Pirated Ronaldo

Chapter 377 Reminiscing with old friends

Benfica won the Europa League last season. However, the intensity of the Champions League competition is far from comparable to the Europa League, just as Newcastle United cannot be compared with Manchester United.

From this point of view, it is not wrong for Jose Camacho to speak more tactfully. After all, Benfica’s strength is inferior to that of Manchester United. Sometimes, it will actually affect Benfica's follow-up games.

The English media's prediction for this game is that Manchester United may encounter some troubles, but they will win in the end, and it will not be easy for Benfica to draw.

The reason is very simple. The defensive power of the Portuguese Super League team has always been criticized. Not to mention that Benfica's defense is like tofu under Manchester United's offensive, but it is difficult to prevent Manchester United from scoring for 90 minutes. It is a fact. In other words, if Benfica cannot break through Manchester United's defense and score a goal, it will be very difficult for them to score a point!

Another factor that has to be mentioned is that this game is Manchester United's home game. The "home whistle" + home fans advantage once again increased Manchester United's winning rate.

In other words, the biggest problem for Premier League teams participating in the European League is not the strength factor, but the fact that many Premier League players have adapted to high confrontation and strong collisions, and it is difficult for them to adapt to the penalty standards of the European League. warplane.

However, when a Premier League team participating in the European League is playing at home, the so-called "home whistle" can more or less play a role in offsetting the unfavorable factors from the penalty scale.

In this way, Camacho's remarks of "based on getting one point" are exactly the same as the media's predictions. Benfica should be very satisfied if they can get one point. At least after two rounds, they can win with With 4 points, they are at the top of the four teams in Group D. As long as there are no mistakes in the next four rounds, it will not be a problem to finally get the top two in Group D.

"Hahahaha! Ronaldo, you are doing well in the Premier League! Manchester United twin stars, tied with England's head striker Wayne Rooney!... Do you know? Because of your success in England, Carnidi's reputation has surpassed Akchit! Besides you, which young Portuguese striker can gain a foothold in the Premier League? Not to mention the giants Manchester United!"

"Brother Nuno... I don't know if I can be the starter for a long time at Manchester United. Hehe, everything depends on Ferguson's vision. No one can guess the mind of the old Scottish man."

"Ronando, don't be humble! Not only are Benfica and Carnidi famous now, but even us Amandolas are proud! Do you know? There are already sponsors who have taken a fancy to our building The small stadium, now there are two regular playing fields and lounges... Brothers can play there for free, the same as before! Next time you go back, you must go and see, everyone wants to Let’s play football with you again! Oh, by the way, Nanito, I have brought you a message, he said that he has improved a lot and wants to single out with you!”

Ronaldo has only been in Benfica for half a season, but the teammates in the team really like him very much.

Even in addition to Ze Roy who is always talking and Nuno Gomez who is always smiling, even Tomislav Sokota and Luis Horacio who had a relationship with Ronando in the past The players also maintain a friendly and respectful attitude towards Ronaldo.

"Respect"!
To say that football players are actually very simple, everyone just relies on playing football to make a living, which is no different from doing other jobs. Besides, Portugal is not an economically developed country. Many professional players’ families’ economic conditions are not good. Behind him, there is a big family waiting for him to become famous and make a fortune, to help everyone improve their lives.

Therefore, whoever can help other players improve their reputation and bring benefits must be a very popular person!

This rule is not absolute, but at least it is true in most cases. Last season, because of the joining of Ronaldo, Benfica suddenly emerged and snatched the greatest honor possible from the other two competitors in the Portuguese Super League. Therefore, all Benfica first-team players have become beneficiaries. Even if there is no direct salary increase, they will make great progress in the endorsement market. If they transfer in the future, they will also have the capital to negotiate treatment with the new club, because their They all wear the aura of "Triple Crown Players".

Judging from the current situation, the players of Benfica's first team last season were among the players of the same level in China, and they had the most enjoyable lives!
This time, Benfica came to Manchester, and Ronando was the host. Naturally, he specially reserved a small bar near the hotel where Benfica took over, and invited old friends to get together.

Spanish coach Jose Camacho is very open-minded about these matters. Although the Champions League group stage is important, it is not a big game like the World Cup or the European Cup. There is no need for closed management of the team, as long as the players do not make trouble outside. It doesn't matter until it's late.

Except for the new captain Nuno Gomez, Ronando's best friends in Benfica are of course Manuel Fernandez and Ze Roy, a pair of black brothers who used to hang out in Amandola The bosses of the "Benfica Gang", and the teenager Nani is the boss of the "Sporting Lisbon Gang".

Ronando was not alone in entertaining old friends. As his buddies, Gerard Pique and Adam Exley followed.

"Boss Nuno, Ronando often told me about your strength. He said that your shooting level is comparable to that of Ruud van Nistelrooy... Hey, I may play this game. I am a new central defender of Manchester United. .” Gerard Pique showed off his status in the team rather stinkingly.

"Spanish big man, don't think you can defend against Captain Nuno! Our Portuguese striker is the same as the Premier League!... I am a defensive midfielder, just one year older than you. Let's compare who is better if we have a chance. sharp?"

Regarding Gerard Pique's joke, before Nuno Gomez opened his mouth, Manuel Fernandez sarcastically said with a cold face.

"I'm going! Manuel, don't show your dead face! Pique is just joking, this guy likes to brag about how capable he is!" Ronando grabbed one of them with one hand and quickly smoothed things over: "You are all me My buddies, today I’m here to have fun and catch up on the old days, not to bicker!...Brother Nuno, don’t take it to heart! This kid is just a fool despite his tall and tall!...Pike, that’s My brother! Do you know? Just like Brother Roy treats me, I rely on Brother Nuno and Brother Simao to take care of me in Benfica!"

Today's Ronando has learned to have both ways. In fact, these people in front of him are all his friends, and he doesn't want to offend any of them.

Ronando is alone in Europe, unlike other players who have brothers and sisters or good friends who have played since childhood, he seems lonely in comparison. In addition, he has an oriental face, and he is born with the people around him. It's different, if you have a withdrawn personality, you will easily become a loner.

Manchester United's newly promoted star Ronando entertained old Benfica teammates in his own name. Naturally, Benfica's side is not only those old friends from the past, and there are inevitably a few new faces.

"Ronando, let me introduce to you... Fabrizio Miccoli, a Juventus player, he is quite talented! You guys know each other." Nuno Gomez suddenly pulled a A short, strong white man came over and introduced him to Ronando.

The guy who can be specially introduced by Benfica captain Nuno Gomez will not be easy!
Fabrizio Miccoli, an Italian striker, is only 170cm tall, slightly fat, with a hearty smile, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and when he smiles, the two lumps of flesh on the cheekbones on both sides are piled up, plus His long black hair is scattered behind his head. At first glance, he looks a bit like the Argentine football king Maradona.

In fact, Italian striker Fabrizio Miccoli just has a resounding nickname "Italian Maradona"!
Fabrizio Miccoli, who is 26 years old this year, signed with Juventus in 2002. He only played for Juventus for one season in the next three seasons, and was loaned out for the other two seasons. During this period, Although he has been selected for the Italian national team many times and can maintain about 10 goals per season in the league, he still cannot occupy the main position in Juventus, which is full of talents, and was loaned to Benfica again this season.

"Hello, Brother Fabrizio!...I have heard of the famous Italian Maradona! I will tell you secretly that Rooney has specially studied your game video, some of his technical moves, I still learned from watching your game video!"

Ronando shook hands with Fabrizio Miccoli enthusiastically, leaned into his ear and pretended to whisper.

Unless you have already become an enemy, you must be enthusiastic when you meet. This is how Ronando closes the relationship with new friends. Anyway, he is young, and almost all the players who can face him are older than him. Big brother is not shameful, and everyone knows that the meaning of "big brother" is completely different from the meaning of Ronando calling Nuno Gomez big brother, it is just a courtesy address,

"Haha! You little guy, you and Rooney are both superstars in Europe, so don't make fun of me!" Fabrizio Miccoli let out a hearty laugh.

"Supernova... Hey! Brother Fabrizio, you really know how to joke..."

Ronaldo knew very well that the most threatening player for Benfica this season, apart from Nuno Gomez, was the fat Italian Fabrizio Miccoli in front of him.

It seems that people who are called "Little Fatty" and can be the main striker in a decent team are all talents!

Isn't Wayne Rooney just a little fat guy, he has a lot of people, he was selected for the national team at the age of 17, and became one of the striker partners of the England team at the age of 18. He made his mark in the European Cup, which is one of the few achievements in Europe. And the fat Italian Fabrizio Miccoli is not as powerful as Rooney, but he is also an Italian international. He participated in the 2004 European Cup. Compared with ordinary players, he is also a great talent.
