After defeating Kortrijk, Yu Liang and his family did not take the bus directly back to Antwerp, but stayed directly in Kortrijk. Because in midweek, in three days' time, they will travel to Mosgaulen for the semi-finals of the Cup.

Mosgaulen is just southwest of Kortrijk, only fifteen kilometers away from Kortrijk, and it only takes ten minutes to drive there.

If they return to Antwerp now, they will waste nearly three hours going back and forth on the road.

It's not good for a week of double races.

After deciding that he wanted to make a bigger breakthrough in the cup competition, Van Ake stayed in Kortrijk after the game. Over the next two days, the Antwerp players prepared for the first leg of the semi-final against Mosgaulen in Kortrijk. Then, on race day, head to Mosgaulen for a race, and immediately after the race, return to Antwerp.

After the race, they went straight to the Hôtel Messern on the south bank of the River Lye, one of the few hotels in Kortrijk with a gym.

Located in the western part of Belgium, Kortrijk is a cultural and industrial center with a history of more than 1,500 years.

It is only more than 20 kilometers away from Lille, France.

Because the game was played in the afternoon, it was not dark after they checked into the hotel.

And they didn't have anything to do all night, so Yu Liang thought about going out to see this famous cultural city of Belgium.

"Do you want to go out and be drowned by their spit?"

Thinking that they had just slaughtered their favorite team on someone's turf. Listening to King Dong's words. Yu Liang directly gave up the idea of going out shopping.

"So, let's play games with me!"

Saying that, King Dong directly stuffed the handle in his hand to Yu Liang. The two played Pro Evolution Soccer in the room.

……

The next morning, after some training in the hotel's gym, Yu Liang and his teammates followed Van Ack to a nearby football stadium in the afternoon for training.

In Belgium, football stadiums are everywhere.

After yesterday's game, Van Ake stayed behind Kortrijk for only half an hour. Assistant coach Günther has a pitch nearby for them to train with.

The training ground is provided by a local football club called KVK, which is only a few minutes' drive from the Messern Hotel.

After arriving at the training ground. Yu Liang trained under the leadership of the coaching staff.

Antwerp trains here for the time leading up to the race day.

Because the time of the game was scheduled for 8 o'clock in the evening, Yu Liang and they had dinner at the hotel before heading to Mosgaulen.

Although Mosgaulen is very close to Kortrijk. However, there is still a great deal of cultural surprise between the two places.

This is evident in the language.

Kortrijk belongs to the Fleming region. Most of the people who live here speak Dutch.

Mosgaulen, on the other hand, belongs to the Walloon region, where people live in French.

However, there is also a Dutch language in Mosgaulen, unlike other Wallonia regions, where there is no Dutch language at all.

After arriving at Mosgaulen's home stadium, Le Caneño, Yu Liang and his teammates immediately went to warm up.

This morning, they came here for a training session, so for this course. They are no strangers.

Although Mosgaulen is a small border town, the football atmosphere here is quite strong.

While they are warming up. The stadium, which can accommodate more than 10,000 people, is basically full.

The enthusiastic people of Mosgauren let out bursts of boos when Yu Liang and them came out to warm up. The boos continued until the end of their warm-up.

"Damn it! I didn't expect the fans here to be so enthusiastic! ”

On the way back to the locker room after the warm-up, Kevin Jenson complained quietly.

Kevin Jenson, who had been trying to cross from the wing, received the most boos because he was close to the stands.

Listening to Kevin Jenson's complaints, captain Willocks immediately explained with a smile.

"It's the home of the Devils. While Mosgaulen have not had a good season with just eight wins so far, five of those eight victories have come at home. So in this game, you must not underestimate them. ”

"Got it!"

The captain spoke, and the players immediately agreed.

But in their hearts, they didn't take Morse Gaulen to heart.

Looking at the road to cup promotion, they can even eliminate Genk, who is fifth in the league, and they are afraid that Mosgalen on the edge of the relegation zone will not succeed.

"Boss, what does that mean?"

Immediately after returning to the locker room, a player spotted a series of numbers on the tactical board.

"I know! 322 refers to today. 412 is the second round of the match day with Mosgalen. 514, Cup final match day. ”

Looking at the numbers on the tactical board, after thinking for a while, Lart immediately gave the answer.

"Head, am I right?"

"That's right!"

Looking around at all the players, Van Ake continued.

"Can you tell us how you felt when you won the championship?"

"How did you feel when you won the championship?"

The quiet dressing room immediately became chaotic, but then a burst of sighs could be heard.

In this Antwerp team, no player has tasted the title.

"I know none of you have ever won a championship, and I know that none of you have ever seen us win a championship! All I can tell you is that it was a wonderful feeling. That night is still unforgettable! ”

Van Ake, now 50, is also a former professional footballer who spent a brief spell at Antwerp.

His arrival in Antwerp coincided with a period of Antwerp's strength. In his first season, they came close to winning the league title.

They finished runners-up in the league for two consecutive seasons and had a chance to win the double in their second season, but they fell short in the end.

So when Van Ack said this, Willocks looked over with a puzzled look.

"To be honest, I haven't won a championship either! I can't appreciate the beauty of a championship, but I know the pain of losing a championship, and it will be something you will never forget! So, do you want to experience the beauty of winning the championship? ”

"Yes!"

If a footballer doesn't care about honor, what can he pursue?

So there was an immediate burst of shouts in the locker room.

"Good, three games. Win these three races and the championship is yours! (To be continued.) )
