Now, if you have been following Euro 2012, then first the British team bowed to Italians on Penalties and then Portuguese got kicked out in Penalties. While Portugal was my favorite for this tournament and I could have easily bet on them. But as luck would have had it.
Then, if you recall the World Cup 2006, France Vs Italy, won by Italians 5-3 on Penalties.
Penalties are more of Test of Emotional Ecology of the Team, then the Kick Ability of the Team. I reckon, most players during normal coarse of training would shoot 5 out of 5 kicks right into the post. But when it comes to a Real Time Match, things change 180 Deg. Like the English Coach said, how do I create the environment of High power stress, nervousness and uneasiness while coaching the team.
Interestingly, this week, I was also watching interview of the famous British Psychiatrist Steve Peters on " Hard Talk " . Steve is the mental coach for the British Olympiad cyclist team and he has improved the performance of several cyclist , boxers , football players over the years. Now, here is the situation, where a player has to overcome the emotional instability and put all the power and skill into the last shot of this match and get the Goal. But invariably most of the time fails.
When I was watching way back in 2006, the world cup between Italy and France and watched nervous French loosing out to Italians 5-3. I was only thinking, the coach had terribly let down his team. Any coach worth his salt, would have taught his subjects that during a penalty shot, it is not the kick from the foot, but kick from the mind.
Like the English coach says, he cannot emulate the stress environment for his players. This is Bull Shit. One does not emulate the stress environment. This is never going to happen. But one trains the mind to shut to that environment and stand as a man of steel in such a time. And shutting the mind, needs a very rigorous practice, same as practicing ball with the foot. It is practicing ball with the mind.
Shutting the mind to that instant world needs the extra power , which only a mind trainer can provide like Psychiatrist Steve Peters or alike. Now unless teams are regularly coached on their mind by top psychiatrist it is mot unlikely that they would emerge as winners.
Further, each of the players should be trained kicking into the goal post, with eyes blindfolded. He should visualize mentally the goal, shut himself and BANG the ball goes into the post.
I know, while playing chess against Mr Advanced Computer, my face, ears , head , eyes would turn Red and I was nervous to even move the cursor. Till one day, I shut my eyes and the whole chess board appeared in front of my eyes and then I would speak out the moves and open a small aperture of my eyes and move the cursor. Voila. Soon, I saw that " LOSE" will show up on the computer player. My current chess global ranking is still very good.
Unless the emotional ecology of the sportsmen and sportswomen are not taken care , the physical fitness and sport superiority is only basic to the job . Besides, diet, fitness, sports training, IQ and emotional ecology needs to be greatly improved for most sportsman. Whether in Football or any other game.
Needless to say, rebellious sportsmen take advantage and always do better in the situation, as they are never nervous about the crowds. It is only the most disciplined players, who lose their shots . Mind Discipline is about submission and rebellion is about non submission. That is also the reason, that most young boys, who are more inclined towards sports are never good in studies. Study needs discipline and Sports needs extra degree of Freedom.
Remember it is also the mind indiscipline, which creates innovation. Disciplined minds are never trained to question or improve on anything.
No wonder the Indisciplined Italians kicked the Penalties into Brits and have reached as high as Final of Euro 2012. And not to forget that at the end it is always the fate. I give fate sanctity services to the football teams ; www.paybackpalmistry.page.tl
