117 Bring the title back to the Bernabeu!(1/2)

On the evening of May 7th, Madrid’s Santiago Bernabeu Stadium.

In the thirty-seventh round of La Liga, Real Madrid faced Malaga at home.

Before the game even started, the atmosphere at the Bernabeu Stadium had already become extremely intense.

Not only because the championship has reached a feverish stage, but more importantly, this is the last home game of the season.

After tonight, there will be no more games at the Bernabeu this season.

This was also Zidane's last game at the Bernabeu.

As early as when the players were warming up, many fans had already arranged a huge portrait of Zidane in the stands. As the fans poured in, more and more fans held up Zidane's No. 5 jersey and slogans and shouted

Mentioning Zidane's name is full of reluctance for this legendary superstar.

In fact, Zidane did not play for Real Madrid for a long time.

He joined from Juventus in 2001, and it has only been five years now.

In fact, half of these five years were painful.

If Gao Shen hadn't taken over midway through this season, Zidane would have left the Bernabeu with regret and loneliness.

But now, he can hold his head high and welcome the fans' affection for him.

Few people can understand the feelings Real Madrid fans have for Zidane.

When it comes to superstars, Figo was the first to join; when it comes to reputation, Ronaldo joined with the World Cup championship and Golden Boot Award; when it comes to popularity and influence, Beckham has steadily surpassed Zidane;

Talking about relationships, Raul and Casillas are the leaders of Real Madrid’s youth training who were born and raised in Real Madrid…

But Real Madrid fans just love Zidane.

I like his elegance and calmness, his flash of inspiration, his every word and every move...

It's hard to understand this feeling, but I just like it.



When the Real Madrid players were warming up, Florentino, who had arrived at the Bernabeu early, stood in front of the box, silently watching Zidane in a daze inside the stadium.

No one knows how he feels at this moment, because he rarely expresses his truest emotions.

Once upon a time, Florentino's biggest wish was to create a star team.

He knows how professional football is played better than anyone else, and he knows the biggest advantage of a team like Real Madrid, so he created one of the best business systems in the world for Real Madrid, and in a very short period of time, Real Madrid earned an astonishing amount of money.

of wealth.

He wants to introduce the top superstars to every position in Real Madrid, so that this beloved team, from chairman to coach to players, will all be superstars, and then become the most unique and radiant legend in the history of world football.

But in just three years, his dream completely collapsed.

He personally sent Figo and Owen away, as well as Samuel. Now, it's Zidane's turn.

From the moment he stepped down, it was announced the end of Florentino's Galactico era.

The only thing that surprised him was that Gao Shen led Real Madrid to a strong recovery in such an incredible way.

Although, everyone can see that this is just a flash in the pan.

But this is already amazing enough.

Twenty-five years old, the age of genius.

The Chinese, the world’s largest football market.

He is profound, handsome in appearance, and has a sunny temperament. He is a high-quality idol.

No matter how you look at it, this is a head coach who is very interesting, has commercial value, and is attractive to the media.

Many people outside have criticized the profound conservatism, but Florentino has asked Valdano, consulted Sacchi and Di Stefano and others, and also learned from Butragueno, all those who know football.

, no one accused him of being conservative.

Many people even think that he is already considered radical.

His only weakness is that his experience is not rich enough and his abilities are not mature enough. He still needs to hone his skills.

Florentino has always wanted to talk to Gao Shen, but he hasn't found a chance yet.

But now, he suddenly realized that maybe he should change his mind.

The reason why he is interested in Gao Shen is that he thinks Gao Shen can revive the Galaxy Battleship.

But Figo and Owen are gone, Zidane is about to retire, and Ronaldo doesn't know how long he can stay. Is there still a Galactico?

When thinking of this, Florentino couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart and feel a little sad.

The Galactic Battleship sank. Is it necessary for him, the captain, to make a comeback?



Gao Shen seemed to have known for a long time that Real Madrid fans would prepare a farewell ceremony for Zidane.

So he specially arranged for Zidane to start.

Not only Zidane, he also arranged for superstars to start.

The goalkeeper is Casillas, the defense is Felipe, Helguera, Ramos and Arbeloa, the double midfielder is Gravesson and Guti, and the frontcourt is Raul, Zidane and Beckham.

Well, the lone striker is Ronaldo.

Almost all of them are Zidane's teammates who have played alongside him for many years.

Only twenty-four seconds into the game, Beckham sent a cross from the right. Zidane took advantage of the situation and passed the ball into the penalty area.

Ronaldo shrewdly got rid of the defender and broke in to form a one-on-one shot.

But unfortunately, the opponent's goalkeeper Ernault made a decisive attack and saved the ball, resolving Real Madrid's first attack.

In the third minute, Felipe passed the ball from the left, and Raul shot furiously, but was saved by the goalkeeper again.

A minute later, Zidane also kicked a powerful and heavy long-range shot from the right side of the penalty area, which slightly missed the near corner.

Real Madrid, filled with superstars, faced Málaga, which had already been relegated early, at the Bernabeu. They launched a continuous and powerful offensive, pinning Málaga within the half court and unable to move at all.

The Real Madrid fans at the scene also shouted very enthusiastically.

It felt like returning to the peak season of the Galacticos, returning to the atmosphere where the superstars performed as they pleased. The superstars on the court unleashed their talents to their heart's content, and the fans in the stands unleashed their talents without any scruples.

out their passionate cries.

This is a wonderful memory!

It is a lifetime memory for countless people!

When the game reached the 22nd minute, Beckham sent a direct pass from the right. Raul crossed into the penalty area and stopped the ball first. He was tackled to the ground from behind by the Malaga defender.

The referee blew the whistle without hesitation, issued a yellow card warning, and gave Real Madrid a penalty kick.

Raul grabbed Ronaldo's hand and climbed up from the ground, but did not go to the penalty spot, but went straight to Zidane.

In an instant, the entire Bernabeu was boiling again.

Real Madrid fans are very satisfied with captain Raul's move.

Zidane should indeed be given a goal tonight!

For no other reason than to thank him for his contribution to Real Madrid and the happiness he has brought to Real Madrid fans in the past few years!

Zidane wanted to decline politely, but after the fans at the scene praised Raul, they all shouted his name.

With such momentum, even Gao Shen, who was standing on the sidelines, couldn't help but applaud vigorously and shouted loudly for Zidane to take the penalty kick.

Other teammates also encouraged Zidane.

Within the Real Madrid team, Zidane's popularity is still very good.

The French finally reached the penalty spot, placed the ball, retreated slowly, took a quick run-up, and won in one fell swoop.

One to zero!

The whole place was excited again!

But Zidane did not celebrate. Instead, after scoring the penalty kick, he stood there with his head raised.

The live TV camera zoomed in very close, and you could vaguely see him holding back tears, while the surrounding Real Madrid players had rushed over to celebrate this memorable goal for him.

Many fans at the scene saw this scene through the big screen, and they were all affected.

As early as half a year ago, they already knew that Zidane was about to leave them.

But when they actually came to the moment of separation, they realized how reluctant they were to leave.

In the past two or three years, they have scolded Zidane a lot because he did not perform well, he is older, and he is no longer the Zidane he used to be.

But now, they all regret it!



This game against Malaga is actually more like Zidane's farewell game at the Bernabeu.

The visiting team has good strength, but it is far behind Real Madrid.
