At the Carrington training base, Li Shuai completed a day of individual training.

After repeatedly telling Li Shuai not to practice for too long, Clegg had already left the training ground, and the little guy Jonny really came to "supervise" Li Shuai's training, but just now, the little guy was pulled home by his father Jonny with an unwilling face and went to do his homework.

Li Shuai waited on the pitch for Pogba to arrive, and then began today's practice.

This time Pogba didn't let Li Shuai wait long before he appeared, the two first did half an hour of long and short passes, passing training, practicing the accuracy of passing, and the stability of stopping the ball, which can also improve the tacit understanding between the two on the court.

Such an unguarded pass is not difficult for the two at all, but the lack of difficulty does not mean that there is no need for practice.

For example, the stopping of the ball involved in this, it seems simple, in fact, the knowledge inside is quite big, when to use the foot quilt, with the arch of the foot, chest, and even the outside of the foot, the knee is very particular, only by practicing more often, in order to be able to park the ball in the best way in the game.

Stopping the ball is the foundation, yes!

However, it is only when the ball is stopped that the players have time to adjust and process the next moves.

A good stop will make you do more with less, whether it's passing or shooting.

Stopping the ball badly, it will make you twice the result with half the effort, simple example, stopping the ball by your side, and stopping a few meters away, which is easy to deal with, which is suitable for you to make the next move, at a glance, and sometimes you can even stop the ball at the moment, make extraordinary actions.

This is also the reason why Li Shuai's basic skills are already quite good, but he still needs to spend half an hour to practice.

Only by striving for perfection can you play freely on the court.

However, this practice is still a bit lacking, because they are passing the ball unguarded, and it is unknown whether they can still pass accurate and good balls to teammates if they are on the pitch and facing the pressure of defenders.

Fortunately, there are always more ways than difficulties, and Li Shuai had already thought about the case when Pogba promised to practice together yesterday.

First, in front of them, set up three obstacles at a certain distance, and after 30 seconds, the two exchanged offense and defense, and passed the ball to the preset obstacles.

Li Shuai's method aroused Pogba's interest very well, this guy believes that if it is attacking and defending on the spot, Li Shuai loses the advantage of speed, he relies on the advantage of his body, there is no reason to lose, so he proposed: "If you lose the side, please have a big meal." ”

Li Shuai didn't know what this guy was thinking, but there was a bet, and it was not bad to increase his enthusiasm for training, so he smiled and agreed.

At the beginning of training, Li Shuai attacked first and Pogba defended.

Pogba is not an excellent defender, but I have to say that without acceleration, it is quite difficult for Li Shuai to get rid of Pogba on the spot.

However, Li Shuai defended Pogba, and also did not let this guy get cheap, although he was not as tall and heavy as Pogba, but Li Shuai has his own set of methods for defense, in the face of players like Pogba, Li Shuai chooses the enemy to advance and retreat, the enemy retreats and I advance, try not to confront the opponent's body, and then wait for the opportunity to tackle.

Or through his speed and physical agility, as well as defensive positioning and anticipation, he can make interceptions and disrupt the opposition's passes.

After more than half an hour, the two can be said to be chess opponents, both of them used all their strength and sweated profusely, under such a confrontation, both physical strength and mental consumption are huge.

Both guys were now slumped on the court, gasping for air.

As for winning or losing, after subtracting mistakes, Li Shuai is 1 qualified, 4 excellent, and 5 perfect; Pogba has 5 qualified, 3 excellent and 2 perfect.

In terms of success rate alone, the two are comparable, but if you want to divide the highs and lows, in terms of accuracy, there is no doubt that Li Shuai wins.

"Thank you for your generosity, Paul!" Li Shuai looked at Pogba with a smile and said.

Although he said this, Li Shuai muttered in his heart: Competitive sports are really the body, and if you don't have a good body, it is in vain if you have the skills to break it.

Although Li Shuai won in the end, Pogba did not make him suffer less, less speed advantage, Pogba used his "humanoid beast" body, and several times Li Shuai made technical moves, which were squeezed and deformed by this guy with his body, and even destroyed.

Fortunately, for defense, Li Shuai has his own set, complementing each other's advantages, and he can win. Although he knew that he couldn't be in a hurry, Li Shuai couldn't help but sigh again, he really wanted to quickly recover the strength of his body during the period of the soldier king in his previous life.

Unlike Li Shuai, Pogba is now full of depression, he originally thought that he would eat Li Shuai, rolled his eyes, but his mouth was unconvinced: "Soon we have to practice free kicks, do you dare to compare this?" ”

A free-kick is a way to handle the ball at will, a way to restart the game after a foul.

Depending on the number of touches and the number of touches by the attacking team's penalty taker, free kicks can be divided into direct free kicks and indirect free kicks.

Direct free kicks are often handled by one or more players with outstanding footwork, while indirect free kicks that require careful deployment and pre-match drills are an extension of set-pieces to sports warfare, requiring good tactical awareness and coordination.

Here we are talking about direct free kicks!

Modern football's requirements for defense have reached an unprecedented height, and relatively weak teams often hoard a large number of players and put up a posture in the backfield of the bank to defend with all their might.

Since there are more defensive players than attacking players, it will be very difficult to break down the defense of the opposing players, and there will be a stalemate.

At this time, there is a free kick master in the team, who can often change the game and turn the tide of the game in an instant with his outstanding footwork.

The game continues to develop, and if it is a strong team and the score is behind, they will naturally invest more troops in the attack.

After investing more troops, there will inevitably be gaps in the defense, and the stubborn side is likely to seize such a moment and launch a quick counterattack through concise and efficient passing, and expand the score.

On the contrary, if the strength is relatively weak, and the side that chooses to stick to the goal is breached, then they are in even greater trouble, not only are the tactical arrangements broken, but they also have to be forced to become the attacking side from the defensive side.

Their strength is relatively weak, and the number of defenders is reduced, so they are also counterattacking, no matter how you look at it, they are all strong sides, and the efficiency is higher.

Another point is that whether it is a strong team or a weak team, if there is an excellent free kick master in your team, you will let the opposing player, when defending at the front of the penalty area, because of the fear of being awarded a free kick after a foul, so that you do not dare to easily kick down.

This gives players with the ball, whether they want to pass or pass, they have more options.

It is precisely because of this consideration that Li Shuai has the idea of practicing free kicks, which not only enriches the offensive means as a striker, but also avoids being fouled too much.

However, at this time, Pogba proposed to use a free kick to compete, but Li Shuai was stopped by Pogba, and he despised this guy in his heart, isn't it just a meal, do you want to be so shameless.

Li Shuai had already told Pogba yesterday that he had never practiced free kicks, but this guy was embarrassed to propose more than this, this TM is full of routines, who TM said that the black guy, the mind is pure...... Dude can't smoke you......

Li Shuai looked at Pogba's confident face, obviously this product has been specially practiced, but Li Shuai is also a guy who does not admit defeat, and still smiled: "No problem!" ”
