Упражнение 24. a) Прочитайте следующий диалог; Устно переведите на слух (по абзацу с заметками); b) Выступите в роли переводчика:

FIFA magazine: The United Arab Emirates are not due to play in the Asian

Cup until July but your contract has already been extended until 2010. Why? Bruno Metsu: We won the Gulf Cup in January, which had a tremendous impact.

In the semi-fi nal against Saudi Arabia and the fi nal against Oman, the stadium in Abu Dhabi was packed, whereas normally the national team only plays in front of 2,000 or 3,000! You have to understand that the Gulf Cup of Nations, which was first held in 1970, is a highly prestigious tournament across the whole of the Middle East and the UAE had never won it before! When I took over as coach last year, my employers did not ask me to win the Asian Cup but the Gulf Cup. ‘That victory gave rise to rare scenes of jubilation throughout the country.

FIFA magazine:Was winning the Gulf Cup one of the conditions for the

extension of your contract?

Metsu: No, but my employers have demonstrated that they value me and did not want to lose me for a second time. After winning the first ever AFC Champions League (in 2003) and the UAE league championship twice (in 2003 and 2004) with Al-Ain, who are owned by the Emir of Abu Dhabi, I received a lot of offers. My employers fi rst of all told me verbally that I was free to leave while I was still under contract. They then resented the fact that I left to go to Qatar to coach Al-Gharafa because there is a great rivalry between the different Gulf countries. They complained to FIFA and I was ordered to pay a fine for breach of contract.

23

FIFA magazine:Despite this disagreement, you came back to the UAE. Metsu: My fi rst year in Qatar went very well because Al-Gharafa won the

championship by a comfortable margin and without losing a single match. However, the Crown Prince did not appreciate his club, Al-Sadd, being dethroned. Then, since the players are not contracted to the clubs but to the Olympic Committee chaired by the Crown Prince, my team was dismantled:

Marcel Desailly, for example, who had brought his experience to bear on my defence, was “transferred” to Qatar Club. Nevertheless, Al-Gharafa still won the cup, but the circumstances had become too diffi cult to carry on. Since I had maintained good contacts in the UAE, I got the opportunity to come back, this time as national team coach.

FIFA magazine: Why did you return to the UAE via Saudi Arabia?

Metsu: Pure chance. The two-time Asian champions (2004 and 2005), AlIttihad of Jeddah, were only fi fth in the table and were in danger of missing out on the four-team fi nal round of the championship. The club president, Mansour AlBalili, therefore offered me a one-month contract to save the season. We came third and were then beaten by Al-Hilal in the semi-fi nals in a fi ery atmosphere in Riyadh. It was a brief but very rewarding experience. The people there are very passionate about football and the big matches are played in front of sell-out crowds.

FIFA magazine: You are once again a national team coach after four years of

coaching at club level. Which of the two roles do you prefer?

Metsu: I am a passionate person, I follow my heart and am in constant need of a challenge. There’s no big difference between club and national team management. The most important thing for me is the objective.

FIFA magazine: And what is your objective now that you have won the Gulf

Cup?

Metsu: I have signed until 2010 because I want to take the UAE to the World Cup in South Africa. It’s a fantastic challenge! The UAE took part in the 1990 finals in Italy with Zagallo as coach and I would be very proud to take them to a second World Cup.

FIFA magazine: In the last three World Cups, Asia’s representatives have been virtually the same from one tournament to the next: Korea Republic, Saudi

Arabia, Japan, Iran or China. Is there really room for the UAE?

Metsu: Of course. Bahrain, for example, were very close to qualifying for the 2006 World Cup and were only knocked out in a play-off against Trinidad and Tobago. Our victory in the Gulf Cup has infused the players with added confi dence. It has given players like Ismail Matar an extra dimension. He was in the junior team that took part in the U-20 World Cup in the UAE in 2003 and was even voted player of the tournament. He has now grown up and become the leader of the senior team, both on and off the pitch. He’s always on form! He scored fi ve goals during the Gulf Cup, which proved decisive in the semi-fi nal and fi nal and was once again voted player of the tournament. He has the potential to develop in a European league.

24

FIFA magazine: Do the UAE have the potential to qualify for a World Cup? Metsu: We are working on it with my assistant, Dominique Bathenay, and the

head of the Olympic team, Alex Dupont, who is preparing for the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing. 1 recently travelled with his team to Uzbekistan and was pleasantly surprised by the players’ maturity and ability to negotiate a match in unfamiliar weather conditions with cold, snow and wind. I intend to include some of them in the senior squad for the Asian Cup

FIFA magazine: What is the UAE’s target for the Asian Cup 2007?

Metsu: We came top of our qualifying group ahead of Oman and Jordan – who reached the quarter-fi nals of the previous tournament in China in 2004 – and Pakistan. This year’s fi nals are being held in several different countries: we will be playing in Vietnam against the home side, Japan and Qatar. It’s a very competitive group. It would be good to fi nish in the top two of our group and qualify for the quarter-finals.

FIFA magazine: Who poses the biggest threat?

Metsu: Japan, who won the two previous tournaments, are a cut above the rest. Second place will be a toss-up between Vietnam, Qatar and us. You have to watch out for Qatar because they have naturalised a lot of players, in particular a Uruguayan who I signed for Al-Gharafa when I was coach there and a Brazilian who played in Japan.

FIFA magazine: Big name coaches like Tomislav Ivic, Roy Hodgson, Carlos Queiroz and Dick Advocaat had all failed with the UAE before you came along.

What is the secret of your success?

Metsu: I think that these days everybody has the same resources with which to prepare a team from a tactical and physical standpoint. The majority of coaches have played at the highest level, taken coaching courses and been awarded diplomas. The difference is in the psychological side of things, the way you approach a match.

FIFA magazine: How do you go about it?

Metsu: Above all, I try to make the players feel as confi dent as possible; I talk very little to them about their opponents, a little bit at the beginning of the week of the match, then nothing other than to point out their weaknesses. There are coaches who emphasise the opponents’ qualities to such an extent that the players come onto the pitch feeling frightened. I use videos a lot: before the opening match at the 2002 World Cup against France, I showed the Senegalese players all the Bleus’ weaknesses. 1 never spoke of the qualities possessed by Henry, Trezeguet or Petit

... besides, the players knew them already.

FIFA magazine: Do you take a different approach depending on whether you

are coaching in France, Senegal or the Middle East?

Metsu: Of course, you have to take into account the circumstances and the players’ mentality. I’ve seen a number of European coaches and even Frenchmen fail in Qatar, the UAE or Africa because they arrive very sure of themselves and want to apply principles imported from Europe ... it doesn’t work. We should not

25

forget that we are brought in to serve the players to a certain extent, i.e. to take their environment and habits into account in order to increase effi ciency on the pitch.

FIFA magazine: In extending your contract with the UAE until 2010, are you

not afraid of being forgotten and overlooked by a big European club?

Metsu: I have a clause in my contract to release me in the event that a big club makes me an offer, but to be honest, I am very happy in the UAE. Life in Dubai is very pleasant and I have recently bought a house here. I return to France from time to time to see my family and friends, but I soon miss Dubai. I’ve lived in this region for fi ve years and I think that the people have adopted me. It’s important to feel loved; it motivates you to take on new challenges.

Упражнение 33. Прочитайте текст и переведите. Lionel Messi Workout Routine

Even if you only have the slightest interest in the world of football, you will have heard of Lionel Messi. He has been arguably the best player of alltime since his career reached an explosive phase under Pep Guardiola in 2008-09.

However, despite his slight frame and ungainly style there is something to Messi that many people don’t credit him for enough – his condition. As well as following a rigorous diet that takes many different phases into action to give him the best quality of life possible, Messi is an incredibly devoted fitness trainer.

His conditioning is supreme, and his stamina and ability to continuously burst around the pitch game after game is one of his finest attributes. The

little Argentine is one of the most powerful players of his size, and his low center of gravity lets him blow away from his opponents with consummate ease.

Aside from thousands of hours mastering the ball and in-play situations creating an immense level of fi tness, Messi has two dedicated workout plans that he follows for maximum effect and potency when taking to the fi eld of play.

Typically, Messi starts with a workout session that deals with his acceleration and general pace. This is a combination of strength building and improving his aerobic capacity – he needs to be powerful enough to ride challenges, yet agile enough to turn in tight positions without compromising his safety. This will take in large amounts of squat jumping, rope skipping and hopping over hurdles to give him a fi ne balance.

Additionally, some short sprints are done to help increase stamina over short bursts. The second workout that Messi uses is to do with his movement. As the key playmaker of his team, Messi spends most of the 90-minutes (and training) marked rigorously. He has to be able to vault away in different directions with ease. This is done by doing large reps of pillar skips (running forward with your feet reaching high into the air), forward lunges and multi-direction lunges. Then, a final run incorporating a change of direction for ten minutes will shortly follow.

This is a core training program that the best player in the world uses – it does not need to be space-age or super modern to be successful!
