After the game, it was late at night, and the Spanish players had to wait until the next day to return.

That night, Abelardo did not restrict everyone's travel.

He just told them to gather at the hotel entrance at 10 am the next day.

Then, he called a few old friends to drink and brag. Don't say, there are really a lot of things to brag about this season. As a fire-fighting coach, he led the team to get out of the relegation zone, and the King's Cup reached the finals, and the Europa League half-stepped into the finals.

This is the most glorious time since he coached!

Roca, Dadel, Wu Lei, James Luo and others went to the bar to celebrate. Chen Qi wanted to join them, but his father, mother, and undisclosed girlfriend came.

There were two strange men traveling with them.

They found a quiet place and started chatting.

"Ahem."

The slightly older man spoke up, first asking in unauthentic English, "Hello, Chen, nice to meet you. I speak English, do you understand?"

"Of course."

Chen Qi nodded and said with a smile, "I can understand Croatian too, thanks to my mother, who is also a Croatian like you. She taught me some before, and then I learned a little myself."

Dalich laughed, "Aha, this is not just learning a little, your Croatian is very fluent."

"Thank you for your affirmation."

"You know I'm Croatian, it seems you already know my identity."

"Yes, Mr. Zlatko, I often see you on TV, today I saw you in person."

"Then I'll just say it straight?"

"Please go ahead?"

"Come on! Join the Croatian national team! The current national team needs talents like you... Don't worry about your nationality, I know you don't have a record of appearances in the adult national team, so you can choose ours!"

"Well..."

Chen Qi was silent and didn't speak.

Edson asked with a smile: "Chen, do you have any concerns? Or any conditions? You can tell us and we will discuss it together."

Chen Qi did not reply, but fell into deep thought.

When meeting Lao Chen and Michelle Lin, the two recounted what happened today, including the subsequent agreement to meet at the exit of the stadium and a series of talks.

After a long time, Chen Qi responded: "Mr. Zlatkot, thank you very much for your invitation. I am also very honored to have the opportunity to play for Croatia. It's just that my mind is a little confused now... Can you give me some time to think seriously?"

Dalich nodded, "Of course no problem, but I need you to give me a deadline. You know, every position in the national team is precious, and I can't keep it empty!"

Chen Qi scratched his head, "I understand, I will give you an answer after my game this season. I still want to focus on the game. You know, every game we play next is crucial!"

"Okay."

"Then we'll leave today."

"Wait for your reply."

Dalich waved his hand and left with Edison.

The young Chen Qi is very capable and talented. They are willing to give him some time to think seriously.

I just hope that young people can make decisions that are beneficial to their careers.

After seeing the two off, Wang Tiejun called and said frankly, "Xiao Qi, you can't agree to join the Croatian national team. There are countless fans in the country who are looking forward to you and Wu Lei saving the national football team. Your other relatives are also looking forward to it..."

"Uncle Wang."

"I'm tired today."

"What's the matter? After the season is over."

"Let's talk about it later."

Beep beep! After hanging up the phone, Chen Qi turned around and hugged his parents who came to Manchester from afar.

Softly said: "Next time, you don't have to accompany me. I'm grown up... You can rest assured and enjoy your life!"

Michelin patted her son's back with relief and smiled: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself!"

Chen Jianguo let out a long breath and said solemnly: "Son, we still say the same thing. No matter what decision you make, we support you!"

"And me!"

Molina spoke sweetly.

Chen Qi nodded heavily, and after sending his parents back to the hotel, he used the excuse of meeting up with his teammates at the bar.

As a result, he turned around and walked into Molina's hotel.

.

That night, Molina felt that the man behind her was particularly rough, as if he was venting the hidden pressure in his heart.

It was just hard for her, she was in pain and happy, howling all night.

.......

10 days later, cheers came from the El Prat Stadium.

Because the team ushered in the second leg of the Europa League semi-final with Manchester United.

Before that, the Spaniard had won two rounds of the league, 3-0 shutout Eibar in the 35th round, and 1-0 victory over Valencia in the 36th round.

Chen Qi played as a substitute and only scored 1 goal!

Helped the team accumulate 42 league points!

Ranked 14th in the league!

Successfully retained the league in advance!

And this is the main reason for the cheers of the fans on the scene.

The relegation task is completed, and the Spaniards, who have no worries, can finally let go and fight Manchester United, who came to the away game!

The word "fighting" is a proverb!

7 minutes into the game, Chen Qi's dribbling breakthrough on the wing created a huge threat.

Fred blocked the Spaniard's attack at the cost of a yellow card.

But this move also exacerbated the conflict between the two teams.

In the 17th minute of the game, Chen Qi and Roca's double-teaming retaliated, causing the Brazilian midfielder to lie on the ground and wail in pain!

This time, Chen Qi also got a yellow card!

Because he fouled first!

But the young No. 18 player didn't care, as long as he got rid of the bad breath in his heart!

With these two conflicts as a prelude, the players on both sides moved more and more in the subsequent pressing and fighting.

In just 45 minutes, a total of 7 yellow cards appeared, which can be said to be fouls flying all over the sky, and the yellow cards chasing on the ground, the referee on duty was also very headache...
