It has been more than a year since Redondo left Spain, during which time Guti has changed a lot.

Without Redondo by his side, Guti seems to have matured a lot overnight.

On the playing field, from striker to midfielder, and even played as a midfielder, he has performed very well in every position.

When Guti played as a striker, people would lament how good a striker he is with a sense of goal.

When he plays in midfield, people will lament that he has a clear mind and can completely become the team's midfield commander.

And when he kicked the midfielder, some people would exclaim, as if they saw Redondo appearing on the court while he was recuperating.

Whether it is physical fitness or experience, Guti is not as good as Redondo, but when he is running and sniping opponents, he can still see Redondo's shadow.

"You must have studied with Redondo for a long time, right?" A reporter asked.

Guti replied with a smile at the time: "Maybe when I switched bodies with him, maybe I tried to play as him."

Naturally, no one believed Guti's statement, and everyone regarded it as his kind of humor.

After trying so many positions, Guti basically stabilized his position in the position of the midfielder in the end.Attacking can score goals as a forward, defending can help the backcourt defend opponents, and connect the whole team in the midfield.

When Guti first played this position, the German media said a few sour words, nothing more than the best free man is their football emperor, and the one who is worse than Beckenbauer is their Sammer, a I'm afraid that the Spaniard's kicking of the Libero is grandstanding, and Handan is learning to walk, so it's better to kick back to the previous position earlier.

But when Guti used his outstanding performance in this year's Champions League final to make great contributions to the team winning the championship trophy again, he also successfully slapped those media who questioned him.Especially when Beckenbauer said to the media: "Guti is great, I am optimistic about his future as a free agent, and he may become a player beyond me." After that, the German media changed their previous opinion. Ridiculous, all praised Guti one-sidedly.In their view, their emperor has already admitted, so they can only follow and praise.

Guti's outstanding performance is not only reflected in the club, but also in the national team. He has gradually become the midfield commander of the national team.

Such a performance, as long as there is no injury, Guti is no surprise selected to participate in the [-] European Cup Spanish national team squad.

This European Cup held in the first year of the new century was the first time that two countries co-hosted it. Spain performed well in the qualifiers and reached the final match.

Spain are in Group C with Norway, Yugoslavia and Slovenia in the main match.Due to the difference in level, Spain did not qualify from this group by accident.

Then in the quarter-finals, they will face World Cup runners-up France.

In the World Cup held on home soil, the French team made it to the final.The French team composed of Zidane, Deschamps and others has the right time, place and equipment. It was very hopeful to win a Hercules Cup at home.

But it is a pity that the French team met the Argentine team led by Redondo, which had no internal strife and the players were very united.In the end, they could only watch the Argentine take away the Hercules Cup with hatred at their home court.

After two years, the lineup of the French team has basically remained. They participated in the European Cup with this lineup. Before the start of the European Cup, they were considered to be strong contenders for the championship.

On the other hand, the Spanish team, except for a somewhat ironic title of king of the qualifiers, their record in major competitions is not as good as that of the French team.

However, with Raul Guti, the twin stars of Real Madrid, Morientes who has performed well in England, and the Spanish team with the old and new defenses of Hierro and Puyol, it is not so useless, at least in this game. Before the start of the fight, the evaluations of the media and experts were not so one-sided, thinking that Spain had no chance of winning.

"The less they are optimistic about us, the more we have to show them a beautiful game, so that they can have nothing to say to the scoreboard after nine or ten minutes!" Guti said to his teammates in the restaurant the day before the game explain.

Transferred from Real Madrid to Valencia, Canizares, who was bullied by Guti in the European final, couldn't help but rolled his eyes, and said to Hierro who was listening with a smile: "You just let him take the captain Have you said everything you need to say?"

"What's the matter, he will learn to speak sooner or later." Hierro said not too concerned.

Carney turned to look at him: "Have you decided? I thought you were more optimistic about Raul?"

"Raul is too gentle. Maybe Real Madrid needs a captain who can inherit the spirit of Juanito. And I think it's good for Raul to be the vice-captain to help Jose." Hierro still smiled.

Carney cursed inwardly, this guy is getting more and more cunning as he gets older, the former tough guy on the court has long since turned into a cunning old man.Then he cast a sympathetic look at Raul, who was listening to Guti's impassioned words seriously, and who was also helping him. It's so pitiful, the naive Raul must not have thought of his tragic fate of helping Guti wipe his ass in the future.Alas, ignorance is bliss!

Of course, on the day of the game, coach Camacho and captain Hierro encouraged the players before the game.

Due to Camacho's character, even if he was a player, he couldn't say anything except a few words of cheer and encouragement to encourage the players. On the contrary, what he said was not as easy to reach people's hearts as Captain Hierro's.

"Let's go!" After helping the coach and encouraging the players, Hierro got up first and led his teammates out of the locker room.

Walking in the aisle, Guti secretly whispered to Raul: "I think our coach sometimes has less leadership than Captain Hierro."

Raul was a little thankful that Camacho hadn't followed up, and Guti said in a lower voice: "Keep your voice down, it won't be good if you are heard."

"I heard it as soon as I heard it. At worst, I will be expelled from the national team! Hmph, then I will go to the United States to find Fernando." Guti muttered.

His voice was so small that only Raul could hear him, but Raul still looked around worriedly: "Didn't Fernando say that you are not allowed to go to America?"

"Hey, why can't Real Madrid go to the United States to play games, then I have a reason to go to the United States." Guti complained again.

He also left a message on the phone before saying that he hoped that Redondo would return to Europe to watch his game if possible, but Redondo still did not give him a response.Alas, they haven't seen each other for more than a year. If Redondo doesn't respond to him again, he really can't help but break the agreement with Redondo and run to the United States.At that time, he must have pressed the old man on the bed for several days and nights, making him unable to get out of bed.

"You should concentrate on the game. The French team is not so easy to deal with. The midfielder led by Zidane and Makelele, I really don't want to be against him."

Guti rolled his eyes, Makelele was a strong aid introduced by Real Madrid to replace Redondo.The Frenchman has a good personality and gets along well with his teammates, but Guti has always been distant from him.Guti is so awkward because he recognizes Makelele's strength on the one hand, and on the other hand he minds that he replaced Redondo. Even if Redondo is injured because of himself, he doesn't like to be in the position of Real Madrid's midfielder. No longer an Argentinian, but a black and hard Frenchman.

When Guti and Raul were talking about Makelele, Makelele was also talking about his club teammate Raul Guti and others with his national team teammate Zidane and others.

"Raul's touch in front of the goal is very sensitive, only a little worse than the Italians, but he is not tall, fast or strong, and he needs to rely on his teammates. If he can cut off his connection with his teammates, he can be blocked."

"Claude, blocking the connection between Raul and his teammates, isn't that what you are good at? You are still teammates in the club, you should have experience in defending him?" someone asked.

Makelele smiled bitterly: "I have never been a teammate with Morientes. It is said that the connection between him and Raul is very tacit. Besides, if it is someone else, I am sure, but if If it is Guti, I may not be sure enough."

"The successor that Beckenbauer himself admitted? I always think that guy's face is more attractive than his skills."

After one person said this, there was immediately a burst of laughter.But neither Makelele nor Zidane laughed. Makelele had been teammates with Guti and knew that the guy was hard to defend against. Zidane had also done his homework and studied Guti's games. He thought Guti was very good. It's hard to figure out, if you want to study this guy thoroughly, I'm afraid he will lose all the few hairs left.

Because of Makelele's words, when the two sides lined up to greet each other, the players of the French team paid special attention to Guti.

"Have they never seen a handsome guy like me?" After shaking hands, Guti complained to Raul when he and Raul walked to their respective positions.

Raul rolled his eyes, then turned his gaze to Morientes who was walking not far from them.The two of them try to keep a certain distance in public, but on the pitch, because of the position, they are very close, and it feels really good to play together.

As if sensing Raul's gaze, Morientes turned his head and gave him a big smile.

"Cut, dog boy!" Guti muttered, and quickly ran to his position. His position was further back than Raul's, and he had to run a few more steps.

Raul ignored Guti. Anyway, his relationship and career are going smoothly. Now he is very sympathetic to Guti, who has endocrine disorders and lacks comfort.

However, as Guti's friend for many years, he is still very fond of Guti, and plans to call Redondo in the United States after the game to find out what he has to say.He has disclosed information about Guti to Redondo for more than a year, so he should have some face with Redondo.

It's just that Raul's idea doesn't have to be realized. He doesn't have to drag his tired body to call Redondo to fight wits after nine or 10 minutes of difficult games.

Not long after the match between the two sides started, because both sides were in the trial stage, the match was not intense. In order to prevent the fans watching the game from getting bored, the live broadcast camera turned to the stands.The director intends to search for those fans who have distinctive outfits, or sexy and beautiful female fans, or celebrities who came to watch the game today.

Such a search allowed the director, who had trained his sharp eyes through countless live games, to discover a certain celebrity hidden among the fans.

It was an ordinary stand for fans, and it was also an ordinary stand for the Spanish side.However, the audience who was wearing a hat and sunglasses and sitting calmer than others still caught the director's attention.The director signaled to zoom in on the camera, and before he could identify who that person was, he heard someone shouting, "It's Redondo!"

The director watched it carefully for another second, then peeled off the disguise of the hat and sunglasses, and recognized a certain Argentine star who had been away from the game for more than a year.

The live camera gave a close-up of Redondo who was hidden among the fans, and the commentary was also prompted, and immediately pointed out to the audience where Redondo was.

The figure of Redondo also appeared on the big screen at the scene. The Argentine was originally watching the game quietly, but he heard the noise around him, as well as people's vague sights, and he could clearly see what appeared on the big screen. After revealing himself, he finally confirmed helplessly that he had been exposed.

Now that it was exposed, Redondo was not so pretentious, he took off his hat and sunglasses, and waved his hand as a greeting to the fans at the scene.

Cheers sounded from around him and spread to the entire arena.

Redondo is very prestigious in Spain. The prince of Real Madrid has won the respect not limited to Real Madrid fans. The Spanish fans present today gave him warm applause.

Similarly, there are Redondo fans among the neutral fans, and they are also very excited to be in the same stadium as Redondo to watch the game.

Even if the remaining half of the French fans will hate the Argentine team led by Redondo for snatching the Hercules Cup from their gate two years ago, but after seeing this player leave the stadium for a long time, he is about to be directly defined by the media as retiring due to injury I was quite happy for him when he was a star.

For more than a year, Redondo has been staying in the United States. He lives in seclusion and is rarely caught by the media. Now that he can come to Europe from the United States to watch the European Cup, does it mean that his injury has healed?

Many people's attention has shifted from the game itself to Redondo, and even the players on both sides of the game have been slightly attracted.

Makelele looked at the figure of a colleague on the big screen, his eyes became sharper.Before going to Real Madrid, Redondo's name has been on the other midfielders.After he went to Real Madrid, he was inevitably compared with his predecessor by fans and the media.Makelele also knows that even among Real Madrid teammates, many people will compare him and Redondo in their hearts.

In fact, Makelele will inevitably compare himself with Redondo. He hopes that one day he can beat Redondo once more on the court.However, it is clear that this goal cannot be achieved for a while.Now that Redondo appears in the stands, does it mean that his injury has completely healed?

"Then let me play a wonderful game under your watch!" Makelele said silently to Redondo in the stands.

It can be said that the appearance of Redondo has greatly improved Makelele's strength.

Similarly, some people in the Spanish team were greatly stimulated by Redondo's arrival.

Guti's eyes were almost shining, he was really happy, happy with Redondo's arrival.But it was a little awkward, why didn't his Fernando tell him in advance?In that way, he can also make a very handsome and handsome hairstyle in advance, so that Redondo can take a good look at it.

"Forget it, I'd better perform well to make up for my lost handsome value!" Guti secretly made a plan in his heart.

So next, the French team's defensive strength in this aspect has been significantly improved with Makelele's extraordinary performance. In the same way, Guti also seemed to be very excited about Spain.

The referee blew his whistle, just after Raul got the ball, he was brought down by Makelele as soon as he turned around.Obviously, there was no friendship between the two Real Madrid teammates just now. On this occasion, they are just opponents.

After the referee whistled, Makelele silently pulled Raul up, then silently accepted the referee's warning, and then ran to his position.

Watching Makelele go away, Raul felt a little helpless.He was not in good form in the game today, or the opponent looked at him very uncomfortable, so he was seen as dead.Receiving the ball from the backcourt and cooperating with Morientes are not smooth enough. Obviously his Real Madrid teammate has successfully seen through his offensive line.If he wants to perform, he will have to make some changes next.

"Don't worry about Raul, I will definitely pass the ball to you later." Guti came over and patted Raul on the shoulder to comfort him.He also saw clearly the dilemma Raul faced after the opening game, and he had already thought about how to pass the ball to Raul just now to help him get back to his state.

Guti also has his own thoughts today. Today, Redondo watched the game from the stands, and Guti wanted to perform better in all aspects, so that he would be more happy watching from the stands.

In addition, Redondo has not been in touch with him, and he is a little worried, worried that Redondo will meet someone better than him in the United States, so that he can empathize with him.

Of course Guti is also very narcissistic, is there anyone better and more handsome than him?Even if there is, he will definitely be able to snatch Redondo back!

Guti's comfort made Raul feel a lot better, but maybe Morientes' worried eyes in the distance are more beneficial to him.

"It will be us to win!" Raul also said to Guti.

"Sure!" Guti nodded with a smile.

After the pair of Real Madrid twin stars comforted each other, they quickly returned to their positions.Words are powerless, only goals are the most convincing.

But it was the French team that scored first.

Trezeguet of the French team was brought down by the Spanish defender near the Spanish penalty area. The referee gave France a free kick.

Zidane took the free kick. Instead of shooting directly, he played a tactic and passed the ball into the penalty area. Vieira competed for the top in the penalty area and sent the ball into the goal with a header.

[-]-[-], France leads!

"Spain made a mistake in defense just now, and their defenders were a little edgy just now. Although Hierro is in good form and is the pinnacle of the defense, he still can't do it alone. Guti is also good in the free man position, but As a striker, even if he has learned defense from Redondo, he is still better at attacking than defending. This Spanish team lacks a Redondo!" A commentator summed up Spain's conceded goal.

The camera was also aimed at Redondo in the stands at the right time. The scene where Spain conceded a goal just now, Redondo also saw clearly from the stands, and then he also frowned.From the perspective of a defensive expert, Spain's defense on this ball is indeed problematic.However, there is still plenty of time, and Spain still has a chance to equalize or even exceed the score. On this point, Redondo is very confident in Spain, or Guti.

Guti did not disappoint Redondo's confidence, and it was he who scored the equalizer.

After the Spanish player steals the ball in his own half, he passes the ball directly to the frontcourt. Raul runs back and throws off the defenders to catch the ball, and turns around to make a pick.

At that time, Makelele, who was defending Morientes from a distance, changed his eyes and was ready to come over to respond to the defense.

But it was too late. Guti, who should be closer to his own half than Raul, went deeper into the hinterland of the French team than Raul. He took advantage of the situation and controlled the ball at his feet.

Raul's pass was far away, and when Guti received the ball, he was almost single-handed.Djorkaf, who was closest to him, rushed over quickly, trying to keep people or the ball with fouls at all costs.But Guti started quickly, threw him away, and calmly kicked the ball at the French team's bald goalkeeper Barthez's crotch.

Barthez made a saving action, but Guti hit the ball so hard that he didn't have time to save the ball, and after the ball flew past his crotch quickly, he made a frightened one The movement of covering the crotch came.As a goalkeeper, he can still directly feel the speed of the ball. If Guti is more malicious and kicks upwards, Barthez feels that his happy life should be waved goodbye to him.

Watching the ball go into the net, Guti finally clenched his fists and roared to the sky.

The Spanish fans at the scene cheered loudly, and the Spanish players also gathered around to celebrate with Guti.

Guti got rid of his teammates, turned and rushed to the stands where the Spanish fans were.He blew kisses to the stands and punched his heart hard with his fists.

"After the goal, the hero of the goal, Guti, greeted the stands. It seems that he intends to give the ball to the loyal Spanish fans." The commentary highly praised Guti.

In the stands, Redondo smiled and applauded like the Spanish fans around him.Afterwards, he gently put his hand on the position of his heart, which is the position where Guti hit hard with his fist. If Guti lifted his jersey, people would see that there was a lifelike eagle who wanted to soar into the sky.

Guti's celebration just now was interpreted as dedicated to the fans, but only Guti and Redondo knew that the goal was a gift from Guti to Redondo.

The author has something to say: Brother Dong came back, and then secretly showed his affection in public.

In the European Cup, France actually defeated Spain, then marched all the way to the final, and finally defeated Italy. Of course, the plot required, and I sacrificed France after the World Cup.

Visually, after writing the European Cup, the main text can almost be finished, and then there are a few extra stories to write.
