Three Hundred and Forty-Two Battle of the Gods
"I don't understand, why do you have to prove yourself in front of the Real Madrid superstar to be eligible for the Ballon d'Or?"
In the gym in the basement of the villa, Su Dong was doing the bench press out of breath, and Messi was sitting beside him, holding a towel in his hand, and asked in disapproval.
Nuno Cruz and Vito Scala were watching Su Dong's training carefully.
While recording the observed information and data, the Portuguese replied with a smile: "It's normal, you can see which media it is? Aspen, of course, helped Real Madrid speak."
"Double standard!" Messi scolded angrily, "When the Real Madrid superstars won the Golden Ball, why didn't they get a stamp in the national derby? Why is Su Dong going to fight now, and they have to be stamped in the national derby? ?"
Looking at his appearance, it seems that it is not Su Dong who is going to compete for the World Footballer and the Ballon d'Or, but him.
"Haha, Leo, you have to get used to it. When Barcelona succeeds in the future, the Dream 2 team really dominates La Liga and European football. Then the Catalan media can also ask Real Madrid's stars to come to the national derby to build a chapter."
To put it bluntly, it is a question of who has the right to speak.
Messi is quite boring in front of outsiders, but after getting to know him, you can find that he is not silent.
The so-called taciturn, that is to strangers, or simply put, people are not interested in chatting with you.
After Su Dong completed the last set of bench presses, he roared and sat up from the chair, sweating profusely all over his body.
As soon as he sat up, Su Dong stretched out his hand and scratched Messi's head.
"Don't think too much, Leo, when your opponent starts to care about you and it makes you feel very bored, it just begins to prove that he is not good enough, because there is never too much of a ruthless person. Nonsense, it's all direct!"
Su Dong's words suit Messi's appetite, and he can't stop nodding.
Yes, just start it directly and kill them!
After taking the towel and wiping the sweat from his face, Su Dong watched today's training evaluation with Nuno Cruz and Vito Scala, especially the evaluation of body and muscle strength.
"Sufficient preparation time is still necessary. Today is Friday, and the muscle strength has basically reached the best level. Take a good rest and recovery tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow will definitely not be bad!" Nuno Cruz said confidently .
They have all figured out a whole set of rules.
After following Su Dong for three years, Nuno Cruise knew more about Su Dong's body than he knew about his own body.
...
After the strength training, Su Dong began to relax with a foam roller accompanied by physical therapist Grant Downing.
Although it is relaxation training, it is still quite difficult.
For example, the plank support that Su Dong is currently doing is to use a foam roller to relax the muscles on the front, inner and outer sides of the thigh, which is to drive the body to move up and down through the force of the shoulder joint.
During the whole process, Su Dong performed very stably without shaking, which proves that his sense of balance and stability is quite excellent, and he was able to reach the level of Su Dong in terms of strength confrontation and speed explosion, and to balance his sense of balance. At this point, Messi looked at the Barcelona team and couldn't find a second person.
Puyol and Ronaldinho had tried before, but both failed.
But don't underestimate this training. Although it is just a training, it can reflect Su Dong's physical condition. It can be concluded that he can perform many technical actions that ordinary people cannot do on the court.
For example, he caused a lot of applause before, the Ronaldinho commercial film that changed direction and pulled the ball.
You must know that this kind of sudden stop and sudden change in the direction of breakthrough has very high physical requirements on the players, especially for a 1.95-meter giant like Su Dong, the requirements are even higher.
It can be said that with Messi's understanding of Su Dong, he will not be surprised no matter what kind of technical moves Su Dong makes on the court that are unbelievable to outsiders.
After completing the foam roller training, Su Dong was accompanied by Grant Downing for restorative training and muscle massaging.
Finally finished today's training.
At this time, on the kitchen side, the chef has prepared him for tonight's dinner according to Professor Paul Lacasco's recipe, and Messi is equally treated.
Recently, Messi has been following Su Dong for training and accommodation, and Su Dong did not even charge him.
The feeling of prostituting for nothing is cool, but prostituting Su Dong for nothing is not necessarily the case.
He is so hardworking and self-disciplined!
...
"how do you feel?"
After eating, Su Dong stuffed a sliced apple into his mouth with relish, and asked Messi with concern.
In the recent period of time, because of injuries and other reasons, Messi has basically been able to enter the squad in every game, and his performance among the young players in the team is quite good, which is commendable.
Although Giuli is back, Su Dong guessed that Rijkaard would still let Messi enter the squad.
As for whether or not to play, it depends on the situation of the game.
"Very good." Messi nodded.
He has been training with Su Dong and is quite satisfied with his state.
"Is this game really so important?" Messi asked suddenly.
In terms of points, even if Barcelona did lose the Clasico, they are still ahead.
But football is, after all, a game dominated by people, so the human factor is very important.
"When I was in Valencia, I heard a saying that the title of La Liga often depends on the victory or defeat of the national derby."
Su Dong's understanding of this is not just the six points in the two games, but the environment reflected behind the points.
For example, which team is in better shape, which team is stronger, which team's locker room is more united...
It is unrealistic to say that such a rumor of infighting suddenly broke out before the game.
Professional football is more than just a game, it is a war around a football game.
All-round war!
Barcelona's own problems can't be shied away, giving people a chance to take advantage of it, and that's what it deserves, especially those things of the management, not to mention now, long before Su Dong joined, it was already known in the streets.
But what giant team doesn't have these things?
If professional football is a Vanity Fair, then the giants are undoubtedly the center of attention.
But for any focus that is on the cusp of the limelight, there must be a drama of fighting for power and profit, which is inevitable.
The only difference is whose problem is more acute and cannot be concealed.
Su Dong stretched out his hand, patted Messi's head hard, and smiled slightly: "You will slowly understand a lot of things later, now you just need to work hard to play well, these things have nothing to do with you for the time being."
Messi seems to understand something.
He faintly felt that at his own level, he still couldn't get in touch with these things.

…………
The national derby is imminent, and the media on both sides have also started a war of words before the game.
Barcelona is at the top of La Liga and has a clear lead. The Catalan media is naturally rude to Real Madrid's visit, believing that Barcelona will teach Real Madrid a lesson at home.
But the media who support Real Madrid are not to be outdone. They believe that Barcelona has suffered a two-game losing streak in the last two rounds, and their morale is low. On the other hand, Real Madrid has won consecutive battles, especially the six-to-one rout of Albacete, showing an amazing state.
"In the past three seasons, Real Madrid has remained unbeaten at Camp Nou!" Aspen newspaper is full of confidence in Real Madrid's away trip, believing that the Galaxy Battleship will be able to continue the excellent record of the past three years.
This is also true, but in the past three national derbies held at the Camp Nou, Real Madrid's record is one win and two draws. Among them, the away score last season was 2 to 1, and the win was also very dangerous.
If the time is extended to four years, then the national derby record in the past four years is one win, two draws and one loss.
But Aspen is obviously playing word games to cheer for Real Madrid.
...
At Camp Nou last season, Ronaldo's goals helped Real Madrid take all three points.
This time, the Brazilian superstar is still the most watched focus of the Real Madrid team.
In an interview with the media, he said that he was able to win last season, and it is the same now, because Real Madrid's state has been adjusted, and the fans will not be disappointed.
For the game, Ronaldo believes that at home, Barcelona, which has suffered a two-game losing streak, has more pressure than Real Madrid.
For Barcelona's players, Ronaldo gave a high evaluation, but he believes that the most threatening player in the Barcelona team is not his compatriot Ronaldinho, but Sudong.
"It's hard for me to imagine that he has only played 11 rounds this season and he has scored 15 goals. of."
"Su Dong's performance this season is almost crazy!"
"It can be seen that in order to get the highest honor, he has already fought hard!"
Ronaldo believes that around Sudong is a group of outstanding passers, such as Ronaldinho, Deco, Xavi, Iniesta, etc., all are very good assisting players, they create for Sudong There are plenty of one-on-one opportunities.
"Su Dong once said that by pulling the defenders away, in a one-on-one situation, he can kill any defender. He used fifteen goals to prove his strength and value. He is the most irreplaceable player in Barcelona. player of!"
Ronaldo believes that the biggest test for Real Madrid in the national derby is how to freeze Sudong in defense.
"He didn't score in the last round?"
"Believe me, this is even more terrifying, because I am also a dangerous striker, so I know that Su Dong at this moment is the most terrifying and the most hungry."
"If we want to win at Camp Nou, we have to do everything we can to freeze Sudong."
...
Not only Ronaldo, Marca, Aspen, El Pais... even major media around the world, when analyzing the upcoming national derby, will mention Su Dong invariably.
If Barcelona wants to win, they must create an environment for Sudong to exert their strength.
And if Real Madrid wants to win, they must freeze Su Dong!
Real Madrid coach Raymond said with confidence that Real Madrid is ready.
"In the last four rounds, we have only conceded one goal. I believe the problem of defense has been solved!"
