Chapter 617 Devil's Schedule, Real Madrid Meets Barcelona Again

After winning the Madrid derby, Real Madrid are well ahead of the table.

In the first half, Real Madrid dominated La Liga with a record of 18 wins and 1 draw.

In the next two games, Real Madrid continued their good momentum, winning Cadiz and Athletic Bilbao in succession, ending 2021 perfectly.

During this period, in the selection of the Golden Globe Awards, Rossi's votes were also far ahead of other players and won the Golden Ball Award.

This is also the first player to win this award for three consecutive seasons after Messi and Ronaldo.

Moreover, Rossi, who is only 27 years old, will have much more achievements in the future.

With the Golden Globe honor, Rossi returned to London for a vacation on Christmas Eve.

Christmas Eve is a traditional holiday for Westerners.

For the Cheng family, it's just an ordinary dinner with one more dish.

In a short period of time, Mrs. Cheng proposed Rosie's lifelong event.

He has been dating Pixie for 7 years, and although the two have seen each other less often, their relationship has always been very stable.

Pixie, who has entered the film and television, has not had any scandals.

And Rossi, who is the number one in world football, has not had lace news with models and nightclubs.

All this seems to be so wonderful, and the Spanish media even use the golden boy and girl to describe the two.

At the mention of this, Pixie's face turned red and she looked at Rosie shyly.

"I think it's time to take Pixie to meet your parents." Cheng Dong closed the book in his hand and put it aside.

Rosie also thought, after all, the two have been together for so long, and their parents have not met in a formal setting.

"I would like to, but my parents' jobs are not in London all year round, and I can't see them if I want to."

Mrs. Cheng said: "This is easy to do, I just talked to your mother on the phone last week, and they will go back to London around April, and they will have time to meet at that time." ”

This news made Rosie surprised and delighted.

"My dad him"

In order to play football, Rossi gave up the opportunity to study in London and went to Leicester University, which made his father angry.

"It's all a family, after so many years, it's time to disappear!"

Cheng Dong comforted: "Actually, your father occasionally asks me about you, but he has a good face, thinking that if he ignores you, his majesty as a father will be gone." ”

For his father, who still retains some traditional ideas in his bones, the young and vigorous Rossi will naturally not give in.

But now that he has established a business, he should let go of some paranoia and talk about it between father and son.

"Well, then aunt, you"

As soon as Cheng Tai saw Rosie's expression, he knew what he was thinking.

"Don't worry, I'll help you communicate. You kid, you haven't been worrying since you were a child. But finding a girlfriend is very much in line with my heart. ”

Pickie became even more shy when she heard this.

On the way home, Rossi took the initiative to talk about it.

"Pixie, you won't mind if it's been so long to see our parents!"

Pixie was generally aware of his family's affairs, and he didn't pay much attention to them.

And as a woman in the new era, she looks at some traditional concepts more casually.

"You haven't met my parents either, have you?" Pixie smiled and said, "But in the end, we all have to meet everyone's parents, since it is destined, why rush?" ”

Rosie was relieved by these words, and while waiting for the traffic light, he kissed Pixie's red lips.

This kiss can make Pixie angry, with her right hand on Rossi's chest, her legs also close in his direction, and her eyes are misty.

"Pixie, what about driving, let's go home, okay!"

It only took ten minutes for the sports car to return to the parking lot, and before the engine was turned off, Pixie had already kissed her.

"Didn't you say that, go home first!"

Pixie sat on Rossi's lap, put her hands on his shoulders, and said, "Isn't this parking lot our home?" ”

"That's right!" Rosie suddenly realized.

After a while, the sports car sounded the alarm.

After Christmas, Rossi, who had not been out of the house, finally took a flight back to Madrid.

Real Madrid's holiday season is very short, the rest of the squad is still enjoying the leisure time after Christmas, and Rossi has already started training at the training ground.

It has to do with Real Madrid's upcoming fixtures.

In January and February, in addition to league and cup matches, Real Madrid also has to participate in the Spanish Super Cup and Club World Cup, and the schedule is very stressful.

Carlo Ancelotti wants to help his players adjust through training during the holidays.

But in the first game after the New Year, Real Madrid lost.

Lost to the younger brother of the same city, Getafe.

Before the start of the game, Rossi was affected by the flu and hung up a waiver card, and Rodrigo started in his place.

Carlo Ancelotti wants to get off to a good start in a safe way.

However, the Real Madrid players were not excited enough in this round of the game, which in turn affected the state of the game.

On the other hand, Getafe first set up a 5-3-2 bus formation, and then took the initiative to confront, making the pace of the game fragmented.

In addition to Rossi, Vinicius is also unavailable due to injury.

Real Madrid's two wingers were inadequate in physical confrontation and inferior to Rossi in terms of small skills, making it difficult for Getafe to press aggressively.

In terms of the choice of three central defenders, Getafe used three tall central defenders to ensure frontal interception and high-altitude superiority.

But Real Madrid still found an opportunity in the positional battle.

When Getafe's two wing-backs returned to defence, the three midfielders alone could not cover the space in front of the defence, and Modric frequently used this to instigate attacks.

Unfortunately, the unlucky Real Madrid players are always a fraction of a second away from scoring.

Frequently wasting opportunities, the Real Madrid players were impetuous, but were counter-attacked by the opponent and scored a goal.

In the end, Real Madrid's unbeaten streak came to an end with a 1-0 defeat to Getafe in their first away game of the new year.

After this game, Real Madrid fans can't help but worry about whether the team will repeat the mistakes of last season, falling behind in a tight schedule and missing out on the defending league title.

In this regard, Ancelotti said in the post-match press conference that the serious consumption of the players' physical energy was the reason for the defeat.

In the next matches, Real Madrid will try to rotate the squad and reactivate the players' playing form.

Three days later, in the Copa del Rey, Ancelotti really rotated the lineup, Marcelo, Nacho, Camavinga, Isco, and Asensio all got the opportunity to start and played the whole game.

Rossi just came off the bench in the final 20 minutes to get his groove on the game.

At this time, Real Madrid led 1-0.

Watching Real Madrid's Copa del Rey game, you have to exclaim that the Copa del Rey is more difficult to play than the Champions League.

This is also an unsolved mystery for Real Madrid.

After Rossi came on the pitch, the team did not intend to attack aggressively, but used the pass to kill the game time.

It's completely different from the league and the Champions League.

Real Madrid, who don't pay enough attention to the Copa del Rey itself, is naturally bored during the game.

But Rossi scored anyway.

In the 88th minute, Real Madrid got a free kick opportunity in front.

Rossi's free-kick went through the wall and bounced off the inside of the post into the back of the net for his first Copa del Rey for Real Madrid.

In the end, Real Madrid won 2-0 and advanced to the round of 16 of the Copa del Rey.

With the Copa del Rey victory, the Real Madrid players gradually regained their form and continued to lead the table with a 5-1 home win over Valencia three days later.

Next, it's the Spanish Super Cup.

Real Madrid, Barcelona, Athletic Bilbao and Atletico Madrid are four teams competing for the Spanish Super Cup.

According to the competition arrangement, Real Madrid is the champion of the league, and the opponent is Athletic Bilbao, the runner-up of the Copa del Rey.

In the semifinals of the Spanish Super Cup, Real Madrid also eliminated Athletic Bilbao 2:0 and successfully advanced to the final.

Their opponent is their sworn enemy, Barcelona.

The National Derby, once again.
