[Football] Crown of Thorns

Bovista vs. Vishina at home.

Maybe it's because this is the first game of the two teams in the new season, or maybe it's because the long vacation has caused many players to fall into a period of burnout. Gao, this made the coaches of both sides look a little dissatisfied, standing on the sidelines and shouting at the players.

It's just that the voices of the coaches did not reach the ears of most players due to the shouts of the fans, and the pace of the game was always a bit slow.

Gama, carrying No. 17, let out a breath, looked at the opponent's goal in front of him, and slowly stepped back.

Just now he managed to pass a good ball, but his teammate made a mistake and passed the ball to the opponent's feet. Fortunately, the opponent's movements were not very smart, and the football was knocked out of bounds.

At this time, Gama heard the voice of the coach on the sidelines.

He turned his head and met the coach's eyes.

Noticing that the young guy in his midfield had noticed him, coach Pettit also knew that the shouting players probably couldn't hear what he was shouting, so he made several hand gestures to signal Gama to tell his teammates to Control the rhythm, pay attention to the coordination of the midfield and the front court, etc.

After Gama nodded to show that he understood, Petit lowered his arm.

At this time, the opponent's goalkeeper just sent the ball.

The football flew through the air and passed straight to the center circle.

Gama looked up in the direction the football was flying, and while he quickly calculated the landing point in his mind, he rushed over.

During this long summer break, he has been working hard every day, trying to make up for lost time, football awareness and technique.

The boy who once claimed to be the number one in technology may not be as good as those South American boys, but he is indeed superior in technology to his former teammates. He also found that Gama's own conditions are quite good, just because his nutrition can't keep up with his physical fitness. Worse.Although two months is only a little stronger than the original body, but playing in the First Division, he can already keep up.

It's just that the problem is not here.

He didn't cooperate with his teammates too much. After all, he didn't know how Gama and his teammates trained and cooperated in the past. In addition, there were new teammates playing together. Before the official game, they only played four warm-up games. Sai, the familiarity is really not high.

Therefore, in the first three and 10 minutes of the first half, his performance was only quite satisfactory, with few mistakes but not conspicuous.

Can't go on like this.

Squeeze away the opponent, jump high and head the ball down, then pass it to the teammate running next to him, and then quickly follow up when his feet fall down.

There was applause and whistles of approval from the stands.

After watching the team's mediocre game for more than 30 minutes, the fans of the home team rarely saw this beautiful header steal, and they also applauded this young player.

Now they all know who is the young man wearing the No. 17 jersey in the new season. After all, in the last game of last season, the scene where the poor young man was knocked down by his teammates and fell into a coma is still the same as last season's football In the scene in the collection, it is said that the young man was sent to the hospital for treatment due to short-term amnesia.

Well, in any case, the youth player Gama has gained a certain reputation among his fans because of that game-of course, poor Gama must not want to become famous in this way.

"It looks pretty good."

After a brief cheer, the fans in the stands talked a lot.

"Just hope he can still perform well."

A man who looked like a senior fan said with a deep expression.

The man with a big beard next to him smiled and waved the flag sticker in his hand, "Encourage the children, they are from our own youth training."

The fans around burst into laughter.

Compared with players transferred from outside, loyal fans are of course more inclined to their own children trained by their own youth training.

At this time, the first half of the game has entered 10 minutes, and the situation on the court between the two sides is still in a stalemate, but the rhythm and performance of the players have gradually improved, probably entering the accustomed rhythm of the game!

The young man wiped his sweat by pulling up the hem of his clothes, then raised his arms, signaling to his teammates who were in possession of the ball to pass the ball.

If it was his original teammate, he would not pass the ball to him. Fortunately, the No. 8 player who controls the ball is the newly transferred Diego Forlan (the same name rate of Portuguese-speaking people is also scary) After looking up at the situation on the field, he slammed and the ball was passed from the middle.

He stopped the ball with his chest, and before the ball hit the ground, Gama flicked the ball lightly and flew over the opponent's head. Then he shouldered the opponent and rushed over sideways, received the ball, and passed it.

The ball flew from the side to the forward field, and his No. 7 forward Jose Manuel da Silva Fernandez Zemanel (JoseManueldaSilvaFernandesZEMANUEL) made an emergency stop to catch the ball and made a quick two Cycling, swaying past the opponent and seemingly volleying. After inducing the opponent's defensive player to sway, he lifted his foot and pushed with his heel, and his teammate No. 9 Serginho (Serginho) who followed from behind pushed vigorously.

The ball is in.

In the 43rd minute of the first half, the home team led [-]-[-].

After the goal was scored, Marnell laughed and embraced Selgern. The two waved back at the same time, signaling Gama to come and celebrate together.

Jia Ma pursed his lips and smiled, ran over and hugged his two teammates tightly.

There was deafening cheers from the audience.

"How is it, not bad!"

The old fan shouted at the surrounding fans.

"As long as he continues to behave like this, next month we will make cheering signs for him."

A middle-aged man who sounded like the head of the fan association laughed.

Oh oh~~~

People around the fans shouted.

The home players on the field celebrated with the cheers of the fans, and then scattered away.

As the two sides repeatedly snatched the ball several times, the first half ended.

Back in the locker room, coach Pettit praised the players a little bit. Although he was actually not satisfied with the performance of the players in the first half, but now that the players' condition has gradually recovered, he still mainly encourages them and does not want to hit them. enthusiasm.

The second half was about to start, and when the players ran out of the locker room, Petit called Gama, who was at the back.

"Although your performance looked ordinary at the beginning, you performed well later on."

Pettit also saw that Gama and other teammates still lack a tacit understanding in terms of cooperation, but in general Gama's skills and abilities are still good, and it may be a very good achievement to be able to train an international player.

Faced with the coach's praise, the young man raised his eyebrows, "Thank you sir, I'm on the field."

"come on!"

Petit hugged him and patted him on the back hard.

After the coach let him go, the young man quickened his pace to keep up with his teammates, and he still muttered in his heart: I am not used to the enthusiasm of foreigners.

Don’t look at the boy in his memory who has been living and studying in Brazil since he was 10 years old, but apart from football, he has never been used to the enthusiasm of South Americans, especially the hugs between male players. Although he later became a professional player in China, he Orientals still seldom have that kind of passionate action, even if they win the championship, they are not so excited.

The people here just perform better on the court or have a beautiful move or something, and they are hugged by teammates on the court, so I am not used to it.

The young man flattened his mouth, joined his teammates and ran into the field.

After the start of the second half of the game, Bovista's offensive at home gradually became sharper. Anyway, the home team is the underwriter who has just been relegated from the Portuguese Super League. In terms of overall strength, it is better than the visiting team Vichena. , What's more, once the home team's momentum becomes stronger, the players of the visiting team can only use fouls to block the home team's attack when they can't stop it.

The coach Pettit yelled angrily beside the fourth official, "Why no penalty, my players have already been kicked down twice, shouldn't such a foul be awarded???"

The fourth official glanced at him. "Sir, I'll put this in the report."

"What, put it in the report, what if my players are injured, how do you judge the game?"

Pettit yelled.

The fourth official replied without moving his eyebrows, "Please stand back, otherwise I will write your performance into the report."

Grant, Pettit's assistant coach, hurried forward and dragged Pettit back, "Sir, sir, calm down."

On the field, the home team was kicked and knocked down one after another. The players' anger gradually rose. The referee repeatedly warned them, and even called the teammates from both sides to warn them, telling them to ask the players to calm down, otherwise he would play cards.

Given that the visiting team has already received 2 yellow cards in a row, the referee may want to find a balance and send a yellow card to the home team. Captain Tuya repeatedly shouted at his teammates, telling them to calm down and not be meaningless. eat card.

Seeing his captain control the situation on the field, Pettit nodded slightly.

Grant beside him also nodded, "Tuya is good, he has a high prestige in the team."

Petit nodded, "Yeah!"

The new coach will bring his own coaching team when he takes office. Although Grant is not Portuguese, he and Pettit have worked together for many years, so he knows him very well, and he understands what Pettit didn't say.

If the coach can't control the players in the team, then he can't help it no matter how powerful he is.

Among them, if there is a prestige captain in the team who can stand on the side of the coach, it will be much easier to manage the team.

At present, it seems that Tuya is a captain with a relatively gentle personality and is not easy to manage. As long as he can cooperate with the coach, Pettit will be able to relax a lot in terms of work management in the future.

Petit, who is 49 years old this year, can be regarded as a young coach in football in terms of his age. Of course he hopes to achieve good results and finally return to the Portuguese Super League next year.

Therefore, he must lay a good foundation in each aspect, and player management is the top priority.

In the second half, the atmosphere between the home and away teams was a little hot. After the visiting team got two yellow cards, the referee also issued a yellow card after a foul by the home team. This made the home fans very dissatisfied, and they booed in unison. , the audience booed again, almost overshadowing the live DJ's roar.

Jia Ma rubbed his startled ears. To be honest, he was not used to such an atmosphere, but it felt good!

"shocked?"

Captain Tuya smiled at him.

Jia Ma raised his eyebrows, "Are you kidding me?"

The game continued. In the 56th minute, Gama broke through with the ball and was knocked to the ground by a side tackle by a player of the visiting team.

The calf bone was a bit painful. I pulled off the socks and looked at it. It was a little red. Fortunately, it was just a minor injury and did not need to be treated on the field.

Captain Tuya talked to the referee with a serious face. The referee hesitated for two seconds and took out the yellow card to write the name of the offending player.

Therefore, the player had already received a yellow card before, and now two yellow cards turned into one red, and he was sent off.

The visiting team is now going to challenge with ten players.

The home fans cheered, the visiting team coach protested again and again on the sidelines, and was warned by the fourth official.

Pettit had a smile on his face. If he can score three points in the first game, he will have a good start. No matter how you look at it, it looks good.

Tuya on the field also smiled and said to Gama, "You did well."

Jia Ma curled his lips: Pretty shit, it's obviously a foul, okay, I really hurt my leg.

"Come on, kill them."

Tuya loudly encouraged his teammates.

Jia Ma rolled his eyes: Boss, the opponent understands what you say, and now the opponent is probably even more ruthless.

But this time, Jia Ma guessed wrong. Seeing the home team's momentum, the visiting team shrank and played a full defense. It seemed that they planned to defend like this.

Therefore, he performed well and gained the initial confidence of his teammates. Gama continued to receive passes from his teammates, and began to conduct small-scale scheduling and control. He tried to use this way of passing the ball to tear apart the opponent's defense, but When the opponent is determined not to come out, the midfield organization seems to be useless.

Tired to death, the opponent is like a tortoise shrunk into its shell, unable to come out alive.

Gama held his breath, so the coach on the sidelines had to look over.

Pettit also noticed this. After thinking about it, he waved to Gama, signaling him to slow down the pace and retreat a little. If the opponent still doesn't come out, they are leading anyway, so forget it.If the opponent counterattacks, then look for an opportunity to attack.

After understanding the coach's instructions, Gama raised his arms to signal his teammates to pay attention to his pass. Then he controlled the ball and kept turning back and forth, withdrawing the offensive line to the center circle.

And so, until the end of the second half, the opponent never played again.

The Boavista team won the first game of the season [-]-[-] at home, taking all three points.

After the game, in the post-match ratings of the players of both sides, the visiting team’s players averaged less than 6 points, and most of the home team’s players were around 6 points. Only captain Tuya was rated 7.5 points. For Gama, this truly meaningful game In the first show, he was rated 8 points and won the best of the game. Although there was no champagne, Gama still happily participated in the post-match press conference.
