Chapter 60 Quick Free Kick

There is another name for a free kick, called a "set kick". What is a "set ball"? It is a fixed position ball, such as corner kicks, penalty kicks and free kicks are all set kicks.

Because these balls are sent out after they are set up.

In many people's minds, free kicks often look like this - the player carefully arranges the football, at a distance of 9.15 meters from the football in front, the opposing player carefully arranges the wall, and the referee confirms that both sides are fine , Back off the whistle, and then the free thrower went up and kicked the football.

Indeed, this is the case in most cases.

Even if you don't need a free kick in the middle and back field of the wall, you still need to wait for the opposing player to retreat and then kick it out.

But in fact, there is also a free kick tactic called "free kick fast".

There is no need to wait for the wall to line up, nor does it need to wait for the opposing player to back off.

Now everyone seems to think that free kicks must wait for the referee's whistle before they can be issued, or some people think that direct free kicks need to listen to the whistle, but indirect free kicks do not.

But in reality, this is all incorrect.

Because according to the spirit of the rules formulated by FIFA, free kicks in any way and in any position can be sent directly and quickly without listening to the whistle.

So in terms of rules, free kicks can only be kicked by listening to the whistle, which is a rare case.

For example, if the referee makes it clear that he must wait for his whistle before serving, he will usually point to the whistle after a foul is called and signal the free thrower to listen to his whistle. This cannot happen quickly.

In addition, when the free throw team thinks that the defender's wall is obviously not 9.15 meters away from the ball, it asks the referee to reorganize the wall.

The football was not placed, or it was not placed at the foul location designated by the referee. At this time, even if you are about to send, you will be blown back by the referee.

But in fact, the players don’t know whether the free kick can be taken quickly on the court. When they think about the reason, they can only try their luck. Now kick the football out. If the referee doesn’t blow the whistle, then the bet wins . If the whistle blows. Then take it back and send it again, just losing the chance to catch the opponent by surprise.

But this time, Zhou Yi obviously won the bet!

When Zhou Yi kicked the football out, none of the players on both sides paid attention to the football. Even Freiburg's defensive players are like this, no one goes to watch football.

No one went to see Mark either.

It wasn't until they heard the shouts suddenly remembered from the stands that they realized it.

A group of people turned around and chased Mark and the football.

The Freiburg players who were still surrounding the referee arguing about whether Gotze flopped or whether Solge really fouled did not understand until they saw the referee suddenly running towards their backcourt.

They hurried back to chase. Among them, Thorger ran the hardest.

Because he is a central defender!

And Zhou Yi reported that the kick hit him where he was originally, if he didn't go up to argue. He should have appeared there to block Zhou Yi's pass.

But now... there's a huge void!

※ ※ ※

Mark's speed was not fast, but Zhou Yi's pass was too sudden. So he has plenty of time to catch up with football.

He gritted his teeth and ran to the football.

He knew very well what this opportunity meant.

Who would have thought that his dream would have a chance to come true so soon?

Although it is a youth team game. But it's also Dortmund's jersey anyway!

He caught up with the football, and the pursuers also entered behind him.

After Zhou Yi passed the ball, he didn't run forward like other teammates, but just stood there and watched.

He trusts Mark. It doesn't make sense for the ball to run up by itself.

Under his gaze, Mark had already rushed to the opponent's penalty area. Facing Freiburg goalkeeper Oliver Baumann who gave up the goal again, Mark kicked the goal directly.

As a striker, single-handed ball is easy to play and not easy to play, but the difficulty of bad play has nothing to do with technique, but only with psychology.

Facing the attacking Bowman, Mark was still a little nervous.

But thinking of how Zhou Yi helped him in the past few months, how did he trust himself, how could he let him down at the most critical moment? !

Mark gritted his teeth, fixed his ankle, and hit the football with one kick.

The football sprints across the turf and is the most difficult shot for a goalkeeper to save because they fall slower than they rise into the air.

During the attack, Bowman fell to the football and his hand had already touched the ball. But Mark's kick was so strong that the football broke through Bowman's fingers, just like the wind lifted the curtain.

Then the football rolled into the goal without any suspense...

The ball... scored again!

"Strike! The goal is valid! The goal is valid!" Leif shouted. "Dortmund U19 led Freiburg U19 by two goals in the final of the German Youth Cup! It is really unexpected that the champion team of the German U19 League last season was so vulnerable to Dortmund!"

Leif's words may upset many TV viewers in Freiburg, but he is telling the truth.

"mark--!!!"

Seeing her son scoring a goal, Mrs. Wagner screamed hoarsely, and then her tears burst out uncontrollably. She turned around and hugged her daughter, choking in her daughter's arms.

His own son scored a goal on such an occasion, for a mother, it is like a dream.

When Mark couldn't even play in the Dortmund echelon for many years, she also thought about whether to let her son continue to take football after the age of eighteen. But she also knew that her son was not the material to go to school, he was different from his elder sister Cortana.

As a mother, she was also confused and entangled in how to go about the future.

But now those emotions are gone.

Son scored in the DFB-Pokal final, his professional football career can go on!

Cortana naturally understood her mother's feelings for her younger brother, and seeing her mother crying, all she could do was hold her mother in her arms and pat her on the back lightly.

Next to them, Mark's dad, Wagner Sr., didn't cheer, but stood in his seat and raised his fists high.

Beside them, Dortmund fans cheered excitedly.

When Mark hit the football into the goal, Gotze also got up from the ground. He looked at Mark who was running towards this side with open arms, and then at Zhou Yi.

"Why? Blame me for not caring about you?" Zhou Yi asked.

"Uh, no, the right choice," Gotze said.

The conversation between the two did not continue, because Zhou Yi had already been hugged by the captain Hornshu who rushed forward: "You boy! You are beautiful! Two assists!"

And Mark also rushed back from the front court quickly, and hugged him: "Thank you, Zhou Yi! Thank you!"

Zhou Yi pushed away Mark's mouth that was about to kiss his face, tilted his head and said, "Don't thank me, Mark, this goal is a manifestation of your own ability! How does it feel to score in the German Cup final?"

"Cool!" Mark replied loudly.

After hearing his answer, Zhou Yi also laughed happily.

In the final of the DFB-Pokal, he scored twice with an assist, which is also very cool. There is a feeling of "everything is under my control".

※ ※ ※

After Mark's goal, Yebara jumped out of his seat and slapped him hard.

Steady!

The champion is stable!

Facts have proved that he was right to let these three small young men form a trident combination.

Without these three people, Dortmund might not be able to handle Freiburg so easily. You must know that in the past two seasons, many teams have fallen into Freiburg's high-position pressing tactics.

The Trident just restrained Freiburg's high press.

This is really an unintentional move.

At the beginning, it was just to let them strengthen their tacit understanding, but unexpectedly, it helped the team take the lead in the German Cup final.

After celebrating the second goal, Yebara sat back on the coach's bench and looked into the field.

How to play next is already very easy for Dortmund. Zhou Yi controls the rhythm of the team. Whether it is fast or slow, Yebara believes in Zhou Yi's judgment and leaves it to him.

It's unbelievable to say that Zhou Yi is only eighteen years old, and there are often things that seem childish and immature on and off the training ground, even appearing a little younger than his actual age.

But once in the game, he immediately became calm and calm, daring to take responsibility and take risks.

This transformation really fascinated Yebala.

This may be Zhou Yi's own characteristics.

Skills and experience can be copied, but everyone's temperament is unique and cannot be imitated or copied.

Even though Yebara had only brought Zhou Yi for a few months, he already felt that Ricken was right to bring him to his team.

This kid really shouldn't stay in the U17 for too long, it's a waste for him.

Not only in U17, but also in his own U19, he felt that Zhou Yi's talent was suppressed. If possible, he would rather finish Zhou Yi's season and go to a higher level team, maybe U23, maybe... the first team.

If it wasn't for his physical condition, he wouldn't even have to stay in the U19 until the end of the season...

Yebala even felt that Rickon let Zhou Yi stay in the youth team just to give him time to hone his body, and what he could learn in the youth team was relatively limited.

In terms of accumulating game experience... Yebara has never seen a youth team player who has as much experience as Zhou Yi, or looks so experienced.

Yebara was very surprised when he learned that Zhou Yilai was just an ordinary middle school student player before the Dortmund youth training camp and had not received professional and formal training.

He couldn't figure out why Zhou Yi behaved like this.

In the end, he could only think that there are some geniuses in this world that people just can't figure out. (To be continued.) Enable new URL
