Chapter 152 Tension

The night before the World Cup final in South Africa, after the last team meeting, all the players returned to the room to recharge their batteries for tomorrow's game.

Digan originally thought that no matter what kind of big scene it was, he would be able to face it calmly, but when he really lay down on the field, he realized that no matter how strong he is, no matter how tough his nerves are, in the final analysis Just a normal guy.

He will be nervous, and will panic because of a game!

Speaking of which, this is the second time he has faced the final of the World Cup, and he has also played in the European Cup final, which is also not light. At that time, he didn't know what nervousness was at all. When he was nervous or excited and couldn't fall asleep, he seemed very calm.

But this time, it's different!

Only after experiencing failure, people will have a special desire for success!

Digan is just an ordinary person!

In the club, Degan's achievements are absolutely brilliant. Throughout the history of world football, few people can compete with him for the number of championships. In terms of the national team, Degan also has an outstanding resume.

European Cup champion, Intercontinental Cup champion, but he only lacks a World Cup championship trophy.

There is only one step away from the king of the ball!

Although Degan said he didn't care, who doesn't want his name to go down in history, to become the talk of people after many years, and to become the idol of countless young players in the future.

Digan can be responsible on the surface, but in fact, he is also a layman, a layman!

It was already late at night, and Digan, who tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, sat up, walked to Fellaini's locker, and searched through it. He knew that Fellaini was hiding something he needed very much now.

cigarette!

Digan, who has never smoked, suddenly wants to smoke very urgently!

Speaking of which, compared with most of his contemporaries, Degan's life is like a Puritan. He doesn't like to drink, he doesn't like to eat Hesse, he doesn't like those flesh and blood, and he doesn't like to smoke. Football is football, so that his teammates feel that he is a little abnormal.

But now Digan wants to smoke!

Digan heard from Fellaini and many others that this stuff can relax the mind!

After finding the cigarettes and the lighter, Digan pushed the door and walked out. He walked to the end of the corridor and watched the night of Johannesburg through the glass.

Johannesburg is a big city, but it is located in Africa after all, even if it is developed, it is very limited. In addition, it is already past two o'clock in the night. Although the neon lights are bright outside, there are very few people. Those few people , are also fans of the Netherlands and Belgium who are waiting to enjoy tomorrow's game.

Digan didn't know how many cigarettes he had smoked, but he still couldn't calm down. At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps behind him, but Digan didn't turn his head.

"Can't sleep?"

It was Antiiennis. He couldn't fall asleep either. He just got up when he heard the sound of someone walking outside. He didn't expect to see? It was Digan.

Digan nodded: "I don't know what happened to me. I thought I would be very strong, but I didn't expect that I would also have a vulnerable side!"

Antiiennis smiled: "Rod! Everyone has a vulnerable side, we are all ordinary people, um! Give me a cigarette!"

Digan looked at Antiiennis: "I remember you don't smoke!"

While talking, he still handed over the cigarette case and lighter. Antiiennis took it, took out a cigarette, lit it, took a deep breath, and then coughed violently: "I remember you don't smoke either. , but it seems that you have to adapt faster than me, I still can't conquer this thing!"

Antiiennis smiled and said irrelevant words: "Rod! How do you feel now? Excited? Nervous?"

Digan thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "I can't tell, anyway, it's very complicated, I just want to start tomorrow's game quickly, and then finish as soon as possible, right! I made an agreement with my girlfriend, and we will Let's go to Korea with her!"

Antiiennis smiled: "Which little Korean girl is it!? She is really cute, Rhodes! Learn to cherish it!"

Digan knew that Antiiennis made him cherish not only Park Ji-yeon, but also many other things: "I will cherish it, coach! I missed a lot, this time I want to catch them all!"

Antiiennis smiled, and after taking a few sips, he seemed to have adapted to the smell of tobacco: "Rod! Don't be too greedy, and don't push yourself too hard. You are just one person, and you can't conquer the whole world. You have to learn to face the world with a calm mind! By the way! Remember? In addition to my job as a coach, I am also a psychiatrist!"

Degan smiled: "Of course, I was still thinking that if you left the Belgian national team, you might change your career to become a doctor. Marouane and Vincent are betting on this!"

Antiiennis was taken aback when he heard the words, and then laughed loudly: "What are you betting on?"

Digan shrugged: "I think you will continue your current job!"

Antiiennis nodded: "I want to congratulate you, you won, yes, I will continue my current coaching job, but before continuing to work, I want to rest for a while, I am too tired, too tired , For six full years, I am already tired, very tired!"

Degan really wants to persuade Antiiennis to stay, because he feels that in this world, apart from Prandelli, only Antiiennis is the person who understands him best, and he is also the head coach who can trust him 100% and support him. But when the words came to his lips, he couldn't speak again. He didn't want to interfere with anyone's decision. Everyone has their own choice.

"If possible, I very much look forward to the day when we can continue to work together!"

Antiiennis nodded: "Of course, I am also looking forward to it, Rhodes! Do you know? The greatest achievement in my life is to recruit you for Belgium, thank you! Thank you very much! You have brought me the most brilliant achievement!"

Digan shook his head: "No! I said the same thing. I should be the one to say thank you. You let me join a great team!"

Antiiennis waved his hand: "Stop talking about that, what do you think of tomorrow's game?"

As soon as he talked about tomorrow's game, Degan was a little confused again: "I don't know, when I lay down just now, I saw some very bad pictures in front of my eyes. It was all four years ago. We took the lead, and then I went off injured and then we lost the World Cup trophy, it's too bad, coach! I don't want to do it again, I really don't want to! The pain once is enough!"

Digan felt distraught, and suddenly he thought of the reason why Ronaldo played abnormally in the 98 World Cup that he had read on Internet Hill in his previous life.

Because nervous!

If that's the case, Digan can now understand that a person with all the burden on his shoulders, this kind of pressure is not something anyone can bear.

At first Digan thought he could do it, but now he knows that he can't do anything!

Antiiennis patted Degan on the shoulder: "Don't think too much, Rhodes! You have done a very good job. No matter what the result of tomorrow's game is, you are the greatest player in Belgian history."

The greatest player in Belgian history! ?

That is not Degan's goal. What he wants to do is the greatest player in the history of world football. No one is unique. It may be a bit arrogant to think so, but Degan really desires it in his heart.

"Go back and rest! Tomorrow morning, I hope to continue to see the greatest captain!"

Digan nodded, stubbed out the cigarette in his hand, and walked back.

As soon as he entered the door, Degan heard Fellaini's voice: "Rod! Can't you sleep?"

Digan was taken aback: "So you weren't asleep either!"

Fellaini turned on the light: "I knew it when you went out just now, how do you feel now?"

Digan lay on the bed: "Very bad!"

Fellaini heard the words, but he was not worried: "I bet the Dutch must be the same now. Just think about it. After 32 years, they will be under more pressure than us to re-enter the World Cup finals. The uncrowned king , we are not qualified to wear such hats on our heads, but this is good."

Digan really didn't expect Fellaini to say such reasonable words: "Hearing you say that, my heart is much calmer, okay! Go to sleep! I hope tomorrow will be a good day , I don't want to fight in the rain anymore!"

At the same time, in the same hotel, in the room of Pu Zhiyan and the others, several girls were still awake. Seeing how busy they were, they seemed to be preparing something.

"Soyeon Unnie! Are you all ready? Do you want to check again!" Pu Zhiyan, the little sister, was directing several older sisters at the moment.

Park So Yeon with a baby face yawned big: "Ah~~~~~~~~ Jiyeon! It's almost time, go to sleep! I can understand your mood, but we can't be too tired Fell asleep in the stands tomorrow!"

Seeing the sleepy eyes of the older sisters, Park Ji-yeon was in high spirits: "No! We must prepare everything today, and give Oppa the best support in the finals tomorrow!"

The other girls looked at each other, each with helplessness on their faces, they could all understand, don't look at Pu Zhiyan's energetic appearance now, in fact, she is more nervous than anyone else.

At the same time, a thought of envy welled up in my heart: why would a world-class football star fall in love with our Zhiyan! ?
