Chapter 23 Team Training Match

The next morning, the first team started tactical training, and Jiang Xiaolin, a trial player, naturally didn't have to participate.

Jiang Xiaolin was arranged to conduct comprehensive shooting and goalkeeping training with substitute goalkeeper Sergio Romero from Argentina.

Of course, judging by Jiang Xiaolin's shooting skills, maybe Romero's goalkeeping training has a better training effect.

After seeing Jiang Xiaolin's superb shooting yesterday, Romero is also very willing to train with Jiang Xiaolin.

More fluttering shots from these tricky angles will help improve his goalkeeping skills.

Romero is 192cm tall, 10cm taller than Jiang Xiaolin, but he is only 20 years old. As a substitute, he also stood in the second row, just next to Jiang Xiaolin.

After hearing that the two were assigned to do shooting and goalkeeping training together, the 20-year-old Romero put his arm around Jiang Xiaolin's shoulder and said, "Jiang, we will train together later, you have to be merciful, don't let me I can't catch any of them!"

Seeing the other party's initiative to show kindness, Jiang Xiaolin was immediately overjoyed, and also jokingly said: "Don't throw them all out for me, as long as I can't get in."

Immediately, the two felt a little like friends.

After starting the training, Jiang Xiaolin was surprised to find that Romero's goalkeeping ability is no worse than Didulica's, but there is a difference in experience.

Later, while training and chatting, I realized that Romero was already the substitute goalkeeper of the Argentine Olympic team, and he won the 20 U2007 World Cup with the Argentine U20 national team last year.

Sure enough, he is capable, not just a pure substitute.

Romero transferred from Atletico Argentina to Alkmaar on July 7 last year and spent the club's transfer fee of 1 million euros.

Jiang Xiaolin suspected that Van Gaal bought Romero just to replace Didulica and to upgrade.

This strength is basically the material of the main force!
As for why Romero expressed his goodwill towards Jiang Xiaolin, it was because this year's Olympic Games will be held in China, and Romero will follow the Argentine Olympic team to Beijing to play in the Olympic Games, so he has already developed a curiosity about China.

There is a Hua country in his team, so he naturally wants to get close to him and learn more about the situation in Hua country.

Of course, the main reason is that Jiang Xiaolin's strength has been recognized by Romero, otherwise he wouldn't be bothered to waste time with Jiang Xiaolin!
The morning time passed quickly. In the afternoon, when the group practiced two-on-two and three-on-three pass cuts, Van Gaal allowed Jiang Xiaolin to participate.

However, in this kind of team training with passing and catching the ball, Jiang Xiaolin once again performed horribly, with various amateur performances.

Fortunately, everyone already knew Jiang Xiaolin's strengths and weaknesses, so they didn't expect too much from him, and no one protested that they would not train with him this time.

After the second day's training, Jiang Xiaolin's experience level rose to level 5, 300/1000.

On the morning of the third day, continue tactical training.

In the afternoon, an in-team training match was held to test the players' status and tactical training.

Jiang Xiaolin finally got the chance to show his coach and teammates his scoring ability in the game.

However, even though Jiang Xiaolin has been signed by default, Jiang Xiaolin is not in the team's first-team roster plan for the second half of the season.

Therefore, Jiang Xiaolin did not get the chance to start.

Even in the substitute group, there is no place for him.

Van Gaal still had to examine his real first-team players first, and Jiang Xiaolin had to be a substitute in the second half if he wanted to perform.

It stands to reason that in the team training match, the main team is basically the players who will start the next game with a high probability, and their overall strength is much higher than that of the substitute team.

But after the first half of the 30-minute training match, the scores of the two sides were tied 1-1.

The main team got a lot of chances to score goals, but they were all saved by goalkeeper Romero of the substitute team. There was only one second shot. He lay on the ground beyond his reach and could only watch the ball go into the net.

This kind of performance made the coaches quite satisfied, but the main goalkeeper Didulica was naturally under a lot of pressure.

During the intermission, Van Gaal made some personnel adjustments and replaced the remaining players who could not play to find the feeling of the game.

Of course, Van Gaal did not forget Jiang Xiaolin.This adjustment naturally has a place for him.

Moreover, he was put into the main team and became an opponent with Romero.

Seeing that Jiang Xiaolin was put into the main team, Romero's expression suddenly became bitter, and he secretly thought that something was wrong.

Originally, his performance in the first half was good, suppressing the performance of the main goalkeeper Didulica.

Unexpectedly, the head coach put Jiang Xiaolin into the main team in the second half, and now I don't know how many goals I will be poured!

Jiang Xiaolin also gave Romero an apologetic look, saying that he needed to seize the opportunity and go all out, so he could only feel sorry for his new friend.

Romero sighed secretly, and gave Jiang Xiaolin a thumbs up, telling him to do his best.

As for myself, as the goalkeeper of the Argentine Olympic team, it is naturally impossible to surrender.He also has to work hard to express himself in order to gain more trust from the head coach in the second half of the season.

The backup goalkeeper is a position that requires time in itself.

Even if the performance in training is better than the main goalkeeper, as long as the main goalkeeper performs stably in the official game and there are no accidents, it will be difficult to be replaced by the substitute goalkeeper.

Because the position of the goalkeeper is too special, it cannot be used to train newcomers, so it can only seek stability.

As long as the main goalkeeper is stable, no head coach will easily replace it.

The substitute goalkeeper can only wait for the opportunity silently, and he cannot relax.

Otherwise, once the opportunity comes, but you fail to grasp it, you may be completely sidelined.

After adjusting the personnel, Van Gaal also specially reminded the players of the main team to try their best to pass the ball to Jiang Xiaolin and create chances to shoot.

In the second half of the training match, Van Gaal mainly examined Jiang Xiaolin's scoring ability.

If there is no shooting training in the previous two days, or if the shooting training performance is not good, everyone may not be very happy, and they will be obedient and obedient.

But after watching Jiang Xiaolin's shooting training two days ago, everyone has no doubts.

Jiang Xiaolin scored a goal, and they can also get assists.

Moreover, since Van Gaal has made a reminder, he naturally doesn't care whether they can score goals.

In the second half, as long as Jiang Xiaolin is supported well, it will be enough.

Comprehending and completing the tactical intention of the head coach, uniting and cooperating with teammates in the game, being willing to give up shooting opportunities and assisting teammates under special circumstances is also a manifestation of professionalism and team spirit!
After everything was arranged properly, after a short rest, the second half of the game officially started.

This time, all the coaches and the players who were replaced did not look at other people. Everyone was staring at Jiang Xiaolin to see what Jiang Xiaolin could do in this training match!
