Chapter 132: Training Match

After his eighteenth birthday, Zhou Yi continued to train in the U19s. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info

In fact, even if he wasn't called up to the U19 by Ricken because of his outstanding performance in a game, he should have come to the U19 now, because he is 18 years old, not a 17-year-old player, so naturally he can't stay in the U17.

Because of Wangle's suggestion, Zhou Yi now has an increased proportion of meat per meal, of course, pork can't be eaten, it's all beef.

In addition, Zhou Yi also eats protein powder after strength training, in order to increase muscle.

Strength training is better for Zhou Yi than physical training, at least he won't be tired like a dead dog every day.

Strength training doesn't focus on draining people, which can hurt you. Scientific training is to control the amount of training, so that the muscles are fully stimulated, but not too excited.

Of course, because the current training focus is on strength, physical training can only rely on Zhou Yi himself.

Every morning, Zhou Yi would wake up early and go to a park near Mark's house to do his physical training.

Constantly change the speed and pace of your running as you jog to simulate what you would encounter during the race.

Anaerobic and aerobic exercise alternate.

In the early morning in Germany, cold air is compressed and inhaled through the nose into the lungs, and then it is converted into energy, which is transported from the blood to all parts of the body, so that the fast and slow muscles continue to contract and release, so that the body can break down the lactic acid produced in this process.

In every cycle of breathing, Zhou Yi fantasized that his body was quietly undergoing small but real changes.

But perhaps this is not a fantasy...... Because Zhou Yi really thinks that his physical fitness is much better now than when he was filming a reality show.

In addition to strength training and physical training, the most important training in the U19 week was the normal training with the team.

In training, the most surprising thing for Yebala was that Zhou Yi acted as if he had been on this team for a long time.

Generally speaking, when a new player arrives in a new environment, there will be some discomfort.

One of the most obvious is the lack of understanding with teammates in training.

This is the case with Mark Wagner, for example, who often struggles with his new teammates in attacking routines.

But such a thing did not appear in Zhou Yi's body.

From the first training session, he felt like he had belonged to the team for a long time.

During the training, he and his new teammates did not have the slightest tacit understanding problem, and the cooperation was very smooth. Because he's a striker, he needs to organise the attack, and if he's not familiar with his team-mates, it's not 'organisational at all'.

Several times, Yebala couldn't help but want to ask Zhou Yi if he had come to this team to play before.

But he also knew it wasn't possible, and Peter Yebala, who had been the head coach of Borussia Dortmund's Under-19s since 2007, had never met the Chinese boy.

So why did Zhou Yi behave like this?

After Zhou Yi came to U19, Ricken still cared about him, and came back from time to time to inquire about Zhou Yi's training, so Yebara told Ricken what he observed.

He had expected Ricken to be surprised—he himself was, anyway.

Who would have thought that after listening to him, Ricken just nodded: "Oh, yes, he does have this ability." ”

"Aren't you surprised, Russ?"

"I've been surprised, Peter. Rickon laughed. "Sasha, the head coach of the Under-17s, told me about this once. I was acting the same as you at the time. ”

'He's in Under-17s...... Is that the same?" Yebara was even more surprised to hear Ricken say.

"Sasha told me that Zhou Yi's first training session at the U17s was as experienced as he had been training with the team for a year. He was incredible, but he didn't know why. To be honest, I don't know why. That's why I understand it as 'talent'. Ricken spread his hands and shrugged. "There are always people and things in this world that we can't understand, and genius is like that. ”

Yebarah accepted Ricken's explanation because he couldn't figure out why.

And judging from what he observed in training, Zhou Yi is indeed a fairly talented player.

In ordinary training, it may not be visible.

But once it comes to the team's offensive training, it's obvious.

Zhou Yi's grasp of the situation on the court, no one can match, looking at his passing goals and route choices, it can't help but make people suspect that Zhou Yi is flying in the sky to play football.

As for Zhou Yi's ability to play in his own team, Yebala no longer has any doubts.

Physically, he may not be up to par, but in terms of football awareness alone, he has surpassed many of the players who are older than him in the Under-19s.

※ ※ ※

In a midweek training match, the entire Under-19s were split into two teams, the red and blue, playing a 20-minute 1-on-10 match. It will be a test to decide who will play in the Under-19 league at the weekend.

But in fact, the vast majority of the starting candidates, in fact, Yebara already knows it.

Just some positions are fine-tuned.

The more important part of this training match is to keep the players in shape and feel for the game, and to check for any flaws in the tactical arrangement.

In this match, Zhou Yi and Mark were placed on the same team, while Gotze and Schneider were on the other team.

This arrangement made both Mark and Zhou Yi very excited.

"Perform well in the game, and you must pull Schneider off the starting list!" Before playing, Zhou Yi lowered his voice to cheer Mark.

"Don't worry, Zhou Yi!" Mark also looked confident.

Although his performance in training was not as good as Zhou Yi's, Mark was not worried because Zhou Yi and himself were on the same team.

We are golden partners, and as long as we are together, there is nothing to fear!

After the start of the game, Zhou Yi quickly took over the task of organizing the attack of the blue team. Of course, this is also what head coach Yebala emphasized before the game - the offensive organization of the blue team is to be handed over to Zhou Yi to test Zhou Yi's performance.

And although Zhou Yi has a tacit understanding with everyone, the cooperation between him and Mark is more than tacit understanding.

If you want to say, it should be "the heart has a soul".

Zhou Yi also consciously chose to pass the football to Mark first when he was close to the penalty area and the goal.

Mark certainly lived up to his expectations.

Two goals were scored in the first half.

Because it was a confrontation match, there was no halftime, and the two sides directly exchanged venues to fight again, and Mark scored another goal to complete the hat-trick.

On the other hand, Schneider, the striker on the red team's side, has only scored one goal so far.

Needless to say, who performed better.

Whether it is Zhou Yi's ability to control the blue team, the tacit understanding between him and Mark that surpasses the average teammate, or Mark's three goals, Peter Yebala who is on the sidelines is also clearly visible.

After Mark's hat-trick, Yebara made a personnel change, swapping some players between the red and blue teams, with Zhou Yi going to the red team and Gotze coming to the blue team.

The game continued, but Mark's performance was not as amazing as when he was on the same team as Zhou Yi, or rather...... A little dazed.

Mark was unable to score until the end of the game, and his tally was fixed at three.

But even so, Mark had to score one more goal than Schneider.

Schneider scored another goal after the personnel change, and eventually scored two, but still lost to Mark in terms of goals

When the game was over, Zhou Yi, who was still wearing a red vest, came to find Mark in a blue vest and high-fived him to celebrate.

"Well done, Mark!" Zhou Yi said, patting Mark on the shoulder. "Hat-trick!"

"Hey, hey!" Mark smiled happily.

"Okay, I think with your performance, the starter should not have run!" Zhou Yi continued to encourage Mark.

"Start!" Mark's eyes lit up at the first hearing of the word.

"When it's time for the official game, continue to perform like this, and that Schneider guy won't want to roll over from the bench again!"

Mark nodded vigorously, and he was already looking forward to a bright future for himself as a regular Under-19 starter.

But he's thinking a little bit ahead, not for the next game, but for the more distant future.

Scoring in quick succession at the Under-19s began to attract the attention of the first team.

He was then transferred to the first team by the first team manager, Mr. Klopp, and performed well in the team training matches, replicating his performance at the Under-19s.

In an official match of the first team, he was included in the squad for the match.

Then at the last moment of the game, he was ordered to come off the bench and ...... with Zhou Yi Turned the tide and reversed the score for the team to win the final victory!

When the game was over, reporters flocked to him, and his image began to appear in newspapers and television. Dad could hear his name when he was driving and listening to the radio......

Then on a sunny morning, I was notified by the club to come to the headquarters and officially sign a professional contract with the club!

His future ...... A piece of light!

Thinking of this, Mark's excited saliva was about to flow out......
