Chapter 567: Greek team’s preparation.
Greece U17 team.
lounge.
Zeus is sitting in a cryotherapy machine to cool his muscles.
After resisting Lin Nan's balls all night, his arms were already in an overloaded state and needed protection.
At this time, a middle-aged man who had seen this walked into the lounge, looked at Zeus's situation, frowned slightly, and asked, "What's wrong with you? Did you undergo some high-intensity training?"
"I told you to do things within your capabilities, but you still had to use a cryotherapy machine."
The speaker was the head coach of Greece U17.
He was originally preparing to go back to sleep after get off work when he heard a message from the monitoring room saying that Zeus and others went to the lounge to use the cryotherapy machine.
Cryotherapy machine.
It can also be called 'cryotherapy'
Symptoms such as pain and swelling can be relieved and even inflammation can be eliminated under the severe cold. Generally, players who are unwell only need to receive 10 minutes of treatment before they can play. It is said that such a treatment is equivalent to more than 20 ice bucket treatments.
The implementation method of cryotherapy is very simple, which is to place the athlete in an extremely low temperature chamber for 2-3 minutes.
The temperature in the chamber is as low as minus 150 degrees Celsius, so players receiving treatment must wear professional protective equipment so that their fingers and toes will not be frostbitten.
This is essentially a more advanced ice bath treatment, but it’s far more effective.
Cryotherapy can accelerate the healing of injuries, relieve pain and fatigue, accelerate the decomposition of lactic acid, promote the elimination of inflammation, reduce muscle spasms, and release endorphins to accelerate the body's recovery.
However, each start-up costs a lot of money.
Currently, in the entire tennis club, only Zeus is qualified to use it without restrictions.
So when he heard that Zeus was using the cryotherapy machine, he rushed to the lounge immediately, fearing that something might have happened to Zeus.
After all, the friendly match is about to begin.
After seeing Lin Nan's performance.
The Greek team also has a plan to create a god, hoping to shape Zeus into a genius equal to Lin Nan, so that more people in the world will pay attention to the Greek team with a rising posture.
Friendly matches are a great platform.
However, he did not plan to let Zeus face off against Lin Nan, who was playing singles one. Instead, he planned to put him on singles two or three, to avoid a direct confrontation between the two as much as possible.
But Zeus disagreed and insisted on competing against Lin Nan in a singles match.
This is also different from the coaching staff's arrangement.
Now seeing Zeus overtraining again, he was even more angry: "Zeus, your body is the hope of our U17, don't do this..."
"Coach, I promised you I'd play in singles two."
Before he could finish his words, Zeus suddenly interrupted.
"what?"
The head coach was stunned for a moment, then he said with joy: "Have you finally figured it out?"
"wrong."
"What just happened to you!"
He knew Zeus too well. The other party was definitely not someone who gave up easily. He had even prepared a press speech for after Zeus was shut out by Lin Nan.
Now that Zeus suddenly agreed to the one-on-two arrangement, there must be something he doesn't know.
"Head...head coach, captain...played a game with Lin Shen."
"what?"
Hearing Apollo's hesitant words, the head coach's pupils shrank and he showed an unbelievable expression: "You...how did you run into the German team? Was it just now?"
He vaguely remembered.
Several people said two hours ago that they wanted to go out for dinner together.
It happened during just one meal?
The head coach was stunned and immediately asked, "Did anyone else see your game?"
He was not worried about winning or losing, which was meaningless. As the head coach, how could he not know how big the gap between Zeus' strength and Lin Nan's was.
What I am really worried about is whether this game will be seen by other people, especially reporters.
Fortunately, the next answer made him feel relieved.
Orion shook his head and said, "Only us and the four players from the German team."
Hearing this, the head coach nodded.
As long as it doesn't get out, the Greek team's plan to create a god is still going on, and the news of Zeus' defeat must not be spread out.
Although everyone can understand that Zeus lost to Lin Nan, it is still a bad thing.
"What's the score?"
The head coach asked in a deep voice.
Apollo smiled bitterly and said, "We lost three games, one doubles and two singles. Not only did we lose the games, we didn't even score a single goal the whole time, including the captain."
"what!"
The head coach was shocked when he heard this.
You have to know that the four people in front of you are the future hope of the Greek team. How could they lose without even scoring a single goal?
He couldn't believe it for a moment.
At this time, Zeus, who had been silent, said, "The opponents happen to be four professional players from the German team, Berti, Schneider, QP and Lin Nan."
No wonder...
The head coach nodded. With the strength of the four little guys in front of him, they would definitely not be a match for this group of professional players.
Then Zeus began to describe the entire situation of today's game.
The more the head coach listened, the heavier his heart became. He never imagined that the German players would be so strong.
Especially when he heard Zeus say that these four people didn't even play half the time, the head coach seemed to have seen the result of the friendly match.
Zeus said seriously: "Coach, it is impossible to beat the German team, but... maybe we can try to win a game."
The head coach frowned slightly: "Can you only take one game? Your singles two..."
Zeus shook his head and continued, "We don't have much confidence, so we have to focus on doubles two!"
"Double two?"
Zeus nodded heavily. "Through our analysis of their first two games, Berti and Schneider will only play in the doubles one position. Doubles two will be rotated. Perhaps we can find an opportunity to score a big score in doubles one."
"At the same time, singles three is also an opportunity. I suggest you put Senior Taranta in singles three."
"no!"
As soon as Zeus finished speaking, the head coach shook his head to refuse.
Facing everyone's puzzled gazes, the head coach said, "This is what the higher-ups mean. I hope that Lin Nan's match can be played by someone with good ability. If you don't play singles, Taranta must play singles."
"I see."
Zeus nodded.
After a long discussion, the roster was finally decided.
Doubles 10: Hermes Kounellis 10, Vulcan Laerciu .
Doubles 1: Apollos Stephanopoulos, Orion Stephanopoulos.
Singles 3: Papadopoulos Evangelos
Singles 2: Zeus Iliopoulos
Singles: Taranta Hercules
It can be said that except for Hydes, the Greek team has sent out its strongest lineup. Whether they can win depends on their performance on the spot.
Recently.
Preparations for the Sid-German friendly are in full swing.
