Chapter 280 How far is Gago from being a legend? (third change)

The silence was only a blink of an eye, and the next moment, the entire Bernabéu cheered loudly.

"Gago scored twice. Gago didn't feel tired at all. Even though he just returned to the team yesterday and hasn't had a run-in with the players yet, a genius is a genius and cannot be described with common sense!"

"Who can turn the tide, only Fernando!"

"Let us worship it!"

This time, the Real Madrid players who scored the goal rushed up from the backcourt, cheering around Gago amidst the cheers of tens of thousands of fans.At this time, their confidence has completely returned. As long as Gago is on the court, no team can stop the Blancos.

Mata and Silva looked at Gago, who was surrounded by Real Madrid players, and felt waves of frustration.Both of them have been fans of Real Madrid since they were young, and they dreamed of wearing white jerseys, but because Gago and other South American super talents landed in Real Madrid, players like Mata had to leave Castilla to find other teams. own value.

In Valencia they also wore a white jersey, but it was not their favorite jersey.Originally thought that they could let Real Madrid's top management know how big a mistake it was to let them go today, but Gago's playing ruined their hard work.And what's even more frightening is that they have a fear of Gago.

"Am I really as good as him?"

This is the voice of Mata and Silva. They are also two players with high self-esteem. Even if there is a gap compared with Gago, it will not be that big.But today's cruel facts tell them that the two of them are still far behind.

On Valencia's side, they managed to overwhelm Real Madrid in terms of morale by relying on the advantage of numbers, but under Gago's two goals in 5 minutes, they quickly began to collapse.

Being able to persist until now is their greatest strength. Now that Gago is playing, Real Madrid is the real Real Madrid, the invincible white team across Europe.

After the re-kick-off, Valencia's new head coach Anali began to make substitutions. At this time, he did not lack the courage to fight.With the defender Albiol replaced by Morientes, the attitude of mad attack is undoubtedly revealed.

But the end of a defender made it easier for Gago to enter and exit the penalty area. In the No.805 minute, he found Raul with an accurate cross in the penalty area, and the Lord of the Rings easily pushed the goalkeeper to score.

4: 1!

This result made all the fans including Schuster crazy. Gago used two goals and one assist to help the team reverse with three goals in nine minutes in less than 10 minutes. Performance No wonder Real Madrid were able to sweep Europe last season.

Although Morientes helped Valencia score another goal in stoppage time, the final result did not change at all.

Real Madrid defeated Valencia 4:2 at home at the Bernabéu and won the first championship of the new season with a total score of 6:5.

While the Real Madrid players were celebrating crazily on the pitch, Robinho on the bench clenched his fists tightly, further confirming his confidence to leave.In Real Madrid, with Gago, he will never be able to become the core.

……

The next day, the media throughout La Liga were reporting on Gago's god-level performance of two goals and one assist after coming off the bench for 10 minutes.

"I finally understood why Schuster was able to lead the team to win the double championship. Because of the existence of Gago, when the team was in a stalemate, as long as the Argentine was sent on the field, he could rely on his personal ability to bring the championship. .”

Although "Daily Sports Daily" also reported on this incident, its tone was extremely sour.They are envious. Real Madrid used 2000 million euros to pick up a ten-year core for nothing. When did Barcelona have this luck.Although Messi and Gago are known as the "Argentine Twin Stars", so far Messi has not had any honors comparable to Gago.Although he also has a Champions League title, everyone thinks that it was won by Ronaldinho's super performance, and Messi's role is infinitely zero.

But Gago's Champions League trophy was different. It can be said that he alone led Real Madrid to the final.In the final, he defeated Chelsea by scoring twice, even more brave than Kaka last year.

At present, the honors of Gago and Messi are two La Liga champions and one Champions League champion. Although they are equal, in the eyes of fans all over the world, the gold content of their honors is completely different.Messi only relied on Ronaldinho to win these championships, while Gago completed the revival of Real Madrid, a century-old giant, by himself, and his attitude of turning the tide in the Super Cup made his opponents extremely convinced.

Although there are all kinds of mortal enemies in football, as long as you rely on your own strength to defeat your opponents upright, you will be respected.This is respect for the strong, why the opponents line up to welcome after winning the league in advance, in addition to demeanor, it is also a kind of sincerity.

"Gago is moving towards the goal of surpassing Redondo!"

This was the headline of the "Marca" the next day. At the same time, they compared the two princes and told the fans how far is Gago from the legend?

"Redondo has won two league titles, two Champions League titles in Real Madrid as a core. Gago has won two league titles, one Champions League title, and two Super Cup titles in Real Madrid. Just lift up again Big Ears Cup, Gago will be able to surpass his predecessor Redondo in Real Madrid, and with Gago's current performance, it is only a matter of time."

Although this report by "Marca" dissatisfied some Redondo fans, they couldn't find anything wrong with it.If it is other people, they can still say that even if they can equal Redondo in honor, they will definitely not be able to replace Redondo in spirit.

But this statement cannot be applied to Gago, because the two are too similar, the same teacher, the same experience, and the same playing style.With feelings of guilt towards Redondo, Gago, Redondo's personally identified successor, landed at the Bernabeu, countless fans transferred their love for the prince to this Argentine who is extremely similar from inside to outside body, and Gago's outstanding performance also made fans love him more and more deeply.

"I thought he would surpass me after he was 28 years old, but now I know I was wrong. I need to push this time forward by at least four years!"

Regarding the "Marca" report, Redondo, who was reclusive in Madrid, was approached by some uninterested reporters, but the older generation of Argentine princes did not refuse to answer this question. In a brief interview, Gago thoroughly Pushed towards the altar by him!

"Senior brother, you put me under a lot of pressure!"

After the Spanish TV station reported the interview with Redondo, Gago called Redondo with a wry smile on his face.

"Stress is the driving force for growth, Phil, I am very optimistic about you. Try to surpass me, don't regard me as your goal, it will hinder your development."

……

Redondo's words made it impossible for Gago to be clean in the days to come. In the following time, he could only drive at full speed and advance towards the path of surpassing him, because now everyone believed that Gago had the potential to surpass him. Redondo, if he fails to do this, is a "parallel importer" in a sense.

It has to be said that the report of "Marca" troubled the whole Real Madrid, because this was an opportunity for Gago to go to the altar.

The head coach Schuster is under even greater pressure. As the head coach of Real Madrid, you can only lead the team better and better every year.Last season's double crown, how can we get a triple crown throughout the season.

With Gago, the best player in the world, if you can't get the treble, just wait for get out of class.Although Real Madrid's top management did not tell the Germans so clearly, the top management of the entire club revealed such "ambition" intentionally or unintentionally in interviews.

And want to achieve good results in the new season, Gago's state is undoubtedly the most important.Judging from the Super Bowl at home, the Argentine prince is still in hot form this year. The only problem is his physical fitness.You must know that he played almost six games as the main force in the Olympics. Although it is not obvious now, if the physical reserve before the game is not good, it is very likely that he will become a glass man directly.

So after the Super Bowl, while the other players on the team were adapting their tactics, Gago was treated like a national treasure for daily body checks, and at the same time, the extremely difficult physical reserve was greeted to him every day.Fortunately, Gago is very clear about his body, and cooperates with the team doctor's examination and treatment, so that he can gradually adjust himself to the peak under the limit state of his body.

But the time is too short, Gago returned to Madrid on August 23rd, and this year's La Liga started on September [-]st.

But as champions of the Champions League, there is still a Super Cup waiting for them on August NO.30. After the Spanish Super Cup, they will continue to play the European Super Cup. Although the intensive schedule makes all Real Madrid players suffer, they are all willing I even hope that there will be such a dense schedule every year.

But this left less and less time for Gago to adjust his tired body!

Two days before the start of the Super Bowl, Schuster took his men to Morocco.And when he arrived in Morocco, thousands of journalists were already waiting there.

Of course, these reporters are not all waiting for the Super Bowl. To be precise, the Super Bowl is only incidental. Their main purpose is to report the draw ceremony of the UEFA Champions League group stage in 08-09.There are still [-]% of the reporters for the draw ceremony of the UEFA Cup.

The day before the draw, basically the top coaches in Europe were all here, and they gathered together to fight for the Big Ears Cup in the new season.

After a day's rest, Schuster took several of his players to the Champions League draw ceremony. Before that, there was an awards ceremony to summarize last season's Champions League.

If there is no accident, Real Madrid will become the biggest winner!
