[Football] The Light of Abandoned Sons

Sometimes many things cannot be explained in one sentence.As far as I am concerned, although I was highly praised later, although I myself think that Real Madrid and I are not in an equal position to pay, but if there are regrets, there are still some.

The most beautiful Redondo lives in the hearts of Madrid people, but never in the hearts of Argentines.

In fact, until now, I still can’t tell clearly. During the 1990 World Cup, the then head coach of the national team Bilardo issued a summoning order to me. Is it because I simply want to concentrate on finishing my university studies, or because I was young? I fell in love with Menotti's attacking football and chose not to.

Of course, even I need to admit that I'm a bit of an attacking football guy.So, as it is generally believed in Argentina, "Vilardo is here to eliminate the strikers and wingers, and all the midfielders who can run are used." So I chose to give up, because I uphold my football charm?

This can be regarded as an unsatisfactory start to the World Cup journey. Of course, as we all know, there is also an unsatisfactory ending.

Regarding Passarella and his hair-shaving order, I still think that it is just an excuse for him to refuse to ask me to enter the national team. I really disdain to refute this, and I don't care about the controversy it caused.

Confidence to the extreme is arrogance and conceit. If you think about it now, there may be other solutions with Bilardo, Passarella, and Bielsa, but once a man makes a decision, no matter what the consequences are, he can only accept.

The Champions League final of the 97-98 season was held in Amsterdam. Real Madrid defeated Juventus and won the UEFA Champions League after 32 years in one fell swoop.I still remember the moment I ran on the field with the Argentine flag draped over my shoulders.All the boiling sound of the entire Amsterdam stadium did not reach my ears.I looked at the sky, blinded by the bright lights of the stadium, and I said to myself, Fernando Redondo, this is your World Cup.

Fernando Redondo, you are a pampas eagle that cannot soar over the grasslands, this is your World Cup.

Speaking of Amsterdam, of course there is the boy who came from England to watch the game.Although if I insist, it is clearly stated in the column of being a hometown that Lou van der Ley of Amsterdam, the Netherlands should have regarded this place as his own stronghold, but I can probably understand it when I was in Spain, and he is very secretive about his family.It's not a rebellious rejection, more aptly, it's not wanting to mention it to outsiders.

Although I mostly give people the image of a good boy, I even spread this image all over the world because of one person.But housework is different from individuals after all. Many times when I don’t like the lives of others, I understand that I take too much care of myself, let alone pointing fingers at housework.

What I'm talking about is probably that, even if he shows up in Amsterdam, he will never go home as long as other people are around.

Later I realized that I was wrong.

After winning the Champions League, we will rush back to Madrid that day, which is our base camp, and a new round of grand celebration is about to usher in. - Tens of thousands of Real Madrid fans must have gathered in the Goddess of Harvest Plaza at this time. The high-power searchlights reflected the Real Madrid team logo and the slogan of winning the Champions League. Real Madrid fans—the most enthusiastic and lovely fans must be cheering .The captains showed up with big ear cups, tied the team flags for the goddess of harvest, and offered sincere kisses.

There are also white fireworks, and Queen's "Weare the Champions" singing.

That's our Madrid.

Now, passing through excited fans, on the bus to the airport, I look out the window and suddenly lock on to the scantily clad boy on the corner of the street, watching us dreamily.Even in the crowd celebrating, it is hard not to notice his existence. The boy's gray eyes are filled with joy and pride no less than ours, but what is even more difficult to ignore is the fleeting sadness .

The other Fernando sitting next to me, Hierro followed my gaze and probably saw the boy as well.The boy who was once called "Real Madrid's future goalkeeper" is now called "another Real Madrid's leftover pearl".Hierro hesitated for a moment, considering whether to let the boy get in the car. After all, even if he joined the Premier League, he was still his own child in the eyes of the vice-captain of Real Madrid.

At this moment, a young man next to the boy put his sun hat on his head and pressed down the brim of the hat.I couldn't hear what they said, but I watched the lips that were only visible under the shadows rise slightly.Looking aside, looking at the blond hair that was still dazzling in the dark, and the pair of olive green eyes that couldn't be more impressive, the identity of this person is self-evident.

It's hard to say what the boy was feeling at the time. In Real Madrid, he might be able to share the joy of the 32-year absence, but in Manchester United, he can make his mark even with the Danish goalkeeper.I remembered a sentence, a sentence I once said, a sentence I remembered when I was running on the field, once a man makes a decision, no matter what the consequences are, he can only accept it.

This may be the city where this boy lives, which is full of innocence and maturity.

Ancient and quiet streets, quaint buildings, colorful trams, and bridges of various shapes.Windmills, wooden shoes, canals, small bridges, houseboats, pirates, beautiful buildings, attractive tulips, fields, pastoral songs, all of these constitute a city that is almost a fairy tale.

But it has to be mentioned that Amsterdam is really famous for its "mature" sexual culture.

So, unbelievably, this city, this boy, this world, this world.

Of course, including myself.

Jose Gutierrez, this is my most famous brainless fan in the world, and the culprit of what I refer to as "because of a person who spreads the image of liking good kids all over the world".Speaking of Madrid, although Guti and Raul entered the first team very early, they still have a good relationship with players from the youth training. Row Vandre.

As for the three youths at that time, Raul was expected by everyone, Guti had a weird temper that people would never be able to handle, just like his weird ball that people would never understand, and Lao van der Rey...

This is different from a well-behaved child like Raul, and certainly not a bad boy.He gives people the impression that a teenage body hides a soul in his 20s, which can be called mature.This maturity is not annoying, perhaps to a large extent because of the exquisite smile he used to hang on his face and the good-looking face that both people and gods hate.

I remember chatting in the locker room once, and Hierro asked me what I like to do in my spare time.Although I know that my answer will definitely make them dissatisfied, I still answer that I will read García Márquez's book.And for a group of Spaniards, especially those whose base camp is in Madrid, even if the opponent is a 1982 Nobel Prize winner in literature, perhaps they will only wonder, why not Cervantes?Although I also know that Marquez was greatly influenced by Cervantes.

Of course, the next day, Guti discussed with me a long time of topics with a full face of expectation, from Cervantes to Marquez, I think I showed a little more enthusiasm for him than usual, after all, let a boy who is obsessed with romance read Reading is probably considered a great achievement.But after speaking, I vaguely heard the two little ghosts muttering, "I have almost finished talking to me yesterday, what about after that? Do I have to ask him again today?"

...Anyway, even without reading, chatting with friends is better than him messing around outside.

I feel like I'm becoming more tolerant of this little golden retriever.Although he is still a little curious about the 'law' in his mouth.

In fact, if you turned your head and asked Hierro at that time, the few literary and artistic youths who are well-known throughout Real Madrid would probably be able to find out smoothly.It's not like when the first team communicates with the youth team one day and hears the definition of football——

"It can turn the dead into living people, make them stand up from the grave, cheer for it, and guide the way ahead." The boy's still immature face reflects an unconcealable loneliness, which is so obvious, shrouded His flaxen-colored semi-long hair, which is softly bundled, covers his gray pupils hidden between black and white, light and darkness, and covers his unique face favored by God.

That's a line from García Márquez's debut novel, Leaving Dead Leaves.When mentioning García Márquez, the two words that come to mind most often are "magical reality" and "loneliness".

When hearing from a boy under the age of 15, sentences in books that describe poverty, backwardness, isolation, conservatism, and ignorance, everyone will probably be surprised.

Loneliness in dreams, loneliness in trouble, loneliness in the face of someone else's death.

This may be the ups and downs and misfortunes this boy encountered growing up. At that time, I always thought that he was like a flower watered and grown by loneliness in "One Hundred Years of Solitude", but later I realized that he was the fallen angel in "The Old Man with Giant Wings".

He is a fallen angel, not the Son of God.

Maybe it was my ecstasy that made Hierro think of something.He coughed lightly, trying to call my attention, "So, in fact, you prefer Aarau and Igor?"

Everyone understands what this kind of liking means, "I really think that it is Real Madrid's loss that Aarau cannot play for Real Madrid."

This is Real Madrid's loss.For him, it was a sharp pain.

Redondo thinks of the kid with a good free-kick and what he said, "KLM has never been reliable. They said to me, go and see Spain, especially Madrid. There are a lot of Great youth training, look at the gap between you and them, maybe you can give up your unrealistic dream and become a worker with peace of mind?"

But he still achieved real success in Madrid's youth training. The boy trained very hard. The reason, he joked at first that it was because he didn't want to go back to be a worker, but later Redondo still knew the truth.

"So I went to Spain alone when I was 12 years old. When I arrived at Madrid Airport, my luggage was still in transit in the Netherlands. So on the first day I arrived in Spain, I lost the clothes my sister prepared for me and lost my practice. Video, without my signature book, only my passport, a little money, a sportswear and a pair of sneakers."

"I felt so relieved at that moment. You said that I am already so pitiful, how could I be more pitiful? Even if I fail again, I still have my passport, money, sportswear and sneakers, right?"

"The staff at the airport gave me a 'relief' kit, a small change of clothes and a toothbrush. Then I took it to the airportshuttle."

That was the beginning of what he said. When the boy said "really breaking into the sky", those gray eyes, which are usually covered with a layer of melancholy, were like burning flames, which made people unconvincing.

In the end, he became famous in Spain, and he is about to enter the Bernabeu, where thousands of players dream of entering...

In the end, he went to far away England, away from the literary and artistic Madrid, and arrived in the heavy industrial city of Manchester.

It's all predestined.

The author has something to say:

There is a saying that the UEFA Champions League is not called the St. Blair's Cup... I will not research it carefully, after all, it must be called Big Ears.

Brother Dong, the god in my heart, is a literary youth.Don't think I'm long-winded, just take a little bit--

Everyone must be different, Brother Dong is Wenqing...No accident, tomorrow's guy will be a rough guy and a pervert from the Premier League...

CP is a member of Yingcao, he is younger than the protagonist... It's too early
