Chapter 94 Discussion

De Gea is a youth training product of the Atlético de Madrid youth team. At the age of 10, he joined the Atlético de Madrid football school for professional training. After that, until the age of 18, De Gea has always been a part of the Atlético de Madrid youth training system. member.

At the age of 18, De Gea signed with Atlético de Madrid to become a professional player and began to represent Atletico Madrid's B team in the second division.

For a goalkeeper, 18 years old is really too young. Atletico Madrid did not consider introducing De Gea into the first team at all, but planned to let him experience in the lower leagues and then go out on loan for recycling. Ability to stand on the stage of La Liga.

The turning point occurred a month later.

At the beginning of the 2009-2010 season, Atletico Madrid introduced Sergio Asenjo with a value of 500 million euros, but then Asenjo temporarily left the team because he represented Spain's U-21 in the U-20 World Youth Championship.

So De Gea was promoted to the Atlético de Madrid first team for the first time and officially served as the second goalkeeper.

He was promoted to the first team. Just less than a month later, De Gea's luck came again. In a Champions League game at Atletico Madrid's visit to Porto, the main goalkeeper was injured and left the field, allowing De Gea to be assigned the ball in a critical situation. The team checks and gets the chance to play.

Although Atletico Madrid lost 2-0, De Gea, who was only 18 years old, got a valuable debut opportunity.

After that, De Gea's performance got out of hand.

De Gea took advantage of the opportunity to come off the bench to participate in the game constantly, and always had a stable and excellent performance. When Wan Sheng arrived, De Gea has stabilized his starting goalkeeper position.

Such a talented goalkeeper, Wansheng will not let De Gea play the main force because of his age.

According to the memory of the last life, De Gea will go to the Premier League with a worth of nearly 25 million euros in 2011. That is to say, in just one season as the main goalkeeper of Atlético de Madrid, De Gea's worth has risen by more than 20 times. .

This shows how good De Gea really is!

Now De Gea has repaid Wansheng's trust. In the face of Iniesta's shot, De Gea very calmly waved from Iniesta, judging the direction of the football in advance, and immediately he slammed towards the goal. That side jumped out.

The Barcelona fans were chanting, they were going to celebrate the goal, but De Gea saved the ball with great accuracy.

The football goes straight into De Gea's arms!

————

"Iniesta! Iniesta! Iniesta!"

"Shoot-"

Spanish national sports TV broadcaster Fernandos Sanchez Bob is shouting nervously, the pitch is completely raised, according to the normal rhythm, followed by the shouting of a "Go" syllable, but this syllable is blocked. In the throat, because the next moment, the young goalkeeper of Atletico Madrid saved the ball.

Yes, pounced!

It's not a save, it's a complete hold of the ball in my arms!

Fernandos Sanbob widened his mouth, reacted immediately, swallowed the syllables in his mouth, and shouted again, "De Gea! De Gea! Atletico Madrid's 20-year-old young goalkeeper made A great save!"

"It was a great save, sorry, but 'great' is never an exaggeration!"

"Faced with Iniesta's shot from ten meters away, De Gea threw the ball in his arms! This save cannot be overstated! It's amazing! It's amazing!"

"De Gea, only 20 years old, according to the data, he is 7 months away from his 21st birthday, but he has already stood on the stage of La Liga and made great saves... For a goalkeeper, it is quite incredible of!"

"How can a 20-year-old goalkeeper perform in the top league?! Just look at De Gea, he is simply amazing!"

"In the summer, Atletico Madrid brought in Roberto, but when he arrived, he could only serve as a substitute for De Gea, he was dissatisfied with his position, so he left in the winter transfer, and now we see De Gea's Performance, you can see why Wansheng simply let De Gea play the main force!"

"De Gea is a complete Atletico Madrid youth training product, maybe he will become the most successful player produced by Atletico Madrid youth training in recent years!"

"..."

Among the many discussions, De Gea became the protagonist, and there is no doubt that De Gea will definitely become the central figure in media reports after the game.

In fact, De Gea has made a name for himself in Spain after he entered the Atlético de Madrid first team and played well and consistently with the team.

After officially becoming the main goalkeeper this season, De Gea has also been constantly reported by the media.

He is no longer a little-known player.

In January after Christmas, the "News of the World" assessed De Gea's worth at around 13 million euros. Atlético de Madrid also plans to re-sign De Gea's contract. At the age of 20, he has been classified as a star. .

Atletico Madrid has shown excellent offensive ability in the league, so several offensive players, such as Ozil, Raul Garcia and Aguero are constantly mentioned in reports, and the defense also includes the goalkeeper position, so it feels a little ignored .

Now that De Gea is playing, it will definitely attract many media reports.

De Gea's save is undoubtedly a serious blow to Barcelona's morale!

This is the best chance that Barcelona has had in the game so far. Iniesta's shot from about ten meters is actually thrown into the arms of the opponent's goalkeeper. It is simply unimaginable.

The chance to tie the score is gone.

The game time has also entered the stoppage time period. Barcelona does not even have the fighting spirit to continue to attack. They also began to look forward to the end of the first half and return to the locker room to have a good rest and adjust.

In stoppage time, the two sides attacked each other.

After that, the referee blew the whistle for the end of the first half, and the two teams returned to the locker room to prepare for the second half of the game.

The Atlético de Madrid players all exhaled.

A one-goal lead over Barcelona is definitely good for the team, but the first half was so tiring and they desperately needed time to relax.

On the way back to the locker room, many people were talking about Aguero's goal and De Gea's save. Everyone was talking about it.

De Gea is constantly being complimented by his teammates.

De Gea is only 20 years old and is not that mature. Facing the praise of his teammates, he is obviously a little shy.

But it's not over yet.

After Wansheng entered the locker room, the first sentence was to praise De Gea, "David! Good job! That save... God, I thought I saw God!"

This sentence made the players in the locker room burst into laughter.

De Gea bowed his head shyly.

The young man is still very happy. He can have such an excellent performance. His teammates and coaches have praised him one after another. He feels that there is nothing better than this.

The next Wansheng emphasizes is defense.

He first affirmed the team's performance, and then talked about the inadequacy of the players' performance. In the first half of the game, the defense in the middle supported by Morris did a good job. Niesta is still a little worse. The few chances Barcelona got are basically related to Iniesta.

"Be sure to pay attention to Iniesta and limit his performance!" Wan Sheng emphasized, "Central defenders should also make up for defense in a timely manner, and don't let Iniesta get the ball in a dangerous area. If the opponent gets the ball, It is also necessary to make up for the defense as soon as possible.”

Later, Wan Sheng talked about the possibility of the second half, especially the situation of losing the ball. "If the opponent scores, don't worry, continue to play according to the tactics. I believe that at least we will not lose at Camp Nou!"

This is a somewhat pessimistic view.

Wansheng has long thought about what to tell the players.

Compared with Barcelona, ​​the team is still too 'young'. Rafael Varane in the backcourt is not yet 18 years old, goalkeeper De Gea is just over 20, even Aguero, Ozil, etc. The famous star is not yet 23 years old. In the starting lineup, Felipe Luis, who is 25 and a half years old, is already the second oldest, and only 33-year-old Morris is older than him.

This Atlético de Madrid is undoubtedly a young team.

Although there is no need to talk about game experience, age also means immaturity, and immaturity in the heart will lead to problems when the team encounters difficulties.

For the match with Barcelona, ​​the biggest difficulty is undoubtedly the opponent tying the score.

It affects the mentality of the entire team.

Wansheng hopes to eliminate the impact to the greatest extent, so that the team can play normally even when they are caught up with the score, so that they can win the greatest possible victory.

So at this time, he must explain to the team.

————

During halftime, many media commentators and commentators were talking about the game.

The Catalan media is nothing more than criticizing and ridiculing Wansheng and Atletico Madrid. They are dissatisfied with Atletico Madrid's conservative style of play and believe that Atletico Madrid should play against Barcelona in an upright manner.

Of course, they may be dissatisfied with the score, just another way of saying it.

Other media analyzed the game in the first half from a tactical and play perspective, and came to the conclusion that "Atletico Madrid's defense was very good, and Barcelona lost the ball with a defensive error."

This sentence can cover the first half.

For the second half, media analysis believes that Atletico Madrid will definitely continue to strengthen its defense. For them, "this is the best choice."

The Madrid media are optimistic.

Atlético de Madrid was suppressed by halftime, but the score was dominant, which shows that Wansheng's tactics are correct. For the game, whether it looks good or not is second, and the key is to win. At this point, Atlético de Madrid did a pretty good job.

So the Madrid media also began to look forward to how to praise Atletico Madrid after the victory over Barcelona. (To be continued ~^~)
