Chapter 641 Incoming Call (Part 2, ask for a monthly pass!)

When Tang Zhaoer called, Li Rui was heading to Old Trafford with the team bus, preparing for the Champions League group match against Villarreal.

His cell phone was on silent, so naturally no one answered it. He found a Spanish tutor through his friends, which was relatively hidden. At Li Rui's level, any small matter could cause a sensation.

Take this matter as an example, he sought a Spanish tutor because he wanted to continue studying for a master's degree after competing at the University of Leeds, and his tutor recommended him to study at the University of Madrid just because of the major Li Rui chose. , in Europe as a whole, the University of Madrid is the best, so Li Rui wants to learn Spanish, which is also convenient for communicating with the tutor.

However, if the outside world knows that he plans to learn Spanish, how many rumors will come out? It will definitely say that Li Rui has reached an agreement with Real Madrid or Barcelona and wants to leave Manchester United.Of course, this is something that has no shadow, but it can't stand the hype of the media.

***********
The Champions League match against Villarreal, in fact, still has a special meaning for Li Rui. Three seasons ago, Li Rui's first Champions League game after he transferred to Manchester United was against Villarreal. In that game, Li Rui scored a hat-trick and became a blockbuster in the European arena. The altar knows itself.

Moreover, in that game, Manchester United was playing away, so Li Rui's performance was even more difficult.And today, Manchester United is playing against Villarreal at home. Therefore, Manchester United fans and the English media hope that Li Rui can use his outstanding performance to change his mediocre performance after the start of the season.

However, after 90 minutes of the game, the score on the field was still fixed at 0:0. Neither side scored a goal. Manchester United failed to get off to a good start in their first Champions League game of the new season.

Li Rui's performance in the game was mediocre, and he once scored a goal. However, the referee ruled that he was offside. Judging from it, Li Rui still hasn't been able to get out of the relatively depressed state.Compared with the fiery Li Rui in the European Cup, this is not a small gap.

Moreover, in this game, Manchester United's biggest loss is that Cristiano Ronaldo was injured and left the field. Manchester United's No. [-] will be absent for at least a month. In addition, Carrick also accumulated two strong points in the game and was sent off with a red card.

***********
In this game, Li Rui felt that Manchester United seemed to be a team that the whole football world wanted to stop. Villarreal gave Li Rui the impression of a team with good skills. In fact, La Liga teams also have this style. However, this game can be said to be hand-to-hand combat. Li Rui felt as if he was struggling in the Champions League final. Villarreal made it clear that they wanted to get a point. Stance, the audience retreated, and the fight was fierce, and the kicks were also very fierce, which almost caused a conflict.

After the game, Manchester United coach Ferguson scolded his opponent Villarreal for playing rough football.

"Three years ago, I praised Villarreal as a respectable team. Their game is very good-looking and their style of play is very beautiful. Now, I want to take back my evaluation of this team. Today's game The way our opponents played in the game was watched by everyone, their movements were so rough, I thought I saw a rugby game...Carrick's red card? Maybe he should be sent off, but, in Carrick Before Ke was sent off, Villarreal players had to be sent off at least a dozen. Compared with our opponents, we are simply more civilized. In my opinion, as long as it is a Manchester United game, the referee's law enforcement is always It will be special."

***********
A reporter kindly 'reminded' Ferguson that a team can only have 11 players in a game, and it is impossible to send off a dozen players. Ferguson glared at him.

The Scottish old man's remarks were embellished by the media and turned into a shot at UEFA, criticizing the European Cup for not wanting to see Manchester United continue to dominate Europe in this season's European Champions Cup.

This set off a big storm in European football.He was also fined £[-].Simultaneously.UEFA issued a formal warning to him, hoping that he will refrain from his words and deeds and not to say some unfounded things.

***********
It is hard to tell how many times this is the first time between Ferguson and Europe.Anyway, the temper of the Scottish old man has always been like this, and the Premier League team and UEFA are not dealing with it. This is even more obvious after Platini became the president of UEFA and waved a big stick to restrict the Premier League.

Of course, the main thing that made Ferguson angry was Cristiano Ronaldo's injury, which was a great loss to Manchester United's offense. Looking at the schedule, Manchester United will go to London on the weekend to challenge the leader Chelsea away.

Cristiano Ronaldo's sudden injury and Rooney's red card suspension in the last league game against Liverpool made Manchester United's attacking ability not so reassuring when Li Rui was still in poor form up.It is not difficult to understand why Ferguson suddenly went into a rage after the game against Villarreal, berating the opponent Villarreal and the head coach with a soft whistle.

***********
The home game was tied 0:0 by Villarreal, which made Li Rui very depressed, and he also faced a lot of pressure and criticism.

Counting, Li Rui scored in the UEFA Super Cup, and also scored in England's European World Cup qualifier against Andorra, but he hasn't scored in the league or the Champions Cup yet. It can be said that it is not an exaggeration to say that the European Cup Golden Boot is now in a scoring drought.

Li Rui didn't know what was going on, the more he was in the game, or in other words, the more important the game was, the more he wanted to score, he just felt like he couldn't score.It made him very angry.

***********
At this time, the head coach of the England national team, Mourinho, called to comfort him.The head coach of the Three Lions comforted his proud disciple and told him that this is normal.

"Many players who performed well in the intercontinental competition in the summer often performed unsatisfactorily in the following season. Because they consumed too much energy in the European Cup, and all their state and passion were advanced in advance. As for the period of downturn after the start of the new season. This is the reason for you now, and you have not had much rest for two consecutive seasons. Now the period of physical and psychological fatigue has come. This is the overpayment of the body. , It’s useless to be anxious, don’t think about it, and don’t pay attention to those damn criticisms, take this time to take a good rest and adjust your state.”

Mourinho has always cared about Li Rui. He knows that this is the first time for Li Rui to play in an intercontinental competition like the European Cup. He has never experienced the so-called European Cup (World Cup) syndrome in the season after the intercontinental competition. , I must be very anxious at this time, so I called in time to comfort my proud disciple, telling Li Rui not to worry, but to adapt slowly, adjust his mentality, and the state will naturally get better and better.

Li Rui was very touched that Mourinho was able to call and say this. As Mourinho said, it was the first time Li Rui encountered the Intercontinental Syndrome, so he had no experience and could only It’s about being anxious. The more anxious you are, the more you will affect your state. If this continues, it will only be a vicious circle. Now, after listening to Mourinho’s words, although it cannot be said that nothing is wrong, it is still useful. He is also an experienced professional player who knows how to adjust his state.

***********
After hanging up Mourinho's call, Li Rui remembered that the missed call was from an unfamiliar number. He hesitated for a while and called back. After all, all the people who knew his mobile phone number were friends.A girl appeared in his mind, and Li Rui nodded. He became more and more sure that this was Vivienne's prank. This little girl is not as quiet as she looks, and she has a criminal record for prank harassment with an unfamiliar number.

Pressed the callback button, after a few moments of thought, someone answered over there, Li Rui didn't wait for the other side to speak, he smiled and said, "Vivienne, I knew it was you, and said that I was going to grow up, Why are you still like a child, what's the matter?" He tried his best to keep his tone as usual, Li Rui hadn't contacted Vivian since the 'misunderstanding' happened, he didn't know how to deal with it This beautiful little girl who has gradually grown up, of course, if there was no 'misunderstanding', she would not have so many scruples.

There was silence on the other end of the phone, Li Rui smiled, and the little girl was still pretending, "Why don't you talk?"

Tang Zhaoer felt her heart was beating violently, as if it was about to pop out of her chest. Her body trembled slightly, and she spoke authentic Manchester English on the phone. Although she didn't speak Mandarin, she felt so familiar. That person's The voice, she never forgot.

"Is it Li Rui?" Tang Zhaoer said, speaking in Mandarin.

"Yes, huh? When did you learn Chinese?" Li Rui replied subconsciously, and then he heard a busy tone from the phone, and the phone was hung up.
