On Friday night, some Real Madrid players had a small party with their families.

Everyone met in a seafood restaurant, Raul, Casillas, Ramos, Guti, Reyes, Salgado, Carlos and Qin Xiong, some of them brought their families, some brought their girlfriends, Some even brought their children with them.

It can be regarded as a circle of people with a good relationship in the team who will have a Christmas party in advance. After all, the winter break will enter during the Christmas period, and it is definitely impossible for everyone to come out to party.

And tonight there will be a live broadcast of the draw ceremony for the Champions League knockout round.

In the big private room of the restaurant, everyone had almost eaten, Qin Xiong sat at the table, his right hand was held by Sylvia and placed on her lap, Qin Xiong chatted casually with Ramos and Guti.

The topic shifted to Capello for some reason, Guti complained endlessly, and Ramos also seemed very aggrieved.

"Let me play central defender today, and let me play full back tomorrow. As long as there is a problem in defense, I will always be responsible. I still don't understand what my role is in his heart!"

Ramos' words pretty much encapsulate his current situation at Real Madrid over the past few months.

Qin Xiong comforted: "Maybe the coach thinks you have diversity and can play different roles in different roles, which actually shows that you are more valuable."

Ramos shook his head and said, "What if it was you? Capello asked you to play as a winger today, as a midfielder tomorrow, and as a midfielder the day after tomorrow. Would you like it?"

Qin Xiong laughed dumbfounded, really stopped by Ramos.

Diversity of players exists, but in general it is more dependent on long-term stable role fixation.Only in this way can we find a feeling in one position, and when we get better, we will have better breakthroughs, which is also conducive to future development.

The guard itself is a "high-risk role", because it is too fragile and too easy to collapse.

A striker can go a few games without scoring a goal for a month or two months, but a defender can play poorly if they last a few games.Even a month, two months, then his career is almost over.

What strikers pay attention to is blockbusters, but what defenders need is to be made into steel!

Guti, who gave people a sense of lightness and indifference, said in a disdainful tone: "Don't make sarcastic remarks here. Anyway, you have enough playing time. How about me? Even the time of coming off the bench is getting less and less." , I feel like I was cheated by Capello!"

Qin Xiong seems to have heard more than once from his teammates that he was cheated by Capello.He asked curiously, "What did he lie to you?"

Guti shrugged and said: "To be honest, I planned to transfer and leave in the summer, but Capello talked to me to keep me and promised me that I would be an important member of the team. Then? No more. , and it became what it is now.”

Qin Xiong was thoughtful. He actually wanted to know whether Capello was a frank head coach.

The two head coaches he has experienced in the past, Koeman and Wenger, dare not say that they are absolute gentlemen, at least Qin Xiong is not qualified to judge.But at least be sincere to the players, and there is no problem with clear grievances. I will not make promises easily, but since I say it, I will definitely do it.

Guti's complaints are not over yet.

"I don't even understand Capello. He can be so unfeeling to Cassano, but he can be so tolerant to Emerson. It's the ultimate contradiction. Isn't it?"

Counting, Cassano and Emerson are both Capello's direct descendants, but when both of them were in poor condition.Capello gave Emerson great support and protection, but he seemed to have no tolerance for Cassano.

Sylvia felt sleepy.Leaning his head on Qin Xiong's shoulder, Qin Xiong raised his hand and gently stroked her face.The hand was quickly grabbed by Sylvia, he turned his head and said to Guti: "Maybe the situation is different."

Guti looked puzzled.

Qin Xiong explained: "He gave up Cassano because the team has Ruud van Nistelrooy, Ronaldo, and Robinho, and there are many players for him to choose from. But if he gives up Emerson, although he can count on You, but what about you? Are there other options? No more! So here at Emerson, he dare not give up or hit Emerson easily."

Gu Di thought about it carefully, and it seemed that what Qin Xiong said made sense.

At this moment, Casillas came over, put one hand on Qin Xiong's shoulder, and said, "The drawing of lots has begun."

The men in the private room immediately turned their attention to the TV screen.

The atmosphere also became more serious.

Qin Xiong's mentality is different from before.

I still remember the first time Van der Vaart celebrated his winning the Golden Boy Award at the banquet, he sat alone in the corner and watched the draw ceremony. At that time, he hoped to meet a strong team, the strongest team!

Now?

Touch anyone!

It doesn't matter!

Because Real Madrid only won the second place in the group, and the principle of avoiding the draw in the 1/8 finals, the potential opponents are actually clear at a glance.

Chelsea, Bayern Munich, Liverpool, Manchester United, Arsenal, AC Milan.

The media predicts that Real Madrid will probably face one of the top four in the Premier League. After all, the probability is too great!

6 potential opponents, 4 from the Premier League!

But when the lottery result came out, most of the Real Madrid players in the private room were silent, while Qin Xiong smiled slightly.

AC Milan!

Old rival!

The last confrontation was when he played for Ajax, and the memory is still fresh.

The result of the lottery came out, Qin Xiong saw that Sylvia was almost asleep, he gently pushed her awake, then went to get her coat to put on, he put on his own coat again, turned his head towards the private room The crowd waved goodbye.

"Sylvia and I are leaving first, and you all go home early, good night."

Everyone bid farewell to Qin Xiong one by one.

When he walked out of the restaurant, Qin Xiong was turning around to help Sylvia fasten the buttons of his coat, and Sylvia put half of her body on Qin Xiong's body, hugging his waist, as if subconsciously warming up.

At this time, at least five reporters with cameras rushed to the door. They kept taking pictures and asking questions.

"Real Madrid drew AC Milan, what do you think of the result?"

"Do you have the confidence to beat AC Milan?"

"When you played for Ajax, you played against AC Milan twice but failed to win. Will this become a psychological shadow for you?"

......

The gathering of Real Madrid's stars is naturally impossible to be airtight, and it is normal for reporters to rush to lay an ambush after hearing the news.

But this scene surprised Sylvia, she subconsciously hid in Qin Xiong's arms, then straightened up and stood beside Qin Xiong, holding his arm, as if to make the image of the two together better Some.

Qin Xiong didn't answer any questions raised by the reporters, he took Sylvia directly to the parking space.

But there was a smile on his face.

AC Milan?

Fight then fight! (to be continued~^~)
