[football] exactly the same

"I want to talk to you."

After training, Cristiano stopped Chris for the first time in a few days. The moment he put his hand on Chris's shoulder, to be honest, the whole locker room was worried that Chris would punch him crookedly. suffocating his nose.

But of course, Little Chris didn't, Little Chris just kept his head down and didn't speak.

' Offer to talk to him like a full grown-up. '

Cristiano remembered Mendes' exhortation and encouragement, and said again, "I want to talk to you about that day, I'm sorry, I shouldn't doubt you."

I was so curious about the cause and the result of the incident, that the whole locker room couldn't help pricking up their ears, for at least the next 40 years of listening.

Little Chris curled his lips, seemingly not accepting the apology at all.

This is really a very strange thing-the onlookers looked at each other, wondering if the two Cristianos had swapped souls or something.

Cristiano felt that he was being watched, and looked around alertly, "Let's go back and talk."

Little Chris thought about it, and asked to change the location to Mendez's house—the purpose was very simple. If he said something wrong, Cristiano would be furious, and at least there would be a reliable person who could persuade him to fight.

Counseling is a little bit cowardly, but very realistic.

That's why Mendes was dragged back from a little beet's house, sitting on the sofa in the living room and watching the two Cristianos with serious faces ready to 'solve the problem'.

Mendez's heart was still with the little beet, but he didn't dare to rush the two Cristianos, and his heart was very sad for a while.

Fortunately, the older Cristiano showed off his occasional eight-year-old emotional intelligence in due course.

"I'm sorry for what happened before." When Cristiano said this, Mendes' reaction was similar to that of the Real Madrid dressing room-almost fell off the sofa.

Little Chris didn't speak, still didn't speak.

"But I still insist on my opinion." Cristiano could apologize, but he didn't admit defeat—besides, he was right, okay, "I insist that you are wrong."

Chris Jr. was not too eager to deny this part—which also surprised Mendes.He had thought that little Chris would insist that he did it out of a bigger picture or something.

"You don't have to make any sacrifices for me, I don't need it." When Cristiano spoke again, Mendes was afraid that Chris would beat him up for his almost ignorant words.

Is it towards Chris Jr. or towards Cristiano?Which one is more in line with the current Madrid Basic Law?At one point Mendes even began to ponder this political proposition.

"I don't think it's a sacrifice." Chris Jr. refuted a point that Mendes thought would be the least important point, "I don't think changing positions is a sacrifice for you. I just want to help you. That’s all — and I’m getting more minutes by changing positions, right? It’s good for the team, good for you, good for me, and I’m willing to do it and don’t think it’s a sacrifice or anything.”

Mendez felt that it made sense, but it seemed that he couldn't stand it anywhere.

Cristiano quickly answered his doubts.

"It's no different!" Cristiano was unsurprisingly the first to become irritable - he is not a person who promises to be tempting, he is used to doing it directly, or waiting for others to understand, "Don't you understand? You and Those messed up guys are different! You don’t have to do whatever it takes to play. You just have to be yourself and you’re bound to get it all.”

"But what did you say to Mr. Mourinho? You said you were willing to change positions for me for Real Madrid - if you just thought you were changing for Real Madrid, then there was no problem, as Icar said, You're a team guy, which is great. But you added my name, which is not good at all!"

"You shouldn't pay too much attention to the gains and losses of a certain person. You are like a commander. You don't have to care about every individual in every detail. Do you understand what I'm saying?"

"Whether others will get better because of your changes is not important at all, what matters is yourself and the whole team - this is the leader. Yours, at most, is called... called the flood of sympathy."

Mendes began to believe that Cristiano really wanted to fulfill the obligation of a mentor to Little Chris. After all, Cristiano had never been so serious about reasoning with anyone before.

"I don't understand," said little Chris.

Cristiano froze for a moment, then waved his hands in despair.

"Cristiano, what you're talking about has nothing to do with football. Isn't that all we need if we can score goals and win? Besides, you are the most important thing to the team, and I will only do this for you. "

'Dad, I don't understand, you keep talking about leaders, what exactly is a leader? '

Chris Jr. asked his father, who was overjoyed by his hat-trick, after his first official youth team game.

'leader?A leader is the whole spirit, fighting spirit and determination of a team.A team with a leader may not necessarily win the championship, but a team without a leader, no matter how strong it is, cannot win the championship.do you know why my dearBecause the energy of the leader exceeds the limit of your body, it can stretch to infinity like air, and it can also penetrate into every hole like flowing water. '

Cristiano looked at Chris Jr., seemingly considering how to answer his question.

after a long time.

"I don't know." Cristiano was very frank. "This thing is like a part of my body. I know it is important, but I don't know why."

Mendez coughed and decided to interrupt the metaphysics discussion—everyone was an adult and busy.

"We have a lot of time for philosophy, my dears, but we need to say the most important thing first - Chris, my dear, have you forgiven Cristiano?"

Before the Madrid Basic Law had time to launch the revised version, Mendes took the lead in using the important clause of "little Chris is justice".

Very prescient, we have to admit.

Cristiano looked dissatisfied at Mendes, who was turning his elbow outward, and decided to go to the newspaper to fire him tomorrow.

unless……

Yes, unless Mendes begs him!

But with Chris Jr., Mendes asked a question that didn't have to be.Little Chris will always forgive Cristiano, because he knows that Cristiano is always kind and has good intentions.

"I just want to ask a question." Little Chris did not answer Mendes' question, but made a request himself.

And Mendez, who is understanding and caring for young people, naturally asked him what he wanted to ask with a pleasant face.

"Cristiano, you said you wanted me to be myself... I mean, not for any personal sacrifices but just for the team, yes?"

Mendes, who had just finished flattering and was left alone, took a sip of coffee resentfully.

Cristiano nodded as if seeing the dawn of victory.

"As long as it's for the team and in line with my wishes, will you agree with anything I do?" Little Chris continued to ask.

These are two questions not one... And I don't know why, little Chris seems to be digging a hole... Mendes rubbed his chin and looked meaningfully at Cristiano who was about to die heroically. , thought for a while and still didn't say anything.

Little Chris is a good boy, and he will definitely not make any strange requests.

Mendes told himself that he was different from Cristiano.

"That's great." A narrow light flashed in Chris's eyes, but then he said cheerfully, "Then I want to tell Mr. Mourinho that I don't want to play the midfielder anymore."

Cristiano didn't think it was a problem, after all, Chris did a good job in the forward position.

So he encouraged little Chris, "Of course, you can talk to him, before you kick..."

"I'm going to try to play as a goalkeeper." Chris interrupted Cristiano and announced solemnly, "When I was in Portugal, I played as a goalkeeper twice in the team training, and the goalkeeper coach said that I threw a penalty kick Played very well!"

Little Chris forgave Cristiano, and was still trying to do something for him—Mendez realized this meaning earlier than Cristiano, so he was very happy, very free-minded, and very eager to gossip.

So Mendes didn't dare to look at Cristiano again, and quickly took out his mobile phone and sent two text messages to Mourinho.

'You'll have a goalkeeper Cristiano Ronaldo. '

'What a shock to Europe, to the world's attention. '

A full five hours later, Mourinho replied, '... I don't think Ikar would like to play as a striker, but thanks, Sergio probably would.I'll talk to him tomorrow...'
