Just after Feng Quan scored a brace, head coach Fink replaced him with Lin Zhijian so that he could be cheered by the fans when he came off the field. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

In the end, with Feng Quan's excellent performance in this game, and the brave performance of all players in the second half of the game, the Hamburg team finally avenged the defeat in the first leg and won the "Northern Derby" on their home turf.

After the game, the Bundesliga official selected Feng Quan, who completed two passes and one shot in the game, as the best player of the game.

Due to the Schalke 04 team ahead of Hamburg after the end of the last round of the Bundesliga, this round of the league was forced to draw by the weak team Augsburg.

Therefore, after the end of this round of the league, the Hamburg team, which has 30 points, temporarily overtook the "Shakhtars" by 1 point and ranked 5th in the standings.

――――――

The day after winning the "Northern Derby", the players of the first team of Hamburg had a day off as usual.

And Feng Quan also went to the club's gym for physical exercises after breakfast as usual.

Just after Feng Quan had practiced for nearly two hours, he suddenly heard in his mind, "Ding-!" A crisp chirp.

Since in the gym at this time, only Feng Quan was practicing alone, so Feng Quan quickly entered the system.

As soon as you enter the system, the interface displays:

"Congratulations to the host for being promoted to [Superstar Athlete]. In order to encourage the unremitting efforts of the host, the system will give 10 skill points as a reward. ”

After seeing the information on the system interface, Feng Quan quickly entered the [Properties] interface to view. Sure enough, because the two attributes of [Endurance] and [Physique] each increased by 1 point, his "average physical attribute" reached 80.1, and he was promoted to [Superstar Athlete].

After receiving the reward of 10 skill points, Feng Quan entered the interface of the "Football Career" attribute again.

Immediately afterward, he used the skill points he had just obtained to increase the three stats of [Shot], [Header] and [Long Shot] to 90, 64 and 80 respectively.

Although his position is not the center forward at the forefront, after seeing the Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo's "transformation" in La Liga in recent years, Feng Quan feels that he also needs to improve his ability to grab points with his head.

Because Feng Quan himself believes that whether it is in terms of physical strength, explosiveness, and bounce power, he will completely explode the Portuguese Heavenly King. Although he has scored nearly 20 goals since switching to football, none of those goals have been scored with a header.

And such a situation occurs when you have a height of 1.86 meters, and whether it is in terms of physical strength, explosiveness, and bounce power, it is really a bit too much to say that you have to completely explode the wind of the Portuguese king.

Although such a situation has a certain relationship with Feng Quan's style of play, the most fundamental reason is that his heading ability is too poor.

In fact, in addition to his ability to head the ball, Feng Quan's ability to take free kicks is even weaker than his own header.

In the days when Van der Vaart was sidelined due to injury, Hamburg had not scored from a direct free-kick in the game, so Feng Quan was not too impressed. However, when he saw Van der Vaart score a wonderful free-kick in the warm-up match against Galatasaray when the team went to Turkey for training, he finally realized that in order to become a truly world-class star, he must have the ability to score from free kicks.

Just like Messi in the early years, he didn't have the ability to score free kicks.

However, under Ronaldo's "stimulus", the Argentines not only developed their ability to score free kicks, but also surpassed the Portuguese in terms of the success rate of free throws.

It is precisely because of this that Feng Quancai decided to try to improve his header and ability to take free kicks in the coming days.

――――――

The next morning, after a day's rest, the Hamburg first-team players returned to the club's training base for the latest week.

Although he had a day off yesterday, Fink's training content was still focused on recovery exercises.

After Fink's assistant coach, Lars Bietencourt, led the players through the warm-up activities, they began to install Fink's assigned exercises and began training.

Just when the other teammates began to train according to the practice content assigned by Fink, Feng Quan came to the side of head coach Fink.

Seeing that Feng Quan did not participate in the team's training, but walked to his side, Fink asked with some confusion, "Feng, is there anything wrong with you?" ”

"Yes, boss." Feng Quan replied in the affirmative. "Since today's training was restorative training, my body has already fully recovered, so I took the time to practice free kicks today. However, I've never done this before, so I wanted the coach to give me some guidance. ”

If it were another player and he said to himself, "I'm fully recovered," Fink probably wouldn't believe it. However, because Feng Quan was a decathlon athlete before, Fink still very much agrees with Feng Quan's statement.

So, after a moment's thought, Fink asked Bittencourt to call Van der Vaart to his side.

A moment later, Beatencourt led the Dutchman to Fink.

"Do you have something to do with me, Tosten?" Van der Vaart said.

"Yes, Raphael." Fink said with a smile. "Wind, said he wanted to improve his free-kick ability. So, I'm ready to recommend him to you. ”

After a moment's thought, Fink continued, "Also, although Feng Quan's talent is very good, and his transmission and control skills are also excellent. However, because he has been engaged in track and field training before, there are still certain deficiencies in offensive awareness, overall situation, and ability to run without the ball. So, I want you to point out his free kicks and then pass on some of your relevant experience to him. ”

In fact, Van der Vaart originally had a good impression of Feng Quan, a guy who was physically gifted and trained very diligently. In addition, in the first game after returning from injury, Feng Quan created a penalty kick, allowing him to find the feeling of scoring as soon as possible, which made the Dutch increase his favor.

Therefore, when Van der Vaart saw Feng Quan not far away, looking at him with a wistful face, he gladly accepted Fink's proposal.

Immediately afterwards, he asked Feng Quan to find a net bag, loaded a dozen footballs, and followed him to a field in the training base that was unused.

――――――

"Wind, I'd love to know, why do you suddenly want to practice free-kick shooting?" Van der Vaart asked, confused.

Feng Quan smiled and said, "Because my goal is to win the Golden Ball, I hope that my offensive means can be more abundant." Moreover, when the opponent is defending intensively, a free kick is also a very effective means of scoring. ”

As soon as Feng Quan's words fell, Van der Vaart was stunned.

Golden Globe Awards? You seem to have dreamed the same dream when you were younger, right? It's a pity that frequent injuries, coupled with many unsuccessful transfer experiences, not only made me farther and farther away from that "dream", but also wore down my heart. Otherwise, with their own strength and status in football, even in any giant team, they can easily find a place, how can they be willing to settle in a "pseudo-giant" club like Hamburg?

So, after Feng Quan said his thoughts, Van der Vaart seemed to have a new goal in mind.

In the Dutchman's view, because he was more than a decade older than Feng Quan, Fink asked him to coach him to practice free-kicks, while also passing on his own game experience. Yinchuan can be regarded as half of the master of the "King of Sprinting" in the future.

Since I can't accomplish it, the dream of winning the Golden Globe is over. So, if his "half apprentice" can really win the Golden Globe Award in the future, it can be regarded as indirectly helping him realize his dream......

――――――

"Wind, although it takes a certain amount of talent to shoot from a free kick, in fact the most important thing is to rely on diligence." Van der Vaart, who was standing near the top of the arc of the penalty area, said with a serious expression. "Because this technique doesn't happen in a day or two, you have to be consistent to get the results you want."

With that, Van der Vaart kicked a curling ball on the right side of the penalty area, about 223 meters from the goal.

Van der Vaart's inside left foot hit the lower middle of the ball, and the ball flew high and around the wooden wall in front of him, drawing a clear arc in the air, and then just as it was about to fly off the crossbar, it suddenly fell and drilled directly into the upper right corner of the goal.

After seeing the football rolling into the net, Feng Quan, who was standing not far behind Van der Vaart, unconsciously shouted: "Beautiful." ”

"Thank you." Hearing Feng Quan's praise, a smile appeared on the Dutchman's face. "However, you're much more explosive than good, so if you practice your free-kicks in the future, I'm afraid you'll be far better than me in terms of power. But...... I think at the very least, it will take you a year and a half to two years before you can surpass me. ”

"Hehe, I don't need to outdo you, Raphael." Feng Quan said with a smile on his face. "As long as I can be half of your level, I'm very happy."

Although Feng Quan's words were obviously full of compliments, it was clear that Van der Vaart still liked to listen to them.

"Hehe, then you will need at least a year or so......"

――――――

"Since you don't have much of a foundation in free-kick practice before, I have to start with the basics, which is to control the curve of the ball." Van der Vaart was demonstrating and explaining the key points of the free-kick shot for Feng Quan.

"In fact, there are a lot of similarities between free-kicks and curling shots in sports battles when you're training and playing. And the biggest difference between the two, that is, the arc control of the shot. ”

"Under normal circumstances, when you use a curve ball to attack the goal in a sports battle, because the shot has a strong suddenness, it does not need too much arc, and it is possible to bypass the opposing defender and the goalkeeper's defense, so as to achieve the goal of breaking the opponent's goal."

"It's a different story with a free-kick from a fixed point. Since the opponent will inevitably expel the wall in front of you, you must not only jump over the head of the wall, but also have enough arc to avoid the goalkeeper's save. At the same time, the control of the ball speed is also very important, if the ball speed is too slow, even if the arc is large enough, but because the flight time is too long, it is easy to be defused by the opponent's goalkeeper. ”

"Therefore, the first step in practicing free kick shooting is to control the arc of the ball's flight. Only by accurately controlling the arc of the ball's flight will you be able to choose the best target and the appropriate arc of the ball's flight according to the different distances and positions of the free kick. ”

After finishing the explanation, Van der Vaart placed three footballs on the left side of the penalty area, 212 meters from the goal.

"Come on, you first kick these three soccer balls towards the top left corner of the goal in the same way that you do in training and in the game when you curve the ball in a sports battle. Come on, let's go! ”

After that, Van der Vaart "drawn" a square with a "side length" of about 50 centimeters in the area in the upper left corner of the goal......

――――――

Feng Quan's first shot, due to the slightly greater power and the lack of arc, the football was 1 meter above the goal crossbar and more than 2 meters above the left side of the post.

The second shot was slightly better, and although it still didn't control the arc of the ball's flight, at least it wasn't as high as the previous shot, and it flew off the bottom line by grazing the crossbar.

The third shot was a big improvement, although it couldn't get the ball into the top left corner of the net, as Van der Vaart had requested. But at least it didn't go over the crossbar again and flew into the goal, and it was only a little more than a meter away from the top left corner of the goal.

Although Feng Quan's third shot was a significant improvement over the previous two attempts, Van der Vaart did not show the slightest surprise at his performance.

It is not very difficult for a player who can play a main starting role in the Bundesliga to kick the ball into the designated area within 25 meters of the target in an unguarded state.

In fact, even if you are just an amateur football enthusiast, as long as you are diligent and assiduous enough, it is not impossible to kick the ball into the designated area of the goal within a range of about 20 to 25 meters. Provided, of course, that is, when unguarded.

Moreover, Van der Vaart knows very well that Feng Quan's passing in the game is also very accurate, so he should also have some experience in controlling the landing point of football. The reason why his free-kick shooting ability is so weak is mainly due to the control of the arc of the ball's flight, coupled with the lack of sufficient practice in related aspects.

Therefore, Van der Vaart believes that as long as Feng Quan can practice step by step in the way he is directed, then perhaps in a year or so at most, he can have a good free-kick shooting ability.

An hour later......

Van der Vaart, who was still calm at first, couldn't help but show a hint of surprise on his face.

Because it doesn't matter if the penalty is taken on the left side of the penalty area, or on the right side; And whether the target is the top left corner of the goal, or the top right corner of the goal. Feng Quan's shooting accuracy has been able to stabilize at about 9 percent...... (To be continued.) )
