Chapter 21 Free Kick, the Chance Has Come!
In the locker room.
The players of Real Madrid B team walked into the room one after another with unhappy looks on their faces.
Some even threw their water bottles on the ground in anger.
"Damn! Their iron bucket formation is disgusting! There is no chance at all!"
"Is that all they can do?"
"They dare not confront us head-on. They played like turtles in the friendly match. It's really annoying!"
All the players sat in the seats with their numbers printed on them.
The first half of the game was played in a cowardly way!
Everyone was holding back a lot of energy in their hearts, but it was like a punch on cotton, and they couldn't release it at all!
Just as they were arguing and arguing, Zidane walked in with his hands in his pockets.
He looked calm and didn't show too much anger at their performance.
First of all, this was just a friendly match.
Secondly, they were really unlucky today. Many of their shots hit the goal frame or the goal post.
From the overall situation, there was no big problem. It was just a mistake that caused the goal to be lost. It was a normal situation.
I can only say that the opponent's ability to seize opportunities was too strong.
"Quiet!"
"Shut up."
No one dared to say anything after Zidane spoke.
In this team, Zidane is the real boss.
Everyone looked at the coach intently.
Zidane pulled a whiteboard from the side with an eraser and a marker on it.
On the whiteboard, a tactical map of the stadium was drawn, and the position of each player was clearly visible.
In this game, Real Madrid B adopted a 433 tactic, focusing on a high-position pressing and two-wing flying.
"Rodriguez, when you get the ball on the court, if you reach this position, you must look up and find Hermoso!"
"If someone comes to grab it, you can turn around, there is Vasquez behind you."
"Bai Ran, Bai Ran come here!"
Listening to Zidane's explanation of tactics, Bai Ran felt that he was an outsider, and the purpose of coming was to feel the scene of the game.
He never thought that Zidane would put himself in the tactics.
So Bai Ran was stunned for a moment.
"Me?"
Zidane paused and said coldly: "Is there no Bai Ran in our team?"
Bai Ran couldn't help but feel embarrassed when he heard it, and hurried over.
"You will play right winger in the second half."
"When you feel that the opponent is going to confront you physically, pass the ball! Remember! You must pass the ball quickly!"
"Try to reduce the dribbling time, and always look for Gomez forward, he will run in front!"
"Campuzano sometimes retreats to overlap with you. When he retreats to get the ball, you have to run forward, attract defense, and tear open the gap!"
Although these tactical concepts and accusations are familiar to Bai Ran, this is the first time this task has been handed to him, and he suddenly feels a little confused.
Zidane spoke very quickly, and he said a lot of things. All he could do was try to remember them.
After saying a lot, the players were ready to regroup and play the game.
At this time, Zidane left Bai Ran alone.
Holding Bai Ran's back, Zidane spoke earnestly.
"I don't have any high expectations of you. Just do your best as I said just now."
"But you must remember the following points."
"Use your advantages and pass the ball more!"
"Don't dribble the ball randomly, and you don't need to shoot, let alone defend. Avoid physical confrontation. Understand?"
Bai Ran nodded. Was he so bad...
"Okay, go on the court!"
The second half of the game is about to begin!
Bai Ran, wearing the No. 37 jersey of Real Madrid B and white sneakers, stepped onto the familiar green field.
After being reborn, this is the first time he has played in a game with so many spectators, and he can't hide his excitement.
This feeling is like a lifetime ago!
The passion in my heart is back again.
"Bai Ran! It's Bai Ran!"
"Bai Ran is on the court!"
In the stands, the fans from China who came from afar were excited to see Bai Ran on the court!
They waved their flags desperately to cheer for Bai Ran!
"Bai Ran! Come on!"
Bai Ran also saw this scene, and thought to himself that this is what it feels like to have someone supporting you!
The shouts of the fans really give players great strength! Today he finally felt it!
With the referee's whistle, the second half of the game began!
Although the players of Real Madrid B team listened to Zidane's updated tactics, their offensive firepower became more fierce and their mistakes became much less, but they still didn't have a good chance.
Especially after Bai Ran came on the court, the midfielder became more cautious in passing the ball.
After all, it was easy to lose the ball when it reached his feet, so his teammates tried not to pass him the ball that was more difficult to handle.
For a full ten minutes, Bai Ran only kicked a few safety kicks and didn't play anything else.
"This won't work!"
Bai Ran was anxious. If this trend continued, he would definitely lose the game.
Snap! The ball was passed to Bai Ran's feet.
At this moment, he remembered the coach's advice!
Avoid physical confrontation, play to your strengths, and pass more!
Bai Ran, whose passing attribute has reached 64, made a wonderful pass and passed the ball through the gap between people! And it was very accurate, and my teammates received it very comfortably.
Good shot!
Even Zidane on the sidelines was amazed at how well the ball was passed!
There was a vast space in front of Gomez.
Go!
Gomez whipped his horse and, relying on his speed advantage, rushed out with the ball.
"Ah!"
Unexpectedly, the opponent's central defender who came from the middle to make up for the situation saw that something was wrong and flew directly to make a tackle!
Gomez picked up the ball and passed the opponent, but the ball did not pass the opponent, and the opponent directly knocked Gomez down!
"Ah! Sorry, are you okay?"
The central defender also realized that his action was too big and completely unnecessary.
But in fact, he had no ill intentions, it was completely the player's duty.
All the players came to check on the injury of Gomez lying on the ground.
At the same time, the referee also ran over and showed a yellow card to the opponent's defender!
Foul! Free kick!
Gomez lay on the ground for a while and seemed to be fine, so he was pulled up by the opponent in a friendly manner.
Free kick?
Bai Ran was immediately interested. There was a free kick opportunity at the edge of the penalty area...
"Can I take the penalty?"
Hermoso was holding the football next to him, took a deep breath, and spread his hands.
"Oscar is the first penalty taker."
The rules of the team are the rules. As the captain, even if he likes Bai Ran very much, he cannot be too partial.
But unexpectedly, Oscar came over and handed the football to Bai Ran!
"Bai Ran, you take the penalty!"
After hearing this, Bai Ran was very excited!
"Really?"
Oscar nodded, and a smile appeared on his brown skin.
"I saw the goal you scored in the training match. You should have a great feeling now. You take the penalty."
The free kick was at the right edge of the penalty area, about 20 meters away from the goal!
The referee put the ball on the ground and sprayed an arc on the inside with white foam.
And the one standing in front of the ball and preparing to take the penalty was Bai Ran!
