After interacting with the fans, he returned to the locker room. When Willard told everyone that he would fly to Europe immediately after the game to represent Liverpool in the European Super Cup, his teammates were stunned.
You know, this is the Olympic Games held every four years, and Argentina has not been eliminated, but is in the process of competing.
As a result, Velarde told everyone that he would fly back to Europe to participate in a European Super Cup, and he would come back to compete after Argentina entered the knockout round.
Do you want to be so funny?
I have never heard of such an outrageous operation in the history of football. This kind of thing is quite explosive even in the world of explosions.
But after the shock, everyone could only admire him deeply.
Only Willard dared to perform this kind of operation, but he didn’t know what the effect would be.
If Willard can win the European Super Cup and the Olympics in the end, it will naturally be a good story. But if all four are empty in the end, then Velarde will probably be picked out and criticized by the media and fans for the rest of his life.
But with Velarde's status in the Argentine Olympic team, the coaching staff can't do anything about him, let alone his teammates. Everyone can only wish Velarde well and hope that he can defeat Real Madrid in the European Super Cup and win the title. champion, and then come back to lead everyone to continue to win the Olympic championship, which is undoubtedly a super feat.
Velarde originally wanted to leave Brazil quietly to avoid falling into the whirlpool of public opinion, but he thought too well. During the Olympic Games, which is held every four years, how much media focuses on Brazil?
What's more, the Argentine Olympic team is the favorite to win the men's football team at this Olympics, and Velarde is one of the biggest stars at this Olympics, on par with Neymar, but his performance is better than Neymar.
Under such circumstances, his every move was naturally followed by the media. Although Willard was not stopped by reporters when he left the Olympic Village, rushed to the airport, and boarded the plane to leave, he was seen and photographed.
Then, the reporter asked Argentinian Olympic team coach Oraticochea and found out the specific reason. The entire media world exploded.
Subsequently, before TV media and newspapers were the first to report it, online media was the first to expose the explosive news.
"Villard left Brazil and flew back to Europe, intending to participate in the European Super Cup? 》
"An operation that has never been seen before. He suddenly returned to Europe to participate in the European Super Cup during the Olympic Games. Willard set a precedent! 》
"In a shocking move, Willard suddenly left Brazil during the Olympic men's football group stage and returned to Europe to represent Liverpool in the European Super Cup! 》
The sudden news shocked the world's media, fans, and Olympic spectators. No one has even thought that there are people in the world who operate games like this?
You said it’s the same Olympics, and it’s still understandable if you participate in several events. Even if you are a football player and participate in long-distance running, everyone can understand it, although there is no precedent for this.
But during the Olympic Games, you ate and lived in the Brazilian Olympic Village, and then during the group stage, you suddenly ran away, across the Atlantic, across the northern and southern hemispheres, and flew to Norway to participate in the European Super Cup?
No one can understand this operation. Where do you place the majesty, face and achievements of the Argentine Olympic team? Where do you place the Olympics? What makes you so confident?
There was an immediate outpouring of verbal abuse and severe criticism of Velarde in the media. Fans were also divided into two groups, and they heatedly discussed and cursed Velarde's behavior of returning to Europe midway through the Olympics.
Many people, including fans in Argentina, do not understand Velarde's behavior. They think Velarde is selfish, putting the club's interests above the national interests, and disregarding the results of the Olympic team and Argentina's national image. , there are not a few people who turn from pink to black.
As for neutral fans, there are even more scolding and ridiculing Velarde.
"This is provoking the Olympic team, tarnishing the country's image, and tarnishing the Olympic Games."
"Such a player should be expelled from the Olympic team and the Olympic Games so that he cannot participate."
Before Velarde's plane even landed, hundreds of reporters had already swarmed the airport and blocked the passenger exits at the airport in Trondheim, Norway's third largest city.
Yes, this year’s European Super Cup will be held at the Lekendall Stadium, the home of the famous team Rosenborg FC in Trondheim, Norway’s third largest city.
Willard's operation, which shocked media and fans around the world, has replaced the Olympic Games itself and become the hottest news in the world. Naturally, everyone will flock to Willard and conduct interviews.
If some media hadn't just gotten the news and couldn't rush to the scene in time, there would have been even more people.
As soon as Willard got off the plane and dragged his suitcase to the airport exit under the protection of two bodyguards, he saw hundreds of reporters lined up.
Even though Willard is wearing a mask, his current attractiveness is like a firefly in the night sky. It is eye-catching and cannot allow him to slip away quietly and be recognized by some reporters.
"Willard, Willard is out."
"The one wearing a mask and followed by two bodyguards is Willard."
"Willard, please come here and be interviewed."
"Willard, why did you suddenly go back to Europe to compete in the Olympic Games?"
With hundreds of people staring at him alone, even though airport security was responsible for maintaining order, Willard was a little helpless. Finally, after thinking about it, he stopped and accepted everyone's interview.
You can't hide, you will have to face this scene eventually.
Willard knew that his operation would cause dissatisfaction and incomprehension among many people, but his family knew about his family affairs, and his physical fitness was fine and he could support it. The only problem is grades.
Football is a winner-takes-all game, and there isn’t much worldliness. As long as you can win games and win championships, your farts will taste good. On the contrary, no matter how strong your reasons are, they are all wrong.
Therefore, Willard did not explain too much and just told reporters that returning to Europe to participate in the European Super Cup was the result of his careful consideration. He greatly admires Real Madrid and cherishes the opportunity to play against Real Madrid.
In the Olympics, he has led the Argentine Olympic team to two consecutive victories, accumulating 6 points and 7 goal differences. There is no problem in qualifying or even ranking first in the group. He only returned to Europe to play in the Super Cup.
After finishing the European Super Cup, I will return to Brazil to play in the knockout round of the Olympic men's football team. The time is just right and there will be no delay. The only thing is that I will miss the last group match.
When a reporter asked, if the Argentine Olympic team loses to Honduras by a large score in the last round of the group stage, and Algeria also loses to Portugal by a large score, then Honduras and Portugal will share 6 points with Argentina and be eliminated through the advantage of goal difference. Argentina, knock Argentina out.
In that case, how will Willard respond?
Velarde said: "I believe in my teammates, they will not let this happen. If this happens, I would like to express my sincere gratitude to everyone at the Obelisk Square in Buenos Aires." Argentinian fans and Olympic team teammates and coaches formally apologize."
After the interview, Willard got into a car sent by Liverpool Club and rushed to the training ground to join his teammates and prepare for the European Super Cup against Real Madrid.
