Chapter 217 A Vacation in a Foreign Land

Before the Christmas break, Atletico Madrid achieved their wish and won two consecutive victories. They defeated Alaves 2:1 at home and scored directly with Wen Zhihao's set kick in the away game, beating Espanyol 1:0.

At the same time, the No.17 round is also the Spanish national derby that is attracting worldwide attention. Real Madrid will face Barcelona at home.Real Madrid showed their determination to win at home. Cristiano Ronaldo and Benzema each scored a goal in the first and second halves. The fierce contest ended in a 2:2 draw with Messi scoring twice.

A draw, the biggest winners are Atletico Madrid and Valencia.Atletico Madrid narrowed the gap with the top of the list to four points, and at the same time extended the advantage over Real Madrid to four points, which has reached more than one game.

The league is nearly halfway through, and the top four teams are Barcelona with 42 points, Valencia with 40 points, Atletico Madrid with 39 points and Real Madrid with 35 points.

The gap between Atletico Madrid and the top two teams is only one goal. As long as they can maintain a good momentum after returning from the holiday, it will not be difficult to tie or even surpass the top.

Simeone specifically warned everyone not to just think about the beauties on the beach before the holiday was disbanded. After the end of the season goal is achieved, it is time to fully enjoy the holiday.

Wen Zhihao has no plans to go back to China for vacation this year. On the one hand, the La Liga schedule is very tight. Atletico Madrid will re-focus on preparing for the second half of the competition before the New Year's Day in China. The more important reason is that Wen Zhihao wants to spare this time to practice and improve himself.

The season is over and the World Cup is approaching.For his first trip to the World Cup, he can only sacrifice the holidays.

Wen Zhihao told his family that he would not be back for Christmas, and he could feel the disappointment of his mother on the other end of the phone: "Every year you can't celebrate the New Year at home, and you just count on this opportunity for our family to get together. I'll discuss it with your dad. If you don't want to go back and forth, we can go to Madrid."

Wen Zhihao also felt that his decision didn't take care of his parents' emotions. He briefly explained the reason, and finally said in a flattering tone: "Mom, you are the most reasonable. For your son, the World Cup is the ultimate dream. You will definitely support my decision, right? Don't worry, I will go home as soon as this year's season is over, and I will spend more time at home before fighting for the World Cup."

After a while on the other end of the phone, Dad Wen answered the phone. After understanding the reason, he was very supportive of his son's decision: "Boy, Dad supports you. You will soon be an adult, and men should focus on their careers. The World Cup is something that generations of Chinese players dare not think about. You have the opportunity to participate at such a young age, and you should cherish it. Work hard there and don't miss the two of us. I will go to Russia with your mother to cheer you on."

Wen Zhihao immediately grinned, it is good to have a die-hard fan dad, and they often have a common language.

Everyone in the training base was empty, and it became deserted. The gatekeeper was surprised why Wen Zhihao didn't leave: "Wen, are you still there?"

Wen Zhihao smiled: "Uncle Serge, we don't have a Christmas tradition."

The janitor came to his senses all of a sudden, and said with a smile, "That's right, you should celebrate the Spring Festival, a traditional Chinese festival."

Wen Zhihao smiled and said, "Uncle Serge, open the door of the gym for me, I want to go in."

Sergi was taken aback, and then nodded approvingly to Wen Zhihao. It is already unusual not to enjoy the holidays. At this time, he can take the initiative to practice more. Sergi has seen from Wen Zhihao that Chinese players also have hard work.

On Christmas Eve, Madrid was full of Christmas atmosphere. Wen Zhihao walked around the streets at night, and there were lit Christmas trees and Santa Claus everywhere in the shops on both sides, just like Chinese New Year.

Wen Zhihao would go to the Chinese community in Madrid for several nights in a row, and spend the New Year's Eve with the compatriots here.During the festive season, I miss my relatives a lot.Although his parents are not around, but in a foreign country, surrounded by Chinese elements, Wen Zhihao has special feelings when welcoming 2018.

On the night of New Year's Day, Wen Zhihao received a call from the captain Gabi: "Wen! I didn't bother you! I called you because of the time difference in China. Happy New Year!"

The corner of Wen Zhihao's mouth twitched: "How do you say it's an interruption, we are at the same moment."

Gabi was surprised that Wen Zhihao didn't come home. After hearing the reason, he laughed and scolded abnormally, and then invited: "Wen, is it necessary to work so hard? Vacation is such a wonderful thing, and you must not wrong yourself when you should enjoy it. Come out and have fun, anyway, you will return to the team the day after tomorrow!"

Wen Zhihao heard the voice on the other end of the phone was very noisy, the sound was loud, it was either a bar or a disco, Wen Zhihao had never been interested in this kind of entertainment place, but Gabi insisted: "Why do you stay in the house all day? You should come out and see the world of adults and children, there are many unexpected interesting things."

Wen Zhihao did not expect that less than 10 minutes later, there was a car parked directly under the apartment, and it was Griezmann

"Gabi asked me to pick you up, get in the car!" Griezmann added angrily: "You are really awesome, and you actually asked the captain to let me be the driver! I didn't want to agree, but you are the passenger, and I feel uncomfortable if I don't come."

"Then you go, anyway, I'm not interested in that kind of occasion, it makes me feel like I owe you a lot of favor."

Griezmann shook his head immediately: "That won't work, Gabi said, if you can't catch you, he will instigate you not to pass the ball to me on the field...Although I understand that you are unlikely to be such a person, I still want to ask, will you?"

Wen Zhihao joked casually: "So you know, don't talk to me in that tone just now, I'm not happy, and the consequences will be very serious."

……

Ten minutes later, the two arrived at a bar on the commercial street.

To put it nicely, it is called a bar. In fact, Spain is different from China. Here you can experience all the fun you want.Stimulated by the explosive music, the young men and women dancing heartily on the dance floor in the middle showed their youthful vigor.

When Wen Zhihao saw this scene, the first thing that popped out was an idiom: Demons dancing wildly!

If anyone knows how a 17-year-old adolescent feels in a bar, he either thinks this person is crazy, or wonders if he is reborn from ancient times.But Wen Zhihao just didn't like it, he was naturally resistant to the noisy environment.

But what about football matches with thousands of fans?

Wen Zhihao said that on the field he absolutely focuses on football and enjoys the game.

Just as Wen Zhihao sat down, Gabi handed him a poured glass of whiskey and said, "Have a glass!"

"Um, I won't." Wen Zhihao waved his hands and declined.

Gabi patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Wen, you are really self-disciplined. But this kind of life will be very boring. In the new year, you will take it right away? Before letting you come, it was called spoiling children, but now, you should experience adult projects..."
