Chapter 1146 You Are Passing the Ball!
There is a saying in the scouting world that it takes only seconds for a true genius to conquer you.
This is not true at all.
There are rumors that when Arsenal's scouts decided to introduce Cesc Fabregas, they only watched a few passes from him.
Isco also belongs to the kind of genius who can conquer scouts in a few seconds, so he has been the best player since he was a child, from the Malaga amateur team to receive formal youth training, to represent Malaga He has always been the best performer in the Spanish Domestic Invitational Tournament in Canada, which allowed him to receive an invitation from Valencia and move his family to Valencia.
Interestingly, Isco mentioned more than once that in the summer when he joined Valencia, David Silva, another talent of the Bat Corps, just returned from the loan team, and has been out of control since then. The team soared.
"He's the target of all our academy players."
Isco has always been a leader in Valencia's youth academy, he has always been the best and the best, so much so that after David Silva moved to Real Madrid, at the age of 18, he was recruited The Bole Emery valued it, was selected into the first team, and got the chance to play, but it is a pity that there were many young players in the Valencia team that season, and the most popular was Juan Mata.
Realizing that it was difficult for him to get a stable chance to play in the first team of Valencia, his hometown team Malaga extended an olive branch to him. The head coach Manuel Pellegrini was very optimistic about him, so it was logical for Isco to return home. This made the then Valencia coach Unai Emery deeply regretful, because he admired Isco very much.
There is no so-called betrayal in this transfer. The contract termination fee between Valencia and Isco is 6 million euros, but the transfer fee paid by Malaga to Valencia is as high as 7 million euros. Exceeded Isco's termination amount.
After returning to Malaga for two seasons, Isco's value soared several times, not only won the European Golden Boy Award, but also successfully transferred to Real Madrid at a high price of 30 million euros, and even made a big splash at the beginning of this season. Brilliant, overwhelmed his goal David Silva back then and became the main force in Real Madrid's midfield.
No one will deny Isco's talent, just as no one can deny Isco's weaknesses and shortcomings.
The Malaga man is like a combination of an angel and a devil. The key depends on how you use him and when he can be enlightened.
Even in Real Madrid, the whole team, including the coaching staff and management, are full of expectations for Isco, because everyone believes that the 21-year-old Isco is far from mature. During this period, his plasticity is still very strong.
The whole world believes that he will become one of the top midfielders in the world in the future.
But many people don't know that Zidane was one of the people who advocated the introduction of Isco in the summer of 2013.
Real Madrid has a very professional technical team. Every player brought in will be assessed and analyzed by the coaching team and followed for a long time. Isco is no exception. Real Madrid knows his strengths and weaknesses well, but everyone wants to believe that he Changes will be made and he will become more mature.
From Florentino to Valdano, from Ancelotti to Zidane, from Yang Yang to all first-team players, they all think so.
Therefore, when they saw Isco's dexterous, dancing-like steps, throw away Gabi, and dribble towards Atletico Madrid's penalty area with the ball, they were more admirable, but not surprised at all.
Because they all know that Isco has such strength.
But soon, he was caught up by the defender again.
This is not surprising, as he has never been very fast.
Gabi is an experienced veteran. Felipe and Godin are also very experienced and cooperate very well. They will soon form a double-team for Isco and completely block the Malagasy.
Even for Messi, it is difficult to break through the blockade of Atletico Madrid.
Can Isco?
Nobody knows.
Therefore, the best way to deal with it is to pass the ball before the double-team is completed.
Especially when Carvajal on the right has quickly plugged in and provided a stable line for the ball.
The question is, can Isco see it?
This Malaga native who always keeps his head down and takes the ball, can he raise his head and take a look at his surroundings and his teammates?
Both Ancelotti and Zidane became more nervous as Isco moved closer and closer to the penalty area.
"Hurry up, hurry up, hurry up." Ancelotti couldn't help repeating.
Atletico Madrid's defensive players are very smart. Once they are blocked, the passing line between Isco and Carvajal will be cut off by Felipe, so Real Madrid's No. 23 should grab the ball before the block is completed. Pass it out.
But he is still carrying, has been carrying.
"If you don't pass, there is no chance!" Zidane gritted his teeth and shouted, "Hurry up and pass the ball, idiot!"
He used to be the world's top passing master, and he captured the passing line far better than everyone else, so he naturally knew clearly when the best time to pass the ball was.
But in his opinion, Isco did not seem to capture this opportunity.
Or it should be said that he didn't seem to think about passing the ball.
"Damn guy, pass the ball!" Ancelotti has already started cursing.
But on the court, Isco was still leading, and continued to lead, keeping his head down.
It was as if in his eyes, in his world, there was only the ball under his feet.
…………
…………
Yang Yang yelled for Isco to pass to the right, but he knew that Isco couldn't hear it at all, and even if he heard it, he would definitely not be able to react.
The court changes rapidly, and everything can only be handled by yourself, or even by instinct. There is no extra time for you to slowly think about the best choice.
This is why sometimes, when fans watch the post-match highlights, they often feel that the players' reactions and decisions at that time are stupid, and even the players themselves feel stupid, but there is no way, the changes and action frequency on the court are too fast There is no way to think at all, and naturally there is no way to say what is right and what is wrong.
It was as if Isco had been dribbling the ball and who knew what would happen next?
Maybe he really brought it out?
Maybe he earned a penalty in the penalty area?
Maybe……
There are so many possibilities.
As a teammate, as the big brother who has guided Isco, what Yang Yang can do is to be prepared. He believes that Isco can bring the ball out or pass it out, so he is also running and ready to respond at any time.
This is a kind of trust!
Without this minimum level of trust, cooperation on the football field would be out of the question.
Although it was only a few days, he really believed in Isco.
Regardless of whether he can pass the ball this time.
…………
…………
From getting rid of Gabi, but being caught up by Gabi again, Isco became more and more aware of his situation.
He is a very smart person, otherwise, he would not be able to come to Real Madrid today.
And when he dribbled forward all the way, especially when he was overtaken by Gabi, when he saw Godin in front of him, many, many past memories appeared in his mind, flashing like a fleeting image. In his mind, the final frame was fixed in front of the bar that Yang Yang talked to him that day.
"I believe that as long as you are willing to change yourself, as long as you are willing to work hard, you will become the best midfielder in the world!"
This is a sentence that Yang Yang said to him, but it rang in his ears at this moment.
He suddenly remembered that he should make a change.
How should that change?
The former self must have continued to lead forward. The more people there were, the more excited he was. Success, that sense of accomplishment, that kind of excitement fascinated him, and even became an addiction.
But he had to change himself.
He realized that he couldn't do this anymore.
What should I do then?
pass the ball!
How to pass it on? to whom?
All of this information flooded into Isco's mind in an instant, and then the Malagasy raised his head.
At this moment, he was like a frog that just jumped out of the well, feeling suddenly enlightened.
He suddenly realized that the sky turned out to be so big.
He saw Yang Yang who had been waiting in the penalty area for a long time, he saw the Atletico Madrid defender who was double-teaming him, and he saw Carvajal who raised his hand on the right and was about to sprint forward.
Everything is like a fan, presented in his field of vision.
Almost the moment he raised his head, he had the urge to cry.
He suddenly realized how stupid he was to carry the ball with his head down all these years.
In the past, he was like a frog squatting at the bottom of a well, only seeing the sky the size of the well mouth.
But when he raised his head, he saw infinite possibilities.
Almost without thinking, he rushed the ball to the right before Felipe was in position.
The Brazilian left-back was caught off guard and tried to stop it, but it was just a little bit short.
Yes, as long as it is one second slower, no, as long as half a second, Isco will not be able to pass the ball.
But with this pass, Atletico Madrid's defense was completely messed up.
Carvajal strode forward directly, catching up with the fastest speed, and directly passed the ball with a low kick.
After Yang Yang shook off Miranda, he went straight behind Godin, pushed the ball in front of the goal easily, and sent the ball into Atletico Madrid's goal again, three to two!
hat trick!
But after Yang Yang scored the goal, he didn't choose to run to the sidelines to celebrate. Instead, he rushed directly to Isco who was standing on the penalty area line. courtside.
"Hahaha, brat, are you playing heartbeat? I almost thought you didn't pass it on!"
Carvajal and other teammates also rushed over, and they all praised Isco's pass just now, thinking that his pass was thrilling, and told him to pass earlier next time, don't be so intimidating.
It's too thrilling, isn't it?
Isco's eyes were a little red.
He felt that he had just experienced an extremely unreal thing.
That wasn't the world he was familiar with, but it seemed to open a door for him, behind which was a wider world.
