Legend of Fengshen

Chapter 50 Winter in Rimini
Zhang Yuan took out his empty trouser pocket, spread his hands, and asked Mai Xuewen solemnly: "Brother Mai, do you think I can afford you like this?!"

Mai Xuewen laughed out loud at Zhang Yuan's funny actions, let alone invite him, if it wasn't for the club renting a house, whether Zhang Yuan can live on his own every month would have to be discussed separately.

"Brother Mai, you see, I don't have a dime on me now, and I still ask you to be my personal assistant. If you don't want to be a personal assistant, I can do it for you." Zhang Yuan said with a smile.

"Hey, hey, stop it, if you can give up playing football, then I will really treat you. I don't have any money now, and if you have money, please invite me!"

"Haha, I hope what you said can be realized as soon as possible, that means I will get rich!" Zhang Yuan said with a smile.

"Believe me, you will definitely get rich. If you don't believe me, let's wait and see!" Zhang Yuan didn't have that much confidence, but Mai Xuewen had a lot of confidence in Zhang Yuan.

It's been a cold winter in Rimini recently, and it's hard to see smiles from all over the club. The reason is that the recent results are too unsatisfactory, not unsatisfactory, but too bad.

After losing to Vicenza, Rimini played two consecutive home games. On April 4, they played against Pescara. Pescara is now in the abyss of relegation. At this time in the league, they have only 28 wins and 5 draws in total. Scored 9 points, and one point was deducted because of financial problems, so the standings accumulated 24 points, ranking first from the bottom. The defense is the worst in the entire Serie B so far. Before the game, everyone thought it was Rimini's comeback Good opportunity, but the result is still surprising. Rimini lost 23:0 to Pescara at home, giving the relegation team an innocuous victory.

On May 5st, Rimini welcomed Crotone at home. This is a team committed to relegation in Serie B this season. There is no lower limit for Rimini to lose, and it is another 1:0 loss to the opponent.

Everyone knows that there is a problem in Rimini, but no one can say what the problem is. Most of the media analyzed that because of the lack of Zhang Yuan, Rimini's offensive power in the frontcourt is insufficient, and Rimini's defense is not enough. Good luck.Is it really like this?When Zhang Yuan was here, he had already lost two games in a row. After that, the team was out of control and lost three games in a row, reaching an astonishing five-game losing streak. The fans were surprised, and the media shouted that it was incredible. I find it unbelievable to myself, why did I have a five-game losing streak all of a sudden?

Akori is really under a lot of pressure during this period. Many media have pointed the finger at him, thinking that his tactics have gone wrong. Before the winter break, there was no Zhang Yuan. Rimini also played well. Now Zhang Yuan is missing. He can't play anymore. This is the media's argument that Akeli caused Zhang Yuan's dependence.

Akori really doesn't want to pay attention to these nonsense. As the media said, the tactics are exactly the same as before the winter break. There is no change. It won't work without Zhang Yuan. Don't forget that Zhang Yuan also lost two games when he was there. Now that Zhang Yuan is not here and there is a three-game losing streak, you say it is Zhang Yuan's dependence, which is really a fallacy.

He analyzed and analyzed, and the biggest possibility is that he put too much pressure on the players. It doesn't matter if it is a Serie A lift, but for Rimini, upgrading is a long-term plan. In response, the pressure from the club up and down was enough to change the hearts of these players.

If you lose one game, everyone will be full of self-blame, and if you lose another game, everyone will think that you can’t make any more mistakes. The more you end up like this, the more timid you are on the field, and those who are afraid of making mistakes are more likely to make mistakes. data, but Akori can clearly feel that the players on the field hesitated more and made more mistakes.

Thinking of this, he can't wait to slap himself. If he doesn't publicly declare the goal of upgrading, he will still have a chance to fight game by game. It's really hard to say now. Now that Rimini has been surpassed by Piacenza, The point gap with the top three is also getting bigger and bigger. If this continues, it is estimated that they will not even be able to make it to the play-offs.

When I was still in the top three before, I was optimistic that the difference in points would not exceed 3 points, but according to the current situation, No.[-] really doesn't need to play in the play-offs, and can directly advance.

Before the away game against Piacenza, Arcori approached team captain Ricciuti and asked about the team's situation. Ricciuti said it was nothing, but everyone was in a low mood.

"Adrian, our team can't go on like this anymore. If it really goes on like this, it's better to disarm and surrender now!" Arcori said.

Ricciuti didn't speak, he listened carefully to what Arcori said.

"When I said the slogan of upgrading, I also wanted to motivate everyone, but who knew it would have side effects. I wanted to call everyone to have a meeting, and let everyone talk about the current situation!"

"Okay!" Ricciuti agreed.

The next day the team traveled to Piacenza. On the bus, Accoli held a meeting with the players and he apologized.

"Boys, first of all I want to apologize to you. I didn't consider your feelings and called out the goal of upgrading. As a result, it caused some impact on everyone. I think this is also an important reason for everyone's poor performance on the court. OK Yes, now we have a five-game losing streak, the promotion has become a dream in a blink of an eye, maybe there is still a chance if we fight hard, but I don't want to cause so much trouble for everyone. In the last few games, your mistakes have increased , I hesitated to handle the ball. I hope that in the next game, everyone can relax. There is nothing to be afraid of making mistakes, and there is nothing to hesitate to hesitate. How to play, everyone will play in the original way. I don’t know if you have done it recently. Read the newspaper, the newspaper said that we have suffered from "Zhang Yuan dependence". Who is Zhang Yuan? Is it really not as good as a child in the eyes of those bullshit media?!"

After Akoli finished speaking, he sat back in his seat. This was not a united and harmonious meeting, but rather like Akoli's pre-match speech, all the team members fell into silence.

Zhang Yuan is a very humble young man. He has a good relationship with everyone in the team. Everyone likes this young man very much. But when it comes to the competition within the team, who would like to be told by the head coach and outside public opinion that he is not as good as Zhang Yuan? ? !Zhang Yuan has only been playing professional football for more than half a year. Jada, Ricciuti, Moscaldelli and Matri in the frontcourt are unwilling to lag behind Zhang Yuan. They all admit that Zhang Yuan is a football genius with high talent , but he is a fledgling after all, can it be said that he can't even compare with the 16-year-old him?
The team is a collective, not Zhang Yuan alone. This is the idea of ​​each player. Your media said that our team is Zhang Yuan alone, so I will prove it to you. This team has me, Jada , I have Ricciuti, I have Pekarisi, and I have Handanovic!
Akeli's last words successfully inspired everyone's fighting spirit. Although Zhang Yuan seemed to be shot lying down, he also made contributions to the team.

On May 5th, Rimini challenged Piacenza in an away game. Piacenza's players were a little confused until the end of the game. Who the hell is at home? !Rimini had an overall advantage in the whole game. Whether it was offensive data or defensive data, Rimini led. Although the final score was 6:1, this did not correctly reflect the situation on the field.

The Rimini players who didn't win the ball are very sorry, but it even inspired them to fight like this in the next game. We don't believe that we can't win the ball!

On May 5th, Rimini played against Bari at home. This time Barry unfortunately hit Rimini's gun. They were swept by Rimini with four goals. Terry each scored a goal, and the players were elated after the game. They were not happy for winning, they were happy for proving themselves. Without Zhang Yuan, we can win, and we can win beautifully.

After winning this game, they once again surpassed the losing Piacenza and came to the fourth place in the standings. There is still an 3-point gap from No. 8******, and now they only have to keep the 11-point gap , it is possible to play the promotion play-offs, if they lose a game and **** wins a game, then the points gap will be widened to 3 points, and there will be no play-offs.According to the promotion rules of Serie B, No.410 can only be promoted directly if it exceeds No.10 points and above. If it is within [-] points, the teams ranked three to six in the standings will be promoted to play-offs.

Now **** is the same as Rimini. They will pray for the opponent to make mistakes in the next few rounds. Rimini, who won the ball, still has not been trusted by the media. Except for the local media to encourage Rimini, the other media are almost saying This is the flashback of Rimini. In short, whether it really recovers depends on the next few games.

Some of Rimini's players used to pay attention to the views of the media, and some didn't pay much attention to the views of the media, but since they were provoked by Arcoli, everyone cared about what the media said.It's like falling in love, the more a woman rejects you, the more you want to conquer them.The team members were so angry after reading the report, the excitement of winning the game disappeared, grandma, you still said no, we insisted on doing it.

During this period of time, the players have been training very hard. Compared with usual, their main changes are that their running has increased, and mistakes are not terrible.

The changes in the players made Akoli very happy. Diligence is the most critical factor for success. The increase in running means that at least his team's defensive strength has increased, even if it is headless chickens running around. He is strong in running, and he is lying to the players if he doesn't think about promotion. He still thinks about promotion in his head, but now he doesn't think about it. It's impossible. There are still four rounds in the league. It is impossible to win all of them, and it is impossible to surpass **** [-]. As for Juventus and Naples, it is even more impossible. Since Juventus won Rimini, they have only tied one game, and the rest have won all. Naples is also in good form, with five wins and one loss.
