I Just Can Score

The last game between Newcastle United and Manchester United had a great impact on Michael Owen. He thought he had seen through Zhen Shaolong and found the right way to accumulate luck.

He's trying to do it, trying to feel it.

Now is certainly not the time to accumulate luck. Irving believes that closing your eyes continuously will only have an effect during a game, but you can experience it before. The method that can accumulate luck and produce effects will definitely have some effect on weekdays, right?

Owen wasn't sure.

When he sat cross-legged and closed his eyes continuously, he found that this action could relax his mind. When he opened his eyes again, his whole body became very relaxed and his brain seemed to become more flexible.

"right!"

"That's what it feels like!"

"If you get to the competition field, even if you can't accumulate luck, it will definitely help you get into better shape!"

Owen was a little unsure before, but after experiencing the feeling of closing his eyes continuously, he was convinced of it.

at the same time.

Manchester United's morning training is about to begin.

Most of the Manchester United players are still very positive, and many players arrived earlier, but one figure is very special, and that is the main forward Wayne Rooney.

Rooney usually comes to the training ground on time. He is not a very active player.

Today is different.

Rooney even arrived more than half an hour early, which was the time to come to the training ground. After arriving at the training ground, he found goalkeeper Kuszak and did shooting training together.

The last game had a great impact on Rooney. He discovered that shooting can be so accurate, and as long as his shooting ability reaches its peak, it doesn't matter if it is worse in other aspects.

Look at Newcastle United’s number 13!

Whether it is physical, technical or experience, none of the opponents is particularly outstanding. The most outstanding one can be said to be shooting. In the past, similar players were not looked down upon by Rooney. He believes that comprehensive ability is the most important. No matter how accurate the shooting, There is no chance and no way to perform at all.

Now Rooney's view has changed dramatically.

In English football,

As for European football and world football, anyone who says that the opponent's No. 13 is not performing well is really a guy with a brain problem.

The goal data proves it all!

For forward players, scoring goals is the most important thing. As long as they can score the ball, it doesn't matter whether they are skilled or not, physical or not.

Rooney also became determined. He decided to train hard and work hard to improve his shooting skills. Even if he couldn't keep up with the opponent's No. 13, he still had to make some progress.

That kind of effort was seen in Kuszak's eyes. Kuszak watched the last game on the bench and had some understanding of Rooney's approach. He encouraged Rooney and said, "If he can do it, you can do it too." arrive!"

"Wayne, come on!"

"As long as you are interested, I will train with you every day!"

Rooney was very moved by Kuszak's statement. He quickly said, "Thank you, thank you" and then continued to devote himself to continuous shooting training.

This is a tedious process.

The most unbearable thing is that continuous training cannot see improvement. Basic training is almost impossible to produce results in a short period of time. Every star's skills can be said to have been developed after several years or more than ten years. Years of training.

Therefore, before the age of 20, the efforts made in adolescence and youth play a decisive and key role in a player's future growth.

On the contrary, after becoming a professional player, most of the time has to be devoted to competition and recovery. There is no time for personal training, and the ability is also limited by the body. Apart from game experience, there will be no improvement.

Every professional player knows this.

Of course, Rooney is also very aware that after shooting continuously for a period of time, he feels that he has no motivation.

"What's the use of trying so hard?"

"A waste of energy!"

I don't know when, Ferdinand stood next to Rooney and after Rooney completed a shot, Ferdinand suddenly smiled and said, "Wayne, I have something to share with you. It has something to do with the last game."

Ferdinand looked mysterious and whispered in Rooney's ear, "I discovered the secret of No. 13's good performance!"

"ah?"

"Do you listen to me?" Ferdinand asked.

Rooney was out of breath and froze for a while, shook his head and continued to do his training. He felt that Ferdinand was just teasing him. He also looked mysterious, so he just ignored it when encountering this kind of thing.

Ferdinand was not angry either.

He walked away.

Before walking away, Ferdinand left a message, "Okay, I know you don't believe it, so what I said is true. Come to me whenever you are interested!"

morning.

Manchester United conducted normal training. Ferguson and the Manchester United coaching staff had very strict training requirements. Everyone knew that Ferguson was in a bad mood because Manchester United had just suffered a big defeat, even a humiliating bloodbath.

So every player acted very seriously, and they didn't want Ferguson to vent his anger on themselves.

Rooney is one of them.

During free training time, Rooney was doing personal shooting training, but he only kicked two or three kicks before he couldn't help but wave to Ferdinand, "Leo!"

Ferdinand walked over with a smile.

Rooney couldn't help but ask, "What on earth were you talking about this morning? What a mystery!"

Ferdinand smiled confidently, "I knew you would definitely come to me, but what I said is true. In the last game, although I didn't guard the opponent, I observed him carefully and roughly guessed him. Reasons for doing well.”

"Talk about it."

"You can try to do it my way!" Ferdinand became very careful. He leaned close to Rooney's ear and kept observing the surroundings. "I have already summarized it. The first thing you have to do is close your eyes. Think carefully about where the goal is.”

"This is the first step of training!"

"If you can achieve that, no matter where you stand on the court, you can instantly determine the specific location of the goal in your mind... For example, if you are standing in the penalty area, you don't need to look at the goal, you can hit the ball with your head down. Enter, and you have completed the first step..."

Rooney was dumbfounded. He felt like he was listening to magic content, but if he thought about it carefully, what Ferdinand said might actually work!

Newcastle United's matches in March begin with the FA Cup.

March 2nd.

Newcastle United play Preston away.

Playing against a Championship team was easy even on the road, but Newcastle United encountered trouble. Preston's defense was very tight. Newcastle United failed to score a goal in 70 minutes. Allardi Si couldn't bear it and finally sent Zhen Shaolong on the field, but it was not Zhen Shaolong who scored the goal. He encountered a very tight defense. Could it be that Martins took the opportunity to find an opportunity and successfully sent the ball into the Preston goal.

Relying on Martins' goal, Newcastle United defeated Breston United with one goal and successfully advanced to the next round of the FA Cup.

Three days later.

The twenty-eighth round of the Premier League begins, and Newcastle United welcomes Blackburn Rovers at home.

In the eyes of many media, there is no suspense in the game. Newcastle United performed very strongly at home and beat Manchester United in the last round, so it is naturally impossible to lose to Blackburn.

The media's predictions are actually somewhat optimistic.

Newcastle United's lineup is still lacking, and the defense is greatly affected. On the offensive end, Owen has returned to team training, but is still recovering from injury and cannot play for the team.

Zhen Shaolong is partnered with Martins. Martins's technical ability is still worse than that of Irving, and it is difficult for him to score goals by relying on his personal ability.

Zhen Shaolong was tightly guarded.

Blackburn plays intensive defense. They keep the penalty area airtight. The midfield line and the back line are superimposed, and the offense relies on the two forwards.

This style of play sounds like giving up offense, but Blancburn is considered to be one of the teams with the strongest forward capabilities, and can even be said to be as good as any other team.

Blackburn's strike partner is McCarthy and Santa Cruz.

McCarthy, who has experience and stable efficiency, won't talk much.

After Santa Cruz came to the Premier League, he showed the same adaptability as Torres. He ranked fifth in the Premier League scorer list, and the number of goals can almost represent his status.

In the 37th minute of the game, Blackburn ushered in a goal. Taking advantage of a counterattack, McCarthy passed a diagonal pass to Santa Cruz. The latter dribbled the ball past Taylor and accurately sent the ball into the bottom corner.

Blackburn's lead lasted 30 minutes.

In the 69th minute of the game, Newcastle United equalized the score. It was Zhen Shaolong who scored the goal. He was very tightly defended and had two players around him for a long time, but he still found a good opportunity, fifteen minutes from the goal on the right side of the penalty area. From Mi's position, he took advantage of a bouncing overhead shot and hoisted the ball directly into the far corner.

1 to 1!

This score lasted until the 85th minute. When the time reached the final stage, the game became less intense because Blackburn defended almost all the way and McCarthy was replaced.

Faced with such a tortoise-level defense, Newcastle United had no good solution.

Fans and media in the stands all around felt that the game would end 1-1, because it was almost impossible for Newcastle United to make a good chance in a short period of time.

That requires improvisation and a certain amount of luck.

Zhen Shaolong didn't give up. Just because others couldn't do anything, it didn't mean that he didn't have a way. The active effect of "Archery" had not been used yet. He was just hesitant to use it.

The effect is a goal.

As long as it is actively used, it can help the team defeat Blackburn, but the game is just an ordinary league, and the use of skills seems to be a waste.

After Zhen Shaolong considered it carefully, he decided to use it because Newcastle United did not have other major competitions to play.

The league is the most important thing.

Not using skills is a waste. It can help the team get one more victory and two more points, which can be said to be worth it.
