Chapter 80

On June 6th, the America's Cup kicked off. On June 15th, the teenagers ushered in the opening game of the World Youth Championship in Asia. The hosts faced Morocco.

The Shah Alam Stadium, which can accommodate 25000 spectators, ended up with only [-] spectators, which is enough to show that the host is not interested in football.

In the end, the host lost to Morocco 1:3 at home.

According to the competition system, the top two teams in the 6 groups and the 4 No.3 teams with the best results will directly advance to the knockout round.Of course, it is necessary for Argentina to appear at the top of the group, otherwise it will be "upset".

On June 6, Argentina finally ushered in the first match of the World Youth Championship, against Hungary.The Pampas Eagles, who had already been ready to go, beat their opponents 18-6, easily completed a hat-trick in the half, and Rafael, who also sent an assist to Curly, was replaced by Pei Shuai at the beginning of the second half , watching the game on the bench full of grievances.

There is also a reason for Pekerman's substitutions, because the arrangement of the event is a bit unreasonable. On June 6, after only one day of rest, they will face their second group opponent, Canada.

6月20日,阿根廷5:1拿下加拿大,两场进了7个球的拉斐尔直接登顶射手榜。

But this is not the most eye-catching game in the second round. The tragedy happened on June 6. Brazil swept South Korea 22:10, which created a single-game goal record in the World Youth Championship.Including 3 penalty kicks, Edaton scored 2 goals in a single game.

Because of well-known reasons, after watching the game in the conference room of the hotel, the young Argentine eagles all had the same expression. No matter how you look at it, they are not convinced that their firepower is not as good as that of the Brazilian next door!

"The Koreans made it too easy for them."

"We'll have the same ease against Australia."

"Tomorrow's game we will definitely score more than the Brazilians!"

"We are the best team and we have Rafa!"

The smooth sailing of the previous two games, the pride is breeding, which makes Pekerman frown.

The match between them and Australia is a battle between the first in the group and the second in the group. The first in the group has more advantages, and the second in the group will qualify. They will face England in the quarter-finals. If England is defeated, if nothing else happens , their opponent in the quarterfinals is Brazil.

It was a rougher road, but Pekerman made a decision.

"Rafa, you stay." Pekerman called to stop Rafael.

At this moment, everyone looked at Raphael, with a little bit of sympathy in their eyes-maybe outsiders can't feel it, Pekerman's face has a serious aura, and these young generals always have a kind of respect for their mentors. awe.

Raphael, who was watched by everyone, had a calm expression on his face, as calm as a top student who never fears the teacher because he gets full marks every time in the exam.

La Xueba was fearless, Aimar let go of his hand, mouthed "I'll wait for you outside" to him, and left the meeting room with other teammates.

"You and Pubrido seem to have a really good relationship. I heard that he secretly ordered a cake for you?" Pekerman looked at Raphael mockingly.

"That's right." Raphael didn't deny it.

"I'm glad you have a friend in the team, and I'm also glad that you have a good relationship with Roman and Esteban," Pekerman patted Rafael on the shoulder lightly, and praised: " I am also very happy with your attitude, Rafa, you are a very mature player."

Raphael "jumped in" on the way and came in. He was another "student master" with a strong sense of presence and an arrogant personality.Initially, Pekerman was also a little worried about whether he could integrate into the team smoothly.

But after two games, Pekerman found that Raphael already has some popularity in the team, such as Riquelme, and even his striker partner Romeo, and even Cambiasso sent him two assists .

It was precisely because of Rafael's initial integration that the players said the above words after watching the Brazil game, and it also made the players feel proud.

Pekerman's "praise" made Raphael's expression a little subtle. He kept silent and looked at Pekerman, and Pekerman turned to the topic, "There are two reasons why I keep you. One is your change." Yes, I think your agent should have bothered you a lot these days, and the other one is about tomorrow's game."

Raphael frowned slightly, "Did the media harass you? I'm sorry."

"No, it's not the media, but I want you to think about your future."

Pekerman then explained his intentions to Rafael.

He will bring up this matter because many clubs have made offers for Raphael, and the chairman of Inter Milan, Moratti, even made a bold statement that he will bring Ronaldo and Raphael to the Meazza Stadium at the same time.

As soon as this news came out, the entire transfer market was ignited.With Moratti's image of being taken advantage of in the transfer market since he bought Inter Milan, both Barcelona and Deportivo will definitely open their mouths. There is no doubt that as long as Inter Milan gets one of them, this summer's bid king will be produced.

If both are eaten...the media will go crazy!

To give a simple example, in 09, the chairman of the Real Madrid club signed Kaka and Ronaldo at the same time, shocking the world.

Ronaldo won the second Golden Globe Award last season and was elected as the World Footballer. Rafael, who has just passed his 17th birthday, has surpassed him to win the League Golden Boot and the European Golden Boot.

As long as Rafael continues to maintain a stable output in the second half of the year, at this year's Golden Globe Awards, his only competitor is Ronaldo!

Inter Milan wants to pack the brightest and youngest double star in South America, which almost means that Real Madrid will sign Kaka and Ronaldo, who are 4 years younger on average, at the same time.

Moratti said even more ambitiously: "This will allow us to win the present, and it will also allow us to win the future."

Ronaldo is fighting for the Copa America, he is also a Brazilian, Pekerman is too lazy to care whether the Brazilian wants to go to Inter Milan, what he cares about is Rafael's future!

In fact, Rafael has been too calm and calm recently. Pekerman asked Aimar, and he said that Rafael had never discussed the transfer issue with him at all, and he didn't even mention a word.

This shocked Pekerman. At Rafael's age, it is understandable that he should not discuss such a major matter as a transfer with his best friend, but he didn't mention a single word, which proves how calm his heart is. .

"Transfer is a big thing. There are many teams chasing you. I hope you can consider it more from a competitive level." This is all Pekerman can say.

Because as he said, the transfer is a big deal, and it requires Rafael to make his own decision.

Rafael will inevitably become the core of Argentina's future, but there are two cores, one is the offensive core and the other is the organizational core.As awesome as Maradona, he did it all by himself.

So, what about Raphael?

This is what he wanted Raphael to think about.

"I will think about it after the game." Raphael looked up at Pace, "I will be a player of Deportivo until the end of the Copa del Rey, and I will not consider the transfer unless Deporti tells me , They have received a satisfactory insured price, let me discuss personal issues with other teams, and I will consider it."

That's a promise he made to the fans, and he'll keep it.

Pekerman looked at him for a few seconds, with a smile on his face, and said expectantly: "I think you will make the best choice. Now let's talk about another thing."

"I think your teammates lack your calmness. They are a little proud. We are the first in the South American qualifiers, we are very good, and we should be proud. But excessive pride becomes arrogance—" Pekerman stared at La Phil, "You get what I mean, don't you?"

"Do you want to give up the next game strategically, and don't plan to send me on the field?" Raphael asked back.

"That's right." Pekerman admitted frankly, "You are very comfortable with the senior team. This kind of game is not difficult for you. In fact, the field you should fight for now should be the America's Cup, not in Malaysia. .”

"If we lose this game, we can still show up. If there is no accident, our opponent will be England, who is the first in Group F. After eliminating them, we will face Brazil. I think this is more meaningful."

Pei Shuai looked at Raphael, "What do you think?"

Raphael said without hesitation, "You are the coach, I am your player, and I accept all your arrangements."

"Good boy." Pekerman smiled and reached out to touch Raphael's blond hair, and suggested: "Try to deal with the media in the future. I know you are tired of them, but you are 17 years old now, they can treat you Making yourself a hero in the eyes of the world can also make you a devil."

Pei Shuai earnestly and kindly said, "For example, for that incident, he is now being ridiculed by people in China. If you responded earlier, he would not have attracted so much attention."

Seeing that Raphael frowned subconsciously, Pei Shuai smiled and gave a suggestion, "Your agent is from the media, he must have good friends, let him choose reliable ones, give them news, let them act as your mouthpiece , all you have to do is to give them some benefits, and this benefit is just to let them know you."

"The media will believe lies, or even fabricate lies, because they don't know anything about you. You don't need everyone to know you, you just need to give some of them a chance to get close to you, and that's enough."

"Rafa!" When Rafael walked out of the meeting room, Aimar who was waiting not far away immediately waved to him.

He found that Raphael was a little absent-minded, and asked worriedly, "What did Jose tell you?"

"I won't be in the end."

"What?" Aimar's jaw was about to dislocate in shock!

Raphael glanced at the little man, and felt that Peashua might also rotate him and Riquelme, "You'd better be mentally prepared, you may also be rested."

"But my physical fitness is very good!" Aimar immediately retorted, seeing Rafael raised his eyebrows, he said perfunctorily: "I know your physical fitness is not bad, why do you need to rotate..."

He was full of mourning, and couldn't understand why they were rotated. Isn't he going to compete with the Brazilians at this time?

The little man's lament made Rafael feel a little better. After returning to the room, he asked Aimar to take a shower first, and called his manager Anderson himself.

When Aimar came out after drying his hair, he heard Raphael saying to the person on the other end of the phone: "...Yes, I don't like the British climate, I'm sorry."

"Thank you for your appreciation."

Aimar froze for a moment, then sat quietly on his bed.

When Rafael hung up the phone, he said to him with relief on his face: "Which team is it? Manchester United? It's great that you don't go to the UK. The UK is a place where it is difficult for us to adapt."

"It's Arsenal's coach, Wenger. He insisted on calling me and trying to convince me. Obviously his eloquence is really good." He was praised by Wenger for more than ten minutes and got a bunch of assurances, but he finally refused Raphael, the French coach, put down his phone and was going to get his clothes to take a shower.

Aimar endured it for a few seconds, but there was still a kitten scratching and scratching in his heart, so he couldn't help asking in a low voice, "Then where are you going?"

"If you get rid of England, it's better to be Serie A." Raphael turned around and glanced at him, raised his eyebrows and said, "It would be great for you to go to Arsenal."

This little guy is obviously Wenger's favorite type of player, and it is also an excellent choice to be polished by Wenger.

Of course, there is a premise - "The premise is that your confrontation can become stronger."

Aimar: "..."

I!Why!Go Arsenal!Going to a country that none of my friends would consider!
