The noise after the game has nothing to do with Ricardo. He has already flew to Germany with Ronaldo and Adriano. ┏Ⅹ④③⑨⑨┛
They will meet with Brazil in Germany to prepare for the Confederations Cup.
Their first match in the Confederations Cup group stage will be played on the evening of June 16th, four days after the first round of the Italian Cup.
Ricardo waited until the official registration on the afternoon of June 13, leaving little time for the team to run in.
But the Brazilian is still optimistic about his team winning.
In their opinion, this is one of the best Brazilian teams in history, no less inferior to those led by Bailey, Galincha and Zico, Falcao, Socrates and so on.
Compared to the 2002 World Cup winning lineup, Ronaldo and Ronaldinho are more mature; although Rivaldo has faded out, three more geniuses like Ricardo, Adriano and Kaka have been added.
Although Robert Carlos and Cafu, two world-class full-backs, went on vacation and did not join the national team, the star list is still star-studded.
No. 1 Dida, No. 2 Maicon, No. 3 Lucio, No. 4 Roqueñol, No. 5 Emerson, No. 6 Gilberto, No. 7 Ricardo, No. 8 Kaka, No. 9 Ronaldo, No. 10 Ronaldinho, No. 11 Roberto, No. 12 substitute goalkeeper Marcos, No. 13 Sisinho, No. 14 Juan, No. 15 Louison, No. 16 Leo, No. 17 Gilberto Elva, Juninho 18, Renato 19, Adriano 20, 21 is Ricardo's former teammate in São Paulo, and Baptista is now acquired by Real Madrid, 22 Robinho, 23 is the substitute goalkeeper Gomez.
Pereira is probably exhausting his thoughts for this list, not only to allow the "old" generals including Kaka, Ronaldinho, Ricardo and others to have a chance to run in, but also to make some newcomers feel the national team. Atmosphere, but also to visit several marginal internationals for the World Cup next year.
With such a lineup, Brazilian fans naturally want to shout the slogan of "winning."
Of course, it is not to say that it is necessary to win the Confederations Cup. Isn't this championship in hand? Fans are talking about defending the World Cup in 2006.
The Confederations Cup, in the eyes of the football powers, is generally a chicken-like existence. But this time, in order to prepare for the 2006 World Cup, countries have sent their main lineups.
Although the heat is not as good as the World Cup, the European Cup, the America's Cup, but reporters still flock.
The two teams with the highest odds of winning the title are defending champion Brazil and host Germany.
Under the leadership of Klinsmann, the German team began to upgrade the project. Barak, Podolski, Deisler, Mertesacker and other teams became the main force of the team, making this German team look vibrant. , While retaining the original spirit of iron and blood, also added some technical and delicate play.
The Brazilian team needless to say, this kind of staffing is bound to be a favorite.
King Ronaldo, world-class Ricardo, Adriano, Kaka, world-class Ronaldinho, world-class Emerson, Ze Roberto, Lucio, Dida, and so on A team with world-class players on three lines, no matter how high it is.
Besides, there is also Baptista, who shined in La Liga, Robinho, who has gained popularity in the domestic league and is about to be acquired by Real Madrid, is fully capable of taking over Cafu's class. Maicon, there are Roch Juniol, Gilberto, Gilberto Silva and other powerful players.
The biggest trouble for Pereira now is how to arrange the appearance lineup.
Especially the frontcourt. Ronaldo, Ricardo, Adriano, Kaka, Ronaldinho, five attacking talents, it is impossible to play at the same time. But the weakest of them is also world-class. Other countries are core players. It is too wasteful to play substitutes.
Moreover, Pereira wanted to examine the status of Robinho, Baptista, Junior Juninho and others.
No matter what he does, it is impossible to satisfy everyone.
On the 15th, a day before training against the European champions Greece, Pereira still discharged his favorite 442 formation. Forwards Ronaldo and Ricardo, with midfielders Ronaldinho, Kaka, Emerson, Ze Roberto; defenders are Gilberto, Lucio, Roqueñol and Sisinho.
Poor Adriano, who just performed a hat-trick in the Italian Cup final, can only sit on the bench.
There is courage and confidence to put the peak Adriano on the bench, and there are only two teams in the world at all times: Inter Milan and Brazil.
If he goes to any other team, it is well deserved.
However, Adriano didn't show any strange emotions when he came off the bench. He was still laughing and joking with his teammates.
"Substitute Ronnie and Ricardo, don't be ashamed." This is what he said to Kaka.
After training, the players went to the hotel room to rest.
Ricardo and Ronaldo are still living in the same room. Ronaldo is playing poker on the computer, while Ricardo is watching a kicker, struggling with his poor German vocabulary.
Suddenly the door rang, and Ronaldo said without looking up, "Come in."
Ricardo turned his head and saw Adriano walk in in despair. He said nothing, sitting on the bed with a **** in his face when he came in, his expression was stunned.
"What's wrong?" Ricardo put down the magazine.
"My dad is dead." Adriano's lips moved slightly, his eyes were blank, and he still seemed afraid to confirm the news.
Ricardo now felt empathy. In the last life, he also experienced the pain of bereavement.
He sat next to Adriano and patted his shoulder: "When is it going?"
"Just now, my family called me," Adriano said blankly. "The last time I saw him, I was fine. Why did I go there suddenly? Was someone pranking me?"
Ricardo didn't know what to say. He has a negative emotional intelligence and doesn't know how to comfort people. After thinking about it, he said, "If you ask Mr. Pereira for a vacation, let's go and see."
"Already asked for leave, but I dare not go." Adriano buried his face in his hands, and the 1.89 strong man sobbed, tears flowing down his fingers. "If I don't go, Dad will Still there, but if I go and see him, I ca n't believe that such a thing would happen, oh oh, I have made a lot of money, and a lot of money can make him live a good life. "
Ronaldo also left the computer came to Adriano, gently touched his bald head, and said in a low voice: "Sorrow, Ade, your father is beloved by the Lord, he is now Looking at you in heaven and smiling at you, you need to cheer up quickly. "
"Cheer up and do what?" Adriano sighed. "I don't want to do anything now, I just want to drink. Ronnie, go with me!"
Seeing how Ronaldo seemed to agree, Ricardo interposed quickly and said, "What you need now is not alcohol, but to dress yourself properly and make a final farewell with your father. Ad, what does your father expect you to be? Man? I ask you, do you remember? "
Adriano looked up and said with red eyes, "He wants me to be the best star in the world, the happiest person, a credible and responsible man."
"Don't let him down, Ad, go and be the one he expects you to be. Be a real man and bravely face sadness."
Let's talk about new and new
