Fox in the Penalty Area

Chapter 12: pre-season

Hu Lai looked at the lighting engineer and sound engineer who were busy in his house, turned his head to the reporter Wang Shanshan who was standing next to him, and said, "You guys are going to shoot a documentary now, will you feel... imperial?"

"Ah?" Wang Shanshan was stunned for a moment, then she understood what Hu Lai was talking about, and then she smiled, "No, no. We are just getting ready. We can't wait for you guys to win the Golden Globe before making a documentary, right?"

"Why not? Didn't Qingqing win the Golden Globe first and then shoot?"

"The nature is different. Qingqing's is a biography, and this time our focus is to shoot the story before and after the two of you won the Golden Globe at the same time. It's a news documentary..."

Hu Lai smiled: "There should be no problem with Qingqing. If I don't win the Golden Globe Award, wouldn't all your work be done in vain?"

Wang Shanshan shook her head like a rattle: "That's impossible, can't you win the Golden Globe Award with such an achievement?"

Hu Lai thought, what's wrong with my grades? In another time and space, I won the World Cup and did not win the Golden Ball. The Golden Ball is much harder to win than the World Cup...

But he didn't say it, because Wang Shanshan didn't understand it. He just said: "Football is round, so is the Golden Ball."

Wang Shanshan thought about it for a while, and then said seriously: "If... I mean if, if you really didn't win the Golden Globe Award, then this documentary will truthfully record the fact that you didn't win the Golden Globe Award. Everything that happened before and after. And show it to the audience. This is the meaning of the documentary. In fact, at the World Cup next year, the headquarters will also arrange a filming team to shoot a documentary with the team to show the national team participating in the World Cup for the second time. All experiences are recorded, no matter what the results are at that time, it is very meaningful to record this matter itself.”

Hu Lai nodded: "I see... that's ok, you guys can shoot. If there is anything that needs our cooperation, just say it directly. You don't have to go through Song Jiajia, and it's not the first day we met. You are all familiar with this house Well..."

Wang Shanshan smiled and said, "Yes, yes. It's just that these two days will disturb your two-person world, ha!"

"It's alright, the room is big, and it's good to have a lot of people. It will increase some popularity." Li Qingqing next to Hu Lai smiled.

Wang Shanshan looked at Hu Lai and Li Qingqing who were standing side by side, shook her head and sighed, "I really envy you..."

"Envy? Why?" Li Qingqing asked.

"Because it's not easy. The two of you went from high school to the stage of the Golden Globes, along the way, always together... It's like a fairy tale. How many people can do it in reality?"

Hu Lai and Li Qingqing looked at each other, the latter smiled and said to Wang Shanshan: "It's really not easy, we almost lost contact. When I left Dongchuan Middle School to play professional football, I didn't have any contact with him at all. way, he doesn't have mine either."

"Ah?" Wang Shanshan stared, "And what about this? Then how did you get in touch in the end?"

"Didn't he have a secret training base? He put a football in the grass and I wrote my phone number on it before I left..."

"Hey, that's a good idea!" Wang Shanshan clapped her hands and exclaimed.

"As a result, this idiot didn't remember to go to his training base to find that football until he was about to leave school in his second year of high school." Li Qingqing gave Hu Lai a white look beside him.

Hu Lai explained: "It's mainly because I joined the school team, so I don't have to go to the secret base anymore..."

"Then you didn't think about me?"

"I think about it, but I think about it, I want to kill me... You don't know, after you left, I felt empty in my heart. But I didn't know why at the time, and later I found out... It was because of I'm missing a person in my daily routine!"

Li Qingqing shuddered: "Hu Lai, you are so numb!"

Wang Shanshan laughed when she saw Hu Lai and Li Qingqing flirting. Then she suddenly thought that, in fact, the documentary can already start like this.

So she turned around and saw the photographer Xiao Zhang holding the camera, pointing the camera here, and making an "ok" gesture to Wang Shanshan.

Wang Shanshan knew that this scene had already been filmed by Xiao Zhang.

As expected of an old partner, he really understands me!

※※※

Madrid Pirates first team players warm up after training on the field.

This part of the training is in charge of the fitness coaching staff, and the head coach Parrotti no longer has to keep an eye on it.

So he was interviewed by Chinese CCTV female reporter Wang Shanshan on the sidelines.

"Hu trained very well today... No, it should be said that he has been in good training since returning to the team. It can be seen that he enjoyed a very wonderful vacation in China, and the fatigue of a season has disappeared..."

Parrotti did not forget to compliment China, emphasizing that the holidays enjoyed in China were wonderful and fatigue disappeared.

Wang Shanshan asked him, "Mr. Parrotti, do you think Hu Lai can win the Golden Globe?"

Parrotti answered very rigorously: "I am not a Ballon d'Or judge, so I can't answer you whether he can win the Ballon d'Or. But I'm 100% sure that he definitely deserves this honor."

"Then what kind of performance do you think he can show in the new season?"

Parrotti is still cautious: "I believe he will still perform well, but whether he can still score as crazy as last season, I can't say. I won't think about it. For me, an ordinary Hu also He is already a good enough Hu, as long as he plays normally, he will be the world's top player."

Hearing such an answer, Wang Shanshan sighed in her heart:

Parrotti is indeed a "good man"! It's completely thinking about Hu Lai and decompressing him.

Although what Parrotti said is actually true...

A normal performance Hu Lai is already the world's top.

Hu Lai last season was completely out of this planet.

This season's pre-season training, after Hu Lai returned to Madrid, he first performed physical training in Madrid, and then followed the team to the United States at the end of July to participate in the International Champions Cup.

This is the first time he has fully participated in the pre-season training from start to finish since he joined the Madrid Pirates...

When he joined in the first season, it was already the end of July and he missed the team's physical training.

In the second season, he represented the Chinese Olympic team in the Olympic Games. When he returned to the team, he had played a round in the league.

This time, he finally stopped missing the team's pre-season training, especially the important physical reserve part - but in the first two seasons, although he missed the club's physical training phase, he did not show physical strength during the season The lack of support seems to prove that there is no problem with his physical fitness.

In the three International Champions Cup games, Hu Lai started twice and came off the bench once. Although he did not play the full game, he scored three goals in total, averaging one goal per game, which still showed his good competitive state.

However, the Madrid Pirates did not win the championship with Hu Lai's three goals.

They have one win, one draw and one loss in their three International Champions Cup matches. In the first 2-0 victory over Insubre, Hu Lai scored a goal. The second game lost 1:3 to Manchester Athletic, Hu Lai came off the bench and scored the only goal for the Pirates. The third game 2:2 draw with Paris Herger, Hu Lai started and scored another goal.

In these three International Champions Cups, Parrotti has made some adjustments to the team's lineup and tactics. The formation and tactics of each game are different, which may be the reason for the poor performance of the Madrid Pirates in the International Champions Cup. one of the reasons.

Everyone is very concerned about the performance of the Madrid Pirates in the pre-season warm-up match, because it is related to the performance of the Pirates in the new season.

They have become the "Triple Crown Kings", and they will definitely become the target of public criticism. Whether it is Spain's opponents or European giants, they all want to bring them down.

So can Parrotti lead the Madrid Pirates through the storm?

Or will the coach, who won the triple crown for the team, be dismissed in the middle of the season?

By the way, the head coach of the King of Madrid, Jimmy Roive, has been sacked by the club.

The King of Madrid, who has been coaching since 2023, has won two Champions League titles, three La Liga titles, one King's Cup, two Spanish Super Cups, two European Super Cups and two Club World Cups in six years. The meritorious marshals who created a dynasty era can only resign before the contract expires.

The reason is, of course, that there was no harvest last season, and someone must be responsible.

The head coach is this "responsible person".

Although the King of Madrid reached the Champions League final last season, the league also won the runner-up, with more than one hundred points. For other teams, this is a good result that could not be better. But at King, it was a total failure.

So he quit get out of class.

But being able to coach a giant like the King of Madrid for six consecutive seasons~www.readwn.com~ Roive is also very remarkable. Not an ordinary celebrity can do it.

It is easy to fire a coach, but not so easy to hire a coach.

There are not many famous coaches who can be worthy of the king of Madrid, and there is still a gap.

So tossing to August, the final coach of the King of Madrid was Miguel Tavares, the famous Portuguese coach who once coached London Bridge. He also led the Portuguese giants to the Champions League final, but failed to win the championship. ...

Tavares went to the Premier League to coach London Bridge on the basis of his experience leading the Portuguese to the Champions League final. However, his coaching experience at London Bridge was not successful. He only won the English League Cup, neither the Premier League nor the European Championship. He was later replaced by German Marshal Julian Stodd.

After being dismissed from London Bridge, Tavares returned to Portugal to coach Porto, another Portuguese giant, before leading the team to win the Europa League in the 2027-2028 season.

Now he has become the head coach of the King of Madrid.

However, due to his failed experience at London Bridge, many people are not optimistic about Tavares' coaching prospects at the Kings.

The main reason is that he lacks enough honor, and I'm afraid he can't hold back the big guys in the locker room.

But there are supporters of Tavares who point to Ettore Parrotti as an example.

They said that the Italian coach's resume before coaching the Pirates was a hundred times worse than that of Tavares, but what is his achievement now?

Since Ettore Parrotti can lead the Pirates to create a "Triple Crown", why can't Tavares be brilliant in the King of Madrid?

What?

You say pirates have Hulai?

But the king also has Merry!
