Fox in the Penalty Area

In the locker room of the visiting team, the Flash Star players all lowered their heads and were depressed.

Especially Li Tielin, the captain of the team, sat on his own chair and covered his head with a towel to prevent others from seeing his expression.

It wasn't until head coach Zhao Kangming came in and slapped his hands that he broke the disturbing silence in the locker room.

"Don't pay too much attention to the result of this game. We only lost two goals. Your performance is already very good. I'm not trying to comfort you, I really think your performance is very good. After conceding the second goal Afterwards, I saw that you were flustered for a while on the court...but soon you all returned to normal, I am happy for your performance..."

Some coaches said this to satirize the performance of their players, but Zhao Kangming really only praised them when he said this.

To be honest, although Flash Star lost 0:2 in the away game, their performance is actually not bad. Otherwise it shouldn't just lose two goals.

And considering that one of the two conceded goals was an own goal, that is to say, it is possible for them to lose only one goal...

"So don't worry too much about the result of this game. We knew from the moment we came here that it is completely impossible to beat our opponents here. Fortunately, the final is two rounds, and we still have another chance. Going back to our home court, we are not incapable of fighting them... The key is whether you want to win or not?"

he asked his players.

For a while, no one answered in the locker room.

Everyone is asking the same question in their own mind and trying to find the answer.

Want to win?

Who doesn't want to win?

But some words are easy to say, but difficult to do.

can we win

What do we have to do to win?

As if knowing what the players were thinking, Zhao Kangming said again: "You don't need to think about how to win, you just need to tell me... Do you want to win? Li Tielin!"

He suddenly called the captain's name.

Li Tielin raised his head in a panic, and looked at his head coach through the shadow under the towel.

"Tear off the white towel from your head, and show it to someone in sackcloth and mourning!" Zhao Kangming said sternly. "Let me ask you, do you want to win?"

Li Tielin grabbed the towel: "I want to win, Director Zhao, I want to win!"

"Very good. Qin Lin!" Zhao Kangming clicked on the name of the boss in the locker room again.

Qin Lin sat in his seat, with a calm expression and a flat tone: "No one enters the final for the runner-up, Director Zhao. I also want to win, regardless of whether I can win or not."

Director Zhao looked at Hu Lai again, this time before he could roll his name, Hu Lai smiled obsequiously and said, "Director Zhao, you know me..." Then he took a deep breath, and shouted out with all his strength : "I want to win the championship!!!"

Wang Guangwei who was next to him was caught off guard by him, shivered in fright, and then covered his ears with his hands.

Seeing this, Hu Lai quickly pointed at him and said, "Director Zhao, look, Old Wang doesn't want to win!"

Wang Guangwei became impatient: "Who the hell said I don't want to win! I want to win too!"

"The voice is too low, I can't hear it!" Hu Lai suddenly transformed into an assistant coach Chen Mo, "Speaking so quietly, you still want to win the championship?! Do it again!"

Everyone laughed, even Zhao Kangming couldn't help laughing.

In the middle of the laughter, Wang Guangwei gritted his teeth and roared, "Report to Director Zhao, I want to win! I want to win! I! Want to! Win!!!"

Seeing the excitement of the two young people, which also infected other people around him, Chen Xingyi simply stood up from his seat, raised his chest and said loudly: "I want to win more than anyone else, Director Zhao! I want to prove to Jin Arrow Look!"

After he finished speaking, without Zhao Kangming continuing to read, Zhang Qinghuan standing next to him took the initiative to stand up and said, "I want to win too.

Director Zhao, I want to win the FA Cup! "

Just like that one by one, all the flash star players in the locker room stood up and answered Zhao Kangming's questions with great energy.

They all want to win!

Even if they knew their opponents were strong and beat them 2:0 in the first round, they still wanted to win.

Because the idea of ​​wanting to win the championship is the instinct of a professional player, and this instinct has nothing to do with the difference in strength.

But this is not the case for everyone. Some people will inevitably have the psychology of surrender after encountering setbacks.

Therefore, Zhao Kangming needs to confirm whether everyone's beliefs are firm and whether their ideas are consistent.

It's like the FA Cup semi-final.

Only this time, he didn't rely on the tacit understanding between the two parties, but had to confirm this to everyone.

Now he has an answer.

"Very good!" Zhao Kangming was unconsciously affected by the atmosphere in the locker room, and his voice increased accordingly. "I see! Now that we have the same goal, things will be easier to handle. It is the coaching staff's job to figure out how to win, and it is your job to implement the idea... Generally speaking, the preparation for a game It started a week before the game. Now, our preparations for the second round of the final start from the new press conference after the game!"

At the post-match press conference, Zhao Kangming expressed to the reporters that he was convinced by the loss:

"The Dashun Golden Arrow is indeed very strong. We have tried our best in the game... But everyone has seen the result. I will not criticize the players, because they all performed at their best. Losing the game is completely Because our overall strength is not as good as our opponents, this result is normal and fair. Next, I will forget the FA Cup and concentrate on playing well in the league. For us, ensuring promotion is the ultimate goal of this season... Yes, I know There is still a second round in the final, but it is meaningless to talk about the second round in front of the score of 0:2. It is already a dream performance for us to reach the final... We are a Chinese team, and Dashun Golden Arrows are ranked At the forefront of the Chinese Super League..."

Facing the camera, when Zhao Kangming said these words, his eyes were very sincere.

※※※

"...In the first round of the just-concluded FA Cup final, the Shining Star lost 0:2 to Dashun Golden Arrow in the away game... This result is not unexpected, and it can even be said that this score cannot fully reflect the two teams. The strength gap between the teams..."

"Flash Star was very tenacious in the game, but despite this, they conceded two goals, one of which was an own goal... It is said that Dashun Golden Arrows head coach Wang Xianke was still dissatisfied with the team's performance after returning to the locker room, Thinking that only two goals were scored and the task was not completed...Although it is just a rumor, the reporter tends to believe this statement. Because before the game, everyone believed that for the Golden Arrow, the best result of this game is to use one game to end the two goals. The suspense of winning the championship round. In this way, Dashun Golden Arrow can go all out in the next Chinese Super League and compete with the South China Tigers for the Chinese Super League championship..."

"Flash Star coach Zhao Kangming admitted defeat after the game, thinking that the team's next focus is to upgrade... I think his brain has finally come to his senses. He put personal grievances ahead of the fundamental interests of the team before. In the FA Cup The forced rotation before the semi-finals caused the team to lose to the Heihe Jixing in the away game... Looking back now, if there is no failure in that game, the Flash Star will lead the Nanhai team by 7 points and Ning Tianyongan by 10 points. As long as they win again You can be promoted in advance in one game, so why make the fans of Shining Star wait and worry?"

"I declare in advance that I am not a fan of Flash Star. I just think that Zhao Kangming was a little swollen before. It is good to be woken up by the Dashun Golden Arrow. A Chinese Super League team dared to play without promotion. The owner of the Shining Star Club is really tolerant. If I were the boss, Zhao Kangming would have to leave get out of class. It’s so selfish to do so! But it’s a good thing they lost to Dashun Golden Arrow in the away game, otherwise If so, I think Zhao Kangming may have to go all the way in the FA Cup..."

After the game, not only the traditional media, but also people on the Internet expressed their opinions on the Flash Star game.

Just like these examples, most people think that it is unwise for Shining Star to be obsessed with the FA Cup for no reason. Therefore, losing the first round of the FA Cup final is not necessarily a bad thing for Flash Star.

In this way, Flash Star should be able to wake up and concentrate on preparing for the league and ensuring promotion.

As for the second round of the FA Cup final...why still think about it? Can Flash Star return to the home court to make a comeback after falling behind by two goals?

what are you thinking...

Of course, not everyone can accept this result calmly, especially Flash Star fans.

No matter how reasonable the narrators, media reporters and those people on the Internet say, no matter how objective and neutral, fair to the public, and unbiased...they can't press the heads of Flash Star fans and make them accept this calmly or even happily. The result of losing.

It is normal and reasonable to lose the game due to lack of strength.

But it can't be said that Flash Star fans clapped their hands and laughed because of this: "It's a good loss, and it's a wonderful loss, and we're croaking when we lose!"

There is anger in my heart, and I can't find the culprit, the golden arrow, to vent, so naturally I can only find another vent.

They hope that in the next league, the team can qualify for promotion as soon as possible in the league.

The FA Cup championship is out of the question, but the Super League qualification must not fly!
