Football System: Classic Number 10
Chapter 81: The Strange Competition

With an easy 5-0 win over the Jaksel Yankees and played very well by providing two goals and one assist for the Cananga Youth Development win over the Jaksel Yankees. Rizaldi Fatah was immediately named man of the match in today's match, he was awarded by the I-Youth committee and interviewed by several media related to his performance today.

With so many cameras highlighting him, Rizaldi is uncomfortable. He had dragged Martin to replace him because Rizaldi considered Martin more worthy of standing here as in the match against Jayapura Black Diamond. However, of course Martin could not do that and let Rizaldi suffer on his own, he even had the pleasure of seeing the troubled Rizaldi.

The interview will always be remembered Rizaldi as a nightmare, because during the interview Rizaldi could not answer very well and he looked stiff like a robot from the 22nd century.

Even the day after the incident, what was experienced by Rizaldi yesterday was still the subject of ridicule from his other colleagues. This made Rizaldi even more depressed, even he had the intention to no longer want to be a man of the match. But Coach Satria Hutama immediately gave him an advice, as a coach in charge of his students, Coach Satria Hutama did not want to see the decline of one of his students.

Coach Satria said. "All great players must have experienced stiffness in the first interview. Don't let these whispers of them make you feel bad, keep improving your game and rest assured that one day you can become a great player like any other footballer"

"Ready coach!" rizaldi replied with little hesitation, but he was already determined to become a great player one day, like his idol Jordan Ward Prowse.

After breakfast and a bit of relaxation, the Cananga Youth Mining retainers went to the gym to do fitness exercises. As usual, they do weight lifting exercises.

Because seeing the shocking thing yesterday, finally the Cananga Youth Mining retainer immediately made a competition in training this time. His competition was a weight lifting competition, so who was more and heavier in lifting weights this time then the winner could command the loser in 24 hours.

All Cananga Youth Mining players participated in the competition, even Rizaldi Fatah who actually did not want to compete was forced by others and he finally joined.

The first participant to lift the weight was Fauzi, just like yesterday Fauzi really made other players become head bobbles with his strength and only one participant has broken a record that will be difficult for other participants to pass. Fauzi managed to lift a weight of 65kg as much as 30 reps.

Seeing that, Martin who became the second participant tried to lift a load of 70kg. Unfortunately, he was only able to lift as much as 17 reps.

Derry who next participants play smart, he prefers a load of 65kg only and lifting not too much and also not too little. Derry managed to lift a load of 65kg as much as 20 reps.

Then there are Zaki, Axel, Galih and Bagas. They also lifted 65kg but their record was enough to beat Martin's record of trying to lift 70kg.

Then it was Rizaldi's turn. Rizaldi, who was annoyed because he was made fun of by all of them about his interview yesterday after the match against Jaksel Yankees, finally he wanted to avenge them all. Rizaldi lifted a weight of 80kg! That burden alone had shocked all of them, not to mention that he had already lifted his burden beyond Fauzi's previous record.

At the count of a hundred, Coach Satria came to them and stopped their ridiculous competition. "You can compete, but I just told you to exercise to maintain fitness, not exercise that hurts all of you" Coach Satria Hutama said.

Coach Satria also immediately covered his face with a notebook that he always held, he no longer knew what to react to his foster children.

While Rizaldi continued to lift weights, even his count was over a hundred. Before finally he was stopped by Coach Satria Hutama who was already upset with what was done by Martin and the others earlier. That way today's morning practice ends quickly, it ended because of the carelessness of Martin and the others who wanted to beat Rizaldi's record yesterday but their muscles that were still not ready instead made them in pain and difficulty lifting their arms at this time.

"Lifting weights is not about who is the strongest and who is the weakest, it is about whether or not your muscles are ready to lift the weights you want to lift. No one who has never lifted a 10kg load wants to lift a 70kg load!" Coach Satria was really angry with what they were doing this time.

While rubbing their arms with a pain-relieving cream, they all regretted doing this today. They started to think about the impact that would have had they continued to do this hilarious competition on the match tomorrow.

"But Coach, the skinny-looking Rizaldi can lift 70 not 80kg even. Because of him we became a little motivated coach" Martin tried to defend himself.

Coach Satria shook her head and took her breath. "I understand you're motivated, but you have to know first why this Rizaldi can lift such a weight" then coach Satria asked Rizaldi about it.

Rizaldi replied casually. "Before I entered the Cananga Mining Academy, I was just an ordinary student. I used to work as a grocery store keeper and I often lifted pretty heavy store items"

From the story of Rizaldi earlier, they all came to understand where the terrible power of Rizaldi Fatah came from. Yes, actually not entirely true and not completely wrong also the story told by Rizaldi to his friends. He did work in the grocery store owned by his father Melani and therefore he became accustomed to lifting heavy weights but not as heavy as he can lift now, because now he is helped by the training of the system that makes him stronger. Surely, he could not tell all of them this.

"You heard, right?" coach Satria Hutama said to others. "Rizaldi worked hard for his life, he's a little different from all of you who still ask your parents for money. I'm not saying it's a bad thing for you guys, but at least Rizaldi already feels how hard and meaningful life is. Is coach Rizaldi right?"

"Yes, coach! Coach was so right, I'm grateful to have experienced this in my school days so I'm not too surprised that I've become a part of society completely someday"

Coach Satria Hutama smiled to see the figure of Rizaldi Fatah that he saw so strong and sturdy, his body was really sculpted by the rigors of the life he had lived all this time. Coach Satria Hutama knows about the life of Rizaldi Fatah from Coach Giovanni Almeida, so he is a little concerned with the figure of Rizaldi who has fought hard to get to this point.

Then coach Satria Hutama said. "I don't mean to patronize all of you because you have your own choices in life, but if I can I hope you can make this hard work of Rizaldi Fatah your motivation. Because not only in Cananga Youth Mining you have to fight hard and get a place in the first team, but you also have to be able to work hard wherever it is. Want it in a club, at school, in the community or in your own home. Can you do that?"

"Can Coach!" they answered with great confidence, their faces like those of the soldiers who were preparing to storm the enemy army.

Coach Satria smiled, then he told them to get ready to go to the field because they still have some light training today.
