Ultimate Demon Sword

Chapter 259 Returning to the Club

After the 1:2 loss to France, with the end of the China Cup, this period of training for the national team will come to an end, and the international players will return to their respective clubs one after another.The next training camp for the Chinese team will be three weeks before the opening of the World Cup.Then it will be the final sprint.

Wen Zhihao and Liang Xin left the team at the airport and returned to Spain and the Netherlands respectively.Coincidentally, Griezmann and Wen Zhihao also flew back to Madrid on the same flight.

"How about it, buddy, isn't it interesting? I said that you will never lose too badly. Anyway, you still have a goal, don't you?"

Wen Zhihao curled his lips: "I think it's useless for you to win the World Cup this year."

Griezmann immediately became displeased: "According to what you say in China, you are a typical person who can't eat grapes and say grapes are sour. You can't get them in China, so you don't want to see others well? Wen, your evil psychology has finally been exposed."

Wen Zhihao looked at him pretending to be serious, and replied solemnly: "If you have no education, don't you come out to show off? First, this story comes from Aesop's fables, a folk tale from ancient Greece in the sixth century BC. It is not made in China at all."

Wen Zhihao suddenly paused, feeling a little proud.Is the cramming teaching in China beyond your imagination?I didn't expect that what I learned in elementary school is still useful now!
"Also, I'm just telling the truth. When you win the Chinese team, you always have such a sense of superiority. If you win something like Portugal and Belgium, you can't be so excited? Calm down, you know, you won't get to the end if you are too emotional."

Griezmann grinned and didn't talk too much about this topic. Instead, he complained: "Actually, this time I received an invitation letter from the national team temporarily. I thought I could enjoy a few days of vacation on this international match day, but I feel like I'm almost becoming a competition machine. Vacation? It seems to be a long time ago...sunshine, beach, bikini. They are going away from me."

Wen Zhihao smiled: "If it weren't for the tight time this time, I could have taken you to have fun and enjoy the friendship of the landlord... How about this, after the World Cup, if you are interested, come to me. The most important thing in China is delicious and fun. When the time comes, I will let you experience the joy of life."

Griezmann's eyes lit up: "This is what you said! I will never be polite to you then."

……

On the plane, the two talked and laughed all the way, and the ten-hour journey home seemed to be in the blink of an eye.

Simeone and Boggs saw the two alive and kicking in the club building, talking and laughing and walking in, their faces could not help but smile.The fact that the two of them had no accidental injuries is the best news.At this juncture of the championship, the biggest and most uncontrollable enemy of the giants' coaches is the unstoppable FIFA virus.

Wen Zhihao and Griezmann stood in front of Simeone. Simeone, an iron-blooded man, was not good at expressing concern. He just looked them up and down, and said calmly, "Well, you two came back early, and you will take a break for the next two days. Practice will start when everyone arrives. Don't let me be lazy."

Just as Griezmann was about to agree, Wen Zhihao took the lead to answer: "No need for the boss, I've had enough rest on the plane, I feel that I can't run out of energy now, and I have nothing to do anyway, so I might as well practice more, I'll go to the boss first."

After speaking, Wen Zhihao took his bag and went straight to the training center.

Simeone glanced at Griezmann, and Griezmann was very clever, and immediately said: "Well... let me go with Wen, he is boring training alone."

Simeone nodded with satisfaction.

Griezmann, however, was full of pain and couldn't tell. While training in the training center, he kept complaining: "Wen, I have decided to stay away from you in the future. I don't want to be forced to become a training madman like you. You didn't see the eyes of the boss just now. It means that you see that Wen Zhihao knows that the extra training is the main force. Do you want to rest...I'll go, and you will be quietly tricked by you if you don't pay attention."

"Hahaha!" Wen Zhihao's stomach hurts from laughing, and after laughing, he changed into an "unrepentant" expression: "It is necessary! What is a brother? Going forward and retreating together, having nothing to do with each other? Do you care? It's useless if you have an opinion! I've already heard the professor's footsteps, let him catch you and hide here in the name of extra training, and think about the consequences yourself."

Hearing the name of the physical trainer, "Professor" Mendez, Griezmann was startled, bowed his head and began to work hard like Wen Zhihao.In terms of the level of the devil, Simeone is nothing compared to this one.Players who have a good relationship with Simeone can sometimes be exempted from punishment if they admit their mistakes with a better attitude, but Mendes does not recognize them.And at most Simeone yells at you for a while, which has a great psychological impact. Mendes' punishment method is not far from his old line, and it is worthy of the name to "work his mind and suffer his bones".

Although Mendes is very easy-going on weekdays, in the hearts of Atletico Madrid players, he, like Simeone, is someone who must not be provoked, a typical "smiling tiger".

……

Two days later, Saul, Carrasco, Godin and other players who were transferred by their respective national teams returned one after another.Simeone immediately arranged for the team medical team to test the physical condition of all players participating in the national team competition.For example, is there any hidden danger of relapse of old injuries due to excessive fatigue?

The result pleased Simeone.The national team competition does not consume much of these players, and all physical indicators are normal.

In fact, Simeone was a little worried.Most of these Atletico players are the backbone or important puzzle pieces of their respective national teams.As the World Cup draws closer, the coaching staff of the national team will naturally properly protect the main players.Carrasco and Godin only played half of the national team game, and Saul only played 10 minutes on behalf of Spain. Spain led Belarus 3:0, and he was replaced early.

But speaking of it, this seems to be God's will.Half of the main players have been transferred by the national team, and they can return to the club alive and well, especially this year's La Liga team has such a dense schedule. For a giant like Atletico Madrid, it is almost good news that cannot be met.

Perhaps, this is God helping Atletico Madrid to break Real Madrid and Barcelona's championship monopoly this season!

Atletico Madrid's side, Simeone closed the door and secretly laughed, but the coaches of the other teams at the top of the standings were not in such a mood.

Barcelona and Real Madrid have a lot of names on the injury list, and perhaps the most influential one is Messi's need for a two-week truce.The cause was a slight strain on the back of the thigh.

Barcelona fans angrily cursed the Argentine national team.Originally, there was no room for loss in the La Liga championship. Why call Messi back for the big warm-up match!
Isn't Messi's injury an indirect opportunity for Atletico Madrid to widen the gap?

Thanks to Sampaoli overusing Messi!

Messi is actually more helpless, Barcelona is better, the national team... oh!I will cry if I continue.

There are eleven stars on the field, looking luxurious but not like a team at all.

No one passes the ball to me, I have to take care of organization and scoring, and be a father and a mother.

However, I really can't move it!
