Captain Football System

Chapter 46
No matter what happened outside, Shen Peng's training continued.

After the last game, the head coach arranged for Shen Peng to practice passing and receiving with the main players. Obviously, his status in the team has improved a lot.

Their next game is at home against Regensburg.

Regensburg is currently ranked last from the bottom, deep in the relegation zone. In order to avoid relegation, they will definitely play hard in the following games, so if this game is careless, it may capsize.

And facing the relegation team, it is impossible for them to hide and defend, so they have been practicing offensive routines before the game.

On February 2, after going to practice three rounds of table tennis with Xi Beier at night, he returned to the dormitory, turned on his phone, and there were still a few messages from Zhu Xian.

"Hey, tomorrow is New Year's Eve, do you have any dumplings?"

"Hey, it's so annoying to go to relatives' house for a hundred years after the New Year's Eve!"

"By the way, there is no Spring Festival in foreign countries, so you don't want to compete in these two days!"

Shen Peng woke up suddenly when he saw it. If he didn't pay attention, it was already the Chinese New Year. Anyway, he couldn't go back this year, and he didn't know how the situation at home was.

"You really hit the spot. /囧"

"We have another game against Regensburg on February 2, but it is a relegation team. This game should be easy to win."

"There are really no dumplings, hey.../Drool"

After returning Zhu Xian's message, he hesitated for a while and dialed the number at home.

Originally, it was five or six o'clock in the morning in China, but according to his family's past rules, he didn't sleep much during the New Year's Eve, and instead had various entertainment activities, so someone should answer the phone.

Sure enough, the phone was connected. As soon as he picked up the phone, he heard bursts of laughter from the other side.

"Hello, Mom!" After all, Shen Peng is only 17 years old, and now he is abroad alone. When the call is connected, his eyes can't help but get a little moist.

"You finally know how to call home, kid! If you don't contact me again, I will call you." Cheng Huilan's voice was full of joy.

"Are you at Uncle's house now?" Shen Peng asked, they seemed to be playing cards, because from the phone, they could vaguely hear "Do you want to do that, or do you want me to play cards!"

"That's right, that's right, that's right, your cousin taught us to use that mobile phone software, which allows us to video chat! This way you can save some phone bills." Cheng Huilan seemed to have remembered something.

Shen Peng was taken aback, the phone bill is nothing to him now, but he hasn't seen his uncle for a long time, and the video chat is also good, "Well, okay, then I'll hang up first."

After a while, the video call was connected, and Shen Peng immediately saw the familiar face.

"Hey, brat, why do you seem to have lost weight!"

A rough voice sounded, and Shen Peng knew without thinking that it was his father.

"That's right, Shen Peng, is the food there bad? Or are you not used to the food there?" Cheng Huilan asked with concern.

"No, it's just that there is a lot of exercise here. Don't look at me looking thinner, but my muscles are much stronger!" After finishing speaking, Shen Peng brightened the muscles on his arms.

"Brat, don't lie to us! You are here to play football, what muscles do you have in your arms?" Shen Minghui saw through his little trick at a glance.

Shen Peng slapped his forehead, he actually forgot about this, and immediately changed the subject with a smile: "The legs are the same, and the legs are the same... How is your harvest this year?"

Speaking of the harvest, Shen Minghui had something to say, but before he could say a few words, he was stopped by a voice next to him, "Third brother, it's your turn to play! It depends on your son after he finishes playing!"

Shen Minghui glared, "Okay, okay, I've lost this one. You guys have a few bombs, let's show them all. I'll settle the bill with you later. Don't bother me to chat with my son!"

After finishing speaking, he continued to look at the phone and started chatting with Shen Peng, which made Cheng Huilan next to him a little dissatisfied, "Don't snatch it!"

Shen Peng smiled and began to listen to his parents' stories about these days.

For example, what is going to kill a big fat pig weighing nearly 250 catties tomorrow, what cousin has brought his wife back, what uncle has built another house at home, and so on.

They chatted until dawn over there before ending the call - in fact, if they hadn't seen Shen Peng yawning, they would have chatted for two hours.

Shen Peng saw the new house of the uncle's house from inside, and also showed his parents his living environment here, so as to reassure them.

After the end, Shen Peng fell asleep almost as soon as he touched the pillow...

On the second day, Shen Peng rarely did morning exercises, which surprised several teammates like him, because Shen Peng has been here for so long and has never been absent in the morning.

"Hey, Shen Peng, what happened to you yesterday? You came so late today?" During breakfast, Dedic asked. He is also a person who insists on morning exercises, so it is a little strange that he did not see Shen Peng today.

"I said, you didn't do that last night, did you?" Grezka next to him said, clenched his hands into empty fists and kept moving up and down.

Dedic gave him an elbow, "Don't talk nonsense, he is still young, as far as I know, what kind of holiday is in their country today, he probably contacted his family yesterday."

Grezka looked at Shen Peng inquiringly, and Shen Peng nodded, confirming Dedic's statement.

"Okay, I was thinking too much. By the way, Shen Peng, your chances of playing may increase tomorrow. You should work hard!" Grezka said to Shen Peng again.

"That's right. Tomorrow's game Regensburg will definitely have a bus in the backcourt. Your long-range shooting ability may be useful at that time. The head coach may let you play in advance."

Shen Peng nodded. In this case, it is a good opportunity for him to prove himself.

As long as this opportunity is seized, he may be able to start a key game later.

That is to start on the evening of February 2th and challenge Stuttgart away.

The reason why Shen Peng will pay attention to this game is because this game is the quarter-finals of the German Cup, and their opponent is a Bundesliga team.

He asked the system, and Songshan's task is to "lead the team to victory" only after playing the entire game, so even if he wins as a substitute, it cannot be considered as completing the task.

And Stuttgart is the middle and lower reaches of the Bundesliga team. The German Cup has played to the quarter-finals. They will definitely play seriously, so as long as they can win this game, then he can complete the mission of Songshan once. If he wins, he will have the opportunity to challenge the Bundesliga team in the semi-finals.

The only thing to note is that they challenge their opponents away, which is a bit disadvantageous for them.

The quarter-finals of the German Cup are a single-leg decision, and the home and away games are also determined by drawing lots. It can only be said that they are not very lucky.

After eating, they began to walk to the court, and the day's training began.
