Chapter 56

Juan was stunned, looked at the situation on the Greek side, and found that they all looked like hell, and knew that this was also Basinas's own sudden thought, rather than knowing that he would not play in the second half and might not be able to change his jersey, so he readily agreed.

"That's great! I'll go to your locker room after the game...... "Basinas is very happy, he has long wanted to change jerseys with Juan, but the situation in the last game is not suitable for rash action at all, in this game in order to prevent his teammates who are about to move, he can only strike first!

Juan was stunned and patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, you just remember to come over." ”

Seeing that Basinas got Juan's jersey so easily, the people on both sides were stunned, but before they could react, the staff had already said outside that they should hurry up and play, and no one felt that something was wrong when they played, but when the Greek side stood up and looked up and subconsciously wanted to find Juan, the only one on the opposite side who was easier to identify, he found the problem sluggishly.

- What about Juan?

Where is Juan Díaz?

"God, who can tell me why Juan Díaz is sitting on the edge of the pitch with a big bag of snacks in his hand?" The commentary in the live broadcast room was also very emotional, "Let's be honest with you, I've been commenting for nearly ten years, and in my commentary career, it's the first time I've seen such a player with no baggage." ”

"I've been commenting for more than seven years, and it's not like I've never seen a player with a high psychological element," his partner sighed, "but it's the first time I've seen a player with such a good psychological element." He started the European Cup final and was substituted at halftime, as if he had been prepared for a long time, and directly brought a big bag of snacks out to eat......"

"Ah, I know why." The narrator smiled knowingly, "Didn't Juan keep saying that he was always inconsiderate?" Generally speaking, that pack of snacks is the source of his body supplement. ”

"So? So if he had a snack bag, would Juan be able to play on the court again? ”

"Not necessarily, usually this bag is brought to the coach's seat in advance, and he will eat it after he gets off the field."

"Does this have any special effect?"

The narrator turned around and looked at his partner with a very indescribable expression: "...... You guess? ”

The situation on the field is changing rapidly, and they can take advantage of the beginning of the game to tease Juan, after all, this game is expected to be anxious, the only surprise is that Scolari actually replaced Juan from the field, otherwise maybe the current shape shì is more calm.

Of course, since Juan's departure has become a certainty, it is impossible for them to say that they are patronizing this matter on the field, in fact, their main attention is now focused on the game, and Greece now seems to be a little more open when carrying the ball because of the lack of Juan in the back, and they launched a strong attack at an opportunity.

"Crisis in Portugal! Venettidis was heading towards the Portuguese half with the ball, and around him were Zagorakis and Jana Kopolos! The length of the name My God...... Oh! Carvalho stepped forward to defend and the Portuguese youngster has been playing well in the European Championship and is currently playing for Porto in the Portuguese Super League, but as far as we know, he will be joining his mentor Jose Mourinho in the Premier League next season! ”

'Carvalho plays like a scavenger, he is good at flanking and sometimes leading the ball to provoke counter-attacks, and when Juan is not on the field, he can take Juan's responsibility and help the team eliminate dissent.

"Hey, your dissident is scary...... commentator reluctantly followed, "but the Greek player calmly shook off Carvalho, and he still has room for improvement in this regard." ”

"Yes, compared to Juan, he is weaker in ball handling ability, and his defensive strength is not very sufficient, but as a defender, you can't compare him with Juan as a midfielder, it's unfair."

Indeed, for his age group, Juan's one-on-one ability to hold the ball can be said to be rolling, and at the same time, he can also complete the ball forward from the backfield, improve the team's offensive advancement speed, play the role of a midfield engine at any time on the field, and of course, most importantly, his defensive ability is also excellent, if nothing else, Juan should be the next superstar in today's football.

"It's a pity, it's a pity." The two commentators sighed at the same time, and at this time, the camera turned to the Portuguese bench, Juan was selling his snacks to Juan, the second assistant coach next to him, and that ill-intentioned look made the two people who were still here sad for him twitch the corners of their mouths.

"Ahem...... We went on watching the game and Andrade sealed the ball, which is a dangerous ball, wait! The ball is not out of bounds yet!! ”

Almost everyone stood up and looked in the direction of the ball, especially when they realized that it was not the Flame Burning Forest that was standing at the spot where the ball landed, but the man in the blue and white jersey in Greece, almost everyone jumped in fear, and their hearts hung in their throats.

"Oh!!"

exclaimed, the on-site commentator couldn't help but cover his eyes, and slapped his face with a "snap" that hurt when he heard it......

"I can't afford to look any further...... How could Portugal be so unlucky at the European Championship in front of their own door? ”

"According to the Chinese side, this may be the 'Bloody Disaster'." His partner gave him a deep look, "Does it hurt?" ”

"I don't think there's going to be a pain ......from Coach Scolari," the narrator took a deep breath, "let's replay the scene for everyone!" ”

It can be clearly seen from the replay that Andrade sealed the ball, the ball did not go out of bounds, there was a person who was already waiting there, a closer look is the Greek striker Nikoladis, a heavy gunner who is remembered for several games in the European Cup, and at the moment of receiving the ball, it can be said that he definitely saw the time.

- At this moment, the great man Ricciardo is still on the ground and has not gotten up, and there is chaos in front of the goal, he can send the ball into the goal with a heavy cannon!

He did choose to shoot, but the moment he shot the goal, a figure flew out and knocked the ball out of the field with a more powerful force!

Valente paused and felt relieved that he had done the right thing, but how could he listen to the uproar all around him? Portugal No. 3 looked up blankly in the direction the ball flew out, and then realized what he had done-

The ball flew straight out and smashed directly into the old man's face, and he fell to the ground on the spot and couldn't get up.

"Coach Scolari, are you alright?"

"Coach Scolari, can you hear me? Doctor! ”

Juan threw the snack bag and ran here, the speed of the team doctor was not slow, when he squatted down to check, Scolari seemed to be still in a fainting, it was obvious that the lethality of this ball to the old man was huge, and I didn't know if the consequence was a concussion or what, Hu Anxin was anxious, and turned around and urged the team doctor to get better.

"Oh, we can see that Juan's leg seems to be a little lame when he runs? This should be the reason for his end. ”

"Why do you still care about Juan Dias, the Portuguese coach seems to be hanging up!"

It's not enough to hang up, but the ball just now came too violently, and it was better to hit the arm or the fleshy place on the body, how could it be right in the head, the Brazilian coach had never been hit so the head in his life, so he naturally rolled his eyes on the spot.

The team doctor came late, and after checking up and down, he said calmly: "Don't panic, take it to a cool place to see the situation first." ”

"Okay, stretcher!"

There was a complete chaos on the sidelines, the players on the field were even more uninterested in playing, and Valente, who had caused a big disaster, was now kneeling directly beside the coach at a loss......

"Valente."

In a cold voice, Valente blinked, and looked up a little dazedly, only to meet Juan's ice-blue eyes.

"Valente, don't panic now, this is the time for us to stay calm."

Juan took a deep breath: "The game is not over yet, wait for the time when you make up for it...... If something goes wrong with you now, Coach Scolari won't let you go when he wakes up. ”

"Good!" Valente felt a little uncomfortable at this moment, but he also knew that this was not the time to blame himself, so he could only grit his teeth and nod, turn around and run on the court.

The game continued on the pitch, and Juan stayed by Coach Scolari's side to watch the situation.

However, the roof leak happened to rain overnight, and just as he looked down to see if Scolari needed an ice pack, the whole stadium boiled again.

“GOOOAL！ Basina! In the 65th minute, the Greek midfielder equalized!! The game goes on! ”

The shouts of the on-site commentator directly made him understand the situation on the court, Juan gasped, squinted his eyes and got up, exuding a cold aura all over his body.

He shouldn't have left early, he should have ......

"Juan, are you thinking of something terrible?" Juan, the second assistant teacher, was also here, and he couldn't help but shudder when he saw his expression.

"No, I'm just blaming myself." Juan shook his head, "I shouldn't have ......"

"You didn't do anything wrong." The second assistant teacher sighed and waved his hand, "I have to take care of it here, and the most important thing you should do now is to stabilize the situation on the field...... They're already in a mess. ”

The second assistant coach looked up, Juan also turned his head, most of the people on the field were indeed looking in his direction now, and they were very dispossessed, and they had the demeanor of conceding another goal later.

The second assistant coach patted him on the shoulder and was very calm: "I know that you are also six gods now, but as you just said, you are in the game now, and you have to take responsibility for everyone...... Now the only person who can help is you, go and stabilize the morale of the army. ”

It's not that they don't want to be the one to take Scolari's place at the front, but for now, there is no one in the room more suitable than Juan.

- When they were panicking just now, Juan was the only one who rushed over and calmly ordered a qiē, at least at the age of 21 and less than 22, which was already very rare.

Juan knew what he meant, and he knew what was most needed on the field at this time, so after a moment of silence, he nodded:

"Got it, then I'll leave it to you."

Quaresma was still struggling on the pitch, he knew that this was the critical time for the team's survival, and now that Coach Scolari had fallen on the sidelines, Juan was there to take care of him, and he couldn't care about it at all, and now they were the only ones who managed themselves.

- Fortunately, Rui Costa and Deco are both on the field, at least the two of them will not be chaotic in the midfield, and in the backfield, maybe after the impact just now, Valente is a little distracted, but in the end he is still dutiful.

Just as he was running, he suddenly heard someone on the sidelines shouting his name, Quaresma turned his head to see Juan standing there and waved at him, he hurriedly ran over, but Juan grabbed him and said, "Listen to Rika, I have an idea in a while......"

Quaresma was dumbfounded, but before he could express his opinion, Juan slapped him to the side.

"Cristiano!"

As soon as Quaresma saw that the other person was about to be called over, he knew that this was a big game, and he would not let him participate in it alone, so he was relieved and ran away, looking back as he ran, and sure enough, his teammates also had a surprised expression on their faces.

Originally, he thought that it was already great that there were already two people in attendance, but Juan turned Figo over again.

So what happened to Juan?

"Luis, you know, my philosophy has never changed from before to now, which is to attack, attack with all your might, and never leave yourself a way out, so make a last effort, even if I'm not on the field, you have to trust your teammates at the back."

First of all, such an opening made the Portuguese captain stunned. After all, he didn't seem to say that it took so long when he saw the two children running here just now?

Juan explained a rare sentence and continued, "So even if you are asked to do something terrible later, please believe me."

Figo waved his hand, "Say it."

No matter how terrible it is, how terrible can it be!

However, Fei soon began to wonder whether he was too old to keep up with the times, or if he was developing too fast now.

"Do you really think so? Do you think that's really okay? Not kidding, right? ”

"It's all this time, do you think I'm joking?" Juan waved his hand, "Go ahead, give your best for the last ten minutes." ”

"But, but ......"

'If I score in those 10 minutes I don't have anything to say, if not, give me a chance in extra time and try my new ideas.'

Figo thought that if the game was still in extra time, it would be a desperate job, this was the closest he was to the European Cup, he gritted his teeth: "It's done!"

However, in the final ten minutes, Portugal failed to find the back of the net and the game went into extra time, and if there was no goal in extra time, Greece and Portugal would have had another penalty shoot-out.

Penalties are a painful memory for Portugal, especially against England, and it wasn't the final yet, and now that Greece are at the end, they will definitely give everything they have.

-- Portugal really don't have a strong point when it comes to taking penalties, especially when Juan, who is best suited for penalties, is sitting on the sidelines.

'I don't know if it's a coincidence or not, but every time Portugal is going to take a penalty or it's confirmed, the people they are best suited to take the penalty are off the pitch. The on-site commentator who said this sentence sighed.

"Actually, it's not necessarily a bad thing!" His partner was staring at the situation on the pitch when he said this, because by this time he had already keenly noticed that the pitch was starting to be different.

If I had to say something different,

The situation on the field is a little tangled, especially the people of the Portuguese team, they are discussing something, but at the moment, the bigwigs on the field seem to be a little hesitant.

This sign of impending storms made everyone hold their breath, even because the two sides were tied and both sides were going to go to extra time, everyone was still very excited.

The people on the Portuguese side did not give up hope because of this, and even they did not see the slightest expression of discouragement or giving up on their faces, at most they were a little hesitant, but what were they hesitating about?

Soon the mystery is revealed, but it is also one of the last things you want to see.

That was at the beginning of extra time, and this time it was Greece's turn to serve.

But this time, both Greece and the referee just stood in their positions, and then looked in the direction of the Portuguese team, because their position this time was too weird.

"What are Portugal doing, are they ready to play rugby? Or are they going to perform a quick-change training for all of us? The commentary in the live broadcast room was directly depressed.

To be reasonable, even if he and his partner have 20 years of commentary experience combined, there has never been a team that has been in such a position as Portugal when serving in midfield.

"What's ......?"

"Why are Portugal all on the line in the centre circle?"

Whether in front of the TV, in person or watching the live webcast, the fans will already express their confusion.

…… What is the Portuguese team going to do, God?

"You really don't plan to change your position?"

The referee of the match, a Dane, hesitated for a long time before turning to Figo, only to see the Portuguese captain with a look of sacrifice or desperation.

"We don't have any problems with our position, please serve!"

So the referee took a deep breath and blew the whistle, in fact, he also wanted to know what the Portuguese wanted to do, and then he soon knew.

"My God, my Allah Jesus Allah," the commentary in the live broadcast room was directly stunned. "What kind of terrible formation is this,, could it be the long-lost 811 style of play in the stadium?!"

Now he just wants to scold excitedly, and he doesn't care at all whether he will be deducted from his salary because of this, after all, the situation on the field now makes him really incomprehensible.

'We can see that when we serve in the midfield, everyone in Portugal on the halfway line almost immediately rushes towards the Greek half, and only two people rush towards their own half, and those two are Carvalho and Valente.

At this time, the commentary of the live broadcast can be said to be moving very fast, and it has reached the highest speed in history, but even so, he almost didn't keep up with the development of the shape on the field.

"Carvalho and Valente teamed up to flank the Greek players! Zagorakis, who was dribbling the ball, had not taken two steps before Carvalho cut off the ball, and then Carvalho passed the ball to Valente, who gave the ball to the Greek half with a kick. ”

"The one who catches the ball is Andrade! We can see that Andrade rushed into the opponent's half for the first time, and for the first time he did not stay in his position, Andrade made a leap to the top and passed the ball to Maniche! ”

"Maniche dribbled the ball and passed it to Quaresma without taking two steps! We can see that Quaresma also quickly transferred the ball to Figo within two steps! Figo shoots! ”

“GOOOOOOAAAAL!！！ Luis Figo! Portugal's big heroes! The European Championship is about to be in our hands and we can see that it is a goal that takes only 21 seconds, which can be said to break the record for the fastest goal in the European Cup! ”

"We have reason to suspect that the goal was remembered by someone, maybe he had counted himself as one of the purposes, but now he can only sit on the sidelines and watch his team-mates party on the pitch!"

"Oh—maybe not so bad."

The reason for this is that Juan was suddenly surrounded by the staff around him, who cheered and pounced on him to give him a hug.

"Wait a minute! There's still time for the game, and it's not time to celebrate, so calm down! Juan's shouts were already drowned out in the excitement of everyone, and he struggled for a while, and when he saw that the people around him were also in extreme excitement, he also sighed and went with them.

Of course, it was in vain for him to shout, after all, everyone was now overwhelmed by cheers.

And what's even worse is that as far as the eye can see, the teammates of those teams are also rushing in his direction, Juan suddenly felt bad in his heart, and immediately bent down and threw himself into the crowd.

"Wow...... It's really a magnificent Dieren Mountain. The on-site commentator sighed, a little gloating: "Almost a dozen or twenty people are stacked together, do you think Juan has been crushed to death?" ”

"Do you think Juan is going to be the kind of person who suffers?"

In two sentences, they had found Juan again - he didn't know when he had come out, and he was not in the crowd at all!

"It looks like he's going to be a big change." The on-site commentator said with a smile, after all, judging from the situation just now, Juan should have been hugged by the people around him and couldn't get out of it at all.

The linesman ran over to blow the whistle, signaling that they had been celebrating for too long, asking them to separate, and when everyone reluctantly dispersed, they found Juan standing on the edge of the court at this moment, and smiled at them with leisure: "Why don't you go to the game?" ”

…… Hey?!

Everyone went back with their heads held high, and they all secretly rubbed together to prepare to score another goal and then continue to come over to "insult" Juan, Juan naturally had them go, and they wouldn't suffer anyway.

Seeing that the ball was finally sent to the back of the net, he was no longer constantly worried, after all, the time and morale were here, and if the Greeks could chase two goals in the next five minutes to win, he would be convinced - of course, and at the same time, it should be emphasized that Deportivo La Coruna may have a different name in the future.

How about calling the Portuguese national team in Deportivo La Coruna :)

After making sure that there was nothing wrong with the situation on the field, he went back to ask Scolari about his condition, and Juan replied: "Coach Scolari has woken up and is checking for specific symptoms, so it should be fine......

was stunned by the ball cleared by his own players, Scolari is also the only one, no matter how he looks at it, it's a little embarrassing, so no matter whether the old man is really uncomfortable, or just watching that there is no problem on the field, so he simply doesn't come out, he doesn't bother to ask!

Of course, don't think he didn't see the old coach looking out at the entrance of the players' tunnel!

When the final whistle blew, the dust settled, and the Portuguese team could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

It's finally confirmed, and they're champions!

They finally won the first European Championship in the history of the Portuguese team!

This sounds quite sad, but Juan also knows the situation of the team, so he did not stop the players from going crazy on the field, especially Rui Costa and other old-timers who are about to retire from the national team at the beginning of this year, they absolutely did not expect that they could get the European Championship that they have dreamed of for a lifetime in the year they decided to leave the national team.

Portugal has won two European Youth Championships for the Golden Generation, but it took almost a decade to win the senior title.

After the victory of the game was confirmed, the entire Stadium of Light turned into a sea of joy, everyone sang the Portuguese national anthem, and at the same time pulled the strangers around them to hug, kiss and cheer, which is a monument in the history of Portuguese football!

The players were running around the pitch celebrating their victory, and a few even took out the national flag from the bench and wrapped it around their waists, jumping around the field, twisting and jumping on the pitch to look funny, but no one was going to laugh at them at this time, everyone wanted to be able to lift everyone up and throw it high into the sky!

The simple podium was quickly set up, and after the Greek players won the silver medals, the Portuguese players began to wear the gold medals one by one at home and to the applause of the crowd.

Juan had retreated to the back by this time, not because he felt that he was not worthy of it or because of some flesh pain, but out of caution.

…… What if someone gives him a bad idea behind his back when he is standing in front, and then the whole team comes to a mountain of stacked people? This possibility is not impossible! Especially when he's going to keep the whole team behind him!

However, even if he hid at the end, Scolari would not let him hide, and when the game was over, he had already been discovered, and seeing that he was no longer in the way, everyone pulled him to accept the award, and just when the UEFA president was about to hand over the trophy to Scolari, Scolari asked everyone to pull Juan over.

"What's wrong Coach? It's the same with me standing in the back. Juan was the first to say this, he had a hunch that Scolari was going to make a big news! But doesn't this old fox usually like to look like a good old man with a smile on his face, and then just say anything casually?

Something must be wrong with all of a sudden being so positive today!

"Just come here." Scolari pulled Juan to his side, took his hand and placed it on the trophy, "Here, say good trophy, get it." ”

"I know coach, you're really good." Juan was keenly aware that something was wrong, but as soon as he tried to step back, his back was already blocked by a group of teammates.

- Bunnies?! Juan was just about to turn around and glaring at his teammates when Scolari took the two of them and lifted the trophy together! Hu Fu was stunned for a moment, and turned his head to look at Figo, and their Portuguese captain also cheered with a relieved look, not feeling anything wrong at all.

After a few seconds, Scolari handed the trophy to Figo, who nodded and took the cup and lifted it up! The audience cheered and shook, everyone danced and sang excitedly on the stage, and Juan pulled Scolari to stand next to him: "Coach, be reasonable, that was not in accordance with the rules just now." ”

"Don't reason with me, I'm not a reasonable person." Scolari learned Juan's tone at halftime, Juan was stunned, and then listened to Scolari continue: "Boy, Alex got you an FA Cup, and a Premier League championship, I got you a European Cup championship, and you participated in all three championships, no matter what, your gold content can always be justified!" ”

Juan was stunned for a moment, and then immediately understood what Scolari meant, and nodded helplessly: "Thank you very much and the lord." ”

The two old-timers are very caring and caring for him, and this may be the only two short periods of warmth in his coaching career, and the next time is to fight with the whole world.

The commentary in the live broadcast room continues: "Although it is a pity that this year's dark horse did not go straight to the end, at least we have witnessed the occurrence of a miracle!" They don't have a single superstar on their team, but they've gotten to this point! It's really amazing......"

"France, Spain, Czech ...... They have proven what they are capable of! ”

"Of course, the first thing we want to congratulate is our host, Portugal! They managed to win the cup! ”

The old-timers represented by Rui Costa and the newcomers represented by Cristiano were all singing the Portuguese national anthem with tears in their eyes and saluting the audience, their games and hard work on the pitch for so many years have finally paid off, and they are finally not hopeless in the national team!

However, when everyone was excited on the court, Juan had already walked back to the players' tunnel, where Scolari was cleaning himself up, and when he saw him, he smiled: "Thank you." ”

“…… Coach, let's go to the press conference together, shall we? Juan asked hopefully, how could the group of madmen on the field be counted on now, Juan was ready to go to the meeting generously by himself, and now seeing Scolari, he was immediately ready to take people with him.

The old fox smiled at him, then covered his head and frowned and began to sigh: "Ouch, my head hurts...... I feel like I'm out of breath, team doctor, team doctor come and see me, ouch hey......"

The team doctors, who were still happily hugging each other, were frightened by him, and immediately let go and jumped over to see his situation, Juan knew what he meant when he saw that Scolari had been surrounded, and couldn't help but sigh and turn around and go away.

――This national team is too evil

Juan originally planned to go directly to the press conference, but he remembered that he had already agreed with Cassie that he would call him after the game, so he took a detour to the locker room first, and saw Basinas standing in front of his locker room at a glance.

Juan couldn't help but look at the top of his head and couldn't help but think of the two of them.

One is Carvalho, who is the same age as Basnas, both of whom are 28 years old, but compared to Carvalho's baby-faced face and thick hair, Basnas seems to be probably probably ......

A bit of an old orz

When it comes to looking old, he naturally thinks of the one from the Netherlands, huh......

"I've been waiting." Juan said hello, which startled Basinas, who waved his hand to indicate that he was only here for a moment, with a look of horror on his face.

How can you not be frightened? He was ready to wait for half an hour or an hour, after all, this is people's home field, and it's no problem for people to celebrate here!

As a result, he had only been standing for two minutes before Juan had already arrived.

Juan naturally saw the flattery on the other party's face, but he couldn't say that he just came back to get his phone, how sad was that? So Juan could only nod, and then let people in: "My shirt for the first half of the game has been changed, give." ”

"Okay." Basinas smiled, took off his jersey and put Juan's clothes on his shoulders, Juan originally thought that this was the end, but Basinas hesitated in front of him for a while, Juan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he looked at it: "Is there anything else?" ”

"A little bit...... That, I'd like to ask. Basinas rubbed his sparsely haired Mediterranean, and Juan couldn't bear to look at it, "Are you the coach of Laco now...... Are you short of replacements? ”
