Chapter 332: The Task of Arranging a Friendly Match, Bai Ran's Past

However, it is worth mentioning that after Real Madrid won Eibar with Bai Ran's goal, the next league match will not be held until October 16, which is two weeks later.

There have been no games in the past two months.

This also gives the Real Madrid team plenty of rest time.

The busy schedule of two games a week or even three games a week has passed, and what remains is a half-month break.

During this period, Zidane naturally gave the players a lot of vacation, and Bai Ran still arranged his vacation to be full.

Three days after the game, Zidane also sent a message in the team group.

Zidane: " x-on:All members"

Marcelo: "?"

Sergio Ramos: "What's up, coach."

Cristiano Ronaldo: "Picture (in the gym)"

After Bai Ran saw it, he smiled slightly, immediately took out his phone to take a selfie, and sent it out.

Bai Ran: Picture (training ground)

James Rodriguez: "Bai Ran is so hardworking, he is still in the training ground?"

"Ronaldo is also very strong, learn from you!"

Sergio Ramos: "Sure, you can train with Bai Ran when you return to the base now. He has been there for many years, and spends more time on the training ground than in bed, hahaha..."

Marcelo: "Isn't this nonsense? Who spends more time in bed than on the training ground? Except for the seriously ill people in our team..."

Casemiro: "..."

"If you have the ability, come to the physiotherapy area."

Zidane: "How have you rested these days? I guess you have forgotten how to play football?"

Danilo: "Impossible, I dreamed of the game yesterday, the Champions League final, and we won on penalties in the end."

Marcelo: "You are really good at dreaming! Let me see if your skills have improved when you return to the base."

Modric: "Okay, stop arguing, what's the matter with the coach?"

Zidane sent a message again: "It seems that you have rested enough, I guess I haven't touched football much these two days. "

"I can understand you. The frequency of three games a week is indeed too high."

"This intensity of games does have a great impact on physical energy consumption."

"So I gave you two consecutive days off. I believe you should have recovered."

Bai Ran: "I can't wait to play the game."

Zidane: "I just discussed this with you. How about arranging a friendly match for you in three days?"

Ramos: "Friendly match?"

"Three days later? Which team is willing to play a friendly match with us? Their schedule is also very tight. In the middle stage of the schedule, I guess no team can spare the energy."

"Although the tickets can sell well..."

Zidane's idea is this. Real Madrid plays friendly matches with other teams. One of the reasons that cannot be refused is that Real Madrid enjoys a high reputation all over the world. Once their stars appear, even if it is a friendly match, there will definitely be many fans who will buy it.

If the contract is negotiated with the other team, how to calculate the ticket price and broadcasting rights income? Hundreds of thousands of euros may not be a big deal for some big teams, maybe just half a year's salary for a superstar, but for a small team, it may be a huge sum of money.

This is also the topic of conversation in Real Madrid's hands.

Zidane: "So I'm discussing with you. If you think it's good, I'll start preparing now. If we can arrange a game, we'll warm up."

"Of course, if most of you don't want to play, then go back to the training ground for extra practice. In short, in the official league two weeks later, it's impossible to show that you haven't touched football for a long time!"

"What's more, we are actually behind in points at this stage, and we don't have a good result in the Champions League."

"But everything depends on your wishes."

Football friendly matches, as a non-competitive form of competition, play a unique and important role in the football world. Although the results of friendly matches are not included in the official results, they have broad and important significance in the football world.

Football friendly matches provide a special platform for teams and players to communicate and compete in a non-stressful environment, which has brought many positive effects.

Although there is no champion in friendly matches, and the winner will not mean anything, it does not mean that friendly matches are meaningless.

Friendly matches can help players maintain their condition, improve their game experience and exercise the team's cooperation ability.

In addition, friendly matches can also provide opportunities for the team's commercial cooperation and create conditions for the team's future development.

The significance of international friendly matches is to improve the level of the team, promote technical exchanges, enhance friendship and understanding between countries, cultivate fan culture, and expand the influence of football.

Improving the level of the team and promoting technical exchanges: Friendly matches are events set up by FIFA to improve the level of national team competitions and enhance technical exchanges.

It also depends on the importance of both parties, who is the inviter, whether the invited team is a strong team or a weak team, and how much the appearance fee is. Many people come for the appearance fee, so they naturally work but do not work hard.

China once invited Germany and Brazil, and both tied, just for the high appearance fee.

Ronaldo was the first to say: "I think it's good."

"I agree with one vote first."

The players couldn't help but laugh when they saw the message pop up on their phones. After all, the Portuguese's contract with Real Madrid includes a goal clause and appearance fee. As long as he attends the game, he can get a good bonus. Once Ronaldo scores a goal, he will get more euros in rewards.

And this is also a good opportunity for Ronaldo to recover.

After all, the game two weeks later will be a little bit unfamiliar.

Bai Ran thought about it and sent: "I agree too."

Later, many players' messages were also sent out.

Marcelo: "Agree."

Ramos: "Just play."

Modric: "I have no opinion."

Many players typed out messages to express their agreement, and basically no one objected.

Zidane finally said: "Well, okay."

"I'll contact the team and show you the opponent and the specific time. You should prepare well in the next two days."

Bai Ran still started to devote himself to his training.

Since it was a complete rest these two days, he didn't even have to go to training, so he had plenty of time for special training.

Bai Ran's training was orderly, with almost no rest from morning to night. In order to facilitate training, Bai Ran had asked Zidane for the landlord's phone number, discussed with the landlord, and dispatched a construction team to convert the small garden behind the house into an open space for training.

Bai Ran was very excited when he saw the construction team modifying the house he rented.

He could do some simple training at home in the future.

When people stay at home, attribute points will come from the sky!

Now Bai Ran has money in his pocket, and there must be a million euros.

After all, the salary here is weekly salary, which is paid once a week. Bai Ran's newly renewed contract has an astonishing annual salary of 15 million euros, which can reach more than one million this month.

However, even with this living standard, Bai Ran is still very decent in life, never spending money on wine and women, and only wants to train and study opponents.

As for money, he is not short of it.

In Bai Ran's original family, these millions of euros are not a lot of money.

On the sixth day after the match day, Bai Ran was training in the backyard and suddenly received a call from Zidane.

"Bai Ran."

Bai Ran picked up the phone and said calmly, "What's wrong, coach?"

Zidane's voice was a little hoarse, and he said, "It's not easy to find a team for friendly matches here. The players' worries are justified."

"Now this period is the middle of the season, and no team has so much free time to play friendly matches."

Bai Ran nodded: "That's normal, what about the lower-level leagues?"

"Those lower-level leagues are probably very happy to cooperate with us."

Zidane: "No, I have basically looked at the teams in the secondary leagues of the five major leagues. Either they are not suitable or they can't arrange the schedule."

"Or you can arrange a friendly match with them. You select a few teammates and the rest form Team B. We can play a game within the team. After all, it's just a warm-up."

Bai Ran thought for a while.

"Coach, I think the team competition has lost its meaning."

"First of all, the purpose of arranging this friendly match is to give the players a sense of the ball, and to gradually warm up in the game state."

"And your tactics should also be considered in the friendly match."

"If this becomes a friendly match within our team, then our players actually know each other's strengths and weaknesses very well, and they also understand your own tactical arrangements and intentions, coach."

"It's not as good as a normal training day if it can't achieve that kind of competitive effect."

Zidane: "You are right, but there is no way now."

"Or let's do it this way, the friendly match is cancelled, and tomorrow it will be changed to daily training."

Bai Ran thought for a while, and then said: "No."

"There is still hope to win a friendly match. After all, our club is a big tree that attracts the wind, and there must be a team that wants to accept it."

"It just depends on what kind of opponent you expect."

"Do you have any requirements for the opponent's strength? For example, the level must be above a certain position?"

Zidane laughed.

"No, it's good enough that there is a team that wants to accept me now. How can I ask for so much."

"But at least it has to be at a professional level. If it's too amateur... forget it."

Bai Ran then replied: "Then you can wait a while. Give me two days. I will try to settle this matter tomorrow."

"I will find a team to arrange the game, but I want to use the Bernabeu stadium. What do you think?"

Zidane slammed the table. Of course, that's a good thing!

But...

With Bai Ran's ability, what team can he call?

He is just 17 years old, just a young player from Real Madrid B team Castilla.

Since the beginning of his professional career, his coach has always been Zidane.

In Spain, can he know more people than himself?

Even Zidane can't find a team to play a game, this kid can?

I don't believe it, I absolutely don't believe it!

But he can try, after all, it's better to treat a dead horse as a living one, the worst case scenario is to train as usual.

It's better if there is, but it doesn't matter if there is none.

Zidane wants to see who Bai Ran will ask for help.

However, at this time, Bai Ran had already dialed a number on his mobile phone.

The place of this number is China!

In fact, before he crossed over to this body, his name was Bai Chen, but Bai Chen at that time was not so strong, but he had been struggling in the Chinese football world for so many years, and of course he had made many friends.

After crossing over to this era, it is estimated that the self in that world line has disappeared.

But those teammates and friends are probably still developing in their respective positions.

Bai Ran guessed that this involved a timeline issue. In his previous life, he played for a club in the Chinese Football League. After he was reborn, the self in the previous world was probably knocked unconscious by the ball, and he didn't know the result later, and he didn't even know whether he was dead or alive.

But Bai Ran didn't care. Since he had come to this world, he would never be the waste he used to be.

In this world, the parents are still the same parents, and the families are still the same families.

It's just that Bai Ran's childhood has become playing football in China. His parents sent him to Spain in Europe for youth training. The original plan was to send him back to China to play football, but Bai Ran actually became famous abroad.

In other words, Bai Chen no longer exists in those domestic clubs.

Those former teammates and friends have never known the name Bai Chen.

But from Bai Ran's perspective, Bai Ran still knows everything about them.

When Zidane mentioned this, the first person Bai Ran thought of was a brother of his.

Before Bai Ran played for a team in the Chinese Football League, he was actually a student in a high school. Later, he applied for sports students and participated in special training for football.

In middle school, Bai Chen played very well with a brother. The two were also teammates in the football school team. Bai Chen played in the midfield, and the brother played as a winger.

After graduation, Bai Chen was recruited by the youth training camp because of his better talent, and the brother started a football club.

That person's name is Zhang Hefeng. Later, he founded a football club and has been playing in the Chinese Football League B.

This club is very conscientious. The selection of players is strictly controlled. The strength of the team is also very good, and there are many talented players.

But everyone knows that the football environment there is a game of gold and power.

Zhang Hefeng did not want to succumb to the power of power and money, and was a maverick, so he was abandoned by the entire football world.

Under such circumstances, the team was secretly manipulated and withdrew from the vision of the football league.

The name of this team is called Nanlou Spirit.

This is a pure football team, a team with core cohesion, a team that is comparable to the level of the Super League and belongs to the Chinese.

The most important thing is that in today's football environment, Chinese people are not actually dominant, so many teams in the Chinese Football League have more or less foreign players.

The tall and strong foreign players have excellent physical fitness and extraordinary skills, and can often serve as the thighs of the team.

However, the Nanlou Spirit team does not have such a situation.

They are composed of an all-Chinese team!

Unfortunately, after Zhang Hefeng offended a well-known senior executive of the Football Association, the team was forced to disband.

Bai Chen also played in Zhang Hefeng's team. After Zhang Hefeng's team disbanded, Bai Ran joined a football team in the Super League as a free agent.

This is the story of the Nanlou spirit.

Bai Ran remembers it vividly!

Those old teammates and good brother Zhang Hefeng, I don't know how they are now.

I am now famous in Spain at home and abroad. I wonder if Zhang Hefeng has heard of my story and name.

If so, will he see that I am the Bai Chen of that year?

Thinking of this, Bai Ran dialed the phone, and the voice on the other end was Zhang Hefeng's.

Zhang Hefeng looked down and saw that it was a phone number from Spain, and he couldn't help frowning.

"Hello?"

Bai Ran was very nervous and answered the phone: "Zhang Hefeng."

"Who are you?"

Zhang Hefeng's tone was a bit bad, because this number from the place of origin is likely to be a scammer.

But Bai Ran said, "Don't hang up yet."

"I know I look like a liar now, but please listen carefully."

"I'm Bai Ran, a midfielder for Real Madrid."

"Bai Ran?" Zhang Hefeng laughed, "I'm still Cristiano Ronaldo!"

"You're sick."

Zhang Hefeng obviously didn't believe Bai Ran's words, so he reacted like this. Bai Ran guessed it, so he hurriedly stopped him.

"Wait!"

"Zhang Hefeng, believe it or not, in a parallel world, we are best brothers!"

"I'm Bai Chen, Bai Chen!"

"What Bai Ran Bai Chen, I don't know him! Did you call the wrong number?"

Zhang Hefeng's reaction was very impatient, and he was about to hang up the phone.

Bai Ran frowned, feeling anxious.

In this world, many things cannot be explained clearly, which made Bai Ran scratch his head and didn't know where to start.

In a hurry, Bai Ran sighed deeply.

In this case...

You forced me to do it!

"Zhang Hefeng, graduated from Nanlou Middle School, captain of the school team, plays winger, and his biggest wish is to form his own football team."

"You have liked red since you were a child, so you are a Liverpool fan and like to drink jasmine tea."

"You like to listen to Jay Chou's songs, especially "Trajectory", and like rainy days."

"You have had three girlfriends, the first one cheated on you, the second one cheated on you, and the third one still cheated on you!"

"You can't wear underwear without blue, blue is fucking worn black!"
