The next training session was physical training, and Eames tortured the group of players in a variety of ways. As if they couldn't get up without getting them up completely, they wouldn't give up. The players privately complained about whether the former Wimbledon player was psychologically twisted and took pleasure in torturing people.

However, the training of the amateur team is not very technical, and no one protests that the head coach has no training and is not at home.

At the end of the afternoon training, most of the players said goodbye to their teammates and left in their football suits. It's like they come to play football on weekdays, and they just go home after playing, which is very casual.

Kings Ranch is a very simple stadium, and there are no hot showers in the locker rooms, even if it is cold, there are only four sprinklers. It's good to say in summer, everyone can get used to taking cold water directly, but what if winter comes? No one has thought about it that much at the moment, and even if it is such a humble stadium, AFC Wimbledon may not have the money to rent it.

Only a few people choose to take cold water here. In fact, everyone knows that taking a cold shower after strenuous exercise is not good for the body.

Chu Zhongtian is one of the few people, relying on his young body and strong body, he doesn't care whether it is good or not. His whole body had been washed with sweat almost ten times, and he was so slimy that it would be too uncomfortable if he didn't take a shower. Besides, if you have to take a shower when you go back to your accommodation, you have to pay for the water bill yourself, so you might as well wash here.

"Let's go first, Chu." Schilling and Sullivan shouted at the shower in the locker room outside.

"Goodbye!" Chu Zhongtian responded while wiping his body with soap.

Icy water poured down from the sprinkler and washed over his body, and he felt refreshed. Although he didn't show any impatience in training, and although he enjoyed the physical training, he was just as eager to train with the ball as his team-mates, and he was also eager to play...... After all, he's here to play football, not to run.

The joy of football isn't something you can just run.

Chu Zhongtian remembered the plot of watching the Japanese cartoon "Football Player" before, where the protagonist played football to and from school, and hated it so much that he lived with football without sleeping. He didn't do anything to and from school playing a football when he was a kid, but he did sleep with a soccer ball in his arms...... When he was very young, he literally slept with his father after he bought himself his first leather soccer ball as a gift for his sixth birthday. And after going out to kick, take it home and put it in the sink carefully to brush it carefully...... At that time, he liked football so much: he was reluctant to take off the newly bought jersey even when he went to sleep, he had to wear it to sleep, and he said that a beautiful jersey was the best and best clothes for him at that time. finally went out to play and wore a jersey for the second photo, because this is his "fashion"; The newly bought Double Planet shoes have to be worn for a few laps even at home to feel the special elasticity brought by the rubber sole; On his birthday, there's nothing more delightful than receiving a gift like a new football.

Now that I think about it, it was so simple back then...... A leather soccer ball, a new jersey, and a new pair of sneakers are like treasures that can last a lifetime.

My love for football at that time was really pure and without a trace of impurities. At that time, he didn't think about putting on the national team jersey, winning glory for the country, and playing for the country. I didn't want to become a professional football star, he didn't know what professional football was, and he didn't know that he could become a big star by playing football. It's just that I like it, I feel happy to play football, it's happy to pass a person with the ball, it's happy to stop a breakthrough from the opponent, it's happy to score a goal against the opponent, it's very happy to complete a wonderful pass, and of course, the most important thing is to win a game with my teammates, that's the happiest.

Later, as he grew older, these joys gradually left him one by one.

He felt that some happiness would never be returned.

Because of his distraction, today's bath took a bit long, and when Chu Zhongtian came out of the bathroom, the dressing room was already empty. After changing clothes alone, he emerges from the humble dressing room, only to be surprised to find Emily standing at the exit.

"It's getting darker, I thought you're gone, and the people who asked out found out that you were still inside. Hi Chu. Emily greeted Chu Zhongtian.

"Hello, Emily." Chu Zhongtian came back to his senses and saluted back. "Why are you here?"

"I'm done with the fundraising for the club, so I'll stop by and see you. I didn't expect that by the time I came, your training was over. How does the training feel? Emily was waiting at the door for Chu Zhongtian to come out.

"It's okay, it's all physical training, what I'm best at." Chu Zhongtian shrugged. "How's the fundraising going?"

At the mention of this, Emily laughed, and there was a look of pride on her face. She stretched out two fingers to Chu Zhongtian:

"We only need £20,000 to lease the stadium for a year."

Chu Zhongtian noticed that she said "only 20,000 pounds". You know, just eleven days ago, she was worried and said, "I think 20,000 pounds is too much, I don't know if we can make it up." ”

"Eleven days have passed, and we have gathered 70,000!" She suddenly screamed loudly, screaming at Chu Zhongtian excitedly. "Seventy thousand pounds! Enough to rent this stadium until 2006! We did it! We really did it! In just eleven days, we raised £70,000!! ”

Chu Zhongtian watched Emily jump around him happily. He could see that the girl was genuinely happy about it.

"We proved ourselves! Our love for football at Wimbledon isn't going to wane with the departure of that damn rich team! We can continue to use the stadium now, it's small, but it's okay......"

Emily suddenly fell silent again, looking up at the façade of the King's Ranch. It's more like a secondary school stadium than the home stadium used by Wimbledon, which is looking to move.

"Wimbledon started playing on public lawns in the city, and there were only 17,000 people in Prau Lane. We'll always go back. ”

She looked up at the King's Ranch in the setting sun, which had lost its original color and was only a brilliant golden yellow. It doesn't look so run-down anymore.

Chu Zhongtian suddenly thought that on the afternoon of the official establishment of the team, Mr. Stewart, the chairman of the club, also said the same.

"Go where you need to go! Go to the top league! Back to where you should be, South West London! ”

The shouting in the small stadium was so deafening that he thought he was at Old Trafford, or Wembley. The deafening shout made him can't help but clench his fists at that time, wanting to shout with them.

"It's a shame. I can't stay here until the day I see it. ”

Emily withdrew her gaze and turned her head to look at Chu Zhongtian.

"I'm just an international student." Chu Zhongtian, who was staring at Emily, shrugged and explained. "I'll graduate in four years, where will the team be then?"

Emily smiled: "No matter where you are in the future, when Wimbledon returns to the top flight, I will definitely ask you to come back." You were one of the first players at Wimbledon. The first foreign aid of the new era of Wimbledon, ha! ”

Chu Zhongtian stretched out his hand to her: "A word is a certainty." ”

Emily shook his hand: "A word is a deal. ”

ps, two more finishes~~

Trivia: £70,000 in 11 days is a real thing, but Wimbledon is not a big club and the number of fans is nowhere near as big as those big teams. This shows the loyalty of foreign fans to the teams they support, which is emotional......

In addition, ask for recommendations.,It's the last night of the week.,The champion legend is about to fall out of the recommendation list on the home page.,Please support everyone in the line of fire~~~!
