Soccer: The Road to Extraordinary

Chapter 69 Aftermath
Back in the locker room, Yan Feng buried his head deeply in his hands.At the moment when the penalty kick flew into the goal, Yan Feng's heart was as cold and uncomfortable as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

Yan Feng was shrouded in guilt and loss.Although this foul was committed by Yan Feng when he was filling the position, he gave the opponent a penalty for it.Such a foul near the end of the game ruined the team's hope of promotion. This is the team's sinner.

The team lost because of their own fouls. This was their own big mistake, and it was their own harm to the team.

Yan Feng kept blaming himself.

The game was over, and the teammates returned to the locker room one after another.Yan Feng still buried his head in his hands. He had no face to face his teammates, let alone the emperor who trusted him.

"You trash! You know it's a foul." Zhou Li, who also returned to the locker room, sat there and became more and more angry, threw his sneakers to the ground, stood up and pointed at Yan Feng and cursed.

"I~" Yan Feng looked up and saw Zhou Lizheng angrily pointing at himself. He wanted to explain, but suddenly felt that there was no need to explain.

"You what? You rubbish. It was you who caused the team to lose. It turns out that we still had a chance to kick a penalty, but because of your foul, the team's hope of advancing was ruined. Did you charge them money? ?Give them a penalty at this most critical moment. You ruined our hard-working hopes. Are you worthy of the team and your teammates? You are the sinner of the team." Zhou Once Li opened his mouth, he couldn't stop, and the more he cursed, the worse it sounded.

The Shenzhen team players who had already returned to the locker room were stunned by Zhou Li's sudden attack on Yan Feng.Maybe it was because he was still immersed in the disappointment of losing, or maybe he knew that the final loss was due to Yan Feng's foul, and no one appeared to stop Zhou Li's behavior.

Kim Kyung-il, the captain of the game, had the responsibility to stop this conflict in the locker room.But because he couldn't understand what Zhou Li was saying, and although he could understand that Zhou Li was attacking Yan Feng, he was also very dissatisfied with Yan Feng in his heart, so he didn't stand up to calm the situation.

"Keep your mouth clean." Yan Feng was constantly insulted by Zhou Li, and he couldn't help but get angry even though he was very guilty. "The penalty kick given to the opponent was indeed my fault, but you didn't see that no one could follow Zhang Chengdong at that time. I was the one who tried my best to catch up with him."

"If it wasn't for your foul, would you have given the opponent a chance to take a penalty? You're a piece of rubbish who knows fouls and fouls, and when you're in the penalty area, you still only foul. Wouldn't you be able to defend in other ways? If you don't have that ability, don't Go up and play, don't go up and hurt the team." Zhou Li blamed Yan Feng relentlessly.

Seeing Zhou Li constantly blaming himself, Yan Feng was also very annoyed.Although it was Yan Feng who committed the foul in the end, it's very unfair to put all the responsibility on him.Yan Feng was about to refute, but at this moment someone shouted: "Stop arguing, the coach is here."

Zhou Li stopped scolding and sat back in his seat angrily.Seeing this, Yan Feng stopped talking, but sat back in his seat, lowering his head in frustration.

Li Yi, who returned to the locker room, has packed up the disappointment of losing the game, and his face has returned to calm.He saw the disappointment of the players, but he didn't know what just happened here.

"Everyone, don't be dejected. You have already played very well in this game. The BJ Guoan team is a Chinese Super League team, and they are always competing for the first place. It is normal to lose to them. Our strength is far behind them. There are too many, you can last until stoppage time before losing the game. Your performance can be said to be super-watery. I am very satisfied. Hehe, we only fought to the end before losing a small goal in this game. Many Chinese Super League teams face None of them can do this. You are all good. I applaud your performance today." At the end, Li Yi smiled and applauded the team members.

To be honest, it was expected that this game would be lost.What is surprising is that they lost the game until the final stoppage time, and there was even a chance for a penalty shootout before that. This has to be said to be a surprise.Although the team lost, Li Yi really couldn't think of a reason to blame the players.

Hearing Li Yi's words, knowing that the head coach not only didn't blame them for not keeping the game to the end, but also praised their performance, the players were relieved.Although it is inevitable that they will feel a little disappointed after losing the game, but the head coach has said so, then they will no longer feel so uncomfortable.

"Okay. Everyone, take a break and pack up your things, and then prepare to go back to the club." In the end, Li Yi asked everyone to prepare to go back to the team base.

After tidying up for a while, the players left the locker room one after another.When almost everyone left, Yan Feng still sat there with his head down and lost.

Seeing this, Li Yi sighed in his heart.Walked to Yan Feng and sat down, patted his shoulder with his hand.Said: "Yan Feng, don't do this."

"I'm sorry, Brother Yi. I hurt the team." Yan Feng felt ashamed to see the emperor, and he blamed himself very much.When facing Zhou Li's accusation just now, he could refute it, but when facing the Emperor, he felt that he was very sorry for the Emperor's trust.

"The team's loss is none of your business. It's because our team is not as strong as others."

"But I fouled and gave the opponent a penalty kick. If it weren't for my foul, the team would have been able to take a penalty kick against BJ Guoan, and maybe they could have eliminated them with a penalty kick." Yan Feng saw that the emperor didn't blame himself , I felt even more guilty.

"The responsibility for that ball is not yours. You only showed up when you were actively covering the position. The responsibility should be on the back line. They failed to see Zhang Chengdong who inserted in the back. You are the late back. It's not your fault. "

"However, if it wasn't for my foul, I wouldn't have given the opponent a penalty. If I hadn't fouled at the time, it wouldn't have happened." Yan Feng hated his lack of defensive ability. If he could have a better defense There will be no such fouls with technology.

"Don't take it to heart. It's really not your fault. The responsibility for this penalty is not entirely yours. Besides, the game is over, it's over. It's just a game that didn't have much hope. You performed very well, much better than before. You have to focus on the next game, I hope you can perform better." Li Yi patted Yan Feng on the shoulder again and explained.He is the head coach of the team, and he understands what is going on when the team loses.Although Yan Feng was responsible for the last ball, the biggest responsibility was the physical exhaustion of the entire defense line.Yan Feng is actively filling the position, the fault is that his technique is not good enough.

"Thank you, Brother Yi. I am afraid that I will betray your trust." Yan Feng was very moved.Compared to Zhou Li who accused him, the Great Emperor, who is the coach, had more reason to criticize him.Unexpectedly, not only did the emperor not blame himself, but he continued to understand himself.This moved Yan Feng very much.In addition to being moved, Yan Feng also felt very ashamed of his trust in the emperor.

"Just play well. I have always been optimistic about you." Li Yi said with a smile. "I'll pack up and go back to the club base next time. I have to hurry up and rest. There will be a league game in two days."

"En." Yan Feng nodded in praise.After tidying up his mood, he tidied up his things and boarded the team bus behind Li Yi, and was sent back to the base by the bus.

Since this is a FA Cup game, the FA Cup didn't get much attention originally, but because this game was played against the famous Chinese Super League team BJ Guoan, it was also featured on the homepages of major media.

Since the score and results of this competition are quite tortuous, it is still full of news reports.Many fans who follow the Chinese Super League and BJ Guoan also watch this sports news.

Taking advantage of this opportunity to be on the front page of the news, Yan Feng finally showed his face in front of the general public.His name was mentioned twice in the news, but he appeared on TV only once, which was the last red card.

There is only one chance for Yan Feng to show his face in the video, but the time lasts for about ten seconds.From the foul card, to being ejected and stopped to watch the penalty kick, it was replayed repeatedly.

The disappointed expression in that video deeply hurt Yan Feng's heart.

Leaving the scene and re-watching the video of his foul at the time on the Internet afterwards.There is a kind of entanglement in watching yourself make mistakes, trying to correct yourself but being powerless.

"Hey, my skills are still not good enough."

It's good to be on TV, but it's too uncomfortable to be on TV in this way of being someone else's background.

Yan Feng was very depressed, why was it a good thing for Lin Fan to be on TV before?But now that Lin Fan finally didn't block his light, it was so sad that he could be on TV?

Yan Feng was depressed when the phone rang.He picked it up and sighed depressingly. "It's true that you can't talk about people during the day, and you can't read ghosts at night. I just thought of Lin Fan, and this kid came here. It's scary."

"Hehe. Brother Feng. Good evening." Lin Fan's grinning voice came.

"Good evening, brat. Why are you free to call me today?" They are all good brothers, but Yan Feng, who is depressed, is not so good.

"Hehe, I'm here to congratulate Brother Feng."

"Where does joy come from? I am almost sad now."

"Hee hee, Brother Feng, do you know that you're on TV today?" Lin Fan said exactly as Yan Feng expected, that's what happened.

"Stinky boy, I am so miserable today and you still come to make a fool of me. I am making a fool of myself in front of the people of the whole country, and you kid still come to laugh at me. You are not a brother." Yan Feng said a little depressed.But he didn't blame Lin Fan, knowing that the other party didn't really come to make fun of him.Instead, he was comforting him in another way like a brother.

"You can be content. I don't even have a chance to show my face on TV now."

"How can this be showing your face? It's obviously embarrassing. I don't care about it." Joking with Lin Fan, the mood gradually became less uncomfortable.

"Don't. Brother Feng, this is going to be on TV anyway. Don't you see that those entertainment stars are trying their best to blackmail themselves in order to get on the news? It doesn't matter whether it's good or bad, it's good news if it's on TV."

"Go. Hey, people are more popular than people. I think when you were here, when I performed well and made the news, you were the one who reported it all. As for me, I either didn't say it, or it would be no good if I said it." Think Thinking about it, Yan Feng was a little jealous of Lin Fan.

"Haha, there's no way, who told me I'm a genius!" Lin Fan's voice was still smug. "However, to be honest, Brother Feng. Let's not take this matter to heart today. It is inevitable that there will be mistakes in the game. Besides, I have checked the foul. You are the one who is responsible for the late linebacker."

"Well. I'm fine." Although Yan Feng was still a little brooding about this matter.But at this time, if you think about it calmly, there is nothing wrong with your choice at that time.

Of course, if his skills were better and his judgments more accurate, the ball might not be a foul.

After chatting with Lin Fan for a while, we hung up.After teasing each other with Lin Fan, the mood is no longer so bad.However, I am still very dissatisfied with my technology.Want to improve but suffer from no better way.
