Chapter 128: The date of the play-offs
Since the nineties of the twentieth century, with the fall of the iron wall and the acceleration of global integration, the sport of football has spread to almost all developed, underdeveloped and developing countries in the world with unhindered radio waves.
It's an era of superstar blowouts, and the faces and names of stars are more recognizable than ever.
However, among the stars that seem to be the Milky Way in the sky, there has never been a controversial football king, which is really a very embarrassing thing.
Brazil won consecutive World Cup championships and achieved five-star honors, and their team of Ronaldo, Ronaldinho and Kaka had all the strength and record, but after all, they were unable to be crowned because of injuries and lack of highlights.
Later, the peerless duo of Cristiano Ronaldo and Leo Messi, after their competition, the data left behind can be described as unprecedented, but they have always been questioned because of the lack of the most important honor of the World Cup championship, and they can't afford the reputation of the king of the ball.
With the aging of the two heroes, the strength of the new generation of stars is getting closer and closer, and it is very difficult to appear a superstar, let alone a king.
Therefore, as far as Suzuki knows, there are only two football kings in the world, one is Pele, Brazil's three-time World Cup winner, and the other is Maradona, who will lead Argentina to the top tonight.
Hanamichi Sakuragi didn't understand the deeper meaning of this match, but just looked at it as a wonderful final, and watched it with relish.
Sakuragi sighed, "The soccer field is so big! There were so many people watching the game live, and so many more people watching it on TV! ”
Suzuki smiled and said, "Yes! Football has been the number one sport for decades, and its influence is only growing. ”
Sakuragi said on a whim: "If I go to play football, will it ......?"
As soon as Sakuragi started, Suzuki knew what he was thinking, and immediately interrupted: "The people of the United States don't watch football, they only watch basketball and rugby. In their vocabulary, football refers to rugby, not as it is understood in other regions. ”
"That's right." As soon as Sakuragi heard that football had little influence in the United States, he died down.
Even though he predicted the outcome of this game, Suzuki still watched the thrilling when he watched the game, and it was not until Maradona's last pass before the end that he swallowed back the heart that he had chosen in his throat.
When he was able to understand the ball, it was the golden generation of Chinese football who dreamed of breaking the Golden State, and he did not deliberately look back at the previous games, and remembered the victory and defeat of this game, thanks to the ascension of the new football king. And this is enough for him to make a lot of money.
As soon as the game was over, Suzuki turned off the TV and told Sakuragi to go to bed quickly, and he himself couldn't hold it anymore and hurried back to his room to sleep.
Thinking that the history he knew had not changed, and that a large sum of money was about to go into his pocket, Suzuki slept soundly, and the alarm clock rang for two minutes the next morning before he woke him from his slumber.
When he hurriedly stepped into the Xiangbei campus with bread in his mouth, he didn't know if it was because he didn't get enough sleep, Suzuki suddenly felt like a world away, and his life in the previous two days was like a dream.
As the saying goes, when the love field is frustrated, the casino is proud.
Now he is indeed proud of the casino, but he may not be disappointed in love.
Momoi May smiled like a flower, and at some point followed Suzuki into the shoe changing room, and greeted him affectionately: "Good morning, Mr. Suzuki." ”
Suzuki looked back and saluted.
Momoi said as if endorsing, "I will always keep the five-year commitment in my heart." Let time prove my will! ”
Suzuki laughed and said, "Who taught you the lines, it's too awkward!" Let's change it back to the way it was! ”
Momoi stuck out his tongue and said embarrassedly, "I also find it uncomfortable to talk like this!" Hum! Bad guy, go settle accounts with her! Goodbye, Mr. Suzuki. With that, she jumped and disappeared at the top of the stairs.
Suzuki was embarrassed to think that cold sweat was going to drip on his head, but when he touched his hand, it was dry.
At this time, a person next to him approached and asked, "Mr. Suzuki, what promise?" ”
Suzuki turned his head and saw that it was the "stupid" Aoki, who immediately changed his face and said sharply at him: "This has nothing to do with you!" If I'm still so nosy, I'm going to think about whether or not I'll be arranging for you to play in the next game. In the previous games, the young men of Maki and Yanagisawa played well. ”
When Aoki heard this, he immediately ran as far as he could.
Suzuki heard a snicker and turned his head to see that Imai and Endo were also busy scattering.
Back in his office, Suzuki immediately threw himself into work. He hasn't had time to correct the homework and test papers that Jin Yaori received last week!
Just after 9 o'clock, someone on the other end of the office shouted, "Suzuki-kun, there's a phone call, it's Mr. Nan Tara." ”
Suzuki counted the test papers on his desk, then walked over quickly, thanked Tsuchiya-sensei for calling him, then picked up the phone and said, "Moximoxi, I'm Suzuki." ”
Nan Tara's voice changed a little along the telephone line, but still with that bold and energetic momentum, he said, "Suzuki-kun, hello. The Akita Prefecture Prefectural Tournament has ended, and your team's opponent is Sanno High School, the runner-up of last year's Winter Cup, do you know this? ”
Suzuki immediately replied, "I already know." In fact, this weekend, I was in Akita for both days. ”
Minami Tarya said: "Now that you've watched their fights, what do you think of their approach, Suzuki-kun? ”
Suzuki sneered and said, "What else can you think!" Since they are going to fight, we will face it, even if there is a gap in strength, we will fight for a victory and come back!"
Nan Tara's hearty laughter could still be heard clearly through the microphone, and after a few laughs, he said to Suzuki, "I'm relieved to hear you say that." No matter what the result of this game is, as long as Xiangbei shows its strength and style, I will make a note for Xiangbei here! ”
Suzuki was a little puzzled and asked, "Nan Tara-kun, you have something to say!" Can you explain? ”
Nan Tarya replied: "That's right. This time, the new play-offs will be played as a mat race before the start of the national competition. The time has been set for the match, which is noon on August 1, after the swearing-in of the national teams. So, you have to prepare for it, don't race on an empty stomach! ”
Suzuki exclaimed, "It's a big scene to play alone in front of teams from all over the country!" If I hadn't prepared mentally beforehand, I'd be afraid that someone on the team would be nervous and wouldn't be able to move! Thank you Minami Tara-kun for informing me of this. ”
Nan Duoliang smiled: "No thanks. As long as Xiangbei plays at the level, it will be the greatest support for me. Okay, I've got something to do, goodbye. ”
Suzuki: "Goodbye. ”
