On the evening of September 15th, Amsterdam, Netherlands.
In the first round of the Champions League group stage, Barcelona challenged Ajax away.
Both sides have the genes of offensive football, and there are many similarities in their technical and tactical concepts, but this did not make the game beautiful. On the contrary, after the two opening attempts, the game seemed a bit dull.
But when the game entered the 20th minute, Deco stole the ball in the midfield, drove the ball forward, and passed it to Ronaldinho on the left rib. After the Brazilian superstar got the ball, he feinted a shot.
He passed the Ajax defender and cleverly sent a through ball with his right foot.
The ball passed precisely through the gap between the two centre-backs.
Su Dong stepped in with understanding and shot low with his right foot without stopping the ball, hitting the lower right corner of the goal!
"GOALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!"
"A wonderful collaboration from Barcelona, Su Dong opened the scoring for the team!"
"He should thank Ronaldinho. It was the wonderful assist from his Brazilian teammate that created an excellent opportunity for him!"
After Su Dong scored, he turned around and rushed towards Ronaldinho immediately. Before the Brazilian could react, Su Dong had directly picked him up and carried him all the way to celebrate.
This made Deco, Xavi, Belletti and others who were chasing behind them feel very strange.
Don't you mean that there is a conflict between these two people?
But soon, everyone woke up and had to secretly praise Su Dong.
No one knows whether Ronaldinho's assist to him was out of professional ethics or something else, but an assist is an assist.
Su Dong took this opportunity to celebrate with us. This was tantamount to taking the opportunity to tell everyone outside that we have no conflicts!
Ronaldinho also put his arm around Su Dong's shoulders and celebrated his goal in front of live TV cameras.
At the moment when he passed the ball just now, he really didn't think too much, he just thought about passing the ball into the gap.
As for after the news spread, he did feel a little regretful in his heart. After all, people have selfish motives, but he soon discovered that he was more happy because the team scored a goal.
…
Rijkaard stood on the sidelines, silently watching the two superstars in the team, who were known to have conflicts, celebrating the goal arm in arm, which made him happy.
If Su Dong and Ronaldinho were fighting for the position of the first brother, it would be very difficult for him as a head coach. This is why he chose to vote for Ronaldinho in the first place.
The reason for Dinho, not Xavi.
As a head coach, he needs to balance the forces in the locker room.
Everyone has selfish motives, and everyone joins a group to keep warm.
If there are too many Brazilian players, it will be good, but if there are too many local players, it won't?
As a head coach, the most important thing is to control the balance so that everyone can train and compete without any worries.
If there are local players behind Puyol and Xavi, and Brazilian players behind Ronaldinho, then Sudong is alone, but he does well in the locker room, at least much better than Giuly.
The French player is also a loner. He also scores a lot of goals, but he is a bit out of place in the locker room.
On the contrary, it is Su Dong. I heard that in the past two days, he has been playing indoor football with Puyol, Xavi and others every day when he has time. On the night of the 13th, Puyol also called on the whole team to hold a game for Su Dong.
Birthday dinner.
It can be seen that Su Dong has integrated very quickly and has a good relationship with his teammates.
This is a good thing!
This Barcelona team is completely different from other giants. If they cannot integrate, the players will not be able to stay here.
Especially tonight, when he saw Su Dong celebrating a goal with Ronaldinho, Rijkaard couldn't help but laugh, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "Although Su Dong is young, he is a good person.
He is low-key and diligent, but he is still quite shrewd at heart.”
"It's a little clever." Tenkat's lips raised slightly, "But we still have to keep a little distance from the Brazilian players."
Rijkaard looked at his assistant and said nothing more.
Tenkat was very dissatisfied with the nightlife of Ronaldinho and others, and always felt that this was a major hidden danger.
Rijkaard thought it was nothing, as long as it didn't affect the game, he would be happy to turn a blind eye.
…
After Su Dong's goal took the lead, the game once again reached a stalemate.
In the second half, the game changed sides and Barcelona tried to launch a wave of attacks.
In the 51st minute, Su Dong retreated outside the penalty area and turned his back to receive the direct pass from Xavi. He used his body to firmly block Heitinga behind him. After stopping the ball, he turned around and quickly rushed into the penalty area with the ball.
.
Seeing that Su Dong was about to break out of the encirclement, Haitinga became anxious and took action directly, pushing Su Dong hard from behind.
When he was in Sporting Lisbon, Jardel scolded Su Dong, thinking that he was too stupid and didn't know how to fall to the ground. But now he has learned better. Heitinga pushed behind him and he stopped persisting. After losing his balance slightly,
, the whole person fell forward directly.
The Ajax central defender was stunned!
Damn, you were so strong when you suppressed me just now, now you push me and I fall down?
Su Dong doesn't care, I'm just lying in the penalty area and won't get up. Who wants you to have a hand?
If every time an offensive player brings the ball into the penalty area, the defender takes a shot and is not responsible, then why should others play?
With that skill, why don't you become a goalkeeper?
The referee blew the whistle for a foul and immediately ran over, gave Haiting a yellow card and awarded a penalty kick.
The entire stadium booed, but the referee still insisted on his decision.
Su Dong also got up from the ground, looking at Heitinga's aggrieved face, he felt helpless in his heart.
It's not my fault, it's your fault.
After picking up the football from the ground, Su Dong searched for it in the crowd, walked directly to Ronaldinho, put the football in his hand into Ronaldinho's hand, and patted him on the shoulder.
He quickly ran out of the penalty area.
Ronaldinho was a little stunned.
Does this mean he is asked to take penalty kicks?
Logically speaking, it is understandable that Su Dong would take the penalty kick created by himself.
But now, he selflessly gave this penalty kick opportunity to Ronaldinho. This was obviously a show of goodwill, and it was also a reward for Ronaldinho's assist just now.
Su Dong walked away without saying anything. Ronaldinho, on the other hand, felt comfortable and unpretentious. He turned his head, smiled and nodded towards Su Dong, and carried the football to the penalty spot.
He really needs a goal!
…
After Ronaldinho scored a penalty kick, Barcelona took a 2-0 lead.
Then in the 78th minute, Sudong passed the ball to the right. Belletti and Giuly had a beautiful cooperation on the right. The French winger hit the goal, further expanding the score for Barcelona.
Su Dong was immediately replaced by Larsson. Just four minutes later, Larsson scored another victory for Barcelona with a header.
Four to zero!
…
"so beautiful!"
Seeing Larsson score, Su Dong stood up from the bench excitedly and applauded him.
Ronaldinho, who was replaced by Iniesta after 65 minutes of playing, sat next to him and kept watching Su Dong. He didn't make up his mind until he was sure that Su Dong was not faking.
"Su, I heard that your physical therapist is very good, is it true?" Ronaldinho looked at the direction of the court and seemed to ask casually, but in fact, he was quite uneasy in his heart. He had no idea.
.
Su Dong glanced at his teammates and nodded, "Grant is indeed very good. He is not only a physical therapist, but also a doctor. He used to be a team doctor and is a good hand in rehabilitation training."
After a pause, Su Dong looked down at Ronaldinho's right ankle again, "I heard that your ankle injury has not healed? How about I let him take a look at it when I get back?"
"
Everyone was surprised that Ronaldinho could accompany the team to the away game because he did not get permission from the team doctor.
But not only did he come, he played in the game.
Throughout the more than 60 minutes he played, except for the assist to Su Dong, he did not perform very well.
The players in the team all knew that he was anxious to come back and had an injury on his foot.
I heard that Rijkaard originally did not plan to let him play, but he was very tough and insisted on playing.
At this moment, he took the initiative to ask Grant Downing again, and Su Dong immediately understood what he meant.
Ronaldinho was surprised. He just mentioned it, but he didn't expect Su Dong to be so generous and generous. This actually made him feel a little ashamed. Did he feel that what he had done before was too small-minded?
Deco also mentioned to him several times that Su Dong's personal trainer was well-known and very capable. The reason why Su Dong rarely suffered injuries was inseparable from him.
It's just that Ronaldinho didn't expect that Su Dong would agree to help him without hesitation.
"Thank you!" Ronaldinho said.
"You're welcome." Su Dong shook his head.
After a pause, he continued: "I know that there are actually many rumors outside that will inevitably affect us, but I want to say that I will not be affected by the outside world. My purpose here is very simple, which is to play football.
, improve yourself, I really admire your skills and hope we can cooperate well."
"The top spot in the team and personal honor are the pursuit of every professional player. Everyone will want to fight for it, and you and I are no exception. But what I can guarantee is that I will only rely on my own efforts and strength to win.
Fight, I believe, you do too!"
Ronaldinho nodded after hearing this. He understood what Su Dong meant.
Struggle is inevitable because no one will let it go.
But they want to fight between gentlemen!
Ronaldinho has a very casual character. For a period of time, the pressure has made him unhappy. But at this moment, when he said this to Su Dong, he felt relaxed and smiled.
It reappeared on his face, and the cute little buck teeth were exposed again.
"I heard that you are occupying my indoor football field now?" Ronaldinho asked with a smile.
Su Dong looked at his expression and knew that the matter was settled. He immediately smiled and challenged: "What? You are not convinced?"
"You know what? When it comes to football, whether it's indoors or outdoors, or even on the beach or on the water, we Brazilians have always been like this." Ronaldinho showed his thumbs up, quite proudly.
"Then find a chance to practice!" Su Dong stretched out his hand.
