Chapter 180 Bruckner and His Children

At the end of the game, Bruckner, who had always been very calm before, was like an ordinary old man, unable to hide his disappointment. His team once had a chance, but they missed it again.

Bruckner had some regrets. After the Belgian equalized the score, they should have launched an offense and used the offense to contain the Belgian's offense, but he hesitated. It was because of hesitation that his team lost Hold on to hope.

With a long sigh, Bruckner was just about to turn around and go to the Belgian coach's bench to congratulate his young colleague Antiiennis, but saw Antiiennis had already walked in front of him.

Bruckner squeezed out a smile: "Very exciting game, congratulations! Coach Antiiennis!"

Antiiennis didn't know what to say, so he could only smile, shook hands with the old man, said "thank you", and left.

Bruckner walked to the sidelines to greet the lost disciples. He has taught the Czech team for some years. In 2002, the Czech national team missed the World Cup finals in Korea and Japan. The Czech Football Association dismissed Kovanec and appointed him Bruckner took over the national team. Under the guidance of the old coach, this team with many excellent players but lacking cohesion quickly became a strong and highly entertaining team, and the Czech team returned to the ranks of European strong teams.

Before becoming the head coach of the national team, Bruckner also served as the head coach of the Czech youth team. When these players under him were still young players, Bruckner carefully observed these players.

The experienced old man has successfully integrated young players and old players into a team in the past few years. He has built the Czech team into a team with high tactical quality and spirituality. I am also deeply loved by players and fans.

The greatest glory of Bruckner's national team was in the European Cup in 2004. In that cup, the performance of the Czech team was amazing, but this pre-match favorite team unfortunately lost in the semi-finals to the host that eventually won the championship. Greek team.

In addition to the impressive results of leading the team, Bruckner also attaches great importance to the harmony and unity within the team, and treats players equally. He once said: "The national team should be a happy family. I have no illegitimate children here."

The core player Nedved talked about his relationship with Bruckner and Bruckner: "He is like my father, and I have to obey him completely."

Bruckner's success is not only good at coordinating interpersonal relationships, but also because he is a realist, a master tactician and a strategist.

He is good at formulating and using different tactics according to different opponents. The 2006 World Cup qualifiers are the best illustration. He scored 35 goals and successfully won the ticket to the final, helping the Czech team enter the World Cup final for the first time.

Although in the World Cup in Germany, the Czech Republic failed to qualify in the final group, people remember Nedved's helpless tears more, but the coach has done everything he can do.

Before the start of this European Cup, Bruckner said in an interview: "I hope we can go further than four years ago. Four years ago we reached the semi-finals, so our goal this year is to kill To get to the final and win the cup, but the primary goal is to make sure we get out of the group."

After returning from the World Cup in Germany, the proud Bohemian has only one goal, to prove himself in the European Cup, and this is also the last international tour of the Czech Republic led by Bruckner. Before the start of the European Cup, Bruckner had just rejected a two-year contract from the Czech Football Association.

But when they came to Austria and Switzerland, they found that the Czech team was facing the danger of being eliminated from the group. Difficult situation, continue to rely on champion-level veterans or boldly use newcomers?

In the end, the old man chose to be responsible for the tomorrow of Czech football. At the same time, Bruckner also made the team complete the change of style. The team that advocated offense in the past has become practical now.

The pale hair and the hoarse voice when shouting, this is the first impression of Bruckner. Although he is usually extremely strict, he is still respected by the players. They have expressed more than once that they dare not imagine without Bruckner What will happen to the Nathan team.

In the big family of the Czech team, Bruckner is a strict coach on the field, and he is regarded as a father by the players off the field. But after Brückner leaves office, which head coach can win such heartfelt love from the Czech players?

At 69, Bruckner is the oldest coach at this European Championship, and even when he is too old to move, he is still a fighter.

The 69-year-old white hair has a story in every strand. That white hair made him look like a master of Taoism, but now he looks full of depression. Maybe he also knows that after losing this game, His fate with the Czech team is likely to end here.

Jan Kohler walked to the sidelines, he didn't even dare to look into Bruckner's eyes, his face was full of guilt, Jan Kohler respected the old man 100%, and even called the old man "Daddy" in private ".

"Dad! I'm sorry!"

Bruckner's voice was a little hoarse, and he patted Jan Kohler's arm: "No! You've done a good job, and I'm proud of you!"

When Jan Kohler heard this, his nose couldn't help but feel sour. He scored a goal, but failed to bring the team victory, which made him very guilty.

After Jan Koller is Rosicky. This is a player Bruckner relies on very much. Rosicky has done well enough in this game. Although he did not score, he was the starting point for the quick counterattack after that steal. .

"Coach! Sorry!"

With the same words as Jan Koller, Bruckner smiled and gave him a hug: "Don't worry, we still have a chance, and there is one more game, we will have a good result!"

In this case, perhaps Bruckner himself does not believe it. Although the outside world generally believes that the strength of the Czech team is higher than that of Turkey, in fact, Turkey's strong performance in the first two games of this cup has proved that they have The strength to change fate against the sky.

However, Bruckner must give his players confidence to make this fate last longer.

At the moment, Bruckner looks like a father. Every player in the Czech team is his son. All he has to do is to let the children look up and move on.
