43. Football? Crazy Daddy (20)
As the Champions League group stage day approached, Gerrard's mood became more and more irrepressibly nervous because the media watched the excitement and did not think it was a big deal.
When he is outside, he can also disguise himself as a calm appearance, calmly dealing with the gazes and side knocks of all walks of life. But when he returned home, he couldn't control his emotions by chattering.
At this time, Legato became his best listener and most assured listener.
To outsiders, Gerald is an extremely conceited and confident person, and the classic phrase "God, God after me" is always mentioned repeatedly, but no one knows that in fact, this conceited gentleman also has times when he is not confident.
If it weren't for that, I'm afraid Lian Yin wouldn't be able to see him at this moment like an old man in his seventies and eighties.
Even the empty nest system, which had been silent for a long time, could no longer remain silent, and sighed at Lian Yin: "Baby, your dad is going crazy about the rhythm." According to research, a man of your father's age has not been able to vent his physiology for a long time, and his psychology has been in a state of anxiety and depression for a long time, and it is easy to be life-threatening if he continues like this. As a family member, you have to take good care of your father. ”
Lian Yin was stunned for a moment, and was naturally worried about Gerald, so he asked the system: "How should I take care of it?" She simply thought that since the system warned her, it could also tell her how to get rid of Gerald's nervousness.
But the system said casually: "Baby, are you asking me?" I don't know. ”
Lian Yin said, "Then can you check?" When he went to the last world, the system said that he could look up and download materials online. ”
The system said: "Oh, it looks like the system in your last world talked to you a lot!" ”
Legato ignored the strange-sounding words of the system, and was all concerned about Gerald's situation, "Can you help me check?" ”
The system simply replied, "I can't find it." "What I just said was all nonsense." ”
Lian Yin was speechless to the system.
The system was silent for two seconds, and then said again: "Child, you usually have to care more about the lonely and widowed elderly. Otherwise, what I just said is very likely to happen. ”
Legato: "......"
After listening to Gerald's babbling for a while, Lian Yin simply interrupted him, got up from the sofa and said, "I'm going to ask for leave from school, and on the day of the game, I'll go to the scene to cheer for you." "Because Inter's first match against Barcelona was played on a weekday and again in Barcelona, Lien Yin had to take a leave of absence.
Gerald's mind was instantly swept away by Lienyin, and he paused for a moment, unable to remember what he was worried and nervous about just now, and looked at Lienyin and asked, "What did you say?" You're going to the site? Going to Barcelona? ”
Liento said yes, she's going to Barcelona.
Gerald glanced at her, and his first reaction was to refuse. Barcelona is not in Italy, it is from the Apennine Peninsula to the Iberian Peninsula, and there is a Mediterranean Sea in between.
But Lian Yin had already made a plan, and of course he would not give him a chance to say no, he looked into Gerald's eyes and said, "No matter what happens, I want to be by your side as soon as possible." If you win the competition, I will be the first to share your success and send you my most sincere congratulations. ”
I have to say that Lianyin's words really entered Gerald's heart. She deliberately did not mention the loss of the game, but only said that she won the game, which gave Gerrard great encouragement and made him reconsider whether he should agree to go to Barcelona with Lien.
……
After the media has built up a lot of momentum for Gerrard and Dino, the Champions League group stage has finally officially begun.
The Iberian Peninsula is the second largest peninsula in Europe, and most of the island's land is Spanish territory, with only a small part of the southwest corner belonging to Portugal. Barcelona, known as the Pearl of Iberia, is located in the northeast of the Iberian Peninsula, bordering the blue Mediterranean Sea.
The beautiful Barcelona has become more and more charming because the Barcelona team has become more and more active on the football stage in recent years. Every year, it attracts countless tourists to enjoy the Mediterranean sunshine, and many people even travel thousands of miles to Barcelona to watch a match between Inter and Barcelona in these days.
Even if it's just a Champions League group stage.
Because it's not just a group stage, it's a derby between coaches.
The first derby between the two in charge.
However, when it comes to a competitive game that rises to the level of a derby, the atmosphere of the game is more lively than that of the players, whether it is the players or the fans. It is also more talked about and concerned about.
The day before the start of the game, Gerrard arrived in Barcelona with all the Inter players. Lian Yin also walked with Gerald's side.
The team had just stepped into the arrivals hall of the airport, where countless media were already crouching, and when Gerrard appeared, the cameras and microphones were pointed at him, and the first topic of the interview was the same, "What did you think of the first meeting with Barcelona coach Dino?" It is reported that you and Dino have been friends since the time of Barcelona, and now that you are each your own master, has your friendship been affected? ”
Friend or foe? This is the news headline that the media specially chose for Gerrard and Dino after confirming the Champions League schedule.
Gerald raised his eyebrows in the face of a lot of questions, and after thinking for a while, he chose to keep silent, and only said: "Any related questions, please put all the relevant questions in the group interview, and I will talk to you at that time." Now I'm a little tired and my players are a little bit tired and we want to get a good rest, thank you. He also made a gesture of please, then ignored the reporters and walked straight to the reception bus that stopped outside the airport.
After a good night's rest, the next afternoon, the bus carrying the Inter players drove to the Camp Nou, the home of the Barcelona team.
The journey from Inter's hotel to Camp Nou is not too long, and it may not be possible to calculate the exact time, but Gerrard knows it because he knows the city so well.
Looking at the familiar street scene outside the car window, Gerald was a little nostalgic and a little confused for a while, unsure that many years had really passed, as if he was still living in the city yesterday.
As the bus approached the main road at Camp Nou, the crowds on both sides of the avenue erupted with people calling Gerrard's name, which also managed to attract Gerrard's attention.
Gerrard looked out and saw that most of the people who were calling him were Inter fans, and perhaps his fans.
But no matter which side of the fan is, at such a moment, in such a place, being called like this, Gerrard's mood suddenly improved to heaven.
The little translator who returned to the city many years ago is no longer a dispensable little translator, but the coach of a rival team, which is a bit of a homecoming.
