Chapter 56 In-team Penalty

The game was three minutes in stoppage time. These three minutes were like three days, three months and three years for the players of Gosho. They blocked the shots of Atletico Madrid like a gun. When the whistle at the end of the last game sounded, they lay on the grass as if they were out of collapse. I don't want to move on the ground.

1:5, this is the final score of this game, and Gosho once again advanced with an away goal.

Lin Fenglei was the first to walk back to the locker room with a green face. Kaquetas and other coaches quickly pulled the players up from the grass one by one and pulled them back to the locker room.

When all the players walked into the locker room, they saw Lin Fenglei standing in the locker room with a sunken face, and immediately stood in front of Lin Fenglei at a loss.

Lin Fenglei looked at them and laughed. He applauded: "Gentlemen, why are they all like this? Didn't we advance? I should congratulate you!"

Avanzini said, "Head, don't do this. I know we didn't play well in this game. We were wrong. Please punish us. No matter how we punish, we will be convinced."

Other players also admitted their mistakes and let Lin Fenglei punish themselves.

Lin Fenglei stopped applauding, and his face sank: "Are you wrong? Do you know where you are wrong?

The players lowered their heads one by one, and Lin Fenglei continued: "In fact, it's not only you who are wrong, but all of us, including myself, are wrong. Don't you think our season is going well? Continuous victories make us arrogant, make us lose ourselves, and make us think that we are invincible from now on. This failure came at the right time. To be from the bottom of my heart, when I lost the fifth goal just now, I couldn't wait for Atletico Madrid to score another goal, simply eliminated us, and poured cold water on our hot heads. This painful failure is enough to make us wake up and remember it forever. We will never make such a mistake again!"

Avazzini raised his head and looked at Lin Fenglei with firm eyes and said, "Head, we will always remember this game. We will never make such a mistake again!"

Lin Fenglei said, "Yes, we should remember it. How long has it been since we suffered such a painful failure? We should also be glad that Atletico Madrid failed to score another goal, otherwise we would become the laughingstock of the whole Europe, which will be the stain of our life! You all asked me to punish you, so I now announce my penalty decision. All the players who played today are suspended for two games in the team and withhold two weeks' salary. Do you accept this penalty decision?

All the players raised their heads and said with one voice, "Head, we accept it!"

Lin Fenglei smiled and said, "Of course, you still have a chance to get back those two weeks' salary."

The players immediately looked at Lin Fenglei one by one, and wanted to hear how to get the salary deducted. After all, they still live on the salary. Although the deduction of salary is a punishment for poor performance, isn't it better to get it back?

Lin Fenglei said slowly, "If you win the League Cup this season, I will not only pay the bonus in full according to the agreed bonus amount, but also give you the two-week salary deducted."

The players cheered one by one, and their hearts were full of fighting spirit again.

After the game, the Swiss media collectively sang a hymn to Gosho's promotion. However, due to Gosho's disgraceful collapse in the second half, this kind of hymn was reserved. This is a contradictory emotion, but this is exactly the meaning of Lin Fenglei. Gosho's young players need some setbacks to let them grow up and blindly praise them. The growth is unfavorable. At the same time, he also lamented that although Gosho's young players are full of talent, they are really lacking in experience. If there are Kabbanas and Kufre in the away game of Atletico Madrid, Gosho will not collapse in any case.

On April 8, Gosau played against Zurich, the second-ranked team in the league, at home. If Gosau can win this game, he will lead Zurich by 10 points, which will basically lock the championship of the Swiss Super League this season. If Zurich wins, the point gap between the two teams will be narrowed to 4 points, and the championship situation will be renewed. It became full of suspense. There is no doubt that this is a key game, and the media also hyped up this peak match before the game. However, on the day of the game, all the people who paid attention to the game were in an uproar, because the Gosho team sent all the substitutes. Due to the lack of people, they also transferred several players from the youth team. To make up the lineup and bench.

Live commentator Ralph is introducing the Gosho team's playing lineup. It can be seen that he is also unfamiliar with many players who play Gosho: "The Gosho team sent a lot of players who have never played before today. Their goalkeeper is Checarelli. This player has only played for Gosho once this season, right-back Kufre, left-back Chekaroni, is a player temporarily transferred from the youth team. The two central defenders are the combination of Pires and Sanchez. This is a brand-new combination. Sanchez's main position is left-back. Although he can also play central defender, we have never seen him play in the game of Gosho before. This position; Gosho sent two midfielders today, Kabanas and Meyer, which is also quite rare in their home game. They have always attacked at home; right winger Christen, left winger Sartre and front waistband Hodel are also two young players drawn from the youth team, Esposito. Then serve as a single striker. Gosau's bench are all young players drawn from the youth team. We have noticed that there is no player in Gosau's lineup and bench today when he played away against Atletico Madrid. It seems that Coach Lin Fenglei is very dissatisfied with the performance of the Gosho team in that game, but this game is a key battle for the league championship. Isn't Coach Lin Fenglei afraid of losing this game?

To everyone's surprise, such a temporary set of lineup put together by the Gosho team resisted the fierce attack after the opening of Zurich under the command of captain Kavanas, and in the 36th minute, the attack was instigated by Cavanas after the ball was cut off in the backcourt. The young front midfielder Hodel made an accurate direct pass, Espoo Sito succeeded in offside and opened the record for Gosau, leading Zurich 1-0. Ralph exclaimed, "Who is Hodel? It is estimated that the fans in front of the TV have never heard of this strange name, but such a player who makes everyone strange has such a beautiful straight plug in such a key game. The talent of the young players of Gosho is amazing. How many treasures are there in their youth team? I've asked this question before, but now I have to ask it again, because today the players drawn from the youth team on the field have played quite well.

Zurich, which counterattacked crazily after losing the ball, was finally equalized by Lewandowski in the 82nd minute of the second half. After equalizing the score, the Zurich players were as crazy as tying opponents like Real Madrid and Manchester United in an important final. It's because they were so excited that they thought it would be easy to win this game, but they didn't expect that although Gosho's young players were still very immature, the pressure on them was almost as strong as the young team and Basel.

In the end, the game ended with a 1:1 handshake between the two sides. Lin Fenglei is acceptable, but it is not an ideal score for Zurich. Now Gosho is still 7 points ahead of them, but the game is missing another round.

At the post-match press conference, a reporter asked Lin Fenglei that Gosho did not play against any of Atletico Madrid's players. Was it a penalty because he was dissatisfied with their performance? Lin Fenglei replied solemnly, "No, this is just a normal rotation. We are playing for the League Cup. Prepare for the final against Porto. The performance of the players? I'm very satisfied because we have been promoted!" The opponent of the semi-finals of the Gosho League Cup has come out. It is the Portuguese giant Porto team. Lin Fenglei is quite satisfied with this result, and he can't help but be dissatisfied, because the other group is AC Milan and Manchester United. Which of them is stronger than Porto. If he can draw Porto, he will have fun secretly.

Of course, journalists who are afraid that the world will not be in chaos will not be satisfied with such an answer. They still want to continue to ask questions, but Lin Fenglei is not leaking about this question. It is all this answer. In the end, they simply do not answer such a question, and the reporters give up. However, after the game, the major media still made all kinds of speculations about this unusual "rotation", but these speculations have nothing to do with Lin Fenglei. Anyway, he will not admit it.

On April 14, Gosau's league was held one day ahead of schedule. They challenged Basel away. This time, Lin Fenglei still sent the same lineup as the last round. Basel, the main force, was still unable to play. The two sides exchanged 0:0, while Zurich defeated Arau 3-0 at home and will be with Gosau. The gap between points has narrowed to 5 points, and there is still hope of reversing and winning the championship with five rounds left in the league.

At the post-match press conference, reporters asked why Lin Fenglei did not send a player against Madrid for two consecutive rounds. Lin Fenglei still replied solemnly, "Isn't this normal?" In four days, we will challenge Porto away. At this time, it is very important to maintain the physical strength of the main players, so we rotated.

The reporters had no choice but to accept Lin Fenglei's statement again.
