Chapter 14: The Halftime Metronome

In the world of football, every match day, wonderful goals will be born, but a goal combination like today's "Scorpion Tail Swing" assist + "Turn and Volley Sky Hook" will definitely not be seen.

It's so beautiful!

Even Zidane, who has played a miracle like "Flying Immortals" in his career, couldn't help but shout in his heart, if it weren't for the head coach of the goal scorer, he would definitely stand up and praise this goal.

He deliberately glanced at Qu Jing a few times, comparing the disappointment on the faces of his players, Qu Jing's face did not show much complacency, this ordinary-looking young man picked up the ball from the net and ran to the center circle after a simple celebration.

Approaching the end, he was still not satisfied?!

In this moment, Zidane remembered a team, Manchester United, the European Red Devils who always made big comebacks before the end: this team with high morale under Alex Ferguson, never tired until the final whistle, as the "Golden Generation of '92" Ribart said: "We were told one thing from the beginning of learning to play, a game is not 90 minutes, plus stoppage time, there will be 96 or 97 minutes. ”

Zidane frowned and clapped his hands to signal the players to cheer up. The field is changing rapidly, and the players will also be affected by various accidents, from leading by two goals to being tied by two goals, which is both cruel and torture for the Real Madrid B team players who originally thought they had "succeeded in revenge".

After the restart, the already exhausted players of Real Madrid's B team had clearly lost their fighting spirit and had completely lost hope of scoring again. They frequently fell in the back, and under pressure from Batista, Capilla, Olambo and Rogrigues, they either passed back to the goalkeeper or rushed to kick the shot.

After Real Sociedad B got the ball, their midfield teammates formed a tacit understanding, and the first choice was to pass to Qujing, while Batista, Capilla, Oralambo and Rogrigues also kept an eye on Qujing, running without the ball to respond, and his teammates seemed to acquiesce to his "midfield metronome" attributes.

From the sidelines, an interesting phenomenon is that even if Qu Jing does not take the ball, there will be at least four Real Madrid B team players around him, but the Real Madrid B team players who are close to overdraft are obviously even more unable to run the ball at the moment, Qu Jing keeps receiving and passing, calm and calm, never dragging mud and water, but also never blind, except for two attempts to be intercepted by the opposing players who are almost all hoarding the penalty area, he maintained a super high pass success rate and created several threatening balls:

In the 89th, 91st, and 93rd minutes, Real Sociedad B created consecutive shooting opportunities, but Real Madrid's B team's "swing bus" formation kept the score until the final whistle.

After shaking hands with Agusli, Zidane walked up to Qu Jing and patted him on the shoulder, which made Qu Jing a little flattered, and it was obvious that his performance on the field today was affirmed by this senior.

Qu Jing smiled and watched him leave, saw Rodriguez walking over with his shirt on his shoulder, smacked him lightly in the chest and said: "Hey, this is definitely the most beautiful goal I have scored in my life, Qu, thank you for the wonderful assist".

Capilla also smiled and leaned over and said, "I'm sure this is not the only wonderful assist in his game, is it?" ”

Qu Jing smiled, high-fived Kapillia, who was not so serious for the first time, and rushed to the fans who came to watch the game with everyone to applaud, the fans stood and applauded, although they did not have time to know the young man who turned the game around, but still called out a number in a row, the number on Qu Jing's jersey - 20.

"It's so nice to be stared at by the fans!" Qu Jing shouted wildly in his heart, although this was only a game in the third division, it was enough to make a fire ignite in his heart, and he secretly told himself: This is just a starting point, and soon, I will show it to more people.

Back in the locker room, the players were still immersed in excitement, shouting and frolicking as if they had won an important game. All echelons of clubs like this with average financial resources and strength have a certain "hatred of the rich" mentality, and when they encounter giants like Real Madrid and Barcelona, their first reaction will always be to crush them. Although there was only a draw today, the ups and downs of the process, especially the last-minute reversal of defeat to a draw, still made everyone can't help but be elated.

Agusli affirmed everyone's performance, briefly analyzed today's situation on the tactical board, and did not criticize Oyazoun, who did not play well in the first half. In fact, everyone knows that sometimes on the field, it is not that the players do not want to strictly implement the coach's pre-game tactical settings, but the ability is different, and the level of play on the field is not the same, which has nothing to do with discipline: in this world, whether you admit it or not, in all fields, there will be three, six, nine, etc., some people are unknown all their lives, and some people are geniuses and world-famous.

As Agusli reviewed today's game, Qu Jing also thought about it, and there is no doubt that Real Madrid's B team was more successful in its tactical setup than this team today. If it weren't for the fact that the opposing players had a decrease in the intensity of high pressing due to physical fitness in the second half, coupled with the carelessness and psychological immaturity of the enemy, the successful comeback in the second half might not have been so smooth.

He once again realized his shortcomings: there is still a big gap between long-distance precision guidance and direct threat to the goal: counting the top midfield metronomes in today's football, whether it is Xavi, Pirlo, or Gerrard, Alonso, or Sneijder, Modric, all of them have ultra-accurate long passing ability, especially in rapid counterattacks, using the opponent's formation is not completely arranged, and a penetrating long-distance pass can often kill the game at critical moments.

This requires a brilliant combination of precision, angle, force, and speed.

Unfortunately, he can't do it yet.

He found the physical coach Corone on the training ground, and the senior who had been teammates with many superstars told him that just like Baggio is to Pirlo, Ronaldinho is to Messi, Keane is to Ronaldo, etc., young players are all skilled and tactically trained and played next to the old demons, imitating everything about them, ball control, dribbling, passing, set-pieces, shots, feints, and most importantly, the big picture and reading comprehension of the game, will undoubtedly affect and determine their rapid growth.

Corone looked at the Qu Jing and said in an accentuated tone: "However, in the world of football, talent is more important than everything. If you want to achieve something in the midfield position, boy, remember, discovering and seizing the moment is more important than technique. He smiled slyly at him, pointed to the goal about 60 yards away, and said, "Three times a day, kick the post and the crossbar at this distance."
