football superstar

In the Deportivo training base, coach Fernando Vazquez stands on the sidelines and supervises the players in training.

He is holding a small book in his hand, which is Vazquez's habit. Now La Liga has reached the 9th round, but Deportivo has only a pitiful 9 points, ranking second from the bottom.

"Relegation, this is our highest goal, Fernando, I hope we can succeed in relegation."

Vazquez sighed in his heart while pressing the cap on the ballpoint pen. It was not that he felt that relegation was hopeless. After all, there was only one-third of the schedule now, and everything was still possible to work hard, but the timing of his entry was really not good. .

In the last round of the league, La Coruña played against Levante. After losing 3:0 at home, the club directly fired the former head coach and invited Vazquez to take over as the firefighting coach.

The opponent in the next game is Real Madrid, the league leader. Deportivo, No.2 from the bottom, will go to the Bernabeu to challenge the top team away.

But this is not a big deal. Just the day before the trip to Madrid, the substitute goalkeeper Lux sprained his ankle during training and was carried away by the team doctor while lying down.

"Orens, is Lux's inspection report out yet?" Vazquez pressed the pen cap more and more frequently.

Assistant coach Orens could see the impatience of the head coach, and hurriedly said: "After the preliminary examination, the sprain is not serious, and it is expected to recover in three weeks."

"Three weeks, which means he will miss at least four league rounds."

Vazquez frowned, feeling that La Coruña was really not favored by the goddess of luck.

Looking at the players who were training in groups, Vazquez made a decisive decision: "Go, help me bring the goalkeeper of the second team over. From today onwards, he can train with the first team."

Orens nodded and turned to leave.

"What's the kid's name?" Vazquez was not familiar with the second team because he had just taken office.

Orens has been working in Deportivo all the time. He understands the players of all echelons clearly, and replied without thinking: "Thomas Friedrich Clemens just passed his 19th birthday."

19 years old, really a flowery age.I'm going to the Bernabeu with a 19-year-old baby, and Vazquez just smiled wryly at the thought.

Hope nothing goes wrong tomorrow.

Clemens didn't look excited when he was brought to the first-team training ground, his face was calm, he wore gloves, and after a brief greeting with Vazquez, he ran around and followed his future team-mates to start running laps Son.

Neither the head coach nor the players will take the match against Real Madrid lightly. They are very nervous, and the injury to the substitute goalkeeper at the critical moment before the game is even worse.

When Clemens came to the training ground, many eyes were on him, and everyone's first reaction when seeing the boy was: What a handsome boy.

The dark golden hair looked very smooth, combed behind the ears meticulously, and the deep facial features and blue eyes added a lot of points to him.Different from the rough skin of athletes, maybe because he is still young, the skin quality of the teenager is very good, it looks like the color of milk from a distance.

He was talking to Basil, the boy was tall, Basil had to raise his head to face him, but the boy had no expression on his face, just nodded from time to time, his expression focused.

The young Nelson muttered in a low voice: "He looks younger than me, it's great that I'm not the youngest at last."

Veteran Pablo shook his head, looking calm: "He's too thin, and it's not good to be young. The shouting and tsunami of Real Madrid fans will frighten him."

"But we have no choice, right? Lux can't go with us, the coach can't just bring a goalkeeper." The main goalkeeper Alan Subia winked at his teammates, telling them to stop and say goodbye to the newcomer. When the children were discussing, I greeted them with a smile and said, "Hi, I'm Alan Subia."

The boy hesitated for a moment, then reached out and shook hands with Alan Subia: "Thomas Friedrich Clemens."

"Does it sound like you're Spanish?" Not just the name, but the teenager spoke with a strong accent in Spanish.

The boy nodded, still expressionless: "My father is Spanish and my mother is Portuguese."

Alan Subia took this as he was nervous, didn't say anything more, and took him to join the team's training with a smile, while the boy ran around while keeping his eyes open.

Just a few days earlier, Clemens had slammed into the woodwork during a save in training, killing the poor lad and being replaced by another soul.

Daoist Shen Qing, who failed to cross the tribulation, got into this body, and while gaining a new life, he also accepted his identity as a goalkeeper.

People who practice Taoism pay attention to the cycle of cause and effect. Shen Qing has lived for hundreds of years, and he has long since had no desires or desires.

This is cause and effect, at least Daoist Shen Qing wants to end the wish of this body.

Become the greatest goalkeeper and claim the Hercules Cup.

Poor Daoist Shen Qing spent a lot of time just trying to remember this sentence, the Hercules Cup?What is that, why do foreign friends have such strange names?

And just when Clemens somehow understood what a goalkeeper is and didn't understand the Hercules Cup, he was lifted from the youth team to the first team because of the injury of the second goalkeeper.

"Let's go in groups of two later." Lively Nelson slowed down his running speed, stopped beside Clemens and winked at him.

Clemens didn't know what the grouping was, so he could only nod his head, and then ran calmly, breathing without any disorder.For him, breathing is just the most basic, and running only needs to adjust the breathing and rhythm without any difficulty.

Circle after circle, many old players had already stopped and gathered together to do warm-up activities, only a few young people with excess energy were still running.

The gray-haired Vazquez squinted his eyes. He could see that the easiest runner among these young people was Clemens. The main goalkeeper of the second team seemed to have the physical strength not to lose to others, but this It's useless for goalkeepers.

Clapping his hands, Vazquez shouted to these little guys with excess energy: "Okay, save your energy, there will be a tough battle tomorrow, now train in groups, work hard, boys, I will judge you according to your performance." on the starting list."

The new head coach, against Real Madrid, became famous with one goal. Although it is pressure, it is also motivation. Deportivo players gather together in twos and threes for training.

The training subjects are different in different positions. Clemens is a little unclear about these methods of consuming energy, so he can only cast his eyes on Alan Subia.

Alan Subia smiled at Clemens, picked up a ball, and said: "It is not easy to go from the second team to the first team, Thomas, but compared with other positions, the goalkeeper's position is always the same. It's better to adapt, all you need to do is block all the balls, and that's your victory."

Clemens nodded, seemingly affirming him, but in fact Clemens memorized every word of Alan Subia firmly in his head.

Good goalkeeper, Hercules Cup.Clemens felt that he should at least fulfill the first of the two wishes.

"You shoot first, I'll keep the goal, and then we switch." Alan Subia gave the ball to Clemens, and then he turned his head and stood in front of the goal, bending slightly to face him.

Clemens looked at the ball in his hand. He had been in the second team for a while and knew the meaning of shooting. As long as he sent the ball into the big goal, he would win.For Clemens, he has always been a little puzzled, why the goal is so big but the foreign friends of the second team can't kick it in, and now he has a chance to try it himself.

Putting the ball on the ground, Clemens asked Alan Subia: "Just kick it in?"

Alan Subia nodded, thinking that this little guy was really nervous, isn't this nonsense.

But right away, he didn't have the mind to think about anything else, because he saw that Clemens didn't run up but stood directly behind the ball, leaned slightly, swung his right leg, and hit the ball with his foot. In an instant, the football shot out like a shell. Alan Subia didn't even have the slightest reaction. By then the ball was already quietly in the net.

Alan Subia stared at Clemens, only to find that the 19-year-old had no expression on his face like a sculpture, looked at him calmly, and said, "Okay, it's your turn."

Alan Subia is more than 30 years old, and he is an old goalkeeper with experience and qualifications, but now he can feel his heart beating fast.

"Why do you become a goalkeeper with such good shooting skills?" Alan Subia asked while picking up the ball.

"Being a goalkeeper is Clemens' dream." The boy said solemnly, and then stood in front of the goal in a daze.

Clemens is very tall, close to 1.9 meters, and there will be a tendency to continue to develop in the future.When he stood in front of the goal, he was like a bamboo pole, stuck straight there, with his hands hanging down and motionless.

Alan Subia shook his head in his heart, is this kid just guarding the gate like this?Without even lowering the center of gravity, the goalkeeper can easily fail to fall when encountering a rolling ball.

But Alan Subia didn't say much, but put the ball on the ground, run up, and shoot!

"boom!"

He has a lot of strength and speed, but Clemens, standing up straight, seems to block the ball at will.

It seems to be a very easy action, but Alan Subia thinks that he shot too directly.

Alan Subia did not intend to exchange positions, but took another ball and continued to shoot. Clemens didn't say anything, just stood and looked at him calmly.

When the situation here was discovered by Vazquez, Alan Subia had already kicked more than ten balls, and what Vazquez saw was Alan Subia, who was panting, and Clemens, who was still calm.

"You need to rest." Vazquez went up and patted Alan Subia on the shoulder.

But it was Alan Subia who greeted him with a slightly excited face: "Coach, I think you have found a future top goalkeeper."
