shadow striker

Derico's name is a very special existence for every current Barcelona player.Although he was not born in the Barcelona youth academy, he has influenced a whole generation of Barcelona players.

Moreover, Dericalo's name has special meaning for fans of the entire Spanish La Liga.

A long time ago, some fans jokingly said that the national derby between Barcelona and Real Madrid has a relationship of ebb and flow in terms of season results.For example, before Barcelona's Dream II Dynasty was formed, and when Barcelona's Dream II Dynasty declined, it was the absolute prosperity of Real Madrid.However, no matter what time it is, if Barcelona just fight their faces, they will definitely lose a lot to Real Madrid.Moreover, Barcelona's players are not only a lot worse than Real Madrid, but even the player's height and the beauty index of the player's girlfriend are more than one level behind Real Madrid.

However, the Brazilian raised the handsomeness index of the Barcelona players by a whole level by himself. He is considered to be another beauty miracle of the Brazilian national team after Kaka.

Although, it may be a bit inappropriate to say it this way, but just how outstanding Dericallo's appearance is, perhaps this is enough to let people know a thing or two.

However, such a player also possesses superb skills and the ability to organize offenses that players of the same age can't match, which makes people talk about it even more.

Of course, among the new generation of Barcelona players, the self-produced Igles and Antis of the Barcelona youth academy also have very eye-catching appearances.But in the eyes of most female fans, compared with Dericalo, Igles is not good enough at all, and Antis, who is famous for his delicate English and Spanish, is even more like a child.

However, no matter how great he was, how brilliant he was, and what kind of legendary aura he had, the 29-year-old Dricaro finally stepped down from the altar and was sold by Barcelona as an abandoned general. Serie A team Torino.

The day he left, it was cold in Barcelona, ​​famous for its winter warmth.His Barcelona team-mates traveled and sent him to the airport, where he caused such a stir that they nearly blocked the passage.

In the end, the Brazilian just left his fans and teammates with the same gentle smile as before.

Leave and go to Turin, Italy.

In the winter transfer period of that year, Torino made another move to buy three players they desperately needed at this time.Those are the organizational midfielders, the Brazilian DeCarlo. The 19-year-old Italian striker Garay, and the very individual midfielder, the Italian Tiar.

After the winter break, the league has entered the second half, and the situation has also undergone tremendous changes.

Teams that have qualified for the Champions League began to gradually shift their focus from the league to the Champions League.On the other hand, as the European Championship is approaching, many players in the five major leagues responded to the call of the national team and began to travel back and forth on this piece of European land.Some lower-ranked teams also began to show almost terrifying strength, fighting for relegation.

At this time, upsets in the league have become a frequent occurrence.

As for Turin, which is destined to miss the Champions League this season, they advanced all the way as a dark horse in the Coppa Italia and successfully advanced to the semi-finals of the Coppa Italia.

If there are no accidents, they will... stand in the Italian Cup finals of the 2023-2024 season in mid-to-late May.

At that time, their opponent will be Italy's traditional strong team Roma, or Florence.

[In the second round of the Champions League quarter-finals that just ended yesterday, Barcelona played against APOEL at home!This time Greek mythology is not staged again!On the Campno Stadium, Igles successfully staged a hat-trick and scored three goals alone! 】

From a detached villa with a garden, the UEFA Champions League fixture was broadcast by a Catalan TV station.The young man who was being pestered by a little girl with light-colored hair looked in a daze at the living room on the first floor where the TV was located.

"Huang...Huanghuang don't ignore me! Anji wants to play with me!"

The little girl was still very young, very small, she looked like she was about three or four years old.Jumping up may not be able to hug the waist of the black-haired young man.So when she found that the person who was playing with her was actually distracted and ignored her, all she could do was treat that person's legs as a tree, and kept climbing up, trying to reach the other person's chest, Get his attention.

"Well, little princess, I'm sorry, I was listening to the football game, and I was fascinated by it."

"Huanghuang! Dad said, you have to be serious in everything you do. So you can't go to the ball game while playing with me!"

Yue Yihuang, who came back to his senses, discovered the dangerous action of the little princess, and hurriedly hugged her up. How could he know that the little girl taught him a serious lesson, which made Yue Yihuang really dumbfounded.

Yes, the place where Yue Yihuang was at this time was the new home of Derico in Turin.And the little beauty in his arms is also the daughter of Dericallo.It may be that Yue Yihuang helped him when he first arrived in the new environment. This little princess liked him very much and was very attached to him. She almost said to her father: "Dad, I won't marry you when I grow up. Yes, I want to marry Huang Huang!"

"Lesa, you can't be rude."

Dricaro, who was in the living room, heard voices in the small garden, came out, and saw his daughter acting like a spoiled child to Yue Yihuang, and interrupted the little princess's unreasonable troubles with a funny voice.

This made Yue Yihuang turn around quickly, and saw his childhood idol leaning on the door and looking towards this side.Suddenly, Yue Yihuang's body stiffened due to nervousness...

"De... Dericaro..."

"Thank you, Yihuang. My Leisa is too clingy to you."

At this time, the weather has turned warm, and the breath of spring has overshadowed the cold of winter.Dericalo looked downright casual in just a white turtleneck.In the room with floor heating, he didn't even wear socks, and his body exuded a calm atmosphere.His facial features are deep, but with an unexpected and fresh meaning.

If you just look at his face, that kind of gentleness has a kind of...noble temperament that makes people feel unapproachable. It is almost impossible to imagine that he is a top football player in the world.

Even... you can only find that Brazilian enthusiasm in him when he smiles at you.

Dricaro and Yue Yihuang spoke Portuguese alone, and Spanish alone, and there was no obstacle in communication.However, the pronunciation that obviously belongs to two languages ​​makes the conversation between the two people hilarious.

In fact, Dricaro can speak Spanish, and he has been in Barcelona for nearly ten years, and he speaks Spanish very well.But between him and Yue Yihuang, he chose Portuguese and Spanish for the conversation tacitly, which became a great spectacle in the Turin team.

Cassel, who is part of the Spanish trio, said that such conversations were very interesting, so he tried to get acquainted with Dericalo by trying to speak in Spanish and Portuguese.However, Cassel's half-baked Spanish really couldn't make a leap-forward dialogue with Portuguese. The two of them were talking about Dericalo and then returned to Spanish, and his Spanish was extremely good. That's right, compared to Yue Yihuang, Cassel, and even Nilva's Spanish, which is more standard, it really frustrated the Spanish trio in the Turin team.

Although everyone doesn't say it, everyone understands in their hearts that now Torino can only be regarded as a local team in Italy. It is basically not well-known in Europe. Compared with Barcelona, ​​it is even worse. levels.

Therefore, before the arrival of Derikalo, everyone was still guessing what kind of big name such a former superstar would play in the team.

After all, Francisco was also very good in the Premier League before he came, but compared with Dere Carlo, it is still a long distance between a new star and a superstar.

But really when the winter break passed and everyone returned to Turin, everyone discovered that the Brazilian was unexpectedly gentle.Not only is he mild-tempered, but he doesn't have the pretensions of a superstar at all. More importantly, when a midfielder like Abida asks him about his football experience with a fluke mentality, Dricaro will have no reservations. Explain to him more carefully, and point out to him the technical points that need to be paid attention to.

In this way, Dricaro, who is easygoing, soon settled in Turin.

Even, as one of the few men with families in the team, his wife who is a doctor will come to the team to see everyone from time to time, and even bring homemade snacks, so that the bachelors in the Turin team They are all envious.

However, Yue Yihuang could clearly feel how sad Dricaro must be when he was forced to leave the club he had played for for ten years.

Seeing Dericalo take little princess Leisa away from his arms, Yue Yihuang was extra shy.He walked into the house with Dericalo, and was sitting on the sofa in Dericalo's house with a little restraint, and even more respectfully took the black tea that Dericalo poured for him.That nervous look made Dricaro couldn't help laughing.

"As I said, I don't have to be so formal here. In fact, I haven't been able to thank you enough for your help."

"No no, this is what I want to do for you. You don't have to feel sorry for it."

Hearing that Dricaro actually wanted to thank him, Yue Yihuang felt even more uncomfortable, and explained to the other party very nervously.The little princess, Leisa, ran over after being put down by Dricaro, grabbed Yue Yihuang's knee, and laughed and played by herself.

Helping Leisa before she was about to fall to the ground, Yue Yihuang felt that he couldn't speak coherently under the gaze of Dricaro.

"Actually... being able to talk face-to-face with you like this already makes me feel... very happy. When I was in the Barcelona youth training camp, I always liked to sneak to Barcelona for training with Igles The base watches you play."

"I know. There will always be a few brats sneaking over to watch our training."

"At that time, I always thought, grow up quickly, then maybe it is possible to play with you in the same stadium. To be honest, I have always longed to be in the Barcelona first team, longing to be able to Put on the same jersey as you, play with you. In this world, there will not be a better midfielder than you."

Lowering his head and taking a sip of the hot black tea, Yue Yihuang said these words with a smile.Even though he lowered his eyelashes, people could still feel the longing in his eyes.

Yue Yihuang, who said these words, fell into his own memory, and even... Derico did not refute the sentence "There will never be a better midfielder than you", and fell into deep thought, as if Recalling his most prosperous era in the Barcelona dynasty.

Then, he heard the young and promising shadow striker speak of a future he had never dared to look forward to since the day he left Barcelona.

"Until the end, I wasn't good enough and I couldn't stay at Barcelona. But now, in Turin, I've found everything again, and you're here... in Turin. Please believe me, Francis and I Coe can do a good job. And Cassel, Nilva, Abida, everyone in the Torino team is good enough! Please also... do your best to help us win.

Maybe next year... next year we can go to the Champions League.There, we can meet every opponent you have faced before.Then... you can wear the Torino uniform and beat them again.The era that belongs to you... shouldn't and can't pass so early.You still owe Brazil a World Cup, don't you? "
