Jagged Wings

Chapter 119 Prediction Gate

With the previous foreshadowing, it became a matter of course for Reyes to join the coaching staff, and the players accepted it.Of course, some people are not happy.But in the face of such facts, it is not easy to say anything directly.

Because he has already qualified ahead of schedule, Aragones set the last game as a game for the substitute players to find their status.As Reyes who has just entered the coaching staff, Aragones also positioned the third group match against Saudi Arabia as his "review battle".

He asked Reyes to collect intelligence on Saudi Arabia, and then make a report at the pre-match analysis meeting, and also put forward feasible suggestions.Reyes naturally took the order full of confidence and left.

Because they have already qualified, the coaching staff gave the players a vacation to give them time to rest their mental and physical strength.And the two psychological counselors assigned by the Football Association also started to go out to talk to players with psychological problems.

To be honest, the domestic media did not give too much reaction to Spain's ability to qualify for the group stage. After all, Spain's own strength and opponents in the group stage are there. If it plays normally, qualifying is not a problem.And they pay more attention to Spain's own tactical issues and their performance in the knockout round.

Of course, Reyes' becoming a member of the coaching staff has also become a topic. The Spanish coaching staff only announced the result, but they were vague about the reason.At least from the perspective of the outside world, under normal circumstances, if you really want to choose a player to join the coaching staff, the midfielder Harvey or the team banner Raul are more suitable than Reyes, but why is it Reyes?Aside from a Champions League title, Reyes is unknown in most eyes.Fame is something that takes time to accumulate.

There must be something tricky here!

As soon as the word "tricky" was mentioned, the pores of the reporters began to get excited: this is the news point!This is hype talk!The pervasive media began to use all kinds of abilities to find the reason.

There is an old saying that when a wall falls, everyone pushes it... Oh no, everyone gathers firewood and flames rise!
The Spanish national team has a lot of people, and it is definitely not monolithic, and some people don't take Reyes seriously.The pro-Real Madrid "Marca" first broke the news: According to the information provided by reliable insiders, Reyes has a high accuracy of prediction...

"Aspen" is not far behind, they even got some information about the games predicted by Reyes, and then made a table and put it in the newspaper...

Then Reyes' phone went off!
Reyes has two phones, one is for work, used to contact the media and work-related matters; the other is for private use, only his family and friends know.In the past two days, Reyes' phone ringing for this work has hardly been interrupted.Some people came to ask Reyes for the tips of his predictions, some people came to ask him for verification, some people came to question the authenticity of the form, after all, those are the games that have passed...

Of course, more people asked Reyes for the result of the next game...

There is even someone who claims to be a gambling company and is willing to pay a high price to buy the results of all future games from him...

Of course, there are also voices against it.Because of the time lag, the results of the games that Reyes predicted in advance were already over by the time they were published, so many people questioned that Reyes was using this incident to hype, and they even asked Reyes to stand come out and explain...

Some people even named this event "prediction gate".

Reyes felt as if he was lying on the gun: You guys started everything, okay?I didn't say a word about it from beginning to end.

A lot of news about many teams in the World Cup is usually nothing, but because the World Cup has received more attention, many things have been magnified.Moreover, the media's hype and ability to find news points are definitely at the level of Shattered Void. Fighting with them will exhaust you to death.

So Reyes chose to ignore it!
He has more important things to do, which is to collect intelligence on the last Saudi Arabia.Of course, all the details of that game are in his mind, and the so-called "collection of information" is just a show for others to see.

Although the World Cup is called the "World Cup", Asian football, as a football wasteland, has always played a role in it.In the Korea-Japan World Cup, the whole world knows how South Korea was able to reach the semi-finals.Under normal circumstances, their ability to reach the knockout round is already the kind of unnatural luck that helped an old lady cross the road.

In this World Cup, the awesome South Korea and Japan were beaten back to their original form, and Saudi Arabia also had a draw and a loss, and was eliminated early.

In the last match, the qualifying Spain and the eliminated Saudi Arabia were more of a battle of honor.Although it was announced early that a substitute lineup would be dispatched, the outside world is still optimistic about Spain's victory in this game.They despise Saudi Arabia so much that they can't even beat Spain's substitute lineup.

Although the hero of the Saudi team, Overland, made fans all over the world applaud with a solo ride in the 1994 World Cup in the United States, people's memories of the Saudi team's World Cup are more related to "fiasco" and "worst". , "No fighting spirit" and other words together.

Following the 8-0 victory by the German team in the last cup, this time they were swept by Ukraine 4-0. The "least aggressive team" was once again none other than the Saudi team.

The "disease" of Saudi players is also a common problem of many West Asian teams-too much money.A rich and comfortable life is not a bad thing for players. However, a superior life is the "culprit" of Saudi football's complacency and players' reluctance to further improve themselves in overseas high-level leagues.

Even if Spain fights casually, it may be enough for Saudi Arabia. This is one of the reasons why Aragones is relieved to let Reyes "show his talents".

The news that Reyes will undertake the tactical analysis and prediction work of this game was also disclosed to the media by insiders.Now the media will be happy, this is definitely the rhythm of giving pillows when you are sleepy, and Jiaduobao when you are thirsty!Worrying about Reyes not responding to "Prediction Gate"

Whether it is those who are curious or doubtful, this time they have focused their attention on this game that is just a battle of honor.In a survey conducted by a company before the game, 78% of people chose to abandon the life-and-death battle between Tunisia and Ukraine for the question "Which game will you watch in this group game?" Honorable Mention could also be a one-sided game.

The stove was set up, just waiting for Reyes to come up.

The center of the storm was calm. While other teammates were taking advantage of the vacation to go out to play, Reyes locked himself in the dormitory of the hotel and piled up a lot of information there.Hang a "Do Not Disturb" sign at the door, refuse anyone's visits, euphemistically call it "behind the door", and lock yourself in the room.

Of course, he didn't bother to read the true and false news, the only thing he did was - sleep!
