Football: The god-level goalkeeper makes the whole of Europe call him brother

Cruyff was quite satisfied with Li Ming's answer and continued, "Let me put it this way, the purpose of inviting you here today is very simple, that is, to invite you to play for our national team!"

Li Ming was confused. To be honest, he has not considered joining the national team yet.

Cruyff continued: "We know how outstanding you were when you were a sparring partner in the Spanish training team. Today's match between Barcelona and Atletico Madrid once again verified our point of view. I also studied your materials carefully!"

Li Ming felt honored when he heard it and asked: "Master Cruyff, what is there to study about my materials? After all, I just came up from the echelon!"

Cruyff smiled and said: "Although you were born in the glorious East, you grew up in the Netherlands in your childhood. You have already obtained our Dutch nationality. Later, when you were a teenager, you looked down on Feyenoord and came to Atletico Madrid Football School. You have been here all the way until now. It is indeed very powerful, but..."

Cruyff said: "You have been in Spain for a few years and are about to obtain Spanish nationality at the same time, so I will be honest. We want to let you play for the Dutch team before the Spanish national team recruits you. Serve!"

Van Basten also said: "There are too many goalkeepers in Spain, including Casillas of Real Madrid, Reina of Liverpool, Cañizares of Valencia, Valdes of Barcelona, ​​Palop of Sevilla, Esteban of Celta, Molina of La Coruna, and Almunia of Arsenal... Maybe there is no place for you in Spain. In the Netherlands, you just need to be a substitute for Van der Sar!"

Listening to Van Basten calling out so many names in a row, Li Ming was stunned. The box was already filled with bacon, grilled fish, salad and other delicacies. Cruyff smiled and said: "Let's eat, boy. Playing a whole game is very tiring!"

To be honest, Li Ming was really hungry and sleepy now. Just as he was about to start, he saw the waiter put a copper hot pot, a pair of chopsticks, and a large bowl of sesame paste in front of him! He also brought two plates of mutton slices, beef slices, frozen tofu and the like!

Li Ming was stunned. He could actually find Old Beijing Hot Pot in Spain?

Rijkaard smiled and said, "This is the oriental ingredients specially prepared by the teacher for you. He studied it for a long time before he found that this steaming method is most suitable for authentic oriental hot pot!"

Van Bronckhorst and Van Bommel also said, "The teacher particularly appreciates you! You must know what is good for you."

Li Ming looked at the two Master Fans and found that their eyes were particularly bright, as if saying, "Don't be shameless, otherwise don't even think about leaving this room!"

Cruyff saw the clue and scolded, "Don't be rude to Amin. Even in the national team in the future, you two must take good care of him."

Although the two Master Fans, one from Eindhoven and the other from Feyenoord, they all obeyed Cruyff's words, because Cruyff was the synonym and godfather of football in the whole Netherlands.

The two hurriedly weighed it, and rushed to serve tea and water to Li Ming. They saw this kid pick up a piece of raw mutton with chopsticks, simmer it in the copper pot for a few seconds, and then dip it in sesame paste and quickly put it into his mouth while the meat was still steaming.

The two were shocked when they saw it. Putting such hot things in your mouth, aren't you afraid of scalding your tongue? But they said: "Junior brother A Ming is really gifted. He can catch the ball with his hands and swallow the boiling things with his mouth. The teacher's vision is good!"

Li Ming didn't care about their flattery, but he had been talking about this mutton shabu-shabu for a long time, and he was eating it with great enthusiasm.

Cruyff said on the side: "Think about it carefully! You don't need to give me an answer now, but if you want to join the national team, you can call Van Basten at any time. Eat well, kid!"

Li Ming put down his chopsticks and said seriously: "This matter is easy to handle! But I have a condition and a promise."

Everyone looked expectantly, waiting for Li Ming to continue.

Li Ming said: "The condition is that I must be the main goalkeeper. No matter whether it is Van der Sar or Stekelenburg, anyone in the same position must be my substitute! The promise is that you will not regret it!"

Van Basten was drinking lemonade slowly. When he heard what Li Ming said, he didn't spit it out on the spot!

Cruyff slapped the table and smiled: "Okay! Then I will make a deal with you. If you can agree, then we have a deal!"

Li Ming: "What? How come you are making a request again?"

Cruyff: "This season, if you concede less than 15 goals, you will be the main player in the World Cup in Germany next year!"

Li Ming: "Okay, it's a deal! I will play for the Dutch team!"

Everyone else was also very happy.Li Ming can be registered in the national team to participate in international A-level events before Spain; on the other hand, even for league giants like Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​the goal conceded in a season is at least 30. As long as this kid fails to meet the requirements of Cruyff, the national team meritorious Van der Sar can continue to play as a main player!

After the deal was settled, Cruyff was in a good mood, tasting the cigar, and was in high spirits. He smiled at Li Ming and said, "Eat quickly! Eat slowly!" With a clap of his hands, the waiter immediately brought squid, tripe, wide noodles and the like. Li Ming's eyes were blurred, thinking that since it was someone else's treat today, he should eat to his heart's content first.

Several people ate and talked in the box. They were amazed to see Li Ming eating such hot food directly. They talked about how although the Dutch national team missed the 2002 World Cup, there was a spurt of talent in the past two years, and Li Ming must be full of honors for joining the national team.

Li Ming smiled and thought that if I wasn't there, you would have to watch TV at home during the 2018 World Cup and the 2020 European Cup.

Because in the era before Li Ming traveled through time, the youth training of the Netherlands in the next few years would be very weak. Except for Van Dijk, who was considered a top player, Depay and others were at most half-baked. It was not until Cruyff returned to Ajax and restarted the youth training that Frenkie de Jong, De Ligt, Van der Beck and others slowly supported the Dutch team.

After eating for a while, Li Ming was quite satisfied. At this time, his V3 mobile phone rang the hello moto ringtone again. He looked down and saw that it was Torres calling.

Torres: "Amin, where are you? Coach Bianchi asked me to pick you up, don't be too wild!"

Li Ming was deeply moved, but unfortunately the mobile phone at that time could not send real-time positioning: "I am at the Puerta de Alcalá restaurant that never closes, otherwise you can navigate here!"

Seeing that Li Ming was about to leave, Cruyff patted him on the shoulder and said: "Young man, you go back first, I will use my own way to push you into the Dutch team!"

Li Ming didn't know what the Barcelona godfather would do, but he felt flattered that the Dutch team had invited such a super figure.
