Espanyol, who have not had the chance to play in Europe this season, have a relatively friendly schedule.

On the day after the match against Barcelona, Cruyff published an article in his column, analyzing in detail the reasons for Barcelona's defeat in this game:

"11-man against 11, Barcelona won technically and tactically, but they fell behind on the scoreboard.

"The reason why they are technically and tactically overwhelming is that Pep Guardiola's team is gorgeous, bold and executed. They created plenty of chances to score, just lacked a single goal. ”

"Barcelona have a lot of good players in their squad, as well as the top talent Messi, who is one of the best players La Masia has produced."

"It's a shame that another talented player from La Masia is in the opposition team."

"When in the scuffle, Levi was calmer and more efficient than everyone on the pitch, so the Spaniard took just one chance to score first..."

'Then he took two chances in a row before the end and scored two goals in a row with an incredible shot, and I can say that even when I was on the pitch, I couldn't have found a more reasonable way to deal with it.

The more the media looks, the more wrong it becomes, what are you analyzing the reasons for the victory?

Or blow Levi.

Apart from a few references to Pochettino's spatial constraints on Barca, Cruyff begins to devote a great deal of space to Analysing Levy's role in the squad in the second half of the article.

"He Levi perfectly inherits the spirit of Dutch football, and we can see that he plays the role of initiating or remediating in the opponent's attacking rounds, and is involved in almost every attacking opportunity in the whole game."

"When defending, he spared no effort to run, press, and even settle into his own penalty area to make up for defense, he perfectly implemented the tactical theory of 'full offense and full defense', and used his own connection to integrate the team's offense and defense into an organic whole."

At the end of the article, Cruyff gives Levi the highest praise.

"He is the perfect successor to the Rinus-Michels tactics and my successor. I'm sure he'll bring his talent to the Dutch team, as well as..."

"The best club for him."

Originally, the media looked reasonable.

After all, Cruyff, in addition to being the godfather of Barcelona, is also the greatest star of the Dutch team, which can also be understood as the favor of the new star of the national team.

But the last sentence is a little meaningful.

What is the best club for him?

Far away in Manchester, Ferguson sneezed, and the piece of meat he released was already surrounded by wolves.

...

After a big fight, the whole team was given two days off.

During this period, Levi, who became more famous, received a new commercial endorsement from the well-known Spanish brand ZARA.

At the same time, according to Mendes, several top sports brands have reached out to him to negotiate individual sponsorships, including Nike, Adidas and Puma.

It's just that the exact amount and duration of the sponsorship have not yet been negotiated, especially Adidas has shown the most sincerity, but they want to sign a one-time contract for at least five years.

Of course, this is not the kind of lifetime sponsorship contract that Ronaldo and Messi signed with Nike Adi respectively in the future, and Levi's fame is far from that extent.

Also, after learning that Levi's only car is a Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG, Mercedes-Benz also has the intention of cooperating.

Mendez, on the other hand, believes that Levi's commercial value will continue to rise, and does not recommend that Levi 'sell' himself so quickly.

Mendes on the other end of the phone said excitedly:

"What an interesting and priceless coincidence, your name LEVY has the word LV in the spelling, and I'm sure soon Louis Vuitton won't be able to sit still."

Well, he understands marketing.

...

In the meantime, Barcelona once again won the Champions League against Shakhtar Donetsk in controversial fashion.

In the 87th minute of the game, Barcelona, who was still behind by one goal, took advantage of this opportunity when one of the Shakhtar's players was injured and needed to be treated by the team doctor, and kicked the ball out of the sideline, and equalized by assisting Messi.

The Ukrainians believe that Barcelona should take the initiative to return the ball to Shakhtar instead of continuing the attack.

This is not the case with the Barcelona players, Bojan believes that the ball is kicked out of the sideline by the opponent's big foot, and it is understandable for Barcelona to attack after winning the ball.

"It was a legitimate goal," Bojan said. The player thought that the injured teammate was on the sidelines, so he kicked the ball off the sideline, but he didn't see that his teammate was back on the field. ”

A few minutes later, Messi scored again to equalize and turn the game around.

Combined with the Catalan derby that happened some time ago, there was a fierce scolding war between various media.

...

And in the preparation day after day, the time is also fast approaching the day of the game at the Bernabeu.

Northeast of Madrid, Valdebebas training base.

After training, Real Madrid manager Schuster summoned his players to the tactics room.

'Originally, the Spaniards were not to be feared by us, they haven't won at the Bernabeu for more than a decade.

Schuster smiled slyly and made a light-hearted joke.

The Real Madrid generals sitting in front of them burst into hearty laughter, which is the pride of Real Madrid.

But then Schuster changed his tune.

The projection device began to play some footage of the game and specific analysis data.

It was Levi who scored the last two goals in the last game.

Robben whistled, drawing Schuster's displeasure.

'But now they have a new attacking weapon and I need you to remember that the Spaniards have at least one good player who can stand up to you.

'He's the tactical heart of the Spaniards and you have to be 100 per cent in your face against him, especially the defenders.

"He's going to be a tough opponent to defend against if necessary..."

Pepe, who had dark eyebrows and fierce eyes, scratched his head and said with a rough smile:

"Knock him out?"

"Tactical fouls are fine."

Schuster emphasized: "Don't overdo it, he's only an eighteen-year-old after all. ”

"Levi is the person the boss has a crush on, maybe the winter window will come here and sit with us."

Robben's words aroused the curiosity of Real Madrid's teammates, and Van der Vaart also nodded.

There have been some rumours about Real Madrid's interest in him since then, but from the mouth of Levi's national team team-mate Robben, it sounds somewhat credible.

"How do you know?"

Sneijder, who hadn't met Levi yet, was also curious.

Robben shook his head, it was hard to say that he was instructed by the head coach.

I got in touch with the opposing player's player privately.

When this word spread, he could imagine how the British media would scold him.

"Something that hasn't been determined yet, don't go around publicizing it just yet, isn't the media infiltrating our locker room enough?"

Schuster was very unhappy with Robben's big mouth.

The Spanish media's pervasive infiltration of lace news, dressing room disputes and even tactics has always been a nuisance for them.

In the end, Schuster decided to lift the morale of the army again.

He released an interview with Levi by Roncello, a reporter from the Ace newspaper after the Catalan derby.

"I've always thought that the fans at the Bernabeu are the most discerning fans in the world, so I want to satisfy their appetite."

"I hope to win the applause of the Bernabeu fans."

Levi on the other side of the screen stared at the camera, his eyes full of confidence.

"Woohoo!"

All the Real Madrid players present let out a meaningful howl almost at the same time, and the kid was too loud.

Do you know what it means to win the applause of the Bernabeu fans?

Many of them have not necessarily won the applause of the fans during their time at Real Madrid.

The boos won quite a few.

"Teach him a lesson."

The hot-tempered Ramos touched his hair and said with a smile.

"Let him know that he should have respect for the old-timers."

Heinze, who played for Manchester United for three years, also said.

...

After training, Levi took a shower, went to the club's cafeteria for a nutritious meal, and then simply sat in the lounge and took out his laptop to surf the Internet.

I opened the MSN software on my computer, and soon after that, a video chat window popped up on the interface.

"I heard that you are going to come to the Bernabeu to teach us a lesson?"

On the other end of the video, Arjan Robben raised his eyebrows and teased.

Van der Vaart also laughed, and it seemed that the group was determined to make fun of Levi.

There were several other members of the Dutch Gang beside him, several of whom Levi had never spoken to.

The Dutch gang big brother Fanny Struyd.

Black winger Drenthe.

Real Madrid midfielder Sneijder.

"Apologize now, we can have scored two fewer goals by then,"

Robben said, the man behind him giggling.

It was at Real Madrid that the gang had to unite in the face of great pressure from the Spanish gang.

If this is in the national team, it is absolutely impossible to have such a harmonious scene.

At this time, Casillas, with a sad face, walked into the dressing room and frowned at the group of Dutchmen who were 'collaborating with the enemy' at this time.

He is also on a constant courtship offensive against Sara Caponero.

I just took advantage of the interval to make a flirtatious phone call, but it shows that the other party is on the phone.

On the other end of the screen, Levi's mobile phone on the desktop suddenly rang.

"I'm sorry, I'll answer the phone first."

Levi picked up his phone and looked at it, then hurried into the distance.

The sharp-eyed Robben saw the notes on the screen at a glance.

Then the heckling began.

"Oh, Levi is starting to play as a hostess, hahaha."

"It's going to be your first step to becoming a star."

Fanny couldn't help but laugh and added such a sentence.

...

"Lee, remember what we talked about?"

On the other end of the phone, there was Sara Caponero's delicate voice.

It was as if a cat's fluff was scratching him through the earpiece.

"Of course, how could I forget."

Levi smiled.

"Can you advance the time a few days earlier, let's say you just arrived in Madrid in the evening?"

Sara Caponero on the other end of the phone has her own careful thoughts, rushing to catch the heat of the Catalan derby before the match against Real Madrid.

It can be regarded as a preview report of this match with Real Madrid.

If the Spaniards loses by then, then her guest on the next episode of the show will choose Casillas.

The latter will certainly not refuse.

But unexpectedly, Levi rejected her on the grounds of preparing for training.

"Well, I'll go to the locker room to interview you then, don't turn me away."

Sara Caponero is interested in flirting with this handsome 'brother' who is a few years younger than her.

...

"Sara Caponero? Really? This kid is really young..."

"What a young man is promising, this is called Yanfu."

Casillas, who didn't know the details, frowned, and a strong desire for competition surged in his heart.

Obviously, I came first.
