The calendar has turned to the last month of 2011.

After more than half a month of rest, Su Changwei has already had his plaster removed and can walk freely, but it will take another month to resume vigorous exercise.

Therefore, he is still unable to train with the team. He can only exercise upper body strength in the gym with other injured teammates, or walk slowly around the entire training base.

Real Madrid's entire training base covers an area of ​​more than 1.2 million square meters, equivalent to 160 standard football fields. Although the first team also trains here, as a player in the youth training echelon, Su Changwei has almost never met Ronaldo.

Casey these superstars.

But today is an exception.

While walking, he saw an extremely familiar face.

Kaka.

The Brazilian, who was injured in the national team game, is still recovering from training like Su Changwei.

Probably after running for a long time, Kaka's face was covered with hot sweat, and his thick black hair was rolled up randomly, looking a little sloppy.

"Rika..."

After finally meeting his childhood football idol, Su Changwei still couldn't control himself and couldn't help shouting,

But before he even finished shouting the third syllable, he saw Kaka, who was worried, running past him with his head lowered.

"...many."

Su Changwei looked at Kaka's back, and the excitement he had just felt suddenly returned to normal.

He took a deep breath, clenched his fists slightly, and then murmured to himself:

"I don't blame Kaka for ignoring me. I'm just an ordinary youth training player. He has no obligation to respond to me..."

"It's because I lack manners and call other people's names casually on the road..."

"Thinking so absorbedly, he also has a lot of troubles, right?"

He was battling with the air when he heard footsteps coming from behind:

"Sorry, did you just call me?"

Su Changwei turned around quickly in shock.

Kaka is standing behind him, slightly apologetic:

"I was a little distracted just now..."

This time it was Su Changwei's turn to be distracted.

It was already six o'clock in the afternoon, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on Kaka's body, outlining a layer of faint golden light, as if he did not look like a mortal.

Kaka reached out and brushed her sweat-soaked hair, and was suddenly stunned:

"You are from the youth team...Su?"

His pronunciation is very inaccurate, it sounds like "Hugh".

But Su Changwei still couldn't help but be filled with joy:

"Do you know my name?"

Kaka nodded:

"I've seen the club news. You had a super long-range shot that was very exciting!"

Su Changwei laughed with satisfaction:

"I'm looking forward to joining the first team as soon as possible and being your teammate!"

Kaka encouraged him a few words, and the exchange ended here.

Both of them thought that the next chance encounter might be a long time later.

After all, there are two levels between U19 and the first team!

In addition to level, the bigger problem is Mourinho!

If you want to impress this madman and become a regular in the first team, it will be even harder than reaching the sky!

-

Perhaps because of this chance encounter, Su Changwei subconsciously paid more attention to the performance of the first team.

In the first game in December, the heavily rotated Real Madrid easily defeated Sporting Gijon 3:0 in an away game.

Kaká had a chance to play in the last 10 minutes, but had no outstanding performance.

Three days later in the Champions League group stage, Kaká finally made it, but everyone knew that this game had long been regarded as useless by Mourinho.

Cristiano Ronaldo, Di Maria, Alonso, Pepe, Ramos, Casillas and others all got a rest, and those who played with Kaka included Adan, Granero, Callejon, Shaheen, Al

Biol...and the newly joined young players Coentrao and Varane...

However, even with the substitute lineup, Real Madrid still firmly controlled the situation. Callejon scored twice, Higuain sealed the score, and Kaká, who played for 90 minutes, also contributed an assist.

The substantial rotation in these two games is of course to allow the main players to get sufficient rest time, so as to be in the best condition to defeat the arch-rival Barcelona!

-

On December 10, Mourinho, who was ready to go, welcomed Guardiola's Barcelona at the Bernabeu.

This battle of the century has attracted unprecedented attention.

The media from all walks of life are frantically building momentum.

Some people look back at last season's 5:0, Pique's Wuzhishan.

Some people are comparing the player values ​​of Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​and some are listing the statistics of Ronaldo and Messi.

Someone made a video of the "Battle for the Earth", and the battle was as fierce as Star Wars.

Football celebrities from all walks of life also appeared on stage, making various predictions about this peak battle from a professional perspective.

Even Wenger, who was far away in London, couldn't help but accept an interview and gave pointers to Real Madrid's tactics:

"This is an opportunity for Real Madrid to prove to what extent they have narrowed the gap between them and Barcelona."

However, how could Mourinho listen to Professor Wen who has never defeated Barcelona or Guardiola?

Real Madrid, playing at home, has recently won 16 consecutive games, and its momentum is at its peak. All injured players have returned, new players have been adjusted in place, the main players have been rested, and the entire team has adjusted to its best condition.

As for the visiting team Barcelona, ​​they are 3 points behind Real Madrid despite having played one more game. They have been chasing for a long time, putting their mentality at a disadvantage and being more passive tactically.

In terms of players, Barcelona generally fights continuously and lacks physical reserves. The main central defender Pique has been in poor form recently. Cesc Fabregas has also been unable to integrate into the team's tactical system. The overall bench lineup is also slightly inferior to Real Madrid's thickness - after all

First-line stars like Kaka and Higuain can only enter the rotation at Real Madrid.

In addition, the first assistant coach Vilanova was hospitalized due to illness and was unable to assist Guardiola in preparing for the game, which also had a big impact on the team.

Then...

In the seemingly "advantage is mine" situation, Real Madrid finally lost 1:3!

Real Madrid had a ball possession rate of 38:62, shots on target 17:12, shots on target 5:7, yellow cards 4:3, and fouls 22:13. These data are enough to illustrate the scene of the game.

Mourinho, who was full of confidence before the game, was disgraced once again!

His speech after the game was obviously a little out of control:

"Why didn't Messi even get a yellow card when he tackled Alonso?"

"We protested against the choice of referee before the game. Why didn't La Liga officials make a substitution?"

"We didn't lose to Barcelona, ​​we just lost to luck."

"Cohen Trump's appearance as a right back is a bold attempt and there is no big problem."

——Yes, in this battle of the century, the right back of Real Madrid was not Ramos, Arbeloa, Albiol, Diarra, nor Nacho, who had long been relegated to the sidelines.

Carvajal is Mourinho’s fellow Portuguese, Coentrao!

Under Barcelona's frontcourt attack, the little Golden Retriever's defense was full of loopholes and even lost position many times!

Su Changwei, who was watching the live broadcast, even felt that his defense was better than his!

[Although I can’t guard Messi, Fabregas, and Sanchez, I can break their legs!]

-

After the disastrous defeat to Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid almost had an earthquake.

Fortunately, even if they lost, they still had the initiative in the league. In addition, club president Florentino personally came forward, so the atmosphere in the locker room did not completely collapse.

But Mourinho still assumed the posture of running the army with an iron fist:

"Some players did not go all out in the game, and their concentration was not even as good as that of the reserve team!"

So he took the rare step of notifying the youth training director:

"I need some new blood, Fernando."

Fernando Sanchez soon figured it out:

"I will give you a list and let them train with the first team!"

Mourinho gritted his teeth and emphasized his tone:
Chapter completed!
