Almost everyone was kept in confinement, including those who did not participate in the fight, or even those who actively pulled the fight, with the exception of one person.

Zhang Jun was allowed to go to the team doctor's room for massage treatment, because he was hit in the left foot by Zheng Jun during the game, and he walked with a little lame. Qiu Suhui knew that Zhang Jun's left foot had been injured, and he didn't dare to take it lightly, so he immediately asked him to go to the team doctor for examination.

The result of the team doctor's diagnosis is that there is no major problem, but he has to recuperate for three days, and he is not allowed to do anything except receive massage treatment every day, and Zhang Jun will definitely not be able to play in the last warm-up game the day after tomorrow.

This really made Qiu Suhui angry, if Zhang Jun missed the World Cup due to injury, even a hundred Zheng Jun would not be enough to blame. Of course, he forgot that it was his own idea that caused Zhang Jun to be injured. And even if he knew now, it wasn't the time to blame himself.

Compared with Qiu Suhui's inner anxiety, after knowing that he was fine, Zhang Jun seemed very optimistic, and after the massage, he also made a phone call to Sophie.

He knew that Sophie was on the sidelines today, and he must have been frightened by the appearance of his injury and falling to the ground, so he had to call her quickly, otherwise she would not have to die in a hurry!

After the phone was connected, Sophie was really anxious. She didn't show it in front of Li Yan before, but as soon as she saw that it was Zhang Jun's phone, she walked quickly to the darkroom, and after connecting the phone, she was the first to ask: "How is it?" Is there anything wrong with the left foot? ”

Zhang Jun only felt a warmth in his heart, and he smiled: "It's nothing, the team doctor just let me rest for three days and don't participate in any training." He said that I was too tired some time ago and my ankles were overloaded, and now as long as I have a good rest, combined with massage treatment, there is no big problem. ”

"It's not swollen, is it? No bruising, right? Does it hurt? Sophie asked, still uneasy.

"No, nothing, hehe." Zhang Jun smiled, "There is no problem with walking now, but you can't push too hard." ”

"That's good." Sophie breathed a sigh of relief, and was in the mood to ask about other things. "What's going on with this fight? I think it's very sudden, I know there are conflicts in the team, but it shouldn't be to the point where I can fight in front of reporters, right? They didn't think about how bad the impact would be after this incident was exposed by the media. ”

Zhang Jun smiled bitterly: "Who knows what everyone thinks in their hearts?" In fact, he knew that there were two fires that were lit at one point, Xiang Tao and Klu, and it was strange not to fight. But it's better not to talk about this kind of internal team affairs, Sophie is a journalist, this profession is too sensitive.

Sophie also realizes that she is suffering from an occupational illness and asks questions that should not be asked in this situation.

Then the two just asked each other about the situation, and then said goodbye. Didn't even say a sweet word. In the process of the two falling in love, they really rarely say anything sweet, and their love is really dull. But the plain is bland, but it's not boring at all, and it doesn't make people feel bored.

Zhang Jun, who returned to the room, saw that Yang Pan was on the phone, and when he looked at his demeanor, he knew that he was calling Yilan. He smiled, no matter what the little couple said, he just lay down on the bed, Qiu Zhiguan confinement had little effect on him and Yang Pan, he could just take advantage of this opportunity to have a good rest, and Yang Pan could read books and listen to music.

Yang Pan said a few more words, hung up the phone and asked Zhang Jun: "How is the left foot?" ”

Zhang Jun pillowed his hands and looked at the ceiling, he raised his left foot: "The team doctor said it's okay, let me rest for three days, and don't do anything except go to them for a massage every day." ”

"Then aren't you going to miss the warm-up game the day after tomorrow?"

"yes, I missed it."

Yang Pan looked at Zhang Jun: "It's okay, who knows what chaos will happen when the situation is now." You're not just out of the way, and the less these things have to do with you, the better. ”

"It's messy enough." Zhang Jun was still staring at the ceiling, "I'm afraid this kind of preparation is the only one in the top 32, and I actually fight internally during the training camp, which feels really amateurish." I don't know what the country will be like after the media is exposed. I just made a phone call to Sophie, and even she was very concerned about this, so you can imagine the reaction of other reporters. ”

"What else? The scolding was overwhelming, coupled with more pessimism, thinking that the Chinese team had no future this time, and they went home after the group stage. I can't figure out how Qiu Zhi is going to clean up this mess. Yang Pan sat on the edge of the bed and muttered. Kaka knows the situation on our side, and I'm afraid his mouth is going to smile crookedly. ”

※※※

Hu Li was sitting in Qiu Suhui's room, and Qiu Suhui had called him here. He thought that Xiao Qiu called him here to discuss how to clean up the mess, but ...... Qiu Suhui told him just to watch a movie, and it was a movie he had seen two months ago.

"Haven't we seen this?" Hu Li pointed strangely at Tony on the screen; Coach D'Amato asked Qiu Suhui.

"Hehe, watch it again, especially his speech before the last battle. I think that's the essence of the whole film. Qiu Suhui used "fast forward" to go directly to the part before the last battle.

"But does that have anything to do with the situation we're facing now?"

"Of course there is, but for the sake of suspense, I can't tell you right now, hehe." Qiu Suhui smiled proudly.

During the conflict in the morning, his face was as cold as frost, but in the afternoon, he smiled and beckoned himself to watch the movie, and his face became ......

Hu Li had no problem with Qiu Suhui, so he could only watch it hard, but he was always thinking about how to solve this contradiction in his mind, and he didn't read the plot of the movie at all, and naturally he didn't see what role that speech would play in solving the current team conflict.

※※※

Sophie was developing film in a darkroom converted from a bathroom, while Li Yan was outside writing today's manuscript on her laptop. There is really enough material today, and he is not worried about writing now, but only about how to best organize these things.

The group fight in the morning made many reporters present stunned, but Li Yan was the only one who didn't realize how incredible and unreasonable it was. In his opinion, Qiu Suhui was originally a careerist with a surname, and it was not surprising what kind of move he made. In the same way, there is nothing that the young players who have been deeply branded by his style cannot do.

Isn't that too commonplace to fight? It is said that Xiang Tao caused a group fight on the first day of entering the National Olympics, and Qiu Suhui also dealt with it in a low-key manner and saved Xiang Tao. Now the national team has another fire yao bucket Crewe; Plum. In Li Yan's eyes, Crewe is a person who does not have much sense of belonging, no sense of national honor, and no overall view, and his impulsive and irritable surname makes him have a bad relationship with fans at Chelsea, and it is natural that he will have conflicts with those "old guys" who like to rank according to seniority when he arrives in the national team.

Xiang Tao, Crewe, and Anke are not fuel-efficient lamps, coupled with the factional disputes between the new and old players in the team, the selfish abacus, a head coach with a surname and a group of players with a surname, it is not normal for them to get together or do something.

Compared with any previous national team, this is indeed very unreasonable now, and who has ever seen a fight scandal before the World Cup? This is so illogical! It shouldn't be! The manager is too naïve! What a fool! It's so incompetent!

I believe that tomorrow many media will use this kind of argument to criticize Qiu Suhui.

Although he is not on the right path with Qiu Suhui, Li Yan wants to show his support this time. With what he knows about the manager, he thinks some things are a bit too coincidental. After being indifferent to reporters for a long time, isn't it strange that all reporters are suddenly given the green light to enter the venue and watch a teaching competition throughout the whole process? You must know that in the first two warm-up games, he did not put a reporter in.

Then when all the reporters arrived, a teaching game was played like the battle of the century, the national derby, and it was very popular, and he didn't adjust it. Then the two sides moved more and more, and it was a logical conflict between the two, the two escalated into multiple people, and finally evolved into a chaotic group fight.

Li Yan contacted it, and always felt that this conflict and the reporter's testimony were all arranged by Qiu Suhui. It's just that...... Zhang Jun's accidental injury must not have been thought of, was it because there were too many troubles recently, which made him a little restless? I forgot that Zhang Jun had injured his left foot.

All this was planned by him, but Li Yan always felt that the current result had exceeded Qiu Suhui's original expectations, especially since Zhang Jun's injury was purely an accident. No one thought of it beforehand. Now that Zhang Jun is injured and his condition is unknown - he doesn't know that Zhang Jun is all right - Qiu Suhui is facing a group of players who hate each other because of the fight, what can he do to unite them during the World Cup?

“…… Many believe that the Chinese team's second trip to the World Cup was overshadowed by this brawl. But I personally think it's not a good thing. Instead of pressing the contradiction all the time and becoming a time bomb in the team, I don't know when it will break out in the World Cup, it is better to expose it in advance, and now there are about ten days before the World Cup, and Qiu Suhui and his national team still have time. Thinking about how he once trained a group of young people who didn't even have much experience in the A-League into a national Olympic team that could break into the quarterfinals of the Olympic Games in just three months, I think we should all be more tolerant, believe in him, believe in the national team. ”

※※※

In the subsequent training, Zhang Jun really did not appear on the training ground, and some reporters were very worried about asking around, and finally breathed a sigh of relief when they learned that there was no major problem. In the eyes of more and more people, no matter which team Zhang Jun plays in, no matter whether he leaves Milan or not, but at least in the Chinese team, he is a well-deserved No.1 on the front line, and no one can replace him. Uncle "Demon Knife" is too old, and it's okay to play as a substitute. Wu Shangshan, who plays in the league, has too little experience and little experience, and he has no problem playing tailwind, but once the team is in adversity, he often follows the dumb fire. Li Jie, who plays football in China, has distinctive characteristics, that is, high-altitude bombing, and some people even hail him as "Su Maozhen's second", but his foot skills are far behind, and he also faces the problem of lack of experience.

Only Zhang Jun, who is rich in experience, comprehensive in technology, and young and strong, has that ability, no matter how good or bad the Chinese team is, he can always play steadily.

The Chinese team can do without Zheng Jun and without Crewe; Li, not even Yang Pan, but there are three people who are absolutely indispensable, Zhang Jun, Li Yongle, An Ke, these three people form the central axis of the Chinese team, they are the backbone of the Chinese team, and their performance is directly related to the performance of the whole team.

Li Yongle and An Ke rarely make people worry about them, only Zhang Jun, because he was seriously injured once, so he always makes people worry. There are even many fans who will be shocked as soon as they see his left foot violated, thinking of the keywords "retired", "finished" and "abolished".

In fact, now Zhang Jun only often stays in the massage room, receiving massages while chatting with the team doctors to pass the time.

When Yang Pan returned to the room like a chicken in soup by the rain, he was already lying comfortably on the bed reading a book.

"Tsk, it's good to be injured, you don't have to be outside in the rain and wind." Yang Pan said to Zhang Jun while wiping his hair with a dry towel.

Zhang Jun threw the book aside and stretched: "It's also boring to rest for too long." It's raining outside? ”

Yang Pan nodded: "It's not big, but it's always non-stop, it's very annoying." ”

"Aren't you going to play in the rain tomorrow?" Zhang Jun turned his head to look out the window, and sure enough, there was a piece of [***] everywhere he looked. I was fascinated by the book just now, and I didn't notice what was happening outside.

"I don't know, maybe. But even if the weather is good, I can watch the game enough. The atmosphere in today's training was very wrong, everyone looked at each other unpleasantly, and once the action was too big in the scramble, which caused another quarrel. ”

"Then Qiu Zhi doesn't mean anything?"

"He just blew the whistle to stop training, and then punished the two people who caused the conflict to run laps -- 10 kilometers, and I guess they are still running."

"It's as simple as that?" Zhang Jun was very strange, "After the fight, he was just confined, neither punished nor criticized, just like he was fine, and continued training the next day." What do you think Qiu Zhi is thinking? ”

Yang Pan shook his head, "Who knows." Anyway, I think we can't just look at the surface for Qiu Zhi. Tomorrow's game, maybe he wants us to lose more than we win. ”

Zhang Jun was even more strange: "How come? ”

Yang Pan smiled: "You'll know when the time comes." He picked up a change of clothes and went to take a shower. Zhang Jun turned his head to look at the dripping rain outside the window, thoughtful.

※※※

The warm-up match on the second day was indeed held in the rain, and Qiu Suhui still allowed all reporters to watch the whole process, regardless of whether the team played well or badly, these reporters will be witnesses and witnesses.

Zhang Jun didn't even go to this game, he was in his room, sitting alone by the window reading a book, the room was a little dark, so he turned on the table lamp, and did not turn on the strongest light, the dim light gave people a feeling of isolation.

That's how Zhang Jun feels now.

Zhang Lintao's novel, which had been serialized on the Internet for two years intermittently, was finally successfully published, and he sent copies to Zhang Jun, Li Yongle, Yang Pan, and An Ke, who had been reading this novel recently.

The name is really what Zhang Lintao said to him - "Do you care if I play football", telling the story of their high school, of course, the protagonist in it is not Zhang Jun, but Li Yongle, Zhang Jun is portrayed as one of Li Yongle's main opponents. In order to avoid some unnecessary troubles, all the characters in the novel use pseudonyms except for Zhang Lintao himself, but those details and those games will still make those who have experienced it feel familiar and intimate.

This is a simple novel that can't be simpler anymore, without much dramatic conflict, but it makes Zhang Jun miss it very much. Because reading this book made him go back to the past, no matter what the scenery is now, he always feels that the three years of high school are the best time of his life.

The weather outside was very gloomy, and the orange-yellow light of the table lamp sprinkled on the pager, and Zhang Jun felt that the events in the novel were a twilight that evoked countless fond memories for him.

Flying dust, silhouette-like figures, happy laughter and cheers, and that attempted kiss......

※※※

The result of the game was Yang Pan who came back to tell Zhang Jun.

As Yang Pan expected, the Chinese team "unexpectedly" lost to a second division team in the Netherlands. The team's performance is also very poor, it can't cooperate, there are always inexplicable mistakes, and some people even can't work.

Zhang Jun was speechless, and it seemed that the situation was worse than he imagined.

Qiu Suhui's face was not good from beginning to end, and by the end of the game, it was even more cloudy like the weather in the Netherlands. The Chinese team lost 0-2 to a Dutch league second division team, which was a real shame, and even more humiliating was what the players showed on the pitch.

No fighting spirit, no aggressiveness, no team spirit. With such a three-nil team, how many expectations do you expect them to withstand in the World Cup?

The fight incident has already made domestic fans scold the quality of the national team, and now if you see the relevant reports of the game, I am afraid that it is sad more than dead, and even scolding is a waste of saliva and a waste of physical strength.

Yang Pan also told Zhang Jun that after the game, they waited in the locker room for more than half an hour and Qiu Zhi did not show up, and then Coach Hu brought them back, and Qiu Zhi was not seen in the car when he came back, and according to Sophie, Qiu Zhi did not go to the post-game press conference, so where did he go?

※※※

The next day of training, Zhang Jun was still not allowed to go to the training ground, Qiu Suhui also unexpectedly did not appear at the training ground, and all the training was led by Hu Li.

On this day, the national football players, who have always been arrogant and arrogant, have low eyes and low hands, and are empty-eyed, felt a crisis and panic for the first time since the conflict. The absence of the manager is certainly not a coincidence, which shows that everyone knows what the problem is. And now the performance of reporters is also obviously cold, and few people take the initiative to ask for an interview. They would rather go to the massage room to block Zhang Jun than waste the layout to those "three no" players.

Not to mention the fans, they didn't see a single fan on the sidelines of the training ground today, but it used to be no less than 30 a day.

Some of his teammates, through friends and family, have known the reaction at home. Needless to say, there are many fans on the Internet who expressed their disappointment with this team in reality, thinking that it is a shame for such a national team to participate in the World Cup, and it is a shame for China to let them represent China, they are not worthy of being called international players at all, they are not worthy of being called professional players, and the national team is simply disbanded.

In this conflict, there was not much condemnation of Qiu Suhui, almost all of them were aimed at those "three no" players.

The storm of anger in China was felt by all the internationals in the Netherlands.

No matter how much they care about commercial value, sponsorship contracts, tournament bonuses, and high-paying contract renewals...... At some point, they also had to let the stuff get out of the way. The World Cup is a battlefield of national honor, and it is no longer just a football game. The Chinese have a strong patriotic complex and national self-esteem, and they can allow you to lose, but they must not allow you to lose your pocket, lose humiliatingly, surrender before the battle starts, give up on yourself, break the jar and break it.

It's the same old saying: are they going to die standing or live on their knees? No, maybe for the Chinese team, it should be "going to die standing or kneeling".

They certainly wouldn't choose the latter, because anyone in their sanity would find it a shame.

Of course, there are still many shameless people in this world, and they don't care about national honor and national self-esteem. Fortunately, these international players are not too shameless, and there is still a little bit of shame, because they are also beginning to feel a little uneasy in the face of this situation, which is exactly what Qiu Suhui wants to grasp.

He wants to amplify the deep anxiety of the players, make them worry about their future, and then obediently listen to him. He will let those people know that only he can make them return home like warriors and not deserters.

This deliberate absence from training is one way to go, and no one knows where the manager is going at such a critical moment, and with that comes a lot of speculation, and there's always a fear of what they don't know, because they often don't know what is going to turn out of something that's already bad.

※※※

When Qiu Suhui appeared in front of everyone again, he still didn't give anyone a good look, including Hu Li, who knew that he was in the play.

The players didn't know, so they were even more scared.

Qiu Suhui didn't arrange training, he just asked everyone to go to the conference room. Four days after the conflict took place, he finally intended to resolve it.

In the conference room, when everyone had arrived, Qiu Suhui threw a thick stack of newspapers and magazines on the table with a blushing face, and the heavy newspaper made a muffled sound.

"See for yourselves, these are the newspapers and magazines that are published in the country these days. See for yourselves what is written on it. ”

They don't have to look closely, they just need to glance at it, and the headlines on the front page are very eye-catching.

"The most humiliating Chinese team in history!"

"Key words for preparation: brawl, conflict."

"What else can we expect from a team like this?"

"Fan survey: more than half of people are not optimistic about the future of the team, and 5% of fans even suggested disbanding the national team and replacing the North Korean team."

"The Chinese team self-destroyed the Great Wall, and many foreign media have determined that they will go home early."

"No fighting spirit, no enterprising, no team spirit, ban the three-no national team!"

"There was a brawl on the training ground, and the foreign reporter even said that he couldn't understand it."

"They are not qualified to represent China!"

……

These words swept through their hearts like a storm, as long as they were not stupid, they all knew that because of their poor performance, they had pierced the hearts of countless tolerant fans in China, and they had betrayed their relatives.

"This morning's training assignment - read the newspaper, everybody has to read it." Qiu Suhui said with a blushing face, "Turn off the phone or something for me, and it won't work if you turn it to vibrate." ”

Someone moved his lips, as if he had something to say but did not dare to say it. Then everyone took out their mobile phones and turned them off directly.

"Start watching now!" He shouted, but there was no reaction from everyone, he took out the whistle from his pocket, put it in his mouth and blew hard, and the training began!

The team members woke up like a dream and picked up the newspaper in front of them and buried their heads in reading it. Qiu Suhui didn't go away, just sat at the front and watched the players below, he was here to supervise, to make sure they were reading the newspaper, not chatting and texting.

For a while, there was no sound in the room except for the occasional clatter from the newspaper, which should have been the quietest and most honest since the national team gathering.

Zhang Jun was also watching, and he also saw the photo taken by Sophie, which was the moment when Crewe pinched Zhou Tao's neck, and the hatred of the two of them was really timely and accurate. They all glared angrily, and the hot breath exhaled from their noses could spray on each other's faces, Crewe glared at him, and Zhou Tao was pinched and blushed.

In this way, it was Crewe who took advantage of it at the time.

Those news reports only narrated what happened, but the commentators' articles and netizen comments in the later editions were very unkind, and words with strong personal emotional tendencies Zhang Jun can be seen everywhere.

In the past, Zhang Jun always believed that there were always inaccuracies and exaggerations in the reports of domestic sports media, but this time, Zhang Jun believes that the media did not exaggerate. Because if he were just a fan, he would have used a more vicious tone and vocabulary than the media.

In the preparation before the World Cup, other teams are having a headache for their opponents, but the Chinese team is worried about their own family affairs, Zhang Junzhen doesn't know how they will perform in this World Cup and how far they can go.

Until lunch, Qiu Suhui didn't let the players do anything else, read a newspaper, read other newspapers and magazines, and then went to eat together.

During the meal, there was a lot less loud noise and chatting with the surname, and everyone was immersed in eating, looking preoccupied.

Qiu Suhui didn't know what they were thinking, but he knew that his plan had initially succeeded, and the players were only speculating about the domestic situation before, but now he let them see it clearly. No matter how much they look into it, there will always be something in their minds.

After eating, Qiu Suhui said to the team members: "Take a one-hour lunch break, go to the conference room at two o'clock in the afternoon, and we will continue." ”

Everyone went back to their rooms to rest in confusion, just let everyone read the newspaper, didn't say anything, and then let them come again in the afternoon, did this day's training time be delayed like this?

What the hell was Qiu Zhi thinking? What the hell is he going to do? Nobody knows.

※※※

After the afternoon lunch break, everyone gathered in the conference room again, and the newspapers they had read in the morning were still scattered on the table, and the headlines on the front page were still glaring.

But Qiu Suhui didn't ask everyone to continue reading the newspaper, but turned on the projector: "Let's watch a movie in the afternoon." He raised the remote control in his hand.

Watching a movie?!

Players, look at me, I look at you, I don't know what Qiu Zhi means, and now they themselves know that there is no unity in the team, so can everyone watch a movie together solve this problem?

Qiu Suhui ignored everyone's surprised gazes, and he pressed the play button.

Li Yongle and Yang Pan were surprised to find that this was the "AnygivenSunday" that Qiu Zhi borrowed from Li Yongle.

"This movie is about American football, which is football. But you don't have to know rugby to watch it, everybody watch it for me. After speaking, Qiu Suhui turned off all the lights in the conference room, closed the curtains, and then sat at the back, quietly waiting for the movie to start.

It's a star-studded film from the director to the actors, and it's also a very hot-blooded, authentic sports movie.

The film is about a team that has won many championships in the league, but has recently been troubled internally and externally, the Sharks. A hilarious beginning, in a league game, they first lost the captain, quarterback Jack; Wayne Looney, and then the first backup quarterback, were knocked off the court as soon as they were substituted.

At that time, the team doctor had just lifted the captain into the small ambulance when he heard another injury, and he was surprised: "Did he fall off the bench?" ”

The broadcaster even brought out history to illustrate how funny this scene was: "Two quarterbacks in a row have gone down with injuries, which I haven't seen since 1988. Oh, maybe 1978. ”

Tony, the protagonist of the movie; Coach D'Amato angrily threw the headset on the ground, followed by Willy, the second substitute and last quarterback who was substituted on the court; Biman was so nervous as soon as he got on the stage that he threw up in front of the TV broadcast and the live audience.

Someone let out a slight laugh when they saw this.

Co Willy; Biman came forward in the second half with a long ball to put his team ahead of the scores. I just thought that at the last moment, the team had a disagreement on whether to defend or attack, and the opponent seized the opportunity to turn defeat into victory. And the Sharks also ushered in their four-game losing streak. This is a big blow to a team that has the championship as its goal.

The quarterback in football is a bit like the midfield core in football, the initiator of the attack, the brain on the court, the tactical core of the team, and requires excellent long passing skills, can find the best passing route in a complicated situation, kill with one hit, and if necessary, score a touchdown himself.

Willie; Beyman, a 26-year-old talent, was given the opportunity to play by an unexpected appearance, and he played well in the next few games, helping the team to a winning streak and a playoff run with two quarterbacks out due to injury. However, vomiting has also become his trademark, and every time he vomits, his opponent will definitely be unlucky.

The team is making its way to the playoffs, but there are also many problems. Christina, the team's beautiful young female owner, is hell-bent on selling the team and moving to Los Angeles to build a new team, and often interferes with the head coach's work, even though D'Amato is his "Uncle Tony".

The team's main defensive player, "Shark", suffered a concussion, but the respected veteran doctor tampered with the diagnosis under the threat of Christina, allowing him to continue to work for the team, even if he would die on the pitch one day.

Journalists, who have always been prejudiced against Damato, are always trying to ridicule Damato, creating contradictions and news.

Julian, the team's leading scorer; Washington complained to D'Amato that Willie never passed the ball to him. He has a contract with a sponsor that he can get 10 million dollars if he runs 2,000 yards with the ball. But Willy doesn't pass the ball to him, he can't get the ball and can't count it. He wanted D'Amato to give him an explanation, but the young assistant coach supported Willy, and the two got into an argument in D'Amato's office, much to Damato's headache.

Willy, a good black guy who is good; Beeman, who has become a star due to his continuous outstanding performances, has appeared on TV talk shows, appeared on magazine covers, shot commercials, released rap records, attended celebrity dinners, and even took an interest in his boss Christina, so he broke up with his black girlfriend who had been dating for many years. The sudden success made him lose himself, and he always thought that the team won the game because he was the only one, and the other teammates, especially the defenders, were of little use.

Captain Jack at the same time; Looney is actively preparing for his comeback, and he feels threatened by Willy, but he will still help Willy in many places, reminding him of his responsibilities as a quarterback and building relationships with his teammates.

"You should try to say the line 'everybody is going to be a star.'" Rooney's wife complained to her husband.

Cloney looked at Willy, who was surrounded by small children, and shrugged: "No, sacrifice, teamwork, that's all that matters." ”

Willie didn't grasp the captain's intentions.

"It's not the most important thing to lead a team to win, it's important that you make your teammates believe in you and follow you willingly."

"Hey, Captain, how old are you?" This is Willie; Beeman's answer.

He's really good as a player, but he's not qualified enough to lead a quarterback, why? Because he was just playing on his own and never thought about the feelings of his teammates. Now some people listen to him, that's because to win, once you lose the game, the conflict will explode.

Realizing the problem, D'Amato called Willy to his house for dinner, only to have a big fight between the two. Because D'Amato always wants Willy to follow his example, to learn from Captain Rooney, and to know how to respect those veteran players. Willy laughed at D'Amato for being an old stubborn, and it was precisely because he always clung to the past that he was in such a miserable state, his wife divorced him, and the children followed their mother to the West.

"Listen, boy. I want you to listen carefully, because one day you will find that this is the truest truth you have ever heard. Rugby, rugby is about not just winning, because you are part of the whole, whether you are a coach or a star player, a hundred great athletes they are, and you are now. I hope you cherish them well, because if you lose them, you will never come back. D'Amato admonished Willy.

But Willie didn't listen at all. He scratched Damato hard, in short, it was someone else's fault, he sacrificed too much, but no one gave him a chance to prove himself, and now he finally played it, but he was put back on the bench by Damato, because Captain Rooney, who returned from injury in the finals, will be the starter.

"Go on, Willy. You blame others, but you never mention yourself. You see, that's what a leader has to do, sacrifice, he needs to sacrifice some playing time because he's leading the team by example, not fear or self-pity. ”

This angered Willy, who stood up and pointed to D'Amato's nose and asked, "Who do you think you're talking to?" I'm halfway through my playing career, and now you want me to be a cold bench and sacrifice for the glory of Captain Rooney, fuck you coach! I don't believe in your reasoning, because you're scared, old fellow, I'm afraid that you will win in my way, so won't your faith in this life be over? Willie turned to leave.

D'Amato stood up and chased after him: "You're not a braggart perimeter player, or receiver, or even Julian; Washington! You're a deadly quarterback! Do you know what that means? That's the center of gravity for the whole team, boy! It is also the target of being scolded after losing, the target of everyone's attention, their leader, they will support you when they understand, they are willing to fight for you, and even break the bridge of the nose, ribs, and even the foot and neck. They believe in you, and you give them faith. That's what a ...... Quarterback. ”

“…… Whatever you want, I'm 'Steamer' Willie who plays my own way whenever I have the opportunity to play. I don't care, when the time comes, my worth will skyrocket, I don't care if you sell me or exchange me, where I will be worth ten times more than here! Willie turned and walked away, ignoring the manager.

"You're very, very young." D'Amato looked at Willy's back and muttered to himself, "Really, very fucking...... Stupid! ”

In the evening, Willy went to a party held by the "Sharks" at his home, and Willy taunted his teammates to his face, saying that if we could have defended better, we would have been number one in the league by now.

This angered "Shark", who used a chainsaw to cut Willy's new car in two, marking their break. "Find a taxi! Get out of my house! ”

To be sure, Willy is a genius who is adept at making his own judgment on the pitch and changing plans without his own hacks, while his own improvised tactics have never helped his team win.

But he doesn't make a leader, he's not the same as Captain Rooney. This great star captain infects everyone with his charisma, whether it is heaven or hell, they are willing to follow him through it. "Shark" even yelled at Rooney during training: "Come on, man! With me, they can't hit you! But no one had ever said that to Willy.

While Willie was busy shooting commercials and releasing records, Rooney was still working in his gym late every night to get back on the pitch when the team needed him.

Willy only has to think about himself, while D'Amatto and Rooney have to think about everyone. But if Willie wants to be a truly qualified quarterback, he must learn to think for others, even at the expense of himself if necessary.

As a result, in the game that followed, the Sharks were slaughtered by their opponents on their home court. In a pouring rain, no one was willing to block the opposing team for Willy, and he was knocked to the ground again and again by his opponents, losing the ball. No one went up to help, everyone watched from the sidelines. After the game, a frustrated Willy and his teammates had a brawl in the locker room, and D'Amato rushed in and scolded everyone: "I've been a coach for 30 years!" It's the first time I've seen such a game, and you've embarrassed yourself! I'm ashamed to be your coach today! Think for yourselves! ”

The loss will require the team to advance to the championship finals in Texas four weeks later and defeat the Cavaliers there for a chance of reaching the finals in Minnesota. This is the last chance for the divided players to prove themselves.

D'Amato's troubles are far from over, after the old team doctor's behavior of replacing the "shark" X-ray was exposed, the young team doctor diagnosed the "shark" with a tooth-like crack in the skull, and now the hand-eye coordination has been greatly weakened, if it is hit again, it is likely to lead to paralysis, stroke, vegetative state, and even sudden death. However, "The Shark" insisted on playing in the game, as he was only one tackle away from adding three tackles and getting a bonus of 1 million, which he needed to support his wife and four children.

In the end, D'Amato thought about it for a long time and agreed to the request of "Shark".

After dealing with the "shark" matter here, on the other side, he went to the training ground, quarreled with the old team doctor in front of many reporters, and personally fired the team doctor who had followed him for 30 years. And in a bad mood, he also pushed the reporter who came to interview, causing the other party's forehead to crack.

Boss Christina also came looking for trouble, as D'Amato insisted on starting Captain Rooney against Texas instead of Willy, as Christina and sponsors had hoped; Billman. During the altercation, D'Amato said he would definitely trade Willy at the end of the season because he had made a mess of the whole team.

Willy, for his part, is also reflecting on himself, and he and his ex-girlfriend are getting back together. When he was in the sauna, he happened to meet the "shark" who had fallen out with him before.

At this time, "Shark" already knew that he was in danger when he played, and he wanted to warn Willy: "You want to be the who leads the team, but are they willing?" I tell you, all the successful stars, every Barry; Sanders, every Jerry; Rice, hundreds of who have never heard of it. Of course, the competition teaches you to be on your toes, to learn to talk, but what else is there? Suddenly penniless, no woman, no applause, hum, the dream was shattered. This is what I want to tell you, when a man, when a man is looking back on the past, he should be proud of his life, and have few regrets, not only those years when he was in battle, but also remember the glorious moments. You must understand in your heart that if you can't do it, you are not a man, you can only be a ...... Gangsters. ”

Willy put a towel over his head and ignored "Shark", but this time he really listened.

The final battle in the film is the essence of the whole film, and the impromptu speech of Damato before the game is the essence of the essence, he used an impassioned speech to unite everyone, inspire fighting spirit, and become a team with strong combat effectiveness.

Qiu Suhui could see that many players were very excited when they saw this paragraph.

"I really don't know what I'm supposed to say, really. Three minutes later, the biggest game of our career will begin. Today is a matter of life and death for us, and we can either unite and fight or fall apart. Inch by inch, ball by ball, until we're done.

We are in hell right now, gentlemen, believe me. We can be kicked out here, or we can give it our all and go to glory. We can crawl out of hell, inch by inch. And now I can't climb for you.

In fact, obviously, I'm so old, and when I see a group of young people, I wonder, am I making the mistake that a middle-aged man might make, right? I, uh, spent all the money, believe it or not. Lately I can't even stand myself in the mirror.

When you get older, everything will be gone. Actually, that's part of life. But it is only when you begin to lose that you will understand that you will find that life is also made up of many inches, and the same is true of rugby. Because whether it's life, or rugby, there's very little room for you to make mistakes.

I mean, half a step earlier, or half a step late, doesn't get the point. Half a second earlier or half a second late, you won't receive the ball.

Every inch we need is on our side, in every opportunity on the field, in that every second.

Our whole team fights for this inch, and the whole team is ready to die for this inch, and we all strive for this inch, because we all know that adding up every inch is the watershed between winners and losers! It's the watershed between life and death! I tell you, in any battle, it is always the one who is not afraid of death who wins that inch!

I also know that I can still live that life full of meaning, because I am still willing to fight for that inch at the last minute. Because that's life, that's the six inches in front of you.

Now I can't make you fight, you have to look at your comrades, look at their eyes, because you comrades, theirs, their eyes are watching you! I am willing to fight with you, to fight for every inch of comrades. You will see a comrade who is willing to sacrifice himself for you and for the team. Because he knows that you will do the same for him when necessary!

That's team spirit, gentlemen!

And whether we work together or let others slaughter one by one, this is rugby!

That's all, now, what should you do? I don't think I'm going to need to say anything more as an old man. ”

The players of the Sharks team howled and rushed out of the locker room, in fact, not to mention the Sharks, even the Chinese team players sitting in the conference room also had such an impulse, wanting to find an opponent who defeated them 2:0 to play again, this time they must beat them out of the way.

※※※

When the opposing teammates rushed towards him, the teammates around him always rushed up desperately, using their bodies to stop the opponent, so that the captain could send a deadly long pass without interference. And when the team fell too behind, he carried the ball himself, ran half the court, shook off the defenders, faced the collision of two opponents on the baseline, risked being knocked on and off the court, and scored on the ground.

The on-site narrator couldn't help but sigh: "There is only one sentence that can describe Jack; Captain Rooney: A tough guy who never looks down! ”

Willie; Beemann couldn't help but cheer for the captain off the pitch, and he learned more in this half than he did all the time combined.

By halftime, the Sharks were still behind, and owner Christina rushed into the locker room despite the dissuasion of her assistants, and scolded D'Amato in front of all the players, saying that captain Rooney was finished and wanted him to send Willy. The two had a heated argument, and in the end, it was Willy himself who stepped up and explained that the coach had let him play.

In the second half, the two sides attacked and defended each other, and the battle was fierce, and one player on the other side was gouged out in the right eye in a fierce scramble!

"The Sharks" earned him a million dollars in a desperate interception and helped the team regain 10 yards of offense, which meant that with fifteen seconds left in the game, the Sharks had what could be their last chance to attack, and they were only four points behind the Cavaliers, as long as they seized the opportunity and scored a touchdown, they could turn defeat into victory and advance to the Finals. Just as everyone was cheering for him, he fell into shock.

Just when everyone was worried about him, he woke up in a daze. Watching him being carried down on a stretcher, his wife in the stands also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hey, be careful, I'm worth a million now." In this way, he did not forget to joke, waving his hand on the stretcher and greeting the audience.

There was a round of applause in the stands.

Outside of the movie, the Chinese internationals also felt what it means to be manly, compared with their previous cowardly performance, blushing and not blushing.

※※※

At the same time, Willy threw up on the edge of the trash can. Everyone knows that the "steam engine" is going to be powerful.

In the final four seconds, Willy and his teammates combined beautifully to gain a 10-yard offensive possession from the scoring area. This time his teammates used their bodies to block the opponent for him, and then he stepped on the bodies of his teammates, volleyed past the defense, and scored on the ground!

The Sharks came back from behind in the final minute to win and advance to the Grand Finals!

A Hollywood-esque ending where everyone gets the ending they want. The team regained its unity and won the championship in one fell swoop. Christina doesn't think about selling the team every day, and with the support of the mayor, she just wants to carry forward her father's legacy. D'Amato, who was considered old, wanted to prove himself in a different place, and of course, he did not forget to keep his pre-game promise: he must be replaced by Willy at the end of the season; Billman. It's just that he swapped Willie to the team he coached the following season.

When the movie ended, Qiu Suhui also turned on the light, and the room suddenly returned to light, and many people squinted and still didn't get used to it.

Qiu Suhui didn't watch the movie, he kept observing the performance of the players through the light reflected from the screen. He could see that the movie really worked, because the expressions on many people's faces were very excited.

"After reading it, do you have any thoughts?" Qiu Suhui clapped his hands and let the team members recover from the plot of the movie.

No one answered him, and maybe they didn't know how to answer yet.

Qiu Suhui didn't expect them to answer, and now he was going to learn from D'Amato and give a speech that would turn the tide. He knows that as long as he can still touch people after watching this film, he can still be saved.

Milu once used a "rememberthetitans" to unite a loose and unmotivated Chinese team, and finally made it to the World Cup finals. Now Qiu Suhui believes that he can too, because this national team is in a much better situation than that one.

"Let's get straight to the point, I don't think a fight is necessarily a bad thing, of course it depends on the occasion, if you fight in the World Cup, then everyone will die. But now it's different, you guys just exposed the dark side of your heart, don't blame me for speaking ugly, in fact, I didn't scold you sissy like the coach in the movie. Why should I call you sissies? Because you're not good enough, guys! When fighting, they are all fierce and vicious, why are their legs weak during the game? Those who should pass are not passed, those who should run are not run, and the scramble is not active...... Or are you just going to be in the nest? Qiu Suhui should be regarded as scolding, but he didn't use dirty words much, but this is more effective than scolding with dirty words, because every sentence he poked at the sore spot of these people.

"To be honest, I'm not interested in each of you's plans, whether you want to make more money, whether you want to make more money, whether you want to make more girls, that's your own business, but these can't be put above the collective interest. If you're going to box, whatever you want, but you're playing football, it's an eleven-man sport, and it's better not to choose football in the first place for someone who thinks only about the individual at all times and doesn't care about others. Any player who is only skilled and talented, but has no team spirit, has no future, and the same is true for a team. ”

"As a member of a team, if the team doesn't perform well, your own little abacus won't work, and the individual and the team are closely related. But look at your recent performance. Can it still be called a team? Who are you? You are yourself, you are each individual, but you are not a member of the Chinese national team! What is the concept of a team, and has each of you thought about it in your mind? The reason why the striker can concentrate on shooting and scoring is because there is a midfielder who will pass the ball to him. The midfielder can control the ball calmly as others will take the defensive pressure off them. Defenders can tackle with peace of mind as there is a goalkeeper guarding the wicket in the back. It's the other way around, your teammates are willing to fight for you and sacrifice themselves because they know you'll do the same for them when necessary. That's team spirit, gentlemen! Sacrifice and dedication are the key to team spirit, and a person who does not sacrifice himself should never expect others to sacrifice for him, because he is not qualified! People who only care about their own interests are also not qualified! ”

Someone lowered their heads.

"I know that some of you have conflicts with each other, and you don't like each other. I don't expect you to turn war into a sword. But I hope that no matter what your personal relationship is, when you get to the court, you have to give up your personal grudges and play together. This has nothing to do with personal ideological consciousness, it is purely professional ethics. It's your job to play football, so it's your duty to work together on the pitch, and everyone is a professional player, don't you understand this truth? ”

Qiu Suhui asked knowingly, because there are many Chinese players who have been professional players for more than ten years and behave like an amateur player.

Qiu Suhui didn't continue, he felt that after receiving so much information in one breath today, it was time for those guys with "well-developed limbs and simple minds" to digest and digest it.

"That's all for today, you guys go back and think about it, train normally tomorrow, and I hope I can see a team, not a group of people." He waved his hand and dismissed.

When everyone was finished, Hu Li asked Qiu Suhui: "Do you think letting these people watch the movie and talk about it can solve the problem?" ”

Qiu Suhui smiled: "Lao Hu, don't underestimate some spiritual things, good movies have the power to infect people." Have you forgotten how Bora brought the big guys of the Chinese team together in the first place? We're in a much better situation now than Bora, and the people I've screened must be the ones I can control. Let's see tomorrow's training. And this movie won't just let them watch it once. I'll let them relive it before the first game against Brazil. ”

Qiu Suhui took out the plate, but he didn't expect a chance introduction to make him discover something good, and it seems that he will have to dabble in some other things in the future. Milou still reads psychology books, and he can't just think about football every day.
