When the team started to warm up, the fans and reporters outside the stadium had no idea what the car parked in front of the goal was for.
It wasn't until Chang Sheng led the team to the car, and then lined up ten footballs about 20 meters away from the car, that everyone knew they were doing shooting practice.
But when it comes to shooting practice...
There is a car in front of the goal. How do you practice this?
Maybe to ask Handanovich to drive away?
So what was the point of him letting Handanovic drive the car into the training ground?
Show off Handanovic's new car to the players? Tell everyone that as long as you renew your contract with the club, you can all afford such a great car?
Journalists are naturally inclined to conspiracy theories.
This is also the only result that they feel is consistent with normal routines after analyzing it.
But what happened next surprised them!
Handanovic, who was wearing goalkeeper uniform, was called to the car alone by Chang Sheng, but instead of letting him drive away, he... stood in front of the car wearing goalkeeper gloves!
Handanovic assumed a goalkeeping posture!
What is this going to do?
A group of people suddenly felt that their IQ was not enough.
※※※
Only a whistle was heard. The first one to shoot was Benzema. He kicked the football towards the goal.
The football he shot was at a relatively straight angle, not very fast, not to mention powerful, weak and weak. Handanovic didn't even move, he directly caught the football in his arms.
Then a rapid whistle sounded.
The roar of Chang Sheng followed closely.
"Karim! Didn't you have breakfast? Or have you been emptied by the girls? You call this a shot? Damn it! My neighbor's three-year-old brat is stronger than you! Damn it!
Damn it! Give me serious training! This is training! This is not a fucking game!"
Benzema was so scolded by Chang Sheng that he had to start over.
The first time, he was indeed out of scruples, and did not use all his strength, and deliberately let the water go. Everyone knows how much Handanovich loves his new car. If this kick directly hit his car, then Han Danovic would be in trouble.
Isn’t Danovich heartbroken to death?
But after being scolded by the boss, I no longer care about this.
Handanovich's anger is not as fierce as the boss's...
So Benzema kicked angrily!
The football touched the ground and hit the goal... No, it was the front wheel of the car!
This kind of sticking to the ground is the most difficult for tall goalkeepers to save, because the speed of the football forward is greater than the speed of their falling to the ground.
But Handanovic was like a civet possessed, and almost instantly, he ran out close to the ground. He reached out and pushed away the football that Benzema shot!
The football bypassed his car and flew toward the back.
※※※
"Wow!" Many fans watching outside the training ground exclaimed.
Because Handanovic's save just now was indeed too quick. He seemed to know where Benzema was going to kick the ball. A 1.92-meter-tall man saved the ball with agility far beyond his body size.
.
"If this was in an official game, it would definitely be selected as one of the top ten saves of the week!" A reporter who thought he worked for a TV station couldn't help but sigh.
However, this reporter defined it a little too early. Soon he will find that there are many saves that can be selected into the top ten saves, far more than ten...
※※※
Chang Sheng stopped the training with the whistle and asked Benzema: "Did you give him a signal before shooting and tell him you were going to shoot here?" He pointed to the front wheel of the car.
Benzema shook his head vigorously: "No, boss. Absolutely not!"
Chang Sheng stared into his eyes for a while. Then he nodded: "Very good, continue!"
Handanovic stood in front of the goal... ah, no, it was his car, and saw Falcao coming out of the crowd.
He adjusted his posture and prepared himself.
Although he only saved two goals, he felt like he was sweating...
Never let your car be hit by a football, even if it is just scratched!
This is what Handanovich believes in his heart.
Falcao stood in front of the football, and he still had the intention to joke with Handanovic. He grinned at Handanovic: "I'm sorry, Samir. I kicked your car then. Don't do it."
Blame me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly kicked the football out!
Damn! Bastard!
Handanovich cursed the cunning tiger in his heart, and shot it out like an arrow as fast as possible.
Falcao's corner kick was from the rear of the Range Rover, and it was a curved kick.
It seems that if the football flies like this, it will not hit the car, but because of the arc, the football will eventually turn back.
Of course, maybe you still can't touch a car. But how dare Handanovich dare to bet on this...
He stood up with all his strength, stretched his arms, and reached for the football.
Finally, he succeeded in grabbing the football with both hands and intercepted it from the air.
But I was a little embarrassed. When I landed, I didn't roll a few times immediately to cushion the force and almost let go of the football.
※※※
The crowd of fans who were watching once again let out exclamations of surprise.
They thought Handanovic would hit the ball with one hand because it was a bit far away. Unexpectedly, Handanovic caught it with both hands!
This save fully demonstrated the advantage of Handanovic's height and long arms.
Reporters who come to cover the team's training also know that Handanovic has been in poor condition recently.
Since the crisis within the team, Handanovic has conceded eight goals in recent league rounds. Although some goals are not his responsibility, it can somewhat illustrate his current problems.
You must know that in the previous seventeen rounds of the league, he only conceded ten goals.
And now they have conceded eight goals in five league games.
The main goalkeeper's unstable condition is also one of the reasons for Lazio's recent poor results.
Some people want to see how Chang Sheng adjusts the goalkeeper's condition.
Lazio's situation is very special. They don't have a reliable substitute goalkeeper. If Handanovic can't do it, there will basically be no one else who can take over. The two substitute goalkeepers drawn from the youth team and the reserve team are both unbearable.
use.
Therefore, if Lazio's performance is to improve, Handanovic's state must be adjusted by Victory.
I just didn’t expect that Chang Sheng used this method to adjust Handanovic’s condition?!
And look at these few saves made by Handanovic... There is no "bad condition" at all!
※※※
In the following training, Handanovic caught the ball from high and low and amazingly did not miss a single goal!
"This is really a superb performance..." Handanovic's goalkeeper coach Blasi couldn't help but shook his head and sighed.
"No, this shows that Samir still has potential to be tapped." Chang Sheng said beside him.
Then he started a new training course.
"Do you think this is over, Samir?" He walked over to Handanovic, who was breathing heavily, and smiled. "Next, we won't practice fixed-point shooting. We will practice shooting while moving after catching the ball.
.”
Handanovich raised his head and looked at Chang Sheng in horror.
"This is the price you pay for not training well before and not paying attention to the game, Samir." Chang Sheng said with a smile.
But in the eyes of Handanovic at this time, the head coach may have transformed into the most terrifying devil in the world...
※※※
The morning training session, including pre-training warm-up and post-training recovery, only lasts for a total of one and a half hours.
The time of all training sessions is this long, and it may even be shorter, but it will not exceed. Why should it be arranged for one and a half hours? Because the official game is also one and a half hours long, so the one and a half hour setting is also followed in training.
It will allow the players' bodies to automatically adapt to the intensity of exercise within an hour and a half, which will help them perform better in the game.
Few players feel that an hour and a half of training is long. Everyone always spends it easily in the rhythm of training, rest, training, and rest, unless the training intensity is particularly intense. And now it is basically all training with the ball and training items.
If you are creative, no one will feel tired or annoyed.
But today Handanovich experienced what is called "seconds are like years".
The one-and-a-half-hour training time seemed to him like a whole century had passed... He was enduring every minute. He felt that he would be unable to hold on any longer and choose to give up.
He had this idea in his mind: Let the football hit the car... I really can't hold on...
But every time he thinks about it, he will think about the fact that he paid 80,000 euros for this car! It has only been driven for more than a week, and he is careful not to get hit...if he is kicked by a football, he is really
Not willing to give in!
When he very embarrassedly saved Modric's shot that was not a big threat, he just lay on the ground motionless. He couldn't get up and he had no strength at all.
Fortunately, Chang Sheng also blew the whistle to end the morning training.
"Well done, guys. I believe you will gain a lot from this morning's training!" Chang Sheng said.
Many players are thinking in their hearts: Isn't it a lot to gain? Now everyone knows, don't be distracted in training and games, otherwise tomorrow you may become today's Handanovic...
Looking at him lying motionless on the turf, it really makes people worry whether he is dead.
A group of people secretly glanced at Handanovich behind Chang Sheng.
"Okay. Let Rudy lead you in some recovery training, then let's disband."
After Chang Sheng finished speaking, he turned and walked towards Handanovich.
Then he knelt down next to Handanovich.
"Are you still alive, Samir?" He looked at Handanovich, who was lying motionless on the ground, with only his back rising and falling due to breathing.
Handanovich weakly responded: "I'm okay, boss..."
"I just saw it and there wasn't even a centimeter scratch on your car. You did a good job. But if you could work so hard in previous games and trainings, I think you don't have to be like this today.
"
"I know...Boss, I know...it's my fault..."
"You don't have to train with the team this afternoon. You can go get a massage and relax."
Chang Sheng reached out and patted Handanovich's back twice.
And Handanovich was so tired that he didn't even have the strength to answer him.
