Chapter 445 Determination to Substitute

After Rico came on the field, he hadn't gotten the ball a few times before, and he witnessed his team lose the most critical ball.

He stood in front, staring at the scene dumbfounded.

I came to the field to fight the Chinese team's counterattack.Because at that time we were only one goal behind, we still had a chance, but now...we are already two goals behind, what is the point of my playing?
He began to doubt.

※※※

"Ah—" In the room, a teammate sighed, then waved his hand, shook his head and left.

"Don't read it, it's a waste of time..."

"As long as there is glory, the Chinese team is invincible..."

"Go back and rest early, tomorrow's game is the most important thing..."

In this way, everyone left Kaka's room one by one.

In the end, only Kaka and Baptista were left in the room.

Baptista didn't leave because this was his room too—he shared a room with Kaka.

But Baptista didn't intend to continue watching: "I'm going to the bathroom..."

He stood up and walked to the toilet.

Kaka turned her head and glanced at him, then fixed her eyes on the TV screen again.

He was also hesitating whether to continue watching.

Seeing Rong Guang being such a dick really made him a little upset.

There is no point in the next game. Brazil cannot turn defeat into victory, because the Chinese team has glory.

At this moment, a black face appeared among the players of the Brazil National Youth Team who had appeared in close-up shots one by one on the TV screen.

Kaka recognized this face.

It's Rico.

Riko opened his mouth wide, his eyes widened, and his expression was dull, as if he had suffered a very heavy blow.

It looked really pathetic, and kind of funny.

Kaka rang the phone call she made to Rico yesterday.

I said that I would cheer him on and watch him play in front of the TV.

If you just turn off the TV now, wouldn't that be breaking your promise?
Although Rico wouldn't know, but...God knows.

I cheated Rico myself, God knows it.

The pious belief made Kaka finally decide to keep watching and see the end of the game, even though the last ten minutes of the game had become garbage time.

※※※

Now that's like this, what's the point of me playing the game?
Rico looked at the Chinese players who were cheering and celebrating in front of the gate, thinking blankly.

This is my first appearance in this World Youth Championship, my first competition... But, it seems that it is over before it even started?
It's so insignificant...

But isn't that a good fit?

I'm just so insignificant...

In the Brazilian National Youth Team, I was a substitute.

In Sao Paulo I was also a substitute.

Rong, who used to be worse than me, is so beautiful now.

Even Lucas, he used to be a substitute in the youth team, and his status was lower than mine, but he is now the main center of the Sao Paulo first team...

And I was still a substitute.

People around me, one after another, are surpassing themselves, and then throwing themselves away.

They have all become stars, only themselves, still unknown, insignificant...

He thought about that winter, when Lucas ran to his family's grocery store to find him, and dragged him to special training.At that time, I was surprised that Lucas, who has always been lazy, would have such a positive side, so I asked him what was wrong.

"Do you want to become stronger, Rico?"

"How much do you want? Do you want to be strong like you want to breathe?"

Longing to be strong like longing to breathe...

Both Rong and Lucas are today because of this belief, right?
And what about yourself?

He thought about what he said to his teammates before the game.

I don't know if I have such a strong desire to breathe to be strong.

but now……

Am I about to throw in the towel?
If I throw in the towel here, then I deserve to be on the bench for the rest of my life, always so unknown and insignificant!
I want to win this game, I want to win this game as much as I want to breathe!

Even if everyone gives up... I still want to win!
I can't change their minds, I can't pull them up one by one and give them strength, but I can decide myself.

I want to win!

I really want it!
Think like longing to breathe!

※※※

When the game started, the Brazilian team seemed to have lost their fighting spirit. They huddled in the backcourt to defend, but it was more like a kind of inertia-because the head coach hadn't made new adjustments, they continued to play in the previous tactics.In fact, their brains did not even think about why they continued to play like this.

This shows how much Gao Lin's ball hit them.

Has almost completely destroyed their desire to play.

The players of the Chinese team also played very relaxed and gradually relaxed.

Because even a blind person can see now that it is completely impossible for Brazil to threaten them anymore, and the rest of the game just needs to let it pass.

Even some Chinese players have begun to think about how to express themselves in front of those European scouts...

No one noticed that amidst the decadent Brazilian formation, there was a black... leopard hidden!
※※※

When the game lasted to 82 minutes, before that, the Chinese team had besieged Brazil's penalty area for 5 minutes.

For five minutes, Brazil's defenders looked like a pack of dogs.

It seemed like a goal could come at any moment.

Brazil's weak defenders of the Chinese team are gearing up one by one, wanting to come up and participate in the attack.

The two full-backs crossed the center line a long time ago and didn't go back. Now the two center backs can't even help getting closer to the center line.

Although it is impossible for them to really go up and participate in the attack, they also hope to be as close to the attack as possible.

You can't really attack, you can see it more clearly, right?

At this moment, Cheng Tao's possession of the ball in the frontcourt was cut off by the Brazilian midfielder Renato!
Then he followed with a big kick to clear the siege!
But the football didn't fly to the sideline, but flew directly to the frontcourt!
Renato seems to just want to keep the football as far away from his goal as possible.

But his kick unintentionally...created a chance to counterattack!

"Rico! Brazil's substitute striker, he started from the middle circle and chased after the football!" Huang Jianqiang was taken aback when he saw this scene-the backcourt in China is so empty that he can run like a horse!

If Rico catches the ball... that would be a one-shot!
At this time, the two central defenders of the Chinese team who were quietly approaching the center line realized what mistake they had made!

When they turned around at the same time to intercept Rico, Rico had already slipped through them like a gust of wind!

At that moment, despair rose from the bottom of their hearts, almost drowning them.

The two of them were like people who were about to drown. They stretched out their hands and grabbed Riko's back in vain, as if they wanted to grab the straw for life.

But they can only watch Riko's back getting farther and farther...

At this moment, another gust of wind suddenly passed between them!
Red jersey, yellow captain's armband, number ten, glory!
※※※

"Brazil made a big kick to clear the siege... Eh? This ball... This is Brazil's counterattack! The goal of the Chinese team is in danger!" Huang Jianqiang exclaimed.

Although the Chinese team has already led by two goals, but... if Rico scored this goal, it would be one goal away. There are 5 minutes left in the game, plus 3 minutes of stoppage time, 8 minutes, enough for the bloody Brazil team to do something...

So this ball, which seems insignificant, is actually critical!

But then he found that a player from the Chinese team had returned to defense. When he saw this scene, he suddenly felt relieved.

Because the one who catches up is... Glory!
Rong Guang and Rico just compared their speed!

"Rongguang is actively returning to defense!"

※※※

Originally, Kaka in front of the TV was quite happy to see that the ball accidentally hit and turned into a one-shot by Riko. If the ball scored, it would not be completely hopeless...

But right after he saw the glory!
That kid!
He clenched his fists and cursed in his heart through gritted teeth.

Why is he everywhere? !

※※※

Rico didn't know that Rong Guang was chasing after him. Regarding this excellent opportunity bestowed by God, he only had one thought now, and that was to score the football!
If you want to prove how much you want to win this game, put this ball in first!

When the football fell, he didn't use his feet to stop the ball directly, but moved the football forward with his head, and continued to chase the football without losing speed!

In front of Brazil's coaching bench and bench, everyone has stood up, staring nervously at Rico who is running wildly.

At the same time, they also saw the glory of catching up behind Rico.

Rico ran earlier than Rongguang and was closer to the goal, so could Rico have a chance to shoot before Rongguang caught up with him?
The Brazilian players on the field also stared blankly at this special running scene, completely forgetting to go up to support Rico-in fact, it was useless for them to go up.

It's a battle of the fastest guys on both teams.

They have no room to intervene at all...

But they all silently cheered for Rico in their hearts.

Renato panted and looked at Riko, he didn't expect that he would have a chance to turn into an assist with his casual kick...

Come on, Rico!
You can do it!
You can do it!
Have confidence in yourself!
※※※

The players of the Chinese team are chasing back, but they are still far away from Rongguang, let alone Riko who is still before Rongguang.

Their retreat is more like a formality, indicating that they have not given up.

In fact, they knew very well in their hearts that their pursuit was meaningless, and all eyes were on their captain.

Can the fastest runner in football catch up with Rico who got up earlier than him?The speed of the Brazilian substitute is not slow!
Suddenly, a football match turns into a [-]-meter race between two people!

　Add more and send it, ask for a monthly ticket! !
