Chapter 18: Popular person

Salado also looked directly at the big screen, although the picture on the big screen had already been switched to other people, but he didn't seem to wake up from the state of absent-mindedness just now.
Just now, he saw his "enemy of life" Meli Banega walk straight towards his "enemy of the year" Hulay, and the two of them didn't know what they said.
But he could see that Melly had a faint smile on his face, and his face changed without saying a few words.
Then Hu Lai suddenly laughed.
The exchange between the two parties soon ended.
No one knows what the two of them said and why it caused the expressions of the two to change so much.
Salado is very curious now, what on earth Meli and Hu Lai talked about.
And it was Hu Lai that Meili took the initiative to find!
You must know that Salado himself, in the La Liga where he played against Melly, has never spoken to Melly, let alone let Mellie take the initiative to find himself...
In Salado's mind, if Melly could really take the initiative to communicate with him before the game, he would definitely regard it as Meli's recognition of him, which meant that Melly regarded him as an opponent!
At the thought of this, Salado's eyes suddenly widened-doesn't that mean... Does Meli regard Hu Lai as his opponent? !
Damn it!
How can he do this? !
Obviously it's me first...
Huh, that's not right...
Fortunately, Salado's saneness still existed. He suddenly realized that it was actually not his own first-at the Madrid Olympics two years ago, Meli seemed to have played against Hulay before him, and... he lost!
Salado suddenly remembered this old thing.
The 2024 Olympic Games will be held in Madrid, the capital of Spain.
At that time, although Mario Salado had a record of appearances in La Liga, he had few chances and never met the Madrid Kings. Most of the time he trained and played with the youth team.
So he couldn't fight Meli earlier than Hu Lai.
After that game, he read the news and learned that the Argentine Olympic team with Meli Banega failed to qualify for the group stage and was eliminated.
He still remembers how he couldn't believe it, thinking that he was watching "onion news"-this kind of spoof news would always tell a fake news the same as the real news, using the same reporting method as the real news. , Wording and arrangement, using an extremely serious way to make up a fake news. People who don’t know can be easily deceived.
But when all the news he saw that day covered the news that Melly was out of the Olympics and his dream of competing for the Olympic gold medal was shattered, he knew that this incident turned out to be true...
After remembering this, Salado suddenly understood why Meli wanted to find Hulay.
But……
Salado still feels a little unbelievable-Olympic games are only, the gold content and importance of Olympic football games are not even as good as the Europa League...
Just lost to Hu Lai at the Olympics, as to make Meli miss it for so long?

Hu Lai and Williams slowly walked into the venue, found their place and just sat down, they were suddenly photographed behind them.
He turned around and saw a grinning face and a Dutch sentence: "Hello, Hu. Xing asked me to say hello to you."
"Star?" Hu Lai was stunned, "Chen Xingyi?"
"Ha! Yes! Introduce yourself, Danny Drew, Amsterdam Sports, and the stars are teammates." The people behind took the initiative to reach out to Hu Lai.
After shaking hands with Hu Lai, he reached out to Williams who was sitting next to Hu Lai.
"Pete Williams." Williams introduced himself very simply.
"It's nice to meet you." Drew grinned, and then asked Hu Lai: "What did Meli tell you just now, Hu? Of course, if it's a secret, it's okay."
He raised his hands.
"There is nothing I can't say." Hu Lai told the truth, "He wanted to avenge me. Isn't it because I won him once in the Olympics? Well, you said this guy..."
Drew suddenly realized: "It turned out to be the grievance of the Olympic Games..."
Hu Lai thought that Drew was sitting behind him, but he didn't expect to be talking. There was someone next to him, and Drew got up and gave up his position when he saw it. Then he knew that Drew had come to greet him.
Drew, who stood up, smiled at the visitor: "Hi, Albertazzi."
The other person who was similar in height nodded, and simply replied: "Hi, Drew." Without saying any more, he took a seat on the chair where Drew had been sitting just now.
"I'm just here to say hello to you, it's to get to know you." If someone next to you is not good enough to continue the conversation, Drew patted Hu Lai on the shoulder, "I hope we can meet in the Champions League, Xing said you are very difficult to deal with. I look forward to playing against you."
After speaking, Drew greeted Williams again, then turned and left.
Williams watched Drew leave, turned his head and said to Hulay: "I know him, the super genius of the Dutch national team. He missed a goal against Meli in the World Cup... What did he talk to you?"
Hu Lai sighed: "It was also written to me..."
Williams looked at Hu Lai with a devilish expression.
Hu Lai saw what he wanted to say from his expression, and quickly explained: "It's true, I didn't make up."
"Damn it, Hu. Why didn't I find you so popular before?" Williams murmured.
"Is this popular? Pete? Do you have any misunderstandings about'welcome'?"
The two were arguing, and Hu Lai was slapped on the shoulder from behind.
He looked back and saw the tall man who had just sat down: "Get to know, Mauro Albertazzi."
The tall man spoke to Hu Lai in Italian.
Hu Lai smiled at Albertazzi: "Hello, hello, my name is Hu..."
"Hu Lai, I know you." Albertazzi nodded.
"Thank God, you didn't call me "Lai Fu"..." Hu Lai muttered to himself.
Albertazzi ignored Hulai’s complaints and continued:
It’s a pity that my team can’t participate in the Champions League and can only play in the Europa League. So there’s no way...but I think we will have a chance to meet on the court in the future. .At that time...you can't even think about scoring in my hands."
After speaking, he stretched out his big palm like a fan and handed it to Hu Lai.
Hu Lai looked at him like this and asked, "What are you doing?"
"Shake hands." Alberta said blankly.
Hu Lai sighed, and had no choice but to stretch out his hand and shook the opponent's big hand.
His hands are almost completely enclosed by the opponent.
Albertazzi nodded with satisfaction: "If you meet in a game one day, please do your best."
Hu Lai rolled his eyes. He didn't expect this Italian genius goalkeeper to be quite...secondary.
"All right..." he replied perfunctorily.
Albertazzi cared about his attitude: "Don't be so reluctant. Because if you don't go all out, you will lose. Do you like failure, Hu Lai?"
When Hu Lai saw the other party saying this, his face was a little serious: "No, I don't like it."
Albertazzi nodded: "I don't like it either, because losing means I lost the ball. I hate losing the ball."
Hu Lai was shocked: "Have you ever lost a ball in your career?"
Albertazzi didn't expect Hu Lai's brain circuit to be so unique. His emotions were caught off guard and destroyed, and his serious image disappeared. He stared at Hu Lai: "How is it possible?!"
"Then you haven't lost depression for so many years...it's really not easy..."
Albertazzi was speechless for a while, his words stuck in his throat, and he didn't know what to say next.
He looked at Hu Lai, who was staring at him with sincere doubt, took a deep breath, and tried to calm his emotions. The face was replaced with the calm and calm expression before: "Anyway, if I meet you, I won't let you score a goal."
Hu Lai said: "Then I can pass the football to my teammates and let them score. Tell you that I will assist my teammates!"
"Then I don't care, anyway, you don't want to score with me." Albertazzi said.
"It's not big brother...I didn't offend you before, did I?" Hu Lai was particularly puzzled about where Albertazzi came from, and would rather let his teammate score goals than let him score.
Albertazzi smiled slightly: "The striker and the goalkeeper were originally a pair of mortal enemies. Besides, you grabbed my'three ball'."
"Honestly...you can't get it without me, right?" Hu Lai opened his hands.
The smile on Albertazzi's face condensed slightly, and then he snorted: "Anyway, you are ready to face me and not score a goal, Hu Lai."
After speaking, he retracted his entire body, leaned back on the chair, looked up at the direction of the stage, and stopped paying attention to Hu Lai.
Hu Lai also turned around.
Williams asked him: "Don't tell me that Albertazzi will also slap you down..."
Hu Lai glanced at him, shook his head and said, "Not this time."
"Oh..." Williams was obviously relieved, and then asked: "Then what did you talk about?"
"He said he admired me very much and said that I was his idol, so he came to shake hands with me..."
Williams widened his eyes: "Really?"
"You are a puppy!"
Williams looked at Hu Lai with a sincere face and frowned: "Forget it, you still say that Albertazzi will write down the battle to you..."
"Tsk, why don't you believe me, Pete? Really, Albertazzi said he grew up watching me play football..."
Williams ignored him and just muttered: "I should ask Delphine if he can speak Italian..."

The award ceremony was very tight and lively.
This award has been awarded for so many years, and everyone is familiar with the process. And unlike the FIFA World Player of Football Awards, there are many cultural performances.
The European Ballon d'Or is the main focus of professionalism and authority. Naturally, it is also here during the awards ceremony, emphasizing professionalism, and don't engage in those fancy things to attract attention. In this way, we can create a "prize design" unique to the Golden Globe Awards.
In fact, they have indeed received good results by doing so. Now when everyone mentions the European Golden Globes, they think of labels such as "professional" and "authority".
The only entertainment attribute may be the occasional gag between the male host and the beautiful host.
The awards went to various companies.
Of course, Li Qingqing did not win the Best Female Footballer Award in Europe. It was the American palace-level female footballer Annabel Evans who played for the London Bridge Women’s Football Team. The superstar who won the Women’s World Cup twice last season Helped London Bridge to win the Women's Champions League and the Women's Premier League, so it deserves this honor.
This is why the Chinese media do not think that Li Qingqing can get the best player, because the opponent is too strong...
But there are also surprises:
Although Li Qingqing did not win the Women's Football Golden Globe Award, she stood out from the five-man shortlist and finished third and won a bronze ball award.
This is also the highest personal honor she has received in her career.
The men's football best player award is the highlight, the finale.
For this reason, it is the best young player award.
There is no difference from what the media previously guessed: Hulay, who played for Leeds United, won the European young player award last season.
In the polite and warm applause, Hu Lai in a formal suit got up from his seat and walked onto the stage.
Then took the golden ball trophy the size of the third ball.
Countless eyes fell on him, meaning different things.
Mario Salado, Mauro Albertazzi and Danny Drew have sharp eyes, longing and fighting spirit.
The figure standing on the stage seemed to be a mountain waiting for them to climb.
These proud children in their respective countries and clubs felt a great sense of crisis.
Their group of geniuses from a well-developed area of ​​football lost to a man from the far east. And this person hadn’t heard of this before he was twenty...
It’s as if they were smashing their heads for this prize~EbookFREE.me~ Suddenly a stranger quickly overtook the car from the side, and then easily took away the trophy they dreamed of, and then walked away, leaving a bruised nose They stared with big eyes.
All the grievances and grievances before this time can be thrown aside, everyone is the same hater, first grab the trophy from that kid!
When the young players stared at Hu Lai secretly and spontaneously, Li Qingqing, who was sitting on the other side, looked at Hu Lai with a smile, thinking of the first time she saw Hu Lai.
In the sunset, a clumsy teenager chasing football.
Now I finally stand on this stage, although it's only the number three ball...
But Li Qingqing is still happy for him.
Congratulations, Hu Lai!
One day, the number three ball will become the number five ball!
come on!
