Chapter 8 The Beginning of a Football Career

……the next day……

"Hey, who is it?" Cao Yu, who was watching the game video engrossed, was very dissatisfied by the sudden ringtone of his mobile phone, grabbed his mobile phone and asked impatiently.

"Coach, I'm Li Yuming, I've made up my mind." Cao Yu's long-awaited voice came from the other end of the phone.

Cao Yu pressed the pause button of the video recorder and asked seriously, "Yuming, are you sure? I hope you don't regret it."

Li Yuming muttered: "I'm sure, coach, when will I find you?"

"At 3:[-] p.m., Rizhiquan plays at Huangpu Stadium, see you soon." Before Li Yuming could react, Cao Yu had already hung up the phone.Cao Yu laughed alone, and said to himself: I will not give you a chance to regret it, kid.

……

3 minutes before 15 o'clock, Li Yuming's figure has appeared in the Huangpu Stadium.

What Li Yuming didn't expect was that before he reached the gate of the yellow card stadium, he could already see a fat figure looking around at the front platform from a distance, his chubby face was full of anxious waiting.

Li Yuming beckoned: "Coach Cao, I'm here."

When Cao Yu heard Li Yuming's voice, his anxious expression immediately relaxed, and the corners of his mouth were lifted up. That smile, uh, can be as wretched as it can be. Maybe all geeks are so ugly...

"Let's go, the training starts at 3:[-], and I'll test your physical condition first." Cao Yu, an impatient man, said while dragging Li Yuming into the Huangpu Stadium.

Huangpu Stadium is located in the east of Dashadi, Huangpu District, Guangzhou City, China, covering an area of ​​3 square meters. It is a comprehensive physical training base and an important supporting facility for urban construction in Huangpu District.The stadium has a track and field field and a football field that meet international standards, has 6 auditorium seats, and provides lounges and parking lots.Huangpu Stadium has hosted the women's football matches of the 12000th National Games and the 2004 China-Myanmar Football Match, etc. It is now the home ground of the Chinese First Team Rizhiquan.

Unlike the closed basketball stadium, the standard football field is open-air, and you can breathe fresh air no matter where you are, which also makes Li Yuming feel very comfortable.

Since he was used to playing wild ball on the open-air basketball court when he was a child, Li Yuming preferred to run under the sunshine and the breeze.When he entered the closed gymnasium for training for the first time, his level of performance was not even [-]% of his usual level, and he gradually got used to it. Even so, he still didn't want to stay in the closed gymnasium for too long.

"Do you like the environment here?" Seeing Li Yuming's satisfied expression, Cao Yu suddenly asked.

"En." Li Yuming nodded knowingly.

"Then 10 laps. I'll give you 10 minutes to warm up."

"What!!! So fast!!!" When Li Yuming realized it, Cao Yu had already put his hands behind his back and walked towards the coach's bench.

Damn, this fat man is actually a devil coach.Li Yuming cursed secretly in his heart, but he had already chosen this path so he couldn't blame others.

Football players generally run an average of more than 9000 meters per person in the whole field, so without good physical reserves as a support, in the second half of the game, the body will swing and cannot keep up with the speed of the brain, and some will have cramps. In severe cases, fractures, strains, etc. may occur in just a simple body collision.So running circles is far more important in football players than basketball players.

Li Yuming simply stretches the tendons, presses his legs, and stands on the spot next to the track and field field outside the court to let his body temperature rise slowly, which will increase the flexibility and flexibility of the body's muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Reduces the likelihood of muscle injury. Seven minutes later, Li Yuming also felt that his body was almost hot, so he trotted onto the track.

Cao Yu turned on the set-up analysis equipment, and a digital camera with extremely high pixels was set up at an angle that just had a full view of the audience. Through the software, the images captured by the digital camera were converted into heat maps, showing the changes in Li Yuming's physical condition while running. In this way, it became data and presented in front of Cao Yu.While Cao Yu was looking at the data on the computer, he did not forget to record something in the notebook with a pen in his hand. Some complicated formulas and data were written in the notebook. Before Li Yuming ran 10 laps, Cao Yu had already memorized There are as many as 5 pages.

"It seems that the kid's physical strength is also good. I expected to let him go to Haigeng to run for two weeks. This is good. The time is saved and he can directly train with the ball." Li Yuming finished the tenth run. During the lap, Cao Yu was still very satisfied with the data reflected on the computer, and he turned his head and said to his teaching assistant Zhong Weiming.

"Brother Cao, where did you find this kid? His physical fitness is not like an ordinary person." Rizhiquan assistant coach Zhong Weiming was busy preparing the materials of his teammates who will be training in a while.

"Hey, the CUHK basketball team dug it." Cao Yu laughed like a profiteer.

"Ah, I play basketball, no wonder this body is so good, tsk tsk, this body is probably at the top among basketball players." Zhong Weiming has long seen Cao Yu's deeds of poaching people, just like Sun Zhiquan's main force Central defender Li Zhihai was recruited from the provincial volleyball team. Originally, he couldn't even open his feet, but he was trained by Cao Yu for half a year. Now he is one of the well-known iron guards in the Chinese League One.

"Which position are you going to let him play? Is it the goalkeeper?" Zhong Weiming guessed Li Yuming's future.

"No, this kid suffered a serious hand injury before and couldn't play basketball anymore, so I hired him here. The feedback given by the SOCCERSIMULATOR (soccer simulator) is that this kid is a winger."

"Winger? Our team has Yin Hongbo and Lu Lin on the left, and Li Jian on the right. Tan Bingliang is gone." Zhong Weiming was puzzled. After all, Yin Hongbo in the team can be said to be in the limelight in the Chinese League. After 17 rounds of the league, Yin Hongbo has scored 7 goals and 10 assists, and the club that wants to buy Yin Hongbo even has a class bully like Evergrande.

"Yin Hongbo, I am going to let him play in the middle next season and let this kid play on the left. He will be our hope for the Super League next season." Cao Yu stopped recording and said emotionally: "If SS (SOCCERSIMULATOR abbreviation) is correct , this kid will be China's Ronaldo in the future."

Seeing that Li Yuming, who had finished ten laps, was looking at him, waiting for the next instruction, Cao Yu said hello to Zhong Weiming, and walked to the track and field track.

The length of the track and field track outside the football field is 400 meters per lap, and after ten laps, it is 4000 meters.Li Yuming ran down the 4000 meters without any tiredness on his face, and even looked much more energetic than when he first came here.

"Hey, it's been a long time since I ran so well, coach, how is my running?" Li Yuming talked to Cao Yu with a smile while moving his waist and shoulders.Li Yuming believes that his physical fitness will definitely satisfy Cao Yu.

"Yes, the official training starts at 3:[-]. Now let me tell you about the tactical thinking of football." Cao Yu nodded, and after finishing speaking, he led Li Yuming to the audience stands of Huangpu Stadium to find a seat.

"Tell me about your understanding of wingers?" Cao Yu took out a small notebook from his pocket and began to record endlessly.

"Uh, winger... speed, speed should be the most important thing, probably use speed to hit the opposing defense line, uh."

"and then?"

"Uh... I don't know..."

Cao Yu glared at Li Yuming: "Nonsense, if you just use speed to rush to the opposite side, then why didn't Bolt and Powell play football?"

Li Yuming scratched his head in embarrassment: "This... I don't know either."

Cao Yu began to make a long speech: "Winger tactics in today's football techniques and tactics, the winger should first be reflected in the word "fast". The left winger is AL, and the right winger is AR. The general name is "wind". Wings are also called two wings, so the winger's breakthrough must not only be fast, but also his dribbling must be a "floating" feeling. The wing attack refers to the attack launched by the two sides of the opponent's half. In football games, the center is the Defense is the most important thing. It is very difficult to break through directly from the center, but on the side, the number of defenders is relatively small and the space is relatively large, which is easy to form a breakthrough. Make full use of the width of the field, and the wingers can initiate from the side by dribbling Attacking, breaking through the weak link of the opponent's defense line to directly form an in-cut shot or a bottom pass, using multi-point outflanking and multi-level attack in front of the goal, is one of the development directions of modern football offensive tactics."

"Is that so..." Li Yu was obviously thoughtful.

Cao Yu said angrily, "Don't tell me you haven't watched a football game since you grew up?"

"Ah, I seem to have watched a few Premier League games when I was young. Real Madrid in the Premier League and Chelsea in Spain are amazing."

"My God." Cao Yu slapped himself on the forehead: "You really are football blind."

"Uh, isn't this the time I spent watching basketball since I was a child?" Li Yuming blushed in embarrassment.

"Forget it, take this little book back and read it carefully, and familiarize yourself with it. Here are the key points of wing tactics that I will analyze for you. I believe it is understandable with your basketball IQ. Also, Sina, 3G, , Let me see Tencent's football section if you have nothing to do, and don't talk about Real Madrid in the Premier League and Chelsea in La Liga when you go out in the future. It will make people laugh out loud."

Cao Yu added some key points to the notebook and gave the notebook to Li Yuming.This tactical manual was specially prepared by Cao Yu for Li Yuming half a month ago. With the basis of basketball tactics, Li Yuming can easily understand the essentials of football tactics. This is the advantage of high golf quotient.

Soon, it was 3:[-], and the players from Rizhiquan also appeared on the court.Everyone cast a surprised look at Cao Yu and Li Yuming who were speaking engrossingly in the audience stands.Who is this young man with explosive muscles?Why is the coach talking to him in the stands with such a good temper?Since Li Yuming is wearing the usual training clothes of CUHK, the players can easily tell that he is also an athlete.

Cao Yu, who was impatiently watched by the team members, got angry and roared: "What are you talking about, why don't you run around quickly, don't move, add food today!!!"

When the players of Rizhiquan heard the word "Jiacai", it was like seeing a devil, and they ran in circles without even daring to look at it.Adding food does not mean adding food to their dinner, but the meaning of running laps from ten laps to twenty laps.

Since Li Yuming only has a half-knowledge of the basic skills of football, Cao Yu did not arrange for him to participate in the confrontation training in the team. rise.

There are a total of 30 rounds in the league, and with 9 rounds left, Cao Yu has no plan to let Li Yuming participate in this season's Chinese League One.After all, in less than half a year, no matter how talented Li Yuming is in sports, it is impossible to learn all the basic skills solidly.The most important thing is the running-in of the lineup. If Li Yuming is arranged in the 18-man lineup so quickly, it is unknown whether a chemical reaction can be produced so quickly.When the board of directors' request for this season is only to keep 10 and win 8, Cao Yu still decided to be conservative. After all, Li Yuming, who just started playing football, needs time most.

Li Yuming's football career began like this.
