Chapter 5 - Danone Cup Istanbul Quarter Finals
"Dude, didn"t Fenerbahce really choose you for the team?"
It was Helder"s friend from the school team, Hakan, who said this."Now is not the time to think about it, we are about to hit the field and the match will begin soon. Focus on the match. "With years of experience, Helder wanted to prevent his friend"s concentration from deteriorating.The coach gathered the team."Who are we?"The whole team shouted."Losers!"The coach said again."Who are we?""Losers!"The coach and the team were repeating this 3 times before each match."Then one more time," said the coach."Who are we?""Losers!"Coach took a deep breath and shouted."So what are we going to do today?"They shouted like crazy to the whole team."We will win!"The coach and team are one soul.Therefore, they should not have lost their souls.The coach has been working on this match for days. He had analyzed the opponent well.The opposing team was generally waiting in defense and with the balls it grabbed, they were counterattacking very quickly.There was a way to stop that too.Leaving the ball to the opponent.If you drop the ball to the opponent and make him pass, they would be in an unfamiliar pattern.Of course, this thought was a gamble.They would see what they would win or lose at gambling when the match was over."Helder, it"s your turn to speak." said the coach.The captain of the team was Helder.The whole team became a circle and Helder started talking."First of all, calm down."But there was someone who was not calm and trembled like crazy.He was the team"s striker Burak."I don"t think Burak can score a goal." Helder said.Burak suddenly looked at Helder."You know I"ve scored goals in every match so far, captain?""I know but you won"t be able to score today. Do you have a bet? "If Burak made a bet, he would do everything he could to win."All right, what"s the claim on?"If you score goals today, Hakan will treat you to a Coke at school. But if you don"t score goals, you"ll treat us all with coke. Deal?"Yes, deal."Burak was overly ambitious.Hakan whispered into Helder"s ear."Again, you brought Burak to the gas by using me."Helder smiled."You know, when this boy gets on gas, nobody can stop him.""You really know your job, captain. You are afraid. " Hakan said."Has everyone calmed down now?""Yes, captain!""Does everyone remember our tactics?""Yes, captain!""Then let"s finish their job.""Yes, captain!"When it comes to motivation, Helder was indeed a genius.He had had tough matches many times in his previous life.Fate was slowly weaving its nets ...The team of 8 people went to the field.U-12 matches were played 8 to 8, and each team had 4 substitutes.In other words, there could be a maximum of 12 players in a team.Each team had 3 substitutions.Also, the fields were divided in half and the matches was playing this way.Everything was ready now.And the referee blew the whistle of the match ...Related chapters

Helder"s team started the match.But what is that?Burak threw the ball to the touchline in the right corner of the opponent"s court, right after the match started.The opposing team was surprised.Burak did what the coach wanted.They wanted to force the opponent into error by making shock presses and quickly win the ball and score a goal. This was their strategy in the first minutes of the match.Helder"s team would normally play the 3-3-1 tactic.Goalkeeper: HelderDefenders: Mert, Yusuf, KaanMidfielders: Hakan, Eray, AlpForward: BurakThis was their classic tactic.But this game"s special coach was trying the 2-2-3 tactic for the start of the match. Although this allowed them to multiply in the future, they could leave a gap behind.That is why Eray had switched to the left forward and Alp to the right at the beginning of the match.Defender Kaan would play as a defensive midfield

""Yes, coach."All the footballers on the team had great faith in winning the match.He was drinking little water in Helder.If he drank too much water, his body would not be able to move quickly and use his reflexes well in the incoming balls.He was using the experiences of his previous life.Defender Mert approached Helder.He gave the towel in his hand to Helder."Don"t worry, captain, this is my spare towel, I"ve never used it before.""Thank you, buddy."Unfortunately, he did not have his towel, as his family"s financial situation was bad.His teammates also doing everything they could to help him.Helder was also lucky to have such teammates.It is always difficult to find a teamma

The Day After the Quarter Finals ...Helder and his teammates were waiting for the coach, sitting on the field.They would not practice the day after the match.They would analyze in detail their next competitors and study them.He came towards the field with slow steps on the coach."Is everybody ready?""Yes, coach."So we"re starting to analyze our opponent in the semifinals.The coach started talking."As you know, our opponent in the semi-finals is Istanbul"s well-established Mustafa Çamcı Secondary School. This school was the only champion of Istanbul in the last 7 years. Nobody has stopped them until now. So do you think we can achieve this?

"Both of our opponent"s u-12 national team players are strikers. So Helder, you know you"re going to have a lot of work, right? ""Yes, coach, I will not let them score. I will do my best."The strikers of the opposing team were nationally famous players.Someone was playing in Fenerbahçe"s u-12 team. His name was Emre.The other was playing in Galatasaray"s u-12 team. His name was Arda.The future for both of these children was seen as bright.But most people did not know that Turkish youth with a bright future could not reach the expected level due to inadequate coaches and training styles."We can"t just leave them to Helder." said defender Yusuf.He was confident."If we"re going to leave everything to Helder, why are we here?"This sentence was spoken by other defenders Mert, who was sitting next to Yusuf.They were aware that there was too much burden

Half time…"So far, everything is going as planned, we did not score in the first half. Now the real match will begin. " Helder said."Yes, Captain."The coach was telling the players what to do in the second half.Yes, they were good defenders, but if they didn"t score, they wouldn"t have a chance to win the match.Maybe the match could go on penalties, or even the coach could count on him as Helder was on the team.However, the coach did not want the match to go to penalties.Because none of the matches they played was up to penalties.And so what the players would do on penalties could be a huge problem."We haven"t conceded goals so far, but now we should consider scoring." said the coach."Coach you"re right, but how do we do this? Our opponent puts a lot of pressure on us… "said defender Yusuf."We will change our tactics and give them an unexp
