Born to be a coach [soccer]

Chapter 105

Anton stood on the sidelines when the halftime whistle blew.When every Liverpool "player" left the field, he reached out, patted their shoulders, and comforted them, hoping that the loss in the first half would not make the players too frustrated and affect their performance in the second half.

In the first half, Liverpool generally implemented Anton's pre-match tactical arrangements and on-the-spot command, but Ronaldo's performance was too good. The defense line that Anton had placed high hopes on could not withstand the pressure of Ronaldo and lost consecutively at the last minute. Two goals have caused the current difficult situation.

The role of superstars is too obvious.

In contrast, the other players of Manchester United, Lu Xiaopang Rooney, "Brother Chic" Berbatov and others... Their light was completely overshadowed by Ronaldo. In the first half of the friendly match, player C was almost alone. stage.

But this is a friendly match, which means that each team has double the number of substitutions compared to the official match.So, at 65 minutes into the second half, NPC Sir Alex Ferguson made a decision to replace Ronaldo with Michael Owen who had just returned from injury.

Cristiano Ronaldo's performance was too amazing. Originally, Liverpool fans would applaud out of politeness and respect.But because Irving came off the bench, the applause for Ronaldo immediately turned into boos for Michael Irving.

Michael Owen is an old Liverpool player who later moved to rival Manchester United.So as long as he returns to Anfield once, Liverpool fans will boo him once, trying to boo him until he doubts his life. The "Life in the Green" simulator also faithfully reproduces the fans' attitude towards Irving.

Because of this booing, no one noticed that Ronaldo exchanged a look with Anton, who was directing from the sidelines, when he left the field.Anton gently untied his arms and gave Ronaldo a high-five to congratulate him.Then his slender fingers flicked in the air seemingly unconsciously-this was a typing action: Anton wanted to date the other party, and after the game, he would have a good chat through the instant dialog box.

Ronaldo wrinkled his nose, raised his head proudly, and ignored Anton.He went to sit on the bench to rest on his own, like Anton did before, folded his arms, watched from the sidelines, and watched the rest of the game.

But when Ronaldo came off the field, the pressure on Liverpool's defense suddenly decreased.The defense led by Carragher has finally been tightly organized again. Without the sharp spear of Ronaldo, it will not be easy for Manchester United to expand their lead.

As a result, the weakness of Liverpool's "powerless front" became more and more prominent. The home team's ball often returned in vain shortly after halftime. The fans in the stands shouted anxiously, but the players on the field were helpless— Can't find an opportunity.

If you use a superstar like Ronaldo, the effect on the field will be immediate; a spiritual leader like Liverpool captain Gerrard, the effect on the field cannot be ignored.

0 to 3 behind the deadly enemy, but unable to attack the first two miles of the opponent's penalty area, the players in the Liverpool team are not to mention how frustrated.However, the captain, Gerrard, was still running tirelessly, shouting loudly and clapping hands as soon as he encountered a dead ball, trying to mobilize the emotions of the players.

In the end, it was Gerrard who scored a face-saving goal for Anton's team with a long shot.

The "difficult mode" created by the "Green Life" simulator for Antonsen ended with the team losing 1-3 to rival Manchester United and losing in the preseason.

After the game, the attitude of the Liverpool fans in the stands towards Anton, the new "airborne" coach, also divided into two levels:

Some fans shouted loudly when Anton walked towards the fans: "Young boy, why do you make us believe in you?" Obviously, it is emotionally unacceptable for Lee Kee fans to lose to their rivals so uselessly at home. thing.So they shouted, even in the preseason, someone needs to take responsibility for the loss of this game.

The other part is rational fans, knowing that Anton encountered such a strong opponent in the first game after hastily "taking over", and a loss does not explain the problem.But they still hoped to get some reassurance or comfort from Anton.

Some fans held up signs: "Anton, please save our team!"

Someone also shouted to Anton loudly: "Coach, please give me an accurate word! How to solve the team's problems!"

The loss of this game was quite ugly, but not many Anfield fans left early, but stayed to "torture" Anton, which can be regarded as true love.

Anton took his "players" to communicate with the fans in the stands, and apologized to the fans for the poor performance of the game.In Anton's view, he is the head coach, and he is naturally responsible for the team's failure. Even if there are ten thousand reasons to shirk his responsibility, he must take the blame—he doesn't take the blame, is he still pointing at the players? Can't memorize it?

Ronaldo, who was getting up from the visiting team's bench and about to leave, stopped when he saw this scene, holding the game ball in his arms, and looked in Anton's direction a few more times.

The neat hat-trick in the first half dissipated a lot of the unhappiness in this guy's heart. Seeing Anton, who was caught off guard, took the initiative to take the blame for the loss, Ronaldo felt a little bit uncomfortable-was it him in the first half? Playing too hard?

But the spirit of competitive sports is like this. It is the only purpose to strive for victory, and it is not for children to play house and give way.

Thinking of this, Ronaldo immediately left the stadium with his hat-trick trophy, then quit the game and returned to the login interface of "Green Life".He suddenly remembered the gesture Anton made when he was off the court, and he probably wanted to chat with him.

In other words, since Ronaldo and Anton's "team formation" failed and they were confirmed to be the opponents of the challenge, they have not communicated with each other online or offline.

So Ronaldo clicked on the "instant dialogue" with Anton.

But when he thought of Anton's "teammate" being intercepted and then teamed up with other people, Ronaldo's unhappiness came up again.

His unhappiness is more or less related to that "other person".

Since his transfer to La Liga, Ronaldo has been being compared with "that person". Their names are always put together. Many people praise them as the "double pride" of the moment. But there is always a voice: talent belongs to Messi, and hard work belongs to Ronaldo. The implication is that Ronaldo's talent is not as good as Messi's.

Maybe people who say this have never considered that Ronaldo's talent in football has already surpassed hundreds of millions of people on this planet.This kind of voice appears only because there is still a Messi in the world.

However, now that player L and player A form a team so easily, and his teammates in the game are cut off so easily... Ronaldo is naturally upset, and immediately closes the "instant dialogue box" .

Unexpectedly, at this moment, a green light flickered in front of his eyes, but it was Anton who sent him a message as soon as he left the arena.

"Great performance! I am convinced." Anton said.

Seeing that Anton was convinced, Ronaldo immediately felt comfortable again.He recalled what he had seen and heard before leaving, and finally replied to Anton: "How is it, the pressure from the fans... is it okay?"

Anton quickly replied: "The love is deep and the responsibility is the most important. The fans' mood can be completely understood as long as they think about it a little bit."

Ronaldo: ... also.

"Thank you for giving my team a head-on blow! It seems that this mirroring task can't be taken lightly..."

Ronaldo was a little confused: what is... mirror mission?

"The only thing we can be thankful for now is that this is a preseason game." The instant dialog box continued to flash, and Anton had no reservations, chatting with Ronaldo like an old friend.

Ronaldo: You have to answer something!Anton couldn't be left talking alone like this all the time.

"But your lineup... I'm afraid this Champions League challenge..." No matter how straightforward Ronaldo is, he is embarrassed to say that Anton's team is useless.But during the match just now, Ronaldo really felt that whether the team led by Anton could qualify for the Champions League...is still a big question mark.

"It doesn't matter! I have already communicated with the fans and the team. There is an old saying in China called 'be brave when you know your shame'. It might be a good thing to sound the alarm for the team before the season."

"As for the lineup, I will think about it carefully. By the way, player L was recruited by the national team and is not in the team. However, even if he is there, I don't think the result of this game will change much."

The lineup of Messi and Liverpool... can't be pinched yet.

Ronaldo didn't expect Anton to talk about player L so frankly. After thinking about it, he didn't know what to reply, so he casually sent a "question mark" emoji.

Anton immediately replied: "By the way, give me a chance to treat you to dinner! The time, place and what to eat are up to you. As long as there is no competition, I will be there whenever you are called."

"What?" Ronaldo thought to himself: This one is really thinking.We were just talking about the lineup, but suddenly we turned to eating.

But Anton invites you to dinner...

A moving picture that I had seen suddenly appeared in Ronaldo's mind. A small Chinese hot pot is full of mouth-watering ingredients. The hot pot has been boiled, and the small fire is slowly gurgling, gurgling, tempting very.

He suddenly remembered that when Messi "airborne" Sunderland and Anton was "extorted" from all directions at the same time, the only thing he expressed through social media was that he wanted to invite someone to dinner.

Invite a friend who was delayed by a game bug and failed to form a team to dinner.

I hope to make up for the regret of this friend a little bit.

Ronaldo suddenly felt very refreshed, and the little depression before was thrown away in an instant.

It turns out that Anton didn't forget about the "failure to form a team" at the first time when he formed an alliance with the victim!

"Are you serious? I decide the time, place and what to eat? What if I want you to cook by yourself?" C Luoxi replied earnestly.He is not a foodie, on the contrary, he is very disciplined in his diet.However, I did hear that Anton knew good food and was quite good at cooking before—the news seemed to come from Ancelotti or somewhere else.

"Follow Taiwan's order!" In addition to this sentence, Anton also sent an "apron" emoji.

In other words, why is there such an expression in a football simulation management game?

"That's a deal!" Ronaldo felt very comfortable, "I'll tell you the time and place later!"

"But you and Player L must prepare well for this season, and I will not show mercy when I meet the Red Devils again!"

Ronaldo typed this sentence, looking forward to the upcoming "Challenge of the Champions League".

When Anton logged out of "Life in the Greenery", Messi next door continued to immerse himself in this simulation game, with his eyes closed, his face serious, and his little brows tightly frowned.It seems that the task of "Life in Greenery" entrusting Messi to the national team is not so easy.

And the Argentina team is so important to Messi.

Anton couldn't help thinking of Ronaldo who had just played against him in the simulator.

Great players need great opponents.

These two will definitely help each other out.

The author has something to say: To make a digression, as a KOP who is more Buddhist, I have no opinion about the golden boy Irving's transfer to Manchester United. There is no position to say anything for others to find their own way out.

However, Owen is not considered the most extreme example of transferring to a sworn enemy. The most extreme example has already appeared in the article, that is, the red-haired teenager Colbeck who "has a rebellious bone in the back of his head". In reality, he directly transferred from Sunderland. Transferred to Newcastle United, the No.1 direct transfer to the "mortal enemy" in the Premier League. Obviously he has a very big heart, a heart that is not afraid of booing.

In addition, I love both Mei and Luo, and they are indispensable.
