Chapter 133 Little Gossip
In the end, Modric went in first, and Eggsy found that he was not as agile as Modric.
At least when he suddenly exploded and rushed in with his happy clothes to monopolize the toilet, Eggsy's nose hit the door, and Modric laughed wildly in the toilet.
Eggsy: ...
At this moment, Eggsy covered his nose and suddenly remembered Ramos' words, feeling that he was being bullied. After sitting for a while with tears in his eyes, Modric had already washed.
It fully demonstrates what it means to take a bath in battle and speed up in the midfield.
Of course when Modric came out, Eggsy was waiting at the door with clothes in his hand. Modric looked at him and then moved a little closer.
"Angry?"
"I'm not that naive."
Eggsy pulled his sweaty sportswear and went in with clean clothes. Modric smiled, then went to his temporary bed, picked up his mobile phone and replied to text messages.
Of course, this text message was from Ramos, who sent a message directly to Modric: "Did you rob the bathroom again?"
"Ahaha~" Modric laughed.
Ramos: "Okay, I don't understand your habits, but don't bully the little guy."
Modric didn't answer, he was thinking about something else. When Eggsy came out of the bathroom, Modric looked at the time. How long did Eggsy take to shower? He came out in 5 minutes?
"Why don't you take a longer shower?"
Eggsy, who was drying his hair, was stunned by this. "Didn't you only wash it for a few minutes?"
Modric opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to explain his meaning to Eggsy. He could only ask politely, "Are you going to rest now?"
Eggsy shook his head. "I'm reading in bed with the bedside lamp on."
In fact, Eggsy used to read on the desk, but why not read on the desk now? Of course, it is because the desk is in the middle of the room next to the window. If the light is turned on here, it will definitely disturb Modric's rest.
So Eggsy chose to read in bed. Modric looked at the book Eggsy was reading, which was probably 10 centimeters thick. Modric couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. Then he said quietly: "Eggsy, if it's not convenient for you at night, I can tell you that I sleep very deeply and won't disturb you. I will pretend not to hear it."
Eggsy immediately sensed something was wrong after hearing this.
Would Modric be the kind of person who would fight with him for the bathroom? According to Modric's personality, he probably wouldn't care, whether he took a shower first or later wouldn't make much difference.
So what makes Modric think that Eggesi should wash after taking the medicine? And it will take a long time to wash?
Combined with the lamb chops and oysters he had eaten today, and Modric's words to him to take care of his health, Eggsy suddenly remembered something.
Modric was still thinking about how to say it so that the child in front of him would understand what he was talking about, but the next second he understood when he saw Eggsy's head turn red and shyly hid his head under his pillow.
"I'm serious." Modric thought Eggsy was still a kid, so he tried to make his words clearer: "We are all on the same team, we see each other every day, and we often take showers together. I think you'd better adapt as soon as possible."
Eggsy still had a red face and didn't say anything. Modric was thinking, I've explained it so clearly, but you still don't understand? You don't want me to teach you in person, do you?
Modric was thinking about whether to teach him personally, and Eggsy was also struggling with his conscience. He always believed that people can die, but they cannot die socially, so after holding it in for a long time, Eggsy finally said something.
"I have taken physiology classes."
"Oh——" Modric's reaction was beyond Eggsy's expectations. Looking at the other party's playful long tone, Eggsy was speechless, but Modric continued: "I said, if you need anything, I will make sure I didn't hear anything."
After hearing this, Eggsy could only bury himself into the pillow in silence, letting the awkward atmosphere in the dormitory spread.
After Modric finished speaking, he felt that what he said might be a bit direct, which might really make a shy young man like Eggsy feel uncomfortable. But in fact, Modric had to tell Eggsy these things not only as a teammate, but also as a senior and even a teacher.
But he made his point clear and stopped there. Modric also felt that he had ruined the atmosphere in the dormitory, so he deliberately whispered to Eggsy, "Do you want to know whose is the longest?"
Eggsy was completely shocked, holding the book like a spartan, and said in horror: "I don't want to!"
Modric nodded, looked at Eggsy and could only compromise, spread his hands, and said: "Okay, let's not talk about it."
One of them was looking at his phone, and the other was reading a book. Modric's face was still red, and he couldn't help but ask, "Are you sure?"
Eggsy was speechless. He put down the book and looked at Modric. Only after Modric apologized did the two of them let the topic go.
Modric thought that what he said might have really made Eggsy uncomfortable, so he apologized again and again. Eggsy said directly: "Forget it..."
The dormitory returned to peace, and then the entire dormitory fell into awkward silence again.
But after a few seconds, Eggsy scratched his head in annoyance, and half of his hair flew away as he scratched it.
"...Okay! I kind of want to know."
The two childish guys in the dormitory laughed, then Eggsy put down the book in his hand, ran to Modric's bed in slippers helplessly but curiously, and listened to the whispers Modric said.
Then Eggsy opened his eyes wide and looked at Modric in disbelief, while Modric also grinned evilly, and when he saw Eggsy's eyes widened and his face full of surprise, he laughed even more happily.
Then the two of them laughed together in the dormitory, with smiles and laughter all night long.
The most direct result was that when Eggestein and Modric woke up the next morning, both of them had painful faces and were laughing so hard.
The second day of training was really busier than the first day. Eggsy and Modric were even in the gym now, for no other reason than playing on the dance mat.
On two dance mats, two people started to dance the same steps. At first, they danced separately, but were stopped by Zidane next to them.
"I'm not asking you two to come here for paid dancing. You can't dance separately like this. You have to keep up with the rhythm and stay in sync."
Eggsy's dancing was acceptable, but Modric's was not. It was obvious that Modric had no talent for dancing. The movements Modric made could not be called dancing but acrobatics.
He even used his hands, which clearly showed that it was not because of his lack of coordination but because he was simply not used to dancing.
In comparison, their tacit training still has room for improvement. Zidane looked at the two of them dancing for several hours but still dancing separately, and he covered his head helplessly.
Even if the training is not good, the games still have to come. Of course, it is not the Champions League, but the normal round of La Liga.
The opponent of this game is Real Betis, a Serie A football club located in Seville, the capital of Andalucia, Spain. To be honest, not many people know about this club, but what we know is that we are impressed by their ambition.
This team has always spent money to buy good players, even internationals from other countries. But after buying them, it is difficult for them to adapt to their tactics and lineup. Moreover, football is a sport for 11 people. It is useless to buy only one strong player. The other 11 strong clubs will still beat you to the ground.
As a result, Real Betis often fluctuates in the La Liga. In recent years, the team has found a new owner, so they have sufficient funds to buy new players to replace their tactical lineup. This change has brought them good results. Now in the first wave of the La Liga, they have encountered Real Madrid. I don’t know whether it is good or bad.
But whether it is good or bad, Eggsy and Modric still got the starting positions in the middle and long positions, and Kroos was with them.
The three-man midfield reinforcement system is to better play the offensive trend. Zidane does not intend to hide in La Liga at the moment. After all, Ronaldo and Bale still have to increase their goal tally, so these two main forwards still have to play.
Benzema is also on the wing, and the defenders are all newcomers except Ramos and Marcelo. The most frightening thing is that the goalkeepers are all substitutes.
"This is to allow you to adapt to your new positions and verify the results of the changes in training programs and targeted training in the past few days."
Zidane looked at the nearly half new faces and said: "I also hope that you second-tier players can do better today. If you perform well, you may have a chance to be promoted to the starting lineup."
"Do you understand everything?"
"Understood!"
This was Real Madrid's first La Liga game away from home. Fortunately, they arrived at the venue a day in advance and checked into a nearby hotel. All the players had a good rest and are now full of energy.
Inside the Lopera Stadium, as the players from both teams appeared in the player tunnel, they couldn't stop cheering. The fans of Real Betis waved the red and white plaid of their home stadium to cheer and encourage their home players.
Real Madrid's away jersey is grey, and Eggsy's skin looks even whiter when he puts it on. He is now putting on his socks and adjusting the shin guards on his knees beside Modric. Modric, who is holding another shin guard, handed it to him without Eggsy's request.
The two of them didn't even need to talk, they were just exchanging glances. Just now, Ronaldo and Benzema, who were standing in front, made a subtle gesture to the two of them. Eggsy and Modric looked at each other and nodded in unison, and the tacit understanding really surprised Benzema.
