July 12, 2012.

The 2012/2013 Swiss Super League season kicks off tomorrow.

The opening match was the defending champion Basel against Servette.

……

At the end of the day's training, head coach Hawky . Vogel announced the league opener as Basel travelled to take on Servette's eighteen-man squad and starting line-up.

Salah clenched his fists slightly, looking at the manager Vogel expectantly, although he joined Basel in April last season, but at that time, he had already missed the league registration time, so he has only been training with the team and has not played official games for Basel.

……

Jiang Chenxi is also looking forward to it.

During the entire training camp, he can be said to be the hardest working and hardest player in the whole team of Basel, why do you work so hard?

Isn't it just to win the favor and recognition of head coach Vogel and get the chance to play?!

From the Italian Serie C to the Swiss Super League, this big stride has finally come to see the real thing.

……

Vogel first announced the starting eleven.

Jiang Chenxi's name was not in the starting list, nor was Salah's name.

In fact, after so many warm-up games, the main lineup in the mind of head coach Vogel has already surfaced, Jiang Chenxi and Salah, two twenty-year-old boys, obviously can't let Vogel rest assured to be in the starter.

……

What matters is the list of substitutes in the eighteen-man squad.

Salah's expression was solemn, and he took a deep breath, he was a little nervous.

Jiang Chenxi's expression was serious, and his eyes were expectant.

……

"Germano. Valati. ”

"Fabian. Sal. ”

"Kay. Bosel. ”

"Philips. Degen. ”

"Stokel."

"Muhammad. Salah. ”

Salah's name is on the list!

……

Salah breathed a sigh of relief and smiled happily, and then he glanced at Jiang Chenxi, his side was successfully selected, and he was now worried about whether his good friend could enter the competition squad.

Jiang Chenxi gave Salah a thumbs up to congratulate him, while listening carefully to the last name that the manager would pronounce.

"Jiang!" Hawky. Vogel finally pronounced Jiang Chenxi's name.

……

Jiang Chenxi clenched his fists and couldn't help shouting: "Yay! ”

Almost at the same time, Salah also shouted 'yes' excitedly.

I am glad that my good friend was selected.

The teammates in the locker room were stunned for a moment, and then they all laughed.

These two little guys are so happy just to be on the eighteen-man list.

It's so easy to satisfy.

……

In fact, judging from the performance of these two young people in the last two warm-up games, everyone is still optimistic that both of them have entered the 18-man squad.

Therefore, everyone is not particularly surprised that Jiang Chenxi and Salah can enter the squad for the competition.

……

Vogel was also amused, and the two young men looked scrappy. At the same time, they are good friends, and even the celebration actions are so similar.

Jiang Chenxi and Salah both smiled, and the teammates who watched this scene laughed again, and at the same time, they were inevitably a little touched in their hearts.

How long has it been since I've been so excited to just be in the squad?

It's good to be young.

……

After announcing the squad for the match against Servete, head coach Hawky Brown. Vogel and his assistant Mutrah. Yakin left with him, handing the dressing room back to the players.

……

Two hours later, on the third floor of the Baby's training base, in the head coach's office, Basel head coach Hawky. Vogel stood in front of the window.

From his location, he could see the No. 3 field of the training base.

There, Jiang Chenxi was training with Salah.

Salah suddenly picked up the ball and picked up the pass.

Jiang Chenxi turned back to catch it, and after he stopped the ball on his chest, he turned around, faced the direction of the goal, and then shot directly low, and the football flew into the net.

……

Vogel sighed a little, these two young men are really working hard.

He remembered two weeks ago his assistant Mutrah. What Yajin said to himself: Why don't you give Jiang Chenxi and Salah the opportunity to produce together?

For this suggestion, Volger has long considered it, but in his plan blueprint, Salah and Jiang Chenxi are both new signings, and both of them are rotating roles.

Therefore, in Vogel's plan, Salah and Jiang Chenxi are on standby on the bench at any time. In this case, it is less likely that the two will play together.

Therefore, in the first three warm-up games, Vogel did not consider the tactics of letting Jiang Chenxi and Salah play together.

It's just, Mutrah. Yakin's words made him seriously consider the possibility of the two being on the court at the same time.

……

Jiang Chenxi has a strong ability to grab points, but he does not have strong support from his teammates.

Salah can pass and shoot, but he has not been able to form chemistry with his teammates.

At that time, as he did today, he stood at the window of his office and saw the scene of Jiang Chenxi and Salah practicing together: the two young people were sweating like rain, training very hard and seriously.

……

Vogel just looked at it.

Watch Salah pass the ball.

watched Jiang Chenxi shoot and score.

Boring exercises over and over again.

Woger was touched by this, and finally began to seriously consider the tactical feasibility of the Chinese boy and the Egyptian boy playing together.

……

In the next two warm-up games, Jiang Chenxi and Salah started together once, and once they came on as substitutes at the same time.

What shocked Vogel was that the two boys really had a tacit understanding.

In the two warm-up games, Jiang Chenxi scored twice once, and once he made a stunner, and it was Salah who passed the ball for him.

This surprised Volger, who didn't expect such a tacit understanding and chemistry between Jiang Chenxi and Salah.

In his tactical conception, he finally began to have the tactical combination of these two young people playing together.

That's why Vogel ultimately decided to put both youngsters on the 18-man squad and put them on the bench.

……

At this moment, Voger looked inside the No. 3 training ground.

Under the street lamp, two young men were there.

A serious pass.

A serious shot.

Sweat falls on the lawn.

Boring and simple exercises.

The two of them are so serious.

It's as if it's not hard work and sweat, but great enjoyment.

He nodded secretly, these two boys are indeed good.

Perhaps, in tomorrow's game, you can consider letting the two of them come on as substitutes together, maybe there will be surprises.
