In the visiting dressing room, the players of the shining stars all hung their heads and were in a depressed mood.

Especially the captain of the team, Li Tielin, sat in his 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 him that the unsettling silence in the locker room was broken.

'Don't worry too much about the result of this game, we only lost by two goals and you guys are already doing well. I'm not trying to comfort you, I really think you're doing well. After conceding the second goal, I saw you flustering on the pitch for a while...... But soon you're back to normal, and I'm happy for your performance......"

Some coaches say this to satirize the performance of their players, but Zhao Kangming really just praises them when he says this.

Truth be told, although the Twinkles lost 0:2 on the road, their performance was actually not bad. Otherwise, it shouldn't just be two goals lost.

And considering that one of the two goals conceded was an own goal, it means that they could only lose by one goal......

"So don't take the result of this game too seriously. We knew from the moment we came here that it was impossible to beat our opponents here. Thankfully, the final was two legs and we had one more chance to go back to our home stadium and we didn't have the quality to play against them...... The question is, do you want to win? ”

He asked his players.

There was no answer in the locker room for a while.

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

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 abruptly called the captain's name.

Li Tielin raised his head in a bit of a panic and looked at his head coach through the shadows under the towel.

"Tear the white towel off your head, and show it to anyone who wears linen and filial piety!" Zhao Kangming's voice was full of expression. "I ask you, do you want to win?"

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

"Good. Qin Lin! Zhao Kangming called the name of the locker room boss again.

Qin Lin sat in his seat, his expression was calm, and his tone was flat: "No one enters the finals to win the runner-up, Director Zhao." I also want to win, whether I win or not. ”

Director Zhao looked at Hu Lai again, this time without waiting for him to be named, Hu Lai smiled flatteringly: "Director Zhao, you know my ......" Then he took a deep breath, and then shouted out with all his strength: "I want to win the championship!! ”

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

Seeing this, Hu Lai hurriedly pointed at him and said, "Zhao Gui look, Lao Wang doesn't want to win!" ”

Wang Guangwei was anxious: "Who the said I don't want to win!" I want to win too! ”

"It's too quiet to hear!" Hu Lai suddenly changed and became an assistant coach Chen Mo, "Talking so quietly, you still want to win the championship?!" Do it all over again! ”

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

In the laughter, Wang Guangwei looked hideous, gritted his teeth and roared: "Report to Director Zhao, I want to win!" I want to win! I! Think! Win!!! ”

Seeing that the two young people were so excited, and also infected the other people around him, Chen Xingyi simply stood up from his seat, raised his head with his chest up, and said loudly: "I want to win more than anyone else, Director Zhao!" I want to prove it to Golden Arrow! ”

After he finished speaking, there was no need for Zhao Kangming to continue watching, Zhang Qinghuan next to him took the initiative to stand up and said: "I also want to win, Director Zhao, I want to win the FA Cup!" ”

Just like this, one after another, all the shining 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 know that their opponent is strong and still win them 2:0 in the first round, they want to win.

Because the idea of winning a championship is an instinct as a professional footballer, and this instinct has nothing to do with the difference in quality.

But not everyone is like this, and some people will inevitably have a psychology of surrender after encountering a setback.

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, instead of relying on the tacit understanding of both sides, he had to confirm this to everyone.

Now he got the answer.

"Good!" Zhao Kangming was also infected by the atmosphere in the locker room unconsciously, and his voice increased. "I see! Since we're all in the same place, things are much easier. It's the coaching staff's business to figure out how to win, and it's your business to put your ideas into practice...... Generally, preparation for a match begins the week before the match. And now, our preparations for the second leg of the final start with the new post-match press conference! ”

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

"The strength of the Dashun Golden Arrows is really strong, and we have given our best in the competition...... But the results are also seen by everyone. I'm not going to criticize the players because they gave their best and we lost because we weren't as good as our opponents as a whole, which is normal and fair. Then I'll forget about the FA Cup and focus on playing well in the league and for us it's all about getting promoted this season...... Yes, I know there's a second leg in the final, but there's no point in talking about the second leg in front of a 0:2 scoreline. It's fantastic for us to be in the final...... We are a team in the first division, and Dashun Golden Arrows are ranked at the top of the Chinese Super League......"

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

※※※

“…… In the first leg of the just-concluded FA Cup final, the away star lost 0:2 to the Dashun Golden Arrows...... This result is not unexpected, and it can even be said that this score does not fully reflect the difference in strength between the two teams......"

"The Twinkling Star were very tenacious in the game, but despite this, they also conceded two goals, one of which was an own goal...... It is said that the head coach of Dashun Golden Arrows, Wang Xianke, was dissatisfied with the team's performance after returning to the locker room, believing that he had not completed the task by scoring only two goals...... Although it is only a rumor, journalists tend to believe this claim. Because before the game, everyone thought that for the Golden Arrows, the best result of this match was to end the suspense of the two-legged championship with one game. 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......"

Flashstar head coach Zhao Kangming admitted defeat after the game, believing that the team's next focus is to upgrade...... I think his mind has finally come to his senses, having put his personal grievances ahead of the team's fundamental interests and forcibly rotating them before the FA Cup semi-finals, which led to the team's away defeat to the Black Pole Star...... Looking back now, if there was no defeat in that game, now the shining star would be seven points ahead of the South China Sea team, ten points ahead of Ning Tian Yongan, as long as they win one more game, they can be promoted in advance, why let the fans of the shining star wait and worry? ”

"Declare in advance that I'm not a fan of Shining Star, I just think that Zhao Kangming was a little inflated before, and now it's okay to be woken up by Dashun Golden Arrow. A team that has surpassed the Central League dared not to be the main force without promotion, and the owner of the Shining Star Club is really tolerant, if I am the boss, Zhao Kangming will have to get out of class, it is too selfish to do so! But it's good that they lost to Dashun Golden Arrows away from home, otherwise I think Zhao Kangming may have to go all the way to the black ...... in the FA Cup."

After the game, not only the traditional media, but also on the Internet, there were also people who expressed their opinions on this match of the shining star.

As with these examples, most people felt that it was unwise for the stars to be obsessed with the FA Cup for some reason, so losing the first leg of this FA Cup final is not necessarily a bad thing for the stars.

In this way, the stars should be able to come to their senses and concentrate on preparing for the league and ensuring promotion.

As for the second leg of the FA Cup final...... Why are you still thinking about this? Can the Twinkles come back home from two goals down?

What do you think......

Of course, not everyone can accept this result calmly, especially the fans of the shining stars.

No matter how reasonable the commentators, media reporters and those on the Internet say, no matter how objective and neutral, fair to the public, and impartial...... Nor can it press the heads of the Shining Star fans and make them accept the result of this defeat calmly or even happily.

It's normal and reasonable to lose the game because of the lack of strength.

But it can't be said that the fans of the shining star have to clap their hands and laugh because of this: "Lose well, lose well, lose well, lose so much that we croak!" ”

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

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

The FA Cup championship is no play, but the Super League qualification must not fly!
