Chapter 134 Are all professional football players so rich?

(Oh no, I didn’t expect that I had written it a bit too deeply and tediously, so I’m still going to insert chapters… Don’t get me wrong, I’m just going to continue with the previous theme and title that is not about football matches, and the timeline is still going along. The title of the next chapter will definitely be restored to Sevilla’s Advancement, next)

The next morning, at around 9 o'clock, Ricardo was doing strength training in the gym at home when he heard the doorbell ring.

When I opened the door, I saw Eva wearing a black silk low-cut shirt and a wine-red hip-wrapped short skirt. Today, her round legs were wearing a pair of coffee-colored stockings. She was holding a pile of documents in her arms, which just covered her cleavage...

When Ricardo entered the room, he noticed that Eva's hair was still a little wet, because she had just taken a shower in the morning. And the light makeup she put on today didn't seem to completely cover the slightly swollen eye bags due to lack of sleep. Did she not sleep well last night? Was she excited or nervous? Not really? Just a safety precaution...

It is estimated that this girl probably didn’t even have breakfast.

Ricardo first arranged Eva to sit at the kitchen table, and served her the seafood and multi-grain porridge he had just cooked in the morning, which contained abalone, prawns, pork ribs, celery, black rice, oatmeal rice, black beans, coix seeds, carrots and other good things.

Leaving Eva to eat a nutritious breakfast, Ricardo apologized and hurried to take a shower and change clothes. He had just done strength training, and Ricardo was wearing a tights that exposed his figure. Coupled with the crystal sweat on his handsome cheeks and the male hormones in the air, Eva blushed...

Less than 5 minutes later, Ricardo, who had just finished washing up, came to the dining table while wiping his golden hair with a towel. He saw Eva licking the bottom of the bowl with a happy look on her face. Eva put down the big bowl and found that Ricardo was watching her licking the bowl. Her pretty face blushed again and she quickly explained: "Ah... I haven't had such delicious breakfast porridge for a long time..."

Ricardo couldn't help but smile: "There's more, have another bowl."

Eva quickly put the dishes into the sink. She didn't want to give Xiao Shuaiguo the impression that she was a foodie. She quickly said she was full, then pulled Ricardo to sit on the sofa, took out the plan, and started talking about insurance.

Next to the freshly washed young man, Eva was a little dazed again, her cheeks flushed again, and she quickly concentrated on the professional topic: "Ricardo, based on your situation, I have specially prepared health insurance, critical illness insurance and savings insurance for athletes for you...blah blah blah...do you understand what I mean? Or do you have any other questions?"

Ricardo looked at Eva's messy plan, thought for a moment, and gave an answer he had thought of last night: "Hmm... I don't think so. I'll just buy a high-end medical insurance with a coverage of 500 million euros and a critical illness insurance with a coverage of 2500 million euros. I'll choose the 20-year payment for the critical illness..."

Eva: "Well, this is a very good choice. It can protect against accidents and save some income for the future... Wait, how much coverage did you just say for critical illness insurance?!" (′?w?`)?

Fortunately, Ricardo had done his homework in advance, otherwise he would have been misled by Eva's chat: "You heard it right, 25 million euros."

Eva (O_O;): "Are you sure? You're adding a zero to my plan... More than 0 euros per year. Are all of you professional football players so rich?"

Ricardo smiled a bit evilly: "I am sure of the amount. Most football players don't have it, but I do." (?w＜)☆

Eva screamed: "Wow!" and threw Ricardo directly onto the sofa...?(?﹏??)

While hugging the handsome guy tightly with her full chest muscles, Eva said gratefully: "Thank you! Even if you are just trying to make me happy, I am very satisfied. You are my first insurance customer and you gave me such a big surprise..."

(＾??＾) Ricardo was almost bleeding from the nose due to the sudden softness and happiness... Then Eva hugged Ricardo's face and stared at him... Facing these big eyes full of spring and the charming red lips, it seems that there is no need to say anything more, right?

So the two of them went from talking about insurance at the dining table to communicating carefully on the sofa... and then they came to the bed for a more in-depth discussion... At the beginning, they were all dressed neatly, but later, in order to better understand the details, both sides met each other nakedly... (For the sake of love and harmony, thousands of words are omitted)

……

After training in the evening, Ricardo returned to the apartment and was still thinking about the afterglow of the young lady in the morning. The young lady really knew how to let go and be considerate. Knowing that Ricardo still had to train in the evening, she helped Ricardo clean up, and then took the initiative to leave in the afternoon, letting Ricardo take a nap, and rushed to the office to change the plan...

Just as Ricardo was brushing his teeth and preparing to punch in the code, the doorbell rang again.

After opening the door, Eva threw herself into Ricardo's arms again, threw away her high heels, threw her briefcase on the ground, and pushed Ricardo, who was shouting "toothbrush", onto the sofa: "Little handsome guy, forgive my recklessness. It's been almost two years since I last tasted meat. Hehehe... I haven't stayed in the clouds enough this morning. I still miss you so much tonight that I can only come to you to learn more..."

"Hmm...let me rinse my mouth first...hmm...wait a moment..."

Just tonight, Eva decided to resume her habit of taking vitamins for the sake of her divine horse. (For the sake of love and harmony, thousands of words will continue to be omitted...)

……

So this pair of neighbors who are passionate about each other followed Uncle Jimmy's script without any hesitation. It's not illegal for Uncle Jimmy to charge a little copyright fee, right?

Ricardo also successfully solved the problem of being alone during the week without his girlfriends.

Eva also found a new starting point in life, which was mainly to serve big clients well and make money, not to play with young men or have sex with young men...

It is a win-win situation for almost everyone, and no one loses!

……

So a few days passed quickly, and after the passion, Eva didn't have to climb to the peak dozens of times every day. Normally, she would do it three or four times a day, which was completely within Ricardo's ability without affecting training and competition. After all, he was still a young man with a lot of money.

On Saturday, accompanied by Eva, Ricardo underwent a physical examination required by the large insurance policy, signed the insurance contract, and paid the first installment of the insurance premium. Then, Ricardo traveled with the team to Madrid, and Eva returned to the small town on the outskirts of the city to accompany her parents and daughter.

It just so happened that Sevilla was going to play away this weekend, so Chiara didn't come either. So the scumbag Li felt at ease and planned to confess next week when he had a chance. Anyway, it would take another week or two for the insurance to be finally approved.

On Sunday evening, September 2006, 9 at 24 p.m., the fourth round of the 21/2006 Spanish Football League was underway. One of the focus matches of this round was the away challenge of league leader Sevilla to Atletico Madrid.

These two traditional La Liga powerhouses have been in the limelight recently. Sevilla has maintained a 12-game winning streak in all competitions, while Atletico Madrid defeated Athletic Bilbao 4-1 in the last round of the league.

In Sevilla's favor, they won 1 and drew 1 in two matches against Atletico Madrid last season, and won by 1 goal at Calderón Stadium. But in Sevilla's disadvantage, they will play the second leg of the UEFA Cup next week. However, they won the first leg by a large margin, so Juan Ramos decided to play with all the main players in this away game.

Atletico Madrid has no European matches this season, but will face the first leg of the Madrid derby next weekend. In addition, it is worth noting that in addition to the golden boy Torres, Atletico Madrid also has the young version of Aguero this season.

This season is Torres' last season before he goes to the Premier League. In July 2007, Torres will transfer to Premier League giants Liverpool and start a legend of his own.

In this game, both teams played their best and Atletico Madrid lined up a 4-4-2 lineup:

首发门将是25号弗朗哥，后卫线是由22号伊巴涅斯领衔21号佩雷亚、2号塞塔里迪斯和4号佩尼亚；中场则由11号马克西.罗德里格斯，5号卢辛，6号科斯蒂尼亚与17号彼得罗夫组成；双前锋是9号托雷斯与10号阿奎罗。

The characteristics of this lineup are that it is tough, fierce and especially good at grabbing the ball. In addition, the combination of the midfield and the backcourt plays a bit dirty... Before the game, the coaching staff gave special instructions to Sevilla's starting lineup, asking them not to act on impulse and not to fall into traps.

So Sevilla also sent out a relatively tough starting lineup, also 4-4-2:

The goalkeeper is Palop, the double central defenders are the tough captain Navarro and Escude, the double backs are Alves and Puerta; the midfield four are Navas, Poulsen, Renato and Adriano; the double forwards are Kanoute and Li Qi.

This season's Atletico Madrid has shown some of the shadow of the Iron Blood Legion of later generations. Their defense and fighting spirit are very fierce and difficult to deal with, especially in Atletico Madrid's home stadium, the UEFA 5-star stadium, the Calderon Stadium, which can accommodate spectators.

Sevilla has been on a winning streak this season and is in high spirits. Last season, they only missed the Champions League due to the win-loss record. This season, they are determined to make it to the Champions League zone, so the intensity of the game is second to none among many La Liga teams.

As a result, the game between the two sides was extremely intense from the start, with frequent physical confrontations and tackles. In the first half, both sides received a total of 9 yellow cards.

But in general, Sevilla still has a technical advantage, so the overall situation has been controlled by Sevilla.

The home team had only two threatening attacks in the first half. The first one was in the 15th minute of the game. Petrov made a cross and Torres headed the ball in the middle of the penalty area. After avoiding the goalkeeper, the ball was cleared by Danish midfielder Poulsen in front of the goal line.

The second time was in the 24th minute of the game. Maxi Rodriguez took a long shot from outside the penalty area. The ball hit the leg of Escud who was defending, deflected and bounced off the crossbar and flew out of the bottom line.

In addition, the forward line of Torres and Aguero found it difficult to break through Sevilla's very organized defense, and Poulsen in the defensive midfielder position also greatly eased the pressure on Sevilla's defense.

Sevilla's offense mainly relied on Li Qi's retreat and Navas and Alves' right-wing attacks, and they broke the deadlock in the 40th minute of the game.

Li Qi frequently retreated from the front line to participate in the competition and organization of the midfield, using his technical and physical advantages to help Sevilla win more than 60% of the ball possession rate in the first half. Before the end of the first half, Li Qi and Paulson once again teamed up to grab the ball from Costinha, who was too sticky, and then the former changed direction frequently to get rid of the counterattack of the Atletico midfield and sent a fatal counterattack pass to the right side...

Navas received the ball on the wing and made a straight run to avoid Peña's defense. He then passed the ball to Kanoute in the middle before center back Ibanez made his move.

After Kanoute got the ball, he paused for a moment at the edge of the penalty area and then passed it directly to Renato who was unguarded on the other side; the latter made a run from the back row and easily shot a low shot into the near corner of the goal 18 yards in front of the goal, hitting the target!

Sevilla successfully entered the halftime break with a score of 1-0...

In the second half, Atletico Madrid made a direct personnel adjustment, replacing Costinha, who made frequent mistakes in the first half, with Maniche.

Just 53 seconds into the second half, the situation on the field changed suddenly. Escudé fouled Aguero in a particularly critical defense and was sent off with two yellow cards. This immediately changed Sevilla's tactical layout.

Juan Ramos quickly replaced Renato with Dragutinovic to complete the back line, and arranged for Li Qi to retreat to the middle of the midfield to participate in the defense; Sevilla, with one less player, was determined to defend and counterattack.

Although the offensive and defensive momentum has changed, the retreating Sevilla still launched a counterattack effectively.

Around the 60th minute of the game, Li Qi triggered the breaking point and successfully performed a miraculous one-on-two defense. He predicted and intercepted Maxi Rodriguez's straight pass near the center circle, then turned half way and sent a long pass over the top.

In the counterattack, Kanoute successfully made an offside move and received a long pass from behind at the top of the penalty area, but he stopped the ball behind him, allowing Atletico's defender to catch up.

Seeing that he could not get rid of the defender in a short time, Kanoute decisively passed the ball to the open space on the wing... However, the ball was a bit too big and too close to the baseline; Navas, who came in from behind, shot at a small angle facing the goalkeeper's block, but unfortunately the ball went wide of the goal and hit the side net.

Sevilla missed the chance to expand the score. However, wasting opportunities will be punished. In the 65th minute, Sevilla suffered another heavy blow.

Navarro was in a one-on-one situation with Petrov on the wing. After being physically pushed past by Petrov, Navarro tackled Petrov from behind and knocked him down. The referee showed him a red card for a malicious foul. Sevilla had only 1 players left in the remaining 1 minutes!

Juan Ramos was helpless and had to replace Kanoute with defensive midfielder Mati; the three defensive midfielders in the midfield were used to defend the one-goal lead. Let Li Qi, Alves or Puerta do whatever they wanted in the counterattack, and delay the game as long as possible.

Due to the shortage of two people, Sevilla's midfield was exhausted just trying to intercept Atletico's attack, let alone counterattack. Especially on the right side where Alves was responsible, they were attacked by Maxi Rodriguez and Petrov in turn. Li Qi could only frequently fill in the position to assist in defense, often losing sight of one thing while focusing on another.

With the crazy running of Sevilla's midfield and backcourt and the goalkeeper's brave saves, they managed to hold on to the two-man disadvantage for 20 minutes. Atletico coach Aguirre replaced Ibanez with Mista in the 76th minute of the game, leaving only three defenders and playing a strong attacking formation with three forwards.

When the game reached the 85th minute, Alves, who had played in almost every game before, suffered cramps... Just when Juan Ramos urgently arranged for Hinkel to come on as a substitute, Sevilla, with only 8 and a half players left on the field, was finally breached by the home team.

Alves had just suffered a cramp and could only barely keep his position. His athletic ability was greatly limited and he could only be considered half a player.
