Chapter 35: The Evaluation Meeting


The atmosphere of the coordination meeting room of the Cananga FC Mining team looks so somber, added by the dim lighting with heavy rain out there cold. Just like the situation in this room that was no less cold, in front of them was a whiteboard that read "Moon End Evaluation Meeting!" it was written like a threat letter.


Inside the meeting room were several important figures who filled the central role in the Cananga Mining managerial team. There is Coach Giovanni Almeida who is still loyal with a cold face as cold as snow in December who is the head coach of Cananga Mining, he is also the one who trains the first team from Cananga Mining.


In addition to him, there is also the figure of Cananga Youth-A Development coach, Satria Hutama. He is also one of the same people as Coach Giovanni Almeida, aka the coach who is cold-blooded and iron-handed. Formerly he was Coach Giovanni's right-hand man in the first team but after the Youth team began to be reckoned as well he was the one who became the captain in the Youth-A team.


Coach Satria Hutama's appearance does look a little eccentric. He likes to dress up like a metal music connoisseur, with all-black t-shirts and fart jeans that are stuck in the legs. His hair was also long, like Bon Jovi in the mid-90s. Her foster children sometimes call her Coach Bon Jovi.


From where he gets the inspiration sometimes makes the foster children a little wonder and wonder, the inspiration was obtained from the figure of Coach Giovanni Almeida.


Coach Giovanni who came from Italy from the beginning came indeed has a style that is so different from the people in Indonesia. His long hair is taken care of like Casanova that makes Coach Giovanni is indeed a handsome man, especially coupled with fine feathers around his chin to make Coach Giovanni look more masculine. But his expression which may be only one arrangement sometimes makes others so horrified to look into his eyes, but for the women the expression of Coach Giovanni who seemed mysterious and cold it even more makes them fall in love.


Seeing the cool style of Coach Giovanni, 33-year-old Coach Satria Hutama was amazed and wanted to follow in his footsteps. Moreover, Coach Satria Hutama who is the number one fan Bon Jovi was immediately reminded of the charm of the person he admired the most, then he wore his hair for 2 years and the wait finally paid off completely!


As for coaching the Youth-B team, there is Coach Dodi Surian who is the most senior among the two coaches. Coach Dodi Surian has even trained young players Cananga Mining since a long time, he is very obsessed with the figure of one of the great generals in the three kingdoms, he said, Cao Cao was very fond of the strategies used by Cao Cao in the war and Coach Dodi Surian also tried it in the formation of his football strategy.


Sometimes he also likes to quote words that are often spoken by Cao Cao when encouraging his foster children, for example like this word. "What's at the top is bound to decline. He who shows his hand will surely be defeated. He who can win in battle by taking advantage of the doubts of his enemy is invincible" this is what he often said when giving words of encouragement to his foster children.


"Have stopped cosplay Cao Cao you're Coach Dodi, we'd all like to hear how the team B is progressing" the meeting moderator began to condition the meeting a little bit to run according to the procedure properly.


Coach Dodi Surian stood up, he took some papers containing the data of his foster children in Team B, and he began to read them one by one.


"In team B, we all played pretty well with the forward strategy going on and on and on the Cao Cao style that I applied to the boys. The children also easily understand this strategy and they managed to sweep 15 wins until this meeting was held" Coach Dodi Surian said.


The team's physical coach, team therapist, and fitness coach immediately nodded their heads after hearing that. Of course it's a good thing even very good, team B managed to sweep 15 wins without losing or a draw at all. They also conceded a little, from the 15 matches they have lived, the B-team has only conceded 5 times.


"Hemmm the B-team defense is pretty solid as well apparently, but according to my observation it seems there are still many things that need to be improved again"


"You're absolutely right Coach Giovanni, the B-team does still have a lot of obstacles. Our victory is also not separated from the role of one player who I always rely on in the team. I tried to play him off the bench and it was very noticeable how important the player was in the team"


Coach Giovanni's lips suddenly smiled slightly, his eyes looking like they were looking away from them all. He knew, he knew who this Coach Dodi Surian was talking about. And it was a monster figure that was already well prepared by Coach Giovanni, but he did not expect that the monster figure would develop much more rapidly than he had previously expected.


'Who is the player who can make Coach Giovanni smile like that? The last time I remember him smiling like that was when he saw the ability of Barton' Coach Satria Hutama so wonder for yourself what happened to the Coach figure that he respected the most.


Coach Satria Hutama asked Coach Giovanni directly. "Coach, who's this player you're talking about? He seems to be a very special player"


With an unchanging face, Coach Giovanni told him. "He's a player who's going to be on your team any minute, he's also a player who's going to be the answer to your foster child's puzzle game" Coach Giovanni gave some papers containing data from the player they were talking about to Coach Satria Hutama.


Coach Satria received the paper, he read it slowly and was a little surprised by what he saw. What a terrible player! Maybe that's what he thought when he first looked at the data.


"Isn't this the player we received with a very thin value with a goal-hungry striker named Yoga Hilmawan? Is this really him?" Coach Satria was a little surprised by the data and she couldn't believe it just like that.


The atmosphere of the meeting so a little confusing, because of that the other coaching staff who took a look at the data that made Coach Satria a little angry. And, they were all as surprised as Coach Satria, even some of them were holding their heads in shock.


"What's that crazy statistic? 17 Assists in 15 games? 5 goals and everything from outside the box? More than 100 key operands and always involved in every attack? What the fuck!" Coach Satria was still in disbelief, she stared at Coach Giovanni hoping he was just joking at her. But the weather-cold gaze in the Himalayas that radiates from Coach Giovanni's eyes has certainly explained the answer to Coach Satria.


"I heard that Team-A is in a bit of trouble huh. Already 4 times losing streak and the atmosphere in the locker room gray like a death march. I think with the presence of the figure of Ward Prowse this A-team can return to the track initially"


"So you mean, this Rizaldi Fatah will be promoted to team A so yes Coach Giovanni?" Coach Dodi Surian slightly reassured him if he had not misheard, and he again fell silent at the unchanging expression of Coach Giovanni.


Coach Giovanni returns to voice to convince Coach Dodi Surian. "Coach Dodi, I understand how important Ward Prowse is to your team. But you also have to be aware and understand about his future and I think you know best about it"


Behind Coach Dodi Surian's eyes, there was a hint of anxiety. He was confused whether he should release one of his golden children to Team-A when he already knew for himself the answer should be how. With a heavy heart but he said for the sake of the young man named Rizaldi Fatah, he finally allowed Rizaldi Fatah promotion to the A-team.


"I appreciate your decision Coach Dodi. And looking at your records, not only is Ward Prowse improving. I heard there were some players who improved because of the figure of Ward Prowse, such as B-team captain Ardi and also B-team striker Risadi who began to show his best ability"


"That's right Coach Giovanni, they were both completely affected with Rizaldi. Not just the two of them, the whole team was affected as well and I'm sure they would have been happy to hear Rizaldi Fatah would have made it to the A-team"


Coach Giovanni started to hold his face, he was thinking about some things with everything he knew today. Coach Giovanni then asked Coach Dodi Surian to allow him to see the B-team match on Sunday.


Coach Giovanni wants to see firsthand how deep the B-team squad Coach Dodi Surian is and he's a little curious how the figure he often refers to as Ward Prowse, affects the players around him.
