Umxholo

• Uphengululo lwe

Yintoni ethatha eyona ibalaseleyo? Kumdlali webhola ekhatywayo uCarli Lloyd-ophumelele imbasa yegolide yeOlimpiki izihlandlo ezibini owaba ligorha laseMelika kweli hlobo xa wayeqhubela iqela lesizwe lebhola ekhatywayo lase-US ukuba liphumelele iNdebe yeHlabathi yokuqala ukusukela ngo-1999-ilula: isicwangciso esicacileyo seminyaka eli-17. Ngapha koko, umntu oneminyaka eyi-33 utyhile wathi ucwangcisiwe kwingqungquthela yesithandathu ye-espnW yaBasetyhini + yezeMidlalo kule nyanga. Kwaye kuyabonakala ukuba, laa ndlela yokuqhuba umnqwazi ephumelele iNdebe yeHlabathi? Ewe, yayiyinto nje Inxalenye yesicwangciso solawulo lwehlabathi ngo-2020. (Ngokukrakra.)

Kodwa njengokuba kunjalo ngobuninzi babantu abaphumelele uber, uLloyd akayedwa kwimpumelelo yakhe: Umqeqeshi wakhe, uJames Galanis, naye udlala indima enkulu. Ngo-2003, wathembisa ukuqeqesha uLloyd-ke umdlali ongaphandle komzimba owaye wanqunyulwa kwiqela lase-U-Under-21 lase-US simahla (wayengenamali). Ngoba? Wabona amandla amakhulu: "Nanku umdlali owayenezakhono ezihambele phambili, kwaye ukuba ndinokulungisa iindawo ezimbalwa, ndinokuba nomdlali obalaseleyo ezandleni zam," utshilo uGalanan. (Ahem, iQela le-USWNT leSekethe yokuSebenza ayingomdlalo.)

Kwaye iminyaka yokusebenza kanzima ... kakuhle, kuyasebenza. "Akazange athathe ubuthathaka bakhe kwaye aphucule. Wajika waba namandla akhe. Yingakho uCarli Lloyd nguCarli Lloyd, "utsho.

Ke yenze njani le duo yedyanmic? Kwaye basebenza ngantoni kule minyaka mihlanu idlulileyo yesicwangciso? Siye sabamba uLloyd noGalanis ngeemfihlo zabo. Biba 'kwaye nawe unokuba linyathelo elinye ukusondela kwimpumelelo enkulu.

Hlala kulo mzuzu

“UJames wayenesicwangciso esibalaseleyo kwaye wayedla ngokundityisa kancinci kancinci into endandifuna ukugxila kuyo ngelo xesha,” utsho uLloyd ngoqeqesho lwakhe. "Khange ndijonge kude ngaphambili kuba xa ujonga iziphumo, uhlala ungazijongi ezona zinto zibalulekileyo ziphakathi. Ulibale iNdebe yeHlabathi kunye neeOlimpiki. Undenze ukuba ndihlale kulo mzuzu."

Yithathe Kancinane

"Saqala ukwakha kancinci kancinci ngaphandle nangaphandle kwebala," utshilo uLloyd. Isigaba sokuqala, esasine-Lloyd esenza iqela lesizwe kunye nokufumana amanqaku aphumelele umdlalo kwi-Olimpiki yeHlabathi ka-2008, kwathatha iminyaka emihlanu ukuyigqiba. Isigaba sesibini, esasizakufumana indawo yokuqala kwiqela kwaye sifumane amanqaku amabini okuphumelela umdlalo kwi-Olimpiki yehlobo lika-2012, sithathe ezinye ezine. “Inqanaba lesithathu belimalunga nokuthatha indawo kwaye ndizahlule kuye wonke umntu,” utshilo u-Lloyd, wongeza ngelithi: “Ibiza kuphela emva kwee-Olimpiki zasehlotyeni zika-2016, kodwa sivakalelwa kukuba siyifezekisile loo nto kunyaka wokuqala, ke ngoku siyahamba. ukuya kwisigaba sesine. "

Phakamisa iBar

"Kuqala, uJames kufuneka abone ukuba ndikulungele na ukwenza izinto ezinje ngokutya ngcono, ukukhathalela umzimba wam ngaphandle kwebala, kwaye ndiqhubeke nokuzenzela," utshilo uLloyd. (Wayenguye.) "Uqhubeka ephakamisa ibha, okwenza uqeqesho lube nzima kum. Indlela yodwa ndiza kukhula njengomntu kunye nomdlali ukuba wenza ukuba ndingakhululeki kum, "utsho. Ngapha koko, wade wavuma kwiNgqungquthela ye-espnW ukuba ukuzilolonga kwakhe kumfikisa kwinqanaba lokulila kanye ngeveki, kodwa uyazi ukuba angakwazi ukumelana nalo. (Ngaba ukhe uzibuze ukuba kutheni silila?)

Chitha indawo yakho yokuthuthuzela

Injalo loo nto-uGalanis uyazi ukuba uthini na ukutyhala uLloyd. Ukuzilolonga okukhulu kwasekuseni kaninzi kwenza imilenze yakhe ivakale njengoJello kwaye yamshiya ezibuza, ekhathazekile, angayijija njani imithambo yesibini ngaloo mvakwemini. Kodwa ngandlela thile wayehlala ezifumanisa esebenza ngokungahambi kakuhle kwezi ntsuku zimbini de ade afunde ubuchule obutsha obunzima kwaye ekugqibeleni waqalisa ukusisebenzisa kwimidlalo. Nje ukuba uGalanis ambone ekhululekile ngokuhamba nzima ngakumbi, wayeza kumkhupha kwakhona kwindawo yakhe yokuthuthuzela kunye nenye into ebonakala ngathi ayinakwenzeka. (Inqaku lokuzonwabisa: uLloyd akazange aphindaphinde umsebenzi omnye kwiminyaka eli-12!)

Qeqesha njenge-Underdog

"Kumnandi ngokwenene ukuba nomntu onokundityhalela ngaphaya kwemida," utshilo uLloyd malunga nesicwangciso sobuchule somqeqeshi wakhe. "Kukho lo mxholo oqhubekayo wokuqhubeka nokuziqeqesha njengowangaphantsi, nokuba yintoni endiyenzileyo. Ukuze uyenze ibe phezulu kwaye ube ngowona uphambili, kuya kufuneka uqhubeke." Ekugxilwe kuyo kule minyaka mihlanu izayo iya kuba kukuhlaselwa kweyesithathu yokugqibela. "Ndingaba ngcono ekudubuleni. Ndingaba ngcono emoyeni. Ndingcono ngokudlala ngeebhola. Eyona nto ipholileyo kukuba ndigqibe njengentshatsheli yeNdebe yeHlabathi, kodwa ngoku ndibuyela ekuzilolongeni. umdlali odlalayo. "

Bhiyozela impumelelo yakho

Sukuba nexhala-uGalanis uyayazi nendlela yokubhiyozela impumelelo endleleni. Ngelixa impendulo kaLloyd kwimizuzu nje engama-45 emva kokubamba isihloko esithi, "Sizilolonga nini kwakhona?", UGalanis (ngokuqinisekileyo wayegxeka kakhulu) wamxelela ukuba akonwabele ukuphumelela. Emva kwayo yonke loo nto, injongo yakhe yee-Olimpiki ze-2016 eRio kukuthatha indondo yegolide ye-Olimpiki yesithathu-kwaye yiNdebe yeHlabathi elandelayo kwi-2019, ukufumana amanqaku amahlanu kumdlalo.
