Chapter 240: List to face Switzerland
After defeating the Greek and Australian teams three to zero in a row, the players and coaches of the R national team are more confident than before.
As the head coach, Irido Mifune also took out the schedule for the last game of the group stage against the Swiss team when the players and support staff returned to the hotel.
The two doubles teams originally arranged by coach Mifune were Watanabe and Ishida, and Kite and Omagari. One of the two has amazing power, the other has unparalleled defense.
As for the singles players, Byodoin, Tokugawa and Irie were arranged respectively.
If the last game was played at home by junior high school students, then this time it was barely dominated by high school students.
However, before Coach Mifune announced the list, Amamune Arashi took Liu to find the other party in private. I don’t know what they said between them. Anyway, when Amamune Arashi and Liu Renji came out, Coach Mifune was also smiling. Out.
And Byodoin also got a list that was not consistent with what the coach had revealed before.
Byodoin had some doubts in their hearts, but they didn't show it on their faces. After reading out the list of members for the next day's match against Switzerland to the high school and junior high school students, Byodoin walked towards Coach Mifune's room.
"Old man! Didn't you mean..." Byodoin hurriedly spoke as soon as he opened the door.
"Hey! Don't worry~" Coach Mifune sat on the sofa boldly, pouring some wine into his mouth from time to time, "That guy has a point."
"Although I want them to wake up, there is really no need to pretend to be weak when they are clearly strong." Mifune Irido's face was flushed, but his eyes became increasingly clear and alert.
"And... directly qualifying first in the group stage, this is also good news for the country... at least let them understand that the U-17 base is not without its efforts..."
Coach Mifune's words were a bit messy, but Byodoin, who had also experienced dashed hopes, also got the news he wanted from these few sentences.
"Then I'll leave first. You drink slowly!" Looking helplessly at Coach Mifune who was still pouring himself wine, Byodoin quickly left the other party's room.
"Hey~ I'm old, I'm old~ I haven't even seen it clearly yet." Irido Mifune shook his head, recalling what Amamiya Lan said before, "It's not advisable to hide one's clumsiness," "Geniuses are not afraid of failure and criticism," etc. A series of words.
Originally, according to his plan, he had to hide at least two of the four junior high school students who could learn different dimensions until the finals or semi-finals before releasing them. But the spirit of Tiangong Lan and Liu directly overturned his plan.
Forget it, at least there is that kid Nioh. Although he was on the roster for the match against Australia, he didn't play after all... he was still a trump card. Moreover, Yukimura-chan hasn’t used his other dimension yet... Moreover, even if Amamiya-boy and Yanagi-boy are on the field, they don’t necessarily have to go all out to win...
Mifune shook his head and thought.
……
After the Byodo-in announced the list of players to compete with the Swiss team the next day, Amamiya Arashi uncharacteristically did not follow Yukimura, but went to Yanagi.
"..." Liu helplessly looked at the guy who stayed in his room and refused to leave, and kept saying something he wanted to say. His eyes were full of tiredness, "What's the matter with you?"
"Let's play doubles together ~ Renji!" Amangong Lan looked at Liu with a smile.
"So this is what you do?!" Liu said in disbelief, and then he looked at Tiangong Lan with a normal expression, "I agreed, you can leave now!!!"
"..." As if he could hear Liu's anger hidden under his calm words, Tian Gonglan obediently stood up and left, "Then I'll leave first, bye Renji~"
After Amamiya Arashi left, Liu immediately looked at the list of doubles players of the Swiss team - two strong players, Randy Pugu and Albert Federer, as well as Peter Laimbeer and the so-called power players. Henry Nobel III, a genius nobleman.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
Liu Fan looked at the materials and information in the notebook and tapped the pen on the table.
Power type...Randy and Albert were eliminated first, so is Lan's target Peter Laimbeer or Henry Noble III?
Looking at the two names circled by himself, Liu was a little confused. Then he looked through the information again, trying to find if there was anything he had overlooked before.
……
After leaving Yanagi's room, Amamiya Arashi first planned to get some dessert or something and go back to the room, but unexpectedly he saw Yukimura, Nioh, and Marui gathered together in the corner.
So, he quite naturally changed his mind and walked towards the corner where the three people were.
"Lan!"
Marui just looked up and saw Amamiya Arashi walking towards them. When Yukimura and Nioh heard Marui's call, they raised their heads and followed each other's gaze.
"Yo~" Tian Gonglan held up the plate and greeted the three super people, then came to the empty seat and sat down.
Looking at Amamiya Arashi sitting down neatly, Yukimura smiled and said, "Is the matter done?"
"Uh-huh~ Of course!" Tian Gonglan put the cake in one hand and held the plate with the other, with a smile on her face.
"What's going on?"
"The military advisor agrees to play doubles with you?"
The voices of Marui and Nioh sounded at the same time. After speaking, Marui looked at Nioh in surprise, "Fox, how do you know?"
"...It's obvious! What else can this guy do when he goes to find a military advisor to cooperate with him?"
Niou spread his hands and said matter-of-factly.
"That's it! But... Lan, why do you want to play doubles?" Marui looked at Amamiya Lan again in confusion.
Amamiya Lan put down the fork in his hand and said with a smile, "Well~ firstly, because there are two guys in the Swiss team who are very interesting and I want to try against them. Secondly, because I am also quite interested in Renji's strength. There haven’t been many good opportunities to compete recently, but as a partner, I can almost feel the opponent’s strength level..."
"The third reason is because someone's quota is to replace the doubles player selected by the original coach." Yukimura also added with a smile.
"I don't want to lose three games in a row~" Amamiya Lan pursed his lips, "Based on Coach Mifune's original arrangement, we will definitely lose the two doubles matches."
"?!" Marui opened his mouth in surprise, "Definitely losing? How could it be! We defeated Greece and Australia three to zero!"
"A arrogant soldier will be defeated~ And it is very unlikely that Daqu-senpai and Mu Shu can defeat that Henry together. He is also a genius junior high school student..." Amamiya Lan very casually talked about the man who was called by the fans as 'the genius. Gongzi' guy.
"But...then it's impossible to lose three games in a row, right?"
Marui wanted to struggle again.
"The high probability of playing three singles matches is Amadeus, their leader and a professional player."
"Randy and Albert, the other team in the doubles, are known for their unparalleled power in the tennis world. It is unlikely that Ishida and Watanabe-senpai will defeat them. If it were two Watanabe-senpai, it might still be possible...Ishida's The guy is still a little weaker.”
Amamiya Arashi and Yukimura spoke alternately, and Yukimura obviously agreed with Amamiya Arashi's point of view. If Daqu and Mu Shou were to face Henry and Peter Laimbeer according to the original plan, it would still be very likely that they would lose 3-0.
After hearing a lot of words spoken by the two people one after another, Marui finally no longer had doubts, but became worried.
