Chapter 978 The Withdrawn Benzema

"style?"

"Like?"

"Many years ago, Galacticos only won one European championship and one league championship in its first phase, and I remember that in 2006, if it weren't for the pragmatism brought by Italian coach Capello, Real Madrid would have won another It is impossible to win the league championship. I don’t think there is anything wrong with Mourinho’s current tactics. We are welcoming the championship with victory.”

Dong Fangzhuo also expressed support on the road in front of the media, "I don't know what people are thinking. Is it possible to win a four-goal victory in an ugly way?"

"If you can win four goals every game this way, then that's the best thing."

In addition to questioning Mourinho's voice, the other big news is actually Benzema's.

Before the start of this year's World Cup, Benzema and Franck Ribery exposed the underage prostitution scandal. In the past two days, the court began to issue summonses to them.

If this kind of thing happens to a player, it is no wonder that the player is not interested in playing football. The reason why Benzema did not perform well in the game must be the same.

There is no news about Real Madrid for a day. Today it's yours, tomorrow it's his, and the day after tomorrow it's another person's. Anyway, it is impossible to have Real Madrid without news.

Spanish reporters also asked Dong Fangzhuo about his views on Benzema.

Dong Fangzhuo has a hard time answering.

"This is a private matter. I don't like to pry into others like you reporters. But as a teammate of Benzema, I definitely support him. I heard that the French team is preparing to expel him from the national team. I I feel that if the French team does not have him, the French team will at least drop to a lower level. I heard that they will regret not recruiting Benzema to play in the European Cup qualifiers this time. Benzema is the best forward of the French team, Royal Although Griezmann in society is also good, compared with Benzema, he is still far behind."

Benzema really didn't expect that Dong Fangzhuo would express his support for him in front of the media. In fact, the evidence for his current matter is basically conclusive, and it is just that he needs money to settle it.

But as a celebrity, the negative impact after this kind of thing is exposed is quite large. His reputation is ruined. In a few years, this matter will not fade out of people's sight, and it is impossible for him to return to the national team. middle.

Now even his club teammates seem to be alienating him. Las Diarra, who used to have a good relationship with him, rarely walks with him anymore. The two of them frequented nightclubs in Madrid last season.

Since the start of the new season, the two of them have not eaten or played together.

Maybe it was to draw a clear line with him.

After all, no one wants to get too close to a prostitute.

Similar to his situation is Ribery of Bayern Munich. Both of them have been temporarily excluded from the French national team and have been rejected indefinitely.

Dong Fangzhuo sent warmth in time at this time, of course he was very grateful, it was a timely help.

Dong Fangzhuo is not saying that what he did was not wrong, but that one thing is the same thing. There are some bottom lines that cannot be touched. Benzema deserves to seek death himself, but if this affects the state of the game, then the gain outweighs the loss.

Now Spanish reporters and French reporters are basically running around Benzema. If it hadn't been for the national team match day, Benzema would have dug a hole to hide.

It happened that Dong Fangzhuo did not return to China to participate in the Asian Cup qualifiers. The two people often met at the training ground during these ten days.

When they met on the first day, Benzema took the initiative to walk up to Dong Fangzhuo and say hello to him.

"Thank you."

"ha?"

"Thank you for speaking for me in front of the media. Many people are avoiding me, let alone speaking for me." Maybe it was suppressed for too long, but Benzema suddenly became eloquent and couldn't stop talking.

"It's nothing."

"Everyone will experience difficulties and make mistakes. It can't always be smooth sailing. I understand this." Dong Fangzhuo looked at him seriously. It was also the first time that he had such a 'deep' chat with Benzema. This exchange was not a bit involved. When it comes to the inner part, the relationship will immediately become much closer. This is true between men and women, and also between men.

Benzema doesn't understand him, but he understands Benzema.

Benzema is a troubled youth. The troubles he has caused so far are really the tip of the iceberg in his football career, and there will be more in the future.

"Everyone will make mistakes when they are young, but that doesn't mean that every time you make a mistake, you just have to make up for it. Some mistakes are irreparable, you know?" Dong Fangzhuo really doesn't favor Benzema at all. Say whatever you want.

You know, Benzema also caused a lot of things later. Drunk driving, speeding, threatening with a gun, and even threatening national team teammates with indecent videos, etc.

In fact, Barcelona had offered Benzema an olive branch as early as 2008, but it was stopped at the last moment. In 2008, Barcelona almost signed the French forward for 30 million euros, but it fell through because technical staff determined that Benzema had character problems. According to Western media, Begiristain, then Barcelona's technical director, flew to France to meet with Benzema in April of that year. As a result, the club's technical staff warned Begiristain that Benzema was withdrawn and could not face problems bravely. His psychological defects will affect his football career.

Can a troubled young man avoid committing crimes? impossible……

Benzema was silent. He didn't have many friends and he was not gregarious. When he heard Dong Fangzhuo preaching to him, his face obviously turned ugly.

Maybe he restrained himself because he thought that Dong Fangzhuo was also a fierce and evil person.

However, Dong Fangzhuo had no intention of stopping, but he changed the topic at the right time.

"I think when you first debuted, your movements were so similar to Ronaldo. I thought you were the second Ronaldo."

Sure enough, Benzema raised his eyebrows slightly.

Ronaldo.

This was his idol when he was a child, a unique idol, no one else.

"Huh, I think you are more like it."

"You've been playing with his pendulum until now, but I don't dare to play with him anymore."

The two of them really seemed to have found a common topic.

"I'm also wondering why you don't dare to play with the pendulum anymore? This is a rhythm that is about to be lost." Dong Fangzhuo smiled, feeling relieved in his heart. Xindao was chatting with Benzema, and I felt really tired. I had to figure out his mood all the time. Originally he didn't care, but wouldn't it be nice to pull him out of the quagmire?

In his memory, Benzema did not gradually mature until he was at least 27 or 28 years old, but his career also began to go downhill. If you hit him now, maybe you can have unexpected effects?

"Because I'm afraid of getting hurt."

"When you are sprinting with the ball at high speed, the strain on your knees is too great, and you might get serious injuries." Benzema squinted, with a trace of regret flashing in his eyes. It seemed like he still liked to play with the pendulum.

"Isn't that why Ronaldo ended up like this?"

"Ha ha!"

"I think that's just one aspect of it."

"Knee injuries are a given."

"But the reasons are many." Dong Fangzhuo began to analyze. "I think his body becoming heavier is also one of the reasons. The heavier and heavier body makes it difficult for him to continue to do such movements. Of course, he was injured in 1998. He is the culprit. If he has not been injured, it should not be such a big problem, and he does not take care of his body. If his life is regular and his training is planned, his body will naturally be much better and there will not be so many injuries. Maybe Now……"

"Then now he is invincible and has no rivals. No one can compare even at the age of 34." Benzema was obviously excited, but then his eyes dimmed, "But I heard that he will retire next year. There is no if in this world, alas.”

pessimistic.

Benzema's mood could easily turn pessimistic.

Maybe this has something to do with the environment in which he grew up when he was a child!

"So there is no regret medicine in life. Do you think if Ronnie was given another chance, he would still choose this kind of life?"

"I don't know." Benzema looked up and stared into the distance, his eyes becoming blurred, "I would like to know."

"He did not want."

Dong Fangzhuo suddenly said something.

"Really, that's what he said."

"He never said what he really meant to the outside world, but he said this to me."

ha?

Benzema was stunned, why did Ronaldo say these things to you? Really? But then he thought that when Benzema was playing in Milan, he seemed to have a very close relationship with Ronaldo, and it was very normal for the two people to have this kind of conversation.

"He doesn't want to," he repeated.

"Yes, he said that if he was given another chance, he would definitely cherish the body God gave him, and he would devote himself to the field of football to fight to the end. He always lamented that his peak was too short, If he hadn't been injured and if there hadn't been so many messy things, he could have reached his peak at least until the 2010 World Cup. He said he envied Rivaldo and Carlos."

Benzema listened silently. At this time, he was listening to a person telling the story of his idol.

After a long time, he sighed.

"I remember that you are also a follower of his footsteps?" Dong Fangzhuo glanced at him and asked tentatively.

"Um."

He nodded, then added, "But I'm also lost."

He scratched the back of his head and his thoughts returned to the reality in front of him. The reality of things made him breathless.

"Is it because of that incident?"

"Yes, it's too bad. I'm thinking about it even when I'm sleeping. It's like a nightmare that I can't get rid of. How could I have done such a stupid thing!"

Benzema covered his forehead, looking very regretful.

"You want me to be serious?"

Benzema nodded.

"With your character, it's impossible to get out without doing something, otherwise you might become Higuain."

"Higuain? Haha, haha, that makes sense. I'm not that Higuain guy, haha, hahahaha."

"But, you are not 23 years old yet, your career has just begun to shine, and your life has just begun. Do you want to start falling when you are 23? Do you want to fall like a shooting star?"

"Ronnie has been at the top of his game for several years. Even after returning from a serious injury, he is still a world-class striker. But if you die at the age of 23..."

Dong Fangzhuo suddenly changed the subject and brought it back.

Well!

This time, Benzema was stunned.

What Dong Fangzhuo said is not wrong at all. The truth is real. He is only 23 years old and has not reached the top yet. He has just started. If he falls, it will not matter.

The more he thought about it, the uglier his face became, and he felt like a big fool.

"This time the French team temporarily excluded you, maybe it was just a temporary punishment, but what about next time, what about next time, do you think they will continue to tolerate it? With your character, you know, you might You will do some unique things, but one day, you will find that your thoughts at that time are different from your thoughts later. There will always be one thing that makes you feel that you did something wrong."

"Of course, it depends on what you think."

Benzema finally fell silent and stopped chatting. This time he really didn't answer the call. The chat just now was quite relaxed, but now he suddenly felt very heavy in his heart.

Ronaldo was once the number one person in the world. Standing on top of the world, who do you think he is? After coming to Real Madrid, I was very embarrassed and successfully squeezed Higuain away, but what do I have now?

Cristiano Ronaldo's substitute, Dong Fangzhuo's substitute? Can you still mix it up in the future?

No,

No,

No!

so terrible.

He finally realized what an idiot he was!

I am nothing...

"We may have a better way to go, win many championships in Real Madrid, perform well in the national team, and have a more brilliant career. When we reach the day of retirement, we can tell All over the world, we have had a brilliant career, no worse than other historical stars."

"I don't know what you think, that's what I think."

"I can't let my career have any regrets."

Benzema remained silent.

"Maybe we did a lot of things, and only when we look back do we realize how stupid we were, but by then it was too late."

Dong Fangzhuo seemed to see through his mind, patted his shoulder gently and said: "Come on,"

"Make a good time at Real Madrid."

"You are still young, and there is still time for everything."

"Let's win some titles at Real Madrid together?"

"..."

Dong Fangzhuo ignored him and started jogging quietly alone.

The training ground was very quiet. There were only two of them on the first team side, except for the echelon training ground not far away which was still very lively.

Basically, all the first-team players have gone back to represent the national team, and the youth team has no such task.

"Look, that's Chinese Dong!"

"He is with brother Benzema."

"Shall we go to him and get an autograph?"

On the youth team side, two young children were lying on their backs, their eyes always focused on Dong Fangzhuo and Benzema. The two people look very similar, except that one is taller and older, and the other is shorter and younger.

"It's not good. When my father finds out, he will definitely tell us something. He asked us to stay away from Benzema's brother." The short one said.

"We are looking for the Chinese director, not Benzema. There is no problem."

"Let's go! It's rare to meet him. There's no one around." The big guy had already gotten up and rushed to the door of the wire fence. The guys behind him quickly got up and followed.

Soon, they circled around to the first team and came to beat Dong Fangzhuo.

Dong Fangzhuo was just running slowly and had already noticed these two guys.

"Enzo?"

He stopped first.

"ha?"

"you know me?"

"Of course, I see you a lot in the news about Real Madrid's youth teams."

"Ha, that's it." Enzo didn't know what to say, and his movements became a little awkward.

"Your father was a great player and I admire him very much."

"Are you my father's friend?"

"Oh, I haven't met him yet."

Enzo's father is Zidane. Even if you are not a friend, you must know him. Isn't this strange...

As for being familiar with Enzo, he is indeed familiar with it on the official website of the club's youth team. Of course, Dong Fangzhuo also knew him somewhat in his previous life, but more recently, he is familiar with Real Madrid's youth team.

After all, Evergrande and Real Madrid have an official cooperation, and many youth training matters will be involved, so Dong Fangzhuo often pays attention to it.

Looking at Enzo in front of him, Dong Fangzhuo felt very sorry.

Because Enzo Zidane did not inherit his father's excellent football genes, he ultimately failed to play at a high level in the football circle and fell into obscurity.

He was born in 1995 and is now 15 years old. He has not made a name for himself even at the age of 15. He is old! It’s over!

"Are you Luca?"

Looking at the younger child, Dong Fangzhuo guessed.

"Yeah, I'm Luca."

"oh."

"What do you want from me?"

"I want your autograph," Luca blurted out.

"Haha, this is simple, but my signature is not as valuable as your father's."

"But in our opinion you are the best player in the world."

"Really? But I still feel that I am far from your father."

At this time, Benzema also followed.

"Luka, Enzo, why are you here? You don't train well."

"Brother Karim..."

"We just want to get Brother Dong's autograph."

"Oh, then go back to training after you get it, otherwise your father will have to explain to you again when he sees you not training well." When dealing with children, Benzema seems to be a different person, with a very gentle attitude.

"I don't have a pen, how can I sign it?" Dong Fangzhuo spread his hands.

"Tomorrow? You can definitely still see me here at this time tomorrow."

"Okay, then tomorrow..."

Enzo and Luca could only reluctantly leave the first team training ground.

After the two people left, Dong Fangzhuo smiled.

"Are you familiar with them?"

"Ha, yes, I often go to their house to play."

"You're so lucky." Dong Fangzhuo suddenly felt a little envious. Not everyone can go to Zidane's house to play often.

"Huh?" Benzema smiled, "It's okay, I don't want to go. Zidane often calls me to go."

"Why?"

"It's a lot of pressure. He's always lecturing me. I'm scared."

"For this incident, he has called me home five times, and he even called me over tonight. I am still thinking of some excuse to shirk it, but I can't think of any excuse yet."

"If there is anything to look for, keep your head up and your chest high. We must get used to taking responsibility. If we do something wrong, we have done something wrong. There is no need to be afraid to face it."

"I would like to have an awesome senior to guide me on my life path. How happy would that be?"

"Maybe……"

"How about you go with me tonight?"

"Ah? Is it appropriate? This is too abrupt. After all, Zidane doesn't know."

"Hey, it's okay, he always mentions you in front of us."

"ah?"

"Yeah, you always set an example to hit me..."

"..."

※※※※

In the afternoon of the same day, the first-round draw of Spain's 2010/11 Copa del Rey knockout stage ended. Real Madrid's first-round opponent was Murcia in the Spanish Third Division, and Barcelona's first-round opponent was Ceuta.

The two legs of the first round of the Copa del Rey will be played on October 27th and November 10th. It is worth mentioning that the coach of Real Madrid's opponent Murcia, Ignaki Alonso, was once the coach of Real Madrid United and eliminated Real Madrid in the Copa del Rey two years ago...

And Dong Fangzhuo also agreed to Benzema to visit French football king Zidane...
