When Zhou Yi opened his eyes, it was already a new day, and today was the day of his match against Dortmund.

He slept for eight hours and played eight games last night against Borussia Dortmund.

Maybe it's because I've been playing with La Masia's youth B team for a long time, and I suddenly changed my opponent, and I was a little uncomfortable at first. But that was the reaction of the first day, and now Zhou Yi feels that this youth team of Dortmund is really not as good as the youth team of La Masia, the best of their team is that Mario Gotze, and the level of others is very different from him.

Therefore, it feels easier to compete.

At the very least, even Zhou Yi himself scored in the game.

After four days of repeated matches with Dortmund in his dream, Zhou Yi can be regarded as achieving the goal of "understanding the opponent".

Next, it is time to test his current level in actual combat.

Before exiting the system, he also looked at his latest values.

The stats of each attribute have increased. Among them, short passes have improved the most, because now after he switched to midfield, he is mainly practicing passing, especially short and medium distance passes from 5 to 15 meters. It has changed from the original twenty-two to the current sixty, which is the result of Zhou Yi spending a lot of effort on short pass training, when he specializes in targeted training for a certain attribute, with the role of the system, the training effect is very significant.

The improvement of short passing is also evident in the game of the virtual system, no longer like the first game with La Masia Youth B, first of all, there is no way to pass the football out, and secondly, there is no way to pass the football accurately, and when the football reaches his feet, he basically thinks that the Chinese team's possession of the ball is over.

Getting up from the bed, Zhou Yi saw He Ying come out of the bathroom with a bath towel on top of his head.

Take a shower every day before going to bed and after waking up, which is He Ying's habit.

He Ying's expression under the towel was very serious and solemn, and today, bathing seemed to him not only to clean his body, but also a ritual.

It's like a ritual before a warrior is about to embark on the battlefield. Wash your body, then go into battle to kill the enemy, and finally die on the battlefield.

He Ying does have such a resolute mentality.

In this game, he did not expect the Chinese team to win, even if Dortmund's youth team is the weakest team they have faced so far, it is still better than the Chinese teenagers.

But he still hopes that he can score in the game, which is no longer to prove his ability, but to give Chinese football a long face.

The program team has never revealed to them what repercussions their actions in Europe have caused in China.

But He Ying has his own channels, and he knows the reaction in China.

There are already quite a few people who have called their trip to Europe the "Shame Tour", and their team is also known as the "Shame Team". He admits that his performance is not good enough to be worthy of his supporters, but he will not give up.

If there is no one to help you, then try on your own, like a real warrior, and fight until the last moment.

Zhou Yi noticed those subtle changes in He Ying's body, although he still couldn't say what the reason for this change was, but he could see that Today's He Ying was different from the He Ying of the past, but it was the same as He Ying in a certain period of time - the same as He Ying on every match day.

He was able to guess something from this regularity of changes.

Either He Ying is nervous, or he cares too much about and values the game.

Zhou Yi felt that he should comfort him, as he did after losing to La Masia Youth B.

So he said to He Ying: "He Ying, I think you will definitely be able to score today." ”

He Ying raised his head and looked at Zhou Yi: "Why?"

"I dreamed that you scored. ”

Even if it was an iceberg, he was amused by Zhou Yi's serious nonsense at this time, and He Ying couldn't help but grin.

"Thank you. He said perfunctorily, he regarded this as Zhou Yi's usual nonsense.

"Well, I'm serious. Seeing that He Ying was a little unconvinced, Zhou Yi explained.

"Don't you know that dreams are all reversed?" He Ying sneered and wiped his wet hair with a bath towel.

Zhou Yi opened his mouth - He Ying's words made him completely unsure of how to refute......

He can't tell He Ying: My dream is different from your dream, there is a system called FIFAOL in my dream, in the system we have played 32 games with Dortmund, in these 32 games you scored 16 goals, I scored 7 goals, this is a reflection of the real world, not a pipe dream!

In that case, He Ying may not even have the mind to say "thank you" perfunctorily, and will only treat him as a psychopath.

The match between the Chinese teenagers and the Dortmund youth team was in the afternoon, and the game venue was in their training base, although it was not deliberately closed, but the training ground of the youth team was rarely patronized by fans, and there were no reporters guarding there, so it was actually almost closed.

After lunch and an hour-long lunch break, all the teenagers gathered and took a bus to Dortmund's training base in the Brackel area.

Waiting for them there were the club's president, Mr. Laubar, and the academy director, Ricken.

The chairman of the club came to pick them up in person, which is the highest treatment that Chinese teenagers have received along the way. A club like Real Madrid, which focuses on the Asian market, is just a vice president.

The white-haired Mr. Laubar gave a warm welcome to the young players and introduced them to Academy Director Ricken: "This is our hero Lars Ricken from Dortmund. ”

In the 1997 Champions League final, Dortmund and the Italian giants Juventus were in the middle of a fierce battle, the two sides were deadlocked, Dortmund only led 2:1, and Juventus counterattacked very strongly, at this time, Dortmund coach Heathfield pushed a young man to the sidelines.

The youngster had just come on the pitch when he had a chance to counter-attack, dribbling through midfield with no defenders in front of him, only Italy's international Peruzzi.

Everyone was looking forward to a one-on-one duel between him and Peruzzi in the box, and if he could get the ball in, it would seal the win.

The young man lived up to expectations, and in the face of the attacking Peruzzi, he opted for a calm lob shot, and the ball drew a wonderful arc in the air, went over Peruzzi's head, and flew into the goal!

The goal sealed the win and gave Borussia Dortmund the first and only European title in their club's history.

The hero who helped the team seal the title was none other than Lars Ricken.

He was only twenty-one years old at the time.

And now standing in front of the Chinese teenagers, Ricken's figure still maintains the lean figure of the athlete period, but the wrinkles on his face have increased significantly, which is completely different from the hairy young man who beat Juventus in the Champions League final back then.

When he smiled, there were even more wrinkles at the corners of his eyes.

"That was eleven years ago. Ricken laughed. "Now I'm the head of youth at Borussia Dortmund, but I'm not retiring yet, I'm playing in the second team. Well, welcome to Dortmund!"

As with the previous five clubs, it is customary to visit the club's academy with the head of youth first.

Ricken always spoke proudly when introducing the Dortmund academy.

But he also has the confidence to be proud.

Although the first team results in recent seasons at Dortmund have not been very good, last season they finished thirteenth, reaching a rare low.

But their youth level has always been very high. For example, Ricken himself was cultivated by Dortmund. and Nuri Shahin, a midfield talent who spent last season on loan at Feyenoord in the Eredivisie and helped the team win the Dutch Cup, was also cultivated by Dortmund's own youth system.

"Of course, the best academy talent we've got right now is—" Ricken said proudly, pointing to a photo on the wall.

Zhou Yi followed the others to look over, and he recognized the person in the photo at a glance.

Mario Gotze.

He said to himself.

"Mario Gotze!" Ricken reread the man's name. 'He's the latest result of our academy. Seeing that the Chinese teenagers were indifferent to the name, Ricken said, "Maybe you are a little unfamiliar with him now, but you will see him in the game in a while." ”

Zhou Yi said in his heart: I'm not a stranger at all......

Yes, thanks to the virtual system, Zhou Yi has played against Gotze thirty-two times, no matter how misaligned, there will still be head-to-head battles in the game, sometimes it is Zhou Yi who defends Götze, and sometimes it is Getze who defends Zhou Yi.

Zhou Yi found that this kid was similar to himself, and he was not good at defense, so when he defended Getze, Götze could easily pass himself, and when Götze came to defend himself, he could also find confidence from him.

Zhou Yi became familiar with Ge Ce a little bit in the process of abusing each other, and even had a little affection for Ge Ce.

Götze, who has a baby face, also looks more pleasing.

After visiting Borussia Dortmund's Academy, the players went to the players' lounge to get ready for a change.

Zhou Yi changed his jersey very actively, and Liang Qiqi, who saw all this in his eyes, snorted. In his opinion, Zhou Yi is like a little kid who gets carried away after getting a favorite gift.

He may think that being able to play is a gift, but Liang Qiqi firmly believes that Zhou Yi will soon find out that he is very wrong!

lost five games in a row, and all of them were big losses, which made head coach Hao Dong have nothing to say before the game.

Continue to boost the morale of the team?

The current situation is that even if he has a lotus tongue, it will be difficult to motivate the morale of these young players.

The huge gap between them and Europe's top youth training has made everyone feel discouraged.

One game after another, knowing that it is bound to lose, what is the need to work hard?

Can you win with hard work?

Can hard work pay off?

Chicken soup for the soul has always said so, but the cruel reality tells them that drinking too much chicken soup will cause indigestion.

Hard work can't make up for this gap!

Before the game, the atmosphere in the locker room was like a post-game after a loss, silent and depressing.

Zhou Yi was very uncomfortable with this atmosphere, and he sat in his seat and twisted around, as if he had ADHD.

Fortunately, at this time, Hao Dong spoke, saving him from embarrassment.

"In this game, the opponent is also very strong, as long as everyone shows what they usually do in training, it will be good. Remember, try to be yourself, and that is the greatest victory. ”

Hao Dong has lowered his goal to this point, which shows how bad the team's situation is now.

Do you do your best to show yourself?

Zhou Yi thought of the thirty-two games he played against Borussia Dortmund youth in the virtual system.

Maybe more can be expected?

Now that you've been given the opportunity to play, don't let that chance go to waste.

Zhou Yi has his own ambitions.

What He Ying said is not right, I am not the kind of person who giggles all day long and doesn't care about anything.

I take football seriously, too!
