Chapter 39 Unexpected Start

Friday’s training session.

"pretty!!"

Suker made a fake move to shake off the defense, and at the same time received the ball from Modric in the opposite direction. The whole set of moves was smooth and smooth.

This made Su Ke couldn't help but sigh secretly.

Barton saw that he was thrown away by Su Ke, and immediately turned around and rushed back.

But at this time, Su Ke turned over his instep and the ball passed under Button's crotch.

Being teased in the crotch, Barton blushed and immediately pounced on him even more fiercely.

Suker caught up with the ball and stepped on it. When Button pounced again, he pulled his feet back, penetrated the crotch again, and dodged sideways.

The two consecutive crotch-piercing plays made the surrounding teammates couldn't help but cheer loudly. They all gathered around and slapped Su Ke's back crazily.

It’s a ritual of admiration in football.

Suk also smiled happily.

Of course, Barton was very unhappy, after all, he was drilled twice.

"Come on! Are you okay?"

Suk stretched out his hand, and this time it was finally his turn to say this.

Barton glanced at Su Ke and said, "You must be holding a grudge."

Su Ke chuckled twice.

He did feel a sense of revenge. After all, he had been hit by Button for almost a week, and this time he finally turned against the guest.

Suk pulled Button up and the training match continued.

The overall atmosphere was still very relaxed. After Su Ke got rid of Button, the main team's offense became much smoother.

On the sidelines, Van Steyak also watched this scene with a smile.

"He was finally able to catch the ball properly."

Assistant coach Van Dier also said with a smile.

Throughout the week, Suker was bumped around and then adjusted, but his passing chemistry with Modric was not that good.

After constant adaptation and adjustment, the two finally solved this problem, which is a very positive sign.

As for the coaches, they are also happy to see this kind of scene.

Not only do the coaches help the players solve problems, but the players themselves also work hard to solve these problems together.

Under this feeling of prosperity, the team cohesion of Mostar Zlinyiski is also constantly rising.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but Suker has only been with the team for two weeks.

But the changes in the team are visible to the naked eye.

Teams that were somewhat lifeless in the past are now gradually coming to life.

The players smile more on the court and communicate with each other more frequently.

The most important thing is that Modric is no longer so closed-minded and begins to actively integrate into the team.

All this seems to indicate a good start.

"That's it for today's training. Everyone, get ready. We'll take the evening train to Banja Luka!"

In the fifth round of the Bosnian Premier League in the 2002/2003 season, Mostar Zlinjski's opponent was the Banja Luka Warriors.

From the moment the name appeared, the atmosphere at the scene became extremely intense.

Banja Luka is a city in Bosnia and Herzegovina and an autonomous city in Republika Srpska.

In many historical events, Serbs and Croats have gone from being fraternal nations to hating each other now. The civil war in the former Yugoslavia made both sides hate each other.

It can be said that in addition to the game itself, this game is more of a tit-for-tat confrontation between the two races.

Banja Luka Warriors is a Serb-dominated team.

Mostar Zliniski is mainly composed of Croats.

For this reason, the match between these two teams in the Bosnian Premier League is also called the 'National Derby', also known as the 'Bloody Derby'.

Van Steyak announced the 18-man roster, and Suker was still on the list and traveled with the team.

Simply carrying the package, Suk, Modric and others took the bus to the train station together.

Take the 6pm train to Banja Luka.

The train runs slowly on the rails, and the characteristic of the green train is that it is very slow.

Don’t expect Bosnia and Herzegovina to have high-speed rail. After all, so far, few countries in the world have such a thing.

Even the motherland, which is an infrastructure madman, is still in the stage of accumulating strength at this time.

There were almost no other passengers in the entire carriage except for the players from Mostar Zlinyiski.

This also made Suk find a free spot and lie there directly, preparing to take a nap.

Modric was a follower. When he saw Suker finding a way to lie down, he also came to lie down opposite Suker.

"Get a good sleep. Whether you can fall asleep at night is a question."

Kosopech said.

Suk looked up and said, "Why can't you fall asleep?"

Kosopec shrugged: "According to past experience, from the moment we arrived in Banja Luka, there would be some Serbs chasing after us and starting to curse. Throughout the night, they would stay at the door of the hotel and make noise, so that we could not Fall asleep.”

Suk blinked and closed his eyes immediately.

"Then I'll catch up on some sleep!"

At around 9 o'clock in the evening, the train arrived in Banja Luka.

The team has contacted local buses for pick-up and drop-off.

The bus went directly to the underground parking lot of the train station. It was obvious that Van Steyak did not intend to show his face.

But even so, these shrewd Serbs still accurately found their bus, then drove around, chasing and scolding them.

Suk looked at the young man who was walking side by side with the bus, stretched out from the window, kept saying obscene words and making insulting gestures towards the bus. He couldn't help curling his lips and said, "I really want to beat this guy up."

"Me too!" Skolk nodded; "They are so annoying!"

When the bus arrived near the hotel, the security personnel stopped the Serbs.

Su Ke suddenly felt that the whole world was pure.

But soon, with a bang, fireworks exploded in the sky, startling Su Ke.

Kosopech looked at Suk's shrinking neck and said with a smile: "At night, they will set off a bunch of fireworks every once in a while, which constantly disturbs our sleep."

"What should I do if I can't sleep?"

Su Ke patted his chest with lingering fear.

"Find a way by yourself." Kosopech smiled and took out the earplugs; "When I am away from home, I usually take them with me."

Head coach Van Steyak led the players to register and check into the hotel.

The hotel is not big, more like a hotel than a hotel.

The two of them shared a room, and Suker and Modric were assigned a room smoothly.

After the two came to the room, they put their luggage aside. After briefly washing up, Modric took out a roll of paper towels.

"You can put it in your ears, that's fine"

Modric's words were choked, and he saw that Su Ke was lying on the bed and fell asleep.

It looked like he was sleeping deeply.

Modric couldn't help but smile, walked over and helped Suker take off his shoes and socks, rolled Suker towards another corner, pulled out the quilt, pulled it back, and finally covered Suker with the quilt.

Bang!
Fireworks burst into the sky, accompanied by the joking shouts and cheers of the Banja Luka Warriors fans.

Modric walked over and closed the curtains, then turned to look at Suker.

Suke chirped, turned over, and continued to sleep.

No intention of waking up at all.

"What a deep sleep!"

Suke's sleep quality is very good and he sticks to the bed to sleep.

When he is asleep, it is very difficult to wake him up.

And this ability has achieved excellent results at this time.

The next day, Su Ke got up in high spirits and slept until dawn, feeling very comfortable.

Modric also yawned and took out the paper from his ears. Although he fell asleep later, he slept well.

"Wash up and go eat."

Suker and Modric washed up immediately.

When they arrived at the restaurant, they found that many people were already sitting here.

Among them, Kosopech's eyes were drooped, unfocused, and there were dark circles under his eyelids.

"Good morning!"

Suk took breakfast and sat down next to Kosopechi.

The latter just nodded and took a mouthful of bread listlessly. After swallowing it, he yawned loudly.

"Captain, didn't you sleep well?"

Suk asked.

Kosopech felt a little dizzy, shook his head and said, "I didn't sleep at all."

"Didn't sleep all night?"

Su Ke said in surprise; "There's a competition today!"

Kosopech let out a long sigh.

He couldn't sleep, and there was nothing he could do.

Soon, head coach Van Steyak came over, and his mental state was not particularly good.

Van Steyak did some statistics and found that a small number of people had poor sleep at night.

Among them, the ones who sleep well are basically young people.

As for Kosopech
"I don't have to go to the field for a while. I'm going to catch up on some sleep."

Vansteyak said towards Kosopech.

The latter nodded.

He also felt very sleepy, but he was also too restless to sleep.

Van Steyak glanced at Kosopech, who was obviously out of shape, and turned to Suker and said, "Be prepared. If something unexpected happens, you may have to play the whole game."

"Accident? What accident?"

Van Steyak didn't say so.

However, after Suker and others returned from the Banja Luka Warriors' home court to adapt, they saw Kosopeci who was in an even worse mental state.

Kosopech's state at this time seemed to be more than ten years older, with swaying steps and yawning from time to time.

In this state, how can we still play the game?
Suk also understood that this was the so-called 'accident'.

Looking at Kosopech's state, Van Steyak also had to adjust his tactics.

"Change the lineup. Suker will start today's game." After a pause, Kosopech added; "Suker and Boamé will start, and Kosopech and Oliveira will serve as substitutes."

Oliveira's eyes widened, why was he playing as a substitute!

He had a good rest1
But Van Steyak didn't look at him at all, and said directly to goalkeeper Kish; "As the captain on the field, you have to shout more to boost morale."

Kish nodded immediately and said, "No problem."
