Chapter 27 Free kick master

Early the next morning, the two of them boarded the train to Bastia.

Squillage has already contacted the person to be seen over there, and Zhao Yaning is happy that he doesn't have to worry about anything.He also asked Squillage why he asked him to go with him. Squillage told him that he did not want other people in the club to know about his private contact with Lyon. Once it is revealed to Monaco, it will not end well in the future.The reason why he told Zhao Yaning was also because Zhao Yaning and him were roommates, and he must not be able to hide it, so Squillage had no choice but to pull him over.

On the way, Squillage also told him that when he arrived at the place, let him practice with the Lyon players, he talked with the Lyon coaches, and asked Zhao Yaning not to disturb as much as possible-this kind of private thing, how many One person knows that there is more trouble, and Squillage is also afraid that the Lyon coach will be dissatisfied.

Zhao Yaning naturally agreed to this suggestion. He was originally only interested in Lyon players.As for what Squillage did without telling the club, although Zhao Yaning also thought it was inappropriate, but he didn't know anyone from the Monaco club, so he couldn't be anxious about Squillage's affairs.

Their destination was not the city of Bastia, but a small gymnasium near a beach on the outskirts of the city.What the Lyon team wanted was this kind of semi-leisure physical reserve training, and it couldn't be better in such a place. [

They were greeted by Alain Simeone, one of Lyon's coaches.He was a little surprised by Zhao Yaning’s arrival, but after Squillage explained, he also accepted Zhao Yaning’s entry into the stadium.

Zhao Yaning was a little surprised that things went so smoothly, but Squillage told him that at this time of year, many young people will be favored by major clubs and have trial training. OK, this is a very common thing.

Sure enough, when he entered the training weight room, although several players present looked surprised, no one said much.

"Hey, we meet again." There were not many people in the strength room, only Edmilson and a few other Brazilian foreign players. Lyon team?"

"No, I'm just here to have a look and learn something from you. I don't want to join Lyon." Zhao Yaning quickly replied.

"If you look down on Lyon, it is your own loss." Edmilson didn't persuade much, "And we don't have any more foreign aid quotas."

Ligue [-] stipulates that there can only be three non-European foreign aids, and Lyon's three places are used on Sony Anderson, Juninho and Kazapa.Although Edmilson is also a Brazilian, he holds an Italian passport and is not considered a foreign aid.

But generally speaking, Ligue [-] teams have much more foreign aid than this amount.But because the vast majority of Africans enjoy non-foreign aid treatment in Ligue [-], those Africans are not considered to be in violation of the rules, and Ligue [-] has taken a lot of advantage in this regard.

The real non-European signings are generally only South Americans for the French.

Zhao Yaning is a rare player from Asia, but he is not considered a foreign aid quota.Because France's youth training system is very good, many teams have set their sights on finding football talents from other continents. Therefore, Ligue 21 also stipulates that players under the age of [-] are not considered foreign aid in Ligue [-].Zhao Yaning is not yet old, so he is not subject to this restriction.

But it seems that Edmilson didn't see this.

"Jose, he doesn't look old yet," Sony Anderson said.

"I can't tell the age of Asians. I don't have much contact with Asians." Edmilson shook his head. "Anyway, they look similar to me."

"It's just each other." Zhao Yaning couldn't help but replied.

Edmilson looked at him, wanted to say something, and shook his head again, "Forget it, I don't know as much as your child. What are you doing here? Who are you looking for?"

"I'm here to find Junior Junio." Although there are many people around, it seems very embarrassing to say so, but Zhao Yaning still said, "I want to learn free kick skills from him."

Edmilson whistled, Sonny Anderson laughed, and Casapa slapped Juninho twice on the back, "Go, Mr. Two, someone is coming to ask you about football skills." .”

"Mr. One-half?" Zhao Yaning was surprised when he heard this.It can be heard that this nickname is used to describe his free kick skills, but the term "half" is too exaggerated, right?When Miha came to Serie A, he claimed to have scored a three-foot free kick, which was considered bragging.

"That's just a nickname, don't take it seriously." Juninho said by himself, "Don't talk about that, he didn't come here to listen to our bragging. Do you want to learn free kicks?" [

Zhao Yaning nodded, but felt a little embarrassed, “I just don’t know if I have that talent.”

"If you want to practice, you can get it. Free kicks are not difficult. Forwards, defenders, midfielders, and some goalkeepers can all kick good free kicks. This kind of skill comes from practice, and has nothing to do with talent."

This kind of statement will make Zhao Yaning feel novel. After coming to Europe, he has always heard the coaches talk about talent issues. They don’t pay attention to talent and focus on acquired hard work.

"I still have training to do. If you are fine, you might as well tell me about your own free kick situation."

Zhao Yaning thought for a while before speaking, “My own free kick was mainly to learn Piero’s style of play at first, but I always felt that it was not very useful, and it seemed that the scope of application was too small. So I also learned a little bit later Ha's style of play, but I can't learn it well, as for Beckham's curve ball, I can't learn it at all."

The few that Zhao Yaning mentioned are all famous players in free kicks.Juninho nodded, and waited until he finished speaking before opening his mouth, "Don't learn Beckham's arc kick, don't learn it. That kind of kick is a huge test for the support of the ankle. Learn If it is not good, you will hurt yourself. There are too many free kicks, and there is no need to learn the one that is easy to get injured. Piero's style of play is a powerful style of play, and the strength must be excellent, and that This way of playing is a bit straight, and the best distance is between 22-25 meters. This is how the Del Piero area comes from. If it is too close, the possibility of being saved is too high. If it is too far, I guess you The strength of my legs can't keep up."

Hearing Junior Junio's comments, Zhao Yaning's confusion was also revealed.His foot strength is not strong enough, and he can't use the powerful kicking style well.

"Miha's inner instep arc is really good, the arc is very beautiful, and there is a little backspin, it is very practical after practice. But the same problem, if you don't have enough strength, you won't be able to kick that feeling. Miha Your own free kick is only good when you are more than 30 meters away? I think you are so thin, if you rub your inner instep, 30 meters will be a problem, right? "

"Is there anyone else who can kick a free kick from 40 meters away?" Zhao Yaning felt that Miha's free kick attack range was not narrow at all, almost all positions, but Juninho's words surprised him a bit.

"If you use the right technique, you can kick in the middle circle. The key is that you have to know when to use which kick." Juninho laughed.

"What kind of free kick are you best at?" Zhao Yaning couldn't help asking when he heard this.

"I'm a stupid person. I don't have anything to create. I just learn two tricks when I see others are good. When I use it, I just see what is suitable and use it."

In other words, all kinds of free kicks will?Zhao Yaning couldn’t believe it.There are many ways to play free kicks, and it would be nice if everyone can master one.Beckham's curve ball is very good, but he has never played the deciduous ball, and Miha's scoring rate is extremely high, but in fact the main kick is an arc with a backspin from the inner instep. ball.Piero's kick is suitable for Piero's area, while Zola's is a banana ball, but all the kicks are good?How is that possible?Knowing one way of kicking is enough to be famous, if you know all of them, isn't it a monster?

"There are so many free kicks, and they are all practiced. How much effort do you have to put in?" Zhao Yaning asked doubtfully.

Hearing his disbelief, Juninho just smiled gently and didn't say anything.He is a good-natured man, and he doesn't take this offense to heart.Just like now, his idea is to use facts as a lesson at most.

"Actually, the key to free kicks is not your footwork, it depends more on your judgment. You don't have to practice every technique to the top. The key is that you have to know which technique to use when. In the world of football, there are too many talents. No one can know the characteristics of each opponent. Therefore, analyze the opponent's wall position to judge the characteristics of the opponent's goalkeeper, and then choose according to the characteristics of your own teammates and the field. The best way to shoot is to develop this ability, that’s the most important thing.” Juninho still taught him, “For example, Miha’s inner instep arc is very suitable for mid-range shots, while Pierre Luo’s style of play is more suitable for close-range free kicks. Learning to grasp and choose the timing is far more applicable than mastering a footwork.”

"Why do I feel that the more I listen, the more complicated it is?" Although Zhao Yaning understood Juninho's words, these timing judgments all depended on his football intelligence, and he felt that the training of football intelligence is far more than the training of football skills. more difficult.

"There's nothing I don't understand. Simply put, Beckham's free kick is just a rare trick. It's just that he has practiced to the extreme, and every time he takes a very tricky angle, that's why the success rate is high. And the real one We Brazilians, we Brazilians, decide the free kick method based on the goalkeeper's technical weakness and positioning. Even if the footwork is not as good as them, we can still play better than them." Edmilson spoke on the sidelines , "Those who rely on technology, there is always a good or bad state. Especially those shots with tricky angles, blindly looking for angles, will definitely miss some shots. But if you analyze your position carefully, then your shots will be much safer .”

"If you have top-level technology and excellent selection judgment, you can also be Mr. Half." Kazapa added.

"Don't just talk nonsense, let's go to the stadium in a while, let them stand on the wall, and I will show you." Juninho replied with a smile.

"Are you willing to teach me?" Zhao Yaning was a little surprised.

"Is there anything that can't be taught? I don't have any special exclusive skills, but some experience. Even if I don't teach, as long as you are willing to work hard on free kicks, you can figure it out after a few years. European Those free kick masters may not have worse judgment than me." Juninho said, "After coming to Europe, I have some new understanding of European defense. I will explain it to you and let me sort out these myself. God’s opinion.” [

Zhao Yaning nodded excitedly.

He has his own system, as long as Juninho is willing to teach him, then he will get a new coach.

And this person has a much better temper than Anelka.
