ball magic

After playing Leeds United 6-1, Inter Milan once again became the favorite to win the Champions League, and Rafael was also blown up by the media.

For Raphael, these are just his routines, his life is no different.

But with Ronaldo's transfer, John Mortensen's remarks, and the announcement of the 50-man list for the Golden Globe Awards, it is also announcing the resurgence of the "contest of double kings".

After returning to Milan, the media waiting at the airport asked Raphael what he thought of the Golden Globes.

With past experience, Raphael knew that he would have to answer this question sooner or later.

If they answer now, they will ask next time, and he can directly ask these media to read his previous replies.

So in the shock of the Italian media, Raphael replied: "My answer is no different from before. I always hope to give the best performance to the fans, but the judge is not me. Can I win the award?" It's not me who has the final say, this may be the meaning of the award

Reward us when we do well and encourage us when we are proud.

I won't answer this question after that, thank you all. "

He replied in Italian, which old Robson could not understand, but his translator Eric translated everything for him competently, which made old Robson very relieved.

Wrapping up the midweek game, Raphael got a day off as the league hadn't yet been added to their Devil's schedule.

He didn't go anywhere that day, but simply played with Louis for a day, and even hugged the stupid duck helplessly under Louis' coquettish offensive, allowing Juan to take pictures for them.

Fortunately, Luis didn't know about the showy operation of uploading photos on the Internet, and Raphael didn't need to share this stupid group photo in front of the world.

But on the phone with Aimar after dinner, Luis let slip that Raphael had to email him the stupid photo.

Aimar laughed when he saw the group photo, then exclaimed: "I think I know why Luis wants you to hold him."

Raphael said helplessly, "Why?"

"Because you look so gentle."

"..."

Aimar knew he didn't believe it, because Rafael in the photo had a reluctance on his face.

But the light beige knitted sweater he was wearing looked so warm, and the Cole Duck in his arms was so well-behaved, even though he hugged him with a reluctant face, it still seemed to have a special It feels more gentle.

So he ignored Raphael's excuse of "why would I be gentle with a stupid duck", marked the photo with the date, saved it in his hard drive, and decided to wash them all out after retirement and put them in their In the family album.

He thinks that even if he sees this photo decades later, he will still have the same feeling.

He even wants to buy someone another dozen clothes in warm colors, even if he can only see it in the video, he will feel the warmth.

On September 9, Inter Milan played away against Lecce.

Because of an accident and scored a goal for Lecce on the home match day, Rafael, Figo and Redondo were all placed on the bench by Robson.

All the reasons are to make way for the Champions League.

In the game 3 days later, their opponent was Barcelona.

Being rotated before playing Barcelona, ​​it seems that there is nothing to complain about.

So Raphael didn't look for the old man BB either.

After the game started, the camera frequently scanned the sidelines, and saw Figo very consciously keeping a distance from the two Argentines.

And the two Argentines, each with a yerba mate cup, seemed to be chatting happily.

After the game, Figo, who was not running fast enough, was caught by the media.

The Portuguese said helplessly: "They were discussing Argentina's economic issues, and they were still talking about whether the Argentine government should borrow money from the International Monetary Fund. I am not interested in such issues."

This also made the media look at each other, but think about Redondo's education, coupled with the glorious resume of not participating in the World Cup in order to enter the university, and then think about the position of the Iglesias family on the Forbes list...

It seems normal for them to discuss this.

Luis had a great week because his uncle was home every day, he was able to video with his papa every day, and daddy took him to the ball!

Louis hasn't been to the game for a long time, he likes the atmosphere of the stadium, he also likes other fans to greet him, he prefers to wave to everyone!

In short, this kid who is obsessed with being a heartthrob is very happy.

Of course Javier did not forget to report to his brother.

Rafael never refuses his family to watch his game, this will always be his motivation to perform well, just remind Javier to bring more clothes, and don't forget Luiz's earplugs. ⒊[-]

The noise on the court is still too much for him.

As a result, when he personally came to the parking lot to pick up people, not only did he see Louis, Louis's clothes, earplugs, and schoolbag, but he also saw that stupid duck!

He's all bad!

He stares at Javier like he's questioning the idiot

Why did you ask him to bring the duck?

Javier looked back pitifully.

He didn't want to, but without this stupid duck, Louis would never go to the hospital for an examination!

In order to trick Louis into obediently going to the hospital for examination, of course he had to agree to all his reasonable and unreasonable demands.

Raphael knew that it was useless to ask him to settle accounts, and when he looked at Louis, he found that Louis was hugging his beloved duckling, watching his uncle warily, as if defending it with all his courage.

And that stupid duck yelled at him.

Raphael believes that as long as Louis puts this stupid duck down, it will definitely waddle towards him, which is quite cute...

Forget it.

He snorted, it was over, and reached out to Louis again.

Louis immediately jumped in front of him happily and held his hand, but the little guy's happiness lasted only a second before he heard the bad news.

"Can't take this stupid duck to the field."

"why not!"

"Because there are too many people, it's too loud, you have earplugs, it doesn't, it scares it. We can put it in the locker room, and then you finish the game and we take him home."

Louis looked at his beloved duckling in confusion, but reluctantly agreed to his uncle's proposal to take it to the locker room.

In order to prevent him from going back on his word, Rafael immediately confiscated that stupid duck that was still wearing diapers!

One can imagine, when he held such a stupid duck and led Louis into the locker room, what greeted him!

It lasted for a long time, and the laughter that almost broke through the roof was nothing, and what was even more annoying was that the idiot named Gomez even filmed this scene!

Raphael glared at him impolitely, what's there to shoot?

But Louis was born to love the camera.

After posing a few times cooperatively, he even let go of Rafael's hand, ran up to Gomez, and asked him to take a few more pictures, so that his beloved duckling would be better Raphael did a great job.

This made the laughter in the locker room even louder!

Look, even Raphael is just a hopelessly stupid uncle in front of the children!

Rafael simply stuffed the stupid duck to Luis, letting him hug the duck and be photographed by Gomez.

But this is not what Louis wants, what he wants is to pat with his uncle.

Rafael accompanied him to take a few photos while everyone was booing, and knew that such dark history would be spread on the Internet after the game...

Because I witnessed the little guy getting two slaps for disobedience, and Vieri was not there, now only Simeone is left who dares to tease the child.

Simeone asked him: "Luis, what else has Rafa filmed?"

Louis held up the duckling and said, "Ducky! Mmm... Bart! Papa! And Worm!"

Papa

Everyone only dared to laugh in their hearts, and no one dared to openly tease the ball bully, or even look at him.

But doubts also arise, what is Chongchong?

Everyone didn't expect Raphael to answer, so they looked at Juan.

Juan whispered, "Duck food."

Everyone was stunned.

Just imagine that Raphael is serious about shooting bugs...

Hahahaha!

Rafael let them laugh and went to Robson himself to explain that there were more ducks in their locker room during the game.

It's not that it can't be placed in other places, but whether this stadium is called San Siro or Meazza, it actually belongs to the Milan City Government.

So there are noisy people here, if you lose Louis' duckling, it will be over.

"This duck has seen him since it was born, and will listen to him especially. I can't pay him another one."

The old Robson said with a smile: "No problem, no problem, we have an extra little mascot today."

The old gentleman obviously still had a childlike innocence, and even ran to the duck to take a closer look, and said: I have seen such a duck in England, and I will raise one when I retire. "

Rafael thought, but a workaholic like you wouldn't think about retiring.

Louis obviously thought it was the old man's praise for his beloved duck, and showed off his duck to the old man in a childish voice, even though his uncle started to change clothes and was about to warm up without noticing.

During the warm-up period of the players, the old Robson personally found a large box for the jerseys, and put Louis' beloved duckling in it, and found a small bottle, cut it open, and fed it with water.

His series of behaviors earned Louis several kisses, and also a lot of flattery that "Louis loves Bobby the most".

The old man was so amused that he finally sent him to Javier himself.

When the old Robson was about to leave, Louis Jr. waved at him to cheer him up: "Bobby! Win the game! Win a lot!"

Old Robson was in a better mood.

When he returned to the locker room, the players had just returned from warming up, and they were all watching the duck, and some even touched it.

Seeing that they still had their sense of proportion, Rafael didn't care, and the old Robson let them watch for 2 minutes before clapping his hands.

Now everyone returned to their positions, listening to the old Robson say: "This is our last game in September, and it is also the most important game. After this game, the players who performed well have 9 days off. If the performance is not good, not only will there be no holiday, but I will also consider the starting issue..."

There was cheering in the locker room, which directly interrupted what he was about to say.

Raphael also squinted at him. If you want to take a vacation, you can take a vacation. Why make excuses?

But even without the carrot of "holiday" and the stick of "starting problems", he still wants to win.

Because he just wanted to win over his old friend, Rivaldo.

The most important reason why the old Robson attaches so much importance to this game is because of the schedule in October.

As I said before, this year's international match day is basically a competition for the World Cup qualifiers, which is the top priority of each national team.

On the international match day in October, basically all the main players of Inter Milan will be taken out, and soon after the end of the national team match day, they will go to Barcelona.

He got an injured Vieri on the national love team match day last time, who knows who will be injured this time?

How can you be sure of winning when you play Barcelona in this state?

That being the case, of course they must seize this home court and defend their victory!

Even if the opponent is Barcelona, ​​the old Robson did not emphasize too much, he still firmly believes that as long as his children can do their best, it will still be Inter Milan that wins the game!

When Rafael got up and was about to walk out of the locker room, the old man smiled and said, "Rafa, pet our mascot, this is a lucky duck."

Raphael smiled, knowing that the old man had a pun, and it was indeed a good intention.

He touched the cute duck amidst everyone's booing, but made up his mind not to let Louis bring it to the stadium again

After all, there are too many people who are pursuing feudal dreams on the court. If they really beat Barcelona, ​​maybe someone will strongly suggest that they continue to bring it on the next home match day.

Everyone wants to be lucky in the game. As a duck with a "luckyduck" halo, after Xiao Qiuba walked out of the locker room, everyone almost patted the duck's hair bald!

Inter Milan lined up relatively early and waited for 2 minutes for the Barcelona players to come out.

Guardiola did not enter the squad due to injury, and the captain's armband was worn on the shoulder of Frank de Boer, another acquaintance of Raphael.

Raphael nodded to him, and his eyes soon fell on Rivaldo.

He and Rivaldo didn't need to be greasy, they looked at each other and then looked away.

In the past three seasons, it can be said that Inter Milan and Real Madrid have seen each other every year, but they are also very close to Barcelona.

After all four teams were empty last season, Van Gaal chose to resign, which allowed Rivaldo to finally be freed from the left and play in the middle.

Rivaldo, who was "free", also handed in an excellent report card. Among the 12 goals scored by Barcelona this season, he directly participated in half of them.

How to restrict Rivaldo and Simão from delivering shells to Kluivert before the game became the focus of the tactical training session.

Rivaldo played very well personally, but when Barcelona went to Istanbul as a guest in the last round, they simply lost the game 3-0 in the Turks' territory, and currently only have 3 points in the two rounds.

So this game is also extremely important for Barcelona. They must get at least 1 point, otherwise they will be extremely passive in the subsequent schedule.

When the players entered the field, Fabio Caresa, the host of Italian Sky TV, had already begun to introduce the squads of both sides.

"At home, Robson Sr. played a 433-[-]-[-].

The starting trident is still Rafael, Saviola and Figo.

The midfield is Juan, Simeone and Redondo.

In the defense, because Jankulovski has not recovered from his injury, Ashley Cole continued to get opportunities, but Cannavaro returned in time to continue to partner with Stam, and Panucci was the right back.

Replace Zanetti with Panucci, I think it is also because Panucci knows Barcelona better.

The goalkeeper is Toldo.

On the Barcelona side, coach Ferrer adopted a 4321 formation.

The goalkeeper is this season's new addition, Richard Dutruel.

From left to right in the defense are Barjuan, today's field captain Frank De Boer, Abelardo, and Reziger.

The midfield is de la Pena, Cocu and Gerard Lopez, who has transferred from Valencia to Barcelona this season.

The striker is Kluivert, who has scored a lot of goals recently, and behind him are the Portuguese internationals Simao and Rivaldo who deliver shells for him..."

During the pre-match ceremony, when the captains of the two sides exchanged team flags and guessed sides, the camera also showed Louis who was bouncing on his father's lap.

Fabio Caresa is also an up-to-date presenter who knows what's going on online.

Of course he knew why the director gave Luis the camera, and said with a smile at the moment: "Inter Milan's photographer Gomez said that Luis brought a mascot that can bring real good luck. Today Inter Milan will definitely win a big victory. This makes us sincerely look forward to it, but who knows what it is? I'm dying of curiosity."

While he was chattering, Rafael in the camera stroked his fallen blond hair, adjusted the sweatband on his forehead, and then looked at the goalkeeper Dutruel who was half a field away from him.

He didn't know if Luis' duckling would bring good luck, but he knew that he had good luck with the ball, and he just wanted to score a goal today!
