Galaxy Coach. Рамиль Латыпов

is my ideal in life. My idol. She saved us all from war for many years. She fought for equality and justice. I personally voted for her in the elections. But she lost in them. Maybe it was all a set-up. The world appeared before me in its true light. Having come to my senses a little, I said. – Elena, why did you call me? I will do anything for you. Know that I voted for you.

      – I was very upset when our football team was kicked out of the galaxy championship. I’ve always liked him. My late husband loved watching it. This is his memory. I paid a lot of bribes for this. But we were allowed into the final part of the championship. Only three games and we are in the semi-finals. There will be an announcement about this tomorrow. But there was a condition. Another team will go from us. I decided that you will be his coach. The team is waiting for you at the training camp. I chose the players myself. Almost. They’re all nice guys. There are ladies too. Don’t hurt them.

      “I will do anything for you,” I repeated. – There’s probably a car waiting for me downstairs? Right?

      – Yes. And let Maria go with you. She is your team captain. The girl plays well and is faithful to me. “She saw my doubtful face and continued. – Don’t worry, she was playing football. And most importantly Yuri. Don’t tell who I am to anyone. – I nodded and began to go out. – By the way, champion. Stop writing nasty things about me under the pseudonym Champ88. It offends me to read that I am an old and bald grandfather. – She smiled a beautiful smile. Ladies under fifty. – Otherwise you will become the first person executed by me personally.

      I swallowed the lump and left. Maybe she’s not as kind as I thought. The elevator played a familiar tune. I recognized her. This is the anthem of the Ministry of Education. Everything came together in my head. The face of a dictator is a collective image of the rulers of the past. Maria met me on the ground floor near the bar. A young boy in short black swimming trunks, with the body of an athlete, was clearly approaching her. She didn’t like it.

      – The lady is with me. Puppy aside. – I said proudly. I’m the national team coach. I dreamed about this all my life. Wings appeared behind me. I can fly straight.

      – Who said that? – He turned around. Big guy. On my head. He’s one of the new people. With altered DNA. Bred specifically for the war with the council.

      – Don’t quarrel, boys. I’ll go with the hero. And you, Petya, go while you’re safe. “She took out a small blaster from her purse. He, seeing him, backed away and plopped into the pool. Everyone laughed. “Let’s go quickly before he realizes that it’s not loaded.”

      She and I ran to the car at the entrance. Let’s go to the space port. These are the adventures that await me. After all, leading a team is a difficult task. Especially the new team. With such a captain.

      Chapter 2 Training

      – What do you say, does the coach like the base? – Maria asked when we arrived at the base on Mars.

      – A good base – I said. Apparently they spent a lot of money on it. Everything is new and clean. New lawn. “It’s bad that that kind of money was wasted.” We are unlikely to win even one game.

      – Don’t be discouraged, coach. The most interesting things are yet to come. I’ll introduce you to the team. “She took me to the field. Everything has already begun there. Two teams played a match. Some in red T-shirts, others in blue. Everyone is young and beautiful. I’ll give a lot. Which made me happy. They are beautiful, maybe I can go on a walk with them. This is what I always did as a team. Once it even happened with a nurse. These memories made me smile. The team thought I was glad to meet. What a bunch of incompetents. Yes, my team and I would have beaten them in our best years. But many friends are no longer there. Expelled for political statements. Some died from anabolic steroids. Sport does not tolerate weakness.

      I sat down in the head coach’s chair. People came up to me to introduce themselves. Then I gave the command and they continued the game. It is clear that they played poorly. Only Nilova played well. The assistant coach and my friend from the national team approached me. Defender Pedro Liones. Not a bad player. But a badass.

      – Hi, friend. What do you think of their performance?

      – You should tell me honestly or lie. – I said laughing. A friend handed me a bottle of kvass. We’re clinking glasses.

      – Don’t be strict with them. The best who are. And most importantly. – He said in my ear. – Not involved in political activities. Well, except for the captain. But she is a beautiful girl and the judges like her. Maybe we’ll get through.

      “And they’ll definitely let us in there.” Won’t they throw stones at us? Because we attacked the Casiopeans and captured their fleet. Some planets even.

      – Well, this galactic council has become completely insolent. He wants us to live the way they want. But we are patriots. And they had rights to these planets and ships.

      – You are the patriot Pedro. – I laughed. I myself caught him reading prohibited literature in the locker room. Even in the best years of the republic there was a lot of such waste paper. The brainwashing machinations of the galactic council. The results show that they succeeded. Everyone has gone crazy.

      – When it’s profitable, yes. I left the national team. He spent three years in prison. I made a team there. Won the championship between colonies. Mirte personally chose me. He knows that I don’t want to go back and will obey him in everything. Yuri, we live in a world that is so different from what it was before. Everything was simple there. Now everything is complicated. Any word and you are the enemy. Although you might not even want it. “He closed his eyes, apparently remembering his prison years. – Be careful. There are a lot of informers here.

      – I already understood that. But let’s better discuss the team. How do you train them?

      – Five three two. The simplest scheme. We have two scoring players. Nilova and Mess. He insisted on such a scheme. It’s hard to argue with him. Maybe you can curb him. I could not. Let me introduce you to him better. “He raised his hand and a tall man in his late twenties approached us. New growth of DNA of changed people. The pride of the new administration.

      – Was your name Pedro? – He said in a hoarse voice.

      – Coach Gromov wants to talk about tactics. You don’t listen to me.

      The two-meter strong man looked at me clearly in surprise. They are born with a sense of superiority over ordinary people.

      – I appreciated your game and will say right away. You suck. There is no defense at all. The attack was not played. You’re pulling the blanket too much over yourself. Nilova could have scored several times. But you didn’t pass. I change your position on the field. You are now a central midfielder.

      – How so? I’m the best player on the team. Nilova cannot run fast like me and my kick is three percent more accurate.

      – This is my decision. Do not argue. “I said loudly so that everyone could hear, because everyone on the field was playing as hard as they could, listening to our conversation.” – Whoever argues with me will not get a place in the starting lineup for the next match. So decide for yourself.

      – Okay coach. “The tale is strong and began to leave. Mumbling to myself. – I won’t leave it like this. The dictator finds out about this. He himself chose me as a striker.

      – Well, you built it. That’s the way it should be with them. It’s good that you are with us. We might have a chance. They are like children. These changed ones grow up quickly. He is only two years old. So he behaves like a child. But with him we have a chance.

      – I doubt it. – I laughed. We are good friends. But I can’t do a miracle.

      So the day passed. My requirements for the game were fulfilled,
