The strongest winger

Chapter 921
Just as the Spanish mainstream media was tracking and reporting on Ailuo's return, the entire Valencia team had arrived in Madrid, which meant that Ailuo and Wang Xiaolei officially reconciled with Valencia.

Many Valencia players are extremely excited about the return of the two, especially David Villa and David Silva.

In the days without Ailuo and Wang Xiaolei, the team's offense and defense had great problems. The first leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final lost to Real Madrid at home 1:3 is an example.

This result made the La Liga leaders a little bit embarrassed this season. You must know that Valencia, who had Aiello at the beginning of the season, played Real Madrid 4:1 at the Bernabeu.

So Valencia is sad without Aiello...

On the same day, Real Madrid's mouthpiece "Aspen" talked about Aiello's return to the team and Real Madrid's concerns about advancing to the Copa del Rey final: "With Ai's return, Valencia's combat effectiveness will rise to the highest point. Facing the newly promoted Real Sociedad who are recovering, they must go all out if they want to stabilize the league points, and now they have to be distracted from the second leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final..."

"Marca" also talked about Real Madrid's recent predicament: "Real Madrid unexpectedly drew with Osasuna in the 21st round of the league this season, so that the points gap between Real Madrid and the top Valencia and the second place Barcelona were stretched to eight points and four points respectively. With the deepening of the league, more thoughts will inevitably be put on the Champions League. In the middle of the week, Valencia will fight fiercely and return strongly. This season is a long way for Real Madrid..."

Then, he talked about Real Madrid's recent injuries: "Coincidentally, Ramos, Pepe and Higuain are likely to be unable to enter the squad for the second leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final at the Bernabeu two days later due to injuries. Close, compared to Valencia's Champions League 1/8 final opponent Copenhagen, Real Madrid's Champions League 1/8 final opponent Lyon is more difficult to deal with..."

In fact, as Aiello and Valencia met in Madrid, Mourinho began to have a headache.

Valencia without Aiello can be crushed at will, but Valencia with Aiello really has no good way. Now the main defenders Ramos and Pepe are both exempted due to injuries.

No matter which two central defenders will be sent in the Copa del Rey semi-final against Valencia in this scene, Mourinho can't rest assured. Carvalho is very old. This season's No.14 home game against Valencia in the league this season was defeated by Aiello.

Kaka's return from injury also forced Mourinho to vacate a position in the midfield, because it is impossible for Florentino to allow Mourinho to put Kaka on the bench with a transfer fee of 500 million euros and an annual salary of [-] million euros after tax.

It’s just that it’s hard to guess which side will win this big score. For the possibility of not being able to achieve 100%, it is difficult for Mourinho to make a decision to play against at home, otherwise the No.13 and [-] rounds of the league this season will be repeated.

Aiello joined the joint training in the afternoon of the meeting with Valencia. To Ancelotti's surprise, Aiello did not show any signs of fatigue at all. If this situation can continue until the day of the game, then he can definitely be in the starting lineup.

It is a little pity that the goalkeeper Wang Xiaolei seems to have some ups and downs in his state.

In fact, this is not surprising. With the Chinese team winning the Asian Cup just now, the whole body is in a state of extreme excitement. It will take at least a week of adjustment to return to the best game state.

So this has also become a strange place for other Valencia players. Logically speaking, this kind of situation will only appear on Ai Luo. Unexpectedly, it will appear on goalkeeper Wang Xiaolei, which is really speechless.

Cristiano Ronaldo was full of confidence in the team's entry into the Copa del Rey semi-finals, even if Aiello and Valencia reconciled, he has been in a very good state recently, scoring 21 goals in 34 league rounds, four more than Messi, and a full ten league goals more than the absence of a month in the league.

Now he is full of confidence, and he is very dissatisfied with his teammates preparing for the second round of the Copa del Rey semi-final in midweek. After the training that day, he was interviewed by reporters and said: "I don't understand why the whole world thinks that Ai's return to Valencia will pose a huge threat to us. Please remember that we will be at the Bernabeu in the next round, and we have three away goals. In addition, everyone will see my state. Can such a Real Madrid still be unable to beat Valencia at home?"

Many reporters did not react to Cristiano Ronaldo's remarks.

In their impression of Cristiano Ronaldo, even though he was defiant, he still respected his good friend Ai Luo.

But from the remarks just now, it is obvious that Cristiano Ronaldo is very dissatisfied with the media's emphasis on Aiello's return to Valencia. From another perspective, Cristiano Ronaldo is under a lot of pressure now.

Of course, Real Madrid's league results are not directly related to Cristiano Ronaldo. You must know that many games rely on his explosion to finally score three points. In other words, he is the hero of Real Madrid's many games.

As a good friend of Cristiano Ronaldo in Real Madrid, Kaka was also interviewed by media reporters after the training. When talking about the second round of the Copa del Rey semi-final in the middle of the week, he said: "Valencia with Ai is difficult to deal with, but is it easy to deal with me and Cristiano? Look at our performance in the first round at Mestalla and you will know the result..."

In fact, Kaka was very guilty at this time. He had challenged Aiello before the 2006-2007 UEFA Champions League final championship award, but... he went downhill with the ups and downs of AC Milan.

But now it's better, Kaka's condition is starting to pick up, and with the help of a super killer like his friend Cristiano Ronaldo, is it difficult to beat Valencia?

Obviously not difficult!

The relationship between the two clubs of Valencia and Real Madrid has always been good, so even the second leg of the Copa del Rey semi-final, which is related to the promotion to the final, did not make much noise. Occasionally, it was just players expressing their confidence in winning the game.

After hearing about Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka's belief in winning, he was very calm in the follow-up interview, shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "The combination of Cristiano Ronaldo and Kaka is very strong. It is not surprising that they have the confidence to win. Similarly...the combination of me and David's attack power is not inferior to the attacking group of Real Madrid. I think...the odds of winning the game before the game are equal. .”

Then the reporter asked whether Ai Luo would start the game, and he set off a smoke bomb: "I really don't know about this. It depends on the specific arrangements of the head coach."

So no one knows if Aiello will start Valencia's Copa del Rey semi-final second leg away to Real Madrid.

When asked about coach Ancelotti, his answer was even more ambiguous: "Ai has just played in the Asian Cup for a month, and the situation is a bit complicated."

In fact, Ancelotti was very helpless. According to his idea, he would put Aiello on the bench and wait until the second half to replace him. However, Ailuo communicated with him immediately, so he had to make adjustments to the relevant personnel arrangements, especially the starting roster.

Despite this, there are still many media predictions that Ancelotti will put Aiello in the starting lineup for his first trophy in Valencia, because Valencia's league opponent at the weekend is the newly promoted Herkus, and the team with a 90% chance of taking the lift this season will not pose any threat to the league leaders at all, so...

Mourinho also believes in this possibility. As the head coach of Ai Luo in the past two and a half seasons, he knows Ai Luo's character very well.

He has a very strong desire to fight without any physical discomfort, and he seems to always maintain a high desire for honor, and he will go all out in any game. It is not accidental, but inevitable that he has become the most successful football player in world football these years!

所以2011年2月4号晚上八点在伯纳乌球场进行的2010-2011赛季西班牙国王杯半决赛次回合比赛艾洛首发登场！

Therefore, many commentators subconsciously exclaimed when they got the starting list: "Ai actually started?"
