I Am Scouted by Real Madrid

Chapter 851: Chapter 77: All or Nothing (Part 2)

Of course, Casillas was still annoyed after the match: ”Because of your mistakes, the team did not win, which makes you feel very frustrated. We are indeed a bit angry, after all, we lost points. No one thought we would lose this match, we want to continue winning and are waiting to see the result of Real Sociedad versus Barcelona.”

Casillas talked about his mistakes again: ”We might have played a bit conservatively, and after my mistake, the match became more difficult. I certainly don’t like making mistakes, but we are human too, and sometimes we make errors.” Casillas set his sights on next week’s Champions Cup match: ”We will go to the away match with the belief of winning. The result of the first leg was indeed not beneficial to us, but anything is possible. Zaragoza once led us 3-1, in football, anything can happen. The Champions Cup final will be held one month later, and the teams participating in the finals have not yet been decided. Any of the four teams have a chance to participate.”

Saturday’s Marca also claimed that Chen Zhong and Real Madrid chairman Florentino would become the two flags of Real Madrid overcoming Barcelona, and the two would mobilize Real Madrid players to ”stage a miracle at Camp Nou.”

Florentino will lead 16 senior members of the club ”to the battle” at Camp Nou, while Chen Zhong also shared with teammates the magical experience of Real Madrid winning the 9th Champions Cup with a 2-0 victory at Camp Nou to motivate his teammates.

Marca reported that the spirit of Juanito has transformed into the spirit of Chen Zhong and Florentino.

Real Madrid’s president and captain have taken on the responsibility to dispel the pessimistic atmosphere that shrouds the team, they will play the role of the Real Madrid comeback flag.

With the battle at Camp Nou approaching, Real Madrid Club is fully mobilized, the game against Zaragoza is clearly just an insignificant match, a walkthrough match. Real Madrid’s chairman told his subordinates: ”For the match against Barcelona, we will all go, because we want to make a comeback, Real Madrid must do everything possible to complete the comeback.”

Originally, only 10 senior members planned to go to the away game, but ultimately Florentino requested that all 16 senior members go to the away match to cheer.

Florentino aims at Camp Nou, the club has already learned of the chairman’s directive: ”We can advance, and the history of Real Madrid Club also forces us to advance. Historically, Real Madrid has had many epic nights.” Seeing the club chairman be so confident, the club naturally feels motivated.

Florentino now doesn’t want to mention Pepe’s red card and Barcelona players’ forgery, as well as mutual accusations between the two clubs, he just wants to talk about football, he hopes players can concentrate, give all, and write the brightest page in club history.

Chen Zhong has well understood Florentino’s spirit. Real Madrid’s captain in the locker room called for players to unite and conquer Camp Nou, ”We must believe in miracles!”

Marca stated that after digesting the sadness of losing at home, Real Madrid players are now ready to complete revenge on the away field. No Real Madrid player believes the team has lost the knockout round, Casillas reminded teammates that in 2002, Real Madrid had a 2-0 victory at Camp Nou, and in the end, the team won the club’s 9th historic Champions Cup. Casillas hopes to use this as an example to inspire teammates to complete the impossible comeback.

In fact, besides that match, Real Madrid has had multiple victories of two goals or more at Camp Nou, and also, Mourinho being unable to command from the sideline might not be a bad thing for Real Madrid, because this season Mourinho missed two games, and as a result, Real Madrid won both games under Kalanca’s direction.

Moreover, the octopus ’Iker’ also predicts that Real Madrid will participate in the Champions League final.

The two teams have various tactics emerging, on May 2, UEFA’s disciplinary committee will hold an emergency meeting in Nyon, Switzerland, to analyze the series of disputes arising from Real Madrid’s home game against Barcelona in the Champions League semi-finals.

UEFA will thoroughly examine all accusations Real Madrid made against Barcelona.

According to Catalonia Radio, Real Madrid Club has requested UEFA to impose a one to two-game suspension penalty on seven Barcelona players, the reason Real Madrid put forward is that Barcelona players have unsportsmanlike conducts, including diving and exaggerated reactions to Real Madrid fouls.

Among the players accused by Real Madrid, naturally, there is Alves who faked injury resulting in Pepe being sent off, and Busquets who had racist behaviors in the match, additionally, Pique, Mascherano, Keita, Pedro, and Messi are also among those accused by Real Madrid.

Furthermore, Real Madrid also asked UEFA to penalize Barcelona’s coach Guardiola, Bernabeu believes that Barcelona players’ behaviors stem from Guardiola’s pre-game arrangement.

According to Catalonia Radio’s news, Real Madrid’s fact of accusing 7 Barcelona players has been confirmed by Barcelona Club, Barcelona insists its players did not cheat, and before being accused by Real Madrid, they had already reported Real Madrid to UEFA’s disciplinary committee, Mourinho’s excessive remarks and Real Madrid Club’s behavior of not watering the grass as agreed are in Barcelona’s accusations list.
