Chapter 15: Breaking Goals

a.

In 2007, the national top sixteen of the German University League kicked off. The Gelsenkirchen University of Applied Sciences was lucky. It was at home against the Free University of Berlin. The strength was already dominant, and with the advantage of the home court, the balance of victory and defeat seemed to be More and more inclined towards the home team.

During this week, Zhou Tiancheng's set-piece skill has made great progress, more precisely, it has risen like a rocket. The set ball within 30 meters around the top of the penalty area has reached 90% certainty. Even Coach Feibitz was amazed by this speed, and even joked that the "Chinese speed" was really not covered.

With the help of the system, Zhou Tiancheng also gradually finalized his way of setting the ball and taking the penalty. Among the three methods mentioned by Coach Feibitz, he still has more experience with the Beckham-style full moon scimitar. He still can't do the delicate arc of Beckham with every kick, but his legs are very strong, which is his advantage as a defender, so Zhou Tiancheng's set-pieces take both technique and strength. route.

And Zhou Tiancheng's hard training in the past two weeks has also stimulated Jiang Hao and Ming Tao, who have been with him day and night, and they also devoted 100% of their energy to training. Especially for Jiang Hao, he still has higher pursuits in the following games-at present, Jiang Hao has scored ten goals personally, won the top scorer in the divisional competition, and is also on the national scorer list of the entire German university league , also ranked second with only one goal difference, and has every chance to hit the Golden Boot of this year's National League.

As for Ming Tao's goalkeeper position, as long as there are no major ups and downs, it is good news for the team.

In the past few days of training, Coach Feibitz's mood has improved a lot, his tone has softened, and a smile has begun to appear on his face. The state of the three directly determines the success or failure of the team's offensive and defensive ends of the entire central axis. Now Zhou Tiancheng's defense is as stable as ever, and he has also developed offensive attributes. Jiang Hao has also regained his shooting feeling, and Ming Tao's state is also within expectations. Inside. Coach Feibitz has even started to focus on the longer-term game after the next game.

As the game approached, the system also experienced a wave of presence. On the afternoon of the game, when Zhou Tiancheng was warming up for training, Fabio Nesta issued a second task to him.

Task 2: Complete a set kick and score directly in this game.

Mission description: The purpose of improving the ability is to use it in actual combat, otherwise it is meaningless, the host please work hard to apply what you have learned.

Task reward: Speed ​​ability value +10, training speed doubled.

After Zhou Tiancheng received the task, he quickly adjusted his set-piece ability and took a look.

The results show that this ability value has reached 60 at present. In just two or three weeks, Zhou Tiancheng's ability has been raised to this level

At the same time, compared to before, he wondered why the system was so straightforward this time and announced the rewards directly.

Fabio Nesta said: "After completing the first mission, the system learned about the host's feelings in a timely manner, so improvements were made this time, and the rewards were announced in advance, which can better motivate the host to work hard on the field."

Zhou Tiancheng couldn't help snapping his fingers, the rewards from the system this time were indeed very practical for him. He is well aware of his shortcomings on defense, and he is not immune to the common problems of slow turns and slow recovery of big guards. On the platform of the college league, the strength of opponents is limited, and they will not be used in a targeted manner. But Zhou Tiancheng is someone who regards the professional arena as his goal!

Watching the five major leagues all year round, he knows exactly what kind of arena it is, and his shortcomings will be infinitely magnified on such a stage, and he can't let it go.

If it was just a dream to play professional football before, after getting the system, he felt that he already had a bunch of keys in his hand, and he only owed a windfall, and he had the opportunity to open the door of professional football.

...

In this game, although the Free University of Berlin still wanted to fight hard in the away game, the fight was fierce,

Consciously and actively looking for physical confrontation, but the midfielder of Gelsenkirchen University of Applied Sciences is also a tough guy, and he is not afraid of head-to-head. And in the match against Dortmund University of Technology, they were held down most of the time and won in the end. Gelsenkirchen University of Applied Sciences added a lot of confidence to every player on the field.

Sitting at home, the Gelsenkirchen University of Applied Sciences naturally took the initiative in possession of the ball on the field. Although the opponent put up a 4-5-1 formation today, the two layers of defense are well-structured, but it is inevitable that there will be some sparseness, especially Gail The pressure exerted by Senkirchen University of Applied Sciences is also great, and it is impossible for the distance between the opponent's midfield and the defense to not have a little loophole. The home team's first goal was to seize the momentary disconnection between the opponent's defense and the midfield. Click to follow up and outflank the goal.

Less than 20 minutes into the game, Gelsenkirchen University of Applied Sciences took the lead. Coach Fabitz smiled relaxedly. The game was not unexpected and was developing in the direction he expected.

Conceding the ball early, on the contrary, forced the opponent to not always hide and defend, but to attack to find opportunities, but in turn, Gelsenkirchen University of Applied Sciences can wait for work, catch the opponent's counterattack mistakes, and then counterattack in turn.

The effect of this strategy is obvious. The opponent suffered a big loss once, and has become a frightened bird. As long as the Gelsenkirchen University of Applied Sciences steals the ball in the frontcourt, the nearby players will immediately foul without mercy.

The thinking of the visiting team's defensive players is understandable. It is better to give the home team a set kick in the frontcourt than to fall twice in the same pit, and if you lose another goal, you may not be able to get up.

Zhou Tiancheng's eyes lit up when he saw a set kick around the penalty area in the frontcourt. He had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time.

Jiang Hao had already set up the ball, but when he saw Zhou Tiancheng approaching from one side of his face, he walked aside with a smirk and said, "Brother Cheng, come here."

Apparently he is worthy of being an iron buddy, Jiang Hao knows very well that Zhou Tiancheng must be waiting for this opportunity to show his skills after working so hard to even set the ball.

The opponent's goalkeeper looked very nervous, because Zhou Tiancheng was so tall that the human wall was useless in front of him, he was half a head taller than the human wall.

And from Zhou Tiancheng's expression, he couldn't tell what he would do next.

The referee whistled and Zhou Tiancheng made a run-up.

"boom!"

The ball was released, and the three players on the opposing wall jumped at the same time. The player in the middle jumped the highest, but Zhou Tiancheng used his inner instep to catch the ball, and spun out an arc, sticking to the player on the far right of the wall. Jump out.

Zhou Tiancheng calmly copied the footwork that imitated the "Bezier arc" in training. Coach Feibitz outside the court could see the overall situation better and couldn't help clenching his fist excitedly.

The opponent's goalkeeper reacted very quickly, stretching his body to the extreme in the air, but Zhou Tiancheng has trained so many times with the system, this kick is completely at a high professional level, the opponent's goalkeeper can only do his best. As for the result, he is powerless to change it.

The ball stuck to the left goal post and went straight into the dead corner, 2:0.

Zhou Tiancheng almost sealed the victory for the team. At the same time, he became the first defender to score in two consecutive games in this year's league.
