055 The most famous player on the team
When the sun rises again, the morning light moves like a curtain to turn the entire city of Braga from dark to bright.
On a hillside less than three kilometers from Braga's most famous World Heritage Cathedral, Tang Hong, dressed in shorts, is doing yoga barefoot on a gym mat, overlooking the city of Braga from dark to light, and Braga at sunrise is like an ink painting.
Behind it is a marble pool that is part of his new home, fenced off at the steep slope and has a privileged view of Braga.
The bungalow behind the pool is not big or luxurious, but it is definitely more than enough for him and Sun Rou to live, with plenty of sunshine, spacious rooms, and a vast back garden.
In addition to the garage, the decoration of the villa is very simple, with whitewashed walls, simple ceilings, wooden floors and wardrobes built by the way, complete water and electricity communications, and a wall-hung stove for heating.
It only took Sun Rou one day to add all the appliances to the originally empty villa, which suddenly filled the originally monotonous room with the smell of home.
Tang Hong signed a professional contract with Braga, he only made one modification to the contract, changing the contract period from three years to two years, Yaltim as the new coach, his contract with Braga is three years, he originally thought that he would also give Tang Hong three years, which can be regarded as a synchronized rhythm, but he didn't expect Tang Hong to have his own opinions.
As for the contract treatment, it is almost negligible, and that little income is not enough for Tang Hong to live in a villa worth 890,000 euros in the mid-levels.
Tang Hong got the contract, and Sun Rou got a new kitchen.
With the new season just around the corner, Braga will soon have a pre-season warm-up and the new season will kick off in two weeks' time!
Braga's pre-season build-up has passed, and with the recent technical training and tactical drills, Tang Hong is the player who communicates with Yaltium the most, because he is a newcomer, because he needs to spend more time to understand what the coach is trying to say.
Assistant coach Antonio Vieira said that there will be a 30-minute intra-team coaching game this afternoon, and Tang Hong will definitely play, so he needs to be better prepared for today's game and adjust his physical condition from the morning when he gets up.
He swam in the pool for 15 minutes before breakfast, then had breakfast with Sun Rou before riding his bike down the hill to the Braga training base.
Sun Rou bought two bicycles, and during the day she would ride a lady's bicycle with a basket down the mountain to buy food, and she would also walk around the city, and Wise lived in a small apartment at the foot of the mountain, and for a bachelor, a one-bedroom apartment would definitely make him very comfortable.
When he came to the training base to train as usual, when it was time to eat at noon, Tang Hong habitually sat alone, but someone sat around him with a dinner plate.
Barbosa, Viana, Amorim.
The three of them were a bit haunted, but Tang Hong was not disgusted, maybe they were using themselves as a pastime to pass the time of boredom, but at the same time they did teach Tang Hong some Portuguese.
Tang Hong will take the initiative to communicate with others in Portuguese, but the object is basically the coach, there is nothing to talk about among teammates, and there is not much common topic.
The three of Barbosa were sent to the door, which also made Tang Hong unable to refuse people, after all, more communication can lead to more progress.
"You must be eager to perform in the afternoon teaching competition, right?"
Amorim asked Tang Hong with a normal expression.
Tang Hong nodded and said, "Of course, there is still some curiosity, I want to know what my position in this team is." β
Balbosa gave him a thumbs up and said, "Okay, which team are you on?" β
Tang Hong frowned and asked rhetorically, "Is it already a team?" β
The three of them looked at each other, and Barbosa also frowned, and asked, "Didn't you give you a detachment?" β
Tang Hong shook his head and said, "No one has ever told me about the detachment. β
Barbosa said helplessly: "Okay, then you have to ask, after all, we have so many players, don't forget you, you can go and ask Pires." β
Tang Hong thought about it, he really should ask, if everyone else has already divided the team, but not for himself, this is obviously a problem!
He was just about to get up when Amorim raised his hand and said, "Pires doesn't speak English like Vieira, you can only communicate with him in Portuguese." β
Tang Hong thought that Pires on the coaching staff did indeed only speak Portuguese.
Balbosa said to him, "Come, I'll teach you, and you can ask him which team I'm on?" Then you write down his answer, and I'll translate it for you. β
Tang Hong followed Balbosa to repeat Portuguese three times and then got up and walked to the coaching staff's table, he politely called Pires, and then said what Balbosa taught him, and then, the coaches at the table were stunned!
Yaltium slapped the table and scolded Tang Hong: "What nonsense? Hurry up and disappear for me! β
Tang Hong suddenly realized that he had been tricked, and when he looked back, Balbosa and Amorim were both hanging their heads on the table, their shoulders shaking all the time, obviously suppressing laughter, while Viana also laughed, but slightly more reservedly.
The players at the other tables looked at Tang Hong thoughtfully, not knowing what trouble he had caused.
Tang Hong apologized to Pires in Portuguese, then returned to his place and sat down to look at Barbosa and Amorim, waiting for the two to let out a strange whine.
He said helplessly to the three of them: "I don't mind you joking, but please have a limit, disrespectful behavior to the coach is obviously out of bounds."
Okay, what exactly did you just ask me to talk about? β
Speaking of which, Balbosa and Amorim wanted to laugh again!
Viana explained to Tang Hong.
Tang Hong was really speechless.
The words that Balbosa had just taught him simply were: Can I enter your?
No wonder Pires didn't get angry just now, but was stunned, and others reacted first.
......
After the lunch break, when it was time to train in the afternoon, Barbosa, Viana and Amorim were arranged by the coach to do physical training, which was definitely a chore.
Obviously, the coaches are not stupid, knowing that these small gangs of three people are making fun of Tang Hong, there is no need to really punish them, but it is still necessary for the three of them to understand that they know everything.
After six o'clock, Yaltim clapped his hands and asked the team to assemble and start preparing for the intra-team teaching game.
Because there are more than 30 people in the team and are divided into two teams, Tang Hong has also roughly figured out the status of the players in the Braga team these days.
Today, the main team was divided into a team, it is understandable that the new season is approaching, if Yaltim does not want to create pressure on himself at the beginning of the season, it must be to let the main team fully run in the tactics, as for the substitutes and rotation players, then naturally line up first, and I can't take care of it at present.
Veteran goalkeeper is the main player, and the backup goalkeeper is 28-year-old Italian Boni.
In terms of defenders, apart from central defender Brazilian Everton, there is no one who cannot be beaten by the thunder, but even the rotation is between a few people, right wing-backs JΓΊnior Bayano and Miguel LΓ³pez, central defenders Douglan and Coelho, left wing-backs Eziegil and Paulo Vinicius.
In midfield are Viana, Portugal international defenders Custodio, Barbosa, Mosoro, Amorim.
There are two main players in the attack, Alain and Lima of Brazil, and Ukara and Kalou, Nuno Gomez and Paulo Cesar on the bench, and the rest of the forwards are Brazilian players except for the 23-year-old Ukara and Nuno Gomez.
The substitutes and rotation players were assigned to the first team, Tang Hong was naturally on this team, and in their team there was Braga's most famous star now!
Portugal international star Nuno Gomez, who joined in the summer, is 35 years old, but his resume is the most brilliant in Braga, and he has played many continental and world tournaments with the Portuguese national team!
Due to the position, Tang Hong was not arranged to enter the starting lineup, and if he came on as a substitute in this 30-minute teaching game, it may only be about 10 minutes.
But he remained patient, still listening carefully to Vieira's deployment and understanding his intentions.
At the beginning of the teaching match, the main team was of course stronger and had an advantage on the field, but obviously both teams did not go all out.
However, it is clear that most of the players on the bench team have used too much force, but they have no chance and cannot create a decent threat.
Nuno Gomez is very positive and it is clear from his fighting spirit that he is not here to retire in Braga and wants to make a difference here.
The game played 21 minutes, and the main team led by 3 goals, and the gap was obvious.
At this time, the team made substitutions, and several players on both sides were substituted, Tang Hong appeared on the field at this time, and when he just ran into the field and passed by Nuno Gomez, the other party didn't even look at Tang Hong, but asked: "What position do you play?" β
It seems that he didn't listen to the coach's deployment before the teaching game at all.
Tang Hong said to him: "Winger, left, right ......"
Nuno Gomez still said lightly: "Okay, pass the ball to me, and defend the rest of the time." β
He was like talking to the air, Tang Hong's heart was like a mirror, and he knew that he was not taken seriously, so he didn't refute it.
He was never special at the training ground in Braga, special was that he was Chinese, special was that he did not speak Portuguese, special was that he could be a source of laughter for his teammates.
As for what the MVP of the World Junior Championships, no one cares, the players who can play here have more or less real materials, and they are really different from fame and fame at the World Junior Championships.
Nuno Gomes was also a young talent, he was followed by Figo and Rui Costa in the Portuguese shirt, he has seen the rise and maturity of Cristiano Ronaldo, he has breached Kahn's goal, scored twice against England in the European Championship, beat Parma in the Coppa Italia final, and he has been a legend there for Benfica for more than a decade combined.
If Tang Hong really thought that he had won the World Junior Championships and the whole world would give him face and value him, then he would really live two lives in vain!
