my football i call the shots

Waiting for the principal to approach, Cao Chen hurriedly greeted him with a smile - after all, the principal has done such a "trench" for the logistics support of the school team's participation in the national finals, no matter what, Cao Chen is sure Treat yourself, the "gold master", well.

"Principal, you are back from drawing lots!"

"Hey! Lao Cao, how is your training going???"

"It's pretty good. I just finished the training session and I'm summing up..."

While talking with the principal, Cao Chen observed the changes in the expression on the principal's face. To Cao Chen's surprise, the principal's face was like a spring breeze, without any worry at all. Could it be that today's lottery , Mr. Principal, you have a golden hand, and you got a hand and signed it? ? ?
After Cao Chen led the principal to the front of the team, Cao Chen also directly signaled for the principal to speak, while he walked aside to wait for the good news.

Now that Cao Chen let himself speak, the principal simply borrowed the first training session after the school team was assembled, and started his own "mobilization meeting".

I saw that the principal still looked at the boys below with a spring-like smile on his face. Maybe this is the principal expressing his kindness?
"Thank you for your hard work! We have been playing games for half a year. Now, our Nanhu No. [-] Middle School team has come to the highest stage of the Football League and came to Liaolian City to participate in the final stage of the national finals. I also hope that everyone Don't relax, after all, this is a rare opportunity, you can not only show your talents in front of the national audience, but also an opportunity for Nanhu No. [-] Middle School to show your demeanor to the outside world..."

Speaking of this, the principal's smile became even stronger. After scanning the 23 boys of the school team, he continued: "Today, I went to the competition committee early in the morning to draw lots for the match. , this result, to be honest, made me very, very surprised..."

"Um???"

Hearing the principal's words "very, very unexpected", coupled with the spring-like smile on the principal's face, the boys were immediately overjoyed: Could it be that the principal drew a lottery?
"Haha, here, I can proudly tell everyone: the principal did not disappoint everyone! Our draw was divided into the lower half, and the teams in the same half as us are..."

Hearing that the principal was coming to announce the results, Cao Chen hurriedly motioned for Xiao Wang to take notes, recording the matchup of the national finals, so as to prepare for the battle later.

"The teams in the same half of the district as us are: Yanji No. [-] Middle School, the champion of the Northeast Division, Suyang Middle School, the champion of the Jiangnan Division, and Hong Kong Nanhua Middle School, the champion of the Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan Division. Our opponent in the first round is..."

Speaking of this, the principal smiled so happily, he was even happier than Nanhu No. [-] Middle School won the title of "National Key Demonstration High School".

"Our opponent in the first round is! From the Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan competition area, Hong Kong Nanhua Middle School!!!"

"Wow!!!!!"

The boys below immediately exploded. After all, everyone knows that the overall strength of the teams in the Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan competition area is relatively weak. Although it is a provincial competition area, the strength of its champion may be as strong as Nanhu City. It is difficult to say that it is difficult to enter the finals in the first-level division.It can be said that the champion of the Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan divisions is the only recognized "soft persimmon" in the national finals. Whoever wins can be happy-this is almost equivalent to the first round!
"Shhh, everyone, please be quiet for a moment. I know everyone's mood at this time, but I will finish the matchup in the upper half by the way. Everyone, let's go back and have fun..."

Well... so to speak, in fact, the principal is happier than the boys below. Even he himself can't imagine that he can be so lucky that "a blind cat meets a dead mouse" in the first round against the weakest Hong Kong For Nanhua Middle School, this means that the goal of "kicking up momentum" that I initially set can be revised according to the actual situation according to the "specific analysis of the specific situation".

"The upper half of the division can be regarded as the 'death team' you often call. The High School Affiliated to Beijing Institute of Technology, Shanghai Kangqiao Middle School, Jinshi Middle School, and Beijiang Middle School are crowded together. Their first round match is that the High School Affiliated to Beijing Institute of Technology Against Jinshi High School, Shanghai Kangqiao High School against Beijiang High School."

Listening to the situation of the matchup in the upper half, the boys couldn't help but gasped: Fortunately, they were not drawn to the upper half, otherwise, they would really have entered the "death team". , no matter which team it is, it is not easy to provoke. Such a matchup situation, no matter which game it is, will be very fierce. After all, the strength gap is not too big.

On the contrary, in the lower half, the match between Yanji No. [-] Middle School and Suyang Middle School, and the match between Nanhu No. [-] Middle School and Nanhua Middle School can basically predict the result: Yanji No. [-] Middle School and Nanhu No. [-] Middle School will meet in the semi-finals, which is more likely than [-]%!
There is basically no possibility of Yanji No. [-] Middle School being upset, because in historical records, the Northeast Division has never lost to the Jiangnan Division!

The boys from Nanhu No. [-] Middle School are also full of confidence. They believe that they can definitely win the weakest Nanhua Middle School in the first round, enter the second round, and meet Yanji No. [-] Middle School, the strongest in the second half of the Northeast Division.

I saw that the headmaster still maintained a face full of spring breeze, and said to the boys: "Since your coach Cao asked me to do mobilization, then, as for the result of the lottery, I also want to share some of my views... "

Listening to the "opening words" of the principal, the boys may still be confused, but Cao Chen basically knows what the principal is going to say next. However, Cao Chen has no intention of objecting. The following words are spoken out, and he himself, the head coach, will also speak out on behalf of the principal.

"Well! The result of our lottery this time can be said to be the best lottery. The first round does not need to undergo too many tests. After all, we all know that Hong Kong Nanhua Middle School from Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan is not strong. Although their team will There are some foreign players who hold Hong Kong Special Administrative Region resident cards, but the number, I don’t think there will be too many…”

Before the principal could finish speaking, Cao Chen hurriedly stood up and added: "Oh! According to the roster in the order book, there are 4 naturalized players in the Hong Kong Nan Hua Middle School team, two British nationals, and one Brazilian player. Nationality, one Portuguese nationality, only two of them can be regarded as absolute main players, and the other two can only be regarded as marginal players. In addition, the competition committee also has certain requirements for foreign players. After all, some international schools will have foreign students or There are exchange students, so each school cannot have more than 5 foreign players, so you don’t need to worry too much.”

To add, Cao Chen also signaled to the principal to continue talking.

"These specific things need to be understood by your coach Cao. I don't know much about them..."

The principal was not dissatisfied because of Cao Chen's interruption. After all, he was an outsider, and he was an outsider. This is an unshakable fact, and there is no need to argue too much.

I saw the principal continue to say what he said just now: "Since we have drawn such a good opponent in the first round, my personal opinion is: let's revise the goal of this national finals—I hope everyone can win a round." It is best to bring a hearty victory to audiences across the country, and let all audiences across the country know that there is a powerful and talented team in an inconspicuous coastal city in Guangfu Province. Nanhu No. [-] Middle School football team!!!”

"it is good!!!!!"

Hearing Mr. Principal's generous statement, which is more hearty than Dasheng, the boys' emotions were mobilized at once, and the big guys answered with overwhelming affirmation without even thinking about it. The new goal was agreed to.

This is what Cao Chen admires the principal the most.

Although the principal always has an official tone, in the mobilization meeting, whether it is for sports or cultural examinations, he can always ignite the enthusiasm of the students and make the students rush forward one by one. It's something that people who haven't read much in the morning can easily do—after all, the principal is still a brilliant student with a postgraduate background in philosophy.

"Okay!!!"

Seeing the confident and energetic appearance of the players one by one, the headmaster nodded in satisfaction.

"Then I hope that everyone will prepare well for the remaining week, and try to make their first appearance in the national finals one week later to shock the national audience! You know, this time many of our classmates and alumni also went to Liao Lian, come to the scene to cheer for us! Don't let them down!"

"clear!!!!!"

"Okay! I'll stop here, leave the rest to you, Coach Cao, and then I'll get busy with the rest, everyone, cheers!!!"

After all, before leaving the court, the principal waved his clenched fist and made a cheering gesture, signaling to the boys to cheer up.

After the principal left, Cao Chen returned to the front of the team, took the position of the principal just now, and said to the boys in a deep tone: "The principal is right, the first round match against Nanhua Middle School is definitely a top draw." After all, our team was fully staffed a week before the start of the game, and we really need a game that is not too stressful to test how well everyone cooperates after returning. Therefore, this game is a precious opportunity for us ! Whether it’s used for running-in, or used to test our current strength, it’s very important!”

Speaking of this, Cao Chen said with a serious face: "So! On the basis of the principal's request to 'win the first round', I need to add one more point: We want a big victory! We must win a big victory!!! "

Perhaps, this kind of words came out of the headmaster's mouth, which was a polite way of mobilization, but the boys didn't believe it when they came out of Cao Chen's mouth, so the boys' reaction at this time was not the same as before. Responding to the high spirits of the principal, everyone was somewhat doubtful—is Coach Cao really sure that we will be able to win a big victory against Nanhua Middle School? ? ?
Cao Chen could also see the doubts on the faces of the boys, and Cao Chen said very seriously: "Since I am the head coach of the team, I have made such a request to everyone, so I must have my objective understanding. , I dare to bring it up! I have watched the videos of the other seven participating teams in the national finals for nearly two months, and I have a clear understanding of the positioning of Nanhua Middle School's strength! The overall strength of Nanhua Middle School It is close to Nanyu Middle School, since we were able to defeat Nanyu Middle School half a year ago, we will naturally be able to defeat Nanhua Middle School in the national finals! Moreover, we are not what we used to be now..."

Speaking of this, Cao Chen deliberately pointed to the score board on the bench, 27 to 0 is still impressive.

"27 to 0 can be played, why can't they beat Nanhua Middle School??? Although they have a few foreign naturalized players, but we also have three players who have gone abroad for special training! So! My request , It’s not too much at all, I hope you don’t underestimate your own strength! Anyway, I believe the big guys can do it!”

After all, Cao Chen said with a serious face: "Please answer me seriously, can you do it!??"

"can!!!!!"

At this time, the young men all came back to their senses, each one was full of energy, almost roaring in response to Cao Chen's words.

……

The first round of the national finals is getting closer and closer. Can the boys of Nanhu No. [-] Middle School really beat Nanhua Middle School by a big score as they wish? ? ?
This depends on how seriously the boys prepare and run in the next few days!
see you tomorrow! o(∩_∩)o
