Chapter Thirty-Five: Finally a Goal!
Put away the frenzy of the World Cup, the youth army of São Paulo still has league tasks on their shoulders.
This time he went away to challenge Gremio, and Mario led the team to set off three days early.
Located in the state of Rio Grande do Sul, Gremio is the oldest football club in Brazil and has a history of more than 100 years. Ronaldinho, who is in full swing at the moment, was once a Gremio player. There's also the famous World Cup-winning coach, Scolari, who started his coaching career.
Unlike June in the Northern Hemisphere, Brazil is now in winter. With an average altitude of more than 600 meters above sea level, Rio Grande do Sul is already cold.
Brazil is second only to the United States in terms of land area, with a large latitude span and a large difference in climate between the north and the south.
Therefore, Mario had to lead the team to arrive early to get the players ready.
Especially Sintani, who has not been recovering from injury for a long time.
When he arrived at the station, Wu Qi was the first to come to the training ground after cleaning up.
Wu Qi was almost the first to arrive at the training ground to help the staff set up props, carry balls, and push goals. His relationship with the logistics staff has always been very harmonious.
Although he didn't suffer much when he was a child, Wu Qi, who is introverted on the outside, is still very independent and self-disciplined. You can see how clean the dormitory is, in stark contrast to the dirty mess of other young players.
"Wu, you're here to help again!" Mario greeted Wu Qi.
"Hmm. Wu Qi replied.
"You've been here for a year, are you homesick?" said Mario's tone in a non-training setting, like an uncle next door.
"Yes, of course. Wu Qi didn't think twice.
"When the league is over this year, there will be a little holiday for about a month, and you can go back and reunite with your family. Mario said with a smile.
"Really?!" Wu Qi was very happy when he learned about it.
A year is not a long time, but for Wu Qi, who is in a foreign country, there are too many things to confide in. In the past year, I have gone through a lot of pain and torture to finally be able to play in the youth team. He can't wait to share all of this with his family.
Wu Qi's mood at this time was like that of a student who was immersed in hard study when he learned about the holiday, and all his troubles were left behind. With Bentou, even if it is just this, it is very satisfying.
When you land, you train, and you have endless power.
Wu Qi, under his calm appearance, is still a child after all.
The scene of the competition.
Wu Qi returned to the forward position today, and the formation was still 4231.
Both sides are ready!
Begin!
After this period of actual combat practice, Wu Qi's ability on the field has been greatly improved. It has also become more and more mature in terms of passing and control, and has become the main point of attack in the current Sao Paulo team.
After Sintani's return, his strong style of play constrained the opponent, giving Wu Qi a large area of room to move in the front court.
Despite being sidelined for two weeks, Sintani has been working hard in the dark without slacking off. After coming on the field, he was quite active.
Soon, Wu Qi and Sintani played an efficient combination in the front court. Unfortunately, Sintani's shot went just wide of the goal.
"Ahh
Although the weather was cold, Wu Qi had already entered the state.
Wu Qi is like Doraemon digging out props, three passes and two downs can make a chance. His threat up front was huge, and the opposing coach frowned.
"This kid, the only restriction on him now is that he is too young. Otherwise, it is completely possible to play in the first team. Mario thought silently.
Mario was optimistic about Wu Qi, initially because of his understanding of football, and then gradually discovered the teenager's resilience in the face of adversity. It's just that in just one month, Wu Qi has the potential to take over the stick of Jingduo. This was completely unexpected by Mario, after all, Wu Qi was only fifteen years old.
"Beautiful!"
Wu Qi was twenty-five meters away from the goal, and when he saw that no one was grabbing, he decisively pulled out his foot and shot at the goal.
The ball went straight into the top right corner of the goal, and the goalkeeper couldn't reach it.
One to zero.
After the goal, Wu Qi was very excited, he spread his arms to the fullest, and ran around the court.
São Paulo is already showing signs of recovery after a month of decline.
Whether it's at the back or up front, they are full of confidence at this time.
The second half continued, with Sao Paulo still in control.
Soon, Sintani's goal extended the score to 2-0.
This attack still came from Wu Qi's planning.
The game is over.
São Paulo lost 4-0.
Wu Qi scored one goal and two assists and was selected as the MVP of the game.
"Coach, has my goal been recorded?" After the whistle, Wu Qi couldn't wait to run to the coaching staff.
"I didn't. Mario waved his hand, a smirk on his face.
"Huh!?" Wu Qi was a little disappointed. He wished his first goal for youth had been recorded.
"The organizers must have recorded it, you go to them. Mario gestured to the podium.
Wu Qi didn't have time to say thank you, and went straight to the rostrum.
The staff on the rostrum are disassembling their equipment and preparing to leave.
"Hello, sir. Excuse me, can you send me a copy of the video of my goal today? ”
The staff heard the green voice behind them and looked back.
"Oh, you're the little boy who scored the first goal just now!" the staff seemed to remember him.
"Well, hehe, I scored the first goal. Wu Qi smiled shyly.
"But I can't give you this video, we have the copyright. "The staff spread their hands and said they couldn't do anything.
"Copyright ......?" Wu Qi looked at the logo of a certain TV station on his shoulder and understood.
Of course, the current Wu Qi will not understand what broadcasting rights are.
'But it was my first goal and I wanted to save him. Wu Qi still didn't give up.
The staff laughed, and he was amused by the persistent teenager in front of him.
"You can watch the news by yourself tomorrow, if you have a camera or something, you can record it however you want. The staff laughed as they talked, and walked away with the equipment.
After walking for a while, he seemed to remember something, and turned back to Wu Qi to say something.
"Just record this sentence, don't say I told you. ”
The staff of this TV station is quite strict.
"How's it going?" asked Mario, pretending to be concerned.
"No, he let me watch the news on my own. Wu Qi looked a little depressed.
"Take it, don't break it for me. I'm going to make a demonstration of him tomorrow!" Mario handed Wu Qi the footage he had already recorded.
In the picture, a teenager has his back to the screen, and a long-range shot is hanging in a dead corner under the siege of everyone.
"Damn, coach, you tease me!" Wu Qi didn't expect Mario to make fun of him.
"Hahaha!" Mario was amused by Wu Qi's expression!
During the night, everyone slept.
Only Wu Qi was still fiddling in front of the computer desk.
"Huh, weird. Isn't there something wrong with this mailbox left by my sister......
Why can't I upload it?
