Episode 220 Champion.

“What is your ultimate goal, director?”

The black-haired director paused when asked a question by the production team.

It is an achievement that other directors would find difficult to achieve even if they devoted their entire lives to it.

Wasn’t he a manager who had already achieved the treble?

Naturally, you’re curious about the next step.

“well.”

Kim said that and stroked her chin for a moment.

After a while his lips opened.

“Why do people watch soccer?”

“Well….”

The PD was momentarily speechless.

Everyone’s reasons will be different.

To those who aren’t interested, soccer is just a game of ball.

‘If that’s the reason why I watch soccer…’

For some, it may be a sport that holds childhood memories.

For some, it provides something to talk about while having a drink with friends.

This is because someone can empathize with the team and share in their joys and sorrows.

‘at last….’

Isn’t it because it provides fun and an escape from the stifling reality?

The director smiled faintly after hearing the PD’s answer.

“My goal is the same.”

“yes?”

“I will show the audience an entertaining game so that they won’t have to think about anything else for the 90 minutes they watch the game. That’s all.”

PD stares blankly at Kim at the unexpected answer.

‘This person is different… .’

It was only then that I realized why Kim had been able to achieve such great things.

They say that those who work hard can’t beat those who enjoy it.

Aside from the skills required for a director, this is probably possible because I enjoy the work itself.

“There must be a task that needs to be completed first.”

“?”

“There won’t be any fans who will enjoy watching a losing game.”

After finishing the interview, the coach headed straight to the locker room where the players were.

The next day.

Barnett won only the second treble in football history.

[Barnet documentary aired in seasons 17-18. Who’s Barnet]

* * *

Ahead of the Champions League final against Manchester City.

Hyunwoo sat in front of the tactics board and thought for a long time.

‘If we hope for luck in this match too… it won’t work.’

Now that Gundogan’s one-volante has failed.

Guardiola must have realized quite a bit.

Of course, it is true that Barnett has the upper hand in recent records.

But given the importance of this match, there was a need for caution.

“Except for Raphael Leao….”

There is no doubt about Leao’s talent for dribbling, but the opposing fullback is Kyle Walker, one of England’s best defenders.

It won’t be easy for Leang, who still lacks experience, to break through Walker.

‘It would be better to put in Jeju, which has good defensive capabilities…’

Hyunwoo is gradually filling out the list of players.

A smile spread across his face as he prepared for a showdown with Guardiola, the best manager of all time.

* * *

[The Champions League of Star Wars. The stage is now approaching its final match.]

[The teams that are running at the highest level in England? The matchup between Manchester City and Barnet has been decided.]

[These two teams recently faced each other in the FA Cup.]

[That’s right. That match too. Barnett has the upper hand in recent records, but anything can happen in a single match.]

[What kind of tactics have the two managers prepared? Let’s check out the starting lineups for both teams.]

―Manchester City―

Phil Foden-Aguero-Mahrez

De Jong – Fernandinho – Bernardo Silva

Zinchenko-Laporte-Stones-Kyle Walker

Ederson

-Barnet-

Jejus-Body-Sala

Kante-Rodri-De Bruyne

Robertson-Rüdiger-Van Dijk-Militan

Alison

[Manchester City took out the classic 4-3-3 tactic.]

[Barnet’s starting lineup stands out, right? Vardy and Kante are in the starting lineup.]

Guardiola, who confirmed Barnett’s starting line-up, washed his face dry.

‘It’s been read completely.’

Pep attributed the last defeat to the failure to control the midfield.

That’s why Fernandinho and De Jong were brought in instead of Gundogan, and the midfield battle was strengthened.

Likewise, Barnett chose to take on the challenge head-on by bringing in Vardy and Kante.

‘If this is the case, the individual abilities of each player will inevitably become important…’

Guardiola reviewed the players’ faces.

Even veteran members Aguero and Fernandinho looked visibly anxious.

Manchester City players, who are playing in their first Champions League final, cannot help but be nervous.

‘Not good… .’

Guardiola, trying hard to suppress his rising anxiety, applauded.

“Everyone, focus!”

“When this match is over, everyone will know who the true champion is.”

Is it because of Guardiola’s fighting voice?

The players’ faces became very serious.

“I am sure that it is us. The championship is our destiny, and this is the place to prove it.”

“Go and show me who the new era’s protagonist is!”

“Let’s go!”

Manchester City players encourage each other, hiding their nervous expressions.

On the other hand, the mood in the opposing camp was different.

“Is anyone nervous?”

The players look at each other’s faces in response to Hyunwoo’s question.

“If you’re nervous, tell me. I’ll change it for you right now.”

The players chuckled as they realized that it was meant to ease the tension.

All of these players, with the exception of Militao and Rodri, were at the peak of their careers with Barnet.

Because they were veterans who had been to the Champions League final four times.

“That doesn’t mean you can let your guard down. But you are players who have proven yourselves many times over.”

“Come and show them what the Champions League is like. Show them what kind of team Barnet is.”

“The moment the game ends, the team that holds the Big Ears shows that it is always the same.”

As Hyunwoo reached out, the players started to gather one by one.

“3, 2, 1.”

“We Are Barnet!”

The faces of the Barnett players leaving the locker room were radiant with confidence.

* * *

Guardiola’s tactics. The key to positional play is space.

When in possession of the ball, moving to a better position through a pass.

In response to this, the card that Hyunwoo pulled out was counter-pressure.

[Barnet persistently interferes with Manchester City’s third-string players.]

[We are applying strong pressure through the 1 ON 1 format of interpersonal marking, and this is showing results.]

Barnet players who are preventing possession of the ball, which is key to positional play.

Even if the Manchester City players had excellent decompressing abilities, it wasn’t easy to keep the ball against beagles like Jesus, Vardy, Salah, Rodri, and Kante.

Hasty passes are inevitable, and the tempo of the game naturally increases.

Guardiola stared at the field with an anxious face.

‘Is this why you hired Jamie Vardy?’

There is no doubt about Holland’s finishing ability, but in fast-paced games he often loses his presence.

That’s why Barnett used his body to his advantage while maintaining mobility.

‘They’ll probably keep pressuring us throughout the first half.’

There is no need to conserve stamina since the season is already over.

Moreover, unlike Manchester City, which did not have enough room in its roster, Barnett adjusted its condition through rotation, so the players’ movements were clearly different.

‘Not good… .’

Man City are a team that is basically used to having possession of the ball.

This kind of game with so many variables was not what we wanted.

Moreover, because there was a difference in experience, all conditions were smiling on Barnett.

The problem was that there really was no alternative.

Crouching defensively was against Manchester City’s style.

‘In the end, it comes down to hoping that the opposing players get tired or that the Manchester City players will have to play their best…’

Both issues are out of the director’s hands.

This is the first time I’ve felt so helpless as a director.

[Usually, careful plays are shown in the final stage. Today’s match was very fast-paced.]

[Barnet continues to disrupt Manchester City’s build-up.]

[But it’s not like Man City doesn’t have a chance. Barnet’s defensive line is high, right? If they just dig into the space behind them, they have a good chance.]

As soon as the commentary ends, Yong kicks the long ball long.

The ball found its way to Phil Foden, who was making a breakaway on the flank.

[Not offside. It’s a chance.]

[He’s a player with both dribbling and finishing skills?]

Knock knock knock

Phil Foden challenges Militao with a dribble.

However, since Militão’s man-to-man defense was better than expected, he made a back pass out of habit.

[Huh!?]

Kante approaches from behind the dragon to receive the ball.

While Kante was delaying the game, De Bruyne, who had been on the defensive team, managed to steal the ball.

[This is too easy a pass.]

[The Barnett players kept marking him closely. Foden was too complacent.]

“Quick attack.”

Barnet FC immediately go on the counterattack.

[Man City players need to focus. Their bodies were leaning forward?]

[De Bruyne drives the ball.]

The moment when the players’ eyes were focused on De Bruyne.

Hyunwoo’s eyes were looking at someone else.

This season.

Holland attracted people’s attention by showing an incredible scoring pace.

However, Hyunwoo thought that Body’s finishing ability was not lacking in any way.

‘That’s because he has been given many roles. He’s not a player who would miss a chance.’

Last season, with Salah and De Bruyne out due to injuries.

Vardy was the top scorer in the PL with 23 goals, playing as Barnet’s key striker.

This is the same for this season, when he is playing in rotation. He showed his continued skills by scoring 14 goals.

De Bruyne, who had the same thoughts as Hyunwoo, stabbed a low cross from the half space.

The body, which had changed direction momentarily, approached the ball.

[De Bruyne stabs him.]

[Jamie Vardy!]

Chorus!

As Body’s nonstop shot split the goal net, the players all ran towards Body.

[Jamieee~ Body! I won’t miss a single opportunity.]

[Coach Kim Hyun-woo’s mercenary tactics paid off. Jamie Vardy proved why he was selected as a starter by scoring.]

[Is it because they’re nervous? The Manchester City players are making mistakes that we didn’t notice before. We need to focus.]

“It’s okay! It’s only the first 20 minutes. Just follow along.”

Coach Guardiola encouraging his players.

But unfortunately, no more scores were scored.

He brings high-intensity feedback as soon as the first half ends.

“If the opposing player is on you, keep moving! Create a passing route. Mahrez, Foden! You guys need to come down a little bit and receive the ball too.”

Did those efforts pay off?

Manchester City players also showed their fighting spirit once again.

But when the second half started and I went out on the field.

Guardiola watched Barnet’s players set up in a two-line defence.

[Barnet… has changed tactics once again.]

[We also need to recover the stamina we lost in the first half. Barnett is currently ahead in the score.]

“Close the gap a little more.”

Hyunwoo adjusting the players’ positions.

Didn’t Real Madrid, led by Ancelotti, show that?

That defensive football can be quite effective against Manchester City.

On the other hand, Guardiola, who was watching Barnett in a completely different form than in the first half, had no choice but to let out his rising words.

“It’s like playing soccer X.”

* * *

Beep— Beep— Beep—

[Score 2:0. The match ends with a win for Barnett.]

[Man City players did well enough, but you could see that they were crushed by the pressure of the final.]

Second half.

Manchester City attempted to turn the game around by consistently attacking the half-space.

However, they collapsed after Salah’s counterattack following Alisson’s goal kick.

[Ah. Aguero wiping away tears of regret.]

[As I am slowly entering the twilight of my career, I cannot help but feel regret.]

[Barnet players successfully lift the Big Ears again, achieving a record-breaking third treble.]

[Who can deny that Barnett is the best club at the moment? This is coach Kim Hyun-woo, who is literally making history.]

“Director.”

“huh?”

Jamie Vardy catches Hyunwoo before the awards ceremony.

He pointed to Big Ear.

“The director will lift it up.”

“Okay, okay.”

Traditionally, wasn’t it the captain’s job to lift the trophy?

Hyunwoo waved his hand, but De Bruyne also chimed in with what Vardy said.

“I fell down earlier and I think I sprained my wrist… I don’t think I can lift the trophy.”

“Then we should call the medical team.”

“Anyway, please do it, director.”

Players who push Hyunwoo’s back without any hesitation.

Hyunwoo had no choice but to stand in front of the trophy.

[The players are supporting the coach’s back.]

[Haha. He is known for being strict, but Coach Kim Hyun-woo is also known for getting along well with the players.]

As Hyunwoo had no choice but to pick up the trophy, the players started stomping their feet and making a fuss.

Finally, when Hyunwoo raised the trophy.

Flower petals scattered along with the firecrackers.

“Wow!”

“Barnet! Barnett! Barnett!”

“Kim! Kim!”

[20-21 Champions League Final. The best football team in Europe is Barnet FC.]

[No one can deny now that Barnett are a club that can stand shoulder to shoulder with other big clubs.]

[Watching Barcelona in 08-09, I wondered if a better team could emerge, but I feel once again that nothing lasts forever.]

[First of all, Barnett’s heyday is not over yet! As long as Director Kim Hyun-woo is here.]

* * *

Time passed quickly.

The European football world is regaining its vitality as the recession caused by Corona is coming to an end.

While many clubs were busy moving players, Barnett were concentrating on strengthening their squad.

They had bench players like Raphael Leao, Jude Bellingham, Declan Rice and Ruben Dias.

Still, there are people who continue to wonder about Hyunwoo’s whereabouts.

Hasn’t it been several years since he was in power?

Besides, while he was at the helm of Barnett, there was no one to stand against him.

It was natural that the football world would pay attention.

As The Sun’s transfer article grew like wildfire, Hyunwoo held a press conference.

– As someone from the same Qatari fund, what do you think about Messi’s transfer to PSG?

― There was an article saying that you would take over as head coach of the England national team. What do you think about that?

– Are you willing to take charge of another club team?

Amidst the torrent of questions from reporters.

Hyunwoo put his finger to his lips.

When he took the microphone, his son-in-law became quiet.

“I can assure you that I have no intention of stepping down from this position.”

– So, does that mean that Barnett will remain as director?

“I’m not just talking about the managerial position. I’m talking about the throne of the PL and the Champions League.”

The reporters were speechless at Hyunwoo’s remarks.

“therefore….”

Hyunwoo, who had been silent for a moment, made eye contact with the camera and declared.

“If you have confidence, go for it.”

《The Genius Soccer Coach’s 2nd Episode》 Complete

Hello. This is the Writer’s Shareholders’ Meeting.

There was a time when I would look up locker room speeches from coaches.

I am just a soccer fan, far from being a soccer professional.

There are parts of the managers’ locker room speeches that really touch people’s hearts.

Hyunwoo’s story is something I started writing because I wanted to share that feeling with other people.

Sometimes I feel regret.

I wonder if there was a better way to develop the story? What if the ending was in a different format? Those are the kinds of concerns I have.

But as the saying goes, there is a next time because there is regret. I thought it was right to end it here.

There’s a lot I want to say, but I’m worried that it will go on forever, so I’m careful.

It was entirely possible for Hyunwoo’s story to end like this thanks to the support of our readers.

I wrote it, but I also shared it with my readers.

I hope that while you are reading this, you will feel as happy as if you were watching a soccer game. I will end here.

Thank you to all the readers who have read so far.
