Midfielder

Chapter 31: Aftermath of the Game

Lin Yi's sudden departure made the reporters lose the interview target they wanted most after the game, but they would not give up the opportunity to dig up news like this. Almost all microphones were aimed at Benfica. Neither Mourinho nor Villariño could escape the reporters' entanglement.

As for Inacio and Atlético, who lost in the game, almost no one cared about them. This might be the most one-sided national derby for them. No matter on the field or off the field, no one's eyes stayed on them. This is the treatment of losers.

The double star battle that was still hyped before the game was completely unnecessary to continue. On the field, Lin Yi contributed a goal and an assist, while Cristiano Ronaldo could only play when the team was completely behind.

Although his performance was the best in the entire Atlético team in the second half, it was really difficult to save anything with his personal strength.

Cristiano Ronaldo was unwilling to lose this game, but he had no way. He was the protagonist in the last contest, but this time he could only be a spectator watching his opponent perform off the field.

This was not a fair duel. Mourinho trusted Lin Yi and gave him the opportunity to start and make him the protagonist of the game, but Cristiano Ronaldo could only wait for his chance on the bench. Inacio paid a heavy price for his conservatism and arrogance.

When Lin Yi silenced the entire Stadium of Light with his madness, Cristiano Ronaldo could only stand on the sidelines and watch his opponent become the focus there. All this was because of Inacio's conservatism. At least in this game, Lin Yi became the protagonist of the entire game.

When the Athletic team walked away from the locker room in disgrace, no one even cared about how they felt now, including those media that tended to Sporting Lisbon, who were busy interviewing Benfica, which was at the center of the vortex, and forgot their old club.

If the media was so crazy because Benfica won the national derby, maybe Villariño would be the most proud person, but now the situation seems to have little to do with the game. Everyone is focusing on the celebration of that goal.

The most embarrassed person at this time may be Villarinho. His team won, but no one cares about Benfica's 3:0 victory. All reporters care about is the middle finger raised high and the two lines of words on Lin Yi's underwear that asked Villarinho to get out.

Who would care about Villarinho's mood at this time? They just want to know why. Gossip is popular because there is always a little devil in the darkest corner of people's minds trying to explore the reasons behind the conflict.

Now Lin Yi has exposed the conflict between him and Villarinho in front of tens of thousands of people. These reporters no longer need to guess anything. They just need to put the microphone in front of Villarinho and listen to his explanation. As for whether it is reasonable, let others judge.

No one cares what this guy will say now. All they need now is for him to speak. The rest of the things are controlled by them. Don't worry about whether this guy is willing or not. This is the power of the media at certain times.

The world of football is not just black and white. Reporters will use their subjective judgment to influence readers' emotions and thinking, not to mention such a big thing. Some people want to see how serious Benfica's internal disputes have become.

"President Villariño, what was the reason for the scene on the field? Personal grudges or players' dissatisfaction with the club? As far as we know, Lin Yi has not signed any professional contract with Benfica yet. Is it because the team is going to introduce a new midfielder next season, and Lin Yi must leave here, which makes the players do such extreme behavior on the field?"

"Will the club punish Lin Yi within the team because of such things? Will this affect the contract between him and the team?"

"Does this mean that Lin Yi will be included in the transaction list when the transfer period comes, or return to the youth team after this game, please answer."

Faced with this question, Villariño didn't know how to answer, because he didn't know what the black-haired boy was crazy about. Although he has not reached a consensus with his agent Mendes on signing a contract, this should not be the fuse of the matter.

Originally, because of the performance of this little guy in the first half, he was ready to have a good talk with Mendes after the game, but now it has become unimportant. The black-haired little guy must disappear from Benfica!

Because he insulted the top leader of Benfica, and more importantly, he left the team without saying hello to anyone. All this gave Villarinho enough excuses to punish him, but now it seems that the person who has become a laughing stock is still Villarinho himself.

As for the black-haired kid, now not only has he left a mess for the Benfica team, but more importantly, he has put Villarinho in the most embarrassing position. The game was won, but he couldn't face others with a smile. This is really a bad thing.

Villarinho couldn't push away all the reporters in front of him, because he had to maintain the self-restraint that a chairman should have, but this matter could not be solved by self-restraint. He had to force himself not to lose his composure in front of everyone.

Lin Yi's action was undoubtedly to slap Villarinho in the face in front of all the people watching the game, and the noise was very loud, as if he really hit Villarinho in the face.

Now Villarinho must hold back all his anger to remain a gentleman in front of the camera and accept all the reporters' mental abuse again. As for whether he is willing, no one cares anymore. People only care about what kind of disputes are hidden behind this.

Lin Yi's action is to slap you in the face directly, and you still have to face everything with a smile. Villarinho is probably about to bite his teeth off now. He wants to get the black-haired kid out of his team immediately! Never let himself see him again!

Compared with Villarinho's embarrassing appearance, Mourinho's problem seems much simpler. He doesn't need to worry about anything. Anyway, the game has been won, and he has no responsibility. He has fulfilled all the obligations that the head coach needs to pay.

3:0, although he did not predict the score before the game, the final outcome has made him get back everything he lost in the last derby. Listening to the cheers in the Stadium of Light after the game, anyone with ears knows that Mourinho has been recognized by everyone.

As for what happened on the field, it was the player's own choice. This is Mourinho's answer to that unexpected moment.

Is there any hidden secret? Please ask you reporters to interview others. As for the chairman's reaction, it has nothing to do with him. Mourinho's answer is limited to the content of the game, and the rest will not be responded to.

At this time, Mourinho does not want Lin Yi to become more passive in the media's extensive reports. Although the kid has made everything clear to him, he can't let this kid become the target of others' attacks, but now he is a little worried about what the kid is thinking.

This departure without saying goodbye not only made the team management look angry, but also made Mourinho worried about Lin Yi's current state. He didn't know whether this 15-year-old kid could survive this huge event.

Even Mourinho feels a little overwhelmed by such a fierce group of reporters, let alone the young boy who is not very experienced in the world. Mourinho is full of worries at this moment. He just hopes that the little guy can survive this period smoothly.

If there is no damn pig head, maybe this will be a wonderful afternoon, or Lin Yi will become an idol worshipped by others because of his wonderful performance in this game, but now no one can tell what will happen in the future, even Mourinho can't see clearly what will happen in the future.

The reaction of the fans? Those fans don't care whether this little guy is insulting Villarinho. They prefer to see this kid's brilliant performance on the court. That damn Villarinho, who cares about his face, not many people like him now.

Especially after he announced those unattainable team adjustment plans, the fans saw the most turbulent people's hearts, not the glorious future. They even hoped for a moment that Azevedo would return to the team again, instead of this pig head continuing to talk nonsense here.

Although Lin Yi's action on the field seemed a bit extreme, no one denied the influence of this little guy on the game. Without his wonderful performance on the field, perhaps Benfica would not have won the game so thoroughly.

Fans never rub sand in their eyes, especially those who often watch Benfica training. They know that the black-haired kid will only be fierce in training and games. He usually looks smiling, of course, except when he is trained alone by Mourinho.

Villariño must be responsible for his extreme actions, although the boy's actions seem a bit rebellious.

Lin Yi performed perfectly enough in the more than 40 minutes he played, with one assist and one goal. If it weren't for those two lines of words, he would definitely be the best player of the game. This is a great success for a 15-year-old boy.

But his choice made this national derby more intense. There are many fans who support him, but there are also voices of opposition. After all, in the eyes of many fans, his actions have undermined the stability of Benfica, and Lin Yi must pay the price for it.

Mourinho would not be stingy with his words to praise Lin Yi's performance on the field. Anyway, it was impossible for him and Villarinho to coexist peacefully. He simply did not consider how the pig-like chairman felt at this time. Mourinho just said everything he should say.

And Mourinho said the truth. The boy's performance on the field was indeed perfect. If it weren't for those ten seconds of madness, perhaps everyone, including Villarinho, would stand up and applaud Lin Yi at the end of the game.

But all this was ruined in those ten seconds. Mourinho wanted to say that Lin Yi was a little impulsive, but the boy didn't seem to regret doing so at all. He seemed to have been waiting for this moment for a long time. Maybe the little guy had been holding back a rage in his mind.

As for how embarrassing Villarinho's situation is now, it has nothing to do with Mourinho. He had made his decision before the game anyway, and now it was time for him to announce it all.

Mourinho did not miss the opportunity to rub salt into Villarinho's mouth at this juncture. He directly announced his decision to leave Benfica at the press conference after the game. At this time, he no longer needed to save face for anyone. Leaving was leaving, and there was no nostalgia.

When Mourinho said these words to the reporter's microphone, everyone in the press box was almost crazy, because this continuous news impact made everyone crazy. It seemed that after 90 minutes of the game, everything in Benfica began to collapse.

Lin Yi insulted the club chairman in his own way on the court. Now the head coach who had just brought the team to the first place in the league was about to leave again. Such continuous news events dragged the Benfica team into the quagmire of right and wrong.

Such a series of blows caught Villarinho off guard. His boasting and public relations skills were useless at this time, because no one would believe that Benfica was still a solid team.

At this time, anyone with the ability to judge can see that there is a problem within them, and it is a very serious internal dispute. Such a blow is undoubtedly fatal to the Benfica team that has just recovered.

Although Benfica's press officer Marero repeatedly told reporters that this was just Mourinho's own choice for the future, and the club has not yet given a reply, everyone can see that Benfica's new chairman is now in a quagmire of trouble.

Yes, Benfica has just climbed to the top of the league rankings because of winning the game, but who can guarantee that they can still maintain this slight lead after losing Mourinho? I'm afraid even Villarinho himself doesn't dare to say this.

It was the guy he thought was a novice who led Benfica to the peak of victory. Now his departure may take away the soul of Benfica. Now count on the guy named Tony in Villarinho's mouth? I'm afraid no one dares to make this gamble.

And Villariño must deal with Lin Yi's problem in the shortest possible time. He probably wants to strangle Lin Yi to death, but the media's attention and the fans' reaction let Villariño know that any action he takes now is digging a hole for himself.

It seems that the shock wave of the middle finger has put Villariño's dream of Benfica Dynasty in danger of collapse. . .

(It will be on the recommendation list tomorrow, and it will explode then...)
