Chapter 564

Of course Yang Yang couldn't take a free kick as a penalty.

In fact, no one can do this, even the legendary Zola, who has a free kick success rate of 35%, can't do it, because the Italian legend is at most three goals and one.

Although I haven't seen the official statistics, the shooting percentage of top free-kick free-kicks like Juninho and Mihajlovic should be in the early twenties, that is, five into one. Baker Ham will be relatively low, probably around fifteen to twenty.

Juninho's strengths lie in the versatility of his free-kicks, and he's almost unrestricted by angles, except for the front of the box that everyone is proficient at, he can even take kicks near the corners, and he can hit more than A super long-range free kick from 35 meters away.

This is the terrible thing about Juninho's free-kick stunt.

Yang Yang is only just getting started. After more than two months of hard training, he has learned a little bit, but in terms of hit rate, he is not yet ranked.

Of course, this group of Liverpool players is obviously not much better.

...

In the first round, at this point outside the left corner of the penalty area, each player made three penalties. Aurelio had the worst performance, missing all three of his kicks.

Xavi Alonso faced the goal twice, but failed to create a threat, Gerrard once was slightly higher, once created a threat, and once directly hit the wall, which is similar to Xavi Alonso Half a catty, even slightly better.

Yang Yang made threats all three times, with high stability. The first kick scored directly, the second kick he suddenly took a short corner, and Reina was caught off guard, the result was a little wide, and the third He still took a penalty in the near corner, and also made a threat, but was saved by Reina.

Judging from the competition of the first penalty points of the three players, Yang Yang is undoubtedly in the leading position.

Everyone was also a little puzzled. Unexpectedly, Yang Yang really came prepared.

Those teammates who didn't bet on him before, also felt regret at this time.

There is a saying that is quite right, laypeople watch the fun, and experts watch the doorway.

Who can become a professional player in the Premier League, which one is not excellent in footwork? Which is the best football player in the world?

In the eyes of these Liverpool players, some clues can naturally be seen, especially Yang Yang's improvement in free kicks.

Benitez and Yesterdam were also quite surprised, because they did not expect that Yang Yang was really practicing free kicks after two months of absence, and it seemed to be quite fruitful, which has to be said It's a surprising thing.

If Liverpool can really have a free-kick master, it is definitely a big thing.

...

From left to right, there are a total of five points at the front of the penalty area, each of which takes three free kicks.

Judging from the results of the kicks, Yang Yang's stability and threat level have always been ranked first. Among the fifteen free kicks, he scored a total of three goals, one from the far left, one from the left, and one from the center. .

But what is surprising is that Yang Yang tried to use his left foot to punish at the two points on the right and the far right.

On the right, he made one penalty with his left foot, and it was quite threatening, while for the rightmost point, he made three penalties with his left foot, one of which was a threat, and he almost broke the goal, and the other two were out of standard.

This shocked everyone at the scene, because he was not only practicing free kicks, but also wanted to try to shoot left and right, which was really difficult enough.

Gerrard scored two goals, followed by Yang Yang, and Aurelio also scored two goals, one on the center and one on the right. The quality of the two balls is good, but in terms of threatening the ball, he is still not as good as Gerald.

Xavi Alonso threatened the ball a lot, but only one of the fifteen shots hit the center.

This contest finally ended with Yang Yang's victory, which also made the Liverpool players who made a special trip to stay to watch the match very excited. After all, the final result was still very surprising.

Three days away from Shi, when you look at it with admiration.

No one expected that Yang Yang would actually practice a free kick after not seeing him for two months.

Yang Yang was also too happy because he won, and Gerrard, Xavi Alonso and Aurelio took turns to invite dinner.

In addition, Carragher's side has won a lot, and the others have to raise money for treats.

...

"Have you been training hard for free kicks recently?" Gerrard and Xavi Alonso were both a little unconvinced.

They all have their own free throw areas that they are good at. Similar to this kind of outside the penalty area, the free kick competition from five different positions is still relatively disadvantageous to them, but they have to admit that even in the front line of the penalty area, Yang Yang's stability is still very high, and the threat level is also quite large.

"It's been two months of practice." Yang Yang smiled.

"Learn from whom?"

"Everyone learns it. I specially collected a lot of free kick videos of other people, Zola, Carlos, Junior Juninho, Pirlo and Ronaldinho, etc. After I watched it, I was slow Think slowly and learn slowly.”

Gerrard and Harvey Alonso looked at each other and shook their heads in unison.

Their biggest impression of Yang Yang is not only from his performance on the court, but also from his hard work off the court, which is the fundamental reason for Yang Yang's continuous progress.

"It seems that the position of the number one free kick free-kick in my team is going to be given up." Gerrard said reluctantly.

Xavi Alonso nodded hastily. Judging from the competition just now, Yang Yang is indeed the most lethal free-kick taker in the team. It is only natural that he will take the penalty.

"Don't be kidding, I'm not good for the time being. At most, I'll play a deputy for you. Get familiar with it first." Yang Yang said with a smile.

He is not humble either. After all, Gerrard has always been the team's number one free-kick free-kick taker.

Besides, this kind of thing still has to be approved by the head coach.

"However, I still have to invite you to eat." Yang Yang changed his words and smiled.

And when he was about to walk to the locker room, he happened to see Aurelio's resentful eyes, as if he was saying, I am so good to you, how can you bully me like this?

This suddenly made Yang Yang feel even more happy.

…………

…………

Yang Yang returns, Liverpool is full for the first time in the new season.

Benitez also immediately embarked on the final preparations before the season.

In the last ten days, he and the coaching staff have to adjust the players' status as soon as possible to prepare for the first round of the new season, a visit to Birmingham and an away game to Aston Villa, which is a tough team and a new season. The premiere, not to the point.

A week before the start of the new season, the Community Shield, known as the Premier League outpost, also ignited the war.

League champion Manchester United and FA Cup champion Chelsea ended up in a one-to-one draw, but in the end, Manchester United defeated Chelsea in a penalty shootout and successfully won the new season's Community Shield.

This game has a strong warm-up nature and has little substantive significance, but after the game, many media began to mention the so-called Community Shield curse.

That is, the team that wins the Community Shield in the new season often misses the league championship.

Ferguson, of course, scoffed at this, but Mourinho's Chelsea is also ambitious, and Liverpool, who only finished second in the league last season, are also ambitious to make a comeback this season.

Since there was the European Cup in 2008, and the European Cup started in early June, the national leagues have to leave enough time for European teams to prepare and adjust, so this season's national leagues have to tighten their schedules.

The Premier League has also entered a one-week double match from the very beginning. From August 11th to the beginning of September, a total of five rounds of the league will be played, and Liverpool, as the Champions League champion, will have to play another European Super Cup halfway through the competition. very large.

For the new season, Liverpool are full of confidence.

The Champions League last season greatly improved the team's morale and fighting spirit, and also made everyone in Liverpool more confident, believing that the team can perform better in the Premier League and the Champions League in the new season.

Before the start of the season, Yang Yang accepted an interview with Liverpool's official website. He publicly stated that the team's goal for the new season is the league title. He believes that Liverpool already has the strength to challenge the league title.

"After last season's Champions League, I believe that everyone in the team is full of confidence, and we will attack the league title that has been away for nearly 20 years."

"Of course, I know it's hard, but because it's hard, we're all going to work harder and be more focused."

"Although it has only been a few days since I returned to the team, I have seen a high-spirited fighting spirit, strong self-confidence, and expectations for the new season from every teammate. We are a united team. I believe We will do our best in the new season and achieve satisfactory results.”

As for whether he can continue the excellent performance of last season, Yang Yang expressed that he has enough confidence.

"Just continuing the performance of last season, I don't think it's enough. I'm only 20 years old. After October, I'm only 21 years old. I think I still have a lot of potential to tap, so I won't be satisfied. Given the status quo, I hope to perform better and show a better state to repay the team and the fans."

Yang Yang didn't say it explicitly, but he knew very well in his heart that the selection of the World Player of the Year and the European Ballon d'Or is at the end of the year, so in the next three or four months, his performance is also a very important reference factor.

He needs to continue his excellent performance during this period.

Therefore, during his stay in China, he has been training hard according to the training plan that Winston Bogard tailored for him. During the Asian Cup, he was not in the best condition, and his goal is the new season.

"There is a saying in my hometown that a man should be cruel to himself, and he should force himself to death."

Yang Yang said lightly.

The original words here are a saying in his hometown. Before the age of forty, men must force themselves to death, which means to remind young people to dare to fight and not to be scruples.

"Last season I scored 25 goals in the Premier League, and my goal for the new season is to go one step further, to get more than 30 goals or more, I think I can do it, and I will definitely try my best to do it. !"
