Chapter 96 Our Opponent (third update, monthly pass!)

Real Madrid believes that the key to breaking the "Dream Eight" spell lies in themselves, so they disdain to participate in boring quizzes like "How about our opponents" like other clubs. They did not talk about their opponent Naples at all, only a few media outlets in Madrid were introducing Naples to Spanish fans.

For this team, I believe that many people's memories still remain in the distant 1980s. At that time, Maradona moved from Barcelona, ​​creating the world's highest net worth-10 million US dollars.

What is the concept of ten million dollars in 1984? In the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, the TV broadcast fee of the European Broadcasting Union totaled 19.2 million U.S. dollars.

Since Maradona moved from Barcelona in the past, Spanish fans can remember this period of time.

The Spanish media introduced the current situation in Naples to the fans, but it was at best a general introduction. For example, tell us about the stars of this team, their current league rankings, and their performance in the Champions League group stage. That's it.

In fact, their introduction can be regarded as informative. They listed the number of goals and goals scored by Naples in the league this season, as well as a series of data in the UEFA Champions League group stage for analysis. .

But why still say that their introduction is general?

Because for the Naples team, you only introduce the data and their record. You can only touch the skin of this team, but you can't go deep into it.

The reason why this team is called Naples, and the reason why it is unique in the entire Italian football world, is definitely not because they have won a few games, scored a few goals, lost a few games, and lost a few goals.

But because... they are called "Naples".

※※※

Real Madrid did not talk much about Naples, and likewise, Naples did not talk much about opponents.

This is really a strange pair of opponents in the quarter-finals of the Champions League. After the game, other teams always talk about their opponents, even teams like Barcelona can’t be exempt. They talk about Stuttgart from players to coaches, whether they think they have drawn a good sign or warn their teammates not to underestimate the enemy.

But Naples and Real Madrid unexpectedly did not discuss each other. Real Madrid does not discuss Naples, but it is understandable that they are the best team of the twentieth century, and they are the giants of the giants. They must have the shelf of super giants. Disdain to discuss rivals of this level in Naples.

But Naples did not discuss Real Madrid, which made the media feel a little strange-they obviously did not turn a blind eye to opponents like Real Madrid because of their fine traditions and glorious past.

So why are they not talking about Real Madrid?

Outsiders may not know it, but people inside the Naples team know it all.

Because since knowing the result of the draw, Mazzari felt that Naples' opponents were not Real Madrid, but... UEFA and Platini.

On the second day after the draw results came out, Mazzari called up all the players during the team training. He has a few words to say to everyone.

"To be honest, guys. We are **** overcast!" Mazzari frowned, his face covered with clouds.

Everyone is accustomed to him swearing, so it's not surprising that they are used to it.

"There are some things I can't tell the outside, but I hope you all know. Why did we get together with Real Madrid? Because we beat Platini mercilessly in the face in Lyon, this is his revenge . We all know that they wanted us to lose to Lyon at the beginning, to ensure that the Lyon team qualify, and also take the group first. Now he tells us with practical actions that it is not safe to be first in the group." Mazzari looked at everyone with a serious expression.

"But I want to thank him, why? Because he allows us to recognize a reality, and that is...Never place your hopes on the opponents you may encounter on how far you can go in this event. We think that the team First, we can sit back and relax, but reality slapped us hard. It is actually very simple to determine how far we can go in this top-level event..." Mazzari raised a finger, "There is only one Xiang, our own strength. If we have the absolute strength of Barcelona, ​​do we care who the opponent we meet? Therefore, forget who our opponent is and train hard to improve our strength!"

"I feel honored for you in my heart, guys. Because Naples is the first team in history that is not Real Madrid and Barcelona as its opponents. Our opponent is the powerful UEFA. It is the president of UEFA. Mr. Tiny. Challenging power is the fate of Naples from the time of Maradona. I am very happy that we still have the opportunity to continue this glorious tradition! Our Naples gave Platini a powerful counterattack in Lyon, I hope In February of next year, we can still make Platini not happy for several days!"

The players laughed, the head coach said so vividly, they seemed to be able to imagine Platini's expression in Lyon.

In the cold morning, everyone who Mazzari said was warm in their hearts. The blood boiled in them, which filled them with motivation and fighting spirit. They hoped to usher in the two-round Champions League quarter-finals with Real Madrid right away. .

Mazzari seems to know what the players are thinking. It's not good to be too enthusiastic. A good head coach should be good at controlling the emotions of the players, not just mobilizing.

"Oh, yes, there is one more thing. Don't try too hard during training today, because... you all know, we have a Christmas dinner tonight. I don't want anyone to lie down on the hospital bed before that..."

※※※

Christmas dinner, this is a celebration held by the Naples club. Although there is still a week before Christmas, the last game of this year is on December 20. After the game against Chievo, the team will be on holiday. Up. At that time, it is impossible to have any celebration activities. Everyone is impatient to go on vacation. Who cares about the celebration dinner in the club?

The players have worked hard for a year. Through this dinner, the club would like to thank the players and staff for their hard work, and at the same time gather the fighting strength and enhance the players' sense of belonging.

Especially when the lottery is drawn to Real Madrid, this dinner is particularly important.

In fact, the club officials have already notified every player about the Christmas dinner, and they have also notified them that this is a family dinner, and you can bring your own female companions and children to attend. The so-called female companion is a wife with a wife and a girlfriend. Take a girlfriend, if you don’t even have a girlfriend... hurry up and find one!

Chen Yingxiong belongs to the kind of poor worm who "doesn't even have a girlfriend".

In fact, with Chen Yingxiong being so popular with women, he should have no shortage of girlfriends. But now he is really a bachelor, and this may have something to do with his being too carefree. Which woman is sure to hold this radish that he wants to soak when he sees a beautiful woman?

So Chen Yingxiong was very distressed about where to find a female companion.

※※※

Due to the club’s group activities in the evening, the training ended very early today. The team gave every player time to go home and change clothes and take their families.

When he left, Cassano was still joking Chen Yingxiong: "I said hero, you just call that little girl from the TV station, I think she is interesting to you." He hasn't forgotten to show on the TV station road. At that time, that woman behaved like a nympho.

Chen Yingxiong pointed his **** to him: "Don't worry, I will definitely bring you a big beautiful woman! Don't bother you!"

Casano left with a big laugh. Although he was joking, he felt that except for that woman, Chen Yingxiong seemed to have no other better choice...

Chen Yingxiong got into Cabrera's car depressed and drove home.

The female companion really gave him a headache. Although he is not short of female affinity, at this moment, he lacks a suitable female companion...

He sat in the car and thought about this problem for a while, thinking about breaking his head, and combing through all the women he knew in his mind, and found that it was really not suitable. As her news spokesperson, Vera can come to the rescue at this moment, but she is still in Russia... This is far from quenching her immediate thirst.

The car suddenly accelerated, and he leaned back abruptly, knowing that Cabrera was speeding up again to throw away the fans who were chasing after the car and wanted to ask for autographs and photos. For the very popular players in the Naples team, it is their basic skill to do everything possible to avoid those fanatical fans on the way home, which naturally includes speed.

This acceleration caused Chen Yingxiong to turn his attention to Cabrera who was driving.

This cold female bodyguard is still wearing a black suit and trousers—she always wears this outfit, and sometimes even makes Chen Yingxiong think that she doesn't change clothes all year round. Her hair is slightly longer than when Chen Yingxiong first met her, and at least he can comb it.

Chen Yingxiong lived with her for more than a year under the same roof. She has never seen her put on makeup, even the most basic lipstick.

There are no necklaces, no earrings, no rings, and no other accessories.

She is not interested in all the things that women are interested in.

If it weren't for her figure is still uneven, it really makes people think that she is not a woman.

In the past, Chen Yingxiong still wanted to tease her. For example, to hide her identity when she went out, she even asked her to pretend to be her girlfriend. It turned out that this person had no sentiment at all. He was really boring, and gradually stopped doing it.

The problem of finding a female companion is still bothering Chen Yingxiong. He looked at the woman who didn't look like a woman in front of him, and he said that a dead horse should be a living horse doctor. If she refuses, she will go to the TV station’s new female vase. The festival list is over that day, but she ran to leave her phone number, and at least she will not refuse her...

"Hello, Christine."

"What's the matter, Mr. Chen?" Cabrera replied coldly, with a feeling of rejection. If it weren't for Chen Yingxiong's tone of voice, he would just shut up on the spot, not to mention the following request.

"Do me a favor. We have a Christmas dinner at the club tonight, and... this is a family banquet. Every player is required to bring a female companion or something..."

"Do you want me to be your female companion, Mr. Chen?" Cabrera said directly about Chen Yingxiong's request.

Hero Chen nodded: "That's it. Of course, uh, if you don't want to, it's okay. I'll go find another woman..."

"Okay. It's my duty to protect you, Mr. Chen."

Cabrera’s answer made Chen Yingxiong unresponsive for a while, and he continued to nag: "...you know, my female relationship is very good, so in fact, I still have a few candidates...what are you talking about? "It's like a network speed delay, and he just reacted at this time.

"I said yes. It is my duty to protect you, Mr. Chen." Cabrera repeated the words.

Chen Yingxiong opened his mouth: "That was an internal banquet, and there will never be extreme fans in it..."

"You can't let your guard down on any occasion." Cabrera replied formulaically.

Chen Yingxiong wanted to make a complaint, but when he thought that since they had agreed, he couldn't be too mean...

All he just narrowed his mouth and said nothing.

※※※

After a long time, Cabrera, who was concentrating on fighting with the fans, suddenly heard a voice from the back seat: "Thank you, Christine."
