Football: Starting from the Ronaldinho template

Chapter 39 The Painful End of September for Chinese Fans

"We didn't play well enough in the first half, especially in the passing and cutting in the midfield. Don't give the opponent time to react, you must be fast enough!"

"Also, Bundesliga teams are now starting to consciously defend Qin, often using zonal defense and man-to-man marking, with at least two players on the field at the same time."

"Qin, I know you have extraordinary confidence and ability, but the best option at this time is to pass the ball, especially a large-scale lateral transfer, which can often change the score in one go."

Dieter Heijin's serious face revealed caution.

Young people today are different from those in the past. Those with talent must be treated as treasures, otherwise they will just leave and go to other teams.

Isn’t Pogba a living example?
"Boss, I know I've been studying with Kevin lately, so I might not see any results for now, but I'll try my best to change."

Qin Ming made a promise.

He also knows that it is almost impossible for him to achieve Ronaldinho's status in Barcelona.

Because Wolfsburg's tactics are essentially pragmatic.

Everything must give way to the whole, to the ultimate victory.

Thinking of this, Qin Ming had an idea, that is, his future is definitely not in Wolfsburg.

And in a place where you can express yourself and play beautiful football.

But those are too far away.

He now just wants to keep his feet on the ground, quickly improve his competitive strength, and enjoy the fun that football brings.

After the start of the second half, Werder Bremen shifted more defensive resources to the right side in order to limit Qin Ming and Rodriguez.

The two were unable to break through this strong blockade.

But De Bruyne had an easier environment to handle the ball, and he played very well with Caligiuri who came on as a substitute.

In the 76th minute of the game, De Bruyne made a straight pass and Caligiuri scored from a small angle.

2-0!

Then Qin Ming was replaced by Perisic. To be honest, he was somewhat dissatisfied because he felt that he was in good shape and could play the full 90 minutes.

However, he also knew that his team was leading by two goals, and Dieter Hecking was right to let Perisic play to find his form, from the perspective of the head coach.

In the end, the score remained unchanged until the end of the game.

Perisic felt a little uncomfortable after returning to the court, mainly in terms of confrontation, speed and rhythm.

But Wolfsburg fans are still very happy.

Because their already strong left side will be even stronger with Perisic's return.

After the game, reporters asked Dieter Hecking why he never let Qin Ming attend.

"Minors are not obliged to attend press conferences, and the club will not ask Qin to attend similar events."

At the end of September, Chinese football was both painful and happy.

The good news is that Qin Ming is making rapid progress, which gives them great hope for the future.

The painful one was the 2014 Asian Games held in Incheon, South Korea.

Although the Chinese men's Olympic team lost 0-3 to North Korea in the first match, and narrowly defeated Pakistan 1-0 in the second match to qualify for the group stage, they still lost 0-2 in the quarterfinals against Thailand with one less player, and ultimately failed to reach the quarterfinals.

As for the women's football team, due to having a smaller goal difference than Japan in the group stage, they could only qualify as the second in the group. In the quarter-finals, they met their old rival North Korea and lost 0-1, missing the Asian Games semi-finals for the first time in history.

Naturally, Chinese fans feel unwilling to give up. They have thought countless times that if Qin Ming was in the National Olympic Team, would they be able to reach the end and touch the golden championship medal?

But they also know that the past is the past, and no matter how much they fantasize, they cannot change history.

All they can do is look forward to the future. In the U19 Asian Youth Football Championship that will begin in October, the Chinese National Youth Team is in the group of death with Japan, South Korea and North Korea.

During this period, there were fans who suggested that the National Youth Team recruit Qin Ming to go with them.

But he was immediately criticized by other fans and deleted his account.

Let the Bundesliga starting players play in the Asian Championship?
And it comes at a critical moment when Perisic returns and Wolfsburg needs to fight for points.

This is absolutely an extremely stupid suggestion.

Later, the public opinion was so strong that Perrin came out to explain that neither the National Olympic Team nor the National Youth Team had any plans to recruit Qin Ming to return to the country to compete.

They all hope that Qin Ming can stay in the Bundesliga, gain more game experience and grow while he is still young, and at the same time secure his starting position.

After entering October, another piece of news in the football world attracted people's attention.

The 40-person list of nominees for the 2014 Golden Boy Award has been released.

The Golden Boy Award was founded by the Italian newspaper Turin Sports in 2003.

The award is voted on by major European media to select the best young player of the year and is also considered a rite of passage for young rookies.

The nominees must be young players under the age of 21 playing for European clubs.

The first Golden Boy winner was the Dutch genius Rafael van der Vaart, who was known as Cruyff II at the time.

But in the past few years, the Golden Boy Award seems to have become a curse.

Pato, Balotelli and others have demonstrated what it means to be a poor performer.

As for last year's Golden Boy Award winner Pogba, he is currently playing very well for Juventus and won the Serie A championship last season.

But he is actually a weirdo.

On May 5, 2013, he was banned for three matches by Serie A for spitting in a defender's face.

Qin Ming looked at the list of candidates for this year's Golden Boy Award.
Calhanoglu, Stones, Luke Shaw, Sterling and others.

"Dorigi? Lille's center forward, is he also selected?"

After seeing this, Qin Ming remembered that Wolfsburg’s next opponent in the Europa League would be Lille, where Origi plays.

It seems that fate wants me to compete with all the Golden Boy Award candidates?

Unfortunately, he can't run for the draft this year and will have to wait until next season.

During the training before the start of the Europa League, Qin Ming also witnessed Perisic's strengths and found that there were indeed many things worth learning from him.

It’s just that he won’t change his technical characteristics easily, because he believes that playing to his strengths and avoiding his weaknesses is the right approach.

As for the competition between the two.

It can only be described in four words: aboveboard.

In fact, the professional football circle is not that dark, at least there are not too many schemes between players.

To put it bluntly, none of us have a high level of education, so what vicious methods can we come up with?
Moreover, competitive sports respect strength. If you only try to be clever, you won’t get far, or even go far at all.

And Qin Ming's attention is not limited to the left winger.

The No. 10 position is the future goal he set for himself, so he is like a sponge, madly absorbing the excellent experience of his teammates.

Especially De Bruyne, generally speaking, those who are cheated on are honest people, so he was very willing to share his knowledge with Qin Ming during the conversation.

During this period of time, the relationship between the two people quickly became closer, from ordinary friends to good friends who could talk about anything.
