Antonio has been annoyed lately, to be precise, he hasn't had a good time in a long time.

Antonio, who is about to enter his first year, has been with Maritimo for almost 20 years.

He has the purest Maritimo blood.

Fathers, grandfathers, uncles, and uncles were all port workers in Madeira, and Maritimo, who represents the working class, has been a belief in their family for generations, just like God.

No matter how hard life is, just going to the pub on the weekend to buy a cold beer and watch a Maritimo game on that 18-inch TV is the happiest thing in their lives.

He entered the youth academy in Maritimo at the age of 10, at first there were a lot of partners, but in the harsh training, more and more people left, some couldn't stand the hard work and took the initiative to leave, some couldn't keep up with the rhythm and passively eliminated, and he was the only one in that group of children who persevered to the end.

He was never the best, but he was the hardest working and the hardest on the pitch. Because he was deeply influenced by his father's eyes, he loved this team and dreamed of playing for this team one day.

How much he suffered, how many sins he suffered, and how much effort he put in more than others in order to realize his dreams!

He silently gritted his teeth and persevered, and when he couldn't stand it anymore, he went to church to pray to God, or used tattoos to alert himself, the pain of needles on his skin, to wake him up, let him remember his dreams and the hardships along the way.

It was with his unwavering belief in God and his unyielding determination that he persevered until the end, entered the first team at the age of 18, and stood out in one fell swoop, gradually growing into the main force of the team, becoming the backbone of the defense, and then becoming the captain and the boss of the team.

Now he is the representative of this club, and he is the transcendent existence of the club.

But in recent years, Antonio has become increasingly dissatisfied.

Maritimo was originally a Portuguese Super League team, and although they could not compete with the top three, they could at least remain in the middle of the league for a long time, and occasionally reach European qualifiers.

As a representative of the poor, Maritimo has no money, but he has always lived on his own terms, insisting on a localization strategy, looking for gifted children in Madeira, training them to become excellent players, and contributing to the club in batches.

This way of survival, although it can't be rich and rich, but at least it is alive and well, making this poor team rooted in Madeira very happy

There are thousands of poor children in Madeira who see Antonio himself as an idol, a target and a hero, hoping to one day be like him at the Dos Barores Stadium.

However, such a dream is becoming more and more difficult to realize, and the Portuguese Super League has no restrictions on foreign players, and the field is filled with more and more foreign players.

These foreign players don't belong here, they are just mercenaries, they don't have the slightest sense of belonging, they just use this place as a springboard to jump to the five major leagues!

The existence of foreign aid has compressed the living space of local young people, and those poor Madeira children need to face the competition of the world, and it is becoming more and more difficult to stand out.

And with the influx of foreign players, an even more terrible threat followed, and that was foreign capital.

Antonio watched as foreign capital became a bloodthirsty beast, entering one Portuguese club after another, sucking their blood dry, then throwing off their shriveled shells and looking for new prey.

Antonio was worried, panicked, anxious, scared, but could not do anything about it.

As a devout believer, he prayed to God more than once to expel these messengers of Satan and pagans with bad intentions, but instead of having an effect, his prayers became a habitat for evil forces.

After the Chinese capital bought Maritimo, the team began a tragic fate.

First, a large number of low-quality Chinese players poured in, squeezing out the opportunities for Madeira's children to play and stay in the team.

And the team's record has inevitably been affected, from the previous top five European places, all the way down, until the last round of last season, with a goal difference, barely became the third from the bottom, worthy of relegation.

And even more terrible than the record is the chaos of the team.

The contradictions between Chinese capital and the local forces in Portugal are irreconcilable, the club's management is fighting with each other, the development goals are confused, and no one really thinks about this team.

The coach has changed three times in two years, but instead of stopping the club's decline, it has become worse and worse.

Now it's even more broken, and I actually found a Chinese son whose hair hasn't grown yet, is the club ready to give up treatment completely?!

Thinking of that Chinese son, Antonio had a strange feeling in his heart.

At first, he was very angry, thinking that the Chinese capital was crazy, and actually brought a child to be the head coach of the Portuguese Super League team.

Soon, he learned about the coach's resume. The youngster led an obscure academy team to win the São Paulo State Championship.

In addition to being surprised, I was a little disapproving, thinking that there must be a high-ranking person behind the back, or the full support of capital, otherwise it is impossible to do it with just a young man with no professional experience, not to mention, he is only a Chinese!

As soon as this Chinese arrived, he actually made an incident of spitting reporters, which deepened Antonio's impression of this young man's unreliability, but this straightforward character was in line with his temperament.

After that, it was the confrontation game, and it was a bit unreliable to arrange the confrontation as soon as the training resumed, but he still fought as the court as always, and he played well in the first quarter, but he was abused by a group of children in the fourth quarter.

He was very angry and felt that the Chinese coach must have come on purpose, to come prepared, and deliberately humiliate their old players.

Therefore, he did not give the young man named Gao Yuan a good face in the locker room.

However, what he never dreamed of was that this pagan from the East would come up with such a deceptive rumor that he was sent by God, and if the other party himself was sent by Satan, then he might still believe it, but God sent an Oriental to save his team? That's not how the joke works!

That night, Antonio regretted very much why he didn't punch the Chinese in the face, and he even ran to the church the next morning to confess to God, and he didn't resolutely fight against the evil way.

However, when he arrived at the training ground, the Chinese coach mysteriously came to his side, and before he got angry, he said something inexplicable.

"To prove my part, God will perform miracles on you in training!"

Could it be that this kid is really crazy? It is very likely that there is severe psychosis plus paranoia, and if he hadn't escaped from a severe mental hospital, he probably wouldn't have been able to do the stupid thing of spitting out the reporter's chewing gum!

But that's exactly what happened!

In the team's physical fitness test, Antonio's 100-meter speed actually reached 10.58 seconds!

You know, he has never been a player who is known for his speed, and when he was young, he had to take 13 seconds at the fastest!

His heart was pounding, so that his teammates were surrounding him for something, and he didn't hear a word, and in a daze, he only remembered that the Chinese was looking at him with a smile.

It must be a coincidence, yes, it must be ...... Luckily......

Second, the Chinese found him again, and this time his heart trembled violently.

"Don't you believe it? There will be more miracles in God's training! ”

On the training ground, he was suddenly very eager to rush to the front court to attack.

You must know that as a defensive player, he has always been very aware of his own position and never rushes in.

But today's strong attack** is like the confusion of the bloody qi on the shark, so that he can't control himself.

He couldn't suppress his desire, and unconsciously broke through to the front, and he was still able to get by!

He never dreamed in his life that such a thing as having 5 people in a row would happen to him one day!

"Don't you believe me?" After the game, the Chinese asked again.

Delusion, it must be an illusion! I don't believe it!

"Naming's training, you go on!"

In this way, for several consecutive days, Antonio's Shangdu had a completely different vision than before!

Antonio is very rigid on the surface, but he is very square in his heart, and he will not be calm if such a thing happens to anyone. What's more, Antonio is also a devout believer.

"God, is that really a man you sent? I don't believe it, but what about those miracles? Please give me a revelation! "Antonio's painful prayer in the church.

A few years later in the locker room.

"Still don't you believe it?"

"You're the devil! The changes that happened to me were all devil's witchcraft! ”

God's patience is also limited. Since positive miracles do not impress you, then taste God's punishment! ”

In this training, Antonio seems to have completely lost his athletic ability, no speed, no stamina, outrageous long passes, amazing short passes, full of mistakes in judging the landing point of the ball, and the header was smashed in the face!

Antonio sat depressed in the locker room until everyone had showered and changed clothes and left.

He waited in his heart, as if he was waiting for his fate to read Xuanniu

Sure enough, I don't know how long later, the Chinese entered the locker room.

"Do you know what's wrong?"

"What the hell have you done to me? Why doesn't my body listen to me at all! ”

"It's not me, it's God! He told me to punish duplicitous false believers! ”

"No, I don't believe it, how could he find an Eastern atheist who has not even read the Bible as a messenger!"

Gao Yuan sighed, "Alas, it turns out that you don't believe that God is everywhere!" ”

Antonio was silent.

"Let me tell you a story. There was a flood in one village, and the rest of the people fled, and only the pious priest did not want to leave the church.

When people tell him to go, God will come to my rescue!

When the water overflowed the steps of the church, the villagers rowed a boat to pick up the priest, but the priest refused, God will definitely come to my rescue!

When the water overflowed the glass of the church, the rescuers came to the rescue in an assault boat, but he refused again, God will definitely come to my rescue!

The water grew bigger and bigger, and finally it flooded the roof of the church, and the priest stood on the roof, but still refused the helicopter that came to the rescue, God will definitely come to my rescue!

In the end, unfortunately, the priest drowned.

In the church, he saw God.

He angrily accused, I am Rutz religious, why don't you come to rescue me!

God is helpless, I have already sent a boat, an assault boat and a helicopter to the rescue! I've saved you three times and you've refused, what do you want me to do? ”

After listening to this story, Antonio was stunned, as if he was chewing on the deep meaning behind this story.

"God, if you believe it, if you don't believe it, you don't have it, since deep down in your heart you resist God's existence, then God won't force it, so let everything be as usual!"

Over, Gao Yuan snapped his fingers.

At that moment, Antonio suddenly felt that his form was back, and although he was not on the court, the familiar feeling took over again!

Gao Yuan didn't say anything more, turned and prepared to leave.

"Wait!" Antonio's voice sounded behind him.

When Gao Yuan looked back, he saw the evil man full of tattoos crawling at his feet.

"O angel of God! Please forgive me! I want to be your faithful disciple! ”

Antonio was prostrate on the ground reverently, and suddenly felt a pair of hands grab his shoulders and pull him up.

"Antonio, from now on, you are my knight, let us complete the important task of revitalizing Maritimo together!"
