Football System: Classic Number 10
Chapter 47: Preparation Against Buceros FC

The development of Cananga Youth is now starting to prepare for their last game, a game that will determine their fate whether they can enter the knockout phase or their steps are stopped here.

In the previous four games, they managed to sweep everything clean with a landslide victory. They managed to get 12 points overall and only this last game will be the determinant of their fate.

Cananga is still in 3rd place with 32 points, behind Buceros who has 35 points. If they manage to win against Buceros on Sunday, their points will be the same but the Cananga Mine is the underdog with more goals. Only 3 goals!

There was an anomaly they felt from Buceros, they felt Buceros was not like Buceros in the last season. Buceros dominated last season, but now it feels like Buceros has lost his horns and is hurt so badly.

They have only collected 35 points from half this season, of course that is not a good thing. Nothing has changed from Buceros, everything has remained as it was last season. Starting from the coaching staff, the players and everything else remains the same as last season. But they look even more miserable this season.

Coach Satria also thought about it, late at night like this he tried to find out what really happened to the rhinos. The Iron Rhino is the title of the club Buceros.

Coach Satria investigated further, he saw some game statistics from Buceros in previous matches, at first he did not realize it but after thinking about it several times by him, he said, seen by Coach Satria similar patterns in some Buceros matches.

"That son of a bitch!" Coach Satria suddenly hit his desk hard enough to make a loud enough noise, he was so upset after learning what Buceros players were doing.

"They have no intention of playing football. They only wanted to destroy the career of their opponents while underestimating them all, what the heck!" Still upset with what he found, Coach Satria pulls his favorite cigarette out of his pocket and starts to enjoy every puff of it.

It was the habits of Coach Satria that he had difficulty overcoming or improving. When he felt upset or his head was a lot of gray things, he always smoked to remove a little burden of the problem, he said.

"I'll teach the rhinos a lesson! Look at it later" Coach Satria said, then he started thinking about tactics and strategies he could use against Buceros FC on Sunday.

From the outside, the office still looks quite bright. Coach Giovanni was curious about who was in the office until late at night like this, he tried to go inside and see if there was someone there.

Coach Giovanni opened the door, his eyes fixed on Coach Satria who was still struggling with pen and paper. Coach Satria's face looked so serious it couldn't be bothered until she stopped meditating.

But Coach Giovanni is not one to have patience for it. He went straight to Coach Satria's desk. "What do you think of late at night like this?" said she.

Coach Satria looked beside her, she saw Coach Giovanni's face that looked like Casanova's. A little lazy, he replied. "There is no coach, I just do something that is not important" he said.

Of course the answer from Coach Satria made Coach Giovanni wonder, he was a little confused by what happened and what Coach Satria was thinking. But Coach Giovanni is not the one who always asks, he finds out for himself what makes Coach Satria such a hapless.

Coach Giovanni observed what Coach Satria was doing. On his desk there is a pen and paper containing scribbles of strategy and tactics, then on his desk there is also a laptop owned by Coach Satria that contains statistics of players and clubs. From everything he saw, Coach Giovanni already knew what Coach Satria was really thinking.

Coach Giovanni nodded slowly. "It seems so, then what makes you think is quite heavy like this. All I know is that you're not a person who likes to think too hard"

"I can't find a solution for Sunday's game, whatever I think is anticipated by the opposing coach" Coach Satria explained the situation he had with Coach Giovanni.

Coach Giovanni was surprised that he was confused as to who could do the same thing as Coach Satria had explained. "Who's your enemy next week?"

"Buceros, Coach" Coach Satria replied briefly.

"Then, what's the problem?"

Coach Satria also showed Buceros team stats to Coach Giovanni. Coach Giovanni looked at all the statistics very closely, it was not until one minute that he discovered the discrepancy in the statistics and his face changed, just like Coach Satria had experienced at the time he checked those stats.

"It seems like they really think we're just a loaf of bread" Coach Giovanni is currently showing an upset face, which makes the atmosphere in the rather dark room even more gloomy.

"That's what makes me dizzy. I'm sure that on Sunday they will play a serious look at their current pattern"

"You're right Coach!" Coach Giovanni was silent for a moment, he also thought of a little tactic to help the Youth team get into the knockout phase and beat Buceros FC.

Then Coach Giovanni is like getting a great inspiration, he gets a pretty good strategy and he thinks he can work on the game. Before that he asked how the development of the player figure would be a key factor in the success of this tactic.

"Ward Prowse?" Coach Satria was confused, he was sure there was no Ward Prowse in his squad. But he just remembered that Ward Prowse is the Coach Giovanni name for Rizaldi Fatah. "ah! Rizaldi Fatah's. In the last four games, I was quite satisfied with what he did. He managed to record 3 goals and 6 assists since his debut. The way he plays in midfield is pretty good, but I play him more often from the bench" Coach Satria said.

"Play him as a starter in Sunday's game. Play him in Classic Number 10 position!" coach Giovanni said with confidence.

Contrary to Coach Giovanni who looks very confident, Coach Satria is not sure about Coach Giovanni's choice. But Coach Satria is a coach who really admires Coach Giovanni's tactics and thinking, so he wants to directly apply the cuisine of Coach Giovanni earlier

But he also remembers reality. The style of play that Coach Giovanni intended was an old-fashioned style of play, very different from the modern style of football that always relies on speed and endurance. Coach Satria was a little worried about that choice.

Coach Giovanni understood what Coach Satria was worried about, he patted Coach Satria on the shoulder several times to calm himself down. "Just calm down Coach, you'll be surprised to see the boy's ability, the boy I call Ward Prowse.

Coach Satria was still confused, yet he had no other choice but to try the advice of Coach Giovanni. Coach Satria is now starting to write and draw tactics that he will use and to prepare for the practice tomorrow morning, he was already engrossed in his own world and so Coach Giovanni left him to go home soon.
