Chapter 146: Not So Exaggerated......
readx;
Chu Zhongtian's life in the past few days, except for training, is at Ribery's house, watching the game video with him. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info two people look together, and then express some opinions and opinions on their opponents, and after finding the weaknesses of their opponents, they discuss how to use them.
The two of them said that they would go out and demonstrate live on the lawn if they were excited. Wahiba left her husband and her children like this, and she was helpless to be with Chu Pao all day long. She could only express her opinion in a joking way: "Frank, do you know? Sometimes I feel that it is not me who is married to you, but Chu ......"
Ribery laughed when he heard this, and took his wife's words as a joke - how could I marry a man!
In training, Chu Zhongtian was also very hardworking. It was his first European Championship final and he didn't want to leave himself with any regrets, so he had to be in the best shape and fit in training.
"We're going to have an intra-squad game today and I'll see how you guys are ready." With three days to go until the final, Jean. Coach Fernandes arranged such an intra-squad match.
Eleven men from each side played a closed match in the training ground.
On the one hand, it is to test the success of the players' training, on the other hand, it is to observe the state of the players, and the other reason is to hope that the players' bodies can gradually adjust to the stage of adapting to the game through close to actual games, after all, most of the main players have not played much since the semi-finals.
Chu Zhongtian was naturally assigned to the main group, wearing a yellow vest that symbolized the main players.
Ribery, who was also wearing a yellow vest, stepped up: "Chu." β
"Huh?"
"Remember what we came up with while watching the video?"
Chu Zhongtian nodded. They came up with a lot of weird ideas while watching the video, but because they didn't have the opportunity to fight, there was naturally no way to test whether those ideas worked.
"Let's try it out in this competition."
"Good!"
Not long after the game started, Chu Zhongtian and Ribery made a wonderful cooperation. He was in the middle of midfield, waving his hand to press forward for the full-backs to press forward, while he controlled the football and waited for the full-backs to press. He then made the illusion of passing the football to Oblagnac, but knocked it to Ribery with his heel. Ribery did not catch the ball and break through, but also passed it to Chu Zhongtian, who was inserted, with his heel. Then Chu Zhongtian shot from a distance, and the football slashed out.
Jean, who saw this scene from the sidelines. Fernandez nodded. Chu Zhongtian is in good condition, so he is relieved.
In the following matches, Chu Zhongtian and Ribery have been trying to come up with the cooperation they came up with before, some succeeding, some failing.
After 20 minutes of the game, the red team launched an attack, and Chu Zhongtian, who was the back of the yellow team, chased back the defense and faced Obertan.
The young Obertan is fast, agile and adept at accelerating and changing direction. When facing Chu Zhongtian, he used the trick of suddenly accelerating and suddenly accelerating, and then changing to a superior person. I want to shake Chu Zhongtian.
When Chu Zhongtian saw Obertan suddenly make a sudden stop, he knew that he was going to change direction. Obertan's problem is that he relies too much on his own characteristics, so he can easily be studied by opponents in the game, and he can create a bit of a threat at first, but as the game goes on, he will gradually lose his effect.
If he wants to have a brighter future on the pitch, he must get rid of the problem of playing only with his body, which is too monolithic and not conducive to his growth.
Therefore, when Obertan made an emergency stop, Chu Zhongtian also followed the emergency stop, and made a turning action at the same time as Obertan.
Chu Zhongtian knows Obertan, and Obertan also understands Chu Zhongtian. He knew that this simple emergency stop and change of direction would not be able to shake off Chu Zhongtian, so he followed it with another emergency stop and change of direction to accelerate.
Chu Zhongtian also stopped and turned around.
At this moment, he suddenly felt a pulling pain in the thigh muscles of his left leg. It was short-lived, it came from the force in his thighs, and when he felt the pain, he immediately stopped doing it, and the pain disappeared again.
He just stood where he was, letting Obertan break through him without making any moves.
Obertan saw that his feints were working, and smug him to shoot at goal.
Goalkeeper Wenbi didn't expect Chu Zhongtian to be passed so easily, and when Obertan shot at the goal, he didn't react at all and let the football go into the goal.
Obertan was celebrating after the goal.
The teammates of the red team were also cheering for him, and it was not easy to break through Chu Zhongtian.
Ribery was the first to notice that something was wrong with Chu Zhongtian, and he found that Chu Zhongtian had suddenly stopped when he could have stopped Obertan, like a mecha that had lost all its power, and then stood in place with his head down and couldn't see any expression.
He ran over: "What's wrong with you, Chu?" It's not like you to let Obertan pass so easily......"
Chu Zhongtian ignored him, just kicked his right leg on the spot, and then frowned.
This action is familiar to anyone who exercises regularly, and Ribery frowned.
"Hurt?" He asked in a low voice.
Chu Zhongtian nodded lightly: "It may be a strain." β
"Hell......" Ribery scolded. When there were only three days before the finals, Chu Zhongtian suffered a muscle strain?
Let. Fernandez was the second person to notice that something was wrong with Chu Zhongtian. He saw Chu Zhongtian and Ribery together, lowering their heads and constantly kicking their legs, as if they were testing something. He knew what that meant. So he motioned to assistant coach and referee David Brown. CarrΓ© stopped the game and ran up with the team doctor.
With just three days to go until the final, no minor injury can go unnoticed, and it's no wonder he's so nervous.
The players were stunned when they saw the manager running onto the pitch with the team doctor - who was injured? They didn't think of Chu Zhongtian at all, because Chu Zhongtian had never been injured in the team for more than two seasons, not even the smallest injury. This made everyone default that Chu Zhongtian was a monster who would not be injured.
But they forgot that Chu Zhongtian was actually a human being, not an alien.
Obertan, who was still celebrating the goal, also noticed this scene, he stopped celebrating, and watched the head coach and the team doctor run towards Chu Zhongtian and Ribery in confusion.
Chu Zhongtian raised his head and looked at the head coach Jean, who had already run in front of him. Mr. Fernandez and team doctor Stefan. Donkey.
"What's going on?" Let. Fernandez asked with a serious expression.
"Thigh muscle strain, sir......" Chu Zhongtian replied helplessly. Injured before the final, whoever had such a thing was disappointed and helpless.
Fernandez's brows furrowed, and Tang Ji had already begun to check on Chu Zhongtian.
"When?" Fernandez continued.
"Just now, when I was defending Obertan, I made a move and felt a muscle pain in my left thigh, so I stopped." Chu Zhongtian said.
"You're doing the right thing, Chu." Tang Ji, the team doctor who was examining Chu Zhongtian, picked up the conversation. "You were right to stop right away. If you insist on doing that action, your muscles are torn right now. Then he patted Chu Zhongtian's thigh. Looking at it now, it should be just the slightest strain. β
"Will you be able to make it to the final?"
This sentence is Chu Zhongtian and Jean. Fernandez asked in unison.
Tang Ji was taken aback by the performance of the two people, and then said: "I can't guarantee it, it depends on the recovery in the past few days." But Chu, don't think about training anymore. β
When Chu Zhongtian heard that he was not sure whether he would be able to participate in the finals, he immediately became very frustrated, and his shoulders fell suddenly.
Ribery was also on the side, listening to the conversation between the three men in its entirety. When he heard that Chu Zhongtian was not sure whether he could participate in the finals, he was stunned for a moment.
Can't make it to the finals? So what is it about working hard for a season?
He watched Chu Zhongtian walk down the training ground step by step with the support of the team doctor Tang Ji, stunned and didn't know what to say.
"What's wrong with Chu?"
"Are you hurt?"
"Wouldn't it? Monster-like Chu can also get hurt? β
"I heard it was a muscle strain......
"Damn, this hurts ......"
"I just don't know if it's serious or not, and if I can catch up with the finals......"
I don't know when a large group of teammates surrounded him, and they looked at Chu Zhongtian's back and talked about it.
β»β»β» "Don't be sad, Chu." "The team doctor Tang Ji saw that Chu Zhongtian had been keeping a straight face, so he comforted." It's just a slight strain, as long as you recuperate and massage during these three days, it should still be no problem to catch up with the finals......"
Chu Zhongtian didn't laugh as Tang Ji thought, and his expression didn't change at all.
"If I can't catch up, I'll close it." Here is his answer.
"It's not that serious...... Tang Ji hurriedly smiled, he was afraid that Chu Zhongtian would think of something terrible again.
Fernandez said to Chu Zhongtian: "Don't participate in the training, now follow Tang Ji to receive a therapeutic massage." Don't touch the ball for a few days, rest in peace. Did you hear that, Chu? β
"I understand, sir......" Chu Zhongtian is quite helpless, how can he ensure his state if he can't participate in training? However, he also knew that if his body continued to train, it would only aggravate the condition of the strain, and then there would really be no hope of participating in the finals.
Chu Zhongtian's injury in training made everyone lose the mood to talk and laugh, and the atmosphere in training was a little dull. Everyone knows how important Chu Zhongtian is to the team, he is the core of Metz, and all the offense and defense revolve around him, if he can't make it to the final...... Many people are starting to think that winning the championship is hopeless.
Ribery was also in a bad mood, but he didn't feel that there was no hope of winning the championship, he felt sorry for Chu Zhongtian. Everyone worked hard for a season, and in the end they couldn't make it to the final, and Ribery could imagine and understand that feeling. Could anything be worse than this? He couldn't think of it.
β»β»β» When Chu Zhongtian was injured, it was in a closed intra-team game, so the media didn't know about it at first. But there are no impermeable walls in this world, and for the media, there is no news that they can't dig up. So soon the media knew that Mace's core player Chu Zhongtian pulled his thigh muscles in training.
"What? Chu Zhongtian was injured? "Chinese journalists reacted the most.
"Holy! That's! How can you get injured before the final? How did you get hurt? β
"Ah...... That's right...... Why not be careful? This...... This...... It's also too ...... Alas! β
The first reaction of most Chinese journalists when they learn of this news is not - there is another piece of news to hype. It's a pity, a pity, a pity, and a little bit of disappointment.
I finally expected a Chinese player to appear in the final of such an important cup competition as the UEFA Cup, but I heard the news of his injury before the final. It's as if a dream has come to an end but it's just a void, which makes people feel lost.
"China Chu was injured in training and may miss the important finals? γ
"Injuries are the enemy of athletes, how many heroes are planted on injuries!" γ
"Die before leaving the school, and the hero will be full of tears for a long time......"
A variety of pessimistic headlines appeared in the domestic media, pouring cold water on Chinese fans who were still looking forward to the League Cup final. It has been heard that local Chinese TV stations have successfully bought the rights to broadcast the UEFA Cup final, and they will be able to watch the game on their respective provincial stations.
In fact, if Chu Zhongtian can't play, the biggest losses are the TV stations that spent a lot of money to buy broadcast rights...... As soon as the news of Chu Zhongtian's injury came out, the sale of advertising slots that were still in full swing before was immediately met with a cold reception. Those sponsors who were enthusiastic before are now in a wait-and-see mode, and they want to confirm whether Chu Zhongtian is really unable to participate in the League Cup final. If it is true, there is naturally no need to advertise anymore.
Ordinary fans will definitely only feel sorry and regret for Chu Zhongtian not being able to participate in the finals, and they would never have imagined that Chu Zhongtian's inability to participate in the finals would have such a wide impact. They may understand why Ronaldo insisted on playing before the World Cup final in France, even if he is a big star. Fortunately, no one can force Chu Zhongtian in this regard.
The French media also felt pity and regret for Chu Zhongtian's injury, and they knew how important Chu Zhongtian was to Metz. If Chu Zhongtian is not able to participate in the final, Mace's hopes of victory will drop by at least 30 percentage points.
The Spanish media gloated when they reported on the incident. They have said that Chu Zhongtian's absence will have a huge impact on Metz, and Sevilla will successfully defend the UEFA Cup title.
Chu Zhongtian's injury also affected other people.
For the first time, he received a text message from Mathilde, asking him about his injury and wishing him a speedy recovery. Whether she can participate in the League Cup final or not, Mathilde doesn't care, as long as Chu Zhongtian is healthy. As a pseudo-fan, she can't understand what a final means to a player like Chu Zhongtian.
Lin Beiyao also sent a bouquet of flowers to Chu Zhongtian, hoping that he could recover as soon as possible and play in the finals. Compared with Mathilde, Lin Beiyao is no longer a pseudo-fan, at least she knows that Chu Zhongtian is eager to participate in the finals.
In addition, Chu Zhongtian also received a call from two economists, concerned about his injury. Chu Zhongtian couldn't participate in the finals, which also had a great impact on the two of them. If he can make it to the final, his influence on the football pitch and off the pitch will be further enhanced, which is good for everyone.
In addition, Boss John in the UK also knew the news that Chu Zhongtian had strained his thigh muscles during training, so Boss John called and asked Chu Zhongtian if he could participate in the finals.
If Chu Zhongtian can't participate in the final, then there is no need for them to go to Glasgow to cheer on Metz. After all, they are just Chu Zhongtian fans, not supporters of Metz.
Chu Zhongtian replied to Boss John with certainty: "Don't worry, I will definitely participate in the finals." β
His confidence doesn't come from recovering from his injury, in fact he's only been injured for a day and he doesn't know how he's recovering. He just made up his mind that no matter what the injury turned out to be, he would play in the final when the time came. Just like he said to the team doctor Tang Ji, even if it is closed, he will participate in the final.
He doesn't know what the future holds, will he be able to compete in finals at a higher level, will he achieve anything higher? He doesn't think about it, he just wants to grasp the present. Even if it is at some physical cost, it will not be spared.
His parents, who were far away in their hometown in China, called Chu Zhongtian. The mother is purely concerned about her son's body, because the Chinese media said that Chu Zhongtian's injury was very serious and serious at the beginning, giving people the feeling that Chu Zhongtian was about to retire. So Zhou Xiaoxiang was really taken aback, and hurriedly called over to ask, and was relieved when she heard her son say to her in person that it wasn't a big deal. In addition to caring about his son's body, his father Chu Zuosheng is also concerned about whether he can participate in the finals.
Like answering Boss John, Chu Zhongtian also told his father that he would definitely be able to participate in the finals, but he lied about the reason. He lied to his dad that he was recovering well from his injury, so it was no problem to participate in the finals.
How could there be no Emily among the people who were most concerned about Chu Zhongtian. What about Stan?
For a group that was concerned about her lover, she knew the news of Chu Zhongtian's injury as soon as possible, so she called Chu Zhongtian.
"I'll ask you now, Chu. You are not allowed to lie, you are not allowed to lie to me, and you are not allowed to think that I know nothing about football. Just tell me honestly if your injury is serious and how it will affect the final. β
Chu Zhongtian could lie to his parents, but in the face of Emily, who knew him better, he couldn't lie.
He can only honestly say: "It's not serious, but whether I can participate in the finals, I don't know now......"
After saying that, he heard Suo's voice on the other side of the phone, and he asked strangely, "What are you doing, Emily?" β
"Me? I'm packing my ......."
"Are you going to film again? Didn't you just end the filming of a play? β
"Stupid! I'm Lymesh! β
"Huh?" Chu Zhongtian was stunned.
"Of course I'm here to stay with you when you're hurt! Isn't this a normal thing for couples? What are you surprised about? Emily asked rhetorically.
"Uh...... It's just a small injury, why does the whole world think it's a very serious injury......" Chu Zhongtian felt that Emily's reaction was a little too aggressive.
"It has nothing to do with your injuries. I'm coming anyway, aren't you welcome? β
"Of course you are welcome...... Just doesn't that affect your work, Emily? β
"I had set aside my vacation to watch the UEFA Cup final. Of course not. β
"And your mother......"
When Emily heard Chu Zhongtian say this, she raised her head and glanced at her mother, who was helplessly looking at her putting clothes in the box. Then he smiled: "No problem! β
β»β»β»ps, the game in the early hours of this morning was a very good game, although the two sides only scored one goal, and most of the time it was Barcelona besieging Inter Milan, but it was really exciting for me, it was a game of wits between the two coaches. But it is clear that in both terms of wisdom and bravery, Guardiola has been defeated by Jose Mourinho.
De Brick's red card is very controversial, but if it were Toney. Donne, I think he's going to thank De Brick in his post-match press conference, because it was De Brick who helped him make up his mind to defend to the end. The most complaining person in Barcelona? Maybe there are two, one is Buzquez, who pretends to be very hurt, and the other is to unite Inter Milan and compress Barcelona's De Brick with a stubborn defense.
This game fully proved that even a team of Barcelona's level will not be able to "win 4-0" (Ibrahimovic) in the face of a team that has a strong belief and resolutely implements the manager's tactics.
Offense wins accolades, defense wins championships. Which one to choose? I think Mourinho must know it.
