Born to be a coach [soccer]

Howard Webb also did not expect that he would one day simulate players playing football in "Life in the Green", and at the same time, another player was simulating as the referee.

——What if the other party blows nonsense?Urgent, wait online!

——If the punishment is unfair, should he protest?Waiting online, come to someone!

The reason why Weber chose to log into "Green Life" today was somewhat touched.After the game, he repeatedly watched the video of the game and determined that today's penalty kick should not have been a penalty kick——

What should the punished player do?It must be a protest!What should I do if I protest? ...

Weber remembered the captain who was sent off by him today, walked into the player tunnel alone, covered his head with his jersey, but he still couldn't stop the sighs from behind him, and his goal was captured by the opponent.Webber can understand the grievance of the captain: since the ball was not a penalty, there is no reason for the captain of Sunderland to be sent off.

However, Weber still thinks that his judgment is correct. He admits that the referee is also a human being, not a machine with 360-degree observation without blind angles.

What kind of referee is a good referee?Weber asked himself.

just? ——That's a must. A blatant black whistle like that in the 2002 World Cup will only embarrass the entire industry of referees.

But for the sake of justice, must all foul actions be caught?It’s not all like this, if all the tricks have to be blown, then don’t play the game, just hear the referee blowing the whistle for the whole game——Football games must at least ensure a certain degree of fluency, otherwise the viewing experience will be greatly reduced.

Just like in the game earlier today, Sunderland's fouls against Tottenham and Tottenham's players were small actions. Although they were annoying, they did not meet the standard of whistleblowing.In contrast to Sunderland, their players may be more eager and move more, so they will naturally hit the referee's gun - of course, Weber feels that he has tried to balance this. He once gave Tottenham players a verbal warning.But obviously Sunderland's coach didn't appreciate it at all after the game.

Of course, Weber also believes that what the referee needs to do most is to avoid dominating the game and avoiding the referee from becoming the protagonist on the court. A person who jumps out to perform when it is destroyed.

Obviously, law enforcement through a series of technologies must be much more reliable than the human eye.For example, the FA is now repeatedly measuring the maturity of the Hawkeye technology. The FA is still swinging between the Hawkeye technology and the addition of a goal-line referee.

But Weber supports goal-line referees. Between "cold and ruthless technology" and "people", he prefers "people", because the uncertainty brought about by "people" is also a part of the game-human beings Now that you are in love with this sport, you should be willing to admit defeat and accept the possibility of "human" misjudgment.

Of course, the pressure brought by the "misjudgment" is all on the referee's shoulders.Sunderland's situation today is considered the best. Although Tottenham scored a penalty due to a misjudgment, Sunderland miraculously pulled two goals in a row and won the game. Therefore, the head coach just I moved my lips - this is nothing at all.You know, Weber has been threatened with his life before, and almost caused his death.

These referees are under tremendous pressure, take risks, and the rules and justice they have to maintain are not worth mentioning in the eyes of others?

So when Weber was depressed, he logged into "Green Life" and chose a "random task" at random. He really wanted to play a game to relax. Who would have thought that he would be selected as a player, while other players would become referee?

However, Weber is already a novice player, he has a full set of player skills, from goalkeeping to shooting, everything!But the position assigned to him by the simulator is a central defender.For some reason, this position always reminded him of the captain who rushed into the penalty area and returned to defense today.

Weber's tackle and interception skills are not fake. Seeing the opponent's player dribble into the penalty area, Weber hit the ball first with a clean sliding tackle.The opponent's offensive player immediately fell down beside him—this fallen position was really frightening. Weber got up tremblingly, and saw that all the opponent's players were stretching out their hands to the referee to signal fouls, but the referee on duty stretched out his hands, Indicates to continue the game.Webb tackled the ball out of bounds, so it was a foul.

Weber immediately praised him, thinking that the player's judgment was really accurate - after all, players who entered the simulator all wanted to accumulate experience points and improve their level through the game, and no one would take the game lightly.

It's just that this player, with his elegant black hair swaying gently with his steps while running, looks very familiar.Weber looked at the player's age, and thought that it might be a player he had encountered in law enforcement before—this is good, the player and the referee have switched identities and started doing the other's work, which is not interesting. ?

It is said that the midfielders are all doing dirty work and tiring work. If there is one, there will be two.The first half was not over yet, Weber made another tackle, this time he was indeed a technical foul, the position was right on the edge of the penalty area, the opposing player fell right into the penalty area, and when he fell, he stretched out his hand , turned around and looked at the referee innocently.

The whistle blew immediately, and the referee on duty pointed to the penalty spot.

Weber jumped up and shouted loudly at the other player: "This should be a free kick!"

If the foul occurs outside the penalty area instead of inside the penalty area, the referee should award a free kick.The front of the penalty area is too close to the goal, and the football is not so easy to bypass the wall, so this is not a free kick in a good position.

But if there is a foul in the penalty area, this is a penalty kick within twelve yards, which is extremely powerful.Such a foul penalty can be described as a slight difference, a thousand miles away.Weber himself is the referee, so he took this into account when he fouled—unexpectedly, the opponent made a misjudgment, how could Weber not be angry?

At this time, Weber, like his teammates, came to the referee together.Remembering the example that happened in real life earlier today, Weber tried his best to be patient and try to avoid conflicts with the "referee on duty" in front of him.

But the problem is that the simulated scene of "Life in the Greenery" is too real, and the players feel full of substitution. The same is true for Weber: when he tried his best to explain to the referee, his voice was somewhat loud, his tone was fast and anxious—— A South Yorkshire sheriff, one can imagine how loud his voice is on the court and how severe his tone is.

So the "referee on duty" reached into his coat pocket, as if he was about to take out something.

Weber was stunned for a moment: Is this a card draw?

This is really fatal, he is just trying to argue, he did not despise the authority of the referee!

Weber opened his eyes wide and stared at the player in front of him. He suddenly remembered the game during the day. When he showed the yellow card to the captain of Sunderland, the other party did the same, staring at him closely. With a look of disbelief—really, it's just...reasonable!

Webber suddenly understood the feelings of these players from the bottom of his heart: They were not young people who were questioned by the sheriff, they were professional players.As professional players, don't they even have the chance to reason and speak for themselves?

Unexpectedly, the opposing player reached into his jacket pocket, and what he drew was not a red and yellow card, but a light screen.

As soon as he waved his hand, the surroundings immediately fell silent, the NPCs were all still, and the angry voices of the sympathetic fans in the field could not be heard.Apparently the whole game was suspended.

The "chief referee" smiled and said to Weber: "I just came up with this function recently. It was originally said to be used by the head coach of the simulated game. The head coach can suspend the game at any time and watch it in slow motion. Later I found that actually all players can do this, it's just that player players generally don't have access to it!"

The "referee" said, stretched out his hands and pulled it, and the light screen the same size as the yellow card immediately expanded and floated in front of the two of them.Weber could clearly see the scene of the foul just now being played back repeatedly on the light screen—indeed, when he fouled, the opposing player's feet were almost on the penalty area line, and it was almost difficult to tell whether it was in the penalty area or not. Fouls outside the box.

The "referee" waved his hand, and the light screen immediately magnified. At this time, even Weber himself could see clearly that he was indeed outside the penalty area when he stretched his feet. That is, the moment the "foul" occurred, the feet of the opponent's offensive player had indeed entered the penalty area.

"Mr. Weber, red and yellow cards are certainly a good way to control the atmosphere on the court and establish the authority of the referee. But I personally think that this power cannot be abused. Because when you are on the court, without any other auxiliary means, sometimes you cannot [-]% Guaranteed that what you 'see' must be the truth. You can't stop players from telling stories they know."

The "referee" looked very gentle, but Weber had to say that there was a convincing power naturally in his words.

"Only precise and impeccable judgments are the root of all disputes. If you can't fully achieve this, please listen to what the players have to say, and then make a comprehensive consideration and judgment." That name " What the referee said at this time was completely directed at a "referee", which greatly touched Weber.

He stared at the young man in the referee's law enforcement uniform in front of him, and asked, "Excuse me—have I seen you not long ago?"

The black-haired young man nodded with a smile, pointed to his handsome cheeks, and said, "Please imagine yourself, put a pair of wide-rimmed glasses on this face?"

Weber opened his mouth slightly. He remembered very clearly the young coach who couldn't even shake hands at the end of the game earlier.Sure enough, just add a pair of wide-rimmed glasses to this young and frank face...

Sunderland's head coach, Antonio Lin -- this is, Player A?

The author has something to say: Bald Webber, this person's law enforcement level is relatively high (if the frame of reference is four blind), but there have also been red and yellow cards flying all over the sky under his hands. He is a former sheriff with a sturdy and resolute appearance, like an "iron-blooded" referee.

He did receive death threats. It was in the European preliminaries in 08, when Austria played against Poland at home. Weber judged Lewandowski for a foul in the opponent's penalty area and blew a penalty. Then the Polish fans quit and made threatening calls to Weber. .It is said that there was an oolong at that time. A phone call was made to the home of the person with the same name and surname, which frightened others. On the contrary, Weber was fine, which is also miraculous.

Today, as usual, we will hold the home team's character building activity. Dear friends who leave a message under this chapter, please accept the red envelope presented by the author himself!
