Football System: Classic Number 10
Chapter 84: Training Day

Because it has reached the quarter-finals or quarter-finals, the preparation of all teams competing is tighter than the previous stages. Including the Cananga Youth Mining team, they are now training harder than ever before.

If previously they were just fitness training with a little tactical learning, now they are not just physical fitness and tactical exercises only. They really pushed themselves very far. This they do, because they don't want their steps to stop just getting here.

Moreover, their status as defending champions requires them to always display their best performances, the pressure they always carry until they get to this point. It must be very uncomfortable to play while carrying such a heavy burden, but they proved that they are the true defending champions.

"We will still use the 4-2-1-3 formation that we have perfected into a formula. Galih and Bagas will be central defenders and also be the ones who build-up attacks from below. Romeo and Zaki who will be double pivots, Zaki plays Anchor just like the previous matches. Then Axel and Fauzi keep doing your chores on Flank's side!"

"Yes Coach!"

"Then Martin and Rizaldi, you two are the foundation of our attack, especially for Rizaldi who has the role of the orchestra leader of our team game. It all depends on you Rizaldi"

Hearing Coach Satria's words made Rizaldi a little silent for a moment, but he was neither depressed nor afraid. Rizaldi was even excited to hear a challenge. For Rizaldi, this makes him excited and wants to prove to his colleagues and opponents on the field that he is also one of the lions they must pay attention to.

Moreover, the emergence of the figure of Tori Marukawa in Sugar Crossed FC, adding the list of rivals Rizaldi Fatah after Yoga Hilmawan. Moreover, Tori Marukawa style of play is exactly the same as Rizaldi, a midfield player who regulates his colleagues. Therefore, Rizaldi was very excited to compete with the figure of Tori Marukawa.

"I'm ready to do all those tasks Coach!" rizaldi said with a face full of confidence.

Coach Satria Hutama smiled at the spirit of Rizaldi, he then gave instructions to all his students to do the exercises in accordance with what he had prepared before.

Given the enemy they will face, namely Surabaya Force Warlord, of course Coach Satria Hutama does not want to underestimate them. Moreover, Surabaya Force Warlord is a team that managed to win I-Youth as much as 7 times, of course their quality is not kidding.

Surabaya Force Warlord is a youth development team owned by the Surabaya Verde Warlord team that plays in the I-LEAGUE main division. Because the achievements of the first team and their young development team are very good, their games and players are also not less good.

Every year they can create great players in their team and there are some of them who play in the first team and become stars, there are also those who play in other teams but their abilities are also not less great.

The Surabaya Verde Warlord team is also rated great with their negotiation skills, so they can get the players they want very easily. Not to mention their Scout teams spread throughout Indonesia, this makes it easier for them to find superior seeds of Indonesian football even to enter the interior though.

In addition to having talented local talent, the Surabaya Force Warlord team also has foreign players who are no less talented. One of their attackers was a foreign legion, Arthur Cunha.

Arthur Cunha is a young Brazilian player signed by Surabaya Force Warlord. Arthur Cunha previously played for Fluminense's youth team which played in Brazil's Serie A league.

By Arthur Cunha. Surabaya Force Warlord FC has another weapon, which is their midfielder who became one of the best midfielders in the last season. Thanks to this player, the depth of Surabaya Force Warlord FC's midfield was really very well maintained, even they managed to run up to the semifinals and almost beat their enemies at that time.

The name of the player is Bima Satya. The number 6 player from Surabaya Force Warlord, who is predicted to be the best player in Surabaya Force Warlord and is likely to be selected for the selection to enter the national team thanks to his consistent play.

"Arthur Cunha and Bima Satya are indeed their great players, but do not forget the other players as well. Into the Surabaya Force Warlord FC squad is better than us, so do not let you underestimate them" Coach Satria warned them all.

Then Rizaldi asked about the formation to be used by the opposing team. Coach Satria opened his smart-pad and began to show them all about Surabaya Force Warlord FC which, there is also a formation often used by the Surabaya Force Warlord team.

"Most likely they will use a 3-2-3-2 formation with build-up attacks through short passes that directly pierce the heart of our defense, but take it easy if you follow my plan, I think you can handle it all" Coach Satria said of the formation used by the opposing team on the other boys.

Then they all returned to training according to the training menu that had been prepared by Coach Satria's staff team, they did not want to stop at this stage so they would be serious in training today.

After a long day of practice, they returned to the hotel feeling relieved after they cleaned up and ate dinner that had been provided by the hotel before. Just counting the days, before they would leave this place, because without them knowing after this they would face the semifinals and finals.

Cananga Youth Mining players remember the first time they came here, especially when they remembered the incident experienced by Rizaldi on his first day in Jakarta.

Ears buzzing and forgetting to reset the clock on the smartphone with the time part of Jakarta is the misfortune experienced by Rizaldi when he first came here. Even during his first match against Jayapura Black Diamond FC, Rizaldi was not fit because his ears were still buzzing at that time. But even so, Rizaldi can still show his best performance in the match that day.

Because they were training longer than usual, so tonight they were free and there was no activity. So they spend their time playing uno cards at a big table in the lobby.

Martin, Fauzi, Zaki, Romeo, Derry, Axel and Rizaldi also play uno cards at other tables, they do little competition there. But in two rounds, Derry managed to be the winner.

Now go into the third round and still no one wins. But the cards in Rizaldi's hand were two, he read the faces of his friends but so difficult because they always use poker face that makes Rizaldi a little confused.

"I know you definitely don't have this" said Martin and he then threw a red 2.

In the next turn, Rizaldi must issue a red card or number 2 card. Rizaldi looked at the card he was holding and he laughed, Laughing Rizaldi made the others confused as well as anxious.

"Thank you very much for your kindness, Martin!" Rizaldi then put his two cards which are yellow and blue number 2 cards so that Rizaldi can put it and make it a winner.
