Strong Waist - Chapter 784
Chapter 784 Warm-up match! Sporting Portugal
“Everyone will go back to take a shower after stretching. It may rain at night, and the temperature is low. Wear more clothes, don’t catch a cold!”
Lucky’s voice sounded in the center.
But for the three little ones, they have basically lost their ability to move. After an hour of confrontation, the main players may have more to say, but the test for the three little ones is huge.
The quality, rhythm and intensity of the game are far beyond the youth training period.
However, this friendly match also made them gain a lot. They finally understood the gap between themselves and the first-team players and saw how to make up for this gap and how to integrate into the team.
“Don’t lie down no matter how tired you are, take a few deep breaths, then get up and stretch!”
Looking at the three little ones lying sprawled on the ground, he could not help but remind with a smile.
The three little ones could only obey Le Kai’s order, and after finishing stretching, they dragged their exhausted bodies into the locker room.
“The warm-up match will start in two days, right?”
After Lukaku finished rinsing, he asked Lucy who was changing clothes in the locker room.
Lucky nodded; “There are a total of three warm-up matches this season, which is a little less in comparison, but considering that you have just finished playing the European Cup and the America’s Cup, try to focus on self-cultivation as much as possible.”
Hearing this, Lukaku shook his arms and said, “I don’t feel so tired!”
“Because you went home in the quarterfinals!”
The poisonous Wilshere laughed.
Lukaku counterattacked: “The top 16 is not qualified to be the top eight!”
Wilshere is also depressed.
Talking about the topic of the European Cup, the Arsenal players in the locker room had different expressions, but no one showed a happy expression.
Neither Uruguay, Argentina, England, Belgium, etc. have performed well.
And Giroud’s French team won the runner-up, but the runner-up is completely different from the champion. Although there is only one pick difference, one is in the sky and the other is in the ground.
For this reason, they have great expectations for the next league and European games.
What’s more, Arsenal can play in the Champions League this season.
This is the key!
The main players are gearing up for a big fight.
After washing, everyone started to walk out of the locker room one by one.
Lucky and Wilshere were the last to leave.
Le Kai held the lock of the locker room in his hand, looked at the three cuddly little ones sleeping together in the corner, and said helplessly, “How can this be done?”
Wilshere went straight to action.
“Get up! Training is over, go home and sleep if you want to sleep!”
After finishing speaking, Wilshere picked them up one by one.
Wilshere drove the three of them out of the locker room like ducks, turned to Le Kai and said, “I’ll send the three of them back.”
Lucy nodded with a smile.
This guy Wilshere is a typical knife mouth, tofu heart.
Maybe because he has experienced the difficult process from youth training to the first team, so he is particularly active about the three little ones.
It’s just that there are some problems with the way of expression.
After locking the locker room, Le Kai went straight to the underground garage to go home.
For the upcoming warm-up match, Le Kai is not looking forward to it, but he is still very much looking forward to the league and European games.
Especially the Champions League stage!
Arsenal failed to participate in the Champions League last season, which itself is a bit of a pity.
Although he won the Europa League and made history, Lucky still wants to participate in the Champions League and have the feeling of extreme confrontation.
And this season can finally come true.
The most important thing is that Arsenal are in good shape.
Two days later, the Arsenal team flew to Lisbon, Portugal.
Their first warm-up match opponent is Sporting Lisbon from the Portuguese Super League, which should be called Sporting Lisbon now.
This is the stage where Lucky officially debuted in the professional arena, although here, Lucky failed to shine, or even become the core of the starting lineup.
But I am still full of affection for this place.
When he first joined Arsenal, Lucky never thought that he could really integrate into it. Although he tried his best, he was also prepared to fail.
A farewell is six years, and things have already changed.
Although there are familiar streets, familiar venues, and familiar equipment, the former people have already changed groups.
As a result, the current Portuguese sports are almost completely changed, and there is no one Luckai knows.
“Hey! That black-haired brat!”
Lucky is stepping on the field at the home stadium of Sporting Lisbon.
At this time, an old laugh came from behind.
Lucy turned his head to look over, and immediately asked in surprise: “Paul?”
This is an old man in clean overalls with gray hair but full of energy.
Paul Stricker is the field manager of Sporting Portugal. He has been working here for decades and has always served the club.
For a club, this kind of staff is an absolute gem.
After all, decades have been like a day, the most important thing is that they have full experience and are full of affection for the team.
Just like this moment, Paul Strick hugged Lucy tightly, as if welcoming his favorite child.
He grabbed Le Kai’s shoulder and looked up and down.
Once, twice. Never tire of watching.
“Six years have passed before I know it, and the boy who was as thin as a monkey has become so strong now!”
Paul Stricker’s impression of Lucky is still that thin Asian boy when he left the club.
The feeling that Lucky gave Paul Stricker at the beginning was a boy who was very stable in defense and sometimes surprised people.
But definitely not linked to genius.
But six years later, Lucky is amazed by what he has accomplished.
The captain of the Premier League giants Arsenal!
Champion honors!
And it is not an exaggeration to call him the world’s number one midfielder.
“Welcome home! Kid!”
Paul Stricker patted Lucy on the shoulder and smiled happily.
Le Kai also chatted with the other party for a while before returning to the team to continue training.
On the second day, they will have a warm-up match with Sporting Portugal here.
This is an open game, fans will come to watch.
Portuguese sports said that this is a welcome ceremony to welcome their children.
Of course, Lucy knew very well that he was a little transparent when he left.
Now that they have achieved great success, Sporting Portugal just wants to catch the heat.
But after all, it is a club where he stepped into a profession, and Le Kai has no objection to it.
On the second day, a large number of Portuguese sports fans flocked to the Alvalade Stadium.
The climax of the start of the season, the warm-up match with Arsenal, Lucky’s return to the Alvalade Stadium again, these gimmicks have made the Portuguese sports fans extremely enthusiastic.
Currently, for the fans of Sporting Portugal, Cristiano Ronaldo and Lucky are undoubtedly the two players with the best output in Europe.
Although Le Kai is not Portuguese, he also represents the results of the Portuguese youth training, and even made his professional debut at the Alvalade Stadium. These are enough for them to regard Le Kai as their own.
Of course, the most important thing is that Lucky performed very well.
Lucky’s performance made them proud.
“Kay!! Welcome home!”
“Look here! Kay!”
“Hey! Hey! Hey!, Kay!”
“Can I have an autograph?”
Before the warm-up match started, the fans of Sporting Portugal became extremely jubilant.
Most of their attention was on Lucky, sending him great blessings.
To be honest, Lucy was a little embarrassed.
After all, he was still a little transparent during his time at Sporting Lisbon. Let alone cheers, he was hardly even noticed.
But at this moment, the fans of Sporting de Portugal always feel a little disconnected from the incomparable enthusiasm they showed.
Of course, Lucky is very happy about this.
“This place has completely become the captain’s home field!”
“After all, it’s a comeback show!”
“The captain’s popularity is so high!”
Arsenal players are observing the surrounding situation.
Soon, Le Kai ran over and called everyone to gather in front of the coach’s bench.
This means that the warm-up match is about to start.
“The starting list is announced now!”
With Mourinho’s words, everyone became tense.
After all, this starting list is likely to represent Mourinho’s positioning for the main force this season.
Especially for players like Giroud who need to compete for posts, he also looks forward to Mourinho putting himself in the starting position, although this possibility is unlikely.
