There is a belief called football

Chapter 94

Guangzhou Tianbao stayed in one of the best five-star hotels in Shanghai. The hotel’s service was also considerate, because Stan had ordered his players to have breakfast together, and the hotel specially prepared breakfasts for each player that fit their national characteristics.

This is the practice of Stan leading the team, and he usually doesn't care about it, but during the few days of the game day, everyone stays in the hotel together, so they must have breakfast together. Stan thinks this is a good way to communicate problems and connect with each other.

Because the recent games have been so smooth, they are all hearty victories with a goal difference of more than 4 goals, and the relationship between the players is also super harmonious. A famous coach once said, "The secret of how to make the team atmosphere harmonious is to win."

The scene of Ferguson's flying shoe Beckham was actually a breakdown of the relationship between master and apprentice on the one hand, and pressure on performance on the other. If it was the old Sir Alex who won the Triple Crown, he would be soft-hearted when he won the championship, and his temper would probably be like Santa Claus.

At this time, everyone was chatting, reading newspapers, playing with mobile phones, drinking coffee, and having a pleasant breakfast, when suddenly a person yelled and everyone looked up, it was Prahimi.

"I don't want Daliba, I have been eating Daliba for almost 20 years," Brahimi said to the hotel staff.

It turned out that the hotel was very thoughtful. Knowing that Prahimi is an Algerian, he has been living in Ukraine, so he specially prepared a Ukrainian breakfast for him. Unexpectedly, such a breakfast, Prahimi was tired of it. It’s like a Chinese who has been eating soy milk fritters for breakfast every day for 20 years. Then he went to the United States once and the hotel gave you soy milk fritters, which would make people very angry. At this time, Prahimi felt like this.

Nekonan on the side took a piece of Daliba and said, "This is Daliba", then tasted it, shook his head, and said, "It's dry, thick, and not tasty."

Everyone laughed looking at Nei Kenan, including the hotel staff.

"Well, Mr. Prahimi, what would you like to eat"?
Prahimi looked at the Xiaolong Tangbao in front of Li Qiao and said, "What's that?"
"Oh, that's Xiao Long Tang Bao", the staff replied.

"Be the same as him."

The matter was settled, the joke was read, and everyone lowered their heads to do their own things, but within a few minutes, there was another shout: "Ah.".

Everyone looked up and saw that it was Prahimi again. It turned out that the soup in the freshly baked soup dumpling was very hot. Unbeknownst to Prahimi, he took a bite and it burned.

Everyone sees that Prahimi is really funny.

Seeing everyone laughing at him, Prahimi was very embarrassed. Seeing this, Li Qiao swapped the cold dumpling in front of him with the one in front of Prahimi, and let him eat the cold one.

Prahimi looked at Li Qiao gratefully, Li Qiao said: "Eat quickly, stop making trouble."

Stan also helped Brahimi out of the siege, "Hope our game tonight is as happy as breakfast."

Everyone laughed, after all, the boss of the team still wanted to cheer.

"The Shanghai team kicks off first," Shen Fangjian said.

"Oh, it's still an old problem. It's playing against Guangzhou Tianbao. If you can't pass the midfield, the ball will be lost." Seeing that the Shanghai team lost possession of the ball at the beginning, Shen Fangjian said regretfully.

"There is no way to do this. The main reason is that Guangzhou Tianbao's two defensive midfielders have too much control. If this position is controlled, then the possession of the ball will be controlled," Tao Wei said.

"No wonder Guardiola said that if you give him 100 midfielders, he won't be too many," Shen Fangjian said.

At this time, Nei Kenan took the ball and basically didn't need to look at it, he just gave it to Kongka in front.

"This is Kongka's first official match for Guangzhou Tianbao," said Shen Fangjian.

"Stan let him play in the first game. It should be that Kongka's jet lag is at least reversed, and there is no problem with his body," Tao Wei said.

After Conca took the ball, he looked up, and immediately made a through pass to Recoba on the right. Unfortunately, the force was a little too strong, and Recoba didn't get the ball.

Recoba gave Conca a thumbs up, indicating that the pass was good.

"Well, when Kongka gives the ball to Recoba, he should give it to his feet as much as possible. Recoba can't let Recoba fight for speed. After all, time is not forgiving. If it is for Li Qiao on the left, the ball just now may be just right," Shen Fangjian said.

"Yes, it's like when Effenberg was in Wolfsburg and Baggio was in Brescia, the teammates passed the ball to the veteran, basically to the foot of the ball," Tao Wei said.

*****
The head coach of the Shanghai team has seen the last game, and he knows that it is impossible to score 1 point in this game, but after all, playing at home, if Guangzhou Tianbao wants to humiliate himself, he will never allow it.

Therefore, the Shanghai team's defense was very rough on the field. In the first 5 minutes of the game, Kongka was violated twice and the opponent also received two yellow cards.

Stan understood it at a glance. The opponent knew that Guangzhou Tianbao will play in the AFC Champions League next Tuesday, so they deliberately played in a rough way. That means, let’s be kind, and you will play in the AFC Champions League next week in peace. If you want to play like the last game, I’m sorry, then I’m sorry.

But Stan's temper is like this, if no one offends me, I won't offend him. At this moment, Stan looked at the opposing head coach, turned back to the bench, and said, "Prahimi warms up."

Prahimi was a little stunned. Before the game, the assistant coach "Pekovic" clearly told himself that this game is not important. How can he let himself warm up after only playing for a few minutes?

But the military order was like a mountain, and Prahimi put on a yellow vest and warmed up on the sidelines.

At 15 minutes into the game, the taste was not right. The original football game turned into a rugby game. The field was turned upside down. Conca had been shoveled several times, and the team doctor also entered the field several times. Following Guangzhou Tianbaolai’s visiting team fans booed, but there were not many of them, and these boos were quickly buried in the cheers of the home fans.

"Prahimi come here," Stan yells

Brahimi took off the yellow vest of the substitute and was ready to play.

Stan held the tactical board and said while drawing: "Can you play the midfielder?"
Prahimi shook his head.

"It's okay, I'll teach you now, that's it, you get the ball, either give it to Li Qiao or Recoba, you know."

Prahimi nodded.

"If the other party bumps into you, do you know what to do"?
Prahimi shook his head again.

"Remember yesterday when you and Nekonan played? Yes, that's it, but be careful not to make redundant movements."

"Okay, coach," Prahimi replied simply.

*****
"Just 20 minutes into the first half, Guangzhou Tianbao made a substitution, which is unique in previous games," Shen Fangjian said.

"Maybe Kongka was injured, otherwise substitutions are rare at this time," Tao Wei said.

"Indeed, Shanghai's marking of Conca was very good today. The Brazilian MVP was injured and left the field without a threatening kick," Shen Fangjian said.

"The player who played was another transfer from Dynamo Kiev. His name was Brahimi. Judging by his skin color, he should be an immigrant player," Shen Fangjian continued.

"Look at that body, it doesn't look like a midfielder," Tao Wei said.

"Judging from the position of registration, it is also a midfielder," Shen Fangjian said.

"If Konca was injured, Stan did not let Hassler play, but chose the midfielder to play as the front midfielder. This arrangement may become the focus of discussion after the game," Tao Wei said.

*****
When Konka saw his name displayed on the substitution card, he was very disappointed. He was the MVP of the Brazilian League, but he came to the Chinese League and was replaced in the first half of the first game.

Conca walked slowly to the sidelines, enduring boos from the audience.

Instead of high-fiving Brahimi, he walked up to Stan and said "why" straight across his face.

Stan didn't explain it to him, as a coach, leave the explanation after the game, "Go take a shower".

Fortunately, Kongka has also calmed down now, remembering that it is the bounden duty of the players to obey the coach, he shook his head and went to the player tunnel.

After Brahimi came on the field, he occupied the position of Kongka's midfielder. It was the first time he played the midfielder. Brahimi still had a little expectation in his heart.

When the game resumed, it was still the same, with midfield fights, people on their backs, and a rugby look, but the No. 16 who played really looked like a rugby player.

Nekonan took the ball, and the coach made a gesture, meaning to pass the ball bigger. Although Nekonan was puzzled, he followed suit. This time, the ball to the front midfielder was a little stronger, so that Prahimi needed to grab the ball with the opponent's midfielder.

When the opponent saw Brahimi's figure, his heart tightened, and Brahimi looked like he was sprinting with all his strength. Just like that, the two grabbed the ball at the same time, and the result was that the Shanghai team members flew out.

This is a [-]-[-] kick, which is a reasonable collision, and Brahimi did not foul.

At this time, Prahimi was like a tank, knocking one into the air, still not satisfied, and continued to dribble forward.

The members of the Shanghai team were a little dumbfounded. The coach's arrangement before the game was to defend the opponent's midfielder closely and not hesitate to foul, but the black tank in front of him fouled?
Prahimi thought to himself, "It seems that I can rush all the way to the door." At this time, Prahimi looked at Li Qiao, "I'm sorry, Joe, I will go first, and I will pass the next one to you."

The players on the field were stunned, but the coach, who was a bystander, was very sober and immediately whistled to let the defenders defend in advance.

When the opponent saw that Prahimi was coming, he had no choice but to throw himself into Brahimi's arms. Although this was ugly, this was the only way to prevent him.

Of course, the result was a yellow card, plus a free kick in front of the penalty area.

Unexpectedly, the opponent hit Brahimi on his own initiative, but he was injured himself. The teammates came over and gave Brahimi a thumbs up to show that he was doing well, but Prahimi still felt that he had not scored a goal, which was a loss.

In this way, Guangzhou Tianbao got a free kick in a fairly good position, and Recoba's free kick scoring rate in this position turned out to be a terrifying 60%.
