When Qiu Suhui saw Liu Peng standing in the position of central defender at the training ground, he nodded with satisfaction. Although for players and coaches, the more versatile a player is, the better, and the more positions he excels in, the better. But not everyone can play more than two positions, some people can only play one position, but they can create a height in this position that others can't reach. Qiu Suhui believes that Liu Peng is such a person, a natural central defender. However, to reach that height, he needs hard training and mentoring.

One-on-one defensive training is taking place on the field, with the frontcourt players in the team taking turns attacking the defenders. Liu Peng has a high one-on-one win rate, and his amazing explosiveness and sharp judgment often make him the winning side, but Qiu Suhui whistled and stopped training after Liu Peng broke off his opponent's ball for the tenth time.

"Liu Peng!" Qiu Suhui walked towards Liu Peng, and he took away the football at the feet of one of the players, "You come to defend me!" After speaking, he took the ball to Liu Peng.

Liu Peng saw that the coach had already brought the ball over, and he didn't bother to ask why he was going head-to-head with him, so he hurriedly lowered his waist and posed to prepare to meet the enemy.

The distance between the two is shortening rapidly, Qiu Suhui is just dribbling the ball in a straight line, and he can't see what he is going to do next, Liu Peng is the first to attack when the distance is right just now, he relies on his amazing explosive power to stretch out his foot and poke the ball between Qiu Suhui's legs!

It can't be said that Liu Peng's foot extension speed is slow, in fact, many players who lost at his feet just now didn't see Liu Peng's movements clearly, and the ball was broken. But Qiu Suhui's movements were faster, and he turned around like lightning, leaving Liu Peng behind, and the ball was still at his feet.

Qiu Suhui stepped on the ball under his feet and turned to look at Liu Peng: "Did you see my actions just now?" Liu Peng nodded: "You first pretended to break through to the other side with your right foot, but instead knocked the ball from behind you to your left side, and then quickly turned around and took the ball away from my defensive range with the same foot with your back to me." ”

Qiu Suhui smiled with satisfaction: "Yes, you look very carefully." It's called 'Cruyff Turn' and was invented by Dutch star Cruyff. ”

The other onlookers were slightly scratched, no wonder even Liu Peng couldn't prevent it.

"Now that you've seen it clearly, why didn't you stop me?" Qiu Suhui continued to ask.

Liu Peng was stunned, and then replied with some hesitation: "Because, because my left foot just stretched out, you moved, and I couldn't change my technical movements at that time......

"So do you think you're inferior to me in terms of reaction speed? Or is your foot stretched slower than I can turn? ”

Liu Peng thought for a while, shook his head and said, "No, I don't think that's the ......"

"Haha!" Qiu Suhui laughed, "Actually, football is a strategy game full of wisdom. ”

The players don't understand why the coach is talking about this, isn't he training one-on-one defense? This mentioned it sounded new to them, so they all quietly listened to the coach continue.

"I want you to understand that football is not a fierce fight, but a sport that you have to think about. Players need to tense their nerves all the time on the pitch, analyze and make decisions about the situation on the pitch, and don't think that these things are the responsibility of the coach. In fact, the angle and position of the coach are different, and the analysis and decision generated are also different, and the coach is more about the analysis and decision of the overall situation. Locally, you have to make your own decisions. To take the simplest example, a midfielder is often the brains of the team, and he must know whether to dribble and break through, pass to a better teammate or shoot from distance in different situations. Well, this is called analyzing the situation on the field and making decisions. Seeing that the team members all nodded to show that they understood, Qiu Suhui continued to speak.

"Sometimes, you need to make decisions early, or you risk delaying the plane. Strikers, in particular, have fleeting opportunities in front of goal and the slightest hesitation can cost you a chance to score. And for defenders, the last thing they want is to play against someone who can take every shot on goal. But sometimes, it's better to make a decision later. Nowhere is this more evident than in defence. Sima Hongxin! ”

"Huh?" A tall man responded that he was Sima Hongxin, the main goalkeeper of the Henan Central Plains Youth Team.

"Tell me, what would you do if they crossed?"

"Look at the ball, analyze the height and speed, and then jump up and take the ball off as it passes." Sima Hongxin's simple four sentences include the whole process of a goalkeeper observing the situation, making decisions, making decisions, and then acting.

"Well, that's good. In other words, you made this decision after careful observation and judgment, that is, to stop the ball, right? So you don't always take the initiative to intercept crosses in the air, do you? ”

Sima Hongxin feels that this new coach is a little annoying, does this kind of thing still need to be asked? I really don't know how this coach is done, but he still replied honestly: "Yes, if I think the path of the ball is out of my control, I won't go out to get the ball, but stay where I am." ”

“verygood！ Got the idea, right? If Sima Hongxin made a decision too early and did not carefully analyze and judge, then if the cross was to deviate from his control, he would make a mistake in attacking and would likely concede a goal. For defenders, delaying your decision-making time will benefit your defence. ”

"But the coach ......" Liu Peng still had questions, "Sima can delay making decisions because the ball takes time in flight, and this time is enough for him to analyze and judge." But I'm a centre-back, and when I'm one-on-one with the other side, I can't have enough time for me to analyse. ”

"Hah! Didn't you see my movements just now? ”

"I saw it clearly, but ......"

"But why didn't you stop me?" Qiu Suhui looked at Liu Peng with a wicked smile.

"That's because my left foot is stretched out, and you ......" Liu Peng suddenly stopped, and he looked at the coach as if he understood something.

"Haha!" Qiu Suhui laughed, "In one-on-one, it's not always a preemptive strike. When you're one-on-one with someone, don't take the lead because it's easy to be taken advantage of. Keep your eyes on the ball, pay attention to his movements, and then make decisions, and when he makes moves ready to break through you, that's your chance. Liu Peng, remember, you have to move behind the attackers, but you must move faster than them! The so-called late strike, this is the truth. ”

Qiu Suhui whistled, "Okay, let's continue training!" He turned and walked off the field.

"Late strike, late strike......" Liu Peng was still muttering the word.

Hu Li went up to look at Qiu Suhui and shook his head: "Coach Qiu, my old Hu really admires you!" You do have the level, and these children give you their blessing! ”

Qiu Suhui hugged Hu Li's shoulder and said with a smile: "Lao Hu has won the award, a person can't coach a good team, and no matter how good a coach is, he can't train those who are not suitable for playing football at all to become emperor superstars, but do his best to guide a player to take the right football path, and allocate it at the right time to maximize the morale of the players, so that their abilities can be brought into full play during the game, and I am far from these." And I can't lead a team alone, and without you and the rest of the coaching staff, next year's national Under-21 title would have been a dream. ”

"Huh...... Yes? Wait, what did Coach Qiu just say? If I heard me right, you say our goal is the national Under-21 championship? ”

"yes, if I don't win the championship, what am I doing here?" Qiu Suhui looked at Hu Li a little strangely.

"But I know the club has to produce results, but next year ...... Isn't it too fast? ”

"No, I'm afraid it'll be too late next year. Lao Hu, my time is running out! Qiu Suhui looked at the sky outside the training ground, the sky was overcast, and if you didn't look at your watch, you wouldn't know what time it was. Driven by the wind, the clouds are advancing to the southeast, accumulating more and more in the sky of Zhengzhou.

"Tomorrow, it's going to snow......"

The snow was silent, and the first snow of winter in Henan came. Qiu Suhui did not appreciate the kind of "northern scenery, thousands of miles of ice, thousands of miles of snow." Looking inside and outside the Great Wall, only the rest is reckless, up and down the big river, and suddenly it is surging. ......When he went out in the morning, the snow on the highway had been swept to the side of the road by the morning cleaners, and the car drove by the road, only splashing a piece of dirty water, which was not beautiful at all.

The city is the root of all evil, and Qiu Suhui misses the feeling of seeing even the windmills covered in snow in the Dutch countryside. Then he could act as a child with impunity, lying in the snow and looking up at the sky, and now ...... Qiu Suhui looked at the snow blackened by the sewage, and he didn't lie down when he gave him money.

His apartment is close to the youth team's training ground, and it's only a half-hour walk away. Don't look at the fact that he has traveled in Europe for more than ten years, in fact, he does not have much savings, at least between private cars, buses, bicycles and walking, he chooses to walk without spending a penny, in Henan dialect is "Diben".

The advantage of Diben is not only free, but it also allows Qiu Suhui to have more time to think about problems. Riding a bicycle and thinking about the problem will be planted in the ditch, and people say "Zhengzhou, Zhengzhou, dig a ditch every day; If you don't dig for a day, you won't call Zhengzhou. Qiu Suhui doesn't want to use his actual actions to verify how many ditches there are in Zhengzhou. If you take the bus and think about the problem, you will sit at the stop, it doesn't matter once or twice, if you do it every day...... Qiu Suhui didn't want people to see him as mentally ill. It's even more dangerous to drive and think about the problem, it's a major event related to life safety, people are dead, what else are you talking about the national champion? The hope of Chinese football?

Qiu Suhui came back to his senses from thinking again, and he was already standing at the gate. Because of the snow, today's training was put indoors. Workers are nervously clearing the snow from the outdoor training ground, which is impossible for an ordinary youth team training ground to have geothermal facilities.

In fact, the youth team originally did not have an indoor training ground, thanks to the club to surpass, in order to keep up with the requirements of the Football Association, a large warehouse was specially converted into an indoor training ground, although it is far worse than the indoor training base of some European clubs, but there is always better than nothing.

Hu Li is leading the team to warm up, and it is especially important to warm up in the cold weather in winter.

Qiu Suhui has always found it strange that there is a phenomenon that exists in both Europe and China. That is, many coaches attach great importance to the training of technical tactics and physical fitness, the training of offensive routines, the training of defensive tactics, and the training of various set-piece tactics in training...... But one of the most important factors is overlooked: shooting training. In their training programs, shooting training is always used as an adjunct to some of the above trainings.

In fact, many coaches are numb and indifferent to the phenomenon of players missing shots. It is not uncommon to hear the coach say after the game: "We played well, we just didn't take our chances. "But in fact, doing well should involve taking chances. Many coaches focus more on creating opportunities than taking them in their training – which in itself is incorrect.

Therefore, Qiu Suhui adjusted the training of the Central Plains Youth Team, raised the shooting training to an important height, and the shooting training changed from one day a week to two days a week. Hu Li once questioned such an arrangement, believing that it was not worth spending time on shooting training, and that it was better to do more tactical training or strength training.

Qiu Suhui replied to him: "Lao Hu, I understand your concern, but the really exciting moments in football are contained in the shooting, and both sides of the game, whether it is individual tactics or overall tactics, are all about creating opportunities to shoot. What's the point of a game where you dazzle the ball but don't shoot at goal? Whether it's defending or attacking, it's all about scoring goals! ”

After the warm-up, Qiu Suhui gathered the players together, briefly explained the precautions for shooting training, and then asked Sima Hongxin to stand in front of the goal and start shooting training.

There was a burst of table tennis in the hall, which was very lively. At the end of the first round, Qiu Suhui asked Hu Li to count the training just now. The result was a total of 24 shots on goal, of which four were scored, 10 were on target, and the other 14 were all either high or wide. Qiu Suhui looked at such a report card, didn't say anything, and waved his hand again: "One more round!" ”

There was another bustle in the museum. This time there were a total of 24 shots on goal, three goals and eight on target, and the other 16 were either high or wide. Qiu Suhui did not let the players continue to the next round, but gathered the players and raised the two statistical results to everyone: "What do you think? You're all people who want to be in the first team, professional players, there must be people who want to be in the national team, right? That's it? Couldn't even shoot a huge standard goal! Fourteen shots on goal in the first round and sixteen in the second...... I know some people think that shooting is a striker's thing, but I'm going to correct that now! Any of you, including the goalkeeper, have to train your shots and develop your shooting awareness. The kind of guy who has a great chance to score and then passes the ball, I wouldn't think he's so 'selfless'! You know, it's not a ball you're passing, it's a responsibility! That kind of behavior is irresponsible! ”

The players saw the coach angry for the first time, and they didn't dare to take a breath of anger, and honestly bowed their heads to train.

"Don't bow your head! All put their heads up and look at me! Keep your head down, who knows what you're thinking? Qiu Suhui let out a loud roar, echoing in the hall, and the team members hurriedly raised their heads again.

"First of all, you must pay attention to shooting from the heart and cultivate a strong desire to shoot! Don't worry if you can shoot or not, if you don't shoot, you'll never hit! And then there's the technical factor. Note that the requirement for an accurate last name when shooting should come first. I'm not against a big shot, but before you make a sucky shot, aim your crosshairs, because a hard shot without an accurate head will only make the caddy more athletic at best. Then, when shooting, you must try to hold the ball down, even if the shot is off is better than the shot high, the shot is off and there is a chance to make up for the shot, and the shot high will only give the opponent a chance to serve the goal kick. Okay, let's start again, thinking about what I said, one by one, five balls per person! ”

So the players began to shoot outside the specified distance in the order of numbers.

Hu Li said to Qiu Suhui beside him: "Coach Qiu, as soon as you come up, let them shoot, and you don't even talk about the essentials of technical movements, of course they have a low hit rate." ”

Qiu Suhui looked at the players who were practicing shooting and replied with a smile: "Hehe, I just did this to make them understand how important it is to have a correct shooting attitude." Lao Hu, everyone is finished, you can go and count the results. ”

The results came back as a 30 per cent increase in shooting percentage and a 50 per cent increase in the number of goals scored.

Looking at the results he had calculated by himself, Hu Li was very surprised.

"Hehe, 30% and 50%, how's that?" Qiu Suhui smiled, "Old Hu, do you know? This is often overlooked by coaches who only train tactically and technically, as attitude is the first thing that coaches should address when training, with other factors taking a back seat, and improving attitude will lead to the quickest and most noticeable improvement for players. ”

"I see, no wonder Milou always appeared on the training ground wearing his hat, and the words on it really had a lot of meaning......"

"What?"

"Attitude is everything."

Qiu Suhui looked at Hu Li, turned around and walked into the arena again, he clapped his hands: "Okay, everyone understands, right?" I just made some changes in your attitudes, and progress was evident. It's not that you're not skilled enough to shoot, it's just that you don't want to shoot. Now that everyone has a correct attitude, let's still come one by one, and let me tell you about the specific technical problems......"

Watching Qiu Suhui teach these players how to shoot hand in hand, Hu Li suddenly felt that what Qiu Suhui said yesterday was really possible, the national U21 championship......

As soon as Hu Li looked up, he suddenly found that the sun could be seen outside the window! The snow fell overnight, and the sky cleared.
