my football i call the shots

Just when the boys were having the most fun, Cao Chen and assistant coach Xiao Wang finally came late.

"Sorry everyone, I overslept today..."

Cao Chen smiled and greeted the big guys. After all, he was indeed delayed by ten minutes when he was talking to Xiao Wang just now, so he was late for several minutes. This was the first time he was in a team meeting. belated to say.

The lads naturally wouldn't blame Cao Chen for being late. After all, everyone knows that Cao Chen and assistant coach Xiao Wang always review and summarize the game all night after every game, for the second I will be able to give you the most specific guidance at the meeting today.

Seeing that Cao Chen and Teacher Wang were in place, the boys quickly suppressed the smiles on their faces, sat down obediently, and waited for today's meeting to start.

After stepping onto the podium in the conference hall, Cao Chen also said to the boys with a serious face: "The situation of Group A has been determined, and the big guys don't need to pay attention to the situation of the fifth round of Group A. Yesterday's After the four rounds, the situation in our Group A has been completely settled."

At this time, the boys below are also very curious. After all, they only know that the "Guanggui Provincial Derby" between Nanning No. 3 Middle School and Guilin Middle School ended 3-[-] at the end of the first half. As for the follow-up result , I don’t know at all—after all, whether or not Nanning No. [-] Middle School scores three points determines the battle for the top spot between the two teams, so the boys still have a lot to do with the final result of that game.

Cao Chen didn't give a shit either, and said to the boys very directly: "Guilin Middle School was defeated by Nanning No. 6 Middle School 3-[-], so Nanning No. [-] Middle School has definitely won the first place in Group A one round ahead of schedule. We are ranked second in the group. Experimental Middle School ranked third, Baili Memorial Middle School ranked fourth, and Guilin Middle School was directly eliminated because it lost to Nanning No. [-] Middle School.”

"what!!!"

"Unbelievable, incredible!"

"Nanning No. [-] Middle School really won Guilin Middle School!"

……

The lads below exclaimed. Obviously, the big guys didn't expect at all that the amiable coach Shen Shufu would be so cruel to the team from the same province. You know, their game was still A full bench lineup was formed, and even the main players such as Li Yiming and Yao Huihuang sat on the bench and watched the fire.

But it can also be seen from another aspect that the substitute players of Nanning No. 5 Middle School are quite good, and they were able to make a shocking reversal of [-] consecutive goals without changing to the main force. They won Guilin Middle School in one fell swoop and won Group A. First place in the group stage.

Regarding the surprised and regretful attitude of the boys, Cao Chen also shrugged his shoulders, pretending to be indifferent.

"Actually, in my opinion, whether it is the first place in the group or the second place in the group, the difference is not too big. After all, the strongest in Group B, the Guangfu Affiliated High School of Southern Academy of Sciences and the No. 4 Middle School, have confirmed that the top two will qualify. Yes, their last round of strong dialogue will also be a fight to avoid the Provincial Experimental Middle School. The third No.[-] position in Group B is the competition between Dongshan Middle School, Liuzhou High School, and Yulin No. [-] Middle School. I After researching last night, the strengths of these three teams are very similar, the only difference is the technical and tactical style of play, and the tactical style. No matter which one we face, it will not be a big problem."

Gao Yi opened his eyes and asked: "But won't the division be different??? As far as I know, according to the division rules of last season, we have to be in the same half division as the Provincial Experimental Middle School! "

The boys below were in an uproar. After all, everyone knew that after defeating the "Guangfu Provincial Overlord" Provincial Experimental Middle School, which was basically the "host" in the first round, the players of the Provincial Experimental Middle School already treated them very well. It's a mentality of revenge. If they are divided into the same half area, this is basically a life-and-death battle.

Regarding Gao Yi's concerns, Cao Chen also immediately explained: "This worry is superfluous. Last season's divisional rules were different from this season's. After all, this season's expansion to 12 teams will definitely not follow the rules. The one from last season."

Gao Yi was also surprised and asked: "Oh??? Then Coach Cao, what happened to the division this season???"

Regarding Gao Yi's question, "This season's division will have to wait until the top 8 matches have been played, and then draw lots for divisions, so as to determine the matchup of the semifinals at that time... Uh, everyone, don't ask me about the rules. Anyway, the order book is also written in a very messy manner, and when we can pass the first round of the knockout round, it will be clear."

Speaking of this, Cao Chen also said to the boys with confidence: "Anyway! Don't worry, everyone, no matter whether you are facing Liuzhou High School, Dongshan Middle School or Yulin No. [-] Middle School in the knockout round, I believe that with everyone's strength And the state, can break through in the first round of the knockout round!!!”

Seeing that Coach Cao is so confident, the boys calmed down one by one. After all, everyone has watched the game highlights of the other 11 teams in the Guangdong-Guangzhou Division during this period. I have a certain understanding of the strength of my opponents, so everyone is relatively at ease about the first round of the knockout round.

After Cao Chen finished talking about the situation after the fourth round, there were boys below who couldn't wait to ask about the rest arrangement——Cao Chen had promised the boys before the fourth round that for the next 8 consecutive days, he would definitely I will arrange a certain vacation for everyone, let the big guys wander around Cantonese, and have a look at the style of this provincial capital city.

I saw Bai Xiaolei asking with a playful smile: "Then, Coach Cao, how do we arrange the rest time? I promised everyone before that I will invite everyone to dinner after qualifying for the group stage. Now we have finished the group stage. Give the big guys a little time to play around???"

"Arrangements for rest time..."

I saw Cao Chen's facial muscles move suddenly, showing a mysterious expression, and then suddenly said "tsk", "I'll talk to you guys after today's meeting is over."

After all, Cao Chen deliberately didn't look at the gloomy Bai Xiaolei, and said to the other boys with a smile on his face, "Okay! Anyway, I promised you to arrange a rest time for everyone, I definitely won't Breaking my promise. Hey! It's getting late, let's start today's meeting quickly!"

Listening to Coach Cao's instructions, the boys hurriedly adjusted their sitting postures one by one, restrained their hippie smiles, and prepared to listen to Coach Cao's replay of yesterday's game.Especially for the players who represented the school team in an official game for the first time yesterday, at this time, they were all eager to get Cao Chen's comments. It is a valuable experience for them.

I saw Cao Chen also said very seriously: "Although the fourth round of the competition is to "release water" for Baili Memorial Middle School, there are still many things worth summarizing. For example, I need to name and praise Li Lei in this competition. !"

Li Lei listened to Cao Chen's deliberate naming of himself, and he was so happy from ear to ear. After all, it was just his attitude that he was satisfied with his performance yesterday. If he can get the affirmation of the head coach, Li Lei will naturally be happier To put it bluntly, after all, being able to get the affirmation of the head coach also means that he may be able to continue to get a lot of playing time in the knockout stage!

I saw Cao Chen gave Li Lei a thumbs up, and said to the other boys: "Li Lei partnered with Xiao Lei yesterday as a double striker. He has done all the homework that a striker should do. The support, or the high position press in the frontcourt, including the cooperation with his teammates, was perfect! What is more important is Li Lei's fighting spirit on the field yesterday! During our offensive stage, A Lei always fought for the ball, and He can often snatch the ball in the crowd, which is enough to show his attitude!"

After all, Cao Chen smiled and looked at Han Qingsong, who was the first substitute yesterday: "Qingsong! I think you should treat Ah Lei to lunch. Yesterday, Ah Lei created at least 5 goals for you." I have counted the chances, and three of them were directly facing the goalkeeper, but you all missed them. If Gao Yi and Ziyang come to such a good opportunity, they will definitely score goals."

When Cao Chen said this, Han Qingsong laughed and said, "Hahaha, no problem, no problem! I'll treat Ah Lei to spicy hot pot for lunch, hehe."

The situation is exactly as Cao Chen said, Li Lei created many opportunities for Han Qingsong to directly face the goal, but in the end Han Qingsong basically flew away. I know that many people don't have such a good opportunity to face the goal directly. If it were for Wu Xinlin, he would definitely cherish such a rare opportunity to complete the goal!

After praising yesterday's MVP Li Lei, Cao Chen also named and praised several offensive players of the team, such as Wang Fei, Wu Xinlin, Lu Zhixin, Cao Lianming, Tan Xiaolin, and Lu Zhenyu, who played their first official game. There is nothing too eye-catching performance, but Cao Chen, as a sensible person, still understands very well that the boys need their own affirmation, so that they will have more motivation to go on the road of football!

Although the four sophomore players like Lu Zhixin, Cao Lianming, Tan Xiaolin, and Lu Zhenyu are not the main players of the team, they are not even counted as substitute rotations. They, Cao Chen will also naturally eliminate them from the school team - they are just the most ordinary students. In the third year of high school, their most important task is to seriously prepare for the college entrance examination. They are not like Wang Bo. Unlike Bai Xiaolei and Zhang Ziyang, talented players who are very close to professional teams, they have other options to choose from.

So go!Cao Chen hopes to give them affirmation, so that they have enough motivation to continue to stick to football in the days to come!
Even if it's just a way to keep fit, it's enough!
As long as these children don't give up their youthful dream of flying in the green after they leave the school team, then, in Cao Chen's view, no matter how hard or tiring he is for them, it will be worth it!
