On the sidelines of Nghe An Newspaper Cup: The story of 'rituals'
Each team in the Nghe An Newspaper Cup Youth Football Tournament has its own spirit and style. These unique features are easily recognized in every specific detail, every small "ritual".
A beautiful "ritual"
After the exciting football match between Tan Ky Children's Team and Nghia Dan Children's Team, the young players of Tan Ky Children's Team went to greet the coaches of the other team. In response to this gesture of respect, although they were very sad because of the unsatisfactory results, the coaches of Nghia Dan Team still smiled, shook hands and congratulated the Tan Ky players.
- Good job!
- Congratulations kids, good, good, good!
In response to these sincere wishes and compliments, the young playersTan Kythank you very politely
It is known that the “ritual” of greeting the opposing team’s coach is not mandatory and not all teams do it. But clearly, this is a ritual that both shows “respect for teachers” and upholds the spirit of noble sportsmanship.
Can't scream when sitting
Because it was not live-streamed, at the children’s stadium this morning, the number of parents using their phones to livestream for their family to watch was much higher. To get the clearest footage, the parents insisted on standing close to the railing and refused to sit. This made it impossible for the audience behind to watch the match and they had to constantly remind them. But after sitting for a while, the “streamers” would fidget and stand up, and then stand up completely.
- You guys should sit down and watch properly! - an audience member behind reminded.
- I can't sit still - a streamer mumbled as he moved his phone to another corner.
- Why shout? We're also cheering, we're also shouting - the other person replied.
As soon as he finished speaking, the whole stadium burst into cheers because the young players had just scored another beautiful goal.
- I think standing to cheer is more fun, the players must play better. Just standing didn't do anything, but as soon as I sat down, the goal was conceded - a streamer explained and then stepped back to continue cheering.
Unity is strength
Before entering the match with Thanh Chuong Children's players, the Children's team playersHoang Maihad an exciting “high-five” with the seniors of the youth team. The audience reached down from the field, the players jumped up from the field, after these high-fives, it felt like the players had more energy.
That is not the only “ritual” to mobilize strength and improve the spirit of Hoang Mai players. Before each match, the players of this team also gather again, form a circle and shout loudly to show their determination and unity.
Although these are just small details, it seems that this brings great spiritual strength - the strength of solidarity and unity. Perhaps this is what contributed to the convincing victory of the Hoang Mai Children's team in the match this morning (June 8).
