Chapter 143 He Is Just a 17-Year-Old Boy

Ramos clapped his hands in the room and said, "Bai Ran said it well. Even if we face a stronger opponent, there is nothing to fear. We played well in this game, and we will definitely do better in the next one!"

"Brothers, don't slack off every day. We have already made it to the quarter-finals. Roma is just one of our opponents on the road to the championship. We will face greater challenges in the future."

"But we are united and will definitely defeat all teams!"

"Long live Real Madrid! Hala Madrid!"

The captain's remarks ignited a flame in everyone's heart, and all the players shouted loudly with Ramos: "Hala Madrid!!"

After that, Real Madrid's training continued every day. Three days later, it would be the peak collision of the Champions League. Real Madrid's soldiers doubled their efforts in training!

In addition to Zidane's tactical guidance to the players, Toni Kroos also brought everyone a pre-match analysis.

"Brothers, I personally think that Roma will use the classic 433 formation in the next game."

"The coach let me watch their previous games. In major games, they generally don't choose innovative lineups. They will use traditional methods to compete with us."

"In the frontcourt, we naturally need to pay attention to Salah."

"This point must be completely suppressed. His breakthrough ability and speed are excellent. Marcelo must be prepared for this."

"If the pressure is too great, Casemiro must also move closer to that side to prevent the opponent from letting Salah hold the ball comfortably."

Crosston After a moment, he pointed at the tactical board with a pen and said, "Center forward Dzeko's personal ability is also very strong. As a striker who grabs points, he can often threaten us on the offside line. We must prevent this, but we cannot use the offside trap."

"When defending, you can jump to the defense line as much as possible, but you must not let him easily wander on our offside line. This is very dangerous."

And Roma's midfielders include Pjanic, De Rossi and Naingran. These three main midfielders have good physical confrontation and defensive abilities. The passing organization can only be regarded as barely passing, so the pressure on Real Madrid's midfield is still not small.

Especially Bai Ran.

"Bai Ran may need more physical confrontation in this game, but try to avoid it. Their midfield is very tough."

"Modric, you can move forward more to support him."

"And Roma's defender Rudiger should have recovered from injury, but I don't know if Roma will take the risk of sending him to play in this tough game."

The Real Madrid players listened attentively to Tony's analysis and arrangements, and Zidane supplemented from time to time.

"Cristiano's opponent should be Florenzi. Although they have Maicon, Maicon's effect should be far less than his at this time."

"This player is characterized by his fast speed and is an all-around player on both sides. He can play both as a full-back and a wing-back. However, according to my observation, Florenzi's running speed has dropped significantly in recent times, causing him to be somewhat powerless when defending whether he plays as a wing-back or a full-back."

"If you find the right opportunity, you can choose to pass him directly and be more confident."

C Ronaldo nodded with a serious look.

Kroos has been studying and exploring Roma these days. He has made full preparations to discuss with these Real Madrid players today.

After all, Roma is a very powerful team in Serie A, and Italian football is known for its strong defense, so Real Madrid's offensive firepower pressure is very huge and the task is very arduous.

Even Benzema looked worried, fearing that he would not be able to play to his due level and strength in the face of such an iron-blooded defense, and even the field would be dragged down.

Bai Ran didn't know whether it was his strength that supported his confidence, or whether he had a kind of temperament of a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers. After listening to Toni Kroos's explanation, a strong fighting spirit flashed in his eyes.

He couldn't wait to compete with Roma.

After all, this was his first time facing a giant and his first time participating in the Champions League!

At the same time, Roma, far away in Italy, was not to be outdone and did not slack off in training.

Even their head coach Spalletti expressed his position in an interview with the media, with a very confident tone.

"Italian teams have the longest history, and Roma is one of the oldest. We are not inferior to Real Madrid in any way. I think we are confident that we can defeat our opponents in the quarter-finals."

"Even if the opponent is very strong, we are no worse."

"To be honest, many reporters have asked me if I have any pressure against Real Madrid. Listen, I will answer this question in front of all the media now."

"We are in good shape, we don't have any pressure, and we have made all preparations."

"Zidane, wait to be eliminated by Roma!"

This remark made the fans of Roma very excited!

The head coach said this, how can they not be very excited!

Against Real Madrid, the two teams can be said to meet on a narrow road. This is a strong contest. The strength of both teams is extraordinary. What is tested is their fighting spirit, mentality, and the state of the day.

Spalletti also knows that they are still a little behind Real Madrid in various positions, but it is not obvious, and they can make up for it with the spirit of the team.

So they must let the players hold a determination to win and participate in this game!

The fans of Roma are also boiling, and they are shouting at Real Madrid on the Internet.

"Rome will win!"

"Your warships are waiting to be overturned!"

"The Italian fans are covered in glory, and they are not afraid of you Real Madrid at all!"

"Pride will be defeated. Real Madrid has played several games and has been bullying. The state must be not good. Watch it, I must make you look good."

How can the fans of Real Madrid tolerate such provocation?

They are unstoppable now, and their form is just hot. Roma is here to shout at them now. Who is spoiling you?

"Come on, stop it. Do you know the current club ranking?"

"What's your Roma ranking? Why don't I see your team? It's on the next page!"

"Besides, we have Bai Ran! When the game comes, Bai Ran will naturally let you see Real Madrid's invincible attack."

Bai Ran is definitely the number one contributor to Real Madrid's exaggerated scores and goals in these few games. Real Madrid fans also like Bai Ran very much and have gone to support this young Chinese player.

They are the same on the Internet. The trump cards they can play have gradually changed from Ronaldo to Bai Ran!

Although these fans in Italy support Roma, they have also heard of Bai Ran's name.

Even before this talented midfielder was still playing in Castilla and was popular all over Europe, a team in Serie A had offered Bai Ran a price.

But not only did he fail to pass the Castilla level, but he was also rejected from direct communication with Bai Ran!

Bai Ran said: I have no intention of transferring recently. I just want to play well in every game.

Therefore, Italian fans felt very sorry because they had also seen Bai Ran's strength. He was indeed very strong and had a bright future.

Who would not feel it was a pity that such a player could not be signed?

And now I didn't expect to face this kid so soon. This is the perspective of an opponent!

Italian fans replied: "Bai Ran is just a 17-year-old kid. What experience does he have in big competitions?!"

"Even if he performs well in your La Liga, our defense is not for free. With the strength of your La Liga, anyone can pass through it, okay?"

"Try to fight us?"

What this fan said actually makes some sense. Another ability of players is the ability to perform in big competitions. Many stars play in hot form in the league, especially well, with excellent data and performance.

But when it comes to big competitions, they become weak.

This is because they don't have a big heart! They are not suitable for big competitions and are easily nervous.

And there are some players, even if they are unknown in normal times, their playing level is very consistent with their own strength, and they have always been tepid, but once they get to the big game, their performance is simply improved by two or three levels!

It is not a dimension compared to normal times.

The typical example in Bai Ran's mind is - Di Maria!

Although he is not weak and strong in normal times, it must be admitted that he can score goals in the finals, and only the key goals!

This kind of key man plays a very important role in the Champions League, but he is generally not a newcomer.

Newcomers in football generally do not perform very stably in big games. After all, they have very little overall game experience, let alone crucial games.

Without experiencing the success and failure of several big games, there is no way to perform stably in big games.

Their mood will definitely be affected to a great extent.

Bai Ran is a typical example. What big games can a 17-year-old kid play?

This is even his first Champions League game!

What experience does he have!

Roma fans have seen Bai Ran's games and admit that he is strong, but it is not certain when he enters the Champions League!

However, in China, there are also countless fans who are looking forward to this game!

Because it is a feat for Chinese people to enter the Champions League, which is not easy!

Short videos on the Internet are posted one after another. Some of these bloggers have opened an account specifically for Bai Ran, and only update Bai Ran's highlights and games, as well as his daily life on the training ground.

Of course, most of these bloggers' IPs are in Madrid. They can see Bai Ran every day and then record it with their mobile phones. The number of likes for each video can exceed hundreds of thousands, which is very popular.

On the same day, a blogger also released a video saying that Real Madrid's next game was the Champions League against Roma, and Zidane was very likely to put Bai Ran on the list, and the Chinese were finally going to step onto the highest stage in Europe.

Then, he explained and analyzed a lot of evidence in the video, and all the reasons showed that Bai Ran would definitely be included in Zidane's tactical arrangements.

When the fans saw it, they forwarded it and left messages under the video.

"You make a lot of sense, I believe you! Bai Ran will definitely play!"

"Awesome! Bai Ran, he's playing in the Champions League!"

"Chinese football king! You must perform well in the Champions League! I look forward to your return with goals!"

"Isn't it just a small Roma? Go get him! He's bullying the Chinese football king, I won't agree!"

"As an old fan of Bai Ran, I really shed tears. When he was in the Castilla youth training team, I told him that I really wanted to see him play in the Champions League. I didn't expect it to come true now!"

"And in less than a year, Bai Ran helped me realize this dream. This is incredible!"

"I feel like I'm dreaming now!"

Some fans also expressed doubts.

"Impossible? It's all nonsense. Before the official news comes out, everything is nonsense."

"Let's go. It's impossible. Bai Ran is an Asian. They don't lack young players. There are so many good players in the team. How can Bai Ran be ranked higher?"

"The person above is football blind! He must not watch football to say such things!"

"I also think it's unlikely. After all, Bai Ran has only played a few games in La Liga. Let him play against Roma directly? It's not realistic."

Even if these fans don't dare to believe it, they are still shocked.

Because this news is like a real thing, maybe it will really work.

The pre-match list has not been announced yet, but the topic has already exploded in the football world.

These Chinese fans don't want Bai Ran to play in the Champions League, but they think they can't be too optimistic, otherwise they will be disappointed if they don't see Bai Ran's performance.

At this time, Bai Ran also took out his mobile phone and took a look at the social account in the background. The fans on the media have exceeded 20 million, which has doubled from the last time!

Wow?

Bai Ran was a little stunned. How come his followers increased so quickly? Was it because he was going to play in the Champions League?

It seems that the popularity of the Champions League is still high. There are more people paying attention to it than the usual league games!

Many fans from all over the world followed Bai Ran, and another part were die-hard fans from China. Moreover, he gained a wave of female fans after posting the photo showing his muscles.

Since it was the first time to enter the Champions League, this matter was a hot topic in China. Many people who don’t watch football also followed Bai Ran after hearing the news.

Bai Ran looked at the comments under these videos.

"Come on, Bai Ran. It’s useless to just score a hat trick in the league. Try to score three goals in the Champions League. Then you will be really awesome!"

"You are my spiritual support. You must win! The coach of the other team has already made a harsh statement. You can’t spoil him!"

At this time, the system prompt sounded in Bai Ran’s mind as usual.

[Ding! ]

[Task prompt! ]

[Create three goals in a single game in the Champions League! ]

[Reward: Random C-level! 】

"Accept." Bai Ran accepted the task without hesitation.

He mentioned the Champions League, but he didn't say it had to be this Champions League match. According to his growth rate, wouldn't it be easy to create three goals in a single game in the future?

If he can't play against a big club, he will always have a chance to play against a weak team in the Champions League in the future!

He didn't believe that his luck could be so bad that he couldn't draw a good lottery every time.

As long as he tried his best, there would be basically no problem.

At the same time, Bai Ran also saw how quickly his fans increased, but just now, when his teammate Varane was chatting with him, he talked about adding contact information.

"Bai Ran, add you a bluebird."

"Bluebird?" Bai Ran didn't quite know what that was, after all, it was not very convenient to use in China.

Varane spread his hands, looking very puzzled.

"Bluebirds, we are all using that social network, don't you?"

It seems like a very strange thing, but Bai Ran still downloaded the two apps, Bluebirds and INs, under Varane's guidance. I heard that foreign fans prefer to use these two apps to view updates and add friends.

After Bai Ran registered, the fans also noticed that a person named BaiRan appeared on Bluebirds, and also posted a message saying that he came to Bluebirds and hoped that everyone would support him.

But after they saw it, they frowned.

It's fake at first glance!

Bai Ran is a Chinese, he doesn't use this thing at all!

Block him decisively!

However, Bai Ran completed the real-name authentication in no time, and the check mark in the corner of the avatar also lit up.

The fans were shocked, damn!

Real at first glance!

Bai Ran loves life, so what's so strange about downloading software?

Decisive attention!

However, it is worth mentioning that the number of fans here is increasing much faster than the DouLe video he played before.

The software over there is aimed at Chinese users, while this software is for the whole world!

Moreover, in China, due to the dark corruption of the Football Association, the enthusiasm of the people for football is not as warm and manic as in other countries, so the number of people paying attention will also decrease.

In the next few days, Bai Ran posted his daily life to the account to fill in the content while following Zidane's normal training.

Zidane also arranged targeted tasks to let these people train more defensive abilities and skills.

Two groups of two, the opponent is three offensive players, to see if they can successfully intercept the ball when outnumbered.

Of course, this difficulty is a bit too high. So far, only the combination of Ramos + Carvajal has succeeded, and all other combinations have failed.

Despite this, there is still a happy atmosphere on the field.

Zidane looked at the players' training and a smile appeared on his face.

It seems that they are very relaxed!

This is a good thing.

Many of his training arrangements in the past few days are defensive content, because defense is very important in the Champions League!

It can be said that the focus of defense and offense can basically be 70% and 30%.

If the focus of defense is strengthened, the support in the front court will be less, so the reliance on offense must rely on the personal ability of the players to a certain extent.

This task came to Zidane, and he chose his own way without hesitation.

Give this task to Bai Ran!

Just like when he was in Castilla!
