Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Dawn Has Come
readx;
For the new century, the madness and novelty of the new millennium quickly passed. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 InfoLife has not changed, and the world has not become full of high-tech atmosphere as soon as the clock strikes zero. People still crowd the bus to work and go to school every day. Cooking and boiling water is still done with liquefied petroleum gas, not solar energy. Computer networks are not yet widespread enough to be implanted in the human brain.
The football team suspended training according to the regulations, waited until the final exam, and then concentrated training, and then after the Spring Festival, the whole team will go to Shanghai to participate in the 15th National High School Football Championship held there. The fourteen-day schedule, 64 schools, and seven rounds of competition will determine the king of high school football in the country this year.
But Zhang Jun doesn't have the heart to think about the king of football now, and it is the right thing to deal with the final exam wholeheartedly. Under Sophie's careful guidance for more than a year, his grades are now stable in the middle and upper reaches, and he doesn't have to worry about how to pass the final exam as he used to.
The three-and-a-half-day final exam finally ended in a note, and naturally a few families were happy and a few worried. However, the members of the football team did not have time to "rejoice and worry", and the day after the exam, the team gathered at the school according to Liang Ke's request and began Liang Ke's so-called "devil training".
As soon as Zhang Jun stepped into the team's activity room, he saw that the qualifier bracket on the wall had been replaced by the national competition bracket table. The opponent of Shuguang in the first game was Guangming Middle School from Dalian, last year's national runner-up.
The news of the match came out before the exam, but Liang Ke pressed it and didn't announce it, because this opponent was too strong, and he was afraid that it would affect the mood of the players in the exam.
Guangming Middle School lost to the High School Affiliated to the University of Science and Technology in the final of the last national competition, but its strength is still not to be underestimated. It can even be said that a team like Dawn that has entered the national competition for the first time needs to look up to each other.
Because the High School Affiliated to HKUST did not enter the national competition, Guangming Middle School became the top seed team in this competition. The match between Dawn and them was the first game, which is commonly known as the opening match.
The players all gathered in front of the match table and discussed, only Zhang Jun didn't take it seriously, he turned his head and asked Sophie on the side: "How long have you been doing it?" ”
"Four hours, half an hour faster than before!" Sophie said with a smile.
"Does your knee hurt?"
"It doesn't hurt!" Sophie shook her head.
"It's strange if it doesn't hurt!" Zhang Jun said in his heart.
"Zhang Jun! Come and see! Anke beckoned to him, "I met the runner-up of the last session in the first game!" Looks like we're going to be coming back after the first game! Anke said worriedly.
"Yes, yes! Anke, why don't you even get out of your room, and you can get on the train home straight after the game, right? Ren Yudi also said "worriedly".
Yang Pan also came out to mix blindly: "Ren Yu is right, I'll tell Lao Liang, why don't you even refund your ticket?" ”
"Hey, hey! I'm just kidding, why are you taking it so seriously? ”
"Oh? Joke? Hehe! Kaka looked at Anke with a very strange look.
Zhang Jun felt that if he didn't say a few words, Anke would probably go away again, and at that time, Shuguang would really "die before he got out of school".
"Alright, alright. Actually, nothing, what happened to the last runner-up? We even beat the last champion! Are you still afraid of the runner-up? For every reason to worry, our goal is a national victory! ”
Zhang Jun raised his arms and exhaled, he must have thought that this shape was very stylish, but the room suddenly fell silent, and everyone looked at Zhang Jun until he was embarrassed to see himself.
"Well, don't look at me like that! Don't leave! Don't go, everyone! Anke, Ren Yudi, Kaka, ah, and Yang Pan! What are you all walking? Hey ......"
The Spring Festival is the same, and the slight change is that there is no eating and drinking as in previous years. Liang Ke warned them that if they came back from the Spring Festival, they would weigh themselves, and if they gained weight, they would have to "10,000 meters" every day.
However, even if Liang Ke doesn't speak, Zhang Jun will also pay attention to his diet, he is the one who wants to win the national championship, and he must strictly control it himself. But...... It's really cruel to look at a table of good food, but you can only swallow and foam...... And Zhang Jun has to face such a cruel thing almost every day.
On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, all the members of the Shuguang football team gathered at the school, then took the school bus to the train station, and then took the bus to Shanghai.
A sleeper car with half of the team's occupants seated. It was the first time for them to travel collectively, everyone played cards in the carriage, frolicked, chatted, listened to music, read books, the whole carriage was full of laughter, and the long-distance trip did not feel boring.
Sophie has been with Jang Jun all the time. After New Year's Day, a fool can also see that the relationship between the two is unusual, as for what kind of unusual law it is, there is no need to say it explicitly, everyone understands it in their hearts......
Thirty-six hours later, the train finally entered Shanghai Station.
"Dear passengers, the final stop of this train is Shanghai Station, welcome to the vibrant city of Shanghai1Thank you for taking this train, I wish you a happy journey! Good bye! ”
"Shanghai! It's finally here! ”
"Wow! It's beautiful! ”
"It is worthy of being a metropolis, Luoyang is really incomparable!"
……
The team members who participated in the national competition for the first time expressed their excitement to the fullest.
The organizing committee of the competition arranged all the participating teams to stay in two hotels, which are very close to the main venue of the competition, the 80,000 stadium.
Tomorrow afternoon, after a brief opening ceremony, the opening match of the competition will take place. Therefore, Shuguang will go to the stadium this afternoon to adapt to the venue, half an hour for each team, Dalian Guangming Middle School at four o'clock in the afternoon, and Shuguang at half past four.
For the dawn of defeating the previous champion of the High School Affiliated to the University of Science and Technology to enter the national competition, the media have commented that "the strength is a mystery, but the victory over the High School Affiliated to the University of Science and Technology cannot be underestimated." However, in the first round, it encountered last year's runner-up, Guangming Middle School. It's a lot of bad luck, and they are likely to go home after the first round with little experience in the tournament. ”
Only Luoyang's "High School Football" predicts that the dawn will make history. However, it was ridiculed by other media as "localism", and said that Shuguang had already made history, and they ended the undefeated record of the High School Affiliated to the University of Science and Technology in Henan for 15 years, and did not expect that the rookie of this national competition could make any breakthroughs in the strong national competition.
When the Dawning players stepped on the turf of the 80,000-person stadium, they couldn't help but study the grass again.
Even the coach of Guangming Middle School, who was interviewed by reporters on the sidelines, talked about the team's goal of winning the championship, and the strong team that may be encountered after entering the semi-finals, and then regretted the high school attached to the University of Science and Technology, which was quite a hero, but it did not mention their opponent in the first round - who was training on the court behind him, and defeated the dawn of the high school attached to the University of Science and Technology.
The dawn is nothing more than a passing passerby, and in the fifteen-year history of the national competition, there are too many such passers-by. There are 11,000,000 reasons why regulars in national competitions like Guangming Middle School should not take the light of day in their eyes.
The opening ceremony and opening match will be held a day earlier than the other competitions, so this match can also be said to be highly anticipated. Liang Ke was afraid that the players would be too nervous, so he went to the players' rooms the night before the game to have a look, wanting to talk to them and relieve pressure.
He pushed open the first room and saw no one.
The second room, still unoccupied.
The third room, still no one. Liang Ke stood at the door, looking at the empty room, a little confused.
In the fourth room, Yang Pan was lying on the bed reading a book, with headphones plugged in his ears, not caring about Liang Ke's appearance. Liang Ke looked at it, but decided not to disturb him. Then he gently closed the door and stepped out.
At this time, he saw Zhang Jun, who was walking out of the elevator hall wearing slippers and holding a can of Coke in his hand.
"Coach?"
The two of them found an inconspicuous place in the hall downstairs and watched the players of the other teams come and go. Some star players are still being interviewed by reporters.
"What about the others?" Liang Ke took a sip of water.
"Kaka was calling his family, and he was a little homesick."
"Hmm." Liang Ke nodded, "This is the first Spring Festival he has spent outside, and it is easy to be homesick by himself." ”
Ren Yudi was sent to play billiards by Ancora, and they said that they would compete for the first billiards master in the team, and everyone else followed. Yang Pan was reading a book in his room. ”
"Hmm, what else?"
"And? Nope. ”
"What about Sophie? She's always with you these days. Liang Ke glanced at Zhang Jun meaningfully, and Zhang Jun's face immediately turned red.
"She, oh, she's in her room, she didn't come out after dinner, she doesn't know what she's doing,"
"Well, Sophie is a good girl, you're in luck!"
"Coach!"
"Huh! Don't pretend to be a gentleman in front of me, I'm only thirty, and I know very well your little bit of fancy intestines. Okay, let's not talk about that, how are the preparations for tomorrow's game? ”
"No problem!"
"Huh! That's good, you're the ace scorer in the team, you can't be short of confidence! ”
"Rest assured, Coach! My goal is a national victory, and I won't stop until I get there! Zhang Jun raised his voice slightly.
Liang Ke glanced at Zhang Jun, then twisted his head away again, looking at the people coming and going in the hall. "National Winner......
"You're all here!" Yang Pan walked over, "I saw that the other rooms were almost empty, so I went down to look for them." Instructor. ”
Liang Ke nodded and pointed to the entertainment room: "Where are they all?" ”
Yang Pan looked at Liang Ke's fingers, and then laughed: "If any reporter sees them in the entertainment room now, they will definitely see the newspaper tomorrow: the members of Shuguang have given up and are having crazy fun collectively." Hehe! ”
At this time, sure enough, a TV reporter came over, probably because he couldn't find the news, and came to dig up some material from the opponent of the top seed team in the opening match.
"Hello, I'm a reporter from Shanghai Satellite TV's Culture and Sports Channel."
"Hello." Liang Ke replied in a measured manner, and did not show great excitement and excitement in front of reporters' cameras like some coaches.
"Shuguang defeated the High School Affiliated to the University of Science and Technology and participated in the national competition for the first time, but in the first round, it encountered the runner-up Guangming Middle School, what do you think of tomorrow's opening game?"
"Our winner is a national winner." Liang Ke only used this one sentence to end his answer.
The reporter was stunned for a moment, saw that Liang Ke no longer spoke, and turned his eyes to Yang Pan who was sitting on the side, and he recognized that this was the captain of Shuguang: "Yang Pan, how do you feel about participating in the national competition for the first time?" ”
"Our goal is a national championship." Yang Pan replied lightly.
"This ......" The reporter seemed to see the UFO, and he turned his eyes to Zhang Jun on the side, he didn't know Zhang Jun, but he saw the word "dawn" on Zhang Jun's sportswear.
"This classmate ......"
Zhang Jun remembered the journey of the qualifiers. Yuan Gang, Liu Peng, the unknown Captain Sunshine, Sima Hongxin, Mani, Fan Cunjie and Dingding, and Li Yongle, who went into battle with an injury...... He suddenly felt that there were so many people behind him, and if he gave up, they would definitely not be able to spare him, right?
"Luoyang actually has no shortage of excellent players, but there is always only one team that can qualify. We represent those who can't come, they used to be our opponents, but now they have our back, you say that there are so many people who support us, can we lose easily? So our goal is to ......"
"Aha! There is a reporter interview! It's rare! ”
As soon as you hear the voice, you know that Anke has returned victoriously.
Anke was in a good mood, and he was followed by Ren Yudi and other teammates who didn't say a word. Seeing that the reporter was interviewing, this cheeky person insisted on getting up, and then suddenly snatched the microphone in the reporter's hand, this move frightened the reporter, and when he wanted to take it back, it was too late, Anke put his face in front of the camera.
"Ahh Everybody listen to me! All participating teams beware! Because the dawn is coming!! ”
His loud voice echoed through the hall, and all eyes were on the tall man standing in front of the camera with his head held high with the microphone in hand, and his teammates behind him.
After lunch, the players sat in the hall, waiting for a while to take the car to the stadium, and the TV in the hall was playing the special program of the competition.
"Look! It's going to be me right away! Anke pointed to the screen and shouted triumphantly, now it was just the place to interview Zhang Jun.
But as soon as Zhang Jun finished speaking, the picture cut back to the studio. "Welcome to this show, and we'll see you in two hours!"
There was a loud burst of laughter from the team.
"Huh? Why is it gone? Impossible? I said it to the camera! ”
Ren Yu said softly on the side: "You think everyone is as stupid as you!" People don't know how to edit? ”
Anke was just about to go on a rampage when Sophie appeared in his field of vision, holding a string of ...... in her hand Amulet.
Zhang Jun took his own talisman, it turned out that she was doing this by locking herself in the house yesterday! So much, how long does she have to do......
One amulet per person, even Liang Ke and the substitutes have it, so careful and thoughtful, I'm afraid there is only Sophie.
Shanghai 80,000 Stadium, the home of Shanghai Shenhua of the A League. The opening ceremony and opening match of the 15th National High School Football Championship will be held here today.
The opening ceremony was the same.
The participating teams enter the stadium, and then the representatives of the players take the stage to speak and express their determination. The referee's representative made a speech and expressed his determination. Next, the team exited, and after a song and dance performance, a certain leader took the stage to speak and announced the opening of the 15th National High School Football Championship.
Fifteen minutes later, the players of the two teams of Dawn and Light were all standing on the field, waiting for the game to start. The other teams have almost stayed, and Guangming Middle School is the favorite to win the championship, so it is natural to study their first game.
Zhang Jun and Ren Yu stood on the serve point in the center circle, while Yang Pan stood on the right side, close to the center line.
Kaka stood parallel to Wang Ning and Li Hao - this was not a request of the coach, it was their own arrangement. He always thought about what Zhang Jun said to him before the game: "Since they all look down on us, let us use this goal to sound the alarm bell for them and tell them: the dawn is coming!" ”
"Good afternoon, all the viewers in front of the TV! CCTV, Shanghai TV is now on hand to broadcast the opening match of the 15th National High School Football Championship live for you! The two sides are Guangming Middle School, the last runner-up from Dalian and the top seed team of this competition, and Shuguang Middle School, which defeated the High School Affiliated to the University of Science and Technology for the first time from Luoyang! Now the race is about to begin! ”
There was a sudden silence in the stadium.
The referee put the whistle to his mouth and took a deep breath: "Toot-"
Zhang Jun knocked the ball to Ren Yudi, and then accelerated forward to rush forward, and Ren Yudi quickly passed the football back to Kaka behind.
Kaka receives the ball, adjusts it slightly, and then it's a long pass with a big foot! The soccer ball flies to the right side of the pitch!
"Ahh Dawn launched an attack with a long pass at the beginning, but it seemed that it was too rushed, and no one would catch the ball, and it would fly directly out of the bottom line...... Oh! No! Dawn's No. 7, the speed is so fast! ”
Yang Panxiang was speeding along the right side of the road like a high-speed train, and the football fell, and he also arrived just in time. A direct cross in front of the baseline!
At this time, Zhang Jun also slapped his horse to kill, he used his speed to shake off the defender, rushed to the goal, and then jumped high and hung the golden hook upside down!
"The ball is in! The ball is in! Just eight seconds into the game, Dawn scored! It's incredible! Bright all stupid! ……”
……
Watch out, the dawn is coming!
