Chapter 166 The initial achievement of magic power (please order the full version)
The teammates nodded.
Maybe everyone has no confidence in this game.
But Deng Kai did.
Because... Arteta's whiteboard shows that the adaptability of Wu Xudong, Yu Shihao, Hao Junmin, and Shao Jiawei's passing and controlling tactics has exceeded 85%.
Hao Junmin's understanding is very high, even reaching ninety.
The other midfielders and backfield players on the team are also close to 70%.
This means that this team's passing and possession tactics have been improved.
Before Xiao Cheng, the passing and controlling tactics had very weak combat effectiveness, which was also an important reason why Deng Kai had a very high turnover rate before.
Compared with tactics such as defensive counterattacks and long passes, before passing and control are formed, they are as weak as a pile of mud.
But once you achieve some success, it can provide some positive effects, such as covering up the players' own shortcomings, strengthening the players' technical advantages, converting ball control advantages into scoring advantages, etc.
Today's opponent of Sporting Lisbon is Boavista U17.
Boavista is also a well-known strong team in the Portuguese Super League in recent years, once breaking the monopoly of the three giants on the championship.
Deng Kai's teammate Meireles in the European Junior Championships is the core of this team.
Of course, Meireles has now gone to Boavista U19 to play football.
In fact, if it weren't for playing in the Youth Champions League, he might go directly to the U21.
Last year's Youth Champions League held at the U15 level was a huge success.
Finally, after many considerations, UEFA and the major clubs decided to place this year's Youth Champions League in the U19 age group.
The level of competition in this age group is higher, the stars are more popular, and it is more conducive to attracting investment.
Moreover, U19 stars are right next to many first-team players of clubs, so the business development prospects are good.
Any player who performs well in the UEFA Youth League may be bought by a wealthy club, or he may be directly reused in the first team and become famous with one goal.
This further enhances the brand value of the UEFA Youth League.
Of course, this also means that Deng Kai will miss the Youth Champions League this year.
Unless he jumps from U17 to U19 in the winter window.
In a normal European war, players who transfer in the winter window cannot register for the Champions League.
Ronaldo missed half of the Champions League games because of this.
It took 20 years before the relevant regulations were relaxed, allowing players to re-register in the winter window. Then there was the miracle of Haaland scoring goals for two different teams in the Champions League at the same time in one season.
However, in the Youth Champions League, considering the large flow of youth training players and the instability of the competition, there are no relevant regulations.
This is why Veloso was able to play in the UEFA Youth League in the second half of the season after moving from Benfica to Sporting Lisbon in the winter window last year.
In the first five minutes of the game, Boavista fought very actively, but Sporting Lisbon's possession of the ball was not going smoothly.
In the sixth minute, Hao Junmin lost the ball after being pressed.
He complained to the referee about the foul, but the referee thought it was a normal physical confrontation.
Then Boavista launched a fierce offensive and almost scored a goal.
When the football slid out of the goal, all the fans in the stadium booed.
This is the home ground of Boavista's youth training, and there are more than a thousand fans present.
Their boos were for Hao Junmin and Sporting Lisbon.
Full of ridicule towards Sporting Lisbon who wanted to keep the ball but couldn't.
"It's okay, it's normal. After ten minutes, they can't play like this." Deng Kai exchanged a few words with Hao Junmin, "At this stage, you can move back a little further, and remember to pass the ball back to me.
"
In the first ten minutes or so of the adult event, the pace of the game was actually abnormal.
Much faster.
Because at this time both sides are full of energy and the players are in high spirits.
During this period, no matter whether you are a possession-based team or a counter-attacking team, you are unlikely to be able to occupy the ball and will lose a large amount of the ball.
This is perfectly normal.
For both sides, not conceding a goal at this stage is a victory.
Therefore, although Hao Junmin's mistake was dangerous, it was not unforgivable.
He just didn't do better than expected.
really.
After ten minutes, the football was basically flowing at the feet of Sporting Lisbon.
Deng Kai's running range has expanded a lot this season, which has also enhanced the team's dominance when possessing the ball.
The number of passes and receptions he made by himself even exceeded the number of passes and receptions made by the entire opposing team of Boavista.
The team lost three games in a row, and the absence of Ronaldo was a key reason.
The unsuitability of young Chinese players such as Yu Shihao is a secondary reason.
But there is another important reason, that is, Deng Kai has not fully adapted to his body after his sudden increase in height.
It's not that I can't adapt to this height.
Not even 1.65 meters tall.
The main reason is that after his height increased, Deng Kai's weight, strength, and speed have changed every day in the past two months, and he has become stronger.
It was a very suitable pass in today's training. In two or three days of games, the passing speed would be too fast and the goal would be too much.
Therefore, the forwards collectively could not catch the ball. In addition to their own level, they also shouldered a lot of blame for Deng Kai.
In the past three games, Deng Kai's passes would have made him break out in a cold sweat even if Cristiano Ronaldo came.
Twenty-two minutes.
Sporting Lisbon, which has been conducting football for a long time, has aroused dissatisfaction among surrounding fans.
They booed again.
This behavior is an attack on Sporting Lisbon, but it also reveals that these fans don't understand football very well.
Because people who know football know that when the passing ball makes the fans feel sleepy, the killer move... is not far away.
Twenty-four minutes.
Yu Shihao retreated as usual and received Deng Kai's pass in the middle.
But this time Deng Kai didn't pull away or retreat as usual after playing the ball.
Instead start pre-instrumentation.
The pace of the game suddenly increased at this moment.
Before Deng Kai stepped forward, he gave Yu Shihao a look.
Yu Shihao immediately passed the ball to Deng Kai.
Deng Kai once again passed the ball to Yu Shihao.
The two hit the wall to cooperate and advance together.
Boavista's midfielder rushed towards Deng Kai.
But Deng Kai didn't make any breakthrough attempt, and decisively passed the ball to Hao Junmin, who was following up from the left, and then started to advance forward again.
Hao Junmin received the ball and passed it back to Yu Shihao.
boom!
Yu Shihao made a through ball.
In a short period of time, six or seven consecutive passes instantly penetrated Boavista's defense.
Deng Kai directly challenged the opponent's central defender at the top of the penalty area.
"It's a pity. It would be great if Yu Shihao ran to this position. As a striker, Yu Shihao can pose a greater threat to the opponent's central defender."
"Deng Kai's passing is relatively good, but challenging central defenders is not his strong point. His dribbling is relatively simple and less confusing. His speed is also much slower than Shihao, and it is difficult to overpower the opponent. His body... this
Although Ji Ji has grown taller, his ability to fight has not improved significantly for a while. He..."
"Cycling! Deng Kai is actually riding a bicycle!"
"Three, four, five bicycles in a row! The movements are very coordinated!"
"Boavista's central defender is very capable. He was stable and did not falter."
"Dial the ball! Deng Kai is ready to beat his opponent with speed!"
"Go over! Deng Kai went over...and fell to the ground!"
drop!
A whistle blew.
The referee points to the penalty spot.
At the same time, a yellow card was shown to Boavista's centre-back.
When Deng Kai was about to rush over, he pulled Deng Kai down.
At that time, Deng Kai's foot had already entered the penalty area.
It was difficult for the Boavista team to accept this result. They kept explaining, but the referee's eyes were sharp. This was not a dive, this was an absolute penalty!
