my football i call the shots

"Don't sleep too hard at noon, and more! You have brought all your things! Don't have to change your sneakers when they are broken, or you have to replace your jersey if it is torn..."

Not long after lunch, Cao Chen ran to the area where the boys lived, knocking on the door and thinking about it. Of course, Cao Chen was also worried that the boys would have already entered the nap state later, and if they went to make a noise later It would be troublesome to wake up the boys. After all, there was a game in the afternoon, so it was very important to catch up on sleep at noon.

In order to make the lads' nap more quality, Cao Chen also arranged about an hour of relaxation training this morning. The training content and training volume are very common items, such as simple shooting drills, pile training...of course Cao Chen didn't expect the one-hour training in the morning to make the boys' skills improve by leaps and bounds. It was mainly to make the boys sweat and relieve the nervous tension before the game.

Of course, everyone understands that heavy training sessions are not allowed on race day.Not to mention the day of the game, even two days before the game, the training volume of Nanhu No. [-] Middle School has been controlled by Cao Chen within a reasonable range, which can give the boys a breather.

After all, after entering the group stage, it will enter the frequency of "after playing a game, three days apart, and continue to the next game". It is impossible for the Nanhu No. [-] Middle School team to "twice a day" like it did when they first arrived in Guangfu. "Practice" high-frequency training, including various physical training, strength training, and confrontation training will also be stopped!
Under such a tight schedule, whether the physical fitness of the boys can be fully recovered before the start of the next game is a problem. How can it be possible to continue these high-consuming training programs?
After entering the group stage, the training focus of Nanhu No. 03 High School Team will also shift to tactical drills and recovery training. Of course, the most pressing problem at present is not these, but how to play well at 30:[-] in the afternoon. In the University City Sports Center, the first round match against Guangfu Provincial Experimental Middle School!
If they can take down the strongest opponent in this group and get a "good start", it will undoubtedly be a good thing for the next game of Nanhu No. [-] Middle School.

As for the result, it depends on the performance of the boys after 3:[-] in the afternoon!
Since the game time is 3:10, which is the same as that of professional teams, Cao Chen had no choice but to arrange for the boys to have lunch at 11:[-]. After [-]:[-], the hotel returned to calm again. Everyone went to sleep.

Although I can't sleep for a long time, in fact, the sleep of more than two hours is still very helpful for the boys to perform in the game this afternoon.

As the head coach of the team, Cao Chen dared not sleep.

First, Cao Chen is afraid that he may have overslept. Second, in fact... this afternoon, in the first round match against the Provincial Experimental Middle School, Cao Chen has not yet decided on his starting list, or even the main lineup. Woolen cloth.

I saw Cao Chen and Xiao Wang shut in the conference hall, continuing to do research on the team's starting lineup and formation today.

……

Xiao Wang lay down on the conference table listlessly, with a look of unrequited love that made people feel like they couldn't help laughing. Not only that, Xiao Wang even muttered and complained in a coquettish voice: "Oh Coach Cao, I’m so sleepy! I usually go to bed at noon, so I’m not used to not having to sleep today!”

"What are you sleeping on! Are you still in the mood to sleep at this time???"

Cao Chen rolled his eyes at Xiao Wang. At this time, Cao Chen was not in the mood to joke with Xiao Wang. After all, there were only less than five hours left before the first round of the match, and the lineup and formation of Nanhu No. [-] Middle School , he hasn't decided yet.

Of course, this is not a problem of Cao Chen's short-circuited brain, but, during this period of time, Nanhu No. [-] Middle School has been constantly changing various staffing methods in the training class, constantly adapting the team's three main formations. The boys on the team have been polished by Cao Chen to the point that they no longer need to think about any tacit understanding of the team!
Therefore, as long as Cao Chen defines the lineup and formation, the boys will be able to complete the connection seamlessly. Therefore, Cao Chen dared to be so self-willed and began to consider the team's starting lineup less than five hours before the game. Rosters and tactical formations.

Regarding Cao Chen's indecisive state, Xiao Wang also continued to complain sleepily: "By the way, Coach Cao, when did you become so hesitant? Sigh! Didn't you decide before? I think you The previous starting lineup and formation were pretty good."

"No, no, no..."

Cao Chen's head shook like a rattle, and he frowned and explained to Xiao Wang: "Recently, I've been thinking about whether the position of the right back should be Southeast? Or Ah Yu? You have also seen the state of A Yu in the recent training class, it is really hot!!! Now, A Yu's one-on-one defense on the right can even barely restrict Xiao Yi!"

Listening to Cao Chen's words, Xiao Wang also responded helplessly: "That's it, then let Ah Yu start, since Ah Yu is in such a good condition."

"Tsk, this..." Cao Chen didn't nod his head to show his approval, but Cao Chen's brows were still furrowed, and he continued to explain: "Of course, I'm not saying that Southeast's condition is not good. Plugging in the offense is a very important supplement to our team's offensive system, and Southeast's recovery speed is fast. Generally, if the opponent breaks through, there is often room for recovery..."

"Hey! Coach Cao, please calm down for a while, and listen to me first?"

Well, Xiao Wang also felt a little puzzled, because Xiao Wang understood that Cao Chen had already made a choice in his heart, and the hesitation at this time was more due to the little anxiety before the game.

So, Xiao Wang said to Cao Chen with a serious face: "Coach Cao, listen to me, take a deep breath first... come, follow me, inhale ~ exhale... yes! Go on and do it again! Inhale ~exhale~"

After taking four or five deep breaths with Cao Chen, Xiao Wang continued to say to Cao Chen, "Actually, Coach Cao, you already have a choice in your heart! This is because you were a little anxious just now, so The resulting hesitation in choosing. After taking a deep breath now, don’t you feel much more comfortable?”

"Um???"

Although Cao Chen was confused by Xiao Wang's words, he had to say that indeed, after taking a deep breath, Cao Chen's mind and body could obviously feel relaxed, and the little problems that bothered him just now were also relieved. Immediately resolved one by one.

"Indeed..."

Cao Chen then sighed helplessly: "Oh! It would be great if I played the game by myself! As the head coach, there are too many problems to worry about, and what's more, the team is still a group of people who say they are big or not. A child who is not young... well, it is really tiring to be a father and a mother at the same time."

After confessing a few words in his heart, Cao Chen nodded silently, smiled at Xiao Wang and said, "Yeah! Still follow the lineup and formation I told you before! Actually, except for the center position , the main players in other positions have maintained a very good state, and there is basically no need to consider rotation. Now, our biggest problem is Ziyang!"

"Ziyang's problem..."

Xiao Wang nodded half understanding and said: "If you follow the lineup you told me before, then you really don't plan to let Ziyang start? Didn't Dr. Kang say that Ziyang recovered well? Let Ziyang play halftime in the first round? Why don't you consider letting Ziyang start and make substitutions after the intermission?"

"not like this!"

Regarding Xiao Wang's question, Cao Chen shook his head very resolutely, no longer having hesitant emotions like before.

Xiao Wang was also puzzled and continued to ask: "Uh, why???"

"It's very simple, I use a four-character idiom to describe it-Tian Ji horse racing!!!"

"Tian Ji horse racing!!!" Xiao Wang's eyes lit up immediately: "So! You plan to wait until the players from the Provincial Experimental Middle School have exhausted their energy, and then replace Ziyang, and let Ziyang attack the opponent's defense. Is it going to have an unexpected effect???"

"Almost..." Cao Chen nodded slightly, and continued: "Also, I need to consider protecting Ziyang's body, after all, he has not fully recovered. Generally speaking, the first half of the confrontation The degree will be a little more intense due to the abundance of physical fitness, combined with these factors, I finally decided to put Ziyang on the bench first."

"Indeed, this is the best choice..."

Xiao Wang gave a thumbs up in admiration, and couldn't help but clicked his tongue and said, "Look, Coach Cao, isn't my deep breathing therapy effective? Look, you're back to normal."

"hey-hey……"

Cao Chen also seemed a little embarrassed by Xiao Wang's remarks. He shrugged helplessly and said, "That's probably it. Let's just talk to the boys in the car. Okay. I'm sleepy after lunch, sleep! Sleep! Let's go!"

"Okay!!!"

...At 1:[-] p.m. that day...

According to Cao Chen's request, the 23 young men from the school team picked up their things on time, and the chartered car from the competition committee came early enough. According to the driver, it was only afternoon when we came to Nanhu No. 1 Middle School Hotel to worry about traffic jams. It was [-] o'clock, but the boys did not dare to get on the bus without the signal from Cao Chen or Xiao Wang, so they could only wait near the bus for Cao Chen and Xiao Wang to come.

Although Cao Chen and Xiao Wang were a little late, they were not late.

After leaving the hotel, Xiao Wang also hurriedly reminded the boys: "Have you brought all your things? Replacement jerseys? Replacement sneakers? Need equipment? After stepping on the field yesterday, go to the competition committee Participation certificate obtained by signing? All brought together, no problem, right???”

"No problem!!!"

The lads also nodded in various affirmations, and some of the more cautious lads hurriedly looked through the things in their schoolbags at the door to make sure that they had brought them all, and there were no other problems, so they breathed a sigh of relief.

Xiao Wang counted the number of people again and again, and after confirming that none of the boys from the school team was left behind, he nodded and said: "That's all right, everyone get on the bus first! After getting on the bus, don't get off if there is no special situation." Come on, don't wait until the car leaves, it won't be good if you are still in the hotel."

When Xiao Wang was emphasizing some trivial matters with the boys, Cao Chen and Dr. Kang Yulai came out of the hotel belatedly.At this time, Xiao Wang seemed to have thought of something, and quickly slipped to Cao Chen's side.

"Uh, Coach Cao, the players are all here, and now only the team leader, Mr. Li Wen, is left..."

"That person ignores him!!!"

Cao Chen shook his head resolutely. It could be seen from his serious face that Cao Chen completely ignored the so-called team leader.

After all, during the late winter training period in Nanhu and the time when he first came to Guangfu, Teacher Li Wen's behavior was really disgusting, all kinds of unreasonable troubles, all kinds of unreasonable tit-for-tat, which made Cao Chen hear Li Wen later. After the name Wen, they all snorted instantly.

But this teacher Li Wen is still considered "knowledgeable". Not long after he directly fell out with Cao Chen in the first preparation meeting after arriving in Guangfu, Teacher Li Wen chose to move out of the hotel where the school team was stationed and no longer Paying attention to the matter of Nanhu No. [-] High School team, and on the same day that Mr. Li Wen moved out, the principal also called Cao Chen. The content was roughly: Teacher Li Wen will not be with the school team due to personal affairs Living.

Moreover, the principal also tactfully signaled to Cao Chen: If you can tolerate Teacher Li Wen a little more, please be more tolerant. After all, Teacher Li Wen also has the slightest relationship with him. Don't make me too Embarrassed.

Not only that, the principal also "generously" entrusted the full power of the school team to Cao Chen, including the relevant team leader work that should have been in charge of Mr. Li Wen before, all of which were all packaged and handed over to Cao Chen and the younger brother. Wang has full power to deal with it.

Listening to the principal's words, Cao Chen suddenly realized: It turned out that the principal's appreciation for Li Wen, who reused this small belly, was not because of his outstanding ability, but because he had some relatives with the principal.

But since the principal said that Mr. Li Wen has such a slight relationship with him, Cao Chen acted suddenly.Immediately afterwards, the principal also signaled: I'm quite busy recently, waiting for the next three rounds of the group stage, I will definitely rush to Guangfu to watch the school team's match on the spot.

Hearing this, Cao Chen began to curse inwardly: "This school is on holiday, what else can you do for a big fat man who is usually leisurely and leisurely? Besides, even if you usually have to study, it doesn't necessarily mean that you are busy with anything." What happened! After all, I knew that Nanhu No. [-] High School team played against strong teams in the first and second rounds, so I didn’t dare to come and watch the game in order to save face!”

Of course, Cao Chen didn't try to expose such self-evident polite words.

But anyway, the principal probably explained the situation of Mr. Li Wen, so Cao Chen didn't care whether the dude named "team leader" was doing his job well.

So Cao Chen said to Xiao Wang very firmly: "That kind of team leader, even if he comes over, I won't let him go with us in the car! The boys are all there, and we will get on the car and set off. Already!"

"Uh, Coach Cao, are you really sure... you really left Teacher Li Wen behind???"

"I am very sure!!!"

"OK then……"

Seeing that Cao Chen's attitude was so persistent, Xiao Wang stopped asking questions and helped Dr. Kang Yulai carry some medical equipment and medicine boxes into the car.

After confirming that there were no problems with the number of people in the car, Cao Chen signaled the driver to drive.

The 26 members of the Nanhu No. [-] High School Team galloped to the University City Sports Center in such a mighty way. Of course, this time is still a bit early, but in Cao Chen's opinion, it is better to arrive half an hour earlier. An hour and an hour is better than too tight a time criterion. After all, after everyone has passed, if they have time, they can do some field training again, so as to feel the atmosphere of a professional-level stadium with spectators present.
