Soccer: The Road to Extraordinary

Chapter 575 The Season of Continuing to Dominate

"It's really great. Boss Jiang's decision is undoubtedly one of the most correct this year."

For Pirlo's return, Yan Feng raised his hands and feet.In the era when Pirlo coached, Yan Feng himself was the most favored locker room leader at that time.Under Mourinho, Yan Feng often misses the days when he worked with Pirlo.Many times, he looked forward to Pirlo's return.Now, hope has come true.

"I am back."

This is the first sentence Pirlo said after seeing Yan Feng.

"The ideal we talked about can continue now. Will you continue to realize it with me?"

This is Pirlo's second sentence.

"Of course!" The reliance in Pirlo's words is what makes Yan Feng fascinated.Back then, the two were both teachers and friends.Although the two have very different styles on the court, they can reach an agreement on the team and their respective interests.

The few simple words that Pirlo and Yan Feng talked after meeting again set the tone for the second period between Granada and Pirlo.

For Pirlo's return, most of the players in the team are happy to see it happen.After all, the current main lineup of the Granada team is still those who left behind by Pirlo.Back then, Pirlo's big brother-style way of getting along was still very popular with players.

Among the players, the one who welcomed Pirlo's return most unexpectedly, except for Yan Feng, turned out to be Modric.Although Modric is actually the greatest achievement of his career in the hands of Mourinho.But he prefers Pirlo, who has the same style as a player but sympathizes with each other.

For Modric, Yan Feng now has a different feeling from before.Now Modric, in Yan Feng's view, is completely enjoying a state of football.Yan Feng felt that Modric should have basically completed his career after winning the Ballon d'Or.

In fact, it is true.Therefore, Modric didn't care much about the departure of Mourinho, who brought six championships to the team.Moreover, he also discovered that Yan Feng was also obsessed with the Golden Globe Award.In this regard, Modric expressed support.And he also took the initiative to tell Yan Feng some of his own understanding of offensive organization during training.

Because the main framework of the Granada team is still those veterans, Pirlo's return is relatively smooth.

However, after two years of absence, the Granada team has undergone many changes.One is that those young teenagers have fully grown up; the other is that the substitute players have undergone tremendous changes; these things still require Pirlo to re-adapt.Moreover, Pirlo, who has been away for two years, also requires players to adapt again.

At the beginning, due to the need to re-acquaint and adapt between Pirlo and the players, they were not able to enter the best state immediately.

In the European Super Cup before the season, Pirlo's first official game after his return, the Granada team easily defeated the Paris Saint-Germain team that lost Neymar.Won the first championship after coming back.

However, in the next two rounds of the Spanish Super Cup, the Granada team drew two draws with Real Madrid, which introduced Neymar.Finally, in the penalty shootout, he lost with one goal.

This is the first championship that Pirlo lost after re-entering.Although the gold content of this championship is not as good as others, compared with Mourinho, who achieved six championships, he was immediately criticized by the outside world as far inferior to the latter.And Yan Feng and Jiang Lizhang, who cut Mourinho, soon became the targets of attack.

Although these inevitably brought pressure, they were not taken seriously by Jiang Lizhang and Yan Feng.A Spanish Super Cup Jiang Lizhang is not very concerned.And Yan Feng is like a fish in water under Pirlo, especially after Modric stepped back and became the most important core of the team, naturally he will not have any opinions.After all, Mengsan only won six championships once.It is acceptable to miss out on an insignificant trophy while still needing to grind.

The outside world is not optimistic about the Granada team, but is very optimistic about the introduction of Neymar to succeed Ronaldo. Real Madrid is very optimistic.At the same time, the Barcelona team is also favored.

This will be even more so after the start of La Liga.Because the start of the Granada team this time is far inferior to the previous two seasons.Failed to firmly occupy the top spot at the beginning like before, but ranked behind Barcelona and Real Madrid.This made the outside world think that the Granada team ruined their bright future and forced the awesome Mourinho away.

However, the first two teams were not happy for too long.As the schedule progressed, the Granada team was also getting better.After Pirlo fully adapted to the team, the Granada team began to show its terrifying strength.

Pirlo's style is completely different from Mourinho's.His Granada team played fascinating and beautiful football again.In addition to playing well, he was also full of fighting power, and a series of winning streaks began later.At this moment, the doubts from the outside world began to decrease rapidly.After meeting both Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​any sound disappeared.

By the end of the half, the Granada team came from behind and regained the top spot.And successfully advanced in the Copa del Rey and the Champions League.

After only half a season, Yan Feng felt extremely comfortable.Modric is now willing to stay behind, and under the influence of Pirlo's specially developed tactics, Yan Feng has killed the Quartet on all fronts.He has become an extremely terrifying character on both offensive and defensive ends.Not only won the best of the month several times, but also was awarded the title of "Chinese Chariot" by the outside world.A tank with unstoppable firepower and defense.

Under such reuse, Yan Feng rewarded Pirlo with a Club World Cup champion.Although this is Granada's defending title, it is Pirlo's first Club World Cup title.

Pirlo won two championships after returning to the Granada team.However, if Mourinho's three championships are added this year, the Granada team will have another five championships.However, because he is only a five-time champion, he is still far less attacked than Mourinho.

Another year is drawing to a close, and the annual Golden Globes are here again.Yan Feng was nominated again, but he still failed to enter the top three.The Ballon d'Or was once again taken away by Modric.but.This time, in addition to Messi, No.3 is Neymar who squeezed out Ronaldo.

Because of the above, Yan Feng secretly vowed that he must give Pirlo a six-time champion in the coming year.And let yourself get the biggest bargaining chip to reach the top of the Golden Globe Award.

Time quickly entered the second half of the competitions.Although during the period, Yan Feng had many games to play in the national team's Asian Cup and World Cup qualifiers, but under his leadership, the Granada team overcame all obstacles and entered the final sprint to win the championship.

In the end, La Liga, the Copa del Rey and the Champions League were all successfully entered after a difficult battle.The champions who have won the major competitions for several years in a row have almost become a monopoly.

After missing the championship of major competitions again, Ronaldo announced his retirement after the league ended.This is the end of a generation of superstars.This has made countless people feel that an era has come to an end.
