Chapter 1854 A heavy punch in the face

"...In the second leg of the Champions League quarter-finals that ended last night, the defending champion Madrid Pirates lost 1:2 to Manchester United in the away game, but they eliminated their opponents with a total score of 3:2 and reached the top spot. The semi-finals of the Champions League. This was originally a good thing, but a piece of news after the game made all Madrid Pirates fans, even Spanish fans, feel sad..."

“...According to the official announcement of the Madrid Pirates Club, their captain Juan Ramirez sprained his knee during the game. Not only will he miss the next league match against Sporting Biscay, he will also miss the Champions League semi-finals and even the season. All the remaining games... In other words, Ramirez is out for the season!"

"...It is said that Ramirez sprained his knee when defensive tackle Cantero was dribbling the ball. However, at that time, the Madrid Pirates had used up all the substitution places, so Ramirez did not take the initiative to signal to the audience. He persisted in playing the rest of the game. Now let's look at the game video. It's completely unimaginable that Ramirez, who played excellent defense many times in the last few minutes of the game, was playing with an injured leg... It was simply 'Green Green' Tough guy'! But that could also aggravate his knee injury..."

"Ramirez is not only the captain of Madrid Pirates, but also the captain of the Spanish national team after Cerrados retired. His injury is a heavy blow to Madrid Pirates and the Spanish national team. After joining Catalonia, At the critical moment of competing for the league championship, Ramirez's injury will add variables to the league championship. In addition, it will also cast a shadow over Spain's World Cup journey..."

"As the 'championship cornerstone', Juan Ramirez's importance to the Spanish national team is self-evident. The reason why they were able to win the World Cup four years ago was, in addition to Cerrados' goal, Ramirez Reis goes from one penalty area to another, and his tireless running and coverage are also very important... But now Ramirez's injury has added a lot of uncertainty to the Spanish national team's journey to defend the title..."

"... Juan Ramirez said in an interview that he will work hard to recover for the World Cup, so he is unwilling to say now whether he will miss the World Cup... We all hope that he can catch up with the World Cup. But According to official news from the Madrid Pirates Club, his injury may require him to miss six to eight weeks. If we look at the eight-week absence, Ramirez will definitely miss the first round of the World Cup group match with the Chinese team. For Chinese fans For me, this may be good news. But considering that Ramirez's absence will make the Madrid Pirates have no results this season, this may not be good news..."

"The news of Juan Ramirez's injury hit the headlines of major media in Spain today. Not only the fans of Madrid Pirates are concerned about this matter, but also the Spanish fans. After Cerrados retired, Ramirez is the "single point" of the Spanish national team. His performance in recent seasons has also been very outstanding and stable. The Madrid Pirates were able to win the La Liga championship for two consecutive years and became the Triple Crown last season, and Rami Reis's stable performance is inseparable..."

"Another famous player who has been 'cursed' by the World Cup has appeared! Juan Ramirez, the captain of Madrid Pirates, the main defensive midfielder, and the world's top defensive midfielder, was injured in the Champions League match against Manchester United and may be reimbursed for the season. Missed the World Cup..."

“Let’s not think about the World Cup first.

Let’s first take a look at the dilemma that the Madrid Pirates are currently facing. Juan Ramirez is really the world's top defensive midfielder. If we look at defensive ability alone, he can be called the 'world's best midfielder'. He has excellent physical condition, top physical fitness, strong running ability, and is world-class in both man-to-man and zone defense. In the past ten years, he has been the unshakable main force of the Madrid Pirates team. In the past three seasons, he has played almost full attendance and is the team's player with the most appearances besides goalkeeper Hewel. The success of Madrid Pirates is inseparable from his stable performance...

"But Ramirez succeeds and loses. Ramirez's stable and top performance makes the Madrid Pirates no need for a defensive midfielder substitute. As a result, now that Ramirez is injured, Parotti has to Faced with such an embarrassing situation: he could not find a defensive midfielder who could replace Ramirez. Perhaps he could only ask Joaquin Vela to replace him, but Joaquin Vela is a comprehensive and balanced midfielder. In terms of defensive quality, there is a big gap between him and Ramirez.

"The only thing Parotti can be gratified about is that last season he transformed Vukovic from an attacking midfielder to a central midfielder, allowing him to retreat and enhance the defensive capabilities of the Serbian midfielder. So he may arrange for Vukovic and Joaquín Vela and Joaquín Vela play as a defensive midfielder, and the two of them together can be used as half of Ramirez...With a bad waist, the Madrid Pirates may be in danger of defending the league title or the Champions League this season..."

…

Madrid Pirates lost to Manchester Athletic 1:2 in an away game, but eliminated their opponents with a total score of 3:2 and advanced to the semi-finals of the Champions League.

Hu Lai scored a quasi-win in the game, and Manchester United almost made a comeback... These things were not the focus of this game.

The entire Kings team, especially Mellie Banega, who was eliminated at home a day ago, can finally take a breather. Because they are no longer the target of media fire...

After the game, everyone's attention was drawn to Ramirez's injury.

On the one hand, it is because Ramirez is the captain of the Pirates, and on the other hand, of course, it is also because the World Cup is approaching.

This time the World Cup is held locally, everyone in Spain hopes that their national team can successfully defend the title at home and win the cup.

Ramirez's injury dealt them a heavy blow, right in the face.

In addition, as the media said, Ramirez's season reimbursement has cast a heavy shadow on the Madrid Pirates' three consecutive league championships and the defense of the Champions League.

Some pessimists believe that Madrid Pirates will collapse in the last month and lose both the league and the Champions League.

"So the Champions League has reached the quarter-finals, and there is a reason why the Madrid Pirates' odds of winning are still not the highest. There is also a reason why no team has been able to successfully defend the Champions League after the restructuring. When a team starts from the perspective of hard power When there is no weakness, fate and metaphysics will jump out to find a sense of existence. I think there is no way to explain Ramirez's injury at this time. If there is, then there is only one explanation - it is God's arrange……"

※※※

The captain was seriously injured during the sprint phase of the season, resulting in the entire season being canceled.

This incident may have a greater impact on the Madrid Pirates players than the fans.

After all, Ramirez has always been a leader who is trustworthy and admired by everyone.

It seems that as long as the captain is here, there will be no difficulties or problems.

He is a strong support for everyone on the court.

He is the backbone of everyone in the locker room.

Now the shield is shattered and the backbone is broken.

For a moment, everyone was a little confused.

This can be felt from the training on the second day after the Champions League, and it is very obvious.

Most of the players are distracted and not in good spirits during training.

This is not because of the Champions League match yesterday.

Fortunately, the team's training is not open to the media, otherwise if the media reported it, it would be another round of hype.

However, whether there are media reports or not, it does not prevent everyone from worrying about the prospects of Madrid Pirates.

In the next round of the league, Madrid Pirates will challenge Sporting Vizcaya away from home.

First of all, Sporting Vizcaya is a team with a tough style and a strong fighting spirit. Their home court has never been easy to play.

Secondly, Sporting Vizcaya is competing with Real Catajon for fourth place in the league, which is to qualify for the Champions League next season.

Since Real Catajon lost to Valero 1:2 away from home in the last round of the league, and Sporting Vizcaya defeated Atletico Málaga 1:0 away from home, the point difference between them and Real Catajon is only three points.

Under such circumstances, the Madrid Pirates, who have lost their main midfielder and captain, are welcomed at home. How could Sporting Vizcaya not try their best?

If they can defeat the Madrid Pirates, Catalonia has a great chance of regaining the top spot in the league standings.

At the same time, once the Madrid Pirates lose their top spot in the league, it is almost impossible to get it back under the current circumstances.

Because Ramirez's injury will remind other Pirates players all the time - do you also want to be like Ramirez and miss the World Cup due to injury?
