[Football] I'm just a defender

Chapter 157 hapter 157

Fran, who fell on the ground, didn't get up immediately. When he sat up, he watched the football fly off the crossbar, his heart fluctuated up and down.But the heart didn't return to its original place, instead it was like the distortion of the whole heart sinking down.

The stadium shot came over, and I don't know if it was a problem with the viewing angle. His eyes darkened and deepened, and seemed to have changed from the honey color that was ridiculed to dark brown.Seeing that the ball was about to be kicked off again, he stood up on the ground. When he looked around subconsciously, he met the frowning Ancelotti on the sidelines. He also caught a glimpse of the assistant coach calling Pepe from the bench.

Fran froze, as if suddenly awakened by the head coach's intention, subconsciously waved at Ancelotti, meaning to ask the head coach not to replace him.After he made the action, he actually wanted to ask himself if he really couldn't kick anymore, but the fact was that no matter what the answer was, he was unwilling to be given up by Ancelotti at this moment.

He also sometimes thinks, if Igor's state declines sharply, should he be willing to be a substitute with a balanced mentality?He has also done countless psychological counseling for himself. It is time for Sergio to show himself when he is older. When trying to force himself with physical fitness, to be honest, Fran only had a momentary realization, and he could even laugh at himself in his heart, thinking that this is probably tit for tat.

But none of this upset him when the coach on the sidelines wanted to replace him.Even if it was due to deliberate waste of physical energy in the first half, is he, Francisco Alvarez, really so bad that he can't even play the entire national derby?

He looked in the direction of Ancelotti, and he wanted to say that he had played for Real Madrid for more than ten years, and he had never stood up and been substituted in a regular game.I don't know if Ancelotti understood Fran's meaning, the Italian sighed and waved his hand to signal Pepe to sit back.

There are so many people paying attention to this national derby. Mourinho closed the notebook that had been spread out and put it aside, leaning on the sofa with his arms folded in front of his chest.In the picture, Fran stood up again, ready to go as if nothing had happened. He remembered that he had joked with Fran that as long as Fran was not injured and needed to be carried off on a stretcher, he would have to wait until the end of the game to start the game.There is also the exaggerated comment on Fran, "The steel and iron frame tailor-made for Real Madrid will push Real Madrid to the sky if it can, and it will be broken if it doesn't work."

At this moment, Mourinho thought, if he was in Ancelotti's position, what would he do in this round of the game?The Portuguese looked at Forlan who was re-entering the next round of offensive and defensive battles. He knew that if it was him, even if he had a dispute with Forlan after the game, he would definitely replace him directly.

On the court, Fran's exhaustion was extremely obvious. He was sweating profusely and his breathing was unstable. It seemed that even the defense began to lose balance.Scattered boos from the Bernabéu were heard from the Barcelona fans, who were ecstatic to find that the sudden decline of the Barça obstacle for many years was particularly obvious.The commentator was criticizing Ancelotti's ability to make substitutions on the spot. At this moment, instead of letting Forlan stay on the court, it is better to replace the energetic players to move the court.

The reporters on the sidelines had different opinions. Another reporter from Marca looked at the silent Arnold Theodore beside him and looked very abrupt, "You should also believe that he can support the whole game, right?" It happened in the stands and around Meilinger who watched the national derby all over the world. In their eyes, he is a giant who resists everything, a perpetual motion machine that runs freely, and a belief that will not admit defeat.

Theodore looked at a certain defensive point that Barcelona focused on breaking through, and at the offensive end of Real Madrid's full firepower, until Ronaldo, who has an excellent sense of the ball today, scored Real Madrid's third goal in the game under repeated bombing. In the Bernabéu Stadium, the score was extended to an absolute advantage of 3-1.

When the goals from the Meilingers were celebrating all over the sky, Ronaldo, who was celebrating at the corner kick, was finally willing to break the silence, and his voice was so hoarse that it was surprising, "I would rather Ancelotti not let Fu Lan is indiscriminate, replace him as soon as possible."

Barcelona on the football field seems to have really implemented Xavi's proposal before the game, Real Madrid and Alvarez, both of them must smash at least one.It seems impossible to overtake the score in the next 20 minutes or so, because Real Madrid's offensive line is currently blowing out.But Barcelona has no chance of shrinking and continues to attack Real Madrid's seemingly shaky defense now.

When Neymar cut inside to avoid Forlan's defense, Ramos, who was defended, intercepted the ball and made a big clearance.Without Neymar's opponent saying anything, Ramos could almost feel Forlan shaking slightly.

Harvey thought to himself, this club is about to win, but Fran, you will finally stop laughing because of this victory.How much have you left behind because of this club? Did you play football for yourself even one day?

Real Madrid got a corner kick opportunity, Modric served from the corner kick, and everyone crowded together in the Barcelona penalty area.The football came out, and there was a turmoil in Barcelona's penalty area. Unfortunately, Pique's header flew to the feet of Javier Mascherano in the header fight. Javier Mascherano immediately made a clearance, and Real Madrid's attack ended.

Forlan did not participate in Real Madrid's corner kick. Standing outside the Barcelona penalty area, he saw Mascherano kick the ball high in the direction of Real Madrid, and turned around to catch up.Real Madrid played too much in the past ten minutes, not only the problem of the offensive line, but even Ramos and Marcelo were crowded in the Barcelona penalty area, which caused Real Madrid's half-court to be almost empty. In the grassland, there are only Forlan who is close to the center circle and Carvajal on the defense line.

Alongside football is Barcelona's well-deserved ace, Lionel Messi.

Fran, who failed to notice Barcelona's kicking intention at the first moment, started a little later than Messi. At this moment, he aimed at the ball and ran. He was one step behind Messi as expected and was controlled by the Argentine.However, Messi's follow-up choice was unexpected. He didn't choose any complicated extraordinary moves. He just kicked the football forward with force, and then accelerated and ran towards the football again.

There is a saying on the football field, "He passed the ball to himself three seconds later", which may refer to this scene on the field at this time.

It seems that there are only two people left in this field for a moment. For football, speed is of course not the only thing.But at this moment, speed is the only thing.

From the time when the two barely walked side by side at the beginning, until Fran was gradually left behind while Messi was striding forward with the ball, the distance between the two became wider and wider visible to the naked eye.

The excellent record since last season has made Meilingers come to the home court to support the home team as much as possible. The Bernabéu stadium only leaves a few hundred seats for Barcelona fans coming from the away game.But for a while at the Bernabeu Stadium, it seemed that only the cheers of the Barcelona fans as Messi ran, while the boos from Real Madrid disappeared little by little.

During this ordinary but unusual running, there seemed to be a clear broken voice in people's ears, and the image that had been held up to the altar by countless people for many years seemed to be shattered in an instant.

The white jersey, which was always so chic and beautiful on his body, seems to have become rustic and ugly.People subconsciously recount the glory of his prime, as well as the vivid memory of the first glimpse of the scene.

Football is a sport that makes it difficult for people to feel old, because countless fresh blood are always running on the green field; football is a sport that makes it easy for people to experience aging, probably because the king of the ball who is regarded as a god , will be dripping with blood from the butcher's knife of time.

Messi is still accelerating, and now there is only Real Madrid defender Carvajal between him and Real Madrid goalkeeper Casillas.He remembered the nightmare of being crushed by Fran's all-round defense in the Clasico in the season when he first entered La Liga, and the scene of Kaka, who came off the bench in the second half, returning to the defense but couldn't catch up.

He ran with the ball wholeheartedly, and an image instantly formed in front of his eyes.The most shining position in the whole picture is the rolling football, and the goal not far away is a gate to a new world.Many people have accused Messi of his severe decline in the second half and the frequent vomiting on the sidelines.But no one thought about these problems at this time, because Messi, who was running wildly, was almost showing the competition between human beings and football.

When Messi faced Carvajal's defense, he scored another exaggerated goal. Although Carvajal had noticed Messi's movements in advance and made countermeasures, he could only act like a The stakes were also surpassed by Messi on the side.

The football keeps flying and Messi keeps going.

But this time it should have been the best in La Liga and even in Europe this round, but it didn't happen. Messi swung his foot towards the goal, but was held up by Casillas with both hands, and the football hit the goal frame and bounced out of the field.There was a moment of silence throughout the Bernabéu stadium.

Casillas has done a good job.

"...Iker Casillas has made a meritorious service!" The commentator should have been lucky, but he said it weakly.

Casillas looked down at his hands, he could feel his hands shaking uncontrollably after this round of defense.But this is not the focus of his attention at this moment. Casillas's gaze crosses Messi who is holding his head in pain for this miss in the penalty area, and crosses Carvajal who is full of apology when he looks at him, and finally stops at Fran's body.

Fran standing there finally had an undisguised blankness on his face. He had expected it when the head coach made the layout, but the reality was much crueler than he expected.Seeing that Messi's attack was terminated, Fran felt that all the strength in his body was pulled away. The next second he relaxed, the pain of right thigh cramps surged up. It felt like his right leg was blocked, and he couldn't even bend his knee. Uncontrollably fell to the ground.

Casillas watched him suddenly hit the ground, he could see the pain on his face, and he didn't know where the pain came from.He can no longer tell whether today's Fran is like yesterday's sluggish self, or tomorrow's self will have today's Fran's sluggish state.He just never had a moment when he realized a fact so clearly.

He has always thought that people get old slowly, but it is not true, people probably get old in an instant.

Fran, who fell to the ground, raised his head and looked at the night sky of the Bernabéu Stadium without focus. Perhaps according to his previous character, he gritted his teeth and continued to carry on, but this time when the ball was dead, he looked in the direction of Ancelotti. Compared with a substitution gesture.

Ancelotti was taken aback when he saw his gesture, and after a pause for a few seconds, he waved behind him, signaling that Pepe was ready to appear.

The accompanying team doctor saw that Fran had a thigh cramp instead of a calf cramp, so he planned to take a stretcher to the field to take him down.Especially if the thigh cramps caused by excessive exercise are not handled properly, it is very easy to cause muscle strain.

The referee, the coaches and players of both sides, the fans in the Bernabéu stadium and the broadcast camera, all of them all focused on Forlan.After Fran tried to stand up but failed, he stared blankly at the sky, waiting for the rescue of the team doctor.

People's hearts are soft at the beginning, and then in the process of growing up, they will become cold and unreasonable for various reasons. Putting on armor, drawing horizontal trenches, loading shells, and building fortresses, it seems to be Isolate yourself into an impenetrable city.

But one day people's hearts will change after all, one day we will be willing to take off our armor, fill up horizontal ditches, wet shells, tear down fortresses, and tear down everything for self-protection for someone or something , Let the cold hard heart become soft again.

Then fall flat.

Francisco Alvarez.

He is not afraid of slander, and he has long been used to injuries, but what he fears most is the collapse of his beliefs, and he dare not even think about it.

In the camera, the light in his eyes dimmed a little after he was carried on the stretcher. He was completely out of focus, and his precarious figure was somewhat bent.It was rare for him to hide his expression, it was broken, indeed it was broken, and his confidence and belief that had been shattered by reality were all spread out on his face, as if it would collapse if he touched it.

Raul is the banner of Real Madrid, Guti is the complex of Real Madrid, Casillas is the support of Real Madrid, he is the blood and backbone of Real Madrid.People always think that Francisco Alvarez will not break even if he is a dead waist, and his vision is bright from beginning to end.But they're all old, really old.

Fran, who was carried off the field, finally sat on the bench, and Isco's attempts to talk to him were perfunctory.He just watched everything that happened on the football field, watching Pepe's solid defense after he came on the field, watching the midfielder regrouping again, and watching Bale blast into the fourth place belonging to Real Madrid in this game. goal.

In the midst of the celebration, Fran lowered his head and gently covered his eyes. His voice was so hoarse and soft that only he could hear, "I'm so sad."

He was heartbroken.

Watching everything that happened in the game, Mourinho finally couldn't hold back and raised his hand to turn off the TV screen.He leaned back on the sofa, as if he was exhausted after coaching a key battle, he raised his hand to cover his forehead and muttered for a while.

"...folded."

The author has something to say: ah, the mood is complicated...

I feel so complicated...
