I Want to Be the King of Football

According to the arrangement of Rijkaard and Tenkat, Barcelona's pre-season training this summer is mainly divided into two stages.

The first stage is mainly about physical reserves and player inspections. From Denmark to Asia, in the past two weeks, Barcelona is more about physical reserves, and it also inspects players through four warm-up matches.

Although it was a long journey, it was satisfying to have won all four warm-up matches.

After returning to Spain, Barcelona started the second stage of training, mainly focusing on adjustment.

There will be two Spanish Super Cups in mid-August. The opponent is Real Betis, the Copa del Rey winner last season. Barcelona dare not underestimate it. Rijkaard also hopes to adjust the state of the team before the Super Cup and strive for Take this championship trophy.

After all, Barcelona haven't won the Spanish Super Cup since 1996.

As the last warm-up match before the Super Cup, Barcelona was invited to participate in the Carranza Cup held in Cadiz.

This is a traditional summer warm-up cup in Spain. At the beginning of its birth, the invited teams were the champions of La Liga, the Champions League and the Copa Libertadores, so it has the title of the Small Club World Cup, but more than 50 years later, the influence of the cup competition The power is fading, but it is still a traditional event.

As La Liga champions, Barcelona was also invited to participate in the cup.

The opponent in the semi-final is Sevilla, and the strength is also good.

This team sold a lot of players this summer. Ramos and Baptista went to Real Madrid, but also introduced Fabiano, Canute, and loaned Savio from Barcelona. Pull, and introduced Maresca from Juventus, the overall strength is not necessarily inferior to last season.

As a relatively eye-catching team in La Liga last season, Barcelona hopes to use the hand of Sevilla to test the team's tactics and bench lineup, especially the defensive level.

After all, last season, Barcelona's defense is very fragile, this is well known.

In the first half, Rijkaard lined up the midfield combination of Van Bommel, Gabriel and Iniesta, obviously still wanting to test Gabriel and Iniesta.

Eighteen minutes into the game, Ronaldinho assisted Sudong to score, but Sevilla also created a lot of opportunities, and Fabiano missed at least three scoring opportunities.

In the 34th minute, Edmilson, who was playing the central defender, made an oblique pass from the left. Sylvinho made a forcible breakthrough and then made a cross. .

Just three minutes later, Sylvinho took a free kick from the left directly into the penalty area, and Edmilson scored with a header, making it three to zero.

After changing sides in the second half, Sevilla seized an opportunity to equalize the score, and Daniel Alves saved face for Sevilla, which was also Sevilla's only goal of the game.

In the end, Barcelona defeated Sevilla three to one.

Although the game was won, Sevilla's right back Alves performed impressively and left a deep impression on people. This Brazilian right back has very strong skills and abilities. An important starting point for the sub-offensive.

As early as last season, Alves and Baptista's Brazilian connection was Sevilla's most important offensive line.

...

They beat Sevilla 3-1 to reach the Carranza Cup final.

Two days later, Barca faced Cadiz in the final.

Su Dong did not start this time, but came off the bench in the second half.

In the first half, Barcelona expelled the midfield combination of Deco, Van Bommel and Xavi, but the effect was not obvious. Instead, in the 41st minute, the opponent scored.

Su Dong came on as a substitute in the 55th minute. Three minutes later, he received a pass from Xavi. After stopping the ball in the chest in the penalty area, he turned and volleyed and successfully equalized the score for Barcelona.

Subsequently, Ronaldinho, who came off the bench, scored two free kicks to reverse the score.

These two free kicks from the Brazilian superstar scored directly,

They all played very beautifully, and the angles were very tricky, making the goalkeeper powerless, and at the same time, Su Dong, who was watching from the side, admired it.

…………

…………

boom!

On the training ground of Ganber Sports City, another free kick flew from Su Dong's feet and went straight to the goal hanging in the distance.

The ball climbed quickly, and after bypassing the dummy placed at the front of the penalty area, the ball did not press down and went directly above the crossbar.

Su Dong sighed helplessly.

He was rehearsing Albertini's specialty, the leaf ball.

Su Dong has been training hard for the past few years since he learned leafball from Albertini in Sporting Lisbon, hoping that one day he will be able to kick a wonderful direct free kick.

Strange to say, everything went well, but only in the free kick, Su Dong's entry was very difficult.

By the way, the novel app I'm using recently, [ \\mi\\mi\\reading\\app \\\\ ] supports both Android and Apple phones!

On the personal attribute panel of the Ball King's Road system, free kicks are also Su Dong's biggest weakness.

Of course, it can't be said to be a weakness. After all, no matter what position the player is in, free kicks are considered a bonus, not a necessary skill.

Su Dong made several consecutive penalties, but the footwork was not very smooth.

Iniesta, who was training with him, couldn't sit still. He and Messi took turns running over to pick up the ball. It was too much tossing.

Su, are you stimulated? Seeing Ronaldinho scoring twice with a free kick, do you want to try it too? Xiaobai asked with a smile.

Su Dong made no secret of his envy and nodded, His free kick was so beautiful.

Who said it wasn't? Iniesta was also quite amazed. Whether it's the angle or the strength, it's very beautiful. I think Armando was stunned, and he didn't even make a save.

Armando is the goalkeeper of Cadiz, who is the newly-promoted La Liga this season.

And just before Ronaldinho's two direct free kicks, Armando saved Su Dong's shot and a header respectively, both of which were very good saves, which made Su Dong wonder, Did Mando target him on purpose?

Of course, this is a joke.

It can only be said that the lethality of direct free kicks is really strong and very beautiful.

Su Dong is a virgin man with a perfectionist complex in his bones. He can't accept his obvious shortcoming of free kicks anyway, so he really wants to practice free kicks.

If you want me to say, you still lack some practice. After all, we have a lot of free-kick masters in our team, and it is not your turn to take penalties. Without practice, no matter how much you practice, it will not have much effect. Iniesta Analysis Road.

Barcelona's number one free-kick free-kick is Xavi, the direct free-kick in a better position is handed over to Ronaldinho, and Deco also has a free-kick skill.

On the contrary, Su Dong, from Sporting Lisbon to Valencia to Barcelona, ​​has never taken a free kick.

It's okay, don't worry too much, how can there be a perfect person in this world? It doesn't matter if you can't take free kicks, as long as you can score goals, right? Iniesta comforted.

But Su Dong felt very uncomfortable.

...

After the rehearsal, when he returned home, Su Dong called Albertini.

Although the two have only been teammates at Sporting Lisbon for one season, they have a very good relationship. Su Dong often calls Albertini for advice, especially about free kicks.

Albertini also knew everything and said everything.

For Su Dong's distress, the Italian midfielder is also very difficult to say.

The free kick is very different from the others. It is actually very insightful. Sometimes it is not a solution to just keep practicing. Practice is just the basics, but you still need to be able to understand that feeling.

It was an indescribable feeling, Albertini said.

Especially free kicks with obvious arc changes like the falling leaf ball need that kind of strong feeling.

To be honest, you have been practicing for more than two years, and the entry has been stuck there, why don't you just take a break?

Listening to what Albertini meant, he almost didn't tell Su Dong directly: You may not have the talent in this area.

But is it really so?

Su Dong definitely didn't believe it, because he obviously filled all his free-kick talents.

When it comes to talent, he doesn't know what other people are like, but he must be a full-level talent.

You must know that he is currently at the [Ball 3] level, and he is full of free-kick talents, which is equivalent to having the talent of the world's top free-kick masters. How could he have no talent?

There must be something wrong!

...

Sometimes things in the world are so strange.

God is like a naughty child who will deliberately sprinkle a pinch of salt on your wounds when you are unhappy.

It just likes to watch you look like you are dying of pain, it's really a bit...

A week later, the first leg of the Spanish Super Cup.

Barcelona away to Real Betis.

Rijkaard finally righted Marcos Senna again and let him replace Van Bommel as the team's main midfielder.

In the first half, the two sides played in a stalemate, and Real Betis could barely hold it.

But in the second half, just two minutes into the start, Ronaldinho sent a straight pass from the left, and Giuli broke into the penalty area and scored.

Four minutes later, Harvey made a direct pass behind him, and Su Dong successfully formed a single-handed attack against offside, calmly pushed and scored.

In the 63rd minute, Real Betis defender Luis Fernandez fouled while defending Sudong and gave Barcelona a well-positioned free kick in the frontcourt.

Brazilian player Ronaldinho personally took the penalty, and it was a fantastic direct free kick.

The arc is very beautiful. After bypassing the wall, it drilled directly into the goal of Real Betis.

Three to zero!

This is a direct free kick 28 meters away!

Su Dong ran to Ronaldinho for the first time to celebrate the free kick for him, but his heart was even more uncomfortable.

Isn't this playing me?

Which pot is not opened to mention which pot.

I clearly know that I haven't made much progress in my recent free kick practice, but Ronaldinho's footwork is so smooth. He scored three direct free kicks in two consecutive games. This is clearly doing something!

Too much, isn't it?

Su Dong was even more determined to practice free kicks no matter what.

The goal is second, and the main reason is that the direct free kick is so handsome!

He must become a master of free kicks!
