fans need to watch it all with their own eyes, cheer for Real Madrid and give themselves a spiritual confidence, and the fans also need a confidence to support the team.

When the Real Madrid players arrived at the Bernabeu by bus, many TV reporters had already started broadcasting live, and this game was the first of the Champions League round of 16 finals, and it was also one of the three matches that attracted much attention.

Facing the old rival Arsenal, the once beloved team, what can this brunette do now?

Will he continue to be so strong against Arsenal last season?

How many goals will he score in the game?

Everything is a concern for the fans, and various TV stations began to interview the mood of the fans at the Bernabeu at 12 noon.

'I know Allen, he comes to my shop every day for breakfast and I believe he can play well and lead Real Madrid to victory. This is McMar, who arrived at the Bernabeu Stadium when he left the store early and was one of the first fans to arrive.

But few of the fans around him knew him, because he never came to watch the game.

However, this does not affect the surrounding Real Madrid fans to accept him, McMar is wearing a set of standard Real Madrid home team jerseys, Nike's new commemorative version of "Allen Shoes", holding the Real Madrid team flag in his hand, and the Real Madrid team emblem is painted on his face.

In an interview with BBC TV reporters, McMar did not look nervous at all, and he said on behalf of the fans: "We are the most loyal Real Madrid fans, we are here to cheer for Real Madrid, I believe that the team will win the final victory, at the moment of the goal, we will drink beer and cheer for the team!" ”

When the fans entered the stadium, the players of both teams were also walking out of the stadium, they had finished their warm-up training, but they were back in the locker room to prepare for the official game.

When Wang Li walked to the front of the players' tunnel, he saw McMar looking for a seat on it, he waved his hand towards the stands and shouted, "McMar, here!" ”

Uncle McMar turned his head to look at Wang Li, smiled at him, held the flag in both hands, and shouted, "Come on!" ”

But after saying that, he felt that his voice was not enough, and then he immediately waved his hand to the person next to him and signaled to shout together, so before the game started, a shout sounded in the stands: "Allen, come on!!" ”

Wang Li waved his hand again, smiled, put his hands to his mouth, calmed his internal breath and suddenly burst out, and shouted: "Thank you, I will score!" ”

An earth-shattering shout even overshadowed the cheers of the fans.

Hearing this, the fans immediately happily talked to each other - "Allen was talking to me just now. ”

'He's saying to me that he's going to score, and I hear that clearly.'

"Maybe it's shouting at everyone, Alan definitely doesn't know me"

It wasn't until Wang Lidu entered the players' tunnel that these fans reacted and said in surprise: "Allen's voice is really powerful"

But in fact, Wang used a kind of exercise method similar to the roar of the lion in Buddhism, and he just burst out into a shout, he did not have the Shaolin lion roar exercise method, but the sound he made was not lethal, but it was enough to raise the volume for many people to hear

In the anticipation of the fans, the game is finally about to begin.

For the old fox Wenger, guessing Real Madrid's tactics couldn't be simpler, although Carlo did not announce the starting formation before the game, but for the way Real Madrid played in this game, he still guessed ** not far from ten.

Arsenal are also good at attacking, and it can be said that in the Premier League, Arsenal are the best attacking team.

Their attack does not have the style of Barcelona's Spanish artistic football, but the attack inherent in the Premier League, but their speed is faster and more explosive, of course, compared to Barcelona, Arsenal's attack will seem to be a little lacking.

That's how the two compare.

With Arsenal's attacking ability, as long as Real Madrid does not use defensive tactics, Wenger is confident that the team can score at the Bernabeu, but he is not confident that Arsenal can score more than Real Madrid, after all, he has not had much confidence in the team's backline.

Now Arsenal's backline is completely supported by Campbell alone, and most of the other players are young players, with okay strength but lack of experience, which makes Arsenal's defense always have all kinds of problems.

And this time, facing Real Madrid, facing that difficult brunette boy, Wenger really didn't have much confidence.

But in terms of tactics, he is still confident, at least he feels that with his own experience, he is much stronger than Real Madrid's rookie coach, so when the two teams stand in a good position on the field, Wenger is not too anxious, whether it is the team's tactics or the ability to adapt on the spot, he is in the chest, but whether he can win or not depends on the performance of the players, as well as some luck components.

After all, football is not a directional game

"Beep"

With the referee's whistle, the game finally began.

Arsenal won the kick-off, and in the centre circle, Thierry Henry pushed the ball to the side and rushed towards the Real Madrid half alone.

The ball fell a few times at the Arsenal back and then passed to Cesc Fabregas. Many Real Madrid players on the pitch have their eyes on Cesc Fabregas, a Spaniard, but at just 18 years old, he seems to have achieved success at Arsenal, at least he has achieved a regular position at Arsenal and is still the heart of Arsenal's attack.

Before the start of the game, manager Carlo asked his players to focus on Cesc Fabregas, which is naturally due to Fabregas's outstanding performance in recent Arsenal games.

So, Robinho stepped forward steadily, trying to steal.

But Cesc Fabregas didn't stick to the ball at all, he only made a one-two with his team-mates, and he went straight past Robinho, and then, under the surprised gaze of the player next to him, he made a long pass to the left - it was Pire!!

No one expected that just after the opening, Cesc Fabregas passed such a precise long pass, after Pire received the ball, Real Madrid's right-back leaked, which made Pire easily take two steps forward, and then passed the ball to the edge of the penalty area.

Reyes suddenly appeared there, and as soon as he flicked his calf to meet the ball, the ball went straight into the penalty area and rolled towards Henry.

Henry's back-heeled swing was in front of him, and he followed up with a direct big volley, which Casillas only made a gesture to the left - and the ball flew easily into the far corner.

In the opening 27 seconds, Arsenal led 1-0
