Chapter 79 Portuguese Super League Champion
"It's four hours before your plane takes off. Where do you want to go? โ
"Turin is famous for its chocolate, there is one of the largest chocolate factories in Europe, maybe you can buy some and take it home?"
"Or would you like to find a place to eat?"
Normally, the kind of conversation that would happen between Domingos and Thunder Wing where only one person said one sentence after another would have been long and short legs there, and Dominguez was listening in silence or didn't want to talk to the kid at all. But today, now, this model of getting along is completely reversed.
After leaving the Stadio Comunale, home of the Torino team, the Thunderwings fell silent.
He is still in that shock and can't return to his senses for a long time.
Before coming to Europe, and even before coming to the Comunale Stadium today, Ray Wing would always refer to these European giants as "arrogant Europeans". But now, he can't say such words anymore.
Before coming to Turin to watch the highlight of the Serie A match, the Turin derby, he always heard that La Liga would be the best league in the world. Because La Liga teams are attacking and they are facing some of the most discerning fans in the world, they want to make the fans who come to watch the game happy enough not only to win the game, but to win the game beautifully. What's even more commendable is that the teams in La Liga, no matter how different the score on the field has been, they will still attack, attack, and attack without hesitation.
For a team with such a tradition, Lei Yi felt awe.
But today, he saw the Turin derby taking place in the city of Turin. It was a great game that made him feel incredibly excited every minute. Whether it is the magnificent offensive of the Torino team, or the exquisite coordination between the main attacker and the scorer, it is so that Lei Yi forgets his identity as a player, and just wants to shout for them like a normal fan. In Lei Yi's opinion, this is already what he has seen in this year...... The best ball game ever!
But what shocked Lei Yi the most for a long time was Yue Yihuang's free kick shot.
If it weren't for the fact that the ball was in front of his eyes at the Komunale Stadium, he would have even suspected that it was a computer stunt.
He'd never seen a shot like it......
Without any spin, it throws a nice arc before reaching the goal, starts to slow down as it approaches the goal, and the path is erratic! Then...... Just when the ball had already flown higher than the crossbar of the goal, it fell sharply...... And as it fell, the erratic and strange path that could only be described as strange with the naked eye became more unpredictable.
That would be a nightmare for all the goalkeepers!
But the man who took the free-kick was not at all excited when he saw that the free-kick he had kicked had been scored in such a way. Even Lei Yi, he couldn't see what kind of expression appeared on Yue Yihuang's face at that time. All he knows is ...... The whole stadium was boiling over his free-kick shot, and when the man waved at the fans in the stadium, the fans actually got up from their seats!! They waved the monochrome flag with the Torino team crest in their hands!! Do they use? A powerful voice reads the lyrics of the Torino team song!! And read it faster than ever!!
After recalling the free-kick and what the home fans did afterwards, over and over again, Ray finally asked:
"Dominguez! You know...... Yue Yihuang's free kick...... How did you kick it out? โ
Domingos: "Basically, it's a very large force that acts in the center of the ball in an instant. The ball can then fly towards the goal without even a hint of spin. But the drag force in the air can make the direction of the ball skewed. In this way, the ball will be offset. As this shift occurs, it will experience more and more resistance in the air, which is why the ball will be more erratic as it gets closer to the goal. โ
Lei Yi: "But...... The arc that was thrown out before the ball faltered! And there's more!! Why does the ball suddenly fall down! It's not an arc! It's a sudden fall! โ
Domingos: "It's a very complicated physics problem to explain, and I'll have to analyze all the forces with you." But what I told you earlier was just a deciduous ball. Yue didn't kick a leaf ball. He was playing the leaf-crushing ball that Brazilian De Licarlo had revolutionized almost twenty years ago. Now there are almost all the people in European football who can kick the ball in the first place, including your friend Enzo, who can also play it. But the only one who can master the Broken Leaf Ball is Yue now. โ
Lei Yi: "That's cool!!? โ
Domingos: "I have to sue you, yes." And now only Yue alone can make the ball produce such a large drift offset, and he is the only one who can control the precise node of the zhรฌ ball when it falls weightlessly. But none of these are the most terrible. Maybe I have to ask you, what do you think are the chances that a player who has mastered the technique of falling a ball will be able to successfully kick a ball and finish the shot when taking a free kick under normal circumstances? โ
Thunder Wing: "Odds...... Will it be small? โ
Domingos: "Yes, in general, around 20%. It's really hard to do that because it's in the center of the ball. However, Yue's success rate of leaf crushing balls can basically be maintained at 60%, and sometimes even higher. In other words, if you give him two free-kicks in a game, he can score at least one goal for the team. โ
Two free kicks...... Can you score at least one!?
Lei Yi knows too well what this concept is!!
This means, of course...... If Yue Yihuang was also at Atletico Madrid in the last game against Atletico Madrid, then they Porto must have been poured five goals!!
It's brutal!
This is so brutal!!
A bad foot and good at scooping free kicks Yolandal! Plus a free kick master Yue Yihuang!!
As long as these two play together, they can save the world!!
Lei Yi, who suddenly realized that he was thinking crookedly again, immediately pulled back his thoughts, he thought about it again and again, and finally asked the doubts in his heart again: "Domingos, broken leaf ball...... How hard is it to learn? โ
Hearing this, Dominguez curled the corners of his mouth and asked, "You also want to learn?" โ
Hearing this, when he was in Brazil before, he was not even willing to practice long-range shooting, and he had always just played the ball as he wanted, and his face was a little red, and he felt that this moment made him feel very embarrassed in front of Domingos, who knew him well. But the long and short legs still nodded.
"If you want to master the Leaf Crushing Ball, it's going to be difficult. De Ricarlo, who created this stunt, is a good player, not only on the pitch but also off the pitch. He also tried to pass on his skills to his team-mates when he was playing for Barcelona. Unfortunately, he didn't succeed. It wasn't until he moved to Turin that his leaf-shattering ball skills were inherited. As far as I know, Yue has been doing what De LiCarlo did, and in recent seasons he has been trying to give his teaching to Hamid, the team's second penalty taker in the team. However, it is clear that you don't just have to work hard to become a free-kick master. Hamid did not learn to crush the leafballs, nor did he fully master the leaf litter. โ
"That's not ...... Would it be a pity? What if no one can learn the Leaf Crushing Ball after Yue Yihuang? โ
Seeing the sullen appearance of the long and short legs, Dominguez smiled. He scooped out a thin, very small book from his coat pocket and handed it to Lei Yi.
"For you."
"It's ......"
Puzzled, he took the book from Domingos's hand, and then Lei Yi saw the name of the book: "The Principle of Leaf Crushing Ball and How to Practice It"
Seeing the title of the book, Lei Yi was startled, and his first reaction was to immediately check the author's signature!! It reads: Brazil Ricaro!! This is the Brazilian who actually created the Leaf Crush Ball that Dominguez mentioned earlier!!
Ray Wing is unbelievable, a player! He would publish such a book! He made it possible for anyone interested in Leaf Crushing Ball to practice it!! No, not only his teammates who play in the same club as him or his children have the opportunity to learn!
It's a ...... Great players!!
Lei Yi couldn't wait to look through the football skills book printed in Portuguese, and then he immediately saw a lot of schematic diagrams, as well as physical analysis!! Long and short legs don't understand that, but that can't stop him from yearning for that wonderful artistic free kick stunt!!
"These schematics...... And the analysis, is it all written by himself? It's amazing! โ
"Nope." It was when Thunder Wing exclaimed that Domingos gave a negative answer: "It is said that the book was written by De Ricarlo's daughter, Miss Resa, with her father." Miss Lesa is said to be gifted in physics and medicine. โ
From Domingos's words, Thunder could tell that this friend of his must have great respect for the daughter of De Ricarlo. The long and short legs didn't feel strange, and even he felt ...... The women who can help write such a book certainly deserve the respect of each and every one of their players!!
And now, he needs to say a good thank you to his Brazilian brother.
"Thank you, Dominguez! Thank you so much for sending me this book! I'll cherish it! โ
Looking at the long and short legs that said this, Dominguez said almost expressionlessly: "I went to the bookstore to buy ice cream just now." Probably only someone like you doesn't even know about such an important football skill. โ
Everything is a long and short leg like this, and an answer like Dominguez should have howled and cried to a friend, friend, how can you say that about me!
But this time...... Once again, the long and short legs grasp the crux of the problem:
"But the book is written in Portuguese! With so many bookstores in Turin, can you just buy a football tips book in Portuguese in Italy? โ
"Dominguez......? Dominguez! โ
"Domingos, don't you don't talk again!!"
When the long and short legs chased after the Inter defender like this, the Brazilian couldn't help but feel a headache.
Sure enough, as the child grows up, it becomes more and more difficult to deceive.

May 15th.
In the final round of the Portuguese Super League this season, Sporting Lisbon met Pacos Ferreira. The formidable Ferreira faced Sporting Lisbon, who had advanced to this season's Europa League title and runner-up final with Porto, and fought hard to a draw.
In this way, Sporting Lisbon managed only one point in the final league game and thus lost to Porto for the top spot in the league standings, relegating to second place in the Portuguese Super League this season.
At this point, this season's Portuguese Super League matches are all over.
Porto, the top team in this season's Portuguese Super League, had finished their final round of league fixtures the day before. It was only after the news that Sporting Lisbon were finally held to a draw by Ferreira, FC Porto announced the parade of champions on their official website.
It was eight o'clock in the evening on May 15th!!
Although the time may seem tight, the team and the fans who love them have been preparing for this day for a long time!
According to the official website of the FC Porto, the championship celebration will continue until 5 o'clock in the morning of the next day!
Every hour, from 7pm to 1am, the floats of the Porto players pass through one of Porto's main sections!
Although, Porto isn't big and Portugal's second-largest city might be small for Thunder Wing, but that's okay! Wouldn't that just allow them to appear in every area where crowds are most likely to gather! Today's Porto belongs to them and every fan who loves them!!
On this afternoon, Lei Yi sat on the sofa in the living room of his home, and watched the game that made Sporting Lisbon very ...... with his family Very tough game. Thunder Wing swears! It was really the first time he had been so happy to see Sporting Lisbon not win!!
"Yay!! We're champions!! โ
In the last ten minutes of the game, Lei Yi was already a little unable to hold himself, and when the referee blew the whistle that meant the end of the game, he was even more happy to stand on the sofa barefoot and jump!!
This time, his mother was no longer nervous to say that she would have to pay for breaking someone else's furniture! And his father also stood up when he stood on the sofa and jumped up, but hugged his son excitedly!!
"My son has only been in Porto for his first season! Porto is the league champion!! โ
Thunder Wing's dad is excited!! Recently, Daddy Lei, who has been studying hard for the whole English and Wen football agent course, happily picked up his son who was standing on the sofa!!
For this way of expressing joy, Lei Yi likes it very much!
But then...... He discovered a sad fact......
Even his national team manager, the chubby Mr. Andrik, was able to pick him up and walk a few steps!! But his father was not yet fifty, and he carried him and walked before he collapsed after two steps!!
"Be careful!! You let go!! โ
Obviously, the sturdy and agile skills of the long and short legs did not come from his father......
Because, at the critical moment, his father couldn't even let go of his hand and let him save himself!! This threw him and himself on the floor of the living room......
"Boom!" With a bang, the Thunder Wing family fell into a terrible silence......
What broke the silence was her mother's heart-rending screams.
Lei's mother: "Lei Zhongjun!! You broke our player's son's leg!! โ
Daddy Lei: "Son!! Son!! Son, how are you!! Is Dad bad!! โ
Thunder Wing: "........................"
Oh, what a family tragedy.
The long and short leg from Tigos's nemesis, of course, would not have been so easily broken by his family's attack. But it's a pity...... His old father had the misfortune of twisting his ankle.
Thunder Wing: How could such a thing happen!!
Seeing that his father was still muttering "Alas, I knew that there would be nothing good in this year's natal year", and tears were about to fall from his long and short legs.
Obviously, Thunder Wing's dad was unable to watch his son's championship parade due to a regrettable accident.
Because of this accident, which no one expected, Lei Yi's family was in a hurry for a while. First, the long and short legs scooped out the spray that the athletes' homes usually have, but after spraying, Lei's father and Lei's mother agreed that foreigners' Western goods are sรจ goods, how can they be useful with the medicinal wine they brought. So he wiped it with a hot, wet towel, and then rubbed it with medicinal wine.
After going back and forth like this, I tossed for another hour.
Wait until the long and short legs look at the time again, oh my!! In a short time, he should be in the dressing room at the training base!!
So the long and short legs hurriedly asked his mother to take care of his father! I rushed into the kitchen, found some bread and cut it, pulled out the vegetables for the vegetable salad from the refrigerator, spread the tuna, salad and cheese, and rushed out the door with a toothpick to close them.
"Tsubasaki!! Tsubasa you haven't eaten dinner yet!! โ
"It's too late!! We're going to meet at 7 o'clock!! โ
When Lei Yi rushed out of the door, Lei's mother also ran out, but she couldn't catch up with the long and short legs that ran out of the smoke. Long and short legs ran down the stairs quickly, but they didn't think it was fast enough to go down the first floor, so they sat on the handrail of the stairs, "Huh! "Gotta go down.
"Excuse me! Something just happened at home! Don't worry! I'll be there on time! โ
Lei Yi had barely been out on his bike with a homemade sandwich in his mouth when he received a call from the club's staff. So the long and short legs immediately sped up, scooping out the spirit of chasing the special car of Mr. Andric, the head coach of the Chinese team, on a bicycle all the way!!
In the dressing room at the Porto training base, everyone was already celebrating!! Long and short legs nodded to everyone, and then immediately ran to his wardrobe to change into his Porto No. 99 jersey!!
In fact, when he was in Sao Paulo, Raywing's most wanted jersey number was the number 11. But unfortunately, a kid like him who has just started playing football is not qualified to wear such a jersey number. Therefore, Lei Yi chose No. 99.
But now, he feels like he's got a love for the number.
It was when everyone hugged and kissed each other, took pictures, and sang happily, that there was a knock on the door of the locker room.
"I beg your pardon, gentlemen. Time's up. โ
This is a club staff member who is reminding the more than 20 players of the Porto squad that it is time to get on the float and get a closer look at the fans who await them on the streets of the central area of Porto.
At this moment, in addition to the players of the Porto team, the police of Porto are also ready, and began to block the streets where the floats are about to pass one by one, and tell the fans who are already waiting there not to stand on the road and block the Porto team's float convoy!!
When the DJ on the scene broadcast the song "We Are the Champions", the champion team of this season's Portuguese Super League, Porto, finally arrived.
Porto tonight belongs to the Porto team!!
