125 Punishment for underestimating the enemy

However, after Mark and Raul chatted with him, Mark did not know that Raul now wanted to recommend him to Real Madrid, so Mark is still chatting with his companions like a ok person.

Soon Mark and his friends finished their dinner this time. After saying goodbye to Raul, everyone drove back to their homes. On the way, Mark sent Fan Fan back to school.[]

Not long after Mark returned home, Momo also returned home. She looked a little tired now, perhaps because she seemed a little unenergized after a long negotiation.

"Come on, have a drink first, it seems that you are working hard today." After waiting for Momo to enter the house, Mark did not ask him what happened today, but handed him a glass of water to Momo first, which of course showed Mark's considerateness.

"Today's negotiations are not going very smoothly." Momo sat down and took the water cup handed over by Mark, then took a sip and adjusted his tired mood. "Today we have a negotiation on your current contract. The rough situation is that Atletico Madrid is preparing to sign a new personal contract with you, that is, they are now preparing to package you and make you a superstar like Torres, but you must now give 50% of your personal portrait rights to Atletico Madrid, and then increase your current liquidated damages."

"Oh, that's nothing, right?" Mark said very uncooperatively. In fact, Mark doesn't know some details of his current contract. After the negotiation is silently completed, Mark just needs to sign his name.

Don’t doubt that Momo would deceive Mark. Mark has a lawyer who will check whether the contract is fraudulent at the signing site. Moreover, Momo is now a small group with Mark, so there is no need for her to deceive Mark.

"Oh my God, okay, it seems that you are not very clear about your contract. Now let me explain your current contract to you. Your current contract is a three-year contract. Atletico Madrid now has 20% of your personal portrait rights, and the breach of the contract is 30 million euros." Momo now has no choice about Mark's current appearance, and she now has to give Mark a detailed explanation.

"Now Atletico Madrid is ready to obtain 30% of your personal portrait rights without paying any price, and then increase your breach fee to 50 million euros. This is obviously unfair. In other words, if you sign a contract with any advertiser in the future, half of the cost will be Atletico Madrid, and you only had one-fifth of them before. Do you think this is fair?" Momo now explained in one breath and asked Mark.

"It's really unfair. If you want to get these, you must at least increase my salary." Mark's mind suddenly changed, and then he said in a cooperative manner.

"That's right, that's it. Now you don't have a lot of advertising sponsorships, and now you have gained a firm foothold in Madrid. If you continue to perform like this, your advertising revenue will not be very small in the future. I dare to assert that your advertising revenue in the future will definitely exceed your salary." Momo said now with confidence.

"I can't do these things anymore, it depends on you. Anyway, I believe in you completely. It depends on your performance now." Mark said after patting Momo's shoulder.

Momo now feels that there is a lot of pressure on Mark's trust. Mark now chooses a very good agent. This is like a leader selecting employees. Before choosing, the leader is very busy. Once he chooses a good employee, the leader will be very relaxed, and everything is allowed to be done by the employee chosen by the leader.

Mark now has this feeling. Mark really doesn’t have to worry about anything besides playing football, so Mark now feels lucky that he has such a good agent to help him deal with these things.

It is indeed Mark's luck now, because not all football agents are very kind-hearted, and now football agents are very cold-blooded. They all claim to be vampires. Ordinary football agents will make players transfer continuously or ask for salary increases to meet their income.

Ordinary football agents will not care about the long-term development of football players. Of course, there are also many good agents who have a very harmonious relationship with their own contracted players. They will give up some of the benefits for the long-term plan of the players and then collect returns in the future.

Of course, Mendes, the hottest player in the European football world, is now Mendes. Mendes has a large number of Portuguese players. And because of Mourinho's success in Porto, Mendes' reputation is getting bigger and bigger. However, Mendes, who is famous now, has a very good attitude towards players. He often helps players plan a path that is more suitable for them, rather than killing chickens and getting eggs like some other football agents.

However, Mark doesn't care much about these money matters now, but Mark now has a concept, that is, I should give it to me if I should get it, and if it shouldn't be mine, I will never get it too much.

So Mark obviously thinks that Atletico Madrid's proposal is not very suitable. You should know that Mark is not without good performance on the court. If Atletico Madrid suddenly takes away 50% of Mark's portrait rights, then Mark obviously cannot accept it.

"Okay, I know how to do it, so leave it to me." After Momo had gained Mark's trust, he nodded firmly and said.

Momo now is the kind of person who does not need any pressure from others. She is now considering the problem from Mark's perspective. Of course, he also knows that Mark's current reassurance towards her also requires her to come up with a better solution to help Mark solve the current problem.

Now Mark and Momo chatted for a while and soon returned to the room. Now it will be a two-person world of Mark and Colos.

Now Mark and Colos don’t want anyone to disturb them anymore. They both said love words together, and now the two of them have been in bed for a long time before falling asleep.

In the next few days, Momo is still dealing with Mark's affairs. Now many people have sent contracts to invite Mark as the spokesperson by Momo. Momo is now considering which better contracts to accept here.

In addition to his daily training, Mark is in the world of two people with Colos. Now Mark's little heart, who was slightly injured after being equalized by Barcelona, ​​was comforted by Colos and no longer hurt.

However, although Mark wants to live a close life with Colos every day, he is still a professional player after all, and Mark still wants to participate in Atletico Madrid's competition.

It was soon time for the game. The players are now taking a plane to Valencia in southeastern Spain. It is bordered by the sea in the east and backed by a vast plain. It is evergreen all year round and has a pleasant climate. It is known as a pearl on the western coast of the Mediterranean. It has a population of about 800,000, making it the third largest city in Spain and the second largest seaport.

Atletico Madrid in this round is not the away match against Valencia, not the traditional Spanish strong team, but Levante, who is in the city. However, in terms of history, Levante is longer than the eldest Valencia, the city's boss.

Levante's predecessor, the Eastern Coast team, established in 1909, was originally named Levantefc. After the Spanish Civil War, the club stadium was completely destroyed, while Tarragona, in the same city, lost most of its players in the war, so the two clubs merged to form a new team in 1939. It is particularly worth mentioning that Levante was born into a grassroots team in Valencia. Although it cannot be compared with Valencia Club in terms of performance, they have had superstars like Distefano and Mijatovic in history. Cruyff also played here in the 1980-81 season. However, spending years in the Spanish Second Division made this team lose its former halo. After 39 years, they won the 14th place last season, so Levante hopes to stay in the ranks of Class A for a long time and open up a new future.

The team hired former German star Schuster as head coach. Schuster had outstanding experience in his player age, but after moving to the coaching industry, the 44-year-old at the age of 44 can only achieve brilliant results at the Serie A FC. However, his strong locker room affinity helps him develop the team's combat effectiveness. Compared with the other two newly promoted teams, Levante's range in player entry and exit, with Leeds United left-back Hart and Swedish defender Miarby joining the team one after another. Considering that they gained an advantage in the Serie A stadium last season, Levante's prospect of relegation is widely optimistic.

Atletico Madrid can be said to be in high momentum. Since Atletico Madrid successfully suppressed Barcelona in the last round, they are not caring about Levante in this game at all.

Moreover, Atletico Madrid in this game can be said to be in a complete position, and the return of head coach Ferlando also brought great morale to the team.

The players are talking and laughing now, as if no one cares about the opponents of this game, so naturally, this includes Mark.

Mark does feel that Levante's reputation is a little too small. Mark has never heard of such a team before. Even Mark, who is in the same region, has heard of it.

But it may be that Levante has never achieved any outstanding results. Atletico Madrid players believe that this game will definitely score three points in one game.

Although Ferlando is not as relaxed as the players, he is now maintaining a very optimistic attitude towards this game.

The starting lineup of this game, Ferlando, still continued the same lineup as Barcelona, ​​but Antonio Lopez, who was younger in the left back position, is now on the stadium.

Torres has started continuously now, but Torres is also very tired now, but head coach Ferlando still does not let Torres rest. Torres continues to appear in the starting lineup.

Mark's current position is still the right forward. Perhaps Mark's outstanding performance in the first half made Ferlando feel that Mark's current position on the wing is better than in the midfielder position, and Atletico Madrid does not need to strengthen its defense if it is against teams like Levante.

But now Atletico Madrid only found out after playing on the court that Levante is indeed not a good bone to chew. Now Levante has retracted its defense at the beginning of the game.

This makes Atletico Madrid players who are full of confidence have no better way now. And now, since Atletico Madrid plays the tactics of a single striker, Torres is now quickly lost in the intensive defense of Levante's defender.

The players of Atletico Madrid in this game seemed to suddenly not find their form, which may have a lot to do with the players working too hard when they played against Barcelona at home.

The players of Atletico Madrid now seem to be running aimlessly on the court, and these players seem very lazy. Mark now thinks this is also a normal phenomenon, after all, the game has not been long since started.

The next step will be much better. It seems that two people are attacking on Atletico Madrid's stadium, one is Mark, and the other is naturally Van der Fate who was replaced early in the last game.

Now Van der Fate was replaced early in the last game, so his current condition is relatively good compared to other players.

However, even if Van der Fat and Mark are in relatively good shape, they cannot completely change the team. Torres seems to be completely lost on the forward line.

Now Van der Fate's pass of several good balls for Torres after the opening game was wasted by Torres. Either Torres did not adjust his pace and did not receive the football, or directly let Levante's players steal the football, or directly shoot high.

"Fernando, what's wrong with you? This is not like you at all. Where did that omnipotent El Nino go in Barcelona?" Mark shouted at Torres after the first half.

Now both sides have played halftime, Atletico Madrid's chances are quite similar to those of Levante. You should know that Atletico Madrid is suppressing Levante and now it has given Levante a lot of opportunities. This is definitely caused by the inattentiveness of the current Atletico Madrid players in the game.

"Everyone concentrates. The opponent is just a team that has just been upgraded. As long as we show our strength, it is easy to defeat our opponents." Now Ferlando is definitely not a problem to win the opponent according to the strength of Atletico Madrid. As long as you seize one opportunity, you can win the game.

However, the current Atletico Madrid players seem to have no change after the start of the second half. There is only Mark on the stadium and running continuously in the frontcourt. Although Mark is very tired now, Mark has no choice but to do anything now, because the game is only based on his own performance.

The current head coach Ferlando doesn't seem to be planning to win this game. If he wants to win this game, he should have used the tactics of a double striker, rather than letting Torres keep rushing in the frontcourt alone.

"Beep!!" Mark is now tripped and Atletico Madrid has a chance to have a free kick.

Now Mark is running to the football before he is ready to take the free kick. This is Mark's fourth free kick in this game. Levante now controls the free kick very well.

It is obvious that their head coach Schuster has also had a profound study of Atletico Madrid's offensive routines, and now this game is the result of his research.

Now Levante is like a turtle, huddling into the hard turtle shell and unable to come out. Their purpose seems to be to defend the draw.

But will they be willing to have such a draw once they have a chance? Obviously the answer is no. In the 70th minute of the game, Levante's tortoise quickly stretched out their heads and bit directly on Atletico Madrid.

Levante took advantage of an opportunity that Atletico Madrid could not defeat for a long time and used a quick counterattack to directly drive the ball into the penalty area and break through. Then, after Baboro touched Machev in the penalty area, Machev fell to the ground and couldn't get up.

The referee ran over and decisively awarded the penalty kick at this time. The current Atletico Madrid players are all arguing around the referee.

"Referee, this is not a foul. This is a reasonable physical contact. It should not be a foul." Mark said to the referee now.

At the same time, there are many Atletico Madrid players, including Baboro, who are also explaining.

However, the referee's penalty cannot be changed now, and Levante's players will take the penalty.

"Is this a punishment for Atletico Madrid underestimating the enemy?" the narrator said now.
