Chapter 5 Crisis! Crisis!
()
After this successful save, Chu Jiang's performance slowly got on the right track.
In the fierce game, he can always find loopholes in his teammates' position in advance and loudly remind his teammates to run; he can also predict the opponent's offensive route in advance and arrange his teammates to assist in defense and fill in the position in advance...
In the next game, Chu Jiang's shouting was everywhere, completely different from his previous hesitation and silence!
Under his command, the Yellow Team's defense line became more and more stable.
These players are still defending, but the Blue Team's offensive players feel that the opponent has changed a group of people. Every time they attack, the pressure is not high at the beginning in the middle circle, but when they approach the 2 or 30 meters area of the penalty area, they will be surrounded by heavy surrounds. Usually, they can't even find a point that can receive the pass, so they have to choose to shoot far or return, which basically cannot pose any substantial threat to Chu Jiang.
The Blue Team became more and more frustrated, but the Yellow Team became more and more organized and more confident, and began to slowly organize several effective counterattacks. If it weren't for the Yellow Team's forward players' poor feet, the Blue Team's goal had already been pierced several times. Despite this, the Blue Team goalkeeper was so scared that he was sweating in a cold sweat. He quickly transferred back two full-backs who frequently assisted, and told them to participate more in the defense.
You know, the offensive players of the Yellow Team are just substitutes!
Seeing that the proud disciples could perform like this, Superintendent James Paul and Principal Mo Yanjie finally put their heart back on their stomachs and felt very relieved. James Paul even believed that Chu Jiang's performance today had surpassed the usual level. With such steady performance today, this kid can directly play as the main player in the low-level league in Italy!
There are more and more words appearing in Corso's notes, such as "commanding the back defense", "leadership temperament", "one-on-one", "save"... In Corso's mind, Chu Jiang's impression of him was very different from the beginning.
How to judge whether a player can become a good goalkeeper?
Is it a standard to see if the save moves are standard? Is it a fast and accurate reaction when facing a shot? Or is it a choice of defensive position when facing an offense?... Different scouts may have different selection criteria, but for Corso, what he values more is talent!
Talent represents the potential of a player and the future achievements of a player.
A player without talent can only be a mediocre player no matter how hard he tries. If he is lucky, he may become a professional player and barely hang out in semi-professional leagues or the lowest-level professional leagues; a player with average talent may become a pretty good player, but it is still difficult to enter the eyes of high-level league clubs; only players with good talent or even talent have the opportunity to marry into a wealthy family, show off their youth on the highest level stage, and write their own legends.
Just like Casillas, Cech, Neuil, Cesar, and Loris, it has become the banner of goalkeepers all over the world and has become synonymous with the five high-level European leagues!
It is difficult to accurately judge whether a player's talent is good or bad! Corso has been a scout for many years and can only summarize some vague standards. Just now, when Chu Jiang faced that shot, he stopped in time and retreated calmly, showing the talent that an excellent goalkeeper should have. With the help of rich game experience, not many young goalkeepers can do this.
But, these are not enough!
In the next game, Chu Jiang still left a good impression on Corso, but it was not enough to attract Corso to suggest that the club sign him. If Chu Jiang was an EU player, perhaps Corso had already decided to sign the contract. But unfortunately, Chu Jiang is a Chinese player, which means that if Chu Jiang is signed, it will cost Inter Milan a valuable non-EU spot.
You should know that Inter Milan only has one non-EU player qualification in one season. Although clubs can bypass this rigid rule through other methods, such as satellite club signing contracts. However, this requires more convincing performance of the players introduced, after all, the operating cost of this method is not low.
While Corso was hesitating, new situations appeared on the field.
After a defensive foul by the player, the Blue Team got a free kick opportunity. The free kick position is about 35 meters in front of the right front of the penalty area, and it is very difficult to shoot directly, but if it is an indirect free kick, it will be a good opportunity!
Due to several consecutive attacks blocked, the Blue Team players attached great importance to this free kick opportunity, and several core players gathered together to discuss. After a while, the No. 4 player with the best footwork, who played as the core of the midfield and had the best footwork, stood in front of the ball. At the same time, the Blue Team's burly No. 9 center and two tall central defenders were all ambushed outside the small penalty area, while No. 11 Mo Chengke still stayed where he liked to be close to the goal on the left.
Chu Jiang arranged two central defenders and a tall midfielder to defend the opponent's three tall players tightly, and then directed the three frontcourt players to line up the wall on the left side of the penalty area. At the same time, Chu Jiang kept roaring loudly, reminding everyone to pay attention to defense. After everything was arranged, Chu Jiang stood at the far corner of the goal, bent down, and calmly waited for the opponent to take the free kick.
Two years ago, it was at this time that Chu Jiang was injured and said goodbye to his beloved green field from then on. Will history repeat itself this time? Chu Jiang was a little nervous...
"b..." The referee's whistle sounded ruthlessly.
The Blue Team No. 4 calmly looked up at Chu Jiang's position, then looked at the position of his teammates in the penalty area, and then lowered his head and stared at the football not far away.
Start, speed up, kick the ball!
"Good ball!" The crowd exclaimed.
The black and white elves made a perfect parabola, easily crossing the wall, and landed flat and fast near the penalty spot in the penalty area. The tall and mighty Blue Team No. 9 center stood there for a long time and was ready to go!
Looking at the ball, Chu Jiang's pupils contracted and his muscles all over his body contracted. The ball landed very tricky, and Chu Jiang had been blocked by the defensive players in front of him, so he had no choice to attack. What's more, Chu Jiang is not good at attacking.
Chu Jiang stared at the coming ball like a crocodile, ready to save the second landing point.
The ball fell down. At the landing point, the Blue Team No. 9 jumped high!
The two central defenders of the Yellow Team were immediately anxious and jumped at the same time. The target was the opponent No. 9.
Under the force of two defensive players, No. 9's jumping momentum was terminated. The jumping height was not enough! No. 9 let out a low roar in anger, watching the ball rubbing his hair helplessly.
None of these three people could touch football!
The football fell into the penalty area, and someone touched it, and changed direction and hit another blue team player. But before he could shoot, the football was stabbed away by an unknown defensive player and fell to another yellow team player. The yellow team player quickly lifted the ball. Unfortunately, the ball hit the middle of the legs of a blue team offensive team before it flew out, which screamed! The culprit football returned to the hinterland of the penalty area.
Melee!
The scene was in chaos.
Chu Jiang bent over and anxiously searched for traces of the damn football in the jungle of human feet, his nerves were very tense!
Suddenly, I don’t know who stabbed it, and the football flew out of the chaotic man and rushed to the lower right corner of the goal. The speed was not very fast, but it was not slow either!
Without thinking, Chu Jiang quickly moved to the right. After two or three rapid steps, Chu Jiang flew into the fish and jumped towards the football!
"Good opportunity! It's now!"
Mo Chengke, who had been ambushing the left side of the penalty area, his eyes lit up, and the football was just not far ahead of him. After speeding up and running for a few steps, Mo Chengke chose to fly into a tackle without hesitation. After seeing Chu Jiang's figure, he shamelessly raised his feet and showed his shoe nails.
In the sun, the bright metal shoe nails reflect a hideous white light!
Chu Jiang's last wonderful save had already made Mo Chengke angry. After that, the Blue Team's offense was repeatedly frustrated, which made him anxious, who was eager to perform! Several irrelevant anti-aircraft guns made him even more complained by his teammates.
Seeing the game time pass and seeing Chu Jiang performing more and more steadily, Mo Chengke slowly burned his mind out of his anger. In this battle for the chance ball, Mo Chengke chose the most reckless way of revenge without hesitation.
The shoe nails are getting closer and closer to Chujiang...
