Chapter 40 Madrid Derby (Part [-])
Two hours before the game, as soon as Capello's main roster was announced, bookmakers all over the world immediately lowered their winning percentage from 1.35 to 2.31.

But Gago didn't know about it, he is now familiar with the lawn with the Real Madrid players at the Atletico Madrid stadium.In this game, Capello specifically ordered that injuries are not allowed, and the formation should be postponed appropriately, focusing on stability.

This is easy to understand. During the derby, it is easy to lose control of reason.If the opponent's player's blood rushes to his brain all of a sudden and directly cripples you, although he can recover the field after the game, it may ruin his career.The value of it still needs to be carefully weighed. Those who can play in Real Madrid are all worth tens of millions of stars. If any of them is injured, the player's loss is considered small. I am afraid that the impression that the team will collapse and there will be no results in the end.

Gago saw Aguero during the warm-up. Although this kid is not tall, he is quite eye-catching.After a few fancy moves, many fans present screamed.

"Sergio, don't you know that flashy people will never become top stars?"

Gago pretended to be 13 and came to Aguero's side and said.

"I think this is a very simple gesture, don't you see it?"

Aguero squinted at Gago. At this time, Gago realized that although he was not tall, he was still a little taller than Aguero.This made him very happy.It seems that the Argentine players of this generation are quite short. Messi, Aguero, Gago, Tevez, Mascherano, are all famous short men in football.

"Hmph, the waiting game has started, if you have the ability, you can use these simple movements to score a goal in front of me."

"Sorry, I played the midfielder in this game."

Aguero curled his lips and said, but Gago could still hear the grievance in his heart.With Torres at Atletico Madrid, he will never be the core.

"Boy, your own strength is the most important thing."

Gago went back to his locker room after saying this.

"Okay, guys, I don't need to talk about the meaning of this game. Today we are facing a rival in the same city who claims that as long as we beat us, even if we are relegated. There is only one thing you need to do now, play , and go beat them."

Capello's words are always so concise and easy to understand.The tactics that should be arranged have been rehearsed several times before coming here, and now the only thing that can be seen is the execution ability of the players on the field.

"I can accept losing to any other team in a season, but I will never accept losing to Atletico Madrid and Barcelona!"

Raul put on his captain's armband and said something, then took the lead and walked out.

Afterwards, Guti, who was the vice-captain, yelled, stood up, and walked away with his head up.

Next, Gago quickly followed, and the last one was goalkeeper Iker Casillas.

"Viewers and friends, you are welcome to watch COPE TV. Now we are reporting for you the No.20 round of La Liga. Atletico Madrid is playing against Real Madrid at home. This is the focus of this round. If Real Madrid loses this game again If not, I’m afraid even No.4 will not be guaranteed.”

"Hello British viewers, this is BBC Television..."

"Sky TV..."

"CCTV……"

As soon as the players from both sides came out on the field, all the commentators on the field sent the reports of the players on the field to the country with their fastest speech speed. Tens of millions of fans around the world are eagerly waiting for this derby match.Especially in Spain and Argentina.

Raul and Torres stood together in the middle circle, guessing coins under the signal of the referee.

I am afraid that this is also the alternation of the old and new strikers in Spain. Raul was not selected for the national team last year, and Torres is the candidate to replace him.Torres is regarded by people in Spain as Raul's successor. Both of them came from Atletico Madrid's youth training camp, but Raul finally became the banner of Real Madrid, while Torres became the "holy baby" of Atletico Madrid. .

It has to be said that the blond-haired Torres is no worse than Gago in terms of appearance alone.Especially the expressionless faces of him and Raul made a group of rotten girls who like iceberg cool boys scream.

But in the end, Raul was superior and Atletico kicked off first.

Torres was also polite, kicked the ball directly to Aguero, and then rushed towards Real Madrid's defense alone.When Gago saw Torres coming, he didn't intercept him, but greeted Aguero instead.

"Aguero played in the attacking midfielder position in this game, and he happened to face up against Gago in the defensive midfielder. The confrontation between the two Argentine rising stars is also another highlight of this game."

Seeing Gago and Aguero facing each other, the commentator of the Spanish TV station quickly raised his attention, not wanting to miss any details.

"Just show me your 'plain' moves."

Gago came to Aguero and said something with a joke, but Aguero looked cold and snorted.Then he speeded up very bluntly, and passed Gago.

“So easy?”

Just when Aguero was wondering, he suddenly saw a foot stretched out from his side, hooking the ball under his feet. If he took another step, he would lose the ball directly.

Shocked, Aguero forcibly stopped his footsteps, then barely pulled the ball back and controlled it under his feet.

"Pity."

Gago said something very regretful, and then took a step back. The technique just now can only be used once.Aguero was not fooled the first time, and he will definitely increase his concentration next time. Now he can only block his breakthrough head-on.He knew that this kid's skills were no worse than Messi's.

Seeing that he could not break through Gago easily, Aguero pushed the arch of his foot and passed the ball to Lucin.Then he accelerated past Gago, received a pass back from Lu Xin again, and was about to break into the restricted area.
At this moment, a strong force came from behind, and Aguero fell to the ground involuntarily.

"It's really impressive to me. You didn't break through on your own. You almost entered the restricted area."

Gago's surprised words made Aguero grit his teeth with hatred, but he had to admire his foul.He was only two meters away from the penalty area. Such a decisive foul would not result in a card, but it killed a good opening opportunity.

When did Phil have such a good defensive awareness?
The fans on the field booed loudly when they saw Gago fouled, and some people could even vaguely hear cursing.

"Dudu."

Seeing that Gago pushed Aguero behind his back, the referee hurried over and blew his whistle. Gago's confession attitude was very good, and the referee only gave a verbal warning, after all, it was just the beginning.

"Huahuo, you are really welcome."

Standing up, Aguero gritted his teeth and said to Gago.

"Now it's on the court, and it's still a derby match, so it's natural to use everything."

Gago glanced at Aguero and began to line up the wall in the penalty area.Although the card was not dealt just now, the referee still awarded a free kick. This position is very good.

Aguero stood in front of the ball, and Lucin stood next to him, and the two seemed to be discussing who would take the penalty.

In the end, it was Aguero who took the lead and came to the ball, but jumped over it.Lucin behind is the real kicker, hitting the goal with his right foot.Gago jumped up as hard as he could, but the ball flew over his head, looked back, and flew over the bar at the same time.
