Chapter 112: My Battle
Dejic left the team and I was the only one in my dorm. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info when I came back from completing the basic training in the morning, I saw that the dormitory was empty, and I really didn't feel good. Dejic is one of Slovenia's few technical players, and apart from him, Slovenia may not be able to compete with Hleb on a technical level. Although we can use violent tackles and ferocious defense against Hleb, when attacking, without the technical support of De Djic, our attack will most likely be like a headless fly, only to move forward from the back and then fight for speed...... However, no matter how indispensable Dejic is, if he doesn't return home at night, he violates the team's discipline and affects his own body, and even if Coach Koke punishes him to leave the national team, there is nothing to blame in terms of management......
Eh, I can only sigh to him. Dejic wasn't there, and Coach Koke said he was going to let me play in a defensive midfield, and I ...... Is it up to the task......
At four o'clock in the afternoon, the second training session of the day began.
Coach Koke has defined my new position as a defensive midfielder, specialising in interception and long-range action in midfield. Moreover, despite the opposition of most of the players, he added me to the main lineup! I was a striker, and all of a sudden, I was under pressure to fall back into such a defensive position, and I didn't really know if I could withstand the onslaught of my teammates. Even if we can play well against our bench with the combination of other midfielders, will they be able to defend against the Belarusians when the time comes?
I know very well that the reason why I was able to tackle Hleb to the ground with a ferocious wave that day, and take the ball from his feet, was because he didn't even notice my presence, and that he had been a great drain on his energy from five people in a row. If it's on a normal field, when 11 plays 11, Hleb has a lot of teammates to share the pressure with, so it's very difficult for me to make a wave tackle again. If I want to defend against a superstar like Hleb in a competitive game, I have to improve in a short period of time and adapt to the defensive midfielder position faster!
However, Alusteve said that my task in this European Championship qualifier is to lead the Slovenian national team to the main match of the European Championship! It doesn't matter if I play as a striker or as a midfielder, if we can beat the opponents we deserve, we can get to the European Championships! I don't know what Alotstevi's mission means, but I choose to believe it, I believe she won't cheat on me, and that's what I'm aiming for, isn't it?
After the simple warm-up training, the next training content is group confrontation.
For the first time, I wore a yellow vest that symbolized the position of the workhorse. I used to wear a blue vest from the bench, but this time I suddenly put on a yellow vest and suddenly felt a heavy pressure in my heart. But when I think about what I experienced in that "universe" last night, I feel that I have nothing to fear.
Even such a strong pressure, I have carried it, this psychological pressure, what can it be!
The intra-team confrontation has begun!
The substitute line-up, led by Slovenia's two former fierce generals, is now a substitute, mainly because of their advanced age. They are Milenko Asimovic and Milan Osterci. Milenko Asimovic was one of the players of the great Slovenian team that played in the World Cup in South Korea and Japan, and he was the one who was a substitute for Zakhovic in that great team. In the face of such a star player, my defensive ability will be put to great test! And the other one, Milan Osterci, is also famous, he is also a member of the team that participated in the World Cup in South Korea and Japan, back then, he partnered with Zahovic in the front court, Zahovic was responsible for controlling the ball and passing, and he was the one who completed the final blow! Moreover, in the play-offs of the 2002 World Cup qualifiers, it was these two fierce players who scored one goal each against Romania and finally eliminated the Romanian team and entered the World Cup!
Against such a hero in the history of Slovenian football, with my half-defensive ability, can I really hold it?
Coach Cork blew the whistle for the start of the game! Milan Osteric passes the ball to Milenko Asimovich, who controls the ball and attacks! Asimovich's possession was really top-notch, and two players on our main side pressed forward and couldn't even grab his ball! But Asimovic was forced by two men and really couldn't move forward, and he couldn't get the ball, so he had to turn around and pass the ball back to his team-mate in the midfield position.
I saw that Asimovich's passing seemed to be a little weaker, and with my speed, it seemed like there was a chance! So I ran towards this weaker pass, and before my team-mate in the midfield was about to get the ball, I released my masterstroke - the wave tackle!
This tackle is powerful and ferocious! When my midfielders saw that my tackle was so powerful, they were frightened and shrank when they received the ball!
So, I made a tackle and managed to break the ball! With the ball in hand, my body continued to glide on the grass and brought down the midfielder! However, such a tackle is not a foul, since I got the ball first, the ball is mine! Bringing down the opponent is just the result of not being able to brake the car after getting the ball. As soon as I got the ball, I stood up. I have broken through the midfield position, and there are only two centre-backs and goalkeepers left in front of me!
Speed, speed! My biggest advantage is speed, and since I'm already at the front of the team, I'm not going to do it alone, when?!
I started to break through with the ball! This is already a return to my role as a striker! I'm the fastest in the team, and neither of the two centre-backs can compete with me! They can only use two flanking blows against me, but I already know their intentions!
I didn't dribble in front of the two centre-backs! I burst into a small gap to their left so that there was only one centre-back who could defend me! Their pinchs missed, but my breakthrough broke through their defenses quickly!
In this way, I will face the goalkeeper directly!
"Come on! Look at my sea-waves-shoot-door! ”
The ball came out like a cannonball, and there seemed to be some star chips around the ball......
Is it star shavings, or is it waves? The silver ice crystals can be said to be fragments of stars or broken flowers of ocean waves...... When did my shots become so powerful?!
Could it be...... In that "universe", the result of receiving gravity training? ……
"Smack!" The ball hit the net hard! My first shot in the first training match for Slovenia was a goal that went through the substitutes!
