I confess it: I also needed the day off. And I think I'm not the only one. In the middle of the maelstrom that means covering the Real Madrid, Although we try to reach all teams herein it Club World Cup (Press wheels, training sessions, tight agendas and the constant search for headlines), sometimes we forget that everyone, absolutely all of us who are here, need to disconnect even a simple afternoon. And is that Raphinha's visionhowever advantageous, it has no failure. Because although he always raises the voice that is outside … The reality is that players should already be enjoying their vacations.
The Brazilian crack is right, but halfway. I would have liked to know his opinion by playing Barça the tournament. And if you ask the main actors who have traveled to play the first club World Cup in history …. I want to find a footballer who says he does not feel like being here. And is that at this level of competitiveness, It will always be better to fight for a title, Although the rest of the professionals are in Ibiza enjoying lifeto have to See the games from the couch or from the yacht on duty.
A day free of Madrid players that serve a lot. Something that is very clear Xabi Alonso and his entire coaching staff. Kylian smiled again in the middle of a bowl that made him feel indestructible again (Not bad his 139 points to destroy his friends). Others walked barefoot on the seash They simply sat down to share a meal with whom they love. They are moments that do not come out in statistics, but that influence performance.
A free day that everyone needed here. I could at least walk without hurry, leave the laptop closed for a few hours and observe a part of Miami that I did not know. And his outlets, of course. I had to meet my relatives' demands. And it is that to continue telling it well, we also, the journalists, We need air, silence and another perspective. It is not about frivolity, or unnecessary relaxation. It's about balance. Knowing that the coaching staff understands that to reach 100%, sometimes you have to Allow a decrease in revolutions. And I would say that mental rest is almost as important as the physicist.
