It wasn't until they had left the training base that Trigella asked, "Any championship is elusive until the final ninety minutes are over. Yet you demanded that he exchange two championships for a starting position, isn't that a bit harsh?"

"You know, I'm under a lot of pressure in this position. The clubs, families, teachers, and coaches behind many selected players all need some reason to be appeased."
Trigella said with a bitter smile, "So Deng Kai made things harder for himself? You're really too unkind, he's still a kid, are you really going to hold him to that?"
