I Just Can Score

seven thirty.

The door to the Newcastle United chairman's office opened, and a head poked out of it, followed immediately by another. The two figures held hands and walked closely together, slowly walking forward along the stairs. They looked left and right, obviously very alert, and finally came out. They finally relaxed completely when they entered the main entrance of the office building and turned the corner towards the parking lot.

Under the lights on the roadside, one could recognize Zhen Shaolong and Flora.

Zhen Shaolong was still looking around, and then noticed the dark parking lot. He looked carefully for a long time, and after confirming that it was empty and empty, he took a long breath and said, Laura, this is too dangerous! The office is really not a good place.

I think it's pretty good.

Flora held his hand, looking intimate, and said, The environment is very good and exciting. Don't you think?

I don't think so. Are you sure he won't come back?

Uncle Charnley will take care of it. He knows Ashley too well. Flora said with confidence, then raised the corners of her lips, But, he is my undercover now.

Aren't you afraid that he will betray us? Zhen Shaolong was curious about this.

No. Flora smiled confidently, I said that I will take over some things in the company after graduation, and I will be responsible for operating industries outside the UK. Charnley has a daughter who is three years older than me. After attending a regular community college, I promised to put her on my team and if she does well, I would make her an assistant.”

oh.

Zhen Shaolong understood a little bit.

This is the deal!

Although it is only for the other party to join the management team to study, it is definitely a pretty good opportunity for someone who has only attended community college. Charnley is Ashley's assistant, but his daughter's ability is really poor, so there is no way to arrange such an opportunity. good job.

By the way, Laura. Zhen Shaolong suddenly thought of a question, If you take over the company's overseas industry management work, will all those industries belong to you?

Flora frowned and thought for a while, That doesn't matter, right? But Michael promised that when I get married, he will allocate 20% of the company's shares to me.

Twenty percent?

right!

Zhen Shaolong nodded to indicate that he understood and did not continue to ask. However, on the way back, he was calculating the amount of 20% of the shares.

This is a complex mathematical problem.

Zhen Shaolong felt that he should patiently calculate it, which was equivalent to exercising his brain cells. By the way, he also thought about his own affairs, which was the transfer at the end of the season. The amount of the transfer funds must have nothing to do with him, but according to Mendes , Real Madrid promised to increase his salary by more than 50%.

It's tempting.

It seems that we are closer to achieving our small goal of earning 100 million! Zhen Shaolong's mood became much happier.

The game is approaching.

At noon the day before the game, Villarreal arrived in Newcastle and checked into a hotel in the central business district. They showed a good and positive attitude and lined up collectively to start a long run straight to James Park.

There was a two-hour open training on the small training ground in the park, and then a long run back to the hotel.

This move immediately attracted countless reporters.

Newcastle United was also training at the same time. Keegan heard what his opponents did, and looked at the lazy players in training, and he felt like he was being pressured.

But, there is no way.

Although he constantly emphasizes the seriousness and seriousness of training, even he himself is a person who advocates freedom and believes that players must rely on themselves for training, and force will not be effective. He only took it seriously for one or two days, and the team returned to the previous situation.

In order not to be suppressed by his opponents in terms of public opinion, Keegan simply refused to be interviewed at other times and only attended the regular press conference at 6pm. He did not bring any players with him and only said some official statements at the press conference. , which made the interviewing reporters very depressed because there was nothing to report, but there was no way around it.

Same for Villarreal.

Pellegrini is not a person who likes reporters. He tries to avoid leaving reporting space for reporters and does not want too many messy news in the media.

Villarreal's press conference also felt very boring.

Pellegrini did not talk about Zhen Shaolong or the victory or defeat. He just said very officially that Villarreal will work very hard to play well in tomorrow's game. He also announced the squad by the way, but the big players in the Champions League knockout rounds The list will be reported to UEFA in advance, and the media can find it from the official website, so there is no need to announce it specifically.

Pellegrini said a lot of useless words and then returned to his room to continue working. He was writing and drawing on the tactical board and thinking non-stop on the messy papyrus.

This is something Pellegrini often does -

Research.

The study of football tactics, the study of team play, and the study of opponents.

etc.

These tedious studies were the basis of his success.

Pellegrini has a habit of studying football for two hours before going to bed every day. Even if there is nothing to think about, he will watch a game and then think about it. Constant thinking can make He has a clearer grasp of football, which also allows him to be better prepared for each game.

It's the same now.

Pellegrini has done a lot of thinking. After the draw ended nearly a month ago, he began to study Newcastle United. He also watched a lot of videos during the process, and continued to communicate with assistant coaches. He did a lot of research on opponents. , Preparation for formulating strategies.

Although he was very well prepared, Pellegrini was still not too sure.

Football is inherently uncertain.

The uncertainty of this game still lies in the opponent's core star Zhen Shaolong. Pellegrini conducted in-depth research on Zhen Shaolong and spent more than a thousand minutes watching goal videos and game videos. Detailed notes were recorded, including Zhen Shaolong’s detailed performance in some important games.

He came to a technical conclusion--

Zhen Shaolong's shooting is very powerful, he can be said to be the best in the world, and his rating must be considered as S+++, which is simply unreasonable.

at the same time.

Zhen Shaolong's other abilities are difficult to judge, such as dribbling and passing. Sometimes his performance is very amazing. He can even pass three or four opponents in a row and rely on his personal performance to send the ball into the goal. It is very ordinary when being defended by an ordinary defender, and he may make a mistake and lose the ball.

The same is true for other technical abilities. Sometimes they are very outstanding, and sometimes they feel very average and just like an ordinary player.

Plus, he doesn’t run much.

In the past six months, Zhen Shaolong's average running data has increased significantly, but at most it has only reached the level of an ordinary player. This is not because of his lack of physical fitness, but because he feels that he is very lazy during the game. Perhaps more importantly, The reason is that he does not participate in defense at all and is not very integrated into the team's overall tactics. Even if he takes the initiative to run hard, most of his efforts are in vain.

The above is still Pellegrini's simple conclusion.

Pellegrini's summary was more than that simple. He recorded in detail Zhen Shaolong's running route data, shooting position data, passing and receiving personnel data, etc. He also used computer graphics software to generate images, and then used professional data analysis Method, conducted very complex analysis, and finally studied Zhen Shaolong's data thoroughly.

For example, Zhen Shaolong is used to running on the right side. He takes a lot of shots at the baseline, corners of the penalty area and other positions, which shows that he is very threatening in similar positions.

For example, Milner, N'Zogbia, Geremi, and Button are the teammates who cooperate most with Zhen Shaolong. Milner and N'Zogbia's passes often mean that Zhen Shaolong will shoot directly. Button is slightly better. But Button has the most passes, even three times more than second-placed Gremi, and he also has the most assists.

For another example, when Zhen Shaolong gets the ball near the penalty area, no matter where he is, the probability of shooting directly is more than 50%. The probability of personally taking the ball to find an opportunity and then shooting is more than 30%. He continues to cooperate with his teammates. , the probability does not exceed 20%.

In addition, when Zhen Shaolong is close to the goal, whether it is on the baseline or other positions, the probability of scoring is more than 80%.

etc.

In the tactics class two days before the game, Pellegrini told the players all the studied data, especially the midfielders and defenders. He asked everyone to remember every data, Only Only in this way can our defense be effective!”

Everyone must write it down. When you defend, you will know in advance what he is most likely to do!

“It’s important to predict in advance!”

If you know, Zhen Shaolong has scored 47 goals in the Premier League, and the number of goals last season was 60. If you know, he has scored 19 goals in the Champions League, this season, so far. ...You will understand that you cannot attach too much importance to his defense.

It makes sense.

Have you seen what the media said? No one can guard against Zhen Shaolong. If you can do it, and one of you can do it, I believe he will be very famous soon!

Pellegrini's words made Villarreal's defensive players very excited. Every player hopes to become famous in one battle. Compared with ordinary players, they are already at the top of the world because they are La Liga players. They can still participate in the Champions League, and some of them are still famous stars, but compared with real superstars, even Robert Pires is far behind in his peak period, not to mention that some of the main players in the team are even worse in Europe. Nothing at all.

Now a shortcut appears: as long as you remember Zhen Shaolong's habits, you can know what the opponent is going to do in advance, and defense will naturally be twice the result with half the effort. As long as they can defend Zhen Shaolong, their reputation will increase rapidly, and wealthy families will be interested. Maybe They will be offered high salaries to invite them to join.

Suddenly.

Every player becomes full of fighting spirit.

Pellegrini looked at the tactical board carefully and thought about tomorrow's game. He was not worried about the players' performance. His only worry was, Will these analyzes be useful?

His performance is inherently uncertain. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's bad. It's impossible to predict.

I hope it works!

Pellegrini let out a long sigh. He was so well prepared for the game. If he could no longer defend his opponent, there was really nothing he could do.

the other side.

Zhen Shaolong is also thinking about the game.

Tomorrow is the game against Villarreal. Zhen Shaolong would not take it to heart in ordinary games. He has already won a lot of personal honors, and his personal strength and skill bonuses also make scoring goals very easy. But in the Champions League, The game is still exciting, because the Champions League is the highest stage of club competitions, and its level of attention is second only to the World Cup and so on. The Champions League championship is a huge honor for both the club and the individual.

If Newcastle United wants to move forward, they must get past Villarreal.

Zhen Shaolong doesn't know Villarreal, but a team that can reach the quarterfinals must have aspects worth paying attention to, and he is not sure whether it can win the game.

The tense spirit before the game made him unable to sleep, so he simply turned on his computer and tweeted, Good work for tomorrow's game!

One sentence received blessings from a large number of netizens.

Zhen Shaolong wanted to continue to send a morale-boosting message, such as We will definitely win, but he hesitated and did not post it. He was worried that if he did not win, he would be embarrassed.

At this time, the system prompt suddenly rang--

Tip: There is a new system task triggered.

Villarreal coach Pellegrini thinks he knows you very well. He decided to start from the game habits to limit the defense in a targeted manner.

You need to let the other person know that you are someone who cannot see through them.

Task requirements: 1. Lead Newcastle United to defeat Villarreal by two goals or more.

2. Change your habits and score two or more goals.

(During the mission, you will obtain the special status ‘All your wishes come true’.

When you break your own habits to perform, you will be triggered to obtain a special state of all your wishes come true for one second, and the performance will achieve the effect you want to achieve. )

Mission reward: The appearance index increases a little.

After listening to the system prompts in his ears, Zhen Shaolong didn't understand the details yet, but he already had enough confidence. He immediately wrote a tweet and posted it, We will definitely win, by more than two goals!

This is my promise!

I, and Newcastle United, can definitely do it! You need to get enough advantages in the first round!

Suddenly.

This tweet has become very popular. In just ten minutes, thousands of messages have been added. Most netizens have confidence in the game because they have confidence in Zhen Shaolong--

Needless to say tomorrow, I will definitely win!

Zhen Shaolong said he would win, so why is there any suspense in the game! I bet I can win by three goals!

I bet four!

The game ends in one round, no, it starts now, the game is over.

Another hat-trick tomorrow, looking forward to it!

The above are all Newcastle fans, or Chinese fans. The views of other fans are different. For example, Spanish fans who support Villarreal, some will also pay attention to Zhen Shaolong, and are not interested in Zhen Shaolong's statement, Zhen Shaolong wants to be Pele. ?

Second Bailey, identification completed!

Villarreal is not that weak. Win more than two goals? Just don't lose two goals!

Spanish fans are still a minority. After all, Zhen Shaolong’s Twitter posts are all in Chinese or English. There are still a relatively large number of English fans. Some of them are Manchester United fans and some are Liverpool fans. They support Zhen Shaolong, but they are not interested in Newcastle United. Not necessarily supported anymore.

Most of their opinions are neutral and funny--

More than two goals? I believe Zhen Shaolong can score two goals, but Newcastle United may not win by two goals!

This is too arrogant!

Although Villarreal is not a strong team, posting this tweet is really disrespectful...

...

When various discussions were held on Twitter, the news was quickly reprinted by various media, and the discussion about the game before the game finally became popular.
