Super Storm

Yang Yang has lived in Madrid for nine years. Although he doesn’t usually go out on weekdays, he is still familiar with the city.

This time Ajax reached the Champions League final, the final place is in Madrid.

For Yang Yang, it feels a bit like returning to his home court.

As early as the team’s first round of the game, after a five to zero away victory over Barcelona, ​​Ajax management began to find hotels in Madrid.

From the last round of the Dutch League to the Champions League final, there are two weeks in the middle, and the preparation time is very ample.

Liverpool are longer and there are three weeks to prepare for the final round of the Premier League to the Champions League final.

Around the two-week preparation time, Yang Yang and the coaching staff also prepared a very detailed preparation plan, from targeted tactical drills, to players’ physical reserves, to other aspects, and even to the time when the team arrived in Madrid.

Yang Yang and the coaching staff reached an early agreement that the team should arrive in Madrid as soon as possible.

Madrid is located in the Iberian Peninsula in southern Europe, and Amsterdam in the Netherlands is located in north-central Europe. The temperature difference between the two places is about ten degrees. Although Ajax players have adapted well before playing Barcelona, ​​Yang Yang decided to go ahead in advance Madrid is preparing for battle.

To this end, he took the initiative to contact Florentino and borrowed Valdebebas.

The hotel was finally decided by Yang Yang. The Pullman Madrid Airport Convention Hotel living opposite the Madrid IFEMA Convention and Exhibition Center. The location of this hotel is on the outskirts, just in the middle of Valde Bebas and Wanda Metropolitan Stadium. From the hotel Departure to Valdebebas, straight line distance is less than two kilometers.

This hotel has a total of 179 rooms. The entire hotel is fully inclusive. Ajax players, coaches, staff, and invited Ajax guests are provided on different floors. Check in with business partners.

There are two restaurants in the hotel, one of which will be taken over by Ajax chefs, who will be responsible for providing catering services for Ajax players and coaching staff. All ingredients are tested by Ajax personnel or airlifted directly from Amsterdam To Madrid, the gym, swimming pool, masseur, sauna and other places will also be taken over by Ajax.

The purpose of Yang Yang’s move is only one, that is to create a preparation environment free from outside interference.

However, he also knows the psychology of the players, so during the two weeks of training, he will take irregular vacations for the players according to the progress of preparations. At the same time, in order to avoid a long lack of games, the status of the players is affected, Yang Yang also agreed with Real Madrid In the middle of two weeks, an internal training match was held with Castilla at the Di Stefano Stadium.

All in all, there is only one purpose.

That is to allow Ajax players to greet the Champions League final in their best form.

…………

…………

Ajax borrowed Valdebebas, which can’t be concealed, but when Ajax arrived in Madrid and when he entered Valdebebas for training, he was kept strictly confidential.

There is only one purpose, that is to try to avoid interference from outside.

So that the team arrived at the Madrid airport overnight, rushed to the hotel to check in, the next morning secretly departed by coach, came to Valdebebas, the whole process did not receive any attention.

After all, this is not the center of Madrid, nor lively.

…

In the past few years, Real Madrid has not invested much in the transfer market, but has invested heavily in Valdebebas.

After years of upgrading, this training base has been built into the world’s top sports training center. The various hardware and software facilities are the most outstanding in the world, not only in the field of football, but even in all sports circles, Baldbe Bath is the most complete and advanced modern training base.

So much so that when Ajax players arrived at this training base, everyone was amazed.

From the Di Stefano stadium overlooking the fence to the irregular design of Real Madrid’s administrative office building, and finally to the layout of the main entrance of the training base, all the Ajax players were very impressed.

In the three years since Yang Yang invested in Ajax, Detok Most has been performing various hardware and software upgrades. This training base is already very good in the Netherlands and even in European football. Compared to Valdebebas, he was slightly stingy.

“This is the training base for Real Madrid!”

When getting off the bus, every Ajax player shined with two eyes, as if Grandma Liu entered the Grand View Garden.

In fact, what really amazed them was not necessarily the hardware facilities of Valdebebas, but the halo bonus brought by the glorious achievements of this legendary team in the past decade, which gave them a heart Share admiration.

…

“Hello, welcome to Valdebebas!”

The director of Valdebebas greeted him with a smile, and came directly to embrace Yang Yang.

“I’m so happy to see you back, Yang, we all want to die you!”

“Me too, Juan.” Yang Yang embraced this supervisor who had been with him for many years, and he was waving to the security team who was desperately waving at him in the distance. Over the past nine years, they have been dealing with each other almost every day. Familiar again.

“Shall I take you around?” Juan asked with concern.

Yang Yang and Harvey Alonso glanced at each other and laughed in unison.

“Thank you, Juan, but let’s do it ourselves!”

“Oh, yes, this is your home!”

…

Yang Yang spent nine years in this training base. Even in these nine years, he spent longer in this base than at home. Every corner is very well known.

Ajax borrowed the training area of ​​Real Madrid ’s first team, five standard courses and a comprehensive training field. All venues are equipped with the most advanced facilities such as floor heating and drainage. Today, five of them are available because there is one. The course is changing turf, which is also the norm.

In fact, Yang Yang is not satisfied with the layout of Valdebebas. He believes that the first team occupies more than half of the venue, the western half is divided into two, the top is the training ground of the youth team, and the bottom is the second team Kas Tia’s training ground and the home stadium of Di Stefano, although this highlights the importance of the first team, but in fact also makes Real Madrid’s youth training a bit awkward.

The entire Valdebebas has three very large training buildings. Of course, the first team is the largest. The second team and the youth team each have one. It can be seen that Real Madrid has also invested a lot in this.

Yang Yang took the Ajax players to the first-team training building and visited every floor and department. When almost everyone saw him, he would greet him very enthusiastically.

There is also the coaching staff of Ajax. Apart from Frans Hawke, Yang Yang, Xavi Alonso, Pintus and Winston Bogard are all very familiar with Valde Bebas, and During the loan period, all facilities and personnel of Valdebebas will fully cooperate with Ajax’s training.

From hardware and software facilities, to high-tech equipment, to garden landscapes … Valdebebas is top-notch.

The Ajax players also watched with amazement. Except for Yang Yang, Ashraf and Edego, everyone else was the first to see this legendary training base.

…

“Ha, Yang, you are finally here!”

After Yang Yang took the people to visit the training base, he just went out and saw Real Madrid’s General Manager Manuel Redondo taking Butragno, briskly from the direction of the office building.

“I’m so happy to see you, Manuel.” Yang Yang hugged Redondo hard, then hugged Butragno again, and then he noticed Raul, “Hey Raul.”

After shaking hands vigorously, they hit their shoulders.

They are neighbors for many years and former comrades-in-arms, and many words need not be said much.

“Florentino told me that during your borrowing period, the training base and the club will cooperate fully with you. If you need to mention it, we will try our best to meet it.” Manuel Redondo said.

After receiving Yang Yang’s gratitude, Real Madrid’s general manager moved closer and whispered: “Florentino has a very important meeting to be held, so there is no way to come in person. He asked me to say sorry to you.”

“It’s okay. May I help you convey my thanks, I am very grateful.”

“Originally Florentino wanted to invite you to dinner, but considering the current situation, so keep it.”

The Ajax battle is imminent, and Yang Yang is definitely not willing to grow outside the festival, so the best way is to be undisturbed.

But if Yang Yang and Florentino go out for dinner, it is really eye-catching.

“Thank you Florentino for me.”

Then Yang Yang looked at Raul again, pointing at the legend of Real Madrid with a smile, “Raul, you are now leading the team to play the upgrade play-off, are you afraid that we will be abused by our morale? Let’s say it first, if the time comes You ca n’t upgrade, do n’t blame me. “

Raul also laughed straight, “How can you know you can win before the game has been played?”

He was originally the head coach of the youth team, but after Castilla coach Solari took any line team fire coach, Raul became the head coach of the second team. Currently playing in the third level of the West League, in the first The team won the fifth place and entered the semifinals of the promotion play-offs.

Yang Yang certainly does not really believe that the second team led by Raul can beat Ajax, so haha ​​passed by with a smile.

Raul’s coaching on the youth team and the second team was not smooth, and he did not get too good results, but the more because of this, the more he admired Yang Yang, because Yang Yang was almost his debut, the peak, the first time he came to coach , It took Ajax to the Champions League final, which is definitely the stage that can best prove the level of coaching.

In terms of importance, the World Cup and the European Cup are definitely more important, but in terms of skills and tactics, the Champions League is the first in the world.

Yang Yang’s ability to coach can be seen in the blood of the Champions League where the gunmen gather.

If Ajax won the championship this season, it may not be able to shake the current situation in European football, but at least let Yang Yang and this Ajax go down in history.
