Chapter 37 The Confrontation with Journalists
Looking at the crazy celebration of the opposing players on the court, the expression on Frankfurt's head coach's face was very complicated, such as loss, unwillingness, distress, injustice and so on. In short, he felt very bad!
Throughout the past 20 rounds of the league, the situation in Frankfurt is really not very good. Due to his poor record, head coach Laiman has always been at the forefront of the end of the class. At the beginning of the season, Jones in Frankfurt was regarded as a new star in German football, but the performance of this new star was really unsatisfactory and he was injured repeatedly like a glass man. As a result, he still relied on the team's veteran to score goals.
In this case, as the head coach of a promoted horse, the pressure of Laiman can be imagined.
Before the game, Raiman carefully studied the tactics, personnel and other information of Schalke 04. He felt that he had understood it in detail and arranged the tactical response accordingly. In Ryman's view, if Schalke 04 can perform well, then the team's shrinking defense, anyway, Schalke 04's front line is not strong, which is also the reason why Schalke 04 failed to enter the first group of the Bundesliga.
The whole game is under the control of Ryman. Just as he thought, even if Schalke 04 performs well, it is difficult to break Frankfurt's goal. And surprisingly, Frankfurt also performed very well, which made Lai Man feel more at ease. Although there is no goal, one point is acceptable. Now Frankfurt ranks second to last in the league. With this point, the team is likely to advance.
But where did this new kid come from?
When Don Jack first came on the field, Raiman even thought he had won. Because Don Jack's performance is very poor, it can almost be said that he can't keep up with the rhythm of Schalke 04. It has no effect on the court. Raiman, who is already a little confident, has become more confident. During the game, he is even in the mood to talk to the assistant coach about post-match things.
My heart doesn't follow my wishes!
Although Raiman did not pay much attention to Don Jack, then Don Jack's performance became better and better. Even ordinary fans think that as the head coach of Frankfurt, how can he not see it?
Even so, Laiman is still a little confident. After all, he doesn't care about his good performance and scoring goals, but Laiman never thought that at the last minute of the game, the new boy broke Frankfurt's goal. Everyone knows what it means. Even if Laiman doesn't want to accept it, Frankfurt is sure I lost the game.
"Who the hell is this guy? How can there be such a player in Schalke 04?" Lai Man is about to die.
But now is not the time to think about this. Laiman is thinking about how to explain after the game. If he loses the game, the situation in Frankfurt will be even more critical. He also needs to think about how to deal with the pressure from the top of the club.
............
At the same time, Don Jack, who was excited on the court, had long been the focus of the whole game. All his teammates came to congratulate him on his first goal. Even the head coach Heinx couldn't help coming to the sidelines and praised his performance.
This final goal has completely determined the result of the game.
Heinx smiled like a flower on his face. He was worried about the whole game, and even gave up the game himself, but now he has won the final victory, which really makes him so happy.
What's more gratifying is that the key to victory is your replacement! A newcomer from the Schalke 04 youth team!
"My Heinx's vision is really excellent!" He said beautifully in his heart.
Now, he has begun to imagine how to ridicule the annoying Lyman after the game. For the reason that the game did not change, after celebrating on the sidelines for a while, Heinx urged the players to return to the court to continue the game and wait until the game is over.
After, the two teams returned to the court and waited for the game to start again.
It is said to start again, but the whole game, including all the fans, know that it is just a form. The referee has three minutes of stoppage time, and when Don Jack scored, it is already the end of the second minute of stoppage time. When the celebration is over, three minutes of stoppage time will pass, and the game will start again. Probably the referee will only give France. Kefu is just a symbolic offensive opportunity. If there is any out-of-bounds ball or something, the game is over.
In the case of all the defense of Schalke 04, how can Frankfurt have a little chance?
Sure enough, when Frankfurt kicked off, before the two-footed ball was passed, the referee blew the whistle at the end of the game, and the long 'beep...' The whistle sounds extremely harsh, but in the ears of Schalke 04 players, it seems to be a natural sound.
The game is over.
At this time, the players of the two teams returned to the locker room one after another. The difference was that the Frankfurt players were all sad and frustrated. Anyway, there was no good mood, and each player in Schalke 04 had a smile on his face. Because they won, Don Jack walked and was surrounded by everyone. Many teams You began to make fun of him.
"Jack, how does it feel to score a goal in the Bundesliga?"
"Haha, Jack, there will definitely be no girl fans who will like you tomorrow. The beauty of Gelsenkirxing is very delicious. You should cherish it more."
"Well done! I said that Jack can do it. Whoever says he can't do it, I'm worried about who!"
......
In a word, a group of old men said everything. Unfortunately, Don Jack's German level is not good. So many people have been talking. Don Jack only knows that he has been smiling and nodding, but most of them can't understand it. He can only look at the expressions of his teammates and a few German words to guess what they are saying.
After returning to the locker room, the enthusiasm for celebration was less. After all, it was Frankfurt rather than Schalke 04. They had to take a bus back to Gelsenkirchenge for a while. Everyone was very happy, but they would not be so excited about victory all the time.
Only Asamoa is an exception.
This extremely 'ungly' black man is a native German, and his skills are the team's main winger. His position is unshakable. Asamoa, who has no external pressure, is very active in the team. Now he is discussing with Don Jack how to celebrate the victory after returning to Gelsenkirxing.
"Jack, let's go party together in the evening! I know a hotel where the nightlife is very good. There are beautiful women, wine, food, everything!" Asamoa tried to express his meaning with concise words, and gestured with his hands, so that Don Jack could understand.
Unfortunately, his performance was not successful.
The big mouth matched the action expression. If it hadn't been for knowing that this guy was a human, Don Jack would have thought that the 'monster' in front of him was going to eat himself.
Fortunately, Jack Don understood: "You said you were going to celebrate? Celebrate the victory?"
Asamoa nodded to make Jack Tang understand his words. He seemed to feel very fulfilled: "Yes, it's a celebration of victory. Back to Gelsenkirxing, I think many people will go, such as Ebe, Christian and so on, and of course, little Hank. He will be indispensable at any time.
Asamoa's words made Don Jack very active and can celebrate the victory with his teammates, which can also increase the interpersonal relationship in the team. And... The important thing is that Don Jack feels that he has been living an ascetic life, and occasionally he should indulge. After all, this is a world of enjoyment.
While Asamoa was patiently waiting for Don Jack's answer, Don Jack asked a question that stunned the whole team: "Is it Mr. Heinx's treat?"
After saying this, Don Jack felt the silence in the whole dressing room, and all his teammates looked at him with inexplicable eyes.
Jack Don frowned doubtfully, turned to everyone and said, "After the victory of the game, shouldn't we celebrate together with the club's treat? I think all our expenses should be paid by the club, which is the past, and the head coach is the representative of the club, so of course the head coach pays for it.
"Because he can reimburse the club..."
After saying that, Jack Don felt more and more that his words were reasonable, but at this time, the locker room was still quiet. He inexplicably found that the eyes of these teammates were all looking behind him.
"It's murderous!"
Don Jack reacted and turned around directly. He saw the door of the locker room. The head coach Heinx stared at him, and the expression on his face could not tell what it was like... It seems to be thinking?
Jack Don is upset. These words should be discussed with his teammates in private, but they should not be heard by the head coach. Otherwise, it would be bad if he would pass small shoes behind his back. He regretted it very much. Why did he say so... The main reason is that my contract is too bad, but there is no more euros to waste. It takes a lot of money to go to the hotel for one night.
At this time, everyone in the locker room looked at Jack Don, with some gloating in their eyes, because everyone knows that coach Heinx's stingyness is famous in the club, and it is impossible for this stingy to treat him.
"What Jack said makes sense. Let me think about it... Well, let's play together tonight. I'll pay all the expenses, but remember to drink less wine. Next, Heinx said so.
The locker room is silent.
Everyone looked at Heinx in disbelief, because in their impression, the coach was very stingy. Before they could think about anything, they saw Heinx staring at Asamoa angrily and walked straight out of the locker room.
Everyone felt puzzled.
Don Jack and Asamoa are even more inexplicable, because if Heinx is angry, he must be angry with Don Jack. How can he stare at Asamoa?
It's really inexplicable.
Of course, it feels inexplicable in the game, but in fact, Heinx's treat is just for his face. Don Jack said in front of so many people that he should treat. How can Heinx not treat? In addition, the sentence 'maybe club reimbursement' said by Don Jack is very useful. The club spends its own treat. Why not?
However, Heinx still felt very unhappy when he was calculated by a player!
He shifted all the responsibility to Asamoa. Although everything was said by Don Jack, Heinx felt that a little guy who didn't even speak German fluently had the courage to say such a thing in front of him. It must have been encouraged by someone behind him!
In the club, I think it is the most active Asamoa!
Unfortunately, Asamoa didn't know that there was a wronged Dou E in faraway China, otherwise he would definitely say, "I'm more wronged than Dou E!"
Of course, these don't matter. It's certain that Heinx invited everyone to the hotel for a carnival.
Everyone is very grateful to Jack Don. For these professional players, the euro is not a problem, but more importantly, it is a very cool thing to let the 'stingy coach' treat. So, when Heinx left, everyone kept extending their thumbs to Don Jack and began to focus on what to eat at night, who has a bigger appetite and so on... The miser coach's treat is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you don't really open your appetite and have a big meal, how can you be worthy of this hard-won opportunity?
Heinx, who just left, doesn't know that now all the players are calculating him... The wallet.
After walking out of the locker room, Heinx attended the press conference. He knew that those damn reporters must be interested in the new team who scored a goal, but Heinx still didn't take Don Jack with him. Like old Schindler, he thought that he should adapt to protecting the team's newcomers and let them have less contact with the media. OK.
Of course, the reporters were not satisfied with the appearance of Don Jack.
So, they targeted the failed Frankfurt head coach Laiman, hoping to get some news in the name of 'mockery'.
"We won the scene but lost the game!"
"We performed well, but our opponent is too cunning!" Speaking of this, Raiman took a look at Heinx next to him and said hatefully, "In order to win, they actually hid a striker, Don Jack. Li, I didn't know the name at all before the game. I think other Bundesliga teams should be vigilant!"
This obviously can't satisfy the reporters, because they all know that this is the boy's debut. Such a boy who scored a final goal in the debut can be said to have a promising future. They hope to learn more information, instead of putting the responsibility for losing the opponent like Laiman.
"His performance is very good, which poses a danger to Frankfurt's backfield. I should congratulate Heinx for getting a good striker. I have always felt that Schalke 04's No. 26 player (Mike. Hank) is very suitable for Frankfurt. They (Schalke 04) are really good at training strikers. Speaking of this, Raiman's tone is even a little sour.
All reporters are very sympathetic and envious of Heinx.
Before the start of this season, Schalke 04 was on a summer transfer. Due to financial constraints, they wanted to buy a striker, but they got nothing, so that now the team's main and first striker is still the veteran Dane Abe. Sander, in the case of a serious shortage of people in the front line of the first team, Heinx took Mike. Hank was promoted from the youth team to the first team as a supplement.
Although Hank's performance is not surprising, as a young player, it is already very good to be a qualified bench player of the team in the first two seasons of the Bundesliga. It can be said that this kind of player has a bright future.
Now, the Schalke 04 youth team has promoted a newcomer, who is also a striker, and scored a goal in his debut.
"God really cares about them..."
Of course, the focus of the press conference will not always be Schalke 04, nor will it always be Don Jack. After answering some questions, Raiman began to complain about the problems within the team. He openly accused two players in the team: striker Jermaine. Jones and Congolese defender Jane. Crotel. Tesomo. Madessa.
"During the training, he failed to complete my three laps of running in the forest. There was an action that I needed him to complete in 30 minutes, but he left after 5 minutes." Head coach Raiman said of Jones, "He didn't pay attention to some of my tactical consciousness. I don't know if he went to bed so late that he was still taking a nap on the training ground. His attitude was very inactive. I don't know if he is starting to take Leverkusen's salary now.
Jones, 21 years old, has become a well-known star in Frankfurt after three seasons in Frankfurt. Last season, he played 17 games in the Second Division for Frankfurt and scored 6 goals as a striker. At the same time, as a player of the German national team under the age of 21, Jones made five appearances and scored three goals. This summer, he signed Leverkusen and will officially transfer to Leverkusen next season.
When talking about Congolese, Lai Man satirized: "The way he plays football makes me feel very uncomfortable. The constant running route is nothing new in midfield defense. I hope she doesn't waste too much time on the court.
In this case, it is obvious that Laiman is making excuses for losing.
Regardless of whether the loss is due to Schalke 04's goal or not, Frankfurt has an advantage most of the time in the game, and they did not score a goal, but it is a fact that there are more reasons for losing.
............
After the press conference, most reporters were not very satisfied, especially those local reporters in Gelsenkirxing. They were eager to get some information about Don Jack, but because of Heinx's 'care', they got nothing.
The unwilling reporters made trouble for the security of the stadium at the bus stop.
When the Schalke 04 player came out of the locker room and got on the bus led by the assistant coach, a group of reporters rushed across the interception line and wanted to interview these Schalke 04 players up close.
Obviously, this is premeditated.
So, before the stadium security guard could react, they rushed to the Schalke 04 bus and stopped many players. Don Jack was also among them. He was surrounded by a group of reporters.
This is the first time he has encountered this situation, and he is a little excited and nervous.
After stopping Don Jack, these reporters took the money camera, like film for free, and pressed the shutter continuously. Many reporters put the microphone on Don Jack's mouth and began to ask questions---
"Li, your performance is really good. Is this really the first formal professional game you participated in?"
"When did you join Schalke 04? According to the information, you are from the Schalke 04 youth team. Can you talk about your experience?
"Are you a Moroccan? Li, can you tell me why you are a Moroccan? Your appearance should obviously be your brother, Korean, Japanese or Chinese..."
"The first appearance helped the team score a goal, and it was a final goal. How do you feel?"
"Excuse me, how did you join Schalke 04?"
"Do you have an economist who can tell you how much your salary is? Have you considered a transfer? Stuttgart will be a good choice!"
......
All kinds of questions are thinking about Jack Don.
Unfortunately, they ignored a problem: Don Jack's German is not good.
Don't say that these reporters keep asking questions together. Even if you are just a reporter, if you want Jack Don to understand in German, you can only speak slowly one word at a time, so that Jack Don can understand.
Don Jack wants to be interviewed, because it will greatly increase his reputation and he can fight for better treatment with the club, but the current situation... Don Jack shook his head helplessly. After holding two 'POSS' that he thought was good for the reporter to shoot, he pushed away the reporter who stopped him and went straight to the bus.
"God, he is so strong."
A reporter who had just been unfortunately pushed down breathlessly said to his colleagues, "This guy must be a strong man. I said how could he easily hit the Frankfurt guard? So it is."
No one was angry on his face, but excited, because it was really a good theme---
"Hercules came to Schalke 04, scored violently in his debut, blood-stained Wald!" Many journalists have even figured out tomorrow's headline!
