Chapter 317 – Legend, Beyond (3)

317

The season has passed the middle and entered the second half, the point where the end is visible.
Now, the number of games played is overwhelmingly greater than the remaining games.

The League Cup is already over, and only the league matches, the FA Cup, and the Champions League remain.

Korea succeeded in facing a good sparring partner this time as well, following the last two matches.
Sweden and France.

Unlike the last Argentina-Chile disaster, it was played as a European expedition, not a home game, which was a schedule considering this World Cup held in Europe.

Unlike the last tearful sparring with South American countries, this European sparring made Korean soccer fans feel ambivalent.

—No, throb… What is this strange combination?
-Uh? What is this fucking formation? This is right?
—Small Mouth Fodder
—Wow~ I don’t know this~ This formation~ Yes~ I told you~~
—What kind of bullshit concepts are popping out ;; The most annoying thing is that the first one is talking and then the second one is
— He really listens to it haha ​​Isn’t this what it is? Used by AC Milan

One was the strange starting lineup and formation Korea showed against Sweden and France.

—But our way Kim?
—Kya~ This is the root haha ​​I got tired of the basic formation effect
—Ah haha ​​If we are unfamiliar, then the opponent is unfamiliar haha
—Is this a trick or something? The director’s ingenuity is gone;

Another is that the performance and results were surprisingly good.
They had an easy win against Sweden and a disappointing draw against France, where the 1.5 team started.

The important thing here is that Hong Min-joon’s appearance only took place after the middle of the second half.
In other words, the performance Korea showed without Hong Min-jun was better than expected.

Anyway, when the last A-match schedule before the World Cup ended, the public opinion of FC Korea supporters changed from criticizing to neutral.

Neutrality means ‘Is this going right… ? I don’t think so… But aren’t the results bad?’, Though it was close to chaos.

Unsurprisingly, pro players are people too.
Even machines tend to break down if they are poorly maintained, let alone humans.

As a matter of course, players who fail to manage tend to suffer from a decline in their skills.
At least, if you maintain a minimum level of professionalism, there are cases where your form drops slowly, or you wake up belatedly and raise or maintain your form again. .

Unexpectedly, a player’s form can be greatly shaken by even minor factors.
Why do world-class players who used to be good often fail in mental management or weight management? For example, Azar, Azar…

No matter how modern football trends are being implemented with a list of objective figures through scientific analysis, this is why parts such as individual tendencies, values, and ways of thinking that cannot be quantified are still evaluated as important factors.

It is because the individual player’s professional consciousness is decisive for condition management.
If you recruit a player with a low level of professionalism based only on his skill and potential, you may end up spending much more time on his hobby, golf, than on his main job, soccer.

In this time when players’ skills are gradually being leveled up through systematic analysis and efficient training, the importance of maintaining individual players’ skills at their peak for a long time is inevitably growing.

Yes, isn’t it natural that the importance of the factors that determine that ‘one-touch’ increase as everyone’s skills improve and the number of matches increases.

To this end, various methods were introduced, such as adjusting nutritional diets, operating psychological counseling programs, and recruiting experts for mental care.

Team atmosphere.
The atmosphere in the locker room, the team chemistry, the winning mentality, things called by various names.

Maengmo Samcheonjigyo, why didn’t you talk about the importance of the environment from the distant past?
No matter how professional a player is, if the team atmosphere is bad, it can’t be affected by it.

Highly professional, determined, positive and well-connected… If such a team atmosphere is created, players who have been negligent in taking care of their bodies will be able to look back on their lack of professionalism.

Frequently appearing out of nowhere teams, the ‘Blast Team’ where underdog teams swept the league all had this in common.

It could be said that the team atmosphere is something indescribable that brings out more than strength.
Even a relatively weak team becomes a team with a blast, but what if a strong team gets drunk with this atmosphere?

Fans who have already watched European football for a long time will have seen this case.

The situation where the strong team was even on the momentum.
The birth of the best teams of all time.

“Aww! Newcastle, what is Newcastle!! Today, I will crush my opponent with tremendous performance!! With today’s victory, Newcastle United are on a 7-game winning streak!!”
“If you combine the Champions League and cup competitions, that’s 13 consecutive victories in official competitions! I’m totally on fire!”
“What is encouraging is that it has been completed as a team. It is no longer a team led by one Hong Min-jun, but it feels like the victory plan has been completed through team synergy!”

As the second half of the season progressed, Newcastle’s performance was shining more brightly.

The potential of players with great potential is in full bloom, and the sum and breathing of the team, which has been maintained without major change for a long time, is becoming more sophisticated, but the biggest factor above all is the ‘relative’ advantage.

No matter how thoroughly they prepared, the performance of the players in the second half inevitably went down.
It’s hard physically, but the bigger problem is motivation.

It is not easy to maintain motivation as the possibility of ‘achievable achievements’ decreases, unless there is a fierce race to win or a fierce battle for the relegation zone.

When you lose motivation in a situation where you are already physically exhausted, you naturally start to neglect your physical condition management.

On the other hand, if the goal of ‘winning’ is right around the corner and the victory is a feat that will go down in history, the motivation of the players will also become stronger.

What if the team atmosphere is also the best?
Just like Newcastle right now, the more you go into the second half, the more powerful the phenomenon will occur.

Opponent teams are performing poorly, but what if our team maintains its performance or rises even more? Winning is always relative, and the gap is widening.

“Aaaaa!! Newcastle win the FA Cup and win two gold medals!!”
“Hong Min-joon’s performance was important, but we can’t leave out the performance of the rotation members, right? Newcastle players who show more strength as the season ends!!”

League Cup, FA Cup,

“Finally Newcastle win the league at home!!”
“Newcastle clinching the title with three games left! Chelsea also ran a winning streak and chased it to the end, but in the end it was Newcastle who won. Hey~ This is a victory that reminds me of last year.”
“It’s Newcastle’s second consecutive win and Chelsea’s second consecutive runner-up. Both teams have quite a bit of difference between Manchester City and Liverpool, right? Somehow, I think that a new era is coming to the EPL, which was divided between Man City and Liverpool.”

And up to the league.

Three domestic crowns, winning all competitions they participated in, Newcastle—

“Newcastle dominates England by winning two league titles, two league cups and one FA Cup over the past three years. Now I can say that with confidence. Newcastle is arguably the best club in England!!”

Founded a new dynasty.

『Conqueror of Germany, establish a new dynasty in England』
“Hong Min-jun, who conquered the German Bundesliga and moved to England, has finally succeeded in founding a new dynasty.

The match against Tottenham in the 35th round of the Premier League held at St James’ Park on Thursday the 13th.

Hong Min-jun, who reported the opening goal in the 4th minute of the first half, scored in the 18th, 39th and 11th minutes of the first half and was replaced in the 14th minute of the second half.

With Hong Min-jun’s goal storm at the forefront, Newcastle won 5-0 against Tottenham and were able to confirm the league title at home with three games to go.

With this win, Newcastle achieved the Premier League title for the second year in a row and achieved a treble including FA Cup and League Cup victories.

Hong Min-jun scored 4 goals that day, recording 64 goals and 19 assists in 30 league games, leaving an immortal record in the English Premier League again.

With three games left in the league, Hong Min-joon, who virtually confirmed the top scorer by showing a difference of more than twice as high as second place, opened a new era of 60 goals in the league for the first time in history, including the Golden Shoe for five consecutive years.

Also, if you add 1 assist, you will write a 20-20 record for the first time since Thierry Henry.

Experts are confident that Hong Min-jun, who shows an incredible offensive point pace, will add help in the remaining games, and considering Hong Min-jun’s performance, which is good at scoring, they carefully predicted the possibility of scoring 70 goals in the league.

Newcastle stands tall as England’s new dynasty.
And while interest is gathering to see how far Hong Min-jun’s propaganda will lead, the protagonist of the Newcastle dynasty, Hong Min-jun’s eyes are on the Champions League final.

The first time in Newcastle’s history, Hong Min-jun’s first career challenge to win the Champions League.
With pundits predicting Newcastle’s victory, their opponents in the final are—”
