I am Quaresma

Chapter 493 Only after the end of the game did I know the importance of Quaresma

After flying back to Madrid, Quaresma didn't get much rest time at all. After gathering with the team, he immediately flew to Italy.

Next is the Champions League group stage between Real Madrid and Lazio.

But as soon as the plane landed, Quaresma got a piece of news that made him very happy.

In the just-concluded European Cup qualifiers between France and Lithuania, Henry played on behalf of the French team and scored twice to help the French team beat their opponents.

Importantly, after scoring two goals, Henry broke the French national team's scoring record of 41 goals held by Platini with 43 goals.

This is the writing of a generation of legends!

After Zidane retired, Henry was my real number one superstar, and his performance lived up to the fans' expectations of him.

"Congratulations, Thierry." Quaresma called Henry to congratulate Henry on his achievements.

"Thank you, although I don't think there is anything to celebrate, I'm glad you can call!" Henry's tone was not as calm as he said.

"You still have a lot of time to continue to create records. Maybe when you retire, your scoring record in the national team has reached a height that no one else can match!"

This is not a compliment to Quaresma, although Henry will start to decline in a few seasons, but he also has enough time to score more goals in the national team, breaking through time and time again created by himself. record.

If Quaresma remembers correctly, until he was reborn, Henry's French national team scoring record was still maintained by himself and has not been broken.

After all, Henry has been selected for the national team at a young age, and has always been the Zhengyin striker of the French national team. At the same time, he also maintains a high scoring efficiency. As a result, his record is difficult to be broken.

Unless a real talent shows up, at least Quaresma doesn't know who has that potential.

"Don't talk about me!" Henry shook his head slightly on the other end of the phone, "Compared to you, I feel that I have lived in vain for so many years!"

"Although I don't know how many goals you have scored in the Portuguese national team, I think it must be no less than me. Even if there are better shooters in the history of the country, I believe you will definitely be able to score in a short time." Can break records, can't you?"

Hearing what Henry said,

Quaresma was slightly taken aback, he really hadn't paid attention to this.

He doesn't know how many national team goals he has scored, but he does know who is the player with the most goals in the history of the Portuguese national team.

Pauleta scored a total of 47 goals in his ten-year international career, which is the personal historical scoring record of the Portuguese national team.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but fell into deep thought. He wanted to calculate how many goals he had scored for the national team.

It seems that it really can't be counted!

Maybe he didn't score too many goals before, but since the last World Cup qualifiers, his goals have been unstoppable!

Not to mention anything else, just 15 goals in the World Cup is enough for many people to work hard in the national team for a lifetime.

Just participated in two European Cup qualifiers, one big four, one hat-trick, that's 7 goals.

According to the current scoring efficiency, will Pauleta's scoring record be far behind?

After the European Cup qualifiers, coupled with next year's European Cup race, perhaps Quaresma will be able to leave Pauleta's record far behind.

"You're right, I also think it's not difficult to break the record!" Quaresma said very stinky.

Henry on the other end of the phone obviously paused. He hadn't seen Quaresma for a few months, and he had really forgotten Quaresma's true nature.

Well, such cynicism is Quaresma.

...

This is not the first time Quaresma has come to Italy. In the previous seasons of the Champions League, he played against Juventus and Milan, and conquered Italian teams several times.

Compared with Juventus, which once dominated Serie A, and Milan, which has always been extremely dominant in the Champions League, Real Madrid's opponent Lazio in this game is not so strong.

Even if Real Madrid has not reached the strongest state, it is not comparable to Lazio, so many people think that Real Madrid is just going through the motions in this game.

In fact, when Schuster arranged for the players to watch the video of the Lazio game together before the game, everyone generally felt that they underestimated their opponents.

Perhaps in the eyes of many people, the main players in Lazio's lineup are all Serie A champions, but in the field of European football, it is unlikely to be able to do so.

In principle, taking any player from Real Madrid's main lineup to Lazio may become Lazio's number one star.

The gap is so obvious!

If there can be a team like Real Madrid, wouldn't every team become a top giant?

Of course, contempt is contempt, and tactically still attaches great importance to opponents. After all, Real Madrid is now in the running-in period. It is also a good thing to let opponents train for themselves like this.

It's just that Real Madrid must have never thought that Lazio would play so aggressively at their home court, as if they never knew how many such opponents had been beaten to death by Real Madrid.

The first half of the game is not over yet, the suspense of the whole game has disappeared without a trace. The Lazio fans in the stands lost their souls, and the players on the field also lost their souls. They were really beaten. !

The ball was indeed played crazily, and Real Madrid did not expect it, but this did not prevent Real Madrid from using the sharpest counterattack to poke a few big holes in Lazio.

Within a few minutes of the game, Quaresma blasted away Lazio's goal with a standard Quaresian counterattack.

I don't know whether Lazio didn't learn the lesson or was eager to equalize the score. The aggressive style of play has not changed at all, and then Quaresma and Robinho taught them how to behave.

Quaresma scored twice, Robinho also scored, and the two beat Lazio to pieces.

Originally planned to have a hat-trick in the second half, but not long after the start of the second half, Quaresma was replaced by Schuster.

Schuster is not Scolari. He is very cautious in using Quaresma. He has just played two European Cup qualifiers and then went to Italy to play in the Champions League without stopping. Let him rest no matter what.

In Schuster's view, a three-goal lead is already safe, so replacing Quaresma will not be too much of a problem.

Quaresma didn't mind this matter too much, after all, he couldn't play every minute in a season.

But no one thought that it was this substitution that almost ruined the good situation of Real Madrid.

Lazio will not be willing to admit defeat, especially after Real Madrid replaced Quaresma, they saw and hoped that they would launch a more violent offensive.

Real Madrid was caught off guard, and Lazio pulled two goals in a row, and the situation suddenly became precarious.

Quaresma is not on the field, and Robinho alone can't fight back at all. As long as Lazio consciously pinches this point, Real Madrid's counterattack will hardly threaten Lazio's goal.

This time, Real Madrid panicked!

Raul kept motivating the players, but he couldn't stop the imposing Lazio, especially a few minutes before the end of the game, they would bombard Real Madrid's goal indiscriminately, causing the Real Madrid fans to have a heart attack They are about to commit crimes.

Quaresma could only sit on the bench and worry, but he couldn't exert any strength. If he was on the court, I would never allow Lazio to be so arrogant.

Schuster frowned tightly, with indelible melancholy and anxiety in his expression, he really regretted it.

Why did I replace Quaresma so early?

Don't you deserve it!

Fortunately, the man standing in front of Real Madrid's gate was Casillas, who kept Real Madrid's victory with his godlike performance.

When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, the Real Madrid players were even more excited when they won the La Liga championship. This difficult game made them realize that they are really not invincible.

At the press conference after the game, Schuster did not avoid sensitive topics, and directly took the responsibility for the almost equalizer on himself. He admitted that it was his substitution adjustment that made Real Madrid fall into a passive position.

His meaning is very clear, if Quaresma has not been replaced, then there will be absolutely no subsequent performance.

The media also agrees with this statement, such a simple question can be seen clearly.

It's just that such a statement is a bit embarrassing for Saviola, who replaced Quaresma on the field. Quaresma went smoothly on the field, but after being replaced by Saviola, he was completely passive, even if it was not Saviola himself. Human problems are enough to embarrass him.

This almost unexpected game also made Real Madrid fans truly realize the importance of Quaresma to Real Madrid.

Perhaps before this, many fans felt that on the basis of Real Madrid's already strong formation, Quaresma only played the role of icing on the cake.

But now the fans have discovered that even Real Madrid, which has a powerful team, is not invincible. Facing Lazio, which is obviously weaker than them, they are so passive and so difficult, which can only explain one problem.

Quaresma played a huge role in those games that Real Madrid won.

No, without Quaresma, Real Madrid would be completely out of shape.

Real Madrid has always lost the chain in the Champions League, isn't this game the best proof!

Quaresma is not the icing on the cake, but the real savior of Real Madrid.

Anyway, after this game, the media criticized Real Madrid as much as they praised Quaresma, which are completely two extremes.

Quaresma didn't care too much about this, after all, there were some things that he couldn't control.

On the one hand, it was indeed a failure for Schuster to replace him, but it is undeniable that Lazio did perform exceptionally well in the second half, otherwise Real Madrid would not have played so passively.

Perhaps playing the same game ten times, Lazio may not be able to play the effect of this game again.

Well, luck is probably like this, who is to blame?

 …

After returning from Lazio, Real Madrid went through a brief adjustment and immediately entered a fighting state, advancing triumphantly on two different fronts at the same time.

In the eighth round of the league, Real Madrid challenged the Espanyol away. Although Real Madrid and the Espanyol have a certain tacit relationship when facing Barcelona, ​​when they compete with each other, there is no need to talk about this relationship. After all, Winning is the key.

Although the Spaniard would like to cause a little trouble for Real Madrid at home, just like what Lazio just did, the problem is that the strength does not allow...

The result is obvious. Although some of the main players were rotated, Real Madrid still easily won the Spaniard and maintained a strong momentum of winning streak.

Quaresma scored a goal, Robinho was also in hot form on the right, and Sneijder also made achievements in the midfield. Almost everyone played their best form.

In the next ninth round of La Liga, Real Madrid played against Deportivo at home. Although Deportivo caused some troubles for Real Madrid, Real Madrid finally won a victory and raised the opening winning streak to nine games. Of course, this refers specifically to La Liga. .

This has tied the La Liga opening streak record, and this record was also created by Real Madrid's predecessors.

No one thought that Real Madrid would tie the record so quickly, it was as simple as eating with someone.

From this point of view, it seems that it is not difficult for Real Madrid to break their opening winning streak. As long as Valencia is in the next round, they can unlock this achievement.

Now, Real Madrid's dominance in La Liga is already in full swing. Even if the game is sometimes bumpy, in the end they can save the day and take all three points.

In other words, it was Quaresma who gave Real Madrid unlimited possibilities.

Who dares to say that Real Madrid spent 160 million euros to buy Quaresma was taken advantage of, there is a universal truth in the world - expensive, there must be a reason for being expensive.

In fact, this is similar to the bald theorem.

Since it costs 30 million euros to buy a player, why not spend 10 million more to buy a player with a higher level of strength?

Since it takes 40 million euros to buy a player, why not spend an extra 10 million to buy a more famous one?

Since it costs 50 million euros to buy players, why not spend 10 million more to buy a star who can determine the outcome of the game?

 …

By analogy, in fact, Real Madrid may only want to buy an offensive player worth 30 million euros, such as Robben.

But in the end it cost 160 million euros to buy Quaresma!

Thinking about it, I find it very interesting.

Of course, maybe 30 million to buy Robben is worth the money, but if you spend 160 million euros to buy Quaresma, it may be more cost-effective!

A great value for money price!

At present, in the boundaries of Madrid, and even in every corner of the world map, there are braggadocios everywhere. When Quaresma can always contribute incomparably wonderful performances, it is difficult to find these ordinary braggarts. Sima's novel way, once a boast is fresh and refined, then he will be promoted to a high-level boast with a certain reputation, and in the high-level boast, he can always choose a weird angle to blow Quaresma into the sky Guy, you are qualified to compete for the leader of the bragging group!

Of course, the leader of boasting is definitely Quaresma, because without Quaresma, they don't even know who they are going to brag about!
