[football] walk side by side

"...What happened? What is Mourinho trying to do again? Can't he just calm down and stop doing such sensational things all the time? Are you annoying..."

"Am I the only one who feels distressed? During the Chelsea period, I fell in love with Uncle Psy because of his supercilious self-confidence and arrogance. Later, when he went to Inter Milan, he did his own way and was full of energy. But since he came to Real Madrid, it is true that he turned white overnight, right? Impression Here, he has always been such a proud person..."

"Sometimes I really feel very sad... Every time I watch him hate the media and opponents, protect the team behind him, and face the criticism and ridicule from the outside world by himself, I feel happy and sad. I can understand him I hope that the team will not be affected by external factors, but he will not be tired if he faces these alone? Whether it is Chelsea, Inter Milan or Real Madrid, in the final analysis, he will finally stand on the cusp of the storm , he is always the only one..."

"With all due respect, isn't Mourinho asking for this? Who made him provoke Barcelona and other La Liga teams so much every time? Just let him speak badly and stop other teams from fighting back. Real Madrid should have changed coaches long ago, Mourinho is simply not suitable for Real Madrid's temperament. He always says that the referee is unfair and the opponent's feet are dirty, just like his Real Madrid is not dirty..."

"I remember that there is a saying that Mourinho 'stands upright in the war of one man against the whole world'. In fact, it has always been like this. At Chelsea, he was the one who faced all the firepower of England's media. At Inter Milan, he was the whole world. Serie A rejection was aimed at him, Real Madrid was disgusted and criticized the referee for his lack of demeanor, and the club hoped to stand up to protect the players at critical moments..."

In the stands, the narrator was also commenting on this sudden incident.

"Yes, there is a very shocking scene on the field. The Real Madrid coach knelt on the edge of the field. Considering the upcoming penalty shootout, maybe he is praying to God to bless Real Madrid to advance to the final?"

"I have to say, this is probably the most incredible scene of this season. We all know that Mourinho has always been proud and arrogant, but now this madman has made such a low profile for the team's results. ..."

"In the two years since he took over Real Madrid, the Portuguese has had a long and bumpy run-in period with the team. He once suffered a disastrous defeat to Barcelona, ​​and the team's locker room was once chaotic. However, after the start of this season, Mu Rinho's 'Mu's second phase' curse has worked again, and the successive victories have brought the entire Real Madrid team back to calm. Now, it is the most critical step for Real Madrid to achieve their goals this season. ..."

The voice of the commentator, the voice of the fans discussing and exclaiming, and the boos from the visiting team's stands mixed together, making the entire Bernabéu stadium look chaotic, but these did not have the slightest impact on the players on the pitch .

At this moment, only the person on the sidelines remained in Cyril's eyes.

For a moment, Cyril doubted the authenticity of the scene in front of him - as many people thought, how could such a proud man like Mourinho make such a humble gesture at this time Woolen cloth?

However, after thinking about it carefully, I remembered that it was not the first time that I felt such a sore and powerless feeling.

Cyril once thought that he would never think of those things again, but now looking at the solitary figure on the sidelines, those memories that were buried deep in his heart seemed to be floating in the deep sea like fish. rise--

It was Mourinho's last game before leaving Chelsea, away to West Ham United.

Chelsea's official announcement came suddenly. Cyril didn't know at the time that it would be Mourinho's last game leading Chelsea-maybe it's useless to know.

Chelsea's performance in that league was terrible.

West Ham United is a well-known violent and violent team in the Premier League. Chelsea just happened to be in trouble in the league. There were also several highly controversial penalties in the game, which caused the entire Chelsea team to be in a mess. , Mourinho stood on the sidelines, constantly trying to communicate with the fourth official and the referee.

In the end, he was sent to the stands for being disrespectful to the referee.

When this scene happened, many people were just startled for a moment before returning to calm. In terms of Mourinho's temper, this is actually not uncommon in the Premier League.However, to everyone's surprise, Mourinho, who was fined to go to the stands at the time, did not go to the Chelsea fans stand, nor did he go to the VIP box where Abramovich was.

He was alone, standing at the end of the West Ham United fans stand, which is also the highest place.

Cyril had accidentally seen two photos of the game in a photography magazine.

One is that before the end of the game, the Chelsea coach stood among the rival fans who kept swearing at him, and looked at the stadium not far away with a blank expression.The other one is when the referee announced the victory of West Ham United. The man was surrounded by the vast stands full of cheers, and he was a standing stone in the lively river, alone, without sadness or joy.

Thinking about it now, it seems like a lifetime away.

"……Cyrillic?"

Cristiano's worried voice sounded behind him, but Cyril didn't look back.He raised his head and looked up at the sky, then took a deep breath.

"I am fine."

When he said this, he turned his head and looked back at Cristiano calmly.

"Didn't we agree before?" He smiled for no reason, but there was a kind of calming power.The two looked at each other, and Cristiano saw the stubbornness and stubbornness he was familiar with: "We will never lose again."

The game continues.

Cyril was still observing the scene in the frontcourt.

Bayern's defense is very calm.

They don't press too high when attacking, which is actually because they are concerned about defense.There were too many teams falling under the long-range cooperation of Cyril and Cristiano, and Bayern did not dare to press easily, exposing the gap in the backcourt.

In this case, Bayern's defense is even more reliable.The layer-by-layer chain defense allowed them to firmly block the attack from Real Madrid. Even if they were lucky enough to break through the midfield, the defender's relief did not stop them. They also have a world-class goalkeeper.

Cyril knew that many people were waiting for the penalty shootout.Since the stalemate between Real Madrid and Bayern has lasted for nearly two hours, there is no reason for this balance to be broken so easily in the last 3 minutes.

But he doesn't care.

He didn't want to figure out how much advantage Real Madrid would have if it was a penalty shootout, whether he was lucky enough to win the game, whether God was on Real Madrid's side... This situation where he couldn't decide the outcome of the game by himself It is what Cristiano hates the most, and it is also what Cyril hates the most.

He doesn't like it.

I don't like a game where I can't control the outcome, I don't like to leave the outcome to fate, I don't want to be in such an important game... just watching that person, praying to God for good luck.

In Cyril's memory, that person was proud and invincible.Passionate and calm.Players, media, team, language, psychology... He can use all the conditions he can use to get everything he wants in a leisurely manner.

So invincible, so invincible——

"We will be the champions of the Portuguese Super League next season!"

"Please don't call me arrogant, but I'm a European champion, so I guess I'm a special one."

"Chelsea are the best team, and if that sounds a little megalomaniac, then forgive me: Chelsea now have the best manager."

"The more people hate you, the more people love you; the more people want to defeat you, it proves how strong you are."

Cyril waded the ball forward in the middle.

Ribery tried to forcefully slow down his speed by pulling on his clothes, but Cyril stepped aside slightly, and the corner of his clothes slipped past the Bayern striker's fingertips like a slippery loach. In the next second, Cyril It has already passed by him in a flash, keep moving forward!

Schweinsteiger only pondered for a moment, and immediately chased him out!

It has to be said that Cyril's various "convicts" can easily affect the judgment of the opponent's players-less than a year has passed since he broke the Barcelona defense with five players in a row, and Bayern players can't forget it.

Therefore, even if he knew that he would reveal the gap behind him if he chased him out, Schweinsteiger couldn't care about this at the moment.Fortunately, with his forward pressure, Lahm also quickly moved forward, filling the gap he exposed.

Porto first entered the first team and was made things difficult by Vega. The man told him——

"I'm a football coach. For players, what I value is ability, not anything else."

Injured and hospitalized during the season, missed the team toast, but someone knocked on the door of the hospital ward on that silent night——

"I have worked hard for half the season, but in the end I can only stand outside the TV and watch my teammates celebrate. Is it a pity?"

Thinking of the morning when Cristiano and Cristiano were caught in the face by the other party and forced to come out of the closet, the man blurted out worriedly, asking for words of comfort——

"Last night, I heard the news that there was an earthquake in China... Did you hurt anyone?"

Thinking of the afternoon when they went their separate ways, what the man secretly said to the assistant coach——

"This eagle is a little silly, but fortunately it is very obedient, and it is not afraid of hardship and tiredness. You teach it, and it will learn obediently. Just like this, slowly, teach him to fly, teach him to hunt, and give him shelter from the wind and rain. , not let the ferocious birds and beasts outside hurt it, so that it can grow up healthily and slowly step by step."

"Now, it's time to let go."

Sometimes Cyril also wonders if everyone is like this.

When you were young, you always thought he was omnipotent, but as you got older, you gradually realized.In fact, everything is like birth, old age, sickness and death in the world.The father you are proud of and regards as a god will gradually fade away those dazzling halos, tired and embarrassed, and gray-haired.

it's fine.

After Cyril deftly buckled the football to his left foot, Gustavo's outstretched right foot suddenly flew into the air. Seeing that the stabbing failed, the latter directly changed the interception into a interception. Just now he stood firm, and then Then he shoveled at the opponent's feet neatly!However, the person who was defended so fiercely picked up the football at the same time, raised his foot and sent the football out!

It's ok.

This decisive pass drove his feet out of the area of ​​Gustavo's shovel, and even the football flew from the ground into the air.

It's ok.

After completing the passing action, Cyril only looked at the front field, and didn't care about Gustavo and Schweinsteiger, who were sticking to each other. He didn't even look back, and rushed towards the Bayern penalty area at lightning speed!

From now on, I will be your reliance.
