ball magic

After the chairman of Deportivo, the shrewd Rendoiro frequently sought gold in the transfer market, but he was not a fool like Old Hill (the chairman of Atletico Madrid). He knew that spending money to buy people was not a long-term solution, so he began to build It belongs to the youth training system of Deportivo.

Currently in charge of the youth training camp is Fernando Vazquez, a good friend of Deportivo's coach Arsenio who just got out of class.

We'll call him Vazquez for now, and Vazquez has been watching Raphael since he saw him.

The reason is simple, he has seen the video of Rafael's game at Boca provided by Anderson.

No one is more obsessed with the number 10 jersey than the Argentine!

Whether they're a striker, a midfielder, whatever level of league they're in, they're hungry for that number, even in the U15s.

And Boca Juniors is one of the most powerful clubs in Argentina, and even in South America. A young player who can wear the No. 10 jersey of Boca. Even if he hasn't played football for a year, he still hopes that this is a rough stone with gems—— Although only looking at the appearance, there is no need to polish it, it is dazzling.

His observation also made him aware of some very interesting details.Whether it's Rafael's almost paralyzed expression, or his more professional and skilled warm-up habits than the first-team South American players (mainly from Brazil) in the warm-up.

Rafael appeared in front of him after completing the warm-up.

Seeing that he had no intention of speaking, Vazquez asked him to wait for a while, checked the time on his watch, and then blew the whistle to let the u17 players who had been watching the excitement not far away and pointed at Rafael gather.

The players were automatically divided into two teams. Vazquez patted Rafael on the shoulder and said, "You go to the vest group."

Vazquez then waved to a teenager named Juan and said a few words to him.

One minute later, the Spanish teenager with unruly long hair, who looked more like an Argentine player than Rafael, walked up to Rafael and looked up at him, jealous of his face and figure, This kid's figure looks like he can play as a u1 defender!

"What did you grow up eating?"

Raphael glanced at him, ignoring him.

Juan also knew that he asked a boring and stupid question, but Raphael's attitude made him quite displeased. He muttered some slang before saying: "We will pass the ball to you. You're on your own. A striker is going to score goals, you know?"

Raphael looked at the little man who was more than half his head lower than him, and walked away coldly.

Since he can practice and study in the virtual space, he doesn't waste a day.Calculated based on 8 hours of sleep per day, that is 40 hours, excluding rest and study time, even if calculated based on 30 hours, 900 hours per month, after 11 months, not counting the 6 hours of practice he practiced every day in reality, this number has already broken Ten thousand!

Practicing almost like an ascetic, successfully promoted to Ajax U19, and easily won the Dutch Youth League championship trophy, which not only allowed him to find his "self" back then, but also established his self-confidence that he never had before and pride.

Not to mention coming to Deportivo for trial training, he is fearless even going to Real Madrid to compete with Raul.In fact, if Anderson didn't come to his door, he would choose to participate in Real Madrid's annual public trial.

Of course, coming to Depco also has the benefits of Depco.

It is actually not difficult to become famous and attract the interest of Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​just kill them in the game!

The more painful and ruthless the beating, the faster the poaching will come!

Isn't the choice of the La Liga duo after being violently beaten particularly tacit?

It is the same reason that Raphael is too lazy to pay attention to the small captain Juan who has a sense of superiority. Instead of wasting more time in the game, it is better to prove his strength through the game.

He understood this truth when he was 8 years old and was sent to football school by Veronica.

Vazquez is a kind man.

He also told Rafael about simple tactics, "We played 442 last season, how is your header?"

"Not bad." Raphael popped out a word.

He has grown to such a height, and choosing the position of forward, of course, he does not allow his header ability to be hindered, just as he does not allow himself to be evaluated by the Ajax coach as "half-legged".

Fortunately, he seems to have a bit of talent in this area. Judging from the results of his saving class time and playing against Ajax's young players, he can even be called very good.

"That's the easiest thing, I ask them to cross you, you move in this range. You have 20 minutes." Vazquez said.

Raphael nodded, seeing that he had nothing to say and walked towards the court.

This kid is really cool, if he can start, the little girl will be fascinated!Vazquez laughed at the thought of his daughter.

Juan gave Rafael a blank look after Raphael came on the field, Vazquez glanced at him after seeing it, and Juan touched his nose.

Because it was a trial training prepared for Rafael, the vest team where Rafael was in kicked off, and the ball was naturally at Rafael's feet.Juan was waiting for him to pass the ball, and found that the kid had gone forward, but the ball did not pass to the midfielder——

He brought it himself!

What the hell does this kid mean!The small universe of Juan and his teammates exploded at this moment, but they still rushed forward subconsciously, because the kid had already reached the restricted area!

Rafael, who led to the resumption of dribbling, did not intend to pass the ball from the beginning.

Why pass the ball?

Compared with teammates with unfamiliar abilities, he chose to create goals by himself in these 20 minutes.

So as soon as the game started, Raphael ran at full speed. He had already observed the positions of the defensive players. The defensive players are ready to encircle, and they are not afraid.

too slow.

Compared with Ajax, which is rooted in the concept of total defense and blood, the defensive ability of these teenagers in Depor is weaker.

This made Rafael almost relaxed and freehand, and used a Matthews to complete the turn and get rid of before the three of them closed in. This is also Messi's forte.After passing the fourth player, there are only two central defenders in front of him.

Vazquez's eyes had already widened, because Rafael's speed was so fast that his eyes couldn't keep up with the rhythm!

He doesn't even care if the goal is scored!This speed!This dribble!Don't even want this fucking Boca?

It is extravagant!

More surprised than him was Rafael's (future) agent Anderson, the overly serious sports reporter of the fifth TV station, with an extremely complicated expression at the moment, mixed with a trace of regret - Real Madrid, in fact, is very good, even in the Red Light District!

Although the two central defenders were obviously nervous, they cooperated well. One stepped forward to interfere, and the other had already held his position.

Rafael's speed of dribbling the ball did not stop at all, and he did not change his stopping route. It was just that the ball had already passed through his wicket (under the crotch) at the moment when the two were about to meet, and Rafael avoided it perfectly. In order to make contact with his body, he finished the shot with his left foot the next moment!

Vazquez was stunned for a second, then asked the Auriol brothers and Veronica who was smiling all over his face at the moment, "I remember he was a right-footed player in the video?"

Only Veronica could answer this question. She smiled slyly with pride, and answered quite reservedly, "I only know that he shot with his left foot."

Vazquez didn't stop the game, although Rafael used 10 seconds to make the remaining 20 minutes meaningless.

The little players on the field didn't plan to continue after Raphael scored such a goal!

At this moment, no matter whether they were on the same team as Raphael or were passed by, almost all of them surrounded Raphael, chirping and asking him a bunch of questions, mainly wanting to know how he made his first move.

Rafael was still cool and reached out to the goalkeeper for the ball. With a sweep of his eyes, he asked the long-haired Juan to demonstrate it once.

"Fried meatballs" is actually just a very simple movement. The most important thing to do this movement is to trick the opposing player to stretch his feet first and shift his center of gravity.

Future Barcelona player "Little White" Iniesta is very good at doing this move, as is the reappearance of the mascot, Messi.

Raphael's "fried meatballs" are not as elegant and delicate as Iniesta's, because the price of elegance is slow speed; nor are they as efficient as Messi's, because Messi's reaction speed is unmatched, which is close to " Instinct" is an unsolvable way of playing football.

He also chose his instinct——

Before you step out, use your brain first.

Before he made this action, he had predicted the opponent's reaction.If the opponent is fooled, he will continue to break through. If the opponent is not fooled, he will make the next move.

Rafael has loved this game since he was a child, over and over again.It's just that no one wants to be his company, which makes him cherish the opportunity to compete.

Of course, cherish the practice materials in front of you.

He practiced the long-haired Juan three times, the first time was at normal speed, the second time was slowed down, and the third time was a slow demonstration, and he explained several essentials.

For these children who have been trained since childhood, "croquettes" are really too simple, so simple that they immediately asked Juan to imitate them!

Juan was stunned at first, then glared at the past, and finally looked at Raphael unhappily——

This kid, why did you choose him as a "stake"!

Vazquez chatted with Anderson for a few minutes, he asked Rafael to wait for a while, and then he disappeared for a few minutes, and when he reappeared, there was an extra Lendoiro beside him, and he seemed to be dressed like a young man. The people who train the coaches, and the number 20 players behind them.

A trace of satisfaction flashed in Raphael's eyes, and he saw that following the coach's order, all the participating players were changed except for him and Long-haired Juan.

According to Rafael's guess, these are most likely to be u18 players, or u19.

Raphael slowly stepped forward to wait for the re-kick-off, and then his vest was pulled.

He glanced coldly, and saw Juan looking at him with a complicated expression. After seeing his face, he seemed to have forgotten to say anything. He froze on the spot stupidly, and said after two seconds: "Well, this is u18 of."

Raphael nodded, expressing understanding.

Seeing that he didn't care, Juan was a little crazy, and didn't bother to explain.

U18 is actually the dividing line in the Spanish youth training system. Young players have to make a choice between career and hobbies. In the Eredivisie, the age is 19. For example, the youth league that Raphael played in the virtual world is actually u19 , and in the UK is also u18, youth over the age of 18, has been unable to compete in the "Youth FA Cup".

The Eredivisie has a youth league, the Premier League's most watched is the FA Youth Cup, and La Liga also has a youth league and a youth league that was renamed the U90 Honor League in 19.

But because this league has to run around the country and burn too much money (La Liga clubs are too poor except Real Madrid and Barcelona), it has attracted a wave of withdrawals, and the Spanish Football Association decided to restructure!After the restructuring, u19 became u18, and the league was divided into 6 groups.Divided according to the distance of the region, each group can produce a champion.

6 titles too many?

Then come a Champions League, doesn't it look like the nba playoffs?

In order to adapt to the new competition system that only started this season, Deportivo's u18 is also the focus. There is only one level difference between u17 and u18, and all the elite of u17 have gone to u18.

Juan wanted to remind Raphael, but he didn't bother to talk to him when he saw his stinky face!

Let you pull!

Why don't you go to heaven!

Before the game started, another young man who looked like the leader of u18 said to Rafael: "You run by yourself, and the ball will find you."

Raphael glanced at him and nodded slightly in response.

His gesture was naturally unwelcome. This time, the young man didn't seem to think that he was a thorn, so he glared at him before walking away.

The world of young players may be complicated, and it will not be "complicated" in front of the youth training director and the club chairman. After the game restarted, Raphael did not strive to perform at first, that is to say, he did not actively run. He was mainly observing his own teammate.

After watching it for a minute or two, he saw something. Deportivo u2's defense is also unreliable, but the short pass penetration is quite good. The young man who just glared at him is also good at developing long passes. One of his balls, the landing point is well controlled, and it is easy to adjust.

After understanding the tactics, Raphael also knew how to play.

Argentine football has followed the Spanish style. Of course, because the entire South America except Brazil basically speaks Spanish, short pass penetration is also the style of South American football. He has no difficulty adapting to it. This is why Argentine players are the first choice for landing in the five major leagues. It's all Spanish - language is not a barrier, and the style of play is compatible.

As soon as Rafael's running became active, he started to ask for the ball, and the ball was delivered to his feet.

Compared with these teenagers whose average age is two or three years older than him, Rafael has an absolute advantage in body. His natural physique, speed, deliberate pursuit, and acquired flexibility and flexibility allow him to hold the ball without using it. "Fried meatballs", there is no "Matthews is extraordinary", without these skills, you can just dribble and sway in the middle.

The ball is always moving under his feet, changing and jumping with his turning, but it is always controlled within the controllable range of his feet. If you slow down his speed several times, you can see that almost every The movement with the ball, every turn, the distance between the ball and his feet is exactly the same.

It is also because Rafael has slowed down this time. Although the speed of dribbling is still lively and unrestrained, in the eyes of the knowledgeable Vazquez and his colleagues, this is the dancing of football, graceful and colorful!

This kind of dribbling can no longer be called dribbling. If it is more accurately described, this thing should be called art!

Such a unique style of dribbling, as long as he makes an appearance in the five major leagues, within half a season, the title of dribbling master will definitely not be lost!What's more, all the master dribblers, except for the cyclists like butterflies, are all regular trips to La Liga, which is easy to add!

Rafael just completed the flat trip to the center at this moment. From receiving the ball to passing four people in a row, to the final shot, he always controlled the rhythm.

And all the way, he played it to his heart's content, and no one could snatch the ball from his feet.

After completing this shot, the first thing Rafael did was to look at his sister on the sidelines.

Veronica looked at him with bright eyes, which were watery.

She didn't know when Rafael's style of play was completely transformed, but she could imagine how much effort and sweat he had put in to dance on the green again and play freely!

She gave Raphael a big smile before the tears fell, holding her hands up and giving her a thumbs up.

Her Raphael deserves countless times of praise!

Compared to her pride, the Anderson and Oriol brothers were amazed, and the former was countless times more amazed than the latter!

He was originally just a big gamble, betting that Raphael might recover the spirituality he saw in the video tape, but he didn't expect to harvest such a treasure!

Rafael's dribbling speed this time is not as fast as before, reminding him of the lightning that pierced the long night, but it is still flowing.

In fact, the brothers are not very good at blowing.

In the far east, a certain football program that was only established in 2000, when doing the Raphael topic, only dribbled and changed a few fancy rotations.

What is "the pen is swayed, the changes are endless, if there is God's help, lotuses will grow step by step".

What is "singing and dancing, swaying the magnificent poems on the greenery".

2000 is too far away, on July 1995, 7, on the occasion of the first anniversary of rebirth, Rafael, who has worked hard for tens of thousands of class hours on the beach, school, and in the virtual space, is only concerned about his sister's tears and thumbs up And reveal a smile.

For him, the praises of the whole world cannot compare to this moment.
