At the hospital where Reza was rushed, he was now looking sober, his vision was still a bit blurry, his breathing was also occasionally inconsistent.
“Hey, Son? What .... what do you feel?” Assistant head coach, goalkeeping coach, Markus.
He is currently accompanying Reza in the hospital, while the Indonesian team is still in a state of play without Reza's presence.
Even so, Nabil and his colleagues are still very good at defending and also attacking. Andrika who was charged heavy duty also can still complete the task until the end of the first half, the score is also still round glasses.
Returning to Reza, he suddenly directly sat himself down, staring around in a daze.
“Match?!” yells.
“Ssst .. already, you just take a break. Rest and wait for the results from the doctor,” explains Goalkeeper Coach Markus.
Reza slowly began to realize some things about his mistake in making decisions that resulted in danger to his own body.
He doesn't think about his body, he only thinks about how the goal is not to concede. Everything he imagined became a lesson for him for now.
Choose the right decision, even though you are as good and as strong as anything, the decision you choose is wrong then only comes a bad result of your choice. Life clearly chooses, tries to choose the right decision and guides us to the right path.
“Haa .. sorry, Coach,” Reza said as she lowered her head.
Regrets come at the end. Reza regretted, because his mistake in choosing a decision, made his team lose their solid wall at this time.
“Do you consider that special on the team? Come, Son! Make no mistake, this team has been assembled by Bima since AFF last year before you came.
This team, even without you, can still hold Japan's draw. We can still win against other strong teams. Don't underestimate the team we've built this hard-earned!”
Reza was immediately confronted by a lecture belonging to Coach Goalkeeper Markus.
Reza also took the wrong sentence back then, thinking that he was the special one and arguably the heart of the team. However, as the arrogance that began to slowly form made him feel more on top.
One thing is for sure, everyone has experienced something like that. They will feel on top when their abilities are getting better.
This is what makes most football athletes or even other sports athletes who fall from the top because of their arrogance, their character is clearly hated by the fans.
“Sorry, Coach, sorry from the bottom of my heart. Sorry for saying the undue, I was too arrogant,” Ogre Reza further lowered his head.
Markus stood up from his chair, he immediately embraced Reza.
“Nak, don't duck like that. Look ahead, make this event a lesson for you in the future.
Everyone must have felt it, where those from the summit suddenly fell,” explained Markus.
He took off his embrace and walked to the door of the room, turned around for a moment and said, “I want to check your results. Your parents called tuh.”
Directing the gaze with what Markus pointed to, Reza stared at her smartphone on top of a small closet beside the bed.
Reza hurriedly picked up the flat rectangular object and immediately answered a call from his mother.
“Nak!!! You all right? What the hell's going on? Why was Eca taken in an ambulance? Eca!”
A row of questions immediately hit his eardrum until it buzzed for a moment. Staring at the nanar screen of his smartphone, a thin smile was clearly imprinted in the look of his face.
“Mother, Eca is okay, Eca is just tired–”
“Eca lie! Son, I know, I saw the rerun,” interrupted Citra that made Reza speechless.
“Reza! You okay?!” A loud voice sounded.
Reza realized one thing, his family and friends fully supported him. They were so worried when Reza had to be rushed to a hospital that partnered with the tournament committee.
“Eca, here's Vera to talk.”
“Reza ... be careful,” said Vera who suddenly sounded a messy voice.
“Melani!!! Your son dropped my hole!” A special shout from angry mothers.
From the call came a debate between Citra and her mother Melani Vera.
It made Reza laugh. She was still very grateful to still hear her mother's babble to Melani, Vera's mother.
“Halo, this is Good! Bias, you know,” said Good.
Reza turned on the television to watch the football broadcast, while answering a few sentences to Bagus.
“Kak, how is Youth Tournament?”
“Obviously SMA Hope is getting ahead! Besides Riyandi, there are new members as goalkeepers. He's so great, no less great than you!”
Good and Reza talked to each other. Occasionally Reza is still focused on the television screen where attacks are ongoing from Indonesia U-17.
The attack was from the middle, Narendra who made a measurably forward feed movement using a horizontal breakthrough.
Nabil got it, until he managed to pass two Qatari U-17 players.
Nabil faced with the goalkeeper, a hanging ball created by him that makes the goalkeeper must stare at the ball past the reach of his fingers.
The ball came in at 67 minutes, changing the score to 1-1.
Yes, before exactly 60 minutes, Qatar managed to surpass Indonesia first through a free kick cheat.
Originally executing free kicks, he intended to do a flat ball under the fence of jumping players. The Indonesian players who form a living fence are arguably aware of it.
However, one thing that became a mistake, a Qatari player, Ali, made a small movement to touch the ball to change the direction of the ball path.
Andrika was unable to dispel the kick until Qatar scored.
Then in the seventy-eight minute, Coach Bima included Arjuna replacing I Komang as a striker.
Arjuna who was then plotted as a supersub by Coach Bima was able to complete his task well.
Two minutes later, Arjuna got a wild ball from a swipe error from the Qatari defender. Arjuna obviously did not waste a big opportunity at that time, then by controlling the ball using his feet.
Stepping quickly, swinging your left foot until you throw a hard ball. The ball without control then entered quite easily into the goal, the top left side.
Qatari goalkeeper Hassan came close to saving him, but he was just a little late in the move.
In the 80th minute, Indonesia turned ahead of Qatar through a goal from Arjuna that capitalized on the mistakes of the Qatar defender.
“Goool!” reza shouted, which surprised Markus when he entered the room.
Calls from Indonesia have also been closed, those in Palu are relieved that Reza is fine for now.
“Hahaha! So ... how do you feel after seeing the team that I, Bima and other colleagues assembled?” Markus sat beside Reza's bed.
Reza was silent. He was still sorting out the sentences he could use for now so as not to offend.
“They are very strong. I felt relieved as all the burdens were gone. At first I was scared when the goal was out of my control, so.
So ... essentially they are strong and able to compete!”
Markus smiled back at Reza's brief explanation.
