Chapter Forty-Four Doing Big Things Silently: Ming Tao

Zhou Tiancheng drove to his former alma mater, Gelsenkirchen University of Applied Sciences. He used to come in and out of here every day without any feeling, and when he came back after leaving for a while, Zhou Tiancheng admitted that he really felt a sense of intimacy in his heart.

The security guy at the school gate recognized Zhou Tiancheng and Jiang Hao at a glance. After all, their photos are now hung in the middle of the alumni honor wall, so it's hard not to pay attention. Although routine registration is still required due to rules and regulations, the security uncle showed a smile all the way. After the incident, the security uncle took out a football from the small guard room and asked the two to sign it.

Does it feel good to be chased by others? I am very sure of that. Zhou Tiancheng and Jiang Hao felt a sense of accomplishment at this moment. "Shua Shua" signed two sums, and Zhou Tiancheng asked half-jokingly: "Uncle, we haven't even played in Schalke's first team. Are you afraid that these signatures will be wasted?"

"Hey, don't think that way. Who can tell what will happen in the future? If you really become big stars, it will be difficult to get your autographs. So I will keep this autograph. It may be worth a lot in the future!"

Zhou Tiancheng and Jiang Hao felt very refreshed. If he hadn't been more anxious to meet his former teammates, he really wanted to chat with this uncle.

The two then came to the football field. The school team was preparing for the game in the afternoon. The two watched from a distance for a while. After all, Ming Tao was the goalkeeper, so it was convenient for them to observe.

Half-court offensive and defensive drills are now underway, and the team's offensive players are doing simple shots and saves with the goalkeeper. As I said before, the University of Munich is a champion of German university football. They have played against them for two consecutive years. Without Zhou Tiancheng and Jiang Hao this year, Gelsenkirchen University of Applied Sciences can only stand on the iron barrel and quick counterattack. Allowing the attacker and the goalkeeper to learn from each other can complement each other and stimulate each other's state.

Coach Feibitz was still like a stern overseer, with a whistle in his mouth, shouting loudly from time to time. Zhou Tiancheng sensitively noticed that the old man had more gray hairs on his head. There was a sigh in my heart. He is very clear about the team's offensive power. He and Jiang Hao leave the team. If there are no strong players to replace the freshmen, the team's offensive power will be greatly damaged, but they can reach the national semi-finals again. Coach Feibitz The painstaking efforts behind this?

Zhou Tiancheng couldn't help but sigh in his heart, such unknown youth training coaches should be respected the most. Although their reputation is destined not to be prominent, it is precisely there are tens of thousands of such people that constitute the rapid development of German football. The cornerstone of revival.

The runner-up of the 2002 World Cup and the third runner-up of the last World Cup, the German team was able to quickly recover from the disastrous defeat in the European Cup in 2000. The solid and huge foundation of this football pyramid is precisely people like Coach Feibitz.

"Oh, Xiao Tao is doing well!" Jiang Hao yelled, pulling Zhou Tiancheng's thoughts back to his eyes. Just now, his teammates used a very tricky kick from the top of the restricted area to shoot from a long distance. It was not a small problem, but Ming Tao Quickly swoop sideways, like a cheetah pouncing on food, soaring into the air, the whole person flies directly in front of the ball, firmly pressing the ball under his body.

Jiang Hao praised this save, but Zhou Tiancheng forgot to applaud, he felt a little unreal.

In training, there is often no stimulation from the off-court atmosphere. It is good to be able to perform stably and normally, and it is not easy to perform beyond the level. Could it be said that this kind of difficult save is a normal operation for Ming Tao now? !

Zhou Tiancheng noticed that coach Feibitz just nodded slightly, and he didn't show too much excitement, which showed that Mingtao's performance was within his expectation.

Zhou Tiancheng couldn't help being shocked.

He now has a point of reference. If faced with the same save, could it be so beautiful if replaced by Schalke U19's main goalkeeper Felman?

Zhou Tiancheng thought for a long time, but he didn't have a definite answer, but anyway, even if Fellman could do the same, it was enough to show that Mingtao had made great progress now. After all, the training they received was at different levels.

Moreover, Zhou Tiancheng found that Ming Tao joked with the shooter with rich body language afterwards, and his personality was much more lively than before.

Zhou Tiancheng was in a really good mood. He was really happy for Ming Tao's change.

...

After the team's training interval, the two appeared in front of everyone, and most of the original teammates rushed forward. Of course, Zhou Tiancheng also found a few new faces that he was not familiar with, presumably they were fresh blood added after they left, and his face was also very excited at this time.

Needless to say, they must have often heard the stories of Zhou Tiancheng and Jiang Hao in the team. It is even possible that Coach Feibitz directly used them as role models to encourage the newcomers. Now that they have finally seen the true face of Lushan, it is normal to be excited.

Everyone has too many questions. After all, the two have now entered the professional team system, which is a level they have never been in contact with, so they are naturally curious. On the other hand, Coach Feibitz looked at his former proud disciple with admiring eyes. After everyone dispersed a little, he came over and nodded with satisfaction: "It seems that you have really improved a lot, especially you , Zhou, this physical fitness is not bad!"

Zhou Tiancheng said with a smile: "I am now playing B2B midfielder to strengthen my physical fitness. When I passed the physical fitness level, I was almost exhausted."

Coach Feibitz laughed and said, "It will be fine after passing this test. Norbert is still very good at training young people. But, did the first team let you train?"

Zhou Tiancheng shook his head.

"Well, as I expected, Schalke's first team is not so easy to play...Ming, what can I say, you will be one step ahead of them." Coach Feibitz said suddenly.

Zhou Tiancheng and Jiang Hao looked at each other, confused.

Coach Feibitz narrowed his eyes and looked at Mingtao, "You don't know yet? Ming has performed very well this season, and the Bundesliga Darmstadt Club is ready to sign him. He has already passed half a month ago. Trial training. But it is not the U19 echelon, but directly enters the first team! Although it is the second division, but entering the first team is a real professional player. Zhou, Jiang, you have to work hard!"

Zhou Tiancheng and Jiang Hao were extremely shocked, but Ming Tao hadn't responded at this time, so Zhou Tiancheng immediately showed him a "you're done" expression.

Well, you Xiaotao, you have a tight mouth, and you made a big move here!

"Okay, Ming, you go with them, the three of you have a good chat."

As soon as Ming Tao left the team, the two dragged him aside, and Jiang Hao yelled first: "Yes! Xiao Tao, I can't see it! You actually did something important without telling us, why don't you think we are brothers?"

Ming Tao quickly explained: "Don't get me wrong, you two, I wasn't sure about it before, I wanted to tell you after I signed the contract."

The corner of Zhou Tiancheng's mouth twitched: "It's late now, we all know, you don't plan to talk about what's going on?"
