Chapter 8 The First Battle of the Immigrant Cup
(Please collect red tickets and reward, all kinds of request)
Five minutes' walk from the train is the stadium of the Oriental Dragon. When Jiang Mu and Zhao Guangming came to the stadium, they found that there were one or two hundred fans miraculously outside the stadium. He heard that the Oriental Dragon team only had one or two hundred fans during the game. Without the game, only the relatives and friends of the players watched it. There was no game today, but there were so many fans, which surprised Jiang Mu.
Soon, Ke Liang solved Jiang Mu's doubts. He smiled and said, "Coach Jiang, they came to see you. Do you see the fans in red and white Alkmaar jerseys?"
Li Wei said, "Coach Jiang, the news that you drove William away yesterday has spread in Alkmaar. Many people want to see you, the mysterious oriental coach, especially the arrogant Dutchman."
Jiang Mu saw that many fans were pointing at him, smiled and said, "It's rare and strange. Don't pay attention to them. Just think that they are supporting us."
The players of the Oriental Dragons laughed when they saw Jiang Mu's ease.
In the following training, Jiang Mu did not do more training on physical fitness. It only took more than ten days. Now it is too late to reserve physical energy, and the physical strength of amateur teams is also very average. He mainly trains players to understand and apply new tactics. Although the third waist and winger inner cutting look very simple. However, football is a whole. It involves a lot of things involved. These amateur players can't all accept it. They often put on such a formation, but they still play according to the usual tactics in the group confrontation.
"What is this taught by the Chinese?"
"It's a joke for Chinese people to be coaches. It's a shame in China and Asia, and they come to the Netherlands."
"Can this kind of play win? It's uglier than the Italians."
"Just like them, they can't even beat Alkmaar's junior team."
This kind of non-nonsical style of play soon aroused the ridicule of the lively fans around them. In fact, they originally came to find faults, but a tall and ordinary-looking man among the fans was an exception. He did not make a fuss like everyone, but looked meaningfully at Jiang Mu. Deal with this kind of problem.
"If you don't like it, get out of here."
"Who let you watch it? Alkmaar played well. You can go to watch their game. Why are you here to make trouble?"
The players of the Oriental Dragon began to be very excited to see so many fans. Now the new tactics can't be mastered, and they are ridicatured by these boring fans, and they can't help but quarrel with the fans.
Jiang Mu gathered the players seriously and said, "Although we are amateur players, we are players on the court. They are fans. No matter who they are fans, we must tolerate their criticism. I hope everyone will have confidence in themselves and don't care about what looks good or not, I said. After that, we don't play beautiful football, we play victory football. All right, let's continue to train.
After training the players, Jiang Mu arched his hand to the fans around him and said, "Thank you for your support, but I don't want you to affect our training. We are an amateur team, and our ability to resist interference is not strong. I hope you can give them a good atmosphere. In addition, football is not dancing. Who plays football well can only be known by a comparison on the court. Whether he is an amateur or a professional, if we are lucky enough to meet Alkmaar in the FA Cup, I will let you know whose football is better.
What Jiang Mu said was very plain, and there was no smoke, but it seemed that he was full of confidence in his football. The players of the Oriental Dragon Club couldn't help applauding. For them, such a counterattack was really cool.
In the eyes of Alkmaar's fans, Jiang Mu was arrogant and arrogant. They were angered and did not satirize the players, but attacked Jiang Mu with more fierce words.
"It's up to you, you still want to win Alkmaar, dream."
"If you don't pour your ten balls, you are the arrogant Chinese who burn high incense."
......
Jiang Mu sat on the sidelines with his eyes half-closed lazily and teased these fans from time to time, as if he was not thinking about training at all, but as long as any player made a mistake in training, he would immediately point it out. It seemed that Jiang Mu seemed to be able to watch the six ways and listen to the eight directions. It makes the players extremely surprised and scared, and no one dares to be careless.
The fans around him were also shocked by Jiang Mu's genius. The sarcasm gradually disappeared, and they began to curiously inquire about the origin of this young and mysterious oriental coach, and the ordinary middle-aged man in front of him also turned his back to the court, took out a small notebook, and wrote down what had just happened and his own opinions. .
In fact, Jiang Mu's ability to observe each player's movements is not his own credit. What works is Chang'e-1. Chang'e-1 is equipped with audio-visual and video functions, which can distinguish natural language, and can make vague judgments thinking and similar to human beings. He closely monitors each player's training, which ball If something is abnormal, Chang'e No. 1 will take the initiative to tell Jiang Mu, because Chang'e No. 1 and Jiang Mu communicate with brain waves. In the eyes of everyone, Jiang Mu becomes as magical as God.
Zhao Guangming has just been trying to send text messages. At this time, he also found the strangeness of Jiang Mu and said, "Wood, after a serious illness, your boy has become so strange. Is it because of misfortune that an intelligent area in his brain has been opened?"
"Go to hell, I've always been like this. You don't know Mount Tai." Jiang Mu waved his hand.
"You don't even have a daughter. You just want to be my Mount Tai." Zhao Guangming said with a smile.
"Get out of here."
Jiang Mu kicked Zhao Guangming's leg, but Zhao Guangming, who had been prepared for a long time, dodged with a smile.
More than ten days passed in a flash. Jiang Mu found a job as a tour guide in a travel company. He led the team for training every Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday afternoons. Although the amateur players of Oriental Dragons had some new tactics that rejected Jiang Mu at the beginning, they were amateur players and did not accept the formal system. The training is faster than that of professional players, but in half a month, they can play well.
The competition of the Immigration Cup starts from June 21st. There are 16 teams participating in the competition method as the World Cup. First, they are divided into four groups for group matches. The top two of the group enter the knockout stage. Finally, the winner is decided. In addition to the honor of winning the championship, the champion will also get a computer and Holland for free. Training funds for Lanyu.
The Chinese team was lucky and was divided into Group C, avoiding the powerful Turkey team, Suriname, Germany, and Morocco, South Korea and Poland.
The match was held on the football field in the famous Balboa Square in the west of Amsterdam. This football field is the cradle of Dutch stars in the 1990s. There are a large number of outstanding people such as Rijkard, Gulet, Winter, Rezger, Sidorf, Davis and Cruyvit. The stars have quickly become famous here and eventually entered the professional club. Many scouts come to this square every Saturday and every Wednesday afternoon, because there will also be amateur leagues here in the afternoons. Many talented children and teenagers who participate in it are the dreams of scouts.
The opponent of the first game of the Chinese team was the Polish team. On the second game day, the travel company did not rest on Saturday and Sunday. Jiang Mu asked for leave with his boss in the morning, hurriedly ate something, and came to Balboa Square with Zhao Guangming.
More than an hour before the game, the football field is already surrounded by people, including Polish and Chinese fans, as well as Dutch fans, and many tourists passing by here.
"Chinese people don't play football, too?"
"There is no suspense in the game. We, Poland, will win."
"The Chinese team will win if they lose a few fewer goals."
Fans waiting to watch the game are talking a lot. No one is optimistic about the Chinese team. Whether it is from the Chinese team's record in the Immigration Cup or the reputation of Chinese football, these fans do not pay attention to the Chinese team, and Chinese fans do not have much confidence in their own team, even if one or two fans have no confidence. If you refute two sentences, you will also suffer greater ridicule.
The players of the Chinese team came an hour earlier, while the Polish team didn't even have a single figure. Jiang Mu took the players to do 20 minutes of warm-up exercises on the court, and then carried out simple passing and circle training.
The Chinese team's skills are not bad. They are at the middle level of amateurs. When training, they can also attract the applause of many onlookers. It's just that Chinese players have poor health and consciousness. As soon as they arrive at the game, they can't play their skills.
Thirty minutes before the game, the Polish team came to the stadium with an official and referee of the Dutch Football Association. The coach of the Polish team, Votovic, is a middle-aged man with a big belly and the chairman of the Polish immigration team. He does not pay attention to the Chinese team. Although Polish football is not They are second-rate in Europe, but their technical body and consciousness cannot be compared with Chinese players. Even amateur football is the same. In addition to China and North Korea, football in other countries is supported by the huge football crowd below. At the amateur football level, foreign players are stronger than Chinese players.
The players of the Chinese team are training seriously on the court, while the players of the Polish team are very relaxed, almost like playing street football. They didn't prepare for the game for too long, so they started the game directly.
Polish team coach Vottovic heard the joke that Jiang Mu was rejected by dozens of Dutch clubs. Seeing that Jiang Mu was so young, he didn't pay much attention to him. When the two shook hands before the game, Vottovic actually turned his head to talk to his players, which was extremely disrespectful to Jiang Mu.
However, Jiang Mu didn't care. He just curled his lips and returned to his position. He didn't want to be strong verbally, because he had observed the Poles's game and knew their level. He believed that his team would soon teach the arrogant Poles a lifelong lesson that they would never forget.
