Chapter 54: The List After Nightfall
Near dusk.
Granada, a TV station, sports studio.
Two men in suits and leather shoes, one left and one right, sat in front of the studio, their faces were concentrated, and they folded their hands and meticulously flipped through the white texts on the stage.
"Count down tens of seconds, ready!" The director of the show shouted.
When the two men received the reminder, they immediately put down the white text in their hands, straightened their bodies, and raised their heads to look ready.
Ten seconds have passed, and the program director didn't make a sound, just waved his right hand lightly beside him, signaling the program to "start~!" ”
Immediately, the two men's mouths moved, and they began to explain the content of the program one after another.
"Dear fans! Hello everyone! Welcome to the live broadcast of the third round of the Copa del Rey race! Tonight's match is Granada hosting Atletico Madrid! ”
"That's right! Because the third round of the game is a win-or-lose rule, the winner of tonight can directly advance to the fourth round! ”
"Hmmm! Although the Granada team has the home advantage, the overall form of the Atletico Madrid team has been excellent recently, so a conservative analysis shows that the Granada team's style of play in this game may not be the main attack. ”
"Yes! Coupled with the bad news from the Granada team before the game, midfield star Kabine seems to be injured, which can pose a problem for Coach Corboni! ”
"As for Atletico Madrid, they have won all four of their recent Champions League and La Liga matches, and tonight they visited the Carmenez Stadium with such momentum, I believe the fans of the Granada team are very worried!"
"Although Coach Corboni had said before the season that the team's goal this season was to win the Champions League, in the last two league games, Granada have won one and drawn one, and unexpectedly grabbed four points, which may make Coach Corboni think that the team will go further this season......
"Hmm~! Not to mention grabbing four points in the league, let's talk about the French star Carbine, who scored three goals in two battles, and his excellent performance surprised everyone! ”
"It's a pity that it's still unknown whether Kabine will play in this battle......"
"Hmm~! If he's out, we won't see Shadugir go head-to-head with him! ”
"The media also made a lot of noise about the match before the match, and the content was mainly around the matchup between the two rising stars......
"Let's talk about Shadugir, the favorite for this year's European Golden Boy Award. As such, the German star has already scored 12 goals for Atletico Madrid on all fronts at the halfway point of the season, and the current list of achievements for a 20-year-old is nothing short of impeccable......
"Yes~! If this state of competition continues, I am afraid that Atletico Madrid will not be able to retain Shadugir next summer! ”
"Hmm~! However, it is really difficult to speculate on where Shadugir will stay next summer, because there are so many big clubs interested in making an offer for him......
At this time, the director of the program gestured behind the camera and gave the command to end the first round of commentary, and the live broadcast commentator understood, smiled, and said, "Okay! Dear fans! We'll take a break, and after the commercial, when we get back to the show, we'll announce the starting line-ups for both sides and give you a detailed pre-match analysis, and we'll see you later......"

It's dusk.
Carmenez Stadium, home team dressing room.
Inside, the team's back-office staff have placed the players' gear in their changing positions.
Jerseys, shorts, socks, sneakers, guards, wristbands......
All of them are placed in a very upright place, like an obsessive-compulsive person, and no objects are allowed to be crooked by half a centimeter.
Outside the locker room, there was a sound of hurried footsteps, and it seemed that there were no less than twenty people coming.
"~~Boom~~" The door to the locker room was opened, and all the players of the Granada team stepped into the locker room one by one.
As soon as the players entered, they began to look for their changing spots and sat down.
When all the players walked into the dressing room, they were followed by the coaching staff, followed by the team of doctors.
All the participants arrived, and the door to the locker room was slowly closed.
"That's it! Hurry up and change into your race gear! Then the captain Fisk led everyone out to the stadium to warm up. Coach Corboni said as soon as he walked into the locker room and put down his bag.
The players were very obedient, took the instructions, and hurriedly changed their clothes.
Coach Corboni was very satisfied with the cooperation of the players, nodded slightly, and with a solemn face, he walked slowly to the front of Carbine, and said, "Change the equipment first......
That's all there is to it, and then a few steps away.
Although the words were short, Kabine was very understanding, nodded slightly, and obediently changed into battle equipment.
The squirrel sitting next to him, while wearing socks, asked, "Decided?" ”
Kirbine turned his head: "I won't change my mind!" ”
Although this sentence is also short, the firmness and irretrievable determination in Kirbine's eyes are clear in the eyes of the squirrel.
Looking deeper, the squirrel knew that all Cabine wanted to say was my friend's words! Don't dissuade it any further!
The squirrel sighed, put on his socks, and began to put on his sneakers again.
Regarding Kabine's decision, Mr. Haas expressed his support in yesterday's phone call, which made Kabine very happy.
He understands! Mr. Haas gets it, too!
Although it is not too late for him to become famous in European football, he has walked side by side with Mr. Haas along the way, and only he and Mr. Haas have tasted various feelings.
"Go ahead! Youngster! Go do what you want to do! Mr. Haas's words on the phone were not complicated in terms of meaning, but this sentence struck into Kirbine's heart.
His stubborn persistence broke up Coach Corboni's hesitation and got the result he wanted.
"Before you start tomorrow, remember to bring a dose of painkillers!" So, Coach Corboni said to the team doctor.
The team doctor's expression was not too surprising, because the [painkiller] to relieve muscle pain is to be carried before every competition. But Coach Corbony's words, he also understands it very well......
----- coach Corboni finally compromised, was he afraid of Atletico Madrid's attack? Or don't you want to bury what little talent you have in Kirbyne? Or is he also eager to see the matchup between Kabine and Shadugir?
Anyway, Kabine asked for a painkiller and got a chance to play.

"Knock~Knock~Knock~~"
There was a knock on the locker room door, and as soon as the voice fell, the door was pushed open, and a match deacon leaned in halfway and said, "Hello! Please be prepared to send a captain to the referee's room to hand in the starting line-up for the game. ”
Coach Corboni said, "Hmm~! Good! Go now! ”
The deacon chuckled, closed the door, and withdrew.
Immediately, Coach Corboni walked to the square position of the locker room and said, "Okay! Have you changed your game gear? After the change, hurry up and go out to the stadium with captain Fisk to warm up, and when we come back, we will explain the tactical arrangement! ”
"~Huh~~~" The players roared in unison, clapped their palms, pulled their legs, and bounced on the ground, and walked out of the locker room.
Before captain Fiske walked out of the dressing room, Coach Corboni handed him a blank sheet of paper and said: "This is the starting list, before you go to the stadium to warm up, you go to the referee's room to hand in this list." ”
Fisk let out an "oh~~" sound, and out of a basic reaction, he looked at the names on the starting list.
Who knew it, he grinned, looked at Coach Corboni again, but didn't say anything more, and walked out of the locker room.
All the players have gone to warm up.
In the dressing room, there was coach Corboni and his coaching team, plus two team doctors and Carbine......
Kabine sat quietly on the sidelines, breathing at a chaotic pace, waiting for the team doctor's arrangement.
The locker room was exceptionally quiet, and the sound of the team doctor opening the medical box was very strange in such an environment.
The team doctor's hands kept tipping over inside the medical kit, and it wasn't long before he walked towards Kabine, holding a small transparent needle between his fingers.
As soon as he arrived, he said, "You have to inject ...... 30 minutes before the game."
Kirbine stared at the dark yellow fluid in the syringe, exhaled, and then asked, "This drug doesn't conflict with the drug test regulations of the Football Association, right?" ”
The team doctor replied, "No! You can rest assured of this! ”
Kabine nodded and said, "Good! Let's go! ”
The team doctor took the idea, gently pressed the position of the ankle of Kirbyne's right foot with his left hand, clamped the needle with the index finger and middle finger of his right hand, pierced the needle under the skin, and then pressed the injection handle with the thumb of his right hand to inject the dark yellow fluid into the upper part of the ankle in Kirbyne......
After a few seconds, the team doctor pulled out the needle and said to Kabine: "Fortunately, the swelling of the injured patient is not large, otherwise even if the painkiller is injected, it will not have much effect, and finally remind you that the painkiller only has a three-hour effect!" ”
Kabine said, "Excuse me! ”
The team doctor just smiled, took the needle and walked away.
At this time, Coach Corboni, who had been on his side, walked up to Kirbine and said: "Although you have a painkiller injection, you also have to protect your ankle to avoid getting worse." ”
Kabine looked up and said, "Coach! When it comes to competition, some things are hard to avoid! ”
Coach Corboni said, "Oh~~? What do you mean ......? ”
Kabinet replied verbatimously: "Since you have taken the risk and taken another painkiller shot, why not fight with all your might to complete the meaning behind this decision?" ”
Upon hearing this, Coach Corboni was taken aback, shook his head and said, "You're really crazy......
It's past dusk, and it's nightfall.
Inside the PE studio.
The live broadcast commentator held a small manuscript in his left hand, and said to the camera of the camera: "Okay! Dear fans! The starting line-ups for both sides have been released, and unlike the initial estimates, Granada's Cabine will start the game......"
