Super Marshal

When the referee blew the whistle for the end of the game, the entire Calderon Stadium completely turned into a sea of ​​celebration.

In the stands, more than 50,000 fans shouted in unison, celebrating the team's early victory.

A shocking score was displayed on the big red scoreboard, five to zero!

This will be a legendary night that countless people will still remember many years later.

But Guardiola was not part of the wave of wild celebrations from fans and players.

As the core of the team's midfield, he played the whole game, and his performance was as stable as ever, which is remarkable.

After the whistle sounded, the first thing he did was to go to his best friend who was closest to him.

Raul!

The Real Madrid striker stood upright with his hands on his waist, staring blankly at the front, not knowing what he was thinking, but it could be seen that he was definitely not feeling well.

Guardiola walked towards him.

He can fully understand Raul's mood at this moment, because he has also experienced the same thing.

At that time, Real Madrid dug Valdano and Redondo from Tenerife after losing the league championship in the last round for two consecutive seasons. As a result, in the first season in the Derby of the Century, they slaughtered Barcelona with five goals. .

Raul's mood now is exactly the same as that of Guardiola at the time.

Maybe, this is reincarnation.

"Hey, Pep." Hierro walked over from the side.

This resolute Spanish tough guy is also a friend of Guardiola for many years. He was born in Barcelona, ​​but he became famous in Real Madrid. Scored 21 goals, setting an insurmountable record.

The two are considered to be of the same generation in the national team, have worked together for many years, and have a very good relationship.

"Fernando." Guardiola walked over and hugged Hierro.

From the face of the Real Madrid captain, Guardiola can not see a little bit of pain.

He knew that Hierro would never write such emotions on his face, because he was the captain of Real Madrid, everyone in the team, and even all the fans were watching him.

This is a rare tough guy!

"Let's chat." Hierro patted Raul's face lightly as a comfort, then turned and walked away.

Compared with the tough Hierro, Raul is more like a melancholy bard. He is very emotional, very delicate, and has a heavy sense of responsibility. He always thinks of doing everything to the best and making everyone Everyone is satisfied.

This kind of personality makes him the best friend of Guardiola, who can talk about everything, but also because of this kind of personality, he is easy to become sentimental, and even always puts more pressure on himself for no reason. burden.

Guardiola stood beside Raul without saying a word, and just accompanied him like this. In the jubilant Calderon Stadium, he looked very abrupt and out of place, but they didn't care.

Finally, Raul broke the silence.

"You know, actually, I can do better."

He was talking about a shot in the game, which Cech judged the direction and saved it.

That was also Real Madrid's most threatening shot in the entire game, and it was also one of two shots on target. Raul won it through his personal efforts.

Guardiola knew Raul too well, smiled slightly, nodded and said: "Me too."

When Raul looked up at him, Guardiola said with a smile: "We are all."

Such a sentence did not sound funny, but it amused Raul.

Of course, the Prince of Real Madrid just gave a coy, miserly smile.

"You know what? When I decided I was going to leave Barcelona, ​​I really thought it was the end of the world, and even when I was in a transfer dispute, I was really, really desperate."

Guardiola spoke slowly, as if he was confessing himself, or as if he was speaking to Raul.

"But now, when I look back and think about it, I don't have to. The reason I felt that way is because I've only been at Barcelona all the time. Bigger and wider than imagined."

Raul listened in silence, head down so no one could see his eyes.

"This Real Madrid is not worthy of Hierro, nor is it worthy of you, my best friend!"

Guardiola's words made Raul clenched his fists unconsciously.

"In the eyes of those in power, our feelings and our loyalty are worthless, and those fans who are crazy about us today will demote us to nothing tomorrow, and even trample us into mud under our feet."

"I am like this, Hierro is like this, and you will be like this in the future!"

As a direct descendant of Barcelona's youth academy, Guardiola has always been regarded as the banner of the team, especially after the old captain Baquero, he took over the captain's armband of the team, but it was also from that period of time that he shouldered the burden heavy pressure.

It was a nightmare experience.

The team is in turmoil, the hearts of the people are lax, and the management is in a mess. All of these have caused the team's poor results.

But who is the easiest and most often blamed?

Guardiola!

As the captain of the team, he was crowned with the title of ball tyrant, blamed for his poor form, and blamed for the team's poor performance...

He seemed to be the punching bag that everyone took for granted.

Isn't it the same for Hierro now?

Who doesn't know about Real Madrid's defensive problems?

Why just blame Hierro?

Just because he said a few words in the media, anti-superstar strategy, defending local teammates, and hoping that the team can be more pragmatic and correct, he has become a ball bully?

Conversely, he is the captain of the team, the leader of the locker room, so what if he is the ball bully?

Hierro's career at the Bernabeu is over. It is conceivable that the next Real Madrid captain is Raul, and then Casillas will be the same.

This is an honor, but also a heavy burden.

Good performance, good grades, everything goes smoothly, but once the performance is not satisfactory and the grades decline, all kinds of ghosts and snakes will jump out.

Today's ball bully is Hierro, tomorrow's ball bully is Raul, and the day after tomorrow's ball bully is Casillas.

This is doomed!

As long as Raul continues to stay in Real Madrid, even if he doesn't want to, he will definitely be forced to take this path.

What's more, what is he doing in Real Madrid?

After the introduction of Ronaldo, Raul was even forced to withdraw his position and leave the area where he was the most threatening and able to play his characteristics best. Then what next?

What if the rumored Beckham joins again?

What if more superstars are introduced in the future?

Seeing Raul's silence, Guardiola also knew that his friend felt uncomfortable.

Raul is an emotional person, but that doesn't mean he's an idiot.

How the club treats Hierro today will treat him tomorrow, he knows very well.

But he's been here for ten years, he's grown up in this city his whole life, and this team gave him what he has now, and he can't let go.

Just like when Guardiola was leaving Barcelona.

It's really not a last resort, no one can let go.

"You, like me, are not suitable to be the captain." Guardiola, like Hierro, patted Raul's face lightly.

"Don't push yourself too hard."

After speaking, Guardiola turned and left.

Everyone has their own values ​​and will make their own choices.

If Raul feels that his feelings for Real Madrid are worth his effort and paying so much, that is also his own choice.

The same players, some people regard their relationship with the club as a cold employment relationship, some people think it is like an equal transaction, some think it is a friend relationship, and some people think it is a relative.

Well, there is always something worth sticking to.
