Chapter 314 Showdown with Ronaldo (2)

When I came to the Portuguese restaurant where Mendes and the others often come, Mendes ordered food, but only drinks and no wine, because my two agents are very self-disciplined players and will not touch those messy things during the game. As Mendes said, the two people have similar personalities and are very persistent!

It is not a luxury meal, but it is the most authentic Portuguese food. Only Portuguese people can find these authentic gourmet restaurants. Cod is the national dish of Portugal. It is said that there are 365 ways to make it, and you can eat one every day for a year.Cod in Blaj is a traditional dish: dried cod, eggs, thinly sliced ​​potatoes, and shallots are boiled in large portions.Baked cod is one of the easiest dishes: roast it in the oven with a little garlic, then add some steamed potatoes and vegetables.For seasoning, some olive oil can also be added.The swordfish is a large eel that lives in the deep sea of ​​the Madeira archipelago in the Atlantic Ocean.This is a famous dish that is hardly known in foreign countries. The fresh meat is white and hard, and the fishy smell is much smaller than that of other sea fish.Swordfish is an important traditional dish on the Portuguese table, often grilled. .

Green vegetable soup is a cabbage and potato soup with sliced ​​cabbage and a small amount of pepperoni.It is native to the north and is now a famous soup in Portugal.Alente Jana Soup.Once upon a time, it was the only soup served by the poor peasants of the Alentejo region.Now, luxury restaurants add garlic, coriander and olive oil to the elaborate cooking, and it is served with an egg and slices of bread.Gaspacho soup (Gaspacho).This is a traditional tomato and vegetable gazpacho, often served in restaurants in southern Portugal.Acorda soup.It is a savory soup of coriander, olive oil, and fish, sometimes with other seafood.

Cristiano - Cristiano Ronaldo and Mendes obviously come here often, and they are very familiar with the hotel waiters, saying hello, and they didn't bother the number one Portuguese star too much.

However, seeing Li Yuxin and Cristiano Ronaldo coming together caused even more commotion. Two world footballers came here to eat together, which is something that this restaurant can be proud of.

The owner of the restaurant is a friend of Cristiano Ronaldo, so he hurried over to receive him, and Li Yuxin readily agreed to his request for an autograph and a photo together.

Cristiano Ronaldo arranged the best private room. There was no one else. The three enjoyed Portuguese food and chatted. They talked about the days when they were in the Premier League together and the competition between the two in 06.

At this time, a voice came from the side:
"Hey, Julio, old rules," the man said to the restaurateur.

"No problem, Jose, just a moment."

"Jose?" Cristiano Ronaldo raised his head and went to open the door, and said in surprise, the person who came was the Portuguese coach Mourinho of Inter Milan.

"Ah! Cristiano, Jorge." Mourinho saw Cristiano Ronaldo and Mendes, apparently did not expect to run into him here, and then he saw this one standing next to Cristiano Ronaldo, his face was even brighter, and he grabbed Li Yuxin's arm, "Li, it's you, that's great. Come on, let's have a drink over there, oh, a cup of tea."

Obviously, he thought that Li Yuxin and Cristiano Ronaldo will have a match in a few days, and drinking is not suitable, so he changed his name to drinking tea.He is a rigorous military coach, so naturally he would not make such a mistake.

Li Yuxin was overwhelmed by Mourinho's enthusiasm. He didn't expect to meet Mourinho here. The other party was still so enthusiastic. He looked at Cristiano Ronaldo. The latter shrugged and said that he didn't expect it either.

It was impossible for Li Yuxin to refuse Mourinho's invitation, so he walked back with Mourinho and Cristiano Ronaldo full of doubts, and entered a private room, which was specially prepared by the restaurant owner for Mourinho.

After being seated.

Mourinho's first words startled Li Yuxin, "I'm very angry with you!"

Li Yuxin was about to say something when he heard Mourinho continue, "During the years you were at Arsenal, I always wanted to buy you, but in the end, you turned them all down. This is not giving me face."

Li Yuxin scratched his head, really, when he made his debut, Mourinho’s Chelsea invited him, but at that time, Mourinho’s life at Chelsea was not easy and he had Yaya’s promise, Li Yuxin finally rejected Chelsea after discussing with his agent Mendes, and stayed at Arsenal.

Later, in 08, Mourinho went to Inter Milan and issued another invitation. At this time, Mourinho was confident in Inter Milan and his position was stable. However, Inter Milan had no money and could not afford so much transfer fee to compete with Manchester City and Real Madrid. Moreover, at this time, the Serie A league was dominated by Inter Milan.

The two of them had never mentioned these things in person before, but at this moment, Li Yuxin felt a little embarrassed when he heard Mourinho say that in person.

At this time, the meal ordered by Mourinho was also delivered, which was charcoal grilled cod with potatoes and fried green vegetables.

Li Yuxin just ate the charcoal-grilled cod just now, and it tastes really delicious.

There is no doubt that the Portuguese are the people who love cod the most in the world. In Portugal, there are [-] cooking methods for salted cod alone.According to Cristiano Ronaldo, the charcoal grilled cod is the most delicious. The chef uses a fresh and simple cooking method to present the original taste of the salted cod as much as possible.The cod is first soaked in clean water for [-] hours to remove excess salt, then grilled over charcoal fire, served with small potatoes and vegetables to adjust the balance of taste.Finally, pour hot olive oil over it to bring out the aroma of the meat. The meat is smooth and tastes salty.

Mourinho picked up a piece of cod with a fork, chewed it in his mouth, and said, "Do you want another piece?"

"Uh, thanks, we just ate."

Mourinho slapped his head, "That's right, Cristiano Ronaldo treats you to dinner. Every time he treats people to dinner, he always orders the same. Don't look at how much he earns. He is not generous when he treats guests, and Jorge will not be generous with you."

Li Yuxin winked at Cristiano Ronaldo, the latter was not angry, but hey hey.

The topic of chatting is naturally inseparable from football. They chatted about the Champions League final against Li Yuxin and Cristiano Ronaldo.

After having dinner with Cristiano Ronaldo, Mendes and Mourinho, Li Yuxin returned home. It can be seen that Cristiano Ronaldo is quite unconvinced this time, but there will be another match in four days, and it will be his last match in the Premier League. We can only see him in the Champions League. Regarding this, the two of them know it well. opponents, remember the reports of later generations:
International superstars like Cristiano Ronaldo seem to be surrounded by a lot of halos, but if you really get close to them, you will find that all the glory they have achieved today is inseparable from their efforts.

Cristiano Ronaldo is always the hardest one

Cristiano Ronaldo has always adhered to the philosophy that hard training is the key to distinguishing a star from a good player, and it is precisely because of hard training that he has maintained a stable level.

In April, he said in an interview with the French "SOFOOT" monthly magazine, "I have always paid attention to those players who performed well. Studying them made me understand such a thing. The difference between superstars and good players is training. I have played with some players with outstanding talents. Is their talent more than mine? It is hard to say. But their indispensable standard is stability. Many players perform well in 4, 5 or 10 games, but you have to be good in 15 games in a season."

How to do this, Cristiano Ronaldo also gave his own answer. "The key is to sleep well, rest well, and eat well. The difference between a good player and the best player in the world lies in these details." Cristiano Ronaldo is a perfectionist. He said that although he won the Golden Globe again, he will continue to work hard to prove that he deserves the award.

Scolari said that what impresses him most about Cristiano Ronaldo is his never-ending enterprising spirit, which is unmatched by most players. "Cristiano Ronaldo will never stop working hard. Sometimes we can't stand it in training and ask him to slow down and not get injured, but then he will train harder. You assign him a training task, and he not only completes it well, but also takes the initiative to practice more and strive for higher requirements. This is what I like most about Cristiano Ronaldo." Ferguson also revealed that Cristiano Ronaldo is the hardest in training and often stays for extra training.

Do 3000 sit-ups a day

In this season's Madrid Champions League final, Cristiano Ronaldo rushed to the sidelines excitedly after scoring a penalty, took off his jersey and put on a pose to show off his muscular muscles. Even the Hollywood action movie star Schwarzenegger praised Cristiano Ronaldo's perfect body.In addition to hard training, the reason why Cristiano Ronaldo can maintain such a good figure is due to doing 3000 sit-ups almost every day.

During the Manchester United period, some of his unconvinced teammates once challenged him to compete with him in sit-ups.As a result, no one could surpass Cristiano Ronaldo's record, and some even declared "surrender" in less than 3 minutes.After arriving at Real Madrid, Cristiano Ronaldo's muscular strength attracted the attention of Real Madrid teammates from the first day of joining.

Maintaining a perfect body and peak condition also depends on Cristiano Ronaldo's self-discipline.Cristiano Ronaldo is said to not be eating or drinking with friends after games but to start "training" in other ways.The first thing the Real Madrid shooter has to do is to eat as soon as possible on the court to replenish energy, mainly fruits, pizza and other foods.

That year, Cristiano Ronaldo, who was "healthy" from body to image, was favored by the international nutrition giant Herbalife, and replaced Messi as the global brand spokesperson.
