It's cheating, but Hazard

Chapter 105 Chapter 103 Ice and Fire (Daily Transition)

"Pruna-Pruna!"

Guardiola was like a cat with its tail pointed at, covering his head in pain.

He originally thought that Pepe was suspended. Today was a sunny day, and he came on as a substitute in the second half, so Charlton would be much safer in this game. However, he did not expect that in addition to Pepe, Real Madrid also had Gago!
When Xavi saw Puyol rushing up, he subconsciously reached out and grabbed his clothes, "Calm down, Captain."

Puyol clenched his hands, "Then wait a moment..."

"Hold the balance," Xavi covered his mouth, "I will cooperate with Iniesta later, don't get a yellow card."

Henry was not far away. He rushed over and kicked Gago in the butt. "Damn it, what do you want to do?"

Gago covered his butt with one hand and stared at Henry fiercely, looking ready to fight back at any time.

The referee quickly separated Henry and Gago, but the red and blue tide and the white torrent continued to converge.

There were constant cheers and curses coming from the stadium, and the air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder.

【Charlotte Bar】

"It will be dawn soon, damn, I haven't even finished watching the game yet and I have to go to work. Why hasn't the earth exploded yet?"

"Brother, where are you from? Why is it getting light so soon?"

"In the easternmost part of China, it's already dawn at four o'clock."

"I'm an alien, turn me 50 and attack the earth immediately."

"I'm from Earth. Turn me 51, or I'll tell everyone about your plan."

"You are out, I am also an alien, turn me 30, and I will attack the earth."

"Can you tell me before the explosion? I'll give the boss a slap first :("

"Tell me by the way, I'll give Party A a few slaps in the face, too."

"After I smoked it, I realized it was just a fake shot :)"

"That's why the people who save the world are junior high school students."

"Fuck, Charles was kicked down!"

"I didn't have much quality to begin with, and after seeing this, I was immediately killed."

……

Charles lay on the ground, holding his legs, motionless.

The place that was kicked first is now numb and I can't feel it anymore. My calf also hurts a little. I don't know if it's because the studs cut the skin.

Pruna directly arranged for Charles to sit on the stretcher.

According to general practice, as long as Charles is injured, unless he insists, he must go off the field for examination and rest.

"Charles, how are you feeling?" Guardiola rushed over like a worried old woman, "Pruna, how is he?"

Pruna slowly took off the Charles socks, "It's bleeding, but the calf is fine, it will scab over soon, and the bones should not be injured. It's just that it's hard to tell about the ankle right now. Let's go to the hospital and get checked with Leo later."

Guardiola's face was as pale as paper, like a mermaid dancing on the edge of a knife. "Okay, okay, I'll ask Charlie to take you to the hospital. It's only been 10 minutes, Leo should still be there. Tell me as soon as you're done checking it out."

"Xia Li, don't worry. Just check carefully. There will be nothing wrong..."

Charles nodded vaguely while lying on the stretcher.

This was different from before. Charles really felt that he was injured, and it was a serious one.

Soon, Charles was taken to the hospital.

Messi sat on the chair and looked at Charles in surprise, "Why are you here? The game isn't over yet, right?"

"I'm here to keep you company," Ciel pointed to his ankle and smiled, "I hope it won't end up like Marcos."

There was obviously not much time left in the game and Barcelona had firmly grasped the initiative, but Guardiola felt extremely tormented and every second felt like a year.

But unexpectedly, less than ten minutes after Charles was substituted, Ramos pushed Henry to the ground while returning to defense. Henry fell to the ground holding his knee and wailing in pain.

Guardiola watched numbly as Pruna carried his medicine box onto the field again. After waiting for a while, he once again saw Pruna's signal for a substitution. His dry eyes could no longer shed a single tear.

Henry sat in a wheelchair, looking down at the thick ice pack tied to his knees, "Pep, I don't think I can make it..."

"It'll be alright," Guardiola hugged Henry, closed his eyes, and felt a pain in his heart. "Blau, accompany him to the hospital. Leo and Charles probably haven't finished their checkups yet. Let me know when you have any news."

Blau nodded and took Henry's wheelchair.

After a long and anxious wait, the referee finally blew the whistle to end the game. When Guardiola heard the whistle, he ran into the locker room and picked up his mobile phone, but did not receive any message.

"Pep, what's going on," Vilanova pushed open the door.

"You go to the press conference, I'll go to the hospital first," Guardiola packed his things in a hurry, "Don't let go of Gago, Ramos, and that Marcelo!"

With sparks and lightning all the way, Guardiola finally arrived at the hospital.

After a careful examination, the sports medicine expert sat in front of Guardiola with a dozen checklists.

"Are Charles, Henry and Leo okay?" Guardiola frowned, clasped his hands together, sat awkwardly in the chair, and looked at the doctor hopefully.

The doctor looked at the checkup list again and said, "Well, Messi's problem is the mildest. He needs to rest for a week."

"Henry and Ciel are in much more serious condition."

Guardiola almost jumped up, "How serious is it?"

Barcelona will play away in the next game, and Chelsea will probably still park the bus.

Barcelona is now the most offensive team in Europe. If Chelsea's defense presses forward, Charles and Messi can directly break through Chelsea's defense into a sieve.

At the same time, Chelsea's attacking line composed of Anelka, Drogba and Malouda still has a certain gap in ability compared to Barcelona's "trident".

But what if Barcelona can’t form a “trident”?

Neither Messi nor Eto'o has the ability to attack on the left like Henry or Charles. These two are the only ones who have this ability. It would be better to let Messi come instead of Keita.

In addition, Milito and Marcos are injured among the three central defenders, and Puyol has accumulated three yellow cards and will be suspended...

"As for Henry, his knee injury requires two weeks of rest. As for Charles, his ankle injury is more serious than Messi's, so he will also need to rest for about two weeks."

The doctor's temperature was clearly 37 degrees, but he said what Guardiola least wanted to hear.

For players, it is best not to get injured in either knee or ankle injuries.

Once injured, both the length and ability of a career will be shortened and reduced. Now, a national derby directly sent all three of his strikers to the hospital, and the injuries were all to the knees and ankles.

If possible, he would rather Charles not score in this game, he would rather lose the game than see his players get injured.

"There is some good news," the doctor pushed his glasses again. "According to our judgment, although Messi and Charles' ankles are injured, it will not affect their future performance."
"That's good," Guardiola was relieved to hear this and took out his mobile phone.

Now, it's time for Real Madrid's players to pay a price.

……

Charles and his two teammates did not stay in the hospital for long. They did not return to Real Madrid to reunite with the team, but went directly to Barajas Airport to wait for their teammates to arrive.

After defeating Real Madrid 8:2, the whole team was in ecstasy.

On the plane, Pique also picked up the phone on the plane, played the role of DJ, and directed his teammates to sing by dancing and gesticulating.

The singing in the cabin never stopped.

Queen's "We are the champions" played until the plane arrived and slowly descended.

Charles, who was drowsy in a wheelchair, was just awakened by the cold wind when he got out of the airport. When he opened his eyes, he saw that it was already 00:30 in the morning, but the road was still surrounded by fans.

The thick red smoke glued the sky and the earth together.

Looking from afar, under the lighting that seems like daylight, in addition to the fiery faces, what is more eye-catching are the flags looming in the red mist.

The shouts, the waving of flags, and the sounds of smoke bombs surged in from the roadside like a tide.

"There are so many people," Charles couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the sea of ​​people on the roadside.

Harvey pushed Charles onto the bus. "The crowds here aren't the largest yet. There will be more people going to the Canaretas Fountain Square to celebrate."

……

Guardiola announced that the team would be given a day and a half off.

This morning, Charles slept in for a rare time. When he woke up, he saw that almost all the newspapers were reporting on yesterday's match.

Mundo Deportivo: "Charles surpassed Ronaldinho's miracle, ascended the throne at the Bernabeu and began his domination of football."

"In yesterday's game, Charles came on as a substitute in the second half, but in just nine minutes, he scored five goals."

"Five goals, five different styles, all in just 10 minutes."

"No matter from which angle you watch this game, no matter who watches it, even the diehard fans of Real Madrid, you have to sigh that in this game, God has descended on the Bernabeu."

"But unfortunately, God was wearing the No. 17 Barcelona jersey that night."

"The game ended with a score of 2:8. This was destined to be a classic game, but Barcelona's eight goals were not even all of them. They had more opportunities to score goals, and they had the ability to do so."

“Perhaps in a long, long time, just like the first edition of Antonio Machado’s poem “Loneliness” has long been lost in the long river of time, but its content is still engraved in everyone’s heart word for word more than a hundred years later, the miracle created by Charles in this game will also be remembered forever.”

L'Equipe: "Yesterday at the Bernabéu Stadium, a wonderful match of the century took place."

"While we couldn't help but marvel at Barcelona's offensive firepower and Charr's five goals in nine minutes, the fouls committed by some players were like maggots on the tarsal bones, casting an ignominious shadow on this game."

"In the first half of the game, Messi was fouled by Marcelo and was replaced by Guardiola at halftime."

"The next one is the familiar Charles, the 'Supreme King'. Maybe Charles will create another miracle in the next minute, but the Real Madrid players obviously cannot tolerate this."

"In the 55th minute, Gago fouled Charles ruthlessly, the first kick aimed at his ankle, and the second kick scratched Charles' calf."

"Some people might have defended it at first, but when the Barcelona team doctor took off Charles' socks and revealed the blood, everyone had to remain silent."

"This is not a foul on Charles, this is blasphemy against football."

"After getting Charles to hospital as they wished, they turned to Henry and finally, in the 60th minute, a second Frenchman, a third member of the Barcelona striker, was taken to hospital."*
"We don't know how to greet these three people when they gather in the hospital, with tears or with silence?"

"Fouls like this are absolutely intolerable."

"If anyone scores a goal in the future, he will be sent to the hospital. When that day comes, it will be the day when football dies. We must let Marcelo, Gago, Ramos and others bear the consequences of their mistakes."

"Asian Times": "Barcelona is full of injured players. In addition to the crisis in the defense, it is also facing a crisis in the forward line."

"After Barcelona and Chelsea drew 0-0 in the first leg, both teams won a hearty victory in the league."

"But in terms of personnel allocation, it is extremely disadvantageous to Barcelona."

"Following the suspension of defensive general Puyol and the absence of Marcos due to injury, forward general Henry and 'Nine Five Supreme' Charles may miss the second leg against Chelsea due to knee injury and ankle injury respectively."

Ciel glanced at his ankle and shook his head.

He would have to go for another check-up later, but he didn't know if it was an illusion. After all, he had never suffered such an injury before. He felt that he was almost healed now.

Charles is still very concerned about whether Real Madrid players will receive additional penalties.

If I were to be substituted by the opposing players in every game, there would be no need to play the game.

At noon, Charles went to the hospital to check his ankle again. When he came back and turned on the TV, he saw the news about Barcelona before he saw the news of additional penalties.

Spanish TV8: "After defeating Real Madrid 2-5000 away, Barcelona fans immediately started a festive celebration. Barcelona fans came to the famous Canaretas Fountain Square in Barcelona to celebrate."

"The celebrations lasted until 4am local time, after which most fans went home to rest. But there were still 300 radical fans who stayed near the Canaretas Fountain."

"In order to vent their passion, these fans threw stones at the glass windows of the surrounding businesses. Barcelona police eventually arrested five fans who caused the incident. Among them, there were even two minors."

Spanish Channel 6: "Early this morning, in San Salvador, the capital of El Salvador, a Barcelona fan was beaten to death after the national derby."

"After Barcelona defeated Real Madrid 8-2, Antonio Rivas, unable to suppress his passion, celebrated the victory in a public place, which led to a conflict with the three suspects."

"The three suspects punched, kicked and stabbed Antonio Rivas several times with a knife."

"After being taken to hospital, Antonio Rivas sadly passed away on Sunday."

"According to the local police in San Salvador, the three suspects have all been arrested. But the police did not disclose whether the three perpetrators were Real Madrid fans."

Ciel put down the remote, shocked.

It is understandable to bring joy to others. After all, spreading joy is a good thing.

But it is unreasonable to bring other people's love, hate, and vengeance into the picture and become an extreme fan.

*: In one game, Messi's ankle was stepped on and bent at 90 degrees, but it healed in just one week. This shows how resistant he is to injuries.

*: Henry was injured in the first half, but he persisted until the 60th minute before being replaced by Keita. The narrative style was changed here, and it can be regarded as an adaptation based on reality.
