Chapter 20: I'll see what I'm going to do for you!
The Bosnia and Herzegovina Cup is an open-ended cup competition.
Initiated by the Federation of BiH and directly responsible for and theoretically supporting a tournament in which all leagues participate.
Mostar Rangers, as a second division team, naturally met the qualifications to sign up for the competition.
In the first round of the Bosnia-Herzegovina Cup, which is a special and unrestricted format, they met Mostar Zlinski, who is playing in the Super League.
Mostar Zlinski is also a large team in Bosnia and Herzegovina, with not only a football team, but also basketball and handball.
But the football club is undoubtedly the one that has attracted the most attention.
However, compared to the glory of the 50s, Mostar Zlinjski suffered a certain shock during the breakup and turbulent years of the former Yugoslavia, and has been crushed by Sarajevo club since the establishment of the Bosnia and Herzegovina Premier League.
So far, the Bosnia and Herzegovina Premier League has ushered in its sixth edition, but their best result is second place, having not won a single title in the Bosnia and Herzegovina Premier League.
In the 2001/2002 season, they welcomed the head coach of the Netherlands, Fania Brown. Vansted Yak and instilled a new tactical concept into the team.
Fania. Vansteak is a Dutch all-attacking and all-defensive manager.
In order to implement his tactical philosophy, he made a series of tactical changes and squad selection in Mostar Zlinski, and decided to rebuild a team with championship impact at the core of Croatian talent Modric.
But the ideal is very full, but the reality is very backbone.
Vansteak's tactical philosophy did not execute smoothly in Mostar Zlinski.
From the very beginning, they hit a wall one after another, and even last season, they set a record low in the rankings, finishing the season in 5th place in the league.
It was arguably the worst season of Mostar Zlinski's history.
This result also made many fans unhappy, but the club still adhered to Vansted Yak's coaching philosophy, and believed that it was only one season and the manager needed to be given enough time.
Mostar Zlinjski's hierarchy is clearly patient, and this gives Vansteak a cushion.
But even so, Vanstedak still felt his head hurt.
The day of the match in the Bosnia and Herzegovina Cup.
Mostar Zlinski's home stadium, Zhilinsky Stadium.
Compared to the ranch stadium, the environment here is much better, and there are even fans in the stands, and the stadium situation is also incomparable to the ranch's potholed and almost cow-gnawed lawn.
Of course, the quality of the turf here is just as bad, but that's also compared to the teams in the big five leagues, at least in the eyes of Suker and others, everything here is not much better.
"This is the first round of the Bosnia-Herzegovina Cup between Mostar Zlinjski and Mostar Rangers, and this match is also the beginning of a new season, last season..."
The voice of the narrator can be heard from the loudspeaker in the dome, and the surrounding fans are also making neat cheers, and even singing voices are wafting.
These well-trained fans stand in stark contrast to the motley Mostar Rangers fans, and at least in Suker's opinion, their fans are staring at each other with wide eyes and bewildered looks.
The fans are like that, and the players are a little uncomfortable.
Under the noisy scene and violent cheers, the players of these Mostar Rangers who had never seen a big scene were obviously a little demoralized, and even a little afraid of battle.
Several guys were wearing their nervous socks backwards, and they were sweating profusely.
Not far away, the camera camera focused on them, sending the Mostar Rangers players with stiff and awkward smiles, their hands not knowing where to put them.
"It's stupid!"
Su Ke shook his head, these guys' psychological endurance is too weak, this kind of scene is scared like this, what kind of super league is this.
In contrast, bald goalkeeper Barkic has performed much better.
He calmly put on his goalkeeper uniform, put on gloves, and clenched his fists hard.
"Suke, shoot two kicks, I'll find the form!"
Hearing this, Su Ke immediately stood up, and the two walked to the court.
Suker had two shots in a row, which were both warm-ups, so he didn't have enough power and wasn't very angled.
Barkic made the save with ease.
Throwing the ball back, Barkic clenched his gloves again and said, "Push a little harder, I'll make a pity!" ”
Hearing this, Suker immediately adjusted his stance and added some force to kick the ball to the left.
Barkic stepped back to the left, jumped his feet, and made a standard sideways save to get the ball out of the air.
"Beautiful!"
Suke couldn't help but shout.
Since beating Leotar last time out, Barkic has been in excellent form, taking off less often and making good saves on a regular basis.
Barkic was also very happy with his save.
And this scene also gave the Mostar Rangers players a certain amount of confidence.
At this moment, the players of Mostar Zlinski began to warm up.
Wow!!!!!
There were cheers from the scene, and the players of Mostar Zlinski stood in a row and carried out warm-up exercises in a neat manner.
The neat clothes, the strong body and the confident expression undoubtedly give people a sense of toughness.
Even if these are just substitutes.
That's right, Mostar Zlinski doesn't want to waste his energy in such a game.
The main players want more rest and play full bench games for this.
But even if it is all on the bench, it will still be a tough battle for Mostar Rangers.
In Mostar Zlinski's bench, Suker saw the figure of Modric, who also looked at Suker and nodded slightly, which was regarded as a greeting.
Next to Modric sat a tall guy with brown curly hair, a tall nose and a large man of 190 centimeters.
This guy is Mostar Zlinski's high school striker, the team's top scorer, Kosopetki.
Mostar Zlinski's 18-man squad consists of only a few main players, with the rest all on the bench.
Clearly, Mostar Zlinski thinks even a full bench can win the game.
This is also the confidence of the Super League teams, after all, there is a big gap between the teams in the Super League and the First Division, let alone the teams in the Second Division.
Of course, Mostar Rangers have risen to the first division based on the reform of the competition system, but the strength is still the strength of the second division.
They don't think they're going to lose.
Starting lists for both sides.
Mostar Zlinski (4-3-3):
Goalkeeper: Pakovic.
Defenders: Stellck, Molić, Pokachi, Rovisec.
Midfielders: Banjafaci, Periaci, Barton.
Forwards: Boame, Basterov, Ben. Meiss.
...
Mostar Rangers (4-5-1):
Goalkeeper: Bakech.
Defenders: Kotic, Rotensmarch, Kobarro, Lawson.
Midfielders: Witolic, Baste, Mlinard, Kostoreć, Maslocic.
Forward: Suker.
'Mostar Zlinski came off the bench and obviously manager Vansteak didn't think it was a game to watch.
"Mostar Rangers are on our radar for the first time, a team that is very aggressive in attack... A team with Croatian legendary striker Davao. Suker's namesake striker Suker is their team's top scorer, Suker is only 16 years old this year, this 150cm tall center forward? ...”
The narrator's words were filled with interrogative sentences, and it was clear that this height problem was bothering him.
And this sentence was also conveyed to the whole stadium, and many fans in the stadium also saw Xiao Dou Ding Suk, they were surprised by the height of this little guy, after all, in the Bosnia and Herzegovina League, Modric's figure is already thin, let alone Suke's mini height.
"Bastard! It's 155 cm, it's grown! ”
Su Ke angrily clenched his fists in the direction of the commentary seat.
However, his voice obviously could not convey the past, so he could only turn his head with a chirp.
At the same time, the starters of Mostar Zlinski on the side also looked at Suke with curiosity.
Obviously, this height of the center gives them a lot of shock.
Off the field, Vansteak in the coach's box also looked at Suke in surprise, obviously remembering the chance encounter in the bar, the teenager who recommended himself to him.
It was a lot of fun at the time, but I forgot about it, and it was clear that Vansted didn't think Suker had the capital to play in the Super League.
But looking at such an alternative guy, his eyes couldn't help but attract him, and he was also curious about how Su Ke would play in the game.
Soon, after the captains of both sides guessed the edge, the two sides came to their respective halves.
Mostar Zlinski kicked off first.
Ogripe shouted off the pitch and constantly emphasised tight defensiveness.
Even before the start of the game, Olipe had already received the news that Mostar Zlinjski would be on the bench and also arranged his tactics accordingly.
Even in the limited data, the characteristics of the opposing substitute players are analyzed.
It can be said that during this preparation period, Olipe is very dedicated and hardworking, and his efforts have also made Mostar Rangers understand each other very well.
And for Mostar Zlinski, they are strangers to Mostar Rangers.
This can be seen from the other party's absent-minded eyes, they haven't looked at Su Ke and the others at all.
And this kind of look also made Su Ke and the others feel very uncomfortable.
"I'll give you some awesome things later!"
Suke swore secretly.
The referee pulled out of midfield, and the Mostar Zlinski strikers kicked off.
Full time starts.
After kicking off, Suker immediately started and plunged headlong at the ball.
Seeing Suker running in front, Mostar Zlinski's players were not nervous, after all, it was just one person and could not affect their passing at all.
The ball was getting on and on, and Suker was running and pressing.
The others retreated to the half-court and waited for the opposition to press forward.
Soon, Mostar Zlinisky began to attack along the flanks.
