Chapter 962 Unprecedented Kaka
Chapter 962 Unprecedented Kaka
From the post-match interviews and press conferences, the media was full of comments on the game.
Real Madrid, which has won nine Champions League titles, was eliminated in the group stage. This is really the biggest news.
This result was completely unexpected when the results of the group draw came out.
If it was said at that time that Real Madrid could not qualify for the group stage, it would definitely be laughed at, or it would make Real Madrid fans feel they were offended.
No one would have thought that Real Madrid, which bought so many superstars in the summer, turned out to be just a paper tiger, and Manchester City would be torn apart...
This result is embarrassing.
The most eye-catching team this summer, but the first to fall.
Could it be that the second-generation galactic battleship is about to sink just after it leaves the dock?
In the overwhelming reports about Real Madrid's exit from the group stage, the news that Kaka may be out for a month with a thigh muscle strain seems insignificant-the team is out, what is your player compared to a team?
Kaka returned to Madrid with the whole team.
At Madrid Barajas Airport, the players disbanded and left. They will have half a day of vacation and will not train tomorrow morning.
But at this time, no one in the team was in the mood to chat and laugh, or to go on vacation.
On the plane back to Madrid, everyone was silent and silent, as if the plane was transporting more than two dozen corpses.
Caroline received her husband at the airport.
From the moment they met, until they got in the car, and on the way back home, Kaka, who was sitting in the co-pilot, didn't say a word, his eyes were blank, and he didn't know where he was looking.
Caroline didn't know what to say, and the death-like silence in the well-insulated car was embarrassing.
In order to resolve this embarrassment, Caroline turned on the radio and planned to listen to the radio.
As soon as the results were opened, I heard the host say in a eulogy tone: "In the fourth round of the group stage that just ended, Real Madrid lost to Manchester City in an away game. They also lost their only hope of qualifying for the group stage..."
It was even more embarrassing to hear the news broadcast.
So Caroline shook her hand and turned it off again.
The cabin was quiet again.
This silence is even more embarrassing.
Caroline was thinking of saying something to resolve this embarrassment, but Kaka spoke first.
"Perhaps this is the revelation the Lord gave me—don't force what you can't get." Kaka said in a low voice. "There are some things that I want too much..."
Caroline was surprised to hear her husband say such dejected words, and she turned her head to look at her husband suddenly.
She saw that Kaka was no longer bowing her head, but curled up on the co-pilot.
She was shocked. It was the first time she had seen her husband like this after knowing her husband for so many years.
She was so surprised that she forgot to turn her head to look ahead, forgot that she was still driving.
Knowing a piercing car horn and lights flickering, she woke up like a dream. She slammed on the brakes reflexively, the car nodded forward, and then stopped.
And a car brushed past their car, and it seemed that someone still poked his head out and scolded them vaguely.
Kaka was also taken aback. He raised his head in a daze and looked at his wife: "What's wrong with you?"
Caroline shook her head: "No, it's nothing. I didn't see clearly... Let's go and go home."
During the rest of the journey, she had no distractions and did not look at her husband again.
But her brows, like willow leaves, were always furrowed.
She was already very worried, but she didn't show it.
And what if she showed it?
Having known Kaka for so long, in her opinion, her ex-husband is always in high spirits.
Caroline didn't expect that this failure would hit him so hard.

When Real Madrid returned to Madrid, they brought trouble and controversy back to Madrid.
There was an uproar in the newspapers "Marca" and "Aspen".
Pellegrini took the initiative to disclose to media reporters after the game that he would resign to Florentino.
And a day later, Florentino said that he had accepted Pellegrini's resignation, and Pellegrini will no longer be the head coach of Real Madrid from now on.
As for his successor, Florentino did not give a specific candidate, but said that the club will contact some people.
But now Pellegrini will temporarily replace Pellegrini as the team's head coach will be the team's assistant coach Qin Duo.
Some media said that Real Madrid may announce the official head coach during the winter break.
In addition, the media revealed that Pellegrini's dismissal may also lead to the loss of Real Madrid's general manager Valdano within the club.
Because Pellegrini was originally introduced by Valdano.
After Florentino became the club president for the second time, he quickly introduced two superstars, Kaka and Cristiano Ronaldo.
But no one knows, before these two people, Florentino considered more who would be the new helm of Real Madrid's galaxy warship.
He considered many candidates, such as Wenger, Carlo Ancelotti, Mourinho, and even Benitez.
But in the end, none of these candidates materialized.
However, under the hard recommendation of Valdano, Florentino finally chose Pellegrini.
But now it seems that Pellegrini is not a suitable candidate.
After agreeing to Pellegrini's resignation, Florentino spoke to a radio interview about why he fired the team's manager so quickly.
"...We are very clear that Real Madrid needs stability, and only stability can compete with Barcelona. So if the situation is not too bad, I would not change the coach so early. But there is no way, the premise of stability is to find the right person. Obviously, we have not found the right person before... (Pellegrini) He is a very good coach, but his problem is also obvious, that is, he has never won a championship in European football, so he lacks the temperament of a champion, but this cannot be cultivated in three or five seasons. Real Madrid cannot last for a long time. To develop a head coach…”

Pellegrini's dismissal still caused a lot of controversy in Madrid, but in England and Manchester, there was no movement.
England don't care about the palace fights inside the Real Madrid club.
They are all cheering for Manchester City to qualify first in the group.
In the eyes of the English media, Manchester City's performance is very good.
Because they are the best performers among all the teams participating in the Champions League in England this season!
As Manchester City's rivals in the same city, Manchester United performed well in the first three rounds of Group Three. They won three consecutive victories, but in the just-concluded fourth round of the group stage, they were tied 3:3 by CSKA Moscow at home.Although the group qualified ahead of time, it did not lock in the first place in the group in advance.
Wolfsburg still has a chance to grab the first place in the group.
Chelsea's performance was the same as that of Manchester United. They won three consecutive group matches in the first three rounds, and they were tied 2:2 at home by Atletico Madrid in the fourth round.Only one point ahead of Porto, which is second in the group, it is also not locked in the first place in the group.
As for last season's league runner-up Liverpool, their performance in the UEFA Champions League group stage was the worst. They only won one game in the four rounds of the group stage, scored four points, and lost two games. Let alone the first place in the group, even the group is in danger...
After playing four rounds in the group stage, the best performance was Manchester City, which is the least experienced. This is something that many people did not expect...
In this way, no one in England would dare to underestimate Manchester City.
Manchester City's performance is better than the other three teams, how dare you look down on them?
When the result of the draw had just come out, Arsenal and Manchester City met in the league. The pro-Arsenal London media ridiculed the result of the draw for Manchester City and was aggrieved, saying that it would be better to give this opportunity to Arsenal.At least with the strength of Arsenal's seeded team, they will definitely not be classified as the fourth-tier team and assigned to the death group...
But now, those media dare not make such voices.
Even if Arsenal are allowed to play, will they be able to perform better than Manchester City?
Not to mention better than Manchester City, even if it is the same as Manchester City, can the current Arsenal do it?
In fact, without Manchester City, Arsenal participated in this season's Champions League. After the four rounds of the group stage, their results should be the same as Manchester United and Chelsea, with three wins and one draw.
Manchester City performed well, the media is full of praise for Manchester City, which makes Manchester City fans very happy.
On the second day of the game, collecting newspapers around and looking at all the reports on the game is the greatest joy for Manchester City fans, which can make their happiness last for a while.
So in many newsstands, those newspapers were sold out by Manchester City fans as soon as they were put up, and some people even wanted to buy several copies...
So it was no surprise when Kieren Reiswell stood at the door of Carrington's training ground with a crumpled "Times"-this newspaper was snatched from someone else.
Kieren Reiswell has almost memorized the contents of this newspaper by heart.
He was still holding this newspaper, intending to find Rong Guang and sign his own newspaper.
Then...he had something to say to Rong Guang.
But he wasn't sure if a big star like Rong Guang would waste his time communicating with a nobody like himself, or if he would care about his own story and be willing to answer his doubts...
