Chapter 129

"Qin, I have good news for you!"

After the preparation meeting, just as the players were heading to the training ground to start today's training, Rangnick stopped Qin Ming alone.

"Really? Mr. Rangnick."

Although he didn't know what Rangnick was going to say, Qin Ming still pretended to be listening attentively.

"For the yellow card you received for contradicting the referee in the last Copa del Rey match, the club has already lodged a complaint with the Competition Committee of the Spanish Football Association!"

"According to the feedback received by the club so far, the committee is likely to make a ruling and cancel your yellow card record!"

Rangnick's words fell into Qin Ming's ears, and his face was filled with surprise.

Can a yellow card be canceled?

This operation is too outrageous!
Qin Ming couldn't understand the miraculous operation of the club, but it didn't affect it. It was indeed very good news for Qin Ming.

According to the rules of the Copa del Rey, if a player receives three yellow cards in total, he will be automatically suspended for one game!
If the yellow card in the last game can really be cancelled, it means that as long as he doesn't get straight red in the semi-finals, Qin Ming will definitely be able to appear on the stage of the finals normally.

Of course, there is another very important premise——

Barcelona needs to win Athletic Bilbao smoothly!

"This is simply awesome!"

The surprise on Qin Ming's face gradually turned into surprise.

This scene fell in Rangnick's eyes, and his eyes became a little kinder.

"Qin, to be honest, I am very angry about what happened in the last game!"

Although he said he was angry, there was no trace of anger in Rangnick's tone.

"The reason I'm angry is not because you contradicted the referee and got a yellow card. It's about what happened on the field. After the game, you should respond to me or the club in time!"

"We didn't know what happened in that game until we saw Alenia's interview!"

"It made us feel very passive! You know that?"

"As a player, your battlefield is indeed only on the green field! But for the club, the off-field is also a very important battlefield!"

Qin Ming was enlightened by Rangnick's words, and he nodded hastily.

"I see, Coach!"

Qin Ming had already experienced too much of the Barcelona management's showy operations before, which also made Qin Ming misunderstand them.

Rangnick's earnest words just now gave Qin Ming a little side talk, making him start to re-examine this special group.

It is true that the goal of the players is to strive for better results, but the management is different.

From the perspective of the management, their core goal is to attract and retain more fans, and then convert them into more economic income.

Therefore, improving and maintaining the team's competitiveness in the arena is only one of the means to achieve the goal, not the only one!

After realizing this, Qin Ming somewhat understood why there was a conflict between the players and the club.

This is entirely because there is a serious dislocation between the two sides in the pursuit of the target!
No matter how serious and sufficient the pre-match preparations are, the game will eventually be completed on the field.

After three days of intensive training, Barcelona finally ushered in the first round of the UEFA Champions League 1/8 finals at their home court, Camp Nou.

At 8:40 p.m. in Spain, the huge Champions League flag was swung down on time.

Over the crowded Camp Nou, the solemn and passionate Champions League theme song "Champions League" was also played.

"They are the strongest! They are invincible!"

"They are the champions! The division of victory! The division of kings!"

"Great team!"

The high-pitched and heroic music reached its peak in several repetitions and then came to an abrupt end!

What followed was a burst of applause from nearly 11 spectators.

This highly anticipated event is finally about to begin!

For Qin Ming, this is his first Champions League match, and it is a very wonderful experience.

Seeing the red and blue flags waving vigorously all around, and feeling the different enthusiasm of the red and blue fans, Qin Ming also became excited.

During the friendly tribute before the game, he walked briskly behind Alba.

Reach out, shake hands!
After shaking hands with every Manchester United player and member of the referee team, Qin Ming's limbs became hot, and he couldn't wait to enter the game.

However, where he didn't notice, the referee looked at the big number 51 on the back of his jersey, and a cold look flashed in his eyes!

[The host logs in to the Nou Camp, do you choose to sign in? 】

"Sign in!"

[The host signed in successfully! 】

[Reward: An Extreme Vision Experience Card! 】

For the sign-in rewards given by the system, Qin Ming always checks them now habitually.

However, today's game did not give him this chance. When De Jong exclaimed, everyone's hearts were suspended.

"Beware!"

Following De Jong's shout, Qin Ming looked around.

Under the pressure of Cavani, Langley had no choice but to take a big kick from the backcourt.

In the high ball competition, Depay obviously lost to Manchester United's midfielder Fred, and the opponent easily got the ball.

For the handling of the ball in the backcourt, Fred was very skillful.

With a simple direct pass, the ball flew past Menino and directly found Greenwood, who was waiting for an opportunity on the left side of Barcelona.

The young Greenwood reacted very quickly. The moment he received the ball, he soared his speed to the extreme.

Dribble the ball with the right foot and advance quickly!
Although Alba did not lose his position, Greenwood was aggressive and the scene looked a little dangerous.

Greenwood dribbled the ball quickly through the midfield, and before Alba tried to go up, he passed the ball directly to striker Cavani who followed in the middle.

Cavani looked up and observed for a while. Pique and Lenglet had successfully settled down and stood in the best defensive position.

Menino, who is in the midfielder position, is about to return to defense.

It would be a bit procrastinating to make a breakthrough at this time!

Gritting his teeth, Cavani stopped before reaching the top of the arc in the penalty area.

With a bow and an arrow, the muscles of his right leg burst out with great strength, and he shot angrily with one kick, and went straight to the gate guarded by Ter Stegen.

As a world-class central defender, Pique's response is also very fast.

The moment Cavani kicked his feet, he lowered his body's center of gravity and took a blocking posture.

However, the power that Cavani erupted was too powerful. Before Pique completed his defensive action, the ball passed quickly between him and Lenglet!
"hiss!"

In the fearful gaze of the crowd, the ball flew over the baseline after flying over a distance of more than 30 meters, rubbing against the left post of the goal.

Although the goal was not scored, such a thrilling scene made the audience gasp in unison!
"It seems that Manchester United wants to give Barcelona a bad start!"

In the live broadcast room, Zhan Jun said with a frightened face and lingering fear.
