雷克瑟姆-格林德沃大学的一位讲师在带领他的球队进入欧洲后，今年夏天开始了一场足球冒险。 除了在该大学担任足球讲师、教练和表现专家外，克里斯·休斯还兼任威尔士国内联赛中总部位于powys的新城afc的经理，即jd-cymru总理。 5月底，新城在附加赛决赛中以5比3险胜卡埃纳芬城，获得了欧洲联盟会议联赛的参赛资格。 这是克里斯自2013年执教以来第二次带领新城队进入欧洲赛场，此前他曾在2015年经历过欧洲联赛资格赛阶段，击败了马耳他球队瓦莱塔，然后迎战丹麦豪门哥本哈根足球俱乐部。 住在登比格郡的克里斯表示，他很享受与拉脱维亚和圣马力诺等国的其他俱乐部一起参加前几轮欧洲冒险的机会。 他说：“我们的情况急转直下。 抽签将在6月15日进行，所以还有不到两周的时间，第一场比赛将在7月8日进行，因此我们有很多事情要处理&很明显，球员体检、新冠肺炎检测，还有一些友谊赛要准备。 这几天很忙。 “到目前为止，这只是一个专注于卡纳芬并从那里开始的案例。 在封锁前，我们在积分榜上排名倒数第二，所以当我们在3月的第一周从封锁中回来时，首要的目标是摆脱倒数第二。 “我们在22场比赛后仍然落后附加赛9分，所以还有很多地方需要弥补，在10场比赛中有9分的差距，但我们在战胜哈弗福德韦斯特的比赛中很快就弥补了，这只是保持这一点的一个例子。”。 “为了获得欧洲杯参赛资格，克里斯的新城队在附加赛半决赛中战胜了彭本队，在决赛中击败了卡纳芬镇队，这两个客场比赛都很艰难，因为新冠肺炎的措施，即使没有球迷在场。 在卡纳芬以1-0落后的情况下，知更鸟队以2-1领先，但东道主在下半场以3-2领先。 但比赛的最后时刻，新城队奋力反击，在短短7分钟内连进3球，最终以5-3获胜，这对克里斯来说是一场惊心动魄的大结局。 他说：“这一周和社交媒体上有很多人评论我看比赛有多好看，但我在边线上的感觉并不是这样！”尽管没有球迷在场，但在球场外的每个有利位置都有卡纳芬的球迷，他们仍然营造了一个良好的氛围。 “参加比赛时，镇上、路边和各种地方都挂着他们的横幅。 “克里斯和他的队员们现在面临着后勤方面的挑战，既要兼顾日常工作，又要为欧洲顶级足球的味道做准备，至少要在下个月的第一轮比赛中进行主客场比赛，这并不容易。 他说：“我们是一个兼职俱乐部，兼职球员，我显然在大学里得到了这个角色&我收到了来自大学的一些非常好的信息，每个人都非常好。 “希望每个人的雇主都让他们休息几天&我们还不确定我们离开的时候是7月8日还是7月15日，但这给了我们一个月的时间让每个人都知道。 “那我们得把日程安排好，行程安排好。 周六开车回家时，我在考虑招募、留住（球员）和计划，我没有给自己太多时间享受，但周末我确实和家人一起庆祝了。 “我们必须在6月中/月底之前把我们的球队名单交给欧足联，所以我们需要做的一切，我们都必须快速推进。 我们的第一场季前友谊赛是6月19日！球员们将有不到两周的休息时间。 “我已经告诉球员们要享受每一分钟，因为我已经参与足球运动很长时间了，很少有一个赛季你能赢得奖杯或在欧洲踢球。 “我们不是一家有大量资源进入欧洲的俱乐部，所以在六年内两次进入欧洲是非常棒的。 这对我们足球俱乐部的每个人来说都是又一个巨大的成就。 ”。a wrexham glyndwr university lecturer is embarking on a footballing adventure this summer after guiding his team into europe.alongside his role as lecturer in football, coaching and performance specialist at the university, chris hughes doubles up as manager of powys-based newtown afc, in wales’ domestic league, the jd cymru premier.at the end of may, newtown gained qualification to the europa conference league, an inaugural uefa competition launching this summer, after a thrilling 5-3 play-off final win at caernarfon town.it is the second time chris has guided newtown into european competition since taking charge in 2013, having previously experienced the europa league qualifying stages in 2015, beating maltese side valletta before taking on danish giants fc copenhagen.chris, who lives in denbighshire, says he is relishing the opportunity of another european adventure with other clubs involved in the early rounds drawn from countries such as latvia and san marino.he said: “we’ve got a tight turnaround. the draw is on june 15 so just under two weeks away and the first game will be on july 8 so we’ve got a lot of things to sort out – obviously player medicals, covid tests, some friendly games to prepare. it’s been a busy few days.“up until now it was a case of just focusing on caernarfon and going from there. we were second from bottom in the table pre-lockdown, so first and foremost the aim when we returned from lockdown in the first week of march was to get out of the bottom two.“we were still nine points adrift of the play-off place after 22 games so that’s a lot of ground to make up, a nine point gap over 10 games, but we made it up quite quickly over haverfordwest and it was just a case of maintaining that.”to qualify for europe, chris’s newtown side overcame penybont in the play-off semi-final, and caernarfon town in the final, both tough away games even without fans present due to covid measures.having gone behind 1-0 at caernarfon, the robins went into a 2-1 lead only to see the hosts go 3-2 up in the second-half.but a strong finish to the game saw newtown fight-back to win 5-3 with three goals in just seven minutes, in what was a nerve-shredding finale for chris.he said: “i’ve had a lot of people comment to me in the week and on social media about how good the game was to watch, but it didn’t feel like that to me on the touchline!“even though there were no fans in, there were caernarfon fans at every vantage point outside the ground and they still made a good atmosphere.“coming into the game there were banners for them all around the town, roadside and all sorts.”chris and his players now face the logistical challenge of juggling their day jobs with preparing for a taste of top-level european football, with at least a home leg and away leg to prepare for in the first round next month - something which will not be easy.he said: “we’re a part-time club, part-time players, i’ve obviously got the role within the university – i’ve had some really nice messages from the university, everyone’s been really good.“hopefully everyone’s employers let them have a couple of days off – we’re not sure yet if it’s going to be july 8 or july 15 when we’re away but it gives us a month to let everyone know.“then we have to sort out the schedule, the itinerary. driving home on saturday i was thinking about recruitment, retention (of players), planning, i didn’t give myself a lot of time to enjoy it but i did have a celebration with my family over the weekend.“we’ve got to get our squad list to uefa by the middle / end of june so everything we need to do, we have to press fast-forward on. our first pre-season friendly is june 19! the players will have just under two weeks off.“i’ve told the players to enjoy every minute because i’ve been involved in football a long time and very rarely do you get a season where you’re winning trophies or playing in europe.“we’re not a club with big resources to get into europe so to do it twice in six years is brilliant. it’s another huge achievement for everyone at our football club.” .本文来源： WGU足球讲师指导俱乐部进行欧洲冒险
