Chapter 75 The Belarusians Are Coming

A plane landed at Ljubljana Airport and stopped.A group of young men wearing sportswear got off the plane. They came here to play against our opponents in the 2007 Euro [-] qualifying match - the Belarus team.

The number one star in the team, Alexander Hleb, straightened his hat with his hands, smiled slightly, and stepped off the plane.Although this Belarusian team does not have any big-name stars, thanks to the efforts of Hleb, all players live in harmony. Everyone is working hard in training and playing. When it's time to work hard, even if the Belarusian team's status in European football is not high, it can often make some top teams very uncomfortable. It is a famous crap hockey team.

Our battle with them was a battle of comparable strength, but we are at home, and for us, if we can't get all six points from the Belarus team, it is impossible to qualify for the European Cup qualifiers.After all, it is almost impossible to defeat the Netherlands, and it is also very difficult to defeat Romania and Bulgaria.So we have to fight against Belarus, Albania and Luxembourg, if we can get 18 points in the games against these three teams, then we can win against Holland, Romania and Bulgaria Two draws or two wins, then we are very hopeful to qualify for the group stage.After all, there are no underdogs in Europe, even the Netherlands, sometimes capsized in the group stage, and Bulgaria did not make it to the 2006 World Cup, let alone Romania, which has not made it to the European Cup for a long time.Although their strength is stronger than ours, in general, it is not impossible for us to be upset, and Belarus and Albania also have a certain amount of upset strength. Even the small country of Luxembourg has had a big upset. , so our hope lies in these unpopular ones.

Belarus has Hleb, we have Handanovic.The position of these two people happens to be the shadow striker and the goalkeeper. When the time comes, the fight between these two people will turn into a duel of spear and shield, which is very interesting to think about.When Handanovic threw Hleb to shoot, it was time for me, Zago Jeruhovic, to lead the team to play a quick counterattack and score a lore game.

They were already here, stationed in a five-star hotel in Ljubljana.It's not close to the training ground we arranged for them, but it's not far from the competition venue. In just three more days, we will fight against them!
My characteristic lies in my speed. I can run 11 meters in less than [-] seconds, and I am famous in Slovenia in terms of absolute speed.Although I haven't reached the level of participating in the Olympics, the coach of the Slovenian national track and field team did come to me and wanted me to practice the [-]-meter race.The athletes of the Slovenian national track and field team are actually not much faster than me. If I practice sprinting skills in the track and field team, maybe I can become the fastest runner in Slovenia.But what I love most is football. My heart is always on football. Instead of going to the track and field team to practice boring sprints, playing football makes me happier.

Because my speed is not based on the stride frequency, but on the stride length, which requires a lot of strength as an auxiliary. Moreover, my height is very high, reaching 1 meters, so in running , There are advantages in confrontation.As for technique, that's not my style. I just need to attack and shoot. The powerful "wave shooting" practiced in the sea is my greatest strength as a striker!

On this day, when we were training, an uninvited guest came.

"Who are you? This is where the Slovenian national team trains. You are not allowed to come in and out at will!" Our training base has guards. He saw a car driving towards the training base and got off. Slovenian man.In order to protect us, the guards quickly circled around, holding their batons tightly in their hands, and watching who came.

"I'm Alexander Hleb from the Belarusian national team. I want to see Coach Kok. If he allows, can I go in?" The man laughed.

"What, he is Hleb? Hleb, the number one star of the Belarusian team?" The guards were stunned when they heard these words, and even I, who was warming up nearby, was stunned——Hleb, he As the number one star of the Belarusian team, what exactly do you want to do when you come to the training ground of the Slovenian team?Could it be that you want to snoop on information?However, which team would let their country's number one star serve as an intelligence spy, and would say it openly?I'm afraid it's impossible!So, what did Hleb come to see Coach Kok for?

I saw the guard go to report, and soon, Coach Kok came to the gate of the training ground, saw Hleb, and welcomed him very warmly: "It turned out to be Hleb, it's a pleasure to meet you. Before the war, You actually came to me to reminisce about the past, it seems that the management of your national team is still very lax!"

"Hehe, isn't it the same for you, Coach Kok? If you let me in, aren't you afraid that I will inquire about the entire Slovenian national team?"

"I don't know what information you can inquire about? You just have itchy feet, and you want to find someone to challenge you!"

"Oh, you can't hide anything from Mr. Kirk. Hahaha. Yes, I came today to compete with the best player in your Slovenian team!"

"Since this is the case, then you come here! You can choose whoever you want!"

"If I don't choose, I will try to defeat all of you alone. Mr. Kirk, do you dare to take up the challenge?"

"Hmph, if I say I shouldn't fight, you will secretly call me a coward in your heart! However, I also have strong soldiers and generals under my command! Among other things, you can fight against Handanovic's defense. A goal?"

"Whether you can score a goal under his defense, you have to ask him himself! It's not like you don't know how powerful my shot is. If Handanovic can't defend my ball, what will you do?"

"Well, if your shot is saved by Handanovic, then you are a real braggart. I don't believe that you can pass our team by yourself and pass the goalkeeper. , or get rid of the goalkeeper's defense and score a goal, then I will completely convince you. Hleb, I believe, you can't do it."

"Haha, it doesn't matter if you can do it or you can't do it, you have to try to know. Coach Kok, I'm here!

Hleb jumped up, rushed through the gate, and rushed directly to us who were warming up on the court!
