Chapter 195: Intra-team match

Remember [New] for a second,! "Hey! Hey! Here and here!"
"Pass the ball!"
"mine!"
"Bang!"
At the first-team training ground of the Pirates of Madrid, the players are divided into two teams for the final confrontation training before the game against Real Cateron.
This is an 11 on 11 matchup.
The purpose is to use a close-to-actual confrontation to allow the players to adapt to the rhythm of tomorrow's game.
At the same time, players who performed well in this confrontation may also enter the competition roster.
Therefore, the intensity of this competition is indeed very close to actual combat.
After all, everyone wants to compete for a chance to make the big roster. Especially role players who are on the fringes of the main roster.
They are more motivated and more daring to fight than the main players.
Sometimes, in order to avoid injury, the main players do not perform as well as the fringe players in this kind of competition.
The muffled sound of "bang" just now was not the movement of someone hitting the football with the instep, but the substitute fullback Olaf Brinjorsson and the substitute midfielder Damian Daya had a pair of kicks on the pitch. . .
The referee's second assistant coach Enzo Nacher said nothing about it and did not blow the whistle to call one of the fouls.
Because this is a very common thing in the competition.
Even fighting for both sides didn't think it was a big deal. Diaya, who had fallen behind in the fight, got up from the ground and quickly plunged into the game.
The match against Real Cateron is a league game sandwiched between the Champions League quarter-finals. Because next week is the second leg of the quarter-finals, there will definitely be a rotation in this league.
Everyone works so hard, not just to be on the roster, but to be selected into the starting lineup during the rotation.
For the bench players, this kind of rotation is the stage for their full performance.
If you want to stand out, turn the tables against the wind, and change from a substitute to a starter, you have to seize the opportunity in the rotation game.
At the same time, because the season is coming to an end, the Madrid Pirates are competing with the King and Catalan for the league championship, while Real Cateron is not a generalist, they are fifth in the league. Therefore, even if the coaching staff is to be rotated in this game, it cannot be a large-scale rotation, but only in certain positions.
This results in a limited number of rotation players who can actually make it to the starting roster.
With more monks and less porridge, the competition in the competition has become more intense.
It's actually very easy to get injured at this time, so the entire team's medical team is outside the training ground, closely watching the field.
But it is impossible for the coaching staff to let everyone relax a little because they are afraid of players being injured - how can it be used for the purpose of examining the players' game status?
Besides, if you can't even stand the intensity of the competition in training, then what if you really fight with your opponent in the competition?
Do you expect the referee to favor protection?
※※※
Maxi Carey, wearing a yellow vest, retreated from the striker position to meet his teammates in midfield.
Wearing a yellow vest doesn't mean Kyrie will start the next game.
In the current competition, the color of the vest is only used as a sign to distinguish the two teams, and has no other meaning.
Forget about wearing yellow, even if you wear a rainbow vest, it doesn't help players get a chance to play other than to prove that you may be gay.
If you want to win the chance to play, it depends on the specific performance.
Carey had just received a pass from Damian Daya, and when he turned, he was closely pressed by Juan Ramirez.
Ramirez rammed unceremoniously, causing Kyrie to shake.
But he didn't lose the ball at his feet.
Not only did he not lose it, he also used Ramirez's collision to open up the space horizontally and complete the turn!
Ramirez followed, like a mad dog, biting Carey.
Teammates shouted at Kyrie on the wing with arms raised for him to pass the ball.
Carey turned a blind eye and insisted on dribbling the ball forward.
"It's a little sticky..." The first assistant coach Valentine, who was observing from the sidelines, frowned slightly.
Parrotti, who was beside him, shook his head and said, "No, he did it on purpose. He wanted to find the feeling of a real game in the confrontation with Juan."
※※※
Kyrie on the field just took two steps forward, and he suddenly buckled the football to the left with his right foot.
As he did this, Ramirez's foot poked in - if Kyrie slowed down, Ramirez would have poked the ball away.
And now Kyrie's buckle, but let Ramirez lose his balance.
He seemed to be struggling with the ball just now, which made Ramirez think there was an opportunity, but it was actually a flaw he deliberately sold.
His real purpose is to induce Ramirez to go first and throw him off balance.
Now he accelerates away from Ramirez, drives the ball to the goal, and then swings his right leg!
The central defender Amantegui in a blue vest came up and tried to block Kyrie's shot for the first time.
But Carey didn't shoot!
When his right leg swung down, he pushed the football out diagonally.
Amantegui jumped up and turned in the air, turned his back and tried to block the ball, but saw the football roll from his side to the space where he came up...
At the same time, Hu Lai ran diagonally to the empty space, raised his right foot in the face of the rolling football, and took a shot!
Goalkeeper Heywell's knees were like springs that were compressed to the extreme.
But Hu Lai's shot was a fake. After he buckled the football to the left, he shot with his left foot!
The football rolled past Heywell's feet and into the net.
Team Yellow scored a goal!
The Pirates players in yellow vests cheered.
The coaches on the sidelines also applauded.
"That's what you want to see, isn't it?" Valentine asked Parrotti, clapping his head and turning his head.
The latter had a smile on his face and was applauding the same: "I decided, Jesus. Next game against Real Cathoun, let Kyrie start."
※※※
After scoring the goal, Hu Lai turned and ran over and raised his arm to Kyrie.
Carey froze for a moment, then he asked, "Why?"
"Five high-fives to celebrate!" Hu Lai's hand hung in the air and shook. "Good news!"
Carey ignored him, turned and walked away.
Before leaving, he hummed: "What's there to celebrate against the goal in the team?"
Behind him, Hu Lai retracted his arms in embarrassment, then scratched his hair twice as if he was scratching his head.
Then he turned his head just in time to see the captain looking at him.
After noticing his gaze, the captain did not look away, but smiled at him and shrugged slightly.
So Hu Lai laughed too - what am I doing with the general knowledge of "pretending to be a criminal"?

After the training, after a recovery warm-up, the players stood on the training ground, waiting for the coach Parrotti to announce the final roster for the 18-man match.
Except for those who are sure to make it, everyone else's mentality is also different.
Some people hope to be selected for the big list, but some people think that even if they are on the big list, they will sit on the bench, and they are not very much looking forward to being on the big list.
Instead of watching the game on the bench, it is better to go to the reserve team to play the reserve team game, and still maintain the state of the game.
Parotti cast a glance at Carey before reading the list.
The Dutchman stood among his teammates with a calm expression on his face, as if he didn't care whether he could be included in the squad.
But his raised chest still somewhat betrayed his true thoughts - he was still looking forward to being selected.
Parrotti retracted his gaze and began to read out the names of the players who were selected for the match.
He reads from back to front by position on the field.
After the back line was read, everyone found that the main left-back Ion Martinez did not appear on the list, indicating that he would rest at home and prepare for the second leg of the Champions League quarter-final with Valendia.
He was replaced by Iceland international Olaf Brynjorsson.
Some personnel adjustments were also made in midfield, with captain Juan Ramirez resting and not making the squad.
Up front Hu Lai was selected, Ruiz was selected, but Di Kunzo was not selected, replaced by Maxi Carey.
"That's it. The players selected for the competition roster go home to pack up after training, and go to the Aurora Hotel to meet up by themselves. Get a good night's sleep, and play your best tomorrow for the game!"
After Parrotti read the list, he made a brief summary and announced his dissolution.
The players walked off the training ground in twos and threes and headed for the locker room.
Carey followed the crowd and wasn't overjoyed by being on the roster.
Being selected for the big roster is not uncommon for him to return from injury.
He could guess with his that even if he was selected for the roster, he would still have to sit on the bench during the game and wait for the right time to be substituted.
In the Champions League quarter-final against Valentia, Hu and the Italian will definitely be the starters. Di Kunzo was not selected for the league's roster at all, which means that he should replace Hu Lai in the game.
The only suspense may be how much playing time he will be given, whether it will be twenty minutes or thirty minutes.
If you get a chance to play, how do you play...
Carey thought about it and left the training ground silently.
Behind him, the head coach Parrotti withdrew his gaze from his back, and said to the assistant coach Valentine next to him: "He is quite calm."
"But he has a fire in his heart," Valentine said. "Including the Champions League game against Valentia, you made him in the squad for two games in a row, but didn't let him play. You really didn't plan to tell him in advance to start him. decision?"
"No plan." Parrotti nodded.
"Aren't you afraid of blowing him up?"
"Let him blow up on the field." Parrotti laughed. "I now have a little more confidence in competing for the league title. At the most critical time, a high-spirited and hungry Kyrie can help us share a lot of pressure."
"Okay...hopefully he gets detonated at the right time and in the right place, not in the locker room."
Valentine shrugged.
Carey has been so calm recently, so calm that he couldn't help but think about it, he always felt that this kid was holding back some big news.
For example, playing petty with Parrotti, refusing to play or something...
He had advised Parrotti to leave Kyrie alone after training, and then told him of his decision to start him, give him a reassurance first, and give him a good reassurance.
As a result, Parroti wanted to be pressed.
But don't play it off!
