Pirated Ronaldo

Chapter 24 Forward!Keep going forward!
quick!allow!ruthless!
Quick kicks, accurate ball routes, fierce straight running, some people describe Ronaldo's way of breakthrough: knowing what he is going to do, but you just can't keep up with him!To put it figuratively, it is an unreasonable use of physical advantages to force a breakthrough, simple and rude!
This is completely different from the usual style of Portuguese players who like to stick the ball. They pay attention to the sudden change of rhythm from slow to fast.

Of course, Ronaldo's ability to do this has a lot to do with his solid basic skills. It cannot be said that what he learned in Akchit was useless. He just formed his own style on this basis.

Ronando's basic skills are definitely not good, and he probably will never learn the essence of Ronaldo.

However, he can quickly grow himself into a "pirated Ronaldo", that is, to learn that "simple and rude" way of dribbling as soon as possible.

Too much to chew, Ronaldo focused on a classic move after Ronaldo became famous: toe poking the ball!
If you want to ask which way of touching the ball can make the ball pop out from your feet, fast and urgent, making it difficult for the opponent to guard against?That is to use the toe to poke the ball. Not only is the foot concealed, but the ball is extremely fast at the moment of the foot. It is a very effective technical action to avoid the defensive player's pressing.

After practicing with Simao Sabrosa for two days, Ronando found that he could not become a skilled dribbler like Simao Sabrosa, so he adjusted his training direction and gave up other technical movements. Specialize in one, the so-called "knowledge of everything is not as good as proficiency", if he can master the stability of toe poking the ball, he will be able to effectively cover up his technical defects immediately and become a distinctive ball-handling player.

For Ronando's choice, the experienced Simao Sabrosa is of course a strong support.

Simao Sabrosa's attitude towards football is exactly in line with the spirit of Akchit's training of players: freedom, not to be imprisoned.

Take Simao Sabrosa himself as an example. Although he is proficient in all football skills like other Portuguese players, but because of his short stature, what he is best at is making sudden stops and changing lines, using rhythm changes to avoid defensive players interference, which is his specialty.

However, if Ronando completely copied Simao Sabrosa's dribbling style, it would undoubtedly be half the effort. Ronando has a strong body and strong impact resistance. He doesn't need to hide at all, and can use his physical advantage to take advantage. Taking a sudden kick and then forcing it straight in is something Simao Sabrosa envied but could not do. Once Ronando has successfully mastered this technique, he can use one word to describe it: sharp!
In this way, such a pair of brothers who defected from Akchit to Benfica persisted on the training ground.

Simao Sabrosa really wanted to know in his heart, how far could this young junior who felt super strong but mediocre in talent in front of him, full of contradictions because of this, go?

After Ronaldo came to Benfica, he lived in the club's youth team player dormitory. In order to take care of him, the club arranged a single room for him.

This is actually a hotel-style apartment, semi-closed, the front door is outside, and the back door leads to the interior of the Benfica club. In addition to the Benfica youth team, this is also the dormitory area of ​​​​the Benfica football school. It is the same as Sporting Lisbon. Benfica, as a Portuguese super giant, of course also has its own The youth training camp is called "Carnidi Youth Training Camp", but the reputation of this youth training camp is much smaller than that of the Akchit Youth Training Camp. The main reason is that Figo has never been here. Such a big player.

Ronando's current teammate Manuel Fernandez came from the Carnidi youth academy.

However, the Carnidi Youth Academy has a very famous headmaster: Eusebio Fariala!
Today Eusebio is an old man who is nearly 62 years old. He is a symbol of Portuguese football and has played for Benfica for 15 years. Of course, Benfica cannot let go of such a star figure. The coach, but Eusebio, who is brave and good at fighting on the field, is very incompetent as a coach. After serving as a goalkeeper coach for a period of time, he became the principal of the football school. This has been done for 20 years.

Just like the full-body bronze statue erected outside the Stadium of Light, Eusebio is a gold-lettered signboard for Benfica.

On Tuesday, January 1th, Benfica's first team regrouped and Ronaldo made his first public appearance in the team.

It’s sad to say that Ronaldo caused such a big disturbance, but Benfica kept a low profile about his transfer. They just arranged a small joining ceremony for him within the club. It’s an exaggeration to say it’s “small” , Only two reporters from the Benfica Club's L'Equipe newspaper were present at the scene. The transfer manager Cesar Vieira handed over a No. 22 jersey to Ronaldo on behalf of the club, and that's all.

Obviously, although Benfica has expectations for Ronaldo, it does not dare to be overconfident. It must minimize the negative impact on the club when Ronaldo fails.

If it is said that the club held a grand joining ceremony for Ronaldo with great fanfare, and Ronaldo was immediately humiliated in the game, then it would be Benfica who could not step down!

The player contract provided by Benfica to Ronaldo is also very demanding: a three-year contract, an annual salary of 6000 euros, with an annual increase of 15%, and the individual and the club each account for 50% of the portrait rights.

This is simply a contract of sale, with an annual salary of 6000 euros, which is not much better than that of Portuguese C players. However, what qualifications does Ronando have to bargain now?Benfica has already paid 12 euros for him, and Ronaldo can only be grateful for providing him with such a contract of 6000 euros. Fortunately, the club provided him with board and lodging, which reduced the pressure on Ronando’s life , You can play football with one mind.

In the afternoon, Ronando strolled out from the room on the 12th floor, and saw that the place has become much more lively. Benfica players at all levels have returned. Many young players live in this hotel. They gather in twos and threes Chat together.

When Ronando walked out of the room, the surroundings fell silent, everyone's eyes were fixed on him, but no one stepped forward to say hello to this "first-team player".

Ronaldo sighed in his heart. This scene was somewhat similar to the Akchit training camp. In the eyes of others, he was still an outlier. In fact, he transferred to Benfica, not only the fans of Sporting Lisbon were angry, but also the players and fans of Benfica. Not necessarily very welcome!

He is different from Simao Sabrosa, Simao is a genius, but he is a waste.

A waste, because Benfica wanted to beat their opponents, and was lucky enough to get the favor of the club, and entered the first team at the age of 17. Isn't this shit luck?Those talented young people, if they are not jealous, they are out of their minds. Even Fernandez said that he is very jealous of Ronando's good luck, let alone others?
"Madeira monster..."

"Portuguese C team..."

"Nothing will..."

When Ronando turned around, some whispered discussions kept coming into his ears from behind, but Ronando remained unmoved, raised his head and looked straight ahead, and walked slowly towards the elevator, just like Karina As Ferro said to him, a Portuguese man should never bow his head.

"Although I'm not really Portuguese, I'm Chinese! Be strong! When I score goals on the court, let's see who dares to talk too much!"

※※※

Ronando took the elevator down to the hotel lobby, turned to the passage leading to the interior of the club, and happened to meet a very old black man head-on.

It turned out to be "Black Panther" Eusebio!
Ronando quickly stepped aside, lowered his head slightly, and whispered respectfully: "Hello! Dear Mr. Fariala."

Ronando can not bow his head to others, but he must bow to the man in front of him!

Eusebio can be said to be the most outstanding talent in the history of European football. Let alone Ronaldo, even Ronaldo after becoming famous must respect him. Figo, the boss who was born in Akchit, I can only be willing to call Eusebio "our king", which shows Eusebio's status in Portuguese football.

"Well. Hello, lad."

Eusebio agreed casually, but then he stopped and looked over.

"Oh! You are that young man from Akchit!" Eusebio stepped forward, reached out and patted Ronando's strong arm, and sighed: "Not bad! You have a good physique for playing football. "

Eusebio was not tall, half a head shorter than Ronando, with a square face. Although he was getting older, he still didn't look very fat.

"Although you are not a student of the Carnidi youth academy, as an old man, I still want to tell you. When you wear the Benfica jersey, you should do your best for this team! This ball The team has no league championship for 10 years and no European championship for 42 years. The burden of breaking these curses falls on the shoulders of young players. A great team will eventually produce great players. Don’t think you can’t, Maybe, you are the one the Benfica fans have been waiting for for a long time!"

Eusebio's words were somewhat dogmatic, and Ronando could understand them. As a symbol of Benfica, these words may have been said countless times by the old man, but Ronando was still very grateful.

"Mr. Fariala, I will remember your words! I will strive to become that long-awaited person!"

Eusebio smiled suddenly, and he blinked and said: "Ronaldo, we have similar backgrounds, so I understand the pressure you face. But, a strong man, dare to face any pressure! When you become a When you are a real star, you will understand that we are players, and football is all we have! There are many helplessness in this world, but how to judge a player ultimately depends on his achievements in football.”

"Either mediocre, or brilliant! You have chosen a more difficult path than others, so you can only move forward! Keep moving forward!"
