Chapter 099 Applause! For the Wandering Laymen 6/9
Juan Carlos had despair on his face, and he subconsciously glanced at the sidelines.
After what happened yesterday, he has become more sensible and knows that now at Sporting Gijon is his last chance.
In training and in the current competition, Carlos went all out. He wanted to show his abilities to everyone and prove his football strength to Li Ang.
Before Li Ang made the adjustment just now, everything was going in a good direction.
He did a good job on the defensive end, making it difficult for the main team's forward Antonio Fernandez Abarez to get any decent opportunities.
However, with the coach's adjustment, everything changed.
Carlos was suppressed in the aerial battle, and Javier Blanco, a player who was not as tall as him, actually completed a beautiful lion's head above his head to score.
This was a huge blow to Carlos.
This child is in pain right now.
In fact, there is a story behind Carlos being terminated by Getafe.
One of the key factors was his poor performance in heading the ball, which was a fundamental reason that prompted Getafe youth team coach Gonzalo to give up on him and the club terminated his contract.
The disastrous defeat to Real Madrid by Leon, to be more precise, can only be said to be a trigger that prompted Getafe and Carlos to terminate their contract.
Li Ang is not clear about this, and Mr. Tomirez, an independent scout, has not 'explored' this point either.
Carlos is very clear about his situation. He knows where his shortcomings are. This kid has also been insisting on heading training, hoping to improve.
However, it is obvious that the improvement of header level does not happen overnight. Progress can be said to be extremely slow.
Under such circumstances, Li Ang gave him the opportunity to come to Gijon to play football. Carlos said to himself that he must cherish this opportunity and perform well!
His shortcomings were a thorn in his heart. He secretly vowed to continue training in heading and improve himself. At the same time, he also hoped that this shortcoming would be discovered by the coach as late as possible. In this case, he could rely on his own
If his performance leaves a good impression on the coach, then even if this shortcoming is discovered, the coach should see his other strengths and continue to give him the opportunity to stay on the team and play.
Carlos never expected that Leon's vision was so good. After he joined Sporting Gijon, he discovered his shortcomings in the team's first intra-squad match.
If Carlos didn't think anything of Li Ang before, now he has truly realized that this Chinese coach is very powerful and has such a vicious vision!
Players should be happy to have such a high-level coach.
However, at this moment, Carlos couldn't be happy. At this moment, Carlos was a little desperate and painful.
His biggest hope now is that the coach will not give up on him and continue to give him opportunities!
***********
Li Ang shook his head. He was also amused by his thoughts just now. He actually doubted the data, and actually wanted to doubt it and test Carlos' header ability.
The data is indeed the most real!
Carlos saw Li Ang's shaking of his head, and his heart began to sink: Was he going to be given up again?!
He is unwilling!
It was as if there was a knife cutting flesh in his heart!
Because he knows that this opportunity can be said to be his last chance to continue his football path. If Li Ang gives up on him, it will really be impossible for him to continue playing football.
Carlos was ready to be called to the sideline alone by the coach.
However, Li Ang did not do this.
Li Ang waved to assistant coach Fernandez, indicating that the 'test' of Carlos' header ability was over. The team continued the previously arranged training, focusing on ground attack.
Fernandez nodded and adjusted the main team's tactical arrangements.
Parler glanced at Leon. He didn't say anything, but he was shaking his head in his heart. This Juan Carlos has such excellent physical fitness. His performance in the competition just now can be said to be quite good, but...
The shortcomings of the header are too obvious, what a pity!
A central defender with poor heading ability is a fatal shortcoming.
Both Fernandez and Parler looked at Carlos with pity and pity. This kid has such good physical fitness. His prediction and positioning are also very good. But, on that end
Ball...what a pity!
They had gone from being very optimistic about Carlos' career to shaking their heads in denial.
Li Ang was still standing on the sidelines, observing the players' performance in the match.
He didn't say anything, but just standing on the sidelines put great pressure on all the players. Their attitude towards training and games became more positive. The coach's vision was too vicious!
Recovering his previous main coordination and ground attack routine, Carlos' performance on the defensive end has returned to his previous performance. He can stay in position well, complete interceptions in advance, and can also make good use of his body.
Confront the opponent's offensive players and interfere with the opponent's ball-taking and attack.
Li Ang watched all this with interest, he was surprised.
He was surprised by Carlos' current performance. There was no way this kid didn't know that his header shortcomings were 'exposed' just now, and it was impossible that he didn't know what this meant to him.
However, at this moment, Carlos's attitude in training has not been affected in any way. To be precise, he is becoming more serious and working harder.
It can be said that every ball must be fought for!
Are you using this attitude and performance to fight for the last chance?!
Li Ang looked at the child.
He is worthy of being a player with eighty-three points in [Willpower (Determination)]!
Obviously, Li Ang did not stop the game, nor did he 'call' Carlos alone, which gave the child the last hope. He gritted his teeth, let out the uneasy emotions in his heart, and performed as well as possible!
Li Ang nodded. To be honest, he was really satisfied to see Carlos like this, a child with such a tough personality.
Physical fitness is excellent.
[Spiritual Attribute] All-round red!
Such excellent basic conditions!
[Header] attributes are so bad!
Is this a reason to give up on this person?!
No!
Li Ang resolutely said no. Whether it was Carlos's insistence on integrating him under such circumstances or Carlos's excellent basic conditions, he was reluctant to give up such a young man!
Isn’t it just that [heading] ability is terrible?!
I still don’t believe this is evil!
He wants to find a way out for this child!
Even in the face of difficulties, we must find a way to survive!
Just because this kid never gave up.
As a coach, he naturally cannot give up on his players easily.
At this time, on the court, Dias dribbled forward with the ball, but was destroyed by Carlos's beautiful ground tackle.
Li Ang stood on the sidelines and clapped.
This applause seemed so abrupt on the sidelines of the training ground.
After completing the tackle, Carlos got up and turned to look. He happened to see this scene and was shocked.
The coach is applauding!
Are you applauding your own performance?
Yeah?!
Then he saw Li Ang, who seemed to know what he was thinking. Li Ang looked over and gave him a slight thumbs up.
The child's eyes suddenly felt a little sore...
His despair and fearful heart seemed to see a glimmer of light in the darkness!
He gritted his teeth and continued to prepare to defend the opponent's attack!
