v2 Chapter 12: Smart birds must also fly first

  Three days later, Schalke U19 ushered in the last match of the 2006-07 season in the German U19 Youth League, in the national third-place battle against the Stuttgart U19 youth team.

   The third place battle has always been tasteless. Since losing to Bayern Munich U19 in the semi-finals, in fact in the hearts of everyone on the team, this season has ended. Schalke U19 has only one goal in the league each year: the championship.

  Zhou Tiancheng did not register for the Youth League roster, so it is logical that there is no possibility of his appearance. His Schalke U19 debut can only be postponed until next season.

   But Elgart did not let him stay at the base alone, but let him follow the whole team to the scene, thinking about the difference between the Youth League and the University League first.

   This game is scheduled in the afternoon. The kick-off time of the German Youth League follows the convention, usually the first day before the first team match kick-off, the round and the first team Bundesliga progress is consistent. So by this time in early May, the U19 Youth League and the Bundesliga had reached the final moment. The last round of the Schalke 04 first-team league will sit at home against Bielefeld.

Zhou Tiancheng had the first opportunity to walk into the Veltins Arena to watch the game. When he arrived at the stadium, he sighed to himself: "This is the Veltins Arena? It must be wonderful to play here. ."

When he said this, Elgart just walked next to him to take the mineral water, frowning lightly, and then followed his words seriously: "Zhou, you are very right. But correct you a bit, do not call this fee in the future. Altyn Arenas, ask him to go to Schalke!"

  In the second half of the sentence, Elgart raised some tones, and Zhou Tiancheng could only nod and agree.

  After he walked away, Zhou Tiancheng turned his head and quietly asked Hevedus sitting next to him: "Why did he suddenly do this?"

  Hevedes smiled, patted Zhou Tiancheng's shoulder, and whispered: "You didn't blame you at the beginning, but you should pay attention in the future, you can only say that you are here to Schalke! Otherwise, you may cause trouble for yourself."

Zhou Tiancheng was puzzled, and Hevedes continued to explain: "Two years ago, the club sold the naming rights of this stadium to a **** beer maker. This is what you said about the Veltins Arena. This is indeed The current official title. But the real Schalke people only recognize one name in their hearts: go to Schalke! Go to the TMD Veltins Arena!"

   "Uh, well, I will pay attention in the future." Zhou Tiancheng saw that Hevedes had begun to swear at his mother, and could only compromise. At the same time, he sighed in his heart, it seems that it is not so simple to truly integrate into this team.

However, when Zhou Tiancheng was sitting in the stands, he had to admit that the design of the Schalke Stadium is very affinity, fully considering the fans' viewing experience, neither suppressing nor feeling of emptiness, a retractable ceiling and eyes in front of him The only movable lawn in Europe, it always feels fresh.

  The attendance rate of the Youth League is not particularly high. To pay attention to the audience of the Youth League, mainly the relatives and friends of the players of the two sides, as well as some reporters who specialize in the youth football sector, picked up the camera and are taking some photos.

   The game scene is the same as the third place competition of all sizes, both sides do not pay special attention to it, so they are very open. It was only in the first half hour that the two teams scored four goals together, led by each alternately and then tied. The score soon came to 2:2.

  Zhou Tiancheng was in the stands. The most direct feeling was the same as when he first played against Schalke U19 that day. The biggest difference between a professional field, even a youth team, and a college amateur field is actually the speed of the offensive and defensive transition. Regardless of whether it is Schalke U19 or Stuttgart U19, the consciousness of quick play and anti-robbing on the spot after breaking the ball is strong. Unlike college players, the first thing to think about after taking the ball is to pass the ball first.

  In short, this is the tactical literacy gap.

   Actually, watching the two sides confront each other, Zhou Tiancheng still learned something. It's not how to deal with the ball, but how to deal with the ball in the professional field more quickly and easily. These consciousness level things cannot be obtained by the system, they can only comprehend themselves.

  ……

   In the end, after a scoring battle between the two sides, Schalke U19 with the 87th minute lore 4:3 Rixtugart U19, although everyone's interest is not high, but how to win a good ending.

   Next, the U19 echelon only needs to watch the last round of the first team at home tomorrow, and everyone can enter the holiday. This is also a unified arrangement for the club. The final round of the home game against Bielefeld will determine whether Schalke 04 can successfully reverse Stuttgart to claim the Bundesliga title, a game that will determine the world. The club naturally tries its best to create a home atmosphere. This is Schalke 04's closest chance to the Bundesliga title since winning in 1958.

  After returning from the competition field, Zhou Tiancheng took the time to go to the training ground next to him and glanced at Jiang Hao, who was undergoing the club's trial training alone.

  ……

   "Hiroko, how about it, can't you eat it?"

   Jiang Hao answered very confidently: "It's okay. I didn't get used to it for the first two days. Now, that's how it is."

   "Yoah! Looks like it's a great grasp, sure you can?"

"That's necessary, you have to go directly to the team. I can only gritt my buddies, but it doesn't work either. But the coach said that he had to hit the iron and investigate me again for a few days, and wait for them to make a decision before letting me go, fucking! Brother, wait for me, wait for me to finish, let's go back together."

  Zhou Tiancheng replied: "You don’t have to worry, I’m not going to go home this holiday. UU reading www.uukanshu.com"

  Jiang Hao suddenly surprised; "Don't go back? Brother Cheng, you stay here, can the sister-in-law agree?"

  Zhou Tiancheng shrugged: "That's no way. I'm so much worse than other people who started to receive professional training at a very young age. I can't help but wait for the rolls to go away?"

Jiang Hao suddenly looked depressed: "Brother, don't fight this way! You don't know me? The first training class you will stun everyone in the world. The physical performance is cruel and crushes the whole team. Can’t be so self-willed, always thinking about taking the path of others.”

  Zhou Tiancheng stared at him and asked, "How do I compare with the first team? Hako, you tell me the truth, do you want to join the first team in the future?"

   "Of course!" Jiang Hao blurted out without thinking.

  Zhou Tiancheng immediately said: "If you really have such an idea, I suggest you don't go back this month, we two are actually half a catty, we must learn to fly stupid bird first..."

   "Hey, who is stupid." Jiang Hao interrupted Zhou Tiancheng.

  Zhou Tiancheng immediately changed his mouth: "Well, you are not a stupid bird, we are all smart birds. But smart birds also have to learn to fly first. Have you heard of the turtle-rabbit race?"

  Jiang Hao nodded, this story is almost a household name. Zhou Tiancheng made such a call, he immediately said: "Brother Cheng, I understand what you mean."

  Zhou Tiancheng smiled: "That's good, but our goal is the first team, we must seize the time to expand and the advantages of this group of people. If the smart bird is more diligent, it will be easy to stand out from the crowd..."

  PS: Discuss something.

  Before the shelves, I changed it every Saturday and two times at other times. Xiao Li was still in college and usually had to take classes and code words. Allow me to take a holiday on Saturday, OK?

   So... today is more. Long live understanding.
