Champion’s Heart

v2 Chapter 15: Starting

Although it is a warm-up match, the coaching staff still attaches great importance to this game. So as in the official youth team game, coach Ecker announced the starting lineup for tomorrow's game the day before the game.

When he remembered Zhou Yi's name, his teammates all looked sideways at Zhou Yi, but no one was too surprised to make any abnormal noise.

Because Zhou Yi's ability has been seen by all his teammates in his usual training, such a player is indeed capable of starting in this team.

Coupled with the previous experience of the two sides, the Dortmund U17 youth team accepted Zhou Yilai very quickly.

It was Zhou Yi himself, who was a little surprised that he could start in the game so quickly.

Although he also wants to play, he also feels that he should not start too fast. What are his shortcomings, he is still very clear, so he worked hard in physical training.

Of course, if he can play as soon as possible, he will naturally be happy.

It's just... he glanced at Mark with some worry.

I'm a starter, what about Mark? If Mark still misses the game, Zhou Yike is not happy.

He turned to look at Mark, but saw Mark secretly giving him a thumbs-up.

Ugh.

Zhou Yi sighed in his heart.

Mark is really a good person, I hope good people have good rewards...

Thinking about it, I heard head coach Eckel saying: "Mark Wagner."

Mark was obviously taken aback. He reflexively said: "Ah?" He didn't understand why the head coach suddenly called his name. He thought he and Zhou Yi's little interaction was seen by the head coach. Criticism.

But the reaction of other teammates was different, and there was a commotion in the crowd-Mark Wagner, the youth team's ten-year substitute, even entered the starting list!

Although it was only a warm-up match, it was still shocking enough for anyone who knew Mark.

However, Zhou Yi is very happy, really good people have good rewards!

He also turned back to mark Mark with a thumbs up, and at the same time used his mouth to remind Mark, who is still stunned: You have started!

Mark finally reacted and he shouted excitedly: "Bang!"

This caused laughter from teammates.

"Okay, okay." Ecker pressed his palm down. "It's just warming up, don't be so excited."

The teammates laughed louder.

Mark calmed down and scratched his head embarrassedly, but his inner excitement still showed on his face and could not be restrained.

After finishing the training, on the way home, Mark could not wait to announce to his dad that he would start the game tomorrow.

Old Wagner is also very happy: "Really?! That's great, we will all come to see your game tomorrow, Mark!"

"Hey!" Mark scratched his head and smirked.

Back home, the old Wagner yelled as soon as he entered the door, "Wife! Wife! Our Mark is starting!"

Mrs. Wagner, who was busy in the kitchen, heard that the whirlwind usually rushed out of the kitchen, and then hugged Mark: "Oh! My good son! I know! I know you must do it!"

The three people embraced in front of Zhou Yi and celebrated.

It's just the start of a friendly match...

Looking at this scene, Zhou Yi couldn't help but think, if their son would start in the Bundesliga, how would they celebrate?

Have a big carnival party?

In celebration, Mrs. Wagra discovered Zhou Yi was watching beside her, remembering Zhou Yi, so she asked Mark: "Is it just your starting?"

Mark naturally understood what his mother was asking and replied: "Of course Zhou Yi also started!"

Mrs. Wagner cheered and rushed to Zhou Yi: "This is really a day to celebrate!"

So Zhou Yi was also involved in the celebration of this family...

During the special training in the evening, Mark suddenly asked Zhou Yi nervously: "Are we going to make targeted special training?"

Zhou Yi was a little surprised: "How are you going to do targeted special training in the game? There is no Dusseldorf U17 in this game at all?"

"Uh... what about the first team in Düsseldorf?" Mark didn't give up.

"No, they are not even in the second division."

Mark sighed.

Zhou Yi is strange: "This is nothing to care about, Mark? This is just a warm-up game, and the opponent is very weak."

"You're right, Zhou Yi. If it was before, I wouldn't care about this game at all. Anyway, it is difficult for me to play in the official game, so it doesn't matter what the warm-up game is. The coach let me play. It’s just that the main players want to rest.” Unexpectedly, Mark said very seriously. "I know where I am, and I have no hope for my future... To be honest, I have no hope. My sister said that I am not suitable for playing football. I am not convinced, but sometimes I have to admit in my heart that maybe she said Right."

Seeing Mark saying so, Zhou Yi wanted to comfort him, saying something like "You also have your advantage".

But before waiting for him to speak this time, he heard Mark continue to say: "But this time is different. I don't know why the head coach put me on the starting list. I used to be a substitute for the warm-up game. But I I think this should be my chance. I want to seize this opportunity, I want to win a real starter. Zhou Yi, I also..."

Speaking of which, Mark paused, seemingly summoned up the courage to say, "I also want to go to the first team!"

Zhou Yi looked at Mark, who was so serious that he had a sweat on his forehead, as if he remembered the teammates he met in the reality show. Where are they now? Are you still working hard for your dreams?

"mark."

"what?"

"You can definitely go to the first team!" Zhou Yi said. "What do you think of a hat trick tomorrow?"

The first half made Mark happy, and the second half he was surprised: "Hat, hat trick? Can I?"

"Did you forget our "special training"? What is the "special training" used for? Is it just used to pretend to be cool? If it is not useful, what kind of "special training"?" Zhou Yi thinks Mark is good , That is, lack of self-confidence. Of course, this is also justifiable. It is strange that a person who has been on the team for so many years should have enough confidence in himself.

After all, there are not many people like Sakuragi Flower Road.

Hearing Zhou Yi mentioned "special training", Mark really came to confidence.

Yes, special training!

I also made progress!

In the world in the evening, Zhou Yi found that he had one more opponent to play, which happened to be the U17 youth team in Düsseldorf.

With teams that can't be found in live football, thanks to the system's perfect mapping of reality, Zhou Yi can finally play against this team in advance and touch their bottom.

To be honest, although Zhou Yi comforted Mark and said that Düsseldorf is a very weak team, whether this team is weak or not is not known.

So Zhou Yi had just entered the system and couldn't wait to play a game with the U17 youth team in Düsseldorf.

He used today's head coach Ecker's starting lineup to deal with this team, and finally played an 8:0.

The strength of the opponent is really much worse than the Dortmund youth team.

Zhou Yi himself completed four assists and one goal in the game. In the post-match scoring, he scored second only to Mark Wagner who staged a hat trick-he said that he did it, even in the virtual world, Partnering with the virtual Mark, he also wants the other party to complete a hat trick.

This evening, Zhou Yi and the U17 youth team of Düsseldorf played eight games in full. He studied everyone on the other side.

The reason why such a weak team is so important is because Zhou Yike does not want to have anything in case, he wants to make sure that everything is foolproof.

As Mark said, this game is an opportunity. Although he did not know the real purpose of the coaching staff to arrange his start in this warm-up match, but he can feel it, it is impossible for him to play for no reason. If he performs well, the coaching staff certainly has no reason not to let him continue playing.

Zhou Yi does not intend to stay in U17 for too long, so every game opportunity must be seized.

Klopp promised to let him play in the first team, but whether or not it depends on whether he is fighting or not.

※※※

The next day, because it was a game day and it was the home game, the team did not arrange any training. Players can only go to the Bracker training base two hours before the game-the youth team's games are generally scheduled at At the training bases of their respective clubs, tickets are not sold externally, nor are they broadcast live.

Mark is still a little nervous, and Zhou Yike is more calm.

Mark wonders why Zhou Yi is so calm.

Zhou Yi made Mark speechless.

"I have played against Barcelona, ​​Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Manchester United, Arsenal... the youth teams of the rich teams have played against the youth team of Düsseldorf. What's so tense?"

Mark has nothing to say.

From the experience of the game, Zhou Yi may not necessarily have more games he played, but from the perspective of the size of the world, Zhou Yi is definitely stronger than his Dortmund bun.

At the very least Mark did not compete with the youth teams of Barcelona and Real Madrid.

And he heard Zhou Yi said that when they returned to Barcelona, ​​they also defeated the La Masia youth team!

That's amazing.

Any young player who plays football is well aware of the strength of the La Masia youth team.

Think of it this way, person Zhou Yi does have the qualification to not be nervous.

But Zhou Yi is not nervous~lightnovelpub.net~ does not mean that Mark will not be nervous.

He will still be nervous.

Seeing that he was nervous, Zhou Yi had to appease him: "Relax, Mark. You will definitely complete a hat trick today. Because I sleep and dream that you are alone in the ternary."

"Your dream spirit, Zhou Yi?" Mark was still not at ease.

"It's called "God's Prophecy"!" Zhou Yi gave himself a compliment.

"Ok, I trust you……"

In fact, Zhou Yi can also directly tell Mark of Düsseldorf’s weaknesses, but then he can’t explain why he knows a team he has never seen before.

The excuses of "veteran fans" and "fanatical FM players" can be used once or twice, but not both.

Even if you want to tell Mark’s weakness, you have to use other methods.
