In the imperial capital in October, it is a bit chilly at noon.
But the sun is shining and there is still a warm feeling.
Yan Xuejun used his hands to cover the awning and said to the people around him: "The weather is nice today."
"Yeah," his assistant agreed.
They both looked very relaxed, but in fact they were a little unhappy in their hearts.
Two balls! Two balls!
They lost two goals before the first half was even halfway through!
They would jump up and down just thinking about it, but they couldn’t jump up. Not only could they not jump up, they had to act as if they didn’t care, because they were the coaches! He is the backbone of the team! Not to mention the players on the bench, even the players on the field might look over here.
The players are already under a lot of pressure. Although they performed relatively steadily after conceding the second goal, that was just the result of their training all along. We must not add any more pressure to them at this time - if we want to give them instructions or reprimand them, we should do so during the half-time break!
They acted relaxed, but Coach Sun had a weird expression on his face.
Yes, Coach Sun.
The scores for Tiezhong's match were 136, while those for Yongcheng were 247.
So Coach Sun also has time today, and the reason why he is standing here is that he has a better relationship with Coach Yan.
It's not like the relationship with Tiezhong, where we meet at a competition and say hello and nod, but it's a real personal friendship.
Before the competition, Yan Xuejun asked him about the situation of Tiezhong.
Coach Sun also said something to him. This is another reason why Yangcheng International lost. Let’s not talk about this for now. At this time, Yan Xuejun saw that Coach Sun’s face was not right, so he smiled and said, “Old Sun, how come you care more about this than me, the head coach! Players, not only need to be able to play with the wind, but also with the wind. We at Yangcheng International can play both kinds of football.”
Coach Sun nodded and said a few words, then couldn't help but say, "Well, Old Yan, the player who's going to take the corner kick on the court is the player I told you about."
"Is that the player you were talking about who was so weird?"
Coach Sun nodded.
To say that Coach Sun deliberately set up a trap for Yan Xuejun is absolutely not the case. Their opponents in the next round are also very strong. It is hard to say whether they can make it through. It is also hard to say whether they will meet Yangcheng International if they make it through. So when he explained the situation to Yan Xuejun, he didn't say anything wrong on purpose... He just didn't tell him everything he knew. This doesn't mean he was hoping Yangcheng International would lose. It was mainly because he wasn't so sure about Wang Yijing.
So he told Yan Xuejun this - this year's Tiezhong is stronger than last year because a player with good organizational skills has emerged. However, with this level, they will not be able to beat Yongcheng, mainly because they also have a rather weird player. Why is it weird? The footwork is weird. His shooting is very threatening, but he is not so good in other areas.
They lost because the opponent had strong shooting ability.
Yan Xuejun thought, can he shoot? Wouldn't it be better not to let her shoot?
What? The shot cannot be defended, but can it be defended if we don't let her get to the goal area? If her movement is restricted, then no matter how powerful her shot is, she won't be able to make it!
——That’s why they lost the second ball, and it was because they focused on Wang Yajing!
——When the second ball was lost, Yan Xuejun really tried hard not to look at Coach Sun! ——Let’s not talk about the first world wave, that was a lucky shot. As for the second one, why didn’t you mention it earlier? This shot has no power? !
But at this time, he was very confident: "Don't worry, I have told our children, look at their positions."
At this point, he smiled again, this time from the heart.
The players of Yangcheng International are all in good positions. He believes that they can definitely win this ball and then make a fast break!
And if this fast break goes well, they can get back one point, and then... yes, they are still behind, but is being behind by only one goal considered being behind? They still have plenty of time.
Just as he was thinking this, Wang Yijing swung his leg...
So Yan Xuejun saw a scene he had never imagined before - the door of his own house was broken by a Bayesian arc!
When the ball went into the net, he first looked at Coach Sun, then looked at his own net, and then looked at Coach Sun again.
Coach Sun swallowed his saliva. Although he was prepared, he still had mixed emotions at this moment. He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but couldn't say anything.
He couldn't say anything, but Yan Xuejun had a lot to say - is this what you said is a bit strange? A little bit? !
Is this a point? Is this what you guys in Yongcheng are like?
A lot of words were stuck in Yan Xuejun's throat. He felt like he was a fire-breathing dragon at his limit. He could spit out a ball of fire just by opening his mouth.
At the same time as he was angry, he also felt a sense of hopelessness - three goals!
No matter where you put them, the three balls are hard to chase. What's more, two of these three goals were world-class goals! No one would believe this if I said it. In the top five leagues, it's different if you can score a world-class goal in a game. But in a game like theirs, two world-class goals in the first twenty minutes? What a joke!
But this is happening right before our eyes.
"My fate is not in my hands." Although he knew it was wrong, Yan Xuejun couldn't help but have such a feeling at this time... Well, football is about never giving up and sticking to the end, but if you say that football is not superstitious, that's really not true. Let’s not talk about the various belief operations of the players, even if the team believes in it, such as the seven black cats of Avellaneda that were reported in the mainstream official media. That was a curse that lasted for more than 30 years!
But Yangcheng International is still from Yangcheng.
He was like this, let alone the players. In the following game, they were like sleepwalking, and then in the 36th minute, Ren Yongmei scored the second goal.
There is nothing much to say about the following games.
During the half-time break, Yan Xuejun did encourage his players, but even he couldn't say that 4-0 was nothing. All he could tell his players was not to worry about the score and just try to play their best.
The players of Yangcheng International were crying their hearts out. They knew they were going to lose before the game was even over.
Of course, they didn't really give up completely. At the beginning of the second half, they still launched a crazy attack, but everyone in Tiezhong had already thought of it, and at this time they had to defend tightly. Well, in the second half, Coach Ni adjusted the team. She replaced Ren Yong and Wang Yijing with two guards. One reason is that they have already obtained enough points, and the other is that they want more players to experience the national competition.
Therefore, Tiezhong was a fully defensive team in the second half. Although Yangcheng International tried very hard, they only scored a goal to save face in the 38th minute.
At the end of the game, Yangcheng International was like sleepwalking, and Tiezhong... was also like sleepwalking.
Win?
They just won like that?
Although they discussed winning in the locker room, did they really win?
real.
The numbers on the scoreboard told them it was true, the gloomy look on coach Yan Xuejun’s face told them it was true, and the awkward look on coach Sun’s face also told them that it was really true!
Everyone in Tiezhong hugged each other. They were so excited that they didn’t know how they changed their clothes or got on the bus, until they went to eat hot pot... Yes, they went to eat hot pot again. This time they didn’t go back to the hotel to rest, but drove directly to a famous hot pot restaurant - this time, the restaurant was finally open, and they finally ate the mutton hot pot they had heard about since they were young.
This brand will be criticized a lot in the future, and people in the old capital will say it is not good and not authentic. But now, firstly, it has not reached the future yet, and secondly, everyone is happy!
Last time, no one could say they were unhappy, but there was always a sense of awkwardness in their hearts. Now, they are just pure happiness.
Su Li started singing while eating meat, and then asked everyone to sing.
"Su Li, you can do it now. Just sing by yourself. We still have to eat." Fan Jiajia said.
"If you don't want to sing, then don't sing. We still have to sing. Come on, Jingjing!"
Wang Yijing had just put a mouthful of mutton in her mouth when she almost spit it out. She glared at Su Li, and Su Li also looked at her.
“Come on!”
Wang Yijing swallowed her saliva: "Come, come what——"
"Sing a song! Why are you so quiet? You don't want to give me face, right?"
Wang Yijing felt a chill on her back, and then her mind went blank.
The little princess is not very good at singing. There are two main reasons for this. First, she deliberately avoids things related to music. She gave up learning the piano when she was a child, and also gave up music. Secondly, the Wang couple kept a strict control over her and absolutely forbade her to go to places like karaoke rooms. Therefore, the princess had no formal musical education, not even the casual singing.
Of course, it doesn’t mean that she can’t sing any song. She can still sing a few songs, but the ones she can sing now are all songs from the future! It will appear in a few years.
Now Su Li suddenly asked her to sing a song, but she couldn't think of what to sing? The school song of No.5 Middle School? It seems a bit off.
"Jingjing, you really don't want to sing?" Su Li began to squint.
"I-I sang out of tune."
"Then you sing or not!"
Sing!
Wang Yijing knew that she had to sing at this time.
"Pleasant Goat, Beautiful Goat, Lazy Goat, Boiling Goat..."
Su Li was stunned, Fan Jiajia was stunned, and even Zhang Sheng, who was about to change the subject, was stunned. Then, Ren Yongxian burst out laughing, and then everyone burst out laughing. Huang Sumin had something in her mouth and almost choked.
"Hahaha, Wang Yijing, what are you singing?"
Wang Yijing stopped and said, "I'm not singing a song, am I?"
"It's a song, but we are still eating shabu-shabu mutton here."
Wang Yijing looked at the juicy lamb slices and said, "...That sheep is not this sheep."
Everyone burst into laughter again, and no one mentioned singing anymore. Coach Ni still felt a little regretful: "I want you to sing more and eat less."
"Then, Coach Ni, you come?" Zhang Sheng asked. Coach Ni glared at her and said, "Eat yours."
Zhang Sheng stuck out his tongue and took two bites of mutton: "By the way, coach, do you have the contact information of coach Hongyan?"
As soon as these words came out, the whole room fell silent. Coach Ni glanced at them and said, "No... but we should be able to find it."
Everyone cheered together. Coach Ni looked at them and smiled, "Don't tell them the good news just because you made it to the quarterfinals. Hongyan has made it to the semifinals before."
"Coach, let's get ready first!"
"Coach, we will definitely make it to the finals!"
Everyone was talking and swearing, and Coach Ni smiled. Wang Yijing looked left and right, opening and closing her mouth. Zhang Sheng noticed: "What's wrong?"
Wang Yijing thought for a moment and said, "Maybe the Hongyan guys are not only good at playing football."
"What's the meaning?"
"If I continue to go to school, the government should provide subsidies, and some companies... may also provide subsidies." She was not very confident when she said the latter part. After all, she had never experienced it - no one in the university she attended needed subsidies, and those who needed subsidies would not go to her university. But she had heard Wang Yiheng mention it vaguely. Wang Yiheng just said it casually at the time, so she just listened to it. She didn't know what the specific conditions were for doing it.
She did know about the corporate part - later on, she often used steps and eggs to redeem some good deeds, all of which were sponsored by companies, but that was an APP that came later. She didn't know if there were any companies doing this now, and if so, how to do it.
Zhang Sheng raised his eyebrows: "I know about the government, but do companies also have this?"
"Well, I think..." Wang Yijing looked up and saw that everyone at the table was looking at her. She froze there and swallowed. "What are you doing?"
"Keep going, Wang Yijing." Su Li said, "Is there really a company that will support us?"
"...I'm not sure." As soon as these words came out, Su Li and others were immediately disappointed. She gritted her teeth and said, "I'll go back and check!"
"check?"
"Well, you can check it online." At this point, she pursed her lips and repeated, "Yes!"
"Okay, then Wang Yijing will help us check it online." Coach Ni smiled and patted Wang Yijing on the shoulder. "Don't feel stressed. It would be great if you can find it. But it doesn't matter if you can't. Let's just work hard and move forward!"
As she spoke, she raised the cup of mineral water, and everyone shouted and raised their cups as well.
Wang Yijing raised her glass with everyone else, feeling somewhat puzzled. When she returned to the hotel, she asked Zhang Sheng, "Well, everyone seems to be very interested in corporate sponsorship?"
Zhang Sheng looked at her without saying anything. Wang Yijing looked at her in confusion. Zhang Sheng sighed and thought for a moment: "Have you thought about the future?"

The author has something to say:
The story of the seven black cats is true and is a very famous event in football history. It is said that Avellaneda's opponents buried seven dead black cats near their home stadium. Since then, the team has never won a championship. They tried various methods to exorcise the evil spirit, but to no avail. Later, they used physical means to exorcise the evil spirits - using an excavator. Whenever they were off-season, they would dig up the bodies of black cats. It wasn’t until they found the seventh black cat that they won the championship. Far away…
