World's No.1 Football Manager

Chapter 535
Although they lost in the first round of the Champions League, Schalke 04 fans still have confidence in their team.

After all, this is a game that cannot be lost. They believe that the cheered home team will give a good lesson to the little-known Portuguese Super League team at home.

As for the feat of Maritimo's away draw against Real Madrid in the last round, they automatically ignored it.

The tiger also dozed off. In the last game, it was likely that Real Madrid underestimated the enemy, which allowed Maritimo to take his life.

The roster for the game has just been announced, and they found that the opposing team's lineup is a bit strange.

First of all, they saw Ronaldo on the opponent's bench.

How is this going?Wasn't he injured in the last game?How did he recover so quickly!
Or is there no one in Maritimo's formation, so the Colombian, who has not recovered from his injury, took the risk to stand by on the bench?

And there are 5 Chinese in the opponent's lineup!

They are goalkeeper Niu Gensheng, central defender Wenjun, defensive midfielder Zhou Yong, forward midfielder Wang Zi, and left midfielder Liu Yun!
And there was Pan Xinyue sitting on the bench.

Is this a Champions League game?Or is your team competing with an Asian team?
Although there are main Bundesliga players like Xu Yifan in the Bundesliga, and a group of outstanding Chinese players such as Wang Zi, Wu Lei, He Xiaoke and Batur have also emerged in the European arena, but this is far from eliminating people's inherent impression of poor and weak Chinese football.

After all, decades of achievements have proved that the Chinese can't play football!

The Schalke 04 fans who are not familiar with Maritimo are a little angry. The opponent dared to send a group of Chinese to play against us. Are they going to give up the game or look down on us!
However, after the game started, they soon discovered that things were not as they imagined!
Maritimo is much stronger than expected.

Almost from the moment the opening whistle sounded, the 55000 spectators at the Veltins Stadium were presented with a well-trained and mighty team.

Every player in this team has strong personal ability, comprehensive skills and distinctive characteristics. Whether it is stopping the ball, dribbling, passing, or shooting, the technical movements of each link are very in place, and the completion is crisp and clear.

And the team as a whole is stronger.Like a precision-running machine, everyone is a part of it, doing their own inconspicuous work, but when they are combined together, they fit together seamlessly, every link is interlocking, everyone's brains seem to be connected in series, and all thoughts and thoughts are in harmony.How to pass, how to run, how to grab, every movement is uniform.

This team is very strong!
Just 10 minutes into the opening game, the thought was on the minds of everyone at the Veltins-Arena.

After playing for another 10 minutes, the fans of Schalke 04 already had a premonition that their home team was going to be in big trouble in this game!

Not only the fans of the home team were surprised, but even Xu Yifan, who was familiar with Gao Yuan, was surprised from ear to ear.

Director Gao's coaching ability seems to have improved again!

This Maritimo team played more smoothly and smoothly than the previous DB, and it was also more mature and sophisticated!

DB is already very strong, having won the Sao Paulo State Championship with an absolute advantage, and now the Maritimo team in front of him seems to be more mature and powerful.

Think about it too, DB is just a youth army, but Maritimo is a serious professional team.

Although their lineup is also very young, they are after all a team that has won the Portuguese Super League double crown.Just like a warrior who has killed people and seen blood on the battlefield, his temperament is completely different from that of ordinary people!
From this point of view, it is not that DB, where the geniuses gathered at the beginning, achieved Gao Yuan, but on the contrary, DB is just a small platform, which limits Gao Yuan's performance.Only when we are on a bigger stage can we perform a greater excitement!
What's more, what if Maritimo goes to the top giants of the five major leagues in the future?What kind of shocking performance will the high guidance bring to everyone...

What surprised Xu Yifan even more was the competitive level and ability shown by his former teammates.

After Xu Yifan came to the Bundesliga, he practiced hard every day. In the high-level training and competition, he felt that his ability had made great progress compared with before.

But now seeing his former teammates, he realized that compared with them, his progress was like a race between the tortoise and the hare.I am a tortoise, crawling forward unremittingly, but I am a rabbit with full horsepower.

What's even more frightening is that these rabbits didn't sleep at all!

Niu Gensheng is a goalkeeper, Wang Zi is a genius, and Wen Jun was unknown to him before, so these people don't talk about it.Just talking about the changes in Liu Yun and Zhou Yong shocked him.

Although Liu Yun in my impression is fast and good at dribbling, he is not particularly good at reading the game and choosing the timing; he is good at straight and diagonal forwards, but rarely cuts inwards horizontally; his shortcoming is his finishing touch.

But now Liu Yun plays very maturely.When to run and when to stop is very well done, and the timing of passing and breakthrough is just right, which shows that his overall view and ability to read the game have improved significantly.

He is no longer the lone ranger who floated alone on the wing in the past, but has integrated into the team as a whole and has become an important part of the overall offense and defense.

But this is not to say that his specialties have degraded. On the contrary, his fast forwards and sharp breakthroughs have become better day by day, and his familiarity with the ball is far better than before.It's just that now his running and breakthrough are more reasonable, and he will immediately pass the ball when he sees a good opportunity, and it is integrated into the whole, which is no longer so abrupt.

What surprised Xu Yifan even more was his old partner in the midfielder——Zhou Yong.

This orangutan, who was only good at robbery, now has such solid basic skills!

Every move is well-organized, and the ball is stopped and passed with style.

After grabbing the ball, I no longer rush to pass the ball to the teammate closest to me, but learn to observe and read the game, assess the situation, and pass the ball to the most suitable position.

In this way, the team can launch a threatening offense at the first time, and truly become the hub of the team's offensive and defensive transition.

What's even more incredible is that the orangutan, who had almost zero offensive ability, dared to dribble forward with the ball. He had a good chance in the frontcourt, and he was able to take a cold kick, and the quality of his shots was actually very high!
My former teammates have improved so fast!It's almost beyond my imagination!
Xu Yifan has no doubt that this must be the credit of Director Gao!Back then, he was able to turn himself from a reserve player to the main force of the Bundesliga team. He must also have the ability to make others reborn!

High guidance, a little stone into gold, the ability to turn decay into magic!
Xu Yifan suddenly felt a little jealous of his teammates. They were able to stay with the high-level instructor and continue to study, just like flowers absorbing the nourishment of the sun and rain, but he left prematurely, like a lonely sapling, without the shelter of a towering tree, it can only grow silently in the wind and rain alone!

On the other side, Lauderhull and Sammy are also teasing Xiaoxia.

"Xia, your boyfriend is amazing! He can actually coach such an excellent team!" Lauderhull praised.

"Yes, I think Mourinho and Guardiola's ability to build a team is nothing more than that! Also, there are some handsome young men in his team, tell your boyfriend and introduce us to each other!"

Sammy wiped his saliva with a smile.

Xiaoxia smiled shyly, but her heart was sweeter than eating honey.

Even though Gao Yuan is nothing, she still loves him deeply.

But which girl doesn't imagine that her man is an unrivaled hero with his feet on colorful auspicious clouds!
