The Day I Played with Ronaldo

As a defender, I think Ronaldo is the kind of striker you don't want to face at any time, because he has the possibility of miracles at any time. — Costacurta

"Both of you, report to the first team tomorrow." While speaking, Rojas kept paying attention to the expressions of the two.

Unlike Riko who was ecstatic and kept saying "thank you, thank you", Ricardo's expression was indifferent, and he just gave an "en", as if he had heard something just and right.

"Arrogant," thought Rojas. When you get to the first team, you will understand the gap between yourself and a real professional player. At that time, your confidence was destroyed, are you still willing to continue on the path of football?

There are tens of thousands of teenagers who love football, and they are one in a million who can enter the club echelon. When entering the U18 echelon, only one of the ten echelon players will be left.

Entering the U18 echelon is equivalent to entering the career hall? Don't think so. How many well-known players in the giants U18 now have no ball to play, so they can only find a job with peace of mind and play amateur games!

"Ricciardo, the punishment for you is not over. When you reach the first team, you are still training alone, understand?" Rojas' voice became severe.

"Okay, sir." Ricardo said helplessly.

To Roxas's ears, he was weak and unmotivated.

"Hmph. Let's go." Rojas turned around.

Rico put his arms around Licardo's shoulders excitedly: "Haha, times are turning! Maybe we will soon be able to play in the first team, get a professional contract, and become a star! Let's go, let's celebrate!"

"No, Rico, I still need to practice more." Licado said with a smile.

Rico's expression crossed, his thick lips grew, revealing his white teeth, in stark contrast to his dark skin. "why?"

"Because I'm Ronaldo's younger brother," Ricardo joked solemnly, "so I can't embarrass my brother. From now on, I will practice more every day."

The second half of the sentence is true.

Rico couldn't understand, but he still blessed Ricardo and left first. He couldn't wait to tell his family and friends about being selected for the first team.

Licado went to the gym, his exercise has not reached the standard today. He still has a long way to go if he wants to train a strong body that can reduce injuries without losing flexibility. What's more, he is only 16 years old at this time, and his body is not yet mature, so exercise must be controlled and scientific.

While Ricardo was sweating profusely on the exercise equipment, Rojas walked in with a small notebook in his hand.

Seeing Licado, he froze for a moment, and blurted out: "Why don't you go back?"

Ricardo responded with a smile, and said calmly: "I want to become an excellent professional player, and extra training is a must."

Rojas was silent for a while, he had to admit that the child's expression now made him feel happy. This is the expression that a self-motivated child should have.

But he still put on a straight face: "You are still young, your body has not yet formed, you can't over-train! Be obedient, go back!"

Ricardo showed a charming smile: "Thank you for your advice, Mr. Rojas, but I will be measured and will not let myself be overtired. Please trust my professionalism."

Trust your professionalism? I'm afraid I believe in ghosts. You are not even a professional player, you are still professional!

Rojas didn't bother to complain. However, he felt that Ricardo shouldn't have the willpower to train more every day, and he shouldn't be able to use up his body. And from tomorrow on, Ricardo will not be under his control. So he just nodded and walked away in silence.

After finishing the equipment training, Licardo ran to the training field again, fiddled with some equipment, and practiced high-speed dribbling and passing. He was stuck on time, not letting himself be too tired, and wanted to achieve the best training effect.

These training equipment in Sao Paulo are still too old. No, the training equipment in the whole world is relatively old now.

However, this is the era, and Ricardo can only adapt.

In the evening, Licado took a shower, changed his clothes, and prepared to go home. The Ericsson mobile phone in his pocket lighted up slightly. He took it out and saw that there were several missed calls and several unread text messages.

"Ricardo, why didn't you answer the phone——Julia."

"Riccardo, if you don't answer the phone again, I will ignore you.—Julia."

"I really need you, call me back. -Julia."

"Bastard! Go to hell!—Julia."

Luo Nan stuffed the phone back into his pocket expressionlessly.

Julia is a little girl whom the original owner dated, and a classmate of Stella. The two of them had a hot day and broke through the final limit.

But Ricardo didn't intend to accept the original owner's order. He is ruthless when it comes to women. In his life, only football is the most important. So he can't maintain a long-term relationship with a woman at all.

chasing women? Too much trouble, too much time wasting, it is better to watch the game.

Go shopping, watch movies, chat with your girlfriend? It's too much trouble, too much time wasting, it's better to play football.

Therefore, after several breakups in his previous life, he stopped dating. When he had a physical need, he would find a small model or celebrity who needed him for a while, or go to a nightclub to hook up with one. Although he has experienced countless women, he has never really been attracted to anyone except his first love.

His enthusiasm is all focused on football, and he has no interest in running a family, getting married and having children.

...

The next day, Ricardo rushed to the training ground of the first team. He found the locker room without much effort - the original owner had sneaked here once.

After entering the locker room, he realized that he was not the first to arrive.

A handsome and young face, like a god descending from the earth, appeared in front of him with a bright smile.

"Kaka! Hello!" Licado greeted first with a smile. After all, Kaka is now a big star.

"Hello, Ricardo!" Kaka responded enthusiastically. He was injured and couldn't participate in training. Today he came here specially to welcome Ricardo. "I heard that Ronaldo's brother is coming to the first team. I was so excited last night. Not asleep. Your brother is my idol!"

"He is also my idol. He doesn't belong to this planet. He is the best football player ever." Ricardo was very happy to meet Ronaldo fans here, and cooperated with Kaka to boast.

Fans say good things about their idols together, and they will soon become acquainted.

When other people came in, what they saw was Kaka and Licado talking and laughing. This scene did not make them feel surprised. Even the latecomers warmly greeted Licado.

However, Rico, who did not know when he arrived in the locker room, did not receive such treatment. He was almost forgotten in the corner...

People are realistic. Ronaldo is the number one star in the world, how many people want to have a good relationship with him but can't? Of course, these professional players would not give Licado any face. Hui would boast a few words and show goodwill, so it doesn't matter.

After all, not only Kaka, but Ricardinho, Cheney, Fabiano, Baptista and other Brazilian national team internationals or marginal internationals are all people who want to hug Ronaldo's thigh.

Therefore, Ricardo, who was coldly received in the U18 youth team, was warmly welcomed by the team bosses on his first day in the first team... although he has not yet shown his strength.
