The Day I Played with Ronaldo

He has a keen sixth sense and that might sum up all of Ronaldo's excellence. As players realize every Sunday morning, the sixth sense is not something that can be easily sustained, but Ronaldo showed us in the World Cup quarter-final against Turkey With his talent, he seems to be able to find the feeling of scoring goals easily. That's his greatest strength, when you just expect him to at least do something, he can surprise you more, as he did at Real Madrid. ——Oliver Hoult

Fabiano loses his smile in training. He also knows that he is not in good shape recently and has been substituted for 3 consecutive games. Every time he was replaced, it was Ricardo. And every time he came off the bench, Ricardo performed well.

So when the media speculated that Ricardo would replace him in the starting line-up, Fabiano had a premonition that this nightmare might come true.

There is no harm if there is no comparison. When he played more than half of the field and did nothing, Ricardo scored or assisted as soon as he came on the field. A fool also knows how to choose.

But being squeezed out of his position by a 16-year-old kid? Even if this child is Ronaldo's younger brother!

Fabiano also has his own pride. In the current Sao Paulo, he is the only one who has had the experience of traveling to Europe. Although this experience was not considered successful, on the contrary it was full of bitterness. He played 11 times in Ligue 1 Rennes and failed to score a goal. But he also tasted the European football culture and improved his ability.

After returning to Sao Paulo, he quickly regained the feeling of scoring goals. He said that it may be too early to become the king of Sao Paulo, and after all, Kaka, the god-given son, is in front of him, but he must be an irreplaceable person in Sao Paulo!

But... Fabiano glanced at Riccardo who was concentrating on training beside him, and Fabiano lowered his head, his eyes filled with gloom.

He has no personal grievances with Ricardo, and even has a good impression of Ricardo because he admires Ronaldo and loves his house.

But now, the two are rivals.

After a day of training, Fabiano didn't say a word to Ricardo.

Riccardo naturally felt the change in Fabiano's attitude, and he also read some articles in the media.

In this regard, Ricardo's attitude is to let nature take its course. Professional football is a very competitive sport, the competition between countries, the competition between clubs and teams, the competition for the main position within the team, the competition for fringe players to be selected for the squad, and the competition for youth team players. The race to get selected to the first team...

Since childhood, the competition has never stopped. He himself is willing to face competition with the attitude of "competition is competition, friendship is friendship", but if others think otherwise, he doesn't care.

As for the position dispute with Fabiano... Ricardo felt that Fabiano really thought too much.

If you really want to compete, with your current peak national player strength, Fabiano's national mid-range level is really not enough.

But his own role positioning does not conflict with Fabiano, and they can completely coexist. Just look at what Osvaldo thinks.

Ricardo noticed that Osvaldo seemed to have the idea of ​​​​changing the formation. During training, he asked the players to try some new ways of passing and running, and kept writing and drawing in a small notebook. Too bad Fabiano was too caught up in his own little kinks to ignore the signs.

...

After the training, Licardo came to the gym and started doing exercises with equipment. When Kaka came over, he was training his thigh muscles.

For football players, especially football players known for their speed, the knee can be said to be the most vulnerable place to be injured. Sudden stop and start, and sudden change of direction during high-speed running are the magic weapons for them to win, but every time All sports can cause damage to the knee.

the only way

It is to strengthen the leg muscles, which can effectively reduce the burden on the knees.

For example, Ronaldo and Cristiano Ronaldo back then, both were very fast, but Ronnie's knee was injured and injured, but Ronaldo's knee was hardly injured.

On the one hand, the playing environment of the two is different. Serie A's defense is tighter and the movements are more extensive; on the other hand, Ronaldo's leg muscles are stronger and can support the knee's change of direction during high-speed sports. Without excessive consumption of cruciate ligaments and menisci.

Ricardo suffered from constant injuries in his previous life. In this life, he wants to play football happily until he grows old without being troubled by serious injuries. Therefore, he not only pays special attention to protecting himself on the court, but also takes the time to exercise off the court. own leg muscles.

Kaka smiled and stood there looking at Licardo for a while, and waited for Licardo to complete a set of movements before greeting: "Hi, Ricardo."

Li Kaduo nodded, while panting slightly, he smiled back: "Are you still going back?"

"I just came to see you. I heard that you practice extra every day?" Kaka asked curiously.

"Yes," Licado was already sweating profusely. He took a towel and wiped it off before looking up at Kaka, "Do you want to practice together?"

"I'll forget it," Kaka waved his hand and refused, "The team doctor said that my muscle groups are now in a state of fatigue and I can't exercise excessively."

After a pause, Kaka said again: "I believe you will be the main player soon, don't be impatient, take your time."

"Thank you." Licado responded with a smile.

"Fabiano must understand that any football player must face competition. I hope he can correct his mentality as soon as possible. In short," Kaka showed a little shyness on his face, "No matter what, I am on your side .”

Kaka's feelings for Ricardo are very simple, and he likes and admires him.

I like it because Kaka adores Daluo, so he loves Likaduo. And the appreciation is due to seeing Ricardo's talent and hard work with his own eyes, as well as cooperating with Ricardo in the game like a fish in water, as if they have a tacit understanding.

He had scored in 4 consecutive games before, 2 of which were directly assisted by Ricardo.

For such a big boy who can feed himself cakes, how could he not love or appreciate him!

And he came here specially today to express his support to Ricardo.

Although he is not the captain, although he usually keeps a low profile in the locker room, as the player with the highest salary, the highest value, the highest prestige, and the most fans in the Sao Paulo club, his statement can be said to have a great impact on Ricardo's living environment in the team. important influence.

"Thank you, Kaka," Riccardo smiled, "but I feel that Fabiano and I should not be competitors, don't you feel it? Mr. Osvaldo should be thinking of a way for the three of us to Tactics of coexistence. Maybe we will be the Three Musketeers of Sao Paulo in the future.”
