Friday, August 14.

Generally speaking, the team's roster will be announced the day before the game, and all the teams will stay in the hotel that night, whether it is home or away.

The official starting list is announced on the day of the game, but often after the big list is announced the day before, the coach will chat privately with the players who entered the big list one by one, tell the other party whether they will start tomorrow, and explain the reasons.

Because there are many situations in which players started the previous game, but failed to enter the starting list in this game. In order to avoid the players’ mental gap, the coaches will explain the reasons to the players and enlighten their mental state.

After Xia Ze's training session in the morning, Martinez called Xia Ze to stop.

"Boss, what's the matter?" Xia Ze looked at Martinez with clear eyes.

After a week of training and adjustments, he has recovered from the loss of Sunday's abnormal performance. The extra training in the past few days has made him feel that his whole body is in the peak state.

Seeing Xia Ze's hasty expression, Martinez felt a little uncomfortable. After coughing lightly, he said, "Xia Ze, your training performance this week has been very good."

"Thank you coach, I will always work hard." Xia Ze thought that the other party was just trying to say something to himself, and immediately replied.

"However, for tomorrow's game, you will be on the bench." Martinez's next words sent Xia Ze from heaven to hell.

"What?" Xia Ze couldn't react.

"Listen, it's not because you're not strong enough, or because you didn't perform well in the last game, and it's not because you didn't work hard enough in training. On the contrary, I'm very satisfied with your training attitude." Martinez looked at Xia Ze said.

"But in the next half month, we will play five games, and tomorrow's game, we will have a new tactical arrangement to deal with each other, so you need to wait on the bench first..."

The voice of Martinez's explanation still rang in his ears, but Xia Ze didn't listen to anything.

He only knows about the hard training this week, and wants to prove to others that I, Xia Ze, will not lose myself because of one or two games, and I am still the player who can help the team win.

The so-called second-year rookie wall,

I can definitely cross over by myself. I'm going to be a top player and I'm going to pick myself up from where I fell.

But all these efforts seemed to be in vain because of Martinez's words.

Although he was still included in the roster and could still play for the team as a substitute, he still felt bad about being dropped from the consecutive starts.

Xia Ze didn't know how he left the training ground and returned to the apartment.

The training session on the day before the game is only in the morning, and the players who have entered the squad do not need to train in the afternoon. After they pack up at home, they will go to the hotel where the team is staying in the evening.

"Ze, what's the matter with you?" Seeing Xia Ze's distraught appearance, Wang Xiaolin thought something happened, so she hurriedly stepped forward and asked with concern.

"I failed to enter the starting lineup, the coach put me on the bench." Xia Ze said like a walking dead.

Wang Xiaolin's heart skipped a beat. She also understood how hard Xia Ze had been training this week, so that the two of them didn't even have the most intimate behavior this week. Xia Ze just wanted to concentrate on preparing for this game and prove it to the world. He is still that Xia Ze.

But I didn't expect the head coach to take his boyfriend out of the starting lineup. No need to think about it, she knew how disappointed Xia Ze was.

"Ze, although I didn't make it into the starting lineup, but... um." Wang Xiaolin was thinking about releasing Xia Ze, but Xia Ze suddenly hugged her and pressed his lips against her.

"Ze, you have to compete tomorrow..." Wang Xiaolin knew what Xia Ze's action meant. Although she wanted to, but considering that Xia Ze would have to conserve his energy for the competition tomorrow, she could only try her best to persuade her.

But Xia Ze kept kissing her as if he couldn't hear her at all.

Wang Xiaolin was able to persuade her at first, but with Xia Ze's caressing and kissing, she gradually fell in love, and her breathing became rough.

In the apartment during the day, a sudden gust of wind and rain hit.

Maybe it's because they haven't been intimate for a long time, the two of them lingered in the room for a long time before they finally rested.

Wang Xiaolin was lying in Xia Ze's arms, her face still blushing.

"You are so impulsive, people are afraid."

Xia Ze caressed Wang Xiaolin's hair, regretting being too impulsive just now. But he still smiled, and took the initiative to relieve Wang Xiaolin. The two whispered in the room, and the atmosphere was no longer depressed.

Although the behavior just now was indeed impulsive and crazy. It is taboo for players to have intimacy with their lover the day before the game.

Because the competition requires full physical and mental dedication, after experiencing the battle between lovers, the physical strength will be reduced anyway, and it is impossible to fully recover in a day.

But Xia Ze was really in a bad mood just now, if he entered the game day with such thoughts, it would be difficult to perform well.

After venting in this way, his mood became a little more cheerful, and he also understood the reason for the head coach's arrangement.

Now that you have entered the bench, you should be ready at any time, waiting for the call of the head coach, and perform well when you need to play.

Even if he is not in the starting lineup, he can have enough opportunities to help the team.

After figuring this out, Xia Ze no longer worries about why he failed to enter the starting list.

That night, the Everton team went to Southampton and stayed at the local hotel.

When the match list came out the next day, all the media were surprised. Southampton's coaches and players were also dumbfounded.

They practiced tactics for a week, setting restrictions on Everton's attacking midfielder and wingers based on Watford's approach to Xia Ze, but Martinez suddenly removed Xia Ze from the starting lineup, Instead, three engineer-type midfielders were deployed, and there was no offensive core at all in the frontcourt.

This makes them a little bit at a loss. Without the core of attack, who else will Wanyama in my team closely guard?

"Martinez made a very bold change in this game. He directly put Xia Ze, the team's offensive core, on the bench. I don't know if it was because Xia Ze was completely restricted by the opponent's midfielder in the last game or For other reasons, in short, Everton's tactics will change a lot in this game." Redknapp Jr. was obviously also surprised when he got the starting list of both sides.

Xia Ze missed the starting lineup, which was a surprise to anyone. c
