Chapter 402 Their stories also contain our youth ([-])
On August 8th, all members of Villarreal came to Valencia, the capital city, to compete with the league team formed by seven colleges and universities in the city at the Valencia Sports University not far from the city center. Had a warm-up match.
This campus team called the Valencia Major League is very famous in the amateur football circle in the entire Valencia region. Although they are not professional teams or even semi-professional teams, their training The facilities and training methods are not much different from those of professional teams. In addition, they are all young and strong guys. The reason is that the experience is also very good. In this region, even many semi-professional and semi-amateur teams have not been able to take advantage of them.
But after all, it is just a group of unprofessional students. It can compete with amateur teams in low-level or even regional leagues. But when facing professional teams, various shortcomings are undoubtedly revealed. It can be said that Villarreal played very easily in this game. Although many players are not in the best condition physically and mentally on the field, but just playing around is enough to completely defeat this student army.
The score in the first half reached 4:0. After more than half a month of systematic training, Fran can still vaguely see signs of gaining weight from him, but the shooter's instinct is still there, and the Uruguayan shooter easily won A hat-trick was scored, while Josico scored the remaining goal.
Fernandez's maneuvering in the penalty area made the young student army dizzy, and was finally lured into a foul. Villarreal thus won a penalty. Riquelme did not take this penalty and owned the team. Fan Bizhuang, who has the "unlimited right to fire", also did not take the penalty, and everyone unanimously gave the old captain Hosico the opportunity to take the penalty.
Hosico didn't give way either, and easily scored the penalty kick.
In the second half, Pellegrini began to make repeated substitution adjustments. Almost every player in the first team, including the small players promoted from the second team, also got a chance to play.After all, it is just a warm-up friendly match, there are not so many strict rules, and there is almost no upper limit on the number of substitutions.
Forlan, Riquelme, Rossi and other main players were replaced one by one. In the end, the face of the team can be described as a new look. There are only four main players left on the field, except Diego who is the goalkeeper. For Lopez, there are only Fan Bizhuang and Cazorla, as well as the old captain Josico.
Even so, in terms of strength, Villarreal is still ten blocks out of the college league. In the second half, the Submarine scored six goals in a row, Cazorla scored one, and Josico even more. He made persistent efforts to score two goals and staged a hat-trick.The remaining three goals were all from young players of the second-tier team.
In this warm-up match, Hosico was like an old tree blooming, and he continued to have positive performances on the offensive end.He is a defensive midfielder. Throughout his career, it is rare to score two goals in a game, and a hat-trick has never happened before. This game can be regarded as breaking himself One of the records, even if it is just an insignificant warm-up game.
However, Fan Bizhuang's performance was somewhat unsatisfactory. It's not that his performance was not good enough. In fact, he was in a very good state in this game. No matter from the mental or competitive level, there is nothing wrong with him. Picky, the only regret is that he didn't score a goal. His goal luck was a bit bad. The shot either hit the post or fired an anti-aircraft gun.
Faced with such a situation, Fan Bizhuang was also a little helpless.But fortunately, it was just a non-important game, and it was enough to go back and make some adjustments.
.....................................................................................................................
The match against a group of student troops was nothing to praise, not to mention that the final score was 10:0, even if it was 100:0, no one would praise Villarreal for its strength.
The two are not rivals at the same level, so it doesn't matter how big the gap is. In essence, it's just a warm-up match that doesn't matter much. The main purpose is to let the submarine players move their bodies and find players in the match Feel.
A few days passed quickly, and Villarreal ushered in their second warm-up match opponent, Numancia, in the small town.
The game is on August 8th, and there are only three days before the opening of the league. Four days later, they will usher in a new season at home.
On this day, the atmosphere in the small town was obviously a bit depressed. Countless fans poured out from the streets and alleys, and rushed to the Love Song Stadium quietly and silently.
The atmosphere of the Love Song stadium is one of the best in the entire La Liga. Although the stadium is not big, it cannot be compared with the spacious and magnificent main stadium of the powerful players, but it is also because of its small size that almost every game is full of seats. .
This time was no exception. The fans came to the scene early and rendered the stadium with a romantic name into a sea of yellow.
Unlike usual, the fans did not sing and dance in the stands, and even the familiar opening song did not sound again.Everyone stayed quietly in their seats, either sitting or standing, and some fans held up yellow fans with the number 16 printed on them, with tears in their eyes and dissatisfaction with parting on their faces. Give up and mourn.
Everyone is waiting, waiting for the player who is about to bid farewell to this stadium to play...
.....................................................................................................................
In the locker room of the home team, the atmosphere also seemed a bit dull and frozen.
The players are doing their own things, some are blowing their hairstyles in front of the mirror, some are listening to music with headphones on, and some are arranging their jerseys and shoes... All this is no different from before, but as long as you carefully If you observe, you will find that no matter what you are doing, everyone's eyes will be swept to the corner intentionally or unintentionally, to the thick figure standing in front of the ball locker.
Josico stood quietly in front of his cabinet, inside which hung a set of yellow home game uniforms with the Villarreal team logo and two big numbers: 16!On top of the number is the initials of his name.
He has been here for 13 years. For most people, 13 years is not a very long number, but for a professional player, 13 years is already most of his career. up.
He is not a native of Villarreal. When he was young, I am afraid that even he himself will not know that he will stay in a team for such a long time. The best time is dedicated to this stadium.
Think about when he came here?It should be in 95. At that time, he was full of high spirits, full of confidence, and his face was always filled with a confident and firm smile. He knew that he was not a talented player, but he was never disappointed, let alone Inferiority, the idea at that time was very simple and pure, that is, together with my partners, let this country team enter the public eye, and let everyone know that a small team also has big dreams!
Dreams are not all smooth sailing. In the process, there have been tears, pain, and loss, but... the ending seems to be good. At least for now, Villarreal has been considered very successful. They took They have achieved good results as runners-up in the league, and they have reached the semi-finals of the Champions League. Now they are about to set sail in the new season.
only……
"It's just that I'm old."
Looking at the clean yellow jersey hanging in front of his eyes, Josic suddenly felt his eyes a little sour. He reached out his hand to wipe the corner of his eyes without any trace, and wanted to touch his jersey.
His hands trembled a little. Although he restrained himself repeatedly, his hands still trembled as if they were not in control.
Gently stroking the cotton jersey, as if stroking the most beloved lover, or pampering his own child, Hosicko knew that his teammates were secretly eyeing him, and he also warned himself many times in his heart, He must hold back, and must not be ashamed, but at this moment, his tears still couldn't help but rush down.
Here, in this stadium, he has never received honors worth showing off, and as for the championship trophy, it is even more of a luxury.He used to think that the world was right under his feet, even if there was not much development here, at worst he would just change to another place.But before he knew it, 13 years had passed, and people around him came and went, but he still sticks to this place. His mind has long since changed. No matter how the world changes, no matter how great the temptation outside is, he just wants to stay here. Here, quietly waiting for this team that has been inseparable from his life.
But now, he doesn't want to stick to it anymore.The team has embarked on the most correct path, and the team is developing vigorously. He is very pleased and satisfied. He feels that it is time to leave. He can leave with a smile.
Taking advantage of the fact that he can still run and jump, and is not completely unable to run, he can leave the opportunity to more outstanding young people. He can return to the small town in his hometown and spend the last years of his career there. Do what he most wants to do.
Of course, he will still silently pay attention to his team, and... Xiaocheng's family!
The locker room was still extremely silent, and everyone's thoughts were extremely complicated. Young players like Rossi and Godin were even crying silently when they were about to say goodbye, with reluctance written all over their faces.
Some people wanted to say something, some people wanted to walk over, but in the end they didn't do anything, they just stood quietly and used other things to cover up the uncomfortable mood at this moment.
Hosico has withdrawn from the past memory, and there are still traces of tears in the corners of his eyes. He smiled self-deprecatingly, then picked up the jersey and sneakers in the cabinet, and put them on decisively.
Senna came up, didn't speak, just silently tied the captain's armband tightly on his arm.
Josico patted the armband on his right arm, and after a trance, he waved to his teammates with a firm and choked voice.
"Guys, get out! For the win, get out!"
Some people couldn't suppress their emotions at all, tears fell down, and they responded almost by howling and roaring.
"Yes, Captain!"
