Chapter 168: Hot Saudi Arabia

At this time, the weather in Saudi Arabia was still relatively hot, and the Spring City players who had just gotten off the plane could feel a heat wave coming.

Feeling the hot wind blowing on his body, Chen Song's brows couldn't help frowning. The weather in Saudi Arabia is quite different from the weather in China, and such a genius undoubtedly makes the Spring City team playing away from home even worse.

He glanced back at his players, and when he saw the players frowning like him, Chen Song had a very ominous premonition in his heart.

"Fortunately, we left two days early, and the players still have ......time to adapt to the hot weather," Chen Song thought, taking the lead in setting foot on the hot soil of Saudi Arabia.

For the country of Saudi Arabia, the Spring City team is relatively unfamiliar from the coaching staff to the players, and if it is really said, this is the first time they have come to Saudi Arabia to fight.

In the past, the Spring City team rarely made it to the round of 16 of the AFC Champions League, and they did not meet a team from Saudi Arabia in the group stage, so this campaign is the first time for the Spring City team.

The players were not well adapted to the weather and environment in Saudi Arabia, but Chen Song had the foresight to lead the team to this strange country two days early.

The Springs staff had already arranged everything in Saudi Arabia and the players then checked into the hotel that the team had arranged for them.

As soon as they entered their rooms, the players couldn't wait to turn on the air conditioning in the room. From the airport to the hotel, just this short distance, the players were hot and sweaty.

"Holy. It's too hot, it's about the same as when we were at the hottest in China. Luo Ming still shared a room with Lin Qi, and he kept complaining in Lin Qi's ear.

"That can't be helped, let's get used to it. Luckily, we played at night, otherwise we would have had to suffer from heat stroke. Lin Qi casually held a piece of cardboard in his hand, using it as a fan to cool himself down.

"How do we train in such a hot weather?" Luo Ming looked at the high sun outside and couldn't help but feel a little worried.

The weather was so hot that the players were very tired. Luo Ming's worries are not unreasonable. In such a hot weather, the Quancheng team was indeed unable to train effectively.

Although they rented the stadium before they came to Saudi Arabia, the rent was destined to be wasted, and they simply couldn't go out in such hot weather. Not to mention outdoor training.

Lin Qi's brows furrowed slightly. I don't know if it's hot or if he, like Luo Ming, is worried about the situation of the Spring City team.

"Let's do it in the evening. Anyway, the game is also in the evening, so it shouldn't be so hot at night. After a long while, Lin Qi said a little deflated.

The hot weather in Saudi Arabia is truly discouraging. Even Lin Qi, who is known as a top student on the court, can only choose to train at night.

He only hopes that the nights in Saudi Arabia will be slightly cooler.

After staying in the hotel for a whole day, Chen Song did not arrange any training, and the players hid in their own rooms, enjoying the cold breeze blowing from the air conditioner.

Only Lin Qi appeared in the gym of the hotel at this time, since he couldn't train outdoors, he should exercise his body in the gym.

Lin Qi is no stranger to the gym, and now he retains very good training habits, and every week Lin Qi will take time out to train himself in the gym for strength.

Lin Qi stayed in the gym until the evening before leaving, and he had already received Chen Song's notice. At half past six in the afternoon, the players were going to the Etihad stadium for field adaptation training.

The second round of this quarter-finals will be held at seven o'clock tomorrow night, so this evening is the perfect time for the Springs team to do adaptation training.

The players took the bus to the Etihad stadium together, and they could see the lights in the stadium from a distance, and the Etihad team chose to have a training session tonight.

The arrival of the Spring City team did not surprise the players of the Etihad team, who had already received the news of the early arrival of the Spring City team in Saudi Arabia.

It's just that the Springs team didn't go out all day, which made the Etihad players feel a little funny.

Didn't the Springs team arrive early to adapt to the weather in Saudi Arabia? But you're hiding in the hotel one by one, and you're still getting used to it.

The Etihad players looked at the Springs players with a hint of contempt in their eyes. They don't think that these pampered Quancheng players will be able to adapt to the weather in Saudi Arabia, although tomorrow's game will be played in the evening, but the night in Saudi Arabia will be hotter than the noon in China.

For this, the players of the Spring City team already felt it the moment they arrived on the field. In this hot and dry weather, they all looked listless, and even the field adaptation training was quite difficult.

Lin Qi, who was the only hard-working player, was also stopped by Chen Song, the head coach of the Quancheng team, who didn't want Lin Qi to faint from heat stroke before the game started.

In the face of the hot weather in Saudi Arabia, Chen Song really had no good way, so he could only hurriedly end the field adaptation training and let the players go back to rest early.

The purpose of the field adaptation training is to familiarize yourself with the grass of the Etihad team's stadium, and from this point of view, the Springs team has achieved their goal, so there is no need to continue the training.

The Spring City team, who left early, was ridiculed by the Etihad team, and when the Spring City players left the field, some of the Ittihad players sneered.

"It's really a pampered group of sheep, they can't even bear this kind of weather, what will they do tomorrow to race."

"I don't think they're trying to turn the tables on the road, even if it's not so hot, Springs won't be able to beat us on our home turf!"

"Yes, this time it will be our Ittihad who will advance to the quarterfinals of the AFC Champions League, not the Spring City team!"

The Etihad players are full of confidence for tomorrow's game, and after seeing the attitude of the Spring team in training today, their confidence is even stronger.

In their opinion, the trip of the Spring City team is just a soy sauce, and they have already conceded defeat in front of the powerful Ittihad......

Listening to the ridicule of the Etihad players, a huge sense of powerlessness rose in the hearts of the Spring City players, they did not want to admit defeat in this game, but this hot weather was like a raging flame, and the fighting spirit of the Spring City players was burned into nothing......
