Born to be a coach [soccer]

Chapter 131

"Mr. Coach, who do you think is the best disciple in this game?"

"Everyone performed well, and the best one is of course Royce." Anton was blocked by countless microphones in the mixed interview area, and he seemed to be unable to leave without answering. He had to be patient and answered the reporters' questions one by one. , "This is a game that belongs to Royce."

Royce was almost kicked, but his mentality was not affected in the slightest. Instead, he scored twice and scored two goals in a row.Anton was extremely satisfied with him.

"What do you think of him undressing and celebrating after scoring the winning goal?" It's cool to undress and celebrate, but you will get a yellow card.

Anton raised his eyebrows, and answered simply and concisely: "The young man is so handsome! Next question—"

"Then... what do you think of the Arsenal players who provoked you when they were sent off?"

Anton: "It doesn't affect me, but I don't know if it affects him."

Arsenal player Alexander Song challenged Anton and "The Sufferer" Royce when he was sent off with a red card.The provocation was cool for a while, and Anton didn't know if the FA would not impose additional penalties.

"But how did you do it?"

"How did you do that?" Anton was puzzled.

"That bottle..."

Only then did Anton remember that Song kicked a bottle at him, and he crushed it with one hand on the spot. That's how Song was scared away.To be honest, Anton crushed the bottle because of a moment of anger—it was obviously a pretty good bottle, recyclable.

"We at Sunderland often prepare some soft bottles for the coaching staff and players to squeeze and play with. The next question—"

The reporters were quite speechless after hearing this. Is there really such a thing?Aren't the sports drink bottles of each company all hard plastic water bottles uniformly manufactured by the sponsors?Moreover, Song was so frightened that his face turned pale on the spot, and he directly retreated into the player tunnel. That scene was clearly filmed and broadcast live on the spot.Where did that soft bottle come from?

The reporters realized that Anton didn't plan to answer the question seriously today, and finally someone asked him something that he needed to think about before answering.

"What do you think of Miss Marcie's law enforcement work today?"

"Wearing glasses!" Anton couldn't help laughing after answering this sentence, "But I really hope that you ask this question not because you think of her as a woman, but because of her Be a professional football referee."

Otherwise, why not ask about the performance of the bald Webber, but why ask Marcie?

The reporters were quite satisfied with the answer. After all, Anton's smile was very pretty, and they were dumbfounded for a few times, and no one asked questions - but Anton took advantage of the loophole.

"Everyone, I'll take a step first. After all, there will be a press conference later, and everyone can ask questions at that time." Anton nodded to the surroundings, and then left gracefully.

In the mixed interview area, Messi was surrounded by reporters.

"What do you think of today's game?"

"The intensity of the Premier League game is really high! It's hard work to play the whole game!" Messi said to the media solemnly.This is the first time he has played a full game for Sunderland.The reporters all looked strange: Except for the first goal, you played the big health almost the whole time. Is it hard?

Anton walked by, almost laughing.Messi's "hard work" of course ordinary journalists do not understand.But as long as he is on the field, Arsenal is equivalent to two less defensive players.

In addition, Messi's consumption is not all in physical fitness. It is estimated that the player who burned the most brain cells in the whole game belongs to him. After all, the false nine position is not easy to play.Some reporters can only see Messi's "big health care", but can't see his instantaneous burst of energy-if other players are required to maintain the rhythm of Messi's sudden exertion, it is estimated that they will not be able to last for most of the game.

Anton dropped Messi and let him deal with the media alone. Anyway, if he encountered a question that he couldn't answer, Messi would suddenly switch to Spanish and answer indiscriminately.

Of course Royce was stopped.When Anton passed by Royce, he heard him answering the question "how to celebrate".As a result, this naive and simple boy replied happily: "The coach said that after this game, the whole team will be arranged to 'kill chickens'. We will go to 'kill chickens' in a while."

The reporters were all dumbfounded, and the dim candlelight of the Thai-style clubhouse, the faint scent of sandalwood, and the soft and mysterious music appeared in their minds.It's kind of special to celebrate victory together by "killing chickens with horses".

Anton couldn't help but smirked: You will all know how powerful it is later.

Seeing Anton go out, Messi and the others quickly followed, for fear of missing the opportunity to "kill the chicken".The reporters had no interviewees, so they could only turn to Arsenal together.

Professor Wenger's answer has always been sophisticated: "Our performance today has been very good. It is undeniable that Sunderland is even better... We have done our best in 90 minutes. It is a pity to be lore in 93 minutes... You said Song? I don't understand what you're talking about... Oh no, I didn't see what you said, so I can't answer..."

Poor professor, he can only deny three times when encountering sensitive issues.

When the reporters entered Sunderland's press conference, they suddenly found that they had been fooled.Because the one sitting on the stage is not the head coach Anton, but the team's assistant coach Russell.

"Where's Anton?"

"Anton is probably 'killing a chicken', and I'll answer questions on his behalf." Russell's expression was very serious, and he didn't seem to be joking at all.

"It hurts, it hurts, it hurts!"

"hiss--"

"Ah, ah, ah, take it easy, please take it easy..."

There were cries of pain everywhere, and everyone yelled loudly, as if they were really at the scene of "killing chickens".

Anton's clear voice sounded: "Everyone bear with it and try to relax your whole body, so that your muscles can relax as soon as possible. This is an important means to restore physical fitness and avoid injuries..."

This is a professional masseuse he has been looking for for a long time. He can use the most professional techniques to complete the body relaxation of the players after the game in the first time, and find some hidden dangers. He will inform the coaching staff as soon as possible, so that the coaching staff can know what they are doing. Make targeted arrangements in the next training and competition.

"You are not afraid of such a fierce confrontation on the field. Why do these beneficial massages make you all cry?"

When Anton said this, the cries of pain immediately decreased a little, and Pickford, a foolish boy when he was young, said, "Hey, why does it seem to be quite comfortable?"

After the initial pain passed, the players really began to feel the warmth and comfort of their limbs, and their tense bodies had completely relaxed.The techniques of these professional masseurs do seem to work.

"Okay, if you still feel pain, tell your masseur quickly, and they will check your limbs for potential sports injuries." Anton said.

It turned out to be for this purpose!It's really a strange "horse killing chicken".

"Coach, can these buddies stay in Sunderland for a long time? Maybe we will often need to 'celebrate' like this?" Pickford asked again.

Other players: Good guy, it’s really hard to remember if you don’t say it. This is still a kind of "celebration".

Anton gave an affirmative answer: "Yes, some of them happen to have a cooperative exchange program with the sports science major of the University of Sunderland. Apart from staying in Sunderland for a while, they will also come from Sunderland again. Universities produce local talent. Don't you, Mr. McCain?"

The person who was asked answered Anton in very fluent American English.

At this time, a few players who didn't get to play in this game sat bored and watched their teammates being "killed by horses".Colback is holding a crushed sports drink bottle in his hand. He is reaching out and gesticulating to hold the drink bottle—the drink bottle was indeed crushed by someone. The drink bottle just fits the shape of the right hand.

"God--"

Colback quietly passed the drink bottle on, and others tried it.There is even a good thing to get a beverage bottle that is exactly the same as this one, and try to squeeze it. It is hard plastic, not a can, how can it be squeezed with one hand?

Fortunately, he didn't really offend the coach at the time—the red-haired kid secretly stuck out his tongue when he remembered how he met Anton back then.

Anton didn't realize that his "masterpiece" was being passed around.He was discussing Royce's situation with McCain.

Royce was lying on his back as Mr McCain examined the area of ​​his chest where he had been kicked. "There is nothing serious, and there is no need to rest—boy, do you like strength training very much? Continue to strength train your upper body. A strong body will keep you away from injuries."

Royce said to Anton: "Coach, today's player...Song, he really stopped his foot. If he lost his foot, I guess I wouldn't be able to continue the game, and I wouldn't be able to score the next two goals. If... ..."

After all, he was a kind-hearted young man. He had heard that the FA might punish Alexander Song earlier, and he had kept this matter in mind, and now he finally brought it up to Anton.

Without needing Royce to finish speaking, Anton nodded: "I understand what you mean. If the FA continues to investigate that matter, I will express this on your behalf."

As for the provocation that Alexander Song kicked the bottle later, Anton's "squeeze the water bottle with bare hands" is enough to make this guy never dare to provoke others in this way in the future—the perpetrator has already learned a lesson in public, Anton Seeing clearly at the time, Song was so frightened that his face turned blue.

Royce was relieved and lay back on the physiotherapy chair safely.

At this time, Anton finally said the real way of "celebration": "Everyone, next Wednesday happens to be a traditional Chinese festival, the Mid-Autumn Festival. Since that day is not a game day, we will hold a dinner party to celebrate this day." Good start to the season."

But when this sentence was thrown out, there was not even a little splash.The players all looked at Anton eagerly: the head coach...then what...

"Mother Qiao has already nodded, so at the dinner party, you can eat a lot of delicacies other than the regular recipes."

"yeah!"

The players were all waiting for this sentence, and at this moment they all cheered: I can finally eat the food arranged by the head coach, this is the real celebration!

The author has something to say: Happy weekend everyone!
