Chapter 173：CHAPTER 202 - The Great War(2)

22 July.

Real Madrid returned to compete in the 4th Peace Cup, which will be relocated in Andalusia, Spain.

Peace Cup had a reputation for being recognized by the Korea Foundation as a soccer tournament hosted by FIFA and a regular international tournament.

The prize money was about 2 billion won, which was quite high considering La Liga's winning prize of 7 billion won.

For Real Madrid, who recently exchanged and cooperated with Asia, it was a good opportunity to gain momentum in the Asian market.

Their first opponent is Al-Ittihad Football Club.

As the oldest club in Saudi Arabia, it wasn't for fun.

July 25.

A news conference in Valdebebas just a day before the Peace Cup.

Scolari had an interview before the competition.

A reporter asked.

"It's still a non-season, but it's been a regular game since my first assignment. In addition, Real Madrid will be participating in the Peace Cup for the first time this year. What do you think?"

"I am very fortunate to be able to serve as a manager on such a team. Because we have great players and coaching staff. Running and overseeing these teams at the same time is not as easy as you might think. But we will do it well. And while Peace Cup is not a global competition, I think this will be a springboard for Asia. I hope we can lift the trophy and bring peace to the world. "

So I wanted to make the interview peaceful.

But it didn't last long.

"You have had non-season training for the last two weeks, and I have a question about that. According to the information, I heard there was some disagreement between the players. Is it about rumors that the team is split up between Woo-young and Ronaldo? And if so, I wonder what the relationship is. "

Scolari frowned.

I decided to take a formal interview, but I'm asking for something that's too hard for me.

"Choose where you are from or stop the pointless delusion. The hotel is completely isolated from the outside, so the only choice is the latter. 껄껄. "

Scolari laughed like a big brother.

He was very strict to himself and his players, but he was kind and generous externally.

I knew better than anyone how tired it would be to turn the press and back.

This was especially important for new directors.

If you make an enemy shortly after you came to Spain, it will be very painful.

"Will the first time Cristiano Ronaldo and Woo-young be sorted out at the same time?"

"If they were ready to go to the stadium, they could go out."

The question was resolved in a match against Al-Ittihad Football Club the next day.

[Wooho and Ronaldo are both sitting on the bench as submembers. Are you not ready to scramble both at the same time?]

[I do not know. You have to watch the game first. It may be replaced at the same time, or it may be that you want to hide it until the opening because it is a trump card.]

More than 30,000 spectators in the stadium were disappointed.

Despite the fact that it's an unheard of peace cup competition, I came to the stadium because I wanted to see a historical moment when two people were running at the same time.

Contrary to their wishes, however, Ronaldo and Woo Ho-young did not bounce until after the game.

The match was a light one-to-one win by Real Madrid, but it was a stimulus for the team.

'This is fine.'

But Scolari himself was not worried at all.

Because this was his style.

'I still need more time.'

If you send it out forcibly, and it seems that your breathing doesn't fit at all, it only caused controversy.

Isn't it faster to go slowly?

Moreover, there was still time until September, so I had to watch it leisurely and earnestly.

Since there is no foundation to build a building, there is a possibility of a collapsed Buddha.

Once tomorrow, Ronaldo and Woo-young were to be put in different time zones to watch the progress.

The competition went well.

Scolari provided opportunities for a variety of players, and Woo Ho-young and Ronaldo played one game each.

As a result, it was easy to advance to the finals by holding LDU Quito and FC Porto in a row.

The final opponent was EPL's traditional Aston Villa Football Club after beating Juventus in the semi-finals.

The match took place two days later on August 2 at La Cartuja Estadio in Seville.

On the day, like the finals, the psychological warfare between the two teams came before the match.

That was the unexpected starters.

[This moment finally came. It would be the moment soccer fans in the world have been counting.]

[Yes. I waited for this day too. Woo Ho-young and Ronaldo, who have been on the starting list, aren't the only ones looking forward to see how they will be.]

An hour before the match, Real Madrid's starting list included both names.

The crowd enthusiastically shouted.

[I'd like to see quickly how much Scolari has been hiding to show how great a game he is.]

[That's right. Didn't you have a lot of disagreements because of that? I hope you'll blow them all up on this occasion.]

The game started about an hour later.

The atmosphere burned hot once more there.

[This is a huge squad. Ronaldo, Woo-young, Robben and Raul are in charge. Who can stop this attacker? It is not unreasonable to say that it is already the strongest in the world.

Real Madrid started off with a 4-2-3-1.

Ronaldo was placed on the left wing, Robben was placed on the right wing, and Raoul was placed on the frontmost saw.

It was a tactic that resolved the isolation of the one-top by breaking through the winger's center.

And its middle.

Woo-young was placed in the position of the attacking midfielder, which is the most important in 4-2-3-1.

His assignment was to Free-role.

'The director's expectation for me is that big.'

Ho Young was right.

Scolari wanted to make Woo-young Woo's team.

Pre-roll, which is the key to genius, mentality and ball management, was right for Woo.

And.

Took.

It was Ronaldo who caught the ball first.

[Ronaldo hits the ball and tries to break into the center.]

[At the same time, Marcelo digs into the vacancy with drastic overlapping from the back.]

Ronaldo has a dazzling personality against right-back Luke Young, allowing him time while Marcelo takes his place.

It was then.

Tuk, tuk.

widely!

"··· Oh my god!"

Cristiano Ronaldo's brilliant footwork! Peel Luke Young and try to break through!]

Ronaldo, who has faced Luke Young several times in the past EPL, opened up the space with bold play.

The action was a bit of a right footed shot.

Cuckoo!

But it did not lead directly to scoring.

[Brad Friedel's Miracle Save!]

[But the second ball is still alive!]

The players of the two teams rushed to the ball that was punched by the goalkeeper.

But before that, there was already one player there.

Woo Young.

Ho Young, who had settled in advance with excellent predictive power and position selection, shot without hesitation.

Cheongung!

[Go oh oh oh oh!]

Ronaldo's assist and Woo Ho Young score! This is a combination of Ronaldo and Woo Young! great!]

"downpour!"

When Ho-young ran in front of the stands, she was shaken as if an earthquake occurred.

Ronaldo, however, returned to his seat with an assist and a bitter look.

People doubted that they didn't celebrate scoring.

But Real Madrid's performance was undoubtedly great.

Ronaldo, Woo Young and Robben. I made the second line completely their stage.]

[That's right. The overlapping lines, the sum of the paths do not match well, or the skills of each other are not fully utilized yet, but they are still very powerful.]

Not delicate but clunky, but the power was enough to process.

Ronaldo, Woo-young and Robben.

All three men in the second line had a high speed, so Xabi Alonso in the rear had a good chance to go anywhere.

For Xabi Alonso, who played the role of chance maker while building a rear buildup, he was happy.

If only two lines of breathing and attacking were polished, he could have beat Barcelona's arsenal and become the best help king in Europe.

The strange thing was that more than 80% of his passes were being sent to Woo.

It wasn't just for a reason.

Just because you have more opportunities to spend it.

Percussion.

[Sabi Alonso delivers a low and fast pass.]

[Woo-young receives the ball neatly.]

Ho Young led the attack by treating it like a ball.

Whether Ronaldo catches the ball or Robben catches the ball, it is no exaggeration to say that the decisive offensive opportunity starts with Woo Young.

Ho Young's handling of the ball made it possible.

Holding the ball led the atmosphere, rolling the ball pushed and pulled the flow.

Aston Villa owned the ball without hesitation.

Rather, it created a space from pressure.

It was literally right to play with a ball.

[Woo-young, it seems like you're handling the ball with your hands.]

[How can you steal the ball with such fine control? To take it, you have to kick your knee and knock it down.]

[The more I see, the more I fall in love. It's like there's an ego in the ball. It's no wonder that Aston Villa loses motivation.]

There was no ability to properly press the good.

While Ho Young dominated the ball and space, Raul at the forefront coordinated the spacing and position of the players, leading to defensive errors.

The well-proven Ho-Wool Line showed strong breathing this time, driving Aston Villa to the edge of the cliff.

The game began to rush in from that time.

When spaces were created everywhere, Ho-young began to play artistic football like water met meat.

It wasn't the end there.

At the same time as playmaking, they attacked classically like Riquelme, and if it didn't work, they defeated their opponent's local defense with a speedy breakthrough like Kaka.

Aston Villa's defense was shocked by the ever-changing appearance.

[Who is that player, what is your role?]

[Freeroll, nothing more or less. Woo Ho-young suits that too. Freerolls can only be played by players who have great genius and good judgment.]

The role of Ho-young was not limited.

He became an attacker, became a midfielder, and, like Chameleon, constantly changed his play color and threatened his opponent.

It was literally freeroll itself.

It was then.

[Hu-young, look at Archen Robben, going from the right to the center.]

[Roben is busy moving to get a pass.]

However.

Percussion!

[Roving Pass delivered to Ronaldo! Ronaldo takes it to the chest! It wasn't Robben!]

Ronaldo shoots the ball into the box and shoots at a fast timing.

Cheongung!

It's a gun that popped up so easily.

Ronaldo's first goal and assist of Ho Young.

Ronaldo, who scored, was confused about whether football was so simple and easy.

It feels like everything is flowing in a certain order.

It was similar to what I felt when I joined United for the first time and joined Paul Scholes and Ryan Giggs.

With him seemed to be able to make tremendous progress.

Ronaldo had already won the Ballon d'Or peak, but he was open to growth.

'I grow as much as he grows.'

Ronaldo finally thought so.

But that did not mean the end of the competition.

Competition will continue to grow them.

"after!"

Ronaldo was thrilled all over his body, pushing his thumb out as he looked at Hoyoung.

Ho-young looked at Ronaldo and smiled.

Ronaldo was a good contender, though he was a competitor.

Colleagues to grow themselves.

[Potential (SS + 2)]

This was the potential he got from Ronaldo, who was satisfied with his team's ability to play simultaneously with the Peace Cup.

Following the sense of view, other talents could be integrated soon.

Beep-

The match ended with Real Madrid's victory.

In the second half, the Agbonlahor-Ashley Young combination was swept away, but Woo-Young and Ronaldo scored an additional five-to-two victory.

That day, Ho Young was able to grow the sense of the ball, not only by Ronaldo, but also by talents related to the sense of the ball from Ashley Young and Stewart Downing.

It was the beginning of full-scale growth.

Moreover, there was no end.

"Young, are you free tomorrow?"

The leader of the stadium, Mijatovi?

"Di Stefano is coming back from her vacation tomorrow. I want to see you separately. "

Honorary Chairman Alfredo Di Stefano was supposed to meet Ronaldo first.

His mind was on Hoyoung.
