Chinese players in Europe

Chapter 548 Depressed Iker Casillas
But for some players in the Spurs squad, the Bernabéu means something else.

Could it be that he cast his gaze not far away, where Van der Vaart was looking around the stadium in a daze.His expression was very complicated, and his eyes were a little hesitant, obviously evoking some memories.He was so engaged that he didn't even notice Lennon yelling at him.

Van der Vaart's trip to Real Madrid seemed like a dream come true.When he joined Real Madrid on a free transfer from Hamburg, he wanted to elevate his career to a new level. In fact, his performance was indeed fantastic at the beginning, and he staged a hat-trick in his first start. Assists and goals sprung up as frequently as mushrooms after a rain, but then it was a tragedy. Frequent injuries made Van der Vaart gradually unable to find his place in the team, the main force, the substitute, the second substitute, and even Can only play in the reserve team... After only half a season, Van der Vaart lost his sense of presence in the Real Madrid team. In the following two years, he almost became a transparent person.If van der Vaart continues to be depressed like this, maybe his career may end early, but fortunately, he was sold by Real Madrid for 800 million to Tottenham Hotspur, who needed a handsome midfielder, so he started He was reborn from the ashes.

What does Real Madrid mean to him?Does he have the slightest sense of belonging to this team?No one knows.Even if Mofei and him are good friends, I haven't seen him mention his years in Real Madrid. Although he has a good relationship with Beckham, it is just a personal friendship and has nothing to do with Real Madrid.

Has he ever been attached to this stadium?Have you ever regretted moving to Real Madrid?And when he returned to the Bernabeu recently, when he stood on the court and fought against his former teammates, what kind of mood would he feel?

Could it be that he didn't know, he just looked at Van der Vaart's face and lost his mind, then slowly let out a breath, and turned his eyes to the other side, who was constantly smiling and greeting the Real Madrid players Beckham.

Compared with van der Vaart, who doesn't know his emotions, Beckham is much more chic and comfortable.Beckham, who transferred in the middle of this season, had a very pleasant four seasons in Real Madrid. When he left Real Madrid, he was different from other players who left Real Madrid for one reason or another. He succeeded with satisfaction and glory He retired, and Real Madrid also sent gratitude and blessings for his departure.

This time back to his hometown, Beckham should be welcomed by the fans in the stands.And the fact is indeed the case, when Beckham appeared in the stadium, not only the fans applauded thunderously, but the old friends of Real Madrid on the field also came forward to hug and talk with him.

"Raphael..."

Mo Fei sighed again, then walked to Van der Vaart, hugged his shoulders, and called softly.At this time, Mo Fei didn't know whether Van der Vaart needed comfort, but he felt that he had to do something, whether as the captain or as a friend.

"Uh...Mo?"

Van der Vaart felt that someone was hugging him, and finally recovered from his absence, but his face was obviously stunned and confused, which made him feel as pale and weak as if he had just recovered from a serious illness.

"This is a great stadium, and it is also a great team." Murphy nodded.In fact, there is still one sentence he didn't say, "You who played here are equally great", he believes that he doesn't need to explain, Van der Vaart should understand what he means.

"Thank you, Mo... I'm fine... I just have some feelings..." Van der Vaart stared at Mo Fei, then looked from the east to the west, took another deep look at the stands in all directions, and murmured : "I remember when I stepped on this turf for the first time, Gonzalez told me that there was a square not far from the Bernabéu Stadium, where there was a statue of the goddess of harvest, that is the mother of the team, and also Their mother, she watched her child quietly with eyes full of hope and expectation, and her child would tie a Real Madrid scarf on her at the end of each season. A scarf represents a champion. The child's return to the mother, the child is telling the mother, your child will always keep the honor by your side..."

"...Every player has a dream in his heart, and I am no exception. I don't know what I thought at the time, anyway, I think Gonzalez is right, playing here is an honor , and this kind of glory is what we must wait for with our lives. In order to be able to tie a scarf for my mother at the end of the season, I fought hard, I ran hard, and I tried hard to keep the victory in this stadium. Leave it to our mothers..."

"But……"

When Van der Vaart said this, he didn't continue talking.Like a wounded child, he suddenly burst into tears and rushed into Mo Fei's arms.

Mo Fei was also stunned.He never thought that Van der Vaart would have such deep feelings for Real Madrid.He didn't work here for a long time, only three short years, and it was three years of more pain than happiness. Could it be that Van der Vaart was full of resentment towards this place, but now, he suddenly discovered that the man in front of him In the hearts of his teammates, Real Madrid always seems to have an important position that cannot be underestimated for him...

Sure enough, Van der Vaart's voice suddenly came from Mo Fei's arms again——

"I used to think that I would hate this place! I used to think that this place would hate this place! There are a few three years in a player's life, and he can experience a few three years of depression..."

"But when I came here, I found...I love it! Yes, I don't regret it! I don't regret coming here! This is the most precious and cherishable memory in my playing career!"

Suddenly, Van der Vaart broke away from Mo Fei's embrace, and smiled indifferently at Mo Fei. His slender golden bangs were in a mess and fluttered with the wind. He made a movement of putting his hand to his ear and listening: "Listen, here The singing is still so familiar, and it still makes people feel so warm. Mo, I seem to have heard my mother's call, and she seems to be telling me, welcome back, child..."

Looking at Van der Vaart with an affectionate face, Mo Fei felt a sour feeling in his heart. Raul, Metzelder, Beckham, Huntelaar... the faces of former Real Madrid players he knew kept flashing in his eyes. Facing one by one in front of him, he found that among those who left, some were happy and some were sad, but they were very similar in one thing, that is, their eyes showed undisguised nostalgia and love for this stadium.

"It's a magical stadium."

There was a voice from a distance, Mo Fei looked up, and Beckham came over, looked at him, and looked at Van der Vaart who lost his mind again.

"Here, you will be willing to fight to the last moment of your life for her glory. Even if you are abandoned, you will have no complaints!"

Mo Fei stared blankly at Beckham, wanting to say something, but didn't know where to start.He also felt the unusualness of this stadium. As soon as he stepped here, he wanted to fight more than ever. Did he want to prove his excellence in front of the king Real Madrid?
Why do you want to prove your excellence to her?
Could it be that he was taken aback by his own thought, and then shook his head with a wry smile. It seems that Real Madrid's magic power to lure professional players is really extraordinary. I don't know how many players in the world can resist Real Madrid. After all, only the best players can stand on the stage here...

"Although I have already left here, I think my mother still hopes to see that I am still outstanding and will not let her down..."

Vaguely, Van der Vaart's voice came from Mo Fei's ears again. He showed a bright smile in the direction of Harvest Goddess Square, then nodded to Mo Fei and Beckham, and slowly started the warm-up activities.

Mo Fei and Beckham looked at each other, seeing surprise in each other's eyes. They could feel that Van der Vaart was like a fiery rock at this moment, exuding a fierce fighting spirit from all over his body.

"Rafa (Van der Vaart's nickname). Good luck."

Mo Fei took a deep look at Van der Vaart, turned around and started his warm-up.

Playing at the Bernabeu is the first time for Tottenham Hotspur.Watching a game at the Bernabéu is also the first time for Tottenham fans who have followed the team from afar.

Perhaps more than a decade ago or even last season, someone told Tottenham fans that they could go to Real Madrid's home stadium, the Bernabéu, to play and watch the game. They would definitely think that the other party was talking in their dreams.But now, this scene, which was originally thought to only appear in a dream, has become a reality. They are about to compete with Real Madrid for the ticket to the Champions League semi-finals, which makes all the fans feel a sigh and pride.

No way, compared to the famous Real Madrid, the honor Tottenham Hotspur once won is nothing at all, and they are not even qualified to mention it.To use an analogy, Real Madrid is a high-ranking emperor, and Tottenham can barely be considered a middle-class even if they are not civilians. There is really no comparison.

Many Tottenham fans couldn't help but gasp in amazement when they saw the towering and gorgeous Bernabéu stadium's outer wall. They took out their digital cameras one after another and took a group photo in front of the stadium.

"I really didn't expect that I would have the opportunity to go to the stadiums of so many famous European clubs in my life. Ha, this place looks much more spectacular than White Hart Lane!" A Tottenham fan looked at the Bernabeu on the digital camera screen. Wall, sighs.

"Real Madrid is the best team in the last century, so it is naturally different. But I think White Hart Lane is better, ha, I just like it there! I feel comfortable watching the game there!"

"Actually, I don't think Real Madrid is great now. I think we have a chance to get points from here. Tottenham's strength is not bad!"

"My opinion is different from yours. Now we are the best team in Europe, with the most goals and the strongest offensive firepower. Ha, the opponent will tremble with fright when they hear our name! Ha, who Can stop Tottenham Hotspur? We can definitely win the game here!"

"...mate, you're right! Of course we'll win the first leg away, and we'll win the second leg back at White Hart Lane! Ha, think of the team's unprecedented Champions League semi-final, I felt as if a fire was burning all over my body..."

"Ha ha……"

There were less than 2000 Tottenham fans who followed the team to Madrid, but with the addition of the neutral fans and some Chinese fans attracted by stars such as Murphy and van der Vaart, the number of fans who supported Tottenham reached more than 3000.Of course, compared to the more than 8 home fans, the number of visiting team fans can only be described as a drop in the ocean. They seem so small in the huge cheers and singing voices created by Real Madrid fans, but they also have their own to cheer for the team. The way of cheering, they are always breaking down and singing loudly. Although their limelight is covered up now, as long as Tottenham play well, they believe that they will be able to let the players on the field hear their voices and let the lads We know the fans are with them!
