Chapter 102 A Seamless New Season

Barrios, who had been wandering around the center line all this time, saw Shaheen looking up to him and swung his left foot at the same time, thinking that Shaheen was going to make a long pass to him this time, so he first moved sideways along the center line, and then suddenly changed Running to the fold line to the front field!

At this time, he turned his head to watch the football, but saw Zhou Yi swinging his foot and making a long pass.

He was taken aback—why did football fall to Zhou Yi's feet again?

If he hadn't just started, it wouldn't be easy to brake in an emergency, and Barrios would have wanted to stop immediately, because he knew that this meant that he would have to run in vain again...

Zhou Yi is not good at long balls, this point does not need to wait until this game, in the previous team training, Barrios is very clear.

But I have already started to run, so it is not good if I just give up halfway.

Barrios didn't slow down, and ran towards his original goal.

Behind him, the football is in the air, spinning towards him.

When approaching Barrios, the football fell and landed not far in front of Barrios.

Barrios didn't expect the ball to land so well. He accelerated a little and stopped the ball with a lift of his foot!

After stopping the ball, Barrios looked up and found that he was not far from Freiburg's goal, and there was only a Freiburg central defender and a goalkeeper in front of him.

This could not have been a better opportunity!

"Zhou Yi's long pass!" Duan Xin shouted when Zhou Yi passed the ball, but he didn't really have any hope in his heart.

But when he saw that Barrios stopped Zhou Yi's pass, he was startled, and then shouted: "Beautiful long pass! Precise long pass! He found Barrios accurately! This is a great opportunity for Dortmund to fight back!"

Marcel Leff also shouted in the commentary: "Zhou Yi's long pass is very accurate! Dortmund has a great opportunity!"

The Freiburg fans cheered and booed over the Magstadion.

The rest of the Freiburg players were desperately fighting back.

Zhou Yi didn't run up again. At this time, Barrios was too far away from him. With his physical fitness, he couldn't do anything by running up, and it was just a waste of energy.

He chose to look behind,

Watch what Barrios does with the ball he passes him.

Barrios stopped the ball and took two steps forward. But maybe because of his physical decline after playing for more than 70 minutes, he did not choose to break through the defender. But just made a fake move. After shaking the angle, he shot directly outside the penalty area.

But with this kick, Barrios' shot was slightly off-standard, and the football ended up going over the crossbar...

"Oh!!" Duan Xin yelled regretfully. How much he hopes that Zhou Yi's long pass can cause a goal!

You must know that this is a rare opportunity for Zhou Yi to pass the long pass accurately!

It's a pity that Barrios wasted this opportunity.

Being a midfielder may be such a problem. No matter how good your pass is, it may be squandered by your forward teammates.

But there is no way. This is football, mistakes and regrets are part of football.

If you want to make mistakes and regrets better, you can only make yourself stronger. Create more opportunities.

Marcel Leif also felt sorry for Zhou Yi: "What a counterattack opportunity for Dortmund, but Barrios missed it! They could have used this counterattack to overtake the score..."

Barrios, who lost his balance after the shot, lay on the ground and saw the whole process of the football flying over the crossbar. He turned over, covering his face with his hands in regret.

Then he got up from the ground and gave Zhou Yi a thumbs up again.

That's not court etiquette. He was really applauding Zhou Yi's pass.

The pass was really good.

Zhou Yi waved to Barrios, as if he didn't care that he wasted this opportunity.

Shaxin, who was behind Zhou Yi, seemed even more regretful than Zhou Yi. As if the ball was passed by him. Seeing Barrios shoot the football high, Shaheen put his hands on his head.

What a beautiful long pass... what a pity!

※※※

"What a pity!" Buvac outside the court also shouted. "Barios is too hard!"

Klopp shook his head: "He may be bored. Replace him."

Five minutes later, Barrios was replaced by Valdes.

But Zhou Yi. Played the whole game.

In the end, Dortmund shook hands with Freiburg 1:1 in the away game. If Barrios hadn't wasted Zhou Yi's pass, perhaps Dortmund would have taken away three points and ended this ups and downs season with a victory.

But that's football.

Sometimes, it doesn't always roll and fly the way you want it to, it's a little off.

Therefore, in order to prevent football from always being biased at critical moments, more effort is required to train.

After the game, when a Chinese reporter asked Zhou Yi if he felt sorry for Barrios wasting that opportunity, Zhou Yi shook his head and said, "There is nothing to regret."

"But if Barrios scores this goal, you can win this game..." the reporter asked.

"In fact, we still have some other opportunities. If we can also score goals, we don't need to rely on Barrios' goal to win the game." Zhou Yi's answer made the reporter not know how to continue asking.

Seeing that the reporters stopped asking questions, Zhou Yi waved to them and left.

In this way, Zhou Yi ended all his official games in the 209-2010 season.

His season is over.

※※※

But just when Zhou Yi was looking forward to returning home and pretending to be aggressive, Klopp poured cold water on him who had just entered the locker room.

"Hi, Zhouyi." Clopra stopped Zhouyi.

"Hello, coach. What's the matter?" Zhou Yi stopped.

"It's like this... do you have any plans for your vacation?"

"I'm going home."

"Well, you really should go home." Klopp nodded, and then changed the subject. "But can you put off your plans to go home any longer?"

Zhou Yi looked at him in surprise, not understanding what Klopp meant by saying that.

"It's like this. The coaching staff has formulated a special training plan for you, which takes time to complete. This training is used to improve your physical fitness, including physical fitness and strength. We plan to use the vacation time to train you... ..."

"But my physical fitness is getting better. Look, didn't I just play the full ten minutes of this game? And I'm not very tired..." Zhou Yi spread his hands and said, his breathing was very even.

"Yes, but after you have played a game with all your strength now. Can you play the same state for 90 minutes in the next game?" Klopp asked.

Facing Klopp's problem. Zhou Yi didn't know how to answer. He's well aware of his fitness, he really can't, but he doesn't want to admit it publicly, he really wants to go home. From November 2008 to now, a year and a half has passed. He has never been home, and can only see his parents through online video calls.

After the initial novelty of leaving home and coming to Germany, the feelings of missing my parents back home gradually accumulated. It was planned. After the season is over, go home. The result suddenly told him that he might not be able to go home. How can he accept it?

"Next season, we will not only play in the domestic league, but also in the Champions League. But with your current physical fitness, it will be difficult to play 90 consecutive minutes in the league, let alone fighting on two fronts. Or do you want us to Excluding you from the registration list for one of the competitions? So you pick one. Not playing in the league or not playing in the Champions League?"

Klopp used his trump card.

For Zhou Yi, the Champions League is a dream stage. When he was just a student fan, he could only watch the live broadcast of the UEFA Champions League on TV and the Internet. for him. The Champions League is the top stage of the club, and it is the highest honor for a professional player besides the World Cup.

Can play the Champions League? Just thinking about it makes me very excited, how could I give up?

The league must not be given up. The league is the foundation, and how many games are there in the Champions League a year? There are thirty-four matches in the league...

More importantly - why should I choose one and give up the other?

Since neither of them wanted to give up, Zhou Yi might have to accept Klopp's arrangement.

Seeing that Zhou Yi was still hesitant, Klopp lowered his voice and said to Zhou Yi: "Let me tell you some news. Next season, Shaheen will leave."

But Zhou Yi was not surprised.

"You know?" Klopp was a little surprised.

"I guessed it." Zhou Yi said. "Before this game, Nuri suddenly said to me that I should be the main core in this game, and he will be the deputy."

Klopp rubbed his chin when he heard the words: "No wonder..."

The situation seen in the game has all the answers.

"So you know why Shaheen did what he did?" he asked.

Zhou Yi nodded.

"Next season we will be single-core, and you will be the core of the team. If the core of a team can't even start consecutively, such a core and a team with such a person as the core will only be laughed at ’” Klopp said while the iron was hot. "Dortmund, who are fighting on two fronts, needs a core with plenty of physical fitness, so I have to prepare an extra training plan for you in the summer."

After speaking, he looked at Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi was speechless, what else could he say?

Can he say no?

No.

He can't say to the head coach who trusts him: "I'm sorry, I can't be the core, I just want to go home to see my parents, so you should find another expert."

Isn't this nonsense?

Why did I leave my hometown and come to Dortmund, Germany?

Isn't it just to realize your ambition in professional football?

Now the opportunity is in front of me, how can I not seize it?

Under Klopp's gaze, Zhou Yi sighed: "Okay, coach, I will listen to you and stay for training."

Seeing that Zhou Yi agreed to his training plan, Klopp hugged Zhou Yi into his arms excitedly: "I just like a child like you, Zhou Yi! I guarantee that this holiday will benefit you for the rest of your life!"

Zhou Yi was strangled in Klopp's arms... He struggled and said, "But...next summer, coach, you must...let me go home!"

What he said was as pitiful as a prisoner locked in a prison, coupled with his breathless struggle, I really feel pity...

Klopp laughed and patted Zhou Yi on the back, saying, "Of course, no problem!"

So just like that, Zhou Yi's 2009-2010 season is over, but his 2010-2011 season has started ahead of schedule... (To be continued.) Launch a new website
