Born to be a coach [soccer]

As soon as the FA Cup final kicked off, Sunderland took the opportunity of kick-off to launch a fast break, attacking Chelsea unprepared, and immediately formed a single-handed fight, with Vardy facing goalkeeper Petr Cech alone.

Wembley Stadium almost let out a "boom" exclamation, and the shouts dispersed immediately. There was a sigh of regret from the stands, and then turned into applause and cheers.

The goalkeeper Cech's attention was very concentrated, Vardy went to the meeting alone, and faced Cech with a shot.Cech's center of gravity never moved, until after Vardy kicked out, he moved his body, struck out with a single punch, lifted the ball that was already close at hand, and the football was higher than the crossbar and flew out of the baseline.

- Corner!

Vardy turned around, clenched his fist, and waved it vigorously in the air, with a very annoyed expression on his face. He probably felt that if he shot the goal just a little more tricky, he could score a goal.

In fact, in the final analysis, this is Cech's rich experience and a very spicy piece of old ginger, while Vardy's experience in handling the ball when facing the goalkeeper needs to be slowly cultivated.

It's just that now is not the time to sum up experience. Players from both sides immediately gathered in Chelsea's penalty area, waiting for Sunderland to complete their first corner kick won after the opening.

In Wembley Stadium, the fans of both sides seemed very excited: the game was extremely intense from the first second of the game.Sunderland's fast break caused both sides to give up the traditional "lukewarm" opening. The players quickly entered the state, abandoned all distracting thoughts, and faced the game with the best mental state.

——This game looks good!

The match was intense and exciting, while Anton stood with his arms folded and stood in the command area on the sidelines, silently and calmly watching the situation on the field.

The enemy is strong and we are weak, so Anton's team focuses on defense and counterattack in this game.Since the opening fast break failed, Sunderland showed patience and took a defensive position. The midfielders and central defenders took good care of the most threatening players on the Chelsea field according to the pre-match arrangement: "Warcraft" Drogba, Anelka, Malouda, the "magic lamp" Lampard in midfield...

Especially Drogba, the center of Chelsea Zhengyin from Côte d'Ivoire, is a player with top-notch physical and technical skills. Once he holds the ball, Sunderland's defense almost needs two people to step forward to help defend at the same time, in order to carry this extremely strong and explosive body Very strong top center.

And Anton's attention, but always in another Chelsea striker, the Frenchman Anelka.

Nicolas Anelka, who became famous at a young age, became the main force of Arsenal at the age of 19, helped the team win the Premier League championship, won the Champions League trophy in Real Madrid at the age of 20, and won the European Cup with the French national team at the age of 21 At the age of 26, he won the Turkish Super League championship with Fenerbahce, at the age of 30, he won the Premier League Golden Boot, and at the age of 31, he is now helping Chelsea win the Premier League championship this season.Anelka can be regarded as an excellent striker that every head coach in the world dreams of.

However, Anton paid attention to Anelka, not because of his threat to Sunderland.Sunderland's coaching staff had arranged targeted tactics for each player of the opponent long before the game.Anton's attention to Anelka stems from the last time he received a "mysterious mission" from player B in "Green Life".

That night, when Anton was about to log out of "Green Life", he accidentally discovered that the account of "Player B", that is, Bernard, was actually online.The older brother was naturally ecstatic, and hurriedly tried to initiate a conversation with the email on the site.

But when the other party replied, Anton realized that the other party was a staff member of the game development company under the Star Power Group. According to Bernard's instructions earlier, he regularly logged in to the account of "Player B" to complete some simple maintenance tasks and keep the account intact. Activity.

——It seems like an empty joy?

When Anton found out that there was someone else under the "skin" of "Player B", he was extremely disappointed.But before he could be too disappointed, the other party's staff forwarded a document to Anton, saying that Bernard "entrusted" them to forward it to Anton.

Anton quickly asked the other party when he received this document, and confirmed that it was after Bernard fell into a "coma", and it was just recently.Then the question arises: in the real world, Bernard has no active consciousness, how did he give this document to Starway Group?

After hearing Anton's question, the other staff said: They didn't know that the document they received was an electronic version and it was sent by mail.All they received from Bernard was to forward the document to Anton.And the content of this document is nothing special in their opinion, it belongs to the normal communication between players.

Anton had no choice but to contact Professor Friedrich.He couldn't figure it out: Since Bernard doesn't have the "consciousness" that ordinary people have, how did he manage to write this document and send it to Starway Group?

"Little Tony," Professor Friedrich comforted Anton on the phone, "this just proves our conjecture that Bernard is not only conscious, but also very active!"

According to the professor, Bernard's consciousness is not only active, but may have always existed in the game "Life in the Green". "When you log into the game, people in the real world think you're just sitting there motionless, don't you? But you're still running around in the virtual world."

Anton thought to himself: ...that's true!

"Since Bernard's 'illness', we have kept his access to 'Green Life' for safety reasons," the professor continued to explain, "Bernard probably used his consciousness to write in the virtual world. With such a document, maybe he is guiding you to contact him as soon as possible, or to help him! By the way, what does the document say?"

Anton replied: "He said he wanted me to help him complete a mysterious mission."

Professor: "What... mission?"

Anton nodded: "Yes, but this document itself does not explain what the task is, so what I received should not be the task itself, but just a branch and support."

Professor: I'm old... I really don't understand the twists and turns of you young people.

"The document gave a list of the names of several well-known players. Bernard hoped that I would pay as much attention to the performance of these players as possible."

Professor: "Pay attention?... That's right, Anton, as long as you wear glasses to watch these players play games or read their news, Bernard will probably know about them!"

Anton thought so too.If, as the coach said, Bernard's consciousness can wander in the "Green Life" game, then he, Anton, becomes Bernard's eyes and Bernard's ears, acting on behalf of Bernard and The real world stays connected.

"But what does this have to do with 'task'?" The professor was still a little confused.

Anton replied: "It doesn't say in the document, but the subject on the letterhead of the document is: Special Mission—Character Determines Destiny!"

Professor: "Character determines destiny? I don't understand! Well-known players... who are there?"

Anton stared at the document opened on the computer screen in front of him. The first player's name: Nicolas Anelka, nationality: France.

Standing on the sidelines of Wembley Stadium, Anton continued his on-the-spot command while paying attention to the performance of Chelsea players.

Before the game, Anton and the coaching staff studied all of Chelsea's games throughout the season with strong technical means and data processing capabilities.They have a thorough understanding of the technical habits of all the opponent's players, and even all the formations and tactics used by Ancelotti.

But Chelsea will feel more unfamiliar to Sunderland.First, because Sunderland is in the English Championship, and second, Sunderland has only played good football for half a season recently. Many of the club's outstanding players are rookies, and they haven't accumulated much data and video data. Shang Anton himself is a head coach who doesn't play cards according to common sense.In terms of "knowing yourself and the enemy", Sunderland is definitely better than Chelsea.

This advantage slightly smoothed the gap in hard power between the two teams.Although Sunderland didn't have much advantage on the scene, they tried their best to keep the goal within 25 minutes of the opening.Chelsea, on the other hand, was in a state of "getting the upper hand and not scoring". Although there were many opportunities, they were unable to score under the tight double-team defense of the Sunderland players.

In the 26th minute, Lampard launched an attack from near the center circle.The three players in the Chelsea team, Drogba, Malouda and Anelka, all came forward.

Drogba was the key target, followed by two Sunderland players all the time, while Malouda was stopped by the red-haired teenager Kolbeck who kicked the right back.Only Anelka is unmarked, and at this time he has raised his hand for the ball.

Many Sunderland fans on the sidelines felt as if their hearts had missed a beat: My God, I missed someone.

However, Lampard may not have seen Anelka's request for the ball because of the blocking of his line of sight.Drogba turned around and rushed into the penalty area.He was too strong and pushed the opposing defender who came up to defend directly to the side.

But in the few moments the Sunderland defenders fought for, the goalkeeper emerged.Hallo let go of his arms and legs, stretched out his ape arms, and hugged the ball.No matter how powerful the monster is, it can only return in vain.

Behind the goal, all the Sunderland fans let out a sigh of relief, and some patted their chests in fear.

It was only then that Lampard saw Anelka who was unmarked. He seemed to feel a little embarrassed, and quickly reached out his hand to express his apology.Drogba also took the initiative to run forward, patted Anelka on the shoulder, and signaled his teammates: the opportunity will come again, and the old lamp will definitely pass it to you next time.

Anelka didn't look too depressed.He seemed to accept Drogba's comfort, nodded, and then trotted back behind his teammates.On the way back, a moth probably just flew past Anelka's eyebrows, and the Frenchman waved his hand abruptly and violently—the force was surprisingly powerful, and a group of moths might have passed by. It will all be blown away.

Anelka didn't notice the gaze of the opponent's coach on the sidelines, and was following him scorchingly.And his unnoticed action just leaked his emotions.

In Anton's view, Anelka, a talented star, looks lonely and arrogant.The "wasted opportunity" caused by Chelsea's improper cooperation may continue to affect the French in the rest of the game.

But before Anelka got another chance, a new change appeared on the field: Sunderland, which was not favored by most people before the game, actually scored first at Wembley Stadium.

The author has something to say: Last night was another reversal. Facts once again tell us that football is round, and anything can happen until the moment the referee blows the whistle.

This is football!

Look forward to the showdown between the two Premier League teams at the Wanda Metropolitano Stadium in Madrid.

In addition, have you heard of Anelka?This player once played for Shanghai Shenhua for a period of time.But it doesn't matter if you are not familiar with it, just read the text.
