my football i call the shots

"Ugh!!!"

After Cao Chen blew the whistle to end the game, Gao Yi collapsed helplessly on the grass and refused to get up for a long time.

Although it was just an innocuous intra-team match, the draw was really an unacceptable result for Gao Yi.

After all, after Cao Chen adjusted his midfield position for the second time in the second half, Gao Yi and Zhang Ziyang were able to find scoring opportunities in the frontcourt, but unfortunately, these opportunities were basically called offside by the line referee Mr. Wang.

This made Gao Yi really unacceptable.

This feeling is even more depressing than being alone.

After all, it is his own problem not to score alone, and the ball that is obviously not offside is blown offside, it is a problem of the professional ability of the referee!
But what can be done about it? ? ?

After Cao Chen showed the yellow card just now, he has clearly told Gao Yi: You must obey the referee's penalty on the court, and you can't foolishly "apply" to the referee for a yellow card because of the penalty.

"Gao Yi, don't be depressed."

Hearing the familiar voice, Gao Yi turned his head and saw that it was indeed Zhang Ziyang.

Seeing Gao Yi's downcast look, Zhang Ziyang promptly brought out a bowl of hot "chicken soup" to comfort Gao Yi.

"It's just a confrontation within the team... just think of it as saving your character for the third round, let's go, Coach Cao is going to give us a summary."

"Yeah! You're right! Let's save character for the third round against Nancheng Middle School!"

After drinking Zhang Ziyang's bowl of chicken soup, the optimist Gao Yi immediately regained his positive energy. Following Zhang Ziyang's extended hand, Gao Yi stood up from the ground and went to the sidelines to listen to Cao Chen's summary.

"Everyone is here, let's make a quick summary and disband."

Seeing that Zhang Ziyang and Gao Yi came together and there was no one on the court, Cao Chen also started to get straight to the point.

"Today I have to praise a classmate by name, Southeast! You played very well today. I will definitely let you start in the third round of the game. I hope you can have such a good performance in the next few training sessions .”

"Thank you Coach Cao."

Listening to Cao Chen's rare praise, Bian Dongnan was also elated, especially when he heard that he had confirmed a starting position for the third round, Bian Dongnan was even more excited beyond words.

Rewards and punishments must be distinguished. After Cao Chen praised Bian Dongnan, it was time for him to criticize the player who played the worst football and lost his temper today.

"Gao Yi! I need to criticize you today. Not only did you play poorly, but you were also emotional. Go, two laps!!!"

"Yes."

It was the first time he was criticized by Cao Chen in the training class, and Gao Yi was also very helpless, but Gao Yi did not dare to disobey Cao Chen's punishment, so he immediately stepped out and ran towards the track.

Gao Yi went to accept the punishment, but Cao Chen didn't stop at the topic. Cao Chen continued to adjust the position of the small magnet on the tactical board.

At this time, the small magnetic block on the tactical board has returned to the 4-4-2 position.

但这个4-4-2的站位和之前南湖一中常用的4-4-2阵型不同。

The old version is a parallel position in the midfield, where the two midfielders serve as central midfielders, completely parallel to the two wide midfielders.

But now in the 4-4-2 position on the tactical board, the two central midfielders have been withdrawn to the positions of the midfielders, and Gao Yi, who originally stood behind Zhang Ziyang as an attacking midfielder, was also premised by Cao Chen Go to the front line and continue to form a double forward position.

"I'm sorry to tell everyone that the 4-5-1 formation you implemented is really bad, and you can't play the pass-and-control football I expected at all, but fortunately, after the adjustment in more than 70 minutes, in Gao Yi After repeated mistakes, your 4-5-1 formation has become the 4-4-2 double midfielder position on the tactical board."

After all, Cao Chen patted the whiteboard specially.

"This stance formed by mistake has shown a good offensive quality. Maybe we can follow this line of thought to seek changes. If it is correct, this 4-4-2 double midfielder stance will also become a Our third round is against Nancheng Middle School's main lineup."

After listening to Cao Chen's words, the boys below were also excited.

Indeed, this 4-4-2 formation with double midfielders showed extraordinary offensive power just now.

Wang Bo, who retreated to the position of the midfielder, can send precise long passes to the frontcourt more calmly. Since Zhang Ziyang and Gao Yi in the frontcourt of the main lineup have good ability to hold the ball with their backs, Wang Bo's long As long as the pass is not too skewed, it can basically be sent to the two forwards in the frontcourt.

Although there were no goals due to several controversial penalties by the new lineman Mr. Wang, it has to be admitted that this simple and direct attack nearly collapsed the defense of the substitute yellow team.

maybe?Nanhu No. [-] Middle School is more suitable for this kind of simple offense, rather than fancy pass and control football.

Today's training session is an experiment for Cao Chen.It is also a difficult self-denial.

You know, this 4-5-1 formation that focuses on pass and control took Cao Chen a whole night to think about it, but now it seems that this pass and control formation can only be put back in the cabinet for the time being, waiting for the right time. Time to take it out and use it.

"Okay! Everyone can think about the 4-4-2 formation with double midfielders when you go back. Let's talk about the specifics in the next training session...Let's disband, it's getting late, let's go home for dinner."

"Thank you Coach Cao!!!"

After such a high-consuming training game, the boys' stomachs were already growling. After receiving Cao Chen's order to disband, everyone seemed to have received a pardon. They happily went back to their respective homes to find their mothers.

After Cao Chen signaled to Xiao Wang that he could go home, he didn't leave. He looked at Gao Yi who was dragging his weary pace on the runway and still completing his punishment.

Although the distance between the two laps was not too long, Gao Yi was exhausted after the game. The two laps of 800 meters were cut into 5 minutes by Gao Yi.

After running, Gao Yi saw that Cao Chen hadn't left yet, so he had no choice but to report to Cao Chen.

"Coach Cao, I'm done running, huh huh..."

Seeing Gao Yi's tired and out of breath, Cao Chen couldn't bear it, because he knew what happened to Gao Yi's repeated offside...

"Xiao Yi, I can only tell you with regret that you are not suitable to play in midfield."

"Um???"

Cao Chen's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Gao Yi's heart fiercely. After listening to Cao Chen's words, Gao Yi couldn't even take a breather, and Gao Yi asked excitedly: "Coach Cao, your Does it mean to withdraw me to the forward position and let Zhang Ziyang play in the midfield? No!!! Give me another chance? Half time, give me another half time, no, no, no, half an hour is enough, I will definitely I will prove to you that I can do it!!!"

At this time, Gao Yi's sentence was messy, and he even had a feeling that he didn't know what he was talking about.

Cao Chen's decision made Gao Yi suddenly incoherent. If he was allowed to return to the striker, wouldn't he have the opportunity to prove himself in the midfield position and prove himself to the brilliantly accomplished father in the family?
"Oh no, Xiaoyi, listen to me..."

Seeing Gao Yi's almost collapsed appearance, Cao Chen was shocked immediately. He didn't expect Gao Yi to care so much about his decision.

"After I adjusted the formation for the second time, I found that your characteristics still have to return to the striker position. The double striker formation that you partnered with Ziyang still has a relatively high offensive ability, so I decided to continue to move your position forward. You return to the familiar forward position, similarly, Ziyang does not retreat, and you two continue to work together as a double forward."

说罢，曹晨指了指平放在地上的战术板，示意球队的阵型也将摒弃4-5-1，转而改变成4-4-2双后腰阵型。

"what???"

Gao Yi seemed a little unbelievable: "Coach Cao, then, will the team continue to play pass-and-control football???"

"Definitely not playing! If the team plays 4-4-2, they will definitely continue to use our 'heirloom' defensive counterattack, but when I go back and think about what changes to make, I will give you a training session on Saturday. concrete answer."

"Like This……"

After listening to Cao Chen's explanation, Gao Yi finally calmed down.

The team's tactical formation is changed again, and Zhang Ziyang and himself continue to play forwards. This is also a satisfactory decision.Otherwise, let Gao Yi continue to play forward and Zhang Ziyang withdraws to the midfield, then Gao Yi must be 1 unwilling!
Because, as long as there is a chance to play in midfield, Gao Yi hopes to fight for it!
The reason is that I just hope to prove myself to the brilliant father at home!

Seeing Gao Yi's absent-minded appearance, Cao Chen also tentatively asked, "Xiao Yi, what's wrong with you today, why are you so obsessed with playing midfield?"

"Uh……"

When Cao Chen asked such a question, Gao Yi immediately blushed. He paused for a moment, but decided to speak out what was in his heart.

"Is such that……"

Then, Gao Yi told about his great past when he found his father at home, that is, Gao Xun, Cao Chen's "colleague from the finance department".

"So! I hope that I can play as well as him in the midfield position. I hope to prove to him that I can do it!!!"

After listening to Gao Yi's explanation, Cao Chen suddenly realized.

However, Cao Chen really did not expect that Gao Yi did not discover the glorious past of Gao Xun, the great midfield engine of the national football team, until yesterday.

Although many problems have been discovered, what Cao Chen needs to do most now is to enlighten Gao Yi first.

"Xiao Yi, let's put it this way, your technical characteristics are really not suitable for playing in the midfield, and you are not familiar with the position of the midfield. We will play against Nancheng Middle School next week. For the team's victory, I also I can't risk you playing in midfield, I'm sorry."

"No, no, coach Cao, you don't need to be sorry, the team's record is the main focus."

"Well." Cao Chen nodded and continued to explain: "Actually, if you want to prove yourself in front of your father, you don't have to play well in the midfield position, play well in the forward position, and be able to act like a leader." Leading the team out of trouble time and time again to victory is also a way for you to prove yourself to your dad."

Regarding Cao Chen's enlightenment, Gao Yi suddenly had the feeling of "awakening the dreamer with one word".

Yes! ! !

What a fool! ! !
Why do you have to be obsessed with kicking results in the midfield position?Even if you play in the forward position, defender position, or even the goalkeeper position, it is a way to prove yourself!

Just like what Cao Chen said just now, he is not made to play in the midfield, so he shouldn't be single-minded in trying to achieve results in the midfield.

What I should do more is to maximize my strengths and avoid my weaknesses!Kick it out in your more advantageous position!
What needs to be proved should be your football talent, and the dream of football, persistence, never give up, and you should not stick to your position on the pitch!
As long as he can make a head start in the forward position, it is enough to prove to his father that he can do it!

After receiving such enlightenment, Gao Yi excitedly bowed deeply to Cao Chen.

"Thank you, Coach Cao, I understand! I won't bother with these small details in the future, you are right! As long as I play well in the forward position, I can naturally prove myself to my father!"

Seeing Gao Yi comprehend so quickly, Cao Chen also nodded in satisfaction.

"Okay, pack up, go home early for dinner, and go back and think about how to play in a 4-4-2 double midfielder formation."

"Okay, goodbye Coach Cao!"

"Goodbye."

Gao Yi, who no longer struggled with the issue of midfield or not, immediately returned to a thriving state. After all, he is an optimist. As long as he sees through the problem, he can restore his smile.

Looking at the back of Gao Yi bouncing away, Cao Chen looked regretful at this moment.

Cao Chen didn't forget about this big brother who lived in Nanhu City like himself.

From before the National Day to now, Cao Chen has been thinking of visiting, but Cao Chen is afraid of disturbing his big brother's life of incognito.

To be honest, if Gao Xun really wanted to see him, then Gao Yi would have gotten a response after returning home with the news of his request.

But up to now, the matter of asking for a meeting is like falling into a swamp, and there is no response at all.

Especially today when Gao Yi mentioned that Gao Xun had never mentioned his glorious past for so many years, Cao Chen felt that he should not disturb the lives of ordinary people like Gao Xun after leaving the football circle.

Looking at Gao Yi's leaving direction, Cao Chen murmured to himself, "Big Brother, when will you be willing to meet me?"

Time flies, he is old, and he is also old.

What hasn't changed is the love when I was young!
