Chapter 18: Group Confrontation! above
"Those who fail the cultural class will not be allowed to participate in any youth (junior) team competition!!" Mario left the training ground. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The body is so tired! Now, the heart is also tired.
"I still don't understand Portuguese, and I'm a month late. I can't cope with Portuguese classes, social studies, nature classes, etc., just because of ......" Wu Qi was under a lot of pressure when he thought about it. He dragged his tired body and walked towards the classroom.
Wu Qi did not know that although São Paulo is the richest city in Brazil, it is also the city with the largest gap between the rich and the poor. The city of São Paulo is home to more than 10 million inhabitants and the suburbs to more than 10 million. Unlike the highly modern urban areas, the quality of life in the suburbs of São Paulo is very different from that of the urban areas.
Although Brazil is a football kingdom, it is not as popular as everyone thinks. In Brazil, the cities with developed football are basically divided among the southeastern states. Among them, Rio alone is home to nearly half of the country's famous clubs. Due to the huge gap between the rich and the poor, the Brazilian government had to order the strict implementation of the cultural education of the young players. Brazil's successive champions have come from the slums, which has inspired more poor children to follow suit. Education is very important in the face of the wide-ranging Brazilian football scene.
The first period is a math class, although the language spoken by the teacher seems to be understood, but Wu Qi is quite familiar with the equations on the blackboard. Wu Qi did not expect that in Brazil, fourteen or fifteen-year-old students are still learning to apply the substitution method. For example, tell an unknown and find the unknown by two equal equations. This couldn't be simpler for Wu Qi. Taking this opportunity, Wu Qi, who already had a little foundation in Portuguese, quickly learned terms related to mathematics.
"Hey, Wu, your name is Wu, right?" a voice came from behind.
Wu Qi looked back and saw that it was the partner who asked him last night, his name was Sintani. In the morning training, Sintani's results were very good, and Wu Qi was very impressed by him.
"Show me the question. Sintani said.
Wu Qi looked at the teacher and picked up the entire exercise book to show Sintani.
Jingle .......
Today's session is over and the young players are resting for a while to get ready for the training pitch.
"Hey, thank you today" Sintani specially partnered with Wu Qi to do stretching exercises together.
"Hehe, it's a gesture. Don't care. Wu Qi was actually quite surprised, he didn't expect that Brazil, thousands of miles away, had a much simpler curriculum for the same age group than in China.
"Be careful tonight, Mario is going to start sifting through people. Sintani said.
"What, who are you screening?" Wu Qi didn't understand the word screening, so he expressed it to Sintani in a different way.
The old man said that the screening will be carried out throughout the month, and those who pass can enter the junior team to participate in the competition. Today is the thirty-first day, and he must be ready. Sintani continued.
"But I only came yesterday, so I counted?" Wu Qi had an extremely ominous premonition.
"Mario is an extremely demanding old man, and he has gone many players before you. He often does a quiet comparison without any hints, and he won't tell you any results unless you're favored. We've all got the hang of it. If you want to stay here, you'll have to deal with all the last-minute situations. You're quite unlucky!" Sintani sympathized with Wu Qi.
"I'll go!" Wu Qi couldn't help but scold, but he was still puzzled, "What about the people who weren't chosen?
"The Boys' Team won't fall?!I'm telling you, don't think the Boys' Team is so easy to mess with. Now that there is a shortage of positions in the junior team, Mario will look for someone to go up, and the corresponding person will be put down. If you can't find the right one, then pick the best one among us and try it, you may be forced to play as a midfielder, a defender or even a goalkeeper! Our training camp is actually a reserve within a reserve! How many people stay in training camp until they are in their twenties and still have no games to play!" Sintani seems to have done a lot of homework.
I thought that the competition would be fierce, but I couldn't imagine that the rules were more cruel than the competition! Wu Qi thought about the 3,000-meter test in the morning, and he estimated that he would at least be in the middle. In terms of skill training, almost everyone is very proficient in crossing obstacles. Looking at the past, Wu Qi believes that there are at least 10 or more people, and their comprehensive strength is stronger than him. Thinking about this, Wu Qi was unusually afraid.
"Today, we're going to have a group confrontation. The losing team will have a strength boost. Mario didn't reveal anything about the screening staff.
When you want a position, it's a bit of a seniority, Wu Qi is late, as long as he gets to the position of the back waist. He was on the same team as Sintani, in the blue, opposite the orange jersey.
"Look out for the number eight and the number 24, the midfielder is going to face them directly. They're too fast to stop them, and we're all going to suffer tonight. Of course, I'll come back often to help. Sintani reminded Wu Qi.
In Wu Qi's opinion, Sintani is relatively outstanding among everyone. However, he also seemed to be nervous, which shows how strong his opponent is.
The confrontation begins!!
At the beginning, the two sides were engaged in a fierce scramble in the midfield!
Different from the strict tactical literacy of European players, unbridled creativity is the characteristic of South American football, and most of these ideas come from the way of playing folk football. All of them are from South America, and it is clear that they are well carrying on the tradition.
Despite this, Wu Qi kept a cool head during the game. He never takes his feet lightly, and he only surrounds and does not grab for defense, trying to test the opponent as much as possible. In the process of fierce competition between the two sides, Wu Qi retained his physical strength well.
The opponent's No. 8 passed through the midfield through a two-on-one and faced Wu Qi directly. Wu Qi remembered Sintani's reminder and didn't dare to rush to grab it. No. 8 actually rushed to Wu Qi at this time, and it seemed that he didn't take him seriously at all. This was somewhat unexpected by Wu Qi, when he was studying in China, people who were familiar with him were afraid of Wu Qi. However, this time, the opposite No. 8 actually challenged Wu Qiqi in this way.
Beep!!!
Wu Qi gently pulled and put No. 8 down. Although No. 8 was a little unhappy, Wu Qi hurriedly apologized.
Of course, Wu Qi was also verbally warned by Mario.
"He was so fast just now that he didn't know which foot to stretch out when he flashed in front of him. Judging from the actions of catching, dribbling, and starting, he has no loopholes. On the contrary, I can't keep up with the speed......" Wu Qi was very devastated.
The opponent's free kick was taken, and the two sides soon entered another round of contention!
Due to the heavy concentration of troops in the middle lane, the other side has not found a suitable breakthrough for the time being. The other party's No. 24 stepped back a little and signaled for the return to be reorganized. However, at the moment of the return pass in front, a blue light passed by and intercepted the ball!
Wu Qi, cut off the ball in the front court!
