273 Alien Secrets

Ronaldo's career can be said to be a history of blood and tears accompanied by injuries.

After emerging in Brazil, he came to Eindhoven and scored 35 goals in 36 games in his first season, including 30 goals in 33 league games, making him famous.

.

But in his second season at PSV, after scoring 12 goals in 13 games, he suffered the first serious knee injury in his career. It was a bad foul he encountered in a game, and his right leg

The injury to his patella kept him out of action for two months.

That season in Barcelona was a rare highlight and complete season for Ronaldo, and then he came to Inter Milan.

The competitive pressure and field conditions of Serie A were a heavy burden for the young Ronaldo, especially the inexplicable injury before the 1998 World Cup final in France, which became a nightmare that Ronaldo has been unable to escape from since then.

On November 21, 1999, when Inter Milan faced Lecce, Ronaldo's right foot unfortunately stepped into a hole in the court. The old injury recurred, and the patella of his right foot was partially broken. He was diagnosed with a comminuted fracture of the soft tissue of the knee.

This time he was out for five months.

This time, he invited the famous expert Dr. Sejan to perform the surgery on him, and it went well. However, after four months of rest, he was eager to come back. Unexpectedly, Ronaldo, who had just come back and played for six minutes as a substitute, did not have any chance.

He suddenly fell to the ground in a physical confrontation, and that was the heartbreaking scene that countless fans still remember many years later.

Ronaldo was holding his scarred right foot and crying!

It was still Dr. Seyoung who performed the surgery, but this time he stayed away from the game for more than a year.

According to what the Inter Milan team doctor later said, the main reason was that the venue at the Olympic Stadium in Rome was very slippery at the time. When Ronaldo tried to take off for the top, his knee exerted uneven force, causing damage to the patellar ligament.

After two consecutive serious injuries and two major surgeries, almost everyone had no hope for Ronaldo's career. Even the Inter Milan team doctor at the time speculated that Ronaldo might bid farewell to professional football. The Italian media even reported that,

News that Ronaldo will use a wheelchair.

But everyone knows the final story.

Before the World Cup in Korea and Japan in 2002, Ronaldo came back again and led the Brazilian team to win the World Cup. He also became the World Cup Golden Boot Award and staged the return of the king!

But after two serious injuries, Ronaldo completely became vitreous and has been struggling with injuries ever since.



Regarding his career, Ronaldo regretted leaving La Liga prematurely.

This is not to say that he regrets moving to Inter Milan, but that he thinks it is a bit too early.

At that time, Serie A was known as the Little World Cup and was the league with the highest professional standards in the world. Ronaldo had just played well for Barcelona for a season. After moving to Inter Milan, the pressure of the game suddenly increased a lot. In addition, Serie A advocates defense.

Style had a great influence on him.

"If I had played in La Liga for two more years to become more mature, I believe everything would have been different." Ronaldo still felt a little regretful about his transfer that year.

He was only twenty years old when he moved from Barcelona to Inter Milan.

"You are younger than me. Although your body is better than mine, you can't be careless, especially in the Premier League, where the physical confrontation is more intense, the game rhythm is faster, the impact is stronger, and the physical requirements on the players are also higher.

Being taller and being too young may not necessarily be a good thing."

Nowadays, apart from the Spanish Super League duo, the closest people to Su Dong are Chelsea and Manchester United in the Premier League.

Only these wealthy teams with sufficient financial resources can afford Su Dong's high transfer fee.

"I will seriously consider it." Su Dong nodded and agreed.

In fact, he hasn't thought about it yet. He even doesn't know whether he wants to leave Valencia.

Many times, players are helpless in the transfer market.

Just like now, Su Dong does have a lot of say, but he can't decide whether other teams will pay for him.

Just like applying for a job, you can't write a letter of recommendation yourself, send it to the desk of the chairman of the other club, and recommend yourself to join, right? Wouldn't that be a joke?

"At that time, I really never thought about leaving Barcelona. I had even reached an agreement with them to renew my contract, and I just needed to sign it. We made an appointment at that time to celebrate the successful renewal of the contract in a restaurant in the afternoon, but it was...

At around nine o'clock in the evening, my agent informed me that Barcelona had broken the contract!"

When talking about this incident, Ronaldo showed a trace of unbearable expression. Obviously, the negotiation that year had a great impact on him, and at least he still feels resentful towards Barcelona.

"So many years have passed, and they are still negotiating in a dark way. Maradona, Romario, me, Figo...we have all experienced this, and Ronaldo will be the best in the future."

Dinho, or anyone else, must be the same, no one can escape."

Su Dong listened silently, believing that what Ronaldo said was true.

Perhaps, the Brazilians really still want him to join Real Madrid, so they told him this.

Barcelona's problems have been around for a long time. Mendes told him that since the 1980s, it has been difficult for Barcelona to retain a superstar like Ronaldo. This was true before, and it will be true now and in the future.

Maradona was only 24 when he left, Romario was only 28 when he left, Figo was only 27 when he left, and Ronaldo was even younger, he left when he was only 20.

Perhaps, when these superstars left Barcelona, ​​they did have their own problems, but there has never been a giant like Barcelona. Isn't this worth pondering?

Mendes also believes that Su Dong is not suitable to leave La Liga for the time being because he is not mature enough.

Staying in La Liga, Su Dong will not have many choices.

Among them, when Mendes told him about Barcelona, ​​he mentioned something that left a deep impression on Su Dong.

"If you really go to Barcelona, ​​you have to be mentally prepared. You just get paid to play football. Maybe in two years, maybe in three years, you will definitely leave!"

What Mendes wants to say is probably the same thing as what Ronaldo is saying now.

Su Dong also fell into deep thought again.

…………

…………

A week later, La Liga resumed its war.

In the 33rd round, Valencia faced Real Sociedad at home.

Since there is a Champions League home match against Monaco in the semi-finals in the middle of the week, Valencia does not intend to go all out in this game.

In the first half, Real Sociedad launched a fierce attack, with Vicente and Sudong scoring one goal each.

During the halftime break, Benitez even replaced Sudong in advance, allowing Mista to come on to prepare for the Champions League in midweek.

But the situation took a turn for the worse in the second half, with Xabi Alonso scoring a goal and then Calpin equalizing the score for Real Sociedad with a penalty kick.

Two to two, the two sides finally shook hands and made peace.



Valencia tied with Real Sociedad, Real Madrid defeated Atletico Madrid, and Barcelona also won, but it doesn't matter anymore.

Everyone knows that this season's La Liga championship is already in Valencia's possession.

Under such circumstances, it is natural for Benitez to save his energy for the Champions League in midweek.

If it affects the crucial Champions League semi-finals for this kind of game that has nothing to do with the overall situation, it will be more gain than loss.

Mestanha's bat fans are well aware of this and have little reaction to the team's draw.

…………

…………

After playing Real Sociedad, the Valencia coaching staff held a tactical meeting, focusing on the midweek game against Monaco.

A focus of discussion was Aimar's absence.

Sudong, Vicente and Aimar are Valencia's offensive triangle, but this season, especially in the second half, Aimar has been injured frequently, making Valencia rely more on Sudong and Vicente.

support.

Vicente is on the wing and Sudong occupies the center, so many times, Valencia will adopt different tactics according to the opponent, such as adopting a 4-4-2 double forward tactic, or continuing to adopt a 4-2-3 formation.

type, but let Canobbio serve as the attacking midfielder, or even let Su Dong retreat and serve as the attacking midfielder.

The reason is also very simple. In the 4-2-3 formation, the position of the front midfielder is very important.

Facing Monaco, the game will be very difficult. Benitez needs Su Dong to be at the front to create a threat, because he knows very well that if Su Dong is withdrawn and Mista is at the front, he will not be able to withstand Monaco.

Two central defenders.

Monaco's double midfielder tactic forced Valencia to play more wide. Mista's threat from the wing was far weaker than Su Dong's, but if Su Dong was allowed to step up and there was no one in the attacking midfielder position, it wouldn't be possible.

No one will put pressure on Monaco's double midfielders.

Benitez held a meeting to discuss just because he wanted to hear the players' opinions.

The result was clear and the players had no objections.

The ball was kicked back to Benitez's feet.

Monaco adopts a 4-4-2 formation with two midfielders in the midfield. This large space was originally something Valencia should focus on, but Aimar's absence has a great impact on Valencia. Canobbio has been unable to get Bayern.

Nitus's trust.



When the meeting failed to reach a conclusion, Benitez called the players to the office for discussion.

From captain Alberda to vice-captain Baraja, the ones he values ​​most are Su Dong and Vicente.

After all, in addition to cooperating with Albelda and Baraja, the most important thing for this player is to attack with Sudong and Vicente. If he does not call, it will be useless like Canobbio.

This is the semi-finals of the Champions League, and the players can't give good opinions.

Su Dong, on the other hand, has always had a slightly more adventurous idea.

"Why not let David Silva give it a try?" Su Dong suggested.

He liked to touch David Silva's head, and David Silva would only let Su Dong touch his head.

Su Dong still knows the strength of this young midfielder. He is really good. He is just a little younger and his physical confrontation is weak, but his organization and passing ability are still very strong.

Benitez was a little surprised. It was not that he had never thought about David Silva, but he felt that he was too young, only eighteen years old.

But now, after hearing what Su Dong said, he was really tempted.
