The training arrangement before the game is very simple, focusing on warm-up and supplemented by special training.
The whole team first jogged for 10 minutes under the leadership of captain Bread.
Gu Ran naturally followed the team.
During the warm-up training at school, Gu Ran almost couldn't keep up with these donkey-like teammates.
But now, Gu Ran's physical attributes have increased from 56 points to 58 points - equivalent to 200 more hours of physical training.
Gu Ran's current physical fitness is fully able to keep up with the team's warm-up.
Of course, there are differences between warm-up runs before a game and warm-up runs for normal training.
Normally the team's warm-up run lasts 15 minutes, and the speed is obviously a level higher than now.
Now the warm-up run before the game is mainly to maintain physical fitness.
After all, if you warm up too hard, you will not only lose a lot of physical energy, but it will also tire your body prematurely and lose your game state.
After the 10-minute warm-up, Bread led the team in a 5-minute warm-up exercise and stretching training to stretch the muscles and bones into a state suitable for competition.
After stretching training, the players began special training according to their respective positions on the field.
The forwards practice sprinting, the midfielders practice passing and receiving, and the defenders practice pressing and long passes.
Gu Ran naturally practiced with the guard team.
Head coach Carter walks among the players and stops and spits out output whenever he encounters something he is dissatisfied with.
The 15-minute special training ended at exactly 2:30.
Carter immediately gathered the players and announced the starting lineup for the game.
Sure enough, Gu Ran was the substitute.
This was also within Gu Ran's expectation.
In fact, just three days after joining the school team, he was able to participate in the national competition with the team as a substitute. This is already an extraordinary thing.
What surprised Gu Ran was that the main forward Sissy was not in the starting lineup either.
Coach Carter included a defensive midfielder from the training team who performed well in the team's training matches into the starting 11.
Is it a new tactical arrangement? The old troll is planning to change the lineup in the first game?
Gu Ran quietly glanced at Sissy and found that Sissy didn't seem too surprised - obviously, Coach Carter had communicated with Sissy privately before the announcement.
Gu Ran was very curious about what kind of formation Coach Carter would use today to deal with the obviously dominant Corsair team.
After the starting lineup was announced, the Bucks Steelhorns headed to the locker room at Corsair Football Stadium to prepare for the game.
As soon as they entered the visiting team's locker room, everyone couldn't help but wrinkle their noses.
The visiting team locker room of the Corsairs is very small, and there is an obvious smell of urine in the corner.
When I opened the iron cabinet in the locker room, there were even dead rats, smelly socks and other disgusting things inside.
The walls of the locker room were spray-painted with scarlet “5:1” graffiti.
——The last time the two teams met was 5 years ago, when the Manchester Pirates crushed the Southampton Bucks Steel Horns with a score of 5:1.
"Farke!"
The players started shouting curses:
"I thought those little bastards in Manchester would abide by the rules! I didn't expect them to do this!"
"Originally, I wanted to say that their lunch meal was not bad, but it turned out they wanted us to vomit here!"
"The pirate ship is rubbish! It's too much!"
Rusty Strip kicked the cabinet angrily, "You little bastards from Manchester! They definitely did this on purpose!"
Coach Carter glared at Rusty Bar, "You know it was intentional, but you still lose your temper?"
Xitiao immediately shut up, and other players who complained did not dare to speak anymore.
In the locker room, Coach Carter is the absolute boss.
There is no dispute about this in the Bucks Steel Horns.
Although the overall strength of the Bucks Steel Horns is the weakest in Group E, coach Carter has godfather-level control over the entire team. From top to bottom, no one dares to disobey Carter.
Coach Carter said with a gloomy face: "What do you think the away game is? A resort? Do you think the away game is what it is shown to you on TV? At least, that will have to wait until you become professional players! In the national high school competition, this is Reality! Now, don’t be a bitch and think about this or that, change your jersey quickly and go out to adapt to the venue.”
"Yes, coach."
The players endured the disgusting smell, quickly changed their jerseys and ran out of the locker room.
According to the game process, both sides have about 20 minutes to adapt to the venue before the official start.
At this time, it is also the time for fans to enter the venue, live DJs and cheerleaders to warm up the show.
Although Gu Ran is a substitute, he can also enter the field with the starting players at this time.
Gu Ran put on Messi's special sneakers and stepped on the turf of the Corsair home court, feeling filled with excitement.
At this moment, the simple stands of the Corsair Stadium were filled with students who came to watch the game.
Without exception, these students are all students from Manchester, and they are all absolute fans of the Corsair team.
Almost all of the school's more than 700 students came to cheer for their home team.
The simple stands were packed to the brim, and looking around, I could only see crowds of people.
What is particularly eye-catching is that,
Under the east side of the stands, there is a group of young and beautiful long-legged beauty cheerleaders. They are uniformly dressed. They only wear a red sports bra on their upper body. They have a small white sports skirt tied around their waist. She wasn't wearing stockings, but she was wearing a black stocking hoop.
The DJ at the scene started to play some high-pitched music to warm up the show, and the long-legged beauty cheerleaders immediately began to twist to the hot melody, and from time to time they even raised their legs.
Rusty Strip kept looking back at the long-legged beauty cheerleader.
Bread couldn't help but remind him: "Rustiao! Have you never seen a woman before?"
Rusty Strip wiped the corner of his mouth, "No, the main reason is... our cheerleading team is too frustrated."
Gu Ran looked around curiously, "We still have a cheerleading team? It seems they didn't follow us?"
As soon as he finished speaking, in the bench area, the drummer took out a jazz snare drum from a large backpack, picked up the drumstick and started banging it hard.
While beating, the drummer yelled at the top of his lungs: "Stag Steel Horns! Hey, hey! Invincible!"
Gu Ran:......
Well, it turns out we actually have a cheerleading squad and we brought it.
It’s just...it’s so frustrating! ! !
I suddenly had the idea of transferring to another school. I don’t know whether to talk about it or not...
At this time, the Manchester students in the stands began to boo the Bucks Steel Horns players who were adapting to training on the field, and made insulting gestures of 5:1.
The female cheerleaders also twerked at the Bucks Steel Horns players and danced the Poznan dance.
Bucks Steelhorns players are all on fire.
Rusty Strip looked at the butts again and again...
Suddenly, the DJ on the scene shouted loudly: "Let us welcome the handsome guys of the Corsair with the warmest applause!"
The Corsair players of the home team came out to adapt to the venue to the sound of majestic marching music.
The Manchester students at the scene immediately set off a tsunami-like wave of people, and the simple stands swayed like noodles.
The students in the stands cheered wildly and shouted the names of every home team player.
Some boys stood in the aisles of the stands, waving the red team flag of the Corsair team.
There were also some female students who took off their little suits and jumped crazily on the stands!
The cheerleaders on the east side of the stands also writhed crazily to the tunes of the DJ.
The game hasn't officially started yet, but the atmosphere is already on fire!
The drummer beat the drum crazily, but the sound was completely suppressed by the sound of the Manchester students!
Gu Ran stood on the green field and felt that his eardrums were about to be shattered by the roar of the scene.
This is the crazy British football scene.
Moreover, this is just a small high school football game scene.
The title of football country is really not an exaggeration.
At the scene, every time the Pirates practiced passing the ball, it triggered a burst of crazy cheers.
And every time the Bucks Steel Horns practice passing, it can trigger a burst of boos filled with contempt.
That's home pressure.
At the home court of a professional league, at least there are away tickets, at least there are away fans, at least there are cameras and away media reporters.
But in the amateur high school league, everything has returned to the most primitive and barbaric state of football.
Twenty minutes of acclimatization ended with wild boos full of contempt and hostility.
Players from both sides returned to the locker room for final preparations before the game.
