If the performance in training just now only surprised everyone, then the ability of Zuo Lin in front of the goal in his first goalkeeper performance was enough to make everyone fall through the glasses. Zuo Lin didn't know how many movements the goalkeeper had, and he didn't know what the impact of the irregular action was there, he only knew that the goalkeeper's responsibility was not to let the opponent score. Just make sure that the net behind you is empty, maybe that's what Zuo Lin thinks.

Pan Yishi, the main striker of the blue team and the main striker of the youth team, was the first to attack Zuo Lin, a rookie goalkeeper. A long-range shot more than 20 meters from the goal was powerful, and the ball flew straight towards the top left corner of the goal. Zuo Lin easily picked up the ball, but the action was not like a goalkeeper, but like a basketball player receiving a long pass from his teammate's backcourt under the opponent's rebound, Zuo Lin grabbed the ball with one hand, and then pressed the ball into his arms and held it with both hands...... Then, Zuo Lin glanced at the RED team striker Ye Xun, who was walking leisurely in the opponent's half, and threw the ball far away.

The half-hour group competition has become Zuo Lin's performance. The test of Zuo Lin's performance is not only the opponent's 11 people, but even a few defenders on his side. Under the hint of Coach Xue, the captain of the youth team and now the main central defender of the red side, Xian Chi, sent two tricky "own goals" in this short 30-minute group confrontation. forced Zuo Lin to make a difficult action such as a sideways leap. And in these 30 minutes, everyone completely understands that this Zuo Lin probably does belong to the type of genius.

However, Coach Xue's brows furrowed. He knew very well that with Zuo Lin's extraordinary perception and ability of sports, even with his superhuman physical ability, he would become an opponent's nightmare after a little training. However, Zuo Lin chose the position of goalkeeper. Perhaps for Zuo Lin himself, for a team, if Zuo Lin's choice is recognized, there is no doubt that Zuo Lin's ability in other aspects will be wasted, but for a club like Shenbao that has been plagued by goalkeeper problems for many years, and even let the club's high-level Jin Yuan stick no matter how much it works, the desire for a good goalkeeper is beyond everything. Moreover, Zolin can play a role directly in this way, without having to wait until he is familiar with the game of football and the tactical style and tactical system of the whole team.

Coach Xue glanced at the assistant coach who was also contemplative, and the two looked at each other, and it suddenly became clear that everyone was thinking the same thing. Coach Xue shouted, "Zuo Lin, come here." ”

"You have a good rest in the evening, and tomorrow morning you don't have to go to the morning training with everyone. I'll ask the team doctor to arrange for you to have a physical examination and then give you a systematic test. ......" Coach Xue patted Zuo Lin on the shoulder, "You will be a good goalkeeper." ”

The assistant coach took Zuo Lin to the players' dormitory and quickly arranged the basic things. At the same time, Coach Xue is in contact with the club's management.

The next day, there was nothing special about Zuo Lin's physical examination, although Zuo Lin's physical fitness was better than his peers in all aspects, but these data did not cause anyone to be surprised. But the results of the subsequent tests were eagerly awaited.

The tests were conducted in a warehouse-turned-test center in a corner of the training base. Installed here is probably the only test and evaluation system in Asia, a system specifically designed to target the limits of goalkeepers. In the open column-free space, a goal is installed on one side, and the ground is covered with plastic turf that is very close to the real turf. White fluorescent paint draws a small no-go line, a no-go line, on the plastic turf. On the turf, in the space between the small penalty line and the penalty area line, there are a total of 14 football ball machines, of which 8 are fixed and 6 are mounted on rails. These ball machines are now manufactured by the world's first-class training equipment manufacturers, using compressed air as the power, and the rubber friction plates that can be controlled are installed in the guide rail of the ball, so that the ball can be shot from 20 to 120 kilometers of ball speed and a variety of simple forms of rotation.

"Zorin, this is a test that our club came up with last year. The test time is 15 minutes, 900 seconds. In those 900 seconds, these serves will shoot 600 balls from different positions and at different speeds, which is 1.5 seconds per ball. Of course, this is only an average, and the time interval is not very stable. This system is designed so that the goalkeeper does not have time to think about it when he sees the ball, and can only rely on the results of his usual training and rely on the movements that have become instinctive to react. At the same time, there is no training, and the intensity of any game can be compared to this system. Our club is now the main goalkeeper in the first team, with 227 saves, 152 of which were saved in the first seven minutes. The youth team, that is, our team, has 3 goalkeepers with 199, 192 and 177 results. You don't have to be mentally stressed, this set of things is used to torture people. I am very satisfied with your performance yesterday, today the head coach of the team, and several heads of the club will be watching in the monitoring room, if you play really well, then from tomorrow, you will not be a member of the youth team, but a member of the first team of Shenbao Football Club, and from the beginning of this season, you will play in the league with the team. ”

Coach Xue, who had a serious expression, said words to tell Zuo Lin not to be nervous, but his every word was undoubtedly putting pressure on Zuo Lin. That's exactly what he wanted to do. Coach Xue feels that what he needs to see is Zuo Lin's performance under pressure, for a person like Zuo Lin, this premature test even if it ends in failure, it does not prove that Zuo Lin is not good, the only thing that can prove is that Zuo Lin is still young. But Coach Xue didn't expect that these words of pressure he exerted did not have any effect. Zolin is not a person who aspires to professional football, at best he is just a teenager who is interested in football as a sport.

Although the door of professional football has been opened to Zorin, just as he can easily step into this door, he can come out at any time in the future without hesitation, without any regrets. Zuo Lin is not completely ignorant of professional football, newspapers, television magazines, and the exposure to newspapers, television magazines, and working at the training base have long made him understand what professional football is like in a world of drunken fans. But all of this means nothing to a druid. A druid needs nature, all they need is some material to keep themselves alive, they are not without desires, but what they ask for is really insignificant to the world.

Standing in front of the goal, Zuo Lin seriously stepped on the artificial turf under his feet. The soft and uniform elasticity of the rubber material made Zuo Lin a little unaccustomed, and even more unaccustomed to the fact that there was no longer the aroma of grass seeds and earth in his nose. Zuo Lin took a deep breath, pulled off his gloves, and then gestured to the monitoring room separated by heavy tempered glass on one side, indicating that he could start at any time.

The cold lights hanging from the ceiling turned on one after another, and the whole space was filled with a kind of paleness. Cameras installed in various corners where the lights are not favored are quietly turned on, and the red dots indicating the recording status are lit up at the same time.

With a long beep from the buzzer, the ball machine on the left shoots the first ball with a bang, marking the official start of the test.

Zolin understood from the beginning that in this kind of test, it is not difficult to catch the ball, but it is a pointless act to waste time and throw the ball away after grabbing the ball, and all saves should be simple and straightforward. However, he still underestimated the limits of this extreme test. The speed of a ball in 1.5 seconds, coupled with the chaotic variety of ball paths, makes the goal range seem so wide. Not only do you have to be simple and straightforward, but you also have to keep your center of gravity while making a successful save, and whether it's successful or not, it's all about the next ball, and then the next ball.

After an initial minute of scrambling, Zolin had adjusted his centre of gravity, and although only 15 of his 40 balls were saved in the first minute, things were improving. As Zuo Lin gradually entered the situation, the people in the monitoring room became more and more surprised by Zuo Lin's performance. Zuo Lin's movements are not standardized at all, but with the instinctive movement of the body, Zuo Lin, who is tall and has long legs, uses his feet more than any goalkeeper, not only because it is easier to stretch his legs to block the ball in the next 3 ways during running, but also because he can not lose his center of gravity, and Zuo Lin's hands are even more powerful in the action of flying the racket. Through the tempered glass, they could all hear the constant thumping sound of the space.

Zolin's performance is getting better and better, the goal seems to have become Zolin's domain, he moves back and forth at an incredible speed and his hitting action can match the rhythm of the action as much as possible. Although from time to time the ball still falls into the net and slides into the track of recovering the ball, it must not obscure the shine of Zuo Lin in front of the goal.

Zuo Lin, who had already focused all his attention on this test, seemed to have the physical strength to squander it wantonly, he could run, pedal, fly, twist on the artificial turf without care, and he didn't care how extraordinary these movements were in the eyes of the professionals in the monitoring room.

Any goalkeeper, or even any ordinary athlete, would break down not only their physical fitness, but also their ankles if they made such a move in the same short period of time. Zuo Lin, on the other hand, did not show any signs of collapse.

The numbers on the counter kept jumping, and finally, at the end of the 900-second timer, Zolin delivered a jaw-dropping result, with 421 saves out of 600 balls. That's almost 200 more than a first-team goalkeeper who doesn't perform well but is basically up to the league. And such a performance, not to mention in a domestic league with a low level, even if it is placed in the world, it is absolutely extraordinary.

Zuo Lin was able to perform like this, of course, because of his quick reaction and strong muscles, but more importantly, his physical fitness could withstand the toss of such an ultra-high-intensity 15-minute test, and he was able to keep himself in the best condition from the beginning to the end, and even with Zuo Lin's familiarity with the test environment and methods, there was a feeling of getting better. It is true that everyone who goes through the test will need a familiar process, the difference is that their physical strength has collapsed before they become familiar.

As soon as the 15-minute test was over, Zuo Lin's tense nerves suddenly relaxed, and he suddenly lay down on the artificial turf. His chest heaved, and his heavy wheezing echoed in the empty space. It's really exciting, Zuo Lin thought to himself. He didn't care how much his performance surpassed someone, how much he outperformed others, and he didn't have the energy to care about other people's affairs when he was able to devote himself to this test. "Maybe you should come and play with this often," Zuo Lin thought to himself.

"Coach Xue, who is in charge of Zuo Lin's contract?" In the monitoring room, Cheng Yi, the general manager of the club, asked, he didn't need to ask the head coach what he meant, what he was thinking about now was to implement the matter of letting Zuo Lin enter the team and enter the league as soon as possible.

"Zuo Lin was recommended by Yan Lao, I agreed to let Zuo Lin train with the team, as for the contract, it seems that it has not been signed yet. Yan Lao asked his secretary to leave a contact information, I see, if you ask in person. Coach Xue naturally understands what the general manager is thinking now. If the contract is not implemented, Zuo Lin's performance to the limit is in vain.

"Well, I'll arrange this. Coach Xue, you arrange for the physiotherapy room to apply cold compresses to Zuo Lin's knees, ankles, shoulders, and wrists to eliminate the fatigue of the test as soon as possible. …… The day after tomorrow, the first team will have to train with the first team on the day they return to base. With two weeks to go, we were able to surprise all our old rivals this time. ”

The head coach Luo Xianjie, who was pondering on the side, didn't know what he was thinking, maybe because of whether the new strong goalkeeper would cause problems in the team, or because of how to deploy the power on the field after having such a goalkeeper...... After Luo Xianjie saw the general manager's gaze, he nodded and said, "No problem, if you can have such a goalkeeper, I will solve other problems." ”

All of a sudden, Zuo Lin, who was originally only a little optimistic about Coach Xue, became the club's secret weapon for the new season, and the treatment of Zuo Lin was also special. Naturally, Zuo Lin did not need to participate in the training of the youth team for the time being, and after enjoying a specially arranged nutritious meal, Zuo Lin was asked to go back to the dormitory to rest and recover his physical fitness as soon as possible. Even Zuo Lin didn't feel tired at all at this time. His mind was full of excitement and reverence for the scene of facing the endless flying soccer balls just now, and he was still secretly speculating about when he should ask Coach Xue to let him go to the testing center to play again. Well, once is definitely not enough. Before you are able to save all the balls, you should keep the test center open to you at all times.

After lying for a while on the bed that was a little too soft for Zuo Lin to get used to, Zuo Lin rolled over and ran all the way to the utility room and dragged out the pipes and other tools, as he had done every day for the past few months, watering and trimming the spare turf......

He didn't have to know that at this time, the general manager of the club was negotiating with Yan Hokusai's fox-like secretary, and Yan Hokusai's other secretary was implementing a reliable and able to protect his interests for him, and he didn't have to know that at this time, the head coach was on the phone with the coach who was training thousands of miles away to communicate the atmosphere in the team, and he didn't need to know that the video of his morning test had been packed in a lockbox and sent to the chairman of the club for inspection, and the solemnity of treating the tape was like escorting a state secret document……
