The Strongest in Prince of Tennis

Chapter 787 Four opponents, grouping

Marousi Stadium.

The referee announced the third minute after the end of the game between Switzerland and Japan.

side of the court.

The rest area of ​​the Swiss team.

Henry, he looked up at the auditorium behind the Swiss team rest area, his eyes full of disgust.

“Amadeus completely lost to Shimurasuke, and the Swiss team also lost to the Japan team. Fortunately, I thought the Swiss team would win before the game started, but it turned out like this. It seems that the strength gap between the Swiss team and the Japan team is far away. It’s bigger than the difference in points between them.”

“Henry, known as the “noble son”, was completely suppressed by Shiraishi of the Japan team. It’s because you can’t even touch the opponent’s ball. It seems that the Swiss players are seriously overestimated.”

“Albert, Randy, Henry, Pete, Amadeus, the Swiss team’s players in this round of invitational rounds are already the top of the Swiss team. Although they still have many masters who have not played, they are in doubles. At the level, they no longer have a stronger doubles combination than the combination of Albert and Randy, and the combination of Henry and Pete. They also do the same on the singles.

There is no better player than Amadeus. In today’s game, the Swiss team was swept by the Japan team. In this year’s U17 Cup main match, if the Swiss team meets the Japan team, the final result will not be much better than today. It seems that the Swiss team will still not win the championship this year. .

“Champion? I was beaten so badly by the Japan team, and the Japan team is missing the two top players of Byodoin Fenghuang and Tanegashima Shuji today. For the Swiss team, they are lucky if they can reach the semifinals this year.”

“The Japan team has a king-like atmosphere, especially their captain Shimurasuke. His strength is completely dominant. As for the Swiss team, whether it is Henry and other players or their leader Amadeus, they are far away. Not as good as the Japan team.”

A large number of irritating and mocking discussions with the Swiss team were ringing inside the audience and scouts behind the Swiss team’s rest area.

“Let’s go.”

Suddenly, a sound came into Henry’s ears, and a hand was placed on Henry’s shoulder at the same time.

“Today, you lost, I lost, and our Swiss team also lost. Since we are the loser who lost the game, we must have the consciousness of the loser. These harsh sounds are what we must face after failure. If you don’t want to continue to hear, then try to be the winner next time.”

“You have also seen that the Japan team is stronger than we expected, and the gap between us and the Japan team is far greater than expected. Rather than being angry, we need to continue to work hard.

Amadeus patted Henry on the shoulder and said.

“Yes, Captain, I will work harder.

“Next time I meet Shiraishi Kuranosuke of the Japan team again, I won’t be the one who loses!”

Henry gritted his teeth.

Ten seconds later.

“Shimura, his current strength is too strong to be clearly judged, and the Japan team under his leadership is even stronger than last year.

“Next U17 Cup”

After taking a complicated look at Shimura and everyone from the Japan team, Amadeus, who had just comforted the juniors of the same team, took up the tennis bag, reincarnated and left the rest area, and walked towards the player’s exit channel.

The other players of the Swiss team, they soon also went to the exit of the court.

As the losing side, the players of the Swiss team, regardless of their mental adjustment ability, they do not want to continue to stay in court as a foil for the Japan team.

No one of them wants to stay in court to listen to those discussions and harsh ridicules in the audience, especially those from the sports media and scouts.

They know very well that those comments and ridicules may be called content or even headlines in sports news tomorrow.

The Japan team rest area on the other side of the court.

“Shimura, you are the strongest!”

“The Japan team is really strong. I am optimistic about them defending this year’s U17 Cup champion.

“Of course, the players who participated in the U17 Cup last year, especially the core main players, almost all of them are still in the team. The strength of the Japan team this year is stronger than last year!”

“Shimura, lead the team to win this year’s championship!”

Although it was the winning side, and the voice heard was far more positive and full of encouragement and praise than the Swiss team, but the head coach of the Japan team San Mifūne Nyudō San and the Japanese team players headed by Shimura, they also left soon. The court.

In the next month, the Japan team will have to play four tournaments, and the Japan team has also booked a flight to leave Athens.

After half an hour.

Inside the hotel booked by the Japan team.

“You all know that in this expedition, we still have four opponents that we haven’t played against.

Three Mifūne Nyudō three stood in front of the expedition players such as Shimura, Oni, Duke, Tokugawa, and Irie, who had only had a preliminary rest in less than fifteen minutes after returning to the hotel, and said very directly: “They are the Indian team. ‘Thailand* national team, Egypt* team, South Africa team.”

“Two of these four teams are located in Asia, and two are located in Africa. The distance between the two teams is very long, and their strength is relatively weak. Although the points of the Indian * Thailand team, the Thai * national team, and the South * Africa team are ranked It has entered the top thirty-two in the world, but the highest ranked South African team among them is also behind the fifteenth place.”

“So, for the next expedition, I will divide you into two teams. One will fight in Africa to deal with the South African team and the Egyptian team, and the other will fight in Asia to deal with the Indian team and the Thai national team.

Three Mifūne Nyudō three announced his arrangements.

“Grouping after playing in the European zone? This is indeed a better choice.”

Ghost Shen said in agreement.

“Should we be divided into two groups this time? In the face of opponents who are far away and who are not strong enough, this arrangement is indeed normal.”

Kimijima said while holding his glasses.

“I want to expedition in groups. I hope I will be assigned to the Asian group. It used to be more than four games a month, but now it has become more than two games. The time has become a lot. After the game, it is a good choice to travel in Thailand for a few days. .”

The way Mōri Juzaburō expected.

Although Mifune’s arrangement was sudden, everyone including Shimura was not too surprised.

In the round-robin invitational tournament in the expedition, two doubles and three singles. Even if all of them are played, there are only seven players who need to play. Counting a substitute player who must be reported on the player list, only eight players are needed. enough.

However, most countries in the world, including the Japan team, have the same number of expedition players as the number of players in each team stipulated in the U17 Cup. There are 20 players, and the number is 2.5 times that of eight.

In the past few years, even in the previous year and the year before the rise of the Kamto brothers and Takeshi, grouping in the expedition is indeed a luxury for the Japan team, and it is basically impossible to appear, because the overall strength of the Japan team was not strong at that time. The comprehensive points are after twenty all the year round.

Grouping in the expedition, each group playing against different opponents, this can indeed reduce the travel time of a single player, allowing the players to rest better and play more calmly.

But in the case of insufficient overall strength, grouping against different players is giving the opponent points and reducing the probability of one’s own team competing to qualify for the U17 Cup.

However, in the last two years, especially this year after winning the U17 Cup, the overall strength of the Japan team is far from comparable to that of previous years.

Although the team’s overall score is still not the best in the world, even the British* National Team, Greece*La team and other teams ranked in the top ten in terms of comprehensive points, they sometimes group expeditions.

In the most recent expedition, the number of teams against different opponents in groups has not been many, but they have been conducted.

“A player in the Asian group.

Mifune went on to say that he did not give the players too much time to talk, and did not give Maori time to continue talking about how to travel in Thailand.

“Shimurasuke, Chitose Senri, Niou Masaharu, Tokugawa Kazuya, Irie Kanata, Unbreakable Iron Man, Yamato Yudai, Mutsu Yuma, Mutsu Yuho, Mitsuya Akuto.”

“The captain is”

Mifune’s gaze fell directly on Shimura, and said loudly: “The leader of the Asian team is Shimura.,

“Sure enough, no matter which team, as long as Youzhi Village is in it, he is the captain.”

Irie said with a smile.

“I was placed in the Asian group? This grouping is better. In terms of time, the Asian group ended the expedition one week earlier than the African group. However, in our Asian group, except for Yuma and Yuho, all other players are singles. It seems that it is difficult for me to play 127 in the singles.

Mitsuya Akuto shook his head slightly.

“Shimura and I are in a group. Such a group is really good.”

Big and smiling.

Regarding the arrangement of Mifune’s roster, none of the players who were assigned to the Asian group expressed their opinions, and they did not express their disagreement with Shimura as the captain of the Asian group.

“The rest is the African group. I don’t need to talk about the specific list.

“As for the captain

Three Mifūne Nyudō three’s eyes swept over the ghost, Duke, Shiraishi, Omagari, Kimijima, Tohno Atsukyo, Tsukimitsu Ochi, Mōri Juzaburō, Dateman, and Banriya, and his gaze finally stayed on the ghost. “Ghost, you are the captain of the African team.”

“Yes, coach.

The ghost said calmly.

Duke, Kimijima, Oku Ryuuji and others seemed to have expected it a long time ago, and none of them expressed surprise that the ghost was the leader of the African team.

Considering both the player’s strength and the player’s prestige, the captain of the African group is either a ghost or Duke, and ghost, he usually shows stronger leadership ability than Duke.

“Okay, that’s it.”

After completing the group arrangement, the three Mifūne Nyudō three exhorted: “After today’s game, I will return directly to the training camp. The next expedition will be completely left to you. You just won the Swiss team. Don’t fall on top of the Indian team, the Thai national team, the Egyptian team, and the South African team.”

“Don’t worry, coach, it won’t.”

“I will be careful, the African team I lead will never lose!”

Shimura and Oni said at the same time.

Two hours later.

On the plane.

“The perfect player sheltered by God and the player who can best represent the artistic atmosphere of Thailand in the past 30 years?”

“Indian *du team”

“Thailand* National Team”

Shimura said softly, his eyes falling on the notebook from Mitsuya Akuto. “These two teams ranked the top 32 in the world in terms of points. They also have some interesting newcomers this year.

What Shimura looked at was the relevant information about the Indian and Thai national teams.
