Chapter 121: Football Match
After the eye exercises in the afternoon, Dong Zixuan, Chen Jiabao and Zhang Yuxin immediately ran back to Class 8.
"I agreed with Class 7 that we would have a farewell game before graduation on Sunday afternoon. Our eight classes formed a football team and volunteered. Sign up with me, and then we'll line up! Dong Zixuan said to everyone.
As soon as Wu Haotian heard this information, he immediately raised his head, but then he knelt on the table and closed his eyes to recuperate.
The male students heard that there would be a football match before graduation, and they were all eager to try. They all rushed to sign up.
Zixuan said: "However, let's play football, we can't play the whole class!" Let's weigh your own personal qualities! - It's not as fast as a duck, so don't follow it! β
Chen Jiabao slapped Zixuan and said, "Can you accumulate some virtue?" What do you mean by 'not as fast as a duck'? Are you so buried? Besides, how can there be so many fast runners in our class? β
"Isn't Haotian the best striker? With his speed, he is tired of seven shifts, and they can't catch up! Li Daqi said, "Jiabao, do you dare to compare your speed with Haotian?" β
"Why do you want me to compare with Haotian? Besides Zixuan, who of you is faster than him? If he is not fast, he will not be allowed to play, can our class still be on the team? - Safflower also needs green leaves! Isn't it okay for me to be a defender and defend? Jiabao approached Haotian and said, "Haotian, what position do you play?" - Can't I stagger you? β
Wu Haotian said: "You don't have to think about me! I...... No. β
"Wu Haotian, what are you kidding? If you don't get it, we are short of people in the front line, how can we play this ball? Isn't that waiting to lose? Zi Xuan was anxious when he heard this.
"I ...... Can't play football! It's also running around, and there's no kung fu on your feet. Haotian said.
Zhao Junyi said: "Who can really kick? Which of us is trained? Just play! Your speed is an absolute advantage! I dare sayββ, even if the opponent runs with the ball, with your speed, it is enough to scare him into losing the ball! β
"Don't lift me up! I don't know how many pounds and taels I have? β
"Haotian, this is your fault! Our class is counting on you! - Jerseys are ready - No. 9, this is the striker's jersey! Zixuan said, "Jiayi, where's the jersey?" β
Lu Jiayi put the jersey and a full set of equipment on Wu Haotian's table, and said, "Zixuan is bought according to your size, you don't need it, and others can't wear it!" Besides, this is a high school farewell game, and if you go back to middle school, what a pity if you haven't even played a game of football! β
Wu Haotian stroked the No. 9 number on his jersey, he was very excited, and his eyes were red.
Lu Jiayi carefully observed Wu Haotian's reaction, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
Dong Zixuan, Li Daqi, Zhao Junyi, Chen Jiabao and others were very pleased.
Dong Zixuan walked to the blackboard, picked up the chalk, and drew a formation on the blackboard: "In this way, I will guard the door." Two defenders: Chen Jiabao and Li Daqi. On the forward line, let's arrange four people: Wu Haotian, Dong Xiaotong, Xu Yaofeng and Zhu Shibo, the four of you are fast, and you will quickly attack when you get the opportunity. We can't work our feet, dribble less, pass the ball more, and shoot when we see the opportunity. - Actually, their skills are not better than ours! The middle four: Zhang Yuxin, Zhang Long, Fuquan and Jin Ding, you have good endurance, run more before and after, not only to assist, especially when the back line is tight, you have to return to defense in time. β
Wu Haotian's eyes lit up when he heard it, and Lu Jiayi saw it in his eyes and smiled happily. secretly gave Dong Zixuan a thumbs up. You must know that in order to arouse Haotian's desire, these contents are also carefully planned by them.
Seeing Haotian and Jiayi's reactions, Zixuan was also extremely happy, and spoke more and more energetically: "As for the specific position, who is on the left and who is on the right, you can discuss it yourself." Hongjia, Dongxu, Liu Wei, Li Nan, Brother Chao, you are always there. Everyone should be able to see that our formation is mainly attacking. - We are determined to win this battle! β
"Victory!"
"If you don't succeed, you will be benevolent!"
"If you don't win a big victory, you won't withdraw your troops!"
β¦β¦
The students are really excited!
Wu Haotian also applauded excitedly! He picked up his jersey and tears were about to fall!
Since he was a child, whenever he saw other children playing football, he only watched with envy, and sometimes he didn't even have the freedom to watch. Now, when I am about to graduate, I have fulfilled my dream by fighting side by side with these close partners and running wild to my heart's content! He held his jersey tightly in his arms!
After a period of restlessness in the class, the contradiction came!
"Dong Zixuan, why are you guarding the door? I'm 'Chiravit'! Qi Bing was first dissatisfied.
Dabian and Han Shuo also want to fight for the goalkeeper.
"You're still 'Chiravit'? You're not much as wide as Chiravit! In terms of your height and flexibility, which point can you compare with the door god? You might as well blow it bigger, and it's called 'Zidane'! Anyway, it's all your old Qi family! Bian Kehui sarcastically finished Qi Bing and protested to Dong Zixuan, "However, the goalkeepers have always been me and Han Shuo!" Our jerseys are all goalkeeper jerseys! Aren't you Dong Zixuan robbed? β
"Playing basketball and picking up rebounds, can you beat me? - You two will be my replacements! Dong Zixuan looked at Dabian with provocative eyes.
Han Shuo said: "Goalkeeping doesn't have to be a high ball, right? If it's boccia, do you dare to say you're more flexible than me? β
"That's it! Don't fight! - It's hard to say whether the goalkeeper will be able to use it at that time! When they couldn't hold each other, Wu Haotian's words made the three of them speechless!
Oh, yes! Offense is the best defense! Only the underdog has the goalkeeper a chance to show.
"Haotian is right! - The weak team goes out of the door! Besides, Zixuan, don't we have a class teacher in our class? Are you still taking me seriously? It's up to me to decide everything! "Minghao didn't know when he came in.
β¦β¦
Finally, on Sunday afternoon, the students entered the court early to start warming up. Some female students simply didn't go home at noon, and their preparation was comparable to that of a professional cheerleader. There are not only inflatable plastic sticks, hand-cranked cheering flowers, colored balls, streamers, and hand-held signs. Han Mengmeng and Zhao Ying also bought a few small speakers for children to play with.
Everything is ready, only the east wind is owed.
The players on both sides are active in the field, and the cheerleaders are competing first, and it seems that they really want to "take the lead".
Du Tao said: "Your class is strong enough!" Why didn't you get a big drum? After saying that, he regretted it, because the big drum of the eighth class during the sports meeting was borrowed by Wen Min.
"Do we still use drums?" Ming Hao said, "Let's be referees, right?" It's good to control the situation on the field. β
"That's what I thought too! But β after 90 minutes, you're fine! I'm afraid I won't be able to get up tomorrow! Du Tao said.
β¦β¦
At this time, Wu Haotian came to the stadium with his jersey and other equipment.
"Haotian, why haven't you changed your costume yet? Come on! You have to be active! Dong Zixuan reminded.
"I ...... Not anymore! Aren't there so many people in our class? It's not a ...... for me," Haotian handed over the jersey to Zixuan, turned around and ran back to the teaching building.
Dong Zixuan slammed his clothes on the ground: "It's time for this, still don't play!" - Isn't it all in vain? β
Seeing Wu Haotian running away, the classmates in Class 8 immediately fell silent!
Zixuan was right! Although everyone also likes to play football, in the final analysis, it is to let Wu Haotian really cheer up. He's gone, so what's the point of the game?
"Zixuan, you take everyone to practice first! I'll check it out! After Ming Hao finished speaking, he picked up his jersey and returned to the teaching building.
Wu Haotian returned to the classroom, stood alone in front of the window, looked at the classmates on the court, and tears flowed involuntarily.
Yesterday, it was the 100-day sacrifice of his mother Wu Yan. Afraid of affecting Haotian's mood, grandma didn't dare to take Haotian to the funeral home to worship, but secretly burned some paper money at the intersection near her home at night.
It is heartbreaking for a white-haired person to send a black-haired person, not to mention that the old man has not seen his daughter for more than ten years, and his daughter died so miserably! The old man was crying while burning paper, and he fainted on the side of the road. It was the neighbor who found out and sent the old man home.
Seeing his grandmother like that, Haotian couldn't help but be grieved, and the old and the young cried opposite each other. A daughter who misses her hard-working and early death, and a mother who mourns her bumpy journey! No one slept well this night!
Seeing the jersey on the bed, Haotian seemed to see his mother's angry look! If the mother were still alive, would she allow her son to play football? The answer is clear! - Nothing like this will be allowed! Haotian subconsciously touched his knee, it was after secretly going out from home to participate in the relay competition of the sports meeting, in order to prevent his mother from cutting his wrists, he knelt on the broken glass! The wound is healed, but the scar is still there.
β¦β¦
"Haotian!" Ming Hao came to the classroom, "What's wrong?" Wouldn't it be nice to go down and have fun with everyone? β
"I ...... Can't go! Haotian wanted to try to hold back his tears, but the moment he saw Minghao, the tears were like beads with broken threads, rolling down in an instant.
Ming Hao put his jersey on the windowsill and said, "When everyone played football in the past, I could see that you also wanted to participate. No, the jerseys that Zixuan and Jiayi specially chose for you are hoping that you can complete this farewell match with everyone! If you miss this competition, won't you have regrets in your middle school life? β
"Actually......, I know that everyone's good intentions are to cheer me up. But ......, if I'm going to play football, I'm ...... I'm sorry mom! Haotian sobbed and said, "My mother has suffered so much for me!" In the end, even his life was taken! I...... You can't betray my motherββ! After saying this, Haotian howled and cried!
"So,ββ are you going to live your mother's life as your mother asked you to live?" Ming Hao asked.
"What can I do? - When I saw this jersey, I remembered how angry my mother was! - I want to forget about the past! However, forgetting the past, isn't it betraying my mother? - I don't know what to do? β
