Frenzy [football]

At the end of the day's training, the Atlético players returned to their dressing room, intending to take a shower before heading home.Have dinner with the family, or something else.But at this time, Enzo, the captain of Atletico Madrid, asked everyone to come over. He had something to say to his teammates.

Hearing this sentence, Javier, who seemed a little listless after the training, looked up at him, and then looked at Enzo with hesitation and suspicion as if he had a premonition.The Atlético captain, wearing the No. 14 jersey on the pitch, looked at his current teammate who will play for their city rivals next season, and smiled to signal him to stay calm.

These Atletico Madrid players may more or less guess that their team captain will say what the "Marca" said, Javier will transfer to Real Madrid.But no one thought that... Enzo would be so straightforward.

"I don't know if you have read the latest issue of "Marca". It said that Javier will transfer to Real Madrid after the end of this season."

When everyone moved closer to Enzo and spontaneously formed a circle, the group of Atletico players still had some whispered conversations among each other.But when Enzo said these words, the locker room became instantly silent.Some people subconsciously want to take a look at Javier, and then they will find...their golden boy's complexion is not good at the moment, and it can even be said to be a little bad.

This is not surprising. Even if Javier's calmness on the court is beyond his years, he is still a boy who is only 21 years old this year.It would really make him feel a lot of pressure when something like this happened.

"For this matter, I want to say that this time the "Marca" did not make it up. It is indeed true. At least, before this report came out, the club did intend to let Javier transfer this summer. The plan to join Real Madrid."

After saying this, many Atletico Madrid players looked at each other, and then one of them couldn't help but asked aloud: "So, this is the club's decision? Do you have to sell Javier?"

Enzo didn't answer his club teammate's question directly, he just gestured for everyone to listen to him first.So everyone turned their attention to Enzo again.

"In fact, Real Madrid already wanted to buy Javier at this time last year. And Javier told me about it at the time. I am very grateful for his trust. Javier was hesitant at the time. And finally made the decision to leave Atletico Madrid one year later. There is nothing to say about it. Everyone knows that in modern football, there will not be a few people who can only play for one team all their lives. Everyone will have his own choice But as long as he is in Atletico Madrid, he is an Atletico Madrid man. Like all of us, he hopes or desires to help the team win everything we can win. I want to say that there are really many, many players in the world. Professional players. But a team can only have a maximum size of [-] players. It is really not easy for us to be teammates and play for the same club.”

When he said this, Enzo paused for a while, he didn't look at the amazingly talented young striker who chose a different path from him.But when Javier looked at Enzo, he would find that the reliable man had a smile on his lips.

"Now, there are only three weeks until the end of the season. I hope that all of us can cherish these last three weeks. Who knows who will leave next season? As long as we We are still teammates, we should treat each other like our own brothers! Then, next season, if we become opponents, when we meet again on the court..."

Having said that, Enzo finally looked at Javier, and showed a smile that would make people's eyes warm. Jinlang's son said, "I will definitely not show mercy."

Hearing these words, Javier exhaled a hot breath from his throat, he separated his teammates, walked towards Enzo with a smile, and gave him a strong hug.And Enzo gave Javier a hug with the same force, and patted Javier on the shoulder.

When they let go of each other, Enzo looked at his club teammates again, "If anyone encounters Javier on the court next season, I won't show mercy to that guy. Just wait for the cold violence in the locker room!"

Enzo's threat can be said to be a bit of a bluff and not in place at all, so that everyone laughed after hearing this sentence.And Javier went to his teammates, to these teammates who will become opponents next season, clapped hands with them one by one, and hugged each other.

Well, this group of boys who squandered their youth on the court already have another reason why they must not lose.

At this time, their head coach Alberto was standing at the door of their locker room. When Enzo made this speech to his teammates, Alberto just opened the door of the locker room, but when he When he heard Enzo's voice, he decided to hear what the captain he had chosen would say to his teammates.

And the head coach finally left with relief.

It is said that this man from Guti's family will return to Real Madrid one day?

Let that group go.At least for now, he is from Atletico Madrid.

It was on the second day that the Porto team arrived in Madrid, the capital of Spain.And this also means that the second round of the battle between Atletico Madrid and Porto has entered the countdown.Maybe the fans haven't been able to feel it yet, but this battle...is destined to be full of tragic meaning.

Both Porto and Atletico Madrid have their own beliefs that they must advance.

But Porto's belief, Atletico Madrid knows.But the belief of Atletico Madrid is not known to the Porto team.

The team from the beautiful port city of Porto in Portugal can only feel that Atletico Madrid in this game... is different from before.This is still the well-trained Atletico Madrid team, but it is different from the previous battle.They became deeper, but the blue flame seemed to be ignited at the touch of a button.

Almost when the game whistle sounded, they launched the most violent attack on Porto's half-court position. They hardly needed any adaptation time, and they had already brought out their best side.This kind of opening undoubtedly made the fans who formed the huge words "Come on Atletico Madrid! Come on! The best Atletico Madrid" feel excited, and detonated the atmosphere of the audience at the beginning of the game.

That is to say, under the indiscriminate bombardment of Atletico Madrid, Javier, the recent topic character, broke through the gate of Porto first in the opening 9 minutes.

Immediately afterwards, there was an incredible shot from Enzo.Enzo was far from the goal when he initiated that shot!Far, far!At that moment, no one would suspect that the defensive midfielder wearing the No. 14 jersey should want to initiate a pass!

But just when Enzo crossed the halfway line by six or seven meters, he kicked extremely decisively...

The ball flew nearly half of the pitch, and then fell into the goal of the Porto team! !Just when this goal appeared, many people already understood... This goal will definitely be selected as the top ten shots in La Liga this season!Almost all the fans stood up abruptly at that moment, and almost all Atletico Madrid fans held up the square pieces of paper that had been placed on their seats when they entered the field. A line of Spanish words with red and white slashes in the ocean.

[Come on Atletico Madrid! 】

【come on!The best Atletico Madrid! ! 】

When the game reached No.70 minutes, Javier created his second goal in this game! !This is Atletico Madrid's third goal in this game! !The score on the field became 3:0 because of Javier's goal! !

This means... Atletico Madrid has already tied Porto on the total score in the Europa League semi-finals between home and away! !

But that's not all! !

At that moment, the Spanish commentator shouted excitedly: "Now! We have temporarily won over Porto with the advantage of away goals with the same total score!! As long as we maintain this score until the end of the game! Atlético de Madrid will be the winners of this Europa League semi-final!!"

As the game passed minute by minute, the Spanish broadcast commentator's voice became more and more excited.

But in the 87th minute, it was the short-legged winger wearing the No. 99 jersey, and it was him... once again creating a shot for Porto.When all the players were seriously declining in physical strength, it was this boy who created three key goals in the first leg of the game that stood out from the crowd.

With his heart-pounding jerks, lithe footwork, and a kick that's as natural as breathing and suddenly, it's hard to defend against a nightmarish shot. .

Yes, it's a nightmare.

The nightmare of all Atlético Madrid people.

Lei Yi's shot shattered the victory that was already about to be achieved in front of the eyes of all Atletico Madrid people.

Although Atletico Madrid did not give up until the end, and even dispatched all members, even the goalkeeper rushed out of the goal, using his feet and hands to support the team's attack.But it is precisely because of this that Atletico Madrid's defeat looks so tragic.

In the last 5 minutes including stoppage time, the Porto team finally defended under the retreat of all members.

In other words, the final winner of this game is Porto.

But when everything came to an end, what resounded through Atletico Madrid's home court was applause.This is not applause for the victors.And they're certainly not applause for the underdogs.

Perhaps in this two rounds of home and away games, some are not winners and losers, but only score leaders and score laggards.

Atletico Madrid won this game with a beautiful score of 3:1.

But they still lost the game after all.

So this became the Spanish golden boy Javier's last European club match at Atletico Madrid.For Javier, this will obviously make him feel sorry.And the reason why it becomes a regret is that no matter how much you desire, you will never have a chance to change it and do it all over again.

Football, he is really a sport with blood, glory and pain infinitely intertwined, and has extraordinary charm.

Until the moment when the whistle sounded which meant the end of the game, Javier, who contributed two goals to Atletico Madrid in this game, sat down on the lawn he was familiar with with a sense of confusion.He was a little bewildered and scratched at his dazzling blond hair.Under the close-up of the live camera, the fans who were broadcasting the game could find that the 21-year-old Spanish second striker finally had red eyes and shed tears.

When you see those tears, you will be able to understand the player who will play for another club in three weeks... how eager he is, hoping to win this game for Atletico Madrid .You can also understand what kind of self-blame he has in his heart at this moment.

At this moment, he didn't even know how to deal with those who put up [Come on Atletico Madrid!come on!The best Atletico Madrid! ] Fans of this catchphrase.

In his heart, there is sadness and guilt.

The meaning of this Europa League semi-final second-leg match in his heart, of course, cannot be just an ordinary match.

But in football, everything doesn't always go the way you want it to.

Just like after every away game in the past, Lei Yi found the fans who belonged to them in Porto. He and several of his teammates went to these fans who "risked their lives" to watch them play away Thank you.

Although Porto lost this game, they have the advantage in the total score. They defeated Atletico Madrid, and they have opened the road to the Europa League finals.So in the sad La Pennetta stadium, the Porto fans cheered heartily to the Porto team coming towards them.

The number 99 of the Porto team, who has already used his digital printing machine very skillfully, took off his jersey and showed his T-shirt to the Porto fans who came to watch their game away.On that white T-shirt, there was such a sentence in Portuguese: [Be careful! 】

Seeing this warm reminder clearly, the area where Porto fans gathered burst into applause again. They shouted the name printed on their jersey by Lei Yi and screamed.

And on the lawn of the La Penneta Stadium, Enzo Guti, with the captain's armband on his shoulder, walked towards Javier. He rubbed Javier's head vigorously with him, who had been his teammate for several years, and then looked back. Javier stretched out his hand, pulled the occasionally vulnerable player up from the ground, and patted him on the shoulder as before.

So other Atletico Madrid players walked over slowly to comfort the golden boy who had scored two goals in this game.

The Porto team did not occupy the stadium for too long. After several players thanked the Porto fans who came to watch the away game, they walked to the player tunnel and planned to return to the locker room quickly.

And around the jersey tunnel, it was full of Atlético Madrid fans.

To be honest, when walking there, Lei Yi still took a deep breath to relieve his tension.

He was ready to walk into the tunnel amidst the boos of the home fans, and he even signaled his teammates to leave first, so as not to be implicated by him.

After all, he scored four goals in two games... Porto's winning hero.

If there must be someone in the Porto team, someone who might make Atletico Madrid fans hate him so much that they want to knock him in the back.

Lei Yi felt that that person must be him.

But what Lei Yi didn't expect was that when he walked towards the players' tunnel with his head down, he actually heard sporadic applause close at hand.That surprised Lei Yi very much, he even suspected...that it was a hallucination in his ears.But within a few seconds, the applause became louder and louder.

This is the applause from the away fans to the long and short legs! !

After confirming that point, Lei Yi raised his head in embarrassment, and looked at those completely unfamiliar faces.

The long and short legs stopped, he hesitated for a long time, but...he finally looked at the group of Atletico Madrid fans sitting next to the player tunnel, waved to them, and said loudly in Spanish: "Thank you !!"

After loudly repeating "Thank you!" several times, Lei Yi finally ran into the player tunnel.

That fresh, young, and energetic back is the last picture of Porto team's No. 99 Garrincha left to La Penneta Stadium tonight.

At the same time, another Portuguese Super League team, Sporting Lisbon, which entered the Europa League semi-finals this season, was at their home court. Jose Alvalade defeated the Premier League giants Manchester City, thus qualifying for the season together with Porto. Europa League champions and runners-up finals.The game time will be two weeks later.

Two days later...

Lei Yi: "Dominguez, are you really sure that he will definitely play today?"

Dominguez: "I'm sure, Leiy. And I'm sure they're not only going to play today, they're going to start."

Lei Yi: "But didn't they play the away game of the Champions League semi-final on Thursday, and they narrowly won and eliminated Bayern Munich? The coach of the Turin team will let him play?"

Dominguez: "Leiy...you, have you really read the ticket I sent you?"

Lei Yi: "Ah...ah?"

Italy,

Turin city.

The Brazilian who played for Inter Milan and his former club teammate Leiy set off from Milan this morning and took the intercity train to the third largest city in Italy, which is very close to Milan.

On Friday, Lei Yi traveled with the team to Madrid, Spain.Because they had another domestic league game in Portugal on Saturday, the team flew back to Porto on the night after the game, and helped Porto advance to the Europa League finals in the next day's game Although Lei Yi, the great hero of the game, entered the 23-man roster of the game, he did not start the game.Considering his physical exertion, the Porto coach only let Lei Yi come off the bench in the last twelve minutes of the game.

Garrincha isn't everything after all.

In that game, Lei Yi, who was obviously not in his best form, did not score or assist for the team.

But thoughtful fans didn't blame him.On the contrary, some Porto fans who couldn't go to Madrid, Spain to cheer for the team the day before still gave Thunder Wing a late applause after the game.

And after the Portuguese Super League game ended, Lei Yi secretly got on the plane without telling his team coach, and rushed to Milan, Italy to meet his good friend Domingos without stopping.

Dominguez said that he got two tickets for the Torino game, which is a popular Serie A match. Tickets are hard to come by, and he believed that Thunder Wing would be interested.

Upon hearing this, Lei Yi immediately said, Interested!Interested Of course I'm interested! !I've heard it all!Torino beat Bayern Munich in the UEFA Champions League semi-final! !It is about to launch an impact on their fourth Champions League title! !

Just like that, Lei Yi sent a text message to his mother immediately after the Portuguese Super League match: [Mom, I'm not going home today, I'll be back tomorrow night! 】

Lei Yi's mother quickly replied: "Oh, mom knows, then I won't cook the octopus you like today, I will cook it when you come back."Xiaoyi, are you going to play at a friend's house today? 】Length and short legs: 【Yes!I'm going to Milano Domingos' house! 】Mother Lei: "..."

Long before Lei Yi arrived in Milan by plane, the Brazilian midfielder sent him the ticket with the name on Lei Yi's passport through the communication number.But until the next day, the two came to the home court of the Turin team together. When the new Communale, the length of the legs still seemed to be unable to react. What is the popularity of the "popular Serie A match" that Dominguez said? to the point...

Sure enough, Dominguez felt helpless again after hearing Lei Yi's obviously unable to recover his answer.He couldn't help but sighed and said: "Today's opponent for Turin is Juventus."

"Oh, Juventus, what happened to Juventus?"

At first hearing the question Domingos just asked himself, he thought he had missed some very important information, but when he heard it, it turned out that the Turin team's opponent today is Juventus!Of course he didn't miss this!So long and short legs breathe a sigh of relief.

But it was such an answer that clearly made Domingos feel that... the current problem may be more serious than what he thought just now.

So Dominguez, who has been with Lei Yi in Brazil for half a year and already knows the thinking mode of long and short legs, tentatively asked after thinking for a long time: "Leiy, do you know where Juventus belongs to? National League team?"

Lei Yi: "Hmm...Italy! I've watched the league match between Inter Milan and Juventus!"

Dominguez: "So, do you know which Italian city Juventus is in?"

Lei Yi: "Juventus!"

Dominguez: "..."
