Chapter 365 Punishment for Pepe (fourth more)
The Copa del Rey final is over, but the storm the match has created is only just hanging up.

Real Madrid defeated Athletic Bilbao and won the championship is a trivial matter, and the senior management of Athletic Bilbao agreed with Caporus's resignation on the second day after the game was a trivial matter.

The big thing that the reporters really care about is the score of this game, 8:2. Everyone knows Real Madrid's offensive ability, but no one thought that it would be so strong.

Real Madrid scored eight goals in a single game. It is not that Real Madrid has never done it. Last season, in the No.20 league round, they swept the newly promoted Valladolid 8:0 at home.

But Athletic Bilbao is not Valladolid, and this game is not an ordinary game, this is the final.Although the gold content of the Copa del Rey is not as high as that of the league, it is the honor second only to the league championship in La Liga.The opponent is Athletic Bilbao, a veteran team that has not won a championship for decades and is extremely hungry.

You must know that two months ago, Real Madrid lost to Athletic Bilbao 4:2 in an away game.No matter how bad the strength of the two teams is, it is impossible to be that bad.

Real Madrid was able to sweep Valladolid with eight goals last season because the team's state was at its peak and its offensive ability was the best in Europe.And this season, after losing Robinho, Real Madrid's offense has obviously declined, even if Gago's position is premised.

这个赛季进球最多的是巴塞罗那，联赛进球数已经达到惊人的101球，距离皇马在89/90赛季107球的纪录只有6球的差距。而本赛季各项赛事巴萨进球数也达到146球，超越了历史最高纪录143球。

Even with such a sharp offensive ability of Barcelona this season, the highest single game is only six goals of the opponent, and Real Madrid actually blasted the opponent's goal eight times in the final, which is destined to be difficult.

And most importantly, Real Madrid scored eight goals with one less player. Pepe lost control in the opening half an hour and gave the opponent two consecutive penalty kicks, and even got himself sent off with a red card.

It was under such a bad situation that Real Madrid scored eight goals in a row and collapsed Athletic Bilbao.

Speaking of this, the reporters' pens moved more diligently, and the key points came out, which is also the most attractive part of this game.

Pepe's two fouls!
Since coming to Real Madrid, the Portuguese iron guard has been the main force of Real Madrid's defense. His speed, turning, technique, and body have improved Real Madrid's defense by two levels.But it is this top central defender whose only weakness is that he loses control of his mind from time to time.

In modern football where Vieira, Keane and other villains have retired, Pepe's notoriety is already the loudest in the entire football world, and the two fouls in this game made him sit on the "No. the throne of a villain.

Real Madrid won the championship, of course Barcelona is not happy, this championship should have been theirs.If Messi hadn't kicked the penalty away in the semi-finals, they would have entered the final.As long as they reach the final, how can someone like Bilbao stop them from winning the championship.

So after the Copa del Rey final this time, "World Sports Daily" and "Daily Sports Daily" just briefly mentioned the fact that Real Madrid won the championship, and spent all their pen and ink on exaggerating Pepe's evil deeds.

"In the Copa del Rey final that ended yesterday, Real Madrid player Pepe showed his kung fu to the world. He got rid of three opposing players by himself, and according to the current hospital examination, the three of them are likely to have to recuperate for a long time. The Portuguese alone crippled the opponent's midfield core, defense core, and already an excellent central defender. His sacrifice allowed Real Madrid to complete a streak against a semi-disabled team in the next period of time. The 'feat' of hitting eight balls."

"I'm very disappointed. Real Madrid has always presented the image of a gentleman. Even if their players are tough guys, they will not have this kind of butcher-style brutality. The fact that the Portuguese can come to Real Madrid is an insult to Real Madrid and an insult to the Bernabeu. , is also a defilement of that pure white jersey!"

"The Portuguese who committed such behavior will be suspended for at least ten games, even if it is twenty games. The La Liga Disciplinary Committee will make a penalty today. Let us wait and see what punishment the Portuguese will receive."

"However, in order for Real Madrid to maintain their good image, it is best to sell the Portuguese at the end of the season. As long as he is a Real Madrid player, he will continue to tarnish that pure white jersey. Noble white should not be This one is not a fully evolved 'savage' and downgraded!"

This report by "World Sports Daily" triggered a discussion on this matter. The media all over the world are on their side this time. Pepe's behavior is indeed a violation of sportsmanship.

As the mouthpieces of Real Madrid, "Aspen" and "Marca" also rarely defended Pepe, but they still have to report on the Copa del Rey match.

It's just that the content of their report is just different from that of "World Sports Daily". They just brushed off Pepe's foul and focused on Real Madrid winning the championship.The most important thing is the praise for Gago. In that final, the Argentine king's two goals and three assists made everyone astonished.

But doing so has greatly reduced the sales of the two newspapers. There is no way, fans like to read novelty things.Gago's excellent scoring performance can be seen in almost every game, and they are tired of it. Now they want to see something different.

And Pepe's atrocities just provided this point. At this moment, it seemed that the whole world was on the opposite side of Real Madrid.

If this matter is not handled properly, it will be a great harm to Real Madrid.

The president of Athletic Bilbao, Fernando Marco, as the head of the victims, naturally has to stand up and condemn.

"He shouldn't be on the pitch and has been banned for life!"

Of course, everyone knows that he is confused, and Pepe's behavior is far from a lifetime ban.Being able to suspend him for more than a dozen games is the best result.

When the outside media condemned Pepe, Real Madrid's response was not slow. After overnight discussions, the club's top management immediately came up with the best way.Although Calderon is not good, but as the giants with the deepest background in football today, those who can achieve the top position of Real Madrid have top-notch brains.

They had already anticipated this situation, so at nine o'clock the next morning, a press conference was held, and the protagonist was naturally Pepe.

In the face of hundreds of reporters, Pepe tried to squeeze out an expression of repentance on his fierce face. First of all, he apologized for his behavior yesterday!
"I would like to apologize to all the fans, especially to Valencia and his family. You know I am not that kind of person. He hit me and the referee didn't call the foul. I was confused at that time, The moment I got the foul I thought it was over. It all happened in the blink of an eye, and I had a split-second short-circuit."

"As for Amorebieta's injury, it was completely an accident. I jumped up early to get the ball out, but it fell off the top. I didn't expect him to jump up at that time and hit my elbow. On. And Martinez too, I was scared when I saw him come and beat me, in order to defend myself, I could only make some aggressive moves.”

"Say a thousand words and ten thousand, I was wrong, I should not have done such a thing, the club has punished me internally, I have no complaints, no matter what punishment the disciplinary committee makes to me, I will abide by it. I Guaranteed, this is my last time, and this will never happen in the future!"

At the press conference, Pepe made the most profound review to the media all over the world with a sincere face.

As for how much sincerity there was in these words, no one cared. The reporters only needed to get the news.And Real Madrid only needs to make this statement, which means that the club also rejects this kind of stadium violence.

Of course, the activities still have to be carried out, but Pepe cannot be suspended for too long. The current Real Madrid really can't do without him.

In La Liga, Real Madrid's potential power is said to be second, but no one really dares to say first!

The chairman of the disciplinary committee, Alfredo Flores, is an out-and-out Real Madrid fan.Although at this critical time, Real Madrid certainly couldn't blatantly approach him, but through his relatives and friends, he no longer knows how many good words have been sent to him.

At the same time, Real Madrid's sympathy team also arrived at Athletic Bilbao. They promised various benefits from both the club and the players.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the La Liga Disciplinary Committee made a penalty, and made the following penalties for Real Madrid defender Coppel Lavillan Lima Ferreira (Pepe's name).

"In La Liga, apart from the red card suspension, Valencia was suspended for four games for kicking and falling to the ground, four games for slapping Martinez, and one game for insulting the referee. Start from the next game , a total of ten games Real Madrid defender Koppel Lavillan Lima Ferreira was unable to play."

Regarding this penalty, Real Madrid has no intention of appealing at all, and expressed through the official website that they agree with the decision of the Disciplinary Committee with both hands and feet.

The media in Catalonia is generally dissatisfied.

"Pepe's violent kick was only suspended for 4 games. It is too outrageous and conniving. Even if this behavior is suspended for [-] games, it is not an exaggeration. The disciplinary committee is too partial to Real Madrid players. If this continues, La Liga will have no Fair enough!"

However, since the penalty has been issued, and Real Madrid has no objections, there is absolutely no reason to modify it.And the ten-match suspension is already considered a serious penalty!
