"This is the starting lineup for the next match."
"Van Nistelrooy, Robben, Raul, Higuain, Guti, Diara, Drenthe, Heinze, Pepe, Ramos, Casillas."
"Substitutes: Torres, Marcelo, Gago, De La Red, Dudek, Metzelder, Cannavaro."
Francisco read out the team roster in the locker room. After reading all the names, there was a slight commotion in the locker room. Both new and old players couldn't help but turn their eyes towards that man.
The 17-year-old prodigy, the future flag bearer of Real Madrid, Bernabeu's new favorite, Chen Zhong.
In the opening match of the new La Liga season, Chen Zhong wasn't even on the team list!
It simply didn't make sense!
Negredo, Granero, Callejon, Parejo, these Castilla rookies all looked toward Chen Zhong. Just the other day, Chen Zhong was holding a small meeting with them, encouraging them to do their best, and they all readily accepted it.
But now...
What does Schuster mean by this?
Is he playing favorites?
Why target him?
