As soon as Cohen Melbourne opened the door, he saw the team's head coach Kevin Locke in a daze, so he asked, "What's the matter? Are you still worried about losing to the Turin Bulls?"
In the Champions League group stage in the middle of the week, Tramed lost 1:3 at home to the Turin Bulls. This defeat immediately cast a shadow over Tramed's group qualifying situation.
Tramed originally ranked first in this group with nine points.
As a result, this round of the group stage was defeated, and they lost to the Turin Bulls at their home court. As a result, the Turin Bulls and Tramed shared nine points, but surpassed Tramed with a goal difference advantage and temporarily ranked first in the group.
At the same time, the Bundesliga team Saxony Stadt, who was second in the group with nine points, lost away to St. Petersburg Metallurgical.
As a result, in this group, three teams have nine points.
Except for St. Petersburg Metallurgy, which has only three points, and has already been eliminated early, the situation of who will qualify and who will not qualify in the final round is still confusing.
Tramed, who had always been ranked first in the group, is now in danger of being eliminated from the group, because they will go to an away game against Saxony Stad in the last round.
Under the leadership of Kevin Locke, Tramed spent four seasons and was finally able to return to the Champions League. If he went home after the group stage, it would be a blessing for Tramed's revival. A hard hit.
That's why Melbourne immediately thought of the team's Champions League situation when he saw Locke frowning.
Unexpectedly, when Locke heard Mel Boni's words, he came back from his distracted state and asked him with a confused face: "Turin Bull? What does it have to do with the Italians?"
"Huh? Aren't you worried about losing to the Turin Bulls?" Melburne was also quite surprised.
"Anxiety is annoyance, but I didn't because of this just now. I was just thinking about the weekend league, how to avenge Leeds City at home." Locke said.
Melbourne smacked his forehead.
Leeds City!
Just finished the Champions League group stage, Tramed will welcome Leeds City in the league, and it is still at home!
Against this opponent at home,
For Tramed, it has a very special meaning.
It was their loss to Leeds City at the Red Top Stadium last season that caused a series of chain reactions today:
Leeds City has become a symbol of courage to resist power. Their championship is a "victory for the common people". Instead, Tramed has become a representative of the stubborn old forces that hinder the progress of the world... In addition, Leeds City also participated in the Champions League because of this, although now Already bid farewell to the Champions League knockout match in advance. However, their 4:2 victory over Catalan United at the Sagrada Familia Stadium still shocked the whole of Europe.
In the past six months, everyone has been discussing Leeds City and Hu Lai.
They became the stars of the stars, enjoying the support of thousands of people.
And it all started when Leeds beat Tramed 3-2.
Or to be more specific, it was Ricardo Balia's penalty saved from Leeds City, and successfully pushed the counterattack to Tramed's goal, and finally Hou Lai scored the lore goal... started.
This ball became the best goal in the Premier League last season, and was also selected as the top ten candidates for the best goal in world football this year.
In this way, Tramed was forever placed on the "pillar of shame".
When everyone looks back on the top ten goals in 2026 in the future, there will definitely be a chance for Tramed to appear. When recalling the 2025-2026 Premier League season, Tramed will also play an important supporting role.
Leeds City not only stepped on Tramed's body to the Premier League championship, but also made Tramed a laughing stock-the lore goal was widely spread around the world because of enough drama.
"I don't think there should be any big problems this time. After last season's failure, Ricardo has put in more effort in training, and his strength has improved a lot compared to last season. And there is absolutely no 'underestimating the enemy' this time." The situation, the morale of the team is high, and it is our home court... Leeds City can't replicate the scene of saving our penalty and then killing us again?" Mel Bonny said half-jokingly.
Locke's expression looked very serious: "In football, it's better not to presuppose the situation in advance, who knows what will happen then? And speaking of Ricardo... I am most worried about him now."
"Worried about him?"
"Well, that lore goal in Leeds City came from his penalty being saved."
Melbourne fell silent upon hearing this.
This matter is indeed a knot in Ricardo Balea's heart.
It was also from that game that everyone could feel that the Portuguese boy had become a lot more silent, as if he hadn't been separated from that game.
It stands to reason that professional players will suffer a lot of failures, so they must learn how to face failures and how to cheer up from the emotions of failures.
But it is not possible to maintain a normal state of mind in the face of all failures.
Some particularly tragic failures will also form a kind of knot for professional players, which makes them brood.
Although it will not be a stumbling block to their progress, but thinking about it from time to time, or letting the fans sing in the stands will always make the parties themselves feel depressed.
Melburne can even imagine that if the next round of the league is not at home but away, then all the Leeds City fans will make Barea miss the penalty In the song, singing non-stop...
Locke didn't care about Melbourne's sudden silence, but continued:
"However... this is also an opportunity for Ricardo. To become the top player, this is like an indispensable test in life. If a setback makes him lose his calm and reason, then he may It will take a long detour. But if he is not defeated...then his future is worth looking forward to!"

"Barea! Barea was pushed down! The referee points to the penalty spot...it's a penalty!! My God! It's a penalty! In the 92nd minute of the game, Tra Dmitry won a penalty!! This is a fatal penalty! This is a penalty that can almost kill the suspense of the league championship!! At such an important moment, Leeds City was sentenced to death!"
The entire red-roof stadium burst into thunderous cheers.
"Kirk handed the penalty to Barea... Barea stood in front of the penalty spot and he will take the penalty of his own creation... on this young man , shouldering the great responsibility of belonging to the league title for a whole season... As a leader of Portugal's golden generation, although Barea is young, he is also a player who has seen big scenes... He just needs to kick this ball into Leeds City goal, then the Premier League title will be decided..."
In the picture is a close-up shot of the penalty player Balia, who is looking at the court, not knowing what is going on in his mind.
His agent, Felipe Ferreira, heard the voices coming from the mobile phone, and said helplessly to Balea who was sitting opposite him: "It's really unnecessary, Ricardo, you have already repeated this video. I've seen it many times... there's really no need to watch it again."
"No, Felipe. It is necessary, very necessary." Barea, who stared at the phone screen without pausing the video, replied to his manager while watching.
In the video, he has taken a deep breath and kicked the ball.
He pushed a shot in the middle, but was blocked by the Leeds goalkeeper Van De Ven who fell to the ground not so quickly, and he rushed up to make a supplementary shot, but the supplementary shot also hit Van De Ven's chest!
"I thought too much before taking the penalty and I didn't play at my normal level... As for the shot, there wasn't much I could do... That's the problem, Felipe. I It's not pure enough." Barea finally looked away from the phone screen and looked up at his manager.
He calmly analyzed his problem.
"I'm always thinking wildly at critical moments. It's unnecessary. That's why I watch this video often, just to remind me not to forget the mistakes I made because of my stupidity."
The video on Barea's mobile phone has been shown on Hu Lai's goal. The huge noise on the scene is accompanied by the exclamation and roar of the commentator Matthew Cox, which is full of presence. Even if Ferreira didn't look at the picture, but just listened to the sound, it seemed that he had returned to that day.
He had witnessed Tramed's defeat from his VIP box.
For a moment, the entire Red Roof Stadium fell into silence.
Even the "VIPs" who usually talked in the box and didn't pay attention to the game at all, were briefly absent-minded, and then exclaimed inconceivably.
People always criticize that the seats in the boxes of the Red Roof Stadium are not Tramed fans, but celebrities from all over the world. They watch the football at the famous Red Roof Stadium, and it is nothing more than a kind of social interaction, just Just to show off they can watch the game here.
They don't really care about the game, and they don't care about Tramed.
Tramed is very famous, but this kind of fame makes these "outsiders" squeeze out the position of fans who really love the team.
The VIP boxes and ordinary stands of the Red Roof Stadium are like two completely different worlds.
For ordinary fans, the Red Roof Stadium is a football temple they defend to the death. But the VIPs in the box only regard this place as a novel and fashionable "dance floor" where they pursue fame and fortune.
But that time, Hu Lai's goal made these celebrities feel the impact and charm of football in the nearest place, and brought their attention and focus back to football itself...
This is football!
In the absence of Felipe Ferreira, the video has been played to the end.
A close-up shot of Barea appeared again in the picture, but it was his hands on his knees, his head slightly raised, and he looked at the Leeds City players who were running wildly to celebrate.
Balia pressed the pause button to freeze the scene on the phone screen.
This is the picture.
After that game, his bewildered and sluggish face repeatedly appeared on the Internet, where he was ridiculed, ridiculed and cursed by countless people.
"I used to hate seeing me like this...but now I think it's pretty good after looking at it for a long time." Balia laughed and said to Ferreira: "I even want to ask someone to draw this picture Get down and hang out in my gym. That way every time I'm tired and want to slack off, I can see myself like an idiot and maybe pick myself up."
Felipe Ferreira opened his mouth and finally closed it again, not knowing what to say to Balia.
This kid seems to understand everything...
