Chapter 207 Old Pinto’s Musical Dream

Coach Staller Solbakken learned from Mourinho's tactics and combined them with his team's usual defensive counterattacks, so that all Barcelona's attacks in the first twenty minutes came to nothing. The only threat was David Bee. Leah's pocket shot from the waistline of the penalty area hit the lintel.

Calabash's hands and feet felt cold. He seemed to have kicked more doorframes in the past two months than in the previous ten years combined.

Copenhagen's forward line is the most standard configuration of one high and one fast for anti-counterattack teams. The 190cm Senegalese forward Dame Ndoye has vaguely looked like the first striker in the Danish Super League and has a strong scoring ability. His partner, Brazilian Cesar Santin, is extremely fast, and his foot skills are also standard for Brazilian offensive players.

In the 26th minute, Barcelona suppressed the pass in the half and failed to pose a threat. Copenhagen captain Quest took the ball in the midfield and launched a counterattack. The moment he caught the ball, there were 22 people on both sides except Barcelona goalkeeper Jose Pinto, and there was no one else on the center line.

Cesar Santin stepped on the center line and stood out. Barcelona's full-backs Abidal and Alves were still pressed in front of the opponent's penalty area and did not come back. Pique and Puyol waited until they turned around and were already dumped by Santin. Go out four or five meters away. The distance from the center line to the penalty area seems very long, but it is actually just a matter of a few long steps. Let alone a fast horse, even players who are generally not known for their speed will basically have to rely on the forward to catch up.

Santin and Ndoye were like two wild wild horses. In an instant, they were heading towards the Barcelona penalty area. Between them were the panicked Puyol and Pique. The four of them ran in a trumpet shape and smoke billowed. Auntie Xiaojie is a speaker. Others watched from afar, unable to catch up.

Due to the ball-first defensive principle, the Prussian team and Pique could only desperately pursue Santing who was dribbling the ball forward. Ndoye, who was also advancing at the same time on the other side, could no longer care about it. In fact, it was impossible for Pupi and the two to catch even Santing. They were just doing their best, otherwise it would be very shameful to just open their eyes and watch.

Two seconds later, Santin rushed to the outside of Barcelona's penalty area with the ball. Pupi and two were approaching from behind, and Pinto in front had already abandoned the goal. Such a simple routine is difficult for even the Chinese team to miss. As long as Santing passes the football to Ndoye on the other side, it will be an almost empty goal opportunity. Pinto can't do anything even if he has three heads and six arms.

Of course, the 35-year-old Jose Pinto cannot have three heads and six arms. He is not a squid. In fact, if you really want to talk about goalkeeping talent, there will be very few people in the football world who can surpass Pinto. However, in his almost 20-year career, he only played as the main player for three seasons during the Celta Vigo period. Time has always been a two-door thing, neither increasing nor decreasing nor competing for it.

The reason why Pinto failed to become a top goalkeeper was that he was absent-minded. Football was not his most passionate hobby. He spent far more energy on music than on polishing his goalkeeping skills.

Jose Pinto has a bachelor's degree in sound engineering and a master's degree in music production. He is a very qualified pop music producer.

Pinto has his own band and a dedicated music studio. Although he has not yet gained any fame, his ideal has always been in pop music.

In fact, playing music is quite hard. There are many more grass-roots bands than football clubs at all levels combined, but the number of people who can get ahead is very rare, and the opportunities are much less than in football.

Moreover, playing pop music is very expensive. Even if you want to work as a music migrant worker, you must at least have similar equipment. Pinto and his team cannot work as migrant workers;

He doesn't have the time to work hard and can't lose his position. The studio has been relying on Pinto's salary for playing football these years.

Opportunity is important no matter what you do, and so is pop music. If Jenna Pence and her Green Wind Band hadn't met Zhuo Yang by chance that year, they would probably still be a wandering bar band selling songs, or even disappear.

Every day in this world, countless bands disband and disappear, and more musicians with dreams join in. It is not uncommon for anyone to become a passer-by in the waves, and those who have had their dreams shattered early and go back to move bricks are not necessarily better than What is the difference between the level of the king and the queen?

Opportunity is a key. When you open this door, you will reach the golden road to the sky. Without this key, you can only grope outside the door forever. When you get older, you will recall the dreams you chased when you were young. A sigh will tell all the stories. .

In 2004, Pinto and his studio had an opportunity. Their production was appreciated by an executive of the pop music giant Warner. This opportunity did not come out of thin air. It took Pinto many years to maintain it. connections. For this opportunity, he invested in this production at all costs, because success depends on this.

Jose Pinto was already planning to retire at that time. Once he signed with Warner, he would fully start his beloved music life. But at the last moment, Warner released Pinto's pigeon, and people had a better choice.

The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. This setback almost destroyed Pinto's musical dream, for which he had invested so much effort. Perhaps it was years of football training that gave Pinto strength. He eventually came through and continued his music, looking for the next opportunity again.

This blow also made Pinto start taking his football seriously, because he had to earn wages to maintain his dream. In the next three seasons, the focused Pinto occupied the main goalkeeper position of Celta Vigo and also revealed his talent in the art of goalkeeping.

But after all, football is Pinto's job to support his family, not a professional interest. His favorite football goalkeeper is the substitute goalkeeper, because he earns a lot of money even though he does less work.

In the winter transfer window of 2008, Pinto got his wish. Because substitute goalkeeper Albert Holkera ruptured his cruciate ligament in training, Barcelona bought Pinto from Celta Vigo who had been relegated to the second division. Since then, he has become The carefree Barcelona second goal.

There seems to be a curse on Barcelona's second goal these years. From Enke to the Turk Rustu to Horlak, several people have had a hard time and have very bad luck. It was not until Pinto came that this nightmare seemed to be shattered. , he is safe and happy, and Barcelona is thriving.

José Pinto’s best friend in Barcelona is Messi. Unexpected, right? Although Messi's best friend may not be Pinto, the two have a good personal relationship. The person Pinto dislikes the most in the team is naturally Zhuoyang. Zhuoyang knows it, but he no longer cares.

.

Jose Pinto is a musician at heart, and goalkeeping is just his side job. Faced with Copenhagen's tough head coach and the Brazilian striker Santin who is already threatening to force him into a palace, the musician Pinto is the old goblin who doesn't play by the rules.
