Chapter 622: A belated apology

In the first leg of the Champions League 1/8 finals, Paris Saint-Germain relied on Mbappe's penalty area to make a point, and Neymar won 1:0 at home against Real Madrid.

In this game, Real Madrid's performance was remarkable.

Consecutive back-to-back away games, Real Madrid, with serious physical exhaustion, used defense to deal with the sharp attacks of Grand Paris.

Carlo Ancelotti's tactics were actually correct, and the Real Madrid players were very resolute in their execution.

At one point, Rossi dropped back to the left-back position, getting involved in defending, rarely getting past half-time.

Such an aggrieved kick made him hold back the fire in his belly.

And just when Real Madrid thought they were going to take away a draw away from home, the young Mbappe came out.

He forced his way through Carvajal in his prime in the box and fouled him for a penalty.

Brazilian star Neymar stood calmly in front of twelve yards and scored the only goal of the game in one fell swoop.

The score of 0:1 is still acceptable for Real Madrid.

After a weekend of rotation, the Real Madrid players were rested and ready to meet the challenges of Paris.

On the morning of the match, the Real Madrid players had their final training session at the training base.

"Carol, have you noticed that Luo is in a state today, very excited, and even a little overdone!"

Pintus was leading the Real Madrid players through training when he spotted an unusual Rossi.

After being "hidden" from the Copa del Rey, Rossi's performance in the league, Club World Cup or the first leg of the Champions League was average.

He has not scored in six consecutive games and is in the longest goal drought of his career.

In these six games, except for the first leg against Grand Paris, which required the sacrifice of offense in exchange for defense, the remaining five games, Rossi was the main attacking core.

Somehow, his offensive aggressiveness has subsided, and he has more cooperation with his teammates.

He has provided assists in five of those six games, and from that point of view, he has not been bad.

Carlo Ancelotti had also noticed Rossi's anomaly before, but he didn't pay much attention to it, believing that this was a period of slump that professional players experience.

But Pintus's words made him think otherwise.

"Old friend, you mean, Luo has emotions?"

Giving up the Copa del Rey was forced by Ancelotti to do so due to the situation.

At that time, Rossi warmed up on the sidelines for 40 minutes without playing, and many media outlets thought Ancelotti's approach was biased.

And in the strong dialogue with Grand Paris, he put Rossi in the defense, which is difficult for a striker with a strong desire to attack.

That's why Rosie is somewhat emotional under the influence of these two things.

Pintus held his mouth, shrugged his shoulders, and said, "I don't know if he has emotions, but he is very calm now, like a man-eating beast." ”

Ancelotti closed the notebook and said with a smile: "I understand, at noon, I will have a good chat with him." ”

Due to the evening matches, the Real Madrid players will have lunch and lunch breaks at the training base after the morning training sessions, and will relax in the afternoon with various recreational activities.

As one of Europe's top clubs, Real Madrid's training centre is 40 times the size of the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium, with two natural pitches and is the main place for players to train.

The training center is equipped with a player's dormitory, each player's dormitory is not only a single room, but also equipped with a TV, sofa, bathtub and viewing balcony, which can be described as a five-star configuration.

Gyms and recreational facilities are also essential.

Swimming pools, basketball courts, and billiard courts are all available for players to relax after training.

After the lunch break, the Real Madrid players come to the recreation room to choose their favorite items.

It is worth mentioning that if the training center does not have the recreational facilities that the players want, as long as the players bring it up to the logistics department, the equipment will appear in the recreation room the next day.

I have to say that Real Madrid can become one of the most desirable clubs for players all over the world, and it naturally has its unique charm.

"Luo, come on?"

Carlo Ancelotti saw Rossi wandering in front of the billiards, so he stepped forward to invite.

"My skills are actually okay!"

In the face of Rossi's slightly hesitant gaze, Ancelotti repeatedly emphasized that his level was okay.

As one of the origins of billiards in the UK, Rossi has been exposed to it since he was a child, so when Ancelotti made an invitation, he hesitated.

"Yes, sir!"

Rossi accepted the invitation, chose a club with Ancelotti, and humbly said, "Sir, you kick off first!" ”

Carlo Ancelotti flicked his shoulders and after a powerful shot, the number 2 ball rolled into the left middle pocket.

"Hehe, good luck!"

Rosie raised an eyebrow.

Judging from the kick-off ball, An Fat is not a fat man who doesn't understand the ball.

Subsequently, An Pang began to lay out slowly, striking accurately, and the balls on the table decreased one by one.

After a while, all the trumpet balls were in the pocket, and only the black No. 8 ball remained.

One shot clear!

Is this called technology?

Rosie instantly had the desire to go home immediately.

"It's your turn, Luo!"

Soon, the staff set the table again.

Rossi also exploded the ball violently, hitting the number 9 into the middle pocket on the teeoff.

Then, Rossi made a clean stroke, hit the big ball into the pocket, and then violently pulled the rod to score the number 8.

The same shot cleared.

Ancelotti smiled and said, "Go on!" ”

Subsequently, the two did not give in to each other, took turns to win, and soon came to the 9th game.

This time, An Fat's tee shot was slightly less powerful and failed to score, and Rossi had a chance to attack.

Rosie, who is strong, bursts the pole, and the crisp sound of "answer" comes from the table.

In the last ball, after Rossi completed the goal, the white ball did not come to the intended position, and there was a green ball between the black ball.

It is difficult to score the black ball with the reflection and jump ball, so Rossi chooses to make a safe shot and land the white ball on the baseline to increase the difficulty.

After An Fat saw it, he smiled, and pushed the ball into the middle pocket with a light push.

As soon as the game was broken, An Pang calmly counterattacked, scored the balls one by one, and took the lead again.

"Don't fight, I'm older, I'm a little tired!" An Fat wiped his sweat and sat on a chair to drink.

By the time I got to the tee-off, I didn't play?

Is this a scoundrel?

Rosie was a little shameful about Ann's fat behavior.

The fat man can't seem to afford to lose.

"If you continue to fight, you will definitely win, and you will let me, an old man!"

Rossi doesn't have a black line, the other party says so, and if you are entangled in the victory or defeat, it is your own fault.

"Actually, you could have won that game just now."

After a short break, An Fat made an analysis of the game just now.

"I made a mistake on the tee, it would have been a good opportunity for you. You took most of your chances, but you were a little impatient with the last ball. ”

Rossi admits that if the last ball had been softer in terms of handling, it would never have been the same as before.

"So, if you want this kind of tug-of-war, whoever can calm down will be able to see the situation more clearly and win the final victory."

An Pang patted Rosie on the shoulder and said, "You're just too impatient, and you can't wait to vent all your dissatisfaction." ”

Rossi knew Ancelotti was banging herself.

To be honest, the King's Cup was "refrigerated", and he was indeed a little unhappy.

Because there is a clear chance to win, why would you choose such a way?

The media can say that Real Madrid gave up the cup for the league and the Champions League.

But the Real Madrid players in the game don't want to lose a single game.

But Ancelotti has to think big.

Due to the squandering of a shot by Mbappe in the summer window, Real Madrid was unable to add reinforcements to the front line, and with the current depth of the bench, it simply cannot support the third-line operation.

In addition, the two major competitions of the Spanish Super Cup and the Club World Cup are concentrated in the winter break, and the intensive schedule is replaced by Barcelona or Bayern at the peak, and it is difficult to achieve the results of the "six crowns".

After figuring this out, Rossi finally asked, "Then if you insist on giving up the Copa del Rey, why do you want me to warm up?" ”

Ancelotti's expression became a little complicated, sighed, and said, "Luo, I'll be honest with you." I don't really want to give up the Copa del Rey. ”

"My plan was that if I could get into extra time, I would definitely send you out."

"But we couldn't stand the pressure at the last minute and lost."

"So, I'm very sorry!"
