Chapter 3 Japan vs Germany
The next morning, Melbourne Park.
The flow of people is endless, and the traffic is busy. From the front of the gate to hundreds of meters away, all kinds of luxury cars were parked, and media reporters gathered here early, and the sound of the shutter clicked non-stop. As one of the four major tournaments, it is the first time that the Tennis World Cup has been held!
"It's coming, it's coming!"
I don't know who shouted, and all the cameras were instantly aimed at the distance. The representative teams of 32 countries, led by the former champion Germany, came slowly by bus.
Hmm~ The bus stopped, and a group of black-clothed white youths got out of the car under the leadership of Polk, and in an instant, countless cameramen aimed at Polk's shiny bald head and quickly pressed the shutter in their hands.
As a professional player, Polk was not shocked and walked towards the hall with steady steps. These white men looked at his distant back, nodding incessantly, their eyes full of appreciation.
"It's Polk, the aura of a professional player is really extraordinary!"
"That's natural, it is said that Philipp is very optimistic about him and has already introduced him to the head coach of the German national team!"
"Oh? Then it seems that Polk will soon be seen in the national team competition! ”
At the same time, some people noticed a special figure in the crowd, and one person wondered, "What's going on?" Why is there an Asian player on the German team who looks like he is still a junior high school student? ”
As soon as he finished speaking, some of the cameras instantly turned to Tezuka among the players. However, after all, he has an extraordinary mentality, and in the face of the glittering lens, Tezuka's watch is very natural.
But people are not too surprised by this, after all, there have been players from different countries who have gone to other teams to compete in the past. Moreover, the team only passed for about ten seconds, and reporters did not pay attention to an Asian American, and there were some star players who were not bad for Polk in Switzerland, the United States and other countries behind.
Ralph, the captain of the U.S. team, Gammus, the big player of the French team, and Amartis, the main player of the Swiss team, are also professionals. and Shiraishi, who is only a junior high school student, but is already famous.
The reporters reported outside, and from the TV stations of various countries, they could see young players calmly stepping into the stadium. Compared with the Olympic Games, the momentum of this World Cup is naturally not as high, but in the field of tennis, it is necessary to strengthen the Olympic tennis competition. Because this tournament is about the future of the country, this is a tennis tournament that is second only to the four major tournaments.
There was once a player who was unknown before the World Cup, but because of his amazing performance in the tournament, he instantly became a hot star player. As for the players who are already famous, their value has doubled, which has greatly shortened the time to become a professional player.
Some people call the junior competitions attached to the four major tournaments a trial match, but what can really justify the player's name is the World Cup-level competition. Even as long as you make a splash in this competition and come up with an amazing result, it is equivalent to getting a professional player's certificate! It's not official, but it's a world-recognized business card!
After entering, the Japanese team first went to their lounge. The inside is not luxurious, compared with the facilities of the Zhongren Hotel, the white walls, a few flowers and plants, and a small conference table are very simple, but they are also very comfortable.
Looking at the people seated, Mifune said, "In five minutes, it's our warm-up match against Germany. Germany, needless to say, has been avoided by all countries for nine consecutive victories. Unfortunately, we were selected for this lottery. ”
Mifune's words, the eyes of those who were already worried were uncertain, the former champion Germany, the world's nine consecutive hegemons, this is a terrifying achievement. However, not everyone is afraid, and the top five of the first army are calm. In the second army, the eyes of the trace department flashed with excitement, Sanada exuded a faint battle spirit, and Fuji, Chitose and others also smiled and said nothing.
"But again, a strong Germany is also our litmus test, and my players are not weaker than them." Mifune's words turned, and the whole person exuded a strong pride.
A smile also appeared on the corner of Bai Shi and the others' mouths, and sure enough, the old man was not the kind of person who was timid before fighting. This is also what they think too much, according to Mifune's terrifying attitude on weekdays, it is estimated that even if their opponent is a professional team, the old man will take a big stick to drive them into battle.
However, several people glanced at each other and thought in their hearts: "This kind of coach is suitable for them!" ”
"So!" Mifune's body suddenly leaned forward, his hands supporting the table, his eyes were a little crazy, and he yelled at everyone, "Boys! Go, go, go! Wear! Generation! World! Let's do it! ”
Swish!
Everyone stood up at the same time, looking at this old man who was close to the age of sixties, and a sense of pride was brewing in his chest. What about the German team, they have to prove themselves to the world after the special training of the cohabitant!
In the park, the atmosphere is already bursting.
The open seats on all sides were filled with fanatical fans. They held banners, waved all kinds of small national flags in their hands, and frantically shouted the names of their idols.
Among them are the elderly, the young, the young and the young and the housewives. At the moment, though, they're just fans, fanatics chanting for the players on the pitch. Here, it's just tennis!
"Click!"
Suddenly, the passage on the west side opened. At the same time, the host's excited voice was also heard on the radio: "Here is the former champion of the U-17 World Cup, the German team enters!! ”
Rumble!
Suddenly, as if water was mixed into a boiling oil pot, the entire crowd suddenly erupted into a frantic shout. The white men and women held a banner on their chests with the German flag painted on it and a slogan written in German - 'The German team will win!' ’
"Germany!" "Germany!" "Germany!"
People chanted the names of the German team, wave after wave. And when the German main player Polk appeared with the players, the cheers of the audience reached their peak, and the cheers were also mixed with the sound of 'Polk', which shows the weight of Polk in this team.
A professional tennis commentator once said that teams with professional players have a much higher winning rate than other countries. As the defending champion, Germany has had professional players in the previous nine World Cups, and because of this, Germany was once known as the center of European tennis.
The team members slowly entered, and the host's voice came again: "The next one to enter is the Japanese team!" ”
Call~
As if the bleak autumn wind was blowing, the white people on the stage looked coldly at the team led by Phoenix. Compared with the previous German team, the treatment of the two is very different, and the arrival of the Japanese team did not cause a ripple at all.
"Oops! What a big place! Kintaro, who was walking at the back of the line, looked around curiously like a baby, which attracted the ridicule of many people on the stage.
"Does this kid know how to hold a racket?"
"Hey! Boy, get out of here! ”
However, these people were in English, and Kintaro didn't understand half of a sentence. And looking at the people on the stage smiling, he thought he was saying hello to himself, and touched his head embarrassedly.
"Boom!"
Ken also looked at him like this, and looked at his head, tears appeared in the corners of Kintaro's eyes in pain, and he pursed his mouth and said aggrievedly, "Why knock me!" Do you know how stupid this will be? ”
Seeing him like this, Qian also knew that he was heavy, but he still said to him angrily: "Stupid, others are laughing at you!" ”
"Why are they laughing at me?" Kintaro regained his cute appearance.
"Because" At this time, Bai Shi in front of him turned his head, swept his eyes over the audience with different expressions, and said with a smile: "Because they think Xiao Jin's ball skills are not very good!" ”
"Hey!" Hearing Shiraishi's words, Kintaro suddenly came to his senses, he patted his chest, and said with pride: "Then let them see my strength!" ”
"yes!" Shiraishi smiled, his eyes searched the crowd, and finally, he saw the purple-haired girl in the crowd. The girl smiled sweetly at him, and he blinked, and said in a voice that only he could hear, "Next, it will make your jaws drop."
When the Japanese team was in place, the referee immediately said: "Next, start the first game of the World Cup warm-up match, the game between Germany and Japan!" ”
At the same time, cheers rang out all around.
On the Japanese side, Watanabe, who was not very high-profile, rolled up his clothes, picked up his racket and stood up after receiving the signal from Phoenix. Behind him, Fuji's eyes opened slightly, and he walked forward with him.
At the same time, two people also came out of the German side.
"In the first game, Bismarck and Seyfried of Germany vs Duke Watanabe and Shusuke Fuji of Japan"
"Game on!"
Oops, I bought the wrong chewing gum, and I can't stop scamming corpses
