Extraordinary coach
Chapter 377 Don’t Give Up
"No!! How come we conceded another goal?"
The fans who were cheering for Brazil sat down in frustration.
Looking at the French cheering wildly, they all felt uncomfortable in their chests.
Sun Yi also stroked his forehead in disappointment.
He was really depressed and helpless. This goal was almost the same as the last one.
It was still a quick counterattack by the French team, and Mbappe made a low cross from the bottom. The only difference was that this time it was not Thiago Silva's own goal. Instead, Griezmann grabbed the first point.
This goal changed the score to 0-2, and Brazil was two goals behind from now on.
Being two goals behind before the end of the first half was really a big problem. Many Brazilian fans began to lose confidence in this game.
"We're two goals behind in the first half. What should we do next?"
"If we can't catch up with one goal before the end of the first half, I'm afraid there's no hope for this game."
Pele was sitting in the VIP seat now, dejected.
When he lost the first goal, he severely punished his bad mouth. Now, he didn't even have the mood to slap himself.
Has there ever been a comeback after falling behind by two goals in the World Cup knockout stage?
Yes, but in the entire World Cup history, there have only been six times that a comeback was achieved after falling behind by two goals in the knockout stage.
And there has never been a big comeback after falling behind by two goals in the World Cup final!
There has never been one in history!
So, Pele was completely desperate. As a player who played in the World Cup final and won the championship, he knew that the World Cup trophy was away from the Brazilian team from this moment on.
"It's over! It's over!"
"The World Cup champion is no longer our Brazilian team."
And in the stands, among the three presidents, Macron was so excited that he seemed to have won the victory.
"Haha. Two to zero. We'll win!"
"This World Cup champion belongs to us, France. This trip is worth it! Haha~~~"
Bolsonaro on the other side had disappointment written all over his face. He was obviously very restless amid the cheers of Macron next to him.
If he wasn't afraid of being impolite, he would have turned around and left.
Macron was smiling happily, and when he saw that Bolsonaro looked unhappy, he quickly put away his smile. He wanted to pretend to be indifferent, but he couldn't hide his smile on his face.
"Yeah~ Mr. Bolsonaro, don't be sad. You Brazilian team still have a chance. There's still a lot of time to play."
Macron's pretending to be generous and comforting his opponent was a kind of winner's boasting in Bolsonaro's eyes.
However, Bolsonaro is a mature politician after all. He smiled professionally and nodded when he heard it.
"Yes. You're right."
Then he gave Macron a middle finger in his heart.
The game on the field has started again.
After the restart, the Brazilian team seemed less motivated than before.
There was no way, the second goal was too depressing. Because they also understood that being two goals ahead of the opponent in this kind of game was basically equivalent to being sentenced to death.
It can be said that the morale of the Brazilian team has dropped significantly. Even the confidence has suffered a huge blow.
However, the game is not over yet, they still have to work hard.
However, their efforts were frustrated again.
The French team's defense was originally very solid, and at this moment, their morale was at its peak, making the defense even more impregnable.
When the Brazilian team attacked now, it always felt like attacking a tightly defended city. In addition to being hit hard, it was difficult to gain anything.
The blow of this offensive setback was also very huge.
The morale of the Brazilian team became more and more depressed.
"Cheer up!"
"There's still plenty of time left in the game, the sky hasn't fallen yet."
"Attack! We will definitely score! Believe in yourself!!"
"It's not like we haven't fallen behind before. Go for it, we will definitely come back!"
Sun Yi began to think of ways to boost the morale of the Brazilian team.
The effect of his morale boosting this time was relatively average. However, the Brazilian team continued to attack. Although they had little confidence in their hearts, they still wanted to try.
However, the French team's defense was really good. Coupled with the rise and fall of the morale of both sides, the Brazilian team completely lost the confidence to score.
In the following time, until the end of the first half, the Brazilian team was unable to score again. There were also not many threatening shots.
This situation made the Brazilian players who returned to the locker room with two goals behind dejected.
Even a veteran like Kaka who had experienced all kinds of storms seemed to have no confidence.
The frustration of failure filled the entire locker room.
Sun Yi returned to the locker room and immediately felt this disappointing emotion.
His brows furrowed, and then his face was filled with anger.
"Raise your heads. You guys are so disappointing to me."
"Look at you guys, you're all like defeated chickens, so disappointing to me."
Sun Yi's anger made the players' heads hang even lower. What can we do when the game ends like this?
"Look at your chests, what's that?"
"That's the Brazilian flag. You wear this shirt to represent the honor of the entire Brazilian people and the great Brazilian football. You don't deserve to wear this jersey if you look so dejected."
"Raise your heads. You are the Brazilian team, not cowards who give up when you fall behind. Don't disgrace this shirt!"
In Sun Yi's roar, the Brazilian players finally raised their heads. But they still looked frustrated.
So Sun Yi continued, "Is the game over?"
"Answer me."
"No." The players replied in a low voice.
"No, then who are you showing your dead dad to? To the fans?"
"The fans don't want to see your expressions. What they want to see is a Brazilian team that will not give up easily even if they fall behind. What they want to see is a Brazilian team that will fight to the end until the end of the game."
"Remember, as long as you put on this outfit, you have no right to be depressed or give up before the end of the game."
"Tell me, do you still want to play in the second half? If not, I can tell the referee that we give up the game."
"Yes." "We don't want to give up the game."
"Since you do, you don't want to give up the game. Then get rid of your damn cowardly emotions."
"After leaving here, I want to see you calm and determined."
"Yes. Boss."
Seeing that most of the players' faces began to firm up, Sun Yi nodded.
Then he calmed down and said: "In the second half, we must let go of all distractions and make a last-ditch effort. Press all of you to attack!"
There is no point in thinking about other things after falling behind by two goals. Brazil can only use all its players to attack in order to break through France's damn defense.
"France's frontal defense is too tight. In the second half, we will focus on the two flanks. Play more crosses."
"In addition, we need to find ways to commit more fouls in the middle. Set pieces will be a very important means for us."
"Neymar, you have to do this in the second half..."
Soon, the halftime break was over and both sides had to return to the court. Although Sun Yi wanted to talk about more details, he had no choice but to ask the players to prepare to play.
After coming out of the locker room and returning to the court, the Brazilian team's expressions were no longer as depressed as they were at the end of the first half. It seems that Sun Yi's shouting in the locker room was still useful.
The French team that returned was all smiling. Not only did they look very relaxed, but they were also talking and laughing, looking like they had a complete grasp of the victory.
"Haha, we are sure to win this game."
"As long as we use up the 45 minutes of the second half, the championship will be ours."
When Sun Yi returned to the sidelines, he heard Pogba say this to the World Cup trophy placed in the middle of the player's tunnel.
After hearing this, Sun Yi did not react, but turned around and shouted to the substitute players who were warming up.
"Adriano, come here. Get ready to play."
After Sun Yi called Adriano over and whispered something in his ear, he asked him to replace Firmino.
Firmino is a good player, both in terms of ability and quality.
However, he is a team player, and under normal circumstances, he will be very useful in the Brazilian team. However, facing the current French team, Firmino's characteristics are somewhat ineffective.
When the French team retreats to the backcourt, high-altitude balls are one of the necessary means of breaking defense. But Firmino is not strong enough and not tall enough. When facing a group of strong men who are nearly 190cm tall, his body of only 181cm is at a disadvantage.
Therefore, Sun Yi must now send Adriano, who is better at strong attack and breaking defense.
Seeing Adriano on the court, many people started to talk.
"The Brazilian team made a substitution. They replaced Adriano."
"Now they are two goals behind, what's the use of replacing Adriano?"
"Wouldn't it be better to send Adriano earlier? He played so well against the Belgian team. Why didn't he start?"
"Sun should have sent Adriano earlier. It's useless to send him now. Sun's arrangement is a failure!"
Before, everyone was attracted by the tense game and didn't pay much attention to other things. Now seeing Adriano on the court, many people began to think of his previous heroic performance. At the same time, they also began to question Sun Yi's arrangement.
Many people really couldn't understand why Sun Yi didn't let Adriano, who had performed heroically before, start.
But they didn't know that Sun Yi also had his own difficulties!
He also heard other people's comments and could only smile bitterly.
Adriano was able to perform so well in the match against Belgium because Sun Yi gave him a cheat.
The cheat that was originally intended to be used in today's final was used up. At this moment, Adriano is still not as good as Firmino in terms of overall strength.
And now Adriano only has half the physical strength. Weighing the pros and cons, Sun Yi can only choose Firmino to start.
However, after Adriano came on the court, he brought an effect that Sun Yi also found unexpected.
That is, it brought hope to many people. Especially those Chinese fans.
"Great. Adriano, the surprise player that Coach Sun always sends to turn the tide, has appeared."
"The Brazilian team is saved."
"Come on, Brazil!!!"
"Come on! Adriano!"
The optimism of the Chinese fans also affected the Brazilian fans. They were inexplicably infected by the Chinese fans' confidence in Adriano. Then they also cheered for the Brazilian team desperately.
"Boss, finally sent Adriano to play. We have hope." Kaka was the most encouraged player.
"Why do you say that?" Some of the other players on the Brazilian team did not understand where Kaka's confidence came from.
"I tell you, when the boss was in the club, he never let Adriano play easily. But once he was sent to play in difficult situations, it all brought amazing results. It often helped our players to achieve a reversal."
Kaka's words also gave the other players on the Brazilian team more confidence. And thinking of Adriano's performance after he came on the court against Belgium, everyone could have some expectations in their hearts.
In this way, Adriano brought a confidence boost to the Brazilian team as soon as he came on the court.
On the other side, Pavard, who was more familiar with Adriano, also frowned with some worry.
"Adriano is coming up, we have to be careful of him. He is very threatening."
But his teammates didn't think so.
"Don't worry. Pavard, how good can Adriano be? If he is really that good, why doesn't China's Sun let him start?"
"Coach Sun has always used Adriano like this in the club."
"It doesn't matter, even if Adriano is really as good as you say. But he won't have any chance under our defense. It's not that we are arrogant, our defense today is like the Maginot Line, anyone who comes will be broken and bloody."
The other defenders of the French team are really confident in themselves. They have already defended the Brazilian team to the point of wanting to vomit blood, and they don't believe that Adriano will bring about earth-shaking changes.
Soon, the second half of the game started.
The Brazilian team pressed all the way and attacked frantically. But the French team's defense was still very good. They didn't give the Brazilian team any chance at all.
After the second half started, the Brazilian team attacked frantically for a full ten minutes, but still failed to score.
Adriano, who was sent by Sun Yi in the second half, also did not perform well. Although he did increase the threat of high-altitude balls for the Brazilian team, there was no big threat.
"Palva, see. Adriano is just like this, not as good as you said. I feel he is not as good as Firmino."
"It seems so." Pavard was also a little strange. This is a little different from what he thought.
The Adriano who killed gods and Buddhas did not appear.
