When Cristiano Ronaldo arrived at the gym at the Carrington training base, the first thing he saw was the newspaper on the seat at the door. The front page headlines caught his attention.
The Portuguese sat down in a chair and flipped through the newspaper, which is fitness coach Mike Clegg's favorite thing to do.
The newspapers reported in great detail about last night's battle at the Mestanha Stadium, especially the formations of the two teams and the players' on-the-spot performance. They believed that Su Dong was the best player in the game.
one.
In terms of player performance ratings, tied with Su Dong is Valencia captain Albelda.
He played a decisive role in the defense throughout the game, especially in the second half.
Anyone who has played football knows how difficult it is to play a game with one less player than your opponent, let alone win two goals!
Su Dong's two goals and the tenacious defense of the midfield and backfield players are equally important!
Cristiano Ronaldo was reading the newspaper with a smile. He noticed the conflict between Su Dong and Desailly and was a little surprised. Unexpectedly, his best friend who was a good old man in the past also got angry, and it was with Desailly.
That old French guy was no stranger to Ronnie, and he played football quite dirty.
However, Su Dong's last two goals gave him a harsh lesson.
The newspaper concluded that although he was only 19 years old, Su Dong had already held up the sky of Valencia. He was leading this bat team to create surprising results, especially in La Liga and the Champions League this season.
In the last round, the 29th round of La Liga before the Champions League match against Chelsea, Valencia beat Real Mallorca 5-1 at home. Although Su Dong did not score, he had two assists to help the team at home.
Victory over the opponent.
Real Madrid suffered a disastrous 2-4 away defeat to Athletic Bilbao.
Between one win and one loss, the points gap between the two teams has widened to thirteen points.
There are only nine rounds left in the league, and this 13-point advantage can basically ensure that Valencia will win the league championship.
Real Madrid's three-game winless streak at the end of the season was indeed very surprising. It may have something to do with Queiroz's dismissal. After all, the locker room was in panic and no one could focus on the game.
Ronaldinho knows this best, because this is the case with Manchester United this season.
Affected by the dispute over the stallion in Gibraltar, the Manchester United dressing room was also uneasy, which made it difficult for the players to focus on the game. Many issues in the team were gradually exposed, such as whether Ferguson would really leave the team after the season?
Manchester United is currently ranked third in the Premier League, behind Arsenal and Chelsea, especially the Gunners. It has maintained an unbeaten record in 29 league rounds so far. This is really terrifying!
It is said that the current top players are working together to end the season with an undefeated record.
But in the next round, they will face the challenge of Manchester United!
The Red Devils are gearing up now. Ferguson cannot accept such a feat from his arch-enemy Wenger, so he is racking his brains to try to break Arsenal's undefeated streak.
From Valencia's Champions League match against Chelsea to Manchester United's own problems, Ronaldinho's thoughts quickly returned to Su Dong, because he had gradually begun to feel that the gap between him and Su Dong had widened.
Although one of them is in the giant Manchester United and the other is in Valencia, over the past year, Su Dong's development momentum is still the best and strongest. Many people have even said that he is the most promising player in world football after Ronaldo.
and a supernova of talent.
Including Manchester United, many European giants want to get him.
Ronaldinho is looking forward to him coming to Manchester United, because then the two can live together again.
Also, the Portuguese don't like Ruud van Nistelrooy at all.
Thinking of this, he suddenly wanted to call Su Dong.
…
As soon as the call was connected, Su Dong on the other side said hello breathlessly.
If it were someone else, Xiao Luo would definitely wonder if the other person was having "breakfast" at this moment?
But Su Dong would not.
"You came back so early?" Xiao Luo asked with a smile.
"Well, I just arrived and before I took a break, your call came." Su Dong on the other side of the phone was in a good mood.
"I just saw your news in the newspaper. You behaved well. I just wanted to hang out with you, so I called you."
Su Dong laughed and didn't take it to heart.
With his friendship with Ronnie, do they need to talk about it?
When Ronnie comes over, as long as it is what the Portuguese want to eat and what the Soviet Union can afford, there will be absolutely no second words.
"You are so popular right now. I personally coached Chelsea's defense. Manchester United lost 0-1 at Stamford Bridge and failed to score. I didn't expect you to score two goals in one go."
"Some luck." Su Dong said modestly.
"Infuriated by Desailly?"
"Well, that old guy played football too dirty and talked a lot of rubbish. He was like a fly flying around in front of me. I really wanted to slap him to death!" Su Dong laughed.
"Haha, you have the same idea as me." Ronnie also laughed, "Is your nose okay?"
"It's okay, it just hurt a lot at the time."
"It's okay."
…
In fact, the two old friends don't have many phone calls. Every time they call, they just chat. They talk about whatever they want. They often can't stop talking.
There seemed to be endless topics and interesting things to talk about between them.
For example, there was news recently in Portugal that the Portuguese police began to investigate the matter of black whistles and black gold in the Portuguese domestic league. It is said that even the chairman of the Portuguese Professional Football League Valentin Loureiro was arrested, as well as the chairman of the referee committee
Pinto de Sousa, was also arrested.
"Now people in the Portuguese Super League are also panicking. Many people want to leave. There is news that Porto is expected to leave this summer."
"Because of Chairman Costa?" Su Dong asked.
"Well, this man is too powerful in Portuguese football. If the police find him, it will be very embarrassing."
This kind of thing usually involves pulling out the carrot and bringing out the mud. Even the chairman of the Professional Football League has stepped down. Will others be far behind?
When Su Dong was still at Sporting Lisbon, he often heard about Porto chairman Costa's arrogant history. Now it seems that he is starting to pay the price.
Deco, Carvalho, Ferreira, and even head coach Mourinho probably want to leave.
But before leaving, they all wanted to make a difference in the Champions League, achieve better results, and add more chips to their transfer.
…
When Portuguese football was mentioned, Su Dong asked with concern about Ronnie buying a house for his family.
This is Ronnie's wish.
He once said that he wanted to buy a house for his parents in Madeira so that his family could have their own room. This is expected to be realized after his move to Manchester United.
"I just moved here, in San Gonzalo, on the other side of the town. It's a two-story villa. It's low-key and elegant. The walls are white. There's a teak balcony on the second floor. Standing on the balcony
, you can overlook the endless Atlantic Ocean, it’s so beautiful!”
Su Dong listened silently on the phone, and he could feel the satisfaction in Ronnie's words.
This has always been Ronnie's wish, and at the same time, he is slowly realizing his dream bit by bit.
That is, he wants to help his family realize their dreams!
"A few days ago, it was my mother's birthday."
"Really?" Su Dong didn't know, "Why didn't you tell me?"
"I don't have time to go back myself," Ronnie laughed, "but I have a friend who helped me find a Mercedes-Benz SLK convertible for sale at a special price in Alentejo. The price is not cheap, but it's quite a bargain, so
I bought it, shipped it back to Madeira, and gave it to her as a birthday present. She was so happy!"
When he said this, Ronnie himself kept laughing, and he was obviously very happy in his heart.
Letting his family live a better and happier life has always been his wish and the motivation for him to work hard to play football.
Even now, his biggest wish is still to help his family realize their dreams.
As for whether it will change in the future, he doesn't know.
"I bought a house and a car, so I owe a lot of money, right?" Su Dong asked with concern.
Ronnie hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "But the family is very happy."
"As long as you are happy, there is nothing more important than that."
"Yes." Ronnie nodded, "My mother said that I haven't seen you for a long time and would like to invite you to our new house as a guest."
"There will definitely be a chance." Su Dong did not dare to promise.
He doesn't know what will happen to him this summer. Many things still depend on the club's actions.
So far, many wealthy teams have contacted Mendes, but none have actually taken action.
Under such circumstances, it was impossible for Su Dong to make any statement in advance.
As for Real Madrid, which has been widely rumored to be interested in Sudong, it has not made any move so far. Obviously, the contact with Valencia has not gone smoothly.
There is an anti-Real Madrid clause in Su Dong's contract, and he himself is not particularly interested in joining Real Madrid.
He doesn't want to be a substitute!
…
The two chatted for more than half an hour without realizing it, and they stopped talking on the phone until Mike Clegg arrived.
But a few minutes later, Ronnie suddenly received a text message.
Su Dong transferred 100,000 euros to his bank card.
No IOU, no explanation in advance, or even anything said, the money was transferred directly.
Because Su Dong knows that he needs money!
Whenever he needed help, Su Dong always stepped in to help.
For example, when his father was ill and needed money, Su Dong gave him all the money he had.
Now, Su Dong still loaned him 100,000 euros without saying a word. What else is there to say?
It's worth it to meet such a good friend in your life!
Thinking of this, Ronnie's eyes were a little red.
"What's the matter?" Mike Clegg asked concerned.
"It's nothing, I accidentally blew sand." Ronnie explained.
He is never willing to show his weak side to others. This is true at Sporting Lisbon and it is also true at Manchester United.
Apart from his family, the only person in the world who deserves his trust and can show his true face is Su Dong.
