Chapter 124 Zhang Shun Returns, Reinforcing the Defense

The game lost the first leg of the round of 2. Zhishan High School lost the game 1-[-] and trailed by two away goals, which made the following games particularly difficult.
Everyone sat on the lawn, very annoyed and couldn't believe what happened. My team had a lot of advantages, but I didn't expect to lose the game. The most important thing is that they fell behind by two away goals. If you want to advance directly in a game, you need to score two goals without allowing the opponent to score to ensure a stable promotion.
Everyone didn't speak, lying on the lawn, the beans were scorched by the sun, and the sweat was extremely tiring, and the physical energy consumption was almost the same

Liu Qing was also very helpless sitting on the bench. Originally, the team had a lot of advantages, but she didn't expect to come to this end. The players all narrated: "Everyone, go to the locker room to rest. The sun is too big and be careful." You will suffer from heat stroke" but everyone continued to lie down as if they hadn't heard the message
Seeing that something was wrong, Wang Dong stood up, pulled Zhao Fei up, and said, "Everyone go back to the locker room first, it's too hot here."

Finally, everyone returned to the locker room together.

After arriving in the locker room, everyone remained silent and no one spoke. The whole locker room was very quiet.
Liu Qing walked into the locker room
"I have a great responsibility for today's game. This is the first time I have led the players to play a game. I hope everyone will not be discouraged and continue to work hard. We still have a chance," Liu Qing said.

"What chance is there? After falling behind by two away goals, we have already lost. What are you playing for?" said a player.

"As long as we work hard together, there will definitely be opportunities, so don't be discouraged. I believe that if we work hard together, we will definitely be able to advance," Liu Qing encouraged everyone.

Everyone still remained silent. Liu Qing had no choice but to touch Wang Dong lightly.

Wang Dong stood up knowingly and said: "Everyone, don't be too sad. We have a chance to directly advance to the next game, can't we just train and compete?" Wang Dong comforted everyone.

"What chance is there? Where is the chance? We have already lost the next game and we need to score three to advance, and we can't let the opponent score." One of the players stood up and said.

"What's wrong with the three balls? As long as we cooperate with the three balls, we can win, right?" Wang Dong said.

"How to win? In the next game, we must defend with all our strength." Everyone began to feel a little bit dissatisfied

"The game is still going to be played, what's the use of losing your temper now? Can it save the result of the game?" Wang Dong said angrily.

"Don't quarrel and lose if you lose the game, can't we just work hard together in the next round? What's the fuss about? Now everyone pack up and go home tomorrow and ZB will come to train on time tomorrow" Then Liu Qing said directly left.

"If you want me to say that our temporary coach can't do it, I said at the beginning that if she takes us to play games, she is just a team leader, okay? Let him be the head coach. I think Kashuai is out of his mind." Everyone are discussed below.

"I said, can you do the same thing in person and the other in the back?" Wang Dong couldn't bear it and said.

"Wang Dong, we said before that we don't want Liu Qing to be the head coach, and you still told us to trust her, didn't you? Now it's all right, we're going to be eliminated, you know?" Everyone pointed the finger at Wang Dong.

"Are you blaming me again? I don't care. Anyway, I'm the reserve team of the school team. I don't have a place in the reserve team. What's more, I've tried my best. Did you know that I scored the goal? Now you come here to blame me, right?" "Wang Dong said with emotion.

"We told you before that you convinced us to trust her once and now the result? We lost the game"

"You can do it, you really can do it, shut up." Zhao Fei couldn't help it anymore and stood up and said.

"Of course you don't matter. Are you a member of the school team, one is the captain, the other is the vice-captain, and two of us? Our dream is to enter the school team. There is only one chance. We want to be the champion, and you can pat your ass and leave, and you can still stay in the school team. "Everyone slowly became emotional.

"If I didn't care about the reserve league games, I'd have patted my ass and left, you know? Who doesn't want to have a good summer vacation but play football under such a hot sun?" Wang Dong said helplessly.

"Let me tell you the truth, you can only blame Team Leader Liu, and you don't look at how you are playing? Zhao Fei is the one who controls the rhythm throughout the game. When he is attacking, he has to invest in offense and defense, and she has to invest in defense." Do you know how tired he is in defense? And what about you? I just want to ask you? The four defenders are just playing blindly and can’t cooperate with conceding the ball. Is it right to talk about the coach’s problem and not your own problem? Right?” Wang Dong said seriously.

Everyone was left speechless by what Wang Dong said, but some people still disagree

“如果不是刘晴战术问题我们能输掉比赛吗？我们本来就是要使用5-3-2的为什么要使用4-4-2呢？明知道我们后防薄弱而且卡帅上一场比赛的时候5-3-2不管我们防守还是进攻都是表现很好的为什么不继续沿用呢？这不是她的问题吗？”其中一个队员忍不住的说道。

"I admit that Team Leader Liu has some problems. After all, she is not a professional. She chose to use 4-4-2 for a reason. She also wants to win. Who wants to lose?" Wang Dong said.

"We don't care about the result now, we lose and it will be difficult for us to advance to the next game, you know?"

"Well, if you don't want to play, you can quit the reserve team and go back to spend the summer vacation. But I want to remind you that this is your last chance to enter the school team. Starting next year, Kashuai will recruit freshmen from the first year of high school to enter the reserve team and school team. The team won't have you anymore," Wang Dong said seriously.

"Zhao Fei, let's go." Then Wang Dong and Zhao Fei left the locker room and went home by car.

"Actually, I had expected this result a long time ago," Wang Dong said with his head down.

"what?"

"I said that I actually expected this result a long time ago," Wang Dong repeated.

"Why do you say that?" Zhao Fei looked at Wang Dong suspiciously and asked.

"As soon as Team Leader Liu played 4-4-2, I felt like we were going to lose," Wang Dong said.

"Is it intuition?" Zhao Fei asked.

"It's not intuition, it's just that part of our defense is really bad. It's hard for them to integrate together, and the tacit understanding is very poor. It can be seen that it doesn't look like the combination of guards in our school team. If there is Zhang Shun, it's okay. But when Zhang Shunyi leaves us, the defense can only rely on the number of people instead of the individual skills of the players," Wang Dong said with his head down.

"That's true. You're right. None of our defensive players have potential. Maybe that's not accurate. It should be said that as long as they are matched together, they want to play individually, not as a team," Zhao Fei said.

"Yes, that's what it means. Without the awareness of teamwork, you can only express yourself," Wang Dong said.

"Actually, to be honest, I also have a little responsibility," Wang Dong continued.

"What do you mean?" Zhao Fei was puzzled.

"It's also my fault that I didn't tell Team Leader Liu my suggestion," Wang Dong said helplessly.

"How can this be your fault? If 1, even if you tell Team Leader Liu your suggestion, she won't consider it because she is very firm," Zhao Fei said.

"That's right, Team Leader Liu has a desire to prove himself, have you noticed?" Wang Dong looked at Zhao Fei and asked.

"I can see what's wrong with her?"

"I don't know, don't ask me," Wang Dong said helplessly.

"It's good, I thought of comforting the team members, but they want to say that the leader Liu is not in private, and now they are turning the blame on you." Zhao Fei shook his head and said.

"It's okay to turn to me, but if they don't trust Team Leader Liu, it will be very difficult for the next game," Wang Dong said thoughtfully. .

"Then what should we do? You said that our chances are really slim now. What should we do if we are behind by two goals in the away game? How can we make up for our poor defense?" Zhao Fei asked.

"There is only one way and that is to call Zhang Shun back," Wang Dong said with a smile.

"Stop joking, how is it possible? Isn't he going on a trip?" Zhao Fei said.

"Isn't it enough to let him come back?" Wang Dong said.

"Will he come back?" Zhao Fei was puzzled.

"I can only try other methods. If there is no other way, if the next team leader Liu uses 5-3-2, it will be too late, because there will be fewer people involved in the attack, and our next game is mainly to score three goals. Only one can ensure promotion," Wang Dong said, shaking his head.

"I'm still more worried about Team Leader Liu, will everyone reject her again?" Wang Dong said.

"They never think about themselves. Do they blame others if they lose the game with so many shortcomings?" Zhao Fei said angrily.

"If everyone has that awareness, wouldn't everyone be able to play in a professional team?" Wang Dong said with a smile.

"That's right, otherwise our national team wouldn't play so badly. The reason for losing the game is not because of ourselves, but because of the coach," Zhao Fei said helplessly.

"This is also why they are in the reserve team instead of the school team," Wang Dong said.

After returning home, Wang Dong directly sent a message to Zhang Shun

"What is Zhang Shun doing? Is he still traveling now?"

Waited for about 10 minutes
"Yeah, I'm having a great time in Suzhou now."

"When can you come back?"

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"

"It's like this in the quarter-finals. We just lost the game. Now we are 1-2 and they have an advantage of two away goals. So the next game to advance is to make sure that the opponent does not score. Two goals to advance"

"what do you mean?"

"What I mean is, can you come back? We need you. There are really no potential defenders now." Wang Dong was particularly helpless and had been waiting for Zhang Shun's news, and he was also very anxious for fear that Zhang Shun would disagree.
"If I go back now, can I still play? Didn't I quit the reserve team? Am I not on the list?" Zhang Shun asked.

"I think your name is still in the squad, as long as you come back, you can continue to play," Wang Dong said.

"When is the game time for the second round?"

"The approximate time for the second round is next Wednesday and there are still four days to go. Can you help me?" Wang Dong said helplessly.

"I can buy a ticket tomorrow to help you play one-eighth rounds," Zhang Shun said cheerfully.

"Thank you so much, and there is another advantage of your coming, that is, there is one more person who supports Team Leader Liu. Now the only ones who support Team Leader Liu are me, Zhao Fei, Han Zhen, and Zhao Heng again. I added you, and everyone else is saying that Team Leader Liu is not," Wang Dong said.

This time is really good, Zhang Shun can come to help the game this time, the return really helped the defense of the reserve team, so that Zhao Fei can not worry about the defense of the defenders, and only needs to devote himself to the offense, which is already Enough is enough to liberate Zhao Fei

Wang Dong hurriedly called Zhao Fei

"Zhao Fei, I asked Zhang Shun just now and he said he can come back," Wang Dong said with a smile.

"Really? When will you come back?" Zhao Fei asked.

"He said he will come back tomorrow after buying a ticket. In this case, you don't need to ask about the defense. It is enough for us to go directly to the offense and don't need to go to the defense anymore," Wang Dong said excitedly.

"That's good, if he really comes back, I will be much more relaxed." Zhao Fei finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Then Wang Dong went to sleep after eating

On the second day, Wang Dong went to Zhao Fei's house to find Zhao Fei as before.

Then the two of them went directly to the school together. Today, everyone was not as active as before, and they were all late, as if they were protesting.
But Liu Qing didn't say anything and walked over slowly to let everyone gather for training

Except for Wang Dong and Zhao Fei, they stood up and went to train. The others continued to sit on the lawn indifferently as if they hadn't heard it.

"Go to training, do you hear me?" Liu Qing said loudly.

After saying it several times in a row, she was still indifferent. Liu Qing's words had no deterrent effect, so Wang Dong had no choice but to run over and said, "Aren't you training? Then please go home and rest, okay?"

"If you don't train, it means that you are not members of the reserve team. I can write down your names and quit the team directly," Wang Dong said seriously.

When the other team members heard this, they got up quickly and went to training.

"Leader Liu just can't be gentle with them and knows?" Wang Dong looked at Liu Qing and said.

"They must hate me very much in their hearts now, and of course I also hate myself, if only I followed your advice," Liu Qing said with a sigh.

"Don't we have a second round? What's the rush and I have a surprise for you today?" Wang Dong said mysteriously.

"What surprise?" Liu Qing asked suspiciously.

Wang Dong glanced at his watch and said, "You'll know after a while."

Afterwards, Wang Dong went into training. Although those people joined the training, they were all downcast and lacking energy. Wang Dong was also very angry when he saw it. Since the establishment of this reserve team, various things have happened every day. Wang Dong Dong has long been used to it

"I really don't want to continue playing now, why should I train? It's really unnecessary to train if I lose sooner or later," the other players said while training.

"What are you doing? Training can't stop your mouths, can it?" Wang Dong walked over and said.

"Now you two run [-] laps and you are not allowed to leave the court after running," Wang Dong said seriously.

"What are you? Why do I have to obey you if you order me?" The two gradually became emotional.

"Okay, you can just leave the team without running and go back to spend your summer vacation," Wang Dong said.

"Let's go" and then the two left the court directly and went home.

Wang Dong also didn't take it seriously because the two of them were just substitutes. Wang Dongxin wanted to give the whole team a bad start, so he waited for Zhang Shun to arrive. He had a comprehensive plan to make everyone willingly convince Liu Qing.
Wang Dong glanced at the time, Zhang Shun had almost arrived at the school gate by this time.

Then we all got together
"I have one thing to tell you, it's very simple. Our team will come in a while, and a person will arrive soon, and he should have arrived at the school gate by now," Wang Dong said mysteriously.

Only Zhao Fei knew about it, and even Liu Qing was kept in the dark.

After a while, Zhang Shun walked over. Liu Qing was shocked when she saw it. The other team members were also very surprised when they saw Zhang Shun.

"Leader Liu, long time no see," Zhang Shun said with a smile.

"Long time no see Wang Dong, is the surprise you mentioned Zhang Shun?" Liu Qing looked at Wang Dong and asked.

"That's right, it's Zhang Shun," Wang Dong said with a smile.

"Zhang Shun came back this time to solve the problem of instability in our defense. Everyone has seen that the two players have left the reserve team. Now there are four of us in the starting positions of the reserve team. The main force of the team is now. If you feel that you don’t want to continue playing and feel that there is no chance for the second round, you can leave directly, because after calling yesterday to ask about the other team members, the other members of the school team have almost gone home. Alright, if that's the case, I'll call all the members of our school team to help the reserve team play, and then we can have a full main lineup," Wang Dong said seriously.

Obviously, everyone disagrees. In fact, Wang Dong gave everyone a big blow. In fact, if they really leave, other members of the school team will not be able to help the reserve team play games, because their names are not included in the roster submitted. If you start, it is a violation and you will be sentenced to lose the game.

"Okay, after finishing my business, let's ask our coach Liu to talk about it," Wang Dong said with a smile.

"First of all, we welcome Zhang Shun's return. This is a very good thing, but Zhang Shun's pressure will be particularly great, but Zhao Fei is liberated, and he can devote himself to attacking together with Han Zhen and Wang Dong. You don't need to worry about defense anymore." Liu Qing could see that she was very happy.

"Also, we still have three days left for the second round. I hope everyone will train hard and cooperate with each other to improve their tacit understanding, and strive to win the second round and advance directly," Liu Qing encouraged everyone.

After Wang Dong and Liu Qing were together, the other players were also shocked. I was really afraid that I would not be able to stay in the reserve team and could not continue to play games.

And Wang Dong also achieved his goal and is very happy

"Zhang Shun, why didn't you tell me when you came back?" Liu Qing asked.

"Leader Liu is wrong. It should be Coach Liu. Wang Dong didn't let me tell you. You can't blame me," Zhang Shun said innocently.

"Yes, I want to give you a surprise." Wang Dong looked at Liu Qing and said with a smile.

"Isn't it going to delay your trip? I just called you over." Liu Qing asked embarrassedly.

"It's nothing, anyway, I'm tired of playing outside. Now that the team is in trouble, I'll come back and help," Zhang Shun said with a smile.

"Wang Dong, have you told Zhang Shun about the current situation of the team?"

"I have said everything and he understands it now. It is enough to leave the defense to Zhang Shun, unlike Zhao Pengcheng who is a latecomer, but Zhang Shun has always played as a defender. He can and is the best defender. Let us rest assured," Wang Dong said with a smile.

"I'll be proud if you continue to praise me," Zhang Shun said with a smile.

"I'm telling the truth, okay? Don't be modest, but you and Zhao Pengcheng are really strong together, but I don't know if you can do it alone?" Wang Dong said with a smile.

"You said that I have also played a few games in the reserve league. Can you see how good my strength is?" Zhang Shun said.

"Okay, stop making trouble, let's study the next round of the game, what do you think?" Liu Qing asked.

"Coach Liu, just tell me what line you want to use," Zhao Fei asked.

"You guys should continue to call me Team Leader Liu, don't call me Coach Liu, I'm still not used to it," Liu Qing said.

"Well, let's call you Team Leader Liu," Wang Dong said with a smile.

"I feel that we should continue to use 4-4-2," Liu Qing said.

Then the three of them looked into each other's eyes.
"Is it still 4-4-2?" Wang Dong asked.

"What's wrong?" Liu Qing asked.

"I thought you would switch to 5-3-2," Zhang Shun said with a smile.

"But Team Leader Liu, I still admire you. You get up wherever you fall, don't you?" Zhao Fei said with a smile.

"Didn't you find out? We performed very well when we played 4-4-2, but the finishing kick was very poor. If we seize the opportunity well, I think it will be very easy to overtake in the second round," Liu Qing said.

"What's more, now that Zhang Shun is back, Zhao Fei needs to defend and attack again. It will save a lot of energy, won't it?" Liu Qing continued.

"Leader Liu, you are right, but I guess I will stick to No. [-] Middle School. After all, they have the advantage of two away goals and they are not in a hurry to attack," Wang Dong said.

"The formation of 4-4-2 is very balanced as long as the players choose well, whether it is offense or defense, isn't it? The two forwards can also change the two midfielders during the kicking process, right?" Liu Qing continued.

"Leader Liu, what you said is very reasonable, but the other team members must have doubts again," Zhao Fei asked.

"As long as you guys believe in me," Liu Qing said with a smile.

"Don't worry, Team Leader Liu. The few of us are your strong backing. We will do our best to help the reserve team win the game," Zhao Fei said.

"Zhao Fei, your captain is also very good," Liu Qing said.

"That's right, Zhao Fei, you have more leadership than me now," Wang Dong said jokingly.

Afterwards, several people chatted together, but Wang Dong still had an unspeakable feeling in his heart.
