Coaching career started as a college team coach

The two strolled in the almost empty training base.

Wei Le pointed to an area outside the restaurant hall and said, "Before the start of next season, a coffee shop should be renovated here."

"You can drink coffee here, chat or something."

"That's good." Jota blinked, "Who proposed this?"

"I proposed it." Wei Le said, "Our base is still a bit monotonous."

"Monotonous?" Jota turned to look at Wei Le, "We even have an arcade, is this monotonous? Which other team has an arcade?"

"You are really satisfied with just games, but in the future our team will welcome more people from all over the world. Players, they don't necessarily like playing games, we must also provide them with ways to socialize. "

After hearing what Wei Le said, Jota whispered, "We are already better than many clubs."

"Yes, but it's not enough." Wei Le smiled, "We have to work towards the Champions League champion."

"Champions League, champion?" Jota was a little surprised, "Are you serious?"

"Yes." Wei Le nodded, "Don't you want to win the Champions League?"

"I want to, but..."

Wei Le understood what Jota meant, he didn't refute, just smiled and continued to move forward. Jota looked at the open space outside the restaurant again, as if he was imagining the possible decoration of the coffee shop in the future, but when he saw Wei Le walking away, he retracted his gaze and hurriedly walked a few steps to catch up.

"You went to the gym again today." Wei Le said.

Jota glanced at Wei Le a little uneasily, but he didn't find any anger in his expression, he looked normal.

"Well... I was stopped by you just five minutes after I arrived."

"You really want to play in the final, right?" Wei Le said with a smile.

Jota did not answer. Although he did not catch the meaning of blame from Wei Le's words, he could feel that Wei Le was not very happy that he went to exercise in advance against the doctor's wishes.

"I know that you have always wanted to play in the final. Not only for personal honor, but also because of your relationship with Simeone. But you got injured at the most critical moment." Wei Le stopped, "To be fair, if it were me, I would be in a very bad mood."

"But I don't know if the doctor told you that if you rashly go to the gym to exercise in this situation, you may hurt yourself again. I think you must understand this truth."

"I understand, but." Jota whispered, "I feel uncomfortable lying at home. I want to get better faster, at least when my leg is injured, other parts of my body can be active."

Wei Le did not continue on this topic, nor did he comment on Jota's answer.

"As for the final, I have already thought about how to play."

Under Jota's curious eyes, Wei Le repeated what he said in the tactical meeting to Jota. Jota nodded repeatedly after listening, and when Wei Le finished speaking, he came back to his senses.

To control the midfield, he needs his help.

He looked at Wei Le, who seemed to be smiling, with a hint of disbelief in his eyes.

"Boss, have you considered me?"

Wei Le nodded and said with a smile, "Yes."

"This morning, the doctor told me that you will definitely be able to play in the finals, but you may not be able to support the entire game, and you may not be in the best competitive state."

"Since you can play, why shouldn't I let you play?"

Jota's voice trembled a little, "I thought, I thought I couldn't play..."

"Originally, the doctor told me the same thing. He said I should be able to play, but I wouldn't be in the best condition. At that time, I was thinking that the boss shouldn't let someone who is not in the best condition play."

Wei Le said faintly, with a smile, "It's just that someone is still disobedient today, not following the doctor's advice, and training privately, which gives me a headache."

"Ah!" Jota was frightened, "I won't exercise by myself! I'll change, I'll change!"

Wei Le laughed.

The two continued to move forward.

"In fact, some people in the coaching staff were skeptical about this. They felt that instead of taking a risk because of a player who was not in the best condition and having to use up a substitution quota, it would be better not to use him at all."

Hearing the doubts of the coaching staff, Jota became depressed again. He had to admit that what the coaches said made sense.

"But I insisted on my decision."

"There is only one reason, that is, in front of this game, you are the one who wants to win the most in the team."

"I'm not saying that everyone is not willing to win, but this game has a different meaning for you. You want to prove it to the world, prove"It's a mistake for Simeone not to choose you. You are the brightest future star of Portugal."

After saying this, Wei Le turned his head to look at Jota and asked, "Is that right?"

Jota nodded without hesitation, "Yes."

"Sometimes, a firm will is more important than technology and state."

"Let me tell you a story."

Wei Le found a bench and motioned Jota to sit down with him.

"You know, China and the United States had a war in the 1950s. At that time, the new country had just been born and everything was in a stage of being rebuilt. The United States entered its heyday after World War II and was one of the most powerful countries in the world."

"The Korean War!" Jota replied. He learned history well in middle school and still had some impression of this term that appeared in the textbook.

"Well, we call this war 'Resisting the United States and Aiding Korea, Defending the Homeland'. "Wei Le nodded, and then said, "At that time, the United States had more supplies and more advanced weapons than China. Therefore, every step taken by the Chinese and North Korean armies was a huge sacrifice."

"In a battle, in order to get closer to the US military positions in order to launch an attack, the Chinese volunteer soldiers lurked dozens of meters in front of the enemy's positions."

Although Ruota didn't understand why Wei Le told such a historical story, he still followed Wei Le's description and his thoughts returned to that war-torn era.

"It was at night, in order to capture the position by surprise, the soldiers couldn't move at all."

"But at this moment, the enemy suddenly approached the ambush area!"

"In order to cover the ambush troops, the command post of the Volunteer Army ordered the artillery to attack the enemy. After being hit, the enemy sent out aircraft for reconnaissance and blindly fired reconnaissance incendiary bombs. "

"There was an incendiary bomb that fell beside a cluster of wormwood, and a Chinese soldier was lurking in the bushes. "

"The flying sparks splashed on his left leg, burning his cotton coat, hair and flesh. There was a ditch next to him. He could put out the fire by rolling in it, but it would also alert his comrades and they would be discovered. In order not to expose the hidden troops, he strictly abided by the discipline, gritted his teeth, and dug his hands deep into the soil. He endured the severe pain with amazing perseverance, without making a sound or moving a muscle!"

"Until he died a heroic death."

"His sacrifice paid off. The U.S. military did not discover the nearby danger. That night, the hidden volunteer soldiers seized the position in one fell swoop and won the victory, but..."

"The 26-year-old soldier stayed far away from home forever. ”

“Oh my god…”

Ruota opened his mouth wide. After listening to it, he didn’t know what to say for a while.

He had never heard of this story. Before this, he knew very little about the war. He had only seen the term in books and knew that it existed. But he didn’t expect such a heroic deed.

He thought about it. If it were him, he would probably not be able to bear it.

What kind of willpower supported this soldier to remain motionless under the burning flames?!

“As you can see, the Korean War ended with a tie between China and the United States. But a newly established agricultural country actually tied with an industrial country that was countless times stronger than itself, which shocked the whole world. ”

“In that war, this sacrificed soldier was just one of the thousands of victims. The Chinese military and civilians’ high fighting will and their determination to defend their country were the driving force that supported them to repel the invading enemy again and again. ”

“There is an old saying in China that when two sides meet on a narrow road, the brave one wins. "

"Perhaps at this critical moment, what can help you is not the weapon in your hand, but your determination to show your sword."

"Diogo, you have such determination, I can feel your desire for victory. That is why I 100% believe that you will contribute all your strength in the game."

"I will send you to play, I will."

Wei Le said firmly, he turned his head and saw Jota's eyes flashing in front of him.

"Boss, I won't let you down."
